Night, quiet.

God, cold.

Wind, tight.

House, small.

An old earthen house, the furnishings in the earthen house are very simple, only the earthen kang and the stove, in front of the stove a man sits on a small bench, the man holds a wine jug in his hand, but has not drunk. There was a person lying on the kang, the man fell into a deep sleep, did not make the slightest sound, there was no light in the room, and he could not see the face of the person on the kang clearly, and the silhouette seemed to be a man.

The stove burned red, the fire flashed and shone on the man's face, the wrinkles on the man's not old face were clearly visible, but it looked a little desolate, the man clenched the wine jug in his hand and glanced at the person on the kang and raised the pot and drank a heavy sip of his lips, the fire was even more vigorous, the red iron furnace emitted a dim light, half of the room was bright and dark, a few short sticks and a knife in the corner of the wall shone with a faint red light, and the liquid of unknown color in an underground wooden basin was very weird.

"Ahem..... Cough...... Ahem....... The man on the kang made a faint intermittent coughing sound, the man's expression was tight, but the cough stopped, and after a while, he coughed again, the man put the wine jug on the ground, approached the kang and took a look, but saw that the person on the kang slowly turned over half of his body but failed to turn over, the man was about to help, the man on the kang whispered a few words and fell asleep, the man was inconvenient to disturb, and sat back on the bench in front of the stove and picked up the wine jug and took another sip.

The night was quieter, the stove gradually dimmed, the man bent down to pick up the two pieces of carbon on the ground and re-added them, time passed by moment by moment, and a chill spread in the furnace fire and the dark room, and the man added fire and carbon again.

~~~~~A rooster crow woke up the man in a daze, and the man was excited, the window lattice paper was gray, and I don't know when the sky was already bright.

'Squeak', the wooden door swayed open, and a man dressed in old clothes walked in and asked in a low voice, "Haven't you woken up yet?"

The man shook his head, and the old man asked, "How many times did you vomit and pull your stomach last night?"

The man said: "I pulled it twice, vomited five times, and it stopped after the time." ”

Lao Dao sniffed the smell in the house, leaned over and glanced at the green and red liquid in the wooden basin and shook his head, the man's expression changed, and he hurriedly got up and asked, "Dao Chief, is he still saved?"

"After pouring medicine for a while, I may be able to save tonight, alas, if impermanence is not injured, he should be saved by his skills, but it is difficult to say now. ”

Lao Dao patted the man's shoulder and replied, the man sat down slowly, in fact, he didn't need to ask him to know, Lao Dao sighed and turned around and went out. After a while, a seventy-year-old woman trembled and pushed the door in, the old woman held a bowl of medicine in her hand, there was a small spoon in the bowl, the man hurriedly got up and took it, measured the temperature of the decoction with his fingers, walked over and carefully lifted the person on the kang with one hand, let it lean on his shoulder, and then free his hand, pinched the man's mouth with one hand, scooped a spoonful of decoction with the other hand and slowly fed it into the man's mouth, the decoction flowed while feeding, and the man choked the man again and again, and the decoction sprayed everywhere, the man hurriedly put down the medicine bowl, and knocked a few times on the man's back, which slowly stopped coughing。

"You men just don't know how to serve people, so let's feed him. The old woman came over, took the spoon, scooped half a spoonful and slowly went into the man's tongue, this time, the man breathed naturally and breathlessly and finally drank the medicine in, the old woman waited for a while and scooped half a spoonful of the decoction medicine and slowly went in. A bowl of soup and medicine, it took a long time to finally finish feeding.

The old woman and the man fed the man and drank the medicine, the old man came over again to replace the man, the man and the old woman went out of the house to eat and rest, and before the old man sat down, the man on the kang 'gurgling' mouth was like a spring, half-open mouth, all the decoction came out of the mouth, the nose gushed out, the old man was afraid that he would choke, and hurriedly turned his body and let him vomit on the ground, but unfortunately the decoction just fed into it was all vomited again.

Lao Dao shook his head helplessly, lit the stove, helped the man sit up, lifted the quilt, and the man was naked in front of Lao Dao. Broad back, strong muscles, this sick and unawake guy is extraordinarily strong, but this seemingly healthy body is covered with green, green, red, black spots, those spots of different colors slowly flow outward with pus, juice, bursts of foul smell make people dizzy, Lao Dao frowned, picked up a handkerchief and wiped it slowly, the handkerchief brushed, the original white handkerchief was like dipped in mud and stinky water, Lao Dao took out a handkerchief and wiped it again, and the thick juice on the person's body was wiped clean。

Lao Dao dropped his handkerchief and stretched out his finger to press on a red spot, the red spot immediately appeared a trace of blood, the man's muscles twitched twice, Lao Dao took out the handkerchief and wiped it, and then reached out to squeeze it on another red spot, the red spot squeezed and pressed Lao Dao began to squeeze the cyan spot again, this press that the cyan spot immediately cracked, and a stream of blue and purple water emerged from the breach, Lao Dao squeezed a few times, the thick water gradually thinned, and his eyes were slightly red, Lao Dao then removed his finger and squeezed another cyan spot, and it was almost noon after squeezing the cyan spotLao Dao cleaned his hands, wiped his sweat, rested for a while, and squeezed towards the green spots on the man's body, and the green sticky and shredded thick juice like paste slowly flowed out from the breach, Lao Dao squeezed it a few times, until the thick juice faded and turned from green to yellow-green.

After the green spots were squeezed, Lao Dao hesitated slightly, stretched out his finger and pressed lightly on the black half point, this finger Lao Dao did not use much strength, but 'poof' sound, the finger pierced the black spot, deep in the flesh, from the black spot along the old Dao's fingers flowed out a thick black water like ink, the black water exuded a dead smell, it was completely different from the juice flowing out of the other three spots, Lao Dao retracted his finger and wiped it, and made a mistake for a while.

With a squeak, the door swayed open, and a person dressed in black walked in. Lao Dao saw the person coming, his face was happy, and said: "Impermanence, you came just right, in this case, do you see if there is a way?" This person is impermanence, then Lao Dao is naturally the 'Tianhu Dao person', and the unconscious person lying on the kang is Liang Xie, and the man who took care of Liang Xie last night is Yu Qibai.

Yu Wuchang said: "Old guy, you are obviously bullying the blind. ”

Tianhu glared at him and shouted: "If you look at it, you can see it, what nonsense is it that everyone is dying?"

"Okay!" replied slowly, and when he got closer, he could see it vaguely, he stretched out his finger and touched the black spot a few times, and the black spot shattered with a 'poof'.

Yu Wuchang said: "Tang Xian's 'eclipse needle' seeks blood and penetrates the pulse, specializes in breaking the meridians of the human body, the person who is recruited is not only injured, but also has a headache is to destroy the body's self-healing ability, accompanied by a trace amount of arsenic can kill people, break the blood, intercept the pulse, poison a needle and three uniques, it can be described as very vicious, old guy, you can quickly heal immediately after being shot, one is your martial arts foundation, the other is that you are proficient in medical skills, and the three are also because you have only been hit by one injection, the injury is not serious, and it is really a thousand times more difficult to be like him. ”

Tianhu said: "Nonsense, this Lao Tzu knows, say something useful." ”

Yu Wuchang said: "This method is one needle and three uniques, so the skin of the person who is recruited will show emerald green, green ink, and red spots, and the less serious damage to the meridians is yellow-green, purple and green, and small red, where did the black spots on this kid's body come from?"

Tianhu said angrily: "Knowingly, the needle is not bloody, the meridians are blocked, the medicine stone does not reach the viscera, the blood is difficult to unblock, the spots turn black, acupuncture and moxibustion go down, the decoction is drunk, and the poisonous blood can be squeezed out for a while, and it will return to the original state after a while, and in a few days it will turn black, and the person will turn into black water." ”

Yu Wuchang said: "Don't worry, the little emperor and the master of the Shao League have gone to collect medicinal materials, and the girl I asked from the brothel to invite has also arrived just now." ”

Tianhu said angrily: "If you drink it, you will vomit medicinal herbs, no matter how good your mother is to use it, and what are you calling a brothel woman to do?"

He said impermanently: "The woman in the brothel is good at serving people, old fellow, don't you plan to rip off the poisonous flesh and let him try it again? When the time comes, will you serve him naked or will I serve him? ”

Tianhu said: "It's light to say, his body is weak, he has stripped his flesh and consumed blood, and the skin and flesh inside have seen the dirt and rot in large areas, only he will die faster." ”

Yu Wuchang said: "This little guts can be done into a, anyway, it's a death, let's talk about it, find some strong wine and spray it, boil the medicine and soak it in a wooden barrel and throw people into it, if you want to die, you will die, if you don't want to die, you will come back to life, who stipulates that you must die if you suffer from any injury or disease? ”

Tianhu scolded: "There is no big or small thing, what is that Taoist priest, that is your ancestor." ”

Yu Wuchang hurriedly said: "Okay...... Good...... , Master Ancestor, Master Ancestor, what are you going to ...... this kid?"

Tianhu said: "Take the knife." ”

As soon as he turned around, he wandered out, and when he came back, in addition to holding a few knives in his hands, he was followed by two women, who looked a little ...... , one person is holding a white cloth and an oil lamp in his hand, one person is holding a pot of spirits in his hand, the two women are handed over the white cloth of the spirits, the tiger takes it, and the two women settle down with the two women and leave, the two women help to hold Liang Xie, the tiger knife flies, piercing into the black spots on Liang Xie again and again, and quickly rips it off, and the carrion is all away from the knife, and the other woman first wipes off the dirty black water with a handkerchief, and then sprays the wound with spirits, and the three of them are busy for half an hour before they remove all the black spots, but Liang Xie has never woken up during this period.
