Cannon fodder beauty master awakens
Chapter 60
Li Youchuan was waiting outside in fear. Seeing Pei Xiangyun come out as if fleeing, he thought that something happened to his young master. The surname Pei was afraid of taking responsibility and running away, so he quickly grabbed his clothes and said, "What are you running for?" ? How is the young master?"
Pei Xiangyun groaned incessantly, swelled in pain, and said in a low voice: "Master is fine, let me go."
The more Li Youchuan looked at him, the more suspicious he became, and he refused to let go: "It's nothing, why are you running? Why is your mouth full of blood?"
"I……"
Pei Xiangyun's remaining reason was burned by desire, he just wanted to go to the stream quickly, so he took a shower to calm himself down for a moment, broke free from Li Youchuan's hand, and staggered to the distance.
"Let him go..." Jiang Yi whispered in the car, "I'm fine..."
Li Youchuan felt relieved after hearing his words, and hurried back to the carriage: "Master, what's wrong with him?"
Jiang Yi's brows and eyes looked tired, and he raised his eyelids and glanced at him: "I'm in love."
"Oh, so it's... what did you say, young master?"
Li Youchuan thought he heard it wrong, and stared at Jiang Yi with wide eyes: "What are you talking about?"
"that's not important."
Jiang Yi temporarily covered the wound with a handkerchief, and then put on his clothes slowly: "Go and tell the coachman to rest in a nearby town tonight."
Li Youchuan was still thinking about his vague words, so he frowned and went out of the car again.
Jiang Yi sighed inaudibly, feeling a little headache.
What happened to Pei Xiangyun?
According to his deduction, if Pei Xiangyun really misunderstood something because of his cross-border care in his previous life, it can be said that he has never given Pei Xiangyun any good looks in this life.
Humiliated, beaten and scolded at every turn, he even thought that Pei Xiangyun would hate him, but he didn't expect everything to gradually overlap with his previous life.
What did Pei Xiangyun say earlier?
He said that he was very similar to his mother, so he always insisted on being his own student, no matter how harshly he was treated, he would not leave.
Jiang Yi pressed his knuckles to the corners of his eyes, and really couldn't figure out what strange things were in this wolf cub's head.
Li Youchuan went to the front to find the coachman and came back. After seeing Jiang Yi's face, he swallowed the gossip honestly.
The two sat in awkward silence opposite each other for a long time, the curtain of the car moved, and Pei Xiangyun got in with a blushing face.
Li Youchuan very consciously told the coachman that he could continue on his way, and then held up the book of the story, regardless of whether he could understand it or not, he covered his face and started reading.
Pei Xiangyun huddled in the corner, neither advancing nor retreating, he didn't know where to put his hands and feet, so he could only quietly glance at Jiang Yi intentionally or unintentionally.
Jiang Yi had noticed his little tricks a long time ago, but he didn't have the patience to tolerate him, so he asked in a low voice, "Is there something wrong with you?"
Being called by someone suddenly, Pei Xiangyun trembled, looked up at him with some guilt, and after a while he whispered: "Master, does the injury on your shoulder still hurt?"
The pain is naturally painful, but it is much better than the previous tingling numbness.
"I have something to say..." Jiang Yi didn't answer his question, "Don't beat around the bush."
"The student just went to rush... When he rushed to the body, he found a kind of herbal medicine in the woods."
Pei Xiangyun stumbled when he said "rushing", and his cheeks were suddenly red.
He reached into his pocket in a panic, and took out a handful of weed-like things: "This kind of herb is applied to the wound, which can speed up the healing of the wound."
"No need..." Jiang Yi said, "I'll be in the village soon, and I can find a doctor then."
The light in Pei Xiangyun's eyes suddenly dimmed, and he murmured: "But..."
You will be hurt.
He didn't say these words, but looked down at the herb in his hand that was so ravaged by the bumps that it couldn't be seen as intact, and the tip of his nose felt a little sore.
Does the teacher not trust him?
Pei Xiangyun glanced at Jiang Yi with those black eyes full of grievances, just in time to meet the man's cold gaze.
Jiang Yi was a little surprised to see the sadness in his eyes.
What's so sad about that?
Now that the bleeding has finally stopped, if Pei Xiangyun is to make a fuss, what other situations will happen if it is not possible to make a fuss.
What's more, according to the map estimate, they will be able to reach the nearest city in less than half an hour.
There is no need.
Jiang Yi didn't bother to explain this to Pei Xiangyun, so he just looked away, looking outside into the gradually darkened darkness, and suddenly heard a low sob.
He suspected that he had heard it wrong, and his hesitant eyes fell back into the carriage again, but he didn't hear the sobbing voice just now.
But after looking away again, the vague voice appeared again.
Jiang Yi frowned slightly, and his eyes wandered around for a long time, almost sure that the person crying quietly was Pei Xiangyun.
As for it?
He sneered in his heart.
In his previous life, he had never seen this traitor so weak, crying into such a virtue after being rejected once.If he was like now at that time, I am afraid that there will be no such troubles later.
Jiang Yi closed his eyes and leaned back. After resting for a while, the carriage finally arrived at a nearby county town.
This county is called Chengdeng County, which is located at the intersection of Longzhou and Yuzhou.
At the same time, it was also the place of negotiation when Dayan and the Wusi Army signed the Wangling Alliance a few years ago.
Jiang Yi opened his eyes slightly, and his eyes were a little more thoughtful.
Today, this group of men in black are definitely not bandits.
Ordinary bandits would not have the guts to forcibly block the cars of court officials, most of them would only rob passing business travelers who were easy to bully.
And after listening to Pei Xiangyun's narration just now, he became more certain of an idea——
This group of people really came for themselves.
Many people knew that he would pass this way, but who on earth did not want him to return to Yandu so much?
Jiang Yi roughly had several answers in his mind, and listed them one by one, feeling that no matter which one it was, it looked suspicious.
First of all, it was the undercover agent hiding in the Longxi military camp, and then the group of sour scholars in Yandu who only knew how to be wise and protect themselves. No matter who they were, they had enough reasons and abilities to stop him halfway.
Jiang Yi took a deep breath and rubbed his temples, only to feel sleepiness sweeping over him.
Li Youchuan whispered: "Master, we're here."
Jiang Yi supported the car to get up, slowly got out of the carriage, and met Pei Xiangyun's gaze when he raised his eyes.
The wolf cub's eyes were very red, and when he looked at him, he lowered his head to hide it, pretending that nothing happened.
Jiang Yi sneered, and walked forward first, and saw a fat middle-aged man head-on.
The man had a mustache on his chin, his eyes were slightly narrowed, and he looked like a cunning and cunning man. After seeing Jiang Yi, he approached him very kindly, and said earnestly: "I have admired the name of the prime minister for a long time. When I saw you today, the prime minister really Extraordinary."
Jiang Yi smiled at him politely: "Is it Mu Hongcai, the magistrate of Mu County?"
Hearing Jiang Yi call his name, the county magistrate smiled so much that the fat on his face piled up: "Master Jiang, do you know the name of the lower official?"
"I heard a little..." Jiang Yi said, "Magistrate Mu has worked hard."
"Not hard, not hard."
Mu Hongcai heard him praise himself, and the smile on his face deepened: "Where is Mr. Jiang, our parents and officials will naturally serve the local people."
Jiang Yi had a smile on his lips, but his eyes were cold.
To serve the common people?
Last summer, Chengdeng County suffered from floods, and a letter of impeachment against Mu Hongcai was sent directly to Yandu, accusing him, as the county magistrate, of not opening warehouses to provide disaster relief, but instead arresting and imprisoning countless people who resisted, and even causing his subordinates to beat people to death .
The imperial court sent officials to visit Longzhou, but they found that nothing happened in the impeachment letter. They suspected that something else was hidden, but one of the officials suddenly became dissatisfied with the water and soil, and nearly died of vomiting and diarrhea. He had no choice but to return home .
This can only become an unresolved case.
Mu Hongcai led them all the way to the outside of the magistrate's mansion. There were servants and maidservants waiting outside, leading them to the mansion.
Pei Xiangyun hugged Jiang Yi tightly, and said in a low voice, "Master, does your injury still hurt?"
Jiang Yi glanced at him, then raised his eyes: "Where is Magistrate Mu taking us?"
"Wash the dust and catch the wind, wash the dust and catch the wind."
Mu Hongcai blinked at him thoughtfully and playfully: "Xiaguan has prepared the food and dancers early, just to give you a clean slate."
Jiang Yi frowned slightly, and his tone was a little more displeased: "Magistrate Mu, it's almost Haishi, it seems inappropriate to welcome me with great fanfare, isn't there a curfew in Chengdeng County?"
Mu Hongcai's complexion changed, and he quickly apologized and said with a smile: "What about the Prime Minister, I'm not thinking about you coming all the way, I'm afraid you didn't eat a mouthful of hot food, so..."
He raised his head quickly, a stern look flashed across his eyes, but his voice was still courteous: "What are you doing standing there, didn't you listen to what Master Qingjiang said? They all withdrew, withdrew."
"We're tired all the way..." Jiang Yi said, "Let's go to the resting place first."
Mu Hongcai responded repeatedly and asked the servant to take a few people to the guest room of the county magistrate's mansion.
The county magistrate's mansion looked old from the outside, but the furnishings inside were very new, and there were even many small ornaments that Jiang Yi had never seen before in Yandu's house.
Mu Hongcai arranged two rooms for the three of them and the coachman. As Jiang Yi's servant, Li Youchuan was naturally taken to live with the coachman.
So Jiang Yi and Pei Xiangyun were put into the same room.
Pei Xiangyun hadn't thought that such a thing would happen before, but when he thought of the embarrassing scene on the road, his heart beat so fast that it seemed to jump out of his throat, and he entered the same room with the teacher almost on the same hands and feet.
The door was gently closed by him, and before he could speak, he heard the man groan.
Pei Xiangyun's heartbeat, which had not yet calmed down, quickly lit up the torch and lit a candle on one side.
The dim candlelight illuminated the room, and Jiang Yi was sitting on the chair next to him, his face was pale and he was covering his left shoulder, his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
"Master..."
Pei Xiangyun hurried over and watched as Jiang Yi carefully unbuttoned his collar, revealing the veil wrapped around the wound.
The veil was originally white, but now stained with blood, it was dyed a dark red.
Jiang Yi originally thought that the wound would heal by itself if he lasted for an hour, but now it seems that is not the case.
The man in black didn't know what kind of poison he had applied to the short arrow. He was afraid that it would seriously affect the healing of the wound and make the blood flow more and more.
Pei Xiangyun stared at the wound closely, his heart slowly fell to the bottom.
"Don't stand there stupidly..." Jiang Yi whispered, "Go and find the doctor."
Pei Xiangyun straightened up with red eyes and was about to leave when he heard the man say, "Don't disturb Mu Hongcai."
Jiang Yi looked at the young man's frizzy back and sighed with some headache.
If he didn't tell him specifically, this wolf cub would probably make a fuss so that the entire county magistrate's mansion would know that he was injured.
He leaned back slightly, leaning against the head of the bed, and suddenly a voice he hadn't heard for a long time sounded in his ear: "Master Jiang, is this injured?"
Jiang Yi was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized who was speaking, with a forced smile on the corner of his lips: "Isn't Mr. Fan busy today? Are you free to come and see me?"
Fan Wujiu's voice was still as old-fashioned and impersonal as usual: "Yes, I have free time today."
"This injury looks a bit serious..." Jiang Yi lightly pressed the bleeding spot, and felt the pain like needle pricks as expected, "Will it kill me?"
"Should not."
"You still comfort people?"
"I didn't comfort you..." Fan Wujiu didn't cause any emotional fluctuations because of what he said, and still said in a rigid manner, "If you are really going to die, then your name will appear in the book of life and death a few days in advance , remind me to come to this world to pick you up."
This place is quite particular.
"Master Jiang is afraid of death?" Fan Wujiu asked, "I never thought that Master Jiang would take life and death so seriously that he even came to ask me."
Jiang Yi closed his eyes slightly tiredly: "It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's that I have some regrets."
In his previous life, he only thought that the fall of Longxi was the trigger for Dayan's downfall, but now that he was alive again, he discovered that there was much more than that hidden behind it.
Under this huge dynasty, there are countless forces with ulterior motives and intricate roots, waiting for the opportunity for them to take advantage of the loopholes.
Jiang Yi finally got a glimpse of the clues of the giant, how could he leave with these regrets?
He was just about to get some words out of Fan Wujiu's mouth, but he heard the door of the bedroom creak.
Pei Xiangyun held an old man by the collar and pushed him into the room, and said in a low voice, "If you dare to shout, I will kill you."
The old man was probably over sixty years old and had a gray beard. He was so frightened by Pei Xiangyun's fierce appearance that he trembled all over, and said in a trembling voice: "I, I..."
Jiang Yi opened his eyes with a headache: "What are you doing again? Let him go."
Seeing the teacher speak, Pei Xiangyun could only reluctantly let go of the old doctor, stepped back a few steps and stood aside and stared at him, maybe the doctor would deal with him on the spot if he did one more action that shouldn't be done.
The doctor glanced at him with some fear, opened his cloth bag, and took out a silver thread and a silver needle from inside.
Knowing that he was about to take his pulse, Jiang Yi rolled up his cuffs and put his wrists flat on his legs.
Although the old doctor looked old, but his hands were very steady, he closed his eyes for a while, and said in a low voice: "This gentleman's pulse is floating and hollow, and his heart rhythm is irregular. I am afraid it is caused by trauma. The air is floating, has your lord been injured recently?"
"I've been hurt by arrows..." Jiang Yi said in a low voice, "I thought the wound was fine, but I didn't expect it to be bleeding all the time. I'm afraid it's because it was painted with poison."
"Is the arrow still there?" the doctor asked, "Can you show me?"
Jiang Yi glanced at Pei Xiangyun who was standing aside, he quickly found a long strip wrapped in cloth from the bag, and carefully handed it to the doctor.
Still have a brain.
Jiang Yi didn't specifically tell him when he was in the carriage, and he didn't have the hope that Pei Xiangyun would remember to bring the arrow back, but now he found that he seemed to have really underestimated the carefulness of this wolf cub.
The doctor took the arrow and carefully put it under the candlelight for a while to examine: "If I'm not mistaken, the arrow is probably painted with a poisonous weed unique to the mountains and fields of Longzhou."
Pei Xiangyun frowned: "What is unique to Longzhou? Are you sure there are no other places?"
"When I was young, I worked as a barefoot doctor for more than ten years. I traveled to countless villages and villages, but I only saw such poisonous weeds in Longzhou..."
The doctor said, "This kind of poisonous herb is usually accompanied by detoxifying herbs and grows on the cliffs. If it is taken internally, symptoms of visceral bleeding will appear within twelve hours. By then, the medicine will be useless."
"There is no cure for the medicine stone?"
Pei Xiangyun grabbed the doctor's collar suddenly, his voice changed: "Don't you have any other options? I warn you, if..."
"Pei Xiangyun..."
Seeing his impetuous appearance, Jiang Yi became angry: "Get back, shame on you."
Pei Xiangyun couldn't hide the fierce light in his eyes: "But..."
"When will you learn to listen to people finish?"
Jiang Yi got angry, touched the wound on his shoulder, and covered his lips and coughed a few times.
Pei Xiangyun saw that his originally pale face was flushed abnormally, and then he loosened the doctor's collar.
The doctor looked at the young man with a fierce face in this song with some fear: "Just now I said that taking twelve hours of medicine internally has no cure, but now this adult is a skin wound caused by an arrow. If you can apply it externally in time to detoxify Herbs are fine."
"Then do you have any antidote herbs?" Pei Xiangyun asked him, "Did you bring it?"
The doctor's face was slumped, and he felt that he was suffering and couldn't tell.
Before he came, he didn't know what kind of poison the patient had, so how could he carry the antidote with him?
The doctor said this truthfully, and then added: "This herb has no other effect except for detoxification, and we never grab it when we collect it in the pharmacy, so..."
Pei Xiangyun experienced a lot of ups and downs in his mood, wishing the old doctor could finish all the words together: "So what?"
"So it may be necessary to go to the nearby cliffs to pick it now..." the doctor said, "There is no other way."
Pei Xiangyun stood up immediately after hearing this: "I'll go..."
"Wait..." Jiang Yi frowned and said, "Can you stop being so impatient? You have been so calm when you were asked to write and meditate?"
Pei Xiangyun bit his lip and looked at him, hiding his surging emotions in his dark eyes.
His current mood is indeed much more stable than in his previous life, but once he encounters something related to Jiang Yi, he will not be able to calm down no matter what.
He didn't dare to think that the teacher might have another accident in front of him, and even the thought of it would make him extremely frightened.
The doctor didn't know the relationship between the two, so he just said in a whisper: "The poisonous weed and the detoxifying weed grow on a nearby stone wall. There is a notch on the stone wall for people to stay in. Be careful. I roughly Draw a map and tell you what the poisonous weed looks like."
"understood……"
Pei Xiangyun got up and took off the heavy clothes on his body, leaving only a thin and strong dress.
He glanced at Jiang Yi and said in a low voice, "Master, wait for me to come back."
"Little brother, the rock wall is very steep, so be careful..." The doctor said worriedly, "If it doesn't work, go tomorrow morning. I'm afraid you won't be able to see where you are staying when it is late at night."
Pei Xiangyun didn't answer any more, remembering that Jiang Yi said not to disturb other people, when he rushed to the door, he suddenly turned his foot and turned out of the window.
There was no one on the road, only the dim lights of houses not far away, but still not as bright as a county magistrate's mansion.
Pei Xiangyun turned his head to look at the county magistrate's mansion behind him, which can be called a "huge monster", and a trace of doubt suddenly flashed in his heart——
I heard from the teacher that Chengdeng County had been hit by floods and had no money to relieve the disaster, so it should be that the county magistrate down to the ordinary people are poor and have little money, so why is the county magistrate's mansion built so majestic and majestic?
He hid in the shadow of the eaves for a while, and only after the watchman passed by did he climb out of the courtyard wall against the base of the wall.
The doctor had just sketched a topographic map in the house and handed it to him, telling him to go straight along this road, and when he left the place where there were houses, he would be able to see the cliff that the doctor mentioned.
Pei Xiangyun walked for about an hour before arriving at the foot of the mountain.
This mountain was indeed different from what he had seen usually. There were few trees, and there were more strangely shaped stone cones with torches tied to them.
It should be used to guide people.
Pei Xiangyun took out a short dagger from his pocket, pinned it on his waist, then grabbed a vine hanging from the stone wall, and slowly climbed up by stepping on those grooves.
There are no dense trees or shrubs growing on the stone wall, only some grass and unknown flowers drilled from the cracks in the stone.
The stone trough for people to step on has been polished smooth, and it seems that people often go up and down from here. It is not difficult to deduce that these seemingly inconspicuous flowers and plants may be used as medicine.
And the doctor said that the detoxifying herb grows very much like weeds, and there will be some white flowers around it, and that flower is the culprit of the teacher's poisoning.
Thinking of Jiang Yi, his originally calm heart became a little impatient.
The doctor said that after twelve hours of taking the poison internally, the poison will develop. What about the external injury?
Pei Xiangyun silently counted the time since he met those bandits, and couldn't help feeling more anxious.
He had to go back before dawn.
As soon as this thought came to him, he accelerated his climbing speed, and he climbed halfway up the mountain in a short while, and saw the clusters of medicinal herbs surrounded by clusters of white flowers.Not daring to delay, he took the short dagger from his waist and carefully cut off the small clump of herbs.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
A black shadow flitted viciously, screaming and rushing towards Pei Xiangyun.
He was so focused on the life-saving herb that he was caught off guard by the black shadow. He subconsciously tried to hide, but he forgot that he was on a steep cliff, and fell backwards in an instant.
This cliff is five or six feet high, if you fall down like this, you will either die or be disabled.
In the blink of an eye, Pei Xiangyun instinctively grabbed the life-saving vine, barely stopping his falling figure.
And the next moment, the vine couldn't support the sudden brute force, and broke into two pieces from the middle.
Pei Xiangyun closed his eyes subconsciously, thinking that he was about to fall to his death, but landed on a piece of soft ground in a whirl.
The author says:
Today there is only this update but it is two in one, bobobo
Pei Xiangyun groaned incessantly, swelled in pain, and said in a low voice: "Master is fine, let me go."
The more Li Youchuan looked at him, the more suspicious he became, and he refused to let go: "It's nothing, why are you running? Why is your mouth full of blood?"
"I……"
Pei Xiangyun's remaining reason was burned by desire, he just wanted to go to the stream quickly, so he took a shower to calm himself down for a moment, broke free from Li Youchuan's hand, and staggered to the distance.
"Let him go..." Jiang Yi whispered in the car, "I'm fine..."
Li Youchuan felt relieved after hearing his words, and hurried back to the carriage: "Master, what's wrong with him?"
Jiang Yi's brows and eyes looked tired, and he raised his eyelids and glanced at him: "I'm in love."
"Oh, so it's... what did you say, young master?"
Li Youchuan thought he heard it wrong, and stared at Jiang Yi with wide eyes: "What are you talking about?"
"that's not important."
Jiang Yi temporarily covered the wound with a handkerchief, and then put on his clothes slowly: "Go and tell the coachman to rest in a nearby town tonight."
Li Youchuan was still thinking about his vague words, so he frowned and went out of the car again.
Jiang Yi sighed inaudibly, feeling a little headache.
What happened to Pei Xiangyun?
According to his deduction, if Pei Xiangyun really misunderstood something because of his cross-border care in his previous life, it can be said that he has never given Pei Xiangyun any good looks in this life.
Humiliated, beaten and scolded at every turn, he even thought that Pei Xiangyun would hate him, but he didn't expect everything to gradually overlap with his previous life.

He said that he was very similar to his mother, so he always insisted on being his own student, no matter how harshly he was treated, he would not leave.

Pei Xiangyun huddled in the corner, neither advancing nor retreating, he didn't know where to put his hands and feet, so he could only quietly glance at Jiang Yi intentionally or unintentionally.

The pain is naturally painful, but it is much better than the previous tingling numbness.
"I have something to say..." Jiang Yi didn't answer his question, "Don't beat around the bush."
"The student just went to rush... When he rushed to the body, he found a kind of herbal medicine in the woods."
Pei Xiangyun stumbled when he said "rushing", and his cheeks were suddenly red.

The light in Pei Xiangyun's eyes suddenly dimmed, and he murmured: "But..."
You will be hurt.
He didn't say these words, but looked down at the herb in his hand that was so ravaged by the bumps that it couldn't be seen as intact, and the tip of his nose felt a little sore.
Does the teacher not trust him?
Pei Xiangyun glanced at Jiang Yi with those black eyes full of grievances, just in time to meet the man's cold gaze.
Jiang Yi was a little surprised to see the sadness in his eyes.
What's so sad about that?
Now that the bleeding has finally stopped, if Pei Xiangyun is to make a fuss, what other situations will happen if it is not possible to make a fuss.
What's more, according to the map estimate, they will be able to reach the nearest city in less than half an hour.
There is no need.

This county is called Chengdeng County, which is located at the intersection of Longzhou and Yuzhou.

Pei Xiangyun hadn't thought that such a thing would happen before, but when he thought of the embarrassing scene on the road, his heart beat so fast that it seemed to jump out of his throat, and he entered the same room with the teacher almost on the same hands and feet.
The door was gently closed by him, and before he could speak, he heard the man groan.
Pei Xiangyun's heartbeat, which had not yet calmed down, quickly lit up the torch and lit a candle on one side.
The dim candlelight illuminated the room, and Jiang Yi was sitting on the chair next to him, his face was pale and he was covering his left shoulder, his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
"Master..."
Pei Xiangyun hurried over and watched as Jiang Yi carefully unbuttoned his collar, revealing the veil wrapped around the wound.
The veil was originally white, but now stained with blood, it was dyed a dark red.
Jiang Yi originally thought that the wound would heal by itself if he lasted for an hour, but now it seems that is not the case.
The man in black didn't know what kind of poison he had applied to the short arrow. He was afraid that it would seriously affect the healing of the wound and make the blood flow more and more.
Pei Xiangyun stared at the wound closely, his heart slowly fell to the bottom.
"Don't stand there stupidly..." Jiang Yi whispered, "Go and find the doctor."
Pei Xiangyun straightened up with red eyes and was about to leave when he heard the man say, "Don't disturb Mu Hongcai."
Jiang Yi looked at the young man's frizzy back and sighed with some headache.
If he didn't tell him specifically, this wolf cub would probably make a fuss so that the entire county magistrate's mansion would know that he was injured.
He leaned back slightly, leaning against the head of the bed, and suddenly a voice he hadn't heard for a long time sounded in his ear: "Master Jiang, is this injured?"
Jiang Yi was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized who was speaking, with a forced smile on the corner of his lips: "Isn't Mr. Fan busy today? Are you free to come and see me?"
Fan Wujiu's voice was still as old-fashioned and impersonal as usual: "Yes, I have free time today."
"This injury looks a bit serious..." Jiang Yi lightly pressed the bleeding spot, and felt the pain like needle pricks as expected, "Will it kill me?"
"Should not."
"You still comfort people?"
"I didn't comfort you..." Fan Wujiu didn't cause any emotional fluctuations because of what he said, and still said in a rigid manner, "If you are really going to die, then your name will appear in the book of life and death a few days in advance , remind me to come to this world to pick you up."
This place is quite particular.
"Master Jiang is afraid of death?" Fan Wujiu asked, "I never thought that Master Jiang would take life and death so seriously that he even came to ask me."
Jiang Yi closed his eyes slightly tiredly: "It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's that I have some regrets."
In his previous life, he only thought that the fall of Longxi was the trigger for Dayan's downfall, but now that he was alive again, he discovered that there was much more than that hidden behind it.
Under this huge dynasty, there are countless forces with ulterior motives and intricate roots, waiting for the opportunity for them to take advantage of the loopholes.
Jiang Yi finally got a glimpse of the clues of the giant, how could he leave with these regrets?
He was just about to get some words out of Fan Wujiu's mouth, but he heard the door of the bedroom creak.
Pei Xiangyun held an old man by the collar and pushed him into the room, and said in a low voice, "If you dare to shout, I will kill you."
The old man was probably over sixty years old and had a gray beard. He was so frightened by Pei Xiangyun's fierce appearance that he trembled all over, and said in a trembling voice: "I, I..."
Jiang Yi opened his eyes with a headache: "What are you doing again? Let him go."
Seeing the teacher speak, Pei Xiangyun could only reluctantly let go of the old doctor, stepped back a few steps and stood aside and stared at him, maybe the doctor would deal with him on the spot if he did one more action that shouldn't be done.
The doctor glanced at him with some fear, opened his cloth bag, and took out a silver thread and a silver needle from inside.
Knowing that he was about to take his pulse, Jiang Yi rolled up his cuffs and put his wrists flat on his legs.
Although the old doctor looked old, but his hands were very steady, he closed his eyes for a while, and said in a low voice: "This gentleman's pulse is floating and hollow, and his heart rhythm is irregular. I am afraid it is caused by trauma. The air is floating, has your lord been injured recently?"
"I've been hurt by arrows..." Jiang Yi said in a low voice, "I thought the wound was fine, but I didn't expect it to be bleeding all the time. I'm afraid it's because it was painted with poison."
"Is the arrow still there?" the doctor asked, "Can you show me?"
Jiang Yi glanced at Pei Xiangyun who was standing aside, he quickly found a long strip wrapped in cloth from the bag, and carefully handed it to the doctor.
Still have a brain.
Jiang Yi didn't specifically tell him when he was in the carriage, and he didn't have the hope that Pei Xiangyun would remember to bring the arrow back, but now he found that he seemed to have really underestimated the carefulness of this wolf cub.
The doctor took the arrow and carefully put it under the candlelight for a while to examine: "If I'm not mistaken, the arrow is probably painted with a poisonous weed unique to the mountains and fields of Longzhou."
Pei Xiangyun frowned: "What is unique to Longzhou? Are you sure there are no other places?"
"When I was young, I worked as a barefoot doctor for more than ten years. I traveled to countless villages and villages, but I only saw such poisonous weeds in Longzhou..."
The doctor said, "This kind of poisonous herb is usually accompanied by detoxifying herbs and grows on the cliffs. If it is taken internally, symptoms of visceral bleeding will appear within twelve hours. By then, the medicine will be useless."
"There is no cure for the medicine stone?"
Pei Xiangyun grabbed the doctor's collar suddenly, his voice changed: "Don't you have any other options? I warn you, if..."
"Pei Xiangyun..."
Seeing his impetuous appearance, Jiang Yi became angry: "Get back, shame on you."
Pei Xiangyun couldn't hide the fierce light in his eyes: "But..."
"When will you learn to listen to people finish?"
Jiang Yi got angry, touched the wound on his shoulder, and covered his lips and coughed a few times.
Pei Xiangyun saw that his originally pale face was flushed abnormally, and then he loosened the doctor's collar.
The doctor looked at the young man with a fierce face in this song with some fear: "Just now I said that taking twelve hours of medicine internally has no cure, but now this adult is a skin wound caused by an arrow. If you can apply it externally in time to detoxify Herbs are fine."
"Then do you have any antidote herbs?" Pei Xiangyun asked him, "Did you bring it?"
The doctor's face was slumped, and he felt that he was suffering and couldn't tell.
Before he came, he didn't know what kind of poison the patient had, so how could he carry the antidote with him?
The doctor said this truthfully, and then added: "This herb has no other effect except for detoxification, and we never grab it when we collect it in the pharmacy, so..."
Pei Xiangyun experienced a lot of ups and downs in his mood, wishing the old doctor could finish all the words together: "So what?"
"So it may be necessary to go to the nearby cliffs to pick it now..." the doctor said, "There is no other way."
Pei Xiangyun stood up immediately after hearing this: "I'll go..."
"Wait..." Jiang Yi frowned and said, "Can you stop being so impatient? You have been so calm when you were asked to write and meditate?"
Pei Xiangyun bit his lip and looked at him, hiding his surging emotions in his dark eyes.
His current mood is indeed much more stable than in his previous life, but once he encounters something related to Jiang Yi, he will not be able to calm down no matter what.
He didn't dare to think that the teacher might have another accident in front of him, and even the thought of it would make him extremely frightened.
The doctor didn't know the relationship between the two, so he just said in a whisper: "The poisonous weed and the detoxifying weed grow on a nearby stone wall. There is a notch on the stone wall for people to stay in. Be careful. I roughly Draw a map and tell you what the poisonous weed looks like."
"understood……"
Pei Xiangyun got up and took off the heavy clothes on his body, leaving only a thin and strong dress.
He glanced at Jiang Yi and said in a low voice, "Master, wait for me to come back."
"Little brother, the rock wall is very steep, so be careful..." The doctor said worriedly, "If it doesn't work, go tomorrow morning. I'm afraid you won't be able to see where you are staying when it is late at night."
Pei Xiangyun didn't answer any more, remembering that Jiang Yi said not to disturb other people, when he rushed to the door, he suddenly turned his foot and turned out of the window.
There was no one on the road, only the dim lights of houses not far away, but still not as bright as a county magistrate's mansion.
Pei Xiangyun turned his head to look at the county magistrate's mansion behind him, which can be called a "huge monster", and a trace of doubt suddenly flashed in his heart——
I heard from the teacher that Chengdeng County had been hit by floods and had no money to relieve the disaster, so it should be that the county magistrate down to the ordinary people are poor and have little money, so why is the county magistrate's mansion built so majestic and majestic?
He hid in the shadow of the eaves for a while, and only after the watchman passed by did he climb out of the courtyard wall against the base of the wall.
The doctor had just sketched a topographic map in the house and handed it to him, telling him to go straight along this road, and when he left the place where there were houses, he would be able to see the cliff that the doctor mentioned.
Pei Xiangyun walked for about an hour before arriving at the foot of the mountain.
This mountain was indeed different from what he had seen usually. There were few trees, and there were more strangely shaped stone cones with torches tied to them.
It should be used to guide people.
Pei Xiangyun took out a short dagger from his pocket, pinned it on his waist, then grabbed a vine hanging from the stone wall, and slowly climbed up by stepping on those grooves.
There are no dense trees or shrubs growing on the stone wall, only some grass and unknown flowers drilled from the cracks in the stone.
The stone trough for people to step on has been polished smooth, and it seems that people often go up and down from here. It is not difficult to deduce that these seemingly inconspicuous flowers and plants may be used as medicine.
And the doctor said that the detoxifying herb grows very much like weeds, and there will be some white flowers around it, and that flower is the culprit of the teacher's poisoning.
Thinking of Jiang Yi, his originally calm heart became a little impatient.
The doctor said that after twelve hours of taking the poison internally, the poison will develop. What about the external injury?
Pei Xiangyun silently counted the time since he met those bandits, and couldn't help feeling more anxious.
He had to go back before dawn.
As soon as this thought came to him, he accelerated his climbing speed, and he climbed halfway up the mountain in a short while, and saw the clusters of medicinal herbs surrounded by clusters of white flowers.Not daring to delay, he took the short dagger from his waist and carefully cut off the small clump of herbs.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
A black shadow flitted viciously, screaming and rushing towards Pei Xiangyun.
He was so focused on the life-saving herb that he was caught off guard by the black shadow. He subconsciously tried to hide, but he forgot that he was on a steep cliff, and fell backwards in an instant.
This cliff is five or six feet high, if you fall down like this, you will either die or be disabled.
In the blink of an eye, Pei Xiangyun instinctively grabbed the life-saving vine, barely stopping his falling figure.
And the next moment, the vine couldn't support the sudden brute force, and broke into two pieces from the middle.
Pei Xiangyun closed his eyes subconsciously, thinking that he was about to fall to his death, but landed on a piece of soft ground in a whirl.
