In this world, it was common to slaughter pigs to cook during festivals. The hair on a pig's head was difficult to remove, so the most common method was to scald it with boiling water before scraping it off with a butcher's knife …
Regardless of whether it was the action or the means used, it was identical to what the old man was doing right now!
If stripping the old man's clothes was an insult, it was as good as rubbing the old man's face against the ground!
"This friend over there …"
Yu Cang's face trembled in regret.
His father had been a good man all his life, and he had never done anything that went against his conscience. For him to be humiliated like this after his death, he had truly failed in his duty as a son!
Ignoring the other party, Su Yin continued scraping away at the old man's hair. 'Si lala!' The old man's hair was shaved off one by one.
In truth, he was also extremely nervous. Sweat was dripping down his forehead.
Why was it different from an animal's?
Based on his experience in treating animals, the root of the Goldstone Snake's poison should have been beneath the old man's hair. As long as he scraped it off, he should have been able to find it … But why was he unable to find anything?
"It seems like the methods of a veterinarian can't be applied to humans …" Soon, the old man's hair was completely scraped off, but he still couldn't find the root of the problem.
"It's already too late. If I can't save the old man … these people will surely beat me to death!"
Discreetly looking around, Yu Cang saw that most of the crowd had already picked up tools such as stool legs, bricks, and watermelon knives. If he were to say that he couldn't save the old man, there was a good chance that they would rush over and beat him to death.
If they were to rush over and claim that the old man wasn't dead, humiliate him, and then claim that he couldn't save the old man, they would surely think that he was toying with them.
Suppressing the anxiety in his heart, Su Yin's mind swiftly raced.
If the old man was an animal, he would have already found the root of the poison and saved him. However, he wasn't familiar with the human body at all, so it was impossible for him to analyze it in a short period of time.
He had been too careless!
If only he had known that it would be so difficult, he would have studied the differences between animals and humans before making a move.
"So what if he dies? Since it has already come to this, I have to save him no matter what …"
It didn't take long for Su Yin to figure out what was going on. Gritting his teeth, he turned to the young man by the side and ordered, "Send someone to catch a pig!"
"???" Yu Cang was stunned.
You are going too far!
I trusted you so much. Are you really playing with me?
"Hurry up!" Su Yin raised his eyebrows and released his aura, giving off a strong pressure.
"Alright!" Even though Yu Cang's face was a little red from holding back his anger, he still turned around and instructed the two young men. The two young men walked out with livid faces, and ten minutes later, a sow that had just been slaughtered was carried over.
"Just leave it there!" Heaving a sigh of relief, Su Yin came forward with his butcher knife and scalded the pig's head with boiling water before slowly scraping it.
"…"
Everyone looked at each other. A storm was brewing in the room, ready to erupt at any moment.
"Yu Cang, where did you get this guy?" After an unknown period of time, an old man couldn't hold back anymore.
"I, I met him on the road!" Yu Cang's face reddened.
"You just met a random person, and you believe him and let him treat you?"
The old man was so angry that he was trembling. "Previously, I thought that you were steady and filial, and that you were qualified to be the clan leader. But now, it seems that you are too disappointing. Once you are done with your father's funeral, you should resign! "
"Yes …" Yu Cang nodded with a trembling voice.
Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't trust others so easily, but … he couldn't accept the fact that his father had died just like that. In a moment of desperation, he had tried everything he could think of. Yet, who would have thought that this fellow was actually a scammer …
"Men, take him away first …"
Seeing that the young man was still scraping the pig's head, seemingly searching for something, Yu Cang felt the last bit of trust in him vanish. He waved his hand and beckoned for the two young men to come over.
"Yes!"
The two young men sneered coldly as they walked over. They were just about to rush over and knock the arrogant brat out when the young man suddenly stopped scraping the pig's head, and a faint smile crept onto his face.
"I understand now …"
Boom!
As he muttered to himself, the heavens and earth seemed to explode. Dense Saint Qi and True Intent radiated from his body, stirring up the surrounding Spirit Qi and causing it to become chaotic.
Of course, most of the people in the room were ordinary people. Even if there were a few cultivators, their eyesight and cultivation were lacking, so they wouldn't be able to discern Saint Origin Energy.
Even so, they could still clearly sense that the young man seemed to have transformed into a completely different person. He might have seemed ordinary before, but at this very moment, it was as if he was an immortal descending from the heavens, noble and inviolable.
The entire room had also become extremely refreshing, causing one's pores to open up.
"This …" Yu Cang also noticed that something was amiss, and his eyes widened in shock.
Previously, he had still thought that the young man was a scammer, but at this very moment, he was starting to believe him.
"Humans are indeed different from pigs. Pigs are on the head, while humans have to shrink according to their size …"
Su Yin muttered as he took two steps forward. Raising the Pig Slaughtering Knife in his hand, he aimed it right at the old man's nose.
"What are you doing?"
Everyone was shocked. Yu Cang immediately rushed forward.
Taking off his clothes, scalding his hair, shaving the pig's head … You said that you were doing it to save my father, but to stab me with a knife, I won't be able to hold myself back anymore!
This was no longer just an insult, but a grudge of life and death!
Yu Cang's movements were swift, but the young man was even faster. Sou! The tip of the Pig Slaughtering Knife landed right below the old man's nose.
Ding!
However, the sight of flesh being sliced apart didn't appear. Instead, the sound of metal clashing echoed.
"…"
Yu Cang, who was charging forward, came to a halt.
Others might not know, but he was well aware that his father was just an ordinary person who had never cultivated before. Even if his corpse was stiff, it was impossible for it to withstand such a sharp Pig Slaughtering Knife. In fact, the sound of metal clashing could even be heard.
Ding ding ding ding!
Ignoring his actions, Su Yin's movements were extremely fast. He continued to stab at the same spot seven or eight times.
Tzzzzz!
After a series of metal clashing sounds, a droplet of black blood seeped out from the old man's nose.
Everyone was stunned.
A dead person wouldn't bleed. Since there was blood seeping out, did that mean that the old man was still alive?
Before he could finish his thought, a series of hurried coughs sounded. Following which, the old man who had been lying motionlessly on the bed suddenly sat up. He took a deep breath, as if he had been holding his breath for too long and could not hold on any longer.
"Father …"
Walking forward, Yu Cang's eyes reddened. He turned to look at the young man beside him with admiration.
To think that the young man would really save his father …
How in the world did he do it?
In contrast to his father's agitation, the old man, Yu Xiong, panted heavily for a moment before slowly opening his eyes. Looking at the crowd around him, he couldn't believe what he was seeing. "I didn't die? T-this … "
He had clearly felt his life leaving his body. How did he come back to life?
"Father, this physician saved you …" Yu Cang hurriedly explained.
"Saved me?"
Yu Xiong was stunned for a moment before he finally understood what was going on. After a moment of hesitation, he turned to look at the crowd in confusion and asked, "This young man over here, I can understand that your medical skills are incredible. You were able to bring me back to life, but … can anyone tell me what's going on between my hair and this sow?"
At this moment, the sow was lying flat on the floor just like Yu Xiong. Two rows of buttons hung in front of her chest, and her head was shaved until it was shiny.
