Considering An Murong's safety, Su Yi first took An Murong and others to the teahouse to inquire about the news, while Hua Ruxue followed Li Buyu and left to inquire about the Li family.
The two of them wandered in the alley for half an hour before shaking off their tails. A quarter of an hour later, Li Buyu stopped in front of a secluded house.
Hua Ruxue looked around and made sure that this was still the outer city. The third young master of the Li family was suffering from a strange poison and was unable to practice. Would he come to the outer city in person?
She couldn't be sure whether the young master Li Buyu was talking about was the third young master of the Li family or someone else. The only thing she was sure of was that she was going to help people detoxify.
The house has four entrances and four exits. There are clusters of flowers in the front and weeping willows in the back. There is a lake with green water, a vermilion pavilion in the lake, and eight small courtyards, scattered in an orderly manner.
Hua Ruxue took a fancy to the south-facing house in the corner at a glance. The sunshine was very good and there was a patch of purple milkvetch in front of the house.
Guanyun City is built on the Broken Star Mountain Range, with jagged rocks and no grass growing. However, this house has fertile soil, red flowers, green trees and a pavilion. It looks like a wealthy family at first glance.
Walking to the south-facing house, Li Buyu bowed and said, "Master, come to Miss Xiang."
After finishing her words, Hua Ruxue felt her eyes flicker, and two people playing chess appeared out of thin air under the eaves.
The man in black on the left is holding a black chess piece. He has a plump figure, his hair is hanging down on his temples, his eyes are as bright as a torch, and his thick eyebrows are furrowed, showing no anger and self-importance.
The chess player sitting on the right, his round nails without a trace of blood, were only half as good as the white jade chess piece. He was wearing a thick mink fur, only revealing his slender neck.
His hair is tied up in a jade crown, his lips are almost colorless, and his cheeks are pale and sick, but his narrow eyes are shining brightly. Just looking at his focused expression, it is difficult to imagine that he is a dying person.
When the two heard Li Buyu's reply, they put down the chess pieces in their hands and turned to look at the person.
As an invitee, Hua Ruxue naturally had no reason to speak first, so the three of them looked at each other in pairs, and no one said a word.
After a long silence, the man in black spoke first, with a deep voice and a searching look in his sharp eyes. He said, "Miss Xiang claims to be a medical fairy. I wonder where he studied?"
"Senior invites junior here just to ask this question?"
Hua Ruxue saw the distrust in his eyes. He had brought her here even though he didn't care about the people he employed, but she still asked such useless questions. She didn't want to waste this good time on a verbal dispute.
"Junior has important matters to attend to. If senior has nothing else to do, I will leave first."
After saying that, Hua Ruxue turned around. She was not the one who was anxious to treat the patient. There was more than one way to find out whether Li was related to the Sword Sect.
As for offending Li? We have already offended Mr. An, so what if we add another Li family?
"Wait a minute."
The sound was as muted as the sound of falling spring snow, and just like him, it seemed as if it would be blown away by the wind the next moment.
Hua Ruxue looked at the man. His face was thin and sickly, and his voice was a little weak. Only his bright black eyes showed a bit of anger.
Those eyes conveyed a message: He was not afraid of life and death, so he wanted to live no matter how difficult it was.
He wants to live and live well.
Just this glance left a deep impression on Hua Ruxue's heart. The look in her eyes that looked forward to something reminded her of herself.
She had also been so eager to become stronger, and she was willing to respond to his expectation to live, just like Xiao Shitou responded to her expectation to become stronger.
"I'm Li Changzhi. I'm going to visit you three times at home. Girl, please call me Li San."
The man in black frowned and uttered two words: "Li Chu."
Li Chu is Li Changzhi's eldest brother and the next head of the Li family.
Since Hua Ruxue can see Li Chu, it means that she has passed their test, and Yi Jing is indeed from the Li family.
Just because she mistakenly identified the nine-pink red in An Murong is not enough to prove anything. From the Li family's point of view, she was most likely a member of the An family, and she cooperated to stage such a show.
Only if she detoxifies the poison they personally administered can she prove her ability.
Killing An Murong with one day's view can be regarded as killing three birds with one stone. If Hua Ruxue cannot detoxify, then they will lose a mortal enemy, and no one can find Li's head.
If Hua Ruxue could figure it out, after seeing the chaotic internal fighting of the An family, she would definitely stay away from An family and would not join the An family and become An family's lackey.
What's more, after this disaster, Hua Ruxue will definitely become a thorn in the side of Second Master An. If she wants to continue to stay in Guanyun City, she needs the protection of the forces opposite to the An family.
And Li Shi is a good choice if he wants something from her.
"Young Master Li, Third Young Master Li." Hua Ruxue acted like she was listening attentively. She only hoped that these two people would quickly ask for an antidote, and then she could openly inquire about the news about the Swordsman Sect.
"I rashly invited Miss Xiang to come, but I failed to visit in person. I hope she won't blame you."
A gust of warm wind blew, and Li Zhizhi gently wrapped his coat tightly. He was standing in the sun, his face pale and almost transparent. The gentle breeze at noon in early spring blew on him, making his voice tremble, as if he was cold. To the heart.
"Ah Zhi!" Upon seeing this, Li Chu quickly closed the chess table, raised his hand to set up a barrier to block the all-pervasive breeze, and then took out a hand stove and stuffed it into Li Chang's arms.
Young Master Li's worry about Young Master Li San is not fake, but there is some truth in it.
"Thank you, brother." Li Zangzhi's bloodless fingertips turned pale pink under the warmth of the hand stove.
Li Chu's eyes changed from the sharp and probing look before, leaving only unconcealable worry. He turned to face Hua Ruxue and said in a slightly softer voice:
"I was the one who was rude to Miss Xiang just now. I invited her here today just for one thing. I also asked her to diagnose Ah Zhi's pulse."
Hearing the words, Hua Ruxue stepped forward and put her hand on Li Changzhi's wrist. The slender wrist was only skin and bones, and it felt extremely cold, as if it had just been taken out of an ice cave. Even if it had just been held by the hand stove, the wrist There was no warmth at all.
His pulse was weak and weak, so he depended on the elixir to survive. Once the medicine was stopped, he would die immediately.
Li Zhizhi's condition is far worse than she thought, and she must detoxify as soon as possible.
I don’t know how this man managed to stand up and still be able to play chess with Li Chu. This was probably perseverance.
Seeing Hua Ruxue retracting his hand, Li Chu asked with a hint of hope: "How is the situation?"
Hua Ruxue thought for a moment and gave a relatively broad time: "One month."
A trace of disappointment flashed in Li Zhizhi's eyes when he heard this, and then he returned to his original state. He put his hand on the stove again and said in a weak voice:
"Mr. Chen also said that there is only one month left."
Li Chu and Li Buyu couldn't hide their grief. This was the 109th doctor to treat Li Changzhi, and the period of treatment had changed from five years at the beginning to one month now.
They only regretted that they could not protect Li Changzhi, and could only watch him become thinner and thinner, and listen to the doctor's words that the time of death was getting closer.
Maybe in the future, when everyone mentions Li Changzhi in casual chat, they will only sigh and say "Jiang Yingcai."
Li Chu and Li Buyu suppressed the grief and anxiety in their hearts, and each promised: "There are so many doctors in the world, there must be one who can cure you."
"I will try my best to find it."
Seeing this situation, Hua Ruxue understood that the three of them had misunderstood. I don’t know how many doctors and alchemists Li Chu invited to see her, and how many times she was disappointed, so much so that even the date she mentioned turned out to be the date of her death.
"You three have misunderstood." Hua Ruxue said sternly: "I only want to ask Master Li San one thing. Do you want to live a long life, or do you want to work hard to get back to your old self?"
"What do you mean?" Li Chu was stunned for a moment. Was he dying? Back to normal? What does this mean?
Li Changzhi was surprised for a moment, and then his bright black eyes shone with a strange light. He didn't know how strong he was, and he tightened his grip on the heater in his hand, his voice trembling.
"Can you please explain it carefully to the girl?"
Hua Ruxue became nervous when she saw the sudden nervousness of the three people. She seemed to feel the weight of life.
She took a deep breath and explained slowly:
"This poison is called Huang Quan Shi. If an ordinary person is poisoned by this poison, he will die within a quarter of an hour. Young Master Li San has already entered the golden elixir when he was poisoned. It is at the critical moment of breakthrough. The toxins enter the Dantian with the movement of spiritual energy and gather on the golden elixir. As for the golden elixir turning into a poisonous elixir, the breakthrough failed, and the Dantian tendons were severely damaged, making it impossible to practice."
Li Chu was very excited when he heard this. More than a hundred doctors checked his pulse, but no one knew what kind of poison it was. Some even asserted that it was the sequelae of a failed breakthrough!
"At that time, Ah Zhi failed to break through, and a month later she suddenly lost all her cultivation. Unexpectedly, Ah Zhi was poisoned while in retreat!" Li Chu said guiltily: "If I hadn't gone out at that time, maybe you, Ah Zhi..."
"Brother, don't be sad. Since Miss Xiang knows this poison, she must know how to break it."
"There are two methods at the moment. One, I can completely seal the underworld in your Dantian for an instant. This method only requires three acupunctures. After that, you can live like an ordinary person."
The joy of Li Chu and Li Buyu is self-evident. They have waited for five years and been disappointed countless times. In the end, they only waited for the words of Mr. Chen, an eighth-grade alchemist: There is only one month left!
But now, what did they hear? The antidote!
Help! Azhi is saved!
"What about the other one?" Li Zangzhi felt uneasy in his heart. He knew that it was not easy to survive, but at this moment, he was vaguely looking forward to something.
"To be honest, I have only seen the moment of underworld in medical inheritance. To develop this poison, the heartbreak grass that grows in the underworld is needed. The ghosts are extinct and the underworld has been closed for a long time. Logically speaking, this poison should be extinct."
The medical inheritance was brought by Hua Ruxue from Jiugu Mountain. Because there was only one copy of the inheritance, it was not packaged and sold together with those high-level skills, but was placed on the gate of Qingyang Mountain for the world to understand.
These inheritances were originally aimed at Hua Ruxue, and naturally others could not understand them. Later, the inheritances suddenly disappeared one after another, and everyone speculated for a long time without guessing who got it.
Hua Ruxue spoke out at this time, firstly to tell them "where to learn from", and secondly to explain that her medical skills have been recognized by the medical inheritance, so that they can rest assured.
Besides, this moment of underworld is the poison of the underworld needed to practice "Invulnerability to One Hundred Poisons", including the seven poisonous grasses that grow in the underworld, and the heartbroken grass growing on the cliff is one of them.
But 30,000 years ago, the evil spirit was sealed in the underworld, and the road to hell disappeared. Since then, there have been no more ghosts in the human world. Logically speaking, there is no more heartbroken grass in the world, and there is no more moment of hell.
I thought I wouldn't encounter Huangquan for a moment, but I didn't expect to encounter it in Guanyun City.
"Does the antidote to this poison require something from the underworld?" Li Chu was surprised. He didn't expect the poison to be so difficult. The words "underworld" and "ghosts" had not been mentioned in many years.
Thirty thousand years ago, there were no monsters in the world, only evil ghosts everywhere, and monks practiced Taoism to kill evil ghosts.
Suddenly one day, the spiritual veins dried up, the spiritual energy in the human world was thin, and the evil spirit was strong. Hundreds of ghosts walked at night to feed on the living souls, causing all life to be ruined.
So God sent down punishment, the ghost clan was destroyed, and the underworld was closed.
