Chapter 248: A Flower Seedling
Wu Jieyu grabbed Li Shan's hand excitedly and asked, "Do you know what disease Queen Wang has?" ”
Li Shan nodded and said, "If my guess is correct, this should be a kind of Gu technique." ”
Wu Jieyu's eyes widened: "Gu technique? What is Gu magic? "Gu art is the secret art of the Miao family, in the Tang Dynasty, people knew very little about Gu art, it is normal that Wu Jieyu has not heard of it, and the vast majority of people in the Han nationality do not know the Gu art of the Miao people. In ancient times, there was no such communication technology as modern times, and the transmission of knowledge was very low.
"This is a kind of Miao technique, and the poisonous insects refined in a special way can produce many strange effects, most of which are harmful to the human body. Some can even be fatal, I don't know much about Gu arts, I don't know what kind of Gu is in Queen Wang. But since I know that it's a Gu technique, it's easy to do. ”
Li Shan didn't know how to solve the Gu, but Li Shan had a very simple method. His blood is the antidote to all Gu. Because Li Shan had the most magical medicine Gu in his body, this Gu could solve all Gu poisons, and Long Xueling really paid a lot for him.
Wu Jieyu said: "Then what should I do?" ”
Li Shan held Wu Jieyu's cold little hand, and said gently and firmly: "Don't worry, I will catch the real murderer in a few days and return your innocence." But you're going to suffer here in the next few days, and I'm going to get you out, trust me. ”
Wu Jieyu also grabbed Li Shan's hand and nodded. Li Shan saw that the time was not early, and he couldn't stay longer, so as not to be discovered, he kissed Wu Jieyujiao lightly on the lips, and quickly slipped out.
Wu Jieyu was stunned there, the corners of her mouth seemed to have Li Shan's breath remaining, and her fingertips still had his residual warmth, and she was stunned for a while.
Li Shan cautiously slipped out of the palace and hurried to the Moon Tower. Hopefully, Yang Miaoling and they have found useful news.
Sure enough, Zhuo Chen and the others heard some news and told Li Shan.
"There's a strange person in Zhao Changnu's mansion recently? What's a strange way? ”
"It is said that this person is dressed very strangely, not in the costume of our Han people, and the accent is also very strange. But the people didn't know where that person was, but they said that Zhao Changnu suddenly took this person to the mansion a few days ago, and now this person has been living in the Zhao mansion. ”
Li Shan felt that this matter was very strange, a strange person, presumably related to this Gu technique. Then it should be the people of the Miao people, the service of wonders, and the difficult accent.
Li Shan understood a little in his heart, and said to Yang Miaoling and the others: "I understand, you can check again to see if there are any other clues, and if there is, report it to me immediately." ”
After speaking, Li Shan hurried back to the house, it was getting late, and he wanted to go to Zhao Changnu's house at night to find out.
With Ah San, Li Shan went to Zhao Changnu's house.
The fewer people who know about this matter, the better, so Li Shan doesn't want to alarm others.
Ah San followed behind Li Shan and said in a very calm tone: "Young master, I think it's better for you not to go in person, just leave anything to me to do." ”
Li Shan turned his head, looked at Ah San, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "Why, look down on me?" Although I don't know martial arts, I still have this skill, right? ”
Ah San said: "In case it is discovered, my subordinates are afraid that it will be difficult to escape with the young master." ”
Ah San's words are very pertinent, in the deep house compound, Ah San has no problem getting in and out by himself, but it is still a little difficult to take a person.
Li Shan pursed his lips and said nonchalantly: "Young Master Ben believes in your ability, stop talking nonsense, hurry up." ”
Zhao Yuanli and Zhao Changnu have also been officials for many years, and Concubine Zhao Li is favored, so these two people are also reused by the emperor. The mansion is also quite solemn and magnificent, with a large courtyard of seven entrances, covering an area of dozens of acres and hundreds of houses.
However, as the so-called net leaks big and small fish, such a deep house compound is more likely for people to take advantage of loopholes. Li Shan and Ah San found a place in the backyard where no one was around, and went directly over the wall to enter.
Ah San's arm strength was amazing, and he directly asked Li Shan to stand on his arm, and threw Li Shan over with one arm. Then he jumped into the Zhao Mansion. The two slipped into the corner of the wall and touched inside.
It's late, it's past dinner time, it's time to hold the lamp, in ancient times, where there were no lighting measures, if there was no moonlight at night, it was basically impossible to reach out and lose five fingers. Li Shan and Ah San are wearing night clothes again, so it is difficult to be discovered.
But it's more difficult to find someone, where to find a Miao person in such a big yard? You have to scratch your tongue and ask first, Li Shan hid in the corner and thought.
"Long Rigland, Long Rigland."
When he fell asleep, someone sent a pillow, and Li Shan looked at a person in the distance who came over with a lantern, who seemed to be a subordinate of the Zhao Mansion, and it seemed that he had also drunk.
"Catch him, don't let him make a sound."
Ah San's hand was like lightning, and when the subordinate had come over, he immediately flew into a throat lock, and the guy was dragged directly to the corner by Ah San without reacting. Ah San's arm strength, one hand grabbed his neck, and the other hand grabbed his vicious hands, and this person couldn't move.
Li Shan walked over slowly and said, "Ask you a question and answer it honestly, or you will break your neck directly." ”
The man nodded busily, he was already scared enough at this time, he had drunk a little wine, but now he was in a cold sweat. He believed what Li Shan said, because the arm that Ah San put on his neck had already told him that as long as he used a little force, his life would be lost.
"Is there a strange person in your house, dressed strangely and with a strange accent? I wonder where he lives now? ”
When Li Shan asked, Ah San increased the strength in his hand very cooperatively, and the man was suddenly frightened, and quickly told the truth: "He is in the third room of the North House guest room, what I said is true, don't kill me." ”
Li Shan was not afraid that what he said was false, and forgave him for not having the guts, so he nodded at Ah San, and Ah San knocked him unconscious with a knife on the back of the neck. He was dragged to a corner and hidden, and the lantern was thrown outside the courtyard.
The two of them went all the way to the North House, and the third room was in the far corner of the North House, and there was candlelight in the room, and the shadows of two people could be seen, as if they were talking about something. The two of them sneaked under the wall of the guest room and listened to the movement inside.
"Are you sure that your Gu has no cure?" It should be someone from the Zhao family who spoke, and I don't know who it is.
"My lord, don't worry, our Miao family's Gu is all secret by ancestral methods, it is very toxic, and ordinary herbs can't cure it at all, if you fall into my Gu, if you don't have an antidote, you will definitely die within a month." The accent of the speaker was strange, not from the capital, but Li Shan could tell that it was a Miao accent when he heard it.
At this time, Li Shan buckled a hole with his finger in front of the window, and vaguely saw the person talking inside, wearing a colorful dress, which turned out to be a flower seedling. This Zhao Changnu can be regarded as having the means, but somehow, he actually found a flower seedling, and it is also a flower seedling who understands Gu techniques.
"Well, since that's the case, then I'm relieved. It's your reward, and tomorrow you can leave. The Zhao family was very satisfied and handed a bag of money to Hua Miao.
Hua Miao put the money in her arms and thanked her again and again.
The Zhao family went out of the guest room, and Li Shan hurriedly followed, and watched the Zhao family leave before turning around and entering the guest room.
Flower seedlings are counting the silver. Suddenly, I saw two uninvited guests, wearing night clothes, very nervous, and quickly hid the money and said, "Who are you and how did you get in?" I'm going to shout. ”
But Ah San took a step faster and went directly up to concoct this flower seedling in the same way. Li Shan said: "Boy, we are here to save you." ”
Hua Miao's eyes were full of questions, but Ah San covered her mouth and couldn't ask.
Li Shan continued: "Hehe, do you know how much of a sin you have committed? The poisonous Gu you made is meant to poison the queen's mother. Let's not talk about how big the sin you have committed, do you think the people of the Zhao family will let you go so easily? Aren't they afraid that you'll leak this thing? As far as I know, only the dead can keep secrets. I already heard it outside just now, Zhao Changnu's words, tomorrow will be your death. ”
Li Shancai didn't know the plans of the Zhao family, but thinking about it, it should be about the same, regardless of whether it was true or not, and scare this flower seedling.
Sure enough, when this flower seedling heard Li Shan say this, she immediately panicked and struggled to speak.
Li Shan motioned for Ah San to let go of his hand, and listened to Hua Miao say nervously: "What you said is true?" Can you save me? If you can save me, I will give you half of the money. ”
Li Shan smiled secretly in his heart, am I here for this silver? But since he was scared, it was easy to do.
"I don't want your silver, on the contrary, I can give you a large sum of silver, and send you out of Chang'an safely. Just need you to tell me something. ”
Hua Miao nodded busily and said, "You say? I must tell you what I know. ”
"What kind of Gu did you order, how did you place the Gu, is there an antidote? Is there any way to check it out? ”
Hua Miao told it all: "My name is Miasma Gu, this Gu can make people unconscious, hallucinate, delirious, and die soon." This kind of Gu is given to people through food, and the food cannot be heated, it must be eaten raw. If you want to test it, you need to take the blood of the person who was deceived, boil it, and you can see that there are black particles in the blood, which is the Gu worm. As for the antidote, there is no one for the time being, and it will take a few days to prepare. ”
Looking at Hua Miao's eyes flickering a little, it seems that he seems to have lied, there must be an antidote, but he seems to realize that his life is in danger now, and he wants to save his life, but Li Shan doesn't want to kill him.
Li Shan said: "Okay, you go out with us in a while, get out of here quickly, and don't come back." ”
