Chapter 54: The Search for an Antidote
Hu Yuancheng was skillful, inserting several silver needles into Yuan Jie's acupoints one by one, starting from the Baihui acupoints on the top of his head, passing through the Shenting, Ermen, Renzhong, and then Tanzhong, Qihai Yao Acupoints, and finally converging on the Yongquan Acupoints on the soles of his feet.
These acupoints are all important points of the human body, and silver needles are inserted into them to delay the onset of toxicity.
He took another reassuring pill from the box and gave it to Yuan Jie and Shui.
Yuan Jie was originally dying, but after these steps, his breath had recovered a lot, but his face was pale and his body was still extremely weak.
Wan'er was overjoyed, and Hu Yuancheng waved his hand and said: "Although his life is not hindered for the time being, my law can only protect him for two or three days, and after two or three days, if he has not found the right antidote, he will still be unable to escape death." ”
Wan'er Xue Feng heard the other party say this, and felt anxious in his heart, although the time for thinking was short, he had to find the antidote no matter what.
The two followed the instructions and carried Yuan Jie to the side room to live.
On the first day, Wan'er Xue Feng either searched in the village or went out to explore, and it took a lot of effort to find nothing.
On the second day, Xue Feng cleaned up a little and went out to search, and Wan'er decided to stay in Zhuangzhong to consult the pharmacopoeia to see what clues could be found.
In the morning, Wan'er read dozens of pharmacopoeias, but most of them were about typhoid fever and the treatment of common poisonous injuries, and there was no record in the book about the eldest brother's poison. In the afternoon, Wan'er continued to bury her head in reading, only to see that the sun was in the west, and the sky was gradually darkening, Wan'er remembered that tomorrow was the last day, and there was no trace of the antidote now, and her heart couldn't help but sink gradually. In the quiet atmosphere, there was a naughty child's voice in the ears with the wind, "The wind blows the sand, the trees raise their leaves, the water enters the river, and the ice is winter." Wind Tree Water Ice. "This is a common game played by children at that time, called 'joint ligature', which means that the first word at the beginning of a sentence or idiom is brought forward and connected before and after, so that it can not only exercise children's memory, but also can be used to interact with other children.
As soon as Wan'er heard the child's voice at first glance, a four-line poem flashed in her mind, which was carved on the wall of the temple, which was originally hidden behind the clay statue of Guanyin, and then because she wanted to move the statue of Guanyin, the poem engraved on the wall immediately appeared. This poem reappeared in front of her eyes at this time, and Wan'er almost didn't think about it, she took out the first word of the four lines of the poem and put it together, and unexpectedly, those four words were the answers she had been looking for days. The original poem is:
The branches are new in spring, and the leaves are spread with the wind, relieving how many grievances in the south are lifted, and the lone ranger takes the lead.
The four words are connected in one place, which is: branches and leaves to solve independence (poison)
This poem appears after the statue of Guanyin, and it is clear that the "branches and leaves" in it refer to the branches and leaves held in Guanyin's right hand. There are many poisonous snakes around the temple, so eighty percent of this poem is made to dispel snake venom.
Thinking of this, Wan'er was overjoyed, and she didn't wait for Xue Feng to come back, so she picked up her gun and went straight to the broken temple.
Xue Feng didn't turn around until late, and he didn't find Wan'er in the village, so he was very puzzled, and asked others, but they all shook their heads and didn't know. Although he was surprised, he didn't feel anything, so he came to the kitchen, and after a hasty meal, he moved to Yuan Jie's room to visit. Yuan Jie's face became darker at this time, and according to this situation, at most, if he stayed for half a day, his life would be difficult to protect. Xue Feng and Yuan Jie have known each other for a short time, but Yuan Jie treats friends modestly, so after getting along for a few days, he has a good impression of him.
With a bang, the door opened, and a cold wind blew in from the outside, and at the same time as the cold wind, it was the heroic Wan'er, at this time, Wan'er's lips and teeth were white, and the earth was mixed, covering most of her face. If it weren't for her piercing eyes, which were unforgettable, at first glance it would have been impossible to tell which character had entered.
"Miss Wan'er, come over and take a look at my brother, he is going to die. Xue Feng's voice was slightly flustered, and it was difficult to hide his sadness.
Wan'er came to Yuan Jie's bed in three steps and two steps, and after glancing at her brother lying on the bed, she opened Yuan Jie's lips with her left hand, and stuffed two leaves into it with her right hand.
Strange to say, Yuan Jie swallowed the leaves, his face quickly turned from black to red, and then to yellow and white, and his breathing seemed to be much smoother than just now.
Wan'er let out a long breath, put her hands together and prayed to the sky: "Thank God, the eldest brother is finally saved." ”
Xue Feng fell into the clouds, Wan'er told the story of the hidden poems behind the statue of Guanyin, and finally said: "This is really a coincidence, let me hear the children playing, otherwise the little girl would not have thought of the 'poem head ligature'." ”
Xue Feng said with a smile: "Little brother's life is big, our previous worries seem to be purely superfluous." ”
The two of them were relieved at this point. After a long time, there was nothing abnormal, so they went back to their rooms to sleep peacefully.
In the middle of the night, Yuan Jie suddenly felt that his whole body was hot, and his skin seemed to burst inch by inch, he had never suffered so much, his body rolled, and he fell from the bed to the ground.
Wan'er Xue Feng ran over when he heard this, and when he saw this, he was taken aback.
"Big brother, what's wrong with you. Wan'er shouted and ran forward.
She stretched out her hands, and was just about to touch Yuan Jie's body, when she felt that there was an extremely strong true qi surging towards her, and this true qi was intertwined with hot and cold, pushing Wan'er back more than a dozen steps before finally stopping.
Yuan Jie's body was tumbling, he shouted, and at the same time, his feet were on the ground, and his body immediately flew upward.
Yuan Jie's leap was too strong, and when he passed through the roof and reached mid-air, the momentum was still sharp and fast.
The people in the village were woken up by the sound, and they got up one after another and came outside the house.
Under the dark night sky, in addition to a round of bright moon hanging in the sky, there is also a person who glows all over his body. Not only did he shine all over his body, but he also jumped and galloped in the air, constantly changing positions.
Everyone felt dazzled and frightened.
On the morning of the next day, Yuan Jiefang paused his body and slowly fell from the sky.
Yuan Jie not only went to the poison, but also felt energetic.
The strength of his body seems to have increased a lot.
Xue Feng hugged his fists and smiled: "Congratulations to the little brother for practicing another miracle skill." ”
Yuan Jie said: "General Xue, I seem to feel like I've slept a lot, and since I was bitten by a poisonous snake, I don't know anything about the future. ”
