It wasn't easy for me to survive in that barrel for three hours. When Li Renjie and I climbed out of the barrel, our bodies were completely red.
After we changed our clothes, we left the room one by one, no longer feeling the effects of the cold poison.
After leaving the house, the sun was scorching and he could not help but sweat profusely.
The two of us followed the path made of stone and soon saw Luo Wei, Xue Xiao Qi, and the rest of them. At this moment, they were gathered around a stone table in the courtyard.
Luo Weiping greeted us and told the two of us to hurry over to eat.
In the past few days, it has been tiring and tiring, and the cold poison has flared up, causing us to not have much appetite. Now, the cold poison has almost been cleared out from our bodies, making us feel extremely hungry. Li Rujie and I sat down together and picked up our chopsticks.
Unexpectedly, just as he picked up the chopsticks, Xue Xiao Qi said, "Hey …" "Wait, you don't eat these dishes, I've cooked a small stove for you. Since you're all weak, you need to take good care of your wounds. That's why I've prepared a meat meal for you all …"
I don't know what delicious food it is, but this little village is surrounded by mountains. Perhaps there is some kind of game on the mountain, and it must be extremely tasty. Back then, when Big Senior and I were cultivating in the monastery, we often wandered around the mountains and caught some wild chickens and rabbits.
At this time, Xue Xiao Qi pushed two casseroles over and placed them in front of Li You Jie and me. With a smile, he said, "These are your dishes. They provide great nourishment. Don't waste it. Drink all of the soup, and don't leave a single drop."
Why does that smile on Xue Xiaoqi look like a naughty smile?
The moment I opened the lid, the strong smell of Chinese medicine assaulted my nostrils. When I looked down, I could not help but inhale a breath of cold air, and saw a large amount of all kinds of poisonous insects floating in the pot. There were scorpions, scorpions, scorpions, centipedes …. There was also a colorful viper sitting in the bowl, which made me break out in a cold sweat …
Li Renjie was the same as me. When he saw the poisonous bug in the soup, he couldn't help but suck in a cold breath and say, "I say, this Little Brother Xue …" "This bowl is filled with poisonous bugs, what can I eat …"
Of course I can eat it, this is something I have prepared for you, you don't understand, this is using poison to fight poison, right now the cold poison in your body has already been dispelled, but your body still needs it. This soup of mine is called the All Aspect Nourishment Soup, and it is all made from ten different kinds of extremely poisonous ingredients. Xue Xiaoqi said with a mischievous smile.
Although facing these poisonous bugs' soup with Li Rujie, we couldn't quite bring ourselves to say it, but with Xue Xiaoqi on the side urging us to supervise, we had no choice but to go and drink this bowl of soup head on.
I thought it was some kind of mountain game, but it turned out to be this thing.
However, this could be said to be quite reasonable. These poisonous bugs could be considered to be wild game in the mountains. Their lives were in danger, so they had to drink it even if they didn't want to.
I gathered up my courage and fished out a cooked scorpion from the soup bowl. I placed it in my mouth, and almost without chewing, swallowed it whole.
However, once the poison entered his mouth, he felt that it wasn't that bad, so he was able to eat it.
After eating a few mouthfuls, he still felt that the venomous bug was quite tasty, especially that venomous snake in the bowl. It tasted quite good.
Like me, Li Renjie also ate with relish. In the end, the two of us truly ate up all of the poisonous bugs in the claypot. In the end, we even drank all of the soup.
After eating the medicinal food, Li Renjie and I were once again covered in hot sweat. A warm feeling reverberated in our dantian, making us feel very satisfied.
Afterwards, I tried to comprehend the surroundings and circulated the spirit energy in my dantian's aura sea. I felt that my condition had recovered to about seventy to eighty percent of what it used to be. This was already pretty good.
However, Xue Xiao Qi told us that our injuries don't count as a complete recovery right now, and we need to properly rest for a while. At the very least, we have to stay in the Xue Clan's medicine store for three days, and eat a meal of the so-called All Aspects Nourishment Soup every day.
This kid also told us that once we enter the Xue Clan's medicine store, we must recover fully before we can leave, or else we'll smash the Xue Clan's medicine store's signboard.
It was worthy of all the doctors in the world to study. If all the doctors were the same, this world would be perfect.
The next day, Luo Weiping said goodbye to me and Li Shujie. He told us that there were a lot of things waiting for them in the North China Region of the Special Task Force to deal with. As the secretary of the bureau chief, he was still rather busy, mainly because he saw that I, Li Shujie, had recovered and was ready to leave.
Before we left, Luo Weiping paid us the medical expenses and gave Xue Xiao Qi 30,000 yuan.
But Xue said his father wouldn't let him take the money, so after a long delay, Luo Weiping had no choice but to take the money back.
Luo Weiping is busy, and I can understand why. I have long heard that he is a rather big official in the special task force and is the superior of Li Rujie's immediate boss, so Luo Weiping coming out to find the Xue family to treat me was probably out of respect for my second martial uncle. The last time I met him, he was already very respectful to my second martial uncle.
In the next few days, Li Rujie and I stayed at the Xue Family's medicine store. Our health improved day by day. The main reason was because of the soup that Xue Xiaoqi had given us.
For the past few days, we haven't seen Xue Xiaoqi's father, the weird old man called Xue Yassong.
It was unknown what this old man was busy with all day.
When I had nothing to do, Li Rujie and I would stroll around the village where the Xue family's medicine store was located. The people here were all simple and honest, and they were very easy to get along with.
Every day, Xue Xiaoqi would squat down in the medicine store and treat a group of people. Among them, there were many cultivators who came after their reputation, but all of them were cured of their illness.
On the second day at the Xue family medicine store, I suddenly remembered something. There was still a pair of brats in my Yin device that hadn't gone overboard.
