Chapter VII: House Arrest
"Go down, all of you. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Dawu said briefly to everyone. After everyone left, the great witch got busy, he first picked out a few jars from a pile of bottles and cans, poured out some black powder into the small black bowl, and then brought a few cages containing strangely colored poisonous snakes, he took out the venom from the snake's teeth and poured it on the powder, took out a long stone and stirred it quickly.
"He wants me to eat snake venom? It seems that Zhiyou is right, didn't she just drink snake blood for me?" He Nai thought as he watched. But after stirring for a while, Da Wu immediately took out the cinnabar pen and ink rune paper, he closed his eyes and recited the words, and his hands held the brush at the same time and drew quickly, he drew the talisman very fast, and his hands drew different patterns and glyphs, He Nai was really dumbfounded, and secretly marveled in his heart.
"It's strange, wizards also use rune paper, how can they be more like a Taoist priest!" He Nai thought about it, and his heart became even more strange.
After a while, Da Wu's rune paper was finished, he threw the rune paper into the air, and with a wave of his right index finger, the rune paper burned in mid-air, and he walked over with a small black bowl and calmly took the falling paper ashes.
The Great Witch continued to stir the contents of the bowl with the stone, and after a while, he suddenly spoke: "Ivan, the Gu poison in your body has been artificially strengthened, you can only fight the poison with poison, quickly retreat to the spirit platform, the snake spirit is the natural enemy of this poisonous Gu, it will remove the toxin for you." ”
He Nai nodded slightly after hearing this, and then transferred all his spiritual consciousness away from his body and temporarily lived on the spiritual platform. Da Wu poured some dark green liquid into the bowl, and then helped He Nai to pour it into his mouth, He Nai's complexion instantly turned dark purple, and his body temperature dropped sharply. The Great Witch unbuttoned He Nai's shirt and sprinkled some red potion on him, He Nai's stomach soon began to squirm, and the outline of a snake appeared on his belly several times, and even the faint sound of insects was faintly heard, as if there was a poisonous snake chasing its prey in his stomach.
The big witch was carefully observing He Nai's belly, he suddenly frowned, and hurriedly closed his eyes and silently recited the incantation, He Nai's belly squirmed even more, and the sound of insects chirping could already be heard very clearly. He Nai's body shook suddenly, and he let out a strange scream, which was not a human sound at all, as if it was the sound of a strong wind blowing through some kind of gap.
"Out!" Dawu roared with a jar in his hand, and a black phantom spewed out of He Nai's mouth, and then hid in the jar, Dawu quickly covered the jar and put a seal on the mouth of the jar. He Nai's body temperature quickly rebounded, and his skin color gradually returned to normal.
"Alright, come out. Dawu said kindly. After He Nai opened his eyes, he found that Dawu was already sweating profusely, and it seemed that this detoxification process was really not easy.
"Thank you Dawu for saving me, how can I ~ De be so tired of Lao Dawu!" He Nai almost reported his name, and after saying the word "He", he was taken aback and immediately changed his statement.
"You're welcome. This is a nourishing herb, boiled water is taken once for two dollars, once in the morning and once in the evening, and it can be taken for three days to restore the physique. Da Wu took out the medicinal herbs wrapped in yellow paper and handed them to He Nai.
"Well, thank you, Dawu!" He Nai replied sincerely.
"You go back to recuperate first, remember, you can't go out at will these days. Dawu said with a little seriousness. When He Nai heard Da Wu's words, he was strange again, thinking to himself, hadn't he, Ivan, been missing for several months, and suddenly appeared in front of their eyes and was tricked, why didn't Da Wu ask the reason? Could it be that he knew everything? Impossible!
"Someone!" the Great Witch raised his voice and shouted, and soon two young men came running, they were about in their early twenties, and they were also dressed in peasant clothes, and they looked no different from the people outside.
"Master, what do you command?" the two said in unison. He Nai was secretly surprised when he heard this, thinking to himself what was wrong, how could they talk in a crepe, like the ancients.
"Take Ivan back to his room to rest, and you two will take care of his daily life for the time being. The Great Witch said.
"Yes!" the two of them replied in unison.
"Brother Ivan, please!" said one of them with a smile.
"Dawu, the juniors will leave first. He Nai said goodbye to the Great Witch, and then followed the two down the tower.
"Brother Ivan, how are you?" As soon as He Nai got off the tower, Nata ran over with an excited face.
"Nata, don't make a fuss, Ivan has just removed the Gu poison, and now he is very weak, Master ordered us to send him to rest. One of the two people leading He Nai hurriedly flashed over to block Natadao.
"Brother Ban Luo, why are you so serious? Hmph, it's really!" Nata said a little unhappily, she still leaned over and stuffed a small package to He Nai, and said with a smile: "Brother Ivan, this is a glutinous rice cake made by myself, I haven't tasted it for a long time, right?"
"Oh, thank you, it must be delicious. He Nai had no choice but to take it, and said with a smile, he took the opportunity to sneak a glance at Ban Luo's face, and immediately knew the general idea in his heart. He thought to himself: "It looks a little interesting, presumably Nata likes Ivan, and Ban Luo likes Nata, as for whether Ivan likes Nata or not, it's hard to say for the time being, it seems that he likes it." By the way,, am I Ivan after all!
"Don't get in the way, Ivan, let's go. Ban Luo was still polite to He Nai on the surface, but He Nai obviously felt a trace of hostility and sourness.
"Well, okay, I'm going to have to work for the next few days. He Nai politely replied, and then followed the two of them on, He Nai glanced back at Nata, and she waved her hand to herself reluctantly.
"It's strange, if I stay in the house for a few days and can't go out to see people, and I have to be watched by two people, isn't that house arrest? What is going on, what mistake did I make? Or, what did Ivan do wrong? Dawu is obviously the authority here, what kind of medicine is sold in his gourd?" He Nai thought as he walked, puzzled.
Along the way, He Nai didn't look around, but only secretly glanced at the surrounding environment and scenery, which he did to pretend not to be a stranger. His dwelling was not too far from the tower, two intersections away, and it was similar to the one in Miao Village, still a small two-story building, but with an extra wall made of stones.
"Ivan, although you and I are friends, the master's order cannot be violated, please forgive me. When he walked to the door, Ban Luo suddenly said to He Nai. Another brother also smiled and said, "Brother Ivan, you can do it yourself, we will wait at the door, if you need anything, please tell me directly." At the time of the meal, we will bring the food, these days have been wronged. ”
"Oh, thank you so much, then I'll go and rest first. He Nai said happily, but scolded in his heart: "Hearing them say this, my conjecture has finally been confirmed - I was indeed under house arrest." Grass, what should I do then? I still have to save Yu'er, even if there is a millionth hope, I have to save her!" He Nai pondered how to get out as he walked. He walked into the small building and entered the room that looked like a bedroom, the furniture and objects in the room were very unfamiliar, but there always seemed to be a little familiarity, and when he was surprised, a photo on the bedside table made him confused: it was a photo of him with Nata and Banlo! And it should be a photo of the last two years!
"No way, absolutely impossible! At most, that Ivan looks like me! Otherwise, how would my parents, Uncle Dun, Fat Man, and Applejack explain it? Damn, I'm going to collapse!" He Nai thought as he walked up and down the room, and after walking for a while, he suddenly sat down on the bed and sighed.
"If I'm really Ivan, then, everything before is fake?" He Nai suddenly looked shocked and muttered to himself.
"Ban Luo, why are you so unreasonable, you get out of the way!" Suddenly, Nata's voice came from downstairs, and He Nai leaned over the window to look down, she was arguing with Ban Luo.
"Sister Nata, there's really nothing we can do, we really can't go in, just for a few days, can we bear with it?" Ban Luo said almost pleadingly.
"Yes, Nata, the rules must not be broken, and the orders of the Great Witch must not be disobeyed, you know this. Another gatekeeper said.
"Use the big witch to scare me again, I don't care, I just want to go in!" Nata was willing to listen to their persuasion and directly broke in, Banlo and they had to stand at the door to block her.
"Nata, don't make trouble, let's follow the orders of the Great Witch, I think he must have his reasons, and he should be fine in a few days. He Nai poked his head out of the window and said to Nata as if he was familiar.
"But, Brother Ivan~ Okay, I'll wait a few days. Brother Ivan, this is the clothes I made for you, do you want to wear it to see if it fits?" Nata took out a small package and threw it directly into He Nai's hand. He Nai got the package and felt hot in his heart, thinking that no matter what, this Nata is really good to Ivan, she is such a good girl. He Nai glanced at Ban Luo inadvertently, only to see that his face was blue and white for a while, and it seemed that the vinegar jar had been broken in his heart.
"Okay, thank you!" He Nai thanked and hurriedly left the window. He opened the package sent by Nata and looked at it, it was a white shirt, the fabric was soft and comfortable to the touch, and the seams of the fabric were so well sewn that at first glance it was hard to believe that it was handmade clothes.
"It's amazing, these days, how many girls can make clothes by hand?" He Nai sighed, suddenly there was a tingling pain in his hand, and when he looked at it, there was actually a sewing needle on one finger, He Nai smiled: "Dizzy, Nata, Nata, I praised you just now, I actually left all the sewing needles in the clothes!"
He Nai gently pulled out the sewing needle, and a large drop of blood immediately gushed out of his fingers, he looked at it, and suddenly brought the wound to his mouth and sucked it. At this time, He Nai was suddenly stunned, as if he was frightened by his own actions, and he said to himself: "What's the matter? I have never been in the habit of licking my own wounds, but the completely unconscious action just now, and the smell of blood how can it taste so refreshing? This is cool, and it is still a little familiar!" (To be continued.) )
