Wind and rain, rickety carriages on muddy roads.

A fast horse galloped to the carriage at the front of the procession, grabbed the reins, and clenched his fists and reported:

"My lord, there seems to be an ambush on both sides of the col ahead, the wind and rain here are too strong, and the road is not easy to walk, should we take a detour?"

Zhang Fuling narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice:

"Madame, how long has it been since their carriage?"

"At this moment, they should have arrived in the capital, after all, there are only twenty miles in front of the capital, and they left half a day in advance, but a carriage is inconspicuous."

Zhang Fuling nodded, pondered for a moment and ordered:

"The detour is unrealistic, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, it is even more difficult to walk, how can the thieves come in the Gyeonggi Heavy Land, protect the few carriages that are going to be criminalized behind, we rush over, if anyone dares to intercept them, there will be no mercy! In addition, Xu Baihu was escorted to the official's car, and if he was assassinated, he would be killed. ”

The man clenched his fists and said yes, and hurriedly sent Xu Baihu, who was in shackles, to Zhang Fuling's car.

After days of tiring travel, this person has lost his appearance, Zhang Fuling grabbed the chain in one hand and the dagger in the other, and put it on the person's neck.

"Alright, let's go."

The chief guard withdrew from the carriage, drew the steel knife that glittered at his waist, and shouted to the crowd:

"One team guards the carriage, and the others rush with me."

As he spoke, he took the lead and galloped towards the col.

The rain was fine and dense, and the man squinted his eyes at the two hills in front of him, as if he was unaffected, and the guards behind him also protected the carriage and drew their swords to follow.

Just as they were reaching the middle of the col, an arrow pierced the sky and stabbed at Zhang Fuling's coachman.

The coachman felt the murderous aura, and hurriedly turned to one side, and a sharp arrow was nailed directly to the car door, and the tail of the arrow kept trembling.

Then there was a shout of killing, and many black-clad masked people rushed down the hillside.

On the wheel of the car escorting the important criminals, a few archers stood up, drew their bows and shot a few arrows, and the men in black kept falling.

Zhang Fuling held the carriage with his hands and sat in the carriage without moving, he knew that many people did not want him to take these prisoners back to Beijing.

This is the seventh time that he has been assassinated along the way, and the guards he has brought with him have been decreasing, so let the lady and them think the same today.

The hand-to-hand combat, both sides had casualties, and soon many people fell to the ground, the captain of the guard had multiple knife wounds on his body, and the horse under him had already been injured and fell to the ground, and the blood had stained the armor on his body, and the two men in black kept fighting with him.

In an instant, a sharp arrow roared out again, heading straight towards the back of the guard's neck, and the two black-clothed men in front of him gave him nowhere to retreat, and the guard-chief knew that it was difficult to get out today, so he carried a sword stabbed by the black-clothed man in his chest.

Turned around and used the body of the man in black to block the arrow behind him.

However, the sharp arrow still passed through the body of the man in black, and pierced him in the back of the heart, and he kicked the man in black with all his strength, shouting with all his might:

"Don't fight, rush out with adults."

At this moment, a team of red-armored men and horses appeared at the other end of the col, and an earth-shattering shout was heard.

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

With the shouting, the team of men and horses had already rushed to the front, and there were also people on both sides of the hill who rushed up, and in less than half a cup of tea, the tide of the battle was turned in an instant.

The captain of the guard, shaking his body and looking at the red armor, the last bit of physical strength dissipated, and he fell to the ground in an instant.

The general in red armor hurriedly waved his hand.

"Quick, carry that person to the hospital, if the person is dead, be careful of the dog's head, this is a loyal martyr, take my Su Hexiong's brand, go to the Tai Hospital for medical treatment."

Hearing the voice, Zhang Fuling dragged the chain on Xu Baihu's body, kicked the car door and got out of the car, looking at the corpses on the ground, Zhang Fuling's face was solemn.

Immediately his eyes fell on the red-clothed and armored general, Su Hexiong's name has always been associated with King Ning, he quickly jumped out of the car and hugged his fist towards the comer.

"This general, but General Su stationed in Datong?"

General Su hurriedly walked over, picked up Zhang Fuling's arm, and patted him on the shoulder, but this action made Zhang Fuling almost fall.

"The old man is Su Hexiong, I received a message from King Ning this morning, saying that you escorted people back to Beijing, and the prince said that he was afraid that someone would make a mess and hurt you, so I asked me to bring someone over to answer it, but I didn't expect that someone was really bold. Okay, hurry up and go back to Beijing, your guards are good, they are very loyal to the lord, and it is important to get the injured to seek medical treatment as soon as possible. ”

Zhang Fuling nodded yes, everyone was busy, Zhang Fuling's carriages and horses were also contributed, and those prisoners were also tied behind the horses, and everyone quickly headed towards the capital.

......

Qingping County, the backyard of the Rejuvenation Hall.

Ah Chang jumped out of the car and shouted towards the yard:

"Hurry up and unload the truck, be careful, don't hurt these fruits."

A group of people rushed up, carried the huge baskets out of the car, and then placed them in the shade of the yard.

Ah Chang wiped the sweat from his forehead, hurriedly ran towards the second floor of the front yard, came to the door of a room and knocked on the door to enter.

The sudden intrusion made everyone in the room look up instantly.

Zhou Heng raised his eyes to look at Ah Chang, twisted the last screw in his hand, and then asked:

"What's going on?"

"Master, those fruits have been found, and we just brought back a cart of them."

Boss Xue's face sank, and he roared angrily:

"You see, what's the fruit? I didn't see us working on new equipment here, this is the most critical moment, I can't say one, two, three, see if I don't flatten your dog's head. ”

Ah Chang wiped his sweat and laughed instead.

"It's the moldy fruits that Shizun asked us to find, and we found a lot of them, just in Wangqiu Mountain in the north of the city."

When Zhou Heng heard this, he instantly straightened his waist, stepped over the various tools in front of him, and quickly followed Ah Chang downstairs, at this time, these baskets had been carried down, and he stepped forward to pick up a fruit and take a look, sure enough, there were large pieces of mildew on it.

Ah Chang asked with some concern: "Master, how is it, is this correct?" ”

Zhou Heng nodded, his face a little excited.

"Very good, that's what Penicillium is."

Ah Chang was a little excited, after all, Zhou Heng rarely showed such an expression, obviously this time the matter was done beautifully.

"Master, what are we going to do now?"

Zhou Heng thought for a while, "Today, the people in the backyard took out two groups, one group took off all the penicillium plaques on these fruits, and they had to wear cloth gloves so as not to hurt their hands, and watch them operate like me." ”

Saying that, Zhou Heng grabbed a fruit, turned it over and turned it over to see, I don't know if this is an apple or what kind of fruit, it is green, with the smell of wine, it is obviously a little fermented, but it tastes bad.

Pick up the fruit, use a knife to peel off the penicillium plaque on it, along with the roots, and throw it on a plate in front of you, and the few small spots behind it are not spared.

Then he threw the remaining fruit into an empty basket, and Zhou Heng raised his eyes to look at Ah Chang.

"Do you see? Wear gloves, never touch these penicillium plaques, and then put the extracted plaques on a plate, do not expose to the sun, and shade the light. ”

Zhou Heng continued: "The second group of people, go and prepare some glutinous rice and taro, soak the rice and grind it into rice milk, and the taro is also cut into dices and ground into slurry, let Wangcai scrub the two oil-free cauldrons, boil these rice milk over low heat and let it cool, those glass petri dishes that Brother Xue ordered before, take out a hundred of them for me, brush them and put them in the sterilizer to steam them for a quarter of an hour, let them cool and set them aside, by the way, they will prepare a bucket of milk for me, which also needs to be boiled and cooled." ”

Ah Chang held a charcoal pen, Zhou Heng said while he wrote down these contents, Zhou Heng rarely said one thing twice, so Ah Chang had to let himself record it at any time.

After reading what he had written, he raised his eyes to look at Zhou Heng.

"Don't worry, Master, I'll go and prepare, and I can prepare it at noon."

Zhou Heng nodded, "Go ahead, it just so happens that our equipment is also going to be debugged, so let's try it later." ”

Zhou Heng got up and saw that someone had brought a petri dish, so he took one first, put a piece of green plum patch into the petri dish and carefully held it upstairs.

Ah Chang looked at the people behind him and commanded in a loud voice:

"I heard it, Shizun asked us to participate in the production of new drugs, this is the greatest honor! Before, we rejuvenated the hall, and we all knew what we relied on to gain a foothold in Qingping County, right? Don't talk nonsense, give me all the strength to dry, come to the pill-making group, clean up the penicillium plaques, be careful not to hurt yourself, don't waste this thing, you must finish it with quality and quantity, pick up the medicine group and go to the No. 2 courtyard to prepare glutinous rice and taro, soak it and grind it into powder, Wangcai goes to brush the pot and boil water, Xiao Liuzi and I go to buy milk, and we all move. ”
