Chapter 95: Death's Candy
"It's all my fault."
Tears fell on the bed, two small hands tugged at the sheets tightly, and the little face that drooped was full of remorse. Especially when she saw her sister's pale pretty face, Emily's heart was filled with deep self-blame.
"Emily wasn't wrong." Reaching out and caressing her sister's hair, Leia, who was lying on the bed, said softly, "It's also my fault for being careless." ”
"Emily is really not wrong, if you had found me earlier, there would have been no need to suffer so much." Putting the medical tools into the space ring, Jiang Feng glanced at Leia, who was bedridden, and pointed to the glass bottle resting on the bedside table, "The medicine in it is taken every six hours, and you can take a cap of the bottle each time."
The Kraken uses a variety of weapons, ranging from harpoons taken from fishermen to bones of some large fish...... That is, the longer fish bones.
In order to protect Emily, Leia was cut in the abdomen by a fish bone called the Cashura fish during a close combat with the Kraken.
This fish has an elegant nickname called "Death's Candy". Although its roe is delicious, every inch of flesh and even the bones of the fish are connected to the poisonous sacs hidden deep in the belly of the fish. Poisoned people often have a high fever, and if they are not treated in time, the best outcome is to become vegetative.
Thanks to Captain Monkyrie's collection of books and notes, as well as the alchemy materials stored in the spatial ring, otherwise if you want to cure the poison in Leia, you have to go back to Crocodile Island. And Elia's current physical condition, seasickness and severe colds have exhausted her immunity, and it is a question of whether she can hold on until then.
The powder of the chimera mushroom and the feathers of the flamingos were boiled over low heat for 60 minutes, then the bile of the storm bear was added and continued to boil for another hour, leaving the whole room smelling of herbs. Jiang Feng put the brewed potion into a glass bottle, and after Emily fed Leia to drink, she woke up from her coma after a while.
I don't know if she was woken up by medicine or by stench.
"Don't you say that, sister......" Lowering her head like a child making a mistake, Emily's eyes were red, her little hands pinched the corners of her skirt, and she bowed to Jiang Feng, "Also, thank you." That one...... I'll plant lots of tomatoes to repay you. ”
"Tomato...... This is not necessary, and it is quite nerve-wracking to eat too much food. Looking away from Leia, Jiang Feng looked at Emily, "Your sister needs to rest, if you want her to get better soon, then don't bother her here." ”
"Hmm!"
Emily followed behind Jiang Feng very sensibly, and when she walked out of the door, she gently closed the wooden door. Just as Jiang Feng was about to go back to his room to rest, a weak voice came from behind him, stopping the steps he had just taken.
"The ......"
"Anything else?"
The little hand pressed on the wooden door was put down, and Emily, whose eyes were red, lowered her head and asked in a low voice in a glutinous voice.
"You...... Don't you blame me? ”
"Why should I blame you?" Jiang Feng asked rhetorically.
"Because I didn't listen to you, I didn't stay below deck," said Timidly, Emily, with her head bowed, like a child who had made a mistake, honestly confessing her mistakes, "If it weren't for the fact that I summoned seaweed to entangle that sailboat, there wouldn't be so many people ......"
As she spoke, Emily's voice grew quieter, and her red eyes filled with tears again.
After coming out of the shadow sea, she had been avoiding Jiang Feng, not daring to face him, nor to face those people on the boat. However, mistakes made will not be washed away by evasion. Although no one blamed her, every time she looked through the wooden window of the room, at the sailors and soldiers covered in bandages, her heart was filled with guilt.
She would rather Jiang Feng scold herself at the moment, scolding her for being a useless bad boy, and even beating her hard. Share......
It would make her feel better.
However, Jiang Feng didn't do this.
"Feeling sad?"
With her mouth pursed in frustration, Emily nodded.
Without speaking, Jiang Feng stretched out his hand and gently placed it on her head.
Feeling the light tremor coming from his palm, looking back at the eyes that widened with surprise, Jiang Feng paused for about half a minute and said softly.
If you feel sad, remember the lesson. Next time, before doing something, think more about the consequences of your actions and those around you. ”
With tears on her eyelashes, Emily this time did not pout unhappily because she was being preached, but nodded as if she didn't understand. It could be seen that she had seriously listened to what Jiang Feng said in her heart.
"If you understand, go to bed, and get up early tomorrow."
"Hmm." Emily hummed quietly, but didn't move.
"Anything else?" Jiang Feng asked.
Emily, who was burying her little head, secretly glanced at Jiang Feng, and quickly dodged her gaze to the side.
This time it was not the eyes that were red, but the cheeks.
"That...... Can you touch Emily's hair again? ”
“……”
Satisfying the girl's little wish, looking at Emily's back staggering away, Jiang Feng sighed softly.
Somehow, looking at her back, he remembered the past when he was a child.
The cool sea breeze blew in and blew away the heat on the deck.
Shaking his head, Jiang Feng dispelled the memories that were about to flood his heart, turned around and walked towards the room at the end of the corridor.
……
Horseshoe stone roads, canals are sparsely forested, the highest is the church, and the most is the city gate.
The tide of the wharf rises and falls, the goods are loaded and unloaded, and the hawkers are constantly shouting. At the end of the street, there are exotic entertainers performing their arts, or bards with harps playing and singing epic songs.
Wherever there is a road, it is paved with smooth stone bricks. Wherever people live, the church bells can be heard. Zooming out the camera, the buildings built of stone and bricks are lined up one after another, and the streets are like chessboards.
It is said that it took the people more than 500 years to build the city, and 100 years to build the port alone.
This is the royal capital of the Rick Kingdom, Valland, and the most dazzling pearl on the western side of the Aditya continent.
Standing at the bow of the ship, Jiang Feng glanced at it roughly, the entire Sivit Port was inhabited, and it was probably not as large as a city here. If it weren't for the War of Succession, maybe the prosperity here would have been better than it is now.
But that's just that, by medieval standards, pretty staggering.
"Ahead is Valland Harbor, the royal capital of the Rick Kingdom!" Looking at the port that was getting closer and closer, Captain Kerut's face was full of pride, "It's also the most magnificent city I've ever seen in my life." ”
Jiang Feng smiled and did not speak.
Emily, lying on the side of the ship, stood on tiptoe and excitedly watched the approaching port. Although Yi Ran, who was standing with her arms crossed, had an uninterested expression on her face, the gaze that was glued to the port and couldn't take away her eyes had betrayed the shock and excitement in her heart.
Spewing white mist, the White Seagull slowly sailed into the harbor.
Whether it was the steam that spewed out or the empty deck, it attracted countless curious eyes. But curiosity is curiosity, but no one dares to come close to this side to watch. From sunrise, the palace guards cordoned off the area.
It's all about greeting, the big man on board.
