Chapter 758: Strange Things
People can get sick, and so can snakes, insects, and animals. In Bian Huo's medical theory, all visible and invisible things can get sick. He returned to Centipede Valley. At this time, the ninety-seven people of the Ziqiong Sect had built ninety-seven sick rooms outside the house, and each of them lay in bed, not daring to move.
Bian Huo captured the Seven Deadly Centipede. The Seven Deadly Centipede was so poisonous that only a magical item like the "Poison Bag" could catch it safely. After Bian Huo captured the Seven Deadly Centipede, he immediately began to study how to use the poison of the Seven Deadly Centipede to cure the ninety-seven people of the Ziqiong Sect.
He caught a centipede in his hand and looked it over from top to bottom. Bian Huo knew that the centipede had some kind of animal disease. Bian Huo's pathology included everything in the world, not just human medicine. He was afraid that the centipede's animal disease would affect its toxins, so he spent some time to see if he could cure the centipede's animal disease.
He found that the disease could not be cured, but the toxicity did not change much. At that time, Bian Huo also speculated that he was better at treating people than animals, and he was helpless with animal diseases. So he thought that since the toxicity did not change much, he would use the Seven Deadly Poisons to cure the people of Ziqiong Sect first.
So he took out the poison sac from the abdomen of the Seven Deadly Centipedes, put it in a mortar and grind it, added various strange medicines, made it into a black ointment, and smeared it on the bodies of the people of Ziqiong Sect one by one.
Because Ziqiong sent too many people, the ointment had been used up, and only forty-two people were used. The remaining fifty-five people were still unable to apply the ointment. Bian Huo went up the mountain to collect centipedes again.
This time, something strange happened. Just like last time, he easily caught more than ten rare centipedes and put them all into his bag. But Bian Huo did not leave. Instead, he felt very strange. He didn't know why the seven centipedes all got sick. Once he got curious about things related to "disease", he would be intrigued by them even if ten cows were unable to stop him.
So Bian Huo went deep into the valley. He was very familiar with everything in the Centipede Valley and knew where the nest of the Seven Deadly Centipedes was. However, he did not know Taoism. Although his cultivation was high, he was not good at fighting. Even for him, there was a great risk there, so he did not dare to approach easily.
When he reached the nest, Bian Huo suddenly felt a chill. The soil along the road was frosted and icy. He took a closer look and found a figure sitting cross-legged in the cave of the Seven Deadly Centipedes.
The icy air was coming from this person. Bian Huo didn't like to go out, and didn't know who this person was at first. But seeing the cold air all around, he kept scolding him. This centipede was afraid of the cold, so it was reasonable for it to get sick.
The man ignored him and continued to radiate coldness. Bian Huo scolded him again and introduced himself, and the man finally opened his eyes. It turned out that although Bian Huo rarely went out, his reputation in the outside world was very widespread, and this man was also looking for a doctor.
I had just arrived, and the terrain of Centipede Valley was complicated, so I couldn't find the location of the disaster. By accident, I saw a cave, so I sat down in it to rest for a few days.
When Bian Huo heard that this person was also sick, he looked at him for the first time. He was tall, had profound cultivation, and exuded coldness. He did not seem to be sick. He looked at him for the second time, and still did not think he was sick. He thought that this person was deliberately looking for trouble, and was afraid that he wanted to catch the strange centipede in the centipede valley. How could he believe it?
But seeing that the man was eager to seek medical treatment, he was afraid that if he was left alone, he would be killed by many exotic plants and animals, so he pretended to agree and took the man home.
After being introduced by someone from the Ziqiong Sect, Bian Huo learned that this person had a great reputation, was honored with the title "Reverend Fengxue", and came from the Xue Sect in the far north, where he was the elder.
Bian Huo paused, his eyes darkened, and he continued. The strange things started from this moment, and it was the strangest thing in Bian Huo's life. The Venerable Fengxue had no symptoms, but he insisted that he was sick.
Bian Huo never had any doubt about his medical skills. He could tell at a glance that the patient was not sick and that was absolutely impossible to fake.
But seeing that Venerable Fengxue was resolute, in terms of cultivation alone, Bian Huo was much better than Venerable Fengxue at that time. But in terms of fighting ability, Venerable Fengxue, as an elder of the Snow Sect, would not be inferior. Bian Huo could only go along with him and appease him.
The most urgent task was to cure the people of Ziqiong Sect first. Bian Huo carefully prepared the medicine for a month, and all 97 people of Ziqiong Sect with strange diseases were cured.
Now, Venerable Fengxue's commission was irresistible, and Bian Huo could only help Venerable Fengxue to feel his pulse and diagnose him. After a thorough investigation, Venerable Fengxue's blood circulation was smooth and his spirits were full, and he did not look sick at all. Even his Taoism was becoming more and more profound, and his great Dao was advancing bravely and diligently. It was clear that his future was limitless, and there was a great possibility that he could make further progress in his cultivation.
After feeling the pulse, Bian Huo confirmed that Venerable Fengxue was not ill, but he did not say it directly. He only said some mysterious medical theories in an euphemistic way, hoping to make Venerable Fengxue leave. Unexpectedly, Venerable Fengxue insisted that he was ill, and the illness was serious.
After this happened repeatedly, even Bian Huo became suspicious and thought, "He is healthy physically, could it be a mental illness? I am an expert in medicine and there is no possibility that I am wrong, but what if it is an exception?" With doubts, he carefully investigated the symptoms for Venerable Fengxue.
Bian Huo suspected that it was a heart disease, and he prescribed the right medicine several times, but the situation did not improve. He tried various methods, but Venerable Fengxue had no symptoms, but he developed many more symptoms.
Bian Huo had exhausted all his means and was even more certain that Venerable Fengxue was not ill. He immediately became angry and felt that this Venerable was just making fun of him and was deliberately causing trouble. So he ordered Venerable Fengxue to get out of Centipede Valley.
Venerable Fengxue insisted that he was ill, and cursed Bian Huo for being a quack doctor who did not live up to his reputation. Bian Huo was very angry, but he suppressed it.
Wang Ruyi asked, "Then what?" Hearing this, he became very interested.
Bian Huo sighed. After Venerable Fengxue left, something even more bizarre happened. The ninety-seven disciples of the Ziqiong Sect who had recovered from their serious illnesses had not left and had been living in the sickhouse.
Bian Huo was concentrating on medicine and didn't pay attention to it. One day, when he returned from collecting herbs in the mountains, he saw Ziqiong's people still staying. He asked one of them, "Your illness has been cured, why haven't you left yet?"
The Ziqiong faction said, "The divine doctor Bian is joking." They all refused to believe that their illnesses had been cured and were still convinced that they were sick. Bian Huo immediately felt their pulses and examined them, confirming that the illnesses had indeed completely disappeared. Even if they used medical explanations, the Ziqiong faction's people would not believe it.
Bian Huo was confused by these strange things happening one after another and could not tell the directions.
