Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

Chapter 439: Like a Poisonous Insect

At 3:00 p.m., this shabby little courtyard once again welcomed the villagers. They were all representatives from their respective families, and they did not all flock here at once.

Wen Dajun had placed a table and benches in an open space in the yard in advance and asked Xu Yuan to sit down and listen to the villagers coming up to ask questions one by one.

Xuyuan had to return to Hsinchu Village at the beginning of the You hour, so these matters had to be resolved within two hours.

"If you want to know why you can't feel warm no matter how hard you try, just come over here and sit in a circle."

The body feeling cold is nothing more than a symptom of the middle stage. The early stage is like Wen Dajun, who has been infected but does not show any symptoms. The middle stage lasts for about half a month and is a symptom of madness. At this time, the person has become a little unconscious, and then his face gradually turns blue and purple, he begins to be bloodthirsty, and a foul odor begins to emanate from his body. The most unique situation should be the situation of rebirth after death, which is the most troublesome, because the corpse is completely occupied by the western beard worm.

Anyway, it seems a bit ridiculous to make a wish for this thing to be brought out from such a deep forest.

"Um... Master, we are already standing."

Wang Yujuan was still willing to believe her son and was the first one to stand in line. Seeing Xu Yuan in a daze, she reminded him tactfully.

Wu Linzhuo found a step and sat down, looking at his mother with an expectant look on his face.

"Dajun, light the fire." Xu Yuan ordered Wen Dajun who was waiting eagerly on the side.

"Okay, Master."

Wen Dajun followed the instructions given by Xu Yuan, lit the dry rattan stick that Xu Yuan had given him in advance and placed it in the middle.

"Come and sit outside." Xu Yuan looked at the villagers who were still watching curiously on the other side.

"We're fine, there's no need for that." A man was a little surprised and waved his hand.

"Don't talk nonsense. I won't do anything for no reason." Xu Yuan said concisely.

"Go, everyone go." Village chief Wang saw that Xuyuan didn't look like he was joking, and suddenly realized something. His face changed and he hurriedly called out.

After everyone sat down in a circle, they asked the children who had recovered from their symptoms to move away, cover their noses, take out talisman paper from their arms, and throw it into the burning mutant vines.

Green smoke floated out instantly and then entered the noses of every villager sitting on the ground.

With a few "bangs", a group of people fell to the ground. Xuyuan held his breath, grabbed a handful of yellow mud and threw it into the air, and threw the straw placed beside him into the fire.

After one stick of incense, the people lying on the ground slowly transformed themselves. Without exception, they all took off the thick clothes that wrapped them tightly. Everyone felt that they became much lighter, and they kowtowed to Xu Yuan to express their gratitude, no longer looking down on the young man in front of them.

Xu Yuan heard Xiao Jiu's notification tone again, and this time, 240,000 points were credited to his account. Xu Yuan counted the heads and found that there were 44 people coming this time, not including the four children who had been cured and Wen Dajun, as well as Wen Dajun's family. Excluding the 20,000 points that had to be used, this time the profit was quite good.

The next step is to deal with those crazy villagers.

"Master, what do you mean?"

Village Chief Wang sat down in front of Xu Yuan again. He wanted to ask Xu Yuan when he would be free to deal with the people at home, but he found that Xu Yuan just gave him a piece of talisman paper and a rattan stick about the length of a finger. He was a little confused.

"Plant this in the corner of your home and keep watering it until it grows. Take a piece of fresh vine juice and mix it with the ashes from burning the talisman paper. Place it next to the person overnight. Remember to cover his mouth and nose."

"So will they be able to return to normal tomorrow?" asked Village Chief Wang excitedly.

"Ah."

"Thank you, Master." Village Chief Wang took out five taels of silver and a box from his arms and handed them to Xu Yuan.

"This is wild ginseng, please accept it, Master." Village chief Wang opened the wooden box, revealing what was inside. The main root was thick and branched out with many long and thin roots, which were covered with some dried mud.

Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows. In this unknown village, every household sold precious medicinal herbs.

"Do you know why the village suffered this disaster?" Xu Yuan couldn't help but ask.

"It's just that those guys accepted some people's bounty and took them to the mountains, saying they were looking for poisonous snakes, but after they came out, they became like this." The villagers who knew the inside story no longer concealed it and told it out.

Those guys were the first to fall ill. In the end, they became neither human nor ghost. Ropes could no longer tie them up, so they had to be locked up in the house. The entrances and exits were blocked with boards and other things. We invited several masters to take a look, but they were all scared away. Now no one dares to approach them.

"Venomous snake?"

"Yes, there are several families in our village who make a living by catching snakes. Those poisonous snakes can be used as medicine after being dried. They are very familiar with the deep mountains."

"Do you know who it is?"

"Those people are wrapped up tightly and are holding knives and swords. We dare not offend them."

Xu Yuan didn't get any clear clues from the villagers, so he had to give up.

"Will this method also work on those boys?" When Village Chief Wang heard someone mention it, he remembered those boys. Several women behind him also hurried forward and looked at Xu Yuan with expectation.

In order to make amends, the men in their family did not dare to stop for a moment and looked for an expert outside.

"Of course it works, unless the person is already dead. I hope you won't hide it, or you will bear the consequences at your own risk."

Xu Yuan glanced at the people in the crowd who looked guilty.

"dead?"

The villagers who didn't understand what it meant exclaimed, looking at each other with surprise on their faces.

"My grandfather came back to life from the dead, but the master said that it was because of a bug that possessed his body and drove it to move. That's why he could move independently after death. It's all an illusion," Wen Dajun explained.

As soon as Wen Dajun said this, everyone remembered the body covered with white cloth. It turned out that it was not that it was not buried, but that it had not been buried in time.

"Oh my god, look at what's happened to our village?"

"The master is here, everyone should not hide it, otherwise even if we cure it, it will be ineffective."

"Yes, don't hide it. Those are not your relatives. They are insects. Just like what is said in the opera, it is like a poisonous insect that possesses you. It harms people."

The villagers began to talk among themselves, and a few people in the crowd finally stood in front of Xuyuan while everyone was talking about the pros and cons.

Cui Hongmei shivered and said softly, "Master, my husband is the one who came back from the dead. Can you please come to my house and treat him so that he can rest in peace as soon as possible? I will definitely give you a generous gift to thank you."
