On this day, Chen Fu continued to collect medicine in the mountains, and in the afternoon, he came to a winding valley. The valley is bordered by cliffs on one side and mountain slopes on the other.

Chen Fu walked at the bottom of the cliff and looked up to find out if there were any medicinal herbs on the cliff. Suddenly, he heard a clanging sound in the distance, and a woman shouted: "Whore, how far can you run if you are hit by my Yuan-devouring gut-breaking knife!"

Chen Fu hurriedly ran to the hillside and squatted down in the bushes.

I saw a man running out of the bend in the valley, the man was about twenty-five years old, of medium height, with a square face, his chest was dripping with blood, he was dragging a spear backwards, and his steps were staggering. Behind him, a young woman with a single knife in her hand chased after her, the woman was dressed in green clothes and looked quite handsome.

The man suddenly gave up on his feet and fell sideways. The woman chased after him, raised a single knife in her right hand, slashed downward, and shouted, "I see how you run!"

I saw the man roll violently, just dodging the single knife, lying on his back to the sky, holding the spear with both hands, and stabbing upward. It turned out to be a trick to lure the enemy.

The woman was caught off guard, a shot hit her right shoulder, and she fell backwards with an "ah" sound, and fell to the ground with a single knife in her hand.

The man stood up, pointed the tip of his gun at the woman, and snorted: "Stinky woman, get the antidote." ”

The woman sneered: "Master sent us out this time, only to take your life, not to give an antidote." Since I am planted in your hands, I can only accept my fate, but you don't want to get the antidote. ”

The man held the spear against the woman in one hand and picked up the knife in the other. Then he threw the spear aside, put the knife on her neck with his left hand, and rummaged through her with his right hand, and sure enough, he could not find an antidote.

The man was lucky and threatened her: "Where did you hide the antidote? Hurry up and take it out, otherwise you will also taste the taste of this poisonous knife!"

The woman stiffened her neck and said, "No is nothing, and if you kill me, there is no antidote." ”

The man was extremely disappointed, and the knife pulled her right shoulder, and said astringently: "Then let you eat a knife yourself, I will see how long you can hide the antidote......" As soon as the words fell, his whole body went limp, and he sat down on the ground.

The woman staggered to her feet, then spat out a mouthful of blood and sat down again.

Both of them sat on the ground, their eyes facing each other, vomiting blood.

Chen Fu hid in the bushes, and when he saw this scene, he didn't dare to come out.

After a long time, the man saw that the woman did not take out the antidote, sighed, and asked, "Do you really not have the antidote?"

The woman gave him a blank look, did not speak, and vomited another mouthful of blood.

The man sighed a few more times and asked, "Who are you?"

The woman said, "We are from the Hundred Poison Sect, my name is Qing Jinzhi, and the two who were injured by you are my senior sisters." ”

"The three of you have followed all the way from Fuguan and chased for hundreds of miles, and what are you going to do with my life? Miss Qing, you can tell me clearly!" The man named Ying Tianchang had no more life and death hostility in his words.

Qing Jinzhi knew the power of this Yuan-devouring gut-breaking knife, and when he saw that he was going to die with him, he was also discouraged, and said faintly: "Who told you to peek at my master!"

Ying Tianchang was stunned when he heard this, and muttered, "I see! At that time, I was fighting against someone, and I was punched and knocked away, smashed through the window, and fell into your master's guest room. Who would have expected such a coincidence, just in time to meet her changing clothes!"

Then, Ying Tianchang screamed and scolded: "I told your master that it was a misunderstanding, and I also apologized to her! That stinky woman is so unrelenting, she wants to kill people, and her heart is also vicious!"

Qing Jinzhi was furious: "You say that a misunderstanding is a misunderstanding? Who believes it! When death is imminent, you dare to scold my master?"

Ying Tianchang ignored her, and said to himself: "Miss Qing, I really bumped into it by accident." My master is Jin Tingzong, and now he is working as an errand in the Su Zheng Department of the Daqian Dynasty. This time, I came out of Kyoto to handle the case, but I was attacked in Fuguan, so I had this misunderstanding. It's just that I was in a hurry at that time, and I didn't have time to explain it to your master. Your master is too cautious! Don't say that I was beaten away, even if I really peeked, it wouldn't kill people!"

Qing Jinzhi was silent, his thoughts had come to this, and this person named Ying Tianchang didn't have to lie. Since he admits his teacher's origins, his heart is above board, and he said that he was not peeking, so it should be true. In his heart, he secretly blamed the master for not figuring out the reason, so he sent three disciples to secretly chase and kill, and ended up losing both.

Ying Tianchang said again: "That stinky woman gave you a poisonous weapon, but she didn't give you an antidote, is there such a rule in the mountain gate......? Why didn't she kill me herself?"

Qing Jinzhi paused for a moment and whispered: "My master had something important to do at the time, and he couldn't go out in person, and there were only three of us nearby, so he gave me this Yuan-devouring gut-breaking knife, so let's chase it together." Ying Gongzi, the little woman hurt you, and she regrets it at this time. Fortunately, I will give you back this life now, even if it is a life for a life. ”

Ying Tian sighed: "You can't be blamed for this! You have been ordered by the teacher, and you have to obey it, and it is not your own business. Actually, if I get hit by your poisonous weapon, I will forget if I die, so why bother slashing you again!"

Ying Tianchang continued: "If it weren't for your sneak attack, I might have had the opportunity to tell the truth just now. I think Miss Qing is kind-hearted, and after listening to the truth, everyone may be able to avoid life and death, and not fall into such a field. ”

Qing Jinzhi smiled bitterly: "I am the murderer who killed you, how can I be kind?"

Ying Tianchang waved his hand: "I don't blame you, really, I don't blame you." ”

Just now, the two of them fought with their lives, but now they are poisoned and can't move, knowing that they are about to die.

When Chen Fu heard this, he thought, "These two people don't seem to be disgusting. Then he came out of the bushes and asked, "Miss Qing, what kind of poison is on your knife? Do you know what kind of medicine can be used to detoxify?"

The two of them saw a young man suddenly coming out of the bushes, they felt strange, they heard him ask like this, and they didn't understand what he was going to do, Qing Jinzhi didn't say anything, and the two stared at Chen Fu in a daze.

Chen Fu continued: "I am a medicine collector, as long as I know what kind of poison the two of you have received, it may not be hopeless. ”

Qing Jinzhi said: "It is refined by mixing the venom of the devouring insect with the broken intestine grass, and I don't know what kind of medicine is used to detoxify it." If you are poisoned by this poison, your vitality will be eroded, your intestines will be tortured, your whole body will be weak, the pain will be severe, you will vomit blood, and you will only have two hours of life. ”

Chen Fu said while thinking about it: "This gut-breaking grass can be detoxified with mussel shell grass, mussel shell grass is easy to find, and the venom of the phagogen insect can also be detoxified with gold-leaf purple heart orchid, and there is exactly one in my medicine basket." If it's just a mixture of two poisons, I don't know if it can be solved?"

Qi Zhuli's book "Biyi Materia Medica" not only records the shape and characteristics of medicinal materials, but also writes about the functions of medicinal materials, Chen Fu has long been familiar with it, so he can also prescribe the right medicine.

When the two heard him say this, they knew that there was a bit of a doorway, so they said in unison: "But with Xiao Langzhong's handling, it doesn't matter if you can't solve it, and now you can only treat a dead horse as a live horse doctor." ”

Chen Fu said: "Okay, I'll give it a try, if you can't cure the poison, don't blame me." ”

The two nodded again and again: "I don't blame you, I don't blame you, we won't blame you." ”

Chen Fu turned around and went to the hillside again, found a handful of mussel shell grass, and took out the gold-leaf purple heart orchid from the medicine basket, as well as a few auxiliary herbs. Back in the valley, he laid all the herbs on a large flat stone and pounded it with one end of the handle of the hoe. Then tear off a sleeve of his shirt, wrap the mashed herbs, squeeze out the juice and drip it into the mouths of the two people, and let them swallow it. Then chew the remaining medicine residue and apply it to the wounds of the two people.

After doing all this, Chen Fu sat quietly on the side, waiting for the results.
