Magical Medicine in ancient times

You, a person who is good at poison, can't detoxify the poison he developed, how could he know!

Zhou Jin complained silently, without showing anything on his face, "You came here so late just to ask me this?"

"I have been developing poison all my life. I don't believe that there is anyone in this world who is better at using poison than me. But you are an exception!"

He stared at Zhou Jin with burning eyes, as if excited, curious, and angry.

Zhou Jin didn't answer him, but just looked at him fixedly, the dim and bright candlelight reflected on his face, and he couldn't see his expression clearly.

Suddenly, Zhou Jin raised the corners of his lips, as if seeing something interesting, he said with great interest: "Your hair color is beautiful, is it natural?"

Hearing the words, Priest Bai's eyes darkened suddenly, and the cold light in his eyes was as cold as a poisonous snake.

Zhou Jin turned a deaf ear and continued: "I heard that there is a disease in this world, which can make people have white hair and fragile skin from birth, unable to withstand the heat of the sun!"

The white priest's pupils suddenly constricted, and his white eyelashes trembled slightly.

"You keep wearing a white robe to block the sun's rays?" Zhou Jin leaned back, his tone light and airy.

"You know how to treat it!" The white priest's deep voice was full of affirmation, mixed with a slight tremor.

"Maybe!" Zhou Jin tilted his head.

"This disease has a name, it's called albinism! It's a congenital disease! It will make people's skin and hair pigment fade, and make people's hair as white as snow!" Zhou Jin put his eyes on his almost transparent white On the hair, "This disease has genetic factors. If you are in this situation, maybe the elders in your family have also suffered from this disease!"

The white priest pinched the robe tightly with his fingers hidden in his sleeves, his fingertips turned blue and white.

His eyes were fixed on Zhou Jin, and Zhou Jin's slightly raised lips were reflected in his pupils.

"Kill him! Kill this monster!"

"Hurry up, don't let him get away!"

"Grab him, grab him quickly..."

"No, I'm not a monster, not a monster!"

"Hurry up and grab him, grab him..."

He ran desperately, and the intertwined branches and green leaves cut his fragile skin like a knife.

He couldn't think of anything, the chaotic brain only had one signal, that is, run!Run like hell!

Can't stop!

His body was in pain, and his eyes were blurry with blood, but he couldn't care less, he couldn't even raise his hand to wipe it.

The blood kept flowing, and the bright red color soaked the sand. Behind him were demons holding sticks. They clamored to drag him into the endless abyss.

Bai Yu was panting heavily, his throat was sore, and the sound of wheezing and wheezing came out of his damaged throat.

His feet suddenly stopped, and he fell to the ground suddenly. The inertia caused him to roll over several meters on the ground, and his scrawny body looked in a state of embarrassment.

His whole body was numb, and the pain seemed to be far away from him.

When he finally recovered from his dizziness, the group of devils had already arrived in front of him.

"Are you still running? You white monster, let me see where you are going!"

An ugly and ferocious face like a ghost appeared in the sky, with a crazy smile on his face, and red eyes filled with venom.

It was very dark, the moon was very high, and the whistling wind made the forest rustle.

Under the cold moon, a thick stick was held above his head...

The white priest closed his eyes, and the veins on his forehead were bulging.

When he opened his eyes again, his eyes had returned to calm.

"Conditions!" He looked at Zhou Jin and said something extremely calm.

"I'm leaving Jicheng, Zhou!" Zhou Jin curled his lips and straightened his back.

Priest Bai looked at him, and neither of them spoke again.

Calm was restored in the room, and two shadows were reflected on the wall, like two monsters with teeth and claws.

The white priest suddenly stood up and walked towards the gate.

When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped again, and a peaceful voice came: "Yan Xu's mother and younger brother were imprisoned by Ye Nacheng, and that's why she stayed in the General's Mansion!"

He tilted his head slightly, revealing a section of abnormally white skin, "This news is for you!"

After saying that, he left.

The door was wide open, the night wind came in gusts, and the candles were flickering.

Zhou Jin knew that the deal was considered a success!

But, what did he mean by his last words?

Yan Xu's mother and younger brother were imprisoned by Ye Nacheng?

Why did the white priest tell him this?

Zhou Jin frowned and sat quietly for a while, suddenly he felt blessed.

No way?

Did he think he had something to do with Yan Xu?

Zhou Jin couldn't accept it for a while, but Priest Bai looked cold and indifferent, so he was so good at brainstorming!

The elliptical bright moon hangs high in the sky, the dark night sky is vast and boundless, and the bright stars are all over the night sky like chess pieces.

"Master, am I really a monster? Why is my hair white? Why can't I shine in the sun? Why am I different from everyone else?"

"Ayu, you are not a monster! You are just sick! Master has been looking for a way to cure you, and you will become like everyone else!"

On the empty and deserted path, a snow-white shadow slowly moved forward, and the moonlight projected down, reflecting his face as cold as frost.

"Ah Yu, I'm sorry, the master still failed after all! I call myself a genius doctor in vain! Even my only apprentice can't be cured! You must not give up! If one day, you do it, remember to tell the master, then I will be in Jiuquan I can rest in peace..."

The white priest stopped suddenly, and he looked up at the bright moon in the dark night.Behind the white eye feathers is a touch of the same white light, hiding the deep sadness in the eyes.

"I hope you didn't lie to me, otherwise..."

His eyes narrowed slightly, trying to hide all his emotions.The snow-white and loose robe gradually disappeared at the end of the path.

With a "creak", a fragile branch made a sound, which seemed a bit abrupt in the dead of night.

In the bushes, a man dressed in black turned his head slightly, but a flower suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and a flash of beauty shot out like an arrow.Then there was a pain in the neck, and countless black spots spread in front of his eyes. His limbs were numb and stiff, and he fell back uncontrollably.

Before the consciousness disappeared, a red long snake was reflected in the eyes in a trance, swimming quickly among the branches and leaves. In the blink of an eye, the tip of the tail with colorful red spots disappeared among the dark branches and leaves.

On the second day, Zhou Jin who was still asleep was awakened by a sharp cry.

"Dead, dead..."

Zhou Jin put on his clothes and ran over in a hurry.

A little maid fell to the ground, her face full of fear, her clothes were covered in water, wrapped in dust on the ground, and tangled around her slender body, she looked quite embarrassed.

Next to it was an overturned water basin, and the ground was full of wet water stains.

Zhou Jin followed her horrified gaze and saw a man in black clothes lying in the bushes, motionless.

Zhou Jin stepped forward and leaned slightly. The man's face was covered by a black cloth, but it was not difficult to see his high nose bridge and deep-set eye sockets. He was from Beiliang.

His body was already stiff, his bare skin was abnormally bruised, and he looked like he had been dead for a while.

Zhou Jin got up, and suddenly caught a glimpse of his bruised and swollen neck out of the corner of his eye.

The two wounds oozing black blood were already swollen and festered.

This was obviously bitten by a poisonous snake and died of poisoning!

What kind of poisonous snake is so powerful!

There is such a poisonous snake in the general's mansion!If the snake is not caught, wouldn't everyone in the mansion be in danger?

Before Zhou Jin could think clearly, the guards in the mansion hurried over.

The leader was Ji Liang, who stared at Zhou Jin when he saw Zhou Jin.

"Doctor Zhou, why are you here?"

Zhou Jin pouted, "This is so close to where I live, I heard the voice coming!"

Ji Liang sized him up, didn't speak, but ordered the people next to him to move the body away.

Then, someone dragged the terrified maid away.

The maid was terrified, her whole body was limp, she let the guards drag her away, her wet face didn't know whether it was the spilled water or tears.

Zhou Jin couldn't bear it, "I saw it just now, that man was bitten to death by a poisonous snake!"

Ji Liang looked up at him, indifferent.He waved his hand, and the guards quickly cleaned up the place before they all left.

In an instant, only Zhou Jin and Ji Liang were left on the path.

At this time, the sky is already brighter than before!There was a red cloud in the sky, and the golden light shot through the cloud to the earth, which was extremely dazzling.

Zhou Jin narrowed his eyes dazzled by the sun, and planned to leave.

"Doctor Zhou, I have something to do today, so I can't accompany you! I hope you will pay more attention to yourself and don't meddle in your own business!" A voice sounded like a warning or a reminder from behind.

After Zhou Jin paused, he turned around.

The golden sun broke through the clouds, scorching the earth with dazzling sunlight, the dewdrops rolling on the branches and leaves were evaporated, and the coolness accumulated overnight was dispelled.

Ji Liang's tall body stood upright not far away, and a long reflection was projected under his feet, making him look a bit lonely.

He looked at Zhou Jin seriously.

With the light behind him, Zhou Jin couldn't see clearly the look in his eyes.

He didn't say anything, turned around and continued walking into the room.

When turning around an intersection, Zhou Jin glanced back from the corner of his eye, and there was no trace of people on that path.

In front is a promenade, the building is a bit like Dayong's construction, and there is a sparkling pool under the corridor.

There are tall and straight trees planted by the pool, and the shadows of the trees are heavy, reflecting patches of shady places.

Zhou Jin stood on the porch, enjoying the coolness quietly. The weather here in Beiliang was hotter than that in Ganjiu Town. The sun was already too hot this early in the morning.

His long corridor reminded him of the long corridor in Liu Yongchang's house. I don't know if there are fish in this pond?

The sun shines on the lake, sparkling.

He glanced at the dazzling surface of the pool, his eyes suddenly paused, and a thin figure stood there quietly by the pool.

Her waist-length hair fluttered gently, and a pink robe fluttered in the breeze.

Zhou Jin seemed to see a touch of loneliness and determination from that slender back.

His heart skipped a beat, and he turned a corner.

"Miss Yan Xu?"

The woman's body trembled, and she turned around in panic, her beautiful face was covered with tears.

"You are...Young Master?" Yan Xu paused, turned around in a hurry, raised his sleeve and wiped it on his face indiscriminately.No matter how much she wiped her face, she couldn't hide her red eyes.

"Are you... are you okay?" Zhou Jin was a little at a loss, the girl clearly didn't want people to see her fragility.It's not good for him to come here so rashly.

"I'm fine! Thank you, sir, for your concern!" She lowered her head slightly, not wanting Zhou Jin to see her in distress.

"I just passed by here and saw you standing by the lake, so..." Zhou Jin organized his words, "If you are okay, I will go back! You should go back to your room early to rest, the sun is getting bigger and bigger , don't get sunburned!"

"Yeah!" Yan Xu never raised her head, she leaned over and walked past Zhou Jin sideways.

As they passed by, a bruise pierced Zhou Jin's eyes like a thorn.

His eyebrows twitched, and he subconsciously grabbed Yan Xu's arm, "What's the matter with your neck?"

Yan Xu hissed in pain, and his face immediately wrinkled.

Zhou Jin immediately let go, "Are you injured?"

Yan Xu covered her arms, her face turned pale, and cold sweat rolled down her forehead.

She shook her head, shaking her lips that had lost all color, but did not answer: "Doctor Zhou, I'm sorry, I should go!"

After finishing speaking, before Zhou Jin could respond, he hurriedly left.

"You were hurt by Jena? Is it because of me?" Zhou Jin frowned, feeling unspeakably sour.

I don't know if it's more guilt or more compassion.

Yan Xu shook his head, tears welled up in his eyes, "Don't worry, Doctor Zhou, everyone in this mansion belongs to the general! No matter how they are treated, it is the general's gift!"

Zhou Jin stared at the thin girl in front of her. There was a deep welt on her neck, and the high raised mark disappeared under the collar.

And in places that have long been invisible, how many scars are there under this pink coat?

He suddenly remembered what Priest Bai said to him last night. The reason why Yan Xu stayed here was because of Ye Nacheng's coercion, so he had to live here and suffer all kinds of torture.

Zhou Jin sighed, and took out a medicine bottle from his chest, "This medicine is very effective in treating trauma, you can take it!"

He can't help her with anything, he can only do what he can to make her injury less painful!

Yan Xu looked at the black medicine bottle in front of him, hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he finally reached out to take it, "Thank you, Doctor Zhou!"

She looked at Zhou Jin, as if she could see the deep worry in his eyes.

She suddenly pursed the corners of her lips and smiled, and the moles around her eyes were flushed, "Doctor Zhou is a kind-hearted doctor, Yan Xu is here to thank Doctor Zhou for giving me the medicine! You don't have to feel guilty, I have nothing to do with you like this relation!"

She smiled lightly, and there seemed to be a hint of mockery in the corners of her brows and eyes, "Everyone in this house knows that I, Yan Xu, are just a plaything in the hands of the general! The general can do whatever he wants! I'm used to it!"

She was clearly smiling, but Zhou Jin felt that she was crying. The girl's heart-piercing cry seemed to tear his heart apart.

Zhou Jin didn't want to see her laugh like this anymore, so he interrupted her softly, "Is it worth it?"

Yan Xu smiled, and she stared blankly at Zhou Jin, as if she could see something in his quiet eyes.

"You know?" Yan Xu's lips twitched slightly, and then she laughed at herself again, "That's right, it's not a secret..."

She lowered her eyes and lowered her voice gradually.

There was a breeze blowing by the lake, and ripples appeared on the sparkling lake.Her robe was close to her body, making her look even thinner.

"It's worth it!" She said softly, her voice was soft, as if it disappeared into her ears with the breeze.

"It's worth it!" she said again, her voice clearer than before.

She raised her head to look at Zhou Jin with firm eyes, and the hair lifted by the wind brushed her pale cheeks.

"If I exchange my broken body for the safety of my family, what's not worth it?"

She smiled, as if she was remembering something, her smile was a bit ethereal.

"Do you know, Doctor Zhou, my mother is a very gentle woman. Since my father died, she has been the only one who has raised my brother and me hard! A family without a man, you can imagine how hard our life is! The relatives at home asked her to sell me for money, but she refused! She said, Yunyun and I are both her children, and neither of us should be left behind!"

Tears welled up in Yan Xu's eyes, "Look, how stupid she is! But I can't help her!"

Zhou Jin listened to her quietly, "So?"

"Well, it's my younger brother! He should be six years old this year! He has been very sensible since he was a child! He never let my mother and I worry about it!"

Zhou Jin was taken aback for a moment, he suddenly thought of the little boy in prison, only a pair of big eyes were left on his thin face!

There is also a woman who is sick and whose life and death are unknown with him.

Zhou Jin paid attention to Yan Xu's expression, she didn't seem to know that her mother and younger brother were imprisoned in the prison, living a life without tomorrow.

Yan Xu didn't seem to notice his strangeness, she pursed her lips and said, "Doctor Zhou, tell me, can I see them again?"

There seemed to be a ray of hope ignited in Yan Xu's dead eyes.

Zhou Jin looked at her anxiously, and said softly, "Yes! They must miss you too, and you will definitely meet again!"

She finally laughed out, like a child, "Thank you, Doctor Zhou!"

She shook the medicine bottle in her hand, "Don't worry, I will take the medicine properly!"

Zhou Jin looked at her leaving back, he still couldn't bear to tell her the truth after all.

He returned to the room, and before he could sit down, someone knocked on the door.

Zhou Jin opened the door, and saw Ji Liang standing at the door, "The general wants to see you!"

Jena wants to see him?

What's the matter again?Did he know that he was talking to Yan Xu by the lake just now?

Ji Liang seemed to see Zhou Jin's worry, and he said in a cold voice: "There are no secrets in the General's Mansion! Doctor Zhou, as I said, be cautious in your words and deeds!"

Zhou Jin gritted his teeth, "Lead the way!"

He wasn't worried about himself, but if he got Yan Xu involved, he couldn't absolve himself of the blame.

Zhou Jin followed behind Ji Liang, and soon reached the lobby.

As soon as Zhou Jin entered the door, Zhou Jin saw Yan Xu who was kneeling beside her at a glance. She hung her head, her back was straight, and her long ink-like hair hung down to her ankles, like a curtain of high-quality brocade.

Ye Nacheng sat in the main seat with a golden knife, and beside him was a white priest in white robes. His expression was calm, and his expression did not change when he saw Zhou Jin approaching. .

"Doctor Zhou, please sit down!" Ye Nacheng's rough voice resounded throughout the hall.

"Thank you!" Zhou Jin nodded, looking over Yan Xu's stiff back.

"I don't know why the general asked me to come here?" Zhou Jin asked directly after taking his seat.

"There is nothing important, but there will be a competition in the mansion tomorrow. If Dr. Zhou is interested, you can come and watch it!"

Zhou Jin was a little puzzled, "Tournament?"

"That's right!" Ye Nacheng smiled, "I even prepared a surprise for Doctor Zhou! There are also acquaintances of Doctor Zhou! Doctor Zhou, don't miss it!"

Zhou Jin had a bad premonition, "What surprise? Who is it?"

Ye Nacheng smiled, "If you know it in advance, how can it be a surprise? You will know it tomorrow!"

After speaking, he glanced at Yan Xu, who was kneeling below, seemingly inadvertently.

"Doctor Zhou is interested in this lowly slave?"

Zhou Jin's brows tightened, and he looked up at Ye Nacheng, but he couldn't hide the playful and malicious light in his eyes.

"Doctor Zhou, you are welcome! You are my distinguished guest! If you really like her, I will give her to Doctor Zhou as a reward!" He said casually, as if he was not talking about a single person, but a matter of fact. None of the objects.

A surge of anger surged in Zhou Jin's heart, he looked away, not wanting to take another look at Ye Nacheng's disgusting face.

"No need!" Zhou Jin said coldly.

Ye Nacheng's smile faded in an instant, he pressed his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Jin, "Oh? It seems that this lowly slave has offended Dr. Zhou!"

His thick voice sounded in the quiet lobby, "Since it is useless, there is no need to keep it! Come!"

The guard at the door came out.

Startled, Zhou Jin blurted out, "Wait!"

"Doctor Zhou?" Ye Nacheng raised one corner of his lips, and his beard woven into tiny whips dangled from his chin.

Zhou Jin gritted his teeth tightly, and he got up slowly, his eyes swept over Yan Xu who was lying on the ground and couldn't stop shaking, "Thank you, General, for the reward! I am very grateful!"

Ye Nacheng burst out laughing suddenly, he waved his hand, and the guards retreated immediately.

"Doctor Zhou really cares about the fragrance and loves jade!" He stroked the whip around his waist with his right hand, "Xu'er, you have to take good care of Doctor Zhou, don't let me down!"

Yan Xu knelt down again, but her head never lifted up, and no one present could see her expression clearly.

"Yes! General!"

She pressed her forehead to the ground, her whole being respectful and obedient.
