The miracle doctor who saved lives and injured people was a monster. This was not something that would surprise Li Mu.
He has no prejudice against monsters and ghosts.
Whether it was Xiao Bai, the little snake, or the cow spirit and tiger monster Li Mu had encountered, they were all monsters, but none of them had done anything harmful to anyone.
But it just so happened that the miracle doctor who solved the plague was a rat demon.
This is somewhat intriguing.
The miracle doctor had already walked away, and Lin Yue suddenly said: "I think there is something wrong with this miracle doctor."
Capt. Zhao was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's the problem?"
Lin Yue looked at the big pot and said: "I looked at the medicinal materials in that pot. They are all heat-clearing and detoxifying. If these medicinal materials could cure the plague, so many people would not have died in the great epidemics that had occurred in the past.
Already."
Zhao Captou was surprised and said: "You mean, these people have not been cured?"
Lin Yue shook his head and said: "I have seen these people, and they have indeed recovered, but they were cured not because of this pot of herbs, but because of other reasons... In any case, the miracle doctor never looked at it.
It’s so easy to get up.”
Li Mu thought for a while and then said: "I also think that we should continue to observe and observe. Even if there is nothing wrong with the miracle doctor, if the plague recurs, I'm afraid it will have to happen again."
"That's right." Capt. Zhao nodded and said: "Everyone has worked hard today, especially Li Mu. Let's go to the county to stay first, and then wait a few days to see..."
When they arrived at the county seat of Yangxian County, Capt. Zhao found an inn and gave them several guest rooms.
Everyone, including Capt. Zhao, lives in a room with two people, while Li Mu lives alone. This is to allow him to have a good rest. If the epidemic recurs, he will be relied upon to treat illnesses and save people.
"Taiwei Xuan Palace, the faint yellow is green, the three souls are refined within, the fetal light is peaceful..." That night, Li Mu sat cross-legged on the bed, reciting the soul-condensing method in his mouth.
Today is the third night of the Lunar New Year, which is the most suitable time for soul condensation.
Just after midnight, Li Mu opened his eyes, and a shadow floated out of his body.
As soon as he thought about it, the shadow floated back into his body.
Before tonight, although his magic power was comparable to that of condensing souls, it was not until just now that he refined the soul of embryonic light, making it more condensed and able to freely enter and exit the body.
And the mana in his body has also reached a higher level with the refining of the first soul.
With the substantial increase in mana, he felt that he could try to use the third mantra.
Li Mu made a hand seal with one hand and silently recited the mantra of "fight".
There were no strange phenomena happening around him, but Li Mu felt keenly that his body seemed to have undergone some subtle changes.
He picked up Bai Yi and subconsciously held a sword flower in his arm. The sword moves he had learned before suddenly resurfaced in his mind and connected together smoothly. Li Mu swung the sword uncontrollably, flowing like clouds and flowing water.
Those sword moves are strung together one by one...
At this moment, an inexplicable thought appeared in Li Mu's mind.
Even if he had a sword duel with Li Qing, he was sure to win.
Although the power of the "fight" formula is not obvious, it has raised Li Mu's fighting instinct and consciousness to the limit.
Li Mu has never heard of any magical power or Taoist method that can do this, and he is even more looking forward to the six-character mantra that follows.
However, he had long discovered that the nine-character mantra became more and more difficult to use as it progressed, and the next word might have to wait until he concentrated his concentration before he could master it.
The reason why he was able to refine the first soul tonight was mostly because he absorbed the power of merit and virtue during the day, which reminded Li Mu of the rat demon.
For monsters, this kind of power is also helpful for spiritual practice.
That rat demon has pure evil spirit. He has never eaten human blood, has no resentment in him, and has never contaminated human life. But if he spread the plague, he turned into a miracle doctor and directed and acted a good show.
, used to absorb the courage of the people. Even if no lives were caused, it still violated the laws of the Zhou Dynasty and was not tolerated by the government.
Of course, this is just Li Mu's guess. It remains to be seen whether there is anything wrong with the miracle doctor.
He was away from home, without Liu Hanyan's double cultivation, and he couldn't play with Xiaobai. After a busy day, he was exhausted physically and mentally. Li Mu did not continue to meditate and fell asleep with his clothes on.
The next day, the policeman who had been sent back to the county government by Capt. Zhao to report the matter quickly returned, and there were two more people with him.
These two people were two of the six arrestees in the county government. One was named Qian and the other was named Sun.
The plague is no joke. Every time it breaks out, countless people will die. The county captain obviously takes it very seriously. Three of the six county officials have already come to arrest him.
Capt. Zhao came down from upstairs and said to the two of them: "You are here just in time. Things in Yang County are a bit strange. I suspect that there is something not that simple behind this plague..."
After a while, Capt. Qian frowned and asked, "You mean, someone created this plague?"
Capt. Zhao nodded and said: "The miracle doctor's behavior is suspicious and deserves attention. Moreover, the plague has been present for several days, but not a single person has died. Which plague outbreak have you seen in which no people died?"
Mr. Sun stroked his short beard on his chin and said, "So, it's a bit strange. In the past two days, let's keep an eye on the whereabouts of the miracle doctor to see what else he does..."
In the next two days, people in three more villages in Yang County were infected with the plague.
Although Li Mu and others had implemented isolation measures to prevent the spread of the plague to the greatest extent, considering that the patients would have an incubation period, there might have been carriers of the disease in other villages before they arrived.
Coincidentally, whenever a plague breaks out in a village, the miracle doctor will appear. After treating the people in the village, he will go to the next village.
He marched in a straight line along the official road, and the plague also broke out in a straight line, breaking out along the way and being cured by him along the way.
If by this time, no one has noticed anything unusual, it would be in vain.
The outbreak of plague is usually centered on the place of origin and spreads to the surrounding areas. Such a linear outbreak is impossible.
Moreover, the mortality rate of plague is extremely high. In the past few days, more than ten villages in Yangqiu County have been infected, but no one has died. This is even more impossible.
There is no doubt that the source of the plague is the miracle doctor.
He spread the plague and treated the people along the way, in order to absorb the power of merit and virtue from the people to help him practice.
Li Mu had to sigh, there are people outside people, and there are monsters outside monsters.
By practicing in this way, you not only don't have to kill people, but you can also gain a good reputation. You are much smarter than those evil cultivators who only know how to kill people and extract souls.
Unfortunately, this method is also crooked.
Capt. Zhao said: "It seems that in order to completely quell this plague, we still have to capture the miracle doctor."
Li Mu originally wanted to remind them that the other party was a fourth-level monster, but after thinking about it carefully, even Capt. Zhao couldn't tell. If he spoke, the other two would not tell whether they believed it or not, and he himself would be in trouble.
explain.
He thought for a while and could only say: "This person can quietly spread the plague. I think he has a lot of morals, so it is better to be careful."
Zhao Captou smiled and said: "Don't worry, the three of us join forces, even if we have supernatural powers, we can fight. That person can't be a strong person, right?"
Since Capt. Zhao said this, Li Mu has nothing to worry about.
A quarter of an hour later, the three chiefs Zhao Qiansun, Li Mu, Lin Yue, and another old official who had condensed three souls left the inn and left the city.
Yang County, Xujia Village.
"Thank you to the miracle doctor for saving my life."
"Miracle Doctor, walk slowly!"
…
The plague in Xujia Village has just subsided. The villagers knelt on the ground and watched a middle-aged man in gray clothes go away.
The middle-aged man left Xujiacun with a medicine box on his back and walked into a forest. He staggered and held on to a tree to prevent him from falling.
After sitting cross-legged and meditating for a while, his complexion improved a little. After searching in the forest for a while, he finally found a few medicinal herbs.
He walked to the herbs, rolled up his sleeves, and saw more than a dozen scratches neatly arranged on his wrists, some already scarred, and some still fresh.
He didn't pay attention to the scars and used his nails to make a new wound on his wrist. The blood stayed along the wound and dripped on the herb, which was quickly absorbed by the herb.
He uprooted the herbs, dusted off the soil, and put them in the medicine box.
Then, he walked out of the woods, along the official road, and came to another village.
There was also an outbreak of plague in this village, and more than twenty people had fallen ill. Someone stood at the entrance of the village and looked around. When he saw him, he was surprised and said: "It's the miracle doctor. The miracle doctor is here. We are saved!"
The middle-aged man walked into the village, took out a few herbs from the medicine box, wrote down a prescription, handed it to the village leader, and said: "Prepare the medicine according to this prescription, then add these herbs, boil it into a pot, and drink it."
Can be cured."
"Thank you, the miracle doctor, I will send someone to get the medicine right now!"
The middle-aged man stayed in the village for half a day, until the villagers drank the medicine and recovered, and then left the village amidst the thanks of the villagers.
The villagers gathered at the entrance of the village, knelt on the ground, and watched him leave. No one noticed that hundreds of rats emerged from every corner of the village and left the village.
In the valley far away from the village, the rats gathered together again, surrounding the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man took a breath, and a trace of black air escaped from the rats and was sucked into his body. He waved to the rats and said, "Let's disperse..."
The rats squeaked for a while, circled around him a few times, and scattered away from the valley.
The middle-aged man felt that there was enough telepathy in his body, and there was a strong hope in his eyes, and he murmured: "It should be enough."
At this moment, a white light suddenly appeared on his face.
His expression suddenly became alert, and he suddenly looked towards the back of the valley.
Several figures came out from behind the valley. Capt. Zhao held a bronze mirror in his hand. The bronze mirror illuminated the middle-aged man, but a monster with a human body and a rat head emerged. Capt. Zhao looked at the middle-aged man and said: "
It turns out that he is a rat demon who spreads plague by himself, pretends to be a miracle doctor, fools the people, and absorbs telekinesis. You are quite good at playing..."
