Chapter 163 Another Backer
After a long time, the old valley master withdrew his hand.
He frowned and sighed deeply, "You've been poisoned for too long. The poison has already penetrated into your internal organs."
"And to be honest, I haven't been able to find an antidote for this Soul Devouring Powder yet."
"A-Si is right. It's better not to develop overly poisonous medicines, otherwise it will definitely lead to disaster."
Whenever he thought of his favorite disciple who was expelled from the sect, he felt mixed emotions.
Without Wang Si, Yaowang Valley could no longer find a suitable person to inherit its legacy.
Shen Wan’s heart couldn’t help but tighten slightly when she heard this.
"It doesn't matter." She quickly recovered and said with a smile, "Anyway, I've suppressed the poison, so I'll be fine for now."
Seeing her good attitude, the old valley master was quite surprised: "Aren't you afraid of death?"
"Of course I'm scared!" Shen Wan shrugged and smiled, "So what if it's scary?"
“Instead of living in constant anxiety, it is better to face each day with peace of mind.”
Seeing this ugly girl so open-minded at such a young age, the old valley master's eyes flashed with admiration: "Your personality is really similar to Wang Si's."
"But how did you recognize Fang Huasha? Aruo doesn't understand this."
Shen Wan did not hide it anymore and took out the package of gold needles from the space.
When the old valley master saw the golden needle, he was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time.
"Who are you to Junior Brother Chen?" He asked hastily, his eyes red. "Where is he?"
The old valley master and the old medical officer were from the same school and had a very good relationship.
Since he was the son of the previous valley master, the old medical official should have inherited the position of valley master.
But for a woman, he left Yaowang Valley and never came back.
The former Valley Master was furious and ordered all disciples of Yaowang Valley not to marry outsiders.
It was precisely because of this that the old valley master expelled Wang Si from the sect.
"He and I have some connection." Shen Wan answered truthfully, "He is currently working as a medical clerk in a small county town. He lives a good life, but he doesn't want to be disturbed."
"He couldn't have not told you that as long as you have this golden needle, everyone in Yaowang Valley will agree to one of your conditions, right?" the old valley master asked nervously.
Shen Wan nodded: "Indeed I did."
"Then why didn't you take it out earlier?" The old valley master raised his two snow-white eyebrows, and his eyes were full of anger.
If he had known that it was Junior Brother Chen's friend, he would never have used Fanghuasha.
Shen Wan smiled sweetly: "Do you know how fierce you are?"
"If I had taken out the golden needle earlier, what if you mistakenly thought I stole it?"
The old valley master rolled his eyes.
steal?
There are probably not many people in this world who can steal the golden needle from Junior Brother Chen.
"Tsk, who do you take me for?" He sneered, his face showing displeasure. "Don't worry, even if it costs me my life, I will research the antidote."
As he spoke, he took out a bottle of medicine from his arms: "This is the detoxification pill."
"As long as you take this medicine, you won't need to cover your face even if the miasma is severe."
"You're not too hot even though you're covered with a towel on a hot day!"
Shen Wan took it, unscrewed it, and saw that it was filled with a bottle of small black pills.
"Aren't you afraid that I will develop a counterfeit medicine based on the medicine?" She sniffed it and guessed the approximate ingredients of the pill.
"As long as you have the ability." The old valley master smiled contemptuously, "If you can develop it, I will definitely not pursue it."
If the secret recipe of Yaowang Valley could be studied so easily, then he would have no need to stay in the world.
"Thank you very much!" Shen Wan was delighted.
The instruments in the space are not just for decoration. You just need to throw a pill in, and all the ingredients of the medicine will come out automatically, even the ratio will be clear.
Still a child after all!
Seeing her so excited, the old valley master thought secretly.
"Has that couple offended you?" he suddenly asked.
Shen Wan nodded and smiled slyly: “You want to help me vent my anger?”
"Do you have a good idea?" asked the old valley master.
Shen Wan thought about it, then leaned over and whispered in his ear.
After hearing this, the old valley master laughed in anger: "You girl, you are almost catching up with Lingshu."
"Okay, I'll do as you say!"
"Let's go back quickly. Lingshu is prone to causing trouble. I'm afraid she'll kill that damn prince with a handful of medicine."
After hearing this, Shen Wan quickly stood up.
Soon, the two returned to the dilapidated thatched hut.
Sure enough, Lingshu will never let the old valley master down.
At this time, she was pestering the third prince, using a broken abacus to calculate the losses from the burned house.
"Didn't I promise to rebuild it for you? Why are you still yelling here?" Chen Yan said unhappily, leaning against a big tree.
Lingshu curled his lips and sneered, "Aren't the ginseng, deer antlers, and ganoderma lucidum in our house money?"
"You made my master and I sleep in the open air, so you shouldn't give me some compensation?"
"Also, I was almost scared to death in the sea of fire. Should I buy some supplements to calm my nerves?"
The Third Prince's head was itchy, and he became even more upset after being disturbed by this girl's noise.
"Okay, take your time to calculate." He clenched his fists and said impatiently, "When you're done, just give me the number."
Although the gold and silver in the mansion were stolen, as a prince, this amount of money was not a problem for him.
Having said that, Lingshu did not hesitate to pick up his pen and began to write with great enthusiasm.
At this time, the old valley master and Shen Wan came back.
The Third Prince was truly distressed. Upon seeing the Old Valley Master return, he quickly straightened his clothes and stepped forward to offer a salute: "Old Valley Master, please allow me to have a look."
"And me!" Chen Yan heard this and desperately climbed forward, "I don't want to be bald!"
"I'm afraid this might be a bit troublesome." The old Valley Master frowned slightly and said deliberately, "You two are in a situation where you need the golden needles passed down from our Medicine King Valley ancestors, but I don't have them in my possession."
"Where is the golden needle?" The third prince asked reluctantly, suppressing his anger.
Shen Wan smiled: “Unfortunately, it’s in my hands.”
Upon hearing this, the couple's faces changed immediately.
"But this golden needle can only save one person at a time." The old valley master frowned and said deliberately, "This golden needle needs to be soaked in the medicine for a full ten years before it can exert its power."
"If you use it today, you'll have to wait ten years before you can use it again."
ten years?
There was no way Shen Yan could wait for ten years.
In ten years she will be twenty-seven years old. How will she get married then?
Besides, if I cure the Third Prince first, would he marry a woman like me with scars all over her head?
If a person does not behave himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth!
"Save me!" Chen Yan said without even thinking, "Wan'er, no matter what misunderstandings we had before, we are sisters who are as close as brothers!"
"But the Third Prince treats me better than you do!" Shen Wan deliberately sowed discord, and said thoughtfully, "When we were at the Taifu Mansion, he gave me a lot of gifts."
When Shen Yan heard this, she blurted out: "What's good about it?"
"If it was really that good, why would he have left you alone in the epidemic area in the east of the city?"
