The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 20 Niu Han's Death
"It's a shame I can't be there in person, but since the Yinshui Centipede has retreated, it should be done."

Su Yan and Zheng Penggang were just sending Xie Yuzhu to Shanjifang Market when they suddenly felt something in their hearts and realized that it was the Yinshui Centipede who had taken action.

When he and the Yinshui Centipede were refining themselves, he had an unusual sense of connection and could know the state of the Yinshui Centipede.

However, this kind of sensation did not possess the Yinshui Centipede, otherwise there would be no need for such a design to deal with Niu Han and his gang.

"Perhaps after the insect master's level is raised, there will be different changes."

The two men pushed Xie Yuzhu into the Shanjifang Market and headed straight to the east side of the Shanjifang Market.

The so-called Doctor Du is actually a small doctor in the mountains.

Baicaotang's main business is to refine various medicines, so its medical skills are naturally amazing.

However, Baicaotang's business is basically aimed at wealthy families, or at least well-off families.

Unless poor families are desperate, they generally cannot enter the gate of Baicaotang.

Moreover, in this Shanjifang Market, there are only shops that purchase medicinal materials, but no shops that sell medicine.

Therefore, when the mountain people in the surrounding area got sick, they would come to the market to look for Doctor Du, the mountain doctor.

"bang bang bang"

Perhaps he arrived too early, Zheng Peng just walked forward and knocked on the door.

"I'm coming."

After a long time, a sound was heard from the room. The door panel was removed from the inside and put aside. A skinny old man with a white beard leaned out.

"Why are you so anxious?"

He was not angry, but just frowned slightly and looked at Xie Yuzhu on the cart.

He urged, "Help him in, what happened?"

Su Yan helped Xie Yuzhu up and walked him and Zheng Penggang into the door.

Zheng Penggang said, "He was kicked hard by those thugs who came to cause trouble. Look at him. Brother Zhu's family is relying on him alone."

"Alas," Mr. Du sighed, "Let me take a look."

He lifted up Xie Yuzhu's clothes, and the large purple footprints were exposed in front of him.

"Is it so swollen?"

He frowned and pressed it, causing Xie Yuzhu to grimace in pain.

"No bones broken?"

Suddenly, Doctor Du smelled a faint fragrance on his hand: "Redwood flower?"

Doctor Du looked at Xie Yuzhu and laughed in anger: "You are a mountain herder and you are using safflower indiscriminately. No wonder the blood clots are so dissipated. It would be strange if it doesn't hurt."

Xie Yuzhu showed an embarrassed look: "Isn't this safflower used to reduce swelling and relieve pain?"

"You have to use it correctly, in small amounts, multiple times, and wipe it with warm water in between. You can't use it all at once."

Doctor Du didn't know whether this man was truly stupid or just pretending to be: "I'll help you clean it up, and then use medicinal wine and my hands to dissolve it. You can go home and rest for a day or two.

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Du."

Xie Yuzhu was not seriously injured, so Doctor Du immediately used medicine to clean him up, and then used massage techniques to dissolve the medicine and disperse the blood clots.

It took neither long nor short. Su Yan found some time to buy a few pancakes and shared them with Zheng Penggang.

After about half an hour, Xie Yuzhu's treatment was completed.

"Get away! Get away!"

"Make way!"

Just as they came out, there was suddenly a commotion on the street. Six or seven people were carrying a stretcher with a person lying paralyzed on it. They pushed through the crowd and headed straight for Doctor Du's clinic.

They arrived in a hurry, so Zheng Penggang and Xie Yuzhu hurriedly moved out of the way and pushed the cart away.

The men put down their racks, and Doctor Du rushed forward. "Doctor Du, save my brother! He's been bitten by a poisonous insect from the mountain!"

Niu Dang cried for his parents, but Su Yan raised his eyebrows and smiled in his heart.

What a coincidence, wasn’t the person in the bamboo sedan exactly Niu Han?
At this time, Niu Han's right hand was completely broken and tied with a cloth. One of his eyes was bloody and had marks of burns.

He was barely breathing and his face was ashen.

'That's pretty decisive.'

The broken hand was definitely not caused by the Yinshui centipede. The cut was neat. I'm afraid he was poisoned and his hand was cut off by his younger brothers as first aid.

Su Yan only took one look and knew there was no hope.

As expected, after Doctor Du took action, his face darkened and he shook his head, "It's no use. The poison has taken over his heart. No one can save him."

"Should!"

Zheng Penggang watched from a distance and cursed softly, "God will punish evildoers. This Niu Han deserves to die. Brother Zhu's revenge has been avenged."

A few of them were standing in the crowd and their voices were low, so Zheng Penggang was not worried that Niu and the others would hear them.

But at this moment, Xie Yuzhu had no mind to answer. He was extremely horrified and secretly glanced at Su Yan's expression.

But seeing that he looked normal, I didn't know if he did it.

What is this means?
"Brother Zhu?"

Zheng Peng just realized something was wrong when Xie Yuzhu quickly came to his senses: "Hey, don't join in the fun."

Su Yan smiled and said, "Uncle Gang, let's go back to the village."

Niu Han died, and there was not even enough time to send him back to Niuxin Village.

The whole Shanjifang market was buzzing with news, as there were many poor families in the surrounding area who owed Niu Han money.

This death was such a relief to everyone that even the teahouse was filled with joyful discussions.

Such a big thing happened in Niuxin Village, and the constables and yamen runners stationed in Shanjifang City naturally could not sit idly by.

The interrogation began immediately, and Niu Dang and others were taken away for questioning first.

Although Niu Dang and his companions were present last night, they were not in the inner room after all, so they had no idea what the Yinshui centipede looked like when it attacked.

I just heard Niu Han shout that it was an alien insect, so I naturally thought so too.

If I tell the constable, of course it was some strange insects that came down from the mountains, killing people and drinking their blood, and injuring several of our brothers.

He told everything in detail, and also gathered to prepare for debt collection and revenge the next day.

However, these words did not attract the attention of the constables and yamen runners at all, because they had seen Su Yan and Xie Yuzhu coming to the market a long time ago.

After a few rounds of discussion, the matter was concluded to be a strange insect that had somehow come down from the mountain and harmed people.

No one doubted that it was Su Yan who did it.

Only Xie Yuzhu guessed some of the situation, but he would never tell anyone even if he died.

"Grow up now, Brother Yamato's revenge has finally been avenged."

"Boss, what are you talking about?"

At Xie Yuzhu's house, he looked at the one or two taels of silver and food left by Su Yan, muttering to himself.

Li Lian couldn't hear clearly, so Xie Yuzhu joked, "Nothing much. Ah Yan has grown up. Brother Dahe doesn't need to worry about him anymore. He's very capable."

He grinned, the dead man was Niu, and the capable one was his nephew, these were all good things.

Li Lian nodded. "Brother Yan is capable and kind. He's a good kid. I think he's the right age, so why not arrange a marriage for him and find a girl to support his family."

"Go away, don't worry about it. He will definitely be a top warrior in the future. No mountain girl can match him. Don't make decisions for him. A Yan has his own abilities."

Xie Yuzhu interrupted his wife and said, "Put the silver away. Let me rest for a few days, then go back into the mountains with Guo Peng and the others. After paying the summer tax and the mountain fee, we can save some money and teach Abao a skill. We can't keep going into the mountains like this. There's no way out."
