[Sword III] Seeking Wings

"Phew... I've been right seven times, and I can't be wrong." After marking the acupuncture points indicated in the picture on Chi Xiao's body, Tang Xiaoyi shook his hands and straightened up, turning a page in the reference book in front of him.

—and took out a handful of silver needles from the opened mechanism.

Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle.

Modin had watched countless faction fights, and he was familiar with the appearance of these famous weapons.

So scared that I almost fell off the frame.

"Hey... Miss Tang, is this a hidden weapon? You, you, you... You want to use it to give the Taoist priest a needle?" He was so startled that he couldn't even use his tongue.

"Yes." Tang Xiaoyi replied, "I only have this one on hand, which is the most similar to the picture in the book."

"Rainstorm pear blossom needles... aren't all highly poisonous?"

"Yes." She took the silver needle in her hand, and tried her hand against the diagram in the reference book.

"—Mine is not poisonous, because it is usually a one-hit kill, no need."

Modin felt even more frightened.

"Hey, Miss Tang... I heard that it is best to use mild medicine for internal injuries. This kind of violent treatment is the worst policy-you read the book and it says "choose carefully"-oh my god, the list of side effects in the appendix !" He flipped her reference book back to the page of the meridian map, tugged on her sleeve and continued to persuade, "Besides, this is the first time you have given acupuncture, right? Human life is at stake, this can't be messed up..."

"I know.... But we don't have time." Tang Xiaoyi's voice finally showed a trace of hesitation.

But soon, he returned to his original crispness, "He will understand."

"—Besides, my technique has always been very accurate, and there will be no problem the first time."

Conscious that the standard needle insertion technique on the pages of the book was not very smooth for a while, she directly put on the gesture of throwing a concealed weapon in the past, and after trying several angles at the grain bag, she finally nodded in satisfaction.

At this moment, when he saw clearly the barbs on the tip of the killing weapons that were thicker and longer than medical needles, Modin trembled again in fright, and almost cried out, "My god... even if it's like this... Zhi, how painful it must be to pull out the needle... If the head of the Taoist priest is struggling and the needle is displaced, it will be a big disaster, Tang Nuxia!"

"No." Tang Xiaoyi patted Modin on the shoulder, pulled his sleeve out of his hand, picked up a series of medicine bottles that he had prepared earlier, and quickly started to prepare the poison:

"We fed him Ruanjin powder in advance, and he won't move."

Modin couldn't say a word for a moment.

——In the young mind, there were only the violent vibrations of the pink bubbles that rose up before cracking and smashing into bloody ground.He felt dizzy and slumped down on the seat with a thud.

***

After tossing and tossing for two full hours, Tang Xiaoyi's cruel treatment was finally completed without any risk.

Under normal circumstances, a serious injury that requires at least seven days of recuperation to wake up, has now recovered to the point where he can withstand the bumps of the grain truck and continue on the road with a clear mind.

After checking Chi Xiao's basically stable pulse, she shook off the sweat on her head, and looked aside in fear. Modin, whose complexion was almost worse than that of the patient, made a "fixed" gesture and began to pull out the needle.

It went smoothly at first, but because Tang Xiaoyi was an amateur after all, he didn't have enough time, and he wasn't as cruel as he thought. Seeing Chi Xiao's face turned blue and white in pain, he subconsciously slowed down a few beats in his hands, and at the end After a few needles, the effect of Ruanjinsan gradually wears off.

At this time, Chi Xiao had recovered some strength, and began to struggle in a daze.

"—Hey, hey, don't move around! You're going to die!" Seeing the needles on his body trembling, the cold sweat on Tang Xiaoyi's forehead suddenly soaked up again, she stopped immediately, and pressed him tightly Leaning over his shoulder, he softly persuaded him, "Listen to me, Daoist Master, there are still five needles left to complete, just bear with it, and persevere for the last time... I beg you, okay?"

"Not good!" Chi Xiao closed his eyes and groped, grabbing her hand, moaning/groaning indistinctly, "I can't bear it! Don't insist! I'm really in pain... You are heartless!... Don't touch it!" Don't touch me don't touch me...!"

He obviously couldn't push her away with his current strength, he could only tremblingly grasp her sleeve edge and shake it back and forth, feeling that the other party was not moving at all, he began to struggle to turn his head again, as if he was planning to bite someone.

Tang Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment.

——She is usually not in Tangjiabao, or in the stronghold of the Valley of the Wicked. She sees tens of thousands of wounded and sick. , but I have never seen... such a coquettish act.

Haven't seen it for ten years.

Therefore, she no longer remembers how she comforted him back then.

She could only maintain the forcefully restrained position and not move until her little brother slowly regained consciousness and opened his eyes.

The moment the focus in those eyes was restored, the usual coldness, calmness and indifference also immediately returned, perfectly occupying all the expressions that were revealed.

Even the physiological tears that were naturally produced due to pain, he was able to control them back quickly, as if they had never appeared.

The current Chi Xiao has completely turned back to the tough and dignified Haoqi League elite warrior, as if the one who was moaning/groaning and acting like a baby a few seconds ago was simply another person.

...or, an illusion.

It is the voice and appearance of an old friend who knows that it has been buried in the depths of time, but still hopes in the bottom of my heart to see it again.

Tang Xiaoyi lowered his head in a daze, just as Chi Xiao was calmly and quietly tidying up his previous struggles, the tattered little tassels on the long sleeves of the Taoist robe seemed to have sensed her gaze, and he suddenly hid it in the palm of his hand.

She sighed heavily.

"...Miss Tang? Go on, it's okay." Chi Xiao closed his skirt a little, exposing only the part that hadn't been pulled out, and then faced the light of the fire pocket in Moding's hand, he directly posed in a very suitable human specimen pose give her.

Hearing this, Tang Xiaoyi finally came back to her senses, she pursed her lips, leaned over silently and continued to fight.

The last five needles happened to be the most critical and sensitive meridians, but Chi Xiao really didn't make a sound, didn't move, and didn't even change his expression.

It's just that when Tang Xiaoyi helped him bandage the wound and tidy up his clothes, he insisted on tidying up his sleeves so that he could cover his fingers that had sprained their knuckles while holding on to the frame of the bike in pain.

Tang Xiaoyi saw it, but pretended not to.She turned her back and concentrated on cleaning the large entangled bloody mess on the silver needle barb.

After everything was dealt with, just as she put the silver needle into the mechanism and put it back into the thousand receiver, she heard Chi Xiao's voice again, "Miss Tang, I remember there is spirits in the car, give me a pot. needle."

Tang Xiaoyi knew what he wanted to do.

Although the violent treatment just now was effective, it was impossible for him to directly restore his combat effectiveness.The route ahead is full of thousands of berserk soldiers, as well as unknown wolf-toothed masters lurking outside. Therefore, he needs to use some means to immediately stimulate his physical strength to ensure that the three of them can complete the task quickly and smoothly.

——Just for the itinerary, but not really.

After all, there is Modin who can help drive the car, and although she, the land lord, has not obtained all the illusion weapons, if she is assisted by his resourceful mind and rich experience in dealing with evil spirits, she is still [-]% sure that she can do it alone Protect the three.

So the most important thing is that he wants to immediately fuse the part of the fantasy weapon that Chixiao Honglian had previously captured, so as not to be snatched back by her when the sword master is weak, so that when he arrives in Luoyang and fights for the spoils for the camp, he can have the suppression Her trump card.

——For this reason, he did not hesitate to use "that method" to treat himself.

Tang Xiaoyi knew that it was the secret method from the camp that needed spirits and silver needles. This method uses the heat of spirits combined with acupuncture to forcibly tear open the damaged meridians, which can stimulate people who are almost breathless in a short time to the point where they can Run, jump and fight.

However, in terms of medical theory, this method hurts rather than cures. It is not only painful, but also damages the foundation of the person, and even shortens the life span. Therefore, it is never recorded in medical books aimed at benevolence and benefit the world.

Only the faction people sometimes need to make seriously injured prisoners have the strength to confess or lead the way, so it is recorded in the torture course and passed down.

...However, how could the Taoist master know this method?

Tang Xiaoyi suddenly became suspicious.

Torture in the camp is in charge of special personnel, and generally it is not disclosed to unrelated people.She would know because she was an assassin of the Tang Sect, and she had received torture training before leaving the division.Jun Niang also inspected her for several years before she recognized her psychological quality and gave her access to these dark methods.

And Chi Xiao, a Taoist cultivator who pays attention to xinxing merit and virtue, is a simple front-line warrior, or a member of the Haoqi League, so he shouldn't know this secret that is obviously not very noble--

Not to mention, familiar enough to use it by hand.

When Tang Xiaoyi was pondering, Chi Xiao had already taken the thousand receivers she put on the frame by himself, and removed the rainstorm pear blossom needle again.

Probably because I haven't seen the latest model that she just released last month, and the mechanism she mastered is not orthodox, and she has to get it done quietly before she recovers. When it was turned off, half of the thousand receivers had been dismantled back to the state of parts, and the place was in a mess.

"——What are you doing!" Tang Xiaoyi finally realized, and immediately yelled angrily, "Lie down! Don't mess around!"

Seeing Chi Xiao standing up with difficulty, and going to get the wine jug that was hung on the back of the car the day before yesterday as a gift when helping refugees, she became even more angry, and immediately pushed him back to his original position, and violently broke his neck The finger wants to get back the silver needle.

However, at this moment, she saw clearly what was in the pile of parts on the ground.
