In the evening of the same day, the storm was raging, and Motoharu, Ago and others hid in the tent, feeling that the tent was about to be uprooted by the wind.

Fortunately, their tent and King Zhao's tent occupied two of the best positions to shelter from the wind and rain. Their tents were not blown over, and no unfortunate thing happened like rainwater pouring into them.

In the second half of the night, the rain finally stopped, and Yuan Chun really fell asleep.

But it didn't seem to be long before she heard a noisy noise in a daze, followed by Ah Wu gently pushing her shoulders and shaking her awake: "Adult, wake up!" Ah Wu was originally called Yuanchun "girl", but these days, I hear people call Yuanchun "adult" every day, and she also calls her.

Yuan Chun felt that the upper eyelids seemed to be glued to the lower eyelids, and he couldn't open them at all. She closed her eyes and asked half-asleep, "What's wrong?" "Unless the fire burns my eyebrows, the watch wakes me up! Trap me!

"One of the guards was bitten by a snake while he was on patrol! It seems that the situation is not very good, and Lord Wei wants to ask the girl to hurry up and take a look. Ah Wu frowned slightly.

Who is the snake? …… Why did he bite the guards? …… Who doesn't get better? …… These chaotic thoughts swirled in Yuanchun's chaotic mind for a while before she finally came to her senses, opened her eyes and asked Ah Wu, "Who was bitten by the snake?" "Most of the drowsiness has disappeared.

"It's one of Lord Wei's guards, who was bitten by a snake while patrolling."

Yuan Chun secretly gritted his teeth: "He didn't apply snake repellent medicine......" Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered the heavy rain last night. Perhaps, the snake repellent on the guard was washed away by the rain?

Before leaving Beijing, considering the possibility of drilling into the mountains and forests, the medicines that Yuan Chun brought out of Beijing included snake and insect repellent medicines. This time, when she set off from Chu Xian, she gave Wei Zhicheng some and told Wei Zhicheng to urge her guards to use them regularly, just because she was afraid that these guards would get sick, injured, and die because of the bites of mosquitoes, snakes and scorpions. I didn't expect such an accident to happen!

Yuan Chun finally came to her senses completely, she rubbed her head that was a little dizzy, and while getting dressed, she instructed Qin Zhen, who had also woken up and had been lying in her clothes: "Go and prepare the medical box, cupping." Bring all those snake medicines with you! ”

After getting dressed in a hurry, it was too late to comb the messy hair, so he took the mask and gloves directly, and walked outside the tent while putting on the masks and gloves. Qin Zhen carried the hastily packed medical box on his back and followed closely. Ah Wu asked Ah Zhen to guard the tent and followed him out.

A guard was waiting anxiously outside the tent, and when he saw Yuan Chun coming out, he hurriedly led Yuan Chun to another tent.

When he entered the tent, Yuan Chun saw a baby-faced guard lying on the bunk, his trouser leg rolled up, and his calf was exposed, and a large lump was swollen. Another bearded guard knelt at his feet, bending his head and pushing his mouth into the wound on the baby-faced guard's leg, as if trying to suck the venom of the wound!

"Stop! STOP！ Live...... That mouth! Yuan Chun couldn't help but scream, his voice fierce and high-pitched.

The people in the tent were shocked. Wei Zhicheng bowed slightly to Yuan Chun, and before he could say anything, he saw Yuan Chun rushing straight towards the baby-faced guard.

Yuan Chun strode forward, rushed to the side of the bearded guard, and reached out to pinch his chin, forcing him to look up. The bearded guard instinctively wanted to resist, but immediately reacted that the delicate and weak woman in front of him was the object of his superiority and his order to protect, and he held back stiffly.

"Open your mouth!" Yuan Chun ordered him harshly.

The bearded man instinctively obeyed and opened his mouth. The feeling in my heart is extremely strange, and I feel that this posture is strangely familiar and strangely reversed, and it seems to be ...... I'm being molested by a little girl?! What a evil door!

Yuan Chun checked his mouth and confirmed that he had not inhaled snake venom before letting go of his chin and snorting coldly: "Do you dare to suck snake venom even if your gums are rotten like this?" It's just looking for death! ”

She pushed her beard to the side, and the beard, which was already awkward, took the opportunity to jump to the side and get out of the way.

Yuan Chun squatted down beside the baby-faced guards, examining the wounds while popularizing common sense to the guards: "You remember: rotten teeth, swollen and bleeding gums, and wounds in the mouth...... You can't give people snake venom! Otherwise, it's not saving people, it's looking for death! Even if you spit it out immediately after sucking it, the snake venom will enter your body through the wound in your mouth, and it is likely to kill you! ”

Wei Zhicheng slightly hugged his fist and bowed to Yuan Chun: "Thank you Master Shang Yi for your advice, we remember!" He patted the bearded shoulder. The bearded man smiled wryly, and looked worriedly at the baby-faced guard.

After Yuan Chun mentioned a few words of first aid common sense, he ignored them. He took out a scalpel directly from the medical box, made two deep crosses on the wound of the baby-faced guard's snake bite, and then directly used a fire cup to pluck out the poisonous blood from the wound. It's much more effective than sucking by mouth – even if it's a little late to pull the poison out by then. He also had the snake pills he took orally fed to the guard.

The snake venom in this guard is a mixture of hemolytic toxin and neurotoxin, and the amount of poison excreted by that snake is also very large. Now, the toxin has spread, and he does not have the right antivenom in his hand to save his hope...... It's slim!

The baby-faced guard first glanced at the beard gratefully, and then asked Yuan Chun with fear, "Big ...... My lord...... I...... Will...... Die? His voice trembled violently, and his eyes were a little red.

Yuan Chun was silent, a little speechless for a while, not knowing whether to lie to him or tell him the truth.

"I'll do my best to save you! But if you have any last words, you can also confess! She told the truth after all. Although telling him this harsh truth would have undermined his confidence, the patient had a ...... about his condition. The right to know!

Yes...... In the tent, a low exclamation sounded, and the atmosphere suddenly calmed down. Wei Zhicheng and the others looked at the baby-faced guard, their eyes were red, and the bearded guard with five big and three thick cheeks cried directly.

The baby-faced guard was stunned, then burst into tears and stayed there.

The bearded man wiped his tears with his sleeve, went around to the other side, crouched down beside the baby-faced guard, took one of his hands, and said, "Good brother, don't be discouraged! The medical skills of Master Shang Yi are passed down by the gods...... You know, adults like to be pretending to be modest...... Big...... Adults will definitely be able to save you......"

He said a lie that he didn't quite believe, and tried to laugh twice and comfort his good brother, but he couldn't laugh at all. I could only keep a pair of bloodshot eyes wide open, trying not to let tears fall.

The baby-faced guard laughed miserably and called out in a low voice, "Big brother......"

His other hand, trembling, reached into his arms and pulled out a small cloth bag.

"Tell Yun Niang: It's me...... I'm sorry for her! I shouldn't be looking for credit! Ask for big brother...... Let's find her a good family......" The baby-faced guard's tears welled up, his voice choked out of tune, and he stuffed the small cloth bag into the bearded man's hand, "This ...... To Yun Niang...... Dowry ......"

"No, no, no! Yun Niang only likes you! You're engaged! I'm still waiting for you to be my brother-in-law! You can't do this...... You are like this, how can I explain to Yun Niang......" The bearded man grabbed the small cloth bag, hugged the hand of the baby-faced guard, and cried like a child.

Wonchun needs to be assisted by the medical system to stay focused without being distracted by their cries and voices.

She plucked the poison from the baby-faced guard and applied snake medicine to his wounds. Then she stood up, took two steps back, and said calmly: "Take off his shirt and trousers, and expose his chest, abdomen, hands, and legs, and I will give him a needle!" ”

"This ......," Wei Zhicheng hesitated slightly. After all, there is a difference between men and women, and to let a man show his chest and abdomen like this in front of a woman is afraid that it will be a defilement of the reputation of the doctor!

But the bearded man listened to Yuan Chun's words, and couldn't wait to start taking off his baby-faced clothes, so that it would be convenient for Yuan Chun to perform the needle. Wei Zhicheng couldn't say anything more.

Shui Xiao, who didn't know when he came to the door of the camp, couldn't help but clench his fists tightly. He lowered his head slightly, closed his eyes, and kept saying to himself in his heart: Hurry up and do the right! Hurry up and do the right thing! Hurry up with authority...... Resisted the urge to stop it.

When he was in the capital, although Yingzhou would also diagnose men, when he needed to perform needles, he could be done by the imperial doctor. This time, because of the shortage of doctors and inconvenient transportation, the imperial doctors and folk doctors who went out of Beijing with them had long been scattered all over the country. In this deep mountain and wild forest, where to find a doctor to perform acupuncture on behalf of Yingzhou?

Regardless of whether the guard can save him or not, if he prevents Yingzhou from saving people, this matter will become a haze between him and Yingzhou, and may bring some additional variables to their marriage.

But if you don't stop it...... As soon as he thought that Yingzhou would look at other men up and down, he felt ...... in his heart It's like it's fried!

At that time, why didn't I do my best to stop her from coming to Jiangnan?! In his heart, there was a deep remorse.

Yuan Chun didn't pay attention to Shui Xiao at all, and said to Wei Zhicheng: "The snake venom in him is too strong and too fierce, the snake medicine I brought is not the right symptom, and the effect of detoxification will not be too good." If he could find an herb, he might be able to save his life! This herb is called nine-headed black ginseng, and it belongs to one of the succulent ginsengs, which is relatively rare. This season......" she made a gesture and described what the thing called nine-headed black ginseng looked like.

Hearing Yuan Chunlian say two "he", Shui Xiao felt an unspeakable anxiety, bitterness and pain in his heart.

At that time, I should have done my best to stop her from coming to Jiangnan! Or, should I stop her from taking the path to Xianzhou! She should be left in Chuxian County and let her go with the brigade......

The bearded man first said that he wanted to look for herbs, and then a dozen or so guards expressed their willingness to look for them.

Wei Zhicheng said: "It's not dawn yet, it's just raining heavily, the ground is very slippery, that snake may still be hiding nearby, and there may be other dangers in the dark night...... In short, in groups of two, everything is careful! Pull everything back and give it to Master Shang for identification. ”

The guards split up to look for herbs.

Yuan Chun began to perform needles for the baby-faced guards to suppress toxicity.

Shui Xiao instructed the leader of his guards: "You send a message to our people: if anyone is willing to help find herbs, they can also go find them together, but pay attention to safety." ”

When he had said that, he sat down at the door of the tent, facing out of the tent. He didn't want to see the scene in the tent that drove him crazy, but he didn't want to leave it, so he just sat here.

The baby-faced guard's face became darker and darker, and he began to feel more and more difficult to breathe, more and more dizzy and nauseous, his body became more and more painful, and he couldn't stop shaking, and his spirit became more and more trance......

A desperate fear slowly grabbed him.

He looked at Yuan Chun and suddenly said, "The adults don't know yet...... My name, right? My name is Cao Yuan...... Cao ...... It's Cao Cao's Cao, the kite...... It's the eagle's kite...... The bearded ...... just now Call Cui Gui ......" Speaking of this, tears welled up in his eyes again.

His words came into his ears, making Yuan Chun's heart feel a kind of pain.

She wanted to hug her head and cry, she wanted to shout, she wanted to scream...... However, her body, which was semi-controlled by the medical system, allowed her to remain calm and focused, and continue to perform the needle.

She could only say without emotion: "Okay, I remember!" Your name is Cao Kite, Cao Cao's Cao, and the Eagle Kite. The bearded one is called Cui Gui, and he has a younger sister named Yun Niang......"

Cao Kite's face showed a little smile. In the smile, there seemed to be an unspeakable pain: "Yes...... Yun Niang...... It's a pity ......"

Little by little, time passed.

Yuan Chun applied the needle with all his strength, and combined with a variety of drugs, to suppress the toxins in Cao Yuan's body.

But the poison in Cao Kite's place is too violent, and the poison is too deep! When the sky was twilight, blood gushed out of his mouth and nose, and the convulsions became more and more violent, and Shui Xiao had to come to hold him down. His wheezing voice became more and more coarse, and it seemed that in the next second, he would not be able to breathe up......

Yuan Chun knew: he couldn't save him! No matter how powerful the medical system is, it is only limited to the scope of medical skills, not the elixir of immortals...... Following the natural flaws of the sisters Satoru and Ajin, she once again experienced the frustration of being powerless!

"My lord! Herbs found! Do you think it's this? A guard covered in mud and water and with blood marks on his body rushed in, holding a grass plant high in his hand, and looked at Yuan Chun with hope.

Yuan Chun used the medical system to identify it: No!

"It'...... No! Yuan Chun looked at him calmly and calmly, "There is no need to look for herbs anymore." Go and call Cui Gui back to see Cao Kite for the last time! ”

"Isn't it?!" The guard was a little depressed, "But Brother Cui broke his legs for this medicine...... I said no; He had to say yes, he had to pick ......."

Yuan Chun deeply felt: Disaster is not a one-way street! "Then what's wrong with Cui Gui?"

"Brother Cui told me to send the medicine back first, and then find someone to save him!"

"Then why don't you hurry up and save your big brother Cui?! Don't let Cui Gui have another accident! Yuan Chun snatched the grass in his hand, and carefully placed the weed that Cui Gui found by breaking his leg and placing it in Cao Yuan's hand.

The guard hurriedly ran away.

Yuan Chun withdrew from the medical system. An indescribable exhaustion pervaded her body, and she felt as if she were about to collapse; All kinds of emotions suppressed by the medical system also hit her like a mountain. She sat on one side of the tent on her legs, hugging her knees, her head bowed, her nose sour, her eyes swollen, and tears falling from her eyes......

"Don't be sad!" Shui Xiao walked over and reached out to hold her hand, "You are just a doctor, not an immortal, you can't save everyone!" ”

Yuan Chun nodded: she knows!

But this time, if it weren't for her coming to Jiangnan, if it wasn't for protecting her, Cao Yuan wouldn't have come to Jiangnan, naturally wouldn't have been bitten by poisonous snakes, and would not have been separated from his beloved girl Yin and Yang......

She couldn't sit in the capital and turned a deaf ear to the situation in Jiangnan; But after she came here...... These guards with her, I don't know how many more people will have accidents!

She knows that it is difficult to have both worlds! She also knew she couldn't save everyone! In the past few years, she has been doing psychological construction for herself, so that she can learn to give up, learn to let go, and learn to accept all kinds of feelings of powerlessness and frustration. But now, when death inevitably happened in front of her, she still couldn't help but feel sad!

Perhaps, she thought, this is the difference between her and those battle-hardened doctors!

Seeing that she lowered her head and didn't speak, Shui Xiao hesitated for a moment, finally sat down beside her, and said softly: "Yingzhou, save the people you can save, this is fine!" Don't embarrass yourself too much! ”

Yuan Chun nodded again. Her throat choked, and she still couldn't say a word.

I don't know how long later, there was a commotion outside the tent. Yuan Chun hurriedly cleaned up his mood, stood up, and broke free from Shui Xiao's hand by the way.

The beard named Cui Gui was carried in a simple stretcher and placed beside Cao Yuan. He was already crying tears, half lying on Cao Kite's side, grabbing Cao Kite's hand, and shouting indiscriminately: "Good brother! Wake up! Wake up! ”

Yuan Chun restarted the medical system and re-injected the needle on Cao Yuan's body.

With a few punctures, the trembling on Cao Yuan's body eased a little, and his eyes slowly opened. He looked around, seemed to feel something, squeezed Cui Gui's hand hard, and whispered, "Big brother......"

"Hey! Ay! Ay! Big brother is here! Cui Gui wiped his face with his sleeve again, and the snot and tears on his face were a mess.

"Take care! Marry...... Makeup...... To give...... Yun Niang ...... "His voice became softer and softer, and finally it was almost inaudible. His hands hung limply; His eyes were not closed. In those eyes with dilated pupils, there seemed to be a faint smile of sadness. It seems that before he died, he saw the scene of his beloved girl getting married with the dowry he gave......

In the tent, Cui Gui's tragic cry broke out.

Even if the medical system is open, Yuan Chun can't stand such a scene.

"Cui Gui, help Cao Yuan close her eyes!" After a while, Wei Zhicheng whispered.

Cui Gui cried as he stretched out his hand and closed Cao Yuan's eyes.

Wei Zhicheng asked Yuanchun to take a look at Cui Gui's leg injury, but Cui Gui suddenly burst out and yelled at Yuanchun: "Isn't your medical skill passed down by the gods?" Why can't even a few snake venoms be cured?! ”

Yuan Chun had nothing to say, and he didn't want to argue anything with him.

Shui Xiao's face changed, and when he was about to have a seizure, he saw that Wei Zhicheng had already slapped Cui Gui in the face.

Wei Zhicheng's face was dark, and he shouted angrily: "Cui Gui! What are you doing?! When I went to Beijing to pick people, I had already made it clear: this time I went to the south of the Yangtze River, life and death are unpredictable, and whether to go or not is all voluntary! Cao Yuan had an accident, and it was his fate. If you offend Lord Shangyi, aren't you afraid that military law will be ruthless? ”

There is another question that Wei Zhicheng didn't dare to ask: This time he went to the south of the Yangtze River, the emperor had already made a clear decree, the only son in the family would not go, and those who had no heirs would not go! This Cao Kite, when he saw his tender face, he once asked him if he was the only son in the family and whether he had an heir. But this Cui Gui testified for Cao Yuan: Cao Yuan just looked at her face and was tender, and she actually had a wife and children. Now, Cui Gui personally said that he wanted Cao Yuan to be his brother-in-law...... Seriously investigate it, this is a disobedience to the decree! He, the leader of the guards, can't get out of it! Now, I only hope that this matter can be vaguely passed, begging the people above to open one eye and close one eye!

Cui Gui was slapped back to his senses by Wei Zhicheng, and he didn't dare to play tricks anymore, but he still kept wiping his tears.

Wei Zhicheng took a deep breath, bowed to Yuan Chun and said, "The army is not strict in governing the army, I hope that the lord will forgive the sin!" ”

Yuan Chun waved his hand weakly, not wanting to say anything, and said lightly: "I'll look at his legs." "I can't save Cao Kite's life, but I may be able to save your leg.

Wei Zhicheng had an open fracture of the tibia of his right leg, and the flesh and blood of the wound were blurred. Taking advantage of the bright sky, Yuan Chun performed a reduction operation on him, and handed over the doctor's order to Wei Zhicheng, so he closed the medical system and walked to his tent tiredly.

Shui Xiao watched Yuan Chun leave, and turned his head and called Wei Zhicheng over: "Lord Wei, this time I went south, the emperor already had a holy message: the only son in the family will not go, and the one who has no heir will not go!" That Cao Kite seems to be Cui Gui's...... A brother-in-law who hasn't passed through the door? ”

The phrase "brother-in-law who has not passed through the door" made Wei Zhicheng want to laugh a little. But thinking that His Royal Highness King Zhao asked about this, he obviously guessed a little trick, and couldn't help but laugh and said: "I haven't had time to ask about this matter." I don't know what His Highness means ......? ”

Shui Xiao said lightly: "I hope Lord Wei will take care of his subordinates." If someone dares to talk nonsense and damage Jia Shangyi's reputation......" He leaned towards Wei Zhicheng slightly, and said with a sense of oppression, "Look who I have spared!" ”

Wei Zhicheng suddenly realized, and hurriedly said: "I understand the humble position!" Your Highness, rest assured, no one will talk nonsense. ”

Shui Xiao glanced at him lightly: "Remember your words!" "Step away.

Wei Zhicheng wiped the sweat from the corners of his forehead and turned around to get busy.

Yuan Chun returned to his tent and fell on the mattress weakly, and Qin Zhen took Ah Wu and Ah Zhen to the ground, and hurriedly served her to wash her face, wash her hands and feet.

She was physically and mentally exhausted, but after she withdrew from the medical system, her mind was in a mess. She tried hard to tell herself: she had done her best, and Cao Kite's death was not to blame! But the scene before Cao Yuan's death, his dead expression, lingered in her mind.

Maybe when people are particularly tired, their spirits will also be particularly fragile, especially prone to sadness, tears, frustration, and crying. Although she told herself: don't think about those who have and don't, don't blame yourself, it's no wonder you! But in the end, she still couldn't control her emotions, from tearful eyes, to tears, to crying until she sobbed.

Qin Zhen, Ah Wu, and Ah Zhen surrounded her to persuade her, but the more they persuaded her, the more sad she became......

Suddenly, the sound of a flute sounded outside the tent. The familiar flute sound couldn't help but make Yuan Chun stunned: This is Shui Xiao playing the flute! What he played was a piece that she had jokingly called "Lullaby" before.

At that time, Shui Xiao played this song in his Pu Xiuyuan and invited her to taste it. The melody was melodious and lofty, and the weather was perfect for sleeping, and she was so relaxed that she accidentally fell asleep.

Shui Xiao was dissatisfied.

Yuan Chun quibbled and said: "It's this piece that has a hypnotic effect." Why don't you call it "Lullaby"! ”

Shui Xiao is playing this tune outside her tent at this moment, is he persuading her to sleep well?

She reached out to cover her eyes, trying to control her emotions and empty her mind......

I don't know how long it took, but she finally fell asleep in a daze.

After falling asleep, she experienced many messy dreams. In the dream, there are many indescribable painful images, but there is a wisp of flute sound, which is always guiding her direction.

At the end of the dream, she seemed to have returned to the Puxiu Garden in the Zhaowang Mansion and sat on the edge of the Chengbi Pond with Shui Xiao.

He played the flute, and she played the flute......
