The peach blossom forest outside the world, the peach blossom fairy of a thousand trees, the cold does not know the plum, and the peach is exchanged for wine money. Outside the Peach Blossom Village is a winding stream, I don't know its beginning, no one knows where it goes, it flows through here, and the people of Peach Blossom Village have used this stream water to make peach blossoms for generations. It is a valley in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by mountains and cliffs.

Mortals can't climb with their hands, and even if they are masters of the rivers and lakes, it is difficult to climb the mountain here. The people of Taohua Village in the past generations have not heard of foreign affairs, hundreds of steps between the banks in the valley, there are no miscellaneous trees in it, the fragrant grass is delicious, and the fallen flowers are colorful. Among them, the yellow hair and drooping hair are happy.

In recent days, the villagers have noticed a strange phenomenon, that is, the stream that flows through the area, and for some reason, dead things often float out of it. In the past few days, the people of Taohua Village have not dared to drink this water, which is the lifeblood of this village. As soon as the issue of the villagers' livelihood came out, several village stewards held a meeting.

"Village Chief Huang, what do you mean by this? Why is there dead things in the stream we rely on for survival, and the situation has become more and more dense in the past two days, how can we continue like this? A white-haired old man sighed.

"It's the peach blossoms we just prepared will be ready to make wine in the next two days, but what should we do without this stream?" said another gray-clothed old man.

There were five or six people seated, all of them old men, with gray hair hanging down, but everyone was refreshed and ruddy. The person at the head looked even more childish, and his brows were also furrowed at this time. He is Huang Yizhi, the village head of Taohua Village. He is the most respected person in the village.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Old Five, you send a few young people from the village to take a trip and see what is going on!" The old man who was named did not say much, and stood up from his position. Walk outside.

There are not many people in the village, there are about 20 families, all of whom have made a living from farming, and occasionally some people will catch some fish and shrimp on the surface of the stream to use them. The people in the village did not do business, and they were mainly bartering with each other. In fact, they usually take it by themselves if they lack something, and they don't close their doors at night, and they don't leave the road behind.

The old man named Lao Wu came to the village, "Zhang Ming, Wang Sheng, you two come with me, let's go upstream to see what caused the death of the fish and shrimp in the stream in our village!" His eyes are bright, and his limbs are powerful.

"Fifth Grandpa, do you know what's going on upstream, let's go and see what's going on!" Zhang Ming said with some excitement.

The other Wang Sheng was a little shy, and he didn't speak, just stared at the fifth master and listened to his orders.

"You guy is still so impatient!" the fifth master laughed and patted Zhang Ming's shoulder casually. Then he motioned for the two to go with him. The two took two long sticks and followed the fifth master to the outside of the village.

The upper reaches of Taohua Village is a narrow valley mouth, and the mountains around this small surrounded village are like a gourd cut from the middle, and its upstream is the location of the gourd mouth, and Taohua Village is in the circular part of the lower half of the gourd. The three of them walked in the mountain stream, and walked for about half a morning before they reached the location of the gourd.

They saw a small bush beside a boulder where the stream flowed through the mouth of the gourd. At this time, a man dressed in white seemed to be stopped on the bush and floated above the water. I saw that the man's face was dark, and there were many dead fish and shrimp floating around his body.

After the three of them looked at each other, they realized that they had found the root cause. After Zhang Ming took a few steps back, he ran forward with all his might. After that, jump hard. The body crossed an arc in the air and landed on a boulder more than ten meters away from the shore. , stretched out the wooden stick in his hand, reached out to the side of the man in white, and passed through the collar. Remove it from the water. Throw it to the shore.

"Pick it up, Fifth Grandpa!"

"You little rabbit cub, you want to crush the old man to death!" the fifth master scolded, and then took the wooden stick in Wang Sheng's hand, and the stick must have touched the man in white, and then pulled it back, and the man in white was unloaded to the ground close to the wooden stick.

"Is this person poisoned?" asked Wang Sheng aloud.

"Well, it's obviously a peerless poison. It is estimated that it has been ..... Hey, he's still alive, and judging by how much he's been immersed in the water, it's been at least three or four days. It's still alive!" The fifth master was a little surprised, and secretly sighed that this person's vitality was tenacious.

"Fifth Grandpa, do you see anything?" asked Zhang Ming, who had already returned, a little impatiently.

"I only know that he is poisoned, a rare poison, and it is not one, you see that his complexion is black and there are some blue spots on it, in addition to a poison called 'carrion poison', there are already corpse spots on the back of his right palm, and the poisoning is not shallow, but since he can survive for so long, this person must not be an ordinary person. The fifth master said.

"Oh, since this person is so good, how can he still be poisoned, I don't know how he got in, could it be that someone pushed him down from the top of the mountain?" Zhang Ming said in amazement.

"It's not impossible. "The fifth master stroked his beard and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Then what should we do with this person next?" Wang Sheng saw that they had been discussing those who had not had it, and his heart was a little anxious. The top priority should be to save people.

"You're right, let's take him back to the village and let the village chief see what to do!"

Zhang Ming and the others nodded yes, and then Zhang Ming stretched out his hand to pull up the man in white, but was beaten off by the fifth master's stick.

"What are you doing, Fifth Grandpa, what are you doing beating me!" Zhang Ming asked a little puzzled.

"Do you want to be like those dead fish and shrimp? Hurry up, go find some Teng Man, and put these two sticks together. Carry him back!" said the fifth master.

After Zhang Ming was beaten, he scratched his head a little embarrassed, and took Wang Sheng to look for Teng Man. It didn't take long to find enough Tengman, and the two skillfully braided it on two wooden sticks, and finally used one of them to pick up the man in white. On top of Teng Man, the three of them walked back.

Today is an unusual day for the children of Peach Blossom Village. In the morning, they go to the peach grove early in the morning to pick up peach blossoms, and only at noon do they pick up enough peach blossoms. Later, I heard that Brother Zhang Ming and Brother Wang Sheng brought back an outsider from upstream.

They had never seen anyone from the outside world, and they couldn't help but feel a little lost after seeing the man in white. Are people from the outside world so dark and ugly? In comparison, it is still Lin Ermao's native dog, which is more beautiful. After a few onlookers were dispersed by a few adults. On a table in the makeshift hall of the village chief's house, the man in white was placed on it. There are two swords, one long and one short, beside him.

"The long sword is 'Qingxuan', this is a peerless sword that moved the rivers and lakes hundreds of years ago! That short sword has never been seen! At the beginning, it was said that the 'Qingxuan Sword' was in the hands of a loose person, and he was low-key and not very famous. Then it disappeared for some reason. This person's age is clearly incompatible. The dagger was a rare weapon. The people who have these two swords are definitely not ordinary people in the rivers and lakes!" said the village head, Huang Yizhi, after inspecting it.

"When Zhang Ming and I fished him up, we found the sword behind his back, but we didn't find that he still had a sword hidden in his sleeve, which is really magical. The fifth master looked at the short sword with some curiosity.

"You guys are endless! Why are you studying that murderous weapon, should you think about how to save people?" It was an old woman who spoke, not young, and her temper was not small. I saw the old woman talking. Huang Yi and the others were a little embarrassed.

Huang Yizhi said. "We have the highest medical skills in Peach Blossom Village, and on weekdays, the people and animals in the village are sick and look for you to get rid of the disease, and we don't know medical skills, so we will give him full authority to you!" Huang Yizhi said to the old woman.

"If you had known that, you should have taken him directly to me, instead of wasting time here!" said the old woman, and threw the door away.

Leaving a group of old men looking at each other. In the end, it was Zhang Ming and Wang Sheng who carried it over to the old woman.

After letting the onlookers disperse, the old woman smiled bitterly in her heart, "I have healed those cats and dogs on weekdays, and I haven't even prepared better medicines, and I don't know if the original medical skills can still come in handy." ”

After putting on anti-gas gloves and removing the man's clothes, he carefully examined them, and the more he looked at his face, the more solemn he became. There are a total of thirteen peerless poisons, and any one of them can kill people instantly, but this person's physique is very good, and his internal cultivation is good. Coupled with some luck and several drugs to restrain each other, he has not died yet. Picked up a porcelain bottle in his arms and opened a medicine everywhere. Place it on the tip of your nose and smell it gently. The complexion changed dramatically.

"Bloodborne Pill!"

looked at the man lying on the couch with a different face, and slowly put away the pill. Put it back and continue to check him.

After the inspection, he pushed the door open, only to find Zhang Ming and Wang Sheng standing outside. "Aunt Yao, I wonder if that little brother can be saved?" the two asked in unison.

The old woman sighed and said, "It's a miracle that he's not dead yet, but I'll still try." No, I'll do my best to save him, because there's something I want to know. The two of you go to my medicine garden and help me get some medicine and come back. In addition, you take the list and go to the village chief and show it to him, and he will naturally give you something. With that, he turned and went back into the house.

Night is approaching, the old woman stands in the courtyard and looks up at the sky, the sky is full of stars, and the bright moon is the head. Time doesn't seem to be anything to it. But people are really fragile and tight, the time is fleeting, and the light and shadow are like songs. A song is coming to an end, and a song is coming back. The heroes and heroes in the rivers and lakes are like carp crossing the river, and they don't know when they will be exhausted by the waves. After a moment's turn, some people have disappeared into the long river of history. Nothing was left, except for a few words from the history books.

That's your whole life, it's sad and ridiculous!
