The candlelight shook slightly, Wen Ziqi looked at Nangong Feifei lying on the collapse with a solemn face, only to see that her breathing was fast and slow, sometimes as fast as a cow panting, but sometimes as light as a gossamer. The jade-like face is also demarcated by the center of the eyebrows, one side is like a hibiscus out of the water, and the other side is not sweaty.

Xiao Lu stood aside and asked anxiously and softly, "Sir, what kind of poison did my young lady have?" Why is this so?"

Wen Ziqi frowned and thought about it and said: "This poison is not a strange poison, it is just a mixture of two poisons, but it is relatively troublesome to solve." ”

Xiao Lu's face softened a little when he heard this, and he asked, "Sir, what do you need to do to completely remove it?"

Wen Ziqi took a long breath and said slowly: "I'll talk about it when I'm done." He didn't care about the etiquette, so he stretched out his hand and put it on the vein of Nangong Feifei's right hand.

Xiao Lu just wanted to say something, but saw Nangong Feifei's eyebrows furrowed, and she let out a moan from time to time. pressed back his desire to stop Wen Ziqi's actions.

After a few breaths, Wen Ziqi withdrew his hand to check the pulse and said, "Your young lady has sealed the heart with internal strength, so the poisonous gas has not yet invaded the viscera, only on the surface!" So it's not difficult to detoxify. As long as the poison is released through the needle, and then take a dose of qi and blood. ”

Xiao Lu said with a happy face: "Then Mr. Lao will do the needle for my young lady!" ”

Wen Ziqi said secretly in his heart: "Didn't this stupid girl find that I came with you with my hands empty, and asked me to hurry up and make the needle, I will go there to find the tools I need to make the needle!" ”

He said with an embarrassed face: "I was in a hurry just now, I didn't bring anything when I came out, as the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, although Wen knew that the needle could cure this poison, but he didn't carry this thing with him." ”

Xiao Lu was startled, and then remembered that when he and this gentleman rushed over just now, this person's hands were empty. Then he opened his mouth and asked, "Then what should I do, then I'll go to Yichun Hall again to help you get it, how about you?" ”

Wen Ziqi was slightly stunned when he heard this, and secretly said bitterly in his heart: "What can I do, although the silver needles required for this acupuncture and moxibustion have a set in the hall, but this thing has never been borrowed, and besides, it is the middle of the night at this time, so she ran back to find someone to borrow!" ”

I can't help but be secretly anxious here, although this young lady is now relying on her internal strength to keep the poison gas out. However, the time should not be delayed for too long, and if the poisonous gas is allowed to swim in the surface for a long time, it will also cause great damage to the skin.

Xiao Lu, who was standing on the side, saw that Wen Ziqi didn't answer what he asked just now, thinking that it was because he didn't pay him that he didn't say anything, and secretly cursed in his heart: "Everyone is sanctimonious and claims that they practice medicine to help the world and save people, but when it comes to a critical time, these guys who eat people and don't spit out bones don't take the money first and then do things!" ”

In his heart, he thought that the person in front of him was the same, but since this person said that as long as he did the needle once, he could expel the poisonous gas, although he hated the seven orifices of smoke, but he did not dare to show a trace of displeasure, and still said with a smile: "It is really helpless for Mr. to run a set in the middle of the night, this is fifty taels of silver tickets, please laugh!" As he spoke, he took out a silver ticket from his sleeve pocket and put it on the table where Wen Ziqi went.

Wen Ziqi looked at the silver ticket in front of him, and sighed secretly in his heart: "It seems that this little girl has misunderstood, I didn't respond to her just now not because of the remuneration, but I don't know who to let her go back to, now everyone is sleeping when you go back at this hour, you call it up and say that you want to borrow a silver needle, it's strange if you don't get kicked out, if only the foodie Pei Yuanting didn't sleep, he knows a lot of people, and he may be able to borrow it." ”

Thinking of Pei Yuanting's sudden flash of inspiration and thinking of a person, he hurriedly said to Xiao Lu: "You hurry up to Yichun Hall now, find an old man named Mo Lao, and say that Wen Ziqi has a pair of silver needles on his waist to drive away drugs!" ”

Xiao Lu snorted coldly in his heart, and thought to himself: "As expected, as soon as this silver ticket was taken out, it immediately responded to me!" ”

Although I was extremely disgusted with this person, I was worried about the comfort of the young lady, so I asked: "Then what does this thing look like, in case I say the wrong thing and don't take it right, wouldn't it be bad to delay the time." ”

Wen Ziqi nodded and said, "It's usually a cowhide package, and there are dozens of silver needles ranging from three inches to five inches inside. ”

Xiao Lu was surprised when she heard this, and then took out a small box from Nangong Feifei's couch, reached out to open the box, took out a cowhide package from it, and handed it to Wen Ziqi.

Then he asked, "Is this what the gentleman is talking about?" ”

Wen Ziqi was stunned, then reached out to take the package handed over, and pinched it with his hand to know that it was the acupuncture used for acupuncture! Then put it on the small table next to the couch, unfastened the top button, and spread the contents on the table, which was the silver needle that he was helpless for. Then he nodded and said: "It's exactly this thing, since there is one around, it's even better." ”

After saying that, he pinched out a silver needle long enough to be three inches long with three fingers, looked at it in the candlelight, and then turned his head and said, "Since your young lady has a silver needle, and it is this kind of high-grade pure silver!" ”

Xiao Lu smiled and said, "I don't understand the little one, but just now Mr. said that the shape of this thing, I remember that my young lady just has it!" ”

Wen Ziqi smiled and stopped talking, turned his head and reached out to lift the blanket covering Nangong Feifei's body, and then found the right place and gently tied it.

In the dead of night, the whole house of Liufu was dim and dark, and the door was closed. As far as the eye can see, only a small wing room in the backyard next to the mountain is still lit by candles, and the furnishings in the room could not be simpler, only a wooden bed and a large wardrobe more than one person high are placed in the room, and then there is a tattered table for four, and not even a chair can be seen.

In the originally quiet backyard, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps, and as the footsteps were listened carefully, it was found that there were two people who seemed to be talking, and it didn't take long to see the door of the small wing room being pushed open and stepping in, it was Liu Lu who went to Yichun Hall.

At this time, Liu Lu said with a flattering face: "Master Yao, what I told you on the way just now, you will definitely help me vent my anger when you go back tomorrow, that kid is too blind." ”

Then an impatient voice came from outside the door: "I know what you said, now don't worry about these trivial things, quickly push the cabinet open!" With the voice, I saw another person coming in the door, it was Yao Bingkun, the deputy hall master of Yichun Hall.

I saw Liu Lu nodding and saying, "Okay, Master Yao, wait a minute, the little one will help you push it away." ”

With that, he walked over to the side of the large wardrobe and pushed it aside.

Where the wardrobe was originally kept, there was a passage large enough to pass through two people side by side. If you listen carefully at the entrance of the cave, you can faintly hear a roar coming from inside the cave.

Yao Bingkun looked displeased and walked into the cave. After walking about a dozen steps, the originally crowded passage suddenly opened up, and it turned out to be an underground secret room, which was more than ten feet deep. Caves are distributed on both sides of the passage.

At this time, it was late at night, but there were still many people working in the cave, and when they saw Yao Bingkun appear, they all stopped and said respectfully: "Master Yao! ”

Yao Bingkun nodded, and then asked, "Where is Master Liu now?" ”

"Back to Master Yao's words, Master Liu is now in the third room of the second word" I only heard a voice reply.

Yao Bingkun nodded, then walked inward, walked about twenty steps away and came to a cave on the right side of the passage, and leaned in.

A strong smell of blood came to the nose, making people nauseated, Yao Bingkun covered his mouth and nose, looked at the kiln intently, and saw a wheelchair in the middle of the cave, on which sat an old man with a white beard and a face like a dead tree.

The old man saw Yao Bingkun come in, and said happily: "Bin Kun, you are here." ”

Yao Bingkun glanced inside the cave, looked at the half-dead person who was only tied to the wooden frame against the wall, and then said: "Father-in-law, don't worry, on the way here just now, Liu Lu told me that there is a subordinate who is inexplicably crazy and beats people when he sees them, but is there such a thing?" ”

The white-haired old man shook his head and said, "But there is such a thing, but I just let people pretend, so that it is just to hide people's eyes!" As he spoke, he gasped vigorously, as if it was a broken candle that would be blown out at any moment.

Yao Bingkun nodded and said, "I see, why do I have such a strange illness!" It's still my father-in-law who is clever in his work. ”

It turned out that this white-haired old man was Yao Bingkun's father-in-law, known as Liu Biao of Liu Bancheng. At this time, if someone finds that Liu Bancheng, who originally said something to the whole of Qingzhou, trembling three times, now looks like he is about to die, I don't know how to feel in my heart!

You must know that in Qingzhou, half of the industries can be related to the Liu family, not to mention the Liu family's son-in-law Yao Bingkun, who is the deputy hall master of the largest Yichun Hall in Qingzhou.

Speaking of Liu Nantian, the prefect of Qingzhou, as the saying goes, a year of Qing prefect is 100,000 snowflakes of silver, not to mention that Liu Nantian has served as the prefect of Qingzhou for many years. Since ancient times, the imperial court in order to reduce the strength of the prefect in the local area have liked to transfer from other places, the entire Great Zhou Dynasty since the establishment of the dynasty, stay in the first place to be born to do the prefect's estimated one hand to count over, this Liu Nantian is one of them.

From this, it can be imagined what the Liu family's power in Qingzhou will look like. But he is at the helm of such a behemoth

Now I can only survive in a wheelchair. How can people not sigh!

Yao Bingkun walked to the wall and looked at the person who had passed out, his brows furrowed, and then turned around and asked softly, "Father-in-law, hasn't this person been recruited yet?" ”

Liu Biao shook his head and said, "No, I've been saying that he doesn't know!" ”

"Don't know?" Yao Bingkun said suspiciously.

Liu Biao nodded and said weakly: "Yes, I didn't say any useful news from beginning to end!" ”

Yao Bingkun smiled grimly and said, "The dignified inspector doesn't even know when the tribute medicine will be transported back to Beijing?" Father-in-law, do you believe it? ”

Liu Biao raised his eyes and looked at the kidnapped person, and said coldly: "Since he doesn't want to give it to us, then we can only get it ourselves!" ”
