Chapter 4 (2/2)

“Qin Lang, you said I was poisoned before. What did that mean?” Tauro asked while standing.

“Fire boil, it’s because the fire poison invades and attacks. The heat bottles up within the skin, or the internal organs acc.u.mulate heat, and the poison develops from inside…”

“Okay okay, no need to go into detail.” Tauro interrupted Qin Lang, “Say it simply!”

“It’s caused by fire poison.” This time Qin Lang was really straightforward.

“Then how do you cure it?” That was the thing that Tauro was concerned about.

“Three ways.” Qin Lang said, “I’ll say the first two. First, use plain water leeches and put them on the afflicted area, letting it such away the pus, blood, and poison. It would be completely healed in one night——”

“Leeches!” Tauro felt that those things were already disgusting, and now they were talking about putting it on herself! She quickly said, “I feel like puking when I hear it. In any case, where would you even find those things?”

“I brought one.” Qin Lang fumbled around his pocket, and like doing magic, he pulled out a white leech, “The treatment of nature. Use this one?”

“Ah!” Tauro couldn’t contain her exclamation, and she looked like she couldn’t avoid the leech, “Take it away! It’s better if you just say the second method——”

“The second method, is using the pa.s.sed down ‘Hundred Poison Gold Boil Ointment’. Just smear it and it’ll heal it.” Qin Lang said, “I think Aunt Tau can receive this method right?”

“Then the third method?” Under the urge of curiosity, Tauro couldn’t help but ask.

“The third method, it’s better if I don’t say it.” Qin Lang shaked his head.

“Say it!” The more Qin Lang didn’t want to say it, the more Tauro wanted to know.

“Just leave it, it’s better not known.”

“Speak!”

“This is you forcing me to say it!” Said Qin Lang, “If I say it then don’t get angry!”

“I won’t.” Tauro seemed very calm.

“The third method, is me touching the affected area——”

“Shameless!” Tauro’s eyes were filled with anger, and she really wanted to roll up her sleeves and take care of Qin Lang. In the short afternoon, Tauro unexpectedly had two times when she wanted to hit someone, and it was the same person for both times.

“Ms. Tau, that was you forcing me to say it!” Qin Lang faked a face of grievance.

“Who said you could spit nonsense!” Tauro already put away her raised palm.

“I didn’t say nonsense!” Qin Lang said words of truth, “I said I would touch the affected area, then use a silver needle to puncture it, forcing out the pus and blood. It’s just like doing a small simple surgery!”

Looking at the seriousness of Qin Lang, Tauro even thought that she wronged him. But no matter what, she would not have allowed Qin Lang to touch her bottom, and said, “Then why didn’t you say you only had two methods!”

“The medical arts is a serious thing.”

“Okay, then hurry up and bring the dog skin ointment or something to me, hopefully it works.” Tauro was getting a bit impatient, because at this time she felt that the fire boil started to hurt again.

“It’s not dog skin ointment, it’s ‘Hundred Poison Gold Boil Ointment’.” Qin Lang corrected Tauro.

“Hundred poison? The ointment is made with poison?”

“That’s right, use poison to fight poison, you should have heard of that right?” Qin Lang smiled and said, “If not, then you try the nature approach?”

“Whatever, then I’ll use the ointment.” Tauro considered her options. The third is a no-go, the first is way too frightening, maybe the second is the most suitable.

“That’s fine.” Qin Lang seemed to have it prepared already, and pulled out a black, hardwood box. After opening the box, a strange fragrance of medicine filled the entire room.

“Nice smell!” Tauro suddenly praised it. She never would have thought that the ointment would have a better smell than perfume, and instantly gave a huge increase of trust in Qin Lang’s ointment.

“Aunt Tau, should I help you smear the ointment, or will you?” Qin Lang pretended to know nothing and asked another question.
