"This is what happened..." The old woman calmed down and recalled carefully: "Lian'er and I have been living in a dilapidated temple outside the city. We go into the city to beg at dawn every day. When I was poisoned, Lian'er and I were begging on the street as usual. Later, I suddenly heard footsteps stop in front of me, and then I smelled the fragrance of buns. I asked Lian'er if there was a kind person who gave us buns. Lian'er said happily that yes, and they were two big and white buns. So I hurriedly pulled Lian'er to kowtow to the kind person who gave us buns. The man just said, "You're welcome, you should eat the buns quickly" and left in a hurry. I just thought that Lian'er and I were lucky to meet a kind-hearted person early in the morning, but I never expected that he...he They actually put poison in those two buns." The old woman's voice trembled and her face turned pale: "Lian'er and I just took a bite of the bun, and our stomachs immediately hurt so much, and then we both fainted and knew nothing... I thought Lian'er and I would lose our lives, but I didn't expect to meet good people. Thank you for saving our lives, my benefactors. Thank you... We have nothing, and we can't repay your life-saving grace. I, an old woman, can only kowtow to you. "The old woman wanted to get up and kowtow to Bai Suzhen and others. Bai Suzhen stopped her and persuaded her gently: "Old man, there is no need to do this. Our Bao'an Hall was originally a place to practice medicine and save people. Saving you and your little sister is just our duty. There is no need to be so polite."

Ziying also said, "Old lady, your poison has just been cured, don't get too excited. By the way, you just said that although you didn't see what the man who harmed you two looked like, you remembered his voice. Old lady, can you describe the characteristics of that man's voice?"

The old woman quickly responded, "That person's voice is hoarse and sharp, and very easy to recognize."

Bai Suzhen pondered and said, "So if that person spoke in front of you again, you would definitely be able to recognize his voice, right?"

The old woman nodded and said excitedly: "Even if I go to hell, I will never forget the voice of the man who harmed us. If he speaks in front of me again, I will definitely be able to recognize him."

"This will make things much easier." Bai Suzhen had already made up her mind, and she said confidently, "Old man, don't worry, I, Bai Suzhen, will definitely seek justice for you and your little sister, and will never let the perpetrator go unpunished."

"Miss Bai, I, an old woman, would like to thank you for your great kindness." The old woman groped and held Bai Suzhen's hand tightly, with a look of gratitude on her face.

Bai Suzhen looked at the old woman's blind eyes, frowned slightly, and opened her red lips. She was about to ask why she was blind, but she saw the little girl named Lian'er on the bed slowly waking up. So she changed the subject and said, "Old woman, you and your granddaughter should have a good rest for a while. I'll have someone bring you some food later." After that, she looked up at Ziying and said, "Ziying, my eyesight is not good. You stay and take good care of me and my granddaughter."

Ziying responded respectfully, "Yes, Miss Bai, I understand."

Bai Suzhen nodded, and left the room with the other four messengers. As soon as they walked out of the door, they were met by Xu Xian who was hurrying in.

"Mr. Xu." Bai Suzhen greeted him.

Xu Xian had obviously been running all the way here, with beads of sweat on his forehead. He panted slightly and said anxiously, "Miss Bai, Xiao Qian said that an old man and a little girl were poisoned. Are they in the house now? Let me take a look at them and see if I can help them get rid of the poison."

The four emissaries behind Bai Suzhen looked at each other, and Bai Fu said to Xu Xian, "Doctor Xu, you can rest assured. The poison that the old woman and her grandson were poisoned with has been cured by our Miss Bai. They are no longer in danger of their lives and are resting in the house."

Xu Xian was stunned when he heard this, then he let out a long breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, relaxed, and said, "It's good that the person is okay..." After a pause, he asked, "Miss Bai, I wonder what kind of poison the old woman and her grandson were poisoned with?"

Bai Suzhen glanced at Xu Xian, opened her red lips slightly, and said lightly: "The poison that the old woman and her grandson were poisoned with was Crane's Beak Red."

"Crane's Beak Red?!" Xu Xian's body was shaken, he was extremely shocked. Crane's Beak Red was extremely poisonous, there was no medicine to cure it, the poisoned people were always dead, he had never heard of anyone who could cure the poison of Crane's Beak Red.

"Bai, Miss Bai, were the old woman and her granddaughter really poisoned by the Cranberry? Have you cured them of the Cranberry poison?" Even though Xu Xian knew that Bai Suzhen was well versed in medicine, he still couldn't believe that there was someone in the world who could cure the toxicity of Cranberry.

"Mr. Xu, although the Crane's Beak Poison is extremely poisonous, it is not unavoidable. It's just that some of the methods used by us in the Xuanmen sect cannot be explained clearly to you at the moment. I think Mr. Xu probably hasn't had breakfast yet. Why don't you have breakfast first and talk about the rest later." Bai Suzhen had something on her mind and had no time to explain more to Xu Xian. She immediately ordered Heimian to arrange for Xu Xian to have breakfast first, and then she hurried away with the three envoys Bai Fu.

Looking at Bai Suzhen's receding back, Xu Xian was still unable to come back to his senses for a long time: "Did Miss Bai really cure the poison of the red-crowned crane?" He murmured and turned to look at Heimian.

Heimian shrugged, pointed behind him, and said, "Didn't Doctor Xu hear the noise in this room?"

Xu Xian had just noticed the faint sound of talking coming from the side room after being reminded by the black face. He listened carefully and found that the two people who were talking were indeed an old man and a young man. In the face of the facts, he no longer had any doubts. He exclaimed in amazement and whispered: "Miss Bai can actually detoxify the poison of Hedinghong. She is really the reincarnation of Bodhisattva."

Heimian glanced at Xu Xian and thought: It is true that the Bodhisattva reincarnated as Weibi, and the Bodhisattva's heart is true. In order to save two mere mortals, he lost twenty years of power. If it were any other cultivator, Weibi would be able to do this. But there was no way to explain this to Xu Xian, a mortal. He took a deep breath and said to Xu Xian: "Doctor Xu, let's go."

"Oh..." Xu Xian looked at the room again, and then followed Heimian away.
