"Can you understand those medical books?"

As the sun set, Dr. Lu stood in front of the counter, bathing in the last ray of sunshine of the day, and then asked Pei Wende, who had just come out of the inner room.

"It's okay, I can probably understand a little bit."

Pei Wende did not say that he had "memorized" most of the medical books in the attic. He just said so modestly.

"In that case, let me test you now!"

"What are the names of the thirty-six death points on the human body?"

He did not directly ask about the specific location of the "Achilles' heel" because Dr. Lu knew that it was something that could only be known through practice, and he was just testing Pei Wende's theory and seriousness.

"Baihui point, Shenting point, temple..."

Unexpectedly, Dr. Lu would suddenly test him. Pei Wende couldn't help but blinked his eyelids, and then he began to recall the knowledge in his mind.

Thanks to his almost photographic memory after practicing, Pei Wende could still recall some simple contents in the book even if he just read it quickly.

As for further study, perhaps we can only continue with the help of the ability of "Searching in the Sea of ​​Knowledge".

"I have a great memory!"

"What are the strange points outside the meridian? How many are there in total?"

Seemingly satisfied with Pei Wende's answer, Doctor Lu spoke again and continued to ask, as if he was testing his own disciple.

"Extra-meridian odd points refer to those points that are not within the fourteen main meridians and change depending on the location of labor pain."

"According to the records in "The Back of the Cubicle" and "Qianjin Yaofang", they are specific..."

It was obvious that Dr. Lu was thinking. Not only did Pei Wende become excited, but even the green snake hidden under his sleeves showed a surprised look.

Doctor Lu obviously regarded Pei Wende as his real apprentice and really planned to teach him the medical skills he had learned.

"Self-taught" and "taught" are two completely different concepts!

Especially in a discipline like "medical skills" where even the slightest deviation can lead to a huge mistake, even practitioners will find it difficult to achieve much without someone's guidance.

"Very good, it seems you are indeed much more talented than I thought."

Nodding with satisfaction again, Doctor Lu did not ask any more questions this time, but took out two strings of copper coins from under the counter and handed them directly to Pei Wende.

"This is two hundred copper coins, which is the reward for the medicine you collected earlier."

At this point, Dr. Lu's tone suddenly paused, and he continued with a very serious expression.

"But next time you come, I don't want to see those weeds with no medicinal properties among the herbs you pick. Can you do that?"

Without asking Dr. Lu why he suddenly changed his mind, Pei Wende just answered loudly with a face full of joy.

"no problem!"

"Old man, what happened at home?"

At the same time, Aliao, who had just arrived home, suddenly opened the door of Li's house and shouted loudly into the house as he walked.

"Or are you lying to me again?"

However, there was only deathly silence in response to Aliao, as if there was no one at home at all.

"Huh?"

Not to mention that Aliao found this situation strange, even the servant who secretly ran out to report the news also looked puzzled.

"Master? Madam? Ah Fu? Qiuyue? Are you there? The young master is back!"

He called several people's names in succession, but the servant's response was still silence with no one answering.

"problem occurs!"

The vigilance in his eyes flashed, but Aliao just gently pulled the servant and did not make any loud noise.

Although my family is not a wealthy family, it is still a small wealthy family with more than a dozen servants. It is absolutely impossible for this kind of situation to happen when the young master comes home and no one responds.

What's more, Aliao didn't notice a suspicious point that he hadn't noticed when he just entered the door. He actually opened the door without any servants to answer him.

Aliao thought that his maid felt sorry for him and secretly left him a door.

But judging from the current situation, things don't seem to be as simple as they imagined.

"Master?"

Looking at the dark corridor in the mansion with the same surprise, the servant felt that this familiar road was so creepy for the first time.

"You said before that some vicious people came to our house. Do you know what they do?"

Hearing Aliao's sudden question, the servant was stunned for a moment, and then showed a look of fear.

"Young master, you mean..."

Before the servant could finish his words, there was suddenly a sound of "tapping" footsteps coming from the front of the dark corridor.

Step, step, step...

As if they were deliberately frightening Aliao and the two, the strange footsteps followed in a rhythm consistent with the beating of the heart. After a while, they clearly appeared in their ears.

Boo! Boo! Boo!

Unconsciously covering his chest, Aliao could feel that as the footsteps approached, his heartbeat became faster and faster, as if he was about to explode in the next moment.

Bang!

Then the next second, a muffled explosion sounded first from Aliao's side, and then scarlet blood stained most of his body.

"ah!"

Looking back, what caught Aliao's eyes was the servant who could no longer bear the strange footsteps and his whole body exploded into a ball of blood mist.

"whee……"

Just when Aliao was terrified, a strange laughter once again broke the tranquility of Li Mansion.

"who!"

Without any time to think, Aliao instinctively turned around again and stared into the depths of the corridor.

At this moment, Aliao felt a refreshing coldness surge into his heart, and it turned into a deep chill in an instant.

Cluck cluck...

Aliao couldn't help but tremble, and Aliao's teeth began to chatter uncontrollably.

"whee……"

Seeing this, the ghost deep in the corridor laughed again.

The laughter was full of evil and weird feeling, just like a doll without any emotions and only laughing.

【run! 】

This idea flashed through his mind. Before Aliao could turn his idea into reality, a wave of goosebumps came from half of his body that was stained red with blood.

"whee……"

In the blink of an eye, Aliao, whose heartbeat suddenly increased, exploded into an unrecognizable mass of blood mist just like his servant before he had time to react.

"Who are you……"

At the last moment before Aliao collapsed, what he saw was a funny, weird, and terrifying grimace.
