When Long Zixi woke up, he found himself lying on the bed, with a lamp in the room, reflecting several figures.

He tried to move, but his whole body was in pain, so he simply closed his eyes again.

After a while, my mind cleared a little, and the situation of fighting dogs appeared in my mind.

He vaguely remembered that he tried his best to kill the four dogs, but why did he faint later?

Where is this?

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard someone say:

"The strong man had a total of eleven injuries on his body, but fortunately, except for the serious injury to his right leg, the others were skin injuries. Xia Guan had already done the bandaging and used the best wound medicine. He fainted, mainly because he lost more blood, and he lost his strength and did not tighten. ”

Someone asked:

"Isn't it tight that your right leg hurts?"

Listen to the one who spoke first, reply:

"My right leg was torn so wide that a piece of flesh almost fell off. Fortunately, it didn't hurt the bones. But you need to have a good life, and if you want to fully recover, it will take two months. ”

Another person said:

"I don't know if that vicious dog is poisonous or not? It is necessary to prevent the wound from becoming inflamed and festering, and even more importantly, to prevent the hydrophobia. ”

The man replied:

"Xia Guan has done anti-inflammatory treatment. It's just that there is no good way to prevent and treat hydrophobia since ancient times, and although the lower officials have also figured out some earthwork, they just don't dare to try it lightly. ”

Someone was obviously anxious and said:

"Once the hydrophobia is obtained, how can there be life? What do you mean by doing that? ”

The human:

"You have to remove saliva and blood near the wound first, and this subordinate has already taken care of it. Then use a high-temperature moxibustion strip to scorch the wound. This one was unbearable, and I didn't know what the actual effect was, so I didn't dare to try it. ”

Long Zixi sensed that someone was whispering a discussion.

After a while, one said:

"It's hard to say, it's better to give it a try!"

Another humane:

"That's what my brother meant. Just take advantage of the fact that Brother Zixi is not awake and tie him up......"

Of course, Long Zixi knew that he suffered from hydrophobia after being bitten by a dog.

Hearing this, he opened his eyes and said loudly:

"No need to tie up, I can hold it!"

Long Zixi felt that he was speaking loudly, but in fact, after being seriously injured, how could he speak so loudly and clearly?

A few people in the room just heard him whisper something and hurried over.

One leaned down and whispered:

"Brother, brother! Are you awake? ”

Long Zixi was even more sober at this time, and when he saw it, it was Huo Yunqi who called him, and next to him were the Fang family brothers and Sacrifice Qiong.

There was another person who did not recognize him, and thought it was a medical officer who had healed his wounds.

Long Zixi wanted to move, but he couldn't.

Taking a breath, he said vigorously:

"No need to tie up, I can hold it!"

This time, everyone heard clearly.

Third Brother Fang was almost in tears:

"Good, good! Then do that scorching method, brother, and you ...... Bear with me! ”

Now, the medical officer went to prepare.

First, he made a stove, and then took out a handful of bamboo strips of different widths from his bag, and roasted a bamboo stick on the fire until the skin turned yellow, and then took it.

The medical officer asked the Fang brothers to help Long Zixi turn over and lie prone on the bed, and the two brothers tightly pressed Long Zixi's arms one by one, and the medical officer began to burn from the wound on his right leg.

Long Zixi felt a heart-piercing pain in the wound of his right leg, and he fainted.

This treatment made Long Zixi suffer a lot.

Long Zixi fainted several times, and woke up in pain several times, and his clothes were already soaked with sweat.

Since eleven wounds had to be treated, the bamboo strips needed to be roasted one by one, and it only took a full hour and a half to finish.

Long Zixi was already like a prostration, and after drinking two bowls of water after roasting, he fell asleep again.

290

I don't know when I woke up again, but my body felt a little lighter.

He wanted to turn his head, but found that his neck was tight, and it turned out to be wrapped in gauze.

He squinted and saw a man lying on the table, thinking he was asleep.

Long Zixi only felt unbearable thirst, and couldn't help but call:

"Water ......"

The man lying on the table woke up suddenly, hurried over, and was overjoyed to see Long Zixi waking up, so he fed the water early.

Longzi watched while drinking in the west, and it turned out that it was Tuyutian who fed him water.

After Tu Yutian fed Long Zixi to drink water, he shouted happily:

"Rest brothers, I'll call them!"

After a while, Tu Yutian led the queen and Jin Gong, Third Brother Fang, and two palace ladies back to the house.

The queen seemed to be sleep-deprived, her eye sockets were black, and she burst into tears when she saw Long Zixi:

"Brother, you, you are suffering!"

Longzi West Road:

"This, where is this? When is it? ”

The queen said:

"This is the harem, and it's the afternoon of your second day of dog fighting. Are you feeling better? ”

Long Zixi strong work relaxed:

"I ...... Isn't that good? That's right, too...... What about the Prince? ”

He had already remembered that the prince was only allowed to be here for three days, and he thought that the deadline had passed.

The queen had stopped her tears and said:

"Eat something, and we'll talk about it later."

Then Gong E handed over a bowl of ginseng soup that had been prepared.

The queen took it, and everyone helped Long Zixi raise the pillow, and the queen fed Long Zixi spoonful by spoon.

Long Zixi was already hungry, so he didn't shirk it, and finished drinking the ginseng soup after a while.

When the queen saw that Long Zixi had finished drinking the ginseng soup, she was in good spirits and said:

"The crown prince has already set off for Shen Guo early this morning. In addition to Brother Jin, the four of them escorted him with Brother Qiong and Fourth Brother Fang. You can rest assured. ”

Long Zixi's spirit improved, and he sighed unconsciously when he remembered all the things in the past few days.

Third Brother Fang wanted to make Long Zixi happy, and said:

"It's been okay for a long time, but you fought five dogs that day, but you scared everyone. Not to mention, if you can beat those five dogs, there is only brother you in the world! ”

Jin Kai also said:

"This time, the brother has greatly raised the prestige of our country, and even Naturba was convinced, and obediently signed the letter of the minister.

"Don't you see, the King of Ghosts is so happy that he can't close his mouth.

"As soon as King You is happy, he will forgive you for your innocence at the moment, and spare the queen's substitution, and let the imperial doctor be at the queen's disposal at any time to treat your injuries.

"It's just that you're tired and injured, but the queen can't bear it, and she just says I'm sorry for Zhuo Ermei."

The queen said:

"King You's happy not only won the five dogs for his brother, but also smiled at the praise."

Longzi West Road:

"Yes, I saw Bao Xi smile before I passed out. Alas, this girl is beautiful, but she doesn't smile in her life, which is also a miracle. ”

The queen said:

"Not really. I heard that since she entered the palace, she has never smiled.

"That day was the first time I laughed.

"Don't say it, her smile is really beautiful, and it makes the king of Youwang dance, and she is happy, which not only forgives you innocence, but also exempts me from the punishment of the queen.

"Alas, I think that the king of Youwang will be ruined sooner or later on this complimented smile!"

Fang Sange said:

"If you smile, the queen and the prince will have a good thing, but it's good to make her laugh a few more times!"

Everyone laughed.

Long Zixi couldn't help laughing, but he pulled the wound again, and couldn't help grinning.

The queen said:

"Alright. The Zixi brothers are just old, and they have to be good at giving birth to and raising. There is time to talk about it again. ”

Everyone was about to get up and say goodbye, when Long Zixi suddenly called:

"Princess ......"

The queen had already gotten up, and hurriedly knelt down to Long Zixi's side:

"What? What's uncomfortable? ”

Long Zixi smiled shyly:

"I ...... I want to hear you play the flute......"

The queen shook her head and said angrily:

"I haven't played the flute for a long time, and you're still thinking about it!"

Let the flute be fetched, try it, and then sit in front of the west bed of Longzi and blow it.

Long Zixi closed his eyes slightly, listening to the melodious flute sound lingering in his ears, and couldn't help but think of the first time he saw the princess playing the flute, his heart was full of affection, and there was a hint of sadness.

Listening to this, Long Zixi suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen, as if he had passed out that day, and couldn't help but "sigh".

The queen stopped playing the flute, and everyone hurriedly inquired, and Long Zixi said that he had abdominal pain.

Jin Gong Road:

"It's not good, you drank the wine of Youwang that day, I'm afraid there is something wrong?"

The queen also frowned:

"Well, I didn't expect that there would be a section on wine, otherwise I would have told you beforehand that I would have said no. I can't say it, I have to ask Brother Jin to find the medical officer again. ”

Jin replied yes and turned to leave.

The queen and Third Brother Fang stayed behind and asked Long Zixi about his abdominal pain with concern.

The medical officer was in a side room next to the palace, and soon followed the golden wedge.

first checked Long Zixi's pulse, and then asked Long Zixi in detail how to deal with the pain.

Longzi West Road:

"It's not very painful, it's not always painful, it's just an occasional pain, but it's very unbearable. In addition, there are occasional nausea and fatigue. ”

The medical officer thought for a moment and shook his head:

"Judging from the pulse, it looks like poisoning. But what kind of poison is in it, it is difficult for the lower officials to determine. and allow the officials to go back to check the medical book, and then consult with several other imperial doctors to make a decision. ”

When the queen heard this, she had no choice but to do so, and said:

"Just ask the Imperial Doctor to go back immediately, as soon as possible. If it is really poisoned, it must not be delayed. ”

How dare the doctor slack off when he has obtained the queen's will?

After about an hour, he came back with an old doctor.

The old lady took the pulse first, then asked about the situation, and then twisted her beard and said slowly:

"According to the old man's thoughts, according to the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing", this is the poison of mercury. The mercury is made out of ore......"

Third Brother Fang couldn't hold back for a long time:

"Don't be verbose, and say that there is a way to resolve it?"

The old lady doctor blushed and said:

"There is a way to resolve it, but the old man can only do some treatment first, and he will be safe for the time being. If you want to remove the roots, you have to find another way. ”

The queen said:

"Then ask the old gentleman to help."

The old lady said:

"This first step requires cleansing of the stomach and intestines, and the hero is afraid that he will have to suffer some hardships."

Long Zixi said in his heart: No matter how big the bitterness is, is there still that scorching bitterness? Sidewalk:

"Although the old gentleman has done it, he can bear with it."

The old gentleman asked people to find a large lump of horse manure and boil it in water.

For a while, the house was filled with the smell of horse dung, and everyone covered their noses.

So let Long Zixi drink the horse dung soup.

Long Zixi closed his eyes, only took a sip, and vomited.

After doing this several times, Long Zixi had already vomited dizzy, torn his intestines and lungs, and his stomach was empty, and his pain was not much better than that roasting.

The old lady doctor saw that it was almost over, and took Long Zixi's pulse again, and nodded:

"Next, only take the egg white three to five times a day for at least 20 days, and it should be fine."

When the queen heard this, she immediately arranged for the palace people to prepare egg whites and serve the dragon in the suit.

Fang Sange said:

"The old gentleman just said that if you want to go to the roots, you have to find another way, I don't know what way?"

The old lady said:

"That's not what the old man can do. In recent years, there has been a living immortal of alchemy in the Western Regions, who calls himself 'Repentant Laosuo', and I heard that he has refined a kind of antidote to frost, which can detoxify the poison of mercury cleanly. To keep this hero intact, he has to be. ”

The queen hurriedly asked:

"Where does the old fairy live?"

The old lady shook her head:

"I heard that he only lives in seclusion in the mountains of Lingzuka, but I don't know where he is."

Everyone thought: I can't say it, I can only wait for Long Zixi's external injuries to heal, and then go to look for him.

After sending off the imperial doctor, the queen remembered:

"Who poisoned this? Surely not. The Ghost King? It doesn't seem like it. If the king wants to harm Long Zixi, why use poison? ”

After thinking about it, I feel that Yin Qiu is still the most suspicious.

This Yin Qiu must have always hated the death of his daughter back then, and he had to put Long Zixi to death.

Thinking of this, I felt that Yin Qiu would not let go of himself.

Secretly thought, you have to strike first, and you should get rid of him a long time ago.

At the moment, I had this thought, but I didn't think of a good way for a while.

291

Since then, Long Zixi has been recuperating from his injuries at the residence of the "Five Elements" and taking the egg white every day.

After more than ten days, it was effective, and the abdominal pain was reduced.

After more than ten days, I no longer have abdominal pain, only occasional palpitations and fatigue.

Except for the injury on the right leg, the injury was basically healed, and there were no symptoms of hydrophobia.

The queen and Third Brother Fang were very happy, but they forced Long Zixi to take egg whites for a few more days.

Na Bao Xi also sent people to visit privately several times, and sent a lot of ginseng, deer, Ganoderma lucidum and other things.

On this day, Long Zixi was sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun.

Suddenly, I saw thick smoke rising from the northwest direction, and I saw Jin Gong coming in in a hurry, and said:

"It's not good, there are soldiers coming to attack Ho Jing!"

At this time, the queen also hurried in, and several people stood in the courtyard looking at the smoke in the distance.

Long Zixi was a little unconvinced:

"It doesn't have to be a soldier to attack, right? Maybe you can't tell where the water is. ”

Jin Gong looked at it for a long time, and said affirmatively:

"This must be the smoke of the Lishan Beacon Tower, and there will be no such big smoke in a normal fire."

It turned out that although the Zhou Dynasty had the world, it did not have many troops, and it was very close to the Rong people in the west.

Since the beginning of King Li, in order to prevent the enemy from attacking, he built a large beacon tower in Lishan, once the enemy came to attack, he lit the beacon fire, and the nearby countries saw the beacon fire, and they would bring troops to rescue.

It's just that King Xuan has never used it so far.

Thinking about it, now that the king of Youwang is immoral, and the world is in chaos, which barbarian clan must see the opportunity to take advantage of it and send troops to attack.

Everyone looked at the smoke and couldn't help but worry.

The queen said:

"Please also ask Brother Jin to go out to find out the news, if there is really an enemy attacking, we must also be prepared in case Hojing is lost."

Jin Gong said yes and turned to leave.

In the afternoon of the next day, Jin Gong returned, but he came back with the four heroes of wood, water, fire, and earth.

What surprised and delighted Long Zixi even more was that Zhuo Ermei was also among them!

When Na Zhuoermei saw Long Zixi, she had already plunged into her arms and couldn't stop crying.

Everyone was very happy to see that Long Zixi was doing well.

Shui Hao Bo Road:

"Hou Ye heard that the prince went to Xishen, so he also went to Xishen, and Miss Zhuo Ermei and the brothers of Zhehu also followed.

"Everyone heard that their brother was injured, and they all came to visit him, but it was the first time that Hou Ye arrived in Xishen, how could he leave casually?

"Miss Zhuo Mei is going to come with you no matter what."

Long Zixi comforted Zhuo Ermei and said:

"Madame, don't be sad. Don't you think it's good to be a husband? Let's listen to Brother Jin and talk about business. ”

Zhuo Ermei put away her tears, saluted the queen again, and sat down next to Long Zixi.

The four heroes told the queen that they had sent the prince to Xishen safely, because they went to Deng and Lu in the middle, and they were delayed for some time, so they only came back today.

Jin Gong waited for the four of them to finish speaking, and said:

"I went out to inquire about the news on the orders of the queen, and met four brothers and Miss Zhuo Ermei on the way. It's really infuriating! ”

Mu Jin continued:

"Isn't it? On the way back, our brothers also saw the smoke of the beacon tower, and they only said that the enemy was attacking.

"At the moment, the process was speeding up, but I ran into the army of the Xiyu Kingdom, and they were rushing back from Lishan.

"When I asked, I realized, where are the enemy soldiers?

But it was the beacon fire that the king deliberately lit for Bo to praise and smile.

"The nearby Zheng, Wei, Liang, and Jin also sent troops, but when they arrived at Lishan, they saw Youwang, Bao Xi and those traitors, sitting on the top of the mountain, eating, drinking and laughing.

Seeing the soldiers coming in a hurry, he couldn't help but be angry and laugh when he knew the truth, this is not too much deception!

"This Phantom King, hey, it's really getting more and more mediocre!"

Jin Gong Road:

"I found out in the next investigation, but it was Bao Xi who returned to the normal state of having a smile since the last time the West brothers laughed at the dog.

Every time the king thinks of Bao Xi's smiling face, he can't help himself, and he thinks of various ways to get Bao Xi to laugh again, but it is useless.

"You said that this Youwang is only stupid, and he actually made a decree, saying that anyone who can make a smile will be rewarded.

"There is also the treacherous man Yu Shi's father, who gave King You such an idea of the princes of the Beacon Theater, and Yin Qiu also said yes.

"Alas, how can the princes play casually?"

When the queen heard this, her eyebrows frowned:

"I expect this to happen again, but it's only three, it's really in danger, I'm afraid there will be no one to save it! No, I have to make a statement to the King of You, how can I be so childish? ”

Jin Gong persuaded:

"Don't worry, Queen. Are there no loyal ministers in the court? I heard that the doctor Zheng Boyou went to Lishan to persuade him, but he was reprimanded by King Youwang and almost lost his office. What is the use of the queen if she goes? ”

The queen thought about it too, but she was still unwilling, and secretly thought of countermeasures.

Seeing that the atmosphere was silent, Huoyun Qi said:

"I beg your pardon to say that we know that the queen is faithful to her kingdoms, but can you do these things alone? Women don't interfere in politics, so they just wait and see what happens. ”

Third Brother Fang also said:

"Let's talk about Brother Zixi. Looking at the appearance of the brother, the trauma should be completely healed?

"I remember that the old lady doctor said last time that if you want to cure the poison of mercury, you have to go to the Western Regions to find that living immortal 'repentant old man'.

"In my opinion, there is nothing else to do at the moment anyway, why don't you invite Brother Zixi to go to the Western Regions?"

And when they heard this, they all said yes.

After much deliberation, it was decided that Long Zixi, Zhuo Ermei, Huo Yunqi, and Fang Sange would go together.
