The Genius Mage - Chapter 361
Chapter 361: Valley Master Is Sick
Hearing this, Audrey felt a chill in her heart.
The outside world had never heard that the valley master of Herb King Valley was sick. Not only the outside world, but even if she stayed in Herb King Valley, she had only found out recently. It was obvious that the news had not spread out.
“Yeah, I don’t know what kind of strange illness he has. All the medicine has been used, but it’s still useless.” The other person immediately echoed. From the helpless tone of the two, Audrey could imagine how serious the Valley Master’s illness was.
There were many people who were good at using medicine in the Herb King Valley. There was definitely no shortage of people with strong medical skills.
Even so, they were still unable to cure the Valley Master’s illness. It was really strange. Audrey sighed in her heart.
Just as she was about to turn around and leave, the disciple who had spoken first spoke again. “Although the Valley Master has used almost all the medicinal herbs in the past half a year and hasn’t improved much, it’s not like there’s no hope.”
“What hope?”
“The Sky Demon Herb, which only grows once every ten years, is about to grow. It’s said that the Sky Demon Herb has a chance of bringing people back from the dead. The Valley Master is waiting for the Sky Demon Herb. I think only the sky demon grass can save the Valley Master,” the person explained.
Hearing this, Audrey was surprised, but at the same time, she also dispelled the doubts in her heart.
No wonder Moka had such a big reaction when the Sky Demon Herb was mentioned. It turned out that the Sky Demon Herb had to be left for the Valley Master to save. That was really unfortunate. The people from the Carol Association also needed the Sky Demon Herb to save their lives.
Audrey did not care who the herb saved in the end. However, she needed the Sky Demon Herb to lure out the people of the Carol Association. It would be best if she could use it as a bargaining chip to find out more about the Carol Association.
However, at the moment, the people of the Herb King Valley would definitely not give out the Sky Demon Herb.
Unless… the Valley Master no longer needed the Sky Demon Herb.
This bold idea suddenly appeared in Audrey’s mind. She looked at the Valley Master’s room without any clear meaning, and a complicated look flashed across her eyes.
Now, it was naturally not the time to go in and check on the Valley Master’s situation. However, Audrey thought that she must find an opportunity to go in and take a look.
After listening to the words of her two disciples, Audrey quietly left and returned to her residence. She informed her three teammates of the situation.
“No wonder they aren’t willing to give us the Sky Demon Herb.” Klein came to a sudden realization and said helplessly, “Then we won’t be able to get the Sky Demon Herb.”
“I’m not sure. I’ll look for an opportunity to check on the Valley Master’s situation. Perhaps we might not be able to save him with the Sky Demon Herb.” Audrey thought for a moment and said meaningfully.
The three teammates did not quite understand what Audrey meant. There were so many divine doctors in Herb King Valley, but they could not save the Valley Master. Could there be another way?
However, seeing that Audrey did not want to continue, the three of them did not ask further.
In the next few days, Audrey would go to the Valley Master’s room from time to time to keep an eye on him. There were many people guarding outside the room, so she had no way to sneak in.
However, Audrey gradually realized that every day when the Valley Master was on his lunch break, there was no one watching outside. Everyone seemed to be gathering herbs or brewing medicine for the Valley Master.
Taking advantage of this gap, Audrey directly slipped into the Valley Master’s room through the window.
On the bed not far away lay an old man. Perhaps due to his illness, the Valley Master’s complexion was extremely bad. His face was sallow, and his lips were pale.
Although Audrey’s medical skills were inferior to those of the Herb King Valley, she had more or less learned some methods to save people in her previous life. She was curious about the illness that could render the entire Herb King Valley helpless.
Very soon, Audrey approached the Valley Master. Her eyes scanned her surroundings before she extended her hand to check the Valley Master’s pulse.
Judging from the pulse, the Valley Master seemed to have a stagnant bloodline. Audrey could not say what illness it was, but it was definitely not poisoning. However, when she approached the Valley Master, Audrey could faintly smell the scent of purplish-blue leaves on his body.
Purplish-blue leaves were just ordinary herbs. However, if they were eaten together with the fire spirit fruit, it would make people feel weak all over as if they were sick.
However, this was only a normal situation where the two of them countered each other. They would recover in a few days.
However, most people would think that they were sick and start taking medicinal soup. At this moment, no matter what kind of medicinal soup they took, it would accumulate toxins in their bodies and aggravate their illness.
As the Valley Master of Herb King Valley, she often tested the medicine with her own body. It was not strange to smell the scent of the purple and blue leaves on his body. However, when she thought about how special the purple and blue leaves were, Audrey could not help but have other thoughts.
If the Valley Master had really eaten the purple and blue leaves and the fire spirit fruit, it was not impossible for the current situation to be caused.
However, even she knew that the two of them countered each other, so how could the Valley Master not know?
Audrey could not figure it out for a moment. She could only temporarily determine if the Valley Master had been poisoned. It was very simple. All she needed to do was to test the Valley Master’s blood.
Audrey took out a silver needle from somewhere and pricked the Valley Master’s finger carefully. She took out some blood and was about to verify it when the Valley Master suddenly woke up.
