Chapter 78
The toxins released by the corpses severely corroded the corpses and their clothes. I picked up their clothes with a wooden stick and looked through them to see if there was anything worth taking away. I turned over a token under a corpse.
There was the logo of the Golden Gu Society on it. I went to the waterside to wash the token and put it into a small bag.
Back at the shop, Yue Nanxiang was cooking porridge for Yue Ba. In the past few days, she had learned to cook simple meals from me, such as porridge and fried eggs, and she had already cooked them in style.
I stood next to her and instructed her on how to add green cabbage leaves to the porridge. In fact, I was secretly checking her body to make sure she was okay before I returned to the "ward".
Yue Ba stood in front of the window and stretched her muscles. I didn't kill the poison in her body, and I didn't ask about it when she woke up.
Gu worms attack regularly, and relief medicines need to be taken on time.
This is a commonly used control method in the secret guard industry.
Now that Yue Nanxiang has lost her memory, it is impossible for her to know where the antidote is.
Maybe Mr. Zhang took it with him, but he didn't tell me where he put it.
Yueba doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all. There are still seven days until her next attack. Maybe she has a spare one?
I suppressed the doubts in my heart and reminded her that when I was treating her injuries, I discovered that there were poisonous insects in her body. I wanted to see how she reacted.
She didn't say anything else, she just nodded and said, "Yes."
Then there is nothing more to say. I will not say more and go to the small vegetable garden to find Yunzhou.
On the way back, I picked some wild fruits, boiled them in sugar water and gave them to him as canned food.
During the day, I would play with Yunzhou, go to the mountains to pick flowers, catch squirrels, and release them after catching them.
Yun Zhou saw that I was interested in catching squirrels, so he also tried his hand at it, but the target was a hare, so we had a roast rabbit meal in the evening.
Yunzhou's Kung Fu can still only be "released" but not "retracted". If he cannot retract and retract freely, and cannot control his strength well, the target will "die".
He seemed a little sad and ate a roasted rabbit leg in a sad mood.
At night, after they all went to sleep, I sat down to practice the exercises.
The first two nights were as usual, but on the third night I noticed someone peeping while I was practicing.
For others, practicing Qigong may be in a state of trance and requires full concentration, so once disturbed, they will become obsessed.
But I was different. At first, my supernatural powers were assisting me, and I practiced the martial arts as fast as if I were practicing evil martial arts.
Now I have received another help. When I practice, I can see six directions, hear all directions, and think about things. I can concentrate on three things, which does not affect my practice at all.
Because the air in my chest protects me and stabilizes my breath, allowing me to free up my energy to think about other things.
This feeling is very strange, as if there is an extra butler in the body. If you are playing games in modern times, it should be equivalent to a power leveling, or a plug-in-like existence.
I didn't tell anyone about my increased power, and I noticed that the prying eyes didn't move either.
I can feel who is moving and who is not moving with my supernatural powers, without having to use my eyes to see.
Yue Nanxiang was sleeping in her room. Yunzhou and I were in the same room. Yueba, who was in the ward, quietly came out and walked to the door of our room, peeking in through the small hole in the window paper.
I remained motionless, like an old monk in meditation.
She looked at it for a while and then backed away from the door of our room.
She did nothing that night, and so on for three consecutive nights, and on the fourth night she finally did something.
She blew smoke into our room, and I pretended to be hit, my head sank, and I pretended to faint.
She did the same thing in Yue Nanxiang's room, and then she went outside the shop and fired a loud arrow into the sky.
More than 20 people immediately appeared around them. They moved very fast, and they were all hidden outside the range that martial arts practitioners could perceive. They were at a distance that I couldn't detect even with my supernatural powers.
These twenty-odd people were all women. They sneaked into the shop with a clear goal and went straight to Yunzhou and I's room.
Yunzhou fell into a deep sleep due to the smoke, and their target was not him.
The first two people who rushed in picked up swords and stabbed me. The window behind them
There were two people standing outside. They raised their swords and wanted to cut off my head.
I had my back to the window, only half a meter away from them. The two long swords behind me were trying to cut off my head, and the two long swords in front of me were trying to stab my heart.
The four of them were the first to approach me and the first to fall.
When they stepped on the "one-meter line" around me, the "qi" threads I released penetrated into their bodies.
It's just that "qi" is colorless and odorless, just like air, and they don't feel anything when they step on it.
Until the "qi" thread entered their bodies, it was too late for them to notice.
The invisible "qi" network on the ground is invisible to their naked eyes.
No one who comes close to this shop can escape.
Perhaps only by practicing inner strength to a superb level can one be able to "catch" this "qi" in the body and prevent it from interfering with one's body.
Of the more than 20 people who came tonight, no one could stop my "qi" thread and seal their actions.
I didn't kill them, I just looked around in the crowd and used my powers to check their physical condition.
They all have tattoos on the back of their necks. The designs are all the same, but the numbers are different.
Moon 1 to 9, South 1 to 9, Xiang 1 to 9, divided into three groups, each group has nine people, a total of twenty-seven people.
"Doctor An -" Manager Zhang's voice came from outside the house. He shouted and ran, his voice rising and falling, and he almost fell down.
I walked outside the shop and saw him running towards me from the mountains in the distance.
"What's wrong, Manager Zhang?"
"Doctor An, keep some people under your command!"
I smiled knowingly and deliberately teased him: "You're too late, I'll kill them all."
Manager Zhang stumbled and fell down.
He got up and ran nearby, and saw a dozen people lying on the ground.
There is another one in the shop. He is sad and anxious. I see that he is very emotional and I am not going to tease him anymore. If he gets so anxious that he suffers a cerebral hemorrhage, I will have to treat him.
"I lied to you, they passed out, not dead."
Manager Zhang had just finished patting his thighs and was about to say something when I choked him back and made him cough.
He repeatedly held up his hands, and after he had regained his composure, he hurriedly said, "Thank you, the miracle doctor, for showing mercy."
"Where did you sing this song from? Assassination drill?"
"It's me. If you want to blame, just blame me. I asked them to assassinate you." Manager Zhang was much older and was about to kneel down as he spoke.
I am most unaccustomed to this etiquette. I always feel like they are asking for red envelopes in disguise.
I supported him. He had fallen very hard just now and his legs were still a little lame. I took him to the room and sat down to talk.
The others stopped lying on the ground. I woke them up. When they saw Mr. Zhang was there, they all stood aside obediently.
Yue Nanxiang and Yunzhou were under the spell and still sleeping. Manager Zhang explained to me that these twenty-seven people were Yue Nanxiang's secret guards.
On the surface, Yue Nan Xiangming is the boss of Qunfang Pavilion, a serious businessman, and he never trains secret guards in secret.
These twenty-seven people are her trump cards. They have been hidden in the dark, scattered in different places, and do not stay in Yuancheng.
Manager Zhang confirmed that Yue Nanxiang's poisoning sequelae could not be recovered, so he used a secret code to recruit them back.
But Yue Nanxiang can no longer dispatch them, nor can she remember them, let alone what her original plan was.
Even if the secret guards knew and told her everything, each of them only knew a little and had no idea what Yue Nanxiang's master plan was.
I don't know what she wants to do, so the plan is put on hold indefinitely, which is equivalent to leaving the secret guard idle.
Manager Zhang thought it would be better to make some changes, because if the secret guards were abandoned, the poison on their bodies would kill them sooner or later.
Yue Nanxiang's training of them all these years has been in vain.
It's better to let them do things for me, at least they can survive.
Only Manager Zhang knew that Yue Nanxiang had a secret guard, and it was Manager Zhang who was responsible for the training and final selection.
He couldn't bear to see the "talents" he selected go to waste
It is reasonable to die.
Even if Yue Nanxiang grows up again, she will not be the same as before.
The things she has experienced and the secrets she knows will not come back with her height.
"Oh, so you find a new boss for them." That's me.
"You can say that." Manager Zhang is still a little embarrassed. He just sent someone to assassinate me. It was not a fake attack, but he really wanted to kill me. If I can't beat them, they will not hesitate to move my head.
I understand that this is a test, a test of strength. If you pass it, you will be recognized by them. If you fail, you will die.
"Actually, there is another option." I know they all have poisonous insects in their bodies. It is not difficult to kill the poisonous insects and purify the toxins.
At least it won't be more complicated than making an antidote. Manager Zhang confessed that he only had a temporary antidote on hand, but he didn't have any medicine that could completely detoxify him. He kept all of them at Yue Nanxiang's.
But he didn't know where Yue Nanxiang hid the medicine. It should be somewhere in Qunfang Pavilion.
However, now Qunfang Pavilion has been burned to ruins, and everything is reduced to rubbish. To recreate it, a recipe is needed, and only Yue Nanxiang knows the recipe.
"What choice?" Manager Zhang asked.
"I don't need an antidote. Am I not a miracle doctor? To detoxify, remove poison, and treat old internal and external injuries, just look for Dr. An. The secret recipe of our ancestors can eliminate all diseases. Hey, please look for Dr. An!"
Manager Zhang was confused when he heard this. He was in a daze for a while before he grasped the key points of my words.
"Can we save their lives?"
"Yes, but they have to spend money to buy their lives. There is no such thing as a free lunch." Even Yunzhou, I have started keeping accounts for him. Seeing that he has hope of recovery, when he recovers, he will have to give him food
Pay one fee.
The scowl on Manager Zhang's face was wiped away, and he asked quickly what the charging standard was?
I told him the number, but he hesitated a little. He took all the money and banknotes with him before leaving the city.
But that was the "change" that Yue Nanxiang kept in her hand. It was for temporary use. The bulk of it was kept in the bank. When they fled, the bank was already empty.
This cash will be the living expenses of their master and servant in the future. In Yue Nanxiang's situation, Manager Zhang does not expect her to achieve greater success in the future, but only hopes that she will live a safe life.
The price I want is 80% of the money he has.
Yue Ba may know how much money Mr. Zhang has in his hand. When she heard the amount I wanted, she immediately stepped forward and knelt down, saying that since it was to cure the poison on her body, she should pay for it herself, but she couldn't afford it.
So I am willing to trade my life for my life.
"What do you mean?" I didn't understand.
She explained that it was me who ordered her life, and her life was mine, and she would serve me from now on.
When other people heard this, they also knelt down and expressed that they were also willing to use this method to pay for consultation and medical expenses.
Manager Zhang is a man who can bend and stretch, and when he sees the situation, he will kneel down with them.
"Okay, okay, come on, get up. I don't mind asking you to serve me, but just do some daily chores to offset the treatment fee. I'll pay you back slowly."
Anyway, I've paid the fee, and if you agree, I'll treat it.
If you can't afford it now, then work to pay off the debt.
Now is the time when we are in need of help. I can ask them to run errands, buy something, send a message, etc., which is great.
Manager Zhang is the happiest person to be able to save these people's lives without having to pay any money. This person, who has always been steady, will be beaming with laughter.
He first assured that the eighteen people who died on the mountain were not arranged by him.
It was Yue Ba and they found someone hiding in the mountains. They were worried that these people would do harm to Yue Nanxiang, so they struck first.
In order to avoid arousing my suspicion, only Yue Ba took action, and the others did not show up.
Yue Ba's injury was not intentional. She was fighting against eighteen people by herself, and even being stabbed twice was considered a good skill.
She wanted to walk to the store, but unfortunately she overestimated herself and fainted halfway.
Being dragged back by Yue Nanxiang was not part of their plan.
Manager Zhang trusts my strength, but Yueba and the others have never seen it with their own eyes, so they don’t trust Yueba after all.
Please give me your protection.
So Manager Zhang asked them to give it a try. He knew that I would definitely not be killed by them.
On the other hand, he never thought about whether they would be killed by me?
He admitted that he had this worry and that he could not hold Yue Ba and the others at risk.
He Yueba and others are like teachers.
They may listen to his words, but they may not.
He couldn't stop them from doing what they insisted on doing.
I was originally thinking that there were twenty-seven more people suddenly, and there was no room for them in the shop.
As a result, they went out very consciously at night and each found a place to stay.
On the roof, on the big trees, in the grass, any place where people can hide, they will not let go.
Only a few people who needed treatment that night were left in the vacant guest rooms.
It is easy to kill the poisonous insects in their bodies, and it is not difficult to remove the remaining toxins.
That is, their new injuries, old injuries, internal injuries, and mixed external injuries are more time-consuming to treat.
Manager Zhang trained them and did not turn them into robots. Their personalities and tempers are still there.
Among those who received treatment on the first night was a girl named Nanjiu. She was 19 years old and a talkative person.
I can't imagine that a chatty person is a secret guard.
After I treated her, when it was my turn to treat others, she was still "accompanying" me.
"The medical skills of the miracle doctor are like magic. Miracle doctor, do you need a medicine boy? Where is the fairy boy? When I was a child, the fairy king in the village said that I was destined to be a fairy. In the future, I would meet a fairy to guide me and I would flourish."
"I can't help you with your career, but I can help you get there as soon as possible." I scratched my neck with my thumb and made a wiping gesture.
"My life was saved by the miracle doctor. I will use my life as the diagnosis fee to pay the miracle doctor. You can take it at any time, of course~" After saying that, she raised her neck and walked forward.
