Chapter 101: Seriously Injured (Part 2)
The reason why the old man Tie suddenly suppressed his fear and took action to rescue this seriously injured person was entirely because his identity was probably a Taoist priest. At the beginning, the strange man who rescued him when he was seriously injured was a Taoist priest. Although the Taoist priest did not ask for any return, he secretly vowed that if a Taoist priest was in danger, he would definitely rescue him. It was also because of this vow that a few years ago, during the movement to defeat feudal superstitions and monsters, two old Taoist priests who were sent from the county town were transferred to the mountain by him on the grounds of helping him guard the mountain and living in the wooden house he built. Even if the environment here is not very good, it is better than living in a cowshed and working as a coolie, and being criticized every day.
Although the people who rescued this time were very strange from all signs, and it is not certain whether they were Taoist priests or not, the old man still followed his oath and original intention and made the decision to rescue him. Even if he would bring him any harm in the future, he would do whatever he could.
I don’t know if it was because reciting Taizu’s quotations could really ward off evil spirits or because he was carrying this seriously injured person. In short, the old man on the road next time did not encounter any other abnormal things or obstacles. It was very smooth, so he couldn’t even feel it. It was not until he could see the roof of his wooden house that he realized that he had walked through the path of collecting herbs and had walked a very difficult mountain road, and was about to get home.
When he saw his home right in front of him, the old man's always tense nerves began to relax. His attention, who had been alert to the movements around him, also relieved a lot. At this time, he remembered how incredible the road he had walked before. Not to mention that the herbicide path needed to pass through some slightly sinister cliffs, there were many very difficult mountain roads just from the herbicide path to his residence. He still needed to be careful when walking alone, not to mention that he was carrying a car on his back.
He was an adult weighing 180 pounds. It would be more difficult to walk that mountain road as usual, but in fact it was the opposite. When he recalled the scene when he walked that mountain road, he could only describe it as walking like flying and walking on the flat ground. Even now he could not feel a trace of fatigue. This made him unable to help but recall the scene when the strange man carried him to avoid hunting. Although the locations and characters were different, the two felt very similar, and they were so incredible.
The old man Tie looked incredible. He raised his hand and clenched his fists. He felt that his strength had not increased at all. It was not an illusion that his body was not tired, and he had questions in his mind.
"Maybe the old Taoists will know what's going on?" Old Man Tie could guess that this might be related to the person seriously injured on his back, but with his knowledge and experience, he could not understand the details further. At this time, he saw the smoke rising from the chimney of the wooden house, and immediately put the hope of answering the questions in his heart on the two old Taoists in the wooden house.
In the mind of the old man Tie, the two old Taoist priests who were rescued from those red armbands were amazing figures. Although they could not compare with the strange people he met back then, the various knowledge and experience they had accumulated over the years were not much worse. In recent years, he has learned a lot from the two old Taoist priests, especially the knowledge of Taoist medicine and herbal medicine, which also made him one of the most respected people in the village, and his words were more effective than the village chief and the production team leader. So although he might find it strange and puzzling to understand, it may not be a problem in the eyes of those two.
Thinking of this, the old man's footsteps accelerated a little more. After passing through a bamboo forest, he came to the backyard of his cottage. Before he entered the door, he shouted loudly into the room: "Two brothers. Something happened! Come out quickly!"
As the old man's voice fell, a series of steps came from the wooden house, and the back door creaked wide. Two thin, white-haired and white-haired old men walked out of the house. Although these two old men were not as young as cranes, they were more young and energetic than ordinary old men, with a divine face. At first glance, they looked like successful morals.
When the two came out of the house, they both seemed very nervous and panicked, but after seeing that the old man Tie was safe and sound, they breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. It was obvious that they were wrongly thinking that something had happened to Tie. They knew very well that they could still live in the mountains and forests leisurely without having to go out of the mountains to suffer those lives. It was entirely because Tie was blocking the wind and rain for them in front of them. But once Tie was in trouble, not to mention whether they would be sent back to the bullpen as monsters and monsters. I am afraid that some people who are interested will spread rumors that Tie was harming Tie. They may not want to live by then. So after they lived in the mountains, they took good care of Tie, and even healed some secret injuries that Tie fell when they were young, and taught some fist and foot skills to prevent Tie from going into the mountains to hunt and unable to come back.
After confirming that the person who was involved in the accident was not Tie Old Man, the two of them all fell on the person on Tie Old Man's back. After seeing the injuries on the man, they couldn't help but take a breath.
"Brother Jianguo, hurry up and send him to the house and use the blanket you washed just two days ago to plaster under it, don't let him lie directly on the bed." The slightly fat and shorter old Taoist quickly came to his senses, and gave an order to the old man Tie, and then said to another old Taoist on the side: "Fellow Taoist Heting, take out a few Haoyuan Dan you refined a few days ago and take it for him to save his vitality first."
While opening the wooden house door completely and assisting the old man Tie to send the person into the house, the old Taoist shook his head, denied his companion's proposal, and said, "My Haoyuan Pill is too domineering. Now his body is too weak, and it may be counterproductive if taken. It is better to use your Xuyuan Pill, a fellow Taoist, when his vitality is sufficient, then use Haoyuan Pill, which will be better."
"Yeah! This is reasonable." The old Taoist thought for a moment when he heard this, nodded, then went into the room to go to his room, moved the wardrobe, took out a small box from a hole in the wall behind the cabinet, then took out an exquisite jade bottle from the box, stood up and walked towards an empty room in the front yard.
After entering the room, the old man Tie and another old man just spread the clean blanket and placed the injured person on the bed. The old man who had just entered the room immediately poured out nine particles of the same size as silkworm eggs from the bottle, walked to the bed, signaling the old man Tie to lift the man's neck to make it easier for him to swallow the medicine, and then prepared to send the nine particles into the other party's mouth.
"Wait! Fellow Taoist Qingjing, something is wrong." The old Taoist priest named Hetingzi suddenly called out to his companion, then reached out to his hand and put it on the injured person's pulse, and said, "The pulse is steady and powerful, the breath is deep and long, and the vitality is full and not dissipated. It doesn't look like he is injured, nor does it look like someone who is so burned."
Hearing He Tingzi's words, Old Man Tie and the old Taoist named Qingjingzi both noticed something unusual. Old Man Tie was fine. After all, he had encountered too many strange things before and became a little strange, but Qingjingzi was different. It was obviously the first time he had seen such a strange scene, with a look of confusion on his face.
As we all know, the injuries on the skin of people with large-scale burns are obvious obvious and obvious injuries. Some hidden injuries are far more dangerous and difficult to heal than those on the skin. Among these hidden injuries, the burns caused by the inhalation of burning air from the lungs are the most serious, and there is almost no possibility of survival.
When they saw this person with nearly 80% of the burns on their bodies at first sight, they thought that this person could not be saved and could only leave their lives to fate. Because such a large area of burns must have hurt the lungs. Even if the burns on the skin will not worsen due to other reasons, the burns in the lungs can make the injured unable to breathe normally, and in the end they can only die of suffocation, which can be said to be extremely painful. The reason why they changed Haoyuan Dan to Xuyuan San before was that after taking Haoyuan Dan, the injured would remain awake for a long time. Even if they died of suffocation, they would feel it clearly in the whole process. In that case, it would cause the greatest pain to the injured. Xuyuan San can also protect the injured, but it will make the injured sleep. Whether it is ultimately alive or dead, it will not cause the injured to suffer too much pain.
However, the injured person, who was undoubtedly dead in the eyes of the two old Taoists, showed a completely different state from his injuries. If the terrible burns on the outside skin were removed, the person in front of him could be said to be a perfect person, and from his breathing and pulse, he was even healthier and much stronger than ordinary people.
"What's going on?" Qing Jingzi muttered with confusion, putting Xuyuan San back into the medicine bottle, not because he was stingy with this little pill, but because the wounded in front of him are not suitable for taking Xuyuan San. Then, he asked the old man who seemed to have something to say, "Brother Jianguo, where did you carry this person back?"
After putting the person down, Old Man Tie couldn't help but want to tell what he saw and heard on the road, but when he saw two old Taoists saving people, he felt that it was not the time to say it, so he waited for things to calm down and then spoke again. Now Qing Jingzi asked, Old Man Tie could not bear it, and opened his mouth completely and said in detail all the things he had encountered before. Although he added some extra things to it, there were no mistakes in the details of the matter, and even the few iron pieces with Taoist talismans were described in detail.
When the two old masters heard this, they looked confused and looked at each other without understanding what they were doing. However, they were connecting what Old Man Tie said with the burned person in front of them, and they could vaguely feel that this matter was probably related to some legends he had heard in the past. So they all developed a strong curiosity and couldn't wait to say to Old Man Tie: "Go and take us to that place to see."
The old man pointed to the wounded on the bed and asked, "What should he do?"
"It's okay, he is in good condition! He is better than you and me." The two old Taoists responded vaguely, then walked out of the house with the iron man left and right, and walked towards the direction of the path of the herbs on the mountain with flying steps. (To be continued)
