556. Poisoned outside the city
At dusk, Zou Bin and Zhuo Ya pushed Du Bu to the Luo River unconsciously, and several people began to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Luo River.
Du did not forget at this time, and couldn't help but read a few sentences from Cao Zhi's "Luo Shen Fu":
"Floating on the long river and forgetting to return, thinking and increasing admiration. The night is sleepless, and the frost comes to the dawn. Command the servant and drive, and I will return to the south road. ”
Zou Bin smiled:
"Du Gongzi, you have such a good mentality, you still have the heart to chant poetry!"
Du did not forget to sigh:
"You can see the beauty of the Luo River, but I can only hear it, and the poetry may be the only thing I can confide in. ”
Zhuo Ya Tidu did not forget to tidy up the long hair that was blown by the evening breeze:
"Brother Du, we understand your mood at this time, you don't have to care about the vicious words of those people, since they don't want you to live, you should live well to show them and kill them. ”
Du Bu did not forget to raise his hand slightly and pointed ahead:
"Zhuoya, look, this dusk sunset is so beautiful, I feel it!"
Zoya nodded:
"Yes, the sunset is infinitely better, but it's just near dusk!"
Du did not forget to sigh again:
"If only I could keep this sunset forever. ”
Zou Bin says:
Just like a poem, the desert is lonely, and the sun sets on the long river, just like a poem, the long river will have to swallow up the sunset sooner or later, and none of us can avoid the day when we are swallowed up, so cherishing every day of life is the most important, no matter what the future holds. ”
Du did not forget to show a smile:
"I hope that people will last a long time, thousands of miles together, even if I am gone, I hope that you around me can live happily and happily for the rest of your life. ”
Zhuoya says:
"Brother Du, you say this kind of thing again, I believe that you will be able to recover from the past, and you yourself must give yourself a little confidence. ”
Zou Bin said hello to Zhuoya with some sadness at this time and walked away.
Du did not forget to smile bitterly:
"I understand my own physical condition, I am indeed worse day by day, just like Sister Mo'er said, I may only live for more than twenty days at most, and this eye has been ** blinded, and the thigh meridians have also been pierced ......!"
As he spoke, Du Yi couldn't help but shed tears from the corners of his eyes.
Zhuo Ya hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief for Du and did not forget to wipe it:
"Brother Du, haven't you experienced life and death so many times before? Why be so sad as today, I believe you will definitely recover, because you are a good person, and you are also a big hero, I believe that God will not be such a good person to you, so unfair. ”
Du did not forget to chant again:
"The mountain reflects the slanting sun and the sky receives the water, the grass is ruthless, and it is even outside the slanting sun!
Zhuoya then said:
"It seems that Brother Du, you and Cao Zijian also cherish each other?"
Du did not forget to reply:
"I admire ancient and modern poets the most, Cao Zijian is the first, followed by Li Taibai. ”
Zhuoya smiled lightly:
"What about the lyricist? Could it be Fan Zhongyan?"
Du Chu shook his head:
"The lyricist, I admire the queen Li Yu and Li Qingzhao the most. ”
Zhuoya says:
"I have also heard the story of Li Qingzhao, a talented woman in the Song Dynasty, who is indeed a talented woman who does not let her eyebrows go. ”
Du did not forget to reply:
"Yes, it's a pity that although her husband Zhao Mingcheng is a talented person, he is ridiculous but he became a deserter, which has attracted the spurning of countless literati in later generations, but it has also achieved Li Qingzhao, a talented woman, Gao Jie Liangyi!"
Zhuoya replied:
"Yes, but everything in this world has cause and effect, just like you said about the queen Li Yu, a good emperor, don't think about governing the country well, all the time is spent in the harem beauties and poetry composition, and it is inevitable that the country will be taken prisoner. So I believe that Brother Du, you will definitely be favored by God. ”
Du did not forget to reply:
"I know!"
Then the subject changed:
"Zoya, I've been wondering who the guy who is helping me in the city today will be, but I can't guess who it is. ”
Zhuoya says:
"After all, Brother Du, there are so many people you know, there will always be someone to help you, since it is hiding and unwilling to come out, it must also have its own difficulties. ”
Du did not forget to reply:
"Yes, so I've been suspecting that Sisi is not dead, and she is the one who is angry for me in the city today. ”
Zhuoya smiled:
"Perhaps, but I haven't met Miss Sisi, I think she must be a good girl to you, right?"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Yes, we met in a valley near Erhai Lake in Dali......!"
In this way, Duan Sisi and his past were simply told to Zhuoya.
Just as he was talking about playing with Duan Sisi, himself and Shao Yuanying near Longhu Mountain, a crisp voice came from this time:
"Brother Du, do you know, you're about to find me and Sister Bai!"
At first glance, it turned out that Mo Er came over with the white lotus, and the sky had begun to slowly darken at this time.
After feeling the breath of the two of them approaching him, Du did not forget to ask:
"Are you alright?"
The White Lotus replied:
"Of course it's okay, we can still come here to find you?"
Then he asked:
"Brother Du, are you really not worried about me and Mo'er?"
Du did not forget to say:
"Because I believe in you!"
Mo Er said at this time:
"I don't think he believes it, he must think that we are not important, doesn't he have Miss Zhuoya here to accompany him now? ”
White Lotus lightly:
"Mo'er, I know that Brother Du is not such a person, you misunderstood him, even if he is worried about us? What can he do now, can he still rush into the yamen and rescue us like before?"
Mo Er touched his head:
"It seems to be the same thing. ”
At this time, Zou Bin walked over with a large bag of things in his arms, and asked a few people with a smile:
"Do you eat dates?"
Then he opened the cloth in his arms, and it was full of ripe jujubes.
Mo Er came over first, took a date and ate it, and said:
"It's so sweet, this date is so delicious. ”
Then he handed one to White Lotus and Zhuoya respectively:
"You can eat and try it too. ”
After Zhuoya took a bite, she asked Zou Bin:
"Brother Zou, where did you pick this date? It's quite similar to our dates in the Western Regions. ”
Zou Bin replied:
"I walked by the river alone and happened to meet an old man selling dates, so I bought some and brought them back for you to eat!"
Then he asked the White Lotus:
"Are you okay with Miss Mo'er?"
The White Lotus replied:
"If Miss Mo and I can't even deal with a faint official who is greedy for a female hammer, how dare we come out to walk in the rivers and lakes?"
Zou Bin smiled:
"That's good, that's good, we're worried about you. ”
The White Lotus also took a jujube and fed it to Du Zhi's mouth:
"Brother Du, do you want to taste a date?"
After Du Bu didn't forget to eat the jujube in his mouth and take a bite, he immediately spit it out and quickly said:
"You must not eat this date, this date is poisonous in it!"
At this time, several people were shocked, because except for Zou Bin, almost everyone else had already eaten.
Zou Bin immediately asked:
"Du Gongzi, it shouldn't be possible that this jujube is poisonous, right?"
Du did not forget to reply:
"This is a colorless and tasteless poison, I just tasted it, because it was this poison that Qi'er was poisoned to death. ”
After listening to this, Mo Er hurriedly took out a medicine bottle, and then after taking a sip of it himself, he handed it to the White Lotus:
"Hurry up and take a sip first, this is a divine water that can temporarily relieve all poisons. ”
Du Buyi asked Zou Bin:
"Brother Zou, did you buy these dates from a very old man with a white beard and a slender beard?"
Zou Bin replied:
"Yes!"
Then he asked:
"Du Gongzi, how do you know?"
Du Buyi said excitedly:
"That's right, it's it, it's it that poisoned Qi'er, and now it wants to poison us, Brother Zou, tell us quickly, where is it now, I want to find it and avenge Qi'er." ”
Zou Bin pointed to Luoyang City behind him:
"I saw the old man carrying dates to Luoyang City. ”
Du didn't forget to ask the White Lotus and Zhuoya who had eaten the poisonous dates:
"Are you all right now?"
White Lotus nodded.
Mo Er says:
"We will be fine in these three days, but we must find an antidote within three days, otherwise we may also be incurable, if only my grandfather was here." ”
Du did not forget to ask again:
"Can you find an antidote to this poison?"
After taking a closer look at a date, Mo Er said:
"I should know how to solve it, but I don't know if there are medicinal herbs for sale in Luoyang City!"
Du didn't forget to glance at the White Lotus:
"Then Ling'er, you should hurry up and accompany Sister Mo'er to find the antidote, Brother Zou and Zhuoya and I will go to find the old man who poisoned him. ”
The White Lotus replied:
"Good!"
Then the five of them returned to Luoyang City together and began to act separately.
However, Du did not forget that the three of them had found it until it was dark, and they did not hear any news of the old man at all, and the five of them gathered in a room of the inn in the evening.
I only heard Du not forget to ask White Lotus and Mo'er:
"How's your medicinal material looking now?"
Mo'er replied:
"The other eight Chinese medicinal materials have been found, and now the most important medicinal materials can't be bought!"
Du did not forget to ask again:
"What kind of herbs are they?"
Mo Er says:
"Lizard King's blood!"
Zou Bin said:
"Lizard King blood, I've heard that Lizard Kings like to inhabit in the cracks of hills and rocks, and ordinary people can't see them, I'm afraid it's hard to find!"
Mo'er replied:
"Yes, so I can't buy it in ordinary pharmacies, but the poison we have now is the poison made by mixing the most poisonous snake and scorpion in the world and the crane top red, so I have found all the other eight kinds of poison that are mutually restrictive, and now I am short of this lizard king's blood. ”
Du Cheng Cheng said:
"Then I wonder if there will be this kind of lizard king hidden in the mountain near Luoyang?"
Mo'er replied:
"I don't know, I can go over there tomorrow and look for it. ”
The White Lotus asked:
"Brother Du, have you found the old man who poisoned you?"
Du Chu shook his head:
"We searched for a day, but there was no news of it, and I suspect it may be Qiao Zhuang. ”
Zhuoya also said:
"I think it's very possible, after all, after a person enters Luoyang City, he will disappear out of thin air. ”
Du Buyi asked Zou Bin:
"If you think about it, what else is so strange about what the old man is wearing?"
Zou Bin recalled for a moment and suddenly said:
"By the way, I almost forgot that when I saw the old man leaving, his shoes seemed to have a lot of white powder on his feet, which I think I had seen in the dyeing room, but I didn't pay attention to it at the time. ”
Du did not forget to say immediately:
"Since Brother Zou said so, it seems that the old man is very likely to be lurking in a dyeing house in the city, otherwise it would be impossible for the soles of his shoes to stick to these white iron powders for no reason. ”
Zou Bin also said:
"Yes, it looks like we're going to have to check out the dyeing houses tomorrow. ”
Du Cheng sighed:
"I think everyone is tired enough for a day today, otherwise let's go back and rest in the morning, and go to investigate this time tomorrow. ”
Zou Bin says:
"Okay, let's all go and rest. ”
