Chapter 357: Detoxification and Saving People
"Well, it still smells a little fishy. Ding Kui approached the medicine jar and sniffed it, picked up the spoon and dipped it a little, "It's slightly bitter, there is sweetness, you have to add some herbs that have a strong flavor and can lift qi, and you can't add too much to make up if you haven't eaten for a few days." ”
Bai Yun, who was anxious, finally saw Ding Kui open the door and come out with a bowl of thick black medicinal soup in her hand, she snatched the tray in the maid's hand and ran to Ding Kui, "Your Excellency Xie Peng, let me serve it." ”
"Okay, be careful, don't spill it, this medicine has been fried for nearly an hour before such a bowl comes out, whether you can save the city lord of Bai depends on it." Ding Kui carefully put the bowl on the tray in Bai Yun's hand, in fact, there was more than one bowl in the medicine jar, and the extra was drunk by Ding Kui himself.
Bai Yun is the only daughter of the Bai family, and she has been trained a lot when she was a child, she walked quickly to her father's bedroom, and the medicine she was holding did not spill a drop.
Since it was the first time he used the Huajiao Bead, Ding Kui was also eager to know its efficacy, and followed Bai Yun unhurriedly to see how the city lord reacted after drinking it.
Before Ding Kui could walk into the city lord's bedroom, he heard the city lord's wife say, "Yun'er, can this bowl of black things really save your father?"
It's no wonder that the city lord's wife suspects that Bai Cen is an earl after all, and he can't just find someone to get something to drink, Ding Kui made this bowl of things really doesn't look very good, and the city lord's wife, who is used to fine clothes and food, looks like more poison than antidote.
"Mother, Your Excellency Xie Peng is not an ordinary person, and the medicine he worked so hard to concoct is worth letting my father try. In Bai Yun's opinion, the slashing warrior Ding Yu is Xie Peng's follower, and this pomp is no lower than his father.
Ding Kui walked into the bedroom, picked up the bowl of medicine and took a sip, saying, "He can't die, he's been in a coma for five days, and if he goes on like this, he really can't save La." ”
Bai Yun didn't care so much, picked up the medicine, flashed past the city lord's wife, sat on the edge of the bed, held Bai Cen's head high, and poured the medicine into Bai Cen's mouth little by little.
Seeing that Ding Kui had drunk it herself, the city lord's wife thought that at least it was not poisonous, and she might be able to save her husband by fighting hard, and she also ran to the bedside to help Bai Cen smooth his breath, so that the medicine could flow into the stomach.
That night, it took more than ten minutes to pour all the medicine into Bai Cen's mouth, I don't know what kind of poison can make the fearless knight look like this, Ding Kui has never heard of it.
Not long after the medicine was filled, Bai Zen's breathing began to get heavier, and the black on his face gradually faded. Ding Kui asked Bai Yun to pull out one of Bai Cen's arms, rolled up his sleeves and looked, the black on his arms was also fading.
"It's effective, the city lord has been poisoned for a long time, I'm afraid that a bowl of medicine can't completely remove the poison, I'll fry another bowl." "Ding Kui is a layman in treating diseases and saving people, although he has an antidote in hand, he doesn't know how much weight is needed.
He had a little experience in decocting the medicine for the second time, and it didn't hurt to drink more anyway, so he simply fried two large bowls, and the amount of medicinal materials used to cover up was reduced by a part.
The first bowl of medicine made Bai Cen regain a little consciousness, and the second time he poured the medicine, he would take the initiative to swallow his throat, and the two large bowls of medicine were drunk in a few minutes.
The mother and daughter, who had been guarding the bedside, looked at Bai Cen nervously, paying attention to even the slightest change.
"Gollum, Gollum. There was a sound of water in Bai Zen's abdomen.
Suddenly.
"Hmm. Bai Cen opened his eyes, his neck tense.
Ding Kui took a step back.
Bai Cen suddenly straightened his upper body, turned around and lay out of the bed, and opened his mouth to vomit.
There happened to be a wooden basin at Ding Kui's feet, and Ding Kui kicked it, and the wooden basin slid to the side of the bed.
"Uh, vomit ......" Bai Cen spat out a very foul pool of black water and fell into the wooden basin kicked by Ding Kui.
Bai Yun didn't think too much, and hurriedly supported her father, who was lying on the side of the bed and vomiting, and the excited city lord's wife stood up and shouted: "Come on, get some hot water." Cuihua, go and heat up the stewed ginseng soup, no, just move the stove into the room, I'll heat it. ”
Outside the bedroom like boiling water, there was a loud noise, the city lord was unconscious for many days, and the whole Bai Mansion was holding a heart, and it was great news that Bai Cen was able to get up at this moment, and the servants were all running to tell each other.
"Phew, bah, Yu Ren, he dared to poison me!" Bai Cen, who hadn't eaten for a few days, was quite angry, and he knew that he was poisoned before he fell unconscious.
"Father, you're awake!" Bai Yun held back the tears in her eyes to prevent them from flowing.
"Master, don't get excited, don't get angry and scare my mother and daughter. The lady of the city lord took a handkerchief and wiped Bai Zen's mouth.
"Hmm, hmm, who is this?" Bai Cen found Ding Kui covering his mouth and nose to observe the basin of sewage.
"This is the benefactor who detoxified you, Your Excellency Magician Xie Peng. Bai Yun introduced.
"Is there any discomfort in the city lord of Bai?" Ding Kui didn't see the name in the wooden basin, and instead asked about Bai Cen's physical condition.
"Thank you, Your Excellency Peng, I'm fine now. Yun'er, accompany the benefactor to take a rest, and when I am fully dressed, I will officially thank the benefactor. "Bai Cen has come to his senses, there are outsiders present, even if this person saves his life, he does not want to fully expose his weak side.
Bai Yun understood her father's thoughts, and politely asked Ding Kui to go back to the main hall.
"I heard the benefactor say, you have just arrived in Zhuguang City, and you haven't found a place to stay, right? Yun will arrange a guest room for you, and the benefactor must stay in the Bai family for a few days, so that the Bai family can repay the grace of saving lives. Only then did Bai Yun remember what Ding Kui had said at the beginning.
"Then it's annoying, by the way, I came to visit the city lord of Bai this time, I have something I want to ask. Ding Kui remembered the purpose of his first visit.
"What's the matter? ”
"Miss Bai, let's call me Xie Peng, today I found many hungry people in the city, they should all be the subjects of your Bai family, why are they begging in the city?"
"Oh, that's it, it just so happens that this matter is related to my father's poisoning, you have solved my father's poison, and my father will explain this matter to you from beginning to end, and you will understand it in a while, I won't repeat it now." Bai Yun pushed the matter on Bai Cen's head.
She refused to say it in front of her benefactor, she had to be a father to come out and say, could it be that this matter had something to do with this eldest sister? The Yu Ren scolded by Bai Cen was not simple, and it was not easy to get the poison that could poison the fearless knight, and it was not a small plot to spend such a big price.
Ding Kui went through the matter again, the more he thought about it, the more chaotic he became, there was no clear line to string things together, and the only thing that could be confirmed was that the situation of the Bai family was not good.
Normal people have been in a coma for five days, and they will not be able to get out of bed for a while and a half, the physique of the fearless knight is better than that of ordinary people, Ding Kui and Bai Yun chatted for more than an hour, and Bai Cen came to the hall dressed neatly.
"The benefactor is above, please accept Bai Ceng's worship. "Bai Cen wants to kneel and bow to Ding Kui.
"This is really not necessary, for me the lord of Baicheng is the elder, and it is the duty of my generation to help the elderly, and I can thank me with my money. Ding Kui didn't want to be bowed down to.
"How can a mere wealth be compared with my life, Bai Moucai is also the earl of the Gu Yuan Empire; Bai Czen insisted on kneeling.
Ding Kui couldn't resist in the end, so he had to accept Bai Cen's worship.
"As soon as the benefactor arrived in the city, he relieved hundreds of hungry people, and this matter has been reported to me, and he is truly a benevolent and righteous man. I came to the city after I was unconscious, and my family ignored them because of my affairs, and I have ordered the Livelihood Department to send personnel to arrange for these hungry people. Don't worry, I'll make this matter clear to you. Seeing Ding Kui's look of wanting to ask, Bai Cen raised his hand and motioned to Ding Kui to listen to him first, "This matter should start with the people who came to Kamikaze City to propose marriage."
The Yu family has produced several shrewd family heads in these generations, and Kamikaze City has become richer and richer, with more and more population, and has also recruited a lot of talents, and the strength of the Yu family has increased several times. The contemporary head of the Yu family, Yu Ren, doesn't know when he became a prince of the five princes, and his attitude is becoming more and more arrogant.
After the New Year this year, Yu Ren sent a housekeeper to come to Zhuguang City with a dowry to propose, Yu Ren's eldest son Yu Ming is already thirty years old, because of his ugly appearance and perverse personality, there has been no daughter of a famous family willing to marry him as a wife. The little girl Yun'er is twenty years old, she looks good not to mention beautiful, because I have a daughter under my knees, and she will need her to take over the position of the lord of Zhuguang City in the future, and I didn't plan to let her marry, let alone marry Na Yuming.
After the Yu family housekeeper was rejected by me, he returned to Kamikaze City with the dowry, but on the way back, he was robbed by robbers, not only all the dowry was robbed, but even the housekeeper was killed. Yu Ren was furious about this matter, and forcibly accused me of sending someone to rob and kill people, and I must give an explanation, if I don't marry Yun'er to Yu Ming, the Yu family will declare war on the Bai family. ”
Ding Kui couldn't help but interject when he heard this: "I'm afraid that Yu Ren himself sent someone to rob and kill people." ”
"Yes, why didn't I think of this, now it seems very likely that Yu Ren's real purpose is to annex Pearl City. Bai Cen looked at Ding Kui's eyes as if he had found a confidant, "The chances of winning in the noble war are not very good in Zhuguang City, and I don't want to fall out with Kamikaze City, so I sent someone to bring some property to Yu Ren, and lowered my posture to apologize to him."
But Yu Ren is not satisfied, and he must send Yun'er over to be his daughter-in-law, otherwise he will start a noble war. Not only did he make verbal threats, but he also sent people to the Pearl City to rob them, two of which had been sacked by the people of Kamikaze, and the hungry people in the city had fled from those two towns.
It is said that some time ago, Yu Ren sent someone to the imperial capital to apply for a noble war, and I asked Yu Ren to have an interview, hoping that this matter could be resolved peacefully. I only brought a team of guards to Kamikaze City to negotiate, but I didn't expect that Yu Ren would do such a thing and poison the wine and food. He didn't dare poison me in Kamikaze, I was poisoned on my way home. ”
"What did you eat in Kamikaze City?" Ding Kui interjected again.
"I didn't eat anything, I only drank a few glasses of Yuren's wine, and because of this, I was sure that he had poisoned him, and I didn't eat anything on the way back. The wine is clean and transparent, and the taste is not much different from ordinary wine, but the wine is stronger. "Patten is reminiscing about the wine he drank that day.
"Then the problem must be with the wine. Oops!" Ding Kui suddenly shouted.
