Golden Dan Roll

Chapter 12 Miasma Forest

When it comes to the patients in Yanting, Changchi Taoist is really worried, worried that the immoral behavior of unscrupulous and quack doctors is becoming more and more common.After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's arrange it like this. Wan'er and I will go back to Baisha Town for tomorrow's carriage."

"Master...the cold poison in the priest's body is still not cleared, I...I think..." Hu Wan hesitated.Knowing that the Shura grass will bear fruit in the near future, it can cure Baili Miyin's cold poison, but relying on the fact that others don't know the truth, he wants to use this as an excuse to stay in Pancaotang.

Daoist Changchi suddenly thought of this incident, he just thought that Hu Wan was keen on studying rare and complicated diseases, and didn't think about it.Besides, Bu Dan's wound still needs to be carefully observed, so he nodded immediately and said, "You can stay here for now."

The four of them chatted until night fell, and only after they held candles did they feel a little sadness about parting.Taoist Changchi took the trouble to remind Taoist Li Tang to protect Huwan, but turned around and reminded Wei Feng not to make trouble for others. They are both disciples but the treatment is very different.Wei Feng didn't mind at all, as long as he could stay in Minshan, Master Guan would obediently agree to whatever he said, with a calm and sensible appearance.On the contrary, Daoist Li Tang was so annoyed that he wished he could immediately send chariots and horses to send the nagging Taoist Changchi away, so as to make his ears clean.

Suddenly hearing Baili Miyin's cold scolding, everyone immediately quieted down and followed the sound, only to see Bu Dan walking out one after the other followed by Baili Miyin who was not looking sideways.Seeing this posture, everyone obviously guessed that Bu Dan had offended the cold-faced Shura, and they all became curious, watching the excitement and sweating for Bu Dan.

Baili Miyin walked to the stone table, pulled Hu Wan up, and made the stone bench she was sitting on free, and immediately ordered Bu Dan: "Sit down and listen."

Bu Dan didn't dare to follow, his legs went limp when he heard the words, and he knelt down in front of Hu Wan and apologized repeatedly.Hu Wan is the easiest to soften his heart, but he is good at picking people.After figuring out the reason, Hu Wan couldn't help but glared at Baili Miyin, saying that she made a fuss out of a molehill.He thought that Bu Dan had made some big mistake, but he just eavesdropped, he didn't say anything taboo just now, so it doesn't matter what he heard.Not to mention that he didn't have any malicious intentions, but out of concern for Yi Rong, he just wanted to find out how the Baili Nan matter was going.

Hu Wan hurriedly bowed to help Bu Dan up, because he stretched the wound on his back, he gasped inaudibly, and tried not to dare to fuck in front of Baili Miyin.

"Hahaha... Bu Dan, if you still go to Baisha Town to sell furs in the future, you can come to Yanting to settle down." Wei Feng said heartily.Seeing Bu Dan's ferocious but helpless expression on his face, he felt pitiful.

The panic in Bu Dan's eyes was swept away, he didn't respond to Wei Feng's words, he turned to Taoist Li Tang and said hesitantly: "Taoist... When I was injured, I heard the Suzerain mention... Miasma, I don’t know if the Taoist chief has searched the dense forest to the east of Minnow Mountain in the past few days, to ensure that the suzerain is not allowed to hide in the forest.”

"Oh...why didn't you say it earlier!" Daozhang Li patted his thigh, as if waking up from a dream.He preconceived that no one would dare to set foot in the miasma forest, and indeed he had never searched the east side of Minnow Mountain, but he didn't think that Baili Nan was a desperado, and it was not impossible to escape to the dense forest when he was desperate. "If this is the case, it is difficult to say that the two are still alive."

The dense forest is full of towering old trees that block out the sky and the sun. The light is minimal, and the damp and turbidity is easy to breed dirty and poisonous substances, and it is full of miasma. People who enter it are close to death.Like Hu Wan, who is familiar with the terrain and has rich experience in collecting herbs, he would also avoid them. If he summoned people to search, he would be buried with him in vain and find nothing.However, even if Bai Linan died in the forest, Taoist Li Tang had to drag his body out and put it back in the tomb to restore the eighth thunder pool array.

"This...what to do!" Wei Feng said dejectedly.

"The miasma is poisonous gas, so it's not impossible to enter the miasma forest." Hu Wan paused, glanced at the crowd, and set her eyes on Baili Miyin's face that was not startling the wind, and said happily: "Yes A single medicinal material is called Chizhu, which can dry dampness, relieve depression, cut off malaria, ward off filth, and remove miasma. It is taken orally before entering the mountain, and then some realgar is worn on the body, which can prevent snakes, insects and beasts. No matter how dense the miasma is in the dense forest, it should not be a big problem if it lasts for two hours."

"Tsk tsk tsk... I was just wondering, I'm also a medical student, why is this girl so smart? It's a wise move to keep her." Li Tangdao was overjoyed and looked around. Looking at Taoist Changchi and Wei Feng, he finally pointed at Wei Feng and said slyly: "Old Taoist Chang, take this useless quack away quickly."

"Master Li Tang, if everything has been arranged, don't go back and forth. It's better to make preparations for the miasma forest." Wei Feng patted the hand of Master Li Tang, fearing that Taoist Changchi would change his mind under his nagging Attention is drawn to the business.

"Tomorrow, I will go back to Yueyuedang and bring three or five people into the mountain. You don't need to worry about it." Baili Miyin took Huwan's hand and said, "Chiju and Realgar still need Wan'er's help. Prepare."

"No way, you are not fully recovered from your injuries, and you still need to drink tonic decoction, and you can't take Chishu again. As far as you are familiar with the mountains, you rarely go to the dense forest in the east." Hu Wan said seriously: "I am familiar with the terrain of the dense forest. , and he has gone to the mountains to collect medicine with his seniors all year round, so he has rich experience in mountain hiking. And as a doctor, he knows how to save himself in time when something happens, so he is a good candidate for going to the mountains."

Master Li Tang listened to Hu Wan's analysis and couldn't stop nodding.Wei Feng also echoed again and again, hearing Hu Wan mentioning himself, it was considered a compliment.For Wei Feng, who was often despised by Taoist Li Tang, he couldn't help feeling a little complacent.

"Find a few more people who are familiar with the terrain of the miasma forest. The three of you will search separately as a battalion. I will bring Hu girl..."

"I'm with others." Wei Feng interrupted Li Tang and expressed his opinion hastily.He didn't want to be left behind, but he also didn't want to follow Taoist Li Tang to search the mountain, otherwise he would be disgusted all the way.Only when they are with others will they be regarded as honored guests. After all, the Bunun people mistakenly believe that the three masters and apprentices are the nobles who put down the plague and have made great contributions.

"Okay." Baili Miyin said simply.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked. They thought it would take a lot of words to get her answer, but unexpectedly, she was easily persuaded.In astonishment, Hu Wan thought that she had heard it wrong, so it was useless to secretly store a set of words between her teeth and wait for her to reject without thinking.Hearing such a straightforward answer from her at this time, I was extremely disappointed.

The next day, the candidates selected by Baili Miyin to enter the mountain had gathered in front of the Pancao Hall. At that time, Hu Wan and Wei Feng were busy cooking red surgery and grinding realgar for everyone in the backyard. Procedure.From time to time, he raised his eyes from the medicine mortar, only to see Baili Miyin who was wandering in the backyard with nothing to do, smelling the decoction for a while, touching realgar for a while, as if he suddenly became interested in medicinal materials.Hu Wan still remembered the mood of last night, and at this moment, he held his breath and refused to talk to her, so he didn't ask her anything, and continued to make medicine.

"Does this medicine taste the same as the decoction I usually take?" Baili Miyin asked Wei Feng, pointing to the medicine stove.

"It's not the same, it's very different." Wei Feng responded casually.

"Pour some and give me a taste."

As soon as the words fell, Hu Wan dropped a stone hammer to the side of the medicine mortar, making a muffled sound.

"Huh? Priest...this is medicine, not soup, you can't taste it." Seeing that Baili Miyin looked serious, not like joking, and when she had ever joked with him, Wei Feng almost dropped his jaw in shock .Just as Hu Wan said, she was still taking other medicines, so how could he satisfy her weird request in order to avoid making the medicines incompatible.

Baili Miyin then gave up, and walked to Huwan's side instead, looked at it for a long time, and said casually: "I heard that realgar powder can also repel mosquitoes and ants, give me some, and make a medicine bag and hang it on the tent tomorrow."

"The smell of realgar is strong, so it is not suitable for hanging on the tent. I will make you a medicine bag to prevent mosquitoes and ants in the future."

"Alright."

After distributing the decoction and realgar powder, Taoist Li Tang gave a few more words, and in front of the Pancao Hall, a group of people dried up the decoction in their bowls like soldiers on an expedition, ready to go.Baili Miyin never showed up, and before leaving, Hu Wan looked back at the closed door, thinking that she didn't even have a word of instructions, and couldn't hide her disappointment.

After entering the mountain, Taoist Li Tang gave an order, and the group dispersed in twos and threes, while Hu Wan and another follower followed Taoist Li Tang straight into the depths of the dense forest.

At the beginning, it was just a lingering light mist, which did not obstruct the vision, but the miasma became heavier as one walked in, accompanied by a trace of cold air, which made Hu Wan cough anxiously.

"Why is this place so cold!" the follower rubbed his palms and complained.

"Hu girl, can you stand it? Do you want to take a rest?" Taoist Li Tang stopped and asked with concern.

"No, the effect of the red technique only lasts for two hours, we don't want to delay any longer. The miasma here is very thick, and the vision will become more and more blurred. Everyone must follow closely and don't get separated."

Li Tang nodded, looked behind Hu Wan, and found nothing unusual, so he continued to move forward.After taking two steps, Hu Wan saw his back was only a vague outline hidden in the miasma, and immediately followed him, fearing that if he was too slow, he would lose sight of him.

The entourage followed closely behind Hu Wan, joking all the way to ease the uneasiness in his heart, and Taoist Li Tang turned his head to respond from time to time.Hu Wan suppressed her cough, felt a little weak, and had nothing to say, but hearing the voices of the two people in front of her and behind her, she felt that the dull atmosphere was a little more relaxed.

"Daozhang, why do you always look back?" the follower asked.

"I always feel that someone is following us. Maybe I've been in the miasma for a long time, and I'm starting to be suspicious." Li Tang said and turned his head to look at the back. With such a thick miasma, I'm afraid he can't even see the faces of his followers clearly. No matter how you look at it, it is futile.

"What time is it, don't scare me, I'm cowardly." The attendant stepped to Hu Wan's side and walked side by side with her.

Hu Wan turned her head and saw the attendant's nervous look, she couldn't help laughing, and was about to let him go forward, but she caught a glimpse of a palm-sized soft worm covering his shoulder, flat, slippery surface, black all over, very disgusting.The smile gradually froze, and he took a step back unconsciously, and said in a low voice, "There is... something on your shoulder."

Hearing this, the attendant's expression darkened, he turned his head tremblingly and glanced out of the corner of his eye, but when he saw something wriggling on his shoulder, he immediately screamed, but he didn't dare to touch it with his hands, and stumbled away like crazy.Daoist Li Tang and Hu Wan didn't have time to react, and the entourage was gone, and his screams became more and more horrific, which didn't sound like they were frightened at all.Seeing him wandering away, Hu Wan was very anxious, and wanted to follow the sound to find him, but was stopped by Taoist Li Tang. "Don't act rashly. We all wear realgar on our bodies. That thing may not hurt him. I'm afraid we've encountered other dangers."

"No matter what danger lies ahead, he must be saved."

"I didn't say I wouldn't save him." Daoist Li Tang took out the rope from his arms, tied one end to Hu Wan's wrist, and the other end to his own wrist. "We can't get separated again. I promised your master will protect you, and you can't tolerate any mistakes. Be careful when you pass by, and you must not act recklessly."

Hu Wan nodded, feeling a lot of peace of mind as she touched the straw rope on her wrist that was as thick as a finger.Carefully following Taoist Li Tang, he fumbled in the direction of the screaming sound. He heard that he was nearby. After walking for a while, he estimated that he should find his followers, but the sound still echoed in front of him.

"What's going on?" Taoist Li Tang was puzzled and said: "Listen to the sound, the direction is correct, even if it deviates from the direction, the sound should be getting farther and farther away."

"Could it be that we have been circling around where he is?" Hu Wan hypothesized.

"Ghost hitting the wall? Hey, look, I'm still a Maoshan Taoist priest. It doesn't help you to be smart. It's easy to deal with it if it's a ghost hitting the wall. I, Li Tang, am not a quack warlock, and I am one of the best in terms of Taoism." Li Tangdao said long, He opened his mouth and bit his fingertips, drew a talisman on the palm of his hand with blood, and then stepped on the Yubu Nine Stars Technique, hitting the void with his palm.

Hu Wan's wrists were tied with straw ropes, and he was dragged by Taoist Li Tang to walk staggeringly. When he raised his eyes, he saw gray-white miasma in the air, and the whirling air flow was visible to the naked eye.Hu Wan couldn't wait to marvel, the air flow returned to calm without a trace for a moment.

Following the sound again, the voice of the entourage gradually died down, even so, it was obvious that his position was getting closer.Just when she was happy to break the ghost wall, a stench rushed into her nostrils, causing Hu Wan to cough and retch continuously, choking tears.

"The stench is incomparable, it makes me dizzy and dizzy." Daoist Li covered his mouth and nose, and his voice came out from between his fingers.

Hu Wan also rolled up her cuffs to cover her mouth and nose. When she looked closely, she could vaguely see the silhouette of her attendant sitting on the hill panting.

"Hey, what's the matter with you, are you injured?" Tang Taoist pinched his nose and shouted, his thick nasal voice was very funny.

"Don't come here." A familiar voice came to my ears, stopping Hu Wan and Li Tang from approaching the followers.

Hu Wan recognized Baili Miyin's voice at once, but he could only hear the voice but could not see the person. The miasma that could not be dispelled was like layers of curtains, even if it was a few steps away, it was hard to see. "Ayin...is that you?"

Waiting for a while without any reply from the other party, Hu Wan was suspecting that she was hallucinating, but the soft coldness quietly wrapped her up and held her hand.As long as he feels this familiar touch, Hu Wan knows it is Baili Miyin without a doubt.Looking back, the man was holding a bow and carrying a quiver, and there was a look of worry in his quiet eyes.

"I thought someone was following me all the way, but you?" Tang Taoist Li asked.

"En." Baili Miyin said calmly: "He is dead, let's step back and talk."

During the conversation, he did not hear the panting sound of the attendant again, and he did not answer when he was asked, so he did not think that something unexpected happened to him.Hu Wan couldn't help being discouraged, the life that was still alive just now was gone in a flash before her eyes, thinking of him being lively and funny all the way to relieve everyone's tension, but she didn't know his name yet.I couldn't help but blame myself, even if I found him sooner, the result might be different.

No wonder Baili Miyin was so abnormal this morning, he wanted to taste Chishu decoction and realgar powder, but since last night he had made up his mind to secretly protect Hu Wan, so he agreed to let Hu Wan into the dense forest without hesitation, without a word of warning.

"You... just came in like this?" Hu Wan frowned.

"The medicine dregs in the jar can still filter out half a bowl of decoction. I made some realgar powder myself. It's all ready. Don't worry about it."

"Did you drink the medicine you usually take this morning?" Hu Wan thought that since she had already planned this matter, she must pour the medicine behind her back. "Sneaky fell?"

"No, how can you waste the medicine you have been suffering so hard, and let Budan drink it." Baili Miyin thought that he and Budan were both traumatized, and the medicine should have the same properties.

Hu Wan's conclusion.

"Xiao Baili, what happened to that kid?" Li Tang said, "You came out from inside, you must have saved him before us."

"Well, I heard his shrill cry, it didn't seem to be frightened, but it seemed to be howling in pain, so I followed him.

When Baili Miyin found him, he was sitting on the hillock just as he had seen just now, maybe he was frightened out of his wits, so he kept screaming and turning a blind eye to her.Resisting the pungent rancid smell, he approached him, but saw that his eyes were slack, his hands were bulging with veins, and he was tightly clutching the black soft worm. Every time he screamed, he squeezed it, and the worm's intestines had already burst into blood.It was obvious that he was out of his mind, no matter how Baili Miyin manipulated him, it was useless.Just as he was thinking about pulling him away from the stinking hill, he accidentally found blood oozing from the back of his waist, but he couldn't see the wound when he touched it.Cut open his clothes to check, and saw that the pores on the back of his waist were stretched out somehow, and blood was leaking out densely like a sieve.Seeing this, she knew it was hopeless, and based on the amount of bleeding in front of her, she speculated that he would lose too much blood and die in a short while.Then Daoist Li Tang and Hu Wan rushed over, and Baili Miyin heard Daoist Li Tang's voice, and immediately walked down the hill. Just now he noticed that the soil of the hill was loose and wet, so he made a noise to stop the two from approaching.Squat down and take a closer look at the barren land under your feet. It looks like a mixture of rotting meat, rotting leaves, and soil. The stench comes from this.

"I'm going crazy too. I don't even know how people die. I can only resign myself to fate for the rest of my life. I hope the patriarch will bless you." Daoist Li Tang said dejectedly: "I hope the others are doing well and there will be no more accidents." Good." Hu Wan was in a serious mood.

Everyone has their own concerns.The three of them had seen the danger of the miasma forest, and they didn't dare to delay any longer. Baili Miyin opened the way, and Li Tang led the way in the back of the hall, and continued to trek.

"Wan'er, I heard you have a constant cough, but what's wrong with you?" Baili Miyin asked with concern.

"Back then, I suffered from the stubborn illness that the arrow fell, and I would get sick every time I got wet. I have gotten used to it for so many years, and there is no serious problem. By the way, who shot the arrow at me back then?"

"It doesn't matter who shot the arrow, it's just an unknown pawn who is similar in stature to Xiao Baili. The important thing is that Xiao Baili made her die an ominous death. The arrow avoided her vital point and shot her like a hedgehog. Daoist Li Tang recalled: "Xiao Baili held too much resentment back then, and those who saw it were terrified. Speaking of this, I can't understand how you are willing to spare Bu Dan and the messenger Yi Yan. This is not like your style."
