Chapter 522: Being deceived into thinking about the cliff
With Shangguan Yu's warrant, the people of the county government did not doubt the authenticity of the matter, and the county magistrate went directly to Hongtu Town with the officials.
The identity of the above official Yu does not need to meet the county order in person.
But the situation was serious, and Shangguan Yu had to personally advise him, in case the county order did not pay enough attention to this matter.
"People can be taken away by the county order, and those who are controlled by poison are not opponents at all with the skills of the officials. Once someone does something on the road, the official is afraid that he will not survive. ”
Shangguan Yu put a piece of paper on the table and said solemnly: "This is the prescription for the antidote, and the county order can be stored more." In addition, the emperor doesn't want news to spread about this matter, so the county order should know what to do, right? ”
"Thank you Shizi for reminding me, the lower official will issue a gag order, dare someone spread rumors, and immediately punish him for treason! The lower officials will send a letter to the emperor in a secret way, and send it to the capital in an expedited manner of 800 miles. The county magistrate hurriedly bowed down.
"It's your business, this world is just passing by, just by the way." Shangguan Yu got up indifferently, "This prince is in a hurry to rush back to the capital, and this place will be handed over to you." ”
As if thinking of something, Shangguan Yu took two steps, then suddenly turned sideways and said, "Although those people are poisoned and lose their minds, if they have enough antidote, they can return to normal." The people of this town have suffered a lot, and if you can settle it well, it can be regarded as making up for it. ”
The county commander panicked, and the cold sweat that had just been wiped off resurfaced again.
"Thank you for the teachings of the prince, the lower officials should do a good job in dealing with the aftermath, so that the people in the jurisdiction can live and work in peace and contentment." The county magistrate bowed down again, afraid of the ridiculous idea in his heart.
If it weren't for Shangguan Yu saying this before leaving, the county magistrate would have beaten Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, which was also due to habit.
Glancing at the county order, Shangguan Yu only thought that he didn't see his little thoughts, and strode away.
If it weren't for the impact of the poisoning incident, Shangguan Yu would definitely not delay his trip, and there were still things he needed to do in the capital.
"Let the wind go, the prince of Nanwan ignored the royal family of the Eastern Han Dynasty, bullied the princess of the current dynasty, and made her pregnant before marriage." On the pipeline, Shangguan Yu instructed the secret guard: "Remember, this news must come from Chen Guifei's mother's family. ”
The Dark Guard took the order and left first.
The marriage between the two countries is what the people are willing to see, after all, the affiliated parliament pays tribute to the imperial court, and the imperial treasury is abundant, so it will not impose taxes, and the life of the common people is naturally better.
Therefore, the princess of this marriage has changed objects, if there is a will, the people will probably blame the Han Wangfu and Princess Yayang, which Shangguan Yu will never allow.
Although Shangguan Yu is not in the capital, he has always paid attention to the affairs of the capital, especially the matters that will affect the Han Wangfu and Princess Yayang, and they will be dealt with as soon as possible.
If it wasn't for the poisoning before, the palace had the intention of letting Princess Yayang make peace, Shangguan Yu would have acted, and there was no need to wait for Princess Han to control the whole thing.
Not to mention that Shangguan Yu hurried back to Beijing, Bai Ling's affairs in the Medicine King Valley were arranged, and he was ready to leave.
"Young Valley Master, my master has an accident, please go and save him!" The girl shouted in a panic, because she didn't see the road under her feet, she tripped over the threshold and threw herself at Bai Ling's feet.
"You're Lingqiu?" Bai Ling looked at the girl with disheveled hair and asked condescendingly, without meaning to help the person up.
Lingqiu nodded vigorously, reached out and grabbed the corner of Bai Ling's skirt, and said eagerly: "The master went to Siguo Cliff and didn't come back for a long time, so I went to Siguo Cliff to find the master, and the result was ...... Whining...... The master was poisoned, and his face turned green...... Whining...... The master said let me come to the young valley master, and asked the young valley master to save my master! ”
Lingqiu's tears and snot were glued together, and he tugged at Bai Ling's skirt vigorously, looking like he was afraid that Bai Ling would refuse.
"Have you informed the five elders?" Bai Ling asked.
"Nope." Ling Qiu cried and shook his head, "The disciple is in a hurry to save the master, and he hasn't had time to notify the five elders yet. The young valley master hurry up and think about the cliff, if it's too late, my master won't be saved! Whining! The disciple will go and inform the elders, in case the master ...... him."
Lingqiu covered his mouth and cried, not daring to say any more.
Looking at Ling Qiu, who was crying bitterly, it took a long time to hear Bai Ling speak: "Okay, I'll go to Siguo Cliff, you have to inform the five elders quickly." ”
As Bai Ling took a step, Ling Qiu's hand slowly let go.
"Disciple, thank you to the young valley master, as long as the master is safe and sound, the disciple will remember the kindness of the young valley master!" Lingqiu bowed his head behind him.
Bai Ling didn't respond to Ling Qiu's words, and walked towards the outside of the courtyard with his hands down.
Before going out of the door, Bai Ling said in a low voice: "After a cup of tea, I will notify the five elders again." ”
A wind blew, and no one saw the figure of the dark guard, only Bai Ling himself knew that the dark guard had already gone to obey the order.
Because Bai Ling ordered the task, Haitang was not in the yard, because he didn't know Bai Ling's whereabouts.
In order to be able to go up to Siguo Cliff earlier, when no one was around, Bai Ling deliberately entered the space and used the speed of the space.
Therefore, when Bai Ling arrived at Siguo Cliff, it only took less than half a pillar of incense, and the elders could at least open half a pillar of incense.
"Are you Zhiqiu?" Bai Ling looked at the young man who was standing on the Siguo Cliff waiting for him, and he still had an impression of him.
There are many disciples in the Medicine King Valley, and Bai Ling has not been in contact with everyone, so naturally he can't name everyone.
But the person who offended Bai Ling, Bai Ling remembered, including the night when he first entered the outer periphery of the Medicine King Valley, who was the man who did not speak.
"The young valley master is finally here, the master is inside, and the young valley master is invited to come with his disciples." Zhiqiu nodded, eagerly made a gesture of please, and took the lead in walking inside.
The entrance to the ice cave has been sealed because of the ice worms.
But thinking about the cliff, it was not closed.
Following Zhiqiu's pace, the two soon came to the entrance of a small cave, which was supposed to be a place for the punished disciple to shelter from the wind and rain.
It's just that there is no lighting in the cave, and the more you go, the darker it gets, and the road is also bumpy.
"Zhiqiu, I can't see the road ahead, are you there?" Bai Ling opened his mouth a little nervously, and just kicked a stone under his feet, and the person fell to the ground, "Ah! My feet! Zhiqiu, did you hear me? My foot is twisted, can you help me? ”
Bai Ling sat on the ground, rubbing his steps.
But no matter how Bai Ling shouted, no one responded to her, as if she was the only one in the cave.
"Zhiqiu, did you have an accident? When you hear the voice, you will reply to me, Zhiqiu! Bai Ling shouted a little anxiously, if you could see her expression, you would definitely find that Bai Ling's eyes were not panicked.
Groping for the stones beside him, Bai Ling hit the cave, one after another, as if hoping to find Zhiqiu in this way.
But no matter how many movements Bai Ling made, there was no sound coming from inside.
"Oh no, it can't be that Zhiqiu is also in danger, right? So what should Senior Brother Xue do? Throwing a dozen stones, Bai Ling muttered nervously, "No, I have to find them." ”
Biting his thin lip, Bai Ling leaned on the stone wall, stood up little by little, and walked towards the cave.
"Senior Brother Xue, I'm here to save you, you must hold on!" Bai Ling limped towards the cave, the corners of his mouth hooked up with a smile that did not match his tone.
