The villain has been playing badly for ten years

It was around noon when a hot wind blew by. Ning Xiusu fell asleep in the house. His whole body felt like charcoal and he suddenly had a high fever.

The medical officer came to check but couldn't find any illness. Hua Jianbai was so anxious that he was like an ant on a hot pan.

Fortunately, Ning Xiusu didn't sleep for too long. After about half an hour, the double images in front of his eyes came into focus and he finally saw a little more clearly.

The bamboo leaves rustled, and the mottled bamboo leaves could be seen through the thin paper of the window frame. The golden sunlight shone through the window frame, casting a layer of luster on the edge of the carved wooden couch.

Hua Jianbai paced back and forth outside the room until he heard a noise. Then he strode back into the room, just as Ning Xiusu sat up from the couch.

Although he looked a bit sick, he added to his coolness and noble air, like an ink painting.

Hua Jianbai was slightly stunned, his almond-shaped eyes were as clear as a mountain spring, and his emotions were flickering like ripples in the water.

Suddenly, tears welled up in her eyes, "Big villain, you scared me to death!"

"…I'm fine, aren't I?"

Ning Xiusu smiled at him faintly, his eyes very clear.

"How do you feel? Does the wound hurt?"

"I'll feel much better after a good sleep."

Ning Xiusu shook his head, feeling no discomfort at all, and even the wound didn't hurt.

"wait for me a while."

Hua Jianbai thought of something and ran out in a hurry. Not long after, he brought some porridge and side dishes.

"The doctor said you were overworked, but you can't eat too much greasy food."

When Ning Xiusu took it, he found that the gauze on his wrist was still wrapped tightly. Perhaps because he thought it was in the way, he pulled off the gauze and found that the wound had healed long ago without even a scar left.

Hua Jianbai's almond-shaped eyes concealed a look of disbelief: "Big villain, have you mutated too? Where are your wounds?"

"This question... is a bit complicated."

Ning Xiusu couldn't explain it, he just felt very hot all over. He drank the porridge, but it didn't quench his thirst.

Deep in the bamboo forest, the originally quaint courtyard of the building was badly damaged. The bluestone path in the courtyard was charred, and the sparse bamboo shadows on both sides cast patches of cool shade.

At this moment, the bamboo door of the building was slowly pushed open, and the originally quiet courtyard seemed to become bustling with activity in an instant.

I saw a group of officials standing at the door. They were carefully carrying a person who was lying down and slowly walking towards the corridor.

"Flower Guard!"

Luo Buzhi strode into the room, and when he saw Ning Xiusu, he said:

"Your Highness, we found Brother Pu east of the bamboo forest. He seems to have recovered."

Hua Jianbai was delighted when he heard this, and without dwelling on other questions, he quickly asked, "Where is he?"

"He's here, you...you'd better go and see for yourself."

Hearing Luo Buzhi's words, which seemed to be hesitant but wanting to say something, as if he was hiding something strange, Hua Jianbai hurried out.

Pu Boyu was carried into the yard by a group of officials. His body had recovered, but he was strangely motionless, with a dazed look on his face, his eyes staring straight at one place.

"Nephew, what's going on with you?"

Hua Jianbai rushed into the courtyard and saw this scene. He was immediately worried.

Perhaps he heard a familiar voice, Pu Boyu suddenly looked up and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

He opened his mouth, intending to speak, but his movements were so slow, as if he was about to drool, that he didn't utter a single word for a long time.

Ning Xiusu also walked over slowly at this time. He frowned slightly and felt his pulse, but he couldn't figure out anything.

Hua Jianbai's face was filled with anxiety, and he asked repeatedly, "Why did he become a fool? Big villain, come and see what's going on."

Ning Xiusu said, "It should be a problem with the Ten Directions Blood Drain. Unfortunately, I don't know much about Gu either."

Hua Jianbai was stunned for a moment, full of confusion: "What is Shifang Xuejie?"

“It’s an offering.”

"I was also infected with this Gu, but why is it not so serious for me?"

"Perhaps it's because of the mutation, Pu Boyu took a larger dose than you."

"Oh, what should I do then!"

Hanamibai was extremely anxious.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he grabbed an official in an indigo robe and asked:

"I don't know, has the old man with the big beard come back?"

Luo Buzhi immediately shook his head: "Guardian Hua, these two people haven't appeared yet."

"No, no, I have to go look for it..."

Hua Jianbai said to Ning Xiusu, "Big villain, nephew, please keep an eye on him for me. I'll go find Old Man Chen and Miemie. They've both been to the temple before, so they must know something."

Ning Xiusu asked, "Do you know where they are?"

"Old Man Chen loves drinking. If he drives away the Green and Yellow Ghosts, he will definitely go to the restaurant."

Before Ning Xiusu could say anything, Hua Jianbai stormed out of the room.

……

The wind is warm and the clouds are clear, and the sky is clearing up after the rain.

The willow trees on both sides of the street were clean and the bluestone road was still a little muddy, with the fragrance of grass and trees.

The snow-blue robe sparkled in the sunlight. Hua Jianbai walked through the willow trees. After a moment, he saw the sign of the Tianxiaxiangzidilai wine. After being washed by the drizzle, it showed a layer of wet light.

People were coming and going on the street, shouting non-stop, and carriages were rolling over puddles on the muddy road.

Hanamiba walked into the restaurant, grabbed a waiter, and asked, "Has that old man with a big beard and a green shirt been here today?"

After all, Uncle Chen had been in this restaurant for a long time, and the waiter knew him, but he shook his head at this time.

Hua Jianbai grabbed the shopkeeper beside him and continued to gesture: "Where is that little girl following the old man, the one in green clothes?"

The shopkeeper was a Persian. He only knew that this man had stayed at the inn with those high-ranking officials. He said flatteringly, "Sir, those two haven't been here for a long time."

It's strange. I thought Miemie and Old Man Chen were very powerful and there shouldn't be any problem. But why didn't they come to the restaurant? Where did they go?

And what about Pu Boyu's current situation? What should I do...

Hua Jianbai saw that he couldn't find the person, and became panicked, and was about to leave.

Just at this moment, he heard someone in the restaurant talking like a storyteller, talking about some strange people and strange things. Hua Jianbai was not in the mood to listen to gossip, but when the words "miraculous doctor and divine hands" came into his ears, he suddenly stopped.

Hua Jianbai glanced over there and saw someone gossiping in the golden gauze curtains on the upper floor:

"No one knows that there is a miraculous doctor in Nanzhao. His name seems to be Lord Snake Immortal. He is a very powerful person."

"Of course not! They say she's well-versed in history and the present, and knows everything from astronomy to geography, and can cure all the world's ills."

"Is this true? You're not trying to trick us, are you?"

"Of course it's true. You forgot about Li Gouzi's second sister-in-law. Her child was sick with a serious illness some time ago. When he went crazy, he would bite people. When he was not crazy, he would just lie there motionless, like a fool. We searched for famous doctors everywhere, and finally found the Snake Fairy."

"and after?"

"Hey, later on, of course everything got better. His second sister-in-law was selling tofu on East Street. She was so pretty..."

As these people talked, their focus shifted. Hanamiba took two steps forward and asked without caring about what they were talking about.

"My dear fellows, where is the Snake Immortal you are talking about?"

"Hey, are you looking for the snake fairy?"

Hua Jianbai nodded. These people were dressed in flashy clothes and had unruly looks. They were clearly gangsters.

"Hey, hey, hey... Let's go to the end of this street, next to the blacksmith shop."

Hua Jianbai didn't know how much truth these people were saying. He was desperate and had no idea what to do now...

Since Chen Jiu and Miemie couldn't find it, they might as well try their luck. What if there really is a miraculous doctor?
