Chapter 66: Chrysanthemum is saved
On the letter, it is very clearly written: Tomorrow and one moment, let Cai Wei go alone to the top of Qixia Mountain under the hundred-year-old pine tree, go early, go late, if they find out that someone else has gone, they will immediately kill the chrysanthemum, if it is the specified time Cai Wei did not go, also kill the chrysanthemum immediately!
In other words, the life and death of chrysanthemums are completely in the hands of Cai Wei!
"Wei'er, my mother thinks it's better to send someone to ambush on the way to Qixia Mountain tonight, and take down all the bandits, when the time comes, she will naturally save the Shen family girl, if you go to Qixia Mountain alone, it's too dangerous!" Du Shi said worriedly.
"Well, just do what my mother says!"
In order to make Du Shi feel at ease, Cai Wei had to comfort her like this, in fact, in her heart, she already planned to go to the meeting tomorrow. She secretly rejoiced, fortunately, the day set by the bandits was tomorrow, and by tomorrow, her eldest aunt should also leave, and she could come and go as she pleased. Otherwise, if it were today, it would be difficult!
Hearing Cai Wei agree not to go, Du Shi put her mind at ease, although she was also worried about the girl of the Shen family, but she was just an ordinary woman, and she was most concerned about her daughter, originally, when she received the letter, she was still afraid that Cai Wei would agree to go to the meeting alone, and she didn't want to enter the palace to send this letter, but then she thought that if she missed Chrysanthemum's life, her daughter would complain about her, and the girl of the Shen family was the granddaughter-in-law of the Liguo Mansion, in case she lost her life because of her own selfishness, the Liguo Mansion would also be dissatisfied with her, Fei'er is the daughter-in-law of the Liguo Mansion, It will also be affected to some extent in the Liguo Mansion; Besides, her daughter's ability is extraordinary, and her son-in-law loves her like her life, and he will definitely try to protect her......
After Du Shi left, Nangong Yi said to Cai Wei, "What are you going to do tomorrow?" ”
Cai Wei said: "Go, I want to see who wants to calculate me." ”
Nangong Yi said: "It's okay, I will accompany you, I will not let go of the people who dare to calculate!" ”
Cai Wei said: "My monthly letter can almost leave tonight, when the time comes, I will put you into the space, and we will act when the opportunity comes!" ”
The husband and wife stopped thinking and didn't mention it.
The next morning, before dawn, Cai Wei got up early, took a bath, and entered the space as she wished.
As the old days were in the space, Cai Wei asked Brother Parrot to go out to find the whereabouts of Chrysanthemum, and she went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the men and children.
Before the fire was lit, Brother Parrot had already sent a letter: "Master, Miss Chrysanthemum is now under the hundred-year-old tree on the top of Qixia Mountain, and there are six men in black clothes by her side, have you cleaned them up with me?" ”
"No, how's the chrysanthemum? Are there any injuries or anything? ”
"I wasn't hurt, but I seemed to have lost weight, and I was wilting......"
Chrysanthemum lost weight and wilted in Cai Wei's expectations, she grew up under the careful care of Mrs. Cui, although there was the oppression of Aunt Yan's mother and daughter in the past, but being kidnapped by this kind of vicious gangsters is the first time in her life, she is a daughter of a boudoir, it is strange if she is not afraid!
"You stay there, don't let them hurt Chrysanthemum, wait until we've finished eating, pay attention to what those gangsters say, be careful yourself, don't let them hurt you!"
Cai Wei broke a few ears of tender corn in the field, used a cutting board to make corn syrup, beat four or five wild eggs, baked a few hot corn tortillas, milked milk, and stumbled two small pickles to eat.
After breakfast, Nangong Yi and Cai Wei changed into civilian clothes, set off in a carriage, and went to Qixia Mountain on the outskirts of Beijing.
Qixia Mountain is the highest mountain in the capital, the scenery is beautiful, the trees are luxuriant, because there are Xiangshi said that the feng shui of Qixia Mountain is good, therefore, many families in the capital have moved the ancestral tomb to Qixia Mountain, after hundreds of years, now, the endless Qixia Mountain, has been full of tombs, stone tablets, looks gloomy and terrifying, there is no former scenery for a long time.
On the way, Cai Wei leaned on Nangong Yi's body, paying attention to the children in the space.
Ever since she explained the evolution of frogs to them, several of the children have become interested in frogs, and when they entered the space today, they brought the two frogs with them.
Cai Wei watched them put the frogs into the Lingxi, so frightened that she hurriedly called Changmei to fish out the frogs, otherwise, if they bred and laid eggs in the Lingxi, and there were more of these croaking little things in the Lingxi, she wouldn't point to sleep in the space......
"Shhhh
Suddenly, the two horses pulling the cart outside neighed, and seemed to be very restless, and they stopped where they were, and kept scraping their hooves, refusing to go forward, and snorting with a rough snort in their noses.
"What's going on?" Nangong Yi asked in a deep voice, he clenched Cai Wei's hand, and the person became vigilant.
The coachman said, "Your Majesty, I don't know why, the horse suddenly stopped leaving." ”
Cai Wei and Nangong Yi glanced at each other, and the two of them disappeared into the car.
At this time, there was a sudden abnormality, and it was done by the other party, in order to lure them out, so as to take the opportunity to murder them.
After entering the space, Cai Wei opened her eyes and carefully observed the situation around the carriage outside.
However, the surrounding situation was not what Cai Wei Nangong Yi had imagined, there was not a single assassin or suspicious person around, and there was not even a single pedestrian on the closed suburban road.
"Changmei, go out and take a look, is there anyone hiding around here?"
Cai Wei is not a clairing eye, she can only see the surface scene, if someone is ambushed and waiting to calculate them, she will not be able to see it.
Changmei led the order to go out, and searched around the carriage, it moved quickly and quickly, and quickly searched the place around the carriage, but it turned out to be the same as Cai Wei saw - there was no one at all!
"How so?"
Cai Wei couldn't believe it, "If you look carefully, my horse is a trained royal horse, and it won't be abnormal, there must be some reason in it." ”
Changmei searched again, and said, "Master, there is really no one, not even a personal shadow!" ”
Cai Wei felt that even if there was no one, someone must have done something on this road beforehand, otherwise, a well-trained royal horse would never be abnormal.
She released Gu Daxian again, and asked Gu Daxian to check whether there was any medicinal powder in the air here, and whether the imperial horse had taken any medicine to make it abnormal.
After Gu Daxian came out, he sniffed the air slowly, and said, "It's normal here, although it's not as good as the air in our space, but it's still fresh and pleasant." ”
Now, Cai Wei wondered? Why did the two good horses suddenly go out of sorts? Isn't this scientific? She told Nangong Yi about the situation Nangong Yi, and Nangong Yi was also puzzled, and the two discussed it and decided to go out to have a look.
Outside, the coachman had not yet tamed the two horses, and was clutching the reins, scolding anxiously.
After Cai Wei and Nangong Yi got out of the car, they looked around the car.
The situation is just like what Changmei said, the surrounding qiē is normal, except that the horse is still crazy, there is nothing unusual.
Seeing that it was about to come to the set time, and it would be too late if they didn't leave, Cai Wei and Nangong Yi stood by the carriage and watched for a while, seeing that the two horses showed no signs of improvement, and they didn't know when they would be able to carry people.
The speed of the white-haired tiger was very fast, like lightning, they only heard the whirring wind in their ears, and they couldn't even open their eyes, and when they blinked, they reached the middle of the mountain, and they were afraid that the kidnappers would see that they were riding a tiger, which would be unfavorable to the chrysanthemum, and when they reached the halfway up the mountain, she took the white-haired tiger into it and walked up the mountain.
Along the way, in addition to the inscriptions everywhere, I also saw many strange phenomena. For example, a wild lynx that came out of nowhere climbed to the treetops with its wild cat cubs in its mouth, and barked sharply; Flocks of birds hovered in mid-air, chirping loudly, but refusing to fall to the trees; The further up the mountain, the more strange phenomena there became, and when they reached the top of the mountain, they saw a group of rats scurrying around, and the big rats were still holding small mice......
The husband and wife are solemn, there is a vision in the sky, and there will be demons! What is it that makes animals so abnormal?
After walking for a while, Cai Wei had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly seemed to have been struck by lightning, and she figured it all out at once, and she shouted loudly: "Nangong Yi, has there been an earthquake in Kyoto before?" ”
Nangong Yi was taken aback and said, "You mean..." Going to an earthquake? ”
"That's right, I learned some common sense about earthquakes in my previous life, and now these abnormal signs are all expressions before the earthquake, you go back quickly, and quickly inform the people to take shelter, maybe the earthquake is coming soon!"
However, it was too late, and as soon as her words fell, the ground under her feet trembled, and the interior of the mountain made a distant rumbling sound, and soon, the whole ground shook violently.
"Vier!"
Nangong Yi screamed, protected Cai Wei in his arms, and supported her with his tall flesh and blood.
As the earth trembled, many stones were already rolling down from the top of the mountain.
Cai Wei didn't have time to think about it, and took Nangong Yi into the space at once.
"Have you done anything?" Before she could stand still, Cai Wei asked the man distressedly, lest he get hurt.
"I'm fine, what about you?" As he spoke, the man looked Cai Wei up and down, looking very nervous.
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry!"
At this moment, Cai Wei was really anxious, she thought that the earthquake would pass quickly, but she didn't expect it to last so long, she looked outside, and watched countless big trees in the forest collapse in an instant, and the time was filled with smoke and dust, enveloping all the qiē!
In the midst of the smoke and dust, the boulders on the mountain rained down and crashed on the ground with a rumbling sound, and the whole earth trembled, and she couldn't even make out the direction, only felt that the place in front of her seemed to be split. The animals in the forest fled one after another, and before they could escape, they fell into the cracks in the ground, which was a terrible experience.
Nangong Yi couldn't see the outside, and only hugged her tightly - her handsome face was extremely dignified.
He is not only her husband, but also the king of the Great Jin Kingdom, and now that such a strict incident has happened, I don't know how many people will be killed and injured because of this, and I don't know how many people will be separated from their wives and their families will be ruined!
I don't know how long it took for the shock of the whole earth to gradually pass, although it was only a short quarter of an hour, but in Cai Wei's eyes, it was longer than a lifetime. Although she was in space, this shaking of the sky still made her ears roar and her head dizzy, and the thrilling scene kept replaying in her mind.
Barely composing herself, she found that there was a mess everywhere around her, where they had just been, there was a huge mountain rock, this stone should have rolled down from the mountain, if they didn't go into the space, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"Has the shaking stopped?" Nangong Yi asked in a deep voice, with a bit of solemnity on his handsome face.
"Well, it's stopped, I don't know what's going on in the capital!"
Cai Wei is very worried, I don't know what happened to my father and sisters, but there are people in the capital, I don't know how many people died in this earthquake!
At this time, Cai Wei's ears suddenly heard the voice of Brother Parrot: "Master, I brought Miss Shen back, those bandits fell into the cracks in the ground, Miss Shen also fell in, I caught her so easily, it's so heavy......"
When Cai Wei looked at it, she saw Brother Parrot's thin little paws grasping Shen Juhua's belt, fluttering and flying down from the top of the mountain, looking very difficult.
Chrysanthemum has passed out, I don't know if she is injured.
Cai Wei took them into the space, handed over the chrysanthemum to Gui Daxian, released the white-haired tiger, and rode on the tiger's back with Nangong Yi, speeding towards the capital.
Approaching the capital, Cai Wei put the white-haired tiger into the space again, and released the horse raised in the space, although the situation is urgent, but now the natural disaster is suddenly falling, and the people's hearts are fluctuating, it is really not suitable for the people to see the vision.
She rode with Nangong Yi and quickly entered the city, as soon as she entered the city, she was full of ruins and ruins, and what entered her ears was the cry that shook the sky, and it was unspeakably miserable.
Along the way, Cai Wei and Nangong Yi witnessed and heard a lot of news, for example, hundreds of people have gathered at the gate of the largest big country temple outside, all of whom are refugees. For example, many palaces in the palace have collapsed, and even many palaces in the palace have collapsed, for example, some families have been stoned to death, and some have broken their legs and smashed their heads......
Cai Wei was thrilled, she asked Nangong Yi to go back to the palace to preside over the overall situation, and she hurried back to her parents' house.
"Dad, my mother and them!"
As soon as Cai Wei entered the courtyard gate, she saw her father's strict command of people pouring things, and Mu Zhongqing was very relieved to see Cai Wei come back unharmed.
"Wei'er, are you alright, what about the emperor? The emperor is fine, and my three grandsons are all right? ”
"They're all fine, you don't have to remember, Dad, what about my mother? What about Wen'er, Wu'er and Die'er? Are they all okay? ”
In fact, when Cai Wei saw that her father was so calm, she had already made sure that the family was fine, otherwise her father would not have this expression, but she still wanted to hear her father say it himself.
Mu Zhongqing listened, folded his hands, and said reverently: "Bodhisattva bless, our whole family is fine, Fei'er has also sent a letter from her side, and she is safe, and the child period is fine!" ”
It turned out that at the moment of the earthquake, Wen'er and Wu'er were on their way to the academy, and Mu Zhongqing was also on the way to the Yamen......
Therefore, when the earthquake happened, their family was outside, so they were all safe and sound, and Fei'er was on her way to say goodbye to the old lady, and she also escaped!
Although the family is fine, almost all the houses in the entire Mu Mansion have collapsed, and those that have not collapsed are in danger, there are many cracks in the walls, and the windows have been squeezed and twisted and deformed, and there is no way to live in them.
Fortunately, it is the weather in August, and it doesn't matter if you live outside, but those who die must be buried as soon as possible, so as not to give birth to plague and other diseases in the hot weather.
Generally, there will be small-scale aftershocks after a major earthquake, Cai Wei instructed her father to let him order to go down, so that the maids and women in the house should not go to the collapsed house to find something, and everyone was concentrated under the verandah.
After the instructions, Cai Wei left in a hurry, the capital is in chaos now, she has to go back to help the man preside over the overall situation!
The situation in the palace is much stricter than Cai Wei imagined, when she left in the morning, the palace was still full of grandeur and grandeur, but when she saw her again, there was only the ruins and ruins of the palace left.
This palace is still left by the previous dynasty, many palace rooms are open on the surface, in fact, the inside has long been aging, and now it has been shaken, and it will naturally fall down, collapse, and there is not much left!
Outside the Taihe Palace, a group of ministers who came to ask for peace were talking in a low voice, each pulling their faces, gloomy and gloomy.
This disaster will not be able to pass in a short time, because there are many problems involved, such as post-disaster reconstruction, resettlement of refugees, and post-disaster plague and other hidden problems......
What worries them is not only the post-disaster reconstruction, but also the loss of a lot of wealth in this disaster! For example, Fu Guogong, it is said that he likes to collect ancient porcelain the most, and most of his property is used by him for collection.
It's a pity that when the earthquake just happened, several of his storerooms where his collections were stored collapsed, and his priceless treasures were turned into a pile of porcelain pieces in the shock, which was worthless......
After Nangong Yi came out, everyone immediately stepped forward to ask for peace and discuss the post-disaster issues with him. Cai Wei originally planned to discuss with him the post-disaster treatment, but since the officials had arrived, she couldn't discuss it with the man, so she entered the space and began to try the ratio method of making zuò normal saline and the simple method of making distilled water.
At this time, the capital is full of wounded, there are countless broken arms and legs, and the weather is very hot, if the wound is not reduced in time, it will become inflamed and infected, and once it is inflamed and infected, the consequences will be very severe.
Therefore, it is much better to make normal saline as soon as possible, which can be used externally or internally, replenishing body fluids, cleaning wounds and changing dressings. It needs to be mixed with distilled water, and the distilled water washes the wound, which can make the residual tumor cells in the wound necrotic, lose their activity, and avoid growth.
Chrysanthemum had been sent back to the Shen Mansion by her, and the old turtle had already done a thorough examination of her, and found that she had not been hurt except by being a little frightened, so she only gave her some soothing pills, and asked Cai Wei to send her back.
When Zhaoqiu sent the chrysanthemum back to the Shen Mansion, fortunately the Shen family and his wife were safe, they saw the lost and recovered daughter, as if they had obtained a treasure, they hugged their daughter and cried, and expressed their gratitude to the queen mother to Zhaoqiu.
Originally, when the earthquake happened today, the two of them were still worried, if the queen didn't go, wouldn't their daughter be dead? Or, if the queen mother goes, and it happens that the earth dragon turns over, if the queen mother dies because she saved their daughter, won't their sins be great?
Fortunately, the queen mother is fine, and their daughter is back, thank God, sure enough, the queen mother is blessed with a great life, and she can protect their daughter in such an environment, it is really the life of the real phoenix......
A ground dragon turned over, taking the lives of tens of thousands of people in Kyoto, everywhere are broken walls, buried countless corpses below, more because the earth dragon turned over and injured people, dragging the stump and struggling, many children's fathers and mothers were killed in this huge disaster, for a time, the entire sky over Kyoto was shrouded in a sad atmosphere, everywhere homeless, nowhere to go to the displaced people.
