Chapter 66: A clever woman has no rice
Hearing the Taoist's words, he was startled. He had never seen a zombie before. He had only heard legends about zombies. He had never heard them mention it when he was with Chen Liqiu and others before, and he had never thought that such a thing really existed.
The two Taoists were about the same age, in their early twenties. The one who was bitten was taller and the one who spoke was shorter.
The short Taoist priest rummaged around and found a small cloth bag from the bag. He opened it eagerly and took a quick look. He returned to the tall Taoist priest with the cloth bag and rolled up his left sleeve, revealing the tattoo on his left arm.
Wound.
From a closer distance, we could see clearly that the wound on the arm of the tall Taoist priest was about two inches square. It was an obvious bite wound. The injury was very serious. A large piece of flesh was missing from the skin, and the wound was bloody and fleshy.
The short Taoist priest grabbed a handful of glutinous rice from the cloth bag, pressed it on the tall man's wound in a panic, and then hurriedly cut strips of cloth to wrap and bandage.
After the skin and flesh were bitten off, not to mention pressing hard glutinous rice upwards, even the slightest touch of soft cloth would cause severe pain, but the tall Taoist felt nothing at all. He just closed his eyes tightly and gasped for breath.
After bandaging the wound on the tall man's arm, the short Taoist grabbed another handful of glutinous rice and stuffed it into the tall man's mouth.
After doing this, the short Taoist was at his wits' end. Although he felt that his treatment was probably of no use, he didn't know what else to do. He could only squat next to the tall man and ask over and over again, 'Brother, how are you?'
The tall Taoist priest was still gasping for breath, but after stuffing a large amount of glutinous rice into his mouth, he couldn't breathe smoothly and began to hold his breath and convulse.
Seeing that the tall man was in great pain, he couldn't bear it, "Taoist Priest, don't you know how to treat me?"
The short Taoist priest was sick and rushed to the doctor. When he heard the words, he seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and turned his head eagerly, "Can you do it?"
"I'm not sure." He shook his head repeatedly.
"Don't worry, take action quickly. If it's too late, senior brother may be poisoned and transformed into a corpse." The short Taoist priest urged urgently.
"Huh? Corpse transformation?" He stared in shock, Qian Jin Yifang was all-encompassing, and it did contain methods for treating corpse poison, but Qian Jin Yifang recorded medical skills rather than magic, and there was no detailed record of zombies.
"Do you know how to do it?" The short Taoist priest was sweating profusely.
"I said I'm not sure. If you agree, I will try. But if I can't save him, you can't blame me." He said.
"Okay, okay, hurry up and do it." The short Taoist priest nodded in agreement.
After receiving the other party's consent, he quickly grabbed Taoist Gao's legs and said, "Help me carry him out into the rain."
"What are you going to do?" The short Taoist priest didn't know why.
"Corpse poison is a yin-type fire poison. People who have been poisoned by corpse poison cannot be roasted."
If it's hot, you have to stay in a cool place." He explained eagerly.
Hearing the words, the short Taoist suddenly understood and hurriedly carried the tall Taoist out with him.
It was raining outside at this time, and regardless of the wet mud, I shouted loudly to the short Taoist priest and asked him to help take off all the clothes on the tall Taoist priest.
The short Taoist priest knew that the tall Taoist priest was in danger and couldn't afford to delay. Without asking the reason, he immediately took off the Taoist robe from the tall Taoist priest. At the same time, he pulled out a little of the glutinous rice from the tall Taoist priest's mouth so that he could breathe normally.
After doing this, he took out the dagger he carried with him.
Seeing that the dagger was taken out, the short Taoist priest was very nervous. Seeing this, he hurriedly explained loudly, "He ran far away after being poisoned. At this time, the poison has already attacked his heart. He must be bled to remove the poison and buy time for treatment."
After saying this, he immediately cut the Taoist priest Gao's back, stabbing him once on each of his arms and thighs where the blood flowed. When the black blood gushes out, he immediately turned the Taoist priest over and let him lie flat on his back.
land.
"Yin corpse poison comes from the ground. Let the wound touch the ground and use the earth's energy to let the poisonous blood flow out as quickly as possible." While speaking, he untied the piece of cloth that the short Taoist priest had previously wrapped around the wound. The piece of cloth had been penetrated by the poisonous blood at this time, and the poisonous blood inside
The glutinous rice has also become as black as ink.
Throw away the piece of cloth and use the rain to wash away the black glutinous rice adhering to the wound. "Glutinous rice can indeed remove the poison, but it is only effective when the corpse poison first enters the body. It is useless at this time. There are disadvantages in wrapping the wound."
No profit."
"You don't need to tell me, hurry up and treat him as soon as possible," the short Taoist priest said.
"I have to tell you, don't blame me if I can't save you." After saying that, he turned around and rushed into the house. He used a dagger to chop at the gray things in the gaps between the bricks and stones. He dug out some and wrapped them in cloth, and ran out to put them away.
When it reaches Taoist Gao's heart, "the white ash will heat up when exposed to water, and it can keep his heart alive."
"Look, look for it quickly. Look for poisonous things. They can be poisonous snakes, scorpions, centipedes, any poisonous insect." He urged.
Hearing the words, the short Taoist priest turned around and ran away, and shouted from behind, "Gypsum, we still need plaster."
"What plaster?" the short Taoist priest was helpless and anxious.
"Forget it, you can't find gypsum here. You can also look for Ophiopogon japonicus or Ophiopogon japonicus." He said, "We also need detoxification drugs for the heart meridian. We must find one of the five types of mung beans, prunella vulgaris, Sijiqing, bear bile, and bezoar."
kind."
"I don't know herbal medicine." The short Taoist priest cried sadly.
"Forget it, I'll figure it out, you go find the poison,
It's best to be a venomous snake." He said.
The short Taoist priest hurriedly agreed, turned around and ran away.
After the short Taoist priest left, he closed his eyes and quickly searched for suitable substitutes in his mind. If all the medicines were available, he would be sure to cure the tall Taoist priest, but he didn't have much to ask for right now, and he couldn't find any suitable medicines.
, we can only look for less powerful alternatives.
Although he is familiar with medical books, he has never tried to cure diseases and save lives. He is an out-and-out armchair talker, and the world looks down upon him. However, he is already familiar with the pharmacology of the five elements and the properties of various drugs, and he is familiar with the combinations and proportions.
After a brief and urgent thought, he turned around and ran into the house. He took out a handful of plant ashes from the fire pit. Plant ashes can dispel cold, reduce swelling, eliminate diseases and break up accumulation. Corpse poison is a yin-type fire poison. Plant ashes can be used together, but the medicinal effect is relatively weak.
Difference.
There are many impurities in plant ash and cannot be swallowed directly. I saw a broken water jar in the yard, and there was water in one of the pottery pieces. I ran over quickly, mixed the plant ash in, and then came back with the tile and put the contents inside.
The gray water poured into Taoist Gao's mouth. .??.??
After feeding the plant ashes, he ran out of the yard again. When he came in, he found a dog egg tree growing next to the door. The medicinal name of this medicine is Humulus humus. It is cold in nature and can clear away heat and detoxify, moisten the lungs and relieve coughs.
I dug up a handful in the dark and couldn't find the medicine mortar to mash it, so I could only frown and stuff it into my mouth. After chewing it, I filtered out the medicine with my teeth and spit it into Taoist Gao's mouth. He didn't talk to Taoist Gao mouth to mouth, so Taoist Gao said
The corpse poison had invaded his lungs and his breath was filled with stench.
If it was better during the day, he could look for available medicinal herbs nearby, but now it was dark and raining, so he couldn't see anything. At this time, he deeply understood what it means to be a wise woman who cannot make a meal without rice.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for the short Taoist priest to come back, holding a snake in his hand. The snake was still alive, and it kept twisting and twisting after being pinched seven inches.
"What kind of snake?" I couldn't see clearly, so I could only ask.
"Bat snake," the short Taoist priest replied loudly, "this is extremely poisonous. If you are bitten by it, you will die."
He didn't answer immediately. The short Taoist priest was right. The bat snake is a highly poisonous poison, which is enough to defeat corpse poison. However, fighting poison with poison cannot neutralize both poisons at the same time. There will definitely be one remaining. Therefore, after fighting poison with poison, there will still be poison.
He needs to detoxify, but at the moment he can't find a suitable drug to detoxify the bat snake, but instead of dying from the corpse poison, he ends up dying from the snake venom.
After pondering eagerly, he said to the short Taoist priest, "Try to break off one of its fangs and bite its neck."
"How can we break up?" The short Taoist priest was worried.
"It's too dangerous." He also felt troubled. "As for the zombie that bit him, corpse teeth are the best antidote."
"If we were it
My opponent will not be bitten." The short Taoist priest started crying.
"Forget it, let's use a snake," he said, "but the bat snake is too venomous. Too much venom will kill people. Try to drain some of its venom."
"I can do this." The short Taoist priest picked up a wooden stick nearby and brought it to the bat snake to let it bite.
"Okay, what should we do next?" the short Taoist priest asked.
"Bite him on the neck, the poison of his corpse has invaded his heart, and the poison must be detoxified as soon as possible." He said.
The short Taoist priest hesitated, then finally made up his mind, grabbed the snake's head and pressed it against the tall Taoist priest's neck.
"Okay." The short Taoist priest was relieved and threw the poisonous snake out of the wall with his backhand.
"Don't throw it away, you have to use the snake gallbladder too," he said eagerly.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" The short Taoist priest hurriedly ran out to look for him.
The short Taoist priest ran out to catch the snake, then ran back into the house and started cleaning up the place.
Not long after, the short Taoist priest came back, killed the venomous snake, took out the snake's gall and fed it to the tall Taoist priest. Then the two of them worked together to carry the tall Taoist priest into the house, where he was still lying on the ground, with black blood still dripping from the wound.
At this time, Taoist Gao had stopped twitching, his face was pale, and he was breathless.
"How's it going?" The short Taoist priest looked over.
"It's hard to say." He shook his head.
"If the bleeding doesn't stop, senior brother will die." The short Taoist priest was nervous.
"We can't stop the bleeding," he shook his head and said, "The bad guys have been mixed with the good guys, and we can't pick them out. We can only kill the good guys and the bad guys together. Only when all the bad guys are dead can we find a way to revive the good guys."
The short Taoist priest knew what this metaphor meant. Seeing that he was covered in mud, he thought of thanking him.
"You're welcome, Taoist Master," he waved his hand and shook his head, "This is my first time doing such a thing, so I'm not sure at all."
"I know you have tried your best. No matter whether senior brother can turn the corner or not, I don't blame you." said the short Taoist priest.
Hearing what the short Taoist priest said, I felt relieved, "Taoist priest, where are you from?"
"Longhu Mountain," the short Taoist priest replied, "my Taoist name is Sanyunzi, and he is my senior brother Sanmuzi."
"You are from Longhu Mountain." Aiwujiwu said.
"Yes," Sanyunzi nodded, "Both of us are disciples of the third generation of Longhu Mountain."
"Three-character generation?" It's a bit strange.
