Chapter 7 Twenty Years Old
The dilapidated courtyard of the Xiao Mansion was a hellish scene. The broken wood on the floor was stained with blood. Only half of the round table used for banquets was left, which was inserted diagonally into the wall of the hall. The original delicate bluestone floor was full of cracks.
All the guests in the Xiao Mansion had already left and dispersed. Most of the household servants had left. All the valuable calligraphy, paintings and antiques had been swept away. Only three or two servants were left cleaning the ruins.
The dim sunlight gradually dimmed, and the sun set over the mountain, symbolizing the end of the day and the decline of Xiao Mansion.
a month later

There was a child sitting blankly in the antique room. Xiao Yueming had woken up three days ago, and there was still a dull pain in his chest. He pulled off his clothes and saw a bruise on the top of his left chest. If he looked carefully, there were still needle holes left by poisonous needles.
Xiao Yueming didn't know where to go.
Xu Heng sat alone in the study room filled with sandalwood, his brows furrowed, his pale face already rosy after a month of training: "Alas, the tragic death of Brother Xiao and his younger siblings had a great impact on the Zhongzhou Dao Sect. Now the martial arts has
The confidence of the Dao Sect Alliance has been greatly reduced, and everyone is in danger, fearing that they will become the second Xiao Li in the blink of an eye, not to mention that Brother Xiao died at the Dao Sect Ceremony, the Demonic Way of the Western Regions really made a good calculation."
Thinking about this, Xu Heng felt physically and mentally exhausted and had a constant headache.
"Ding-Deng-Deng"
Hearing someone knocking on the door outside, Xu Heng put away his tired look and said: "Come in."
It turned out to be Xu Lin: "Dad, the elders of Shencaotang are here. Will Xiao Yueming really die? You can't let him die. I still want him to play with me."
Xu Heng sighed: "Lin'er, you have to remember that life and death are determined by destiny, and wealth is in heaven. Dad is not a god. He can only do his best and obey the destiny."
"Let's go and see Elder Hua. He may have a way to cure Yue Ming. If even he can't do anything, I'm afraid no one in the world can save Yue Ming."
In the lobby of the Lin Mansion, an old man with white beard and hair raised his hands and said: "Leader, I have also heard about Brother Xiao. This Western Region Demon Cult is really too vicious and shocking."
"I, Lin, will definitely seek justice from the Demonic Cult of the Western Regions regarding this matter. The main reason for inviting Mr. Hua here today is for Brother Xiao's son, Xiao Yueming. This child has been poisoned by the Soul-Destroying Poison Palm. I would like to ask Mr. Hua to see if there is any
A solution is possible."
"Oh? Soul-Destroying Poison? I have heard about this person for a long time. Didn't Zhang Xiangyang, the soul-destroying poison palmer, have long since retired from martial arts? Was it Zhang Xiangyang who was attacked at the celebration?" Hua Lao asked in surprise.
Xu Lin's expression dimmed and he uttered a
He sighed: "Alas, to be honest with Mr. Hua, it was this person who Zhang Xiangyang took refuge in the Demon Cult at some point. At that time, Headmaster Fang and Headmaster Zhang chased him away, but they were unable to kill him. They only cut off his
One arm, hateful, hateful!”
When Mr. Hua heard that it was really the soul-destroying poison palm Zhang Xiangyang, he touched his snow-white beard and looked sad: "If it is really the soul-destroying poison, I can't detoxify it. This poison was prepared by Zhang Xiangyang himself and detoxified it."
Only he knows the recipe, so we should go see the kid first."
"Okay, Mr. Hua, please come this way."
Xu Heng quickly stood up and went to Xiao Yueming's room with Mr. Hua.
Xiao Yueming's mind went blank. The tragic death of his parents made him feel that everything was so unrealistic. He wished that it was all a nightmare and that when he woke up, he would still be the carefree young master.
The pain in his shoulder brought Xiao Yueming back from his thoughts. He looked down at his hands and muttered to himself: "What should I do..."
"Squeak"
Xiao Yueming heard the door being opened and looked up, only to see an old man with a white beard and Xu Heng walking side by side.
"Uncle Xu" Xiao Yueming's voice was weak.
"Yue Ming, this is Elder Hua, here to treat your injury. Once you are healed, you can continue playing with Xiao Lin."
After Xu Heng finished speaking, Elder Hua stepped forward to look at the wound on Xiao Yueming's shoulder and felt his pulse. His expression was normal and there was no clue. He turned to look at Xu Heng, who understood and said to Xiao Yueming:
"Uncle Xu is going to get some medicine for you first. If you want anything, just tell Uncle Xu. Got it."
In the hall
"Mr. Hua, is there any solution?" Xu Heng asked immediately as soon as he entered the hall, with an urgent look on his face.
Hua Lao was speechless for a while and sighed softly: "Alliance leader, I'm sorry that I can't do anything. This soul-breaking poison has invaded the seven meridians and eight meridians, and there is no way to save it. Judging from the situation, this child should have been poisoned long ago.
He must be dead, strange, strange."
When Xu Heng heard Hua Lao's words, he couldn't help but feel cold and in pain: "What Hua Lao said is true. This child should have died of poison, but I used the thousand-year-old snow toad to hang him."
"What! Thousand-year Snow Toad! This is a peerless divine item!"
When Hua Lao heard about the Thousand-Year Snow Toad, he stood up from his seat in shock, his celestial demeanor gone.
"How could I not know how precious this thing is? Yueming is Brother Xiao's only
Bloodline, and more importantly, the child I have watched grow up, I must save both emotionally and rationally. Besides, this thousand-year-old snow toad is worthless if left unused, and using it to heal Yue Ming will be a waste."
Mr. Hua calmed down and sat down again: "It's a pity, it's a pity. If you give me this snow toad, you can delay the onset of the poison for at least forty years. Now, looking at the child's condition, he will probably live for two years."
Ten years old."
"There is no need to feel sorry for Mr. Hua. The situation was critical at that time. If you refused to accept the snow toad, you would definitely die. Now that you have been able to buy more than ten years, you have already lost your life to God. Mr. Hua, is there really no cure for Yueming?
"Xu Heng didn't give up and continued to ask.
Mr. Hua thought for a moment and said with some uncertainty: "Actually, it's not completely impossible. Medical knowledge is profound and profound. The reason why I can't cure this poison is my lack of ability. If I can find the green pot miraculous doctor, I might be able to find a way."
"The Green Pot Miracle Doctor?" Xu Heng was a little confused.
Seeing that Xu Heng didn't know, Mr. Hua replied: "It's understandable that the alliance leader didn't know this person. I also heard a few words from my master. It is said that this green pot miracle doctor traveled around the world eighty years ago, working for some poor people.
People who heal injuries and illnesses have never left their real names in the world. I heard rumors that he was a man with a green gourd on his body, and the name Green Pot Miracle Doctor came from this."
"May I ask Mr. Hua where to find this green pot miracle doctor?" Xu Heng asked urgently.
"Alas, there is little hope. The Green Pot Miracle Doctor has disappeared from the world for many years. Who knows if he is still alive today."
When Xu Heng heard this, a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart: "Since the green pot miracle doctor is expected to be able to cure the soul poison, I will definitely try my best to find his whereabouts. I hope God can save Brother Xiao for the sake of his integrity throughout his life.
Save Yueming’s life.”
Mr. Hua really doesn't think much of Xu Heng, but he doesn't like to attack him bluntly. The Green Pot Miracle Doctor became famous eighty years ago. Even if he is a genius and has achieved great medical skills at the age of twenty, he is still a hundred years old now.
Even if he is found in the end, he is probably just a skeleton.
"Leader, have you informed Yue Ming of this matter?"
"Oh, Wei Zeng, I have informed her aunt Chang Mu Yin, and I think she will arrive in the next few days."
"The Black Maple Sword Girl from Black Maple Island is Yue Ming's aunt?" Mr. Hua looked surprised, obviously he had never heard of it.
Xu Heng looked tired and said slowly: "Yes, but the reason is quite complicated, so it's okay not to mention it. Regarding whether to tell Yue Ming the truth, we need to discuss it with Chang Muyin. Bi Bijing is the only Yue Ming in the world.
