In the end, Lu Guizhou fainted due to physical exhaustion, and Liu Zhutou made a temporary stretcher for the officials to carry Lu Guizhou. In this way, they can rush back to the palace before the sun goes down, and who knows what unexpected things will happen in the night in the mountains.

Along the way, Shen Muxi didn't speak, just looked back from time to time.

"Doctor Shen, how did you fall? That cave ......" Liu Zhutou couldn't help it, walked up to Shen Muxi's side and asked in a low voice.

Coming back to his senses, Shen Muxi glanced at the injury in the tiger's mouth, and instead of answering Liu Zhutou's words directly, he asked, "Then how did you find it?" ”

"There's a masked messenger who came here, and we didn't expect you to be in the cave." Liu Zhutou thought for a while, "No, we heard the movement and came to look for it, it was where you were standing at the time, the ground was very solid, and we didn't see any entrance to the grotto." ”

Shen Muxi was stunned, didn't speak for a long time, and stared thoughtfully at Lu Guizhou in a coma.

"Doctor Shen, who is that person wearing a mask?" Liu Zhutou asked.

Shen Muxi shook his head, "It's probably a passing knight, unknown and unknown." ”

In retrospect, I was really rude and forgot to ask Eun Gong's name. At that time, the fire was dazzling, and she seemed to see the red mark on the back of the man's hand, but unfortunately she couldn't see it too clearly.

"What's in the cave?" Liu Zhutou asked.

Shen Muxi shook his head, "It's all rocky, eerie, and terrifying!" ”

Liu Zhutou smiled, "There are some grottoes in this area, and the older generation can't tell where these grottoes come from. As the years go by, the entrance to the cave is overgrown with grass, and it will be difficult to find the entrance again! ”

"It's better to go into these gloomy places less." Shen Muxi remembered the scene he saw when he ran out of the secret room.

A miserable white skeleton, I can't tell whether it is a man or a woman, and I should have died sitting behind the door. As for why he died, it is unknown, probably he also strayed into the secret room, but when he wanted to escape, he found that the stone door had been closed, so he died inside.

Now that I think about it, if they hadn't run in time, it is estimated that they would have been locked in the secret room, and finally died in it and turned into white bones. That place was too weird and terrifying, and Shen Muxi didn't want anyone to follow in his footsteps.

It's not a good thing to be dusty.

Liu Zhutou was an informed and knowledgeable person, and he could see that Shen Muxi didn't want to say it, so he told his subordinates that this matter was not allowed to be publicized to the outside world, and it was an accident.

Fortunately, the extermination of the snake den went quite smoothly, and when I returned to the palace, it was already dark.

As soon as he entered the door, Shen Muxi found that there was an exquisite carriage in the courtyard of the mansion.

"Mother!" Shen Zhi was waiting in the courtyard, and when he saw Shen Muxi, he pounced.

"Doctor Shen, are you alright?" Chunxiu breathed a sigh of relief, and then her eyes widened again, "Doctor Shen, what's wrong with your hand?" There is also a blood mark on the neck. Did you fall? ”

Shen Muxi smiled, "It's okay. ”

"Uncle Lu?" Shen Zhi frowned, looked at Lu Guizhou, who was lying on the stretcher with his eyes closed, and immediately grabbed his mother's sleeve, "Mother, what's wrong with Uncle Lu?" ”

Chunxiu was surprised, "Why did this kid come back with you?" ”

"It's a long story, go in first." Shen Muxi said, and when she left, she glanced back at the carriage parked in the yard, she was very sure that this was not Lu Guizhou's carriage, could it be that someone from the Eastern Capital had come again?

prescribed medicine to Lu Guizhou, and the official went to take it to the inn and handed it to Lu Guizhou's servant.

After making sure that Lu Guizhou was fine, Shen Muxi turned back to his room.

Closing the door, Chunxiu hurriedly grabbed Shen Muxi, "Doctor Shen, I'll take a look at your injuries!" ”

"It's okay to fall down." Shen Muxi prevaricated casually, got up and walked to the dressing mirror, the wound on his neck was not deep, it should have been scratched by a branch when he fell. The injuries on his neck and hands were all injured before he fell, Lu Guizhou fell like that, why wasn't he injured?

Chunxiu and Shen Zhi looked at each other, I don't know why, I always felt that Shen Muxi came back this time, a little wrong, and seemed to like to be in a daze.

"By the way, is there anyone coming?" Shen Muxi came back to his senses, "The carriage in the courtyard ......"

Hearing this, Chunxiu sneered twice, "Besides, it's another troublemaker!" ”

Shen Muxi frowned and looked at the two, "From the Eastern Capital?" ”

Shen Zhi looked at her fixedly and nodded heavily.

Outside the door, a hurried knock suddenly sounded, "Doctor Shen!" ”
