201: Seriously injured
Night is falling.
In the barren desert, the evening breeze is still mixed with the residual heat of the day, which makes people feel bored.
Oil lamps had already been lit inside the tent, and a coughing sound could be heard from inside.
"Lord Xiao, your injuries are too serious, will you rest tomorrow and then hurry?" Du Ming wiped the sweat from his forehead and said a little anxiously, "The wound has deteriorated, if it continues like this, these will all turn into carrion, and they must be removed at that time." ”
Du Ming didn't understand what Xiao Jiu was obsessed with.
If I had recovered well a few days ago, the wound would not have deteriorated to what it is now.
Los Angeles is surrounded by endless deserts, and the sun is so hot that it can almost tan off a layer of skin. The temperature at night is like a cold winter wax moon, and people who are still cold in thick cotton clothes are shivering.
He came to Los Angeles this time, Xia Ruan didn't plan to let him come at first, but just asked him to prepare some medicine for Xiao Jiu. Du Ming thought about it for a long time, but he was still ready to go in person. When he was young, he had heard his father talk about the Western Regions, and some herbs were like treasures in Great Qin, but they were the most common existence in the Western Regions. If he hadn't had a place in his heart at the time, he would definitely go to the Western Regions in person.
He is getting old, and now it is a wish to have the opportunity to go out for a trip.
His wife and daughter have always been supportive of him in this matter.
Under this endless stretch of yellow sand, there are too many secrets and too many unknowns.
Although Du Ming had been prepared for a long time, he knew that this trip would be more auspicious. It's just that the current situation is something he didn't expect.
Xiao Jiu chuckled lightly and said in a low voice: "If you don't enter the city within three days, the next thing will be difficult to handle." We have already alarmed the people of Cinnabar this time, and we must enter the city as soon as possible to meet General Song. However, my injuries are difficult for Dr. Du to keep them secret, so let's use the medicines I used yesterday. ”
After Du Ming heard this, his brows furrowed, obviously he was hesitating.
Although those drugs can stop the bleeding and help the recovery of the injury, after each dose. It's as uncomfortable as a burning fire. Such a medicine. Du Ming was reluctant to use it on Xiao Jiu's body, because Xiao Jiu's wound was close to his chest, and this kind of pain, Xiao Jiu's willpower would be a little worse. I'll faint in pain.
"Lord Xiao. This medicine can no longer be used. Du Ming thought about it and said slowly. It hurts so much. ”
Du Ming had also used such a medicine on himself, and he fainted directly in pain at that time. And his wound was smaller than Xiao Jiu's, and it was on his arm......
Du Ming thought. He will never forget that pain in his life, it is too unforgettable.
If it weren't for Xiao Jiu's intent on suppressing Kwai Luo's poison at that time, he would not have prepared such a medicine.
Although this medicine is very effective, it is only applied to the wound, and the pain is too unbearable.
Xiao Jiu smiled faintly, although his tone was light, but it was firm: "Since it is a medicine that can cure diseases, it is naturally a good medicine." Moreover, this medicine is not very painful, and I can still endure it...... After a few days in Los Angeles, I won't have time to heal my wounds, and now that my wounds can heal sooner, it will give us more chances of winning. ”
Du Ming looked at Xiao Jiu's gaze, and saw Xiao Jiu's good-looking eyes revealing calmness and perseverance.
He sighed secretly in his heart and began to dispense the medicine.
He couldn't say anything about Xiao Jiu, because what Xiao Jiu said was true.
As they passed through the town of Clear Water, they encountered a surprise attack from the enemy.
Xiao Jiu blocked this sword for him in order to protect him at that time, but he didn't want this person to have Kwai Luo on his body. After Xiao Jiu was poisoned, Du Ming felt guilty while thinking that this time it seemed that he was in a bit of trouble.
Kwai Luo is a spice that no one can get their hands on if they want it.
This is the spice that the royal family of Nissi must carry on their bodies.
And this spice is hard to buy because it is too toxic.
"Lord Xiao, Cheng Hong asks to see you."
A voice sounded outside the tent, and Xiao Jiu frowned slightly after hearing this: "Let him in." ”
Cheng Hong was a little embarrassed when he came in, his face was covered with yellow sand, and there was no clean place on his body. He knelt on the ground and said in a hoarse voice, "Lord, I have come from the capital. ”
This time, Xiao Jiu came to Los Angeles and did not bring Cheng Hong with him, he left Cheng Hong in the capital, just to think that when Xia Ruan had an accident, there was someone who could help Xia Ruan. This time, the Jiang family and the He family will definitely do something after he leaves......
He guessed that this time the Jiang family and the He family originally planned to let Li Changfeng come to Los Angeles, but they didn't expect him to come to Los Angeles in person instead of Li Changfeng. After all, for the Li family, the most terrifying person now is not Li Zhiya, the prince of Chengguo, but Li Changfeng, the son of the world.
The Jiang family and the Li family have now become enemies, and Empress Jiang is on her side......
Thinking of this, Xiao Jiu said lightly: "Is there something happening in the capital?" ”
Cheng Hong glanced at Du Ming, and Du Ming also consciously put the medicine in front of Xiao Jiu: "Lord Xiao, there are still a few flavors of medicine that the old man wants to go back to get it, and the old man forgot to bring it." ”
"Well, then it's going to trouble Dr. Du." Xiao Jiu said softly, "Doctor Du remembers to put that fox fur on, it is cold at night in this desert, and the cotton clothes are not cold-resistant. ”
After Du Ming heard this, he smiled: "Thank you, Lord Xiao." ”
After Du Ming retreated, Xiao Jiu turned his eyes to look at Cheng Hong: "Say, what's wrong with the third young lady?" ”
"No, Lord." Cheng Hong licked his dry lips and lowered his voice, "Third Miss is fine, it's just that Third Miss sent her subordinates to send you someone over, saying that it was helpful to you." ”
Xiao Jiu pondered Cheng Hong's words thoughtfully, and then laughed inexplicably.
There was a hint of doubt in his voice: "It's okay?" Is something still wrong with her? ”
Cheng Hong's face was full of astonishment, he didn't dare to hide Xiao Jiu in this matter, but as long as he thought of Xia Ruan's thousand instructions to tell him not to tell Xiao Jiu, he would be somewhat embarrassed.
After all, he was the person next to Xiao Jiu.
It's just that Xia Ruan's words are also very right, if this matter is told to Xiao Jiu, then it will distract Xiao Jiu.
Cheng Hong bit his lower lip and hesitated.
"You know why I kept you in the capital." The smile on Xiao Jiu's face became extremely faint. "If you want to go back to Zhuangzi, I won't stop you."
Cheng Hong thought of the days some time ago, and he hurriedly shook his head: "Half a month ago, the third lady entered the palace and was framed by Zeng Guifei and Shui Guiren, and his subordinates also found out that Ning Guiren, who is now pregnant, is a cinnabar person. Ning Guiren's surname is Xia Qinghe, and she is the second cousin of the third lady. At the beginning, Cinnabar took Xia Qingya and Xia Qinghe with him, trying to get both of them to do things for him. It's just that Xia Qingya was born with a birthmark on the right side of her face, and she failed in the process of tattooing, and she saw the ugly girl in the White Horse Temple as Xia Qingya. And Xia Qinghe entered the palace with the eighth princess Shui Yuanmu......"
Xiao Jiu looked at Cheng Hong with a smile: "Go on." ”
Cheng Hong gritted his teeth. He had to bow his head at this time.
Because he can't hide it from Xiao Jiu at any time.
It used to be like this. It still is.
"Ning Guiren is pregnant now, and the emperor seems to be very infatuated with Ning Guiren." Cheng Hong thought for a moment and continued, "When the subordinates left the capital. The third lady seems to be sick...... It's just that Miss Du Ruo said that it was just a cold. It's not a big deal. But the subordinates will see. But that's not like it. ”
Xia Ruan has been telling Cheng Hong not to tell Xiao Jiu about this matter, but now Cheng Hong has to say it.
Because Cheng Hong knew that Xia Ruan was too sick this time.
His manpower in the capital could not be directly ascertained. What happened in the palace, and why did Xia Ruan get sick as soon as he left the palace.
Xiao Jiu fixed his eyes and looked at Cheng Hong: "What else did the third miss say to you?" ”
Cheng Hong lowered his head and couldn't lower it: "The third miss didn't let her subordinates tell the lord about this matter, but the third miss asked her subordinates to bring a letter to the lord, saying that the lord would know everything after reading this letter." ”
Cheng Hong didn't know why, he was always afraid of Xiao Jiu.
He has walked on the rivers and lakes for many years over the years and has seen countless bloody scenes, but when he saw Xiao Jiu, he still felt bottomless.
However, Cheng Hong admired Xiao Jiu's calmness many times.
It's just that......
Xiao Jiu took the letter from Cheng Hong's hand, opened it and looked at it carefully, and the smile on his lips slowly gathered again.
It seems that Xia Ruan is the same as he guessed.
There are three major families in Los Angeles, the Jiang family, the Zhang family, and the Shi family......
Among these three families, the Jiang family relied on selling medicinal materials, the Zhang family sold spices, and the Shi family relied on making poisons in private.
The people around them thought that the person who attacked them was the Shi family, but in fact it was not.
Those people's skills are not at all like the people of Great Qin, but they are very similar to the Nixi people. Xiao Jiu had read in the book before that after the Nixi people were born, they would have something tattooed on their side, hoping that the gods would bless the child to grow up smoothly. He had sent someone to inspect the corpses, and each of them had different patterns carved into hidden places, and he was a little suspicious at the time.
The people who hooked up with cinnabar, he had some numbers in his heart.
Xiao Jiu raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Hong: "What about the people that the third lady asked you to bring?" ”
"Outside, the subordinates didn't bring it in." Cheng Hong replied a little awkwardly, "He was very noisy along the way, and his subordinates had no choice." ”
Cheng Hong has never seen a child who can speak so well, if it weren't for Cheng Hong personally in front of Xia Ruan, he has seen the child's well-behaved appearance. He didn't believe that a person would have quiet moments.
Xiao Jiu supported his chin with his right hand: "Bring him in, I have something to ask him." ”
"My subordinates know." Cheng Hong stood up from the ground and was about to turn around to leave, when he heard Xiao Jiu asking behind him.
Xiao Jiu said softly: "His name is Jiang Tuo? ”
"Yes, yes." Cheng Hong was a little puzzled, "Is there something wrong with this child?" ”
Xiao Jiuwan smiled: "No." ”
Jiang Tuo?
Xiao Jiu finally understood why Xia Ruan said those words to him in the letter.
It turns out that sometimes there is a doom in the dark.
He and she are like that.
This child appeared, and it was the same. (To be continued......)
