the enlightener says

And Zhou Gongjin searched among them, and also found the blue porcelain bottle. It can be seen that the patterns drawn on it are unique and must be very important.

When he returned to the dark room again, he found that Qiao Feifan had already started pulling out the arrow for Gongsunli. Although she had cut off the parts on both sides, the part that was deeply embedded in the flesh and blood was still stuck in it. Pulling it out may even endanger Gongsunli's life.

But Qiao Feifan, who was holding the pliers, moved extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had already pulled out the arrow from it. The rough shaft of the arrow was tearing flesh and blood. Blood gushes out like spring water.

"Give me the bottle!" Qiao Feifan shouted.

Zhou Gongjin subconsciously threw the porcelain bottle over, and as Qiao Feifan took the porcelain bottle, he poured it almost violently into the wound, and part of the medicine powder even fell directly into the bathtub, like a ball of golden cotton wool Gradually spread out.

After that, Qiao Feifan even used several silver needles to directly seal some of Gongsunli's blood vessels. Seeing that the blood from the wound gradually stopped, he breathed a sigh of relief and began to connect the broken bones.

After all the busy work, she was already sweating profusely. She looked at the almost empty medicine bottle again during the break, and sighed with some distress.

"Let her soak for a while. This is the medicine that Master left for me. It can hang people's lives. I will prepare some medicine to get rid of the poison on her body later. I hope she can survive with her own energy and blood." Bar."

"Thank you very much." Zhou Gongjin stepped forward, put one hand on Qiao Feifan's shoulder, and comforted in a low voice: "It's okay, the medicine is gone, just refill it. I'll go to the prime minister and ask him to give it to you." Open the warehouse, there are a lot of medicinal materials, and it is said that there are some rare medicinal pills."

"It's okay. Keeping the medicine is meant to save people. Even if the master is here, he will use it." Qiao Feifan felt the temperature on his shoulders and said with a cute smile.

Zhou Gongjin also smiled. The subordinates beside her were all the people she trusted the most, and she didn't shy away from it. She directly used some strength to let the shy Qiao Feifan lean on her: "In this case, when will she be able to do so?" Wake up? It's... the kind that can speak."

He suddenly paused, as if he felt that he was being cruel to ask like this now, but the matter was of great importance, so he continued to say: "Jianye hides a force, I don't know their purpose, but it can't be a good thing if you think about it. And Miss Gongsun is the most important clue right now, if it wasn't for this, I wouldn't even think of using this dark room."

"But... I don't know either."

"do not know?"

"An ordinary person would have died with this kind of injury. Even if I can save her life, I can't guarantee that she will wake up in a certain period of time." Qiao Feifan looked distressed, and tried to explain, "She may die in a few days. I will wake up after a while, maybe ten days later... Even, it is not impossible to last for several years, I have seen a wounded person with Master before, and he has been like a living dead since he fell into a coma. "

This is by no means good news, but Zhou Gongjin also believed that Qiao Feifan had absolutely no secrets, so he could only stare at Qiao Feifan for a long time, then sighed, and said: "I thought it was a good thing, but now it seems that it is still not what I think." It's that simple."

Knowing Zhou Gongjin's difficulties, Qiao Feifan said in a low voice, "I will try my best to stay and take care of it. It should be of some help."

"Okay, if you need anything, send someone to report to me."

"I know."

"By the way, who undid her clothes?"

"...Huh? Well, that's a very long story, I need some time to tell you in detail..."

7 Chapter Sixty

The length of a story often depends on the storyteller.

And while Zhou Gongjin was a little busy making up a story in his mind, someone was also telling a story to others, but not with words, but with facts.

Inside the marching tent, the spears were as white as snow, reflecting Sun Yi's slightly trembling eyebrows, and a pair of deep black pupils filled with complex expressions, shocking, puzzled, unwilling, and self-deprecating...

It was not until a long time later that he finally calmed down all his emotions and turned himself back into the highly respected and powerful Inspector, who stubbornly pressed against the ground and stood up stiffly.

Seeing Sun Yi's movements, the sergeant at the side immediately wanted to step forward to suppress him, but under the slight wave of that clean hand, the sergeant bowed his head vigorously and backed away.

"Master Sun is so courageous. You know that I have already broken Huang Hansheng's army, but you still dare to lead troops to support at this time. Although you failed in the end, this courage is enough to make me admire."

Gao Changgong, who was sitting in front of him, had a smile on his face, but he didn't see much of the sarcasm. On the contrary, he spoke in a calm tone, as if he was talking to an old friend.

In fact, the two were indeed old friends in the trenches.

Although Sun Yi seldom appeared in the imperial court in Jingwuzhong, it was because he was always ordered to do business outside, otherwise he would not have been able to become the governor in his thirties, leading the imperial court to inspect various places. square.

And during the Great War of Tang State's Southern Invasion that year, he also delivered food and grass for Huang Hansheng, and ensured the military supplies of a hundred thousand troops with one man's ingenuity. Only then did the Tang army fall into a quagmire in the territory of Jingwu, and finally ran out of food and grass and lost.

It can be said that without Sun Yi in that battle, the outcome would still be unpredictable.

This time, he was also ordered by the imperial court to organize the county soldiers from the surrounding counties to escort a large amount of food and grass. The trip was delayed.

This delay caused him to be caught by Gao Changgong, and the [-] county soldiers were defeated almost without any suspense in front of Gao Changgong's [-] tiger and wolf troops, so he became a prisoner.

With his feet firmly on the ground again, Sun Yi finally regained some dignity. When facing Gao Changgong, he even patted the dirt on his robe with both hands, once again showing the grace of his gentry origin.

"At the beginning when I heard the news of the general's rebellion, I thought it was just a rumor or someone deliberately spread rumors, but today I saw it with my own eyes, but I have to believe it. But what I don't understand is what the general intends to do like this ? Don’t say that you are really for that little country leader, he is just a child, unable to shoulder the rise and fall of a huge country.”

The two deep grooves on both sides of Sun Yi's nose made him look a bit bleak, but his thick male voice and straight waist made him show no weakness in front of Gao Changgong.

"I remember that your cousin, Sun Ji'an, also supported the ruler in taking over the power." Facing Sun Yi's unflinching look, Gao Changgong remained calm, and his voice was as soft as a wisp of catkins.

"My cousin supports the laws of the country, not the king." Sun Yi said calmly, "He just doesn't want to see the prime minister acting arbitrarily and playing with Jing Wu in his hands. I think the best thing for Jing Wu is now. Even if the prime minister is still the prime minister, then everything can continue as usual, and the people will naturally be stable. But whether it is his idea or my idea, it is only for the long-term continuation of Jingwu."

Gao Changgong shook his head with some pity, and said, "That is to say, it is impossible for you to stand with me?"

"It's absolutely impossible." Sun Yi said coldly, "I would like to persuade the general not to help the tyrant. Sun Tong is just a fool spoiled by the old people, and he..."

He turned his eyes to Sun Qing who was standing aside, looking at this nephew of the same clan, he was both gratified and heartbroken. He was gratified that he now has such a cultivation base, which is enough to stand out among young talents in the world, and What hurts my heart is that this nephew seems to never understand what these people think in their hearts.

"I always think that although the old man is wise, he can only be a kind elder, not a good teacher." This is the simplest and most direct evaluation of Sun Yi, and Sun Qing, who was standing by, heard such an evaluation After that, his complexion changed slightly, and some coldness appeared in his eyes.

Sun Yi waved his sleeve suddenly, turned his eyes to Gao Changgong and said loudly: "The general should be my loyal minister and good general of Jingwu, now it's too late to turn around, otherwise the reputation of the whole life will be ruined, how can your father and the Gao family stand? I heard that old man Gao knelt down alone outside the palace gate on the day he found out about your rebellion, could it be that the general didn't even understand his own old father?"

If there is anyone in this world who can arouse Gao Changgong's emotions, Gao Cheng must be one of them. Sun Yi will bring up the matter of Gao Cheng kneeling outside the palace gate that day.

But soon, he was disappointed.

Gao Changgong's expression didn't change at all, as if he had completely abandoned those emotions, even the light in his pupils didn't tremble in the slightest.

As a son of man, how could he do such a thing?

"Since that's the case, please let the general deal with it as you like." Sun Yi turned his eyes and closed them with some pain, but his body was still straight and refused to bend.

Gao Changgong sat on the chair with great interest, and after a while, he finally stood up and said, "Then..."

"General!" At this moment, a guard outside the big tent walked in quickly, knelt down on one knee and saluted Gao Changgong, "Someone suddenly came outside the barracks and said he wanted to see you."

Sun Qing was originally a little unhappy because of being poked by Sun Yi. Hearing this, he immediately reprimanded: "What kind of thing is this, and it is worth coming here to report? You can deal with it yourself."

"But..." The reprimanded guard lowered his head slightly, with some hesitation on his face, "Although that person is wearing a hood, my subordinates can tell that she is...General Mulan."

After the voice fell, the whole big tent suddenly fell silent, as if even the sound of a needle falling on the ground could be heard.

The city of Ye was built.

The setting sun is slowly sinking among the mountains, and the low clouds are pressing heavily on the top of the city.

The wooden wheel of the ballista was constantly rolling, and then hit a step that was not too high. Everyone shouted and shouted, while pushing the ballista, trying to put it where it should be placed.

"One! Two! Three!" As the sergeants shouted in unison for the third time, the ballista weighing hundreds of kilograms was finally pushed into the buckle amidst the rattle of the machine, and then Huang Yao Insert the bolt very quickly, adjust the direction of the ballista, try to turn the mechanism, and pull the rigid bowstring.

"Be careful, these ballistas are newly made this year, and the mechanism rotation is still a bit jerky, so don't break the bowstring." The craftsman on the side saw Huang Yao's movements so fast, and said with a little worry.

"It doesn't matter. I have used a lot of crossbows in the frontier army in the past few years, and the usage of this one has not changed much. Speaking of it, the imperial court is really stingy. It has only changed [-]% over the years. There are more than a dozen seats." Huang Yao said with a smile.

"The general came from the frontier army?" The craftsman didn't know Huang Yao, but he was quite relieved to hear the answer.

In recent years, only the frontier soldiers have used these large utensils most frequently by the imperial court.Although Tang and Jingwu seem to be peaceful these years, border frictions always occur from time to time, and big killers like ballistas will show up from time to time to show their prestige.

While speaking, Huang Yao familiarized himself with the crossbow, aimed at a sandy place, took a deep breath, and pulled the trigger. The huge crossbow suddenly shot out with a sharp whistling sound, and shot fiercely across a distance of tens of feet. Into the yellow land, set off billowing dust.

Seeing that the power of the ballista has not diminished in the past, the sergeants shouted "Hello" in unison, and the faces of each of them were full of fiery blood.

"It's a bit raw, just find some suet and wipe it on, it's very useful." Huang Yao wiped the sweat from his forehead, grinned at the craftsman, then waved his hand, and said to the sergeants, "Eat first , I will be busy in a while."

The sergeants responded with a bang, and after the chant ended, they began to seize the seats on the steps, took out cold buns and sauced meat, and began to eat them.

Chapter 761 Time

Huang Yao was not in a hurry to rest, but after reconfirming that there was no problem with the ballista, he slowly walked down the steps, stood on the top of the city and squinted his eyes looking into the distance.

He was familiar with such a scene, and the darkness that swept back once again broke free from the chains, and began to touch every corner of his limbs.

And in the darkness, every place seems to be hiding the enemy's traces, the jungle, the stone pile... Maybe it's just a slack, and there will be a cold arrow directly biting the top of the city along the wind.

The walls of Jianye City are very high.

But it can't stop the experienced tiger and wolf teacher.

Huang Yao, who was dressed in military uniform, looked up at the dark clouds, as if he saw tens of thousands of armored soldiers rushing up the city wall like a flood, and the huge head bumps slammed on the city gate, stones stained with fierce kerosene Then it crossed the sky and fell towards the city like a meteor.

"When will it start?" Huang Yao whispered this question that many people in Jianye City wanted to ask.

Looking carefully, there is a small dot like a grain of rice in the distance that keeps getting bigger and bigger, Huang Yao's eyes also narrowed accordingly.

Vaguely, he could see the silhouettes of two people. The one on the left was tall and tall, while the one on the right was weak as if he had a disease. He could only be supported by the one on the left. Every step was extremely difficult. .

When the two of them were about to reach the top of the wall, Huang Yao saw one of their faces clearly, and suddenly let out a strange cry, and then hurriedly ran down the steps down the top of the wall.

"Master Sun Yi!" Huang Yao started to shout just as he ran out of the city gate.

That's right, it was Sun Yi who was walking towards the gate of the city at this moment, but it was far from the Qi Yuxuan when Huang Yao saw him last time. Not only was he limping, but the expression on his face It has completely collapsed, with dim eyes, drooping eyebrows, and a listless look.

Huang Yao stepped forward, grabbed Sun Yi's other arm as soon as he stretched out his hand, and asked with concern, "What happened?"

"Go to a medical officer. He has suffered some internal injuries. Although it is not serious, it will hurt the root if not treated in time." Before Sun Yi could speak, the tall man wearing a hood had already answered for Sun Yi.

Huang Yao heard the voice a little familiar, and after looking it over carefully, he said in astonishment: "Mu...General Lan? Why are you? What happened?"

"Of course it's me." The moment Huang Yao lifted the hood, what appeared in front of Huang Yao was a man with a bun, but this was exactly Mulan's style, and Huang Yao was all too familiar with that resolute face.

Unexpectedly, the successor of the Mu family, who was supposed to be the supreme commander of the Great Wall garrison, suddenly appeared in front of him, which made him a little overwhelmed.

Mulan looked at Huang Yao's expression, smiled slightly and said, "Don't yell loudly, it's not convenient for me to show up in Jianye at this time, otherwise the Great Wall will be involved in these things. As for what happened, I will tell you later." Some of it you'll know."

"Understood." Huang Yao nodded immediately, and also understood Mulan's concerns, "I will arrange a carriage for you, and I will send you directly to the palace to meet the prime minister in the name of the school affairs office. The big boss in the middle is better."

"Okay." Mulan's answer was very concise, and then she walked towards the city with Sun Yi again.

When night fell, Sun Qing walked out of the barracks, walked all the way to a pine tree along the path, looked at the black-robed man in the shadows and said, "Why don't you kill him?"

The black-robed man still had the same lifeless look, and asked without any anger or anger: "General Sun is talking about General Mulan, or Sun Yi?"

"The latter." Sun Qing was not arrogant enough to think that Mulan was so easy to kill. In fact, the Sun family had made some judgments on the female general of the Mu family. Some people even thought that Mulan might be stronger than Xiang Chu. How could such a person be so easy to kill?

The black-robed man nodded, and some black smoke wafted slightly from his body: "Actually, whether it is General Mulan or Sun Yi, I always have the same answer. General Mulan's importance to the general is self-evident, and when he is present, the general It is impossible for the general to listen to me."

Sun Qing frowned: "You once said that the mind-taking has been completed, why is there such a situation?"

"Because he is a great general." The black-robed man took it for granted, "It is not certain what will happen to a master who has approached the realm of a saint. From the moment General Mulan came suddenly, I could feel the great general's heart. I loosened up a bit, and if I force the general to catch up and kill Sun Yi, I may lose my success.”

Hearing the explanation from the man in black, Sun Qing fell silent.

"Time." The black robe said humanely, "I still need some time."

If time will answer all questions, then for Mulan, the answer she got is undoubtedly a tragedy.

When the Great Wall heard Gao Changgong's rebellion, she was stunned for a long time, and then forced her subordinates to repeat it over and over again, and finally limp on the fur-covered seat, like a corpse whose soul had been drained .

For the first time in her life, like a little girl, she let go of all responsibilities and left the Great Wall overnight on a horse. Facing the wind, there was only a kind of unspeakable shame besides her heart hanging high.

The Mu family has given her so much honor that when she was still in her infancy, she was already yearning for it infinitely.

But being born as a daughter, it is undoubtedly necessary to put in tens of times and hundreds of times more effort than others to truly gain a foothold in that iron army.

But leaving the Great Wall with a horse was tantamount to letting her abandon everything, and all these years of perseverance collapsed. Even if she stood in this quiet Jingwu Palace, she still felt lonely.

While wandering, the old eunuch didn't know when he appeared behind Mulan.

This father-in-law surnamed Wang, no one remembers his name, but everyone knows that he has been in this palace for many years, so that his beardless face looks as old as this palace, It seems that every gully contains a story.

The boss did not take away his energy, his eyes still contained wisdom and calmness, and his voice did not fluctuate at all: "General Mulan, the prime minister invites you to meet."

Mulan nodded slightly, and followed the prince all the way, through the long corridor, to the outside of the main hall, and met Sun Yi who had just come out of the main hall.

"General Mulan, Sun Yi is here to thank you for saving your life. If there is an opportunity in the future, the Sun family will repay you." Although the wound was still painful, Sun Yi still insisted on bowing, and then he was supported by the young eunuch. He limped down the steps and into the prepared car.

Mulan stared at it for a while, and heard the dull sound from the door of the main hall again. Turning around, she saw the fire inside with a bit of warmth. Zhuge Wanling was sitting in the middle, dressed in Confucian robes like an ordinary Scribes generally waited for her arrival.

Mulan walked in straightforwardly, and said unceremoniously: "I remember you said that Duo Xin is only useful for young masters at most, and his cultivation level is already close to that of a saint. Why did it become like this?"

Chapter 762 Unlocking the Bell

Zhuge Wanling sat in front of the table without getting up, and slowly replied: "Yes, I did say that, but some things will inevitably be unexpected, otherwise I would not lead the army so easily. And then make the situation what it is now."

"Really, I thought you really knew everything." Mulan said to Zhuge Wanling with the same look of asking questions, "You and Chang Gong have lied to me for so many years, does that count?" The retribution of the two of you? I thought you and Ziyun died together on that snow field, but I didn’t expect that you are still alive, and even now you are sitting in this hall, ordering a country, what exactly do you want? "

Recalling the appearance of meeting Gao Changgong that day again in her mind, Mulan's heart ached for a moment, and she emphasized her tone again: "You know, if he stayed on the Great Wall, he wouldn't have to be involved in these things. You and the royal family The kindness and resentment...that is your business, not his. "

"I didn't expect things to become like this." Zhuge Wanling also understood Mulan's current mood, so he kept silent until she finished speaking, and then slowly said, "The matter of Chang Gong was indeed my negligence. I didn't notice his abnormality. When you and Ziyun helped me escape, I burned Duoxin's tome and the list before I left. I thought I could eradicate the possibility of the royal family controlling others, but I wanted to come After all, Zhang Yanling has some extraordinary abilities, and he came up with a way to win the mind from the teacher."

"Then what should I do now." Mulan still remembers the expression on her face when she saw the list full of evil and blood, and her stomach was full of strong nausea, and it was the person in front of her who directly Burned the list full of names.

She knew that the person in front of her was not as ruthless as Liu De said, so she could only sigh and said: "You said that once Duoxin is aroused, it is impossible to get rid of it, otherwise that person will become demented at least, and become demented at most. If you die directly, is there no way to recover?"

"That's why we are talking here." Zhuge Wanling said: "There is indeed no way to redeem Duoxin, but Chang Gong is different. A person who is close to the realm of a saint, even if he is hit by Duoxin, he will not be able to recover." Being completely controlled, you said that Chang Gong didn't catch up immediately when you left, at least it proves that he still has some hesitation in his heart."
