Chapter Twenty-Nine: Boiling the Antidote
Xiao Luo shrugged his shoulders, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said:
His Royal Highness also knows that although Xiao has nothing to do on weekdays, he also needs to accompany the king or the girl in the clan to discuss the secrets of illusion. His Royal Highness asked Xiao to do this and that, but it can be seen that there is no sincerity in apprenticing to the teacher, in my opinion, it is still ......"
"Dinner! Just dinner! Mu Changfeng saw that Xiao Luo wanted to regret it, so he jumped to his feet in a hurry, "Being an apprentice also needs freedom!" If you call it, you might as well be a wild cat...... Just one meal, it shouldn't be difficult for you, right? Really, I'll study hard! Seeing that his eyes were wet, bright and firm, Xiao Luo was stunned and relieved for the first time:
"Okay, deal."
......
Shenzhou Continent.
Qi State.
"Your Majesty, the third prince is back!" Wei Chiyi, who was discussing with everyone in the hall, suddenly raised his head when he heard this.
Below, the ministers of the DPRK and the central government, who were on both sides of the throne, heard the news, and their faces were filled with joy, as if they were a hundred times happier than if they had been promoted. In this palace, no one knows that the third prince is the object of today's holy power, and sometimes even the crown prince can't be compared! At this time, they all seized the opportunity to praise the Third Highness, wanting to win a little favor from the emperor and make their future career smoother.
Although Wei Chiyi knew that seven points of emotion in the minister's words were false, he couldn't care about it, and a rare smile appeared on his face, and he announced:
"This matter will be discussed later, so let's do it today, disperse the dynasty." Before the minister finished saluting, he stepped down from the Luan seat first, and while striding towards the outside of the hall impatiently, he asked, "Gonggong Cao, you tell me, where is Xuan'er?" ”
"As soon as I entered the city, I went to the residence of King De." King De is the residence of the third prince Wei Chi Xuan's younger brother Yu Chi Che. He was indifferent by nature, he didn't like power and strategy, and he was crowned last year, but due to poisoning, he fell into an accidental coma, and the emperor only gave him a mansion and a reward, and did not hold a ceremony.
"Pass the order down and set up the Dewang Mansion."
"Yes."
......
As soon as the guards of King De's Mansion opened the door, a white shadow rushed into the mansion. He rubbed his eyes, thinking that he was dazzled, and heard Gu Ying, the personal guard of the third prince, jump off his horse, and walked over and said: "The third highness is back, maybe the emperor will come later, Your Highness asked you to hurry up and prepare to take over." ”
The guards were surprised: King De's Mansion has been deserted since it opened, and few people have visited, why did one of them come here today? Fortunately, there is a notice from the Third Highness. He smiled gratefully at Gu Ying and said, "The little one will be informed." ”
"By the way, the third prince has ordered, no matter who comes later, don't bother, he will bear the responsibility."
“...... Be. "The guards suddenly had a sigh in their hearts: The Third Highness is really courageous, isn't this 'no matter who it is' alluding to the emperor? Looking at Qi Guo, he is the only one who dares to be so presumptuous, and he can't find a second person.
......
"Your Royal Highness, the Fifth Prince's physique is weak, and in the past few months of being in a coma, his vitality has been severely depleted, fortunately, you arrived in time, if this disease is delayed and the poison spreads, I am afraid that he will not be able to return to the sky...... "An old doctor bowed and replied.
When Wei Chixuan heard this, his brows furrowed, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Come on, prepare the medicine tripod and present the first few antidotes." ”
"Your Highness, where is the medicine tripod?"
"Inside the house of the Fifth Highness." "Yes."
"Your Highness, the antidote is ready."
"In the house." "Yes."
The old doctor watched the guards and maids busy from the sidelines, and reminded in a low voice: "Third Highness, this medicine needs to be boiled and taken in time to have an effect. And this boiling process, it takes..."
"The king knows." He said lightly. Mu Ningjiu was proficient in all kinds of poisons, so he took a fluke and consulted Mu Ningjiu about this "laughing" poison. Unexpectedly, she was shocked when she heard it, saying that the poison was created by an unknown person in the rivers and lakes who was very good at using poison, and it was extremely domineering. This anonymous man is so varied that no one knows what he looks like or where he lives.
She said that although she did not know how the poison was made, she knew the importance of heat control in making the antidote. First add water, wait for the liquid to boil out on high fire, wet it with a towel, and wipe the whole body of the poisoned person. Add enough water to the remaining residue, boil slowly for two hours over low heat, and wait until the residue is dissolved and formed a thin paste before it can be taken out.
After Wei Chixuan checked the amount of each herb to ensure that it was completely accurate, he took out the wooden box containing the cold silk grass from his sleeve, opened it, took out one plant, mixed it with the rest of the herbs, and put it into the medicine pot. Then put away the silk grass and add water to light the fire. Although this was his first time cooking medicine, this set of movements was done in one go and was extremely proficient. Since he was a child, he learned everything quickly and well, saving a lot of time, so he achieved more than his peers.
"Ahem......" The smoke from the burning herbs smoked in his throat, and Yu Chixuan coughed uncomfortably.
Wei Chiyi, who had come to the Dewang Mansion for a long time but was helpless to wait at the door, frowned and sighed, and thought: Xuan'er has been tired of traveling and driving, and as soon as he arrived in the territory, he went into Che'er's room to cook medicine, which is really a deep brotherhood. But compared to Che'er, Xuan'er is more important to him. Don't cure Che'er and neglect your body...... Behind every new generation of emperors, there is an unspeakable bloody storm; In their view, the country is always more important than personal feelings. Every prince and princess is like a weight, light and heavy, and at critical moments, they can only give up one to protect one. Yu Chi Xuan is a sharp blade in his hand, which is much more useful than Yu Chi Che. These, although cruel, are clear facts.
"Your Royal Highness, Your Highness asked your subordinates to bring words, saying that this poison is complicated, and I am afraid that it will take several hours to detoxify, if Your Majesty is tired, go back to the palace first. After His Royal Highness has detoxified the poison of the Fifth Highness, he will enter the palace to see you on a certain day. Gu Ying bowed.
"It's fine. I will go back to the palace first, and you tell him to rest well, and there is no need to rush into the palace. If I am empty, it will not be too late to announce him. Hearing this, Wei Chiyi said lightly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Grandpa Cao!"
"The minions are here."
"Let's drive back to the palace."
"Yes."
------------------------------
"Woo-" The low and melodious sound of Xun floated from the time when the water and the sky met in the bright sunlight, and swayed to the corners of the valley. A woman is barefoot, sitting on a rock in the middle of a sun-soaked stream, and the moon-white Xun in her hand changes with the music, shining with different shades of blue.
The voice is sometimes low, sometimes high-pitched, sometimes aggressive, sometimes soothing; It is like a celestial dragon, so mysterious that you can't see its beginning and end, and it is impossible to guess the direction of the next note. Compared with the previous days, the sound of Xun was thicker and deeper, and it crossed the meadows, crossed the streams, and crossed the valleys, and reached far, far away.
The quality of Xun is ordinary, which comes from the soil that can be seen everywhere under the feet; Its voice is far away, like a low whimper of earth, ethereal and unpredictable, covering feelings that ordinary people cannot penetrate. After training in the past few days, Mu Ningjiu found that his thoughts have changed from learning Xun to become stronger at the beginning, to now understanding and appreciating the artistic conception and emotions it conveys to people step by step, and the progress before and after is really great.
......
"Not bad." When Mu Ningjiu heard the sound, he looked sideways at the visitor in surprise, and a smug smile rose at the corner of his mouth: The teacher has always been unsmiling in his training on weekdays, and he doesn't often praise people. The only time she heard it was to praise Na Xiao Luo; I didn't expect to get the teacher's praise today, and it seems that my practice for so many days has not been in vain. If you work harder, you might be able to get out of the customs in a few days!
A trace of excitement and anticipation surged in her heart: I don't know if Mu Mu has obediently gone to the academy to attend classes since she was away these days...... However, with Xiao Luo and recipes, there should be no need to worry.
"Qianwei Qu is quite proficient, I don't know how the basic techniques are practiced? Do you remember what the teacher told you, reaction and spiritual power reserves? These are the areas where we need to strengthen them. ”
"Teacher, when I fight against others, my spiritual power reserves still can't be improved, why is that?" Mu Ningjiu frowned and asked.
"This spiritual power reserve is linked to physical fitness, spiritual power supply, and spiritual power output. Although physical fitness is affected by innate factors, acquired effort accounts for most of it, and it is also the primary training module. You were in the Shenzhou Continent before, you should have been exposed to martial arts, right? That's one of the best ways to improve your physical fitness. ”
Mu Ning raised her eyebrows: That's no wonder, her physical fitness has been weak since she was born, so the master didn't teach her any martial arts, but just told her how to kill the enemy in one move.
"Then should I start practicing martial arts now? But apart from Xiao Luo, who else in the Phantom Clan knows martial arts? ”
"Martial arts is the best way to enhance physical fitness, if you want to use this as a breakthrough to improve your spiritual power reserves, you can ask Xiao Luo for advice. Secondly, our people have always used the most basic exercises, such as running, to strengthen our bodies, and you can too. ”
"It's easier than martial arts." Mu Ningjiu pondered.
"But relatively, the ascension is slower than that of martial arts. The way to replenish spiritual power is to absorb natural spiritual power, such as eating food rich in spiritual power, or directly absorbing spiritual power from other people's bodies. But this method is too dangerous to try. If you can't control the flow of spiritual power in time after absorbing spiritual power, it is very likely that your muscles and veins will be broken and you will go crazy. Over the years, there have been no such examples in the clan, but nothing has come to an end. The Tiger King said in a deep voice.
"Is that food some of the fruits and plants that the people eat on weekdays?" Mu Ning Jiu thought in her heart: No wonder the red fruit that Xiao Ling gave her that day would make her feel that her spiritual power had increased.
"Yes, pay attention to the appropriate amount of spiritual power supply. Excessive spiritual power is not like eating food without spiritual power that will make people fat, but it will lower physical fitness, and as a result, spiritual power reserves will not go up. "It's really a ring, Mu Ningjiu thought.
