Chapter 40 Choice
On the Shushan Mountain, everything has returned to its former peace and peace. Everyone who died in a life-threatening manner on the Shushan Square that day was taken away by their relatives and friends.
The disciples of Shushan sent them to the foot of the mountain one after another, and sent a special person to manage the matter of recognizing the body to ensure that there would be no misguided cases. At first, they were not so concerned, but once a man came to pick up a corpse. Without walking thirty miles away, he removed the body and fell into pieces.
It turned out that the two had a grudge, but unfortunately the deceased was on the mountain of Shu. The person who claimed the corpse had no chance to take revenge, so he pretended that the relatives and friends of the deceased took away the body and whipped the body to vent his hatred. Later, he was seen by a disciple patrolling Shushan, and then a special person was responsible for the matter of claiming the body.
There was no one claiming the corpse, and Shushan was responsible for the unified cremation. Poor Songhe and his elders were all over the world, and in the end they did not even have a whole body left.
A few days have passed in a blink of an eye. Chen Longxiang and Pei Jinxiu are both people with signs behind their backs, and they left early because of business. Tu Miaomiao stayed in Shushan for a few days because of Shu Wangchuan's affairs to avoid the embarrassment of meeting each other.
As soon as Long Ling left, Yun Zangfeng was deserted. Ouyang Hongxiu was worried about Yun Zangfeng and didn't know how to comfort him. He sat on the huge rock all day long with Yun Zangfeng, occasionally pointing to Li Moling's practice with Yun Zangfeng.
Although both of them knew swords, they still had some experience in the mental method of breathing. Yun Zangfeng taught Li Moling the breathing skills of the Dragon Transformation Art, and he taught him in a few days.
The Dragon Transformation Art is a technique of the demon clan. Yun Zangfeng can practice it because of his own adventure, but it does not mean that Li Moling cannot use the mental method of breathing in it. The method of using spiritual energy to cleanse the body is originally common. It is considered an auxiliary method of the Dragon Transformation Art, and is not included in the content of the Dragon Transformation Art.
Besides, Shu Wangchuan left Shushan that day but did not return to Emei. Instead, he took a detour at the foot of Emei Mountain and entered a valley.
There is a sea of bamboo in the valley, and you can't see the edge at first glance. There are clouds and mists in the sea of bamboo, and the bamboos grow densely from east to west, and there is no way to go. However, Shu Wangchuan seemed to be very familiar with this place. He walked forward for a few miles, and finally reached the end of the sea of bamboo.
At the end of the bamboo sea is a cliff, and there is a small bamboo yard under the cliff. The bamboo at the entrance has been cut clean and made into a house. The remaining wasteland has also been reclaimed into a medicinal field. Several rabbits and pheasants are jumping in it. I don’t know what the owner is thinking, nor are he afraid that the rabbit will waste the medicinal materials without knowing the price.
Shu Wangchuan passed through the path in the middle of the medicine field and walked into the courtyard. He immediately smelled a scent of medicine. An old man was holding a black rabbit in his arms, holding a palm-leaf fan in his hand, and seven stoves in front of him were filled with medicine. I don’t know why he was busy.
Shu Wangchuan did not rush forward, but stood beside him for a while. The kind-eyed old man gently suffused the blue smoke coming out of the medicine furnace with his hand, and his nose moved slightly, and he said, "The heat is almost done."
Wrap the handle with a black cloth that had been used for a long time, and took the pot of decoction from the stove, took out a small tablespoon, and fed it to the rabbit in his arms. The little rabbit smelled it with his nose, stretched out his clever tongue and licked it. Then he jumped out of the old man's arms like a chicken blood, jumped out of the ground, and fell to the ground for a while, and black and purple blood flowed out of his ears and nose.
Seeing this, the old man laughed and said, "It's done, it's done, silly boy, I've made my new medicine."
Shu Wangchuan nodded and said, "The power of poison matching for seniors is ranked first in Shu's life, and even the old leader of the Tang Sect is slightly inferior."
The old man seemed to be very helpful to Shu Wangchuan's flattery and laughed: "Go for a long time, hehe. Hey, why did you come to see me, an old man today? You don't come if you don't have any poisonous days on weekdays. Why, don't you accompany you, that little girl today? I still remember the scene when you exchanged yourself for her that day. I hate the person you love so much."
Shu Wangchuan lowered his head, and scenes from more than ten years ago emerged one by one. At that time, the late emperor had not yet passed away, and the bandits in the East China Sea were seriously affected. The late emperor recruited young and middle-aged people from all over the place to join the army to fight against the bandits in the East China Sea.
There is a family on the banks of the Minjiang River. They have been fishing for generations and occasionally crossing the river to earn some extra money. The Tu family men joined the army with enthusiasm to serve the country and sent their only daughter Tu Miaomiao to Mount Emei as a disciple. Who knew that they would never return it again, and Tu Miaomiao settled down on Mount Emei.
When Tu Miaomiao arrived in Shushan, Shu Wangchuan had been in the first place for a year. He saw the little girl for the first time. She was wearing a big flower jacket, two braids, and her cheeks were red. It was a very cold winter. The little girl was white and soft, which added some warmth to Shu Wangchuan.
The Tu family man said to the head teacher: "Master, I'm sorry, I really don't have a place to go, so I can't take it with me, so I'll cause you trouble."
The master shook his head and said to the Tu family man: "What are you talking about? In the past, Leshan was in danger and was able to survive thanks to the favor. Today, the donor has a trust, so he should repay him with a spring of retribution." The man said thank you a few times and left, but he never came back.
Tu Miaomiao was talented and intelligent, and the head master loved her very much. He accepted her as a closed disciple and taught some excellent martial arts. However, Tu Miaomiao was always depressed every day, sitting on the golden top waiting for the man to pick her up. However, the news that the bandits had been eliminated came, but the man still did not come back.
Shu Wangchuan was a little stupid, but fortunately, he was diligent and started a year earlier. Although his practice skills were different, diligence could make up for his shortcomings and his skills were no less worse than Tu Miaomiao. In order to please Tu Miaomiao, Shu Wangchuan spent all his time. Even if he gave up his senior brother's position, he would be happy to claim that he was a junior brother. Tu Miaomiao said that Shu Wangchuan would not be allowed to practice his skills, so Shu Wangchuan would not dare to practice any more. What would Tu Miaomiao want to eat? Shu Wangchuan would have to go down the mountain to buy it even if he was frugal.
Originally, he thought that sincerity would make sense for the sake of metal and stone to open up, and until that day, he would not think so again.
The news that all the water bandits in the East China Sea were wiped out reached the golden top of Mount Emei, but the news of the man did not come. Tu Miaomiao insisted on finding him, but if he didn't let him go, he would go on a hunger strike. The head teacher felt sorry for her and knew that she would not hit the wall and would not look back, so he let Tu Miaomiao go.
Shu Wangchuan was really worried. He risked being expelled from the sect and secretly followed Tu Miaomiao down the mountain without reporting. Tu Miaomiao was surrounded by a good teacher. He was a young Taoist nun in his early thirties. Shu Wangchuan was afraid of being revealed and never dared to follow him too closely. Fortunately, he had some kung fu foundation, but he was not shown.
The three of them went down Mount Emei and met the old man when they passed through a forest. They were not so old at that time, and they were only forty-five or six years old.
The old man blocked Tu Miaomiao and Taoist uncle's uncle's way and said, "I'm lucky today. I met a Taoist nun who happened to open a meat dish. It happened that I hadn't tried the new medicine yet. This child looked good. This nun had a big breast and a raised butt, but I just didn't know if it tasted good when she screamed."
The Taoist nun had a hot temper and stabbed her with her sword, but she was no match for the old man at all. She was taken away by a few strokes and knocked to the ground. The old man snorted and said, "If it weren't for my lack of interest in corpses, I'll try new medicine with you."
The rest of the matter was inevitably a waste. After the ruins, the old man took Tu Miaomiao and left with a humming little song. The Taoist uncle could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide with his sword. Shu Wangchuan did not expect that the master was so strong. He kowtowed respectfully to the corpse for a few times, dressed his clothes neatly for the Taoist uncle, and found a hidden place to hide the corpse, so as not to suffer other undesirable disasters if he died.
After completing these things, Shu Wangchuan followed the old man. He thought that his journey might be lost, but he never thought that Tu Miaomiao would cry and make a fuss to buy Shu Wangchuan a lot of time.
After a few moments of his journey, he arrived in front of the bamboo house. The old man slapped Tu Miaomiao with a palm and said, "I have been following you for so long, come out." Shu Wangchuan didn't dare to say anything, but he was afraid that the old man had deceived him, but he didn't show him at all. He didn't show up until the old man told him where he was.
When the old man saw that he was a half-aged child, he was a little surprised and asked, "What's the matter if you follow me all the way?"
Shu Wangchuan knew that he was no match for the old man, so he bowed and said, "Senior, that little girl is my fellow disciple. Please let her go. I will definitely be grateful for the kindness of the old man every day, and set up a tablet of immortality for the senior, and worship it every day."
The old man said dismissively: "I planned to let the little girl try new medicine. How could I let her go? Let her go? Who will try my medicine? Are you here?"
Shu Wangchuan said for a moment without hesitation: "I'll do it."
The old man laughed and said, "Yes, I don't know what the effect of this medicine is. I only know that it is extremely poisonous. After taking it, the intestines may be pierced, the stomach may be rotten, the seven orifices may be bleeding, the relatives may not recognize them, the body may be paralyzed, or itchy, and I scratched the flesh and blood and pieces, until there were still a pile of white bones. How about it, do you still have to try it?"
After all, Shu Wangchuan was still a child. He hesitated for a moment and wanted to refuse, but when he turned around, he saw the face of pear blossoms with rain that had fainted, he responded by a devil. Seeing him nodded, the old man took out the pill, and shot it into Shu Wangchuan's mouth with a bent finger. The pill entered his abdomen and the medicine melted. Shu Wangchuan felt a pain in his abdominal pain, half of his body was swollen, and half of his body was painful and itchy.
Shu Wangchuan cried and said, "I can't stand it anymore, please give me some fun." The old man just smiled coldly and did not react. Shu Wangchuan rolled on the ground, cried for a while and then calmed down. His whole body was already wet with sweat, and only his face was a little painful and itchy. When he reached out to scratch, a pus ruptured and a yellow smell of pus flowed out.
The old man shouted: "It's done, and Feng has a ghost woman who thinks she's so beautiful and keeps me out of the house many times. With this medicine, I want her to become the ugly one in the world, haha."
After being happy, he said to Shu Wangchuan again: "Boy, my medicine not only makes my face full of pustules, but also makes me feel blocked and my skills are lost. Now you are a useless person. However, my original intention of making medicine was to make the bitch kneel down and beg me, so I still kept a backhand. This medicine can be relieved, but it takes some effort. I think you have feelings and righteousness and are very compatible with my appetite. In the future, you can try the medicine for me and I will detoxify you. Everyone is happy. Look at what you think."
Shu Wangchuan has become like a person who is not a human or a ghost. How dare you not agree? The old man succeeded in his plan and continued: "This poison is poisoned once every half a month, and it will make people roll around the ground like before. You need to come to me to remove the poison once every half a month, otherwise your life will be free, and there will be more and more pustules on your body."
Shu Wangchuan replied: "I know, but there is still a reluctant request. I wonder if I can do it."
The old man was happy and said, "You say come and have a look."
Shu Wangchuan said: "I hope you don't mention the matter today in front of this little girl. I should conceal my whereabouts when I return to the sect, and I hope you agree."
The old man waved his hand and said, "No need to be so troublesome. I have a medicine here, which is like a dream. Those who take it will be confused and forget everything that has happened in the past period of time. Even if you remember it, it is not real. It is like having a dream. If you take it, you can take her back."
Shu Wangchuan brought Tu Miaomiao and Taoist uncle's corpses back to Emei, saying that he met Tu Miaomiao who fainted and his dead master at the foot of the mountain, and did not mention the rest. When asked about the pustules on his face, he only said that it was caused by a sudden strange disease and was punished by going down the mountain to face the wall and thinking about his mistakes. Everything was as usual.
At this moment, Shu Wangchuan stood in front of the old man. After so many years of removing the poison from Shu Wangchuan, he had developed feelings for him and had never been willing to cleanse Shu Wangchuan. Shu Wangchuan was an orphan. At this moment, there was a person like a grandfather who cared about him. Even if he suffered from the suffering of strange poison, he never complained. Shu Wangchuan told the old man about the matter on Shushan one by one, but he had no idea, he just wanted to tell him something.
