Chapter 176: Saving King Jin
Luo Wenqian's heart was a little heavy, although the map in Zhang Zhong's hand was a very simple stroke, but he had seen the map of the entire county, and he knew that the place was close to the mountain on the side of the pass, not only that, but the mountain that flowed through the side was the Biguan River.
If the water source hadn't dried up, there would have been water flowing into the Biguan River, but now it doesn't, and it's very likely that the creek has also dried up.
However, without witnessing it with his own eyes, Luo Wenqian still wanted to go in person.
After walking for three hours, it was only more than half of the distance, and the sky was already gray at this time, Luo Wenqian and his party followed Zhang Zhong to camp in a place he was familiar with, and they spent the night here tonight.
Some people picked up firewood, some people started a fire, some people heated dry food, Luo Wenqian also ate two baked cakes with the water in the water bladder, and then the group took turns to keep vigil.
When the dawn broke, the group boiled the water in the water bladder, broke the baked cake and boiled it when it was hot, and the group ate and drank two bowls of food, and then continued to hurry.
It was another three hours, and by the time the sun had passed noon, it was finally approaching its destination.
"Master." Wei Shiyi, who had been hiding in the dark, suddenly appeared and blocked Luo Wenqian's way.
For the person who suddenly appeared, except for Luo Wenqian, the other six people were startled.
Zhang Zhong realized at this time that Luo Wenqian's line was not simple, but he was silent and didn't say much.
"What's wrong?" Luo Wenqian's brows furrowed slightly, if there was no major matter, it would be impossible for Wei Shiyi to appear in front of people.
"There are people ahead, quite a few people." Wei Shiyi's expression was solemn, "My subordinates will go and inquire first." ”
"Stay safe and come back if you're not sure." Luo Wenqian explained, Wei Shiyi nodded and disappeared in front of people in an instant.
"Find a place where you can hide." Luo Wenqian spoke, and the rest of the people all obediently did so, most of it was because of the influence of Wei Shiyi.
The officials in the government felt that there were no other adults who had not found out Luo Wenqian's background, how could ordinary people still have someone to protect them secretly, and they couldn't afford to hire them.
Zhang Zhong distinguished some wild feces around him, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the humidity was a few days ago.
Wei Shiyi returned after a quarter of an hour, his eyes were a little deep, he didn't come back alone, he was followed by a burly, bearded man, Luo Wenqian always felt a little inexplicably familiar, but the momentum of the other party was really unseen.
"The new general judge Luo Wenqian?" The bearded man called out his name, and Luo Wenqian saw that Wei Shiyi was not restrained, thinking that he was someone he knew, so he immediately admitted it.
"Yes."
"I'm Chen Jin'an, the commander of Taiyuan Prefecture, can you take the doctor up the mountain this time?" Chen Jin'an asked with a strong momentum.
"Commander Chen, the subordinate didn't bring a doctor, but he brought some medicine, but someone was injured?" Luo Wenqian saluted Chen Jin'an.
"Come with me." Chen Jinan stretched out his hand, turned around and strode away.
Wei Shiyi followed Luo Wenqian half a step and reported in a low voice what he saw.
"Master, there are people from the Jin Palace, there are still a lot of corpses on the ground, the fight at the scene is obvious, look at the corpses and see that they are Tatars."
Luo Wenqian's brows furrowed, he didn't understand why there was a fight here, it was still two people.
"The water source over there is not exhausted, on the contrary, ......" Wei Shiyi didn't know how to say what he had just seen, his mood was very complicated, the people in the county were short of water like that, but the water source on the mountain was intercepted, and the water source was so much that it overflowed, if the water was not intercepted, the Biguan River would not dry up, even if the water flow would not be large, but at least it could solve the urgent need.
"The water source is blocked?" Luo Wenqian immediately blurted out as soon as he saw Wei Shiyi's appearance.
"Yes."
"The Tatars stopped you?" Luo Wenqian will not doubt the King of Jin, thinking that the King of Jin and his party will come here for the sake of the people, the Tatars have become corpses, that is, the competition for water has been successful, and the commander can personally invite himself, and the injured should be the King of Jin.
"King Jin is injured?" Luo Wenqian's steps increased unconsciously, Wei Shiyi effortlessly followed, the master was smart, he didn't need to say more.
When they arrived at the place where King Jin and his entourage were camped, many guards guarded them, only Luo Wenqian was allowed to enter, and the rest of the people were all intercepted outside the camp and let them sit on the ground on their own.
Luo Wenqian took off the burden on his shoulders, and followed Chen Jin'an to a small tent that was tied up, the tent was open, the ground was covered with oilcloth, and the mat was matted, and a middle-aged man who was not wearing a shirt and had a strong figure was lying reclining, his face was a little blue, but a pair of sharp eyes, as soon as Luo Wenqian appeared, he stared straight at it, and when he arrived in front of him, a trace of surprise flashed in his keen eyes, and he immediately returned to normal.
"Luo Tong's sentence."
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin." Luo Wenqian bowed his head and saluted, and then he saw the left trouser leg pulled up by King Jin, the ankle was obviously swollen, and some green juice was smeared on it, and the two obvious holes in the middle of the swelling were obvious.
Luo Wenqian's brows tightened, "How long have you been bitten by a snake?" ”
"Three hours." Chen Jinan replied that he had marched and fought, knew some medicinal materials, and knew some first-aid methods, so he immediately drained the blood, but the snake was too venomous, even if the blood squeezed out was already red, King Jin's face was still getting more and more blue.
"Xiaguan has a medicine for snake venom here, can His Royal Highness King Jin use it?" Luo Wenqian looked straight at the man who was still not the slightest flustered even though he was in danger, and the peach blossom eyes on his angular face were slightly raised, and the bottom of his eyes was a clear light.
"Since there is medicine, give it to this king." King Jin nodded without the slightest hesitation.
"Lord Wang." Chen Jinan was taken aback by King Jin, and immediately stood between King Jin and Luo Wenqian, blocking the eye contact between the two.
Chen Jin'an has followed King Jin since he was young, and naturally knows that King Jin just saw Luo Wenqian's pair of Ruifeng eyes when he was a little stagnant, what about the similarity, he can't gamble with his life.
"Xia Guan is willing to try the medicine first." Chen Jinan said seriously.
"Xiaguan's medicine is very precious, and you can't try it." Luo Wenqian immediately refused, "And whether people who have not been bitten will have other reactions after using it, the lower officials dare not guarantee, but it is true that this medicine has indeed cured people who have been bitten by snakes." ”
"Jin'an, you are making too much of a fuss, Luo Tong is here, and Mrs. Luo is pregnant, Luo Tong is about to become a father, how can you mistreat this king at this juncture." King Jin waved Chen Jin'an away.
Luo Wenqian's pupils shrank, and his eyes looked at King Jin with a hint of coldness.
"Oops, it's a daughter-in-law, that's better." King Jin sat up with a smile, "You give medicine to this king." ”
Luo Wenqian's breath remained unchanged, he directly crossed Chen Jin'an, reached out and closed the open tent curtain, and then squatted down to shake off the burden a little.
"What do you do?" Chen Jinan opened the curtain and entered as soon as possible, and reached out to grab Luo Wenqian's hand that was carrying the burden.
"Let go." Luo Wenqian turned his head and glanced at Chen Jin'an, the momentum oppression brought by the invisible made Chen Jin'an a little surprised, turned his head to look at King Jin, and nodded before letting go, but the others did not go out.
