Chapter 31: Sudden Red Spots
Just as Wang Liang was about to land on the shore, he suddenly felt a splitting headache, and his internal organs seemed to be burned, and Wang Liang only had time to walk to the shore for a while. As soon as he landed on the shore, Wang Liang took out a few simple healing pills and swallowed them, but the effect did not play a role, the feeling of burning all over his body became more intense, and he could clearly feel that his blood was flowing in his meridians like a flame, Wang Liang tried many methods to no avail, and finally had no choice but to cover his head with his hands, and the headache lasted for two pillars of incense, Wang Liang did not hold on, and fainted.
At night, Wang Liang opened his eyes leisurely, shook his head that was still a little painful, and began to look around, when he hurriedly went ashore, he only roughly saw that this place was a small hill, and now he looked at it, as far as the eye could see, there were high mountains, he was in a forest, there were few people around, there was no danger for the time being, Wang Liang sighed after determining where he was, it seemed that he could not return to the capital in a short time, and told Brother Gongsun that there was a traitor in the army.
It is also a shame that Wang Liang had planned to go ashore a long time ago, otherwise if he suddenly had a headache and fell into the river in the Linzhou River just now, he was afraid that he would end up with no bones.
Wang Liang's first thought was that his "Burning Flame Sutra" had been used too frequently recently, resulting in too much damage to the foundation and causing the abnormality of the body, but it was unlikely that after thinking about it, it was just that the foundation was damaged and the body would not have such a big reaction.
After not thinking about it for the time being, Wang Liang first lit a small bonfire, and then beat the little rabbit, and after a hasty meal of roast rabbits, the warmth in the abdomen slowly spread throughout the body, and then he felt that his physical strength had recovered a little, at this time, the clothes on Wang Liang's body were beaten by the river after repeated battles, and they were already worn, because there were no clothes that could be changed at hand, Wang Liang could only take good care of them, take off the clothes and put them by the fire to dry.
After taking off his shirt, Wang Liang suddenly saw some large and small spots on his body, the color was reddish, distributed on Wang Liang's chest and back, Wang Liang hurriedly checked his whole body, and sure enough, he found a few red spots on his legs, although he could guess that it was related to the previous body abnormality, but these spots were not painful or itchy, as if they did not exist, Wang Liang was not good at taking medicine indiscriminately, and finally had no choice but to give up, and decided to wait until he returned to the capital to expel them together.
That night, Wang Liang was lying on the bed made of leaves, his mind suddenly recalled his parents, and his heart couldn't help but grieve, he came to the frontier, he wanted to establish a meritorious service, and the stunt had just been practiced, it was the time to show his skills, but he didn't expect that he almost died before he failed to get out of school, and it was inevitable that he would live up to his parents and Gongsun brother to himself.
Wang Liang was a little frightened by this sudden thought, wasn't the red spot on his body the color of blood? It's like the pus and blood left by the rupture of pustules on the monster's body. Thinking of this, Wang Liang felt a chill all over his body, and he was about to turn into a monster?
Wang Liang had long been sleepy, and when he thought of this, he sat up, and by the faint moonlight, he lifted his clothes and carefully observed the red spots on his body.
"Could it be that I was unknowingly poisoned by that monster at the time, and I haven't been poisoned until now?" Wang Liang began to think carefully about the details of the fight with the monster in the basement, and repeatedly thought about how he was poisoned, and suddenly, Wang Liang remembered another thing.
"By the way, I found a white bead after burning the monster's corpse, and I have been carrying it with me all the time, maybe the white bead has a chronic toxin on it." Saying that, Wang Liang began to rummage through the white beads on his body, but soon, Wang Liang found that his white beads were gone.
"I remember that I always kept it close to my clothes, how could I lose it?" Wang Liang rummaged through it several times before he had to admit that the white beads were most likely lost in the wind and waves of the Linzhou River, so that the items that were most likely to poison him were gone, and Wang Liang fell into a dead end again.
Because Wang Liang was always worried about the red spots on his body, almost sleepless, as soon as the sky was bright, Wang Liang began to set off to the west, although there are mountains around, but for Wang Liang, who has spent almost half of his time in the mountains in recent years, rushing in the mountains is like a fish in water, and it only took half a day for Wang Liang to walk out of the mountains.
Standing on the hill, Wang Liang looked into the distance, and sure enough, at the foot of the mountain in the distance, found a small village, Wang Liang sighed that he was finally lucky for a while, and found someone so quickly, but the distance between the two mountains seems to be very short, in fact, Wangshan runs a dead horse, even if Wang Liang has been moving at full speed, in addition to the necessary food and rest, he did not dare to stop for a moment, and he walked to the entrance of the village late at night.
At this time, the people in the village had already turned off the lights and went to sleep, Wang Liang looked outside the village, found the largest family and knocked on the door, the house had not yet turned off the lights, and soon a man came out to open the door, looked at Wang Liang standing at the door, frowned slightly, and then saw the sword on Wang Liang's waist, and then said: "Who are you, what are you doing in our house?" ”
Wang Liang hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "My surname is Wang Mingliang, I am from Beijing, I crossed the Linzhou River by boat a few days ago, and then the boat was out of control due to strong winds, and I stumbled all the way and accidentally fell here. As he spoke, Wang Liang took out a small amount of silver from his sleeve.
The man who opened the door was originally frowning, but when he saw Wang Liang take out the silver, his brows suddenly relaxed, and the silver smiled and said: "Small problem, small problem, just for one night, although I am just a housekeeper, but such a small matter, I can also make my own decisions, so I don't have to wake up the master." After speaking, he hurriedly welcomed Wang Liangyou to the door, and then led Wang Liang to a side door, and served a few meals in a short time.
"Presumably, the son is sleeping in the deep mountains, and he has long been hungry, so I specially ordered him to go down and make you good wine and food, as soon as possible."
Wang Liang looked at such an enthusiastic housekeeper, smiled secretly, took the wine glass and said: "Thank you for the kindness of the housekeeper, but I have never been good at drinking, so the wine is free, and I will be respectful of the meal." After speaking, Wang Liang looked at it as a gobble.
The housekeeper paused, watched Wang Liang gobble, and slowly put down the wine glass: "Okay!" Childe ate and drank, but it was not enough for me to come again. After saying that, the butler slowly retreated.
Seeing the housekeeper go out, Wang Liang was unmoved, continued to pick up the food, and put it in his mouth, but Wang Liang did not swallow it, but put it in his mouth and spit it out immediately, until he heard the small sound of walking outside the house, Wang Liang stopped the movement in his hand, spit out the food in his mouth, got up and walked to the door, put his ear on the door, listened carefully for a while before nodding with satisfaction, and the most good seat, make the sound of the bowl and chopsticks colliding, about the time was up, Wang Liang blew out the lamp, pulled out the dragon in the night, held it tightly in his hand, and lay on the bed, Listen intently to the sounds outside the house.
Half an hour later, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, followed by a sound of Si Suo, and one of them said, "Hurry up, what are you doing with fear, it's not the first time I've done something like this." ”
Wang Liang heard that this voice was the voice of the housekeeper, and there were three people listening to the footsteps, and when the three of them walked to Wang Liang's window, one of them suddenly said loudly: "He has a sword in his hand!" ”
This sentence obviously frightened the person who spoke at first, and said tremblingly: "Otherwise, let's forget it." The housekeeper immediately scolded: "Since he ate the food I drugged, even the cow had to be drugged by me, what are you afraid of." ”
The other two were a little relieved after hearing this, at this time Wang Liang had already determined the location of the three of them through their conversation, suddenly snorted coldly, got up and burst out, the three of them were obviously frightened, one of them was so frightened that he sat on the ground, Wang Liang could tell it in an instant. Which is the housekeeper, a sword stabbed out, the sword light flashed over the butler's head and fell to the ground, blood spurted out, and only one person who was standing saw that his legs were weak, so he knelt on the ground, kowtowing and crying: "Uncle, the little one is just a momentary ghost, all of this is instructed by him, uncle, you have a lot of adults, just spare the villain." Seeing this, the two and one people also knelt on the ground and begged for mercy again and again.
Wang Liang looked at the two kneeling on the ground and snorted coldly: "Hurry up, I still don't bother to accept your Xiao Ming." ”
Seeing this, the two kneeling on the ground kowtowed several times, Wang Liang stopped them and asked, "You just need to tell me what place this is and how to get to the capital." ”
The two glanced at each other, and one of them got up and said: "This place is called Luoxia Village, and there is a city to the east when you leave this village, called Linchuan City, and then you will arrive at it after walking north for more than a month." ”
Wang Liang nodded, and then asked, "Do you have horses in your house?" ”
"Yes, yes, please come with me." Saying that, the two went out of the door, Wang Liang looked at the corpse of the housekeeper on the ground, stepped forward and groped for a while, took out a bulging money bag, opened it and saw that there were about 1,000 taels of silver tickets, as well as a pile of silver, Wang Liang sighed: "I am not satisfied with so much silver, but I don't know that I have already given you all the silver, and I want to thank you for coming to give me a coil." Speaking of the king, Wang Liang followed the two to the stable.
"This horse is the master's favorite horse, it cost a lot of money to buy it back, and the adults will be able to rush back to the capital as soon as possible by taking this horse."
Wang Liang looked at the white horse in front of him, and he also liked it very much, although he had the intention of causing trouble to himself, but he was not afraid of a rich businessman in a small place, and threw down a silver ticket and said: "I bought this horse, and you will tell your director early tomorrow morning, if you have any objections, you can go to Fancheng to find the Wang family, I hope you will not swallow this money privately, and then distort the facts, otherwise I will make you better than dead." “
After Wang Liang finished speaking, he led the horse out of the gate, there was no one along the way, Wang Liang secretly said that this housekeeper seems to be familiar with the matter of intercepting and killing passers-by, and has long been separated from all the domestic servants, no wonder no one has come to check such a big movement, I am afraid that the director here has also been drugged by the so-called housekeeper.
But all this has nothing to do with Wang Liang, and now Wang Liang just wants to return to the capital as soon as possible and cure the poison in his body.
