Chapter 108: Detoxification, Snow Ridge Ice Spirit
The Beidi army was still eyeing the Xieyang Valley thirty miles away, and after the Feiyun Cavalry regained Licheng, they seized the time to rest on the spot to prevent the Beidi army from raiding.
And the 50,000 imperial soldiers and horses brought by Yao Wentao, Shen Qianmo still asked them to be stationed at Jinyang Pass with Cao Xun on standby.
Of course, she also asked Yun Fei to send the shadow guard of Woyun Mountain Villa to spy on her.
She intuitively didn't trust Yao Wentao. And her instincts have always been accurate.
As Cao Xun said, under the poison of war, the people of Licheng really have very little left, and most of them are old and weak, women and children.
Now seeing that Feiyun rode away the murderous and inhumane Beidi people overnight, he was naturally overjoyed, and walked out of the house one after another, welcoming Feiyun Rider.
Walking on the street and seeing the smiling faces of those old people and children, Shen Qianmo felt that her decision to attack the city at that time was so worthwhile.
For the sake of these people who are struggling to survive in the flames of war, but still have not given up hope to stay alive, even if they take greater risks, so what?
"Sister, are you the one who drove away the big bad guys in Beidi?"
Shen Qianmo felt that the corners of her clothes were being pulled, and a timid child's voice came from behind her.
When she turned around, she saw a teenage boy, his coarse cloth shirt was full of patches, but his facial features were very delicate, and he was shining with a pair of big fawn-like eyes, looking at her with curiosity.
Seeing this, the shadow guard who was protecting her moved her body, and wanted to step forward and pull the unknown child away.
The owner of the village has instructed that Princess Xuan must not be separated from each other and not let any strangers and suspicious people approach her.
Shen Qianmo stopped the shadow guard's movements.
The eyes are clear, there is no scheming, just an innocent little boy, there will be no danger.
Seeing such a look, it reminded her of the fourth prince Meng Tianxuan for no reason.
I don't know what happened to the innocent Four Princes now?
Suddenly, she felt that her originally heavy mood was much lighter, and she smiled and asked the little boy, "Little friend, what is your name?" ”
"My name is Iron Head. Sister, Feiyun riding is so good, I want to join Feiyun riding when I grow up, is it okay? ”
When the word Feiyun Qi was mentioned, the iron head's eyes lit up with a look of adoration.
"Absolutely." Shen Qianmo smiled and said, "But it's not an easy thing to join Feiyun Ride, first you have to practice your skills, you know?" ”
Tietou nodded firmly, patted his chest and promised: "Tietou will definitely work hard to learn his skills." When I grow up, I must become a Feiyun rider and ...... those big villains in Beidi."
How can we relieve our anger? Tietou scratched his head, thought for a while, and then squeezed his little fist and said hatefully: "Kill all those big villains in Beidi!" ”
Speaking of which, the iron head's originally bright eyes were full of hatred.
Shen Qianmo frowned slightly. This child seems to have an infinite hatred hidden in his heart.
She patted him on the head and said gently, "Okay, my sister is waiting for that day." ”
Tietou was attracted by Shen Qianmo's kind appearance, and a dirty little black hand firmly grasped the corner of her clothes, refusing to let go.
A man of about fifty years of age, with a gray beard and a slender build, ran up quickly.
The man hurriedly pulled away Tietou's hand and shouted in a low voice: "Tietou, don't be rude." ”
Then he turned to Shen Qianmo and saluted respectfully: "The child is not sensible, he bumped into Princess Xuan, and asked Princess Xuan not to be surprised." ”
"No need to be polite." Shen Qianmo gave a hand and said sincerely: "Tietou is a good boy with great ambition. ”
When the man heard this, he said with a sad face: "This child is a hard-working person. His father was the defender of Licheng, and he was killed on the spot when the Beidi army broke through Licheng, and his mother and younger brother were brutally killed by the Beidi people two days ago, and they were left dead without a body, and the whole family is now left alone, alas......"
I see! No wonder this kid has such a deep hatred for Beidi.
Shen Qianmo looked at the stubborn boy whose eyes were red because he mentioned his parents and family, but he was holding back his tears, and felt a little throbbing in his heart.
She is also an orphan. The current appearance of the iron head reminded her of herself in her previous life.
That year, she was only ten years old, and her parents were both killed in an accident, and she had to be taken into an orphanage without relatives. On that cold morning, she stood in the empty courtyard of the orphanage for the first time, and it seemed that she was also lonely and stubborn.
Shen Qianmo lowered her body and asked him softly, "Tietou, do you want to see the war horse ridden by Feiyun?" ”
"Of course." The iron head nodded again and again, with a look of excitement.
"Then let's go with my sister." Shen Qianmo took Tietou's hand and led him to Feiyunqi's war horse camp.
For a cavalry, the war horse is the most important piece of equipment. The reason why Feiyun Cavalry can be invincible in the battle against Beidi is that the role of the war horse is very important.
Feiyun Riding War Horse Battalion, thousands of war horses are gathering together to train in formation.
The four hooves are churning, the long mane is flying, the posture is majestic, and the queue is neat, what a magnificent posture and galloping power this is.
The iron head watched from afar, his small mouth was open and couldn't be closed, and his face was full of envy.
In order to let him get closer to the war horse, Shen Qianmo took him to the stable to visit.
Looking at the neat rows of war horses in the stables, the iron head cheered and excited. He stretched out his hand curiously, gently touching these majestic war horses, and his heart was full of pride.
Every teenager has a heroic dream in his heart.
Iron Head secretly decided that when he grew up, he must make himself strong and ride a proud and majestic horse like this to fight the enemy on the battlefield.
But just when he was full of pride and fighting spirit, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
The pain was so sudden and so intense that the iron-headed's delicate facial features were instantly twisted together, and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he clutched his stomach and fell down.
Shen Qianmo was taken aback, hurriedly stepped forward to hug Tietou's body that was about to fall, and asked urgently, "Tietou, what's wrong with you?" ”
The iron head curled up and shouted to Shen Qianmo in pain: "Sister, it hurts, my stomach ...... It hurts. ”
Seeing this, Lu Zhu behind him also exclaimed: "Miss, what's wrong with Tietou?" ”
His face was pale and his lips were purple, as if he was a symptom of poisoning.
However, how can a good person be poisoned?
"Tietou, don't be afraid, my sister is here, it'll be fine."
Shen Qianmo forced herself to stay calm, comforting Tietou while ordering the shadow guard to carry Tietou to her room.
She is only a forensic doctor, although her medical skills have improved these days, but that is only in superficial aspects such as trauma treatment, and detoxification is not her strong point.
If only Situ Gong were here.
Suddenly, she remembered that before leaving, Situ Gong had handed her a bottle of antidote pill.
Although this detoxification pill cannot cure all kinds of poisons, it can at least temporarily alleviate the spread of poison.
She hurriedly instructed Luzhu to bring the antidote pill from the medicine box and feed the iron head to take it.
At this time, the shadow guard who went out to find the doctor also hurried back. The doctor he brought was the tall and thin man who had complained about Tietou just now.
The man's name is Lin Kaiquan, he is a You Fang Langzhong, and he is also the only doctor in Licheng.
Lin Kaiquan was obviously also anxious, and after arriving, he hurriedly saluted Shen Qianmo, and hurriedly treated the iron head.
After some looking, hearing and asking, Lin Kaiquan's brows became tighter and tighter, and his face became more and more heavy.
"This poison ...... It's a broken bowel! ”
Broken intestines, as the name suggests, are the symptoms of poisoned people are unbearable abdominal pain, and after 12 hours, they will die of intestinal rot.
is just a fatherless, motherless, lonely and helpless child, who gave him such a vicious poison?
Could it be that this matter has something to do with Heliancheng's conspiracy?
But now Shen Qianmo has no time to investigate the details, Tietou, a stubborn and distressing child, she can't let him have anything to do.
She suddenly remembered that Old Man Duan's medical book had stated that on the top of the snow-capped mountain, there was a kind of ice spirit grass that could cure all kinds of poisons.
When Lin Kaiquan heard this, he said happily: "There is a snow ridge thirty miles away from Jinyang Pass, and there is ice grass growing on the top of the snow ridge. ”
They had only twelve hours. Without delay, Shen Qianmo and Yun Fei took the two shadow guards and Lin Kaiquan to gallop all the way to the Snow Ridge.
The terrain on the snow ridge is complex, and the ice spirit grass is extremely difficult to find, Lin Kaiquan once went to the snow ridge to find it once when he was young, and he volunteered to lead the way on this trip.
And the reason why Shen Qianmo accompanied her was because the ice spirit grass was a yin thing, and it had to be picked by a woman. As soon as the man touched it, it instantly turned into a puddle of icy water.
Back then, Lin Kaiquan insisted on picking it himself because he didn't believe in evil, but he missed the ice spirit grass and wasted the trip to Xueling.
Although Shen Qianmo felt that this statement was a bit too fantastical, in order to detoxify the iron head, she decided to believe it.
And there are only two women in Jinyang Pass, she and Luzhu. Luzhu can't ride a horse, so naturally she can only go out on horseback.
This time, Shen Qianmo finally had the opportunity to experience the feeling of galloping on a horse. But on this trip, she was anxious and was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery of Biansai.
Yun Fei didn't expect that Shen Qianmo, who seemed to be gentle and weak, would have such superb riding skills.
This Princess Xuan always has the ability to surprise and surprise.
A group of five people ran non-stop, all the way, and arrived at the foot of the snow ridge before noon.
Snow Ridge, located thirty miles north of Jinyang Pass, as the name suggests, is icy and snowy, and inaccessible.
And the ice grass grows on the highest peak of the Snow Ridge - Qianzhang Peak.
Qianzhang Peak is more than 3,000 meters above sea level, if you rely on Shen Qianmo's footsteps to climb up, it is estimated that you will not be able to reach the peak after dark.
But fortunately, there were Yun Fei and the masters of the shadow guard, they took Shen Qianmo and Lin Kaiquan, who also didn't know martial arts, to perform light skills along the road and go directly to the peak.
Carried up quickly by Yun Fei all the way, Shen Qianmo enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the Snow Ridge, and suddenly felt like taking a cable car to watch the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.
The secret realm of the snowy fairy mountain is long, and no one steps on the fog.
On the snow ridge, the jade piles up, the top of the mountain lies horizontally, towering and strange, straight into the sky.
The peak of thousands of zhang, the wind is cold, and the strange peaks are magnificent. Apart from the snow and the odd convex rocks, there is no other life.
The sky at the summit is blue and calm, and the snow on the mountain shines brightly in the sunlight.
Stepping on the thick snow, Lin Kaiquan relied on his memory and led them into a whirling cave in the mountain col.
Walking into the cave, I feel suddenly enlightened.
The transparent and crystalline icicles are like a sharp sword, hanging high and low. The walls of the cave are ice-clear, smooth and clear, with occasional rays of sunlight projecting in, reflecting a cold light.
Between these icicles and ice walls, a few small green plants break the ice and grow, showing their vigorous and tenacious vitality.
This is Ice Grass!
Shen Qianmo breathed a sigh of relief. Successfully found the Ice Spirit Grass, and it was finally worth the trip.
It seems that the iron head is saved.
With the help of Yun Fei's light skills, she jumped up, took off the Ice Spirit Grass steadily, and put it in the white jade box she carried with her.
Ice Grass will wither and cannot survive without ice. Although there were enough ice cubes in the white jade box, they still needed to return as soon as possible to be sure.
Shen Qianmo put away the white jade box and took the lead towards the entrance of the cave. Before he reached the entrance of the cave, he heard a sharp cry from behind him: "Qianmo, be careful!" ”
Shen Qianmo had never heard Yun Fei's panicked shout. She subconsciously turned around, and the scene in front of her surprised her.
The two shadow guards had fallen to the ground without a sound.
And Yun Fei, with a long sword in his hand, pointed at Lin Kaiquan, glared angrily, and asked sharply: "Who are you, why are you doing this?" ”
