Chapter Seventy-Two: Hope for Recovery

This time, Zhao Chen lay down for another three days, and three days later, he woke up again! It's just that now it's not just that terrible dead gray on his face, but the skin of his whole body has turned dead gray! His hair was losing its luster, and his eyes were bloodshot!

Zhao Chen felt dazed, his whole body was unusually heavy, and it was a little difficult for him to raise his hand!

At this time, he suddenly saw a person lying on his stomach at the head of the bed! The man with white hair on his head, who is it not Li Gang?

"Teacher!" Zhao Chen couldn't help but whisper.

When the voice came out, he felt that his throat was sore to the extreme! All of a sudden, he almost fainted!

He closed his eyes softly and gasped! At this time, Li Gang woke up!

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you ...... You...... Woke up? Li Gang said excitedly.

"Yes, I'm awake! I'm afraid I won't live long, though! Zhao Chen smiled bitterly.

Three days ago, when he woke up, he felt chills all over his body! Now that he woke up again, he didn't even feel the feeling of chills all over his body, but instead a feeling of numbness! The body is extremely numb, as if this body no longer belongs to me! Even with his medical knowledge, he knew that the situation was much worse now than it was a few days ago! I was already seriously injured, and now I have been attacked by severe poison, and I am afraid that it will be really difficult to survive!

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, don't despair, we have gone to find a well-known doctor in the world! When those famous doctors arrive, they will definitely be able to heal His Royal Highness the Prince's body! Li Gang said with tears in his eyes.

"I don't want to despair! But I've been injured one after another, and I'm the way I am now, and it's hard not to despair! Zhao Chen smiled bitterly again.

"Your Highness, as long as you are not dead, you must not despair! You have to believe that there is hope! We also have to believe that we can cure you, the prince! Li Gang said.

Zhao Chen was silent for a long time, nodded, and said, "What you said also has a certain truth!" ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Yue Fei and Wang De have already gone to invite a famous doctor! As long as that famous doctor arrives, he will definitely be able to heal His Highness's injuries! Li Gang said.

"Oh? Did both of them go out at the same time? What is a famous doctor? In what place? Zhao Chen said.

"That doctor is a Taoist priest, and now he is practicing in Zhongnan Mountain! He's a very good doctor! Your Highness, you must persevere, at least until that Taoist priest arrives! Li Gang said.

"Daoist? Who will it be? Zhao Chen said secretly, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "What the teacher said is right, I will at least hold on for a while!" I'm not dead yet, there is still hope for a cure! I'll stick to it until I die completely! I want to see this thief, who brought me into this age and made me suffer so much, is he going to let me die? I don't believe it! Even if this is really the case, I have to fight with the sky, fight with life, man will win the sky, I will definitely live! Teacher, you bring me some porridge first, I want to eat some first! At least not to starve here! ”

There was suddenly a sense of grief and indignation in his heart, grief and indignation for God and fate! Originally, he was a senior in high school in modern society, and he had a good life, but God just let him travel to the Great Song Dynasty! When he came to the Great Song Dynasty, he became the prince, but this prince didn't last long, he was about to ruin the country and was forced to flee! He has been on the run since last winter until today! finally came to Hanzhong and settled down, but he was assassinated again! After being assassinated, he was lucky not to die, but his internal organs and meridians were damaged, and others asserted that he would not live to be 20 years old! After that, it was the unusually gentle Ah Yao who took care of him, who knew that Ah Yao was also an assassin, and he wanted to kill him completely with poison!

He felt a strong injustice in his heart! He didn't understand why fate was so unfair!

"God won't let me live, I just want to live! I don't just want to live, I want to live well! I want God to see who I Zhao Chen is, whether I Zhao Chen can survive, and whether I Zhao Chen can trample all the enemies and all the hardships under my feet! Once again, there was a resolute look on his face!

"Jurchens, Kang Wang Zhao Gou, Zhekeqiu, Assassin...... And A-Yao, you ...... I won't let you go! Aren't you going to kill me? I just won't let you get your way! Zhao Chen said secretly.

Over there, Li Gang had already brought the porridge in, he served Zhao Chen to eat the porridge, and when he saw the firm light in Zhao Chen's eyes, he was overjoyed! No matter what, as long as Zhao Chen himself is not desperate, then there is still hope to live! If Zhao Chen himself is desperate, I'm afraid Zhao Chen really won't live for a few days!

*** ***

Yue Fei and Wang De are riding horses and galloping towards the north at the moment!

They gradually walked out of the Hanzhong Basin and came to the higher mountains! At this time, the weather was already very hot, but the internal strength of the two of them was profound, especially Yue Fei had already reached the realm of cold and heat, so the heat did not have much impact on them! It's just that the horses under their feet can't be the same as them, and the horses are sweating everywhere at the moment!

"Two months ago, we just left from the Great Scattered Pass, and now we are going through the Great Scattered Pass again!" Wang De looked at the pass in the distance and said.

It turns out that they are not far from the Great Dispersion Pass now!

"Yes! Who would have thought that so many things would happen after leaving the Great Dispersion Pass! We were ordered to protect His Highness, but His Highness was injured repeatedly! I'm so guilty! Yue Fei said gloomily.

"The assassins are endless, and you can't be blamed alone!" Wang Dedao.

"If I catch those assassins, I'm going to tear them to pieces!" Yue Fei gritted his teeth and said.

"Those assassins should all be from the Demon Path!" Wang Dedao.

"Someone in the Demon Path? Did General Wang find out the details of them? Yue Fei said.

"Not really! The whereabouts of the people in the demon path are secretive, ignoring all laws and morals! I seem to have heard the name of the Xiaoyaozi and the Demon Queen, and he is the supreme master of the Demon Dao! However, now is not the time to settle accounts with them, now we have to find someone to cure His Highness first! Wang Dedao.

"General Wang, is that Taoist priest really as amazing as you say?" Yue Fei said.

"I'm afraid it's even more amazing than I said! That Taoist priest has a great reputation in the Hanzhong generation, he was originally born in a rich and noble family, and he was once admitted to the Jinshi, and then became a Taoist priest for some reason! He traveled all over the world, hung pots to help the world, and for all incurable diseases, he cured all the diseases! Moreover, he is especially good at treating poisonous wounds, whether it is all kinds of snake venom and insect venom, he can cure! I heard that he also went to Tiannan, where there is a Jianghu sect called the Five Poisons Sect, which is extremely good at using poison! Someone was once injured by the Five Poisons Sect, and the famous doctors of the entire Tiannan were helpless, and he was also cured by medicine! I found out the accurate news and knew that he was a peerless doctor, so I went to invite him! As long as you invite him, you will definitely be able to cure His Highness's poisonous wounds! Wang Dedao.

"I hope so!" Yue Fei nodded.

It was getting dark, but the two of them still didn't stop, and they continued to ride their horses! In the middle of the night, they finally came to the bottom of the Great Scattered Pass!

At this moment, the Dasanguan is guarded by the Zhejia army, but it is a dark night, and the soldiers of the Zhejia army have already fallen asleep! Even on the city wall of Dasanguan, there are not a few soldiers of the Folding Army! The discipline of this family army is loose, and after the Jin soldiers retreated, they have long since returned to their original state!

Yue Fei and Wang De shouted loudly below, and someone finally arrived!

"Who are you? What's screaming down there in the middle of the night? What appeared was an adjutant general, who said coldly.

"Open the gates quickly! We're going to get over! Yue Fei said loudly.

"Nonsense! In the middle of the night, how can I let you pass! If you shout again, I will have your arrows shot at once!" The adjutant general was impatient in his heart and said coldly.

"I'm here on the orders of the general! Here's his token! Yue Fei said.

"What?" Hearing this, the adjutant general above was taken aback!

Although they were arrogant and domineering to ordinary people, he was shocked to hear that the two people below had come on a begging order!

Yue Fei had already taken out the token, but it was dark now, and the top was so far away from the bottom that the deputy general above couldn't see the token below at all! It's just that this deputy general didn't check, but immediately asked people to open the city gate and let Yue Fei and Wang De in!

"It's a token!" Yue Fei and Wang De entered the Dasan Pass, and Yue Fei took out the token again and said.

"Good! The two of them really came on the orders of General Zhe! I wonder what the general's order is? "The lieutenant looks flattering! He recognized the appearance of the token, it was the highest level token in the Folding Mansion, which generally represented a hundred thousand urgent things! On weekdays, the lieutenant general will not see such a token at all!

"It's confidential! Can't say it to you! Prepare us a few fast horses, we're leaving!" Yue Fei said.

"Gone?" The adjutant general was stunned for a moment and said, "Where are the two generals going in this dark night?" ”

"We're going to Zhongnan Mountain to run errands, and we can't delay for a moment! Quickly open the gates of the north and let us pass! Yue Fei said.

Seeing that the two of them were so anxious, the deputy general also knew that something great must have happened! At that moment, the deputy general hurriedly asked people to prepare horses and let people open the city gate in the north, and after Yue Fei and Wang De replaced the new horses, they left in the dust! Looking at the backs of the two, the deputy general secretly guessed that he didn't know what was going on in Hanzhong!

Zhao Chen was assassinated, seriously injured, and poisoned, although he is now dying, but the news has not been widely spread! Zhe Keqiu has been tightly controlling the news, and even Zhe Keqiu has other plans in mind! If Zhao Chen is really dying of illness, it is even possible to kill all the insiders, and then find a young man to replace Zhao Chen as the crown prince, so as to achieve his plan of blackmailing the Son of Heaven to order the princes! Of course, there are too many flaws in doing so! Li Gang, Li Ruoshui, Wang De, Yue Fei and others all knew about Zhao Chen, and countless soldiers of the Zhejia Army outside the Qianqing Palace also knew about Zhao Chen! If he really wants to find someone to replace Zhao Chen, there are too many people who know, and sooner or later it will leak out! So, if it wasn't a last resort, I wouldn't have done that!

*** ***

Yue Fei and Wang De came out of Dasanguan, went all the way to the north, and gradually came to the boundary of Fengxiang Mansion!

After arriving here, it was already dawn, and the two headed towards the east!

Along the way, they saw countless ruined villages and countless corpses exposed in the wilderness! The Jurchen invasion, everywhere they went, slaughtered countless people! I don't know how many ordinary people died under the iron hooves of the Jurchens! Even if there are no dead, many have been driven by the Jurchens towards the north!

The Jurchens rise between the white mountains and black waters, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong, but they have a great disadvantage, that is, the population is too small! They are even far inferior to the Khitans of the Liao State at the beginning! All the Jurchens together will not exceed a million! Therefore they need the population!

For the Jurchens, in addition to plundering wealth, one of the most important purposes of war was to plunder population! After every war, the Jurchens had to drive a large number of people to the north! This is also the strategy that Wanyan Agu made at the beginning, they want to turn a strong military force into a powerful national strength, they want to establish a new powerful country in the north out of thin air, so that the originally desolate north becomes prosperous! In later generations, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, when the Jurchens rose again, this was also their basic national policy, and one of the main purposes of their war was still to plunder the population and increase the national strength by virtue of the population!

Two months ago, Jin Wushu had come all the way to Fengxiang Mansion! But later, the Jurchen generalissimo Wanyan Zonghan wanted to transport a large amount of Kaifeng's wealth and population to the north, so the golden vulture had to retreat to Chang'an! However, along the way, he expelled a large number of people in the direction of Chang'an, so this area is now extremely desolate and has no population!

Yue Fei and Wang De stayed awake for seven days in a row, and finally on the afternoon of this day, they came to the foot of the main peak of Zhongnan Mountain!
