Chapter Seventy-Six: Wakagi Flower
Qi Wei, who was waiting beside him, kept staring at Zhao Wanning, and when he saw that the situation was wrong, he quickly got up and chased her.
But the horse was frightened, and ran wildly, and scurried about in the woods like a fly without a head.
Zhao Wanning was so frightened that she trembled, and the horse desperately shook off her body, wanting to throw Zhao Wanning off her body. Zhao Wanning knew that if she was accidentally thrown off the horse, she would definitely be injured.
When she was a child, when Zhenbei Hou taught her to ride a horse at the royal horse farm, she once saw a prince who was accidentally thrown off the horse without grasping the reins, and was trampled by the horse's hooves, and was seriously injured, and heard that several ribs were broken.
Zhao Wanning desperately grabbed the reins, praying that Zhao Wangshu could save her as soon as possible.
Qi Qi, who followed behind, jumped a few times, shuttling on the trunk of the dead tree with the help of light power.
"County Lord! Watch out! ”
Seeing that the horse was carrying Zhao Wanning through a thorn, Qi Shen hurriedly spoke.
Zhao Wanning pressed her body tightly against the horse at the moment, not daring to slack off at all.
The sound of the wind in my ears and the chaotic pace of horses under my feet.
Qi Zhen also wanted to find the right time and jumped on horseback. But the horse was very manic, and ran freely in this low dead wood, and Qi Yi couldn't find the opportunity at all.
Zhao Wangshu was still far away, and when he heard Zhao Wanning's shout, he immediately set off to save her.
She also saw Qi Zhen, who had been following Zhao Wanning, but she didn't let down her guard at all.
This horse has been with her for a long time and has a gentle temper, so she is relieved to use this horse to teach Zhao Wanning.
But at this moment, as if stimulated, the horse lost its mind, and ran wildly through the woods.
When things go wrong, there must be demons.
Zhao Wangshu raised his eyes and looked at Qi Wei, who was following the running horse but didn't know where to start, thoughtfully.
This horse was normal for her and Zhao Wanning to ride last night, and today it is fodder for no follow-up, and she has never been in contact with outsiders in the Baiyun Temple.
Only Qi Chu is the most suspicious.
Just now, she didn't have something to call her, so she went for a while, thinking that Qi Yi was also a person who had been on the battlefield, and he was also the captain of the Imperial Forest Army who was responsible for protecting them, so she must have looked at Zhao Wanning as well.
Unexpectedly, the horse suddenly became irritable and out of control.
At this moment, Zhao Wanning is still on horseback, and it is not the time to be held accountable.
"Cold Sword!" Zhao Wangshu shouted.
The horse was stunned for a moment when he heard his name, and his steps froze.
Qi Chuan found a gap and immediately leaned down and flew down, trying to force his way on the horse's back.
It's a pity that the horse didn't wait for Qi Zhen to approach, so he immediately galloped again.
Zhao Wangshu could see it clearly. She said urgently: "Retreat!" ”
Qi Zhen still has a good eye, although he doesn't know why the eldest princess doesn't let him continue to follow the horse, he also knows that the eldest princess will definitely not hurt Zhao Wanning. Since she asked him to retreat, there must be a reason for her.
Zhao Wangshu called the name of the horse a few more times, chased it and Zhao Wanning and disappeared into the depths of the woods.
Although Qi Yi was worried about the safety of the two nobles, he also found a trace of strangeness.
When Zhao Wangshu called the horse's name for the first time, it was obvious that the horse had the momentum to stop, he originally thought it was a good opportunity to save Zhao Wanning, but he didn't want him to get close to it, and the horse was frightened again and began to run wildly.
Was it because he had stimulated the horses?
Qi Chu was a little stunned.
A quarter of an hour later.
Zhao Wangshu rode a horse and came back with Zhao Wanning.
Qi Zheng waited anxiously, and as soon as he saw that the two of them had come back safely, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "County Lord, are you okay?" ”
The horse looked frightened again, and Zhao Wangshu hurriedly grabbed the reins and took a step back.
Qi Zhen didn't dare to move forward any further, he carefully retreated to a safe position.
Zhao Wangshu helped Zhao Wanning get off the horse.
Zhao Wanning's face was pale at the moment, her hair was wet with sweat, and after getting off the horse, Zhao Wangshu helped her to sit down in the pavilion.
Wuji led the horse back to the temple.
Qi Wei stood beside him at a loss.
"Do you still want to learn how to ride a horse?" Zhao Wangshu asked.
"Naturally, you have to learn." Zhao Wanning took a deep breath, and then continued: "I know that this horse is frightened today, so it will be like this. ”
Zhao Wangshu didn't show it on his face, but just raised his hand to stroke her back.
She knew that Zhao Wanning was not someone who gave up easily.
After Zhao Wanning rested, Zhao Wangshu took her back to Baiyun Temple.
After walking a few steps, seeing that there was no one behind him, Zhao Wangshu turned around and saw Qi Chuan following a few steps behind with a look of self-blame.
Looking at him like that, he must have only reached something.
Zhao Wangshu said in a loud voice: "Captain Qi, don't you want to protect the safety of the two of us?" ”
When Qi Wei heard Zhao Wangshu's words, he immediately raised his legs to follow.
When I returned to Baiyun Temple, Master Wuji was already waiting in the meditation room.
As soon as Qi Shen entered the door, he knelt in front of Zhao Wanning and Zhao Wangshu, and blamed himself: "The minister's poor protection has frightened the county lord, and I hope the eldest princess will punish him!" ”
Zhao Wanning waved his hand: "It's because I'm not good at riding, and I can't complain about Captain Qi, you don't have to blame yourself." ”
Although she doesn't like Qi Chu because of her divorce, she won't wronged people at will.
Master Wuji brought her a cup of hot soup and said, "This is the snow lotus tea boiled by the little monk, the donor uses some of it, which can suppress the convulsion and stop sweating." ”
Zhao Wanning folded his hands and said, "Thank you, master." ”
She took a sip of hot soup, and a warm current was instantly injected into her body, which was hot and energetic.
Zhao Wangshu didn't speak, and Qi Yu was still kneeling on the ground.
Zhao Wangshu glanced at Master Wuji, and Master Wuji nodded.
"Get up." Zhao Wangshu said: "Today's matter has not been clarified, and you don't have to blame yourself." ”
Master Wuji circled around Qi Shen twice, and finally his gaze stopped on Qi Shen's sword.
Qi Zhen was equipped with a sword on his waist, and the ruby inlaid on the hilt was absolutely extraordinary at first glance, but the pink sword spike was a little abrupt.
"Lord Qi, can I borrow your sword to take a look?"
Qi Zhen didn't speak, calmly untied the sword and handed it to Master Wuji.
Master Wuji carefully examined the sword, and he picked up the pink spike and sniffed it in front of his nose.
Qi Zhen's heart jumped, this sword spike was given to him when he rescued Zhao Chen'an, and it was woven by Zhao Chen'an himself, is it possible that there is a problem?
Master Wuji closed his eyes and frowned, as if he had encountered something incomprehensible.
After a while, he opened his eyes and drew his sword, which was so sharp that it could be broken.
That is before Qi Shen went to the battlefield, Zhao Wanning to the town of Beihou transferred to Qi Shen's sword, named Long Yin, the sword body engraved with the word "Dragon Yin" ancient text, and the tiger roaring jade pendant was originally a pair.
Qi Chuan took it to the front line to kill the enemy, the sword was stained with blood, and even the ruby on the hilt seemed to be shining with a trace of blood.
Master Wuji closed his sword and sighed lightly.
Wu Ji returned the sword to Qi Chuan, and then said, "The poor monk knows what the problem is. ”
Zhao Wangshu and Qi Zheng immediately looked over.
Zhao Wanning, who was only sipping snow lotus tea one by one, looked confused, she only knew how to hold on to the reins tightly when she was trapped on horseback, and where else could she care.
Zhao Wangshu held her hand and motioned with his eyes for her to listen to Master Wuji's explanation.
"Dare to ask where the sword spike of the Qi Shi came from?"
Qi Zhen glanced at Zhao Wanning reflexively, he didn't know if Zhao Wanning knew the source of this sword spike, he seemed to have gone to Zhao Wanning with this sword after returning to Beijing, but he really didn't care about Zhao Wanning's opinion, and he didn't pay attention to her expression at that time.
Master Wuji was still waiting for his answer, and Qi Chuan had no choice but to whisper: "It was given by an old man." ”
He cursed himself in his heart that he should throw away the sword spike.
"This sword spike has been tampered with." Master Wuji said leisurely.
"What?" Qi Shen was surprised: "I have never left this sword, how can anyone move the sword spike under my nose?" ”
"That's to do it before sending you away." Zhao Wanning said idly.
Qi Yi was a little incredulous, the sword spike that Zhao Chen'an gave him as a thank you gift had done it before giving it to him, who else was the person who did it besides Zhao Chen'an?
However, why did Zhao Chenan attack him?
Without waiting for Qi to think clearly, Master Wuji continued: "This sword spike has been soaked in Wakaki flower juice, and long-term wearing will affect consciousness. ”
Qi Zhen said: "But I have been wearing it for a long time, but I have not found any influence." ”
"Your sword has been stained with blood, and it has a bad spirit. This sword follows you, and there is a vicious qi suppression, and the medicinal effect of the Ruomu flower juice is restrained a little. ”
"But if the influence of the wood flower juice is extremely strong, if it is only used alone, your evil qi may be able to suppress a few points, and it will have no effect on you, I am afraid that someone will use the bloody evil method of this sword to cast some evil magic on you."
As soon as he heard the evil art, Qi Li immediately shuddered.
"You don't feel the impact for a while, you may have been suppressed by that evil energy, or you may have been alienated by the influence of evil magic, but you don't realize it. For the sake of the day, you'd better take off this spike first. ”
Hearing this, Qi Chuan hurriedly took off the pink sword spike and threw it on the ground.
"Today, this horse was affected by the sap of the Wakaki flower on this sword spike, so it lost its consciousness and ran wildly." Master Wuji explained.
Without waiting for Zhao Wangshu to ask, he continued: "The eldest princess doesn't have to worry, the poor monk has already fed the horse with medicine, and when the medicine passes, the horse will return to normal." ”
Zhao Wangshu bowed slightly, she naturally believed that there was no success.
Qi Shen suddenly asked, "Master, if it is as you said, if it is not suppressed by the evil qi on this sword, if I am affected by this Ruomu flower juice, will I lose my mind and become crazy like this horse?" ”
Master Wuji nodded, and he said, "This Ruomu Flower Juice is extraordinary, it will invade people's nerves and disturb their minds. Because of this, the Western Witch Clan will use this to perform witchcraft. ”
"When the poor monk traveled all over the world, he heard that someone used this medicine to perform forbidden arts, which can directly control the consciousness and even feelings of the person being cast, so as to do bad things."
Qi was shocked. He hurriedly asked, "May I ask the master, is there a solution to this forbidden technique?" ”
Master Wuji shook his head and said, "This secret technique of the Western Realm refuses to be passed on, and the poor monk has only heard about it, but has not inquired, and he doesn't know what the solution is, so he doesn't dare to say anything." ”
"If the donor wants to know if he has been banned, I'm afraid he still needs to ask the person who gave you the sword spike."
Qi Zhen's body involuntarily took two steps back, and he couldn't be sure if he had fallen for this rumored forbidden technique. Compared with this, he was more worried about why Zhao Chen'an gave him this sword spike that was soaked in the juice of the Ruomu flower?
"Isn't this a good solution?" Zhao Wanning couldn't help but say loudly: "You just go and ask the person who gave you the sword spike if he gave you a forbidden technique." ”
"Speaking of which, there doesn't seem to be a Ruomu flower in the territory of Da Zhou, right? I don't know where your friend got it. Zhao Wanning was thoughtful, she asked curiously, "Who gave you this sword spike?" If you don't want to ask, we can start with the person's identity. ”
"Ruomuhua grows in the western realm, and there are many tribes in the western realm, and they have always been in their own affairs, and they have no contact with my Great Zhou."
"You are a great Zhou general, how can you accept a gift from others?"
