Chapter Twenty-Three: A Sleepless Night

When everyone was brought back to the pavilion, it was already past the unitary hour, and this time two lives were lost, and so many people were unconscious, involving the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War, which alarmed the Huainan County Guard and brought people here. After accepting the questioning, and checking the injuries of everyone, the county guard calmed a few words, leaving a few doctors and soldiers for the palm to send before leaving. Zhang Li did not mention Zhang Xiao who was taken away by the masked man, after all, it involved Qianliang and the Jin Dynasty, and the political situation between the north and the south was stalemate. But according to the current situation, let's deal with this place first, I can only pray that those people will not embarrass Zhang Xiao and let him return safely as soon as possible.

The palm of the slap has been running around, and he is no longer tired. Zhangli asked him to go back to his room to rest as soon as possible, and he moved into Wang Shao's room. The lotus man said that he could wake up in an hour or two, but two hours had passed, and Wang Shao was still lying there with his eyes closed, and the doctor also said that the pulse was not abnormal. Palm sat on the edge of the bed, and a feeling of guilt rose in his heart, after all, he was the main target of this operation, and he actually retreated, causing others to be injured, what is the difference between this and losing the battle? Although it has not been a winning army all these years, it has not been defeated by two ghosts. He didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but this time, he saw with his own eyes that people who had been dead for hundreds of years beat them so badly. If it weren't for those masked people, I'm afraid that even him would have died in the grave by now. Interlaced like mountains, it seems that visiting the grave is far more dangerous than fighting.

Thinking about it, tiredness hit, and the palm hat fell asleep against the side of the bed unconsciously.

The gully carried Luozi on his back, Mengzi sandwiched Zhang Xiao, and the four people and three horses galloped all the way. Back in the courtyard, Yumeko immediately ordered someone to boil hot water. Mengzi checked Miko first, basically he was not hurt by the black fog, although Zhang Xiao was unconscious, his breathing was normal, and he had no worries about his life for the time being, and his injuries would not be cured for a while.

Gully and Uncle gently put Luozi on the bed, peeled off the bloody clothes little by little, and the clothes had already been torn by the golden light charm countless openings. Don't look at it just light, but its force is as sharp as metal, and it is very fast, and the wounds are deep and thin, intertwined. In some places, the blood has coagulated, and it is no longer possible to tear hard, so Mengzi first dipped cotton yarn in warm water, moistened the clothes of the coagulated part, and then uncovered it little by little, and blood oozed out of the uncovered place. After a while, a basin of water became red, then a basin of clear, then red, and then three basins of water, and then the upper body of Lhotse was completely naked, and the blood was shocking.

Although they have been together for many years, it is the first time they have seen this perfect body, and it is still in this situation that the hearts of several people have already been distressed, especially the uncle. Miko keeps the charcoal fire in the fire pit in the house, and the door of the house that is usually wide open is also closed, and it is also important to keep warm for people who have lost too much blood. After half a day of rice and water not entering, the gully got up and ordered someone to prepare dinner. The uncle helped Lhotse, and Mengzi gave Lhotes medicine little by little.

Luo Zi has been cultivating the Xuanmen since he was a teenager, paying attention to light body and strengthening his bones, his qi and blood are pure and abnormal, and it is said that he can even drink to save the lives of others in times of crisis, so he can fix the corpse and suppress the evil in the tomb. After applying the medicine, he wrapped his upper body with layers of gauze, and Yin Yin's blood was still faintly oozing in some places. The uncle was afraid that he would press the wound after he lay down, so he let him half-lean on his arms.

Mengzi wiped the sweat from his forehead and got up to look at Zhang Xiao. At this time, the gully had already walked in with dinner. Mengzi asked, "Is the red date angelica soup ready?" Mengzi unbuttoned Zhang Xiao's clothes, and took off the soft armor inside, only to see a palm-sized black mark on the white and tender chest. Yuzi fed a few mouthfuls and came over and asked, "How is this person?" Mengzi frowned and said, "I haven't cured the corpse soul qi either, so I can only do my best." Tonight is getting late, and I will renew his life first, and then I will think of a cure tomorrow. After speaking, he took a pill, opened Zhang Xiao's mouth, and stuffed it in.

Miko had taken off her sharkskin glove stained with corpse poison and threw it into the basin where the potion had been placed, and the water immediately turned cloudy blue-black. He showed a pair of hands covered with strange lines, and Yumeko checked his pulse again, and gave him two more poison pills, and it should be no big problem to breathe for two days. The three of them grabbed a few mouthfuls of food and asked his uncle to eat too, how could he have the heart to eat, and shook his head. The three of them knew his mood at the moment, and they didn't force it. helped Zhang Xiao and went back to the room to sleep.

If there is only one lone lamp left in the big room, and two half-seated and half-leaning figures. It was the first time to be so close to the person I admired, but there was no joy and excitement, on the contrary, my heart was full of worry and concern. In a daze, he felt a little hot on his body, and when his uncle opened his eyes, he found that the heat source came from Luozi in his arms, and he took out a free hand and touched Luozi's forehead, which was hot. Shocked, he immediately pulled a rope on the side of the bed, and the other side of the rope was connected to the head of the bed in each room. Each person has such a rope next to their bed, and a bell is hung to prevent them from calling each other in the event of an accident.

In an instant, Yumeko and Razi hurried over with their clothes on, and Lhotse was in high heat. In the middle of the night, there were no herbs at hand, so I could only wait until dawn tomorrow to go to the city to grab the medicine, and now the only way was to dissipate heat outside the body. The water that had just been brought from the well in the courtyard was cold to the bone, and Yumeko wet the cloth and put it on Lhotse's forehead. Wait for the cloth towel to be warm, soak it and apply it again. Seeing that the operation was simple, the uncle said, "You two go back and rest, I'll just make it myself." Go into the city early tomorrow to grab medicine. The two nodded and went back to their rooms.

At first, the uncle also used a cloth towel, but later he thought it was too troublesome, so he simply put one hand in the cold water to cool down, and then put it on Luozi's forehead, cheeks, and neck, helping him transfer the heat to his hands little by little. Where the skin touched, it felt smooth and delicate, but there was no distraction, I just wanted him to wake up soon.

As soon as the morning light was faint, the three of them got up. At this time, Lhotse's body temperature receded slightly, but it was still very hot. The uncle didn't close his eyes all night, still maintaining a half-gripping posture, and his eyes were a little dull. Gully and Miko insisted on replacing him, so he reluctantly went back to his room to rest, and told him to go and grab the medicine as soon as possible.

When Wang Shao woke up, he saw the palm hat asleep on the edge of the bed. Did he stay here all night? As soon as he got up and moved, he woke up, and hurriedly helped him and asked, "How do you feel?" "It's okay." Wang Shao only felt that his body was fluttering, and his head was still a little dizzy, but he didn't feel strange in other places.

"What the hell happened, how did we get out?" Wang Shao had no idea what was happening in the tomb. Zhang Li told him about the events of yesterday in the tomb, and the more Wang Shao listened, his eyes widened, and finally he slapped the bed with annoyance.

"Luckily, someone rescued us, and we don't know who saved us. In addition, is that tomb really Cao Chong's? Why are people who have been dead for hundreds of years still so vicious? And what is the golden book that those people took away? How could they go to the tomb so coincidentally, as if they knew the sinister inside. Palm said the doubts in his heart. After more than ten days of getting along, Zhangli has determined that Wang Shao is knowledgeable and knowledgeable. Wang Shao was still immersed in the sense of loss that he was bewitched, and did not listen to his question. Suddenly, Wang Shao asked: "Where is that little prince Zhang now?, will there be danger?" Zhang Li remembered that Zhang Xiao had been taken away all night, but the person who took him away didn't know who it was, if something really happened, it would be a big trouble. He didn't return overnight, and his subordinates must be looking for him today, and they have to find a way to find him. But where can I find it?

When he was worried, there was a knock on the door, and a voice came from outside the door: "Young master, are you here?" The palm pushed the door in, and seeing that Wang Shao had woken up, Shi Li said, "Is Wang Gongzi okay?" Wang Shao nodded. Zhangli continued: "Someone just passed the word that that Zhang Xiaogongzi was healing at his place, so there is no need to worry about it for the time being. As soon as he heard the message, he raised his head and asked, "Who is it, and where is it now?"

"I don't know who it was, but it was a little beggar on the street who delivered the letter, and he said that someone gave him a few pieces of bread and asked him to pass on the message. Palm said.

"Then does he remember who it is?" asked Wang Shao.

"I didn't see my face clearly, but I was just a person in a blue dress. ”

It seems that it was the person who took Zhang Xiao away yesterday, and since he rescued them, there should be no ill will towards Zhang Xiao. At least there is a message, and when the people in the front cool ask, they can deal with it for the time being.
