The corridor was deep and long, and it seemed like there was no end.
Hu Lan's guards have surrounded the entire prison.
Pei Zhenghuai was still holding the quiet little baby in his arms. Opposite him were guards holding weapons, with spears and arrows pointed at them.
The secret guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion behind them quickly formed a human wall to block Pei Zheng and his companions, and then continued to move slowly towards the door.
Chengfeng also dealt with Hu Lan, rushed over and stood at the front.
After Pei Zheng woke up from his serious injuries, he had no time to recuperate. He first stabilized the situation in the court and overthrew all the Queen's forces in one fell swoop. Even the Queen was deposed from her position as Queen.
In the current imperial court of the Celestial Empire, there is no force that can rival Pei Zheng. He is truly the one with all the power in the government.
Then, regardless of the serious foreign threats facing the Celestial Empire, regardless of which cities the barbarian army had already invaded, and regardless of the emperor's repeated obstructions, he arbitrarily brought his secret guards and traveled thousands of miles into the territory of the foreign race.
If the noise is too loud, it will definitely cause disputes between the Celestial Empire and foreign races, so all this can only be done in secret.
Someone on the other side shouted loudly, then rushed over without caring about his life, and was cut in the throat by Chengfeng's sword.
People on both sides started a melee, and blood and flesh flew everywhere, and the entire aisle was soaked in blood.
The fight was going on in chaos, blood kept splattering. Pei Zheng moved sideways to block it for the person he was holding.
The little guy opened his eyes for a moment, and saw only red everywhere and the cold and handsome chin right in front of him.
"Who are you?"
"Your man."
Pei Zheng tilted his head towards his chest and whispered softly, "Sleep for a while, you'll be fine soon."
The little guy's eyelids were so heavy that he closed them again immediately.
As expected, the melee lasted for a short while before the foreign guards were beaten to pieces by the secret guards.
The cell door was right in front of him. Pei Zheng walked forward and kicked the door open.
The sudden light from outside shone in, and the person in her arms actually reacted, frowning slightly, as if his eyes were hurt by the stabbing.
Pei Zheng looked up.
It was a nice day today. The gentle sunshine shone on the two people at the cell door, giving them a layer of golden edges, beautiful and desolate like a painting.
There was just a man covered in bright red blood, with a cold face as if he was bloodthirsty.
There was already someone outside to meet them.
They killed the new chief of the foreign tribe, killed people in the foreign prison, and kidnapped the serious criminals. It would cause a big sensation from time to time, so they had to find a hiding place first.
The most important thing is that Shen Shijiu and Shen Huan must settle down and receive treatment.
Two carriages drove over, and several people got on and sped away.
The border between foreign races and the Celestial Empire has been closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave.
The carriage had to turn around and head in the opposite direction.
“I know a place to go”
Shen Huan said that her injuries were very serious and she could hardly hold on any longer.
The carriage followed the route Shen Huan said and drove towards the desert area. Near the edge of the desert, there was a forest, and deep in the forest there was a thatched house.
This is where Shen Huan lived among foreigners many years ago. It is very hidden and no one knows about it.
The carriage stopped and Pei Zheng carried Shen Shijiu into the house.
The house was simply furnished but covered in dust.
Pei Zheng ordered his men to spread a soft blanket on the bed, and then gently placed the little man on it.
Shen Huan didn't care about the bleeding wound on his body and hurried to see his little disciple.
She listed a series of medicine names, "We need to get all of these medicines, and also get a set of silver needles, as soon as possible!"
Chengfeng went out immediately.
Not long after, Chengfeng really came back with the medicine. Shen Huan quickly asked someone to boil the medicine, then took out the needle and gave Shen Shijiu an acupuncture treatment.
Shen Shijiu felt as if he had had a big dream. Everything in the dream seemed strange and familiar to him.
His body felt light, one moment it seemed to be floating in the clouds, the next moment it seemed to have fallen heavily into the mud.
There was a blurry figure that kept appearing in front of his eyes, but he couldn't see it clearly. When he reached out to touch it, the figure would suddenly disappear.
The whole world suddenly turned dark, leaving him alone in the empty place. He shouted loudly, but no one responded. He ran forward with all his strength, but could not find any light.
He seemed to be abandoned by the world, standing there alone, confused and not knowing what to do.
At this moment, a little faint light suddenly appeared in the distance, so dim that it was almost invisible.
Shen Shijiu stared at the beam of light without blinking.
The range of the light was slowly expanding, and the surroundings were becoming brighter and brighter.
Feeling a little stinging in his eyes, Shen Shijiu closed his eyes.
When I opened my eyes again, my eyelids felt very heavy and I could only open them slightly.
Someone was calling him in his ear.
"Disciple, disciple, you're awake. That's great. You're finally awake!"
The little guy's eyes were a little dull, and he just stared at Shen Huan with a strange look on his face.
"Come, drink the medicine first to warm your body."
Shen Huan helped him up and fed him medicine, but he couldn't use any strength because of the injury on his arm.
The person next to him took the medicine bowl and said softly, "I'll do it."
Another face appeared in the little man's sight. The man looked at him very gently, let him lean on his chest, and then handed the medicine to his mouth.
"Be good, take the medicine."
The little guy opened his mouth obediently, took a sip of the medicine, and his brows immediately frowned.
''bitter… "
"I know how hard it is, just be good and drink it all up before you feel better."
The little guy continued to swallow all the medicine.
After drinking the water, he lay back on the bed, feeling a little cold and slightly numb all over. He had no feeling and naturally no pain.
He turned over, turned towards the inside of the bed, then pulled his head into the blanket and closed his eyes again.
He had just finished taking the medicine and felt a little hot. He wanted to sleep again.
The two people behind me were whispering something.
"Something's wrong. Why does he seem to not recognize us? I gave him an injection just to stop the bleeding, and I didn't hurt his head."
"How did you get this injury?"
Pei Zheng pointed at the ** man's arm. He had just seen that the wound showed some signs of festering. It was definitely not an ordinary wound.
"It seems that he was caught by someone! Those who were infected with the plague caught him! No wonder he has a high fever and the wound is bleeding.
”
Shen Huan paused, "Oh no, I thought he would be fine after taking the preventive pills, but he was pregnant at the time, and his body is different from that of ordinary people. I'm afraid he has been infected now."
Pei Zheng's eyes changed. "Infected? He just had a miscarriage, and now you're telling me he's infected with the plague?"
Shen Huan blamed herself so much that she didn't even care about Pei Zheng's angry tone.
She originally wanted to bring her little disciple back with her, but so many things happened. She wished she was the one lying in bed now.
"Whatever the method, as long as it can save him, I can do anything, as long as you say it."
Shen Huan's tears flowed out and he shook his head, "No, there is no way, I have no way"
Pei Zheng pulled her up with one hand, "What do you mean you have no way? Aren't you a ghost doctor? Can't you cure the dead? Then save him!"
Shen Huan just shed tears, she really didn't know how to cure this disease. If it was the previous plague, she would have a way to treat it, but she didn't know what Hu Lan had done to those patients. The later plague was more like scurvy. The skin all over the body would ulcerate, the internal organs would corrode, and the patients would bleed from all seven orifices and die.
That is to say, the little man who fell asleep quietly will soon become like this.
And now they are still on the run, and there is no telling when a large group of foreign soldiers may come to find them, and they don’t know if they can escape alive by then.
The corners of Pei Zheng's eyes were slightly red, and veins were all over the back of his hand that was grabbing Shen Huan's collar. He blamed Shen Huan for taking the man away without permission and not protecting him well, but he also blamed himself for why he couldn't take good care of his own people.
Seeing that Shen Huan was having difficulty breathing due to being strangled, Chengfeng hurried over to support Shen Huan from below.
"Master, Master Shen must be feeling bad too."
Pei Zheng looked at Shen Huan and finally let go of his hand.
Shen Huan took a deep breath.
Cheng Feng asked, "Master Shen, is there really no way at all? You are well-informed, don't you have any folk remedies or something like that?"
This sentence actually woke up Shen Huan. She widened her eyes and said, "There is a folk remedy, but no one has ever used it, and I don't have it either."
Chengfeng was somewhat delighted, "What is it? We can try it first."
Shen Huan shook his head, "You can't try, and you only have one chance. If you fail, there will be no chance of coming back."
After saying that, Shen Huan looked at Pei Zheng and said, "That method is to exchange blood."
Blood transfusion means literally that the necrotic blood is released and fresh blood is injected again. If the necrotic blood can be completely removed, the body's symptoms will disappear.
However, this method is extremely risky. It is necessary to find blood that can be mixed with each other, which means that it is necessary to find someone with a close blood relationship to provide fresh blood, and to continue to provide it until all the bad blood in the little man's body is drained.
"How confident are you?" Pei Zheng looked up at Shen Huan.
"It's a one in ten thousand chance, but you have to do it. Otherwise, you will die."
After a long while, Pei Zheng said, "Okay."
Shen Huan immediately ordered someone to bring a bowl full of water. She added some medicine powder into it, then dripped a drop of her own blood into it, and then dripped a drop of the little man's blood into it.
Everyone in the room looked at the two drops of blood in the bowl nervously, but unfortunately, they did not mix.
Shen Huan's eyes dimmed immediately. "No, my blood won't work. I have to find someone else, someone who is related to him by blood and can donate blood to him."
Pei Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
There is probably only one such person in the entire Celestial Empire.
The third princess, Qi Yirou.
But in this critical situation, how can we let Qi Yiru travel thousands of miles to the foreign tribe to donate blood for the little guy
