Chapter 70: Miko returns from injury
Chapter 70: Miko returns from injury
For the next three days, there was still no news from Miko, and after a day of bustling room, the silence returned to it. The four of them were calm on the surface, each doing their own thing, but in their hearts they all knew that the uneasiness was increasing dramatically every day.
Luo Zi locked himself in the room, pacing repeatedly, and he began to reflect on whether he had done something wrong and should not have sent Yazi to Langya. He said to himself that Miko would definitely return without incident, wait, wait for two more days, if Miko hasn't come back yet, he will definitely go to Langya in person.
On the morning of the fourth day, it was not yet dawn. Yumeko wakes up early, he is used to picking some dewy flowers and plants in the yard every day, and today he wants to pick some fresh mint leaves to prepare tea for everyone. The courtyard door suddenly sounded a gentle knock on the door, pop, pop. The sound was not loud, but the shot was very rapid. Mengzi was startled, and immediately became alert, because this room, outsiders thought it was an abandoned house for many years, and it was a private house, no one had ever come, and his own people also entered the courtyard through the bamboo forest through the dark passage, who would knock on the door today?
Mengzi gently put down the dustpan in her hand, tiptoed to the courtyard gate, and listened attentively, the knocking on the door had stopped. He waited a little longer, but the knock on the door didn't sound again. Yumeko gently pulled out the latch of the door, flashed her body to the side, pulled the door open a crack with her hand, and looked out sideways. The door was empty, and when I looked down, I saw a large long package on the steps, trapped by a mat and hemp rope. Yumeko looked out again alertly, and there was no one around, and there were no footprints on the dirt road not far away.
Yumeko hurriedly closed the courtyard door and went back to the house to call out for the gully. Gully looked at the package, and hurriedly asked Mengzi to call Uncle Luozi over, and with a strong hand, he picked up the mat and brought it into the courtyard. The mat was not heavy in my hand, and it felt a little soft.
The four of them surrounded the thing in the courtyard and looked at it for a while, and Lhotse motioned for the gully to open it. The mat was untied, and there was a coarse cloth wrapped in it, and the cloth oozed red. The gully hurriedly untied the cloth, and the cloth was wrapped in Miko, who had been masked off.
I saw that Yako, who was originally thin, was even weaker when she was half-curled up at the moment, her eyes were closed, her face was pale, her lips were blue, and her hands and feet were cold. Mengzi hurriedly stepped forward to test her breath, checked her pulse again, and then nodded at Luozi, meaning that the person was still alive. Several people hurriedly carried him to the bed in the room, and the gully untied his black shark skin armor, which was invulnerable to soft armor that had been cut several times by something, and the red stain on the cloth was the blood from the wound that penetrated through the soft armor. Yumeko carefully examined Miko's wounds, a total of eight sizes, three on the back, two on the chest, one on the left leg, one on the left and right arms, the wound basically stopped bleeding, the wound was very deep no matter how big or small, looking at the shape, it should be a knife, and the blade was extremely sharp. The person who can slash Yako, who is extremely agile, is extremely fast, and the person who should use the knife is extremely fast and powerful, from splitting the sharkskin soft armor to entering the flesh, it is done in one go, cleanly.
At this time, the uncle handed Lhotse a note and a small packet of things, and said, "These are stuffed in soft armor." The note reads crookedly: "Poisoned, not dead." ”
The gully asked, "Aren't these external injuries fatal?"
Yumeko looked down at the wound and said, "It looks very serious on the outside, but it doesn't hurt the internal organs, it's not fatal, unconscious or poisoned, or it has lost too much blood." However, the chance of face poisoning is greater, but the blood is not blackened. As he spoke, he took out a very thin silver hairpin from his head and rubbed it against the stained blood of Miko's wound, and the silver hairpin turned black in an instant. "It's so poisonous, the blood doesn't change color. But if you don't know what poison is, you can't detoxify the symptoms. He shook his head and said helplessly.
Mengzi asked the gully to bring some warm sugar water to Miko, and asked the uncle to pick up some futon and cover Miko to keep warm. People who have lost blood have low body temperatures. I used a soft cloth to wipe the wound with hot water.
"Find a way to wake him up, maybe he knows what he's poisoned in. After Luozi finished speaking, he picked up the note and read it carefully, and after reading it, he leaned under his nose and sniffed it. Then I went to unpack the bag again. There were a few brocade bags in the small bag, and the moment he saw the bags, a hint of imperceptibility flashed in Lhotse's eyes. He didn't open the bag any further, instead placing it on the floor. He went to see the unconscious Miko.
With the help of Lhotzi, Yumeko applied gold medicine to Yazi's wound, bandaged it carefully, and applied silver needles to Yazi's human center, sun, and navel, hoping to cause Miko to wake up. But the needle was pierced for a long time, and there was still no response.
Luo Zi suddenly remembered something, reached out and tried to tap a few places on Miko's body, Miko's body twitched, and then gently exhaled a mouthful of gossamer-like breath. After a while, Miko slowly opened her eyes, and when he saw that it was several of his brothers, his lips moved, as if he wanted to open his mouth to say something, but no sound came out.
Lhotzi picked up the note and showed it to Miko. Miko blinked slowly, meaning that she agreed with the statement on the note that she had indeed been poisoned.
Mengzi hurriedly asked, "Do you know what kind of poison you have?"
Miko shook her head slightly, meaning that she didn't know.
"And where did you get the poison?" asked Yumeko eagerly.
Miko closed her eyes, not knowing whether she didn't want to say it or if she was physically exhausted.
Lhotse said to Mengzi: "Find a way to continue your life." Yumeko nodded, and went to prepare the medicine with the gully.
The uncle helped Miko cover the quilt and saw a few bags thrown on the ground. He walked over and opened them one by one, one bag of some soil, one bag of three plants, and one bag of half a bag of warm sand. There was also a bulging bag, which actually contained a small jar, and in the jar were several small flying insects.
The uncle showed a few bags to Luozi, who glanced at it lightly, only took the jar containing the worms, and said to the uncle: "You can keep the rest, it's for you." ”
Uncle Zi was stunned: "Who gave it to me?" He looked at Luozi, looking confused, could it be that Luozi was surprised to know who sent it?
Luo Zi himself opened his mouth and said the answer: "Xiahou Ti." ”
"Xiahou Ti? How do you know it's him? Isn't he trapped in the bamboo forest and there is no more news?" the uncle said this name to Luozi, which was very unexpected.
"These bags have the same pattern as the bags of tobacco in Xiahou Ti. ”
"I see, so you assume it's him. ”
"It's more than that. Mengzi couldn't wake up Miko just now, which reminded me of Xiahou Ti's technique of sealing the acupoint for himself in the cave to stop bleeding, so I tried it, and sure enough, it was solved. It seems that it was him, or someone related to him, who sealed Miko's acupuncture points and stopped the bleeding for him. ”
"So he sent Miko?"
"I don't know if Yako was sent by him, I just know that it has something to do with him. ”
"Maybe it was his people who injured Miko, and he stopped the bleeding for Miko and sent Miko again. ”
"There is a possibility, but Xiahou Ti said that he is illiterate, and this note should not have been written by him. I think I might have guessed who sent Miko here. Whether we are friends or foes, we have to go through this experience to find out. Lhotse said, a chill in his eyes.
"You go and get ready, and we'll leave when it's dawn. ”
"Where are we going?" asked the uncle.
"Huainan Palace. Maybe someone there will tell us something. ”
