Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 72 Lifespan and Medical Skills

Chapter 72 Lifespan and Medical Skills

Riverside.

Huang Sixi collapsed by the river.

His head rested on the mud on the shore and his body was soaked in the cold river water.

The Golden Snake Sword was inserted two feet away from his hand.

Just now he was killing people in the Tartar camp until he rushed to the artillery position and stabbed the Regent Duoduo to death. Thus, his plan to undermine the Tartar central government was successfully completed.

However, Duoduo also ignited the cannonball with great determination. If Huang Sixi had not opened the door to break the wall first and traveled through time and space in an instant, he would probably have been dragged down and buried with Duoduo.

Fortunately, there was no danger in the end.

When Huang Sixi emerged from the river, he knew that he had left the world of "The Sword Stained with Royal Blood" and bid farewell to the chaotic world of the late Ming Dynasty.

The path to breaking the wall on the Golden Snake Sword clearly shows that after breaking the wall, one will enter the "Sword Rain" world, but it is not yet known where exactly he will land.

He wanted to get up from the river and check out the surroundings, but he was unable to do so.

At this moment his body was undergoing a wonderful change.

He closed his eyes and his body was motionless, as if he was asleep or unconscious, but in fact he was still conscious.

He could hear the croaking of frogs, smell the earthy smell of river mud, and sense strange sounds coming from all directions.

But he just couldn't wake up, couldn't open his eyes, and couldn't speak.

Because life is being added to his body year by year.

This seemed like a reward for his successful entry into the new arena.

When he was in "The Sword of Blood and Valour", his life span was sixty years. After entering the "Sword Rain" world, his life span was superimposed. The two worlds each had a life span of sixty years, which added up to a total of one hundred and twenty years.

In other words, if he does not suffer serious internal and external injuries and does not die in a feud in the martial arts world, he can live peacefully in the "Sword Rain" martial arts world until he is 115 years old.

He used up five years of his life in "The Sword Stained with Royal Blood", so he had to subtract these five years.

However, the life span did not surge out of his body all at once, but was accumulated year by year. Fortunately, the process did not last too long and would be over after a while of waiting.

But Huang Sixi still thought secretly in his heart that he must not encounter any unexpected changes before the life span was added.

Unfortunately, things did not go as he wished. The more he worried about something, the more likely it would happen.

"Eh? Master, look, there's a person lying on the shore! There's a sword stuck in his body!"

This is the cry of a young boy.

Huang Sixi felt a wave of water moving towards him, probably a ship passing through the river.

that's the truth.

I saw a luxurious pleasure boat docked on the shore several feet away from Huang Sixi.

Two people were standing on the deck of the pleasure boat, looking down at Huang Sixi from above.

On the left is a teenager in his teens, and it was he who just shouted.

The man on the right was over fifty years old, had a goatee, and was dressed in the elegant attire of a scholar.

If anyone in the martial arts world saw him, they would surely stand in awe.

He is nicknamed Li Guishou. He is proficient in medicine, especially in facial disguise.

He could change a person's appearance permanently, and his pleasure boat medical ship became a safe haven for desperate criminals.

All the people in the world who have committed serious crimes, are desperate, are avoiding revenge, or have other reasons, will find Li Guishou to change their appearance.

However, there are two prerequisites for Li Guishou to disguise someone. The first is that a large sum of money must be paid, which is his reward for his actions.

Secondly, he must reveal his life story and explain the reasons and consequences of his disguise. This is done to prevent his enemies from boarding the ship and investigating in the future so that he will not be implicated.

If you are unwilling to meet these two conditions, you will be rudely kicked off the medical ship by Li Guishou.

Although Li Guishou is skilled in medical skills, he is not a kind-hearted person. He only serves desperate criminals and ordinary people cannot see him in their daily lives.

He was introverted and gloomy, never smiling. He saw a man and a sword lying unconscious on the shore, and ordered the young man:
"Tong'er, go get that sword!"

The boy immediately jumped off the bow and landed on the shore.

He trotted to Huang Sixi's side, reached out and pulled out the Golden Snake Sword. He felt that its texture was heavy and the appearance of the sword was also very rare.

It was night time.

The moon is high in the sky.

The Golden Snake Sword emitted a brilliant golden light, and it was obviously a rare treasure.

The young man held the sword and exclaimed: "What a precious sword!"

He turned back to the deck and handed the sword to Li Guishou: "Master, this looks like a magical weapon. Do you know where it came from?"

Li Gui held the sword in his hand and looked at it. The blade was like a coiled golden snake. Even though he was used to seeing precious treasures, he was still amazed by this sword: "I have never seen it before, nor have I ever heard of it! This sword should be the first time it has appeared in the martial arts world. Go and take a look at that man and see if he has any special tokens on him!"

He wanted to know Huang Sixi's identity.

The young man got off the boat again. When he came to Huang Sixi, he squatted down and searched quickly.

Huang Sixi noticed the young man approaching and wanted to shout to stop him, but he couldn't open his mouth. However, his internal energy was already circulating in his body, so he guarded the gate tightly.

The young man was weak and pushed Huang Sixi once, but when he saw that he couldn't move him, he ignored him.

After a while, the young man took out the leader's iron sword and sheepskin bag from Huang Sixi's waist.

"Master, he has a dagger on him, shining coldly, it must be a precious blade!"

"Did he carry any token or document?"

"He had a leather bag with a lot of stuff in it! Why, there was a token, a beggar's alms bowl, a few wooden medicine bottles, and nothing else!"

"bring here!"

"Master, wait a moment. I will take his belt off. It is full of pockets. It should contain other treasures!"

The boy never thought of saving anyone.

He had encountered many similar incidents before. Every time he found a quack like Huang Sixi whose background was unknown, he would first search his personal belongings, hand him over to his master to identify his identity, and then decide whether to save him or kill him based on his identity and background.

However, the young man's behavior was clumsy and he was not careful when taking off Huang Sixi's belt, and his finger was pricked by a jade bee needle left in the bag.

He cried out "Ah!" and suddenly pulled his hand back.

He thought Huang Sixi had woken up and was secretly plotting against him.

He quickly stood up and backed away: "Master, this guy is stabbing me with a needle!"

After saying that, he ran back to the bow and never dared to touch the belt again.

Li Guishou criticized him, "Master, how many times have I told you that you should be careful and steady when taking things? You are so impatient. How can you wield a medical knife in the future?"

"Disciple knows his mistake!"

The young man presented the dagger and the sheepskin bag. Li Guishou first looked at the dagger and tried it a few times: "This is a short weapon made of black iron, it can cut iron like mud!"

He opened the bag again and took out the token. He saw the words "Jiang Long" written on it. He couldn't help wondering: "There is no sect or gang in the martial arts world named "Jiang Long". Could this be the name of this person? I have never heard of it."

While he was lost in thought, the young man suddenly fell down, rolling on the deck and wailing.

"Itchy! It itches so much! Master, the needle is poisonous..."

The boy scratched his face and flesh, and soon blood marks appeared, followed by torn skin and flesh.

Li Guishou frowned and quickly pressed the boy's Tianchi acupoint to stop him from hurting himself. Then he took out a pill and gave it to him to try to suppress the poison.

But the boy's face was covered with lumps of flesh and the poison was still spreading.

Li Guishou knew that the poison was very strong, so he immediately searched the sheepskin bag. According to his previous experience, those who poisoned others often carried an antidote.

He opened all the wooden bottles in the bag, sniffed them one by one, and commented to himself: "This bottle of rouge smells pungent, like poison, this bottle of grease is a wound medicine, this bottle of yellow mud is soft and sticky, its purpose is unknown, this bottle is honey, it should be a healing tonic, which bottle is the antidote?"

No matter how skilled Li Guishou's medical skills were, he couldn't guess what kind of poison was on the Jade Bee Needle.

Therefore, he did not dare to give the boy the bottles of substances in the sheepskin bag at random. If he took the wrong thing, he might die.

However, this matter is not difficult to handle. The person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. Li Guishou can directly ask Huang Sixi for the antidote through torture.

He knew that the two swords Huang Sixi carried were both magical weapons and he must be a very skilled martial artist, so he did not approach Huang Sixi rashly.

He opened the knife bag at his waist and took out a flying knife, which was also the medical knife he used for disguise in his daily life. He aimed at the acupuncture points on Huang Sixi's chest and ribs and threw it over.

If this knife hits the target, it will not only be able to hit acupoints and immobilize the body, but also allow the flying knife to pierce between Huang Sixi's ribs, curbing the circulation of Huang Sixi's internal energy, which is equivalent to nailing his scapula.

The result surprised Li Guishou. The flying knife hit Huang Sixi's chest and bounced off automatically. With a "puff" sound, the blade fell into the water.

"what?"

Li Guishou subconsciously thought that Huang Sixi had practiced some miraculous skills to protect his body.

But he thought about it and realized: "This man should be wearing a self-defense armor. He has the ability to forge a snake sword and an iron dagger, so it shouldn't be difficult for him to weave a armor."

His eyes rolled and a plan came to his mind. He opened the acupuncture needle bag at his waist and pulled out a long needle. The needle was laced with a deadly poison, almost as strong as the blood bag on the boy's body.

He planned to give Huang Sixi a taste of his own medicine and use a deadly poison to subdue him, so he aimed at Huang Sixi's face and prepared to inject him.

But his behavior has caused Huang Sixi to be seriously alert.

As his life span was coming to an end, his consciousness became clearer and his physical condition began to recover.

His fingers suddenly moved, grabbing the flying knife that had just fallen into the water. He tilted his body, and with his other palm, he gathered all his internal strength and slapped the surface of the river.

The water waves instantly splashed several feet high, forming a water wall between him and the pleasure boat.

Seeing him suddenly get angry, Li Guishou laughed coldly: "You are still very young to pretend in front of me!"

After saying that, he reached for the knife bag and held a flying knife in each hand.

Unexpectedly, Huang Sixi's move was so swift that as soon as the water wall was formed, he spun on the spot and used the "Flying Fairy from the Sky". The flying knife penetrated the water wall and stabbed steadily into Li Guishou's eye socket.

Li Guishou collapsed backwards with his eyes wide open, dying with his eyes open. He had not expected that his opponent had such strong martial arts skills and such superb flying knife skills.

When the water wall receded, Huang Sixi still looked unhappy. He had just arrived here, but had experienced a lot of twists and turns. The beginning was not very smooth.

He thought to himself: "If I had known that my life span would be increased when I first entered the Sword Rain world, I would have made sufficient preparations! But the broken wall door does not provide any direction, and the place where I land is completely random. People's hearts are different, so who knows what kind of people I will meet!"

Huang Sixi possesses a magical weapon. If anyone in the martial arts world saw him, they would probably want to get their hands on it.

There is no good solution to this problem at the moment.

Anyway, he has just entered the world of "Sword Rain" and he still has a long time to settle down. It won't be too late to think of a safe strategy after he finds the wall-breaking thing in "Sword Rain" in the future.

Thinking of this, he stepped out of the river and onto the deck of the pleasure boat.

The boy died on the bow of the ship due to severe poisoning.

Huang Sixi took back his sheepskin bag, opened the wooden bottle containing corpse-dissolving powder, and sprinkled it on the bodies of Li Guishou and the boy.

When the two corpses disappeared without a trace, a knife bag, a needle bag and a flying knife with knife marks flashing on it were left at the scene.

Huang Sixi picked up the two bags and counted them, finding that there were more than ten coins in each.

He nodded in surprise, thinking, "I used up all my killing knife and jade bee needles when I assassinated the Tartar nobles earlier. This old man's belongings just made up for my losses. What a coincidence! But who is this old man? Not only is he good at using short knives, but he also knows how to control needles?"

He then picked up the flying knife with the flash pattern, which had just killed Li Guishou and revealed Li Guishou's martial arts skills.

Huang Sixi took a closer look and discovered that the martial arts was actually a set of medical skills.

Only then did he know the identity of Li Guishou.

"This old man is actually the plastic surgery expert Li Guishou?"

When Huang Sixi was in Shengjing, he inherited the disguise technique from a desperado, and he still carries the yellow mud with him.

However, this kind of disguise is only a temporary change of appearance and is most afraid of rain. During the disguise, once the face is stained by rain, the disguise will be exposed.

The key is that the similarity cannot be absolutely realistic.

But Li Guishou's disguise technique does not have this flaw.

Huang Sixi can use surgery to disguise himself as anyone.

If there is any drawback to Li Guishou's disguise technique, it is that each disguise takes too long.

The Flying Knife Secret Method records the medical skills that Li Guishou learned throughout his life, including the art of disguise, which is clearly introduced there.

The disguise technique is to first use the Yunnan and Dian poisonous insects, put them into the nasal cavity, use medicine to guide them, and let the insects feed on the facial bones. After the bones are eaten, the skin of the face is cut open, and with the help of a golden anvil, it is sutured along the texture. After resting for three months, the work is done.

It will take about three months to succeed.

Moreover, if you want to restore your appearance after it changes, you must undergo surgery again.

After Huang Sixi inherited all of Li Guishou's medical skills, he was not very happy: "This method of disguise is actually suitable for others, but it is inconvenient for me to use it myself. It is really better to use yellow mud skin, which is more convenient."

However, Li Guishou is not only proficient in disguise, but also good at suturing external injuries and acupuncture for internal injuries.

Huang Sixi had been involved in a fierce battle in the Tartar camp earlier and had been hit in the arm by a bird gun. He had also been soaking in the river for so long that the wound was excruciatingly painful.

He returned to the cabin, found Li Guishou's medical box, took out medicines, bandages and utensils, and began to treat the wound.

While reminiscing about the plot of "Sword Rain" Jianghu.

He knew that Li Guishou was an important figure, had performed plastic surgery on the assassin Xiyu, and knew Xiyu's secluded whereabouts.

The body of Rama, who was famous in "Sword Rain", was half taken away by the drizzle.

When Huang Sixi was in the martial arts world of "The Sword Stained with Royal Blood", his famous Golden Snake Sword was a weapon that could break through walls.

He had reason to believe that the object that broke the wall in "Sword Rain" was most likely related to Rama's remains.

Therefore, Huang Sixi needs to find Xiyu and Rama's remains to confirm his guess.
