When he returned to Changning County again, five full days had passed since he left.
Needless to say, he didn't return for five days, which aroused concern among Sun Siwen and Zhou Qing.
Especially Zhou Qing, he almost thought that Iron Sword Sect had tracked him down and found his master. He was so anxious that he almost got up from the bed where he was lying to look for his master.
Fortunately, Sun Siwen was older, and became more stable especially after becoming an official. He comforted his good friend and apprentice and reassured him that nothing would happen to him.
Because according to Sun Siwen's impression, when he was in Yangmei Town, Lu Yuan often went into the mountains to hunt for several days or even several months.
Now that I haven't come back for five days, it may be that my friend is addicted to hunting and has lost track of time.
Of course, considering the threat from Iron Sword Sect, Sun Siwen was actually a little worried.
Fortunately, these worries all dissipated with Lu Yuan's return.
"Next time Brother Lu is away for such a long time, remember to tell him in advance, otherwise someone will worry to death." After confirming safety, Sun Siwen said this as the first sentence when they met.
"Worried to death?"
Lu Yuan was slightly stunned when he heard this, then looked his friend up and down, shook his head and said, "That shouldn't be the case. Brother Sun should know my habits. I've only been in the mountains for a few days, so I shouldn't worry."
"Who says you won't be worried? Don't forget that you are still in debt to the Iron Sword Sect."
Sun Siwen glared at him, and then said angrily: "I'm okay, mainly because of Xiaoqing. Seeing that your master hasn't come back for a few days, I was so anxious that I couldn't even eat. I kept saying that I was the one who caused you trouble. The blame will go to death."
"Xiao Qing..." Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "It was indeed my negligence."
In the past, he was alone and free. Now I forgot that I still have an apprentice.
'Xiaoqing has just experienced the pain of annihilation of her family and is more sensitive in this regard. It seems that she should pay more attention to this aspect in the future. '
Thinking of the dead Doctor Zhou, Lu Yuan sighed, and then went to find Zhou Qing.
It's not easy to accept a disciple, but don't really worry him to death.
When I saw Zhou Qing again, the boy was lying on the bed, and the miracle doctor Li next to him was changing his dressing.
"Xiao Qing, I heard that you are unwilling to eat well these days." Lu Yuanren's voice came before he entered the room.
"Master!"
When Zhou Qing heard the familiar voice, he immediately sat up from the bed excitedly. Then his unhealed bones broke out, and he cried out "Ah" in pain.
At the same time, the medicine that was being applied on his body suddenly fell off and fell to the ground on the bed, scattering a piece of it.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" Seeing his move, Old Divine Doctor Li next to him was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, saying heartbrokenly: "My medicine, my medicine. No matter what, you spilled it yourself this time, it has nothing to do with me. .
Five taels of silver, and if you pay for the medicine, I will get you a new medicine. "
The old money addict was afraid that he would need another dose of medicine, so he immediately put aside the relationship.
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry."
Zhou Qing also reacted at this time. When he remembered what he had done, his face suddenly turned red with embarrassment and he immediately apologized.
"It's okay." Lu Yuan smiled and waved his hand, then looked at Dr. Li, "Just give me a new medicine. I'll pay for it."
"Okay, I'll go get ready now." When he heard that he could earn another amount of medicine money, the old miracle doctor's eyes suddenly narrowed with joy, and he went out to prepare happily.
After the old miracle doctor left, there were only two people left in the room. Zhou Qing looked at Lu Yuan timidly: "Master, I just, I just..."
Seeing his appearance, Lu Yuan stepped forward, patted Zhou Qing on the head, and said comfortingly: "Don't think too much, just take good care of your injuries. I see that you are recovering well now and can already do things by yourself."
That's good, keep up the good work.
When you can get off the ground and recover as before, I will teach you martial arts. "
Seeing that the master did not blame him, Zhou Qing suddenly smiled and said, "Yes."
…
After comforting his young apprentice, Lu Yuan quickly left and turned around to go about his own business.
Returning to his room, he closed the doors and windows tightly, sat down at the desk, carefully took out the jade box from his arms, placed it on the table, and slowly opened it.
As soon as the lid of the box was exposed, a strange fragrance came out.
In an instant, the internal energy in Lu Yuan's body became more active.
He suppressed the urge to immediately take the opportunity to cultivate his internal strength, and patiently studied the blood jade centipede in the box.
The crystal-like centipede was no longer alive at this time. The body was lying in the jade box. Although several days had passed, there was no sign of decay.
"It's amazing."
Looking at this scene, Lu Yuan couldn't help but marvel.
Should we say that this world is really a martial arts or fairy world?
Without treatment, corpses can die without decaying. This blood jade centipede is truly extraordinary, definitely of some alien bloodline.
"That's what I said, but now what should I do with this body?"
Staring at the crystal centipede body again and again, Lu Yuan felt a little worried and didn't know how to deal with it.
This centipede is obviously of alien blood, and it is of great benefit to him, but because of this, he doesn't know how to make proper use of such a thing with a great origin.
"Is it possible to eat it directly or swallow it raw? Or boil it first or stir-fry it..."
After complaining a few words, Lu Yuan gathered his thoughts and began to seriously think about how to deal with the problem.
First of all, swallowing these raw orally will definitely not work.
Although it has now been confirmed that the centipede's strange fragrance is not harmful, it can activate internal energy and assist in cultivation.
But centipedes are one of the five poisons. This blood jade centipede is an alien species among centipedes. Who knows whether its body is highly poisonous?
Just because the fragrance is okay doesn't mean there's nothing wrong with your body.
With the strangeness of this centipede, if something goes wrong, it will be a fatal problem.
"So we can't gamble. We have to find a proper way to deal with this centipede reasonably. But where can we find a proper way..."
Lu Yuan frowned and thought deeply. His first reaction was to look for it in medical books.
If we can find records of this blood jade centipede in ancient medical books, we will naturally know how to deal with it.
Even if not, by studying pharmacology, you might be able to find a suitable way to use this centipede corpse.
“But searching this way is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It’s still too slow to come up with a feasible solution based solely on my medical knowledge.
This centipede doesn't seem to be rotting or deteriorating now, but as time goes on, who knows if it will become bad?
But it would be funny if the thing broke before I could figure it out.
So actually the best option is to find an experienced doctor with superb medical skills and ask him what he can do. "
As soon as the thought came out, an old doctor who was greedy for money appeared in Lu Yuan's mind.
