Ichiki Yellow Pear

Chapter 205: A Pineapple Tree

Qin Mu sorted out the herbs, prepared the medicine, and used the medicine to treat Master Ma's arm and the lame man's leg. He also went to the treasury of the Imperial Academy to buy some Southern Xinjiang Gu powder.

This Gu powder is called Zhuyan Gu, and it is an extremely tiny insect. If a single insect is placed in front of you, it cannot be seen with the naked eye and can only be seen with the third eye.

After the insects are dried, they turn into powder and will come back to life when they come into contact with blood.

He asked for a little blood from Master Ma and the cripple, and used the blood to dissolve the Gu powder. The Zhuyan Gu was nourished by the blood, and the extremely tiny bugs came to life, making the two cups of blood seem to have life.

Master Ma and the Lame Man looked into the teacups. They both had extraordinary eyesight and could naturally see the worms in the blood. They saw tens of thousands of poisonous worms in the two teacups, densely packed, which was very scary.

The lame man smiled and said, "Mu'er, are you planning to use this kind of insect to treat our hands and legs? What kind of insect is this? Is it harmful?"

Among the people in the village, if we talk about the most ferocious person who can scare a little girl to tears, the butcher is second. The first one is the pharmacist who likes to grow flowers, plants and insects.

The pharmacist's face was scary, and the bugs were even scarier. The cripple was a habitual thief, and everyone's room in the village had been visited by him. Even Qin Mu's candied haws had been stolen by him several times, but he never touched anything in the pharmacist's room.

Qin Mu studied medicine with the pharmacist and was quite knowledgeable about these insects. When he saw the insects in these two teacups, the lame man couldn't help feeling uneasy, as if some unscrupulous people wanted to harm him.

"Don't worry, Grandpa Lame. Zhuyan Gu is a kind of Gu technique of the Wu Miao in Southern Xinjiang. It is not very harmful to the body."

Qin Mu injected the two cups of blood into the blood vessels of Master Ma's arm and the lame man's leg respectively, and the Vermillion Gu was planted in the arm and leg. He said, "The reason why this Gu is called Vermillion Gu is that women from some sects in Southern Xinjiang use this Gu to preserve their youth and look lifelike even after death."

"Lifelike after death..." The lame man shuddered, feeling that this kind of Red Face Gu was not a good thing.

Qin Mu placed his leg and Ma Ye's arm in the medicine cauldron, which was already filled with a pot of medicine soup, and said: "This kind of insect can eat the dead blood in the blood, the dead skin on the skin, the mucous membrane muscle stripes of damaged muscles, the broken bones in the bones, and the dead marrow fluid in the bone marrow. Therefore, people who take the Zhuyan Gu can still maintain their youthful appearance until the moment they die of old age. The pharmacist grandfather said that he had a few confidantes who kept this kind of Gu in their bodies, and they still looked sixteen or seventeen years old, and were very tight. The pharmacist grandfather said that he likes tight girls very much..."

The boy looked up and looked thoughtful: "What does tight girl mean?"

The lame man said, "You are still young, don't think about these messed up things. Can I use it?"

Qin Mu found a seed from the palace's spiritual medicine, lifted a brick in the main hall, revealing jade-like soil under the brick, and said, "Of course it can be used. But this kind of Gu has a disadvantage. If the Gu worm is hungry, it will eat healthy blood and flesh. Therefore, the person who takes the Gu worm needs to take blood every day to feed the Gu. And as time goes by, there will be more and more Zhuyan Gu in the body, and the blood that needs to be taken every day will also increase."

He opened the Taotie bag, took some water from Yulong Lake, poured it on the water, and said, "Grandpa Pharmacist said that in the Wumiao area, there are often some beautiful women who seduce young men. After the pleasure, the man is left with only a skin bag, becoming a playboy, and his essence and blood are sucked dry. It is these women who take all their blood to feed the Zhuyan Gu."

The cripple shuddered.

After Qin Mu watered the plants, he saw the soil bulge out and a tender sprout emerged from the soil, growing taller and taller at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The young man activated the Three Dan Power of Tyrant Body and kept moving around the sapling in the main room, performing the Creation Earth Element Power in the Dayu Tianmo Sutra. An unpredictable seal was made towards the sapling, and his palm and five twitching fingers bounced away as soon as they landed on the leaves of the sapling.

When the branches and leaves of the sapling were touched by his palms or fingers, they made tinkling sounds, like the sound of a piano, and a beautiful melody rang out in the main room.

Qin Mu's steps were disordered. He used the Creation of Earth to stimulate the growth of the small tree. When the small tree grew to more than one meter tall, it began to sprout and sprout tender green leaves.

Then buds grew out one after another, the flowers bloomed, and the tree was full of snow-white pear blossoms.

"The reputation of the Red Face Gu is not good. I just went to the Imperial Academy's treasury to buy this thing, and the Imperial Academy there asked me what it was for. The Imperial Academy said that some of the wives of the princes and ministers in the capital like this thing, and some of the imperial concubines in the palace also like it. So the Imperial Hospital improved the Gu worms so that these Red Face Gu cannot reproduce themselves."

Qin Mu's feet and hands did not stop, and his hand seals changed like Guanyin snapping her fingers. Every time she flicked her fingers, there was a dong sound, like a stone falling into a calm lake.

The pear blossoms on the tree have faded, and the tree is now full of green pears, which are very small, only the size of a finger.

But as his seal techniques changed, the green pear slowly grew bigger.

"Doctor You also made a deworming pill that can kill the Zhu Yan Gu. When the Zhu Yan Gu threatens your body, you can take the deworming pill to kill the Zhu Yan Gu and expel it from your body."

Qin Mu transformed his Creation Technique and continued to ripen the green pears. The pears on the tree had grown to the size of fists. He said, "Just now, I asked the Imperial College of the Treasury to fetch an insect-killing pill. After taking a look, I found that this insect-killing pill only uses ordinary medicinal materials, but it is sold at a sky-high price. Imperial Master Yankang's monthly salary is not enough to buy one. The Imperial College said that Doctor You became a wealthy doctor among imperial doctors by relying on this kind of elixir. He is extremely rich!"

The lame man's eyes lit up: "Doctor You? A wealthy man?"

The pears on the pear tree have turned yellow and are giving off a fruity scent.

Qin Mu picked a few and threw them to Master Ma and the cripple. The two old men each tasted a bite and were filled with fragrance. They couldn't help but exclaim in praise.

"What kind of magic does the little doctor use to transform these pears?" asked Master Ma.

Qin Mu blushed and said, "Grandpa Ma, don't make fun of me. This is the Creation Earth Element Power from the Great Yu Tian Mo Sutra that my mother-in-law passed on to me."

"The Creation of Earthly Elements?"

Master Ma and the cripple looked at each other, and the cripple murmured, "I have seen Granny Si perform the Creation Earth Element Technique. Granny Si used this technique to cultivate the Yang God. At noon, her five hearts were facing upwards, collecting the sun's essence. The sky was filled with clouds of fire rolling over. It was very scary. It was obviously the top technique in the magic world. Granny Si used this technique to burn many people to death. It doesn't seem to be the way you use it..."

Qin Mu was stunned: "Did I do it wrong?"

Master Ma said, "You didn't make a mistake. You made it very pure. I think Old Lady Si took a different approach. Yang Shen nourishes all things, and this is how it should be used."

Qin Mu picked a few more pineapples, broke them in half, put them into the medicine soup, and said, "I use the Vermillion Gu to remove the necrotic parts of your arms and legs. After that, the Vermillion Gu will be forced out of your body with the medicine, and the Gu will not be able to hurt your limbs. This pineapple is also a medicine, it is a medicine enhancer, stimulating the efficacy of other medicines. But if you eat it alone, it tastes good, and it has no medicinal properties."

His attainments in medicine are even better than those of Doctor You. Doctor You used an insect-killing pill to poison the Zhu Yan Gu to death. After the Zhu Yan Gu dies, it will remain in the body of the person who used it and will be slowly excreted.

He used medicine to make these poisonous insects swim out of the body on their own, without leaving any behind.

The medicine he prepared also contained blood-activating ingredients that could stimulate the activity of Master Ma's arms and the lame man's legs and revive their vitality. After they had been properly treated, he could then reattach their limbs.

Qin Mu picked the other pears from the tree, filling a basket with yellow pears, then pulled up the pear tree by its roots and placed it in the yard.

Qin Mu called Hu Ling'er and Long Qilin again and shared the pears with them. Hu Ling'er tasted one and praised it highly. Long Qilin also ate a lot. Although it was not the Red Fire Spirit Pill, the Dragon Qilin ate it with relish.

"This guy should lose weight."

Qin Mu stared at the dragon unicorn and thought to himself, "If he continues to eat like this, I doubt if he can still fly on the fire cloud."

The lame man couldn't sit still, and after staying at Qin Mu's place for half a day, he clamored to go out for a walk. Master Ma was worried that he would meet Master Yankang, so he went out with him immediately.

The lame man has always respected Master Ma the most. He respects and fears him and cannot refuse. So the two of them ran out again. Qin Mu was not worried about their safety.

Master Yankang was also seriously injured. If he met a cripple, he might not be the one who suffered.

Moreover, Master Ma is the calmest person in the village. With Master Ma around, the lame man will not do anything rash.

After a few days, the scholars of Taixue Academy who went to the front line returned. During this training, they encountered the Hongshan Sect's summoning of demons, the Jiuyou Sect's returning souls, and the Corpse Immortal Sect's controlling corpses in Yongjiang, Lizhou and Lu County.

Later, they encountered a surprise attack by the rebels led by General Xiaoyi. In this battle, 30% of the scholars from the Imperial Academy who went there for training were killed. These 30% were the elites among the elites, so it was a heavy loss.

The scholars from the Imperial Academy who went there for training were almost wiped out in the darkness. Fortunately, the follow-up army of Yankang State, led by Yankang State Master, pushed forward the Yongjiang River. General Yu Yuan Chuyun gathered the strength of all the generals, killed the summoned demon god, and pushed it to the gate of the underworld in the river.

Yu Yuanchuyu, Shaoyin of Lizhou Prefecture, led his troops across the river to stop General Xiaoyi, thus stopping General Xiaoyi's momentum. The two armies started a bloody battle on the river. Yu Yuanchuyu and Yu Yuanchuyun used their swords together, and the sun set over the river. At that time, a sword sun in the middle of the river was half-sunk in the river. Countless sword lights burst out from the setting sun in the middle of the river, killing countless rebels. Many ships fell from the sky, and corpses rained down.

General Xiaoyi had no choice but to retreat and escape.

The chaos in Lizhou was finally quelled after Yu Yuan Chuyu and Yu Yuan Chuyun's armies crossed the river.

Later, when they took inventory of the scholars in the Imperial College, they found that they had suffered heavy casualties. Even several people from the Imperial College died in the battle with the demon while trying to save the students.

Afterwards, many scholars followed the Imperial College across the river to quell the rebellion. Only when the Imperial Master returned to the court did these scholars end their training and return to the Imperial College. Therefore, they returned a few days later than Qin Mu and others.

Many scholars of the Imperial Academy were killed and Gu Li Nuan was to blame, so he wrote a letter to the emperor to apologize. The emperor fined him half a year's salary and demoted him to the fourth rank, but he still managed the Imperial Academy and did not dismiss him from his post.

Gu Li Nuan ordered people to compile the list of casualties, hoping to see Qin Mu's name on the list, but unfortunately not.

After he sorted out the list of the fallen scholars, he immediately went to the palace to meet the emperor. He met a eunuch who was going to the Imperial Academy to announce the imperial edict. Gu Li Nuan hurriedly asked, "Eunuch, are you going to the Imperial Academy to announce the imperial edict?"

The eunuch smiled and said, "Congratulations, Master Gu. Your Imperial Academy's Doctor of the Imperial Academy has made great contributions in suppressing the rebellion and saving the scholars under his command. His Majesty has asked me to take the imperial decree and promote him!"

Gu Li Nuan's face froze, and he said angrily: "This is my job, why should I reward him?"

"Your Majesty said that some people can't even do their job properly, so this time we plan to kill a few chickens to scare the monkeys."
