Huang Zhong split his head and said: "If you can save my family Xu'er, I will sell you this life." ”

Lu Bu was about to say a few polite words.

At this time, Huang Zhong turned his head and saw Zhang Ji sitting on the side.

The look on his face was first happy, and then a gloomy look appeared.

"I didn't expect Mr. Zhongjing to be here, Hansheng was rude."

Although Huang Zhong's face was gloomy, he still bowed respectfully to Zhang Ji.

In terms of attitude, he was much more respectful than he was to Lu Bu.

The change in Huang Zhong's face also attracted the attention of others present.

Zhang Ji hurriedly spoke: "General Huang and I are also old acquaintances. I have seen his child's illness before, but there is no proper way to do it, so I can only try to delay it for some time. Alas—"

Speaking of this, there was a sincere look of pain on his face, which showed that he was really worried about Huang Zhong's child's condition.

Huang Zhong's heart was moved, and the sadness on his face receded slightly, but he opened his mouth to comfort Zhang Ji and said, "Mr. Zhongjing, don't do this. This is Xu'er's fate, old man, old man......"

Huang Zhong fought on the battlefield for half his life, and only after entering middle age did he have such a son.

Middle-aged son, Huang Zhong naturally loves this son very much.

But he never thought that the child would be weak and sickly since he was born.

At first, he thought it was caused by a lack of nutrition, Huang Zhong tried his best to find all kinds of medicinal materials for the child and supplement the nutrition for the child, but the effect was unsatisfactory.

Many famous doctors were found for diagnosis, but the cause could not be found.

Zhang Ji was originally in Jingzhou, and naturally he was invited by Huang Zhong to check it out many times.

But Huang Xu's illness made Zhang Ji, who had always been a medicine to get rid of the disease, powerless.

However, Zhang Ji still often came to visit Huang Xu, and also used some drugs to suppress the deterioration of his condition.

So when Zhang Ji learned that Lu Bu asked him to treat Huang Zhong's child, he had a strange expression.

Therefore, when Huang Zhong saw Zhang Ji, a gloomy expression appeared on his face.

After listening to Zhang Ji's brief narration, everyone was also clear.

Lu Bu's face was slightly embarrassed at this time, originally he was wishful thinking.

But now it seems that the bamboo basket is empty.

Sure enough, the conjecture that was outside the county before coming came was fulfilled.

I can't help but feel a little depressed in my heart.

At this time, Zhang Ji spoke again.

His words made Lu Bu and Huang Zhong look at him excitedly.

"Ling Lang's illness, I really have some eyebrows, and I'm going to talk to you in the near future."

Zhang Ji also turned his head, looked at Huang Zhong, and said slowly.

When Huang Zhong heard this, his face immediately flushed, and even his breathing began to become a little short.

"Sir, is this true?"

Zhang Ji's brows furrowed slightly, as if he didn't know how to speak.

However, he frowned.

Huang Zhong next to him, his breath suddenly suffocated, and his eyes widened suddenly.

Lu Bu saw that Huang Zhong seemed to want to ask, so he took two steps first and came to Huang Zhong's face.

Stretched out his hand and patted Huang Zhong's shoulder gently, he was nearly half a head taller than Huang Zhong, this action seemed very kind and natural.

It's as if the two of them have been friends for many years.

Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment, and his open mouth closed unconsciously.

Turning his head, he saw Lu Bu's restrained eyes.

looked at Zhang Ji's slightly frowning brows again, obviously reacted, slowly calmed down his mentality, and waited for Zhang Ji's answer.

Huang Zhong also knows very well that Zhang Ji is not a reckless person.

Now that Fang has already said it, the child's illness has a little eyebrows.

Then naturally there is some certainty.

He didn't say it at this time, and there must have been some consideration for him.

Instead of interrupting his thoughts, it is better to wait quietly for his explanation.

Everyone waited for a long time, and Zhang Ji sighed softly.

Only then did he find that everyone's minds were attracted to him, and Zhang Ji glanced up at Lu Bu.

Lu Bu naturally understood what Zhang Ji was about to say, and he probably didn't want them to hear it.

However, Lu Bu had waited for this opportunity for so long, and now that it was in front of him, how could he give it up easily.

With a wave of their hands, Zhao Yun and Gan Ning immediately understood, turned around and walked out of the room, guarding the door.

There are guards between the two of them, and ordinary people don't want to break into this room.

Even if you hide in the next room, you may not be able to eavesdrop.

After the two walked out of the room, Lu Bu turned his head and said with a serious face.

"Mr. Zhongjing, don't worry, with Zilong and Xingba guarding outside, no outsiders will hear the words here."

Lu Bu didn't seem to think of himself as an outsider.

made Zhang Ji's face a little embarrassed, and Huang Zhong also saw Zhang Ji's embarrassment.

However, at this time, Huang Zhong was more concerned about his son's condition, and naturally he couldn't take care of it.

Hurriedly opened his mouth and asked: "Mr. Zhang, if you have any words, please speak up!" ”

"This ...... It's okay, but please forgive me for asking Wen Hou for a promise. ”

"Mr. Zhongjing, don't worry, if you don't agree to today's events, no fourth person will know."

Lu Bu naturally understood what Zhang Ji wanted to say, and agreed first.

After getting Lu Bu's assurance, Zhang Ji was relieved.

He hesitated for a long time, and just when Huang Zhong couldn't help but want to ask again, he finally spoke.

"Brother Hansheng, I'm afraid that what Xu'er is suffering from is not a disease."

Huang Zhong didn't react for a while, and wondered: "What? What do you mean? ”

"Xu'er may have been poisoned, and it is a very vicious poison."

Zhang Ji raised his eyes and looked directly at Huang Zhong, and then slowly spoke, saying these words word by word.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and Zhang Ji's words immediately shocked the two of them.

However, the shock to them is not over.

Zhang Ji continued: "And, if I am not wrong in my inference, this poison was blended by a master and came from the Western Regions. ”

Hearing this, Huang Zhong's face suddenly turned pale.

Lu Bu also suddenly realized, no wonder Zhang Ji wanted to avoid the three of them before.

If it is really as Zhang Ji said, Huang Xu's illness was caused by someone's poisoning scheme.

Then it is very likely that there are many secrets involved, and these secrets must be inconvenient for Lu Bu to know.

Even Zhang Ji, if he knows some inside information, I'm afraid it will be very inconvenient.

Huang Zhong was silent.

Fell down on top of the small collapse.

The straight spine was slowly bent at this moment.

The whole person seemed to age a lot in an instant, and a little cloudiness slowly appeared in a pair of eyes.

"Evil obstacles! Evil obstacles! Huang Zhong spoke slowly, muttering in a whisper.

But at this time, there were only the three of them in the room, so Huang Zhong's words clearly reached the ears of Lu Bu and Zhang Ji.

The two glanced at each other, and it was obvious that Huang Zhong most likely knew who was behind this matter.

Huang Zhong muttered a few words before falling silent.

Lu Bu and Zhang Ji also closed their mouths in amusement.

For a moment, the room fell silent.

After being silent for a long time, Huang Zhong raised his head again.

In those eyes, the cloudiness had disappeared, and the sparkle had regained its brilliance.

Huang Zhong looked at the two who were concerned, raised his head and laughed: "Hahahaha, I made the two of you see the joke." ”

The laughter stopped, Huang Zhong slowly spoke, and asked Zhang Ji, "Mr. Zhang, this speculation is somewhat certain. ”

Although the tone was calm, Lu Bu and Zhang Ji both heard a trace of trembling and hope from it.

It was as if he wanted to hear a negative answer from Zhang Ji's mouth.

Zhang Ji bit his lip and replied, "More than ninety." In the past few years, I have been paying attention to Xu'er's disease, and I heard about this poison by chance, and after all kinds of investigations, I dared to make such an inference. After all, this is not a trivial matter, and I can't say anything about it in any way! ”

Huang Zhong's lips were tightly closed, and there was a deep sadness in his eyes.

He stood up and respectfully saluted Zhang Ji.

"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Huang Hansheng thank you for your great kindness!"

Zhang Ji hurriedly got up, helped Huang Zhong and said, "General Huang, General Huang must not be like this." The torment is below, and it is just a duty to do so. Now although he knows that Ling Lang is poisonous in the Western Regions, he can't prescribe the right medicine, and Zhong Jing is ashamed. ”

Lu Bu opened his mouth at this time and asked, "Mr. Zhongjing, since you know the poison, why can't you detoxify it?" Is there any difficulty? Maybe I can help. ”

Huang Zhong glanced at Lu Bu gratefully, and then turned his head to look at Zhang Ji, although he didn't speak, his expression obviously had the same question as Lu Bu.

Zhang Ji shook his head and sighed: "It's not that I don't want to do my best. It was also a coincidence to learn of this strange poison. ”

After a pause, he continued to explain: "Although I also know the antidote method of this poison, this poison is unique to the Western Regions, and even there are several antidotes that can only be produced in the Western Regions, and they cannot be found directly in the Central Plains. ”

When Huang Zhong heard this, he trembled all over, and the feeling of finding hope and then shattering it again made this general who had collapsed in front of Taishan and his color unchanged couldn't help but tremble.

The Western Regions, that is a distant place.

During the prosperous period of the Han Dynasty, the Silk Road, which had a long history of trade with the Western Regions, originated in the Western Han Dynasty.

It's just that after the decline of the Han Dynasty, although the communication with the Western Regions has not been severed, there is no way to compare it with the past.

In addition, in recent years, the Central Plains has been in war for many years, and it has completely cut off contact with the Western Regions.

Nowadays, except for the states and counties bordering the Western Regions, there is no news of the Western Regions in other places.

Zhang Ji also found this kind of poison from the past classics.

Lu Bu suddenly said, "Then let's go to the Western Regions." ”

Zhang Ji and Huang Zhong raised their heads at the same time and looked at Lu Bu.

Zhang Ji's eyes were full of doubts.

Huang Zhong's eyes were incredulous, and there was a faint sense of excitement.

However, Zhang Ji's words poured down like a basin of cold water.

"Wen Hou, let's not mention the long and dangerous journey, those medicinal materials are not ordinary things that can be encountered. Although it is not rare in the world, it is easy to find. It is for this reason that I have never explained it to General Huang. ”

After a pause, Zhang Ji looked at Huang Zhong and explained.

"I know that with General Huang's character, after learning the news, he will definitely choose to go to find the antidote in person. But this method of finding is like looking for a needle in a haystack, how can it be so easy to find. ”

Huang Zhong slowly lowered his head, Zhang Ji's words were reasonable, and he also understood, but he was really unwilling to give up like this.

"General Huang." Zhang Ji spoke again.

Huang Zhong raised his head abruptly and looked at Zhang Ji with hopeful eyes.

Zhang Ji thought for a while and asked, "Perhaps, can we start from the person who poisoned it?" ”

After Zhang Ji finished speaking, he immediately closed his mouth and carefully looked at Huang Zhong's expression.

When Huang Zhong heard this, his mouth was tightly closed, and his face became a little ugly.

It seemed that there was something unspeakable, and he was silent for a long time, and then he exhaled a breath of turbidity.

After making a big salute to Lu Bu and Zhang Ji, he said:

"Excuse me, both of you. It's hard to say. ”

"Lord Wenhou, Huang has received a piece of your heart. It's just that Xu'er's situation is really ...... Alas! ”

Huang Zhong clenched his fists at Lu Bu and said sincerely.

Lu Bu's intention was very clear, and he was naturally clear, but he was worried about the child's body, so he finally declined Lu Bu's invitation.

Then turning his head and looking at Zhang Ji, Huang Zhong pleaded again:

"Mr. Zhang Ji, I beg you one more thing, please copy the antidote to me. I'm trying to find a way to find it, and if I can find it, that's the best. If there is really no way, you can only blame Xu'er's life for being like this. Alas......"

After saying this, Huang Zhong arched his hand again and made a big salute to the two.

Then he slowly turned around and walked out of the room.

The originally tall and majestic body looked a little rickety at this time.

Even from behind, it seems to have a hint of dejection.

This is diametrically opposed to Huang Zhongke in history.

Lu Bu thought about it and understood that Huang Zhong in history must be his original character.

After just a short exchange, it can be seen that Huang Zhong is a bold and atmospheric person.

It's just that the death of the child hit him too hard, which made him look like this.

This can also explain that he is such a capable person.

Why didn't he emerge until he was so old in the era of heroes in the Three Kingdoms.

According to common sense, with Huang Zhong's ability, even in the relatively peaceful Jingzhou area.

It's also enough to have enough fame.

But it wasn't until he was recruited by Liu Bei that he was truly famous all over the world.

The information that Lu Bu had previously obtained from history was also vague.

I just roughly knew that it should be the pain of losing a child that caused Huang Zhong to sink for a while.

At the time, he thought it was a little incredible, but now, in this day and age.

He is also a father now, and although he can't say that he can empathize with Huang Zhong's experience, he can understand it somewhat.

Looking at Huang Zhong's departing back, Zhang Ji and Lu Bu glanced at each other.

They all sighed slowly.
