The human immortal shot, how the mere water demon resisted, was beheaded by Wang Yan on the spot, and then Lu Dongbin smashed the clam shell with another palm and rescued Gou Yao.
Gou Yao, with broad characters, about forty years old, with a fair complexion and a long beard under his chin, was trapped in a clam shell by a water demon for two days and two nights. what harm.
After getting out of trouble, the group of three no longer hesitated, returned to the shore, and returned along the road. After a while, they entered the boundary of Jingzhaofu and came to Hezhong County.
After some enlightenment from Lu Dongbin, Gou Yao has also seen it, and said that he will not seek death again. After all, ants are still alive, let alone people
His wife and children are dead, and if he himself is dead, then the Gou family will really be doomed, and when he arrives in the underworld, he will have no face to see his ancestors.
Hezhong County is located in the south of Jingzhao Mansion, at the junction of Jingzhao Mansion and Jiangling, where there are many mountains and rivers, and the terrain is ups and downs.
As for Lu Dongbin's situation, it has already been said that he and Gou Yao knew that now the family has been scattered, he has become a free cloud and a wild crane, and the world is home. I am not too young, but I can't be tossed anymore.
Fortunately, when he was an official, Puzhou still had old friends. If you think about it, you can go to defect to them. After the plague is eliminated, it will not be too late to come back.
Lu Dongbin and Wang Yan had already entered the Dao, and the plague in the capital of Jingzhao Mansion seemed to be a bit evil, unlike natural disasters, they had to investigate it clearly.
If there are evil spirits at work, they can't just sit back and ignore them.
This trip was dangerous and unusual, and Gou Yao was an ordinary person, so it was obviously impossible to be with them, so after some discussions, he decided to go to Puzhou to join his old friends, and then get together again after everything returned to normal.
It's just that in this wild country, the mountain road is difficult, and it is not appropriate to leave him alone, so they plan to send Gou Yao to the county town first, help him find a carriage or something, make arrangements, and then leave.
This place is not far from Hezhong County. Wang Yan and the three are currently in mid-air, driving on the clouds, but the speed is not very fast.
Not far ahead, a high mountain stands, with lush trees and luxuriant branches, and the mountain is majestic, like an ancient beast.
Passing through this mountain, on the opposite side is Hezhong County.
"Ow..."
When Wang Yan and the others passed over the high mountain, a tiger roar suddenly came from the mountain, followed by a cry for help, which seemed very urgent.
"Help! Help..."
Hearing this, Wang Yan looked down and saw a plainly dressed woman in a dense forest in the mountain, carrying a basket on her back, and was running away desperately. Behind her, a colorful tiger appeared.
With a "bang", the woman tripped over a tree root and fell severely. All the things in the back basket were poured out. The woman quickly got up, and instead of running for her life, she went to pick up the things on the ground. .
"Ugh!"
Wang Yan sighed softly, turned his head and said to Lu Dongbin.
"Brother, let's go to the city first, I'll take a look!"
Lu Dongbin nodded, expressing his understanding.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Yan did not hesitate, and quickly lowered the cloud head.
After such a delay, the fierce tiger had already come to the front of the woman, his fangs were exposed, his eyes were full of fierce light, and he stared straight at the woman.
"Ow..."
Another tiger roar shook the hill.
The tiger jumped vigorously and rushed towards the woman.
"what… "
The woman turned pale with fright, waved her hand to block, and closed her eyes to die.
"boom… "
Suddenly there was a muffled sound, as if something fell heavily to the ground.
The imaginary horror scene did not come, but when she heard the sound, the woman opened her eyes, only to see that the colorful tiger fled with its tail between its tails.
And beside her, there is a young Taoist squatting at the moment.
"Wind cold grass, Qiang living root, these are herbs for treating wind and cold, and it's not uncommon. Just because of these herbs, you don't even want to die?"
Wang Yan looked at her back basket, reached out and grabbed a few herbs from it. After reading it, he turned his eyes to the woman and said so.
This woman does not look very old, she is estimated to be in her early twenties, her face is good, her eyes are very agile, and she is very attractive.
Although it is not comparable to those peerless beauties, it has another characteristic. It has an excellent temperament, but the clothes are simple and it is made of coarse hemp.
The long hair is also tied with a strip of cloth, and the hands are a bit rough.
Looking at his face and demeanor, the woman knew that this person was not simple, and that he could scare the tiger away and save herself, that is her savior, and immediately stepped forward to bow down and salute, with a very sincere attitude.
"My little girl, thank Daochang for helping me out. I will never forget the grace of re-creation. Please accept the little girl's three worships."
While speaking, she knelt down in front of Wang Yan, bowed and saluted.
"Young lady, it's just a gesture of effort, nothing to worry about."
Wang Yan stretched out his hand to lead up, and the woman could not bow down immediately.
"Girl, how dangerous it is for you to come here alone to collect medicine in this barren mountain!
The woman pulled the basket aside, picked up the herbs scattered on the ground one by one, cleaned them up and put them back in the basket with a helpless expression.
"What is the importance of my personal safety compared to the lives of my fellow villagers in the whole town? These herbs are all life-saving medicines!"
Hearing her say that, Wang Yan couldn't help but feel a little curious.
"Oh? Where did the girl say this?"
Wang Yan recognized all the herbs in the woman's back basket, and they were basically medicines for dispelling cold, mainly for the treatment of wind-cold, etc., and they were not precious.
"What the Taoist priest does not know, the little girl He Huiniang is from Baihe Town, Hezhong County. Her father used to be a doctor in the town. The little girl followed her father to study medicine since childhood, traveled ten miles and eight townships, and treated some poor villagers! "
"In recent days, for some unknown reason, many elders and villagers in the town have contracted a strange disease, which is already life-threatening. Hui Niang has tried many methods, but it still fails to work, and the condition is getting worse!"
"At the moment, these are the only medicines that can delay the onset of the disease, but there are not enough herbs in the pharmacy, so I went to the county's pharmacy to buy these medicines, and in desperation, Xiu Niang had no choice but to Searching for medicine all over the mountains and plains, I accidentally encountered a tiger today."
After the woman explained and told the truth, Wang Yan suddenly understood.
"I see!"
Wang Yan was thoughtful, but suddenly he seemed to think of something
According to Lu Dongbin, a plague broke out in the city of Jingzhaofu, and many people died. Now, in a small town under the jurisdiction of Hezhong County, which is far away from the city, a strange disease happened by coincidence, which is obviously unusual. .
In this era, the news is stagnant and not well-informed. The plague in the city may not have been spread here, so they do not understand.
If this is the case, the plague is spreading so fast, if this plague is allowed to spread and is not stopped, I am afraid that life will be ruined.
