Chapter 276: The onset of the effect of the drug
The middle-aged man in front of He Mulan looks like the kind of person who can scare away children without smiling, and his expression is very small, and the officials who can come and go from him all show respectful expressions, obviously although this person is not a long-sleeved person who is good at dancing, he must also have something worthy of respect from others.
He Mulan is no longer a child, naturally there is no need to distinguish a person's character by appearance and temperament, and for Xianbei people, which tribe they were once born in is very important, and it is not a good thing to meet the past master family but have a reputation of "frivolity", so as soon as she heard that He Lairen reported to her family, she immediately did not dare to be contemptuous, and greeted the two with respect.
The head of the family and his sister-in-law came here to see He Mulan, naturally they would not come to pull the younger brother, their net worth and status in the Wei State and even the north are worthy of the word "Haoqiang", in this era, it is normal for the owner of the gate valve not to give face to the monarch, so why should he win over He Mulan, a little general who has just become famous?
Not everyone knows that Tuoba Tao wants to reuse Mulan.
On the surface, it seems that coming to He Mulan is just the curiosity of He Lairen, the young master of the He Lai family, so He Laixiong just watched the two of them talk, while He Lairen was more like a look to see if this kid who was in the limelight in the Hua family recently was worth befriending.
I don't know how many small families like the Hua family are attached to or sheltered in the Holai family, but this Hua family is one of the outliers.
They are not prosperous, and they have not produced any big names for several generations, but they are such a family, although they send gifts to the Horai family every year, they have never asked them for anything, nor have they borrowed their momentum, let alone relied on their origin to bully men and women and harm their neighbors.
If it weren't for the fact that there was such a group of people who came out to send special products such as cattle and sheep during the New Year's Festival, no one would remember that there was such a general in the He Lai family.
In fact, the subordinates who can be released by the Ho Lai family to become independent should all be loyal and have made great contributions.
As soon as Mulan became famous, He Lairen couldn't hide his curiosity and asked around at home, and learned that the general surnamed Hua who was originally released had done something to smash a mad bear to death, and he was born with great strength, and the head of the family who protected the He Lai family during the Sixteen Kingdoms period spent several times through the trap of nine deaths, so the whole family was released into the military household in addition to slavery.
This Mulan is so powerful, I think it has inherited the terrifying physique of the ancestor of the Hua family.
He Mulan is not good at such a conversation by nature, and the young master who wants to come to the Ho Lai family can also see it, so he quickly turns the conversation to other places, and after a few enthusiastic but well-measured discussions, the old and the young of the Ho Lai family seem to be very satisfied with Ho Mulan, and invite her to visit Zhuangzi outside Pingcheng in a few days.
Where could He Mulan not see that the Horai family wanted to promote the younger generations? What's more, He Mulan was originally born in the He Lai family, and it was impossible for the main family to refuse the invitation, so he immediately decided to be a guest in the Luomei Village of the He Lai family outside the city five days later.
In this way, He Mulan received a post from Lu Bi, and he was invited by the prince of Beiliang, plus He Lai's family, who had just arrived in Pingcheng, had already come to invite many parties.
When the father and son of the Ho Lai family left the banquet, He Mulan was also a little hungry in his stomach, and he was just about to eat casually, when he saw Kumoti coming over with a wine glass.
It was the old master of the family who had just left, and the main general who had sheltered her before and had been taking care of her in many ways, He Mulan sighed in his heart, touched his poor stomach, put down his chopsticks, and respectfully gave Kumoti and began to salute again.
They don't have so much red tape in private, but now they are in the palace, and everyone else watches their every move, Kumoti can be informal, if she is so casual, the reputation of "pampering and arrogant" and "wanton frivolity" will spread.
Thinking about it this way, it's not good to be an official in Pingcheng, and she is not as comfortable in the army as she is.
Kumoti knew why she was so careful, and when she saw that she was wearing a tribute from head to toe, and it was the style of weaving in the palace, she couldn't help but sigh a little bit on her face.
"This expedition is soft, I am about to be promoted to the commander of the Montenegrin battalion, I thought that although you left my side and became famous, but sooner or later you will still return to the Montenegrin tent, and you are still my people, now I look at it, ......"
He Mulan didn't know what Kumoti meant by this, so he couldn't help but reply cautiously: "The last general congratulates the general on his upcoming promotion. I was the commander of the 100,000 army at the age of twenty-four, and now there is only one general, which is really admirable. As for me, I'm just a pawn who has just made some merits, and I don't know where I'll serve when the time comes......"
He was telling the truth. She only knew that Tuoba Tao wanted to use her, but she didn't know how to use her, and she didn't know the bottom of her heart. But this Kumoti has always been in a high position until she was disarmed and returned to the field, although she is not involved in the court, but almost all the young generals in the army have received his favor, and their prestige in the army is extremely high.
"Oh, I thought that His Majesty would have to use you again this time, after all, you are ......"
Kumoti's fingers twitching the glass.
His Majesty's henchmen were sent to Montenegro, of course, for the sake of getting promoted. You have an innocent identity again, and you are beyond many factions, how can Your Majesty not use you?
Kumoti didn't think so, but he still deliberately said with a smile: "Since you say so, then I will go to ask Your Majesty to come and continue to work in Montenegro, are you willing?"
He Mulan really didn't understand why Kumoti suddenly showed favor like this, so he had to say with a dry smile: "The general values Mulan so much, it really flatters Mulan, hehe......"
"Well, I'm not kidding you anymore." Kumoti put away his smile. [,! "Although I am about to be promoted to the commander of Montenegro, but I am defeated, there is no harassment in the north, and the 100,000 army of Montenegro is afraid that half of it will be transferred away in a blink of an eye, and my coach is not as interesting as my Uncle Wang. It's normal that you don't want to follow me."
"That's not what the end means......
Kumoti obviously didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, but He Mulan's heart was already irritated by Kumoti's self-righteous speculation, and just as he wanted to defend himself, it was not that he disliked Montenegro and did not want to go back without fighting, when he heard Kumoti ask something casually.
"Your friend Di Yefei, who has made great contributions, seems to be taking cold food powder?"
"Cold food scattering, what cold food scattering?"
He Mulan repeated a sentence inexplicably, and his expression suddenly changed!
"Cold food? You mean Di Yefei is eating five stone powder?"
I saw that he was dressed loosely, and his face was like a peach, which was very different from what I had seen before, so I asked curiously. This thing is loved by the nobles, and the Han people think that it is elegant, and even the palace has introduced it, Di Yefei is now under Cui Hao's door, and it is not ...... to come into contact with Wushisan."
Seeing that He Mulan's face was getting more and more ugly, he couldn't help but be stunned: "What, you don't seem to like cold food very much?"
"Isn't that the medicine of the tiger and wolf!"
The notoriety of Wushisan, He Mulan still read it from an article written by Mr. Lu Xun about Wushisan and the bones of the Wei and Jin dynasties, and then looked for classics out of curiosity, and vaguely only remembered that it was a □□ similar to drugs in later generations, which contained heavy metals, and would lead to various organ failure after a long time.
Such a medicine is not the medicine of the tiger and the wolf, what else is the medicine of the tiger and the wolf?
What's even more terrifying is that the medicine refining technology of this era, the medicine of the tiger and the wolf is very difficult to obtain, but Wushisan, as long as you have money, you will definitely be able to get it!
"Tiger and wolf medicine? What you said is too exaggerated, it's just a kind of medicine that refreshes and excites yang, but young people are already too yang, and taking this is like adding fuel to the fire, and it will dry up all of a sudden. I thought you knew that you were kind enough to remind that kid a few words from your mouth, and it would be strange if you didn't even know, didn't he talk to you about everything?"
Kumoti point to stop.
If it weren't for Kumoti, who had always taken good care of Hermulan, he would have been a little provocative. He Mulan is not a dark person by nature, but when he heard his words, he already stood up with a deep frown, arched his hand to Kumoti and asked, "Dare to ask the general, after eating five stones, you can't get heated, and you can't drink cold wine?"
Kumoti nodded.
"I've seen people who eat it with only hot wine, and it's good wine."
"Say goodbye in advance, don't accompany!"
Where can He Mulan continue to stay in the banquet hall, he left the table with a step, asked a palace person for the location of the "dressing room", and hurriedly went to find it.
Wushi San, which was very popular in the Wei and Jin dynasties, the medicinal properties are dry and hot, and after taking it, it makes people warm all over the body, and produces a short-term effect that confuses people's hearts, which is actually a kind of chronic poisoning. Legend has it that He Yan was lustful, and after taking the five stones, he suddenly felt that the gods were cheerful and his body was enhanced. Under his leadership, Wushi San was widely spread.
However, many long-term users died of poisoning, and Sun Simiao of the Tang Dynasty called on the world to "burn it, not stay for a long time".
This medicine was still taken by countless Confucians and nobles until the Tang Dynasty, which shows its confusion. And this medicine is fatal, there will be no major problems at the beginning, but it will make the human body stronger and energetic, just like the stimulants in later generations, but there is really a big problem, and it can't be quit.
This is not the same as Red Bull, if it is not used well, it will kill people.
Who used such a thing to seduce Di Yefei?
The more He thought about it, the more terrible he felt. If Di Yefei was really seduced, then this one who seduced him must be someone he trusted, and his intentions were vicious.
It is difficult for Di Yefei to let down his guard against people, there are so few people who can make him trust, if he knows that he has been deceived, he doesn't know how much damage he will suffer.
Thinking of the twists and turns and difficulties he had had had along the way, and finally saw a glimmer of hope, but someone wanted to break his wings by force, He Mulan couldn't help but be furious, and wanted to break these people into pieces!
"Ahh
"Uh, sorry, sorry, I didn't know anyone in there......"
He Mulan smiled dryly and took a few steps back, then turned to the next toilet.
She didn't know which room Di Yefei was in, so she could only use the most primitive method to find it. Slaves and maids and entourages who enter the palace to participate in the banquet can only wait outside the palace, so in addition to the palace people and toilet people, it is impossible to tell which family is the adult in the changing place.
When He Mulan first came to this remote place, he thought that Di Yefei's eye-catching appearance must be known by asking, but after asking, he realized that there were too many heroes who came to the banquet today, and the palace people were too busy, and no one knew who was serving Di Yefei, and where he was serving.
After disturbing the smooth "uh-huh" of several strange ministers, Hermulan was already on the verge of despair.
Fortunately, the road of heaven is endless, and just as He Mulan was about to continue to "brave the journey", her afterglow swept to the palace man who had just led Di Yefei was leaving from the right direction......
"Wait! Eh, you wait...... You ......"
He Mullan chased a few steps and found that the man was gone.
"Count the cats? Running so fast?"
He Mulan was dumbfounded, and walked forward in the direction where the palace people left, only to see a few small wooden red houses standing there, looking at the shape and orientation, it was indeed a row of toilets
[,! ]
He Mulan had never been to the toilet in other places, and when he was in the army, he often solved it in the open air, and when he arrived at the post house and the courtesy hotel, it was just a small house with a separate bucket that would be regularly taken to be cleaned.
But just now she broke into a few toilets and saw the environment inside.
The convenience of the palace for the minister is divided into two rooms, the inner room has a gong barrel, the outer room can change clothes, but also light incense, and put fresh melons and fruits, all in order to neutralize the smell.
In ancient times, there was no exhaust fan, and after squatting in the toilet for a long time, it was inevitable that the smell would be stained, so after that, all those who were particular about it had to "change clothes and incense", which is also the origin of the word "changing clothes" instead of going to the toilet.
He Mulan looked at the row of small rooms in front of him, and his scalp suddenly went numb, and then he saw that there were palace people waiting in front of other toilets, so as to guide the ministers back to their seats, only there was no one at the door of this row of small rooms, and his heart was even more suspicious.
She is used to watching all kinds of TV series about palace fights, and she knows that sometimes when she wants to do something bad, there must be a lot of abnormalities next to her. But what she is most worried about now is that Di Yefei will die of cold wine without paying attention, and she can only grit her teeth and push open the doors of these toilets to find Di Yefei.
The first two rooms were empty, and when she reached the third door, she had just made some noise, and someone inside immediately shouted: "Didn't you say that you don't need to wait?" Please go far and wait! "
It was Di Yefei's voice undoubtedly.
Di Yefei shouted for others to leave, and the defensive heart that He Mulan had raised before suddenly relaxed.
"It turned out that he himself told others to leave......"
Also, according to his temper......
"It's me."
He Mulan knew that it was useless to persuade an arrogant man like Di Yefei, and it was the most effective to go straight with a single knife, so he directly used force to destroy the door latch and walked in with a grin.
"I see you haven't been back for so long...... Huh?"
Di Yefei in the room was lying on the ground, with his clothes wide open and his hair scattered, stretching his neck weakly. He has been in the army for a long time, even if his skin is fair, he has been almost destroyed by the wind and sand and scorching sun of Montenegro, but his chest and thighs still remain white and tender without erosion......
What, you ask how did Muller know?
Of course, it's because Di Yefei is lying naked on the ground now!
"What the hell is going on with you?"
He Mullan rushed up and closed the door.
The wooden latch had been destroyed by her, and there was no difference between closing it and not closing it, but considering Di Yefei's face, He Mulan still closed the door.
Di Yefei heard that it was Mulan's voice, and he was almost self-defeating in shame. At this time, even if there is no mirror in front of him, he knows how indecent he looks!
He Mulan closed the door and turned around, and was also shocked by Di Yefei in front of him. The so-called male sex is confusing, no matter how cold she is, everyone has a cute and beautiful heart, seeing Di Yefei like this, her long-lost female hormones still popped up all of a sudden.
"You really used five stone powder! How long has it been using?"
He Mulan suppressed the hot flashes that were surging in the chaos, and asked Di Yefei on the ground in a stern tone.
Di Yefei's whole body was dyed with red tide because the heat could not be dispersed, the gorgeous was almost thrilling, and a pair of eyes seemed to be as deep as being able to charm people's hearts.
From the moment he took the cold wine, his skin was terribly sensitive, and he only felt that the clothes on his body were rubbing against his skin like coarse linen and hard skin, and there was a slight pain like itching. Di Yefei is not afraid of pain, otherwise he would have been unable to endure the coming and going on the battlefield, but this itch is more terrible than pain, and he has been drilling into his heart, just wanting to seek relief.
He found this uninhabited place, took off his clothes, and lay naked on the ground, just because the outside of the toilet was paved with stone bricks, which was extremely cool, and the light of unknown incense could suppress his enthusiasm a little.
But the pain that was originally suppressed by a person was suddenly broken by Mulan's sudden visit!
It's even more embarrassing than being caught blaspheming.
"Five stones? I use cold food loose ......"
Di Yefei lay on the ground, turned his face sideways, and pressed his face against the masonry.
"It's all the same! That's the medicine of the tiger and wolf, who harmed you like this! He Mulan squatted down, scooped Di Yefei into his arms, and began to check his physical characteristics.
It's just that in the eyes of outsiders, this inspection looks like taking advantage of the opportunity.
He Mulan first put his hands on Di Yefei's forehead and behind his ears, carefully estimated his body temperature, and when his skin touched, the two of them shouted in unison.
He Mulan called because Di Yefei's body temperature was terrible. Mulan's physique is different from that of ordinary daughters, it is warm all year round, and the temperature of her palms is also hot, but even so, when she pokes Di Yefei's forehead, her hands are still hot, which is surprising.
Di Yefei screamed, but it was because He Mulan's "slightly cool" palm was placed on his forehead, which made him feel hot and hot as if he had found an outlet for catharsis, and sighed all of a sudden.
His sensitive skin could feel something rough but warm slowly and carefully covering his forehead, Di Yefei raised his eyes slightly, and saw He Mulan's worried eyes and the palm that was put up.
He could feel every callus in Hermulan's hands, every scar from an old wound, and even a slight sweat in her palm, as if she was exploring something, moving from his forehead to then to his neck.
He had seen He Mulan break the wooden pillar violently, and naturally knew how strong the palm of his hand was, but at this time, this hand was only. [,! Gently brushed all over his body, unconsciously, he could no longer hear the manic sound of blood rushing in his ears, and there was no fiery stinging in his eyes, as if the heat of his whole body was sucked away by the person in front of him with the palm of his hand.
The gentle palm of his hand probed the artery between his neck, but a tyrannical and destructive flame rose namelessly in his heart, and before his eyes appeared the scene of Hermulan having used these palms to kill and kill the enemy countless times.
When He Mulan's examination was over, she withdrew her palm, bent down to straighten Di Yefei's clothes and carry him out for medical treatment......
But the departure of the palm of his hand seemed to wake up some kind of terrible demon, Di Yefei's body attached to He Mulan actually floated to a hotter temperature, and his whole body seemed to be ignited by some kind of evil fire, making his heart scream:
"Break my neck! Break my neck with the palm of your hand! "
Thinking of the scene where those gentle palms easily broke his neck, he trembled with inexplicable excitement!
