Chapter 690: Great Plague God
At the critical moment when Liu Ba's hand was about to be chopped off, Master Hua, who had been out in the morning, returned to the inn and heard Liu Ba's screams of crying for his father and mother. eight hands
Master Hua took out a jade bottle from his pocket, poured out a little milky white powder, made hot water in a teacup, dissolved it, and asked someone to dip it in a towel and apply it on Liu Ba's hand, and then took it out After feeding Liu Ba a pill, he turned around and went back to his room.
Miraculously, within less than one meal, Liu Ba's hands, which were originally as black and purple as bear's paws, subsided and the edema, pain and itchiness disappeared. This strange poisonous injury actually healed like this.
Many doctors in the city were helpless against Liu Ba's poison, but Master Hua cured him so lightly. Naturally, these doctors were all quite disgraced. Especially Dr. Ma, who suggested cutting off his arm, he lost face greatly, probably because of this. Wanting to save some face, when he was about to leave, Dr. Ma pulled Uncle De aside and whispered in a low voice: This kind of strange poison is extremely difficult to cure, and only the person who applies the poison can have the antidote.
Of course, Uncle De could tell that what the old doctor Ma meant was that the poison must have been administered by Mr. Hua, which is why he was able to remove it so easily [
This suspicion was by no means unreasonable. Then Uncle De discovered that Master Hua had bought a lot of medicinal materials from the drug store in the city. After dark, he was tinkering in the guest room in the backyard and lived in that guest room. A short, fat man is said to be Mr. Hua's servant
Although the short and fat man's appearance is ordinary, there is always a fierce look between his eyebrows. It seems that he is not a kind person.
Master Hua did not allow others to approach the house at night, and posted sentries outside the courtyard gate. What they were doing inside was unknown to Uncle De and the guys at Ruidexiang Inn. But every morning, there would be people in the ditch or other places. The corpses of dead rats were found in the place. Not only the rats, but also many cockroaches, fleas, mosquitoes and ants were also dead.
After Liu Ba's incident, Uncle De and the clerks in the store did not dare to touch the corpses of dead rats and even cockroaches and fleas. They could only clean them out with wooden sticks and then throw them away together with the wooden sticks. Those who went to clean up The guys also found some faint dark red blood stains in the ditch.
After four or five days, various corpses finally stopped appearing. This was because all the rats, cockroaches, and mosquitoes in the inn were dead. However, the blood stains in the ditch were still there.
The more Uncle De thought about the report, the more he became afraid. He guessed that Master Xianhua and the short fat man must be refining some kind of poison in the house every night, and the poison was obviously very powerful to kill him. All the rats and bugs in the inn will kill people even if they are touched.
Because Liu Ba's incident that day caused a great stir, now everyone in the surrounding streets is living in the Ruidexiang Inn. It is said that the great plague god has poisoned the entire inn. People are determined not to get close, otherwise they will be poisoned and die.
Uncle De will inevitably hear such rumors and feel even more worried. Although "Evil Dog Gate" has rented all the rooms in the inn, they will have to leave sooner or later. If these rumors spread, I am afraid that no more guests will dare to stay in this hotel. What worries Uncle De even more is that although he and the other guys in the inn are fine now, who knows if one day they will suddenly die like those rats.
He wanted to ask the plague-god young master to move away, but when he saw that everyone in the "Evil Dog Gate" didn't look like a kind person, Uncle De had also heard too much about Jianghu strongmen taking human life lightly, so how could he have the guts to open his mouth and drive people away?
The owners of other inns in Mengjin City are all smiling these days. They count money at night until they can't sleep. Only Uncle De has a sad face all day long. Although he can't sleep every night, it is because of fear that he has become haggard in just a few days. He has aged a lot, as if he has aged several years
At night again, Uncle De sat hunched behind the counter in the hotel lobby, staring blankly at the waiter cleaning the tables and chairs.
There used to be eight waiters in the inn. Since the poisoning incident, five of them have quit their jobs, including Liu Ba, who almost had his hands chopped off. Now there are only three places left to go to the inn.
It seems that when the God of Plague leaves, he must invite the eminent monks from "Longma Temple" to perform a ritual to drive away the evil spirit. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be difficult to open this inn. Uncle De sighed in pain in his heart.
Naturally, Hua Bushi didn't know that he had become the god of plague in the eyes of others. At this moment, he was in the room in the backyard of the inn. The door of the room was closed tightly and the curtains were hung low, so that no one could see in from the outside. There were only this young master and him in the room. "Master Scorpion" predicts two people
The wooden table in the corner was piled with hundreds of medicines in large and small paper packages. Some of them had been torn open, and it could be seen that the paper packages contained various medicinal materials, and they were placed in the center of the room. The charcoal fire in a large stove was burning brightly. An iron pot on the stove was half boiled with a dark liquid that was already boiling and bubbling. What thing
Bu Wang stood bare-chested by the wall. There was a cut on his wrist and there was still condensation of blood. He looked nervous with some fear in his eyes and glanced at Hua Bushi who was sitting on the chair in front of the stove.
There is an iron stand in front of the chair, with five teacup-sized porcelain cups placed side by side. Each porcelain cup contains a little blood. Hua Bushi stares at these porcelain cups, focusing all his attention on them.
After a long time, he seemed to come back to his senses and said, "I hope this is the first time I have drawn your blood."
Divination said: "It's not a coincidence that Miss Yun has already drawn the villain's blood thirty-three times." [
Hua Bushi nodded and said: "Every time I draw blood, I test five antidotes. As of today, I have tried 165 antidotes. According to common sense, any snake venom, spider venom, toad venom in the world Poison, scorpion venom and earthworm venom can all be removed by "drugs", but they have no effect on the poisonous blood in your body. It seems that the blood poisoning technique of the 'Miaojiang Poison Sect' is more difficult to solve than I thought before. many"
Bu Wang said: "Yes"
He was in awe of Hua Bushi, but at the same time he desperately hoped that the blood poison in his body could be relieved. He had a complex expression on his fat face and did not dare to say anything.
Hua Bushi pondered for a while and then murmured: "It seems that the Poison Sect's exchange of blood is using these five kinds of poisonous insects to perform spells, but in fact, it has its own secret method to create a brand new strange poison that is not the original poisonous insect." I’m afraid it will be a bit troublesome to detoxify this kind of poison.”
He seemed to be talking to Bu Wang and also seemed to be talking to himself: "In fact, even a completely new poison should react to many drugs. The only possibility of the current phenomenon is this poison." It has the ability to change. When I tested the medicine, the toxicity changed accordingly, which made all my antidotes in vain."
There may be thousands of strange poisons in the world, but the poisons are dead and intelligent. Even Bu Wang, who comes from a poison family, has never heard of a poison that can change its toxicity and restrain the antidote. If this kind of poison really exists, it is probably the only poison in the world.
He was surprised in his heart but did not dare to say anything. He only said: "Yes"
Hua Bushi raised his eyebrows and said: "You also said that it must be so. Since there is such a smart poison, to cure it, there must be a smart antidote. Such an antidote
"Although I have been matched by others before, I should give it a try."
He suddenly stood up from his chair and walked quickly around the room twice. He seemed to have made up his mind and took a porcelain cup from one side.
This porcelain cup is as big as a basin and dozens of times larger than the previous five.
Hua Bushi took the five porcelain cups on the iron stand aside one by one, placed the big cup on them and said: "To prepare a smart antidote, you must first understand how this smart poison changes."
You can draw more blood today and I want to test the changes in blood poisoning."
Bu Wang was shocked and afraid when he saw the porcelain cup as big as a basin. He just thought that if he wanted to fill the big basin, the blood on his body would have to be drained. But he didn't dare to disobey the master's order, so he had to bite the bullet and said
:"yes"
Hua Bushi naturally did not drain Bu Wang's blood, but he also drew a lot of blood, enough to fill the bottom of the big porcelain cup with a liter.
Bu Wang, who had lost too much blood, turned pale as he watched Hua Bushi move the iron frame and the porcelain cup on it to the stove so that the porcelain cup was on top of the iron pot.
"Go to the fire and try to make the fire burn more vigorously," Hua Bushi ordered.
Bu Wang quickly picked up the fire blower and big cattail leaf fan on the side and used the fire as instructed. Hua Bushi walked to the pile of "medicine" bags in front of the table and quickly picked out five or six kinds, grabbed them into handfuls and threw them into the iron pot.
The liquid in the pot was already boiling. When Bu Wang increased the firepower, it rolled even more violently and a burst of gray steam erupted.
Hua Bushi said: "The effect of this black bone grass juice is to stimulate the medicinal power of these herbs to spread in the steam, and the blood poison will change rapidly. If the medicine penetrates directly, it will definitely be affected by it.
Only by using this method of steaming and fumigation can we measure the response. I hope you must keep the fire strong before I tell you to stop. Otherwise, if the firepower is weak, the medicine emitted will be insufficient and will be related to blood poisoning.
Resisted”
Bu Wang's hands were already a little weak. Hearing Hua Bushi's words, he hurriedly turned up the heat without pausing. He took a few pieces of charcoal from the side and put them into the stove. The charcoal fire in the stove got stronger and stronger.
There is too much steam coming out
These steam mist rose in the air and floated over the large porcelain cup filled with poisonous blood. Hua Bushi observed intently and took a few herbs from the table and put them into the pot.
