Chapter 40: The Stone of Graduality
Tongguan is the most precipitous of the five passes, the general soldier Yu Hualong, although he is a mortal, does not pass the arts, but is a martial arts legend, and is good at defense, relying on the geographical advantages of Tongguan, caused a lot of trouble to the army of the Great Zhou.
Yu Hualong also has several sons, Yu Da, Yu Zhao, Yu Guang, Yu Xian all have some left-hand skills, among which Yu Da has "Hitting the Heart Pestle", Yu Zhao has "Apricot Yellow Flag", Yu Guang has "Plum Blossom Dart" and so on.
There were several generals who were conspired to donate their lives when they fought with them, and two of them Qiao Kun was very familiar, one was Huang Feihu's subordinate Zhou Ji, and the other was Hou Suhu of Jizhou.
Zhou Ji and Qiao Kun have known each other for 20 years, and they have straightforward personalities, although they like to play some clever tricks, Qiao Kun doesn't hate him, and the relationship between the two is not bad.
Su Hu is the father of Su Daji and Su Quanzhong, and his martial arts are very good, but he unexpectedly died here.
However, Xiqi did not lose completely, Yu Hongshao slashed Yu Da with a sword, snatched the "heart-hitting pestle", Deng Chanyu bounced off the "plum blossom dart" with the "Five Elements Clothes", and killed Yu Guang with "Dinghaizhu".
Su Quanzhong urged the move that ended up with Yu Hualong, and severely injured Yu Hualong.
However, in the end, Yu Hualong was snatched back by his generals and did not die.
Su Quanzhong was also severely injured because of the strong urging moves, if it weren't for Ji Xinrou, the goddess doctor, to urge the mana to support, I was afraid that the realm of "Legend of Martial Arts" would not be guaranteed.
Qiao Kun was not only happy that the "Five Elements Clothes" protected Deng Chanyu, but also felt sad for Daji.
Now the generals are discussing how to fight with the defenders of Tongguan. After the heavy damage of the general soldier Yu Hualong, Tongguan was defended according to the danger, and it was protected by humane luck, so it was difficult to break through. The army attacked repeatedly for several days and suffered heavy losses.
In the end, no result was discussed.
Waiting for the crowd to disperse, Ji Xinrou grabbed Qiao Kun's wrist, "Brother, let me take a look, are you okay?" I'm worried. She had already arrived at the tent, but she had kept quiet.
Qiao Kun had no choice but to let her urge the mana to investigate, "I'm fine." ”
As long as the upper limit of blood on the ground is super doubled, the defense is super doubled, the blood return is super doubled, and he turns back from the void and is down-to-earth, he will not have to worry about his life, even if all the plague pills of Lu Yue's plague cultivation will not harm him.
Moreover, he walks, sits and lies down as a practice, and as long as he gets through the most difficult moments, he will slowly get better.
During this time, he got another eyelash of the Pangu God and the essence of Taiyin collected by Bing'e, and he recovered very well, or he could go further in a few days, so he really didn't have to worry.
Ji Xinrou snorted: "When you were sent back, the color on your body changed back and forth, how could I not worry?" ”
However, she probed and found that Qiao Kun was really fine, so she was relieved, and asked Qiao Kun again, "How can you have the mana of 'Shennong's Materia Medica'?" And it seems to be even more profound than me? "There was a clear suspicion.
Qiao Kun had no choice but to reply: "That's the subtlety of the 'Great Freedom Dizi' exercise, Princess Longji knows." ”
"Oh." Ji Xinrou had to believe it.
At this time, Ji Fa was also there, and the brother and sister said something more, and Qiao Kun was thinking about whether to let Ji Xinrou inherit Lu Yue's poisonous way.
After thinking about it, he still gave up, the plague and the cute young lady didn't go very well.
Qiao Kun got out of the tent, but saw Su Quanzhong waiting outside the tent, he knew what Su Quanzhong was doing, and he had a tacit understanding, so he followed Su Quanzhong away.
He didn't know that he would be taken back to the Wa Palace by Si Ming, and he was delayed for so long, so he didn't tell Su Quanzhong in advance.
When there was no one, Qiao Kun asked, "Are your injuries okay?" ”
"The little princess has seen it, and the problem is not too big." Su Quanzhong's figure was a little gloomy, "My father was shrouded in horse leather and buried outside Tongguan, I want Daji to worship." ”
It is reasonable to say that Daji should visit the shrine, but now that the Heavenly Palace is locked, Qiao Kun is also powerless, so he has to explain: "If I don't want to, I really can't." Some time ago, I was trapped by the 'Heart Piercing Lock' urged by Yu Yuan, and there were many spells that I couldn't use. Daji can't summon it. ”
Since Qiao Kun said this, Su Quanzhong couldn't force it, and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Daji?" ”
"It's fine."
"That's good." After knowing that Daji's life was safe, Su Quanzhong was much more relieved, but there were still many regrets on his face.
Qiao Kun asked Su Quanzhong to take him to the tombs of Su Hu and Zhou Ji to pay respects.
After a while, Su Quanzhong left. Qiao Kun took out the "Bixiao Phoenix Yin" and played a song "The Stone of Graduality".
"Gradually, the stone is high. The mountains and rivers are far away, and they are tired. The warriors went eastward, not to mention the dynasty. Gradually, the stone is maintained. The mountains and rivers are far away, but are they gone? The warriors went on a crusade to the east, not to be outdone. There are white feet, wading waves. The moon is gone, and it is surging. The warriors are not emperors. ”
Qiao Kun's piano skills are now greatly improved, and when he plays it at this moment, he has all kinds of visions, but this song is not a complaint, not a mourning, but a show that the soldiers have no hesitation, do not want to retreat, just move forward.
After talking about this song, Qiao Kun couldn't help but sigh, now that the Heavenly Palace is locked, Daji shouldn't know about this situation yet. Qiao Kun didn't know how to tell her.
was killed by the fox spirit, used his body for evil, was misunderstood by his parents, and was misunderstood by the world, and finally recognized his father and resolved the misunderstanding, but it didn't take long for the yin and yang to separate.
She couldn't fulfill her filial piety during her father's lifetime, and she couldn't worship after her death. Fate was a little harsh on this girl.
The only consolation may be that Su Hu did not pass away with a misunderstanding of Daji.
"Childe, it's time to go back." Xia Hua came to Qiao Kun's side and said softly, she should be worried that he would come over on purpose.
"Okay." Qiao Kun agreed, and Xia Hua went back to the barracks and came to the camp arranged for him by Jiang Ziya. There were fiery beasts in the tent.
"Why are you here?" Qiao Kun asked it.
"I'm afraid you're going to die suddenly. That heart-piercing lock, and that plague are very powerful, right? The voice of the fiery eyed beast was a gentle female voice, "And Chanyu is also worried about you." ”
"I'm fine." Qiao Kun said, gently stroking the fur of the fiery eyed beast, since the Western teaching method has been refined, he has a sense that he is more and more repulsed by the possible future.
But since he was the accident that Emperor Xi was waiting for, he was able to change those.
The fiery-eyed beast seemed to want to say something, but seeing that Qiao Kun was a little resistant, he finally gave up.
After it left, Qiao Kun continued to practice, and in the middle of the night, he heard some wailing.
Qiao Kun couldn't help but check, but Xia Hua grabbed him, "Childe be careful!" ”
Qiao Kun naturally understood what Xia Hua meant, he was afraid that it was an infectious disease, and he was worried that he would also be tricked.
"Don't worry." Qiao Kun stretched out his hand and patted Xia Hua, his various resistances were more than ten million times that of mortals, and Lu Yue's plague inheritance was all in his hands, no matter how much plague there was, he was not afraid.
After some investigation, the soldiers of the three armies were feverish, all the generals were restless, and many soldiers were lying in the camp tents, some with red faces, some crying out for pain, and some trembling.
Many people, along with Jiang Ziya and King Wu, were not spared, but they were only light or heavy.
Ordinary soldiers can no longer take care of themselves, and there are small pimples on their faces and necks, which look very terrifying, and those who have advanced cultivation are only slightly uncomfortable, and they can move freely.
There are only four people who are really unaffected, Qiao Kun, Xia Hua, Nezha and Princess Longji. Qiao Kun's incarnation, Yu Hongshao, was a little uncomfortable.
Nezha is a treasure person, not a human body, Princess Longji is a golden immortal, and Qiao Kun is a leakless body, which is easy to understand if it is not affected.
Xia Hua is fine, which is really beyond Qiao Kun's expectations. He could only guess that Xia Hua had a treasure to protect herself, or that the "Golden Crow Burning Sky" was mysterious. He didn't want to dig deeper, and he also hoped that Xia Hua was okay.
Although Nezha was not hit, seeing that the generals and the people were like this, he couldn't help but panic, "Brother, what should I do now?" "It's okay to let him charge, and it's more than he can do to deal with 600,000 sick people.
"Don't panic." Qiao Kun comforted him first.
This disease is not mentioned in the "Shennong's Materia Medica" and "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing", but Qiao Kun had some experience in his previous life and learned some sporadically.
Is it rubella? Chickenpox? Measles? Or smallpox? Qiao Kun thought about it while urging the mana to sense the situation in Huang Tianhua's body, and the "Shennong Materia Medica" sensed that there were all kinds of things wrong in Huang Tianhua's body, but Qiao Kun knew that this was not the root of the disease.
He operated the "Law of Creation" and Lu Yue's Plague Dao, probing them with the mana of the "Shennong's Materia Medica", and sensing them carefully, without missing a single point.
Running all kinds of mana to the limit, Qiao Kun finally discovered that there was a tiny life form in Huang Tianhua's body, and it was the existence of this kind of thing that caused people to get sick. There are traces of the Law of Creation in this living being.
Bacteria? Virus? Although he couldn't figure it out for a while, it didn't prevent him from treating. Just kill these small lifeforms and you can return to normal, right?
Qiao Kun's first attempt was sword qi, using "Shangqing Xuanmen has no phase sword qi", this sword technique is varied, and there is no one who can stand out from it.
He tried to gradually shrink the sword qi and carefully kill these small lifeforms.
But these creatures are too small, even if Qiao Kun shrunk the sword qi to be smaller than the tip of a needle, it is still too big for them. At this level of precision, the sword qi that was originally thought to be like an arm and finger was difficult to control.
If you are not careful, it is easy to hurt the patient.
However, Qiao Kun was extremely patient and controlled it slowly, so he simply manipulated his sword qi more skillfully and subtly, and he was handy.
With the elimination of these lifeforms, the symptoms of Huang Tianhua have also been greatly reduced.
This method is really effective, but the efficiency is too low, if you treat the patient with the "Shangqing Xuanmen has no phase sword technique", he can only treat a few people without sleep in a day.
Even if he improves his speed, he should only be able to treat more than a dozen people a day.
And there were 700,000 soldiers, and he couldn't finish the treatment.
So Qiao Kun took Huang Tianhua as a sample, and after accumulating some experience, he tried several methods by himself, and began to treat Ji Xinrou.
This is a very important part, and Ji Xinrou is also practicing the mana of the "Shennong Materia Medica", which cures her and can help her more.
It's just that I don't know why, Ji Xinrou's symptoms are worse than others, and people are a little confused. Qiao Kun urged the mana to kill those little lifeforms, but she was unexpectedly hugged by her hand, and said in her mouth, "Master, Xin Rou is so uncomfortable. ”
Qiao Kun inexplicably remembered that when this young lady was afraid of leaving her grandson with a flattering drug, she also held his hand like this, and held his hand and touched it everywhere, he could only hope that the young lady would not mess around, otherwise she would really die.
Thankfully, it didn't happen, and he was able to hold out until the treatment was over.
Ji Xinrou woke up, still a little weak, looked at Qiao Kun and said, "Brother, what's wrong with me?" ”
Qiao Kun touched her forehead, "It's okay, it's just a little sick." ”
"Oh." Ji Xin responded softly, but her head shrank back, "A lot of people are watching, brother, what are you going to do?" "Actually, there aren't many, only Princess Longji, Xia Hua, and Qingqiu.
"What is this?" Qiao Kun smiled, "I don't know who was holding my hand just now, what else was there, Master, I'm so uncomfortable." "There are some things that can't be hidden from her, let her be mentally prepared early.
As soon as these words came out, Ji Xinrou's face turned red and she denied it. Qiao Kun didn't say much, let her.
When Ji Xinrou recovered, Qiao Kun rescued the strongest people in the military medical hall.
He counted on the people in the military medical hall to help him treat many soldiers together.
The people in the military medical hall have not studied the "Shennong Materia Medica", and they cannot sense those disease-causing small life forms, and their "sword technique for helping the wounded" cannot be subtle enough to kill those small life forms without affecting the health of patients.
Qiao Kun combined everything and created a simple and easy-to-learn method for them. These sword qi can identify specific small lifeforms and kill them with precision.
However, the operation is relatively cumbersome, and the effect still needs the feedback of the people in these military medical halls.
Even if there are medical skills and the "Sword Technique for Helping the Wounded" as a foundation, this technique is not so easy to learn. According to their opinions, Qiao Kun made corresponding adjustments.
In this process, Qiao Kun also asked Princess Longji for help. This princess's wealth of knowledge and experience can come in handy.
When the safe and simple version was adjusted, Qiao Kun taught these to the people in the military medical hall, guided them to rest, and treated a few patients by the way.
Nezha and Princess Longji were safe and sound, and they were all urged by Qiao Kun to learn this trick. They are golden immortals, but they don't have the foundation of the "Sword Technique for Helping the Wounded", and they can't learn as fast as the military doctor in the military medical hall.
At this time, the main camp tent was already a place where all the military doctors gathered, and they worked hard to cultivate, and the sword qi on their bodies rose and fell.
Qiao Kun urged the spell to kill the disease-causing creatures in Jiang Ziya and Ji Fa's body.
Jiang Ziya's symptoms improved, his face was tired, and he couldn't help but sigh: "This time is the story of Lu Yue that year, fortunately, although there is no Mr. Feng, there are Taoist friends to help." ”
Qiao Kun felt that Jiang Ziya was hinting at something, but it was not the point now.
While treating the sick, he pondered and used the "method of creation" to create tiny disease-causing creatures, so isn't it a disease-causing microorganism?
Is this a bacterium or a virus? So is this actually a biochemical war?
Perhaps we can use the "method of creation" to carefully cultivate drugs that can kill this living organism.
