Chapter 117
The morning sun rises from the east, and the air is so solemn that it seems that it can't be waved.
The Northern Yan people were about to attack the city, and although Feng Ge knew that she was powerless in terms of force, she was reluctant to leave.
Under the golden light of the morning sun, Guan Linsen's straight back stood like a javelin, he stood there, Daheng's backbone was there, the sun dyed his battle robe with a faint layer of gold, hunting and flying in the wind, his side face was as cold as a knife, and his calm eyes reflected the blood-colored battlefield that was brutally fighting, like a flame that invaded the battlefield.
There was no material to repair the ruined city wall, and the Beiyan soldiers easily stepped over the place that used to be the city wall, looking at the Beiyan people like ant colonies, Guan Linsen's brows did not move.
Every command he delivered was short and precise.
A spear in his hand, every time he stabs, it is a human life that is harvested, and the blood splattered out blooms on the battlefield, which is the most extreme cruelty in the world, and for the people of Daheng, it is also the most extreme beauty.
All the invading enemies who rushed to Guan Linsen were already lying at his feet, his face was calm, the spear in his hand had been soaked in blood, he was condescending, looking at the Beiyan people outside the city and smiling coldly, his smile was full of fearlessness of death, which calmly shocked Feng Ge.
Gao Guda was under the city, far away, he once again took the strong bow and black feather arrow, squinted his eyes slightly, the bowstring sounded, and the feather arrow flew out quickly.
Feng Ge, who was standing in the distance watching Guan Linsen, was just happy that he had killed the last enemy in front of him, when he saw a black lightning bolt creeping in mid-air, with unparalleled energy, breaking through the air, and stabbing into Guan Linsen's abdomen with a fierce momentum.
Guan Linsen's body shook suddenly.
The surrounding Daheng soldiers saw it and couldn't help but exclaim, while the Beiyan soldiers laughed proudly: "Hahaha, your general is going to die, don't ...... soon"
Before the word "surrender" was spoken, the proud Beiyan soldier opened his eyes and slowly fell in a pool of blood, and when he died, he looked at his chest in surprise and stunned, and his godless eyes seemed to ask a question: "Where did this spear head come from?"
Behind him was Guan Linsen, who stood proudly, and he drew back the spear that pierced his human body little by little, and stood in the wind, smiling as if the arrow had not hurt him at all.
The Daheng soldier took a second look at him and found that there were no arrows on his body at all, perhaps, it was really just an illusion just now, that arrow just grazed his arm.
They put their hearts at ease, their morale was even higher, and they rose up to fight back against the influx of Beiyan people.
Feng Ge was not at ease, taking advantage of the fact that the Beiyan people had gradually been killed, she ran towards Guan Linsen, and when she saw her, Guan Linsen showed a smile, wanting to say that she was fine, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she wrinkled her eyebrows in pain.
Feng Ge saw his chest, he couldn't see it clearly from a distance, but when he got closer, he could see that the small mouth was constantly bleeding bright red blood.
"Shhhh Seeing Feng Ge's panic, Guan Linsen smiled at her slightly, and held his fingers in front of his lips.
Feng Ge understands that at the time of the war, the safety of the boss can affect people's hearts the most, otherwise, Xiao Yanran would not be injured like that, and she still held on to her breath, just because there was no commander in the army, and she couldn't feel at ease.
Now, she regretted it very much, regretted why she agreed to let Guan Linsen take over Xiao Yanran's commanding position, if it weren't for that, Guan Linsen would not have been injured.
"I'm fine. Guan Linsen stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on her face, but found that his hands were covered with blood, and he retracted his hand in a sneer, but Feng Ge grabbed his hand and called loudly: "Jin Huang!"
"Well, I'll just say, it's not going to be good. Jin Huang, who had Guan Linsen's face, appeared.
Guan Cheng picked up Guan Linsen, took him down the city tower with his face covered, and urgently sent him back for treatment.
The military doctor was summoned for treatment, and after some examination, he said that fortunately the arrow missed and did not hurt the vital point, but he had to lie still and wait until the arrow wound was completely healed before he could move, otherwise the wound would collapse, and it would be even worse than now.
The routine of the evening is about to start again, Guan Cheng leaves, and goes to Dianjiangtai to assist Jin Huang, who is not familiar with the process.
Only Feng Ge, Guan Linsen, and Xiao Yanran, who was still unconscious, were left in the tent.
"I shouldn't have let you go. Feng Ge couldn't help but burst into tears again.
Guan Linsen's face was pale, his forehead was shiny with beads of sweat, his breathing was a little unsteady, but he struggled to earn his eyes, looked at Feng Ge, and tried to squeeze out a smile: "I'm really fine, I don't believe you look ......"
In order to reassure Feng Ge, Guan Linsen still wanted to make a few movements, but as soon as his hand was raised, a throbbing pain from the wound made him gasp.
"Don't move! the wound has just been wrapped!" Feng Ge hurriedly held him down.
After continuous battles and blood loss, he still held on for a long time, at this time in front of Feng Ge, as soon as his spirit relaxed, the severe pain quickly spread from the wound to the whole body, and for a while, the whole body was soft and could not use a trace of strength.
Under the candlelight, Guan Linsen's face became more and more pale, his lips were also dry and peeling, showing a gray color, and he wanted to comfort Feng Ge again, but his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and his breathing became shorter and more chaotic.
But even if he was so seriously injured, he still didn't show weakness, and the cold arrogance and strength between his eyebrows still existed.
He closed his eyes slightly, and there was a coolness on his forehead, Feng Ge was wiping the blood on his face for him, and then, there was only the upper half of his body wrapped in gauze.
"Don't ...... Dirty ......" Guan Linsen wanted to stop her, but he couldn't even lift his fingers, he just trembled slightly, just this one action had already made him gasp.
This arrow was not lightly wounded.
"What's the smell?" Jin Huang, who had finished ordering the soldiers, came back and saw Feng Ge rubbing his body for Guan Linsen heartbrokenly, seeing her come in, Feng Ge glared at her, Jin Huang hurriedly turned around and covered his eyes: "Ah, I didn't see anything." ”
After a moment, he turned his head suspiciously: "Didn't I say it, there is a strange smell on his body, don't you smell it?"
Feng Ge shook his head: "I can only smell the smell of blood." ”
"This smell is very familiar, although it is covered by blood, it is a little light, I want to think about it......" Jin Huang tilted his head and thought for a long time, and finally clapped his hands for a long time, "By the way, this is the taste of the Soul Breaking Flower." ”
There is only one truth, and that is ...... Guan Linsen was poisoned.
There are only ordinary gold medicine in the army, and when they go to war, they rely on iron pieces to cut people's heads, and the iron spikes poke people's hearts, and it is not enough to come and go, and they can also borrow arrows from grass boats for recycling, and this kind of thing is time-consuming and a waste of feelings, and it is really expensive to convert one-time items into a single loss, and normal people will not apply poison to arrows in conventional wars.
Such a rich and generous person, obviously the military rank will not be too low, too low will not have so much money wasted, and if it is wasted, it will not be wasted on ordinary people.
Looking at the Northern Yan army under the city, only those who can have money and leisure to smear poison on arrows are ......
"Goguda. Feng Ge spoke up.
"Goguda. Jin Huang, who was squatting on the side, also spoke at the same time.
The two glanced at each other, Jin Huang raised the arrow in his hand, and the end of the arrow was engraved with three words "Gao Guda", well, it turned out that it was so boring.
I know what kind of poison it is, and I know who did it.
"Do you have a way to detoxify?" Feng Ge looked at Jin Huang, who was playing with the arrow branch in his hand.
"Yes. "Lazy voice.
Feng Ge's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "How to solve it." ”
"Take the antidote, pour it into your mouth, and it's solved. Jin Huang smiled sheepishly.
Feng Ge was very unhappy in his heart, and when his life was at stake, he was still joking!
also saw the unhappiness in Feng Ge's heart, Jin Huang waved his hand: "Hey, what are you anxious about, isn't Dugu Huaixin in Feng County?"
That's right, Dugu Huaixin, the patriarch of the medicine clan of Western Xia, is here, how did he forget.
Feng Ge got up and wanted to run to Feng County, but Jin Huang pressed her shoulder: "You stay here and don't move, take good care of them, I'll go and carry people over for you." You're running so slowly, and by the time you get to the Four Elephants, you're going to die. ”
Without waiting for Feng Ge to come back to his senses, Jin Huang ran away without a trace.
Obviously a warm-hearted and righteous person, how can he owe so much, Feng Ge shook his head, at this time, Guan Cheng returned to the tent and took care of Xiao Yanran and Guan Linsen with Feng Ge, Xiao Yanran's injuries have stabilized, but it takes time for his wounds to recover slowly.
But Guan Linsen had a repetition.
Although the poisonous blood has been released as much as possible, the residual toxicity is still very violent, Guan Linsen's body trembled violently, Feng Ge reached out to his skin, his hands were hot, and in a drowsiness, he was not sleeping well, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, and there was a little light in his eyes, but they were scattered and unfocused, and he didn't know whether to sleep or wake up.
Guan Cheng was in the forbidden army in the past, and he had also seen the scene of people in the palace being implicated in poisoning because of the concubine's infighting, and in order to protect himself, he also asked the imperial doctor some questions about the medicinal properties of the poison, although he didn't know what kind of poison it was, but according to what Jin Huang just said, he remembered some of the theoretical knowledge that the imperial doctor had taught him.
"Don't worry too much, although he is now poisoned but not fatal, with the speed of the golden girl, he can go back and forth tonight, and Guan Gongzi's poisonous injury will not worry about his life. Guan Cheng comforted.
He knew Feng Ge's identity, he had met him in the palace at that time, she was just a gentle and delicate little girl, who was pressed by the palace rules and had to make a young and old appearance, but she and His Majesty secretly cooked and roasted sweet potatoes in the small kitchen in the palace, in fact, it had long been rumored by the palace maids, such a carefree little girl, but now she is in a dangerous place where the city may be broken at any time.
Looking at her, Guan Cheng remembered his little sister, the little snow ball with pigtails and jumping up and down, but died in a southward invasion of the Northern Yan.
Guan Cheng couldn't help but have a firm belief in his heart: no matter what, he must keep her safe!
Turning his head and seeing Xiao Yanran lying there quietly, he thought for a while: "Well, and for General Xiao." ”
Feng Ge lay on the edge of the couch, her eyebrows were full of tiredness, she looked at Guan Linsen's abnormally red face burned by high heat in a drowsy state, but said: "Captain Guan killed the enemy for a day today, it is really hard, you also have injuries on your body, now the military doctors have already dealt with the soldiers' injuries, you can also go and bandage it well, here I am." ”
Guan Cheng didn't expect Feng Ge to notice him, and he was even more grateful in his heart, he was indeed injured on his shoulder, although it was not serious, but he had been busy with military affairs and had no time to deal with it, and he counted the number of soldiers, and took care of Xiao Yanran and Guan Linsen, and now the wound seemed to have some signs of inflammation and suppuration.
Feng Ge said: "After you heal your injuries in a while, you can rest well, I don't know what the situation will be tomorrow, it will be another hard battle, and your physical strength will be lost." ”
What he said also makes sense, Guan Cheng also knows that it is useless for him to poke here now, but he is just anxious, there will be a tough battle to fight tomorrow, no matter what today, he must force himself to rest.
"General Xiao doesn't have any problem now, Guan Gongzi's current high fever is caused by the residual poison that has not been cleared, and after a while, if there is no antidote, I am afraid that it will burn even more, and now his body can't suffer from the wind and cold at all, if he sweats too much for a while, he needs to wipe off the sweat and change into dry clothes, His Royal Highness is only afraid of some inconvenience here......
Feng Ge glanced up at him: "It's been a few days since the war, human life is just grass mustard, whether it is the Daheng people or the Beiyan people, now in this place, they are just human flesh, and what kind of men and women are divided." There are only two kinds of people who can fight and those who can't fight, you can fight, you have to retain your physical strength, I can't fight, I need to rely on your protection, and please take care of the captain's own body, my life, and trust the captain's hands. ”
"Your Highness is serious. Guan Cheng was shocked and bowed down.
Feng Ge looked at him and said two words lightly: "Go ahead." ”
Guan Cheng knew that he couldn't persuade her, so he had to go down to find a military doctor, and then go back to his tent to rest.
After he left, Feng Ge sat quietly on the edge of the bed.
There was silence in the tent, except for the sound of breathing and the burning of the candles.
The candle burned shorter and shorter, about an hour had passed, Feng Ge was anxious, but she was helpless, she knew that it would not be finished without two hours from here to Fengxian, not to mention, the war was long, I was afraid that Dugu Huaixin was not in Sixiangguan, even if Jin Huang was fast enough, he would have to find some time.
In case of...... In case Dugu Huaixin got the news early, he would have already left Feng County......
Thinking of this, Feng Ge's heart was cold, she held Guan Linsen's hand tightly, and the uneasiness in her heart was all in her gently trembling hands.
After a while, as Guan Cheng said, Guan Linsen's body became hotter and hotter, on his forehead and neck, sweat gathered more and more, and when he touched his body, his underwear was soaked with sweat, Feng Ge probed his nose again, only to feel that even the breath he exhaled was very hot.
Guan Linsen, who was in a deep coma, frowned slightly, opened his mouth slightly, and his breathing became more and more rapid, as if he was enduring extreme pain.
Feng Ge didn't know how to wipe his body.
In the choice of cold water and hot water, she thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to choose warm water, since the start of the war, there are many wounded soldiers in the tent, and hot water is also continuously supplied for twelve hours a day. Otherwise, she should start by boiling hot water, but I am afraid that the fire has not even been lit for three days and three nights.
Feng Ge gently lifted the thin quilt covering him, and when he was healing, Guan Cheng had already changed Guan Linsen's clothes once, but now he was soaked with sweat again, and the wet clothes were tightly attached to his body, vaguely outlining his strong and tight muscles.
Anyway, it's not the first time, Feng Ge is familiar with taking off Guan Linsen's sweat-soaked underwear, exposing his naked body, Guan Linsen's chest rises and falls violently, and every breath seems to be a great pain for him.
At this time, it was already dark at night, only a small candlelight illuminated the room, and the dim firelight was blown by the wind, swaying, blowing the shadow of the phoenix song falling on the tent cloth, which was not as real as it was.
I saw that Guan Linsen's exposed upper body was a light wheat color, compared with those adult Northwest men in the military camp who were exposed to the sun all day long, he was still an undergrown teenager, his body was strong and well-proportioned, the lines were smooth, and the tight muscles could be clearly seen under the skin and flesh of the chest and abdomen, like an iron block wrapped in a layer of flannel, the strength was hidden, and the skin was still smooth and flexible as good velvet to the touch.
At this time, his shoulders, chest, and abdomen were full of beads of sweat, which were illuminated by the faint candlelight, which was even more crystal clear, and even more intriguing.
However, it was based on his extreme pain.
Feng Ge stared without saying a word for a moment, picked up the hand towel, soaked it in warm water, wrung it out, first wiped the sweat off his forehead, then down his neck, and then wiped it carefully, then his heaving chest.
She accidentally touched the wound on her chest for a while, Guan Linsen's brows tightened a little, he moved slightly, and a few muffled sounds came out of his mouth, but he couldn't hear what he was saying.
The bandages wrapped around the chest are too thin and thin, the war has been fought for too long, and even these necessary treatment supplies are in short supply, and the bandages are washed and reused, used and washed, back and forth, the bandages are already thin and transparent, and after a few more washes, they are even more dilapidated like rotten strips of cloth, which can only barely have an effect.
But in a situation like Guan Linsen's with an extremely deep wound, the bandage quickly lost its function.
The wound was already soaked with a blood-red color, Feng Ge couldn't help but stretch out his hand and wanted to hold it, but he also knew in his heart that it was useless to press it, but it could only add to the pain.
I endured the sadness in my heart, soaked the hand towel in warm water and rubbed it again, spread it out again, Feng Ge gently continued to wipe it for him with his hand, Guan Linsen seemed to be even more uncomfortable, the chest that was originally rising and falling suddenly stagnated, and he shook his head lightly without coughing, Feng Ge hurriedly picked him up, hugged him in his arms, let his chin on his shoulder, and patted it lightly twice, but unexpectedly, he only heard a strange sound in his ears.
Looking at Guan Linsen again, Fang just spurted out a mouthful of blood, and the blood was black.
The poison has invaded the lungs.
Feng Ge panicked in her heart, but she had no choice but to hug him tightly, Guan Linsen's body was like a hot fire, scorching her skin and burning her heart even more.
After a long time, the breathing sound from his ears was no longer short, Feng Ge put him down and lay him down, Guan Linsen was already motionless, although Feng Ge was not very knowledgeable, but at such a time, the people around her were injured several times, and she would also have at least a little common sense.
She stretched out her trembling fingers and pressed them against the small piece of warm skin next to Guan Linsen's neck, and under her trembling fingers, the beating that should have been strong and powerful almost disappeared, only faint enough to almost make her think it was just her hallucination.
If Dugu Huaixin doesn't come again, if he comes, there is no antidote......
Feng Ge stood up, covered his mouth, and forcibly held back to keep himself from crying, is this person who has been trying to protect himself going to die......
watched him die step by step, but he couldn't do anything about it.
This painful cognition tore at her heart and liver, and her whole body froze, unwilling to admit that this was true, and she didn't want to admit that all this was true.
Yes, it's a dream, it must be a dream.
She put the quilt on Guan Linsen's body again and ran outside the tent.
It's early summer, but after sunset, the desert night breeze is still as cold as water.
Blown by the cold wind for a while, Feng Ge's heart sank for the most part, her beautiful face tightened, and a little light of the stars and crescent moon in the sky fell on her face, which was gloomy.
"Shake off. Jin Huang's voice came from afar, and it seemed that a soldier wanted to stop her and ask for a waist card and password, but she was pushed away by her irritable palm.
Feng Ge was stunned for a moment, and then listened to it, it was indeed Jin Huang's signature impatience, yes, and the sound of hurried footsteps was also coming towards her.
She hurriedly greeted each other and explained the situation to the guards soldiers, and Jin Huang, who came out of the shadows, was indeed followed by a familiar figure, Dugu Huaixin, the only heir of the Western Xia Medicine Master clan now.
Jin Huang and Dugu Huaixin rushed all the way back to the barracks, Dugu Huaixin entered the account to inspect, Feng Ge was afraid of disturbing him, so he didn't dare to go in.
Jin Huang looked at her slender figure and felt a little strange.
"What are you doing standing outside in the middle of the night?" she asked, "how are the two inside?"
Feng Ge turned around slightly, and the arrival of Dugu Huaixin made her breathe a sigh of relief, and she was finally able to speak calmly: "General Xiao has been fine, but Guan Linsen's poison is more troublesome, he sweats a lot, his clothes are almost not enough to change, and he has a high fever, and he has been unconscious." ”
In the past few days, the battle situation has been stalemate, Jin Huang has not been idle for a while than the soldiers, she doesn't know whose business she has taken over, either keeping vigil for this soldier, or patrolling for that soldier, for a while against Xiao Yanran's face, and for a while against Guan Linsen's face, no matter when, she watched her work, and I don't know if she has rested.
"You've worked hard, you haven't had a break these days. Feng Ge looked at her face, and it seemed that there was a layer of hoarfrost on her face that was usually hung up, which would only come after extreme tiredness.
"How many days have you not slept?" Feng Ge asked.
Jin Huang thought for a while: "Starting from the first battle of Urn City, I received a lot of orders later, and I didn't have time to sleep." ”
Feng Ge couldn't figure it out: "Fengxian has been surrounded for so long, where did you get the order?"
"Hey, don't say it's this level of encirclement, even if you put me in jail, I can still get the order, hahaha. Jin Huang tried hard to hold back three laughs, but the last one was broken, and some embarrassment turned into a cough.
"Ahem, that's the case, isn't there a broken village next to the Xuantie camp, a little further past the broken village, there is a natural village, and further ahead is Feng County, just in this cracked natural village, that is, the villagers in the broken village moved over. There are many soldiers' homes in the Xuantie camp there, and when I went there, there was an old lady who asked me to take care of his son. ”
Money grubber?
Feng Ge didn't believe it, in this kind of broken village, it was already very good to have a full bite to eat, and there was still money left over for Jin Huang to let her work?
"What benefits did the villagers give you?"
At the mention of this, Jin Huang's eyes glanced around: "You gave me a basket of eggs very generously, about two dozen......"
"That'...... What about eggs?" Feng Ge was suspicious in his heart, eggs have a very short shelf life, and if they are not eaten in time, they will soon deteriorate, so they can't be eaten.
Jin Huang pointed to the tent and pretended to cry insincerely: "Na, give a bastard named Xiao Yanran inside to the soldiers to eat, huh, my eggs." ”
Feng Ge then remembered that a while ago, it was clear that he had been fighting for a long time, and the food had long been exhausted, but suddenly one day, egg soup was brought out in the room, saying that he would give it to the wounded first, and everyone didn't know where it came from, but it was good to have to eat, who cared about so many and not. Unexpectedly, it was Jin Huang's.
"Would you be so generous?" Feng Ge didn't believe it.
Jin Huang looked up at the sky: "What can I do, I'm also desperate, I just put the eggs in the room, but they were turned out by the bastard Xiao Yanran, at that time I was keeping vigil for the old lady's son on the city tower!!!
"Why do you have to keep vigil for the old lady's son? Didn't you just promise to take care of him?"
"Hmm......" Jin Huang lowered her head, her toes unconsciously kicked the stones on the ground, gently coiling around, stirring up a layer of dust on the ground, "her son...... died, and at the time of that charge, he was killed by an arrow from the Northern Yan people...... I didn't complete the commission, and I missed ......"
She raised her head again and looked at Feng Ge: "Before he died, he saw me and said that he knew that I had been helping him, and that he had a wish, hoping to see Daheng peaceful and prosperous, and hoped that his mother could live this life safely and without illness or disaster." ”
"So, I had no choice but to take on this task, peace and prosperity...... Then you have to win this battle first, right?" Jin Huang smiled lightly, "Next, it's your business, without a good and virtuous monarch, the country will not be peaceful and prosperous." ”
Feng Ge looked at her tired face with brilliance, and reached out to hold her hand, although Jin Huang is a killer, he is usually well-maintained, that hand has always been white and smooth, but now it feels rough and cracked by the northwest wind.
What woman doesn't care for her appearance and skin, if it weren't for Feng Ge, she wouldn't have suffered such a sin.
Feng Ge felt a little guilty in his heart, Jin Huang saw it, and said with a smile: "Don't be like this, it's my fault, if I bring more grease to apply it every day, it won't become like this, it's because I didn't prepare myself, it has nothing to do with you, as long as you pay me five taels of silver a month on time." ”
I don't know what to say, Feng Ge took Jin Huang's hand, and secretly made up his mind that if this battle subsides, he will definitely be a good emperor in the future. The people who are guarding here today, Xiao Yanran, Guan Cheng, and these soldiers, Jin Huang, and Lin Sen, will definitely treat them well, and they will not kill them no matter what.
Dugu Huaixin came out of the tent after a short time, his hands were already stained with some blood, and said to Feng Ge: "General Xiao's injury is indeed not a big problem, as long as he recuperates for a few more days, Guan Gongzi's poison, I have sealed several of his acupoints with silver needles, and after a while, he will wake up after decocting a bowl of medicine and drinking it, but to completely remove the toxins, you also need to take a bath with some special medicines, otherwise, there will be sequelae in the future." ”
"There is Mr. Lao Dugu. Feng Ge took his hand as a salute.
Dugu Huaixin said with a smile: "You don't have to thank me, Fengxian is besieged, I am also very troublesome, this battle is over quickly, it will also be of great help to me, that is, ......" He glanced at Jin Huang: "If you dare to kick my door open, drag me out of the bed, and don't even let me wear a piece of clothing, I won't save anyone!"
Feng Ge noticed that Dugu Huaixin was still wearing a white middle coat at this time, and his hair was also messy.
Jin Huang grimaced: "It's all so familiar, and I didn't ask you to come on a blind date, dress so neatly, who do you want to seduce, slightly, you fry your medicine, I still have work to do, see you later." ”
As he spoke, he disappeared into the night like a gust of wind.
Dugu Huaixin looked at it and shook his head: "Such a skin-like woman, who will dare to marry her in the future!"
