"I don't want to listen to him. I just want to know how to treat my current condition." Guo Zhenghe waved his hand and interrupted the old man.
"Your whole body is collapsing. I'm sorry, I can't treat you." The old man waved his hand.
"Do you still have family and children?" Guo Zhenghe was silent for a moment.
"What do you mean?" The Miao Zhaoxing looked up. He felt very uneasy.
"Find a way to treat me. Otherwise, some people will die with me. I'll give you one day. Hurry up."
Cough, cough, cough. Guo Zhenghe got up and left. The old man was trembling with anger. He wanted to get up and kill this young man who dared to threaten him.
He hurriedly called the Miao Qingfeng and told him what had happened.
"What? The village leader was killed?!" The old man was very surprised. In his impression, the village leader was almost omnipotent. How could he be killed by an outsider with so many amazing skills?
"What's Guo Zhenghe's background?" the old man asked.
"His background is very deep. He is a disciple of a big family. You know, outside, it's not like here."
"So, his threat might be true?" the old man asked.
"Yes," the old man said.
"Ah, what should we do?" The old man immediately became anxious. He had diagnosed Guo Zhenghe and knew his current situation. It was very dangerous. He could not be saved.
"He is very sick now. I can't treat him. If the Miaoxi River is here, there might be a way." The old man called Miaoxi River by his name. If it was before, he would never dare to call him by his name.
"Are you sure the village leader is dead?"
The old man asked. "I'm sure. It's not just the photo. The reason why Guo Zhenghe is so sick is because he drank Miaoxi River's blood," the old man said.
"What?!" The Miao Qingfeng was very surprised when he heard the news.
"Drank his blood?"
"Yes, he must have been poisoned by the Gu Poison first. There was no way to treat it, so he used this method. However, his blood is both medicine and poison. Now, his body is about to collapse." The old man was very anxious.
"Right, the Blood Orchid!" The old man's eyes lit up.
"It may not work," Miao Qingfeng said because he knew that Miaoxi River had also been studying the Blood Orchid.
"Let's give it a try."
The old man was now the person with the highest status in the entire village. In addition to his seniority, now that Miaoxi River was not around, many people still listened to him.
The Blood Orchid flower was soon ready.
"What is this?" Guo Zhenghe, who had received the news, was surprised to see the blood-red flower.
"The Blood Orchid is a legendary panacea in Miaojiang," the old man said. "It can cure all kinds of diseases. If you take it for a long time, you won't age."
"Oh, so magical. How do I use it?"
"Just take it directly."
"Good, very good." Guo Zhenghe picked up a flower and put it into his mouth. He chewed it a few times.
It had a unique fragrance and sweetness. After it entered his stomach, he waited for a while and felt a little warm. His stomach felt more comfortable.
"Mmm." He ate another 10 flowers. His body was slightly warm. The effect seemed to be good.
"It's a little useful. Let's wait and see."
In a bamboo building in the village.
"What did you say? He killed Uncle?" After hearing Miao Qingfeng say that Miaoxi River was dead and that it was most likely related to Guo Zhenghe, Zhao Young-Ho was very angry.
"I'm going to avenge Uncle."
"Save it!" Miao Qingfeng grabbed him.
"You're going to kill him, and then what? You're running away. Do you know who he is and how powerful he is?"
"What should I do? Don't I avenge Uncle?" Zhao Young-Ho asked.
"What should I do?" Miao Qingfeng was deep in thought for a while.
"I have an idea. Let someone do the dirty work."
"Dirty work? Who's the dirty work?" Zhao Young-Ho was stunned.
"You don't know. You don't have to worry about this. Remember, don't be rash."
Miao Qingfeng went to Miao Zhaoxing's house and brought something back.
"Uncle, this is what Zhaoxing asked me to take care of. Since Zhaoxing is gone, I'll leave this with you." Miao Qingfeng passed a book to him.
"This is Miaoxi River's medical book?"
"Yes. His research on medicine and Gu poison are all recorded in this book."
"Good, good, good. Qingfeng, I was right about you!" The old man was very happy. He opened the book and took a look.
"Ah, why is there only half a book?"
"I'm not sure. When I got it, it was only the first version."
"Mmm, good, good." The old man nodded.
"It's okay. You can go back to work."
"Okay." Miao Qingfeng smiled and left.
The old man immediately flipped through the book. He knew that it was good stuff. Miao Xihe's style was very overbearing, and he could be quite ruthless when things went wrong. None of them dared to voice their displeasure. However, there was one thing they had to admit: his talent. His talent in medicine and poison could be described as unparalleled. He was able to learn almost everything right away. Furthermore, his research was more thorough than theirs. He did not manage much of the village's affairs over the years. Instead, he spent most of his time on medicine. As such, his medical book was very valuable.
After flipping through a few pages, he suddenly stopped and read the content on this page carefully a few times.
"What a bold idea!" He sighed.
Guo Zhenghe stayed there for three days. He found that the so-called Blood Orchid was actually not enough to treat the disease in his body. It could only temporarily suppress it. He was still coughing and coughing up blood from time to time. He then went to Miao Zhaoxing.
"Not even the Blood Orchid?" He was surprised.
Although the Blood Orchid was a sacred medicine in Miaojiang, it was not an elixir. It was actually a kind of licorice root. It might have a very strange effect in some aspects, but it was definitely not omnipotent.
"You need to think of another way," Guo Zhenghe said. "Hurry up. I can't stay here forever."
"I have another way," Wang Yao said. "I saw it in Miaoxi River's medical book notes."
"Oh, tell me."
"There is a big lake next to our village called Soothing Gods Lake. There is a divine fish in it."
"Divine fish?"
"Yes, according to the words passed down in the village, it has existed for at least 300 years."
"A fish more than 300 years old? Do you want to catch it?"
"Yes, that divine fish was studied by the old chief, Miao Xihe, and others even before that. It lives in the Soothing of Gods Lake. Our ancestors hunted it in the beginning. They used all kinds of poisons, but none of them worked. As such, they speculated that there was something in its body that could resist those poisons. It has been more than 300 years, and it might have even become a spirit."
"Then catch it!" Miaoxi River said.
"Well, we don't have professional tools."
"I'll find someone to help you."
"It's best not to let outsiders see it."
"Okay."
Guo Zhenghe acted very quickly. Soon, all the outsiders in the village were cleared out. The reason was that some kind of terrible poison had been found in the village and they were worried that they would be infected.
Then, a team of professionals came. They were secretly armed. They were secretly called by Xu Xinyuan. This also made Miao Zhaoxing realize that Miao Qingfeng was right. The young man had a lot of power behind him. They had boats in the village, but they were all small boats. It didn't matter.
So, the fishing operation began.
They used live pigs and sheep to slowly float to the surface of the lake. This was the ritual passed down in the village.
"Will it appear?"
"It definitely will."
When the pigs and sheep floated to a certain position, a huge black shadow appeared in the lake.
"It's here!" Looking at the black shadow, Guo Zhenghe was also very surprised.
They were not lying. It was really a big fish. It was so big that it was a little scary. It was more than 30 feet long. It was hard to imagine that there was such a big aquatic creature in a freshwater lake.
In the mountain village thousands of miles away …
"What? They went to the Valley of Thousands of Medicine?"
"Yes, and it seems that they have chased all the outsiders out of the valley," Guo Zhenghe said. "A group of armed militants sneaked in.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Ah, this Mr. Guo really knows how to play!" Wang Yao praised.
"I have people keeping an eye on it," Jia Zizai said. "There should be news coming soon. Now that Miao Xihe is dead, the defenses in and out of the stockade have been relaxed a lot. It will be easy to get news from inside."
