Chapter 169: Zihan Cibao

Lan Jing'an might as well Xie Weining said such a thing, and couldn't help but want to retreat, but her deep clothes and wide sleeves knocked over the cup, wetting her clothes. She didn't have time to wipe the water-stained clothes, but instead raised her head to look at Xie Weining, revealing a stiff smile: "Don't make fun of me." ”

Xie Weining didn't retreat, still looking at her seriously: "Do you remember the first time we met?" ”

Saying that, he suddenly pulled Lan Jing'an's right hand, Lan Jing'an's right arm was injured, and he couldn't struggle, but he pushed his sleeve up a little, revealing his right wrist. Xie Weining leaned over his left hand again, he put the two scars side by side, and said softly: "Everything is already doomed, this is the fate of you and me." ”

Lan Jing'an's face had already turned into horror, she didn't expect Xie Weining to really move her mind. The things that she couldn't figure out seemed to have answers all at once. In a panic, she forgot to call someone to come in and protect her. She was in a mess and pulled her hand back.

Xie Weining let her see the scars left by each other at the beginning, and then let go, not embarrassed Lan Jing'an. Lan Jing'an hurriedly got up from the mat. Before she could escape the door, Xie Weining was already one step ahead of her and stood in front of her, her shadow in her different-colored eyes.

Xie Weining didn't say much, just looked at Lan Jing'an fixedly. Lan Jing'an suddenly felt an unbelievable sense of absurdity, she would rather believe that this was just a dream of her own.

But Xie Weining's eyes clearly told her that he was not joking today. It's just that no matter why Xie Weining said such a thing, she can't accept him. Lan Jing'an took a deep breath, no longer evaded, looked into Xie Weining's eyes, and said resolutely: "Xia Jiuhuangzi, you and I are absolutely impossible!" ”

Even though Xie Weining guessed that Lan Jing'an might say such a thing, hearing her refusal with his own ears, his heart still couldn't help but hurt. As he bent over in pain, Lan Jing'an also felt a headache, and also covered his heart. Only then did she understand that Xie Weining's love for her might not be just for the benefit of Xia Guo.

Xie Weining saw that Lan Jing'an was so hurt that he fell back to the table, so he had to force his feelings and tell himself that he was in a hurry, but no matter how hard he tried, how could he easily suppress such feelings and pain? Xie Weining turned his head away and no longer glanced at Lan Jing'an. The two were relatively silent, each immersed in pain.

Until the sun went down, Lan Jing'an finally recovered a little. She really didn't want to face Xie Weining anymore now, but as soon as she was able to stand up straight, she got up and left without looking back. Xie Weining was left alone in the dimly lit room.

Lan Jing'an came out of Xie Weining's courtyard and touched the white jade fox on his chest, only to realize what a big mistake he had made. Perhaps, she should not have negotiated with Xie Weining alone in the first place. She sighed, forced herself to stop thinking nonsense, and went to the camp of the Northwest Army.

The camp of the Northwest Army was still stationed in the west of Xiangyang City, and when Lan Jing'an arrived, Jiang Xianlin was instructing other military doctors to dispense medicine. Seeing her coming, everyone hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Lan Jing'an invited Jiang Xianlin to go to Jiang Shaoheng's general's tent together.

The first thing Lan Jing'an did was to inquire about the situation of the epidemic. Jiang Xianlin nodded: "I've seen it, as long as you give everyone medicine, you can stop the diarrhea within two days, and it should be back to normal in five days." It's just that this symptom is not an epidemic, but poisoning. ”

Lan Jingan and Jiang Shaoheng were stunned when they heard this, poisoned? This is not one or two people, how can more than 30,000 troops be poisoned together. Jiang Shaoheng politely took the lead in throwing out the question. Jiang Xianlin stroked his beard: "The only way I can think of to make everyone have a watery diarrhea so quickly is to poison it, and it should be thrown into the water." ”

When Lan Jing'an heard this, he turned his head and asked Jiang Shaoheng: "General Jiang, how did you get water all the way to the army?" Jiang Shaoheng recalled for a moment and replied suspiciously: "After entering Jingzhou, the officials from all over the country have taken the water source to determine it, and we have never taken water from any suspicious water source." ”

Lan Jing'an asked Jiang Xianlin again: "Doctor Jiang, how many hours does it take from drinking sewage to getting sick?" Jiang Xianlin replied: "This poison comes quickly and is highly toxic. It must be no more than two hours after poisoning, and abdominal pain and diarrhea will begin. ”

Hearing this, Lan Jing'an looked up at Jiang Shaoheng: "General Jiang, can you remember where the first person was and when did it start?" Jiang Shaoheng replied: "It's the night of the 20th in Dangyang." ”

Lan Jing'an asked again: "I remember you said that not everyone was infected at the beginning, and it was only on the 21st that everyone in the vicinity of Yicheng showed symptoms, right?" Jiang Shaoheng nodded: "Not bad." ”

Lan Jing'an asked again: "So on the way from Dangyang to Yicheng, can there be water in the middle?" Jiang Shaoheng took the map and personally pointed out the water replenishment locations on their way to Lan Jing'an.

Lan Jing'an groaned. From this point of view, the poisoners did not only poison one water source, but basically poisoned every cadre and army water supply point from Dangyang to Yicheng. She felt that things were not trivial. So he asked Jiang Shaoheng to call a few of his henchmen into the big tent, and sent someone to the general's mansion to summon Lu Min, Bai Qingfeng and others over.

The generals who came in a hurry were surprised to hear that the Northwest Army was not infected with the epidemic but from the poison. The people began to discuss the cause of the poisoning. Jiang Shaoheng was now full of anger, and said hatefully: "If you can do such a thing, you must know our marching route and time, and I am afraid that we have a detailed work inside." ”

Lan Jing'an shook his head: "It's not certain that we have a detailed work within us now. There is also the possibility that the other side does not know your marching route, but waits for you near each water source. ”

Lan Jing'an pointed to the water source on the map and continued: "You see, there are limited water sources along the way. And your water sources are mixed with the people, and it is difficult to tell if someone pretends to be a local and poisons the water under the guise of taking it. But in any case, someone must know the news that you have come to your aid to carry out this poisoning. ”

Bai Qingfeng thought about it carefully and said: "But the great secretary ordered someone to announce the news of reinforcements to the people in the city on the 21st, and it was only then that Dayong could officially know that our reinforcements had come from Baishui Pass. ”

Lan Jing'an thought again: "The Northwest Army was far away from Jingzhou at the beginning, whether it was Wu Daoming or Yuwen Junping, it was impossible for their hands to reach that long, and I think it is unlikely that they would bury nails in the Northwest Army." ”

Lu Min said: "Since it is unlikely to be a problem of the Northwest Army, the news can only flow out from Xiangyang." And before the 21st, the only people who knew the news of reinforcements were the generals in the Xiangyang defenders. Could it be..."

Zhang Xun, who had been silent, suddenly interjected: "That's not necessarily. Do you still remember the time when Da Si Ming and Doctor Jiang were in distress? ”
