When the old woman saw Qi Ning, she was obviously a little surprised. She turned around and started to leave. However, she was old and her steps were not fast. Qi Ning secretly thought that there was something very strange in this bamboo forest. Since this old woman appeared in this forest, she must have something to do with it. First of all, Catch this old woman and talk about it. Even if there is a misunderstanding, just apologize later.
Since he had this thought, he didn't think much about it. He stepped forward and blocked the old woman's way in a blink of an eye. The old woman screamed "Ah", appearing to be extremely frightened, and took a step back, with garlic at her feet. He sat down on the ground.
Qi Ning said in a deep voice: "Who are you?"
The old woman's body was trembling. She raised a hand, pointed at her mouth, and made a sound of "ah" without saying anything. Qin Ning was startled and realized that this old woman was actually mute.
He didn't know whether the old woman was pretending to be mute, and asked in a cold voice: "Are you the owner of this bamboo forest?"
The old woman immediately shook her head. The tumor on her left eye was not small and looked very scary, but the other eye was filled with fear.
Qining raised his hand and pointed to the row of houses not far away and asked, "Do you live here?"
The old woman nodded and said "ah" twice. Qining didn't understand what she said. The sky gradually darkened and the bamboo forest became even more hazy. Qining held the cold blade in his hand and said: "Get up and take me back." room."
The old woman nodded, struggled to get up, tidied up, turned around and led the way, Qining followed behind. Since he knew that there were weird things in the bamboo forest, he was careful everywhere. The old woman was also within his control. As long as the old woman If there is any slight change, Qining will not be polite.
The two of them arrived at the wooden house one after another. Qi Ning asked the old woman to go to Chi Danmei's room and looked in from the outside. When she saw Chi Danmei lying on the bed, there was nothing strange. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and asked. The old woman asked: "Where is the owner of this wooden house? Why is there no trace of him?"
The old woman raised a hand and pointed toward the horizon, saying "ah" twice. Qining understood what she meant and knew that she meant that the master had gone to a distant place. He thought that there was no trace of human beings around. , it seemed that this old woman was the only one there. He saw the old woman's steps and staggering, as if she was just an ordinary old woman. She pondered for a moment, then pointed to the next room and said: "Open the door."
The pit of bones and corpses deep in the bamboo forest made Qining frightened and he did not dare to take it lightly. Three of the four wooden houses were closed. Qining wanted to see what was inside. The old woman did not hesitate and walked over. After opening the door, Qi Ning asked the old woman to enter the house first. The old woman dared to resist and was very obedient. When she entered the house, it was dark. Qin Ning glanced at it and saw that the scene in the house was very different from the one next to it. There are various kinds of iron tools hanging on the wall, which seem to be weapons, but they are very different from ordinary weapons. There are hooks and scissors, some big and some small. There are no less than twenty or thirty kinds, all hanging on one wall, and in the corner of the room. , then there is an accomplished bookcase with dozens of books inside.
Qi Ning was a little strange. The old woman seemed to see Qi Ning's doubts. She pointed at the equipment on the wall and then made a few movements. The movements made by the old woman were not standard, but Qi Ning understood at a glance. It seemed that It was the action of performing surgery on someone. I couldn't help but be startled. Then I looked carefully and found that the various instruments on the wall really looked like they were used for surgery on people.
He immediately thought of the pit of bones and corpses behind him, and asked in a cold voice: "You kill people?"
The old woman was stunned for a moment, but immediately waved her hands and shook her head, making a few gestures, as if she was explaining, but Qining couldn't understand. At this moment, she suddenly heard a cry from outside, and her voice was anxious: "Is Mr. Miao here? ?”
Qining ducked to the door. With his amazing eyesight, he saw a person walking quickly from the bamboo forest path across the pond, and there seemed to be another person on his back.
The old woman approached the door, pointed at the person opposite, and looked at Qi Ning, with a hint of pleading in her eyes. Qin Ning didn't know who it was. Seeing the old woman's pleading look, she nodded slightly. The old woman went out, and Qi Ning followed behind. Soon she saw the person on the opposite side coming around the pond. Seeing the old woman, she quickened her pace. She was a little surprised when she saw Qi Ning behind the old woman.
Qi Ning had already hidden the cold blade, and saw that the man was in his early forties, with a belt wrapped around his head and a scimitar on his waist. His hands were hanging down from his back, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
The man took a few steps forward and asked the old woman: "Blind woman, is Mr. Miao here? A friend of mine is seriously injured and is dying. Please help Mr. Miao to save him."
The blind woman shook her head and pointed to the horizon. The man frowned and said, "Mr. Miao has gone away? What... what can we do?" He carefully put the man on his back on the ground. Qining saw that the man was motionless, his neck There is an incision everywhere, maybe it has been too long and the blood has coagulated.
Qi Ning only took one look and knew that the man had a vital wound. The man squatted down and probed the tip of his companion's nose. His expression suddenly became sad, and he sighed and said: "He... he is out of breath."
Qi Ning couldn't help but said: "He was cut into an artery and was not treated in time. He will definitely die. What can you do if you find Mr. Miao?"
The man raised his head and said: "Mr. Miao's medical skills are unparalleled in the world... Well, except... Except for Miao Jiang's Immortal Holy Hand who can be compared with Mr. Miao, who in the world can compare with Mr. Miao's medical skills? Mr. Miao can bring the dead back to life, as long as he has a breath. , no matter how serious the injury is, it can still be saved."
When Qi Ning heard the words "Immortal Holy Hand", his heart trembled. He thought to himself that this person also knew Li Xigong. He knew Li Xigong's medical skills. He was really a master of rejuvenation. If Li Xigong hadn't come to the rescue in the first place. , Eve is afraid that her beauty has faded away a long time ago, but Mr. Miao can actually be compared with Li Xigong, and his medical skills are naturally extremely good.
"Do you know Mr. Miao?" Qi Ning asked. This old woman was mute. Qi Ning asked questions, but she couldn't answer. This man seemed to be quite familiar with Mr. Miao and couldn't help but inquire about him.
The man frowned and said: "Who are you? Of course I recognize Mr. Miao. A year ago, I was chased by my enemies and was seriously injured. I almost lost my life. It was Mr. Miao who rescued me here and saved my life." .Mr. Miao has excellent medical skills, and I will always remember his great kindness. This time my friend was injured and had no choice but to come to ask Mr. Miao for help."
Qi Ning thought that according to this, Mr. Miao was a good man who saved lives and healed the wounded. He thought to himself that when he saw the pit of bones and corpses and then saw the ugly old woman, he seemed to have preconceived ideas.
The man sighed and said, "Sir, I'm not here, I'm sorry for disturbing you." He picked up the body of his companion and left in a very lonely manner.
When the man walked away, the old woman turned around and glanced at Qining. A strange look suddenly appeared on her face. Qining couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong?"
The old woman thought for a moment, stretched out one of her arms, put two fingers on the palm of her hand with her other hand, then pointed at Qining's arm, and then at herself. Qining could see clearly this time. , this old woman seemed to see something was wrong and wanted to check her pulse.
If he were a master of martial arts, Qi Ning would definitely not hand over his hand pulse to the other party. However, this old woman obviously had no internal strength. She thought that since Mr. Miao was a miracle doctor and this old woman was following him, she would at least notice something was wrong with her. , it might as well let him take a look, she stretched out her hand, but she was still cautious. The old woman put two fingers on Qining's hand. After a moment, she showed a smile, and Qining asked: "What's the problem?"
The old woman shook her head and said "ah" twice. Qining felt a little confused. Thinking that Chi Danmei was still in the house, he asked: "Is there a stove for making a fire? A friend of mine was injured and also caught cold. I'm worried She’ll be bitten by the cold.”
The old woman didn't say much, turned around and went to one of the rooms, and quickly brought a stove over. Qining hurriedly stepped forward to take it, brought it back to the house, took some dry wood and started a fire. The old woman even found a stove. When the clothes came over, he knew at a glance that they were the clothes of an old woman. Although they were old-fashioned, they were still clean. Naturally, Qi Ning couldn't change clothes for Chi Danmei. The old woman lit the oil lamp on the table and went over to buy Chi Danmei's clothes in person. Mei changed her clothes, but Qi Ning was always wary and did not go out, but turned his back to Chi Danmei.
After everything was done, Qining thought of Master Lou Wen who had given him the medicine. Master Lou had said that Chi Danmei would be able to wake up in three or two hours at most. He thought that Bai Yuhe had given Chi Danmei twelve hours, and this had already passed. It's almost halfway, and by tomorrow morning, the twelve hours will be here. At that time, Bai Yuhe will pursue it personally. Chi Danmei's future can only be decided after Chi Danmei wakes up.
I have protected Chi Danmei for a day today, which is considered worthy of her. The marriage between Chu and Qi has not yet been completed. Because of Chi Danmei's assassination, the situation has changed. Naturally, I have to seize this opportunity. , to reverse the situation, but we cannot stay here forever.
She made up her mind that when Chi Danmei wakes up, she can protect herself and leave.
At this time, it was already dark outside. The evening wind blew and the bamboo forest made a rustling sound. Thinking of the pit of bones and corpses in the bamboo forest behind the house, Qining felt a little uncomfortable. After the old woman changed clothes for Chi Danmei, she went out. When he left the door, Qin Ning saw that she had no ill intentions and let her go. With his martial arts skills today, he was not afraid of anyone with ulterior motives. He just stayed by Chi Danmei's side, waiting for Chi Danmei to wake up and turn around.
He was a little suspicious in his heart, thinking to himself that on the tent boat, the old man said that there was a small temple here in the bamboo forest, and there were two monks in the temple, but this was not the case. After all, this was because the old boatman had lost his memory due to his old age No, there is still another mystery involved. I feel puzzled and confused.
After more than half an hour, Qining suddenly saw a figure flashing past the window out of the corner of his eye, and shouted in a deep voice: "Who is it?" The figure was extremely fast, and it was definitely not the old woman. Holding the cold blade in his hand, he stood up suddenly, and then I wanted to go out and take a look. Who knew that I just stood up and felt dizzy. I didn’t have any strength under my feet. I didn’t feel anything when I sat down. When I stood up suddenly, I immediately felt it. He was so weak that he couldn't hold himself up, so he sat down on the ground.
