Chapter Seventy-Two: Heartlust Venom
Gu Qiuyu slept for three days, and when he woke up, it was afternoon, Yellowstone City was in the southwest of Panshi City, and it was a wasteland, it was already midsummer, the sun was scorching outside the house, accompanied by the sound of cicadas, and the fragrance of flowers floated in from the window.
Gu Qiuyu suddenly came to his senses, opened his eyes, and his mind was clear, first of all, he carried a trace of true qi, sensed that the Futu Seven Star Sword was next to the bed, his heart relaxed, he adjusted his body again, and it was no big problem, and he was glad that he was saved by the sword box again.
He sat up strongly, and lay down for three days that made him sore, but there was no discomfort in his body, and his internal injuries were almost healed.
The power of Heluo's palm was indeed terrifying, even a martial artist with high internal strength like Gu Qiuyu was instantly shocked to disperse the internal qi of the protective body, if there was no sword box to resist, then he would not be lying on this comfortable bed now.
The people outside the house heard Gu Qiuyu's voice, and ran in in a panic, and saw Gu Qiuyu leaning on the bed, her face was a little thinner, and her eyes showed a smile because they saw her.
"Sir, you're awake!" the man shouted in surprise when he saw that Gu Qiuyu was fine, and tears had fallen from his eyes unconsciously.
Gu Qiuyu looked at the woman in front of her, wasn't that fair skin and beautiful face Liu Yiyue?
A gust of fragrant wind hit, and Liu Yiyue was already lying on his lap, and the bean-sized tears in her eyes kept dripping down.
Gu Qiuyu gently held Liu Yiyue's head and said softly, "Don't cry, don't cry, I'm fine." ”
The more Gu Qiuyu was like this, the more fierce Liu Yiyue cried, and she couldn't cry and said, "Yiyue should die, I didn't take care of my husband......" Hearing this, Gu Qiuyu couldn't bear it for a while, and her serious injury made Liu Yiyue too frightened.
At this time, the door of the room was opened, and Meng Jingchu and He Hua walked in.
Meng was shocked and sweating profusely, holding many packages in his arms, seeing that Gu Qiuyu had woken up, he ran over regardless of the items in his arms, half-knelt beside the bed, and said with joy on his face, "Sir! ”
Gu Qiuyu nodded, looked at He Hua at the door, and saw that she was wearing a black power suit, leaning next to the door, looking at him with a smile.
Gu Qiuyu's old face turned red, and he patted Liu Yiyue, who was crying on her lap.
Liu Yiyue saw that everyone in the house was looking at her, and retreated awkwardly, with tears in her eyes.
Although Gu Qiuyu was in a coma, he still had some thoughts in his heart, knowing that several days had passed, and He Hua was also by his side these days.
"It's okay if you wake up, I'll go out first, you and these two should have something to say. He Hua glanced at Gu Qiuyu, turned around and left.
Originally, she was taking care of Gu Qiuyu for the past few days, and she only left when she listened to the report of the Sky Eagle Guard. After all, Qingxuan and Genting Hall may still be inside and outside the city, and they should not be taken lightly. Until these two people appeared yesterday, Liu Yiyue took care of Gu Qiuyu on her own, and even Meng Jingchu was not allowed to enter the room.
"Tell me what's going on. Gu Qiuyu drank some water, felt that his hands and face were very clean, and he didn't feel too hungry and thirsty, so naturally he was well taken care of when he was asleep.
When he left Rock City, he didn't take the two with him, but stayed in the Lin Mansion, this trip was dangerous, his own life and death were unknown, and taking the two with him would only become a burden.
Liu Yiyue lowered her head, didn't say a word, and glanced at Meng Jingchu with her eyes, Meng Jingchu saw this, but said glutinously, "Sir, after you leave, I ...... I missed my husband so much that I persuaded Yiyue to catch up. ”
"You guys just ran out like this, and the Lin family didn't care?"
"Yes, sir, the two of us just went out of the Lin Mansion directly, and no one stopped us along the way. ”
Gu Qiuyu's heart rolled for a while, and after thinking for a while, he said to the two, "That's fine, but why did you come to me after you came out?" When he was leaving, he specially told the Lin Mansion to let them take care of the two of them and not let them go out at will. But as soon as he left on his front foot, no one in the Lin Mansion cared about the two of them, and it seemed that he still wished that the two of them would leave quickly.
Meng was shocked and said, "After we went out, we found a caravan and gave silver, and they happened to have other men and women accompanying us, so we came over together."
"How was it along the way?"
"This caravan seems to come here a lot, and it's still safe along the way, and the food and lodging are good. ”
After they came to Yellowstone City, they came directly to the barracks in the city, and the people who listened to the rain pavilion also knew the two, and directly took them to meet Xiao Wuchang, Xiao Wuchang said something to them, and sent them here.
Gu Qiuyu listened to what happened to the two of them, and asked about the appearance of the caravan leader, Meng replied in surprise, the person was not tall and had dark skin, Gu Qiuyu laughed when he heard it.
After talking for a while, Meng Jingchu went out to arrange food. Gu Qiuyu stood up and walked to Liu Yiyue's side, only to see that her figure was a little thinner, the tears on her face had not yet dried, but her eyes were full of satisfied smiles, thinking that she had suffered a lot of sins in the past ten days.
"Monthly, hard work. ”
"Sir, you have been so seriously injured, sir......" Liu Yiyue cried again.
When she saw Gu Qiuyu yesterday, she saw that he was unconscious, his anger was like a hanging thread, and his heart was close to despair.
Gu Qiuyu had no choice but to help her sit down and comfort her.
Meng Jingchu took back some food, the three of them ate something, Gu Qiuyu let the two of them have a good rest, put the sword box on their backs and prepared to find Xiao Wuchang, the war was about to break out, he fell asleep for three days, and he had already delayed a lot of things, so he had to understand the current situation quickly.
"Finished talking about the old?" As soon as Gu Qiuyu went out, he saw He Hua standing in the shade of a tree, looking at himself calmly, with a little inexplicability in his words.
Gu Qiuyu didn't know what she was referring to, smiled slightly, came to He Hua, and said, "Xiaohua, thank you for taking care of you for the past two days." ”
"Xiao Senjun is waiting for you in the main hall. After speaking, he turned around and left, and Gu Qiuyu hurriedly chased after him.
In the Huangshi City Mansion, a team of armor soldiers are constantly patrolling, and the Sky Eagle Guard is hidden in the shadows, vigilant of the surrounding movements, the big battle is imminent, everyone is very nervous in their hearts, and the people who feel oppressed are breathless.
The five thousand iron cavalry of Shiguo entered Huangshi City in the evening of the second day of the encirclement and suppression of the Yunding Palace, and the soldiers of Chenzhou still needed a few days, and the specific number was about five thousand, but most of them were infantry troops, and they were not well trained, and there was not much food and grass.
Now Yellowstone City has been under martial law in the whole city, only allowed to enter, not allowed to exit, each entrance is guarded by the Aquila Guard, in case Mingguo's fine work mixes in.
After listening to He Hua, Gu Qiuyu nodded slightly, he really didn't understand military politics, but he also had a lot of doubts in his heart, there were not many defenders in this Yellowstone City, there were already 20,000 troops in Mingguo before they arrived, and Liu Yang, a traitor, to sweep away this Yellowstone City was just a matter of raising his hand, but he never attacked, but instead arranged for the people of Yunding Hall and Qingxuan to ambush in the city, what is this for, I'm afraid it is not as simple as taking Yellowstone City or Chenzhou.
Gu Qiuyu and the others came to the main hall, and saw that Xiao Wuchang was discussing something with one person, Xiao Wuchang Gu Qiuyu came, his body was fine, his expression was happy, and he said, "Commander Gu, has your body healed?"
Gu Qiuyu's heart tightened, and he was very dissatisfied with Xiao Wuchang telling his real name in front of outsiders, but he still said respectfully, "Thank you Xiao for joining the army, my body is already fine." ”
"Okay, good, good, the ancient commander has recovered, it's really a relief to me, let me introduce, this is General Li Wucheng of Shiguo, and this time it is he who leads five thousand iron cavalry. Xiao Wuchang introduced the middle-aged man beside him to Gu Qiuyu.
"People from the Li family?" Gu Qiuyu's heart moved, no wonder Xiao Wuchang made his identity clear, and He Hua on the side also knew his identity.
"Xiaguan Gu Qiuyu, see General Li. ”
Li Wucheng waved his hand and said, "Commander Gu doesn't have to be polite, this time he just sent five thousand men and horses by order of His Majesty, and the specific matters of the battle have to rely on the two of you." In the next is just mediocre, obey the two reprimands. ”
"General Li is too modest, this man is the master of tigers and wolves taught by the general, and he has won the trust of the saints. How dare I, a junior, mention it with the general. ”
"Ah, the ancient commander of the young Shenwu, Your Majesty mentioned it several times, which made me envious in my heart, and when I saw it today, it was really extraordinary......"
The two exchanged pleasantries again, Gu Qiuyu is as pure as this kind of entertainment, he was born in a high position, he knew a lot about this kind of thing when he was young, and he was even more familiar with it when he used it, without the slightest rustiness.
He Hua, who was watching it, was disdainful in her heart, and scolded Gu Qiuyu for hypocrisy, as a martial artist, she was very disdainful of this kind of official words.
"Alright, let's get down to business. Xiao Wuxian couldn't stop politely getting into it, so he had to interrupt with words.
Subsequently, he told Gu Qiuyu about the current situation of the soldiers, money and food, and Gu Qiuyu, and he didn't expect Gu Qiuyu to understand, but this procedure must be done, then Li Wucheng's arrival this time also played the role of supervising the army, although Li Hongfu handed over this matter to the two of them, but he still had to be supervised by someone on the side, which Xiao Wuchang could fully understand.
"Xiao joins the army, what about the casualties of the Sky Eagle Guard?" This matter is what Gu Qiuyu cares about the most.
"Two people were killed and five were wounded. ”
Gu Qiuyu nodded, this number of casualties was acceptable to him, "What about the group of people in the Cloud Dome Palace?"
"I didn't say anything important, all the information was in Elder Zhao's hands, and now that he is dead, this group of people from the Genting Hall is of little value. "Xiao Wuchang doesn't matter.
Gu Qiuyu said, "Well, they are all chivalrous, so treat each other with courtesy." In the future, you can also negotiate some conditions with them and the Genting Palace. ”
That's exactly what I mean. ”
After discussing for a while, Gu Qiuyu was silent for a while, and slowly said the question in his heart, "Xiao joined the army, what kind of martial arts did that Qingxuan person use that day, it was so powerful, if it wasn't for luck, I'm afraid I would have died in Huangquan." ”
Heluo's palm that day made him feel palpitations now, that kind of powerful power should not belong to a warrior of this age at all.
Xiao Wuchang looked at Gu Qiuyu calmly, then looked at He Hua, and saw that the eyes of the two of them were full of questions, so he slowly said the matter, "What Heluo drinks is heart-loving venom. ”
"Isn't this kind of thing lost a long time ago?" He Huadu asked in advance, showing that he was shocked in his heart.
"What is Heart-Loving Venom?" Gu Qiuyu was puzzled, he had never heard of this strange drug.
He Hua said, "Anything about the venom of the heart is taboo in Huazhou, according to legend, this medicine has long been lost, but I didn't expect it to appear on the body of the disciple of Qingxuan, but I don't know if this Heluo has a prescription...... No, I need to report this to my brother immediately. After He Hua finished speaking, she ignored Xiao Wuchang and Gu Qiuyu and left.
"Xiao joins the army, what is this Heartthirsty Venom?" Gu Qiuyu saw that after He Hua heard the Heartthirsty Venom, he changed his normal state, and couldn't help but become more curious in his heart.
Xiao Wuchang said, "This thing is created by the strange people of Huazhou, the ancestor who is addicted, and after drinking it, people can instantly increase their combat power several times, and the body is highly poisonous, and ordinary people will die at the touch of it." It is said that when he refined this night, the bright and sunny sky was covered with dark clouds in an instant, and the thunder was loud, and the greedy ancestor saw this, and decided that this thing was against the harmony of heaven, so he hid the prescription, and later, this prescription was obtained by a small faction in Huazhou, and the small faction obtained a large number of refinements after the prescription, sold it around and took it by itself, and soon had a place in Huazhou, and several major sects in Huazhou were afraid that it would be too strong, so they practiced their hands to destroy it, and the prescription disappeared with the small faction. ”
"Worry is fake, take the prescription is real. Gu Qiuyu thought secretly in his heart, and said bluntly, "Did those big factions resist the temptation of this prescription?"
Xiao Wuchang shook his head and said, "How can there be power in this world that is obtained for no reason, although the heart-loving venom is strong, it also has a fatal flaw, that is, the time of the effect of the medicine is too short, only two quarters of an hour, and the body of the person taking the medicine will be severely damaged, the life span will be sharply reduced, and the internal qi will not be able to be used for half a year." ”
Although this heart-loving venom has flaws, it still has a fatal attraction for martial artists, just imagine, if a master drinks this medicine while being besieged, the situation will change in an instant, and defeat will turn into victory.
"And then? Who took the prescription? Gu Qiuyu was curious.
"These sects didn't get anything, and it was as if the prescription had suddenly disappeared, and now it appeared in the hands of Qingxuan's disciples, which was really strange. ”
Gu Qiuyu said in his heart, Na Heluo is also ruthless enough, seeing that there is no hope of breaking through, he decisively drank this medicine, so that he can get out of the encirclement, and he thought of Bai Linfeng, who is also a disciple of Qingxuan who uses a secret weapon. So he told Xiao Wuchang about another Qingxuan disciple who was known as the Ten Masters, and he also used a secret weapon.
Li Wucheng was also curious when he heard what the two of them said about the martial arts, and he looked at the sword box on Gu Qiuyu's back from time to time, and felt that the martial arts people were still very mysterious.
The three of them were sighing in the house when Qing Xuan had become so vicious, when a Sky Eagle guard suddenly broke in and said with an anxious expression, "Two adults, the vanguard army of the Ming Kingdom has resisted the Yinmapo twenty miles away from Huangshi City, and is now encamping there. ”
Xiao Wuchang's eyes lit up and said, "It's finally here!"
