7. Chapter 7 Poisoning Incident

The village chief's home is not far from the Yun family, just go around two hills to get there.

Yun Sheng has been getting stronger recently, but within a quarter of an hour, he had already seen the stone house of the village chief's house.

When she passed by, the village chief happened to not be at home, but the village chief's wife, Granny Liu, was there. She told Yun Sheng that the village chief had gone to the Dharma Temple to greet the new magician.

"Great Wizard? Hasn't there always been only magicians in Jiaoye Village?" Yun Sheng saw Granny Liu busy with farm work, so he helped her with the farm work while asking about the new magician.

Although he cannot sense the elements of magic, Yun Sheng has been in and out of the temple many times and knows more or less about the magic system.

In a remote village like Jiaoye Village, most of the people stationed in the village-level Dharma temple are magicians. This time, the person who came to the Dharma temple was actually a great magician. No wonder Yun Sheng was curious.

Grandma Liu smiled kindly and said: "According to domestic rules, it would be good if our Dharma Temple can hire a magician who knows simple medical skills. We are lucky. The manpower of magicians at the village and town level happens to be from Shui'an City.

A great wizard Yang was transferred here. He likes places with beautiful mountains and clear waters, so he chose our village. It is said that he also knows light magic."

Yun Sheng was shocked after hearing this.

The magic of Wuji Continent is divided into four natural magics based on different attributes, namely earth, wind, fire, and water. However, on top of the four natural magics, there are other secondary magics, among which light magic is one of them.

One of the most obscure and difficult mutation magics to learn.

It is also called holy magic and is a miraculous healing technique that is beyond the understanding of modern medical techniques.

Light magic sounds contrary to modern medicine, but it is also the most tempting to Yun Sheng.

It seemed that she had to find a way to obtain the qualifications of a herb-gathering boy this time. After learning that the other party was a powerful magician, Yun Sheng strengthened her determination to become a herb-gathering boy.

Yun Sheng originally wanted to ask more about the new great wizard, but before he could ask, Granny Liu next to her suddenly turned blue and threw her short body forward.

Fortunately, Yun Sheng was smart enough to help her.

Grandma Liu was only sixty years old. She was from the mountains and had a strong body. How could she faint for no reason?

"Grandma Liu, what's wrong with you?" Yun Sheng saw Grandma Liu's face clearly. She was pale, sweating like rain, and her lips were slightly purple.

She quickly helped Grandma Liu sit down against the tree and checked her tongue coating and pupils.

The tongue coating was normal, the pupils showed slight signs of dilation, and Granny Liu was already a little confused.

This sign looks like poisoning, but it is not poisoning.

Yun Sheng took a closer look and found that there was a small wound on Granny Liu's ankle. The blood on the wound had not yet dried, and the color of the blood was red.

Grandma Liu was laid flat in the shade of a cool tree. The wound was fresh and the blood was bright red. It was not a wound stung by a poisonous snake or a bee. The specific cause of the wound must be found out in order to prescribe the right medicine.

Yun Sheng lowered his head and searched around. In the direction where Granny Liu was standing earlier, Yun Sheng found the culprit who caused Granny Liu's poisoning.

A cluster of dwarf wildflowers with needle-shaped leaves, stems covered with barbs, and small lotus-shaped flowers on each plant.

"Three-petal mandolin?" When Yun Sheng discovered the poisonous flower, his face showed a bit of joy.

The three-petal Mandala is a rare medicinal herb. Most people in Wuji Continent do not recognize this wild flower.

But Yun Sheng's memory of medical knowledge from her previous life told her that this flower was an excellent raw material used by nomads in ancient times to develop plant anesthetics such as Ma Fei Powder.

Grandma Liu must have been accidentally hooked by the thorny stem of the Mandala while cleaning weeds just now. The anesthetic poison of the Mandala entered her body and made her dizzy.

It is not difficult to treat the anesthetic effect of mandolin. Its petals contain anesthetic poison, but its leaves are the best antidote.

Yun Sheng carefully picked the leaves and squeezed the juice onto Granny Liu's wound.

After cleaning Grandma Liu's wound, Yun Sheng dug up the mandolin cluster by the roots. This herb was of great use to her.

After a while, Granny Liu came to her senses. This kid, Yun Sheng, knew some sideline medical knowledge, and sometimes it was even more useful than the magicians from the Dharma Temple.

Regardless of Yun Sheng's repeated pushback, Granny Liu took out a pair of exquisitely crafted straw sandals from home, "Xiao Sheng, these straw sandals were originally made for you, Sister Xiu Xiu, but unfortunately they were made too small. My mother-in-law thought they were just right for you to wear.

Just keep it."

Xiuxiu is the village chief's granddaughter, three or four years older than Yun Sheng.

Yun Sheng looked at the pair of shoes, no longer resisting, and took the shoes. It happened that the village chief grandfather also came home at this time. After hearing Yun Sheng talk about going to the Dharma Temple, he asked Yun Sheng to go to the Dharma Temple without saying a word.

The Queen of Heaven waited at the entrance of Dharma Temple.

Yun Sheng thanked the village chief and his wife and walked towards the other end of the village with his straw sandals and the cluster of freshly dug mandolins.

Yun Canghai left five copper coins for Yun Sheng to buy straw sandals. Since Yun Sheng got the straw sandals for free, it was equivalent to saving five copper coins. Prices in small mountain villages are low, and five copper coins are not a small amount. With these five copper coins

, Yun Sheng could have developed the hemostatic agent earlier.

After Yun Sheng discovered that a small mandolin could anesthetize the strong Granny Liu, she came up with an idea.

The appearance of Brother Leihu and the strange boy made her realize that in a continent where magic and martial arts are rampant, it is obviously unreliable for a loser like her to rely on bone needles to protect herself. She must find a better one.

Methods of self-protection.

At the end of the village is a blacksmith shop. As soon as I approached, I heard a tinkling sound.

A blacksmith wearing a coarse cloth bag and with muscles all over his body like a hill was wielding a big hammer and pounding the red-hot soldering iron. He was Tie Gang, the only blacksmith in Jiaoye Village.

Tiegang and Yun Canghai from the blacksmith shop are drinking buddies. Ping'er will go to Yun Sheng's house for a few drinks when he has nothing to do. He only has a naughty son and has always been jealous of Yun Canghai for raising a well-behaved and sensible daughter.

Seeing Yun Sheng coming to the door alone, Tie Gang opened his mouth and said loudly: "Xiao Sheng, are you here to get the bone needle?"

"Yes, Uncle Tie, are the bone needles I asked you to make for me last time ready?" In Yun Sheng's previous life, all acupuncture used were gold and silver needles, but after arriving in Wuji Continent, the needles of this era

Smelting technology lags far behind modern times, let alone small mountain villages like Jiaoye Village.

Even the best blacksmith in the village, Tiegang, would have a hard time making acupuncture needles of such high purity. Fortunately, in this era, there was a kind of bone needle, which was made of animal bones. Although it was not as good as gold needles, silver needles were more dexterous.

, but very solid and durable.

Most of the villagers use it to mend clothes, but Yun Sheng uses it for other purposes.

Yun Sheng took the bone needles and examined them. There were ten of them, large and small. Tiegang's craftsmanship was very good, and the bone needles were polished smooth and durable.

Just as Yun Sheng was about to thank Tie Gang, he suddenly caught a glimpse of an inconspicuous knife placed on the blacksmithing table beside Tie Gang.

When he saw the shape of the knife, Yun Sheng's eyebrows jumped and he almost blurted out: "Scalpel!"
