Chapter 237: The Poisoned Man
"It's Yun Cong, are your injuries healed?" Huang Xiao couldn't help but ask when he saw that it was Li Yuncong who came in.
"It's been good a long time ago, uncle, have you encountered any trouble, why did it take so long to come over?" Li Yuncong asked, Huang Xiao had never come over before, and he was quite worried that something would happen to Huang Xiao. Because I heard what Uncle Tai said, Huang Xiao's letter was still brought by a psychic Dapeng bird, not himself. Moreover, a month has passed, and he also knows that countless people in the rivers and lakes have died in the Changchun Mountains, and these rivers and lakes have already spread. So he has always been worried that if Huang Xiao meets any masters, he may not be spared.
"It's been a bit delayed, how long has it been since Uncle Master came?" Huang Xiao asked.
Li Yuncong didn't ask any more questions, and replied: "Uncle Taishi has been here for twenty days, and he has been here all these days. ”
"Twenty days?" Huang Xiao felt a little strange in his heart, it stands to reason that these few days are enough to detoxify, why did the master stay here for so long, is it to wait for himself?
"Yes, Uncle Huang, what kind of poison do you say can be difficult for us in this world? But there are really such strange and strange poisons in the world, strange things. Li Yuncong said with some emotion.
"What's the matter? This poison is very tricky?" Hearing Li Yuncong's words, Huang Xiao understood in his heart that the master was not waiting for himself, but this poison was probably not so simple, so it took so much time. In this way, Huang Xiao was a little relieved, if this master really waited for so many days because of himself, his sin would be great.
"Yes, listening to Uncle Taishi, I'm afraid it will take some time. Li Yuncong said.
"Let's go, you take me to see the master. Huang Xiao said.
Li Yuncong hurriedly led the way in front, followed by Huang Xiao, and soon arrived at the door of a room in the backyard.
The two paused at the door, and then Huang Xiao stepped forward to knock on the door, but before Huang Xiao could walk to the door. I heard a voice from inside, "Come in!"
"Yes, Master!" Huang Xiao replied with a respectful voice, and then pushed the door in.
When Huang Xiao entered the room, he saw Wang Yuantu sitting behind the desk, writing something.
After Li Yuncong followed Huang Xiao in, he followed him honestly, not daring to say a word. He is also one of the more troublesome in the 'Valley of the Poison God', but it depends on who is in front of him. The person in front of him is the Taishi Uncle, and his skills are unfathomable. Even if his master mentions it, he is full of admiration. In the past, with his identity, it was extremely difficult to see this uncle.
After standing for a while, Wang Yuantu raised his head and looked at Huang Xiao and said lightly, "Do you know who this poisoned person is?"
Huang Xiao was stunned for a moment, he didn't know what his master meant, of course he knew who the poisoned person was, it was Li Xia's father, of course, now that the master uncle has shown it to others, he must know better than himself. How do you ask yourself?
Without waiting for Huang Xiao to answer, Wang Yuantu suddenly snorted coldly and said, "If you don't find out who it is, let Uncle Gu Zhong come to treat you?" What do you want to do?"
Huang Xiao was a little panicked in his heart, he didn't know why his master was so angry, he set his eyes on Li Yuncong. Li Yuncong stood aside tremblingly, and he didn't dare to breathe. He stayed with this uncle for more than 20 days, but he never saw him get angry. However, when he saw Huang Xiao's inquiring gaze towards him, he could only shake his head slightly, how could he know why this Taishi Uncle was angry. Why are you angry?
"Uncle Master, isn't it Li Xia's father?" asked Huang Xiao.
"Hmph, you have the face to ask, do you know who they are?" Wang Yuantu said coldly.
Huang Xiao is clueless now. I don't know what Wang Yuantu is talking about.
"Forget it, this matter doesn't have much to do with you!" Wang Yuantu suddenly waved his hand and sighed.
"Uncle Master, who is this person?" Huang Xiao saw that his Uncle Master seemed to be a little angry, so he asked in a low voice.
"Li Jiqian!" Wang Yuantu replied lightly.
"Who is Li Jiqian?" Huang Xiao pondered in his heart, hearing this name should be Li Xia's father, right?
Suddenly, Huang Xiao's face changed, and he exclaimed: "The envoy of the military festival of Dingyan, Li Jiqian, the king of Xia?"
"Who else could there be?" Wang Yuantu replied coldly.
Huang Xiao didn't expect that this Li Xia's father turned out to be Li Jiqian, he guessed that Li Xia's origin was not small, but he never thought that he would be Li Jiqian's son, so this Li Xia's name is probably just a pseudonym.
Now Huang Xiao also knows why Wang Yuantu is angry, after all, for the Great Song Dynasty, this Li Jiqian is treason, and after attaching to the Khitan, he invades the Great Song Dynasty frontier every year. Although Wang Yuantu is a native of the rivers and lakes, he is also a native of the Great Song Dynasty, so naturally he will not have any good impression of Li Jiqian. When he knew that he had come to detoxify Li Jiqian, he was naturally very unhappy.
"However, Yun Cong always owes them a favor, and this detoxification can be regarded as repayment!" Wang Yuantu knew that Huang Xiao couldn't be blamed for everything, after all, Huang Xiao didn't know their true identities. Besides, even if they knew their true identity, would they be able to owe this person a favor and not repay it? If they said that their request was excessive, their 'Poison God Valley' would naturally not agree, but it was not easy for them to refuse such a thing as detoxification.
"Uncle Master, what kind of poison is it?" Huang Xiao was very curious in his heart, he knew that his master Uncle was definitely one of the most powerful in the valley in terms of using poison, and what could make him feel a little tricky, then this poison was definitely not simple.
Wang Yuantu shook his head and said: "I don't know what this poison is, but this poison shouldn't be here, it should be a foreign poison, maybe some kind of chronic poison in Tibet." ”
Hearing this, Huang Xiao also understood in his heart, although it was said that the 'Poison God Valley' was very knowledgeable about poison, it was impossible to know all the poisons in the world.
"Uncle Master, congratulations on discovering another strange poison!" Huang Xiao congratulated.
"Okay, you can't be so sloppy in the future, even if you want to save someone, you have to know the identity of that person. ”
Huang Xiao heard Wang Yuantu say this, that is, he no longer pursued himself. In fact, he also knew very well in his heart that his master was probably very interested in this poison, even if he didn't let him detoxify, if he knew that there was such a strange poison, he would agree to detoxify it for free. Because this is a new strange poison, this is very attractive to Wang Yuantu, especially if it can be detoxified, which is Wang Yuantu's goal.
"Huh, what are your injuries?" Wang Yuantu was a little displeased with Huang Xiao's reckless behavior just now, so he didn't notice Huang Xiao's situation for a while. Now after an investigation, he found that there seemed to be nothing wrong with the meridians in Huang Xiao's body, Huang Xiao's meridians were injured, and he knew that he would not live long, so he was surprised to see Huang Xiao's fine appearance now.
"Could it be this trip to Changchun Mountain? I heard Yun Cong say, you are also there?" asked Wang Yuantu.
Huang Xiao nodded and said, "Yes, maybe it was the providence of heaven that allowed my nephew to find the glimmer of life in Gu Zhong's mouth." ”
Huang Xiao didn't say much, and Wang Yuantu didn't ask more, just smiled with relief. This is a person's chance, he can see that Huang Xiao doesn't want to say more, so he won't ask Huang Xiao how to repair the meridians, everyone always has a little secret. He wasn't curious enough to force his juniors to tell some secrets he didn't want to tell.
Li Yuncong didn't understand the words between the two, but he didn't dare to ask, looking at the words between the two, it didn't seem to be a bad thing. Could it be that there are any injuries on Uncle Huang?
"Uncle Master, this poison has cost you so much time, you really can count the world's strange poisons, right?" Huang Xiao didn't want to say more on this issue, so he changed the topic and returned to the poison.
"Naturally, I have also studied exotic poisons, but this poison is a little strange, very weird. When Wang Yuantu said this, he was not worried at all because the poison was not easy to solve, but was very excited.
"After being poisoned, the vitality in the human body will slowly pass away, and the life of the poisoned person will be equivalent to ten days or more for one day. Wang Yuantu naturally knew that Huang Xiao didn't know, so he explained.
"Ten days in one day?, wouldn't someone who could have lived for ten years only live for one year after being poisoned?" Huang Xiao was surprised, this poison was really weird.
"It stands to reason that this is the case, but as time goes by, the poison will become more and more toxic, and then ten years may only live for half a year, or even less. Wang Yuantu said.
"Then can this poison be cured?" Huang Xiao hurriedly asked, he didn't know how long this Li Jiqian had been poisoned, if it was too long, I was afraid he wouldn't last long.
"I can concoct the antidote in a few days, but even if I detoxify this poison, I won't be able to return the vitality that had passed before. Wang Yuantu said.
"It's good to be able to detoxify! This Li Jiqian should be about forty years old, even if some life is lost, I'm afraid he can live for decades, right?" asked Huang Xiao.
"You underestimate this poison too much, and he has been poisoned for at least more than a year, even if I remove this poison now, his life will not survive for a few years. Li Jiqian can also be regarded as a hero, but he didn't expect to end up like this. Wang Yuantu said with a smile.
"How many years?" Huang Xiao didn't expect Li Jiqian to be so deeply poisoned.
"Okay, at this time, let's just talk to each other, don't talk nonsense, we are only responsible for detoxification, and we can't take care of the rest. Wang Yuantu said.
"Yes, my nephew wrote it down. Huang Xiao replied respectfully.
It's really hard to talk nonsense, how can this Li Jiqian also be the king of Xia, here, although he is not called the emperor, but there is no difference between him and the emperor. The more such an identity, the more important it is to his own life, especially taboo. Maybe, even if he saves him, he will still be hated by him.
Although it is said that the 'Poison God Valley' is not afraid, it is always troublesome, after all, Li Jiqian can become the king here, in addition to having hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers in his hands, that is, there are many masters to rely on.
"Senior Wang, junior Li Deming greets!" At this time, a voice sounded outside the door. (To be continued......)
