Chapter 317 3 Xiu agrees to cure the poison of Hua Bite

It is said that Honghua and Zengsi took Yanyu to inquire in the south of Jingsong Kingdom all the way westward. It took more than ten days before they found Sanxiu Pharmacy in the southern border of Xiyue Kingdom.

When Mr. Sanxiu first saw Honghua's evil and poisonous aura, he didn't want to pay attention to her, but she took out a handwritten letter from his apprentice Si Yao, and heard the three of them unanimously praising his apprentice Si Yao's medical skills, Sanxiu was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He was naturally happy that his apprentice had won a good reputation outside and brought honor to him as a master. In addition, considering that Zeng Si and Xuan Yu were sensible, he agreed to keep them and treat Xuan Yu.

Before she knew it, Huanyu had been under the treatment of Mr. Sanxiu for two months. The strength of her hands and feet had begun to recover slowly. With Zeng Si's help, she could even walk a few steps in the house. After lying down for several months, Huanyu was satisfied with the results. At the same time, she couldn't help but secretly praise Miss Siyao's master for being a miracle doctor who could bring people back to health.

On this day, the son of Situ Ting, the magistrate of Mucheng County, suddenly caught a cold. In addition, he had been poisoned many years ago and had not yet fully recovered. Naturally, his illness became more serious, so he sent someone to invite Mr. Sanxiu early in the morning.

"Little furry boy!"

It was almost past the 9:00 p.m. and Honghua still didn't know that Sanxiu had gone out to see a patient. Just as she was about to go to the teahouse to look for him, she ran into Xiao Chenlin in the corridor and couldn't help but feel playful again.

"Madam, I've said it many times, my name is Chen Lin, not Little Kid." Chen Lin looked up at Hong Hua in front of him with a helpless look on his face and replied seriously.

After spending more than half a year in the medicine shop, with the careful care and teaching of Sanxiu and Xiuming, Chenlin's weak body gradually improved, and he became more confident, no longer as pale and thin as before. His face showed the cuteness of a four or five-year-old child, but his words and actions were as serious as an adult, so Honghua couldn't help but want to tease him every time she saw him.

"Who asked the old man to give you such an ugly and difficult name? It's really hard to remember. How about I give you another nice and easy to remember name?" Honghua smiled with pretended disgust, then squatted down and wanted to raise her hand to pinch Chenlin's cute little face, but he cautiously took two steps back to avoid it.

"Madam, please don't forget that the old man you mentioned is now helping your sister treat her illness." Chen Lin frowned, looked at Honghua seriously, and said in a serious voice.

"Wow, you are so good at talking at such a young age. Believe it or not, I can poison you and make you mute!" Seeing the mature and steady look of the little boy in front of her, Honghua became more interested and immediately took out the poisonous scorpion she raised and threatened him.

"This is Sanxiu Pharmacy. The lady is poisoned. The owner and the master have their own way to detoxify her." Upon seeing the poisonous scorpion in Honghua's hand, Chen Lin was so frightened that his face changed color and he took two steps back, but he still refused to give in.

"Hee, little brat, you don't understand this, do you? One bite from my poisonous scorpion will kill you instantly. No matter how powerful your old man is, he can't be as swift as the King of Hell, right?" Seeing Chen Lin frightened, Honghua became even more proud. She fiddled with the poisonous scorpion in her hand and smiled disapprovingly at the child in front of her.

Her charming and seductive smile seemed even more creepy to little Chenlin. When he was trying to step back in fear, a gentle hand suddenly appeared on his head, which instantly made Chenlin feel at ease.

"Madam, why do you have to embarrass a child?" Xiu Ming was still elegant and gentle. He first pulled Chen Lin behind him, then bowed properly to Hong Hua and said with a soft smile.

"Since Mr. Xiuming is here, I naturally won't take a little kid seriously." Seeing Xiuming, Honghua had already put away the poisonous scorpion in his hand, stood up and walked forward, smiling ambiguously in his eyes.

"Madam, are you here to see your master?" Facing Honghua's teasing, Xiuming smiled helplessly as usual and changed the subject.

"Of course I'm looking for your master, and you, but you ignore me." Honghua was disappointed. She gently pushed Xiuming's hand which was originally on his shoulder, and said angrily.

Unexpectedly, the Sanxiu Pharmacy is full of people who are stubborn and unresponsive. In the past two months, even Xiuming, a widower in his thirties, is indifferent to her charm, which makes the always confident Honghua very frustrated.

"If it weren't for your sister, I wouldn't bother to pay attention to you!" At the same time, Sanxiu stood behind Honghua with his hands behind his back and snorted coldly.

This shameless woman always teases her apprentice, and Sanxiu is naturally annoyed when she sees this. Although her apprentice Xiuming is still a widower at his age and does not want to marry, Sanxiu does not want him to be provoked by such a frivolous woman. If it were not for her sister's understanding and generous manner, Sanxiu Medicine Store would not keep such a woman.

"Don't worry, Mr. Sanxiu. I will leave tomorrow, and you won't have to get angry when you see me anymore." In front of Sanxiu, Honghua restrained himself and turned around with a smile.

"What do you want from me?" Hearing that she was leaving, Sanxiu was secretly happy, but still asked with a stern face.

"It's not convenient to talk here. Let's go to the tea room." Honghua stopped smiling and glanced at Xiuming and Chenlin before turning to Sanxiu and bowing seriously.

Honghua's seriousness has always been due to her sister, so Sanxiu said nothing more and took her to the tea room.

"Mr. Sanxiu, have you ever heard of the poison of flower bites?" Honghua asked straight to the point as soon as the two arrived at the teahouse.

"I've heard of it. It's said to be a deadly poison from the Western Regions. It can stay dormant in the human body for half a year without taking effect. As long as it doesn't take effect, it's silent and even a genius doctor may not be able to detect it. But once the poison takes effect, the victim's body will emit a strange fragrance and his limbs will feel like they're bitten by insects. It will be worse than death. No matter how strong a person's will is, he will bite his tongue to commit suicide after three days." Sanxiu frowned when he heard this, and after glancing at Honghua, he slowly answered.

"It seems that even Mr. Sanxiu couldn't discover the flower bite poison in Yanyu's body." Honghua smiled bitterly, and the light in his eyes dimmed.

"How did it get hit? Was it mixed with the original Huagong Pill?" Sanxiu had guessed it when the other party asked just now, so he was not too surprised when he got the evidence, but continued to ask.

"Mr. Sanxiu, please do your best to cure the poison of this flower bite." Honghua did not respond to Sanxiu's question, but handed a bulging bag of money to him and continued: "This is only part of the reward. If Mr. Sanxiu really cures the poison in my sister's body, Honghua will definitely pay double."

At the beginning, Youmei promised that as long as she obeyed Yingmen, he would give her some antidote every once in a while. Therefore, Honghua knew that she could not waste any more time and had to hurry back to southern Xinjiang to complete the task assigned by Youmei. After all, she could not put all her hopes on Sanxiu Pharmacy.

"Oh, Madam Honghua is so generous?" Sanxiu opened his purse and saw that it was full of gold beans. He couldn't help but smile with his eyes wide open.

"Yue Yu and Zeng Si will continue to stay at Sanxiu Pharmacy, but there are less than three months left before the onset of the flower bite poison. Mr. Sanxiu, please hurry up, my sister must not be in any danger."

"I didn't promise you to cure Hua Yao's poison. Take this bag of golden beans and find someone else." Sanxiu has always been soft-hearted. Hearing Hong Hua's commanding tone, he was naturally displeased. He immediately threw the purse in his hand back to the other party and said with a cold face.

"Mr. Sanxiu is a doctor who saves people and has a kind heart. Please save my sister!" But Honghua suddenly knelt down in front of Sanxiu and cried sadly.

Sanxiu was so scared that he almost jumped up, and he had to admit that this woman's ability to cry at any time really made him admire her. Sanxiu was most afraid of seeing people cry, especially women, so in order to stop the crying, he naturally agreed to Honghua's request.

But Honghua didn't know that even if he didn't agree to her, with Sanxiu's hard-mouthed but soft-hearted personality, he would not just watch Yanyu die.
