Chapter 739: Difficult Enemy

PreviousBack to directoryNext
There was already a slight chill in the late night of autumn, but fortunately there were no disturbances from snakes, rats, insects, ants and wild beasts, so people could barely sleep peacefully while huddled together for warmth.

A sudden scream in the night broke the silence and woke up countless people, who all looked in the direction of the scream.

The screams were because someone had died, which made the already uneasy people feel even more solemn.

Those who were awakened included Yun Jing, who quickly understood what had happened.

What happened was a wealthy family that took in a little girl during the day. One of the guards died silently in the corner. His death was particularly horrifying. It was as if his flesh and blood had been drained by something. The originally tall man was reduced to a withered corpse.

Corpse, shaped like a skeleton!

Such a death situation was exactly the same as the situation in the small town that Yun Jing went to investigate for the first time during the day.

There are no scars, the flesh and blood disappear.

This situation made Yun Jing's eyes flash. The alien entity had taken action. To be more precise, it was hidden among the crowd here. But why did it only attack one person instead of killing everyone?

Yunjing was a little confused. He couldn't figure out the rules of conduct of foreign civilizations for a while.

Yunjing didn't know how the guard died. After all, it was impossible for him to use his telepathy to pay attention to everyone all the time.

Someone died, and it was a strange way of death. The atmosphere of fear spread in the night, and people were trembling with fear, not knowing whether they would be the next unlucky ones.

The owner of the wealthy family was also alarmed, but he couldn't figure out what was going on, so he could only try to comfort him and let people bury the body in the ground.

After all, they were from a wealthy family, so they were calm when things happened, but then no one dared to sleep.

Yunjing observed everyone carefully, even from the inside out, but found that no one was abnormal.

"Why did you only hurt one person? And then continued to hide it? What kind of hiding method could not even be detected by me, or did you kill one person and then left quickly?"

There are many doubts in the cloud scene as my thoughts flicker.

He carefully analyzed the subtle expressions of each person. If a foreign monster was hidden in the crowd, it would definitely behave differently if it killed someone. However, everyone looked normal to Yun Jing, which was a bit unreasonable.

What kind of hidden means and abilities are they? Or what kind of exotic monsters are they?

In the past, Yunjing had come into contact with not many types of foreign beings. This was the first time he encountered such a harmful method, and there was too little information to judge.

The riot was quickly suppressed by the wealthy family, but people did not dare to sleep because of the shadow, and were frightened to be wary of their surroundings.

But nothing happened next, and no more deaths occurred until dawn, but this did not make people reassured, but made people even more frightened. The more unknown the fear, the more frightening it was.

"It's dawn, it's okay, it's all over." When the white fish belly appeared in the sky, the middle-aged man comforted his family. He was very haggard after almost not sleeping all night. The situation of these fleeing people was similar to his.

After appeasing his family, he added: "Let's get something to eat quickly, we will set off again later."

"Brother, let's just part ways. I'm sorry if you don't mind if you eat and drink for free." Yun Jing hesitated and said. He couldn't feel at ease even if someone had good intentions.

Unexpectedly, the man said: "Brother, don't say that. After what happened last night, we don't know when he died. A little food is nothing. Besides, it's good for us to have a companion and talk. Just don't dislike it."

,real"

"Well, brother, you're so tired. I'll help you push the cart later." Yunjing no longer insisted. Anyway, he could take care of everyone wherever he went.

The man immediately laughed and said, "That couldn't be better..."

Instead of being 'lucky' to pick up wild game, Yunjing and his family ate some simple breakfast, packed up and continued their journey with the team that had already set off.

In fact, most of the people in this group had no clear destination and were just following the wealthy families at the front. People at the bottom who had no independent ideas subconsciously felt that it was safe to follow them.

With Yun Jing helping to push the cart, the rest of the trip will be much easier for the Hanzi family. Even the uneasiness in their hearts has dissipated a lot. They also talked to Yun Jingxiao about how to start a new life after settling down in a safe place.

But accidents always happen inadvertently.

We set out in the morning and after traveling for dozens of miles, the youngest son of the Han family suddenly looked ahead and noticed something. He immediately ran over without even bothering to help push the cart.

"Xiaotu, why are you running away? Come back quickly. What if you get lost? Where can dad find you?" the man shouted immediately.

But at this moment, the eldest daughter next to him pointed forward with trembling lips, tears welling up in her eyes, and said, "Dad, look, is that my mother in front of me?"

"What?" The man trembled, looked forward quickly, and immediately turned pale.

In front of him is indeed his wife who ran away with the martial arts practitioner, but she is already dead. She died on the side of the road. She probably died no more than a day ago. The body has not changed, but almost all the clothes on her body were taken off by someone unknown.

, only the cloth that covers everything is left.

The man didn't care so much, dropped the things in his hands and stumbled over, holding his wife's body and child in his arms and crying.

"My dear, why did you leave first? I thought you could live a good life after leaving. Why did you leave? If I had known this, I would have asked you to stay even if I knelt down and begged." The man burst into tears.

Heartbroken.

He was not so sad when his wife ran away with someone, but he was extremely sad when his wife died. It was not that he didn't care that his wife ran away with someone. He was not that generous by nature, but it was better for his wife to run away with someone who was capable than to live with him.

It was a hard time, but now everyone is gone.

Yunjing helped him push the wheelbarrow and parked it on the side of the road. People were rushing around, some were sympathetic and others were numb. This kind of thing was perfectly normal.

Silently observing the body of the man's wife, she was a pretty woman, otherwise she wouldn't be qualified to run away with a martial arts practitioner. The cause of death was poisoning and accidentally eating a poisonous mushroom.

Even Yunjing could figure out the cause and effect. She ran away with someone, but when she got tired of being played with, she ate everything dry and threw it away to fend for herself. She ate randomly when she was hungry and died on the roadside. People passing by had all the energy on her body.

All the things she needed were taken away, leaving behind the covering cloth was her last act of dignity.

The man's family was sad and sad. After a while, they accepted the reality. Yunjing then came: "My condolences to the elder brother. People cannot be resurrected after death. Let the elder sister-in-law be buried in peace. You must always look forward while living."

They were already dead, and Yun Jing could not revive them. No matter how much words of comfort he said, they were in vain.

"Mom, what would we do without you..." The child's cry was heartbreaking.

The others would not wait for them. The team was almost at the end. The man was cruel and wiped away his tears: "Brother, do me a favor. I will marry her and have children for me. You can't let her have children."

She died in the wilderness, we dug a hole and buried her, and we will pick her up after we settle down."

“Well, it’s easy to do”

They simply dug a hole and buried the woman's body. Yunjing and the others continued on their way to catch up with the team in front. The man's family was reluctant to leave, looking back three times at a time. It was clear from their appearance that they didn't know the meaning of the road ahead.

My family is gone, and I will only live in sadness in the future. How long will it take for time to wash away such pain?

The aimless escape continued. No one stopped to rest during the day. They stayed as far away from the rear as possible, and only ate dry food.

"Doctor, doctor, who is the doctor? Please help me, save my child, he is dying..."

In the afternoon, a young woman held a two- or three-year-old baby in her arms and asked for help in a panic. She asked people everywhere for sympathy, but there was nothing she could do.

Although there was nothing she could do, many people still gave her directions, saying: "Go to the wealthy family in front and ask, maybe they will bring a doctor."

"Yes, your child is about to die. Go quickly."

“There’s nothing wrong with giving it a try, but people may not help you for free, so be prepared to be rejected.”

"Don't say that, there are still many good people..."

The woman holding the baby had an idea. She stumbled towards the wealthy family and asked if there was a doctor. The first wealthy family did not have a doctor. However, the martial arts guard observed the child's condition and said it was due to cold and fever.

He has diarrhea and is almost dehydrated. There is nothing he can do, so he suggests going to the front line, where someone can casually bring a doctor with him.

The woman left with a lot of gratitude, but in a wealthy family with a doctor, the doctor looked at her well-meaningly, but shook his head and said that he was not good at medical skills. There was nothing she could do about this situation, so she should be mentally prepared.

As he spoke, a trace of unbearability flashed in the doctor's eyes. The child was indeed terminally ill and there was nothing he could do, but there were precious medicines that could temporarily kill him.

However, precious medicines can only kill lives but cannot cure diseases. Moreover, they are so precious that they have to be kept for emergencies. It is just a waste to give them to babies who are obviously unable to survive.

Doctors are kind-hearted, but they also have to look at the situation.

The woman was desperate. The doctor's words were equivalent to a death sentence for the child. She was holding the child on the roadside and didn't know what to do. She was alone with the child and had no support. The child was equivalent to her life.

Gradually, the team left, and the woman holding the baby was about to fall to the end.

When Yunjing saw it, he said hello to the man and came forward: "Sister-in-law, can you let me see how the child is doing?"

"You...?" The woman with tears raised her head. Ji Yunjing looked ordinary and very embarrassed. His kind face made people unwary, but he looked too young, so the woman shook her head and said: "

Thank you for your kindness, little brother. It’s useless. I don’t need to trouble you.”

The doctors all declared that there was nothing they could do. She didn't think Yunjing could cure her child.

The man's family next to him had not yet recovered from their sadness. Seeing this, they hesitated to speak. They felt unhappy, and they were miserable people.

Yun Jing continued: "Sister, please tell me the truth. I spent a few days studying, read a lot of medical books, and learned a few tricks. Maybe I can help."

While he was talking, he was also observing the baby's condition. His skin was red and he had a high fever, there was a foul smell, and he had severe diarrhea. It was probably diarrhea caused by eating unclean things, and high fever was also caused by diarrhea.

The treatment is not difficult. Yunjing can think of more than ten methods at once. The simplest is to use Zhenyi Jingyuanqi to help eliminate unclean things and nourish the baby. The effect is immediate, and many prescriptions can cure the disease. In addition, acupuncture

It can also cure babies.

The woman heard that Yun Jing had learned medical skills, and a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes. She immediately knelt down and said: "Little brother, please save my child. As long as you can save him, I will work as a horse for you."

"Don't say that loudly, let me take a look." Yunjing carefully took the baby and explained the cause of the disease. Then he took out a pack of silver needles from his arms and started to administer the acupuncture. The baby's condition improved visibly as everyone watched.

, simply amazing.

It’s the medicine that’s three-part poison. The child is too young, so it’s not good to give him medicine, and there are no available medicines at the moment. Although Yunjing can quickly find it in the wilderness, it’s too conspicuous, and it takes time to brew the medicine. Martial arts methods are feasible.

, but it is not necessary, just acupuncture, the effect is the same, use acupuncture to stimulate the body's recovery ability, and use spiritual energy to secretly nourish.

In fact, Yunjing did not carry a silver needle with him, but it was too easy for him to temporarily obtain a silver needle without being discovered.

After a while, the needle was withdrawn, and Yunjing returned the child to the woman and said, "It happened to be a disease that I was trespassing on. In fact, if the diarrhea and fever caused by food poisoning are properly treated, they come and go quickly. The child is no longer a serious problem."

, but he is still a little weak, and he will be able to continue to be active in a short time. You can clean up the dirt on him yourself."

"Thank you doctor, no, thank you miracle doctor. I don't have anything to thank you for, I just kowtow to you." The woman held the child in her arms and thanked her profusely.

The relationship between men and women was unclear, and Yunjing couldn't help him, so he had to say: "The child is fine, we have to continue our journey." After saying this, he walked towards the man's family.

The man who had known Yunjing for a day immediately exclaimed after Yunjing came over: "I didn't expect that big brother, you have such skills, it's amazing."

Yunjing was a poor scholar before, but after showing off his skills, he was in awe. With such medical skills, how could he not act like a dog?

Yun Jing said modestly: "It's not that powerful, it just happens to be the right time. Besides, it's not overwhelming to have too much. It's always good to learn more methods, maybe you can use them."

"Then..., if you have a headache or fever next time, I'll trouble you, brother," the man who was not good at words said a little embarrassedly.

"That's right, I'm still eating and drinking at your place, brother," Yun Jing said with a smile.

While they were talking, the young woman whose child had been treated by Yunjing actually followed her with her child in her arms. She followed behind her inexplicably but hesitated to speak and didn't know how to speak.

When Yunjing and the others looked over, the woman hurriedly said: "I..., I don't know how to thank the miracle doctor. I said before that I work as a cow and horse for the miracle doctor. I can work, my hands and feet are diligent, and I can also do laundry and cooking."

Okay, I haven’t eaten much yet. If my benefactor doesn’t mind, feel free to do whatever you want.”

[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, www. Install the latest version. 】

Yunjing could see that she was not just climbing up the ladder to rely on him, but she really wanted to repay her kindness.

He was also a poor man. Yunjing asked: "Sister-in-law, where are the men in your family?"

"It disappeared a year ago. I fell down while going up the mountain to cut firewood. My parents-in-law also left early. Everyone was running for their lives some time ago, so I took my children to escape," the woman choked, and tears fell down when she said the sad part.

After thinking about it, Yunjing said: "Sister-in-law, it goes without saying that I want to repay you. I don't know what I will do in the future. How about this, if you have nowhere to go, just stay with this elder brother? Don't get me wrong, no.

In other words, it’s better to take care of each other than to be alone with the child aimlessly.”

The woman raised her head and looked at the man. She remained silent for a while and said with a slight blush on her cheeks: "If the eldest brother doesn't mind, it all depends on the benefactor's arrangement."

People in troubled times, where do so many poor people come from? Why spend so much money if you have someone to rely on when you are desperate?

The man has lost his wife and the woman has a child. It would be a good thing if they could form a family. It was just a matter of course. Yun Jing had the intention to bring them together. Of course, it would be fine if both parties did not have such thoughts.

"Brother, what do you think?" Yunjing looked at the man and asked.

The other party was immediately confused. He probably understood what was going on, and said at a loss: "How can this happen? No, I don't mean anything else. I...I, hey, I don't know what to say."

"Haha, let's settle it then." Yun Jing cut the mess quickly with one word.

The woman held the child and said nothing. The man was so entangled that he didn't know what to do. Then he said: "Sister, if you don't have anywhere to go, just follow him for the time being. If you find a good place to go in the future, just let me know."

He is kind-hearted at heart and doesn't want to see others suffer, but he won't take advantage of others' danger. His wife has only been around for a short time, so how can he have those messy thoughts?

"Brother, you are a good person, and I am not that kind of ungrateful person," the woman whispered.

Yun Jing beside him smiled secretly. Although the atmosphere was deliberately awkward, the result was still good.

As the team continued to move forward, Yunjing did not forget about business even as he mingled in the crowd. However, he always paid attention, and there was still nothing happening within the scope of his mind that he had to pay attention to. He had enough patience to wait for the big fish to take the bait.

Some people had seen the scenes of Yunjing treating children before, and they were amazed by his medical skills. It was inevitable that such a thing as coming here out of boredom would be spread by word of mouth, and people looked at him with more respect. After all,

No one knows whether he will be consulted next time.

Doctors, especially those with excellent medical skills, are the least likely to be offended at any time.

"May I ask where the skilled doctor is? Someone is injured in front of you. Please give me a helping hand. Your help will not be in vain. This is chilling."

Someone from the front came to the back of the team and asked questions one by one. They spoke sincerely and asked Yunjing all the way.

When people looked at Yunjing, those who came to seek medical treatment knew that Yunjing was the doctor with superb medical skills. He did not look at the person through the crack in the door, but said sincerely: "Doctor, please come and ask for treatment."

Injured, no matter whether I can help or not, your trip will not be in vain."

The person sincerely asked for help, but Yunjing was not unwilling to save him. He nodded and said: "It's not too late, let's lead the way."

As he said this, Yunjing greeted the man and the others and said he would come as soon as he could.

If nothing else goes wrong, the man and the woman should be able to come together and form a family after supporting each other for a period of time. He will rescue people and give them some space to be alone together.

On the way to follow the visitor, Yunjing also asked about the general situation. The injured person was a guard of a wealthy family. His horse was trampled by a falling rock and his legs were broken. There were several doctors in front of him, but they were not allowed to trespass.

With such an injury, I was helpless for a while. I heard that there was someone behind me who was a skilled doctor, so I came over to ask for help.

After walking a few hundred meters and crossing the team, Yun Jing came to the injured person's place. He was pale and trembling all over on the roadside. He was gritting his teeth in pain but did not cry out.

Not only was his leg broken, it was also twisted and deformed. The calf bone was broken into several sections, and the flesh and bones were pierced through the flesh. It was terrifying to watch.

Under normal circumstances, his leg cannot be saved, and amputation is the best option. But in the current situation, amputation is tantamount to waiting for death. It is said that he is looking for someone to treat him, but in fact, it is just the owner's dedication.

The injured man was accompanied by his companions, who looked sympathetic and helpless.

"Doctor, can it be cured?" The person who invited Yunjing asked after observing Yunjing's injuries. He didn't hold out much hope. In fact, he was debating whether to abandon him and fend for himself. After all, he was on the run and the guards were unable to protect him.

Master, is it possible that he has become a burden? It is extremely benevolent and righteous to give him something.

Yunjing stepped forward and knelt down and said: "It can be cured. It's not a big problem. Give me a few wooden boards and cloth tapes. I observed it on the way here. There are some wild wound medicines on the roadside. They are..., Trouble.

Pick it for me”

The injured man's companions looked at each other, then nodded and followed suit.

Yun Jing looked at the injured person and said, "Don't worry, brother, I can save this leg. As long as you follow my instructions and train for a period of time, you will not only be able to live like a normal person in the future, but it won't hinder your martial arts practice."

"...Thank you for your kind words," the injured man, who was twitching in pain, forced a smile.

As he spoke, Yunjing took action. He took out the silver needle he had made temporarily. After a few needles, the injured person lost all feeling in one leg, and he was anesthetized with acupuncture.

Then Yunjing set his bones and put the broken bones back into place. When he was almost here, some simple wound medicine was also collected. Yunjing crushed it into pieces according to a certain proportion and applied it to him, using wooden boards.

The cloth strips were fixed and nourished secretly with spiritual energy. He would be able to walk normally in about ten days at most. This was enough. He would be cured immediately without exaggerating.

After that, Yun Jing asked someone to cut down a tree branch and use it as a walking stick for the injured person. Even though the injured person's injured leg was not using any strength, he was actually a martial arts practitioner and could barely walk normally. He could even display 40 to 50% of his strength.

Many people have seen Yunjing's method of dealing with trauma, and their surprise is palpable. If there is another injury like this, having him there will be like an extra layer of protection.

After treating the injured, Yunjing also received corresponding rewards. He was quite considerate and considered that money would be useless on the way to escape, so he gave Yunjing some rice, dried meat and condiments. The quantity he gave was very particular, so as not to recruit people.

Jealous.

Taking the things back to the man and the others, the man and the woman didn't know what they were talking about before. When Yunjing returned, they stopped talking, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across their faces.

"Brother, we took care of it so quickly," the man said, less than a stick of incense later.

"Trauma, it's not troublesome to deal with. No, this is reward. I can have something good for my next meal." Yunjing raised the things he brought back and said with a smile.

The man sighed with emotion: "With my brother's medical skills, good days are just around the corner."

"I know a little bit about it, but I'm still far from it." Yunjing shook his head and said. Medical skills can cure people, but can they possibly govern a country? It can even cure the curse that the human race has been burdened with.

Not long after he came back, someone heard the news and came to ask Yunjing to treat his illness and save others. Yunjing was busy for the next half day. There were so many people fleeing, some were suddenly ill and some were injured. Every time

Yunjing doesn't care if he can get some suitable rewards.

The day passed quickly, and the team stopped for the night. But in the middle of the night, another person died, and two of them died. The death condition was exactly the same as that of the person last night!

Yunjing has been paying attention to this incident since it happened last night, but tonight he still failed to prevent the two people from dying.

Yun Jing "witnessed" the death of those two people. Their eyes were lifeless as soon as they stared, and their entire bodies shriveled up quickly, their flesh and blood disappearing out of thin air and turning into mummified corpses.

If something like this happened again, the atmosphere of uneasiness among the fleeing team became more and more serious, and everyone was in constant fear of themselves.

"One died yesterday, two died today, could it be that three or four will die tomorrow? Where is that guy hiding, and how does he turn people into mummies out of thin air?"

Thoughts flickered, Yunjing felt a little tricky, the opponent was too difficult to deal with, he couldn't even discover the hidden methods, and the methods were even more weird!
