Chapter 5 Brotherhood
"No, if you go out, you will definitely die, but it is better to gamble with the snake and gamble on luck."
As he spoke, Fu Qinglian grabbed Hua Shenyue's wrist and cautiously approached in the direction of the big snake.
"Give me the sword in your hand."
The two of them got closer to the big snake, and Fu Qinglian suddenly spoke.
When Hua Shenyue heard this, she simply put the sword behind her back and said, "No, you can't use internal force, if you move your true qi, you will have to worry about your life if the poisonous gas attacks your heart." ”
Saying that, Hua Shenyue shook off Fu Qinglian's arm and was about to fight with the big snake, but Fu Qinglian grabbed her and snatched the sword in her hand.
"You are stupid, the snake's eyesight is not good, not to mention that it is so dark here, it must have smelled the smell of blood before coming, and like this kind of big snake is generally in pairs, it is absolutely impossible for it to be one here, so we have to find a way to lead them out of the hole, so we can take the opportunity to escape."
"But there are a lot of people in black outside, even if we lure the big snake out, it will be difficult for us to get out."
Hua Shenyue was a little stunned, and she couldn't understand the meaning of Fu Qinglian's words at all.
Fu Qinglian could only patiently explain: "Can't you feel the wind blowing from the inside out? In other words, this hole is not a dead hole, there must be an exit on the other side, so you just wait for me here, and it is better to hold your breath and not move. ”
After speaking, Fu Qinglian and Hua Shenyue distanced themselves, slashed their wrists with their swords, and then moved in the direction of the cave with a limp while dripping blood on the ground.
Hua Shenyue's heart was frightened, he had lost so much blood when he was injured, and now he used his own blood to lure the snake out of the hole. Isn't that stupid? I really regret that I was stupid, if I had reacted in advance, how good it would have been to use my own blood.
However, it was too late to say anything, and she knew that snakes mainly relied on smell and vibration to distinguish directions, so she could only hold her breath and wait for Fu Qinglian to come back.
Sure enough, as Fu Qinglian said, there are countless big snakes and small snakes in this cave, the first big snake moved in the direction of the cave with the smell of blood, and after a while, there was really a snake almost as big as the first big snake, and countless small snakes also squirmed towards that side.
After a while, Hua Shenyue really didn't worry about Fu Qinglian, so she wanted to go over and have a look, and then she heard footsteps coming, only to hear Fu Qinglian say: "Let's go, those snakes are already at the entrance of the cave, we have to leave here while those people are messed up." ”
Sure enough, as soon as Fu Qinglian's words fell, he heard a shout from there: "Ah...... Snakes, so many big snakes, help. ”
As Fu Qinglian expected, they walked for about half an hour, and then they felt that the light was much brighter, and after a while, a half-person-high exit appeared in front of them.
The two glanced at each other, bent down and walked out of the cave one after another.
This is the other end of the mountain behind the palace, but the mountain road is a little rough, but fortunately there are no black-clothed assassins here, and they walked for about half an hour before they saw men and horses wearing the guards of the palace in the distance.
"Wang ...... Lord, Lord. ”
A young guard in the distance shouted and ran towards them.
Fu Qinglian shouted a little tiredly: "Chen Shi, why are you here?" ”
"Lord Wang, your party has not returned for a long time, and your subordinates are really not at ease, so they brought someone to find it."
Chen Shi stopped and saw that Fu Qinglian was injured, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly asked, "Lord Wang, what's wrong with you, have you met the assassin again?" ”
Fu Qinglian didn't reply, but waved his hand at him, Chen Shi realized it, and hurriedly walked up to him, Fu Qinglian whispered a few words in Chen Shi's ear, Chen Shi instantly became angry, and said angrily: "Don't worry, your subordinates will go in person." ”
Hua Shenyue was only blind and deaf, and it was late at night when she returned to the palace.
When she returned to the palace, she didn't have time to rest, so Fu Qinglian ordered someone to arrange a place for her to live. After she finished changing her clothes, she began to tinker with the herbs.
She knew that the poison in Fu Qinglian's body could not be delayed, especially now that she didn't know what kind of poison he was, she could only use her new formula to restrain the poison in his body and prevent it from spreading to the internal organs.
By the time she finished dispensing the medicine and boiled it again, it was already three watches. She came to Fu Qinglian's door with the boiled medicine, there were guards guarding the door, and the lights in the room had been turned off.
So she waited with the medicine, and when the medicine was cold, she went to heat it, and when it was hot, she came back and waited, until the sky was bright, and the door of Fu Qinglian's room was opened, and a maid went in to bring him something for washing.
Seeing this, Hua Shenyue also walked in, at this time, Fu Qinglian was leaning on the bed in his bedclothes, his handsome face seemed to have lost weight overnight, and his face was as pale as paper.
Fu Qinglian was not surprised by Hua Shenyue's arrival, but said lightly: "I thought you would come in the middle of the night to deliver medicine to me, but I didn't expect to come so late." ”
"Ahh I thought last night that you should be fine after taking the Breath-Holding Pill, so I ...... Ah Qing, did you have a relapse last night, come, I'll check your pulse first. ”
Saying that, Hua Shenyue put down the bowl and went to grab Fu Qinglian's arm, but Fu Qinglian suddenly dodged her movements and said, "No need, I was fine last night, you can give me the medicine." ”
"But ......" Hua Shenyue originally wanted to insist on taking his pulse, but it can be seen that Fu Qinglian looked away, so he could only turn around and pick up the bowl and send it to him, Fu Qinglian lowered his eyes, took the medicine and put it to his mouth and drank it, and drank it all in a few sips.
Hua Shenyue's mouth was bitter, because those medicinal herbs were all bitter cold medicines, and sometimes he would feel sick to his stomach when he smelled them, and he really suspected that Fu Qinglian was a person with incomplete tastes, and he couldn't even feel the ups and downs.
After Fu Qinglian drank the medicine, Hua Shenyue wanted to take the empty bowl, but Fu Qinglian deliberately avoided her and handed the bowl to the maid on the side, which made Hua Shenyue very embarrassed, so she thought about leaving, and then someone suddenly ran in to report that the emperor was coming.
Hua Shenyue wanted to withdraw and leave when she heard this, but before she could do so, she heard a bright male voice shouting: "Brother Lian, what the hell is going on, listen to the guards, you are scared to death." ”
With the voice, the guards inside and outside the door knelt down and shouted long live, and Hua Shenyue could only kneel to greet him when he saw this.
The bright yellow figure flashed, and the person who walked in, this person looked to be in his twenties, tall and thin, and his appearance was quite delicate, he was today's son Fu Beixing, Fu Qinglian's half-brother.
"It's no big deal, why bother the royal brother to run this trip himself."
Fu Qinglian was about to get up as he spoke, but Fu Beixing took the first step to hold him down, and said with concern: "Brother Lian, you can't shirk this time, when you are better, you must move back to the palace to live, you are alone outside, I really can't sleep well." ”
"Brother Huang said this, and the younger brother thinks you have another purpose. Don't you have something difficult for you to solve? ”
