Chapter 133 Predecessor (Ⅲ)

After a while, the chief guard came out, invited Zhusang in, and brought him into the inner hall.

The decoration of the inner hall can be described as magnificent, rosewood furniture, white marble stone pillars, gold, silver and jade objects are placed all over the room, the bed curtains are pulled up, and a human figure can be vaguely seen on the bed.

A middle-aged man in a red riding suit was sitting on the edge of the bed. He looked like he hadn't slept well for several days. Standing on the other side was a woman with blond hair and blue eyes. She was wearing a long white dress. It should look like that Priest Mellie.

"Your Majesty, someone brought it."

The king raised his head to look at the head of the guard, then turned his gaze to Zhusang next to him, "Is this the kid who said he could save Xue'er?"

"Yes."

The king frowned and heaved a long sigh. He really couldn't do anything. Now he can only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor, "Come here."

Zhusang walked to his side and said, "See Your Majesty."

"Can you really save the princess?"

"Yes, but please allow me to take a look at the condition of the princess so that I can determine the dosage of the medicine."

"it is good."

The king stretched out his hand to open the curtain. Zhusang only glanced at it and instantly got goosebumps all over his body. He saw that the body of the man on the bed was covered with dense rhombus-shaped red crystals of different sizes. There seemed to be something crawling in the crystals. , Zhusang took a deep breath and suppressed the discomfort in her heart.

"Your Majesty, I wonder if I can get a spar from the princess?"

"What?" The king frowned instantly, "Isn't that going to dig Xue'er alive? No way!"

"I know Your Majesty can't bear the suffering of the Princess, but pharmaceuticals need to collect samples. I will give the Princess some medicine. She can't feel the pain. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

"This……"

The king looked at his lover who was dying on the bed, barely recognizable in human form, hesitated again and again, but nodded.

Zhusang went to the palace kitchen and cooked a bowl of hemp powder and drank it for the princess. After waiting for the effect of the medicine to take effect, she took out the scalpel exchanged with the system and quickly separated a medium-sized crystal. Then apply medicine to stop the bleeding.

Putting down the bed curtain, Zhusang retreated to his lower body, bent down and saluted, "Your Majesty, give me two days, and I will present the medicine the day after tomorrow."

Seeing her swearing, the king gained some confidence and smiled, "Then it will be hard work for you... By the way, Ha Yin."

"Hain" is the name of the chief guard, "Yes."

"You follow... this..."

"Your Majesty, my name is Zhusang."

"Oh... Ha Yin, you follow Zhusang to protect her safety."

"But Your Majesty, I'm still in charge of guarding the palace, I'm afraid..."

"Just two days, you hand over the work to someone you can trust."

"Yes."

The king asked Ha Yin to follow Zhusang. On the one hand, as he said, in order to protect the safety of Zhusang, the princess suddenly fell ill. There is a high possibility that someone poisoned her. That person definitely does not want the princess to be cured. Zhu Sang attacked, on the other hand, he did not fully trust Zhu Sang, if she came to the palace with other intentions, Ha Yin would feel more at ease looking at her.

When Zhusang was about to retreat, she was keenly aware of a look. When she raised her head, she met Melli's questioning eyes, but the two just looked at each other for a moment and then moved away from each other with a tacit understanding.

But Zhusang can now be sure that there must be something wrong with that Melli.

Ha Yin brought Zhusang to a room, "Miss Zhusang, please stay here for the next two days, I will stay outside, call me if you need anything."

"Okay... making medicine is a very delicate job, and there are few samples, so it's even more sloppy. So these two days, except for three meals a day, try not to disturb me, please."

"Yes."

Zhu Sang entered the room, released Bai Su, let him go out for a walk, but be careful not to be caught.

Put the crystal that was cut off from the princess on the table, and after cleaning it with water, you can see the inside more clearly.

That was indeed a bug.

About half a finger wide and one centimeter long, it was wriggling inside the spar, obviously alive.

Zhusang recalled the scene on the princess, and couldn't help but feel a chill again. The king is still willing to stay with her after all this, is it true love?
She carefully used a small chisel to chip away at the spar bit by bit. Unexpectedly, there was only a thin layer on the outside, which was full of liquid. The insect lived in this liquid.

Zhusang asked the system for a small test tube, poured the worms and liquid into it, and found that the red color was the liquid inside the spar, while the outer shell was transparent, about half a millimeter thick, made of The strength and texture are closer to glass, but slightly harder than glass.

After scraping off the remaining liquid on the shell, Bamboo Sang smelled it lightly. It was a very peculiar smell, similar to the smell of rotten fruit, mixed with some imperceptible bloody smell.

She called Ha Yin in, "Tell me all the information about the princess."

"All? All?"

"Yes, all."

The name of the princess is Xueer, and she was met by the king in the forest while hunting two years ago. She lived alone in the forest, so the king brought her back to the palace and made her his concubine, and he has been his favorite for two years.

"Just...these?" Zhusang felt a little unbelievable, how could she be a princess, with such a short background story?
Ha Yin nodded, "That's all, the princess is usually low-key and rarely goes out, so I really don't know about her affairs."

"Forget it, that's enough for you to know. I'm sorry to bother you."

This world is ruled by three races, but it does not mean that there are only three races. The mermaids rule the ocean, but there are other creatures in the sea. The same is true for the Feng clan. The humans rule the land, but there are elves and dwarves on the land, and The dragon clan that disappeared for thousands of years.

A celibate woman in the forest, with a fruity liquid...

The princess should be an elf, moreover a tree elf and a flower elf.

Plants will be infested by insects, and the elves born from plants will naturally suffer from this condition. This is not a spar disease, but an infection by an insect called Minnar.

Minnar's eggs are extremely small, one is about the size of a grain of flour. They will lay eggs in ripe fruits. Then the elves eat the fruits, and the eggs will break out of the elves' bodies and then crawl to the body surface. Build a nest, purify the elves' blood and store it in the nest, thus forming the red crystal stone. After about a month, Minar will form a cocoon, and in about ten days it will break out of the cocoon and become a The adult insect destroys the crystal and leaves the host.

According to the largest spar I just saw, the princess must have been sick for more than 20 days.
