"Master Chen, please prepare the detoxifying soup!"
Tang Yigong said anxiously.
Generally, food eaten into the stomach will begin to be absorbed after half an hour, but liquids are absorbed much faster. Some highly toxic substances will begin to take effect in less than three or two minutes after being consumed.
This detoxifying soup also requires preparation and boiling of medicine. Every minute is very precious and cannot be wasted.
Even the crowd watching didn't know what Chen Xiaobao meant. He had already drunk the poison, but he was still so confident. Wasn't this kid too confident?
Pei Jiuling glanced at Chen Xiaobao with a hint of sarcasm on his face.
"madness!"
He ignored Chen Xiaobao and kept working, quickly preparing and decocting the medicine, trying to prepare the detoxifying soup as quickly as possible.
Pei Jiuling's disciples looked at each other, not understanding what Chen Xiaobao meant.
If it were them, they would have jumped up to prepare the medicine.
How can you be so calm?
This kid is so calm, does he have some hidden card?
"Boy, you are too confident. In less than ten minutes, you will start to feel severe pain in your lungs. In twenty minutes, you will feel pain in your bones. In thirty minutes, you will vomit blood from your mouth and then you will be in excruciating pain. By that time, I want to see if you can still remain so calm!" Pei Jiuling boiled the detoxifying soup and had two minutes of free time. He turned around and stared at Chen Xiaobao with pride and said.
Although the poison he prepared would not take Chen Xiaobao's life, it would definitely make this kid regret coming into this world.
"Yeah?"
Chen Xiaobao smiled faintly, still with no intention of boiling the medicine. He just disinfected the silver needles casually, then took out nine silver needles and casually stabbed them into his chest and abdomen.
Pei Jiuling frowned, a look of confusion on his face. He didn't realize how Chen Xiaobao used the silver needles, and he was not sure what the silver needles would do.
"Master, the medicine you prepared was not too harsh. It's been more than ten minutes, why is this kid still not reacting?" A middle-aged man came up to Pei Jiuling and asked in a low voice.
"Bullshit, how is that possible!"
Pei Jiuling glared and scolded harshly, but he was a little shaken in his heart. Could it be that there was something wrong with the medicinal materials in the medicine cabinet and that the quality was poor?
In order to make money, the medicinal materials they bought into Zhen Xinglinju were only so-so and the quality was not particularly good.
Could it be that this kid was so lucky that he happened to come across some toxic and expired medicinal herbs?
"Go and have a taste!"
Pei Jiuling had a grim face and began to feel uncomfortable in his stomach. It was obvious that the medicine prescribed by Chen Xiaobao had begun to take effect. Fortunately, he could still endure it for now.
"Yes, Master!"
The middle-aged man secretly regretted it. If he had known, he would have kept his mouth shut. However, he did not dare to go against Pei Jiuling's wishes. He could only reluctantly scoop a spoonful of the poison prepared by Pei Jiuling and taste it.
"Master, it seems, it seems that everything is fine!" The middle-aged man murmured after drinking it.
But less than ten minutes later, he suddenly screamed, holding his stomach and rolling on the ground screaming.
The people around were terrified.
This poison is quite vicious.
"Idiot, hurry up and wash his stomach!"
Pei Jiuling stomped his feet and didn't bother to take care of his apprentice, because he also felt his stomach churning and he was in waves of severe pain.
He made some arrangements and found that the detoxifying medicine was almost cooked. He quickly scooped up some and blew it cool. At this time, he was already suffering from an unbearable stomachache.
Fortunately, the detoxifying medicine is now drinkable.
"Boy, my detoxification medicine is ready. It's too late for you to prepare more medicine now. You are bound to lose this round!" Pei Jiuling took a deep breath, his hands trembling, his face turned pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He picked up the bowl with difficulty, endured the heat, and hurriedly drank the detoxification medicine.
“Bang!”
Just after he finished drinking, his hands went limp, the bowl fell to the ground and shattered, and he fell down.
“Master!”
Several disciples were shocked and hurriedly helped him sit down and let him rest.
But after waiting for ten minutes, Pei Jiuling not only did not get better, but was sweating all over, his face was as pale as paper, and even his lips turned extremely black.
"Master, Master, are you okay?"
A group of disciples were running around in panic, not knowing what to do.
"Impossible, why didn't my detoxification soup work?"
Pei Jiuling's lips trembled, with a look of disbelief on his face.
He felt that the toxins in his body were still taking effect and there was no sign of improvement.
How is this possible? It's just a little bit of thunder god vine, how can it not cure the problem?
At this time, he saw Chen Xiaobao stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked to Pei Jiuling, "Pei Jiuling, do you admit defeat in this round?"
"I don't accept it. My detoxifying medicine hasn't taken effect yet. It will work soon!" Pei Jiuling's eyes were red, and he screamed with gritted teeth, "It's just a little Tripterygium wilfordii. I can cure it!"
"So your medical skills are just so-so!" Chen Xiaobao shook his head. "Under normal circumstances, you can indeed cure the thunder god vine poison, but the thunder god vine I used is just a trick. What really works are croton, clove, and patchouli. Clove and patchouli both have certain detoxification effects, but the combination of the two can stimulate the medicinal properties of croton!"
"Once the medicinal properties of croton take effect, your stomach and intestines will become weak. At this time, the toxicity of Tripterygium wilfordii and earthworm skin will become ten times more toxic!"
"You only saw the Tripterygium wilfordii, but didn't see the cloves, Patchouli, Croton, and Earth Dragon Bark. This will add fuel to the fire and make the toxicity of the Tripterygium wilfordii irresistible!"
"Chinese medicine talks about the mutual assistance between the ruler and the minister, and the mutual promotion and restraint. Your medical skills are not up to par yet!"
Pei Jiuling's face changed. It turned out to be like this. He was only staring at the thunder god vine, but did not realize that the thunder god vine was a knife. He only noticed the knife, but did not notice that Chen Xiaobao had used several other medicinal herbs to burn the knife red.
Pei Jiuling has now determined that the detoxifying medicine he prepared is no longer sufficient to detoxify.
Even if you want to get another one, it's too late.
But how could he lose?
If we lose this round, Zhen Xinglinju will have to give up.
"I never thought you had such a trick. I've been hunting geese all day, and today I was blinded by a goose. But how could you not be poisoned?"
Pei Jiuling gritted his teeth, unwilling to accept failure.
The poison he used was quite potent. His disciple knew it all. That disciple only drank a small sip, while Chen Xiaobao drank a whole bowl.
Pei Jiuling didn't believe that Chen Xiaobao could withstand the poison he prepared.
If Chen Xiaobao can't withstand the poison he prepared, then this round will at most be a draw and he hasn't lost yet.
"Because I sealed your poison, the poison you prepared was not absorbed by my body at all!" Chen Xiaobao smiled faintly and said calmly.
Tang Yigong and Tang Kexin suddenly realized what was going on.
No wonder Chen Xiaobao was not in a hurry to detoxify.
"Impossible, you clearly drank the poison. Even if you have another acupuncture treatment, it's impossible to completely prevent your body from absorbing the poison!" Pei Jiuling had a ferocious look on his face and didn't believe what Chen Xiaobao said at all.
