Silver Overlord

Chapter 41: Mixed feelings of sadness and joy

Views:

Zhou Hongda and his wife were the first to return to Yan's house with the purchased food. As soon as they arrived, they started cooking without Yan Liqiang saying anything.

Then Zhou Yong and Liu Qiang came back with the gauze and alcohol, and Yan Liqiang also started to get busy. He personally took the gauze bought by the two people to the big pot in the Yan family blacksmith workshop to boil it for disinfection, and then hung it in the yard to dry for use. Then he replaced the mattress and bedding on Yan Dechang's bed with new and clean ones.

Finally, before noon, Zhao Qifeng returned with Doctor Hong from the Jirentang Medical Clinic on East Street in Qinghe County.

As the saying goes, there is always a brave man under a big reward. Yan Liqiang spent all the money, and Doctor Hong, who came to the Yan family, also began to treat Yan Dechang with all his heart.

Doctor Hong's secret weapon for treating sword wounds is the two medicines he secretly prepared. One of the two medicines is a translucent liquid plaster that is applied to the wound. It is said that it can accelerate the healing of the wound and relieve the pain in the affected area. The other is a dark red pill. Doctor Hong said that if the pill is taken with water, it can replenish the body's lost qi and blood.

Taking two approaches at the same time, after changing and feeding Yan Dechang's medicine again, Yan Liqiang discovered that Yan Dechang's pale lips finally had a hint of blood, and his breathing became steadier, and he couldn't help but feel a lot more at ease.

Just like in the previous life, diseases that cannot be cured by township hospitals may be cured by district and county hospitals. Diseases that cannot be cured by district and county hospitals may be cured by tertiary hospitals. Everyone has different ability levels, and their judgment of patients is also different. Just because the doctor in the first town cannot cure a disease, it does not mean that other doctors cannot cure it either.

At noon, when everyone had just finished their meal, there was a noise of carriages and horses coming from the yard outside the Yan family. Yan Liqiang, Zhou Yong and others walked out of the yard and saw Qian Su, Lu Peien, Zhou Tiezhu, Lu Wenbin and seven or eight guards of the Lu family riding rhinoceros horses to the Yan family.

“Uncle Qian, Sixth Master…” Yan Liqiang hurriedly went to greet them.

Yan Liqiang was not surprised that Qian Su came. The moment he arrived at the craftsmen's camp, he had already reconciled the grudge with his father. What Yan Liqiang did not expect was that the Lu family also sent someone, and the person who came was the Sixth Master of the Lu family, who brought with him a steward and servants to guard the house, and the momentum was not small. Among the people brought by the Lu family, Yan Liqiang took a look and found that at least two of them had a calm momentum and sharp eyes, and seemed to be masters.

When these people arrived at Liuhe Town on their rhinoceros horses, they had already alarmed many people in the town. At this moment, just outside the Yan family, many people were peeking into the yard.

"How is Dechang?" Qian Su, who looked tired and exhausted, jumped off his horse and asked while grabbing Yan Liqiang's arm.

"I just asked the county doctor to change my father's medicine. My father's condition is better than this morning..."

"Let's go inside the room and take a look. I hope we're still in time..." Lu Payne said in a deep voice.

Yan Liqiang glanced at Qian Su and found that Qian Su winked at him. Yan Liqiang nodded and took the two of them to Yan Dechang's room. As for the others, they stayed outside and did not follow in.

Seeing Yan Dechang lying on the bed, Qian Su's eyes also turned red. Lu Peien felt Yan Dechang's pulse and looked at his bandaged wound. Then he heaved a long sigh of relief. A look of relaxation appeared on his tense and serious face. He nodded to Yan Liqiang and said, "Fortunately, we are still in time. Thanks to Brother Qian for coming to inform the Lu family that something happened at Master Yan's home. We rushed all the way here and finally arrived not too late!"

"Sixth Master, what do you mean by this?"

Lu Pein smiled slightly, then took out a cloth bag from his arms, and then untied the bag, revealing a half-fist-sized object completely sealed with wax. He crushed the wax and found a jade box made of white jade underneath. He opened the jade box and found a fiery red pill the size of a longan. At the same time, a strange fragrance drifted through the room.

The fragrance is light and elegant, making people feel refreshed with just one sniff.

Yan Liqiang's eyes suddenly widened. At this moment, even an idiot would know that this pill was definitely not ordinary. "Sixth Master, what...what kind of pill is this?"

"This is the Resurrection Pill collected by the Lu family. This Resurrection Pill is the most famous healing medicine in the world. Legend has it that as long as there is a breath and the heartbeat continues, taking this Resurrection Pill can bring the dead back to life. This Resurrection Pill was given to the old man by an old friend who he had known for many years on his 60th birthday. The old man's old friend was an inner disciple of Lingshan Sect, one of the four major sects in the world. He once made contributions to Lingshan Sect and thus obtained this sacred medicine from Lingshan Sect!" Lu Pei'en looked at Yan Liqiang meaningfully, "Today, when the old man heard that something happened in Mr. Lu's family, he asked me to bring this Resurrection Pill..."

"As heaven and earth bear witness, I, Yan Liqiang, swear here today that I will never forget the great kindness of the Lu family and Mr. Lu, and I will repay them in the future!" Yan Liqiang solemnly clasped his fists and said to Lu Pei'en, tears streaming down his face with excitement.

Unless one has seen a loved one fall into despair, one would never understand the feeling of being helped in such a time of need. At this moment, as long as Yan Dechang could be saved, let alone repaying the favor, he would probably agree to let Yan Liqiang sell himself as a slave to the Lu family.

Seeing Yan Liqiang's excitement, Lu Pei'en said sternly, "Young Master Yan saved a life of the Yan family that day. Today, the Yan family is in trouble. How can the Lu family just stand by and watch!"

"Li Qiang, don't be polite. You can express your gratitude later. Now let your father take the resurrection pill and recover soon!" Qian Su said from the side.

"Yes, yes, yes, Uncle Qian is right!" Yan Liqiang wiped his tears and asked Lu Pei'en, "I don't know how to take this resurrection pill. Do you need me to get some water?"

"No water is needed. Just help your father up, let him raise his head and open his mouth!"

Hearing what Lu Pein said, Yan Liqiang carefully helped Yan Dechang half sit up, leaned him against his arms, and then gently pinched Yan Dechang's mouth open.

Lu Pein picked up the Rejuvenation Pill from the jade box and placed it in front of Yan Dechang's mouth. Then he took out a small jade needle from the jade box and gently pierced the Rejuvenation Pill. In an instant, a strand of lush green liquid as thick as a hair flowed out from the Rejuvenation Pill and fell into Yan Dechang's mouth. When that strand of liquid flowed out, the fragrance in the whole room instantly increased several times.

As the liquid drained away, the Resurrection Pill became smaller and smaller, until it became like a deflated balloon, leaving behind a layer of red bark as thin as a cicada's wing, which Lu Payne gently placed into the jade box.

Yan Liqiang carefully put Yan Dechang back on the bed and watched Yan Dechang's condition without blinking.

Miraculously, within less than two minutes after taking the liquid from the resurrection pill, Yan Dechang's pale face slowly became rosy, and his breathing became smoother and steadier.

Yan Liqiang's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down at this moment.

“After taking this resurrection pill, your father will wake up in one hour at the shortest and two hours at the longest, and his body will slowly recover. Just take a good rest. The dan bark in this jade box is not an ordinary thing. When your father wakes up completely, you can use hot water to dissolve the dan bark and let your father take it. Then your father will recover faster!” Lu Pein said, and handed the jade box in his hand to Yan Liqiang.

Yan Liqiang said nothing, but bowed deeply to Lu Payne.

Three people walked out of the room. After knowing that Yan Dechang was fine after taking the elixir, the people outside the room became happy. The depressing atmosphere in the Yan family was instantly relieved.

"Master is such a good person. I said that Master will be fine, he will be fine..." Zhou Tiezhu smiled and wiped his tears, equally excited.

"Brother Tiezhu, let's go to the living room. I want to ask you something!"

After asking two people to guard the door of Yan Dechang's room and pay attention to the movements in the room, Yan Liqiang called Zhou Tiezhu to the living room next door and asked him in detail about what happened yesterday, especially the appearance of the man who hacked Yan Dechang and Zhou Tiezhu.

Zhou Tiezhu could tell the whole story clearly without missing a single detail. As for the man's appearance, it would be difficult to describe it clearly just by his mouth. Zhou Tiezhu only remembered that the man's most obvious feature was a pair of triangular eyes and a black mole on the left side of his face. As for the rest, even if Zhou Tiezhu could tell it, others might not be able to imagine what he looked like.

Unable to describe the man's appearance, Zhou Tiezhu was so anxious that he scratched his head and sweated profusely.

To find someone based on just a pair of triangular eyes and a mole on the face is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Seeing that Zhou Tiezhu really couldn't describe the man's appearance, Yan Liqiang asked a few people to wait in the living room for a while and went to the kitchen. A few minutes later, Yan Liqiang came back with a one-foot square wooden board, a shaved charcoal core, and a small scraper in his hand.

As Zhou Tiezhu was narrating, Yan Liqiang was drawing on the wooden board with charcoal core and scraping with a knife, making continuous revisions. Finally, a clear human face slowly took shape on the board.

When Yan Liqiang's last stroke took shape, Zhou Tiezhu looked at the sinister face that finally appeared on the wooden board. His eyes suddenly turned red like a bullfight. He pointed at the portrait drawn by Yan Liqiang and said with gritted teeth, "It's him, it's him, it's this man who injured the master yesterday..."

As for Qian Su and Lu Pei'en, they were already dumbfounded by the vivid and realistic face that Yan Liqiang had drawn on the wooden board. The look in Yan Liqiang's eyes was simply astonishing...

Not to mention Lu Pei'en, let's just talk about Qian Su. At this moment, in his eyes, Yan Liqiang was even more shocking than the auspicious sign he saw when Yan Liqiang succeeded in horse stance a few days ago.

Such a "unique painting skill" has never appeared in this world...
