Chapter 61 Clearing the snake venom and feeding the decoction
After the two men had uncovered the tiles, they took a small cloth bag and poured something into the house, and then left lightly.
If it weren't for Xiao He's vigilance and hearing the sound, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to find out about the actions of these two people, but they came and went freely, and their goals were clear, and they seemed to be aimed at Mu Churan. Whoever it is, it seems to have more ill intentions.
She jumped down lightly, and came back from under the porch, and listened carefully at Mu Churan's door, but there seemed to be no sound inside. But the two of them had poured something into the house just now, but they were a little far away, and she couldn't see it clearly.
She leaned against the door and window again, carefully identifying the sound in the house, but heard Mu Churan screaming "uh". Without caring too much, Xiao He kicked the door in. With a loud bang, she kicked the door open, and through the moonlight outside the house, she couldn't help but feel creepy.
There were more than a dozen snakes in the house, not to mention more than a dozen, wandering all over the ground, and when they saw someone coming, they raised their heads and hissed and vomited poisonous letters in demonstration.
Xiao He was shocked, this time she was afraid that her identity would be discovered when she went out, so she didn't bring the silver needle mechanism, and at this time, a poisonous snake made her a little overwhelmed.
She took a deep breath, lifted the wooden bolt by the door, and danced a set of sticks, even knocking and beating, to carve a way among the snakes.
She walked to the side of the bed and saw a small cyan snake slipping out of Mu Churan's pants. She hurriedly beat the snake to death first, and then jumped on Mu Churan's bed to drive away the snake that continued to swim to the bed.
The sound in the house alarmed the red beads next door, and she also got dressed and came out to see, the poisonous snakes in the room frightened her and screamed, and at the same time she remembered, and quickly went back to find a packet of realgar powder, which is a good medicine for snake repellent insects.
The crowd was also woken up and came out to see. The house full of poisonous snakes has been slain or driven away.
Xiao He saw that Mu Churan's face was pale and he closed his eyes, knowing that he must have been bitten by the snake just now. He then stepped forward and rolled up his trousers, found the wound, and untied his belt and tightened it over the wound to prevent the venom from spreading too quickly.
Then she leaned over Mu Churan's wound and sucked the venom with her mouth, and heard Mu Churan snort. Fortunately, he was still conscious.
Hongzhu saw Xiao He like this on the side, and couldn't help but be a little worried, "Childe, it's better to wait for Doctor Song to come over." "The accompanying imperial doctor's surname is Song, although his medical skills are transcendent, but he is also slightly older, and everyone has already gathered when they heard the sound. This Doctor Song arrived at the door slowly.
Xiao He didn't know why she wanted to save him so impulsively, perhaps, she just wanted him to die in her own hands, borrowing the hands of others, which was too cheap for him.
Although Xiao He had already spit out the sucked venom, Hongzhu still quietly stuffed a Ten Thousand Souls Antidote Pill for her, ready for trouble.
Doctor Song pushed aside the crowd and came to help Mu Churan check it, and then said slowly: "Thanks to Xiao Gongzi's timely handling, what can the biting poisonous snake be?" Xiao He kicked the poisonous snake that was deliberately placed at the foot of the bed, "It's it." ”
Someone picked up the poisonous snake and handed it to him to take a closer look, and after Dr. Song identified it, he nodded and said: "This snake is called Seven Steps, and it is very poisonous, so the old man will go and prescribe an antidote prescription, and immediately fry it and send it over." ”
At the end, Doctor Song also glanced at Xiao He, "Childe will wait here, and let's drink some antidote soup together later." ”
At this time, someone pulled the small path that was supposed to be outside the door for vigil, he had just been woken up, and he had somehow been fainted before, and he was still a little confused. As soon as he heard that someone had released poisonous snakes to harm Mu Churan, he was so frightened that he knelt there and trembled, muttering, "The slave should die, the slave should die." ”
It stands to reason that he should not be blamed for this dereliction of duty, and the people in this room can't be prevented, so how can he blame a little eunuch. Xiao He sat on the side, listening to Xiao Luzi begging for mercy, he was a little annoyed, so he asked Liu Zixin to take him out.
Although Xiao He's official rank is not high, everyone knows that he has a lot of weight in front of Mu Churan, and as soon as he speaks, it will naturally work.
Then Xiao He sent Hongzhu to get medicine from Doctor Song, and as for the others, let them all disperse, and hurry back to rest before dawn. Liu Zixin insisted on standing outside the door to prevent the thief from coming back.
After a while, Hongzhu came back with a lacquered wooden plate and two bowls of medicine. One bowl is for Xiao He, and the other is for Mu Churan.
After Xiao He finished drinking the medicine, he saw that Hongzhu hadn't fed Mu Churan the other bowl yet. Hongzhu frowned slightly and said, "I'm afraid I'll faint again, and this decoction can't be fed." Xiao He thought about it for a while, and he didn't let himself save him once, so he ordered Hongzhu to step down, "I'll take care of him, and you can go and rest early." ”
Hongzhu answered, turned and exited the door, and closed the door behind him.
Xiao He glanced at Mu Churan who was lying on the bed, he was still heroic, but his brows were slightly frowned, as if the residual poison in his body was gnawing. Xiao He picked up the medicine bowl and said in his heart, I must have gone crazy.
She poured the antidote decoction into her mouth, held it in her mouth, leaned down and mouth-to-mouth, drop-by-drop into his mouth.
The first few mouthfuls of feeding were quite difficult, and it seemed that Mu Churan's consciousness had recovered a little, and his lips and teeth were no longer tightly clenched. When she went up again, the feeding was obviously much smoother.
A bowl of medicine was poured into him in such an intimate way.
Xiao He Fu sighed, and he didn't even know whether he was doing right or wrong.
Just as she got up and was about to put the bowl away, the person on the bed reached out and grabbed her wrist. She turned her head to see that he was awake and was staring at her. Suddenly, she couldn't hide her joy, let her sit back on the edge of the bed, and said softly, "How do you feel?" Are there any other injuries on your body? ”
Mu Churan looked at her intently, and after a moment he stretched out his finger and pointed to his lips, "It seems that Fang was also bitten here." ”
"That's my ......" Xiao He explained in a hurry, and half of his words came out, but he saw a hint of joy flashing in his eyes, and his face sank, "It turns out that you have already woken up!" ”
Mu Churan smiled indifferently and said, "Being too smart is your advantage, and sometimes it's too boring." ”
Xiao He got up when he heard this, "Since you have woken up, then I will go back to my own room." She couldn't help but pause again, "Or let Xiaoluzi come and take care of you." ”
Mu Churan was behind her, and said softly seemingly casually: "I just need you to take care of it." ”
Xiao He's body was shocked, and he replied: "Childe's words are unreasonable, I am neither a doctor, nor is it as good as Xiaoluzi who has served Childe for a long time, and I know cold and hot......"
Mu Churan sat up from the bed with her body propped up, and saw that she could say with her conscience that the path knew the cold and the hot, and she couldn't cry or laugh in her heart. Seeing that she was about to escape, he could only use his identity to suppress her and force her to comply, so he said coldly: "I, I want you to take care of me." ”
As soon as he heard this, Xiao He couldn't help but regret it in his heart, regretting that he saved him on impulse, and regretting that he had personally fed him medicine just now. The first thing he did after waking up was to make fun of himself like this, and it was a little hateful.
But he had already spoken, and as soon as the so-called Chrysostom was opened, the king's command could not be disobeyed.
She could only turn around, kneel on the ground, bow her head and respond: "Yes, the minister obeys the order." ”
Xiao He didn't know that at this moment, Mu Churan had already held the idea that she was a daughter, but she hadn't debunked it yet, just because she was still observing. He didn't know why Xiao He was hiding in the middle of the court disguised as a man, and he didn't know whether she was here to harm himself or save himself.
She was a mystery in his mind, and he had never seen it clearly.
But he was not in a hurry to find out the truth, he just wanted to wait and see what she would do.
For example, just now she fed the medicine herself, in fact, halfway through the feeding, Mu Churan had already woken up, but she was a little embarrassed by her cherry mouth, not to mention the antidote, even if it is poison, I am afraid it will be like a glutton.
Mu Churan was forcibly suppressing his breath, so that he didn't show that he was a little provoked and confused. But it was precisely because of the intimate contact with her that he secretly saw that there was no Adam's apple in her throat at all, but a faint shadow was drawn on her throat with some brown color. If you change the angle, you can clearly see that there is no actual bulge.
At that moment, he was overjoyed. It turns out that he is not a broken sleeve, and the person he likes is really a woman.
But in the next moment, he was in a dilemma, if he wanted to expose her identity and find out her details, he must investigate her for the crime of bullying the king, even if he didn't pursue it, the dignified former scholar suddenly changed his daughter's body, and naturally someone would pursue it for him.
Now, he can only press it first, and pretend not to know.
"Come and sit." Mu Churan leaned against the head of the bed, reached out and patted the edge of the bed gently, motioning for her to come forward.
Xiao He frowned slightly, reluctantly paced to the edge of the bed, and sat down awkwardly, as if Mu Churan had asked her not to sit on the bed, but on some needle felt fire pit.
Mu Churan reached out and grabbed her slender fingers like jade onions, for fear that she would run away again.
"Why did you save me?" Mu Churan lowered his head and asked.
Her fingers were slightly cold, and she struggled twice in Mu Churan's wide palm, and was held tighter by him, so she had no choice but to compromise and let him hold it. And this question is also what Xiao He wants to ask herself, why did she save him.
It seemed that the body had acted on its own before she could think about it, although she explained to herself that she was going to leave his life and let her end it herself, but why not.
All she had to do was shout loudly, and someone would come to save him, so why risk her own life?
When Xiao He raised his eyes, he met Mu Churan's gaze, her lips opened slightly, and she muttered, "I'm afraid." ”
This answer was fresh, Mu Churan's eyes softened a little, and asked, "What are you afraid of?" ”
"I'm afraid you'll die." For a while, Xiao He was like a demon, and she actually said what was on her mind, but in fact, it was because there were a few tranquilizers in the antidote prescribed by Dr. Song just now, which made her a little sleepy and weak-willed.
But she only said half of it, but it was meaningful to Mu Churan's ears. The corners of his lips curled, and the smile reflected in Xiao He's eyes was actually a little good-looking.
"Why do you care so much about me?" He wanted to ask further, but saw Xiao He's eyes slightly closed, his eyelashes slowly drooping like a withered butterfly, and his body tilted slightly.
