Chapter 51: Red leaves

Qin Xiao soon saw that from the bamboo tube, two small bugs creeped out and crawled into the palm of Ma Po.
The bug was snow-white, just like the silkworm pupa and silkworm babies. Qin Xiao didn't know what the mother-in-law wanted to do, but she saw the two white insects crawling to the palm and they didn't move. The mother-in-law stared at Qin Xiao's eyes and asked, "You Can you recognize this bug?"
Qin Xiao shook his head and Ma Po sneered: "This is called a heart-eater. The favorite food is the human heart. It crawls from your mouth and enters the heart. Within half a day, you can swallow your heart clean. "
Qin Xiao changed color slightly, struggling and said, "What do you want to do?"
"I didn't want to do anything." Ma Po said softly: "Baby bugs have been hungry for a few days, and today they can just let them enjoy themselves."
Qin Xiao smiled reluctantly: "Mother, will you never let them eat my heart?"
"You're smart." Ma Po's dark, dark eyes stared at Qin Xiao: "You are still young, the heart is fresh and tender, and it is a good food for heartworms."
Qin Xiao saw the worm in her palm, only to feel very disgusted, and smiled bitterly: "We have no injustice, no hatred, you don't have to hurt me like this?"
"I only ask you who came out of your house that night." Ma Po said lightly: "If you honestly admit, I can spare you once."
Qin Xiao reluctantly said: "I really don't know her, to tell you the truth, I also want to know who she really is...!" , Pinching Qin Xiao's jawbone very skillfully, Qin Xiao's mouth opened involuntarily, Ma Po didn't hesitate at all, the other hand covered Qin Xiao's mouth, and two white worms instantly entered Qin Xiao's mouth.
Qin Xiao was horrified in his heart and wanted to spit it out, but Ma Po’s palm was tightly covered, and the two white worms entered his mouth, becoming very active. Qin Xiao couldn’t stop it at all, and felt that the two white worms quickly got in In his throat, he then directly entered the esophagus.
Mapo clearly determined that the white worm had entered Qin Xiao's esophagus and withdrew her hand. Qin Xiao immediately vomited, trying to spit out the bug, and bitterly spit out two bites.
"Dead old lady, when did Laozi offend you?" Qin Xiao was fed into the stomach by an worm, "Is there anyone in Laozi's family going in and out of your way?"
Ma Po just stood in front of him, looked at him coldly, and did not speak.
"You quickly get them out for Lao Tzu." Qin Xiao was afraid and anxious in his heart: "I'm a man in the government house. If you really hurt me, Duwei Mansion must investigate thoroughly. Is it dry food? No matter how deep you hide, they will surely be able to pull you out."
Ma Po sniffed and said, "They always eat dry food, don't you know?"
Qin Xiao was stunned. At this moment, he faintly felt that the bug seemed to wriggle in his stomach. He didn't know whether he really felt it or was a psychological effect. Absolutely?"
"What did you see just now?" Ma Po asked Qin Xiao's eyes.
Qin Xiao was stunned for a moment, and was a little embarrassed. After all, he climbed through the window to peek at the bath, and it was not a glorious thing to say.
"I think you didn't blow the lamp so late, worrying about what happened to you." Qin Xiao thought for a while, and then said: "I thought you were an old woman, in case something really happened, there was no care, so... .!"
Mapo said: "So you want to see if I am dead?"
Qin Xiao said quickly: "No, just to see if you are sick or otherwise, I didn't curse you."
Ma Po snorted sharply, shot sharply, Qin Xiao was taken aback, "Ah" whispered, but found that Ma Po actually cut the tendon rope that helped her legs, He walked around behind him and cut the rope that tied his hands.
Qin Xiao did not expect that Ma Po was changing fast before and after. She got up and moved her hands and feet, and then listened to Ma Po said lightly: "That is not a heart-eater. They can live in your body for two days. You don’t have to panic. These two days they will Move around your meridians to help you connect your veins."
Qin Xiao was startled and said unexpectedly: "Tongmai?"
"In the early years, you were affected by the cold, and the meridians contracted, and you couldn't practice Qi and martial arts at all." Ma Po put her knife away and calmly said: "But the blood has made your meridians stretch, but it hasn't happened overnight. It can be restored, although this snow worm can't make you recover quickly, at least it is very helpful for meridian relaxation."
In these words, Qin Xiao was surprised and said, "How do you know?" But it came to me in an instant, and said: "You... How many times have you saved my grace?"
Qin Xiao didn't know where the mysterious old lady was, but when she saw Ma Po that day, she was suspicious.
It's just that he couldn't imagine that the old lady who bought the oil diagonally to the door would have that skill.
But at the moment she said this, Qin Xiao almost immediately determined that the mao in front of her was the mysterious old lady she had always wanted to find.
Except for the mysterious old lady, almost no one in the world knows that he has been tortured by cold disease, and it is impossible for anyone to know that he has been taking blood to fight cold disease.
Ma Po is the benefactor she has been thinking about, and Qin Xiao only feels unbelievable.
For nearly two hundred days, he was waiting for the appearance of Eun Gong almost every day, but where did he know that Eun Gong he had been waiting for was looking at himself diagonally across the door.
Ma Po didn't admit it, but went to the corner of the house, where there was a small table with several oil altars.
Although she did not admit it, since she did not deny it, it was equivalent to acquiescence, and Qin Xiao had completely confirmed her identity.
Countless doubts came to my mind for a time.
"Um.....Benevolence, how do you know that I am suffering from cold?" Qin Xiao leaned over, "how do you know that blood can resist cold?" When he walked to Ma Po, he saw that Ma Po had been turned on. Altar, carefully remove a porcelain bottle from the inside.
"Benefactor, what is this?" Qin Xiaoqi said.
Ma Po turned around and her voice was still cold: "Don't call me a benefactor." The voice was still low and hoarse. Open the porcelain bottle and pour a very small pill from the palm. Qin Xiao glanced and whispered: " This is a blood pill made from dog blood."
"Blood pill?" Qin Xiao twisted carefully from the palm of Ma Po.
"You put the blood in the gourd now, but it is not a long-term plan." Ma Po said: "Once the secret of the gourd is discovered, it is not good after all. I have been thinking about how to be better for the past six months. To solve this problem and think about it, the best way is to make blood into blood pills, so that it is convenient for you to take, even if this blood pill is found, you have 100 reasons to explain."
Qin Xiao said quickly: "It's exactly." I thought it was much more convenient to carry blood pills on my body than to hold blood in the gourd.
Moreover, the blood storage time in the inner calabash should not be too long. If the time is too long, it will coagulate into a block, which is very inconvenient, and blood will be wasted for this reason.
"This bottle is enough for you to use for three months." Ma Po said: "In addition to blood, there are some nourishing herbs in the blood pills, which are good for your body." Pass the porcelain bottle in your hand to Qin Xiao, Qin Taking care of both hands in a hurry, grateful, said: "Benevolence, why do you help me this way?"
"I said don't call me a benefactor." Ma Po was obviously a little unhappy.
Qin Xiao embarrassedly said: "Then I still call you Ma Po?"
Ma Po thought for a while before whispering: "My name is Hongye, but you don't have to remember."
"Hongye?" Qin Xiao immediately said: "Good name, good name, really nice."
Ma Po snorted, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it.
Qin Xiao put the porcelain bottle into his arms, and then he said: "Hongye... mother-in-law, how do you know that I am suffering from cold?" I have been traveling by crane to the west. No one knows the disease of cold syndrome except myself.
"It's time to tell you, you don't need to ask, I will let you know." Hongye Leng Ruo Frost: "You shouldn't know, you don't need nonsense."
"Oh!" Qin Xiao said quickly: "Got it."
He also understood at this time why Ghost Shousan had to find himself to settle the account that night, but the mysterious old lady appeared in time. The mother-in-law was across from her house, paying attention to the movements in her yard. But with the strength of Hongye, of course it is clear.
Hongye did not speak, the two stood, the atmosphere was awkward.
"You still have something?" Hongye asked lightly.
Although she saved Qin Xiao's life several times, and made every effort to make bleeding pills for Qin Xiao, but talking to Qin Xiao was very cold.
Qin Xiao thought that this should be due to his temperament.
"No." Qin Xiao embarrassedly said: "I just want to know, why do you... save me?"
Hongye said: "You didn't hear what I just said?"
"Hear and hear, don't know what you shouldn't know." Qin Xiao squeezed a smile: "Yes, I have some doubts about something, I want to ask you for advice." Waiting for Hongye to speak, immediately said: "Not nonsense, It’s...it’s [Ancient Idea]."
Hongye said: "What's wrong? Have you practiced these days?"
"I don't dare to forget your orders." Qin Xiaodao said: "I practice as soon as I have time, but there is something very strange."
"Oh?"
"I have never practiced internal skills." Qin Xiaodao said: "But some people said that I had practiced internal skills for half a year, and I also said that I was already a master of quality..."
"Yipin master?" Hongye sneered: "When did Yipin become a master?"
Qin Xiao knew it was even more embarrassing: "I was wrong, he said that I was a martial artist, but I had internal strength, but I don’t remember that I started practicing internal power six months ago, Hongye..... ,What exactly is going on?"
Hongye said: "You reach out."
Qin Xiao hurriedly rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his hand. Hongye found and put them on Qin Xiao's hand veins. It looked like he was putting pulses on the patient's veins and commanded: "Deep inhale!"
Qin Xiao took a deep breath according to the instructions of Hongye, and then slowly exhaled.
Hongye's skin did not become rough because of her martial arts, if her hands were soft, if her muscles were creamy, and her fingers rested on her hand veins, Qin Xiao could even feel smooth.
Hongye lightly "huh", looked up at Qin Xiao's eyes, saw Qin Xiao also looking at himself, and asked, "Have you not practiced internal skills before?"
"No, absolutely not." Qin Xiao immediately said: "I can swear to the sky...!"
"If you don't, you don't have any. What a vow." Hongye was a little displeased. "Are you starting to practice Qi from [Ancient Qi Qi Jue]?"
"Yes." Qin Xiaodao said: "You gave me [Ancient Ideas and Tricks] that night, and I began to vomit according to the method inside."
Hongye withdrew his hand and thought for a moment, then silenced for a moment, then said: "Then I want to congratulate you. You will reach the level that others have only reached for half a year in a few days!"
