Daqin: Zulong's Traveling Frog

Chapter 325 Shaking the Western Regions
You Long's name really shocked the Western Regions, and the soldiers who surrounded him immediately froze on the spot, looking at Xiao Yang's waist in unison, the long knife was faintly emitting a dark red luster.

The leading sergeant asked awkwardly: "Is this the legendary Jade Cutting Knife that cuts gold and breaks jade?"

Xiao Yang said in a deep voice: "That's right, this is the jade cutting knife. Where is Mrs. Zhang?"

The sergeant said: "It's right in front, just turn left at the first intersection."

Xiao Yang said: "Thank you."

Tima walked slowly, boldly passing through the sergeants.There were about [-] sergeants present, all staring at him blankly, no one came forward to interrogate and stop him.

As soon as I arrived at the first intersection, I smelled a strong smell of herbs.Following the smell, they came to a house with flickering fire. Xiao Yang quietly slipped under the window and opened the window a crack - he saw a brazier in the center of the room, a pot full of charcoal burning brightly, and a ceramic pot on the brazier. The medicine jar is constantly steaming out.

A middle-aged man was busy picking dried herbs in the dustpan in the corner of the room, probably that doctor.

Xiao Yang stepped forward to knock on the door and called, "Is Doctor Zhang there?"

After a while, the middle-aged man came to open the door and said impatiently: "Didn't you see the sign on the door? I won't see a doctor today. You go back first and come back tomorrow."

Xiao Yang said: "I am seriously ill."

Doctor Zhang said: "It's not okay if you have an emergency. I'm about to go into the palace to deliver medicine to His Majesty the King."

Xiao Yang said: "That's great. I have something to go to the palace to meet His Majesty the King. Please ask Doctor Zhang to take me with him." He pulled out a long knife and pressed it against Doctor Zhang's chest, forcing him to retreat. inside the house.

Doctor Zhang was so frightened that his teeth chattered and he asked in a trembling voice, "You... who are you? What do you want to do?"

Xiao Yang said: "I just want to see King Cheshi."

Doctor Zhang heard his accent and wondered: "Are you from the Central Plains? I am also from the Central Plains..."

Xiao Yang said: "Then we can be considered from the same country. Your plot to kill King Cheshi has been made known to me. If you want to survive, take me to see the king. Now you are the doctor, and this Mr. Laughter is you Senior brother, your medical skills are even better than yours, so let me pretend to be your medicine boy."

He smiled and said: "Sir, I am only proficient in magic, not medical skills."

Xiao Yang said: "The matter is urgent, so we have to make do with it first. Doctor Zhang, what do you think?"

With a wave of the knife, a copper stove for pounding medicine on the table was split in half.

Dr. Zhang had never seen such a sharp weapon before, his face was ashen with fright, his whole body was shaking like chaff, and he stammered: "Yes... yes... Mr. Xiao has excellent medical skills. Then... what about after entering the palace? "

Xiao Yang said: "As long as you take us into the palace, I will be able to handle the rest of the matter."

After collecting the jade cutting knife, he walked over to pick up the medicine jar and said, "Let's go."

Doctor Zhang said: "This medicine...the medicine is useless..."

Xiao Yang said: "How do you know it's useless? Oh, yes, you put poison in it, didn't you? But don't worry, as long as you take us into the palace, you promise to leave Che Shi from now on and never harm anyone again. I won't expose your conspiracy, how about it?"

Doctor Zhang wondered how the other party would know about such a secret matter of poisoning the medicine soup, but seeing the other party's martial arts is amazing, he didn't dare to ask more questions, so he had no choice but to obey, raised a lantern, and led the two to the palace come.

Cheshi Palace is far less grand than the Central Plains Palace, and entering the palace was extremely smooth.

Doctor Zhang is a new doctor hired by the palace, recently he has been in and out of the palace frequently, the guards treated him very politely, they didn't even search for Xiao Xiaosheng and Xiao Yang.

Two guards led the three of them through the corridor to the outside of the king's bedroom.The hall was brightly lit, as bright as day, but it was silent, and there were low-pitched panting sounds from time to time.

The guard went in to report, and rushed out after a while to invite the three of them in.

There is a couch at the top of the hall, and an old man who is nearly sixty years old is leaning on the couch, it is King Cheshi Libi.He looked old, with a sallow complexion, sunken eyes, the left eye was blind, and only one chaotic right eye remained, squinting to look at a pillar.

Doctor Zhang bowed to the king and said, "Your Majesty the King!"

Libi turned his head and said: "Doctor Zhang is here just in time. I am feeling suffocated and very uncomfortable. Please bring me the medicine as soon as possible."

Doctor Zhang turned his head to look at Xiao Yang, not knowing what to do.Seeing his face in surprise, she couldn't help being taken aback, and asked, "You... who are you?"

Before he finished speaking, there was a violent cough.Xiao Yang hurriedly handed the medicine jar to the maid aside and said: "I am Doctor Zhang's medicine boy. Maybe there is a way to relieve the cough. Please allow me to give it a try."

Libi shook his hands into fists and coughed, unable to speak.Xiao Yang stepped forward, opened the king's clothes, squatted down, and put his fingers on the Yufu and Oruzhong points under the collarbone of his chest.

The palace guards and maids were all horrified when they saw that this strange man was so bold and dared to step forward and attack the king at will.But he claimed to be able to cure diseases. The king showed no objection, and they were unable to stop him. They had to stand aside and watch his every move.

Xiao Yang's fingers gradually strengthened.He is a martial arts practitioner and has some understanding of the acupoints of the human body. He knows that the Yufu and Zhongliang points are where the essence of the internal organs is infused, and they are also important points for treating asthma.

It seems that the old king is just suffering from severe asthma. As long as he massages these two acupoints, he can clear the hilum of the lungs. Although the disease cannot be fundamentally cured, it can immediately relieve cough and phlegm.

Guo saw that Libi's cough gradually stopped, her breath calmed down, and she slowly sat up straight.

The old king had been suffering from chronic diseases for many years. In the past, once he got sick, he always coughed for a long time, and finally he was exhausted and even passed out. Che Shi and famous doctors were helpless.

People from the Western Regions didn't understand the science of meridians and acupuncture points at all. Seeing that Xiao Yang easily stopped coughing by just touching the king's body without using medicinal soup, they thought he was performing some kind of magic, so they couldn't help but look at each other.

The head of the guard Kanyari gave a wink, signaling the guards to be on guard secretly.

Xiao Yang put his hand on the Tiantu point on the king's neck again, and his breath was suddenly blocked. He felt a hot stream of heat rushing up from his chest, but it was blocked by a foreign object in his throat. Uncomfortable and suffocated, his hands He tugged at his throat in vain, wishing he could tear the throat open immediately.

Kanyari, the head of the guard, stepped forward and shouted: "What are you doing? Get back quickly!"

Turning around, he saw the Taoist priest Xiaoxiaosheng revealing a rod-shaped hard object under his Taoist robe, which was clearly a weapon, and he was even more frightened, shouting: "Come on, quickly take these three people down!"

All the guards gathered around them, cut off the arms of Doctor Zhang and Xiaoxiaosheng, and dragged them aside.

Xiaoxiao said angrily: "Is this how you treat the doctor who came to treat your king?" The guard found the jade knife from under his Taoist robe, and said: "What is this? You brought weapons into the palace privately. Assassinate His Majesty the King."

Xiao Xiao hurriedly pouted at Xiao Yang, and argued: "This is not my weapon, he insisted on hiding it on me."

The accident happened suddenly, but Xiao Yang still pressed Libi's acupuncture point with his hands. The guard who came forward was afraid that he would hurt the king, so he didn't dare to be violent for a while, and only kept calling him to let go, but he seemed to have never heard of it.Kanyali, the captain of the guard, personally came to take Xiao Yang's arm.

Xiao Yang shouted in a deep voice: "Back off! Whoever dares to step forward, I will kill the old king."

Kanyari was stunned for a while, seeing that the old king had difficulty breathing, his cheeks were flushed, and his mouth was "wheezing and wheezing". The situation was very critical, so he ordered the guards to drag Dr. Zhang and Xiaoxiaosheng to the hall to kneel down and take the knife holder. On their necks, they shouted: "If you don't let go of the king, I will kill your companion."

Dr. Zhang was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, unable to utter a word of begging for mercy, and a large piece of his crotch was still wet.Xiao Xiaosheng yelled: "Hey, sir, I'm going to lose my head, you boy still don't let go of the king?"

Seeing Xiao Yang's response, Kanyali nodded.The guard raised his knife, and the wind of the knife flashed past. Xiaoxiaosheng screamed, but what fell was Doctor Zhang's head.
