"OK, please wait for a moment," Wang Yao said.
The old man's illness was caused by an evil cold that entered his brain. Naturally, he needed to use hot medicine to expel the cold. It would take a considerable amount of time to remove the root of the illness with ordinary herbs. Wang Yao probably couldn't wait any longer.
The main herb Wang Yao chose was Dangyang flower. The flower was like fire, like the sun, and it replenished Yang Qi. It was a pure Yang herb with obvious efficacy. In addition, he chose some Ziyu, which could promote blood circulation and dredge up blood stasis and clear channels and collaterals. The Qi and blood in the brain were not flowing smoothly. In fact, it was not only the brain that was affected. The circulation of Qi and blood in the body was very poor. First, it was because of his age. Second, it was because of the illness.
The three of them sat quietly in the room.
"Dad, how do you feel?"
"My head doesn't hurt anymore, but I don't have much strength in my body," the old man said weakly. The old man said weakly. He had been tormented by this headache all these years. He couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, and had no energy. His body was getting worse and worse. His son was filial. He took him to many places and saw many doctors, but the effect was limited. At most, it was better in spring and summer. But when it came to late autumn and winter, he didn't dare to go out. He was afraid of the wind. When the wind blew, it was like being stabbed by an awl. It was so painful that he wanted to die.
"You don't say. This young doctor is really something!"
"Yes, I also heard about it from others," the middle-aged man said.
In the next room, Wang Yao was slowly decocting the medicine.
"What is he doing?"
"He should be decocting the medicine. I smell the smell of Chinese medicine."
They sat quietly in the room. It was not good for them to walk around. Originally, the slightly younger man with glasses wanted to walk around. As soon as he stood up, he found the leader's eyes fell on him. He sat down again.
How long do I have to wait? He complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. The leader was waiting, so couldn't he wait?
They waited in the room for a full hour and a half. They just sat there. Then, they saw Wang Yao coming in with a white porcelain bottle.
"The medicine is ready. Drink it and try." Wang Yao poured out a small cup and handed it to the old man.
"Okay." The old man tested the temperature and drank the cup of medicine in one gulp.
"And then?"
"Wait," Wang Yao said succinctly.
"I'll go."
After waiting for another half an hour, Wang Yao checked the old man and confirmed that there was no problem.
"Alright, you can leave now. Come back in ten days."
"Ten days?"
"Yes."
"How much is this medicine?"
"One hundred thousand," Wang Yao said.
"How much?" The three men were stunned. They had heard from Wang Yao that the medicine would be expensive, but they didn't expect it to be so expensive.
"What is it?"
"It's okay. I'll pay," the middle-aged man said after a long silence. Then, he signaled his secretary to transfer the money.
"Alright, you can leave now."
The two of them helped the old man out of the house, left the courtyard, and got into the car.
"Dad, how do you feel now?"
"It's good. My head doesn't hurt anymore. It's warm and comfortable," the old man said. In the past few years, his head had never been as comfortable as it was today. Even if he wore a cotton hat, he would still feel cold and painful. The pain was from the inside out, not from the outside in.
"That's good." The middle-aged man was relieved. As long as it was effective, the money was not wasted.
"I still think it's a bit expensive," the man with glasses said.
"It's expensive for a reason. Let's go."
The car slowly left the mountain village.
In the car, the old man sighed and said, "I really didn't expect such a capable young man to stay in such a small mountain village."
"You can consider poaching this person to your city. Isn't your city doing a talent introduction program?" the old man said to his son.
"Well, OK, Dad," the middle-aged man hurriedly replied.
I'm afraid he won't go. A dose of medicine here can be sold for 100,000 yuan. It's almost equal to my annual salary. How much can he earn if he goes there? Of course, this was what he thought. He couldn't say it out loud. It would go against his father's wishes. He could see that his father's temperament was very good today.
"Let's go. I'm a little hungry."
"What would you like to eat?"
"Would you like to drink some mutton soup?"
"OK, Xiao Dai, find a restaurant."
"Yes."
Thousands of miles away, Guo Zhenghe was in a very bad mood because people had died in the county under his jurisdiction. This time, five people died at the same time. The place where the five people died was a village on the outskirts of the county. There were men and women. He rushed over as soon as he received the news.
The criminal investigation experts from the province also rushed over at the first moment. Their faces were also very ugly. Originally, they came with a halo to help solve the thorny problem here. However, the problem hadn't been solved yet, and now a new problem had appeared.
Five people died at once. This was a big case.
Guo Zhenghe communicated with the criminal investigation experts.
"The deceased didn't have any obvious signs of struggle or fighting before death. We didn't find any other useful information."
"What about poisoning?"
"We need to wait for the results."
"Sorry to trouble you."
"You're welcome. We came down to solve this problem."
After a simple conversation with the criminal investigation experts and comforting the family of the deceased, Wang Yao left the crime scene. He immediately called Xu Xinyuan and asked him to meet at a place.
"Young Master."
"Uncle Xu, how is the situation over there?"
"I came into contact with a person. Preliminary judgment is that he escaped from there. I'm considering further contact. Why did you call me back in such a hurry? Did something happen again?"
"Five more people died yesterday."
"Died again? Was it poisoning?"
"The autopsy is still ongoing, but my first feeling is that the cause of death is the same as the 11 people who died last time."
Guo Zhenghe took a big puff of his cigarette. It showed that he was in a very irritable mood at the moment.
In less than a week, 16 people had died. This was definitely a major case. What was this in the place he was in charge of? This was a lack of law and order. This was his lack of leadership. This was a stain on his political career. It might be a black spot that could not be erased. It was very likely that it would affect his future promotion. This was only one point. He thought about more. What if this thing happened to him? Those people could be killed quietly. Would he be killed so easily?
The key question was, what was their purpose?
"Young Master, I think you can leak this matter out at an appropriate time."
"Leak?"
"Yes, let more leaders know," Xu Xinyuan said. "Although the village is said to be difficult to enter and the people there are quite capable, it is still a small village. An ant can't fight an elephant."
Guo Zhenghe narrowed his eyes and thought for a while.
"Pressure people with power, but we don't have any evidence!"
"We don't need evidence. We can try if we suspect."
"If it doesn't work, I can send a message to let them know about this matter."
"Let me think about it."
"Well, Young Master, you have to be careful."
"Well, I know," Wang Yao said. "Hurry up. If there are any difficulties, just tell me."
"Got it."
The results of the autopsy came out. These five people were poisoned. This time, the concentration of the poison was stronger than the last time. It could be concluded that this was a murder. Moreover, this case and the previous case were very likely to be the same person. However, other than that, they didn't collect any clues. They didn't even have a decent suspect.
Damn it!
The people from the provincial capital were also under a lot of pressure.
That night, Captain Yang, who led the team, was smoking in the office. Suddenly, he heard someone knocking on the door outside.
"Come in." He shouted, but there was no response from outside.
"Hmm?" He looked up and looked outside. Then, he continued to look down at the file.
Knock, knock, knock. There was another knock on the door.
"Come in!" This time, his voice was a little higher. However, there was still no response after waiting for a while.
"What's going on?"
He put out the cigarette and walked to the door. He reached out and opened the door. It was empty outside. There was no one.
"That's strange!"
He turned around. His body suddenly tensed up. He reached out and took out the pistol at his waist. At the same time, he quickly looked around.
There was a gap in the glass. Wind blew in from the outside. The room was still the same. There was no change.
He carefully searched the small office. He then carefully poked his head out of the window and looked outside. There was no one. There were only policemen on duty at the door.
No one?
He turned and went to his desk. There was a sealed file bag on his desk. Just as he got up to open the door, someone had put the file bag on his desk without him noticing.
He carefully checked the file bag. He put on rubber gloves and carefully opened it, revealing a stack of information.
"Hmm?" After seeing the content, he was shocked.
"The Valley of Thousands of Medicine?"
He was from Diannan. He had been in criminal investigation for more than 20 years. In the past 20 years, he dared not say that he had traveled to all places in Diannan, but he had been to most places. He had an impression of most places in Diannan. He even knew some remote villages. He had heard some secret stories, including the Valley of Thousands of Medicine.
He lit another cigarette and carefully looked through the information that he did not know who had sent him.
"Good at using poison?"
These four words were important. Weren't the sixteen people who died twice poisoned to death?!
