Cannon fodder apprentice reborn
Chapter 52 Extremes must be reversed, or extremes will come.
Except for Ruan Qiu and A Xi, everyone in the village did not know Li Yu Cangyao's identity as the emperor, but this promise was enough for the villagers to let them stay and treat them as honored guests.
It's getting bright soon.
One of Yunqi's companions named Li Song brought Ruan Qiu and the others to the stilted building where the wizard lived before. They could understand their words, but their accent was heavy, and Ruan Qiu and the others could not hear them very well. It was hard work, and it took me a long time to understand.
Ruan Qiu is the only person who knows how to heal here. Thinking that there are still some seriously ill villagers who were previously controlled by the wizard and asked the village chief to move here in the Diaojiaolou, he is glad that they didn't fight here, Xiao Yunzhu He was still lying on the bamboo couch in a coma. He had checked the condition of several people, and all of them were poisoned. He could only take the detoxification pill for them to temporarily stabilize the situation. Li Yu and Axi went to search for the things left by the wizard.
When they found the two, they were rummaging through the bottles and jars on the cabinet in the wizard's bedroom. Ruan Qiu asked, "Did you find any clues?"
When he asked, both of them fell silent.
Ruan Qiu guessed something from the changes in their expressions, Li Yu asked back: "Can you see the clues to detoxification from the poison on their bodies?"
"No."
Ruan Qiu approached, and all the bottles and jars on the cabinet were turned over, but there were only some poisonous insects inside, and most of them were empty.
Li Yu pressed his brows, and said in a tired tone, "There are no clues here. Not to mention the antidote, even the poison wizard did not leave behind. I heard from Li Song and the others that this kind of drug had appeared in several nearby villages before winter." It can be seen that the wizard began to refine this poison at that time, and here, he should have almost finished it. We found a letter on him, which must have been sent not long ago, urging the wizard to quickly Send the poison up."
Axi handed the letter to Ruan Qiu worriedly, "The letter said that there is no time, and the person who delivered the letter is probably also in a hurry. Before we entered the village, half of the poison had already been taken away."
Ruan Qiu took the letter and looked at it carefully, the first thing he saw was the seal totem of Wei Wangfu at the end of the letter, it was Yazi, the rumored second son of Zhonglong.
"I know why they are in a hurry, because the emperor is not in the palace. If they start a turmoil at this time and use the so-called plague to stir up people's hearts, the queen mother and the national teacher will bear considerable pressure." Li Yu looked ashamed, "I thought I You can be at ease when you leave the palace, and there will be nothing wrong with your mother, but I never thought...it was my wayward emperor who harmed everyone."
Since Li Yu trusted the Holy Empress so much, it seemed that the relationship between the mother and son was not as bad as the outside rumors.Ruan Qiu thought, looked at Li Yu one more time, and put down the secret channel: "If this is the case, King Wei will use this poison on more innocent people, not just such a small village, we have to come up with a solution as soon as possible. The antidote."
Seeing Li Yu's disappointed expression, Ah Xi also comforted her, "You have responsibilities, but the wizard's plan to refine the strange poison and King Wei's plan is before you leave the palace, even if you don't leave the palace, they They will still do it. They are for the throne under your ass, and as the emperor, you also have the responsibility to protect your people, not feel sorry for yourself."
Ruan Qiu smiled. He was a little surprised that Axi, a girl in her early ten years, saw this matter so clearly.
"I will do it."
Li Yu also understands that the most important thing now is to find a way to detoxify, and it is better to pursue the responsibility, even if he is full of shame, he can only suppress it first.The little emperor, who was skinny and shameless and cheated in skirts, became serious this time.
Seeing this, Ruan Qiu and Axi looked at each other, shook their heads and laughed at the same time.
In fact, the people in the village have been poisoned for a long time, and it is still very difficult to detoxify for a while, not to mention that they are not good at medicine, so they can only rely on Ruan Qiu.Fortunately, Ruan Qiu has the medical scriptures given to him by the medical saints and his wife, which can help him to stabilize the situation for the time being.
But after two days, the antidote is still unclear. The toxins in the poisoned villagers' bodies are accumulating more heavily. There is no wizard who uses poisonous insects to suck the poison from their bodies, and there is no wizard who can relieve the poison on the surface, but actually triggers the toxicity. It's also getting worse.The wizard is actually using the vitality of the human body to refine the poison, and he also feeds the scorpion king by letting the poison absorb the demon poison contaminated with anger, but his method also has merits. Ruan Qiu tried to let everyone detoxify.
With the help of detoxification pills, this method can temporarily help, but it won't last long. As time goes by, more and more people are suffering from poisoning in the village. Also getting restless.
Ruan Qiu was more stable than the two, and when she was bleeding Xiao Yunzhu, she would patiently and gently comfort her, but Yunzhu's condition was already more serious than many others, and her complexion was much worse after the bloodletting.Ruan Qiu healed the wound on her palm with spiritual power. The timid little girl didn't let out a cry of pain from the beginning to the end, and only after Ruan Qiu took the detoxification pill for her did she speak in a low voice uneasily.
"Brother Immortal, will I die?"
Ruan Qiu and Li Yu, who was helping beside him, had a meal, Li Yu frowned, but Ruan Qiu smiled gently, and gently stroked the little girl's head, "No, we promised you that sister Yunqi will help you." You detoxify and you will live."
The little girl's complexion was pale, her eyelids trembled, and she lay quietly on the bed. Ruan Qiu still comforted her with a gentle voice. Li Yu saw it in her eyes, and avoided her anxiety from affecting them. After putting away the things used for bloodletting just now, she went out silently.
Seeing this, Ruan Qiu asked Ah Xi to come and take care of Xiao Yunzhu first, and followed her out.
When he came out, Li Yu was sitting at the bottom of the stairs, looking at the setting sun in the sky. It hadn't snowed in the past few days. After the snow melted, a large piece of dry grass downstairs that had been burned a few days ago was exposed.
Not far away, the village was still dead silent.
Except for Xiao Yunzhu, who had no relatives to take care of her, and a few villagers who were poisoned and lethargic, most of them were still suffering in their own homes.
Ruan Qiu went downstairs and sat down beside Li Yu, "The poisons on them all have the five poisons left by the wizard after sucking blood with poisonous insects, so the conditions in the later stage of serious illness are different. The wizard gave them the relief pill The medicine should be for the purpose of confusing the poison, cultivating the poison on their bodies into the monster poison needed by the scorpion king and the ghost spider to improve their realm. These monster poisons are mixed with the original poison, making the toxicity more complicated. If we can know the earliest It is not difficult to come up with the prescription of the poison when poisoned, and the prescription of the antidote."
Li Yu looked serious, "Can't we deduce the poisonous prescription through illness?"
Ruan Qiu shook his head, "They were poisoned too deeply, and their bodies were mixed with multiple poisons. It stands to reason that the poison on Xiao Yunzhu, the only one who has not taken the wizard's elixir, should be the poison that the wizard first administered. But she has been poisoned deeply. , the poison penetrated into the lungs, causing many other symptoms, it is difficult for me to deduce what kind of poison the wizard used based on her condition."
Li Yu thought thoughtfully, "That is to say, if there is a person who has never taken the wizard's elixir like Xiao Yunzhu, and there is no mixture of five poisons in his body, you can tell the difference in his body based on the early symptoms of his poisoning. Is it a poisonous prescription?"
This is a good conjecture, Ruan Qiu said: "In theory, it is possible. Unfortunately, it is too far away from Xuanjizong. If Master Mo is here, there is no need to delay for so long, and he can detoxify everyone directly. Useless."
"No, you are very useful. Now, you are the most useful person here." A flash of determination flashed in Li Yu's eyes, and he took out a small knife with a smear of dried black and red blood on it.
Ruan Qiu recognized it at a glance, it was the dagger he used to bleed Xiao Yunzhu just now, he looked confused, "Why did you take it..."
His voice suddenly stopped.
Li Yu suddenly grasped the dagger, and drew a bloodstain on the palm of his hand, and the scarlet blood gushed out immediately. Ruan Qiu was shocked, and hurried forward to hold his wrist, threw away the dagger in his hand, and looked at the scratch on his palm , "There is poison on this dagger!"
Ruan Qiu couldn't help but take out the bottle of Jiedu Pill, "Take the Jiedu Pill before it's too late, and I'll help you get rid of the poison!"
His strength was so strong that he couldn't move Li Yu's hand. Li Yu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and pushed away the bottle of detoxification pill, but his expression was very serious, "No! Ruan Qiu, don't you just need a bottle of detoxification pill right now? Poisoned person?"
Ruan Qiu was stunned, his eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Li Yu in disbelief.
"Let me be this person." Li Yu smiled calmly, in his eyes there was aloofness belonging to Emperor Cangyao, and there was also a bit of self-mockery and guilt hidden deep inside, "They are all Cangyao's people, it is me The people of my family are also innocent victims of being involved in imperial power disputes. In any case, I have the responsibility to detoxify them. Don't worry, I have sent a letter to the palace, and someone will come soon. Of course, Ruan Qiu, I also believe that you can think of a way to detoxify."
Ruan Qiu said: "But I don't believe it."
He saw that Li Yu was so serious, but his hands were trembling slightly, "If I don't come up with an antidote in time, you will die!"
Li Yulang laughed and said: "I will not die. Because I am the son of Cangyao, the queen mother and the national teacher will not let me die like this. The king of Wei has not achieved his goal, and he will not just watch me die like this. His territory, Ruan Qiu, you can detoxify at ease." A gleam flashed in his eyes, and he looked towards the sunset outside the snow-capped mountains, "Compared to you and me, Cang Yao has many people who care more about my life, and they won't Let me die."
Ruan Qiu calmed down slowly, and looked at Li Yu suspiciously.Li Yu suppressed the complex look in his eyes, patted the back of his hand with his uninjured right hand, raised his eyebrows and smiled, seeing that he was still as free and easy as before, which made Ruan Qiu inexplicably relieved.
"Don't worry, it'll be alright."
Ruan Qiu stared at him for a while, her heart trembled with the firmness in his eyes, she pursed her lips and hesitated for a long time before slowly nodding her head.
"Okay, I'll do my best to save you."
After agreeing, Ruan Qiu felt more and more heavy. He must come up with an antidote, otherwise, Li Yu might die.
On the contrary, Li Yu relaxed, "Okay, help me bandage now."
"Wait, I'll get the medicine." Ruan Qiu gave him a deep look before getting up and going upstairs.He had to admit that Li Yu was indeed a responsible emperor, even though he was still too weak and too young.
"Hurry up, my hand hurts."
Hearing his urging, Ruan Qiu also quickened his pace.As soon as he turned around, the smile on Li Yu's face disappeared. Looking at the bloodstains on his hands, he also felt a little uneasy, but he didn't regret it.
Because the villagers who were seriously ill could not move easily, the three of them also lived in the stilted building where the wizard used to take care of the villagers nearby. Fortunately, this small building was spacious enough, and it was originally specially arranged for the wizard by the village, so they no longer had to squeeze one room.
After hearing about Li Yu's plan to get poisoned, Ah Xi worried that Li Yu would stay alone, so Ruan Qiu and Ah Xi agreed to stay with him at night and take turns watching him.
Li Yu also laughed at them for making such a fuss, and as a result, he developed a high fever that night.
The little emperor, who hadn't been sick for many years, was still shivering from the cold even though he was wrapped in a thick quilt. Several charcoal pots were burned in the house, and Ruan Qiu's cheeks were flushed from the heat. The cold weather made him feel so uncomfortable.
"But it didn't snow all day today." Ah Xi wrung out the sackcloth, and replaced the cold veil on Li Yu's forehead, which made her forehead sweat.
Seeing Li Yu like this, Ruan Qiu put a bottle of elixir on the table and sighed softly, "If you really can't stand it, you can take the detoxification elixir."
Li Yu's body temperature was too high, and his cheeks were flushed. It looked a little funny, but neither Ruan Qiu nor Ah Xi laughed. , will I not be poisoned?"
Ruan Qiu said: "Maybe. If someone in the village realized that the so-called plague was a kind of poison at the earliest time, and had taken the powerful detoxification pill earlier, it would not have developed to today's situation."
Li Yu resolutely turned his face away, "Forget it, I cut my palm just to get poisoned. If I take medicine now, won't all my suffering be in vain? No, I won't take medicine!"
In fact, like Li Yu, Ruan Qiu is the one who is under the most pressure. He frowned and persuaded again: "If you don't take the medicine to detoxify as soon as possible, after tonight, you may have to suffer even more."
Li Yu shivered all over, and with a muffled voice, he resolutely refused: "Don't eat! I said, don't waste the opportunity, watch carefully, what symptoms will I have after being poisoned like this, otherwise I am really in vain I have suffered so much!"
Ruan Qiu frowned, and raised her eyes to look at Ah Xi. She was also worried, but she avoided putting more pressure on Ruan Qiu and said nothing.
At the end, Ruan Qiu took a deep breath, held Li Yu's wrist, and regained his composure, "Okay, let me check your pulse first."
The bottle of detoxification pill was still placed on Li Yu's bedside. Ruan Qiu did not take it back, leaving Li Yu the opportunity to choose whether to stop halfway. This night, the three of them did not fall asleep. Ruan Qiu was observing Li Yu. Ah Xi was also busy taking care of him, but Li Yu, who was so uncomfortable all night, finally fell asleep exhausted.
At dawn, Ah Xi changed the cotton cloth on his forehead again, touched the side of his forehead and neck, and turned back to tell Ruan Qiu, "He's had a fever."
Ruan Qiu was checking his pulse, and his calm expression became serious.
"He was poisoned."
The poison had already spread to the limbs, it would be useless for Li Yu to take the detoxification pill now.
Ah Xi suddenly lowered her head to look at Li Yu, he was still sleeping soundly, sleeping peacefully, knowing nothing, Ah Xi hesitated to speak.
Ruan Qiu rubbed his forehead, stood up and walked to the window. Today's sky is gloomy, and there has been light snow falling in the middle of the night. Now when he opened the window, he saw that it was really icy and snowy outside.
It was already noon when Li Yu woke up, and Ah Xi and Ruan Qiu were guarding the room.Ah Xi stood by the bed, saw him running to pour hot water as soon as he opened his eyes, without any dislike for him before, and Ruan Qiu also put down the medical scriptures in his hand, got up and walked.
"How does it feel?"
Li Yu handed his hand to Ruan Qiu obediently, and talked about his condition, "My mouth is so bitter, have you given me medicine? I can't exert my strength, and my hands and feet feel numb..." He muttered After a while, he looked up at Ruan Qiu, "How is it?"
Ruan Qiu let go of his hand, shook his head without changing his face, "In the early stage of poisoning, the symptoms are not obvious, and the pulse is still normal, just wait."
Axi came back with hot water and said, "We didn't give you medicine, and we asked you several times last night, and you said you didn't want to take it."
Li Yu still remembers that Ruan Qiu and A Xi asked him several times when he was so uncomfortable that he wanted to give up, so he looked at the two of them resentfully, and then happily took the water glass, "Fortunately, I am determined, otherwise I was bewitched by you last night."
Ah Xi didn't even bother to argue with him, so she ran to the next door after muttering that her good intentions didn't go well, "Brother Xiaoqiu, I'll go next door to deliver the antidote pill to Xiao Yunzhu and the others, and let them heal their wounds along the way."
These tasks are simple, and she can do them.
Ruan Qiu nodded, "Call me if you need anything."
Li Yu was still in a bad mood and stayed on the bed. Seeing that Ruan Qiu hadn't left, he read the medical scriptures that gave him a headache. He asked lazily, "Why didn't you go?"
"Didn't you let me watch you?"
Ruan Qiu didn't raise his head, and focused on flipping through the medical scriptures. He didn't have much time, and he only hated that he didn't finish reading the medical scriptures when he was free, and he was only holding his feet at the critical moment.But as expected of the medical scriptures of the medical sage, he still found a way to relieve it.
Li Yu saw that Ruan Qiu turned his head to find a pen and paper, and wrote down some prescriptions. He was so serious that he didn't even have time to look at him, so he didn't bother him anymore. After thinking about it, he got out of bed wrapped in a blanket, and slipped to the next door to find Ah. evening.In fact, Ruan Qiu kept staring at him from the corner of his eye, and didn't care much when he saw that he was still alive and well. He wrote down the prescriptions and followed them out, and boiled those prescriptions into soup.
Li Yu has just been poisoned, and these medicines that relieve the poisoning of the middle-aged people in the later stage are of no use to him. Ruan Qiu stayed up until dark, chose the most suitable prescription, and called Li Song and others to share the soup and medicine for the symptoms. People drink it, and then follow this prescription three bowls of medicine a day, drinking it can temporarily protect everyone's heart, and delay it for a period of time.
Li Yu consciously didn't stay too far away from Ruan Qiu, so he took Ruan Qiu's pulse every hour, went out for a walk, and then came back to sleep again.
Ruan Qiu recorded his situation that day, and still took turns keeping vigil with Ah Xi.When Li Yu woke up, it was already daylight, and Xiao Yunzhu next door had already taken the medicine. When he got up, he sat on the bed blankly for a long time before saying the first sentence.
"Am I ugly?"
Ruan Qiu and Ah Xi were both stunned, "What?"
Li Yu stroked his cheek, "I had a dream, dreaming that my face was rotten."
Seeing his terrified expression, even Ruan Qiu couldn't help laughing, and then his eyes dimmed, asking him to stretch out his hand to check his pulse.Unexpectedly, as soon as Li Yu opened his sleeves, a bruise the size of an egg suddenly appeared on his arm, and the three of them fell silent.
After a while, Li Yu exclaimed by himself, and seemed relieved at last, heaved a long sigh of relief, "I'm finally here."
The early symptoms of the villagers' poisoning had already appeared on him. Ruan Qiu frowned to check his pulse, and his heart sank.He didn't speak, he got up and looked through the medical scriptures, and then the medical records that recorded Li Yu's condition in the past two days.
Li Yu raised his eyebrows, Ah Xi looked worried, and neither of them made a sound to disturb.
Ruan Qiu immerses himself in the medical scriptures, his time is running out, and Li Yu will soon have the same symptoms as everyone in the village, but he has observed for two days, but he has no clue at all. were also excluded one by one.
Is he missing something?
Ruan Qiu couldn't understand it.
At noon, Li Yu sneaked downstairs again, and Ah Xi chased after him angrily. The two were noisy and had a snowball fight downstairs, slowly recalling Ruan Qiu's mind.Ruan Qiu opened the window and looked at the two, his eyes were full of shame, he seemed unable to save Li Yu...
Just when he was worried, a snowball hit the window with a bang.
Ruan Qiu frowned and looked downstairs.
Li Yu was wrapped in a cloak, holding a snowball in his hand, showing off his might, "Hey! What are you doing here? If you can't figure it out, come down and build a snowman together!"
Ruan Qiu showed helplessness, what time is it, still thinking about building a snowman?
Probably infected by Li Yu's heartlessness, the tense line in Ruan Qiu's heart slowed down a bit. Looking at the two people downstairs who got together for a snowball fight, it suddenly occurred to him that Li Yu's face was quite delicate. She looks like her mother, but her facial features are somewhat similar to Ah Xi's.He also knew that he had lost his mind, and after thinking about it, he also sighed helplessly.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Ruan Qiu's mind, he paused, took a deep look at Li Yu downstairs, then turned and went to the next door.He thought of a poison that could cause Li Yu's condition, he hurriedly wrote it down on paper, and hurriedly read the classics.
He felt that he seemed to have grasped the key point, knew everything, and quickly listed a few prescriptions, and then found out the medicinal materials in the storage ring, and brewed several soups.So, when Li Yu and A Xi went upstairs after playing, they saw two bowls of medicine on the table.
Ruan Qiu was sitting at the table with his hand in the middle, hesitating which bowl to choose.
Seeing this, Li Yu ran over, and stretched out his hand, revealing a large bruise under his wrist. He sat down with his arms propped on the table, "The medicine is ready? Is it for me? Which bowl should I drink first?"
"Don't!" Ruan Qiu hurriedly stopped Li Yu, "These are the two prescriptions I came up with according to the guidelines in the medical scriptures, both of which use the method of fighting poison with poison, and the most important medicine is also completely different. Maybe one of them is Right, maybe both wrong."
Li Yu retracted his hand, "They are all poisonous?"
Ruan Qiu nodded, looked at the two bowls of medicine and said, "I plan to test the medicine myself."
Li Yu asked in surprise, "What medicine are you trying?"
After Ruan Qiu said it, the burden on his heart was relieved a lot. He said solemnly: "I was originally going down the mountain to practice. As an orthodox monk, I should take it as my duty to save the common people, eliminate demons and defend the way. Last time you tried poison with yourself. Now it's my turn to test the medicine."
A Xi said urgently: "No! I want to test the medicine..." She hesitated for a moment, closed her eyes and said, "Let me do it! I didn't do anything all the way here, and I have troubled you so many times, let me try it! If there is a problem with the medicine, brother Xiaoqiu can save me in time!"
"Try a fart." It was the first time Li Yu said such indecent words, squinted at Axi, and then looked at Ruan Qiu, "She is half right, you are the only one here who knows how to heal, you can't do it just for the sake of trying The medicine fell down before my people arrived, so you can't try it. Neither can this girl, she is too young, her cultivation is too low, and she is not poisoned."
"The person who is most suitable for testing medicine is me." Li Yu pointed to himself, and said to Ruan Qiu: "You know what I said is right. I am the emperor, and it is my duty to protect the people, not to mention that I have been poisoned. People are more suitable for testing medicine than me!"
Both Ruan Qiu and Ah Xi fell silent, because what Li Yu said was indeed correct.
When Li Yu's hand reached out to the medicine bowl, Ruan Qiu still stopped him.Perhaps because he was too nervous, his breathing was very uneven.
"You, you wait a little longer."
Li Yu said: "The medicine is cold."
Ruan Qiu closed her eyes, "I'm a little scared."
These words made Li Yu laugh, and a heavy look came into his eyes, "I'm not afraid of being poisoned, what are you afraid of? I can be afraid, but you can't, because if the medicine is wrong, you still have to save me. Ruan Qiu, I believe , you can save us."
But Ruan Qiu didn't even have confidence.
Li Yu still pushed his hand away, Ruan Qiu bit his lip, and took out a small jade bottle from the storage ring, "This is the Great Returning Pill, this is the only one, and Master asked me to take it with me when I went down the mountain." , Li Yu, if there is any problem, you will immediately take the Great Repayment Pill."
Seeing the Great Returning Pill, Li Yu relaxed a lot, "You said it earlier, then we won't fight. Don't worry, there is the Great Returning Pill, as long as I take the pill in time, everything will be fine."
Ruan Qiu's face was pale, "But I only have this Da Huan Dan in my hand. If the medicine is wrong, it can't help you detoxify."
"But it can help me hang my life. Isn't the Medical Sage your uncle?" Li Yu pretended to be relaxed, "You will send me to the Medical Sage for medical treatment then."
Ruan Qiu was still worried, "Can your people really arrive in a few days?"
It has been a few days since Li Yu sent the letter out, and after doing the math, he said: "People will come in these two days, if you wait any longer, the medicine will be cold."
With several guarantees, Ruan Qiu was reluctantly persuaded by Li Yu, and finally nodded.
Li Yu stretched out his hand, back and forth on the two bowls of steaming soup, and then stretched out towards Ruan Qiu and A Xi, "I have always been unlucky. Before I was born, my father died in battle. When I was ten years old, how many I fell into their hands and nearly died, but now that I have come to this village, I have also been poisoned, and I am afraid that the poison I chose will be poison."
Ruan Qiu paused, "My father passed away before I was born, and my mother also died of illness when I was eight years old. I tried medicine before, but that bowl of medicine was poisonous and made me blind. But... I became the apprentice of the Juggernaut, and I made love with my sweetheart."
Li Yu was puzzled, "It's time like this, and you still show off your future Taoist companion?"
Ruan Qiu said helplessly: "My luck seems to have been used up on these two things. But at this moment, I hope we can have a little bit of luck." He said, reaching out to cover the back of Li Yu's hand.
Ah Xi looked at the two of them, and with a slap, she also covered the backs of their hands.
"Then it's better for me. My father passed away a few years ago. Although I have never seen my mother, I know she is alive and I will find her. At worst, my aunt will take me in. I will use this bit of luck Give it to you, I hope the medicine is useful!"
Li Yu laughed angrily, and shook off the two of them in disgust, "What the hell, why are you all unlucky ghosts, I'm starting to be scared now, okay?" Having said that, he looked at the two bowls of medicine on the table and took a deep breath. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes and chose a bowl blindly.
The medicine bowl was delivered to his mouth. Li Yu stopped, looked down and thought for a while, and a complicated flash of eyes flashed in his eyes, "If I take the wrong medicine, when my people come, please bring me a sentence. Tell the mother, ten years old I have let go of what happened when I was forced into the palace in Nian, I don't hate the queen mother, nor do I hate the grand master, if I am gone, let the queen mother bring back the people she cares about."
He didn't wait for the two to answer, he raised his head and poured down the half-cold soup, probably because it was too bitter, he frowned, and then threw the medicine bowl out forcefully, with a happy smile in his eyes.
"I'm done drinking!"
As soon as he drank the decoction, Ruan Qiu had already squeezed the jade bottle of Da Huan Pill, and Ah Xi was also staring at him closely, her eyes flushed unconsciously. Li Yu looked at them and laughed instead, "Why do you look like this?" The expression, I haven't been poisoned yet... Ugh!"
Li Yu's voice stopped suddenly, and his five fingers holding on to the edge of the table tightened, even his veins tensed.Unexpectedly, the effect of the medicine took effect so quickly, Ruan Qiu and A Xi hurried over to support him, Li Yu tightly covered his abdomen with one hand, his eyes were bloodshot.
Suddenly, the blue veins on Li Yu's forehead twitched, and he spit out a big mouthful of black blood from his head. The wooden floor was instantly stained red, and most of the decoction he had just drank was also vomited out. He convulsed, closed his eyes and fell down. down.
Ruan Qiu suddenly thought of Yun Qi's haste when she left, he forced himself to calm down, supported Li Yuping to lie down, opened the jade bottle holding the Da Huan Pill with trembling hands, the more anxious he became, the more chaotic he became.
"I come!"
Seeing that he was still unable to get out the elixir, Ah Xi hurried over to help, but just as she stretched out her hand, her heart beat faster and hit her chest violently, making her breathless, and almost fell on Li Yu's body.
"what happened to you?"
Ruan Qiu finally poured out the golden elixir full of aura. Seeing Ah Xi sitting slumped on the ground with one hand propped on the ground, his forehead was full of big men, and his complexion turned pale in an instant. A trace of worry flashed in his eyes, and he quickly pinched Li Yu's lips. Jaw to let him open his mouth.
A Xi shook her head, her eyes were also very confused, the blood flow in her body seemed to be much faster, but seeing Ruan Qiu holding the Great Return Pill, but unable to make Li Yu open her mouth, she didn't care about the discomfort on her body, so she rushed over and tried hard Open Li Yu's mouth.
She used a lot of strength to pry open Li Yu's mouth, which was tense before he passed out, and now his whole body is stiff. Ruan Qiu was secretly happy, and was about to feed him the Da Huan Pill, when Ah Xi's face suddenly changed. He stared round his eyes.
"He's out of breath!"
Ruan Qiu's heart trembled, and then he put his hand in front of Li Yu's nose, but he didn't feel a trace of breath, and Qiu Shui's eyes widened.
"How could it be so fast..."
But looking at the Da Huan Pill in his hand, Ruan Qiu gritted his teeth, and opened Li Yu's mouth to stuff the Da Huan Pill, but when the elixir was about to be fed to his mouth, he was caught by a limp hand, When he raised his eyes, he saw Li Yu's painful expression.
Ah Xi's heart was full of ups and downs, and she couldn't even remember when the pain on her body disappeared. When she saw him wake up, she was overjoyed.
"He's awake!"
Only then did Ruan Qiu let go of Li Yu's jaw, with a happy smile on his face as well. He handed the Great Return Pill to Ah Xi, and held Li Yu's wrist. Although the pulse was very weak, it was getting weaker and weaker. Powerful, Li Yu's body is obviously improving.
This all proves the fact that -
"The prescription is right!"
Ruan Qiu said in surprise, Ah Xi nodded with a face full of joy, Li Yu finally recovered, raised his hand weakly to touch his face, gasped and said: "The prescription is right, I just fainted for a while, you guys Don't you want to hit me in the face while I'm unconscious?"
"Hiss, my cheek hurts..."
Hearing what he said, Ruan Qiu and A Xi looked at his cheeks one after another, because when they opened Li Yu's mouth with too much force, there were two groups of bruises on Li Yu's cheeks, and Li Yu himself was extremely He looked at them weakly and bewilderedly.
Two people: "..."
The two of them looked away guiltily, looked at each other, and laughed again.
After putting away the Da Huan Dan and lifting Li Yu to the bed together, Ruan Qiu said with emotion: "It's good that you have nothing to do. This shows that we are usually unlucky, but there are also times when we are lucky."
A Xi also turned her head to avoid Li Yu's probing gaze, and responded crisply: "Yes! There is a saying that says it, it's very good!"
Li Yu felt uncomfortable all over his body, especially his cheeks. Seeing that the two of them were avoiding his eyes, he showed suspicion, "You must have ghosts in your heart, but..." He lay on the bed, heaved a sigh of relief, I closed my eyes again.
"I'm tired, let me rest for a while."
The effect of the medicine has just started, and even though Li Yu passed the test just now, Ruan Qiu became serious again when he heard the words, and felt that he couldn't be happy too early, so he tightly held the Da Huan Dan in his hand, and stood by the bed, "Go to sleep, we Will keep watching you."
"Ok!"
Ah Xi nodded, ready to fight.
Li Yu didn't speak any more. After the effect of the medicine, he quickly fell asleep. This sleep lasted until the next morning.At that time, Ah Xi couldn't stand it anymore and fell asleep on the edge of the bed. Ruan Qiu was the first to notice that he had opened his eyes. Just as he was about to get up, Li Yu looked at Ah Xi and made a silent gesture to him.
Ruan Qiu nodded, and walked to the bed very lightly. Li Yu sat up by himself, looking full of energy, and his face returned to its former ruddy. His eyes lit up again.
"I'm ready."
Ruan Qiu kept watch all night, and now that he was sure that the remaining poison on his body was gone, the burden on his heart was finally put down, and he nodded with a smile in his eyes.
But Li Yu said again: "Then you find me a mirror, I dare not look in the mirror these few days, I want to see if I am disfigured or not."
Ruan Qiu's smile stopped, his voice was still very soft, and he got up and said, "Although I found the correct prescription, the effect of the medicine seems to be too strong. Even you, a Jindan cultivator, can hardly bear it. I'll go and improve the prescription first. , and then detoxify everyone."
As he said that, he smiled at Li Yu, went out, and closed the door. When he closed the door, he heard Li Yu muttering something in the room. After that, there was a scream in the room——
"my face!"
Immediately afterwards, Ah Xi's voice of being awakened came from inside the door, asking her in surprise, but it was Li Yu's accusation that responded to her, his voice full of anger.Ruan Qiu listened in front of the door, covered her lips with a guilty conscience, and coughed lightly, then turned and looked outside the building.
Above the snow-capped mountains, the sun is rising.
The author has something to say:
In fact, the three of them are a family_(:з」∠)_
Today is the last day of 2021, have you had New Year's Eve dinner yet?I wish you all a happy new year! The new year 2022 is safe and smooth!
It's getting bright soon.
One of Yunqi's companions named Li Song brought Ruan Qiu and the others to the stilted building where the wizard lived before. They could understand their words, but their accent was heavy, and Ruan Qiu and the others could not hear them very well. It was hard work, and it took me a long time to understand.
Ruan Qiu is the only person who knows how to heal here. Thinking that there are still some seriously ill villagers who were previously controlled by the wizard and asked the village chief to move here in the Diaojiaolou, he is glad that they didn't fight here, Xiao Yunzhu He was still lying on the bamboo couch in a coma. He had checked the condition of several people, and all of them were poisoned. He could only take the detoxification pill for them to temporarily stabilize the situation. Li Yu and Axi went to search for the things left by the wizard.
When they found the two, they were rummaging through the bottles and jars on the cabinet in the wizard's bedroom. Ruan Qiu asked, "Did you find any clues?"
When he asked, both of them fell silent.
Ruan Qiu guessed something from the changes in their expressions, Li Yu asked back: "Can you see the clues to detoxification from the poison on their bodies?"
"No."
Ruan Qiu approached, and all the bottles and jars on the cabinet were turned over, but there were only some poisonous insects inside, and most of them were empty.
Li Yu pressed his brows, and said in a tired tone, "There are no clues here. Not to mention the antidote, even the poison wizard did not leave behind. I heard from Li Song and the others that this kind of drug had appeared in several nearby villages before winter." It can be seen that the wizard began to refine this poison at that time, and here, he should have almost finished it. We found a letter on him, which must have been sent not long ago, urging the wizard to quickly Send the poison up."
Axi handed the letter to Ruan Qiu worriedly, "The letter said that there is no time, and the person who delivered the letter is probably also in a hurry. Before we entered the village, half of the poison had already been taken away."
Ruan Qiu took the letter and looked at it carefully, the first thing he saw was the seal totem of Wei Wangfu at the end of the letter, it was Yazi, the rumored second son of Zhonglong.
"I know why they are in a hurry, because the emperor is not in the palace. If they start a turmoil at this time and use the so-called plague to stir up people's hearts, the queen mother and the national teacher will bear considerable pressure." Li Yu looked ashamed, "I thought I You can be at ease when you leave the palace, and there will be nothing wrong with your mother, but I never thought...it was my wayward emperor who harmed everyone."
Since Li Yu trusted the Holy Empress so much, it seemed that the relationship between the mother and son was not as bad as the outside rumors.Ruan Qiu thought, looked at Li Yu one more time, and put down the secret channel: "If this is the case, King Wei will use this poison on more innocent people, not just such a small village, we have to come up with a solution as soon as possible. The antidote."
Seeing Li Yu's disappointed expression, Ah Xi also comforted her, "You have responsibilities, but the wizard's plan to refine the strange poison and King Wei's plan is before you leave the palace, even if you don't leave the palace, they They will still do it. They are for the throne under your ass, and as the emperor, you also have the responsibility to protect your people, not feel sorry for yourself."
Ruan Qiu smiled. He was a little surprised that Axi, a girl in her early ten years, saw this matter so clearly.
"I will do it."
Li Yu also understands that the most important thing now is to find a way to detoxify, and it is better to pursue the responsibility, even if he is full of shame, he can only suppress it first.The little emperor, who was skinny and shameless and cheated in skirts, became serious this time.
Seeing this, Ruan Qiu and Axi looked at each other, shook their heads and laughed at the same time.
In fact, the people in the village have been poisoned for a long time, and it is still very difficult to detoxify for a while, not to mention that they are not good at medicine, so they can only rely on Ruan Qiu.Fortunately, Ruan Qiu has the medical scriptures given to him by the medical saints and his wife, which can help him to stabilize the situation for the time being.
But after two days, the antidote is still unclear. The toxins in the poisoned villagers' bodies are accumulating more heavily. There is no wizard who uses poisonous insects to suck the poison from their bodies, and there is no wizard who can relieve the poison on the surface, but actually triggers the toxicity. It's also getting worse.The wizard is actually using the vitality of the human body to refine the poison, and he also feeds the scorpion king by letting the poison absorb the demon poison contaminated with anger, but his method also has merits. Ruan Qiu tried to let everyone detoxify.
With the help of detoxification pills, this method can temporarily help, but it won't last long. As time goes by, more and more people are suffering from poisoning in the village. Also getting restless.
Ruan Qiu was more stable than the two, and when she was bleeding Xiao Yunzhu, she would patiently and gently comfort her, but Yunzhu's condition was already more serious than many others, and her complexion was much worse after the bloodletting.Ruan Qiu healed the wound on her palm with spiritual power. The timid little girl didn't let out a cry of pain from the beginning to the end, and only after Ruan Qiu took the detoxification pill for her did she speak in a low voice uneasily.
"Brother Immortal, will I die?"
Ruan Qiu and Li Yu, who was helping beside him, had a meal, Li Yu frowned, but Ruan Qiu smiled gently, and gently stroked the little girl's head, "No, we promised you that sister Yunqi will help you." You detoxify and you will live."
The little girl's complexion was pale, her eyelids trembled, and she lay quietly on the bed. Ruan Qiu still comforted her with a gentle voice. Li Yu saw it in her eyes, and avoided her anxiety from affecting them. After putting away the things used for bloodletting just now, she went out silently.
Seeing this, Ruan Qiu asked Ah Xi to come and take care of Xiao Yunzhu first, and followed her out.
When he came out, Li Yu was sitting at the bottom of the stairs, looking at the setting sun in the sky. It hadn't snowed in the past few days. After the snow melted, a large piece of dry grass downstairs that had been burned a few days ago was exposed.
Not far away, the village was still dead silent.
Except for Xiao Yunzhu, who had no relatives to take care of her, and a few villagers who were poisoned and lethargic, most of them were still suffering in their own homes.
Ruan Qiu went downstairs and sat down beside Li Yu, "The poisons on them all have the five poisons left by the wizard after sucking blood with poisonous insects, so the conditions in the later stage of serious illness are different. The wizard gave them the relief pill The medicine should be for the purpose of confusing the poison, cultivating the poison on their bodies into the monster poison needed by the scorpion king and the ghost spider to improve their realm. These monster poisons are mixed with the original poison, making the toxicity more complicated. If we can know the earliest It is not difficult to come up with the prescription of the poison when poisoned, and the prescription of the antidote."
Li Yu looked serious, "Can't we deduce the poisonous prescription through illness?"
Ruan Qiu shook his head, "They were poisoned too deeply, and their bodies were mixed with multiple poisons. It stands to reason that the poison on Xiao Yunzhu, the only one who has not taken the wizard's elixir, should be the poison that the wizard first administered. But she has been poisoned deeply. , the poison penetrated into the lungs, causing many other symptoms, it is difficult for me to deduce what kind of poison the wizard used based on her condition."
Li Yu thought thoughtfully, "That is to say, if there is a person who has never taken the wizard's elixir like Xiao Yunzhu, and there is no mixture of five poisons in his body, you can tell the difference in his body based on the early symptoms of his poisoning. Is it a poisonous prescription?"
This is a good conjecture, Ruan Qiu said: "In theory, it is possible. Unfortunately, it is too far away from Xuanjizong. If Master Mo is here, there is no need to delay for so long, and he can detoxify everyone directly. Useless."
"No, you are very useful. Now, you are the most useful person here." A flash of determination flashed in Li Yu's eyes, and he took out a small knife with a smear of dried black and red blood on it.
Ruan Qiu recognized it at a glance, it was the dagger he used to bleed Xiao Yunzhu just now, he looked confused, "Why did you take it..."
His voice suddenly stopped.
Li Yu suddenly grasped the dagger, and drew a bloodstain on the palm of his hand, and the scarlet blood gushed out immediately. Ruan Qiu was shocked, and hurried forward to hold his wrist, threw away the dagger in his hand, and looked at the scratch on his palm , "There is poison on this dagger!"
Ruan Qiu couldn't help but take out the bottle of Jiedu Pill, "Take the Jiedu Pill before it's too late, and I'll help you get rid of the poison!"
His strength was so strong that he couldn't move Li Yu's hand. Li Yu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and pushed away the bottle of detoxification pill, but his expression was very serious, "No! Ruan Qiu, don't you just need a bottle of detoxification pill right now? Poisoned person?"
Ruan Qiu was stunned, his eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Li Yu in disbelief.
"Let me be this person." Li Yu smiled calmly, in his eyes there was aloofness belonging to Emperor Cangyao, and there was also a bit of self-mockery and guilt hidden deep inside, "They are all Cangyao's people, it is me The people of my family are also innocent victims of being involved in imperial power disputes. In any case, I have the responsibility to detoxify them. Don't worry, I have sent a letter to the palace, and someone will come soon. Of course, Ruan Qiu, I also believe that you can think of a way to detoxify."
Ruan Qiu said: "But I don't believe it."
He saw that Li Yu was so serious, but his hands were trembling slightly, "If I don't come up with an antidote in time, you will die!"
Li Yulang laughed and said: "I will not die. Because I am the son of Cangyao, the queen mother and the national teacher will not let me die like this. The king of Wei has not achieved his goal, and he will not just watch me die like this. His territory, Ruan Qiu, you can detoxify at ease." A gleam flashed in his eyes, and he looked towards the sunset outside the snow-capped mountains, "Compared to you and me, Cang Yao has many people who care more about my life, and they won't Let me die."
Ruan Qiu calmed down slowly, and looked at Li Yu suspiciously.Li Yu suppressed the complex look in his eyes, patted the back of his hand with his uninjured right hand, raised his eyebrows and smiled, seeing that he was still as free and easy as before, which made Ruan Qiu inexplicably relieved.
"Don't worry, it'll be alright."
Ruan Qiu stared at him for a while, her heart trembled with the firmness in his eyes, she pursed her lips and hesitated for a long time before slowly nodding her head.
"Okay, I'll do my best to save you."
After agreeing, Ruan Qiu felt more and more heavy. He must come up with an antidote, otherwise, Li Yu might die.
On the contrary, Li Yu relaxed, "Okay, help me bandage now."
"Wait, I'll get the medicine." Ruan Qiu gave him a deep look before getting up and going upstairs.He had to admit that Li Yu was indeed a responsible emperor, even though he was still too weak and too young.
"Hurry up, my hand hurts."
Hearing his urging, Ruan Qiu also quickened his pace.As soon as he turned around, the smile on Li Yu's face disappeared. Looking at the bloodstains on his hands, he also felt a little uneasy, but he didn't regret it.
Because the villagers who were seriously ill could not move easily, the three of them also lived in the stilted building where the wizard used to take care of the villagers nearby. Fortunately, this small building was spacious enough, and it was originally specially arranged for the wizard by the village, so they no longer had to squeeze one room.
After hearing about Li Yu's plan to get poisoned, Ah Xi worried that Li Yu would stay alone, so Ruan Qiu and Ah Xi agreed to stay with him at night and take turns watching him.
Li Yu also laughed at them for making such a fuss, and as a result, he developed a high fever that night.
The little emperor, who hadn't been sick for many years, was still shivering from the cold even though he was wrapped in a thick quilt. Several charcoal pots were burned in the house, and Ruan Qiu's cheeks were flushed from the heat. The cold weather made him feel so uncomfortable.
"But it didn't snow all day today." Ah Xi wrung out the sackcloth, and replaced the cold veil on Li Yu's forehead, which made her forehead sweat.
Seeing Li Yu like this, Ruan Qiu put a bottle of elixir on the table and sighed softly, "If you really can't stand it, you can take the detoxification elixir."
Li Yu's body temperature was too high, and his cheeks were flushed. It looked a little funny, but neither Ruan Qiu nor Ah Xi laughed. , will I not be poisoned?"
Ruan Qiu said: "Maybe. If someone in the village realized that the so-called plague was a kind of poison at the earliest time, and had taken the powerful detoxification pill earlier, it would not have developed to today's situation."
Li Yu resolutely turned his face away, "Forget it, I cut my palm just to get poisoned. If I take medicine now, won't all my suffering be in vain? No, I won't take medicine!"
In fact, like Li Yu, Ruan Qiu is the one who is under the most pressure. He frowned and persuaded again: "If you don't take the medicine to detoxify as soon as possible, after tonight, you may have to suffer even more."
Li Yu shivered all over, and with a muffled voice, he resolutely refused: "Don't eat! I said, don't waste the opportunity, watch carefully, what symptoms will I have after being poisoned like this, otherwise I am really in vain I have suffered so much!"
Ruan Qiu frowned, and raised her eyes to look at Ah Xi. She was also worried, but she avoided putting more pressure on Ruan Qiu and said nothing.
At the end, Ruan Qiu took a deep breath, held Li Yu's wrist, and regained his composure, "Okay, let me check your pulse first."
The bottle of detoxification pill was still placed on Li Yu's bedside. Ruan Qiu did not take it back, leaving Li Yu the opportunity to choose whether to stop halfway. This night, the three of them did not fall asleep. Ruan Qiu was observing Li Yu. Ah Xi was also busy taking care of him, but Li Yu, who was so uncomfortable all night, finally fell asleep exhausted.
At dawn, Ah Xi changed the cotton cloth on his forehead again, touched the side of his forehead and neck, and turned back to tell Ruan Qiu, "He's had a fever."
Ruan Qiu was checking his pulse, and his calm expression became serious.
"He was poisoned."
The poison had already spread to the limbs, it would be useless for Li Yu to take the detoxification pill now.
Ah Xi suddenly lowered her head to look at Li Yu, he was still sleeping soundly, sleeping peacefully, knowing nothing, Ah Xi hesitated to speak.
Ruan Qiu rubbed his forehead, stood up and walked to the window. Today's sky is gloomy, and there has been light snow falling in the middle of the night. Now when he opened the window, he saw that it was really icy and snowy outside.
It was already noon when Li Yu woke up, and Ah Xi and Ruan Qiu were guarding the room.Ah Xi stood by the bed, saw him running to pour hot water as soon as he opened his eyes, without any dislike for him before, and Ruan Qiu also put down the medical scriptures in his hand, got up and walked.
"How does it feel?"
Li Yu handed his hand to Ruan Qiu obediently, and talked about his condition, "My mouth is so bitter, have you given me medicine? I can't exert my strength, and my hands and feet feel numb..." He muttered After a while, he looked up at Ruan Qiu, "How is it?"
Ruan Qiu let go of his hand, shook his head without changing his face, "In the early stage of poisoning, the symptoms are not obvious, and the pulse is still normal, just wait."
Axi came back with hot water and said, "We didn't give you medicine, and we asked you several times last night, and you said you didn't want to take it."
Li Yu still remembers that Ruan Qiu and A Xi asked him several times when he was so uncomfortable that he wanted to give up, so he looked at the two of them resentfully, and then happily took the water glass, "Fortunately, I am determined, otherwise I was bewitched by you last night."
Ah Xi didn't even bother to argue with him, so she ran to the next door after muttering that her good intentions didn't go well, "Brother Xiaoqiu, I'll go next door to deliver the antidote pill to Xiao Yunzhu and the others, and let them heal their wounds along the way."
These tasks are simple, and she can do them.
Ruan Qiu nodded, "Call me if you need anything."
Li Yu was still in a bad mood and stayed on the bed. Seeing that Ruan Qiu hadn't left, he read the medical scriptures that gave him a headache. He asked lazily, "Why didn't you go?"
"Didn't you let me watch you?"
Ruan Qiu didn't raise his head, and focused on flipping through the medical scriptures. He didn't have much time, and he only hated that he didn't finish reading the medical scriptures when he was free, and he was only holding his feet at the critical moment.But as expected of the medical scriptures of the medical sage, he still found a way to relieve it.
Li Yu saw that Ruan Qiu turned his head to find a pen and paper, and wrote down some prescriptions. He was so serious that he didn't even have time to look at him, so he didn't bother him anymore. After thinking about it, he got out of bed wrapped in a blanket, and slipped to the next door to find Ah. evening.In fact, Ruan Qiu kept staring at him from the corner of his eye, and didn't care much when he saw that he was still alive and well. He wrote down the prescriptions and followed them out, and boiled those prescriptions into soup.
Li Yu has just been poisoned, and these medicines that relieve the poisoning of the middle-aged people in the later stage are of no use to him. Ruan Qiu stayed up until dark, chose the most suitable prescription, and called Li Song and others to share the soup and medicine for the symptoms. People drink it, and then follow this prescription three bowls of medicine a day, drinking it can temporarily protect everyone's heart, and delay it for a period of time.
Li Yu consciously didn't stay too far away from Ruan Qiu, so he took Ruan Qiu's pulse every hour, went out for a walk, and then came back to sleep again.
Ruan Qiu recorded his situation that day, and still took turns keeping vigil with Ah Xi.When Li Yu woke up, it was already daylight, and Xiao Yunzhu next door had already taken the medicine. When he got up, he sat on the bed blankly for a long time before saying the first sentence.
"Am I ugly?"
Ruan Qiu and Ah Xi were both stunned, "What?"
Li Yu stroked his cheek, "I had a dream, dreaming that my face was rotten."
Seeing his terrified expression, even Ruan Qiu couldn't help laughing, and then his eyes dimmed, asking him to stretch out his hand to check his pulse.Unexpectedly, as soon as Li Yu opened his sleeves, a bruise the size of an egg suddenly appeared on his arm, and the three of them fell silent.
After a while, Li Yu exclaimed by himself, and seemed relieved at last, heaved a long sigh of relief, "I'm finally here."
The early symptoms of the villagers' poisoning had already appeared on him. Ruan Qiu frowned to check his pulse, and his heart sank.He didn't speak, he got up and looked through the medical scriptures, and then the medical records that recorded Li Yu's condition in the past two days.
Li Yu raised his eyebrows, Ah Xi looked worried, and neither of them made a sound to disturb.
Ruan Qiu immerses himself in the medical scriptures, his time is running out, and Li Yu will soon have the same symptoms as everyone in the village, but he has observed for two days, but he has no clue at all. were also excluded one by one.
Is he missing something?
Ruan Qiu couldn't understand it.
At noon, Li Yu sneaked downstairs again, and Ah Xi chased after him angrily. The two were noisy and had a snowball fight downstairs, slowly recalling Ruan Qiu's mind.Ruan Qiu opened the window and looked at the two, his eyes were full of shame, he seemed unable to save Li Yu...
Just when he was worried, a snowball hit the window with a bang.
Ruan Qiu frowned and looked downstairs.
Li Yu was wrapped in a cloak, holding a snowball in his hand, showing off his might, "Hey! What are you doing here? If you can't figure it out, come down and build a snowman together!"
Ruan Qiu showed helplessness, what time is it, still thinking about building a snowman?
Probably infected by Li Yu's heartlessness, the tense line in Ruan Qiu's heart slowed down a bit. Looking at the two people downstairs who got together for a snowball fight, it suddenly occurred to him that Li Yu's face was quite delicate. She looks like her mother, but her facial features are somewhat similar to Ah Xi's.He also knew that he had lost his mind, and after thinking about it, he also sighed helplessly.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Ruan Qiu's mind, he paused, took a deep look at Li Yu downstairs, then turned and went to the next door.He thought of a poison that could cause Li Yu's condition, he hurriedly wrote it down on paper, and hurriedly read the classics.
He felt that he seemed to have grasped the key point, knew everything, and quickly listed a few prescriptions, and then found out the medicinal materials in the storage ring, and brewed several soups.So, when Li Yu and A Xi went upstairs after playing, they saw two bowls of medicine on the table.
Ruan Qiu was sitting at the table with his hand in the middle, hesitating which bowl to choose.
Seeing this, Li Yu ran over, and stretched out his hand, revealing a large bruise under his wrist. He sat down with his arms propped on the table, "The medicine is ready? Is it for me? Which bowl should I drink first?"
"Don't!" Ruan Qiu hurriedly stopped Li Yu, "These are the two prescriptions I came up with according to the guidelines in the medical scriptures, both of which use the method of fighting poison with poison, and the most important medicine is also completely different. Maybe one of them is Right, maybe both wrong."
Li Yu retracted his hand, "They are all poisonous?"
Ruan Qiu nodded, looked at the two bowls of medicine and said, "I plan to test the medicine myself."
Li Yu asked in surprise, "What medicine are you trying?"
After Ruan Qiu said it, the burden on his heart was relieved a lot. He said solemnly: "I was originally going down the mountain to practice. As an orthodox monk, I should take it as my duty to save the common people, eliminate demons and defend the way. Last time you tried poison with yourself. Now it's my turn to test the medicine."
A Xi said urgently: "No! I want to test the medicine..." She hesitated for a moment, closed her eyes and said, "Let me do it! I didn't do anything all the way here, and I have troubled you so many times, let me try it! If there is a problem with the medicine, brother Xiaoqiu can save me in time!"
"Try a fart." It was the first time Li Yu said such indecent words, squinted at Axi, and then looked at Ruan Qiu, "She is half right, you are the only one here who knows how to heal, you can't do it just for the sake of trying The medicine fell down before my people arrived, so you can't try it. Neither can this girl, she is too young, her cultivation is too low, and she is not poisoned."
"The person who is most suitable for testing medicine is me." Li Yu pointed to himself, and said to Ruan Qiu: "You know what I said is right. I am the emperor, and it is my duty to protect the people, not to mention that I have been poisoned. People are more suitable for testing medicine than me!"
Both Ruan Qiu and Ah Xi fell silent, because what Li Yu said was indeed correct.
When Li Yu's hand reached out to the medicine bowl, Ruan Qiu still stopped him.Perhaps because he was too nervous, his breathing was very uneven.
"You, you wait a little longer."
Li Yu said: "The medicine is cold."
Ruan Qiu closed her eyes, "I'm a little scared."
These words made Li Yu laugh, and a heavy look came into his eyes, "I'm not afraid of being poisoned, what are you afraid of? I can be afraid, but you can't, because if the medicine is wrong, you still have to save me. Ruan Qiu, I believe , you can save us."
But Ruan Qiu didn't even have confidence.
Li Yu still pushed his hand away, Ruan Qiu bit his lip, and took out a small jade bottle from the storage ring, "This is the Great Returning Pill, this is the only one, and Master asked me to take it with me when I went down the mountain." , Li Yu, if there is any problem, you will immediately take the Great Repayment Pill."
Seeing the Great Returning Pill, Li Yu relaxed a lot, "You said it earlier, then we won't fight. Don't worry, there is the Great Returning Pill, as long as I take the pill in time, everything will be fine."
Ruan Qiu's face was pale, "But I only have this Da Huan Dan in my hand. If the medicine is wrong, it can't help you detoxify."
"But it can help me hang my life. Isn't the Medical Sage your uncle?" Li Yu pretended to be relaxed, "You will send me to the Medical Sage for medical treatment then."
Ruan Qiu was still worried, "Can your people really arrive in a few days?"
It has been a few days since Li Yu sent the letter out, and after doing the math, he said: "People will come in these two days, if you wait any longer, the medicine will be cold."
With several guarantees, Ruan Qiu was reluctantly persuaded by Li Yu, and finally nodded.
Li Yu stretched out his hand, back and forth on the two bowls of steaming soup, and then stretched out towards Ruan Qiu and A Xi, "I have always been unlucky. Before I was born, my father died in battle. When I was ten years old, how many I fell into their hands and nearly died, but now that I have come to this village, I have also been poisoned, and I am afraid that the poison I chose will be poison."
Ruan Qiu paused, "My father passed away before I was born, and my mother also died of illness when I was eight years old. I tried medicine before, but that bowl of medicine was poisonous and made me blind. But... I became the apprentice of the Juggernaut, and I made love with my sweetheart."
Li Yu was puzzled, "It's time like this, and you still show off your future Taoist companion?"
Ruan Qiu said helplessly: "My luck seems to have been used up on these two things. But at this moment, I hope we can have a little bit of luck." He said, reaching out to cover the back of Li Yu's hand.
Ah Xi looked at the two of them, and with a slap, she also covered the backs of their hands.
"Then it's better for me. My father passed away a few years ago. Although I have never seen my mother, I know she is alive and I will find her. At worst, my aunt will take me in. I will use this bit of luck Give it to you, I hope the medicine is useful!"
Li Yu laughed angrily, and shook off the two of them in disgust, "What the hell, why are you all unlucky ghosts, I'm starting to be scared now, okay?" Having said that, he looked at the two bowls of medicine on the table and took a deep breath. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes and chose a bowl blindly.
The medicine bowl was delivered to his mouth. Li Yu stopped, looked down and thought for a while, and a complicated flash of eyes flashed in his eyes, "If I take the wrong medicine, when my people come, please bring me a sentence. Tell the mother, ten years old I have let go of what happened when I was forced into the palace in Nian, I don't hate the queen mother, nor do I hate the grand master, if I am gone, let the queen mother bring back the people she cares about."
He didn't wait for the two to answer, he raised his head and poured down the half-cold soup, probably because it was too bitter, he frowned, and then threw the medicine bowl out forcefully, with a happy smile in his eyes.
"I'm done drinking!"
As soon as he drank the decoction, Ruan Qiu had already squeezed the jade bottle of Da Huan Pill, and Ah Xi was also staring at him closely, her eyes flushed unconsciously. Li Yu looked at them and laughed instead, "Why do you look like this?" The expression, I haven't been poisoned yet... Ugh!"
Li Yu's voice stopped suddenly, and his five fingers holding on to the edge of the table tightened, even his veins tensed.Unexpectedly, the effect of the medicine took effect so quickly, Ruan Qiu and A Xi hurried over to support him, Li Yu tightly covered his abdomen with one hand, his eyes were bloodshot.
Suddenly, the blue veins on Li Yu's forehead twitched, and he spit out a big mouthful of black blood from his head. The wooden floor was instantly stained red, and most of the decoction he had just drank was also vomited out. He convulsed, closed his eyes and fell down. down.
Ruan Qiu suddenly thought of Yun Qi's haste when she left, he forced himself to calm down, supported Li Yuping to lie down, opened the jade bottle holding the Da Huan Pill with trembling hands, the more anxious he became, the more chaotic he became.
"I come!"
Seeing that he was still unable to get out the elixir, Ah Xi hurried over to help, but just as she stretched out her hand, her heart beat faster and hit her chest violently, making her breathless, and almost fell on Li Yu's body.
"what happened to you?"
Ruan Qiu finally poured out the golden elixir full of aura. Seeing Ah Xi sitting slumped on the ground with one hand propped on the ground, his forehead was full of big men, and his complexion turned pale in an instant. A trace of worry flashed in his eyes, and he quickly pinched Li Yu's lips. Jaw to let him open his mouth.
A Xi shook her head, her eyes were also very confused, the blood flow in her body seemed to be much faster, but seeing Ruan Qiu holding the Great Return Pill, but unable to make Li Yu open her mouth, she didn't care about the discomfort on her body, so she rushed over and tried hard Open Li Yu's mouth.
She used a lot of strength to pry open Li Yu's mouth, which was tense before he passed out, and now his whole body is stiff. Ruan Qiu was secretly happy, and was about to feed him the Da Huan Pill, when Ah Xi's face suddenly changed. He stared round his eyes.
"He's out of breath!"
Ruan Qiu's heart trembled, and then he put his hand in front of Li Yu's nose, but he didn't feel a trace of breath, and Qiu Shui's eyes widened.
"How could it be so fast..."
But looking at the Da Huan Pill in his hand, Ruan Qiu gritted his teeth, and opened Li Yu's mouth to stuff the Da Huan Pill, but when the elixir was about to be fed to his mouth, he was caught by a limp hand, When he raised his eyes, he saw Li Yu's painful expression.
Ah Xi's heart was full of ups and downs, and she couldn't even remember when the pain on her body disappeared. When she saw him wake up, she was overjoyed.
"He's awake!"
Only then did Ruan Qiu let go of Li Yu's jaw, with a happy smile on his face as well. He handed the Great Return Pill to Ah Xi, and held Li Yu's wrist. Although the pulse was very weak, it was getting weaker and weaker. Powerful, Li Yu's body is obviously improving.
This all proves the fact that -
"The prescription is right!"
Ruan Qiu said in surprise, Ah Xi nodded with a face full of joy, Li Yu finally recovered, raised his hand weakly to touch his face, gasped and said: "The prescription is right, I just fainted for a while, you guys Don't you want to hit me in the face while I'm unconscious?"
"Hiss, my cheek hurts..."
Hearing what he said, Ruan Qiu and A Xi looked at his cheeks one after another, because when they opened Li Yu's mouth with too much force, there were two groups of bruises on Li Yu's cheeks, and Li Yu himself was extremely He looked at them weakly and bewilderedly.
Two people: "..."
The two of them looked away guiltily, looked at each other, and laughed again.
After putting away the Da Huan Dan and lifting Li Yu to the bed together, Ruan Qiu said with emotion: "It's good that you have nothing to do. This shows that we are usually unlucky, but there are also times when we are lucky."
A Xi also turned her head to avoid Li Yu's probing gaze, and responded crisply: "Yes! There is a saying that says it, it's very good!"
Li Yu felt uncomfortable all over his body, especially his cheeks. Seeing that the two of them were avoiding his eyes, he showed suspicion, "You must have ghosts in your heart, but..." He lay on the bed, heaved a sigh of relief, I closed my eyes again.
"I'm tired, let me rest for a while."
The effect of the medicine has just started, and even though Li Yu passed the test just now, Ruan Qiu became serious again when he heard the words, and felt that he couldn't be happy too early, so he tightly held the Da Huan Dan in his hand, and stood by the bed, "Go to sleep, we Will keep watching you."
"Ok!"
Ah Xi nodded, ready to fight.
Li Yu didn't speak any more. After the effect of the medicine, he quickly fell asleep. This sleep lasted until the next morning.At that time, Ah Xi couldn't stand it anymore and fell asleep on the edge of the bed. Ruan Qiu was the first to notice that he had opened his eyes. Just as he was about to get up, Li Yu looked at Ah Xi and made a silent gesture to him.
Ruan Qiu nodded, and walked to the bed very lightly. Li Yu sat up by himself, looking full of energy, and his face returned to its former ruddy. His eyes lit up again.
"I'm ready."
Ruan Qiu kept watch all night, and now that he was sure that the remaining poison on his body was gone, the burden on his heart was finally put down, and he nodded with a smile in his eyes.
But Li Yu said again: "Then you find me a mirror, I dare not look in the mirror these few days, I want to see if I am disfigured or not."
Ruan Qiu's smile stopped, his voice was still very soft, and he got up and said, "Although I found the correct prescription, the effect of the medicine seems to be too strong. Even you, a Jindan cultivator, can hardly bear it. I'll go and improve the prescription first. , and then detoxify everyone."
As he said that, he smiled at Li Yu, went out, and closed the door. When he closed the door, he heard Li Yu muttering something in the room. After that, there was a scream in the room——
"my face!"
Immediately afterwards, Ah Xi's voice of being awakened came from inside the door, asking her in surprise, but it was Li Yu's accusation that responded to her, his voice full of anger.Ruan Qiu listened in front of the door, covered her lips with a guilty conscience, and coughed lightly, then turned and looked outside the building.
Above the snow-capped mountains, the sun is rising.
