Looking at the mess of the herbs being dried at the door of the pharmacy, Tang An couldn't help but ask: "Isn't there a place behind the pharmacy? Why are they dried here? It's hard for you to kick them when people come and go and you have an urgent matter." .¡±
"The backyard is full to dry." Yaotong said with a wry smile: "During this period, the black cavalry of the Great Xia Empire and the cavalry of our empire are conducting military exercises on the border. The barbarians will definitely not dare to come and cause trouble. Not only are there many people hunting in our village, Even the old, weak, women and children go out to collect medicines in large numbers. The medicines we have received in the recent period are comparable to what we usually receive in several months, so we can¡¯t dry them in a short period of time.¡±
"Do you have these medicines?" He nodded and took out the medical book from his arms. Tang An turned over the marked poisonous weeds and flowers to the medicine boy.
It was the same as Tang Tang's expression, but the medicine boy obviously knew more than Tang Tang. He frowned, but he just looked at Tang Anhu and asked without comment: "These are poisonous herbs. Someone accidentally got them." Our husband can also remove the poison, so why are you asking?"
"But it is of some use." Tang An said with a smile: "Does our medical center have them? Or where can I get these herbs nearby?"
"They are all available in medical clinics." The little medicine boy who obviously knew what happened yesterday and thought of something said warily: "You don't want to use these herbs to harm people, do you? I have told you clearly just now that these herbs Although herbal medicines are poisonous, they are not strong. Most of them are used to treat diseases when combined with other herbs. Even if a single type or several types are mixed together and used as poison, the poisoned person will not have any effect for a while. , it¡¯s useless to rely on them to kill people.¡±
"I don't plan to kill anyone by relying on them alone." Tang An looked at the little medicine boy seriously and said, "You yourself know whether these herbs will have any effect when used on others. I will fight with them." If I just rely on it in the life-and-death arena, I'm afraid I'll be beaten to death before the poison is released; if I take it too early, it's even more useless if I can detoxify it, sir."
The little medicine boy was quite stubborn. He blinked at Tang An and asked without giving up: "It's not that I can't give you the medicine, but you still have to tell me what I'm here for?"
Tang An smiled and said softly: "When I was in Qinglin Valley, a low-level swordsman and I were locked up in a cell by the barbarians. He told me a recipe, by mixing some slightly poisonous swordsman. Soaking the herbal medicine in wine and then rubbing it on the body can temper and stimulate the body in a short period of time, which can help to achieve a breakthrough in strength. Now I have no choice, but I want to give it a try."
"I'm afraid he deceived you. How could such a thing happen?" The little medicine boy shook his head and said a few words before seeing a trace of sadness flash in Tang An's eyes, and he suddenly understood the meaning of his last sentence. Looking at him sympathetically, the little medicine boy immediately changed his tone and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go look for it."
"Interesting little guy." Seeing him turn around and hurriedly walked into the noisy medical clinic, the sadness in Tang An's eyes was swept away, and he couldn't help but laugh.
Not long after waiting, the medicine boy came out carrying a bundled yellow paper medicine bag. After handing it to Tang An, he said kindly: "Sir, as you said last time, if you don't understand or need anything, just ask." Just come and get it. Here, these are what you want, but you have to be careful when using them. If you feel symptoms of poisoning, you should come here early to see Mr. detoxification and treatment."
"I know, I'm not stupid enough to commit suicide. Thank you!" Tang An responded with a smile, then waved and left.
Unexpectedly, he collected all the poisonous flowers and weeds he needed just by asking. After leaving the pharmacy, Tang An did not rush back. He walked over to the blacksmith shop and saw that there were not many people there. He hesitated but still walked in. .
"Tang An?" Blacksmith Wang sat by the stove with a bowl of herbal tea in his hands and drank sips at a time. When he saw Tang An walking over, he stood up and looked at him with complex eyes on his dark face. Blacksmith Wang was nervous. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
"I have to trouble you again, Uncle Wang." Tang An said, taking out the drawings he had drawn long ago and handing it over. He was not used to using a brush, but he drew it with charcoal strips.
"Arrows! What's the use of such short arrows?" After looking at the drawings for a few times, Blacksmith Wang frowned, but he pointed at a row of large and small bows and arrows hanging on the wall of the shop and said, "Except for the border troops who are prohibited from making them. I don¡¯t know how to use the crossbow, and I have all kinds of bows here. Even if you make such a short arrow, you won¡¯t be able to use it.¡±
Tang An smiled and said: "Of course it is useful. I will use it in two days at most. I won't delay you, Uncle Wang, right?"
"Short arrows are easy to make. With polishing and sharpening, I can make dozens of them in one day, and they can be finished tomorrow."
Tang An didn¡¯t know what he wanted the short arrow for, but Blacksmith Wang didn¡¯t ask. This Zhulong Village is not a big place, and there is no Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger, but all the families are exiled.He is a guilty person who has even seen and crafted weird weapons such as the Blacksmith of the Machine King. If he couldn't control his mouth or had no professional ethics, he would have died long ago.
"I want sixteen of the same short arrows. Thirteen of them will be made according to the drawings. The remaining three don't need arrow shafts, just arrows. They must be made of fine iron. Please tell Uncle Wang to tell the guy that they must be polished. , especially the three arrowheads must be made heavier and sharper, so you can send a man to inform me." Tang An said and smiled, but he left a tael of silver and walked away.
"This kid, after going through a lot of hardships, finally came back, but he ran into this kind of thing again."
Seeing that Tang An had run away, Blacksmith Wang couldn't help but sigh as he looked at his back. He shook his head and put away the money. He felt a little suffocated for no reason, so he smashed the tea bowl on the ground and immediately picked up a few pieces of scrap metal. Throw it into the furnace, hold the bellows with your strong and strong arms and start burning.
¡¡¡¡
When he was on the blue planet in his previous life, Tang An did not get involved in the Tang Sect's poison arts. It was not that he was too self-righteous to bother feeding poison to his hidden weapons. The Tang Sect was originally famous for its hidden weapons and poison techniques. The traps and light skills were only auxiliary techniques. There were endless and varied hidden weapon techniques, plus poisons that sealed the throat with blood and killed people invisible. There is a saying that "I would rather meet the King of Hell than the King of Hell." "Provoking Tang Menlang" is all he said.
The reason why he did not get involved in poison is simply because the environment in which Tang An lived in his previous life had been severely damaged. There were many poisons in the Tang Sect's "Poison Classic" whose names sounded terrifying just because they did not have the required materials. In addition, when he was a child, his father accidentally died when he was obsessed with verifying the "Qianjibra" poison recipe found in the ancient house. Tang An, who had a shadow in his young mind, has never been in awe of poison magic since then. Haven't touched it yet.
Things are different after coming to this world of martial arts. Tang An knows what dangers are hidden under the calm surface. He has already tried it. Even with powerful cold weapons derived from alien technology, The huge difference in strength left him with almost no power to fight back when facing strong men in the Jigang stage.
Leng Buding used a soft whip to instantly kill a high-level warrior in the Formation Stage, Aris Leng. This was not due to skill but luck. Tang An was not so naive as to think that he could use the same method to kill a strong barbarian in the Formation Stage again when he faced him again. It is impossible for the enemy to pin their hopes on the heroic outbursts of two things in the body that are not known as "gang souls" or "souls" from time to time. What's more, such outbursts are useful against elite barbarians or strong men of the same level. God knows whether he can win so fiercely and violently against a powerful Jigang Stage expert.
Not to mention anything else, if a mid-level archer like Tantai Xinyue faced her, a single arrow from a long distance would kill her on the spot. Or any of the guards, after the other party has clearly understood the characteristics of his alien cold weapon, Tang An, who has no skills, has no choice but to die. This naturally includes Tang Tianxiong or Tang Renjie.
Alien cold weapons are important, but they have not reached the point where they are more important than life. He does not want to place all his hopes on them. Tang An must do everything possible to improve his strength and strength in the shortest possible time, and the Tang Sect Hidden weapons and poisons are the key now. All he has to do now is to master the basic hidden weapon techniques stored in his mind in the shortest possible time, and then select several colorless, odorless, invisible and shadowless weapons from the Poison Sutra. The poison comes out to be refined.
The former requires continuous and hard practice, which Tang An is already doing. As for poisons, Tang An borrowed medical books from Xue Wuji just to combine his previous life with poisonous weeds, poisonous flowers, etc. with different names in this martial arts world. After waiting for a long time, he was also pleasantly surprised to find that except for the different names, the shape and color of the poisonous weeds and flowers shown in the Tang Sect's "Poison Classic" were the same in this world, and most importantly, they were not difficult to find.
For example, in Tang An's previous life, he liked to travel to historical sites, mountains and dense forests, and sometimes he would involuntarily search for the materials needed to refine it, but two of the poisonous weeds could not be found. Tang An, who was full of hope in this world of martial arts, originally wanted to go to the medical clinic to inquire about it, but he didn't expect that when the little medicine boy went in and gave it a spin, he had collected all the six kinds of poisonous weeds and flowers needed for "Uker Powder". He was overjoyed for a while.
