Capítulo 949: Chapter 384: Immune to Hundred Poisons
Behind them were two young people they didn’t recognize.
The old man furrowed his brows slightly:
“A couple of young ones, I suppose you haven’t met the old man before?
“Let me advise you: the Poison Dragon Pill Scripture isn’t something honorable.
“Getting involved will cost your lives… Moreover, you can’t obtain it.
“So dispel the idea, turn around and leave, lest your valuable lives are wasted here.”
Su Mo heard this and exchanged a glance with Little Situ, smiling faintly:
“If it weren’t for the bloodstains on the rooftop and the pile of bones,
“I’d think the elder had a kind heart.”
“You young one, saying such a thing is quite immature.”
The old man chuckled and took out a chicken leg from his pocket, bringing it to his mouth for a bite:
“Though it is said that the exotic treasures of Jianghu are often possessed by the virtuous,
“in reality, it belongs to those with superior skills.
“They fight for the Poison Dragon Pill Scripture, and the old man wants it too…
“But if I were to negotiate with them, do you think any of them would take an old man like me seriously?
“Speaking to them nicely obviously won’t work.
“So, the only way is to show true skills on the battlefield.
“But I’m afraid of dying and the pain, don’t really want to fight, so I play little tricks to toy with them.
“As for… if they perish in the process, can they truly blame this old man?
“If they hadn’t fought over the Poison Dragon Pill Scripture, their lives wouldn’t be wasted.
“Young one, you look admirable, smart, not like someone who doesn’t listen to elders. That’s why I’m speaking to you earnestly.
“If you’re sensible, walk away and don’t get caught in this mess.
“If you’re not… well, the old man may be compassionate, but with his hands already stained with blood, he wouldn’t mind adding two more lives.”
Su Mo nodded repeatedly:
“You’re right, elder. If it weren’t for secretly poisoning three times just now, I might have believed your words.”
“…Oh.”
The old man was momentarily speechless:
“You noticed that?”
“I didn’t notice it.”
Su Mo laughed and said, “It was my little sister who noticed it.”
“Oh?”
The old man looked surprisingly at Little Situ behind Su Mo. Little Situ raised her head high, and seeing the old man’s gaze, she snorted.
This amused the old man, and he laughed:
“A good girl, quite skilled. I wonder to which school you belong. This old man has delved into ‘poison’ all his life.
“Among fellow practitioners, there are some acquaintances. Tell me who your family is, just in case the old man knows them, we might speak nicely today.
“No need for unnecessary trouble, damaging relations.”
“No need.”
Little Situ lifted her chin:
“My family doesn’t know such a high person as you, elder.”
“Hahahaha.”
The old man laughed heartily: “The little girl doesn’t value the old man’s tricks, but she doesn’t know medicine and poison are inseparable.
“Used righteously, it can save countless lives.
“Used wickedly, it can kill and harm.
“The old man’s methods depend solely on intention, whether to save or harm depends on the kind of person opposite.”
Su Mo nodded gently:
“Elder, your realm is extraordinary and admirable.”
“If you admire, then leave quickly. You two kids are quite amusing, and the old man doesn’t want to commit unnecessary killing.”
The old man said while gnawing on the chicken leg, waving his hand.
Su Mo however smiled:
“No need to rush, seeing your skills today, elder, I followed you for two reasons.
“I hope you can agree, elder.”
“Hmm?”
The old man was puzzled: “Two things? Isn’t fighting for the Poison Dragon Pill Scripture one matter?
“How come there are two now?
“I’m a bit curious, speak, and I’ll ponder whether to agree.”
“Sure.”
Su Mo nodded:
“My sister was born with an ailment.
“Her legs have been immobile… Observing your skills today, elder, clearly you have notable skill in medicine and poison.
“Thus, I’d like to ask if you can see if there’s a way to treat her.”
“…”
The old man was startled: “You came to seek medical help?”
Little Situ also looked at Su Mo in surprise.
She thought Su Mo was after the Poison Dragon Pill Scripture.
Taking her was to guard against the other’s poison techniques.
Thus she remained spirited, like a proud little phoenix.
But hearing Su Mo’s words now, she realized she was mistaken, and suddenly felt warmth from Su Mo’s back, a slight drowsiness in her heart, wishing she could just rest on him and never get down.
Su Mo didn’t know Little Situ’s thoughts, but nodded gently to the old man:
“Indeed.”
“Do you know who this old man is?”
“I wouldn’t presume to ask.”
“You don’t even know who this old man is, yet dare to seek medical help?
“Aren’t you afraid I might harm her life?”
The old man said severely!
Su Mo shook his head lightly:
“Honestly, seeking your help, elder, is just a shot in the dark.”
