Chapter 921: Poisonous Insects
Wang Yao was slowly walking down the mountain road .
Wu Tongxing got out of the car and waited outside .
“Mr . Wu, you came early,” Wang Yao said .
“I arrived not long ago,” Wu Tongxing said with a smile .
“Didn’t you sleep well last night?”
“I’m still worried about the old man’s health,” Wu Tongxing replied . He just wanted to take the medicine from Wang Yao, fly back, and give it to the old man now . It would be better if he could persuade Wang Yao to go to Jing to take a look at the old man . He had asked Wang Yao about it the day before . The doctor did not have any plans to go to Jing for the time being, so he could only give up .
“The medicine has been brewed . ” Wang Yao handed him the medicine that he had brewed the previous night .
“Thank you . ”
Wang Yao told him how to take the medicine .
There were two kinds of medicine . One was the Primordial Spirit Soup, which could consolidate the corporeity and strengthen the old man’s health . The old man’s state was that of an oil lamp that had run out of oil . His light had been diminished . Now, he could only add some more oil to the lamp so as not to let the lamp go out immediately . The second kind of medicine could relieve pain, clear heat, and treat carbuncle, gangrene, and sores . The two medicines were to be used in combination to complement each other .
“Thank you . ” Wu Tongxing expressed his gratitude once again .
“Would you like to go in and sit a bit?” Wang Yao asked .
“No thank you,” Wu Tongxing said . “I have to hurry back . The old man is waiting for the medicine . ”
“I shall come back some other day to thank you . ”
“That’s not necessary,” Wang Yao said with a smile . “Have a safe journey . ”
Wu Tongxing got in his car and hurriedly left the village .
On Dongshan Mountain, Wang Yao’s three disciples were practicing .
“I feel that the aura on the mountain is getting better,” Jia Zizai remarked .
Breathing the air there made him feel better than when he was smoking .
“Yes, it should be because of the Nanshan Hill where Sir lives,” Zhong Liuchuan suggested .
Their location was very close to Nanshan Hill . At this time, there was still fog around Nanshan when one looked from a close distance away . According to how mountains worked, a low hill without a peak should not have such fog .
“Why do I feel that Nanshan Hill seems to be a little taller?” Jia Zizai asked .
“Sir said that the mountain has always been growing taller and never stopped,” Zhong Liuchuan replied .
It was understandable that people and trees would grow taller . However, in their impression, when a mountain grew taller, unless there was a strong crustal movement, such as an earthquake and volcano eruption, it should be kept at a fixed height and not change . Furthermore, there was no frequent crustal movement around the Nanshan Hill area .
“Shall we end it here today?”
“Sure . ”
The three people went down the hill together .
When they passed by the clinic, they heard Wang Yao’s voice coming out from inside it .
“Liuchuan, Zizai, come in for a moment . ”
“We didn’t talk, did we?” Jia Zizai asked .
“No, Sir probably heard our footsteps,” Zhong Liuchuan said .
“Can he even hear that?” Jia Zizai asked in surprise .
“Let’s go,” Zhong Liuchuan said . “Sir is looking for us . ”
The two of them pushed open the door and entered the clinic .
“Sir . ”
“Did you just come down from the mountain?” Wang Yao put down the medical book in his hand .
“Yes, we just got down . ”
“I have something to ask of you guys,” Wang Yao said .
“Please tell us . ”
“I want to see how effective the medicine you have been taking during this time is,” Wang Yao said .
In recent weeks, he had been giving medicine to his three students . They were anti-miasma and anti-poison antidotes . He had already experimented with them once some time back . Their bodies now had a good resistance to those toxins . It could be said that they were basically immune to all kinds of poisons . He wanted to try another function . He wanted to see if poisonous insects would avoid them upon encountering them .
“I’ll do it,” Jia Zizai said without hesitation .
“Alright . ”
Wang Yao took out a glass bottle that contained a few small insects . They were the poisonous insects caught at the Li Family Creek hot springs . Wang Yao opened the bottle lid .
“Try putting your fingers in there,” Wang Yao said .
Jia Zizai put his finger in . Something that surprised him happened . The insects were a little flustered . They seemed to notice something and hid in the farthest corner from his finger . Jia Zizai saw the situation and moved his finger closer to them . As a result, the insects moved in the other direction . They repeated the test several times to make sure that they were repelled by his fingers . They were not taking the initiative to attack like they did before .
“It seems to have worked,” Wang Yao said .
“Try again . ”
Wang Yao changed to another bottle . There were also some small black insects in it . These were the ones he had caught from Xishan Hill . These insects were very aggressive . They would take the initiative to attack any living thing they encountered . In the end, the effect of this experiment was the same . They retreated on their own accord .
“Very good,” Wang Yao said with a smile .
He had achieved what he wanted . The potion given to the three of them had already worked to change their bodies in some way .
“Do we need to continue taking the medicine?” Jia Zizai asked . He didn’t mind taking the medicine, but it didn’t taste good . At least, it was much worse than drinking alcohol . It was best if they did not need to take it anymore .
“You don’t need to for the new few days,” Wang Yao said . “Let’s wait a while to see if the effect of these two drugs decreases . ”
“OK . ”
After the two of them left, Wang Yao recorded the effect of the drug experiment . This was a new attempt, it proved that the medicine worked . So far, no side effects had occurred . They did not even have diarrhea .
It’s safe to use, he thought .
He brewed another two doses and brought it home at noon .
“Why would I take medicine when I am well?” Zhang Xiuying murmured after hearing her son’s request for her and her husband to take the medicine .
“Mom, this medicine is not ordinary,” Wang Yao replied .
“How extraordinary is it? Will taking it make me more beautiful?”
“Well, that’s not the case, but Mom, if you want, I can try to make it for you,” Wang Yao said .
“Forget it, what’s the effect of this medicine?” Zhang Xiuying asked .
“Well, after taking it, you can be immune to all kinds of poisons, and you won’t be bitten by mosquitoes and insects,” Wang Yao said .
“Really?” Zhang Xiuying was stunned after hearing that . She disregarded the immunity to all kinds of poisons . What poisons could there be here? But the advantage of not being bitten by mosquitoes was real . The most annoying thing in summer was the buzzing of mosquitoes flying at night and stinging her from time to time .
“When have I, your son, lied to you?” Wang Yao asked with a smile .
“OK, I’ll drink it . ”
The medicine was bitter .
“Well, it’s so bitter!”
The antidote soup given to his parents was different from the one he had given to Zhong Liuchuan . Considering his parents’ health, he had specially adjusted the medicine to make it milder and not burden their organs .
“Your father is in the house . ”
“Noted . ”
After entering the house, Wang Fenghua drank it without any hesitation after hearing about it .
In another courtyard of the mountain village…
“What are you doing? Where is the snake from?” Hu Mei looked at her husband in surprise . Jia Zizai held a small snake in his hand .
“I got it from the mountains . I found it a few days ago,” Jia Zizai said with a smile .
“At this time, the snake should be hibernating, right?” Hu Mei asked . ‘Why did you disturb its rest?”
“I just want to try again,” Jia Zizai said .
“Ah, you!” Hu Mei rolled her eyes at him .
The result didn’t disappoint Jia Zizai . He did not know if it was because of winter or any other reason, but the snake seemed reluctant to move . When Jia Zizai placed it on the ground, the snake would take the initiative to slither away and go to other places as soon as he got close to it .
“My wife, shall we keep this snake?” he asked .
“Who keeps a snake as a pet? Hu Mei asked . “Do away with it quickly . Put it back from where it came from, or I shall chop it immediately . ” She did not like snakes, insects, mice, or ants at all .
“OK, I’ll take it back in the afternoon,” Jia Zizai said .
“What do you think the medicine that Sir gave us was? It can really make us invincible to all kinds of poisons and repel all kinds of poisonous insects . ”
“How would I know? It must not be a common herb,” Hu Mei replied .
“Do you think Sir has a kind of medicine with him that can make our cultivation soar after taking it?” Jia Zizai asked .
“You are thinking about nonsense again,” Hu Mei replied . “Didn’t Sir say that there is no shortcut to the path of cultivation . You can only go step by step, except for special opportunities . Don’t have any fantasies . ”
