31. Poisoned
It's all because of myself, if I don't have to come out, or I don't have to play dragon dance...... How could the prince become like this?
Today's Kang Lingqi was full of guilt, and he didn't hear what Zhuang Wanqin said at the end. Just standing there, overwhelmed and isolated.
And at this moment, I saw a man dressed in black appear in the distance, and he swept towards this side in three steps and two steps.
Okay, you still dare to come over, it's still a bright attack. Are we really when there is no one here?
"Give me the prince quickly."
The person who came saw that Zhuang Wanqin's situation was becoming more and more anxious, and the tone in his mouth was not good.
"Dreaming."
Kang Lingqi couldn't help but attack the other party. It was supposed to be a short sword aimed at the heart, but when the man was about to dodge, it turned around and attacked the man's lower limbs.
Obviously, the people who came did not expect Kang Lingqi's swordsmanship to be so superb. One dodged narrowly to dodge, but was still stabbed.
The black pants didn't look like a big deal from the outside, but the man knew that his movement was already restricted.
"Why can't the prince think so much about finding someone like you as an entourage? It's okay now, you hurt me like this, who will take the prince back? ”
Originally, as a dark guard, he was silent, but he was a counter-sample, and the rest of the dark guards didn't say as much as he alone.
And this man is the most active. When the first time they saw Zhuang Wanqin appear with Xu Ruqing in his arms, the other few people just stopped their shock on their facial expressions, and only he jumped up directly. If Zhuang Wanqin hadn't ordered them not to show up in advance, it is estimated that he would have jumped in front of Zhuang Wanqin to gossip.
Actually, this is normal. After all, before he became Zhuang Wanqin's secret guard, he was just a thief who lived by helping people steal things and find out news.
It was only because of a chance that she stole from the prince and was discovered by her.
Not only did she not want his life, but she was also willing to give him a legitimate job, so that he didn't have to worry about it every day and didn't have enough to eat.
Although it is said that it is now begging for a living on the tip of the knife, at least, the daily meal is settled.
Therefore, the prince must not have anything to do!
Kang Lingqi finally sensed that something was wrong after listening to the dark guard's words. Is this person his own?
It's just that the heart of guarding against others is indispensable. This is what the prince taught himself, this person came halfway, his identity is unknown, and he can't believe it.
"If you're one of your own, don't get in my way. If not, don't blame me for being unkind. ”
After speaking, Kang Lingqi rushed directly in the direction of the inn. The situation of the prince must be said after going back first, maybe Xu Gongzi will have a way.
The secret guard watched Kang Lingqi go away, and thought sullenly in his heart, it is better to find a time to talk to the prince and let them meet.
Otherwise, it would be too wrong to do this every time.
Before he entered the room of the inn, he heard Xu Ruqing say, "Miss Kang, bring the prince in." ”
Hearing this, Kang Lingqi was stunned.
How did Xu Gongzi know?
However, thinking that Zhuang Wanqin was still in a coma, Kang Lingqi immediately put this matter behind him and hurriedly took Zhuang Wanqin in and put him on the bed.
That is, Xu Ruqing's side.
In the past few days, they have been getting along day and night, and they have long been immune to Zhuang Wanqin and Xu Ruqing leaning together.
After all, one is the wounded.
The other is to take care of the disabled.
It's just that it's the other way around today.
"Master Xu, let's see what's wrong with the prince. Could it be that there is some powerful poison on that arrow? ”
Zhuang Wanqin's face had now returned to normal, and if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Kang Lingqi would have wondered if she was just asleep.
With such a peaceful face, in this world, I am afraid that only that kind of poison can do it.
Nian Nujiao.
This poison is extracted from the venom of the white-browed snake, which causes the blood to clot.
Someone once mixed this poison with blood, and soon the blood turned into a tofu lump.
On top of that, snake venom is not easy to solve. This Nian Nujiao also added other toxins to it, so that the blood did not coagulate so quickly, but the difficulty of detoxification increased more than ten times.
It can be said that now, unless there is a ready-made antidote, Zhuang Wanqin cannot be saved at all.
It took too long to make the antidote, and there are no materials for it today.
"Do you know, where in your Nan Kingdom there is an antidote to Nian Nujiao?"
"Huh?"
Kang Lingqi was asked suddenly, and he was a little stunned for a while.
"I said, if you can't find the antidote to Nian Nujiao, I'm afraid that the prince's life will not be guaranteed."
This time, Kang Lingqi listened to it really.
Even the secret guards who had just rushed back listened to them word for word.
Nian Nujiao? He remembered that the prince's master Xuanyi seemed to have such a thing, and he specially told them to be careful of this poison.
So, does it mean that she also has the antidote to this poison?
The secret guard took a step forward, saluted Xu Ruqing and said, "As far as his subordinates know, the prince's master has this poison, and if he wants to come to the antidote, he should also store it. I'll go and call the other guards back first, and then I'll go to Kyoto and ask for medicine from Lord Xuanyi. ”
It's a good idea, but time is of the essence, can this person get back in three days?
It's not that Xu Ruqing doesn't trust Zhuang Wanqin's people, it's just that such a major matter is related to Zhuang Wanqin's life and cannot be ambiguous.
The secret guard who came back after sending the signal seemed to see Xu Ruqing's scruples, and said with a confident smile:
"Xu Gongzi doesn't have to worry, his subordinates will definitely be able to complete the task and ensure the safety of the prince."
"Where do you get your confidence? You know, this is not a trivial matter, and there is no room for error. ”
Although Kang Lingqi was very happy to see hope, she doubted that this person would be able to handle this task because he did not have his own high martial arts.
I saw that the dark guard lowered his head and smiled, and the words that came out of his mouth really relieved everyone.
"The subordinates are not talented, and they were well-known in the rivers and lakes before following the prince, and they are called ghosts."
"You're the thief who made my dad eat and sleep badly all day, and then caused trouble to me?"
Hearing these words suddenly, Kang Lingqi's eyes immediately widened.
I think she has been angry with her father many times, all because of the person in front of her.
committed crimes again and again, but the government could not find a trace. The prime minister didn't know how much hair he lost for him.
Although this person's martial arts skills are not high, the speed of his escape is first-class, and there is no trace at all.
At that time, I couldn't wait to break the thief called the ghost into pieces. Unexpectedly, Jiantian actually met in this way.
And although Xu Ruqing is a Zhuhua Chinese, he still has a little hearing of the name of the ghost.
If it was really him, the prince's poison would have been saved.
"Well, now is not the time to talk about that. You go and come back quickly, everything is up to you. ”
"Yes."
Suddenly, the ghost felt a great responsibility on his body, looked at the trusting gaze of the two in front of him, and then looked at the benefactor who was unconscious on the bed. bowed, and suddenly disappeared.
After a long time, Xu Ruqing came back to his senses.
Looking at the sleeping face lying beside him, his heart was full of emotion.
Such capable people are willing to serve you, and Grandpa Qin should not be an obstacle to you soon.
You could have soared in the sky, so why cling to the mountains?
