Chapter 385
385 Dragon’s Tooth town at the bottom of Dragon extinction mountain
After a moment of silence in the chamber, Li Chu pondered for a moment after listening to langyuguan’s story, ” “Speaking of the old crickets in the Dragon end mountain, crickets.”
He remembered that he had just seen an old woman who had almost crushed all the heroes outside Yaowang town. It was said that she was also of the age of a young girl, and they seemed somewhat similar. He didn’t know if they were related, so he told lang Yuguan about it.
“I’ll send someone to invite her over,” lang Yuguan replied.
After instructing his disciples to do so, he said, ” “Several junior brothers have gone to find shizun, so the doctors in the outer regions are of no use. Now, I’m the only one supporting the town, and I have no choice but to reduce the number of patients I receive every day. Alas, if shizun were here, he would definitely treat those patients no matter what.”
Not long after, the disciple invited the girl who looked like an old woman over, but she saw her trembling steps, clearly no different from an old man. Only when he caught a glimpse of Li Chu’s eyes that lit up could he clearly see the girl’s expression.
Seeing her like this, lang Yuguan frowned. After checking her pulse and asking, his expression gradually became serious.
“Please wait for a moment.” He said and ran into the inner room, where the sound of pages being flipped could be heard.
After a while, he returned with a heavy expression.
“If I’m not wrong, granny, Qianqian, this lady, you’re not sick. You’ve been parasitized by a strange worm called the ‘Luan worm’.”
“Ah? It’s actually a bug!”
Hearing this, the old woman’s face turned pale with shock. After a long while, she asked,”What’s that?”
“……”
Lang Yuguan could only explain to her, ” it’s a rare and strange worm that lives on living creatures. It can absorb their lifespan and turn it into its own power. Usually, the living body that it parasitized would die not long after. Therefore, the ‘rice worm’ was also known as the ‘life stealing worm’ in the South. This kind of insect hasn’t appeared for at least a thousand years in the ancient records.”
“The worm has a special characteristic, that is, it can not move. After the host died, it would still attach itself to the corpse. Therefore, it was only possible to be parasitized by coming into contact with the corpses or coffins of those who died bizarrely. Young lady, did you touch these before you fell ill?”
“Of course not.” The old woman was a little dazed by lang Yuguan’s words and shook her head repeatedly. She then asked,”Mr. Lang, is there any way to save my life?”
“It’s not difficult to get rid of the worm, but the worm in your body should have grown very big by now, and it has also sucked away your lifespan. If you rashly get rid of it, you won’t have many days left to live. I can first use medicine to control it, so that it can not continue to harm you, and then see if it can return this life back to you, Yingluo.”
When lang Yuguan said this, he was also a little hesitant. It seemed that this was probably a blind spot in his knowledge.
The patient himself seemed to have noticed something as well. At that moment, his expression was not good, and he fell silent.
Lang Yuguan seemed to recall something and asked, ” “May I know where you are from?”
“Dragon’s Tooth town,” “The Dragon’s Tooth town under the Dragon jueling mountain,” the old woman answered.
“Hiss.”
A cloud of doubt rose in lang Yuguan’s eyes.
……
“Yingluo, why does this world seem to be crooked?”
Outside the clinic, Wang longqi woke up in a daze. He only felt that the scene in front of him seemed to tilt to a large angle.
He blinked hard and realized that it was his neck that was crooked.
He wanted to turn his head around, but he immediately let out an ” Aiyo “. my neck hurts.
“Seventh young master, don’t move.” Seeing this, elder du, who was watching over them, said with great concern, ” “You rest for a while. You’ll be fine in a while.”
I think I saw a girl just now. Wang longqi held his head and tried to recall what happened before he fainted.
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a clatter.
In front of him, elder DU’s face instantly turned cold. He raised his hand and actually made the sound of a sharp blade being unsheathed, and he began to rub it.
“Don’t blame me for being impolite if you keep thinking about it.”
Wang longqi shivered and immediately remembered what had happened. He shook his head obediently, indicating that he didn’t dare to think about it anymore.
“Where’s Li Chu?” He asked again.
“Oh, master and elder Chang Chun’s disciple are discussing some matters inside. They’ve already examined you.” “There’s almost no blood left in the poison,” dulanc replied.
Wang longqi was about to be happy when he suddenly realized that the order of his words was wrong. He covered his face with his hands. no, I’m a little dizzy. I’m going out for a walk.
He stood up and walked out of the clinic.
The sky outside was a little dark, and the air was a little dry. The wind carried the sand and dust from the North, which was very different from the climate in Jiangnan.
Just as he was feeling a little more relaxed, he twisted his neck and saw two women walking over from the left side of the path.
The one in front had a graceful figure, a wide waist, and a full-moon chest, but her figure was enough to captivate people. Moreover, her face was equally eye-catching. She had a hibiscus-like face and a pair of natural-born eyes that were filled with love. She was indescribably charming.
Wang longqi recognized her at a glance. She was the woman in the attic just now. He felt his heart beat faster, and an ominous feeling rose.
“I’m finished.” He wailed in his heart, she’s smiling at me!
this is a good opportunity. Wen Xiang looked at Wang longqi with a smile.
In fact, she saw that Wang longqi was alone and thought it was a good time for them to meet. She tried to send him a look to attract his attention.
However, in Wang longqi’s eyes, it was seduction.
Or rather, it was murder.
At this critical moment, another roar came from behind Wang longqi, ” “Swish!”
As if Thunder had struck the ground, a black shadow appeared out of thin air. A hand blade was raised high and fell heavily.
Wang longqi’s body went soft without any room for resistance.
Plop.
He fell to the ground again.
“Hehe.” The Grim Reaper’s dark face behind him sneered. you still dare to look at women? ”
After sneering, Lao du dragged Wang longqi by one leg and slowly dragged him into the clinic.
Emotionless.
“This bi an …”
Wen Xiang and the little servant girl were once again shocked by him, and they were so frightened that they stood still.
After a while, old du and Wang longqi disappeared. They recovered.
how much hatred does he have for her? ” the maidservant was still in shock. he didn’t even say anything and was so heavy-handed.
“No!”
Wen Xiang suddenly seemed to have seen through something, her eyes shining with the light of a famous detective.
“This isn’t hatred, it’s love.”
“Ha?” The maidservant was stunned.
you’re still young and inexperienced. It’s normal that you can’t think of it. Wen Xiang revealed a smile as if she had seen a lot of things. these two times, I only exchanged a glance with the contact. There was no conversation at all. It was impossible for me to be exposed. The old Daoist had hit him because he didn’t want him to see beautiful women. Then I guess there’s only one possibility, Yingluo is jealous.”
“Yi Yi Yi”
The maidservant grinned.
“Looking at that contact’s wretched appearance and lecherous temperament, I thought he would be a senior scholar. I didn’t think that Yingluo and them would actually be Yingluo.”
“You have to give them enough understanding.” Wen Xiang sighed. times have changed. Men and women are the same.
……
Li Chu ended his conversation with lang Yuguan and walked out of the clinic. He saw old du dragging an unconscious Wang longqi in.
“He still hasn’t woken up?” Li Chu asked.
“He’s awake, but he’s fainted again,” elder du replied coldly.
Li Chu nodded understandingly. it’s been hard on him.
“What did the doctor say?” old du asked again.
“Wang longqi’s poison is very difficult to cure. I have to go to the Dragon-ceasing mountain and find the two divine doctors, elder Chang Chun and elder Xuan Hu.” you guys don’t have to come with me, ” Li Chu said. let him stay here and recuperate. You can take care of him here.
“Don’t worry, master,” “I’ll definitely take good care of seventh young master,” elder du said with a nod.
Li Chu looked at Wang longqi’s neck, which was almost twisted 90 degrees and sticking to his shoulder, and nodded gently, ” I’m not worried about you.
Without further ado, Li Chu left the town.
It was getting late, and according to his usual style, he didn’t like to be in a hurry. But it was different this time. According to the current situation, Wang longqi would either die in seven days or be chopped to death by old DU’s hand.
So he couldn’t afford to procrastinate.
As soon as he stepped out of the town’s Gate, he heard a gust of wind above him. Li Chu looked up and saw a huge Goshawk descending from the sky.
On the back of the goshawk stood a group of people in white, similar to the disciples of the Yanzhao school.
Li Chu frowned.
As expected, when the goshawk landed, the disciples of the Yanzhao school carried out a stretcher. A man was lying on the stretcher. It was Zhen guanxi, the man who had punched Li Chu and paralyzed half of his body.
“Brother guanxi, it’s him!”
The few disciples immediately cried out when they saw Li Chu.
“That’s right, it’s him! Martial uncle!” Guanxi bro, who was on the stretcher, immediately shouted, ” he injured me so badly just because of a small disagreement and even stole my things!
In fact, with Zhen guanxi’s current condition, he was no longer suitable to seek revenge.
At least not now.
But the situation didn’t allow it!
He actually had something hidden in his heart. He came here because he had a mission that he had to complete. However, before he could even enter the gates of Yaowang town, he had been beaten to this state.
What was worse was that when he returned, he found that the memento he had been carrying was gone!
If this news were to be sent back to the mountain, he would probably be hung on a flagpole as an apology.
Therefore, he didn’t care about his serious injuries and quickly cried and begged his second uncle in the Yanzhao school to seek revenge for him.
In fact, seeking revenge was a small matter, but finding the token was a big matter.
As he shouted, a person from the crowd of disciples behind him stepped forward.
This person was dressed in white with a linen robe and a bamboo hat on his head. When he lowered his head, his face was covered, only revealing a stubble. He had his arms around his shoulders and a sword in his chest.
This man was the second uncle master of the Yanzhao school, li zongrui.
He was also a well-known figure in the northern underworld.
“You’re so silly!”
Li zongrui raised his head, as if he wanted to say something ruthless.
However, the “stop” that came after that made all his words stuck in his mouth.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom
Li Chu didn’t hesitate at all. He started pointing like a machine gun, locking all the disciples of the Yanzhao school in place, including guanxi bro who was on the stretcher.
After that, he said,”first, I didn’t hit him. To be exact, he hit me.” Secondly, I didn’t steal anything from him. Third, I really don’t have time to waste with you, so I’m a bit more direct. If I have offended you, please forgive me. ”
After a very polite explanation, he felt that he had expressed enough goodwill. He believed that after these people recovered, they would feel his politeness and would not come to find trouble with him again.
Hence, he rode on the pure yang sword and broke through the air.
In fact, with his current level 80 spiritual power, if he used all his strength, he could probably freeze someone for a year and a half. In that case, it would be no different from killing someone.
He had already restrained a lot of his spiritual Qi to these disciples of the Yanzhao school to ensure that they would regain their freedom in ten days. For xiuzhe, setting a time limit of ten days to half a month was nothing.
This was already a rather gentle method.
However, it was a little awkward.
The handsome guys who were frozen didn’t seem to think so.
Li zongrui’s head was still half-lowered, and he was probably confused.”Where did this immobilization technique come from? how can it be so powerful? I only f * cking said one word and didn’t even show my face, hey Yingluo!”
Brother guanxi laid on the stretcher and wailed in his heart.”I’m already like this, do you need to reserve me again? Don’t you think it’s unnecessary? With me like this, I can’t even go to the contact to inform him that I lost the token. Ah, forget it, just kill me. ”
……
Soon, Li Chu arrived at the Dragon’s Tooth town at the foot of the Dragon’s end mountain.
Dragon’s Tooth town was a small town at the southernmost tip of the Dragon’s end mountain. Those who wanted to Enter the Dragon’s end mountain would usually come here to prepare or find a guide.
It was not a good idea to go straight into the vast Dragon-ending mountain to look for someone. Li Chu wanted to explore the town first to see if he could find some clues.
However, the moment he landed, he realized that the town looked a little strange.
Although it was late, it was still bright in the Twilight.
It was supposed to be after dinner, the time for the townspeople to come out for activities. However, there was not a single person in the streets and alleys of Dragon’s Tooth town.
Moreover, on this Street, almost six out of ten shops had ‘white silk’ hanging on them, as if someone had died in them. If one were to listen carefully, one could still hear the sound of crying in the town.
What was going on?
Li Chu looked left and right in confusion.
In addition, he also noticed that a pungent mist had begun to rise in the surroundings, gradually enveloping the entire town.
After some thought, he knocked on the door of one of the houses that made some noise.
Du, du.
When he knocked on the door, he also found a fragrant medicine bag hanging on the door.
Not long after, a middle-aged woman opened the door and said angrily, ” “Who’s there? If you’re impatient, you still dare to knock at the door when the sun has set. If you don’t want to live, our family will still be tired of living.”
When she opened the door and saw Li Chu’s face, she suddenly stopped talking. She blinked and quickly pulled Li Chu into the yard. come in and talk.
“I’m sorry to disturb you. Actually, I’m only here to inquire about some things.”
Li Chu wanted to decline her enthusiasm, but the woman said, ” the miasma outside is very strong. If you smell it too much, you won’t be able to survive. You have to come in and say whatever you want to know!
So it was miasma.
Only then did Li Chu realize that. He touched his body and felt that there was nothing wrong with him, so he was relieved.
“Little Daoist priest, what do you want to ask by coming so late?” The woman said.
“I would like to ask if you’ve seen any traces of the elderly eternal spring elder and Xuanhu elder in your town. I’m here to look for them.” Li Chu asked directly.
“Oh, the two old miracle doctors.” The woman actually knew something. She said, ” “They did come to our town and taught us how to formulate a prescription to resist the miasma. However, they said that the source of the miasma is still in the Dragon jueling mountain, so they ran into the mountain.”
“Oh?” “Do you know where they went in the Dragon-ending mountain?” Li Chu asked.
“I don’t know about that.” The woman shook her head and said,”but Wang er should know that he was the guide for the two old divine doctors.”
“Wang er?” “Where is this Wang er now?” Li Chu asked again.
it’s so late. He should be sleeping at widow Liu’s house. The woman said after some thought.
“What?” Li Chu felt that something was amiss.
“Little Daoist priest, don’t think too much.” The woman waved her hand and smiled, ” “He’s widow Liu’s husband.”
