Mayday is still the season of recovery in northern Xinjiang, while in the tropical jungle of Nanban, the weather is already in full swing. The descendants of the pen and the fun pavilion www.biquge.info have a verse that sings the scorching heat of the south: "The mountains want to be scorched, and the fire is too empty." I don't know what the heat is like outside the world! ”

There is also a poem that says: "The Red Emperor exercised authority, and the clouds did not dare to give birth." The clouds are steaming and the lonely crane is panting, and the sea is hot and the giant is frightened. Ninja sitting by the stream? Lazy bamboo walking. How to sand seikes, and return to the long march! ”

In such weather, 200,000 Tang troops, wearing improvised gas masks, marched through the miasma forest. They were sweating profusely, and their clothes seemed to have been fished out of the water.

Li Yi took the lead, and the beads of sweat the size of the bean had just been wiped off, and they came out of his forehead again in an instant. Li Yizhi was like being in a sauna, his whole body was like a fire, and his throat and eyes were smoking. He really wanted to take a sip of water, but the miasma around him made him afraid to take off his gas mask.

………………

Half a day later.

On the other side of the jungle, there is a large meadow, with clear mountains in the distance and beautiful water in the distance. Birds chirp and fly, and small animals forage for food in the meadows.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Suddenly, there was a loud, sustained noise. In a few moments, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses rumbled out of the jungle. Flocks of birds scattered and flew away, and the small animals burrowed in fright.

After half a day of difficult traversal, the Tang army finally crossed the vast miasma forest. The soldiers grabbed their gas masks and looked up to the sky and took a big breath of fresh air.

On this hot day, wearing such a thick thing is not pleasant.

More and more soldiers came out of the jungle and gathered according to the formation.

Li Yi rode out of the jungle, immediately threw away the gas mask, and found that there was no water when he touched it. He also found that after many soldiers rushed out of the jungle, they fell to the ground and fainted as soon as their anger was discharged, and anxiously ordered: "Order, all departments send people to find water sources!" ”

Some logistics soldiers took out spare water bladders, and after the officers distributed them, the soldiers immediately dispersed, looking for water sources everywhere.

Soon, a team found a source of water on the west side of the jungle edge, and a hundred springs gushed out. The water is so clear that you will feel the urge to drink it all.

"Wait!" The squad leader grabbed the soldiers who were eager to drink water and said, "The emperor doesn't have water to drink, so send some to the emperor first." ”

"Okay!" The soldier held back his thirst, filled a water bladder, and hurried away.

At this time, Li Yi, who had come out of the jungle, was changing into dry clothes, and the three hundred Tang royal guards around him were guarding with their backs.

Li Yi also jumped to his feet hotly, couldn't wait to set up the imperial tent, and directly took off his imperial robe for a new one.

At this time, Dian Wei rushed over with a happy face and shouted: "Your Majesty, you have found water, you have found water!" ”

When Li Yi heard this, he couldn't care about other things, and said in a hoarse voice: "Hurry up, bring it to me!" ”

Just as Li Yi was about to pick up the water to drink, an anxious voice came from afar: "The emperor can't!" ”

But it was Huang Zhong who came on horseback, and when he saw Li Yi drinking water, his face turned purple with fright, and after he issued a warning, he took out a painted bird bow, bent the bow and set up an arrow, and shot it with an arrow.

"What!" The guards didn't expect Huang Zhong to dare to shoot the emperor, but they were stunned, and the sharp arrow slashed over their heads.

With a "poof" sound, the water bladder in Li Yi's hand was suddenly shot through, and when the clear spring water overflowed, Li Yi's clothes were soaked again.

"Escort!"

"Escort!"

……

That's when the guards reacted.

Li Cunxiao, who was on guard on the periphery, rushed towards Huang Zhong like crazy, and the Yu Wang lance in his hand was held high, flashing with cold light, and roared: "Traitor Huang Zhong, assassinate the king, take your life!" ”

"The spring water is poisonous!" Huang Zhong shouted, rolled his saddle and dismounted, and bowed to the ground.

Li Cunxiao was stunned for a moment, and still split it down, but it was replaced by a thorn to a split.

Huang Zhong snorted and was cut to the ground. Then, the guards rushed forward, punched and kicked, and tied up the five flowers.

When Huang Zhong was brought to Li Yi, his helmet also fell off, his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and his gray hair was floating in the wind. However, he still kept shouting: "The spring water is poisonous, and the criminals have no choice but to stab him!" ”

Li Yi was originally very angry, his facial features were entangled together, and his eyes were full of murderous intent. He couldn't believe that Huang Zhong actually rebelled and dared to shoot arrows at himself.

However, after hearing Huang Zhong's words clearly, he still suppressed the fury in his heart and said sharply: "Let him speak!" ”

Huang Zhong was full of self-blame, but he was also forced to do so, his hands were tied behind his back, so he hoeed the ground with his head and hissed: "Your Majesty, the spring water is poisonous." Just now, after a soldier drank it, blood spurted out of his mouth, and he couldn't speak! ”

Li Yi couldn't believe it at first, but the memories that suddenly appeared in his mind made him suddenly realize.

"Poison Spring! How did I forget about it! Li Yi couldn't wait to give himself a few slaps, and finally slapped his head, "It's really hot!" ”

"Decree that soldiers are forbidden to drink spring water, no! Do not drink any water sources around here, hurry! ”

"Yes!" Dian Wei took the order and left.

Li Yi found out that Huang Zhong was still tied up, and hurriedly ordered Huang Zhong to be untied, and said gratefully: "Hansheng is not an assassin, but a meritorious rescuer, let go of Hansheng quickly!" ”

The guards hurriedly untied Huang Zhong, and Huang Zhong bowed again: "The criminal minister is reckless, shocked the holy driver, please punish the emperor!" ”

………………

Although Li Yi's order was quite timely, there were still many soldiers who had already drunk the poisonous spring before that.

"Your Majesty, a total of three hundred soldiers have ......been poisoned," Guo Jia said cautiously.

Guo Jia also broke out in a cold sweat in his heart, not because there were too many poisoned soldiers, three hundred soldiers was nothing for an army of 200,000. He was afraid of something else.

If it weren't for Huang Zhong, if the emperor was also poisoned, I'm afraid that this day would collapse.

Li Yi asked Hua Tuo, who was with the army, "Mr. Yuanhua, how is it?" ”

Hua Tuo shook his head again and again and said, "Weird, weird!" ”

Even the divine doctor Hua Tuo was helpless, and Li Yi's heart sank to the bottom for a while.

Hua Tuo gritted his teeth, picked up the poisonous spring water on the side, and said to Li Yi: "You can only test the poison yourself!" ”

"No!" Xu Maogong hurriedly stopped Hua Tuo and said to Li Yi, who was speechless with a cold face on the side, "Your Majesty, if Mr. Yuanhua has a good deal, the big thing will go!" ”

Li Yi was in a heavy mood, and said in his heart that I would go to a big deal now.

Although there are not many poisoned soldiers now, only more than three hundred, for an army of 200,000, it is simply negligible. However, this problem cannot be seen in this way, and the real seriousness of the problem is hidden behind the surface. That is, many soldiers in the army are now in a state of unbearable thirst, and if they can't drink water, the consequences are unimaginable.

Moreover, the weather was unbearably hot, and the soldiers were already dehydrated after rushing out of the miasma forest, and even if they could be cured immediately, they could not find drinking water, and my army of 200,000 was still finished.

There is an old saying that every poison must be cured within seven steps. Whether this sentence makes sense or not, Li Yi wants to try it. So, he took Hua Tuo and others to the poison spring to check out.

I saw that under a tall cliff, there was such a large pool of water, which was very clear and looked quite pleasing. The water in the pool is so deep that you can't see the bottom at a glance. In many places on the water, it is like boiling water. Obviously, this is this pool of water gathered by a living spring in the ground.

Li Yi said: "Mr. Yuanhua, you take people to look around to see if there are any animals and plants around the pond that can be used for medicine." ”

"Yes!" Hua Tuo agreed, and immediately took a group of military doctors with him, scattered around, and carefully investigated.

"Report ...... Your Majesty, many soldiers showed symptoms of dehydration! Xu Huang came on horseback and reported to Li Yiyu.

Surrounded by barren mountains and mountains, this pool of water is surrounded by birds and beasts, and obviously, even the animals know that the water here is not drinkable.

Just one step, 200,000 people fell to death. As the leader of the whole army, Li Yi cried with a sad face, and was about to die of sorrow. Xu Maogong and others were also worried.

"What a good thing that is! Without water, the army is in danger! Guo Jia sighed.

Xu Maogong has always been calm when he encounters things, and he is not messing up at this moment. When he looked around, he saw a building on the high ridge to the west, which looked like a temple.

Thinking of the emperor's series of performances on the southern expedition before, Xu Maogong suddenly showed joy and said to Li Yi: "Your Majesty, there may be a land temple on that mountain. You...... Do you want to talk to the god of the land......

Li Yi instantly changed color when he heard this, how could he still have the heart to engage in these things that deceived people, he was furious, and said: "I talked to the river god, the mountain god, and now I want to go to the land god?" Why don't you go? ”

The Son of Heaven was angry, and his blood flowed, although Li Yi has always been enlightened, no one dared to underestimate his majesty. Therefore, when they saw that he was angry, they were all on their knees.

Xu Maogong wiped his sweat violently, and he was convinced that the emperor could communicate with the gods. But I don't know why the emperor is angry, and he bows: "When the crisis is in danger, the minister has nothing to do, and the minister is a military advisor of the military aircraft department, and he is derelict in his duties...... Capital crime! Capital crime! ”

"The minister is derelict in his duties...... and the rest of the military advisers also followed suit.

All the soldiers bowed together and said: "The ministers are guilty......"

Since ancient times, courtiers have assisted the king, and let the king figure out everything to do, what else do you want these courtiers to do? Therefore, Li Yi's group of courtiers also sincerely pleaded guilty.

"Alright, alright, all up." After Li Yi vented, his anger subsided, and he began to turn his brain to find a solution.

Li Yi roughly knew that the reason why these springs were poisonous seemed to be because the spring water was rich in heavy metal particles, which led to poisoning after people quoted them. However, Li Yi did not know what heavy metal particles were contained in these springs and what methods should be used to detoxify them. After all, he was a special forces soldier in his previous life, not a chemist.

However, Li Yi believes that even if he is not a chemist and cannot find a solution to detoxification, his predecessors have experience in detoxification.
