Chapter Seventy-One: Detoxification
Chapter 71: Detoxification
"By the way, I just asked you about the patient's condition and where your family lives. As Hu Lao walked, he suddenly asked thoughtfully.
"Hu Lao, the place where we live is too remote, and we don't have a specific name, so we really don't know how to tell you. Meng Yu said with some embarrassment, he was also ashamed to deceive a kind old man, but this sentence was not deceiving, the cave they lived in before was remote, and there was no specific name.
"It doesn't matter, it's okay to have you lead the way, I'm also from the countryside, and if I don't have this medical skill, I can't say that I am also a farmer now. The countryside is poor, but the people's hearts are good, there are not as many things as in the city, and the government keeps collecting this and that tax. Hey, old is a lot of talk, don't mind. The old man seemed to recall some memories, and said with a contemplative face.
"How come, the way of the world is like this now, and I don't know when martial law will be lifted in this city. Meng Yu followed Hu Lao and said, the old man's health is good, walking in the rain is like a young man, he was still ready for Hu Lao to hold on, and Meng Yu, who proposed to carry him forward, became a companion to chat.
"Hmph, it's good that martial law is lifted and people aren't arrested. The four teenagers who were going to be arrested this time, and they didn't know what characters they were chasing, actually caused such a big reaction from the government. Hearing Meng Yu's words, Hu Lao said a little angrily.
"The government is also for the good of our people, those four teenagers are Jiangyang thieves, they don't blink an eye when they kill people, we can rest assured if we are arrested early, and we don't have to worry about the woman in the family suddenly disappearing. Meng Yu said tentatively.
"Hmph, the Jiangyang thief also deceived ordinary farmers, the loss of a woman is not a city of ours, four teenagers can do such a thing. Besides, how many years has the loss of the woman continued, why didn't the government pay attention to it early. The old man's face turned red.
Meng Yu was happy in his heart, there were still people who knew that they had been wronged. The old man shook his head, looked at Meng Yu and sighed, knowing that his words were playing the piano to the cow.
"Hurry up, Qiao Jie doesn't know if she can hold on. Bai Yi inserted himself in the middle with a anxious face, and without saying a word, he picked up Hu Lao and ran.
"You, don't hurt Hu Lao. Meng Yu wanted to persuade Bai Yi to let go, but Bai Yi had already run away, so he could only shout at his back.
The drizzle follows the wind, the grass and trees are bright, a figure on the secluded path moves quickly, and if you look closely, you will find that it is two teenagers running side by side, one of the teenagers is carrying a white-haired old man on his shoulder, and the accumulated rain soaks the old man's clothes, and the pearl-like water droplets fall rhythmically along the path.
"Old Hu, save Qiao Jie, I beg you. When he arrived at the cave, as soon as Bai Yi put down Hu Lao, he grabbed his hands and pleaded. Hu Lao's eyes were hazy, and he instinctively followed Bai Yi's actions. When Meng Yu saw this, the ranger said angrily, "Okay, let's let Hu Lao slow down first, otherwise how to detoxify Qiao Jie, what if something goes wrong."
Hearing Meng Yu's words, Bai Yi also noticed Hu Lao's strange appearance, and said with a worried face, "Hu Lao, you take it slowly, slow down first." Then he looked at Qiao Jie, who was unconscious, and began to lose his mind, and he didn't know what to think.
After about a cup of tea, Hu Lao finally recovered, looked at Qiao Jie and stammered a little and asked, "You guys, didn't you say that you were a pregnant woman, how did you become an injured woman?" ”
Meng Yu opened his mouth, it was really difficult to explain, so he changed the topic and said, "Old Hu, this matter is a bit complicated, in short, we are not bad people." Let's take a look at the patient first. ”
Hu Lao glanced at Meng Yu with some suspicion, and saw the sincerity on Meng Yu's face, so he bent down to check Qiao Jie's condition, first taking the pulse, and then touching his head to look at the eyes, mouth and wounds. During this period, I kept thinking and checking repeatedly.
After a cup of tea, Hu Lao's face was a little heavy and said, "The patient was hit by a hot poison, and the rain accelerated the onset of toxins in the body, and now the toxins have filled the whole body, with my medical skills, I can control the toxins from entering the spleen, but there is nothing I can do about detoxification." ”
"You" Bai Yi's face changed, his eyes widened, and blue tendons burst out, and he reached out to grab Hu Lao's clothes. Hu Lao also wanted to feel something, and looked at Bai Yi's face and turned pale.
"What are you doing, do you want to detoxify Qiao Jie. Meng Yu waved his arm and opened Bai Yi's mouth to reprimand. Bai Yi's face was fierce, he stood in the distance with his fists and stared at Meng Yu for a while, but finally came back to his senses and didn't make a move.
Without paying much attention to Bai Yi, Meng Yu looked apologetically and said, "Old Hu, don't take it to heart, my brother is also in a hurry and has lost his mind." ”
"It's nothing, it's human nature, it's human nature. Hu Lao waved his hand in a panic and said, his arm was obviously a little trembling, and it seemed that it was not light to be taken down by Bai Yi.
"Hu Lao, the poison is all over the body, is there really no rule of law? Think about whether you've heard anyone say anything else, or who can treat it. Meng Yu thought for a while, there are many strange people and strange people in the Central Plains, and there are legendary characters like immortal cultivators, and there are really people who can treat Qiao Jie's injuries, so he asked tentatively.
"To detoxify this poison, unless Hua Tuo is reincarnated, there may be hope for Hua Tuo Divine Needle, don't think about anything else. There is another path that is a bit absurd, and whether it succeeds or not depends on luck. It's to find immortals, if you're lucky, you can meet those elusive immortal cultivators, you can also ask for it, and there is no way. Immortal cultivators are magically abnormal, maybe take out an elixir, and your friend will be saved. Maybe his words were a little embarrassing, and after he finished speaking, the old man himself was a little embarrassed to look at Meng Yu again.
"Hua Tuo, an immortal cultivator, one has been dead for I don't know how many years, the other is ethereal, it seems that it is really not easy to save Qiao Jie. Well, Hua Tuo died, didn't he leave any descendants, heirs or something. With a flash of inspiration in his mind, Meng Yu looked at Hu Lao and asked.
"Posterity, heirlooms. Hu Lao muttered, frowned and began to recall, and suddenly his eyes lit up and looked at Meng Yu and said, "I don't know about the descendants, but the heirs have heard of one, and I don't know if it's true or not, but I only occasionally heard a patient mention it, but that person lives in Zilin Mountain, not far from here, your friend is like this now, it's good to try, there is finally a chance." ”
"No, if the descendants of Huatuo really have it, they won't stay in the mountains, we still concentrate on finding immortal cultivators to ask for an elixir. Meng Yu glanced at Hu Lao and pretended to be depressed.
With a glimmer of opportunity, and it was still in front of him, Meng Yu made up his mind to try it after thinking about it, if it could be cured, it would save him from finding an immortal cultivator again. Meng Yu is still a little apprehensive about what happened last time, immortal cultivators have too many unknowns for them, and they don't know if it's a blessing or a curse to go for it.
Another point is that even if this Hua Tuo's heir is fake, they don't have much loss, and the delay is only half a day, and it doesn't make much sense to find an ethereal immortal cultivator.
After asking Hu Lao to stabilize the toxins in Qiao Jie's body first, and making sure that Hu Lao was leaving, Meng Yu and the three of them packed up their things and rushed to Zilin Mountain. Before, Meng Yu still wanted to send Hu Lao back to the city, but Hu Lao was unwilling to live or die, and Meng Yu was stubborn but had to give up. In fact, Meng Yu knew in his heart that Hu Lao was afraid that they would kill people and kill them, after all, Bai Yi's previous behavior was no different from that of the mountain bandits. As for Hu Lao going back to reveal their whereabouts, Meng Yu also considered it, and he lied before and didn't go to Zilin Mountain.
