Xizhou Qu

Early autumn, just when the autumn is high and refreshing, the summer that has not completely receded, still drags its tail and misses the world, making the weather that has just entered autumn still a little sultry.The autumn rain that fell with a sultry sound made the air calm and cool.

It rained like this for three consecutive days, and he didn't see a single person during the three days. In the early morning of the fourth day, the rain finally stopped.An old man with white hair and smooth skin like jade appeared in front of his eyes. The old man's hair was messed up like a pile of bird's nests, his body was as thin as a dry tree trunk, but his face was plump and rosy.The old man was wearing a casual dress made of satin and silk, but it was already tattered, like a beggar.But Jiang Yu knew that beggars couldn't afford silk.

When the little old man saw Jiang Yu, his face showed surprise.

"Oh, there are still people alive, and there are foods that these little slaughters can't eat. What a novelty, novelty."

Then, a rope fell down, and he climbed up along the rope, sneezed heavily, and sprayed the old man's saliva all over his face.

The old man wiped off the saliva on his face, took out the dagger he was carrying with him and cut him, and said: "Boy, there is poison on this knife. As for the medicine, there is a mountain of medicine in the yard of the old man, and the mountain of medicine is full of medicines." Some herbs, if you want to detoxify, I will not make it difficult for you, go find the antidote yourself."

The old man had already seen how extraordinary he was when he came up. He had a very peculiar smell of medicine. He was a medicine man who was rarely trained in the Western Regions. People who grew up in middle school.And there are extremely high requirements for medicine masters. Unless they are physically strong, they will die within a few times of soaking. When many medicine masters are trained, because of being soaked in the medicine water, their body shape and appearance will be greatly reduced. There will be great changes, and it will become terribly ugly.

A person like him who has become a medicine man and can still live well, and his appearance remains unchanged, handsome and clear, is simply the best of the medicine men, one in a million.

As far as the medicine man is concerned, unless it is some strange poison, ordinary poison will not kill him at all. At most, it will make him move slowly and stiff for half a day. He is a medicine man himself, but he also knows a lot of medical principles, much better than those pampered doctors.

Although the poison on his dagger was not unique, it could still make Yao's life feel like death. It would take three days and three nights until it was completely dissolved by the blood on Yao's body.

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Yu had already walked in the direction pointed by the old man. After a while, he found the medicinal material he needed, and ate it with the extremely bitter taste. He hadn't eaten for three days. , Eating bitter herbal medicine at this time is like tasting the rare treasures of the world.

Seeing that he didn't spend too much time, Du Lao had a childlike look of surprise and joy on his face, like a greedy child who sees delicious food.

Du Lao took his hand and said with a friendly smile: "Nephew, have you eaten yet? I invite you to dinner."

Jiang Yu was inexplicably confused by the old man's enthusiasm, his eager eyes made goose bumps all over his body.

Afterwards, Du Lao took him to a simple room, poured him tea, served him a plate of delicious roast chicken, and said to him: "Come on, big nephew, this is my favorite roast chicken, give it to me." You ate."

Jiang Yu looked at the five fingerprints on the grilled chicken. If it was such an unappetizing behavior in normal times, he would definitely not eat it, but he had been hungry for several days, and there was a delicious grilled chicken in front of him. Although it has been imitated by others, it is better than nothing.

He smelled the faint smell of medicinal powder on the roast chicken, which was almost overwhelmed by the fragrance, raised his head and asked the old man, "Can you give me the antidote or should I find it myself?"

The old man said with a smile: "Well, there is an antidote, but you have to find it yourself. There are all kinds of herbs on my medicine mountain."

After he finished speaking, Jiang Yu couldn't wait any longer, and began to eat the roast chicken in front of him with big mouthfuls, and ate the whole chicken in threes and fives.After eating, dots of red spots began to appear on the body.

Afterwards, without waiting for the old man to speak, he rushed out and began to search on the medicine mountain that the old man said. After a while, he found the herbs he needed. After eating those herbs, he did not intend to leave the medicine mountain. It means that he has learned the principles of medicine and poison since he was a child. It is a common problem of all healers that he can’t walk when he sees herbs. so-so.

He began to identify and collect medicinal materials on these medicinal mountains, which were things he had never seen before and could only see in medical books.

The old man moved a bench and sat at the bottom of the medicine mountain with his legs crossed, and saw that he could not come when he waited left and right, so he was so restless that he followed the medicine mountain, only to find that the red spots on the other person's body had already disappeared However, the other party seemed to be in the land of no one, and began to pick up the herbs he had worked so hard to grow on his site.

But he didn't say much, and he didn't even express his displeasure. He looked at Jiang Yu with a big nephew on the left and a big nephew on the right as if he saw a rare treasure.

"Nephew, are you still hungry? I'll find something for you to eat."

"Nephew, this room is unoccupied, so you can stay here first. If it's uncomfortable, I'll ask someone to decorate it better for you."

"Nephew, do you know how to mix these medicines and how to dissolve them?"

The old man nagged and bothered him for a few days, but these days, he has lived a good life, with some food and some shelter, and there are rare herbs all over the mountains and plains that he can take inexhaustibly.

The only unsatisfactory thing is that every time the old man brings him poison, sometimes when he sleeps at night, the old man will sneak into his room and put some poisonous snakes and insects on his bedside. Something like that bit him, and waited for the next day when he was most poisoned to find the antidote.

If he didn't know that the old man wanted to try him, he might have tried to escape, but his patience is also good, and he probably likes these medical poisons very much. If he ran away, he might have already yelled at the old man.

The two of them came and went in this yard, and they became very familiar with each other. Although the old man is the poisonous old man of Xingyun Pavilion, and his personality is as weird as the rumors, if he put aside the fact that the other party always made him poisoned, he felt that This little old man is quite nice, he treats him like his own son.Whatever he asked for, he would definitely ask someone to help him do it. For example, after the weapon on his body was taken away by Su Linyu, he had someone forge an identical soft sword and hide it in his waist.

There are no Four Treasures of Study such as calligraphy, painting, paper and ink in Du Lao’s room. With a single word, the other party filled the room next to him with Books, Paintings, Scrolls and Four Treasures of Study. He began to feel a sense of sympathy for this old man.
