There was silence in the carriage, and no one dared to speak first, for fear that Master Dingyuan would make a desperate judgment. Even Gu Changming, who had always been calm, clenched his hands, and a layer of sweat appeared in his palms.

"Where did the dirt on her come from?" Master Dingyuan pondered it for a while, and it was difficult to describe the situation on the little phoenix in common words, so he could only squeeze out three words of dirty things, "How long has it been?" ”

The little phoenix didn't have to be embarrassed by others, and replied by herself: "Four days ago, I was bitten. ”

"Where's the wound?" Master Dingyuan's eyes were like torches, and he grabbed the arm of the little phoenix and rolled up his sleeves. The tooth marks were still there, still bruised, and she looked at them carefully for a while, "Who else has helped you treat the wound, but it hasn't spread until now?" ”

"A physician surnamed Shi. He gave me three pills and said that he would save his life for six days, and that he hoped to find an antidote. The little phoenix replied freely, although Dingyuan Shitai's hand was strong and his face was solemn, but there was an indissoluble compassion between his eyebrows, "Shitai, just let it be." ”

"Shi Ziyou? Is the imperial doctor who gave you the pill called Shi Ziyou? Mrs. Dingyuan helped her slowly pull down her sleeves and cover her forearms.

"I don't know much about that." The little phoenix didn't ask the imperial doctor's name at all, and looked at Gu Changming for help. Gu Changming didn't ask at that time, he glanced at her, and the little phoenix immediately understood, "It's a man in his forties, with a Chinese face, a long body, and a small mole on the right eyebrow." ”

Liu Zhuxue was stunned by the side, she had also seen that Imperial Doctor Shi, she only remembered that she was quite tall, and she couldn't remember anything else, how the little phoenix's memory was the same as Gu Changming's, she never forgot the people she had seen, and she could remember particularly distinctive features.

Master Dingyuan lowered his head and sighed, "Sure enough, it's him." ”

"Master, do you know that Imperial Physician?" When Liu Zhuxue heard Master's tone, it was completely like the old days. She also thought that the master was pure-hearted and had few desires, and he treated all men in the world equally in his eyes.

"He was supposed to be my senior brother, your uncle." Master Dingyuan looked at Liu Zhuxue's wide open mouth and smiled bitterly, "What do you think, it's not the senior brother of the Emei faction, but my master who studies medicine." Twenty years ago, because of a disagreement with the master, he was expelled from the master's school, and he has not been heard from again. I didn't expect to enter the palace and become a doctor. ”

"Master, so the pill he used is in the same vein as your master, and the little phoenix is saved?" Liu Zhuxue's eyes were shining, and as soon as she grabbed the hand of the little phoenix next to her, she found that the little phoenix with a calm demeanor had cold and cold hands, without a trace of warmth.

"It can't be saved." Master Dingyuan shook his head and said, "What Shi Ziyou can't save, I can't save either." However, I stayed in the master's sect for a few years longer than him, and learned more of the master's housekeeping skills, so the six days he said could still be relieved. ”

"Mrs. Shi can hold her off for a few days at most?" Gu Changming said in a deep voice, "What medicinal materials does Mrs. Shi need, what rare medicines do you need, I will definitely try my best to find them." I just ask the teacher to continue her life. ”

"Changming Gongzi also said that he had extended his life, and if he took the opportunity to cut off her poisoned arm, although it would not be convenient in the future, it would be better than a thin life." Master Dingyuan saw the burning eyes of the surroundings, "She should have a day of buffer period, don't worry, let me think about it carefully, if I can delay it for a while longer, her chances of being saved will be greater." ”

"Master, what exactly is on the little phoenix?" Liu Zhuxue's heart was disturbed by Master's words, and there were ups and downs, "It was a very young child who bit her." ”

"What about the kid?" After Master Dingyuan finished speaking, he already knew the answer, "The bite is so poisonous, presumably the host is dead." It's not poison, it's not a disease, it's a bad thing that someone deliberately made. As for what it is, I can't say. ”

"Shitai has seen it before?" Although Gu Changming didn't get too clear assurances from Master Dingyuan, there was always an extra layer of expectation between the lines, "This shouldn't be something from the Central Plains." ”

"Changming Gongzi, this is really something from the Central Plains." Master Dingyuan pushed the window of the carriage open to let in the fresh air outside, and did not say a word again on the rest of the way.

When they arrived at Gu's mansion, the carriage stopped steadily, and Master Dingyuan told Gu Changming to stay, and the others went back to the house to rest for the time being.

The little phoenix should have insisted on staying, but instead grabbed Liu Zhuxue and left first, remembering that he gave Master Yuan a big gift.

Mrs. Dingyuan looked at the back of the little phoenix and Liu Zhuxue holding hands: "This child's origin is not simple, and it is rare to be able to get along with Zhuxue so well." ”

"Miss Liu's family has suddenly undergone a great change, and Little Phoenix happens to have witnessed the whole process, and the two can talk about it." Gu Changming never thought that Liu Zhuxue would become friends with the little phoenix before, and instead of despising the little female thief, the daughter of the girl showed her heart and gradually became a close friend.

"Little Phoenix, this name is interesting and has a good personality. Generally, a young woman of this age knows that her time is short, so she is not crying and shouting, but also afraid of life and death. She is still down-to-earth and generous, neither humble nor arrogant. Master Dingyuan looked back at Gu Changming again, "Prince Changming has ever seen a dog eat a dog?" ”

Gu Changming knew that Master Dingyuan suddenly came to such a sentence, which must have a deep meaning: "Naturally, I have seen it, some fight in groups, and some fight for turf." ”

"There is a kind of dog with red eyes, afraid of seeing water and light, subconsciously biting and gnawing when encountering the same kind, and never dying. Have you seen it too? When Mrs. Dingyuan talked about such a bloody picture, her voice was still calm, "I once saw a majestic male dog in an area where the plague broke out, and it was like this, biting and gnawing all the way, and there were corpses of the same kind everywhere, and in the end, it used all its strength and bled to death. At the time, I suspected that it was the source of the plague, but the government suddenly sent a large army to pour tung oil on the plague-infested area, and burned it to the ground along with the countless corpses that died in the plague. ”

"Mrs. Liu, Miss Liu's family has suffered a great change, that is, someone has symptoms like the male dog that Mrs. Fang Cai said, and in half an hour, dozens of people in the Liu Mansion were bitten and died of excessive blood loss, and the only surviving Lord Liu Zhiyuan Liu was killed by a mysterious person, and the murderer has not been caught so far." Gu Changming didn't care what version Dingyuan Master had heard before, he just wanted to tell the truth he had seen with his own eyes.

Dingyuan Shi came all the way to Kaifeng Mansion for no reason, I am afraid that most of the time spent on the road was too long for the change of Liu Zhuxue, so he did not catch up with the most difficult time of Liu Zhuxue.

"That's a high level of human rights, so the news hasn't been revealed at all." Master Dingyuan didn't have the slightest doubt about Gu Changming's words, "And after the Liu family changed, the one who suffered the most and was hurt the most was Zhu Xue. I received the news, for fear that this child has a delicate personality and can't think of a big event, so he came over in a hurry and was still a step late. Fortunately, she was never alone, and I didn't expect that she would be able to make a lot of friends, and she was also a friend like Changming Gongzi. ”

Gu Changming didn't tell Liu Zhuxue about the almost collapse and said that he was going to become a monk. If you can, these should be kept for later, and it would be more appropriate for Liu Zhuxue to tell Dingyuan Shitai in person.

The most important thing in front of us is to find out the source of the little phoenix and ensure that there is no need to worry about life. Gu Changming thought of Dingyuan Shitai's previous words: "Shitai, I'm assuming that I can't find the most suitable antidote, and it's not too late to cut off her arm now?" ”

Master Dingyuan shook his head very firmly and said, "It can only be at that time, after nearly five days, it must be too late." It was because Shi Ziyou gave her another three pills, so that she would not die for the time being, and the toxins were all over her body, and when the sixth day came, I am afraid that she would become the same as the person you said, bloodthirsty and murderous, the six relatives did not recognize, and even you and I no longer knew each other. ”

"What Imperial Physician Shi means is that after six days, her life will not be guaranteed." Gu Changming's words stopped suddenly, and Imperial Physician Shi's words were very clever, now that he thinks about it, how could it not be that after six days, the little phoenix will lose all his mind, and even keep killing. At that time, in order to prevent him from making a big mistake, he would inevitably cut off his life in time, but at that time, the benevolent doctor couldn't bear to say it so directly.

"You've thought of it all." Master Dingyuan lowered his eyes and thought for a while, "There is still one day, let me think about it again, some results can only move forward and are irreversible, and you can't spoil her vitality because of a momentary impatience." ”

"Mrs. Shi, please try your best to save her, she is here to save people to become like this. If the rescuer will die a tragic death instead of blessings, what is the way of heaven? Gu Changming understood that Master Dingyuan needed time and a quiet environment, so he personally sent people to settle in the small courtyard, and instructed the people in the house to prepare other food, and not to neglect the guests.

After these busyness, Gu Changming was uneasy, and suddenly had the idea of breaking into his father's study. But the family discipline he had received since he was a child was too ingrained, and he spent a lot of effort to barely hold his feet, stay in the corner of the courtyard, and take a deep breath.

"I never thought you'd do so much for me." The little phoenix walked out slowly from the shadow of a corner of the corridor, her face became more and more pale, her lips were bright red, and her eyes looked at Gu Changming without hiding her love, "I never thought that compared to you, I was a mud that was not worth the sun, and with you treating me like this, there was no antidote, and I would die without regrets." ”

Gu Changming's lips trembled unexpectedly, and he didn't say anything.

The little phoenix's eyes were covered with a layer of starlight, which was exceptionally bright and bright, looking up at Gu Changming's handsome face, the undulating lines of the peaks and peaks, and his eyes were reluctant to blink more, as if he couldn't see enough no matter how he looked. Suddenly, as if she was being pulled by some spell, she slowly raised a hand, and her slender and dexterous fingers groped the corners of Gu Changming's mouth, greedy for the warmth there, and the unexpected softness.

Suddenly, a smile bloomed vividly, and the little phoenix withdrew her fingers, looked down in a daze: "With these, I am already satisfied." ”
