She hadn't even been to the kitchen for very long, and when she heard that Yan Jiuniang had asked her to help with the cooking, she was a little confused. She quickly went to find Niu Xiaobao and asked him to help her with some ideas, only to see him looking at her with a doubtful expression, "Weren't you scared away? Why did you come back? "
Yan Jiuniang smiled bitterly, and said: "Which one was scared away? I'm going back to buy medicine! "
"Huh?" Niu Xiaobao was surprised. "You can buy medicine that many times?"
Yan Jiuniang smiled awkwardly, "Last night, when the oil lamp was lit, I could tell that your grandfather had been deeply poisoned. If you don't treat him now, he probably won't live for two more days, so I didn't explain and ran out of the room. Who would have thought that they would also run out, but I don't know if they were scared by your grandfather's appearance or blindly following him! "Right, where's your grandfather?"
"He's dead!" Niu Xiaobao smiled with a hint of regret. "He thought you guys despised him. He couldn't bear it any longer and vomited a mouthful of blood. In the end, he never woke up!"
"Huh?" Yan Jiuniang was slightly startled, her face full of regret, "Can I see him one last time?"
"He's just lying in the house. Go on!" Niu Xiaobao asked.
Seeing that the Village Head's corpse was covered by a mat, she hesitated for a moment. In the end, she did not walk over and said apologetically, "Old man, I'm sorry, I made you misunderstand, I'm sorry!"
At this moment, the herbs had already been removed, everyone walked into the house, quietly waiting for Yan Jiuniang's next instruction, only to see her eyes filled with sadness. Gu Yiyang advised, "Don't be too sad, the old man just misunderstood you!"
"Ai!" Yan Jiuniang let out a heavy sigh, "It's all my fault for being too impatient. Otherwise, he might have been able to wait for me to save him!"
"Not necessarily!" Gu Yiyang smiled bitterly, "The poison is too deep for him to cure!"
When Yan Jiuniang heard this, the regret in her heart had just subsided by more than half. She turned to Mo Yunqi and said, "Since he is already dead, sadness is useless. Is the pot ready? If the ingredients are ready, I will start to concoct the medicinal herbs and prepare to refine them. "
When Mo Yunqi heard this, she rubbed her forehead, then bitterly smiled and said, "How does the pot work? I don't understand! "
"Didn't you make dinner?" Yan Jiuniang asked.
Mo Yunqi was so embarrassed that her face turned red. She couldn't answer for a long time, but she heard Mo Yunzhou say, "If it's her turn to cook at Murong Manor, then she'll die in name only!"
At this point, he suddenly felt that his mouth was dry and his mind was in a mess. His body swayed uncontrollably and he almost fell down. Luckily, Meng Chunlou held him and asked, "Prince Mo, what's wrong?"
Yan Jiuniang took a glance at it and immediately exclaimed, "Not good! "There's poison on the arrow!"
When everyone heard this, their hearts tensed up. Meng Chunlou hurriedly helped him to a room, only to see that there was already a Peng Gao lying there. He bitterly laughed and said, "How can we lie down like that? If you knew earlier, even if Zhu Ergou was not here, you should have asked Wu Weidao for the antidote! "
As he said this, he heard Yan Jiuniang say, "The poison in Young Master Mo's body has already started to spread. I need to pull out an arrow for him to expel the poison, so I'll leave the matters outside to you guys!"
"But if we don't know how to concoct ingredients, how can we concoct ingredients?" Meng Chun Lou asked.
"Ask Qiu Ying!" "She has the prescription in her hand. If you don't understand, you can ask her!" As Yan Jiuniang spoke, she supported Mo Yunzhou and escorted him to the bamboo bed opposite Peng Gao. Then she asked him, "Third Young Master Mo, can you hold on?"
Mo Yunzhou's forehead was covered in sweat. He bitterly smiled and said, "I can handle it!"
Yan Jiuniang smiled slightly, first breaking the arrow's tail with her hand, then saying, "Be careful, I am about to start drawing the arrow!"
"Bring it on!" Mo Yunzhou said grandly.
Yan Jiuniang gripped the arrow tightly, gritted her teeth, and pulled it out abruptly. With a "chi" sound, the arrow flew out, causing Mo Yunzhou to scream out in pain. His eyes rolled up and he fainted from the pain!
Yan Jiuniang threw away the poison arrow and called out, "Chun Mo, bring me my medicine box!"
When Meng Chun Lou heard this sound, she rushed out first, carrying Yan Jiuniang's medicine box as she shouted, "The medicine box is here!"
Yan Jiuniang unhurriedly opened the medicine chest and took out some medicine and gauze, placing them beside the bed. Only then did she say calmly, "He was poisoned by the poison. It would only be good for him to let out a little more blood!"
As she said this, she took a pair of scissors from the box and cut open Mo Yunzhou's clothes. Seeing that the color of the blood coming out from the wound had turned from dark to red, she pressed the gauze on it and waited for the blood to stop flowing. Then she sprinkled the Golden Sore Medicine on it and carefully bandaged it for him.
After taking care of her wounds, Yan Jiuniang smiled and asked, "Aren't you going to get me some water to wash my hands?"
Yan Jiuniang washed her hands while saying, "I am still unable to determine whether or not he was poisoned by the poison. In order to protect his life, I will have to ask Grand Hero Meng to operate the technique to expel the poison, are you willing?"
"Yes!" Meng Chun said.
"Alright, I'll leave this to you!" Yan Jiuniang used a handkerchief to dry her hands, faintly smiled at Meng Chunlou, and said, "Remember, you don't have to force it all out at once, or it will harm your vitality!"
"I got it!" As Meng Chunlou spoke, he walked towards Mo YunZhou and slowly helped him up. He was prepared to use his Qi to expel the poison.
When Yan Jiuniang came out, the pot had already been set up. After all, with Du Jiangsheng around, things like this would not be difficult for him.
Yan Jiuniang glanced at the medicinal ingredients in the pot, then simply asked Autumn Shadow a few questions, before saying, "Light a fire right now, we need to use the shortest amount of time to boil the medicinal ingredients!"
When Xia Yu heard this, she had long since moved some dry wood from the back of the grass hut, and then said with a smile, "Who's in charge of lighting the fire?"
"Of course it's him!" Mo Yunqi smiled and pointed her finger at Gu Yiyang, but Yan Jiuniang said, "He can't do that. He has his own things to do!"
When Gu Yiyang heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Then, what orders does Miss Yan have?"
"Come with me to the forest to find herbs that can restrain the man-eating vine. Without those things, this pot of soup would not be able to cure you!" Yan Jiuniang said.
"How do you do!" Gu Yiyang smiled.
"What about here?" "Who will lead us to something?" Mo Yunqi asked.
Yan Jiuniang smiled slightly and said, "You can ask Qiu Ying for advice on brewing medicine. You can ask Jiang Sheng for the rest. He is a small fry, and is worthy of the big responsibility!"
When Du Jiangsheng heard this, he laughed and said, "Thank you for elder sister Yan's trust, I will take over now!"
When everyone heard this, they burst out into laughter. Yan and Gu, on the other hand, left the thatched cottage to search for herbs.
At this time, the sky was already bright. The morning light illuminated the peaceful atmosphere around the village. Coupled with the refreshing feeling unique to the morning, it made the nearby forest feel a little more lively. Even the fragrance of the flowers became a lot stronger.
Gu Yiyang knitted his brows and walked for a distance before he finally couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart. He asked, "Miss Yan, that man-eating vine is extremely tyrannical, is there really any medicine that can restrain it?"
"All living things in the world are at loggerheads with each other. There are yin and yang, and there is male and female. So you don't have to worry at all!" Yan Jiuniang said.
"But even if there is such a thing, how could it be in the vicinity of Huang An Village?" Gu Yi Yang forced a smile. "If I was a vine farmer, how could I be stupid enough to plant such an object of restraint here?"
Yan Jiuniang smiled indifferently, and said, "It seems like you don't understand the man-eating vine! This plant was unlike trees that could survive on their own. They would have to rely on clinging to other plants to grow, but its toxicity was so strong that normal plants couldn't withstand it. Thus, they had to have plants that could adapt to it. If the killer wants to plant the man-eating vine here, then he must plant the same plant, and this plant is the key to deal with the man-eating vine! "
"You mean, as long as we can find this plant, we can cure the villagers' plague?" Gu Yiyang asked.
"That's right!" This plant has an antibody within it, if you use it in medicine, you can suppress the toxicity of the man-eating vine! " Yan Jiuniang said.
"However, most of the bodies of those villagers have already rotted away. This means that they have been poisoned too deeply. Will there still be enough time to save them?" Gu Yiyang asked.
"Then only God knows!" Yan Jiuniang smiled bitterly, "This is the first time I've seen this poison. I'm not completely sure if it can be cured, but at this moment, we have to be very confident, do you understand?"
"I understand!" Gu Yi Yang nodded. Suddenly, he smelled a rotten stench. He frowned and asked, "Why is it so smelly?"
"This means that we are about to find the man-eating vine!" Yan Jiu Niang's expression also became nervous, "Pay attention to your surroundings. Although this Poisonous Vine won't take the initiative to attack people in broad daylight, it doesn't rule out the possibility of accidents!"
While they were talking, they had already entered a deeper part of the forest. The light here was clearly much dimmer than outside, especially when the trees were tall and big. The leaves were very thick, and the smell of rot was even stronger.
"How many people must have died here? Why is the smell so strong? " Gu Yiyang couldn't help covering his nose with his hand. "I really don't want to stay here any longer!"
Yan Jiuniang took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and handed it to Gu Yiyang, saying, "Try this!"
When he looked at Yan Jiuniang again, she covered him up too. The two of them walked forward a bit, and they saw that the light here was even dimmer, as if it was already dusk. When they looked at the trees again, many of them were already withered, and the flowers and plants had also declined.
"Be careful, we will see the man-eating vine soon!" Yan Jiuniang reminded.
At this time, there was a rustling sound from the grass, and then the grass shook. Yan Jiuniang could not help but say in alarm, "This is bad, it's going to attack!"
When Gu Yiyang heard this, he immediately jumped in front of Yan Jiuniang and unsheathed his sword with a clang. He stared coldly at the back of the bush and softly said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
She looked up and saw a huge python the size of a water bucket coiling around a tree. At this moment, it was spitting out its long tongue as it breathed heavily, and she was so scared that she let out a cry of shock as the giant python swept its tail and actually smashed it down!
Yan Jiu Niang was completely scared stiff by this sudden change. In her panic, Gu Yi Yang grabbed her arm and jumped to the side, barely dodging this heavy blow!
Immediately after, the giant python broke a tree trunk with a "kacha", smashing towards them with an unstoppable force. Gu Yi Yang immediately straightened up, and flew to the side with Yan Jiuniang in his arms. Before his body even touched the ground, the giant python's body rolled on the ground, and actually flipped over, attempting to crush them!
He thrust his sword towards the python's body, causing blood to spurt out all over their bodies. The pain caused the python to turn over on the ground, and with a series of crazy distortions, it crushed the withered grass and scattered the flowers everywhere. Some of the withered trees were also broken and destroyed by the python, causing Gu and Yan to be startled!
Seeing that the python was about to turn its head and attack Gu and Yan, they immediately turned around and ran away. However, many vines suddenly shot out from the darkness, completely blocking the light above their heads. They only felt darkness in front of them as Gu Yi Yang shouted, "Troublesome!"
When Yan Jiuniang heard this, she could not help but shout out, "This is what you call a man-eating vine!"
As she said this, she prepared the canine powder to deal with the man-eating vine from her sleeves, but the countless vines did not seem to take the two of them seriously, but instead pounced towards the giant python, like countless claws of demons locking onto a giant python in the blink of an eye. The giant python also grew angry, wrapping the poisonous vine even tighter, and in that moment, they were intertwining with each other, making it difficult to tell which was the poisonous vine and which was the giant python!
"What's going on? Why are they fighting? " Gu Yiyang asked with a bitter face.
"Perhaps the python's blood stimulated the man-eating vine, which is why they appeared during the day!" Yan Jiuniang tried to analyze.
"Then what should we do?" Gu Yiyang asked.
"Just you wait!" Anyway, I can't escape now! " Yan Jiuniang said.
Sometimes, when it stabbed the wrong place, it would stab the other vines, causing the poisonous vine to feel excruciating pain. Gu Yiyang sometimes turned around to look at the giant python when he heard this, only to see countless of spikes crazily stabbing the wrong place, sometimes stabbing the other vines, causing the poisonous vine to feel pain, relaxing a little, if it stabbed the giant python, its entire body would shake, making a lot of noise.
Perhaps the only thing that could prove its existence was that pile of bones and the remaining snake skin and blood on the ground!
The poisonous vines seemed to have eaten enough and slowed down. They slowly withdrew, forgetting that there were actually two living beings hidden underneath them!
Gu Yiyang looked at them as they flew over his head, and couldn't help but say angrily: "This thing is too scary! One day, we must get rid of them! "
When he said this, Yan Jiuniang hurried to cover his mouth, but it was already too late because those poisonous vines had already discovered them!
