Chapter 65: Delay Time of Traditional Chinese Medicine (2 in 1)
The dark Chinese medicine shop was filled with a strong smell of medicine. Lin Qian looked at a mature woman who came out of the back room with tea. It was she who said the words just now.
Seeing the arrogant look on this woman's face, Lin Qian narrowed her eyes, a flash of violence flashed in her eyes, but suddenly Lin Qian lowered his head and looked at Coco. At this time, Coco had woken up and was wiping her eyes and looking up at him. , eyes full of confusion:
"dad."
Hearing the words "Dad", Lin Qian's face flashed with a touch of softness, and the violent color in his eyes also faded a little:
"It's okay, dad is here."
Lin Qian's tone was very gentle, no longer as rude as before, as if the person who spoke to the old man before was not Lin Qian.
Hearing her father's voice, Coco nodded and continued to huddle in Lin Qian's arms. She looked up at her father with slightly red eyes:
"Dad, my sister-in-law can't be saved."
Hearing Coco's question, Lin Qian was slightly silent. After a while, he had a smile on his face and rubbed Coco's head:
"It's okay. Dad has a solution, so don't worry."
Hearing what her father said, Keke had a slight smile on her face and nodded in Lin Qian's arms.
As for the woman named Xiaoru, looking at Lin Qian and Coco huddled in Lin Qian's arms, her face was very arrogant, and her eyes were disgusted with Lin Qian, even though Lin Qian was bringing a very cute little girl. .
But so what, the people who usually come here to ask for medicine are all humble and their words are full of respect and humility, just so that the master can give them the medicine out of kindness.
She has never been like Lin Qian, who clearly came here to ask for medicine, but had such a disrespectful attitude. This really made her disgusted.
Lin Qian looked at the woman's eyes full of disgust, her eyes were gloomy, she reached out and rubbed her face to make her stiff face return to normal. She ignored this brainless woman and moved away from the side. He sat down on a chair and said to the old man:
"I came here this time because I heard that you can heal evil ghosts and revive them, so I'll give you a favor. If I hear this woman say a word from that dog's mouth later."
Having said this, Lin Qian paused for a moment, a smile slowly appeared on his face, ignoring Xiaoru's cold eyes, and continued:
"Then, old guy, your Chinese medicine shop may disappear today. You should know that I have the ability to do it."
When the woman heard Lin Qian's extremely arrogant words, she frowned and her face suddenly darkened:
"Where did this kid come from, so uneducated? How did your parents teach him?"
But before Xiaoru finished speaking, Lin Qian's eyes narrowed instantly, the smile on his face slowly disappeared, his eyes flashed with red light, and suddenly the entire Chinese medicine shop seemed a little darker, with an inexplicable coldness in it. It permeates the Chinese medicine shop.
Figures with flashing red eyes appeared in the Chinese medicine shop one after another, all staring at Xiaoru. Lin Qian looked at this woman, with anger in his eyes:
"It seems that you didn't take my words to heart. Do you think this old guy can protect you? Or do you think that since I have revived and you guys can just cure me, you can make me compromise?"
Speaking of this, Lin Qian grinned, revealing a set of fangs:
"Maybe you haven't figured out the situation yet. The reason you have the confidence to say this is simply that you have what I need, but have you ever thought about it? I don't seem to need you to give it to me. I can get it myself. I just need to kill them all. I can get what I want from you."
As he said this, Lin Qian had a ferocious look on his face:
"So, you can die."
When Xiaoru heard Lin Qian's words, her face changed slightly, and her eyes were full of disbelief. She had never thought that this could still be the case, and it was exactly what Lin Qian said. As long as she killed them, Lin Qian could get him.
What I want is just a little troublesome.
Looking at Lin Qian's posture, she didn't seem to care about this trouble. Xiaoru looked at Lin Qian with a ferocious expression. She knew that she might have met a person who was about to go crazy after being tortured by a ghost today. She wanted to say something and stabilize herself.
Look at Lin Qian.
Although she didn't think Lin Qian could do what he said, it was still very troublesome to fight here. She didn't want to cause trouble to the master because of her, so she spoke.
But just as she was about to speak, a hand was placed on her shoulder, and a coldness suddenly began to spread throughout her body. Xiaoru froze in place for the entire moment, her eyes full of confusion and fear.
She didn't expect that Lin Qian would be so decisive and attack her directly. Wasn't he afraid that he would get nothing?
Feeling her body rapidly losing consciousness, Xiaoru's face turned pale. She felt that she might die. Xiaoru turned her head slightly, her eyes full of fear, and looked at the old man sitting on the chair for help.
"Alas~!"
At this time, a sigh came. The old man felt helpless and knocked the ground heavily with his crutch. The dull knocking sound appeared in the Chinese medicine shop. In just a moment, Xiaoru, who was originally stiff and motionless, suddenly bent down.
He started panting heavily and his face turned extremely pale.
And the starving ghost who grabbed Xiaoru's shoulder turned into a flash of green and red and disappeared into the Chinese medicine shop.
Lin Qian looked at all this, his eyes narrowed slightly, a smile slowly appeared on his face, he didn't say anything, he just looked at the old man quietly.
"This old guy is very powerful and a bit difficult to deal with. But if we really make a move, it's not impossible to kill him, it just takes some time."
But now, what Lin Qian lacks most is time. If he really fights with this old guy, he will not be killed in less than an hour, so this is the reason why Lin Qian does not continue to take action.
The old man "looked" at the figures with scarlet eyes around him, feeling helpless:
"Young man, don't be so angry. Too much anger can easily harm your body. Especially for a young man like you, you need to be careful."
Lin Qian smiled and did not comment on what the old man said. For him now, what kind of anger can hurt his body.
When the old man saw that Lin Qian didn't answer, he didn't care. Although he was very surprised by the path this young man took. When he saw this young man for the first time, he was indeed shocked by him, but he only recovered in an instant.
Already.
He has lived for so long and has never seen anything. Although this young man is indeed very special and a genius, that's all. So the old man continued:
"That's what Xiaoru said. After all, she has followed me all year round and most of the ghost masters she has met are the same, so she is inevitably a little arrogant. I hope you can understand."
Hearing what the old man said, Lin Qian smiled, looked at Xiaoru who was standing behind the old man, grinned, and didn't care about the hateful eyes:
"Old guy, you should be glad that she followed you and didn't move outside, otherwise she wouldn't be alive now. For someone like her, once she goes outside, she may die in a few days. After all, if people don't have self-awareness,
He will die quickly."
When Xiaoru heard this, her face turned blue and white. Although she was very angry, she didn't say another word. She understood now.
This young man is simply a madman. He really wanted to kill her just now. If his master hadn't taken action, she would have died.
The old man looked at Lin Qian with his cloudy eyes and nodded. He agreed with what Lin Qian said. Xiaoru's character was indeed not suitable for going outside. The ghost controllers he usually encountered were too groveling. Maybe in
In her mind, the ghost controller is basically like this, that's why she is so arrogant.
Now it is rare to meet such a strong ghost controller, so she can realize that ghost controllers are not so easy to talk to. Otherwise, she will keep thinking that after he dies, it may not take a few days for her to go down.
Accompany him.
"Young man, you are right. Xiaoru actually needs to change her mentality, otherwise it will be difficult to survive in this world."
When Lin Qian heard what the old man said, his eyes narrowed. He knew what the old man was paying attention to. He was not a fool:
"Old guy, you better be careful not to hit me. If you're not afraid that I'll kill her, just give it a try."
When the old man heard what Lin Qian said, he sighed and said nothing. According to his idea, he wanted Lin Qian to take Xiaoru away. With Lin Qian's current strength, he could just take care of Xiaoru a little.
She has no worries in the supernatural world.
It's a pity that Lin Qian refused without hesitation and didn't even have a chance to speak out.
Lin Qian narrowed her eyes, looked at the old man and said:
"Old guy, I don't want to talk nonsense with you right now. I just want to know if it's true that you have a method to cure evil ghosts and revive them."
"It's true. The Chinese medicine I prepared can indeed cure the evil ghost's resuscitation. In my eyes, the evil ghost's resuscitation is also a disease. As long as it is a disease, it can be cured." The old man said it directly without hiding it.
Seeing how happy the old man was, Lin Qian narrowed his eyes. When he heard the old man's explanation of the ghost's resurrection and his views, Lin Qian's eyes flashed:
"Chinese medicine? How effective is it?"
"The decision on this change depends on the recovery of the ghost and the degree of terror of the ghost. If the terror of the ghost is too high, the effect of traditional Chinese medicine will only have some effect." The old man explained to Lin Qian.
When Lin Qian heard this, his face darkened slightly, he lowered his head and thought for a while, then continued to ask the old man:
"How many packets of Chinese medicine are needed to suppress the revival of ghost paintings?"
Hearing Lin Qian say this, the old man's face changed slightly, he raised his head and stared directly at Lin Qian, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly:
"You controlled the ghost painting! How did you do it? You obviously didn't..."
At this point, the old man seemed to realize something and stopped talking. He lowered his head and began to think.
A fierce light flashed in Lin Qian's eyes. The old man seemed to know something, but he didn't want to say:
"This old guy seems to know something, but is he unwilling to say it because of some concern?"
Lin Qian thought this in his heart, but although he was curious, he didn't want to ask. He already had a lot of troubles and didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
At this time, the old man raised his head and his tone returned to his previous calmness:
"If you want to suppress a powerful ghost like Gui Hua, you will need at least ten packets of traditional Chinese medicine, and it will take you up to seven days longer to revive. This is the limit. Once you reach this limit, no matter how much traditional Chinese medicine you take, it won't help."
Hearing this, Lin Qian's eyes turned slightly, thinking in her mind:
"Now the recovery time of Gui Hua is a little more than two days. If what the old man said is true, then including the seven days of delay, the total is nine days."
"Can you control 40% of the ghost painting's supernatural power within nine days? Although it is a bit difficult, it is not impossible."
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Lin Qian's face:
"Old guy, ten packets of Chinese medicine, I promise you a condition, or I will save your apprentice's life in the future, what do you think?"
Hearing Lin Qian's words, the old man was slightly silent. He leaned on crutches and thought for a while, then nodded and agreed to Lin Qian's conditions:
"Deal, ten packs of Chinese medicine. You will protect my apprentice once in the future. No matter what the circumstances, you must protect my apprentice's life. Moreover, if my apprentice has not done anything that will harm your interests, you can't do whatever you want.
Kill my apprentice."
Hearing the old man's additional conditions, Lin Qian's mouth twitched. This old guy is a man. After thinking about it, Lin Qian nodded and agreed:
"Okay, just do as you say."
When the old man saw Lin Qian agreeing, he felt slightly relieved. To be honest, he was really afraid that Lin Qian would kill his apprentice just after he rescued her. Judging from Lin Qian's previous behavior, he believed in Lin Qian.
Most likely it will.
"Xiaoru, go and get ten packets of Chinese medicine."
Xiaoru looked at Lin Qian with a gloomy expression. She listened to the whole conversation between Lin Qian and her master. She now knew that Lin Qian was simply a lunatic among lunatics. What a joke to control ghost paintings. Then
But it's a puzzle piece that contains an extremely terrifying ghost. Isn't Lin Qian afraid that the ghost will come to his door?
Moreover, according to the master's wishes, it seemed that he planned to entrust her to this person, but he refused the person, and he refused simply and neatly, without any delay.
Although she didn't want to follow this young man, she felt uncomfortable being rejected like this.
When she heard the master asked her to get Chinese medicine, even though she was a little reluctant, she still went. Looking at Xiaoru walking towards Houwu, Lin Qian's eyes flashed with coldness:
"If this brainless woman still can't figure out where she is, it's only a matter of time before she dies."
Looking at Xiaoru entering the back room, Lin Qian did not pay attention, but continued to ask the old man:
"Old guy, do you know where Zhang Xianguang is?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, a little surprised. This time he was really surprised:
"You met him? He didn't kill you?"
When Lin Qian heard this, his face suddenly became extremely ugly:
"Old guy, you seem to be very optimistic about that old man. Tell me, where is he now?"
Seeing Lin Qian's unkind tone, the old man understood. It seemed that the young man's evil spirit was most likely to be revived because of Zhang Xianguang's death. Thinking of this, the old man sighed:
"Well, I really don't know. He has only come to my place a few times. He only came here to buy medicine. Apart from occasionally chatting about ordinary things, he didn't say much."
Hearing what the old man said, Lin Qian's eyes narrowed. It was not that he suspected that the old man had lied to him. This was actually unnecessary. Considering the old man's current situation, concealing Zhang Xianguang's whereabouts made no sense.
