Reborn as a rebellious son like a wolf

Sure enough, as Tang Mo said, they really found out that a rough-looking man with a beard had come to look for foreigners before the incident, and the two of them drank and sat there for two hours before leaving.

At that time, the man was carrying a box and went out with nothing in his hands.

Gao Zhen searched according to Tang Mo's words, and sure enough, he found a cactus in a water tank behind the house, and threw the box together.

Knowing that it was poisonous, Gao Zhen wrapped it in a cloth and put it in a box, before carefully presenting it to Tang Mo.

Tang Mo and Doctor He leaned forward, looking at the cute pink cactus in front of them. A stench made people feel nauseous, filling the entire main hall.

"That's the cactus."

Doctor He took the small silver needle and pierced it into the cactus, and when the needle was pulled out, the part where the needle touched the juice turned black.

It's really poisonous.

Tang Mo covered his mouth with a silk handkerchief, and leaned further: "The taste is not poisonous, only the juice is poisonous."

Xiao Zhengting frowned and glanced slightly, and said coldly: "It's really easy to feed."

There is only a small plate below with some sand, and it can live well. The things from the desert are really drought-tolerant.

Miracle doctor He pinched the small flower plate below with gloves on, held it in his hand and looked at it.

The body of the cactus is pink, with a thin powder on the surface. The needles are short and transparent, seemingly soft but extremely sharp.

From the surface, it looks no different from ordinary cactus, but the color is more gorgeous, and a little pink crystal liquid is secreted from the end of the needles. If it is true, the smell is coming from there.

Doctor He looked at Tang Mo and said, "Master Hou, is this thing blooming?"

Cactus also blooms and bears fruit. The seeds of this thing are in the body, so it should not bloom.

Tang Mo shook his head and said with a smile, "It's open naturally, and it's more beautiful than ordinary cactus."

"Sure enough, the more poisonous the plant, the more beautiful it is."

This statement is not false at all, Doctor He already knows how to raise it.

Carefully putting it aside, Doctor He looked at Tang Mo: "Master Hou, I want to see if this thing can be used as medicine?"

"No." Tang Mo shook his head and said with a smile: "Someone tried to use special equipment to extract the poison from its body, and wanted to discover its medicinal value, but found that it didn't work much."

At that time there were microscopes and other equipment, but there was nothing here, and it was just a waste of work.

Doctor He was very disappointed when he heard this, and then thought that it could be used to make poison, and when the time comes to fight poison with poison, it might also become a good medicine.

In the afternoon, news came from outside that they had caught the man, who had his hands and feet broken and carried him back to the Marquis of Huguo Mansion.

Wang Qu came before Xiao Zhengting and Tang Mo, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, what Lord Hou said is true, it was this man who gave the foreigner that poisonous cactus."

Tang Mo looked at the man in the courtyard, his hands and tendons were cut off, his appearance was very ordinary, and he didn't have the beard that was mentioned in the news.

Thinking about it, as a killer, his appearance shouldn't be too conspicuous. Just stick a beard on it.

Xiao Zhengting said coldly: "Who sent you here?"

The man made a whining sound, and Tang Mo realized that there was something stuffed in his mouth.

Wang Qu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, he wanted to bite his tongue to kill himself, and finally stuffed a large piece of rag into his mouth."

"Good job." Tang Mo didn't want to interrogate now, and looked at Wang Qu: "Take him down, and I'll come to interrogate myself after I've had enough rest."

"Yes." Wang Qu is used to it. In the Huguohou Mansion, the order of the Marquis is His Majesty's will.

He led the killer and walked out of the courtyard.

Steward Shi quickly asked the agile servants to clean up the blood on the ground, so as not to stain the eyes of the master.

Xiao Zhengting held Tang Mo's hand and said, "Such a person should be a dead man, and it's faster to prescribe the medicine."

"It makes sense." Miracle Doctor He can concoct a hallucinogenic drug, and he will definitely be able to get the news they want.

Doctor He's speed was very fast, and within an hour, someone delivered a small bottle.

The housekeeper smiled and said, "Master He said that this medicine is formulated according to an ancient prescription. As long as you drink it, he will listen to you honestly. Of course, the effect is only two quarters of an hour. You can answer whatever you ask. .”

"Try it."

"Let's go."

Xiao Zhengting pushed Tang Mo out of the courtyard, with Eunuch Sun and Qian Ming behind.

In the dark prison, the man was tied to a long table, his clothes and pants were stained red with blood from his hands and feet.

Wang Qu bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Hou Mansion, do you want to use punishment?"

Handing him the bottle in his hand, Tang Mo said, "Finish it for him."

"Yes."

Wang Qu pressed the man's head and winked at the two men.

The two took out a thumb-sized iron pipe and stuffed it directly into his mouth, then pulled out the cloth strip inside.

With the iron pipe in the way, the opponent would be powerless if he wanted to bite his tongue. Wang Qu had already opened the bottle in his hand, and when the cloth was taken out, he quickly poured the whole bottle of medicine into his mouth.

"Cough, cough..." The man struggled violently, the iron chain on his body was rattled, and no matter how hard he tried, it was impossible to crush the iron pipe.

The medicine slipped down the throat and into the stomach, the man's eyes were red, as if haunted by evil spirits, he stared at Wang Qu.

Wang Qu would never be afraid of him, and focused his eyes on his expression.

Not long after, the man's eyes began to loosen, his body no longer struggled, and he lay limply on the long table, like a fish about to die.

Wang Qu pulled the iron pipe out of his mouth, and stepped aside respectfully. The sticks in the hands of the two guards just now were placed around his neck to prevent him from suddenly waking up and resisting.

Tang Mo came to the man's side, his tone deliberately slowed down, showing three points of gentleness: "Who sent you here?"

The man looked at him with slack eyes, his eyes were as clear as a child's, and he said dully: "It's my master."

"Who is your master?"

"Murong Cheng, the son of Prince Pingjun."

"Why did he send you here?"

"Use any means to kill Tang Mo, Marquis of the Protectorate."

"Do you know the secret of Prince Heping?"

"I don't know, I'm just a peripheral guard, I don't know about the others."

"Do you have other strongholds here, and which official to connect with?"

"Qian Yan, Minister of Punishment, Meng Li, Minister of Rites, I don't know about the others."

Tang Mo asked again at last, but he still couldn't ask anything before the effect of the medicine came out.

Knowing that there was nothing else to ask, Tang Mo glanced at Wang Qu, and said to Xiao Zhengting: "Zhengting, it seems that there is nothing else to ask."

Xiao Zhengting nodded and pushed him out of the prison.

There are no more useful killers, and there is no other way to go except death.

As soon as he stepped into the dark room, he saw Miracle Doctor He coming over happily: "Master Hou, Lord Hou, that poison is really powerful, it is the most cunning poison I have ever seen."

"Then do some research."

"Don't worry, I will."

Miracle Doctor He walked into the garden with a smile on his face, where he planted some non-toxic herbs, and he wanted to do other experiments.

After Tang Mo went back, he said he wanted to rest, Xiao Zhengting slept with him for a while before getting up, and went to clean up the two servants.

The moment he closed the door, Tang Mo suddenly opened his eyes and got up slowly: "Come here."

"Master." The guard outside the door walked in, respectfully kneeling on the ground: "What order do you have?"

"Help me to the recovery room."

This is what he had done before, specifically to rehabilitate his legs.

The guard responded and pushed him out of the back room to the recovery room in the side room, which was opposite the training room.

Tang Mo stood in front of the parallel bars, and asked the guards to lift him up between the bars.

The guards looked at each other and did as they were.

Clamping the iron rod under his arm, Tang Mo forced his feet to stand on the ground, and the tingling pain came from his knees, like a sharp arrow piercing his heart.

Gritting his teeth secretly, Tang Mo looked at the guard: "Help me move my feet."

He hadn't walked on his feet for half a year, so he had to recover his memory of walking first.

The guards looked at each other, and one said: "Master Hou, you are in such pain, you should wait a few more days."

"You don't understand, if my feet don't walk, they will really be useless. After a long time, people's brains will forget the fact that their feet can walk, and when they learn to walk again, it will be more painful than it is now. My body I know , just do it."

"Yes."

The guards have followed him for so long, and they already know his personality well.

Lord Hou said yes, so it must be possible.

Of the four guards, two stood by his side so that they could help him at any time, and the other two knelt on the ground, carefully moving his feet out of the first step.

The severe pain made Tang Mo's body tremble slightly, and he was sweating profusely. Even so, he still gritted his teeth and stepped forward carefully.

The guards knelt down to move him in turn, and did not help him back to the wheelchair until Tang Mo couldn't stand it anymore.

At this time, the clothes on Tang Mo's body were all soaked with sweat, and water was sprinkled on the ground.

The guards pushed him back to the room. The butler had asked someone to prepare hot water, and they carefully carried him into the tub filled with wet water.

The butler took the towel and wiped his upper body for him. As for the lower body, Tang Mo usually came by himself.

After tossing for an hour, when Xiao Zhengting came back, Tang Mo happened to have taken a shower, so he asked everyone to retreat, and he dressed Tang Mo himself.

Then he carried him back to the couch, took the butler's dry towel and wiped his hair clean.

Xiao Zhengting said, "What was Mo doing just now?"

He went in and the guard took his clothes out, all soaked in sweat, and the smell of sweat floated into his nostrils.

Tang Mo smiled and said, "I'm recovering, but it hurts a little."

"Let's wait for a few more days to talk about it." Mo Du said it was painful, it must be excruciatingly painful, and Xiao Zhengting's eyes were full of distress.

Tang Mo held his hand and said with a smile: "Do you know Zhengting? The human brain has memory, so we can remember so many things. If your legs don't walk for a long time, the brain's command will be extreme. Without training, I will really be unable to stand up for the rest of my life. This pain is nothing, I want to stand up again."

Holding him in his arms, Xiao Zhengting doted on him and said distressedly: "Okay, follow Mo."

"How about rescue after a fire?"

"Don't worry, the handling is very good, and the officials dare not be careless."

Mo often told him some strange policies, other officials didn't understand, but he thought it was very good, benefiting the country and the people.

The same is true for dealing with the fire this time. They simply cut down the burned trees and planted fruit trees directly so that the people can have income.

Thinking of something, Xiao Zhengting's eyes were stained with a smile: "There will be a palace banquet in ten days, do you want to go?"

Ten days is a festival, every year there will be a big palace banquet, and this year is no exception.

Mo's situation is special, if he doesn't want to go, he can sleep at home.

Tang Mo pinched his face lightly, and said with a smile on his face: "Of course I'm going, let those women who covet you see, even if I'm disabled, no one will want to covet you."

For his possessiveness, Xiao Zhengting was very happy, and kissed him on the cheek: "It's good that Mo is happy."
