Chapter Twenty-Nine: Life After Death
It was almost noon, Xiao Qingzhu was tired and hungry, and she was very frustrated, she broke a corn from the space indiscriminately, and ate it raw without even roasting it.
It's been two whole days of walking, and there is no end to this great forest of reckless hazelnuts. Xiao Qingzhu felt that she might be trapped here, so she threw away her corn cob and began to think about how to survive here.
Carrying such a space where you can plant melons and get melons, and you can plant beans and get beans, it shouldn't be a problem to eat and sleep for a while, but your spiritual power is not enough to keep the space open for a long time. Xiao Qingzhu thought of the danger of the night when Zhang's mansion was burned: this is in the wild, if one day he lacks spiritual power and the space cannot be opened, then where should he go?
Maybe you should use what you have learned to open up a piece of farmland, build a small wooden house, and catch a few small livestock in captivity?
It's a good idea to go back to the garden. It's a pity that I can't build a house.
Why don't you find a cave to fool around? Returning to primitive times seems to be a different kind of romance.
Xiao Qingzhu was thinking wildly, when he suddenly felt a slight noise behind him.
She stood up alertly, slowly surveying her surroundings. Xiao Qingzhu moved his footsteps slightly, trying to get out of here.
The thing next to him seemed to move slightly. Xiao Qingzhu clearly felt that the thing was staring at her.
The comer is not good!
If it was a beast, it shouldn't have such a high IQ to track her. Xiao Qingzhu's cold sweat trickled down: This must be someone, and he came to her all the way!
Xiao Qingzhu just wanted to hide in the space, but at this time, he only heard a slight sound of breaking wind, and a short arrow stabbed into Xiao Qingzhu's left shoulder.
Xiao Qingzhu's left hand went numb on the spot, and then a sharp pain made her almost unable to stand. When I tried to carve out the space, I found that I couldn't do it at all.
This is to want her life!
Xiao Qingzhu tried his last bit of strength and ran in reverse. There was obviously the sound of leaves shaking behind her, Xiao Qingzhu's body technique couldn't be played, she gritted her teeth, the green tendons on her forehead burst out, and she ran as fast as she could.
The potential of a person when it comes to running for his life is enormous. At this moment, Xiao Qingzhu heard a sound of breaking wind again, and this time, the short arrow did not hit her, but was blocked by a dart. At the moment when Xiao Qingzhu fell to the ground, the figure of a group of people came into her eyes, and she recognized the leader at a glance.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness ...... Prince"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Qingzhu felt a blur in front of him. Then a commotion sounded in her ears, and then she didn't know anything.
Dongfang Xun held her: "Miss Liu Si?" His expression became cold: "Quick, the first team will search nearby, and the second team will go back with me!"
Dongfang Xun picked up Xiao Qingzhu and walked out of the forest.
On the carriage, Dongfang Xun held Xiao Qingzhu's hand tightly. This hand is cold, pale, and slippery, and it is distressing to touch. Dongfang Xun looked at Xiao Qingzhu's face and only felt a little strange. After much thought, he reached out and gently pinched her face.
Sure enough, a mask was gently removed by him, and that longing face appeared in front of Dongfang Xun's eyes weakly and truly at this time. Dongfang Xun was stunned for a while before gently stroking her cheek: "I knew it, I knew it was you!"
Although I don't know why she refuses to show her true face, but as him, she is already satisfied. Dongfang Xun looked at Xiao Qingzhu's face for a long time, as if he was looking at a long-lost treasure.
The carriage was speeding along the bumpy mountain road, and Dongfang Xun gently put on a disguise sheet for her.
Whatever her intentions, in short, Dongfang Shun decided not to poke her.
He waited for the day when she spoke herself.
When the two returned to the East Palace, Concubine Liu was simply frightened, and she hurriedly sent someone to invite the imperial doctor to treat Xiao Qingzhu.
Although the small arrow did not stab her vital point, it was quenched with severe poison. The moment the imperial physician pulled out the arrow, a thick medicinal aura suddenly filled the entire room. Xiao Qingzhu had a high fever, her left shoulder was covered with purple spots, and there was an inexplicable horror that Concubine Liu couldn't bear to look at directly.
"Your Highness, this poison is too strange, the old minister doesn't know how to solve it!"
Imperial Physician Chen was sweating profusely, and it was the first time he had seen such a delicate poison in his life.
Dongfang Xun's face became serious: "If you can't solve it, who else can?"
Imperial Physician Chen thought for a moment and said, "Pharmacist Wang Changde. ”
Dongfang Xun immediately ordered: "Send someone to invite Wang Changde over!"
Wang Changde has a high reputation in Dongshan Country and is a great pharmacist who was personally enshrined by the Holy Lord. It is said that Zhang Guifei asked him to secretly refine the medicine in the house for himself, so he was deeply favored.
Ordinary people invite him, but since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been invited, Wang Changde does not dare to slack off, he knows that no matter how great his ability is, this wealth and status are also given by the royal family.
What's more, when he left Dongshan Country, he was not even a scumbag.
When Wang Changde, who was in retreat, was forcibly invited by the eunuchs, he saw Dongfang Xun's face as black as ink. At this time, Xiao Qingzhu was already angry, and Dongfang Xun gave a death order: Miss Liu Si can be cured, it is naturally good, once something goes wrong, then Wang Changde will not be mixed up in Dongshan Country.
Skate on thin ice. Wang Changde came to Xiao Qingzhu's bedside in a panic, and when he saw the wound for the first time, his brows furrowed. Wang Changde dipped a little blood with his fingertips and twisted it, sniffed it again, and his face turned green.
This poison is too familiar to him, and it is his unique secret recipe, Nine Spiders, and Blood Dispersion. He never showed this kind of medicine, how could he be out, and hurt the prince's people?
Seeing that Wang Changde's lips and beard were trembling together, and his head was sweating layer by layer, Concubine Liu thought that it was Wang Yaoshi and couldn't help it. Seeing Concubine Liu's questioning gaze, Wang Changde hurriedly calmed down and pretended to say: "I already understand this poison, give me three days, and I will be able to make an antidote." ”
"Three days?" Concubine Liu frowned, "Miss Liu Si may not be able to survive even one day, how can she do three days?"
The prince said expressionlessly: "I'll give you half a day, and you can find a way to find an antidote." If you can't find it, we'll talk about it then. ”
Wang Changde had heard of the prince's temper a long time ago, and he looked tepid, but in fact he had hills and valleys in his chest. In recent years, Wang Changde has played a lot of sidekicks in Dongshan Kingdom, and it is impossible for the prince not to know.
This hairy boy wants to take the opportunity to get rid of me!
Wang Changde pinched a handful of sweat, and he nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, Weichen will go back and find a way." As he spoke, he left the East Palace.
As soon as he returned to his Changde Gate, Wang Changde plunged into the alchemy room. I have been in retreat for half a month, and it is difficult to guarantee which apprentice has the wrong mind. Sure enough, as soon as he entered the door, he found that the alchemy room had been moved.
The blood of the nine spiders is gone, and the antidote is gone!
Wang Changde immediately guessed who took the antidote. He was silent and called a disciple and asked him to call his closed disciple Liu Yuyan in.
When Liu Yuyan walked in slowly, Wang Changde ordered someone to close the door of the alchemy room. Seeing such a posture, Liu Yuyan immediately guessed what the master asked him to do. He spread out his hands and slowly knelt down.
"Master, it was the disciple who did it. ”
"Nonsense!" Wang Changde was furious, "I didn't care what you did before, and now that Liu Zhaodi is recognized as the crown princess! You stole the master's poison and killed her, and almost killed the teacher!"
Liu Yuyan was silent, he still respected this master.
"Now you hurry up and hand over the antidote to me, I won't pursue this matter. If there is something like this in the future, I will not spare it!"
Liu Yuyan silently took out a porcelain vase, and Wang Changde hurriedly held the porcelain vase in his arms.
