Chapter 39: Return to the Palace
Kwai Fen'er's shout didn't make Kwai Jingyue turn back, he still rushed to the puppet, standing in the crowd and waving for the eagle guards to stand back and face it alone.
But this time, the puppet didn't seem to be of much interest to him, and when he saw the eagle guards around him retreating, he crossed Aoi Jingyue and looked at the carriage where Aoi Fan'er was, and then rushed straight over.
Its target turned out to be Kwai Fan'er, could it be that the last time on the South Styx Mountain, it was really a plan to capture the old people?
Kwai Jingyue naturally couldn't let it get close to Kwai Fan'er, so she took a few steps sideways in front of it, raised her sword and waved it, and cut off one of the puppet's arms, everyone was surprised, and Kwai Jingyue herself was slightly taken aback.
The puppet had its arm cut off, paused for only a moment, and then rushed towards Aoi Fan'er. Aoi Jingyue flashed in front of it again, severing its leg with a sword, and it fell to the ground.
The eagle guards were very surprised, this puppet was invulnerable when they cut it, but Kwai Jingyue cut it was the same as cutting tofu, they could only explain that Kwai Jingyue was very strong, very strong, and too strong.
However, Kwai Jingyue knows in his own heart, he knows how much strength he has, although he deduces his current strength, even if it is more than enough to deal with a puppet who almost killed him on the Southern Styx Mountain that day, but this puppet is really a little different.
Although they are all puppet corpses, they look roughly the same, and they are also like copper and iron, but this time the puppet corpse is obviously not intelligent, and it is far less agile than the puppet corpse that day, like a defective product.
The puppet had half of its hands and feet cut off, and could only crawl on the ground, but it still headed towards Kwai Fan'er's carriage, which meant that he would not stop until he reached his goal.
Although it was strange, Kwai Jingyue didn't want it to get close to Kwai Fen'er anymore, so she raised her hand and slashed off its head with a sword.
As soon as the withered head was tilted, the empty eye sockets were facing Kwai Jingyue, and in the next moment, the puppet corpse without intelligence actually grinned and laughed weirdly.
"Interesting, interesting, the power of yin and yang, it must be used by me! Hahahaha! The dry and eerie laughter echoed, and the puppet gradually turned into ashes, mixing with the dirt.
Kwai Fen'er couldn't help but be surprised when Kwai Jingyue was so powerful again, but Kwai Jingyue was surprised that the puppet could still speak like this, but he didn't care about what the puppet said, and when he saw a gust of wind blowing the ashes away, he turned around and jumped back into the carriage.
Since the puppet has been destroyed, Jun Yue ordered the eagle guards to continue to move forward, and they came to pick up Kwai Fan'er for more than 100 miles, originally to protect her all the way, in case there was any accident, but now seeing Kwai Jingyue's strength, he suddenly felt that they were a little redundant......
The carriage jolted forward again, and Kwai Jingyue put away the soft sword and stretched lazily.
"Master, why do you seem to have become a lot more powerful......" Kwai Fan'er always felt that his strength was not normal.
"Do you think that the teacher is very tall, powerful, and handsome?" Kwai Jingyue smiled proudly, and shook her hair by the way, posing in a pose that he thought was handsome.
The corners of Kwai Fan'er's mouth twitched, "Don't interrupt, what's going on with you, you couldn't fight Le Zheng Ancestor on the day of the life and death fight, but later you were able to kill him alone on the South Styx Mountain, and then you were almost killed by a puppet corpse, but now you can easily destroy it, what happened in the days when you disappeared?" Why do you grow in strength every time you disappear and come back? ”
She never knew that there was any medicine or secret method that could make people increase their power so much, and even if there were, there would be a price for such a drug secret method to improve their power, and it would hurt people fundamentally, and the greater the improvement, the greater the price she would pay, so how could she not worry.
Kwai Jingyue seemed to expect Kwai Fan'er to ask him about this, so she got up and moved to sit down beside her, making a mysterious appearance, and leaned into her ear, and the hot breath she exhaled hit her ear, making her shrink.
"Tell you secretly, actually, it's Luli, he gave me the ability to wear it!" Kwai Jingyue lowered her voice, for fear that others would hear it, "Luli is the only yin and yang deer in the world, and the strength in his body is strong, so he passed on a lot of skills to me, and I will naturally become stronger!" ”
"Luri?" Kwai Fan'er thought of that day on the Nanming Mountain, Luli only waved his hand and wiped out the puppet corpse, which is indeed too strong, and Luli and Kwai Jingyue seem to have a very good relationship, if it is said that Luli passed on his skills, it is indeed possible.
"But why did Luli pass on his power to you?" Kwai was still a little confused.
"Oh, didn't I get injured a few times, Luli passed on the power to me, of course, to help me heal." Kwai Jingyue immediately answered.
"So that's the ......" nodded slightly, Kwai Fan'er felt a little relieved, "As long as it is not the use of any medicine, what secret method is cultivated, it is a skill passed on to you by Luli, it should not hurt your body, and I am relieved." ”
Kwai Jingyue immediately smiled again, "Fan'er, you haven't answered me yet, are you handsome for the teacher just now?" ”
"......" Kwai Fan'er squinted and looked him up and down, "Handsome, handsome." Very perfunctory tone.
Kwai Jingyue could naturally hear it, and immediately wilted, pursed her lips aggrievedly, and sat aside again.
And Kwai Fan'er, although Fang Cai said that she was relieved, she always felt a little uneasy in her heart, she couldn't tell what this uneasiness was, whether it was because of the fact that Luli passed on the gong to him, or because of what Fang Cai's puppet corpse said.
Holding down the restlessness in her chest, Kwai couldn't help but pray, hoping that there would be no more accidents on this trip.
Since the puppet corpse, there have been no other troubles on the road, and after three days of wind and rain, they finally saw the high walls of the Imperial City of Cangyu.
Jun Yue led them, with the token given by the hundred miles of robbery, they and their group ran all the way into the palace unimpeded, Kwai Fan'er and Kwai Jingyue just got off the carriage, and Jun Yue led them to hurriedly walk to the dormitory of the hundred miles of robbery.
Halfway through their journey, they received a message from Fu Tian, saying that Baili was in critical condition and asked them to return to the palace as soon as possible.
In this way, they rushed over day and night, and although they were tired at this time, they could no longer delay, and they had to heal him in time, and they could not afford to delay the catastrophe for a hundred miles.
The maidservants in front of the Qilong Hall came and went, covering their mouths and noses with thick cloths, and many imperial doctors only entered and could not leave, and the air was filled with a tense and panicked atmosphere.
Kwai Fan'er and Kwai Jingyue also covered their faces with thick cloth, and Kwai Jingyue also sprinkled some potions on the cloth by the way, and took protective measures, and the two walked into the Qilong Hall together.
Jun Yue and Ah Ran were naturally waiting outside the hospital, and there was nothing they could do to help, so they could only keep a safe distance and ensure their own safety.
The Qilong Hall was full of imperial doctors and attendants, and when they saw Kwai Fan'er and the two of them walking in, they stopped their panicked footsteps and saluted Kwai Fan'er. Ever since they saw the strength of this magic doctor, they no longer dared to underestimate this young woman.
Kwai Fan'er didn't have time to pay attention to them, and walked to the bed with Kwai Jingyue, and couldn't help but be shocked when she saw the person struggling on the couch in pain.
Baili Yu's body has withered a lot, his hands and feet are tied by silk cloth strips and fixed to the bedpost, and the skin that is faintly exposed under the clothes has begun to rot and exude a peculiar smell.
Not only that, but he seems to have lost his mind, and he didn't recognize her when he saw Aoi Fen'er, but he was still struggling in pain, so you can imagine how much pain this plague will bring to people.
No longer hesitating, Kwai Fen'er pricked a few silver needles on the head of the hundred miles of catastrophe, temporarily calming him down, and Kwai Fen'er was able to reach out to his pulse.
Kwai Fen'er frowned, this plague is really not simple, it will consume a lot of water in the human body, and then gradually destroy all parts of the body, causing it to rot.
The plague will gradually erode people's sanity, causing them to become insane, and eventually they will become insane, and their bodies will be full of holes, and then they will be unable to recover.
"It's really a bit troublesome, Master, come and take a look." Kwai Fen'er's face was very solemn, this plague was indeed tricky for her.
When Kwai Jingyue heard this, she also probed her pulse, and after a while, she also showed a solemn expression, "This plague ...... It's not an ordinary plague, it's really dangerous. ”
Kwai Fan'er nodded in agreement, "The plague that makes people gradually lose their minds and fall into madness has indeed never appeared before, if this plague really spreads among the people, and the antidote cannot be developed in time, it will definitely be a hell on earth." ”
"Then we will do our best to develop an antidote to the plague," Kwai Jingyue raised her hand and took out a small jade bottle from her bosom, poured out a purple-red pill, and handed it to the maidservant on the side, "Give it to him." ”
"This is the Muscle-Generating Jade Bone Pill, which should be able to protect his body for the time being, and it will not be destroyed by the plague again. As for consciousness, it is necessary to seal the acupuncture points with silver needles every day to delay the erosion of the plague. Kwai Jingyue was rare to be serious once, he looked at Kwai Fan'er, but the expression in his eyes was a little complicated, "Within ten days, we must develop an antidote, otherwise he will definitely die." ”
“…… Good. Kwai Fan'er frowned, then looked back at the imperial doctor in the room, "The imperial doctors have been treating Your Majesty for a few days, what have you found?" ”
Several imperial physicians looked at each other, and many of them shook their heads, and one of the oldest old imperial physicians stood up, "What the Tai Hospital has gained in the past few days is basically the same as what the two Your Excellencies said, although several antidotes have been developed, the effects are unsatisfactory, and the effect is very small." ”
"Do you know where the guards are now?" Kwai Fan'er really didn't see the figure of the imperial guard Fu Tian, so it was supposed that he should be by the side of the hundred miles to protect his safety, but why was he missing.
"Back to Your Excellency, a few days ago, a plague broke out in many places in the city, and His Majesty personally sent guards to arrange for the treatment of the plague, and he has not yet returned." The old lady replied again.
"That's a bit of a problem......"
"Your Excellency the Demon Doctor, please ask me if you need anything, Fu Tian is back." As soon as Kwai Fan'er's words fell, a familiar voice sounded from the entrance of the Dragon Palace, and she saw Fu Tian stepping into the hall, followed by a woman, who looked very familiar.
"Ahh Kwai Fan'er remembered that she was Le Zhengxuan.
