CHAPTER XLIII
The hat man took the lead and walked out of the cave a few steps before stopping, turned around and took off the big hat, revealing his face, it was a young man with a beautiful and white face, and said to the two: "Si Lengxian Yujun, General Mo Yan don't be confused, I am Sheng Xun's subordinate Xuanyou, and I don't know that the two of them are coming to this Lianhu Lake, so I didn't tell the two of them, just now Sheng Xun's secret letter from the emperor has just been transmitted to the mansion, and I learned that the two of them came here, I am afraid that the two of them don't know that this lake is dangerous, and they are very urgent to come down to help." ”
Si Lengxian asked, "Where did those poisonous mosquitoes come from?" Xuanyou replied: "This lake is called Lianhu Lake, and the lake is full of smoke all year round. Mo Yan interjected and asked, "Can the smoke be poisonous?" Xuan You replied: "The smoke by the lake is not poisonous, but the thorns all over the lake shore are extremely poisonous, and if you touch it with your body, the venom can enter the body and be difficult to treat." Those poisonous mosquitoes are born on these thorns, and the toxicity can be imagined. ”
Mo Yan said: "But Si Lengxian Yujun and I were both injured by those poisonous mosquitoes, is it dangerous?" Xuan You was shocked and said, "Where is the injury, I'll take a look." ”
Mo Yan and Si Lengxian both stretched out their hands, and the four hands were already red and swollen, Xuan You looked at it carefully, and hurriedly took out a small bamboo tube from his underwear pocket, poured out two pills in the bamboo tube, pressed them with his hands, and applied them to the wound, and said: "Fortunately, the two of them sacrificed the occult art to resist toxicity at that time, and there is no big problem, this medicine is made by Xianbo Fengyu, and the pill can be detoxified by applying the pill on time." "Sure enough, after applying the medicine, a trace of coldness penetrated into the skin, and after a while, the swelling began to subside and it was not so painful. Si Lengxian looked at Mo Yan and said, "I can't get to the lake, what should I do?" Xuanyou said: "Please come with me, Sheng Xun knows the intention of the two of them, and ordered me to lead the two to see one person, she must have a way to help the two." ”
Mo Yan and Si Lengxian looked at each other and nodded, followed Xuanyou in the cave, turned left and right, and walked for a long time before reaching the exit. As soon as I got out of the cave, the sky was bright, and I had returned to the Bamboo Wind Sea realm.
Xuanyou led the way, all the way forward, came to the bustling street of Zhufenghai, the shops on both sides of the street one after another, and the pedestrians were very lively. Si Lengxian looked around and said: "The bamboo wind and sea are prosperous, compared to the dancing platform, it is even better." Xuanyou said with a smile: "The dancing platform has also been to our imperial monarch once, and the elegant scenery there, the catkins are diffuse, and we can't reach the bamboo wind and sea." "Si Lengxian listened to Xuanyou's speech different from ordinary martial artists, but his words were measured, and Sheng's subordinates who knew the imperial monarch were really different.
As he spoke, he had come to a winery. The winery is in the most prosperous part of the street, and the wine is hung high and the colors are bright. There are four big characters embroidered on it: Red Clay Wine Workshop. Before you reach the front of the winery, you can already smell the mellow aroma of wine. There are a lot of winery houses, countless large and small wine jars are placed on the bamboo pavilion layer by layer, many servants are busy back and forth, Xuanyou called a middle-aged man in gray clothes and said something, the man nodded and hurriedly walked out. Xuanyou led Mo Yan and the two of them directly into a room in the wine shop*, where the decoration was exquisite and beautiful, but the intoxicating aroma of wine still floated.
As soon as I sat down, I heard a sound of footsteps outside, and then the door was pushed open and walked in, a delicate and bright woman, dressed in a red shirt and charming, with a golden hairpin on her headdress, looked a little old, but still smiling and moving. Walking into the room, he smiled lightly, his voice was tactful and delicate, and said: "One step late, I haven't greeted you from afar, and I hope that the emperor and the general will forgive you." As he spoke, he leaned over to give a salute, and then still let Si Lengxian and Mo Yan sit down, and poured tea himself. Xuanyou said: "Yujun, General Moyan, this is the owner of the winery here, Miss Enluo. She has a unique incense medicine that can cure the poison of thorn mosquitoes. ”
Enluo nodded, asked the servant behind him to close the door and guard it, then opened the box and took out two large hats and a small bamboo tube, as well as a pair of wooden shoes, and said: "I only have so many here, the vines that weave the hat are dyed by the incense medicine that repells poisonous mosquitoes, and wearing a hat and standing on the shore can prevent poisonous mosquitoes, but the solution to the lake poisoning is only enough for one person to enter the lake to save people for the time being, and if you want the two to go together, you have to wait for more than ten days to refine the antidote incense." Si Lengxian immediately said: "That's fine, I'll save people." The desert goose took the hat and guarded the lake. ”
Mo Yan hurriedly said: "By all means, the royal monarch, how can you make a risk, or the last general will go." Si Lengxian said: "The general doesn't have to worry about the safety of Benjun, Benjun has been familiar with water since he was a child, and it is more convenient than the general." The general can guard by the lake, and if there is any change, he can reinforce the king at any time to ensure safety. Mo Yan knew that what Si Lengxian said was true, and there was no better way at this time, so she had to agree.
Enluo taught the two how to use the incense, and then said: "Sheng Xun knows how to explain to the imperial monarch, the imperial monarch and the general are still going to Lianhu Lake from the stone cave, and the incense on these hats is only enough for the two of you to use for a day and a night, and the rest of this is left for the people you rescue, if you don't save people, you must come back immediately, otherwise your life will be in danger." Mo Yan put away the things in his arms, and said coldly: "Thank you, I will definitely thank the girl again when I come back." Enluo smiled: "That's not necessary, Sheng Xun has already thanked me." After a pause, he said, "After the two of you come back, you must still come back from the stone cave, and it will change later." Si Lengxian agreed, said goodbye to Xuanyou and Enluo, and returned to Lianhu with Moyan.
Si Lengxian, who was worried about the frost in his heart, hurried back to the cave by the Lianhu Lake with Mo Yan, Si Lengxian put incense medicine on his body, Mo Yan also put on a big hat, and a medicinal fragrance gradually spread, and when he walked out of the cave, the poisonous mosquitoes were far away and did not dare to come. Si Lengxian put on wooden shoes and walked on the poisonous thorns without hesitation, and sure enough, he was unscathed, and then jumped into the lake.
The stone prison in the lake is very large, and you can see it when you enter the lake, but the stones that build the stone prison are tightly sealed, and you can't do anything with Xuan Li Si Leng Xian alone. Fortunately, Geng Zhu had already prepared and brought a gravel pill to Si Lengxian, and Si Lengxian saw that there was no one to guard him, so he took out the gravel pill and smeared it on one of the large stones in the stone prison, and sure enough, in less than a moment, the stones began to loosen, and they fell down into small stones.
The lake immediately poured into the crevices of the stones. Faintly, the stone prison was dark. Si Lengxian thought secretly: "It's not good, I didn't expect this." In a hurry, he had to take off his robe and split the gravel with one palm, revealing a gap that a person could pass through, and quickly swam in, but fortunately, the lake did not fill in too much. The caftan was then pressed against the destroyed void and plugged with waterweeds to temporarily block the lake's access.
After Si Lengxian finished finishing it, he turned his head to look at the stone prison, and it was dark everywhere he saw.
