Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 10: Irregular elixir


Lin Huo didn't wake up from the hangover until the afternoon. Just when he was dizzy and opened his eyes, he suddenly saw Wu Mian sitting by his bed and looking at him with a strange look . Seeing Lin Huo awake, Wu Mian said, "I thought you could wake up only after you became an ancestor." Lin Huo wasn't fully awake yet. There was a blank space in the middle, and after opening his mouth for a long time, nothing came out.

"I haven't woken up yet..." Wu Mian looked at Lin Huo with a half-smile, and then the thumb and index finger of his right hand bent inward, and "zizi" shot an electric arc at the junction of the two fingertips. . Before Lin Huo could see what was going on, the arc flashing hand had already pressed down on Lin Huo's waist.

"Ah, ah, ah..." An electric current ran down Lin Huo's waist and directly into his brain, and all of a sudden, the alcoholism disappeared without a trace, and his thinking became clear in an instant. Although his mind was instantly awake, the side effect was that Lin Huo bowed like a shrimp, and the muscles in his whole body had been out of his control, shaking involuntarily.

"It's alright...well, Qingqingqing...was awake" Lin Huo used his strength to suckle, and then these words popped out of his mouth.

"Don't talk sooner when I'm awake." When Wu Mian spoke, his right hand had left Lin Huo's body, and the arc generated at the top of his fingertips disappeared without a trace at the same time. At this time, the forest fire was back to normal, and there was no other discomfort in the body other than the numbness.

After finally calming down, Lin Huo looked at Wu Mian in horror and asked several questions in a row: "How did you do it just now? Is that witchcraft? Why didn't you listen to you before? Did you say you can do witchcraft?"

"It's a little trick. When you go out, why do you have to be close to yourself?" Wu Mian smiled lightly, looked at Lin Huo's expression and paused, then said again: "After you became Wu Zu in a few years So I look down on this kind of trick to bluff people." The trick Wu Mian said was exactly the trick recorded in the bamboo slips left by Xu Fu in the cave of Yanshan Mountain in eastern Liaoning.

Hearing Wu Mian say this, Lin Huo blinked his eyes, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he said with a bit of frustration: "Even if I become Wu Zu, I probably won't be able to do such a little trick like you." When he got here, he paused, looked at the hand that Wu Mian 'electric' just now, and continued: "This little trick taught me... I've heard of the rules of the people over there, you have to kowtow when you learn something, right? ?"

After he finished speaking, he turned over and stood up, bent his knees towards Wu Mian and knelt down, then leaned forward and kowtowed. Wu Mian didn't stop the forest fire either, but when he kowtowed, Wu Mian stepped aside and gave up his position.

Lin Huo kowtowed with one head, but when he looked up, Wu Mian could no longer be seen. Seeing the white-haired young man change positions, Lin Huo was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand what Wu Mian meant.

Wu Mian looked at the dazed forest fire, and said slowly: "This kind of trick is not worth your head, I want to learn it and teach you at any time. This is not enough, I have better things to cheap you" When he was talking, Wu Mian had already spread out his other hand, revealing the dark pill inside.

After Lin Huo glanced at the pill, he said to Wu Mian inexplicably, "What is this?"

Wu Mian looked at the pill in his hand and said, "Some people said that if you eat this medicine, you will live forever. After I take it, it seems to be immortal. Do you want to try it..."

"Immortal?" Lin Huo laughed and continued: "I saw with my own eyes what it was like for you to be caught by a beast. This kind of injury almost didn't survive, how could you not live forever..."

When Lin Huo was halfway through speaking, Wu Mian had already lifted the trousers of the 'injured leg', where are there any traces of being pinched by a beast on the exposed calf? Lin Huo was stunned when he saw it, and murmured: "It wasn't like this when I changed your dressing three days ago"

"What you see is only what I let you see" Wu Mian put down his trousers, looked at Lin Huo and continued: "If you put your heart in your stomach, if you want to do something to you, I will not keep you Up to now. I have countless opportunities to reincarnate you every day..."

Speaking, Wu Mian threw the medicinal pill at the forest fire and said in his mouth: "I will leave the medicinal pill for you, it is up to you to eat it or not, but there is one thing to say in front. It is not for everyone. The physique is suitable for this medicine, and after taking the medicine, there are two possibilities. One is immortality, and the other is death after taking it. It depends on your luck.”

Lin Huo's hand holding the medicinal pill trembled slightly. He had believed Wu Mian's words by 70-80%, but the last few words made him uneasy again. Seeing Lin Huo's expression in Wu Mian's eyes, he said, "I don't need you to eat it right away. You can make a decision after you understand it. If you don't eat it, return the medicine pill to me. I'll go out for a few days. Think about it. ..." After speaking, he turned around and left the bamboo building, leaving only a forest fire staring at the medicinal herb in his hand in a daze.

After coming out of the forest fire, Wu Mian returned to his residence. He has also saved some food these days, but unfortunately it is still in an environment of bartering, and there is no place to spend money when there is gold cake.

Wu Mian returned to the forest with food. During the period of cultivation, he asked the forest fire to draw a map of the mountain. Although it could not be linked with Xu Fu's map, but after turning around a few times, maybe he found something. valuable clues.

Nine days later, Wu Mian reappeared in the Miao village, but he still hadn't found the location of Xu Fu's map. Five days ago, he had finished his food. The wild fruits on the mountain and the wild beasts were eaten. The wild fruits were okay, but it had been raining heavily these days, so he couldn't make fire for roasting, and the beasts could only be eaten raw. It was really disgusting, and Wu Mian remembered that he could at least eat a warm meal when he returned to the village.

The folk customs of Miao Village are simple, and everyone knows that he is a friend of the next Wu Zu. After Aiwu and Wuxia, Wu Mian returned here again, and the locals did not have any extra expressions. However, when he returned to the bamboo building where he lived before, he found that someone was already waiting for him here. When Wu Mian came back, this person rushed out and said to Wu Mian, "The medicine you gave me, I ate...not dead"

This person is the forest fire that has been bothering him for nineteen days, but Wu Mian doesn't believe his words. Looking at Lin Huo's jet-black hair, Wu Mian said, "Eat...you don't look like it."

After returning to the bamboo building, Wu Mian gave Lin Huo a pulse. Compared with the last time, Lin Huo's current meridians have undergone earth-shaking changes. But in Wu Mian's opinion, this level of change is still far from his reaction after taking the medicine pill. Now it seems that Lin Huo has indeed taken the medicinal herbs, and there is no conflict between the medicinal properties, but why is the effect so poor, and even the hair has not turned white? If Xu Fu is there, he can still see clues. And Wu Mian thought about it, and he could only guess that it was because of his personal constitution.

After hearing Wu Mian's answer, Lin Huo wanted to ask for another pill from Wu Mian. But Wu Mian didn't let go. Looking at the forest fire that had changed a little when he first met him, he said, "It may be because of your constitution. No matter how much you eat, you won't absorb much. Forget it, how much is more. You can be considered to have absorbed a lot of medicinal power. It can also be regarded as a manifestation of immortality.”

Lin Huo had an angry expression on his face, but he also saw that he couldn't get the medicine pill from Wu Mian, so he had to find another way.

In the days that followed, Wu Mian once again lived in Miao Village. In addition to eating every day, he used the map drawn by the forest fire to compare with the map in his memory, but he still couldn't find a match. Wu Mian was busy with himself every day. He didn't notice Yang Xiao, who used to appear with Lin Huo, and he didn't know when he disappeared. He would never have thought that when he and Yang Xiao met again, more than two thousand years had passed. At that time, he and Yang Xiao had already forgotten each other's appearance. Moreover, that is already the story of another person...
