Zhao Shitu couldn't remember when he fell asleep.Maybe it was the poison that finally invaded his mind, or maybe it was the starlight above his head that lulled him to sleep. He fell into a deep sleep without realizing it. There was no dream all the way, only the uninterrupted bumps in the haze. He seemed to be walking on a never-ending road.

Of course the road has an end, and when he wakes up again, he has already arrived at his destination, and there is a strange ceiling in front of him.

The sunlight poured on his face through the window sill, causing his eyes to close slightly.He realized that he had put on clean clothes, and that the wound on his shoulder had been bandaged and was no longer bleeding.

The surrounding smell was filled with the smell of medicinal herbs. It seemed that he had returned to Stone Town and was lying in the medical hall when a crisp voice sounded in his ears: "Sleepy, you finally woke up!"

Of course he remembered the owner of the voice.He sat up from the bed, put his hands on his forehead, and said to the human standing beside the bed: "Little devil, it's you, it seems that I haven't been able to ascend to the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss yet."

As expected, Luo Huan glared at him: "The Paradise of Elysium won't accept a fool like you."

Zhao Shitu smiled, and pretended to say: "Who said that, I am merciful, the Paradise of Paradise not only accepts a fool like me, but also an impolite brat like you."

Luo Huan ignored him, put a clay bowl into his hand, and said involuntarily, "Drink it."

Zhao Shitu held the bowl and asked in surprise, "What is this?"

Luo Huan said impatiently: "If you want to drink, you can drink it. Why are you asking so much?"

Zhao Shitu glanced into the bowl, and saw hot steam rising from the dark black soup base, and there seemed to be some strange powder floating in the soup. He frowned involuntarily: "Is this thing really edible?"

Luo Huan said: "You are so big, you can't even drink a bowl of medicinal soup."

"I just drink it." Zhao Shitu raised his neck, gulped, and almost dropped the bowl on the ground, "It's so bitter, why is it so bitter! Did you cook this medicine? You can't avenge yourself publicly."

"It's good for you to die hard!" Luo Huan stomped his feet, turned and left.

"Hey, wait a minute." Zhao Shitu tried to stop him, but of course it failed.

Luo Huan thumped out the door, followed by someone who opened the door and came in. It was a beautiful woman in flamboyant clothes.

The gorgeous woman came to the bed and said in a voice that was not gorgeous at all: "There are several kinds of caterpillar fungus in this medicine, so it's strange if it's not bitter."

Zhao Shitu said happily: "Ah Zhu, it seems that you are all safe and sound."

Ming Yuezhu folded her arms on her chest, nodded and said, "That's natural."

"Not only are you safe and sound, but you even changed your clothes."

"The one on my body was too much to wear, so I had to buy it in the town. I picked it up and down and it was this style."

Stone Town is located in the Western Regions, so they are all in the style of Hu skirts, with complicated pendants on the chest and long and thin hem. Zhao Shitu looked at them for a while and said with satisfaction: "I think it suits you very well. You should buy more."

Ming Yuezhu was slightly taken aback, then quickly narrowed her eyes and said, "Let's take care of yourself first."

Zhao Shitu's eyebrows immediately turned into a horoscope, and he said sadly: "Oh, I am already miserable like a bug in the soil, and I still have to drink water that smells like bugs."

Ming Yuezhu shook her head and chuckled softly, "The little devil just dug these caterpillar fungus after squatting on the hilltop all morning. They are very effective in nourishing blood and dispelling heat. You'd better drink them honestly."

"Oh, that's how it is. No wonder that kid smells like mud, as if he had rolled in the soil." Zhao Shitu imagined Luo Huan squatting on the ground digging for bugs, couldn't help laughing, swallowed the medicine forcefully, and asked again : "Where is the superior?"

Ming Yuezhu raised her hand and pointed to the side: "Don't worry, there is nothing serious, Mr. Yan has already diagnosed you."

It turned out that there was another bed in the medical hall, and Shangguan Qing was lying on it, covered with a quilt, with a stretched expression, his chest heaving and falling, seemingly safe and sound.

Yan Wuhua was sitting beside the bed, just checked his pulse, put down his wrist, raised his head and said, "Don't worry, Chief Zhao, Brother Shangguan is fine, but he is too tired and needs to rest."

Zhao Shitu nodded and said, "It's fine, but why did he sleep longer than me?"

"Could it be that Escort Zhao doesn't remember what happened last night at all?"

Zhao Shitu tried to recall, but his mind was blurred. Apart from remembering the bumpy road, he had no memory of the rest, so he could only shake his head.

Yan Wuhua explained: "When you returned to the town last night, you had a high fever. I detoxified you with hibiscus leaves and blood vines. These herbs take effect slowly, and you need to wait for several hours to gradually show their effects. He waited until dawn and your condition stabilized before going to sleep in peace."

Zhao Shitu glanced at the person lying on the bed again, but was speechless for a while.

Yan Wuhua continued: "By the way, last night you kept calling Brother Li's name in a coma, and he didn't come back with you, could it be..."

"Yes, he already..." Zhao Shitu's expression dimmed, and he closed his eyes in pain: "I got him involved."

He told his companion how he was rescued and how he escaped and ascended to heaven, and finally said: "The Shangguan said that the horse's head cut off may still be alive. There is their power. I have to discuss with the mayor to prevent them from coming again." Then he got up.

Yan Wuhua patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to calm down: "Don't worry, Chief Zhao, officers and soldiers have already come to town."

"Officers and soldiers?" Zhao Shitu turned his head to look out the window, and he saw a well-dressed team on the street. Everyone in the team was wearing chain mail armor. The iron rings on the armor were thin and dense, and the hats were uniformly decorated with feathers. Ling, this outfit is only a soldier of the Tubo Kingdom, which is famous for its smelting, and it is a soldier of the royal family.

He couldn't help wondering: "These people came under Zanpu's order?"

Yan Wuhua said: "It's not just an order, the rampant behavior of the bandit group has alarmed Zanpu recently, even he himself has come."

Zhao Shitu was even more surprised: "The majestic king of a country came to the small town on the edge of the desert in person?"

Yan Wuhua said: "That's right, even I didn't think of it, there have long been rumors that Chi Zu Dezan is a wise monarch, it seems that it is not a lie."

Zhao Shitu looked intently for a while, and found Luo Huan in the neat line.The restless little ghost was chatting with one of the guards. He didn't know what they talked about. The guard explained a few words to the people around him, then left the team and followed Luo Huan to the direction of the medical center.

Yan Wuhua hurriedly went to the door to greet her, talked with the visiting soldiers in Tibetan for a while, then turned back and said to Zhao Shitu: "Chizu Dezan wants to invite you to meet."

Zhao Shitu was really surprised this time, raised his eyebrows and said, "The emperor of Tubo Kingdom wants to see me?"

Yan Wuhua nodded and said: "Yes, he is in the camp outside the town right now, I hope you can go and see him, if you have any concerns, I can help you refuse."

Zhao Shitu said: "It's okay, I'll go. The majestic king of a country can harm a small bodyguard like me."

Yan Wuhua smiled slightly and said: "It's true, Zhao Biaotou is open-minded and magnanimous, I was too worried."

Zhao Shitu was ashamed of what he said, touched his nose and said, "Brother Yan, don't praise me."

Ming Yuezhu said from the side: "Go quickly, when Shangguan wakes up, we still have to hurry."

Zhao Shitu said goodbye to the two of them, and followed the soldiers to the outside of the town.

From a distance, he saw Trisong Detsan's tent, not far from where the escort carts were parked. Although it was temporarily set up, it was still quite grand. It was propped up by wood, and a large flag was erected at the door, fluttering in the wind. Two rows of soldiers stood on both sides of the flagpole, all of them tall and straight, wearing mail armor and holding long guns.

He couldn't help being dumbfounded, even if he emptied the money bag given by Mr. Jia, he might not be able to afford such a tent, let alone hire such a group of people.

Compared with this tent, the escort vehicles of the Escort Bureau were even more shabby, as if they had just been dug out of the soil.

A tent set up temporarily, the formation is so grand, I don't know how majestic the people waiting inside should be.

Zhao Shitu just thought for a moment, then gave up altogether, since he had already reached the door, why bother to speculate, the opportunity to see the emperor does not come every day.

The personal soldier had brought him to the tent door, stopped a few battles away, and made a gesture of invitation.He simply walked a few steps quickly, opened the curtain, and got in.

There was only one person in the tent, a gentle middle-aged man.
