Chapter 489 Saving the Old Man

The old man let out a howl like a pig being slaughtered, which scared Taowu who was waiting in the hall.

Although the old man was shouting, he didn't dare to move, for fear that the needle on his forehead might accidentally go deeper.

Taowu just raised his head, then lay back on the ground, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The voice just now was obviously from the old man, which proved that there was nothing wrong with Duoduo. Since Duoduo was not in danger, there was no need for it to go over.

Duoduo felt dizzy and had tinnitus due to the old man's harsh voice. He threatened sinisterly: "If you yell again, I will pierce your mute point with the next needle."

The old man's shouting stopped abruptly, and he looked at Duoduo pitifully. The fear in his eyes made Duoduo feel a little bit sorry, so he explained: "Don't worry, this is acupuncture treatment. I use silver needles to seal the toxins so that it can't spread to important organs such as the heart and lungs.

Do you feel pain from the silver needle stuck in your brain?"

Yes, I just had an injection on my forehead, and it feels a little numb, but it doesn’t hurt at all.

The old man only noticed it then and wanted to reach out to touch it, but Duoduo stopped him with his quick hands.

He warned: "If you drop the silver needle, be careful that the poison cannot be controlled and flows back to your heart and brain. Then even the Great Luo Immortal will not be able to save you."

When the old man heard that there was no hope, he quickly took his hand back.

While the old man was quiet, Duoduo quickly inserted silver needles into several acupuncture points on his head.

"Why don't you take off your clothes? Do you need me to help you?" After pricking the acupoints on the brain, Duoduo asked the old man to take off his clothes.

The old man struggled for a while, torn between his life and his innocence, but finally decided to do as he was told. With the silver needle on his head, he carefully took off his clothes halfway to his waist.

When the old man took off his shirt, Duoduo saw the poison spots on his body, which were almost reaching his heart.

Duoduo quickly disinfected the silver needles and inserted them into several major acupuncture points near the heart, and also inserted several needles into the back.

Duoduo massaged the silver needles and acupoints, and the old man's face turned from black with shame to red, and he looked like a boiled shrimp.

The old man goes up the mountain to collect herbs all year round, and his face and hands are often exposed. After being exposed to the sun for a long time, they become a little dark, but his body is very white, which makes the poison spots very clear.

The old man stuttered again: "Girl...girl, do you really have to...touch me like this? You are not...molesting me, are you?"

Duoduo rolled her eyes at him and continued massaging the acupuncture points until the old man began to feel nauseous and vomit. Only then did she stop and feed the old man a pill.

Seeing that Duoduo said nothing and did not make any other excessive movements except pressing fixed positions, the old man did not dare to make a fuss, for fear of delaying Duoduo's treatment.

When Duoduo was massaging and pressing the acupoints for who knows how many times, the old man's face suddenly changed. He covered his mouth, pushed Duoduo away, ran aside, picked up a vase and started vomiting.

When he had vomited everything in his stomach, Duoduo handed him another pill and asked him to take it.

The old man took the pill, but did not take it immediately. Instead, he kept turning it over and over, wondering what the hell it was and whether it would kill him.

There are no elixirs in Shennong Continent. The wizards’ medicines are mainly liquid, but they are not boiled like Chinese medicine.

The wizard extracts the medicinal properties of herbs and makes them into a small bottle of concentrated potion.

There are many kinds of potions, all in various colors, which are extracted according to the ingredients of medicinal materials and the patient's condition.

In fact, it is somewhat similar to traditional Chinese medicine, but the medicine liquid is not bitter when you drink it, and you don’t have to drink a big bowl of it. It just tastes a bit strange, and it works faster than traditional Chinese medicine.

Seeing that the old man was holding the medicine but not taking it, Duoduo reminded him: "I advise you to take the medicine quickly, otherwise the poison will spread again and you will have to vomit a few more times."

When Duoduo mentioned vomiting again, the old man resolutely closed his eyes and stuffed the pill into his mouth.

The pill melted in his mouth, and the old man instinctively swallowed the liquid pill down his throat. The faint aroma of the medicine lingered in his mouth, suppressing the discomfort caused by vomiting.

The old man smacked his lips, savoring the aroma of the medicine. The burning sensation in his chest immediately eased a lot, and a flash of doubt flashed across his eyes.

Duoduo didn't give him time to think and kindly reminded him again: "I advise you to go to the toilet. It's better to stay in there for a while. And remember to bring more toilet paper."

When the old man was about to ask why, he felt a sudden pain in his stomach. His face changed drastically, and without bothering to ask anything, he just clamped his buttocks, opened the door with his clothes in disarray, and ran towards the toilet.

Duoduo first found something to cover the mouth of the vase so that the smell of vomit could no longer spread out.

Then he calmly returned to his previous seat and sat down, searching his storage ring for medicine to remove the remaining poison.

The old man doesn't need to take any more pills to clear out the remaining toxins. Just give him some toxin-removing powder.

Are you kidding? Duoduo is using the pills to make some money, no, he wants to exchange them for spiritual herbs. How could he be so generous as to provide so much to an old man?

Putting aside the fact that they were not related, based on the principle of not showing off one's wealth, she would not give so many pills to a stranger. Everyone knows that it is a crime to possess a treasure.

Duoduo put the powder for removing the remaining poison on the table and waited for the old man to return in boredom.

About an hour later, the old man came in with trembling legs. The moment he sat down, his anus was stimulated to the point of being stretched red, and his whole body bounced up. In the end, he could only stand by holding the table with one hand and covering his butt with the other hand.

Duoduo didn't waste any words and said directly: "Here is some medicine powder to remove the remaining toxins. If you take it for another three days, all the remaining toxins in your body will be removed."

After saying that, she spread out her palms and waved them in the direction of the old man.

The old man stared at Duoduo's palm in confusion, still unable to figure out what this meant.

Duoduo kindly reminded: "Can you give me my qualification certificate?"

The old man glared at Duoduo unhappily, "I'm not fully recovered yet, how can I determine the level of the qualification certificate for you? It won't be too late to get it in three days."

Duoduo replied coldly: "No, I will be given a certificate of whatever level I can get now. I am in a hurry and cannot stay here for that long."

The old man said this for Duoduo's own good. With Duoduo's level of witch doctor, he can get the highest platinum level qualification certificate.

Before the old man came back, he felt that all the illnesses that had troubled him had disappeared. With his current physical recovery, the girl could only get a silver-level qualification certificate.

What's more, she left him about three days' worth of medicine, which proved that his illness was not completely cured.

The old woman hopes Duoduo won't be impulsive and wait until he recovers before determining his level. This will be best for her.

When the illness that had troubled him for so long disappeared, he was so sleepy that his eyelids were fighting each other. In order to avoid falling into the toilet, he pinched his thigh flesh until it was bruised, and finally he was able to force himself to come back.

Now, being frightened by Duoduo's words, the sleepiness was driven away, and he quickly dissuaded her: "Girl, don't be impulsive. Wait for me to recover in three days, and then you can get the platinum wizard qualification certificate you have always dreamed of."

Duoduo glanced at the old man strangely and said nonchalantly: "Who told you that I want the platinum level? Just give me a qualification certificate. It doesn't matter what level it is, as long as I have the qualification to treat diseases.

Old man, you better give me the corresponding level of qualification certificate as soon as possible, I really have something to do."

Seeing that his persuasion was ineffective, the old man could only worry in his heart.

His sleepiness came back again, and Duoduo kept urging him, so he could only reluctantly give her a small silver nameplate.

The old man asked Duoduo's name, then ran to the next room to tinker with something, and soon engraved Duoduo's name on the back of the silver medal.

Duoduo asked the old man to help her make a small hole in the silver plate. She took out a platinum necklace from her storage ring, strung the silver plate with the small hole on it, and wore it directly around her neck.

The old man kept looking at Duoduo with a look of disappointment, as resentful as an abandoned woman.

Before Duoduo left, he still wanted to ask: "Why don't you wait three more days and come back to get your qualification certificate. You can come back when you have time. There's no need to rush to get a silver certificate now.

It doesn't matter if you don't have time to come, I can deliver it to you personally."

Duoduo knew that the old man said this for her own good, but she couldn't guarantee that she would pass by this city again in the future. After all, after the event, they would go to other towns, and the chances of coming back were slim.

As for asking him to deliver it to their door, it is even more impossible. They have no fixed place to live and do not stay in one place, so how can they give him their address?

In consideration of the old man's kindness, Duoduo politely declined the old man's offer: "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need such a high-level qualification. As long as I can save people, what level does it matter? I don't care what level of qualification I get."

The old man was moved by Duoduo's words. He resisted the urge to sleep, took out a nameplate from his inner pocket and handed it to Duoduo.

“If you encounter problems in the future, you can go to Lion Gate to seek help. I have some reputation there. As long as you show this nameplate, they will do their best to help.

Girl, my name is Shubok, see you again someday."

As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes rolled up and he fell asleep.
