Chapter 260: The Way of Stealing Life, Incurable

Li Changxiao was wandering around the Wang Family Garden in boredom.

The Wang Mansion covers a large area. It takes half an hour to go around it. Various flowers, plants and trees are planted in the circular forest. Some of them have a great origin. I heard from the servants that they were introduced from Dayan Huazong. The fragrance of these flowers has the effect of dredging the blood. Before Mr. Wang fell ill, he always paid great attention to health preservation and was very strict in taking care of these flowers and plants. If the servants made any mistakes, they would be punished.

Although the scenery of this garden is beautiful, it is not to Li Changxiao's taste.

Every flower and grass seems to be tightly bound by the rules.

A little depressing.

After a circle, he returned to the master bedroom. The door was still closed. Li Changxiao knocked on the door. After a while, Zhang Mo opened the door when she heard the knock.

At this time, the poisonous fragrance in the house had dissipated.

Zhang Mo also relaxed. She looked calm and expressionless, as if nothing had happened.

"What happened to him?"

Li Changxiao pretended to be surprised and looked at the fainted Wang Bao.

Zhang Mo said: "This person has bad intentions. He just wanted to harm me, but I knocked him out."

Zhang Mo often disdains lying, but she is not unfamiliar with lying, and Li Changxiao has no need to expose her and make her feel embarrassed, so this matter is very natural and rests.

Li Changxiao began to observe the surroundings.

The floor of this master bedroom is made of expensive wood. The bed where Mr. Wang sleeps is carved with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes. It is a wooden bed. And inside the bed, there is a piece of warm jade, which has the effect of keeping warm in winter and cool in summer.

"This is the longevity jade."

Zhang Mo, who always pays attention to Li Changxiao, also casts her eyes on this warm jade. She explained: "This jade was popular in Lijiu City for a period of time. Is there something wrong with this jade?"

Li Changxiao touched the longevity jade, which was slightly cool and extraordinary, but... the effect may not be able to help him live forever.

"This longevity jade may not help people live longer." Li Changxiao shook his head.

"Hmm?" Zhang Mo heard this and also touched the jade, but she couldn't explain its effect.

"Elder Zhang, why not use the sword to cut a hole in this precious jade." Li Changxiao murmured.

"Okay!"

Zhang Mo did not hesitate and unsheathed the long sword. This longevity jade was extremely tough, but it could not withstand the sword in Zhang Mo's hand. With the blessing of Zhang Mo's internal force, this expensive warm jade was like a fragile piece of tofu. It was very easy to cut a hole.

She retracted the long sword.

The sword was a little wet, stained with some fishy liquid, and there was also a sour smell.

Her pupils shrank. This precious jade was indeed problematic. She looked at the hole and saw liquid dripping inside. In the center of the precious jade, there was also a statue. The statue looked very strange, with a toad body and a human head.

Seeing this, Li Changxiao nodded secretly. His guess was right. The world is getting more and more interesting.

He said, "Look, this jade is used as a bed, and Mr. Wang sleeps on it every day. His spirit is absorbed by the jade, and then seeps into the jade little by little, turning into water drops, dripping on this statue."

"It's a life-stealing... black market merchant!" Zhang Mo said two words.

Li Changxiao was stunned for a moment and cast a curious look. Zhang Mo is indeed knowledgeable. Following her, it is indeed easy to understand thousands of ways.

Zhang Mo explained: "The so-called black market merchants are a unified name for a group of people. They can also be regarded as a type of profession. They sell all kinds of goods, and the price is often a person's life."

"The way they take is called the 'life-stealing way', which is to steal other people's lives invisibly."

Li Changxiao asked: "Elder Zhang, what way are you taking?"

Zhang Mo said: "The way of opening the acupoints... warriors, this way is common, but it requires talent. There are some mysterious acupoints that not everyone has, and even very few people have them. By the way, brother Changxiao, you are also very knowledgeable. You can see through the mystery here. You must be a person who has entered the Tao, right?"

"Uh..." Li Changxiao didn't know how to answer for a while. Should he tell him that he is a fairy... a cultivator in the realm of transformation?

Li Changxiao used the dream technique to fool this question.

Although there is a problem with this Wenyu, it cannot explain the fact that Mr. Wang was sick. According to Li Changxiao's guess, this Wenyu can only steal life at most, and it seems to have no necessary connection with the strange disease.

Zhang Mo suspected that it was Wang Bao who had an affair with the Huogan Sect and deliberately let Old Man Wang get sick so as to draw her out and do something bad to her.

Her suspicion was well-founded. After all, Wang Bao's actions were indeed easy to arouse suspicion.

Li Changxiao told her that he thought that Wang Bao was simply blinded by lust.

Wang Bao couldn't hide things.

When Li Changxiao saw him for the first time, he could feel an almost uncontrollable lust from him.

Thinking of this, Li Changxiao looked Zhang Mo up and down. With this girl's appearance, it was normal for her to have such a suitor.

Putting aside the irrelevant thoughts, he looked around, looking for useful clues, and saw an envelope scattered on the ground.

He picked it up to check.

Zhang Mo came over to observe. It was indeed left by the sick doctor. She told Li Changxiao that the sick doctors were a group of crazy people who followed the "self-sacrifice path".

"Soul-sacrifice path", "life-stealing path" and "opening path" are just a strange case, which involves three ways to longevity.

After reading through it, Li Changxiao frowned slightly.

There was a piece of information that caught his attention.

The day after Zhang Mo left, the doctor took Mr. Wang's pulse, took the blood from his middle finger, dripped it into warm boiled water, and then soaked it with detoxifying nephrite for two sticks of incense. The doctor drank the blood and treated the disease. Mr. Wang has a general understanding of medical science.

He prescribes the right medicine. First, he takes seventeen roundworms from the belly of an adult wild boar, puts them in a basin and feeds them for three days. Then he orders someone to go to the apothecary and fetch dozens of medicinal materials. He also goes to the Dayan Flower Sect to ask for a detoxifying flower. , grind it into pollen, mix the pollen with water boiled from the medicinal materials, and feed the roundworms.

Repeated several times, after the potency of the medicine has been absorbed by the roundworms, the roundworms were placed outside Mr. Wang's valley and crawled inside.

This move is indeed effective, and Mr. Wang is getting better day by day.

...

Li Changxiao was surprised. This doctor who took the path of self-sacrifice did have something. This was the first time he had seen this kind of treatment method.

He read on.

Mr. Wang got better on the second day.

Things took a turn for the better.

The abscesses that had disappeared suddenly grew back inexplicably. Not only that, Mr. Wang also developed a tumor on his back, and his hair fell out in large quantities, making him almost unrecognizable.

To make matters worse, as the condition worsened, the wild boar roundworms that crawled into the body could not be excreted, causing the condition to worsen again.

so……

The doctor ran away.

Leaving a letter was also to prevent Zhang Mo from mistakenly thinking that he was the murderer. He did not want to be hunted down.

Zhang Mo frowned. The disease was still spreading in the city. If there was no other way, he could only go to Huo Ganmen.

However, Li Changxiao looked elsewhere.

"This disease..."

His brows gradually became serious.

It reminded him of being haunted by sin and suffering from chronic illness.

Li Changxiao's eyes were filled with sparkle as he looked at the half-dead Mr. Wang lying on the boat.

"No cure?"
