Taitul escorted Tang Lie and others to a magnificent house in the east of Parthia City. The name was escort because he was afraid that Tang Lie and others would take the opportunity to escape. After Tang Lie and others entered the house, Taitul was outside the door. Hundreds of samurai were deployed for defense.
Ya Yi'an couldn't help but cursed: "This bastard still doesn't trust us,"
Ling Ying sneered: "Don't say it's them, I don't trust you either,"
Ya Yi'an smiled and said: "We are brothers who share weal and woe and should trust each other."
Ling Ying spread his big hands and said, "Give me back the stolen Night Pearl, and I might reconsider this issue."
Tang Lie, Xuan'er, and Xuan Bo came to them side by side. Ya Yi'an took the opportunity to change the subject and said, "My dear friend, you are really sure that you can cure Tie Mo Ao."
Tang Lie laughed but didn't answer.
Ya Yi'an looked around and whispered: "Looking at him, he probably swallowed the inner elixir of the dragon lizard. Don't blame me for not reminding you. Once the inner elixir enters the body, it will happen quickly." Changes, if you are not completely sure, don't be brave, otherwise..." He paused and said: "If anything happens to Iron Mo'ao, I'm afraid none of us will be able to escape with our lives."
Princess Xuanbo couldn't help but said: "If you are afraid, don't follow us. I have confidence in Tang Lie's medical skills."
Xuan'er nodded and said: "I also believe that the master can cure him,"
Ya Yi'an sighed. It seemed that the lives of these people had to depend on Tang Lie. He was worried: "Even if you cure him, there is no guarantee that the father and son will not bite us back."
Ling Ying patted Tang Lie on the shoulder and said: "Tie Mo'ao saved our lives after all. You should save him due to emotion and reason. No matter what the outcome is in the future, we will not blame you."
Tang Lie smiled and said, "I hope the Bandits have the same recovery ability as the Wings. That would save me a lot of trouble." He picked up his equipment box and strode into Tie Mo'ao's bedroom.
Taitul knelt in front of the bed with red eyes and held his father's big hand with both hands. It was obvious that he was indeed a filial son.
Tang Lie said softly: "Senior Tie, if I want to completely relieve your pain, I need to cut open your abdomen..."
Taitul said angrily: "What, you are a sinister and cunning guy who wants to murder my father?" He stood up suddenly, as if he was ready to fight Tang Lie.
Iron Demon Ao hissed: "Tetul, please stay aside..."
Taitul could only stand there.
Tie Mo'ao stared at Tang Lie's face with painful, almost convulsive eyes. After looking at Tang Lie for a long time, he whispered: "Tang Lie, I can't trust you..."
Tang Lie said calmly: "If Senior Tie can't trust me, Tang Lie won't be able to save him."
Tie Mo'ao said in a trembling voice: "You want me to believe you, unless..."
"Unless something,"
"Unless you recognize me as your adopted father,"
"What," Taitul and Tang Lie exclaimed at the same time. Taitul even wondered if his father was in pain and confused, and he actually wanted to admit his son at this time.
Tang Lie said with a smile: "My foster father is here, please accept the child's respect." Only if Tie Mo'ao trusts him can he let go and treat him. He will recognize his foster father and he will have nothing to lose anyway.
A knowing smile appeared on Tie Mo'ao's face: "Good son..." He turned to Taitul and said: "From today on, you and Tang Lie are brothers. No matter what happens, you can't be brothers." The matter of cannibalism,"
Tang Lie felt inexplicably moved. Only now did he understand the true meaning of Tie Mo'ao's adoption of himself as his adopted son. Tie Mo'ao was not sure enough about whether he could cure him. He accepted him as his adopted son just to save him of worries.
"Does father understand him," Teitul protested.
Tie Mo'ao said loudly: "I believe him,"
Tears of extreme anger filled Taitur's eyes. He strode towards Tang Lie, grabbed Tang Lie's arm and said, "My father recognizes you as his son, and you are my brother, Taitur. As long as you Heal your father. From now on, I, Taitul, will regard you as my brother. As long as I have my breath, I will never do anything wrong to you." He said this with anger, and there was some threat in it. If Tang Lie dared to murder his father, and he would never let Tang Lie go.
Tang Lie smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely be able to cure my adoptive father." Although his expression was full of confidence, he was not completely sure in his heart. If it was just as simple as taking out the inner elixir, he should be able to handle it easily, but according to the Ya Yi'an said that the inner elixir will change rapidly after entering Tie Mo'ao's body, which is full of unpredictable factors. However, given his current situation, there is no other choice.
Although he got a decent set of surgical instruments from the Bit Craftsman, he was not familiar with the anatomy of the bandits, and coupled with the lack of necessary drugs, the chance of success was only about half.
Tie Mo'ao seemed to notice Tang Lie's hesitation, and smiled and said: "My godson, I'm not even afraid of you. You're afraid of a ball. I, Tie Mo'ao, have been around for half my life, and my life is very tough. You can just take action with confidence,"
Tang Lie nodded and asked Taitul to get fire and hot water to sterilize the instruments. Thinking back to the time he came to this continent, although it was not too long, he had already performed many operations. Each operation It was always closely related to his life. A smile appeared on the corner of Tang Lie's lips. Without his superb medical skills, he would have died in this strange world long ago.
He used a razor to shave off Iron Mo'ao's thick body hair, revealing his dark skin. Tang Lie put his right hand flat against his gallbladder, closed his eyes and felt the structure of Iron Mo'ao's body. To his relief, it was a member of the bandit tribe. The physiological structure is not much different from that of humans. In the absence of anesthesia, Tie Mo'ao must endure the pain of a scalpel cutting through flesh and blood.
Tang Lie stuffed a ball of white gauze into his mouth to prevent him from biting himself when he was in pain. He twisted the sterilized scalpel and pressed the sharp blade against Tie Mo'ao's skin.
Taitul, who was standing aside, didn't dare to look anymore, turned around and closed his eyes tightly. As the leader of the bandits, he had experienced countless bloody battles without blinking, but this time he lay down On the bed is his father.
The blade smoothly cut through Tie Mo'ao's rough skin, exposing the white fascia. As the dissection was carried out layer by layer, blood began to gush out quickly.
Tang Lie's use of the scalpel with his right hand had already reached the level of proficiency. His superhuman perception immediately told him the progress of the operation. There was no mistake in his judgment just now. Tie Mo'ao's gallbladder was extremely edematous. On the surface, the surrounding organs were not affected.
There seemed to be a faint red light coming out of the gallbladder. Tang Lie deduced that the red light must be emitted by the inner elixir of the dragon lizard, but there was one thing he couldn't figure out. Iron Mo'ao should have swallowed the inner elixir from his mouth. , this inner elixir should stay in the gastrointestinal tract. How did it get into Tie Mo'ao's gallbladder?
In order to eradicate Tie Mo'ao's pain, the inner elixir must be taken out. Tang Lie immediately decided to remove Tie Mo'ao's gallbladder. He used sterilized alloy clips to clamp the bile duct. After quickly separating and ligating the blood vessels, Tang Lie cut off the gallbladder. .
Tie Mo'ao's will was indeed strong. In the absence of anesthesia, he could endure the pain of being cut open, which was even better than Guan Yunchang's scraping of bones to heal his wounds.
In just half an hour, Tang Lie successfully removed the gallbladder. Because he was afraid of reinfection, Tang Lie did not put a drainage tube in Tie Mo'ao's body, hoping that his strong body could successfully overcome this hurdle.
After Tang Lie finished sewing up Iron Mo'ao's belly, Taitul just came over and said, "Father, how do you feel?"
Iron Mo'ao was sweating profusely and nodded feebly. Taitul noticed that the white gauze was still in his mouth. He stretched out his hand to pull out the white gauze, only to see that the white gauze had been bitten by his father. It can be imagined that he had just The pain endured.
Tie Mo'ao breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "I think... I will still live..."
Taitul let out a shout of joy, ran to Tang Lie's side, and held Tang Lie's hands tightly. He had a rough and straightforward temperament, and the hatred in his heart for Tang Lie disappeared in an instant: "Good brother,"
Tang Lie laughed loudly, shook Taitul's hand heavily, and turned his eyes to the huge gallbladder of Iron Demon Ao in the basin. The red light suddenly dimmed, and the entire gallbladder was turning gray.
Taitul also noticed this strange sight and said with surprise: "What is it inside?"
"Gallstones," Tang Lie picked up the scalpel again and carefully cut open the gallbladder that quickly turned gray, and a dark green bead rolled out.
When Tie Mo'ao saw the color of the beads, he was also very surprised. He obviously swallowed red beads, but now they turned into dark green.
Taitul didn't know the origin of the bead. He reached out and picked up the bead. He looked left and right and couldn't see anything strange. He whispered: "Father, how could such a thing come out of your body?"
This sentence made Tie Mo'ao feel uncomfortable. He couldn't help but scolded: "I can give birth to something like you, what else can't I give birth to?"
Taitul was embarrassed when he heard this, but Tang Lie couldn't help but smile.
Taitul rinsed the beads in clean water several times, only to feel that the color of the beads became darker and darker, and finally turned into a pitch-black color like ink.
Tang Lie came close to him, and Taitul said with surprise: "Brother, you are well-informed, what is the origin of this bead?" He handed the bead to Tang Lie's right hand, and Tang Lie held the inner elixir in his palm. , he leaned in front of the lamp and observed carefully. Strangely enough, the beads began to soften. Tang Lie felt a bone-chilling cold in his palms. In panic, he wanted to throw the beads to the ground, but he did not expect that the beads would quickly It turned into a liquid state and wrapped his entire right hand. At first glance, it looked like he was wearing a black glove.
Tang Lie was so frightened that the skin on his palms turned completely black and quickly spread to his arms.
Taitul was the first to react, drawing out his double-edged ax and slashing at Tang Lie's right arm like lightning. His move this time was purely out of good intentions, he wanted to cut off the arm before the black energy spread to Tang Lie's chest. Save Tang Lie's life.
Iron Mo'ao shouted with all his strength: "Stop," Taitul was startled, and the double-edged ax stopped barely an inch away from Tang Lie's right arm.
Tang Lie let out a painful cry, grabbed his collar with his left hand, and tore the clothes on his upper body with force. The black air had spread to the elbow of his right arm, and there was a dense cold air around his skin. He felt this black air He was constantly squeezing his right arm, trying to crush his flesh and blood.
The entire right arm finally turned completely black. Almost at the same time, a bright blue light appeared faintly on his skin. The blue holy dragon tattoo was more vivid than ever before. The tattoo seemed to be fighting with the black. After tenacious resistance, the blue tattoo became brighter and brighter, while the black color gradually faded. After about ten minutes, the black air on his arm had completely disappeared, the blue holy dragon tattoo gradually faded away, and Tang Lie's skin color finally Returned to normal.
Taitul was stunned and touched the back of his head and said: "It's so strange that the beads have actually integrated into your body."
Tie Mo'ao sighed sadly: "God's will, it is indeed God's will..."
Of course Tang Lie understood what he meant. The dragon lizard inner elixir he had worked so hard to obtain was actually integrated into his body.
However, Tie Mo'ao is open-minded by nature. Since Tang Lie is already his adopted son, it is the same for him to absorb the inner elixir. What's more, he has tried it himself, but he has no ability to absorb the dragon lizard's inner elixir. It has long been determined that Tang Lie is the real owner of this inner elixir.
Tie Mo'ao said weakly: "Godson, you don't have to worry. This black bead shouldn't do you any harm, but you two must not tell anyone about today's events..." Tang Lie and Taitul both said at the same time. Nod in agreement.
Tie Mo'ao waved his hand and said: "You guys go down, it's time for me to take a good rest."
Tang Lie and Taitul walked out of the door side by side. Ya Yi'an, who was waiting outside the door anxiously, took the lead to greet him: "What?" In fact, when he saw the expressions on Tang Lie and Taitul's faces, he immediately understood what he was doing. The sentence is redundant.
Taitul smiled and said: "I will have someone prepare a room for you right away. Have a good rest. I will have a drink with my brother in the evening."
After Taitul left, Ya Yi'an asked Tang Lie in a low voice: "My dear, have you taken out the inner elixir?"
Tang Lie knew that this guy had been spying on the dragon lizard's inner elixir for a long time, so naturally he would not tell him the truth. He deliberately sighed and said: "It's all gone."
"It turned into nothing," Ya Yi'an was greatly disappointed and regretted: "The inner elixir is a priceless treasure, but it disappeared like this,"
Tang Lie secretly laughed in his heart and was too lazy to talk to him anymore. He accompanied Xuan'er and Xuan Bo to the backyard. Although there was no sunshine in the underground world, the air here was not as dirty as imagined. Taitul must have spent a lot of time building this house. After a lot of hard work, a lot of flowers and trees were planted in the backyard. The entire backyard was decorated with glass lamps, making it look colorful and magnificent.
