How to fight poison with poison?

Old Huang didn't show much emotional fluctuation and was quite interested in the treatment method Xu Yuan mentioned.

"Are you suggesting I ingest some strange or unusual poison?"

"It's not quite poison," Xu Yuan said calmly, "but it's close."

"Whether it's the 'Yin Hua Cao' or the 'Ping Shi Yu', they are both extremely yin and extremely evil creatures."

It seems that the treatment method proposed by Mr. Shi was also a similar strategy of fighting poison with poison.

His method was just relatively mild.

Even if it can't be cured, it won't kill you.

"My method is a bit too simple and crude."

The effect could be even more intense.

"Are you worried that my old bones can't handle it?"

Old Huang also understood the meaning behind Xu Yuan's words.

He was aware of the treatment Tian Le had given him earlier.

The main consideration was his age. Although Master Huang was a master, he might not be able to withstand the strong effects of the medicine.

Every medicine has its side effects. If Shi Tianle dies after taking his own medicine, he will be known as a master of killing for the rest of his life.

"Use whatever methods you have."

Old Huang looked relaxed: "Having lived this long, what storms haven't I weathered?"

"I'm injured, not bedridden and unable to get out of bed."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan no longer hesitated and said directly, "To force out the cold yin energy in the dantian, a non-toxic medicine is needed."

"With the assistance of other medicinal herbs, it may be possible to completely eliminate the corrosive energy from your body."

"The five poisonous creatures used in medicine?"

Huang Yiyi looked at Xu Yuan incredulously from the side, feeling that he was playing a trick on her.

What does "non-toxic" mean?

Venomous snakes, scorpions, centipedes, toads, and geckos.

These things were terrifying to her, yet she wished to make her grandfather eat them.

"Are you kidding me?"

Xu Yuan seemed not to hear her shouting, his gaze fixed on Huang Laoguai.

He simply couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to this woman.

He came to treat Old Huang not because he had forgiven Huang Yiyi, but because of the old man's sake.

"Isn't it just the Five Poisons?"

This is much easier to catch than pubic louse fish.

Old Huang looked completely unconcerned: "I'll send someone to get it right away. How you want to take it is entirely up to you."

"Elder Huang, these Five Poisons are different from the others; I may need to find them myself."

Xu Yuan continued to explain: "If it were an ordinary poison, it would be easy to find."

These five poisons also have certain conditions.

"Are there conditions for finding the Five Poisons?" Old Qin couldn't help but ask, wondering what Xu Yuan was keeping secret.

Xu Yuan continued to explain calmly, "The snake must be from the east, and its birth time is also important."

"The gecko is located in the north and its tail needs to have been cut off more than three times."

The scorpion must be female, preferably one that is about to lay eggs.

The centipede should be a red centipede, and it should be located in the west.

The toads must be at least five years old and live in the south.

"No, are you kidding us?" Huang Yiyi felt increasingly that Xu Yuan was deliberately getting revenge on her as she listened to his outrageous words.

"Are you deliberately making things difficult for us, Xu Yuan?"

Xu Yuan suddenly turned around, staring at Huang Yiyi: "I haven't finished speaking yet. You need to retrieve these things yourself."

"What?"

Previously, Huang Yiyi only thought that Xu Yuan was deliberately playing a trick on her. After hearing such targeted words, Huang Yiyi was 100% certain that Xu Yuan did it on purpose.

He's petty and deliberately trying to trick me.

"You made a wish, you did it on purpose."

"Grandpa, look at him, hurry up and get rid of him, don't listen to his nonsense."

Huang Yiyi looked to her grandfather for help.

Old Huang looked at Xu Yuan with a skeptical expression, his eyes narrowing slightly: "Little guy, are you serious or just joking?"

"If you do as Yiyi said and deliberately try to upset her, that's not very kind of you."

"Mr. Huang, I'm serious."

Xu Yuan looked serious, clearly not joking.

"The five poisons correspond to wood, fire, earth, metal, and water, and also to the five directions."

For a substance to be used in medicine, there are naturally requirements, and the requirements I've outlined are the bare minimum.

"As for having Miss Huang take action herself in the end, it wasn't to tease her."

It's because we need to find a compatible birth chart.

"At present, Ms. Huang's birth date and constitution are the most suitable."

Old Huang kept looking into Xu Yuan's eyes to see if he was lying.

If he really had any tricks up his sleeve, he wouldn't be able to fool this old man.

Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Old Huang nodded: "I believe you."

"grandfather."

Huang Yiyi was about to speak when Huang Laoguai raised his hand to interrupt her: "But Yiyi is fine, she's a woman and she's most afraid of those things."

"Why not choose someone else, someone whose birth chart and constitution are compatible with her, to replace her?"

Xu Yuan shook her head helplessly: "Are there any other unmarried women in the Huang family?"

Old Huang frowned slightly, instantly understanding the meaning behind Xu Yuan's words.

"Must she be a woman from the Huang family?"

"Of course, I'll treat your illness."

"You have blessed your descendants, and they should naturally repay you in return. This is the way of Heaven. Elder Huang understands this better than I do, so I shouldn't need to explain further."

Old Huang's face darkened; he understood the meaning of making a wish.

He was also a member of the Taoist sect, and he understood best what the Way of Heaven was and what cause and effect were.

Cough cough cough...

Old Huang's emotions fluctuated slightly, and he coughed lightly. Brown blood instantly appeared on the white handkerchief covering his mouth.

"grandfather."

Upon seeing this, Huang Yiyi quickly went over to check on Huang Laoguai's condition, her eyes reddening with heartache.

Xu Yuan glanced at the blood on the handkerchief and reminded him in a detached tone, "Elder Huang, it has already begun to devour our internal organs. If this drags on any longer, even if we obtain miraculous medicine, it will be too late to save us."

"Oh my god..."

Huang Yiyi squatted down next to her grandfather, her hands tightly gripping his sleeve, as if she had made up her mind.

"I'm not afraid of anything as long as my grandfather's internal injuries can be healed."

Old Master Huang tried to persuade her not to go, but Huang Yiyi had already made up her mind.

She didn't want to see her grandfather die in front of her, and she certainly couldn't let her cowardice cause his death.

Huang Yiyi stood up and looked at Xu Yuan face to face.

You'd better be telling the truth?

If I find out you've played me, I'll make you pay.

"If you can't cure my grandfather's illness, you can forget about living either."

Xu Yuan replied nonchalantly, "What good would it do me to lie to you?"

"I have a million ways to get revenge on you, why use this one?"

Huang Yiyi snorted coldly and ignored him. She then told Old Qin to prepare manpower and supplies and go outside to find the Five Poisons as Xu Yuan requested.

As Xu Yuan was leaving, he circulated his inner energy and lightly tapped several acupoints on Old Monster Huang's body, temporarily suppressing the corrosive influence of the Yin Poison Qi he had raised.

"You little rascal, you're not going to play a trick on this old man, are you?"

"Don't worry, if you follow my method, I guarantee you'll recover completely."

I won't embarrass my master.
