Chapter 356: The Poisoned City Lord
There is a large cattle and horse trading market in the southeast corner of Zhushan City, and in order to stay away from this smelly market, the city lord's mansion was built in the northwest corner of the city. Ding Kui asked local residents all the way before finding it.
"Although this city lord's mansion is a little remote, it is not so deserted in the daytime. Ding Kui looked at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion in the distance and said.
Ao Yu didn't react at all when he heard it, what should the day be like in front of the city lord's mansion, he didn't have this concept.
"Okay, just let me talk to myself. No one responded to Ding Kui, but he didn't feel bored, "There is no one else in front of the door except the guards, is the city lord going out?" Hey, there is a badge, this is a noble territory, so it makes no sense, and his own subjects starve to death and ignore it?" Ding Kui pulled Ao Yu and decided to go and find out.
The gate of the city lord's mansion was closed, and there were two listless guards standing at the door, and a large flag with the word "cypress" was hung on the flagpole, and there was a bulletin board next to the flagpole.
Seeing Ding Kui and Ao Yu approaching, one of the guards cheered up, pointed to the bulletin board and asked, "Are you two here to apply for detoxification?"
"Detoxification?" Ding Kui immediately had a few thoughts in his mind.
"Isn't it?" the guard's face drooped again, "This is the City Lord's Mansion, and idlers are not allowed to approach." ”
Facing the guards who had no eyesight, Ding Kui smiled slightly, pulled out the magic wand from his waist, and shook the head of the wand slightly, and a whirlwind suddenly blew in the open space in front of the city lord's mansion.
"Although I am not a doctor, I still have a little research on the use of poison. Ding Kui was very satisfied with the guard's helpless expression.
It was more than enough for a magician to be the guest of honor of the city lord, and the guard wanted to drive people away just now, so he hurriedly saluted Ding Kui and said, "Your Excellency the Honorable Magician, the villain will go in and report immediately, please wait a while." With that, he rushed to the half-hidden side door.
Another guard also nodded, and even ran into the gatehouse, moved a chair out, and asked Ding Kui to sit and wait.
Regardless of the country, magicians are always respected, their mysterious and powerful abilities are incomprehensible, and they never use their abilities to oppress ordinary people, even evil magicians will not waste their magic on ordinary people.
"Why didn't he move a chair for me to sit on?" Ao Yu stood next to Ding Kui and grumbled, and before Ding Kui could answer him, the gate of the City Lord's Mansion opened.
A woman with a fiery figure and starry eyes with sword eyebrows walked out of the door, this woman was about twenty years old, she did not look like a noble woman in a dress, but wore a tight-fitting brocade robe, which further accentuated her convex and backward figure.
Under the guidance of the guards, the woman came to Ding Kui, stroked her chest and saluted: "Bai Yun has seen His Excellency the Magician, and I dare to ask your honorable name." ”
"My name is Xie Peng, this is my companion Ding Yu, a warrior who has just come to the Guyuan Empire from the country of Lu, and I came to your city for the first time, and I have come to visit your city lord. Ding Kui directly explained his intentions.
"This, the city lord is the father, His Excellency Xie Peng and Mr. Ding please come into the house to talk about it, so that the Bai family can fulfill the friendship of the landlord. A trace of worry flashed in Bai Yunxing's eyes.
Ding Kui looked at Bai Yun's eyes, but it was inconvenient to say too much in front of the door, and under the leadership of Bai Yun, he and Ao Yu walked into the City Lord's Mansion.
Bai Yun took the guests to the hall and sat down, and received Ding Kui and Ao Yu with the most grand specifications. Magicians and slashers are not ordinary people, and they are all distinguished guests to Pearllight City.
After the guest and host sat down, Bai Yun bowed and said, "I'm very sorry, Your Excellency Xie Peng, my father can't come out to receive the two of you in person, I hope you can understand." ”
"I heard from the guard at the gate just now that your mansion is asking a doctor to detoxify, but the city lord has been poisoned?" Ding Kui deduced from the anomalies he had discovered earlier.
"To tell you the truth, my father is indeed poisonous, we have found all the famous doctors in the vicinity to diagnose, but no one has been able to solve the poison in my father, this matter has been troubled by the Bai family for many days.
I heard that His Excellency Xie Peng has studied poison, I wonder if you can show your father? If you can save your father, the Bai family will definitely thank you. Bai Yun didn't go around in circles with Ding Kui, and directly said the crisis at home, it seems that the matter has reached a very serious point.
"Since I ran into it, I must see it, I can't guarantee if I can save the city lord, do your best. Ding Kui didn't dare to say it to death.
Bai Yun immediately got up and said, "Yun doesn't need your guarantee, you just need to show your father, Yun is grateful." ”
Earl Bai Cen, the lord of Zhuguang City, was nearly fifty years old, lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and his exposed skin was black, and it could be seen that the poison was not small.
Bai Yun invited Ding Kui into Bai Cen's bedroom, and a servant had already reported that only a middle-aged lady was left sitting on the edge of the bed in the room.
"Yun'er, can this young master really save your father?" asked the middle-aged lady with tears in her eyes, she didn't quite believe Ding Kui and had a glimmer of hope in her heart.
"Try your best, even if I can't detoxify, at least I can alleviate it, I still have this point. Ding Kui wasn't sure about the efficacy of his treasure, but he believed that Ao Yu and the water dragon were the authority on detoxification.
"Really, it's good to take a break. The lady was a little excited, and when she came over, she wanted to grab Ding Kui's arm, but later felt that it was inappropriate, so she grabbed Bai Yun instead.
"How long has the city lord been like this?" asked Ding Kui.
"It's been five days," Bai Yun frowned, "Father is lying like this without eating or drinking, we can only barely pour some water on him, and if he continues like this, he will starve to death if he is not poisoned." You can relieve it and let him wake up and eat something, which is also a great favor for the Bai family. ”
Ding Kui pretended to roll Bai Cen's eyelids, touched his pulse, and listened to his heartbeat, "Well, if you can fill the water, you can save it, I will prescribe a prescription in a while, decoct a pair of medicine for him to drink, and if it doesn't succeed, he has to rely on his own body." ”
"My father has been promoted to a fearless knight, and his physique is not to be said, if he hadn't had the fighting spirit to protect his heart, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to hold it for a long time. Bai Yun's words were purely to cheer herself up.
"If you need any medicinal materials, my family has already bought all kinds of medicinal materials that can detoxify, and if I don't have them, I will let people buy them immediately. The noble lady seemed to grasp the straw that saved her life, and she was eager to give her husband medicine immediately.
"I need a room, calm down and think about it, this can't be the slightest mistake, and by the way, call my companion too, he can give me the Dharma protector. "Ding Kui will open what recipe, and I don't know how to use the treasure.
Ding Kui's request was not a matter, Bai Yun arranged it for him in a while.
"How do I use this thing to detoxify?" Ding Kui asked Ao Yu with one hand holding the Jiaojiao bead.
"Boil it in water, and the water that comes out of it will detoxify. "Ao Yu is a sincere dragon.
"It's as simple as that? Ding Kui nodded, he sat down on the edge of the table, racking his brains to write out the names of the medicinal herbs he could think of, most of which were great supplements.
Bai Yun was guarding the door, Ding Kui finished writing the recipe, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw her, "You prepare the medicinal materials according to what is written on the recipe, and then prepare a stove and medicine jar, and I will decoct the medicine myself." Ding Kui handed the paper full of medicinal materials to Bai Yun, "This is my master's secret technique, and only some of them will be used, I have to keep it secret, you know." ”
"I understand, I understand, I will burn this prescription immediately after grabbing the medicine, and I will never keep the prescription to study the real medicine. Bai Yun is the daughter of a noble family, and she is clear about this kind of secret methods, only a clever doctor will use these methods, and she has more confidence in Ding Kui.
"You're done boiling water, why do you need so many medicinal herbs?" Ao Yu didn't understand.
"Tsk, just boiling water can detoxify, this is not clear to tell others that I have treasures. If you want such a large pile of medicinal herbs, throw a few mild and nourishing ones into it when you boil the water, watch them feed them to the sick and drink, and then take away the dregs, God knows what medicine I used. Be cautious when walking the rivers and lakes, and don't get yourself into trouble because of saving people. Ding Kui taught Ao Yu a lesson.
"I think you're trying to deceive other people's medicinal herbs. "Ao Yu doesn't sell Ding Kui's account at all.
"Are you a pig? can solve the poison of the city lord, what kind of medicinal herbs I want, they won't give it." Ding Kui's nose was crooked.
"What is a pig?"
"Well, well, it's useless not to discuss this with you. By the way, what beads do you have in your body?" Ding Kui's eyes swirled around Ao Yu's body.
A cyan membrane rose from Ao Yu's body and then sank into his skin, "What do you want to do? Don't try to beat my dragon ball idea, my dragon ball is not detoxifying." ”
"I can't even see through your clothes, do you need that?"
"No, who knows what talent you have, you never say. ”
"Really no, besides, I have the Jiaozhu Pearl, why do you still have the idea of beating your Dragon Ball, I just ask. ”
"No, I felt a chill from you just now, and you didn't have a good heart. ”
"Conscience of heaven and earth, how can I be such a kind person, eh, a unicorn, how can I have ill intentions towards my brother? Forget it, I don't ask! Ding Kui was thinking while shouting: What is the structure of this stupid dragon's dragon soul? Lao Tzu just thinks about it, he can feel that something is wrong, and he should stay away from him in the future.
Bai Yun quickly found the medicinal materials that Ding Kui wanted, and after Bai Cen was poisoned, the Bai family scraped almost all the medicinal materials on the market, and bought them at home regardless of whether they were useful or not, and even bought a bunch of poisons.
The servant moved a medicine tripod to the room where Ding Kui was, and there was also a medicine jar, I am afraid that the Bai family bought everything in the medical hall.
After Ding Kui drove everyone away, he let Ao Yu guard outside the door, raising the mystery index by a few levels, and Bai Yun and her mother believed in this little god stick even more.
After doing it for a while, Ding Kui knew how to decoction the medicine with the medicine pot, and when he saw that the water in the medicine jar was boiling, he put the Jiao beads in it.
The medicine jar was originally full of a jar of water, and after putting the Jiaojiao beads, the beads were churning in the boiling water, and slowly the black beads seemed to fade, staining the surrounding water black.
After boiling for about half an hour, a pot of water left less than half a jar of black liquid.
