Chapter 158: Strange grass

Views:

Mei Changsu went to the East Palace, and when he came back, his expression was obviously abnormal, but he was just holding on to himself. He just drank the medicine, and then vomited all of it, and finally brought out two mouthfuls of blood. Everyone was so frightened, he himself But said it was fine. Dr. Yan came to give him acupuncture, first fell asleep peacefully, and then Lin Chen called Fei Liu to ask, but the child didn't know anything, so he said "Buddha Tooth! Sleeping! No!" Wake up!" No matter how clever Lin Chen was, he frowned and thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure it out.

"Buddha Tooth is a warrior wolf originally raised by His Royal Highness Prince Jing. He is very close to the young marshal," Wei Zheng and Nie Feng walked out of Mei Changsu's bedroom lightly, and brought Lin Chen to the courtyard, saying, "Listen to what Feiliu means, probably because Buddha Tooth died, the young marshal is very sad..."

Lin Chen shook his head, "I'm afraid it wasn't for this. He didn't get to this point again when he thought about the wolf's old love. If the prince died suddenly today, and many years of hard work went to waste, it would be more or less the same."

Nie Feng didn't get along with Lin Chen for a long time, and was not used to his open-mouthed way of speaking, so he stared at him with wide eyes. Wei Zheng frowned and said, "Young Master Lin, you are a little bit taboo when you speak, okay?"

"What did I say?" Lin Chen shrugged, "If His Royal Highness is the real dragon, how can I curse him with this mouth? Don't rush around in the yard, Changsu has a tough heart, and he himself I'm trying to adjust my emotions to avoid hurting my body, it's a good thing to vomit those two mouthfuls of blood, and I can't die today."

The more he talked, the more exaggerated it was, but no one in the entire Su residence could do anything to him. The two old generals of Chi Yan stared at him for a while, but they had no choice but to pretend they didn't hear him. In the evening, Mei Changsu got up and ate some food. He went to the courtyard to play the qin, who knew that when the melody of the qin was turning to the highest level, the string suddenly broke. He made a thin slit with his finger, and the dark red blood beads condensed. He sat silently in the moonlight. With her face as ice as ice, bystanders did not dare to approach, only Lin Chen sighed and asked, "Changsu, is your blood still red?"

Mei Changsu smiled lightly. Said: "This blood is still strong, this body is still... Lin Chen, my arrogance has declined recently, and I am only entangled in the half-hearted field. A trace of grief will make you laugh."

Lin Chen looked up at the sky and said for a while, "I've always been arrogant, and I want to laugh at the ridiculous things in the world. You worry too much in your heart, and there are indeed many things that can make me laugh. But I always find it hard to laugh at you, Do you know why?"

Mei Changsu picked up the broken string and looked at it, and answered the word "know" lightly. He didn't say any more, got up and went back to his room. Lin Chen lowered his head. Walk slowly to the outer courtyard. Bystanders were confused and worried. Then he pushed Wei Zheng to ask, Lin Chen smiled for a moment, and said, "Don't worry, Chang Su is fine, and even if he has something to do, how can we help?"

Wei Zheng was in a hurry and was about to refute when Lin Chen suddenly said loudly: "It's a good night, a good wind and a good moon, but Chang Su's ignorant person went to bed, everyone, don't follow him, come and accompany me to a bar?"

Li Gang and Zhen Ping saw him quarreling again, knowing that he couldn't ask anything out of his mouth today, they all slipped away, only Nie Feng was inexperienced and was held back by him, Wei Zheng had no choice but to accompany him , The three of them went to the kitchen to fetch wine and food, and started drinking and pouring under the stone table and stone bench outside the courtyard, chatting all over the world.

After drinking three pots of wine, everyone's interest increased. Even Nie Feng said something in vague syllables and gestures. Wei Zheng's face was drinking like a Guan Gong, and he pulled Lin Chen and said, "Young Master Lin, our young commander. ... it's rare to have you... this, such a friend... please... "

"I know, I know," Lin Chen's eyes were like stars, and he was not drunk at all. Looking at the wine glass in his hand, he shook it gently, "Where can I use you please? Although I haven't been with you for a long time, it is still a friendship of more than ten years. …”

Wei Zheng wiped his face, and was about to say something when he heard fast footsteps outside the courtyard. As he approached, he could hear Li Gang saying as he walked, "It's here, they are drinking in the courtyard..."

Before he finished speaking, a figure rushed in and rushed straight towards Lin Chen, grabbing him tightly and shaking his arm vigorously, shouting in a very excited tone: "I found it, I found it!"

Lin Chen blinked, but did not struggle, and asked calmly, "What did you find?"

"Bing Xucao, Bing Xucao!" The person who came here was full of dust, his lips were dry and blistered, but his eyes were shining and his emotions were extremely high. I bottled it in a glass bottle, I was very careful, and the roots were not damaged..."

"Nie Duo?" Wei Zheng was full of surprise, most of the time he had sobered up, "How could it be you? When did you come here? You are not allowed to come?"

"I'll tell you later," Nie Duo didn't have time to pay attention to him, he put the small glass bottle he took out of his arms into Lin Chen's hand, and asked eagerly, "Can you confirm, this is Bingxucao?"

Lin Chen glanced casually and nodded.

Nie Duo let out a long sigh, then turned to Wei Zheng and said, "Listen to Li Gang, my eldest brother is here, why didn't you see him?"

Wei Zheng's eyes slid slightly to the left, and Nie Duo's eyes immediately chased after him. In fact, when he just rushed in, Jomo also saw a person sitting in the shadow next to him, but in a vague glance, the figure and appearance did not make him realize that this person was his brother at the moment. Looking closely, his eyes immediately turned red, he immediately bowed his knees, and called out in a sullen voice, "Big brother... Nie Feng stood up to support his brother, but he didn't speak because he was afraid that he would hear his harsh, hoarse voice. Instead, he pulled him into his arms and hugged him hard. Since they had already received news from each other, the excitement and pain were not too severe, but when they stared at each other face to face, the two brothers couldn't help but get wet eyes. After a long while, Nie Duo took a deep breath, helped his elder brother sit down again, and said with a smile, "I think eldest brother is recovering well, maybe it won't be long before he can punch me three feet away again. "

"You're still laughing," Wei Zheng came over and punched him first, "Young marshal didn't let you come, why did you disobey?"

"I'm here to deliver the herbs," Nie Duo said confidently, "Young Master Lin knows that herbs are very important to the young marshal, right?"

Wei Zheng looked sideways at the glass bottle in Lin Chen's hand. My heart moved, and I hurriedly asked, "Young Master Lin, what kind of herb is this. Does it have a miraculous effect?"

Lin Chen didn't answer his question, and put the bottle on the stone table with his backhand. Looking at Nie Duo: "Bingxiu grass is a rare herb that can't be found. You must have taken a lot of danger and spent a lot of hard work to find these two trees?"

"No, no," Nie Duo waved his hand hastily. "I'm lucky, I didn't expect to find it."

Lin Chen was silent for a moment, sighed softly, and said, "Nie Duo, I really don't want to disappoint you, but... Who told you that Bingxucao is useful for Xiaoshudi's disease?"

"It's the old pavilion master!" Nie Duo's group of joy suddenly turned cold, and his face changed, "Young Master Lin, Lin Chen. What are you talking about? What disappointment? It was the old pavilion owner who told me that there was only ice. Continued grass can treat the cold in the young marshal's body, don't you know how to use it

"Nie Duo." Lin Chen lowered his eyes, "When did my father tell you about the Bingsucao?"

"It was that year. I was ordered to accompany the old pavilion master to go out to sea to find the island. On the deck, he drank a little wine. We chatted and chatted, the old man inadvertently mentioned that in the Langya library, there was a record of Bingxu grass to heal the fire. The precedent of cold poison, but when he woke up the next day, he didn't recognize it, saying it was nonsense after being drunk, but before I went to Yunnan this time, I went to your library to check other materials, and I turned it over by accident. There is really such a record. , even the graphics...”

"Yes," Lin Chen nodded, "there is indeed such a record, and I know it. But have you ever thought, since there is such a miracle drug, why my father and I have been refusing to tell you all these years, let you to look for?"

"It is said in the book that this grass grows in the Poisonous Pond, and it is often difficult to find a single plant even if someone loses his life. I guess it may be that the young marshal does not want us to take risks for him, so he is not allowed to say it..."

Lin Chen squinted at him and said, "You really know how to guess. If he is not allowed to say it, we dare not say it? You treat me like my father and your group. No matter what he orders, we will be obedient?"

"Young Master Lin..."

"We never say it because we know it's useless to say it." Lin Chen's face couldn't help but show a sullen look, "Since it's useless, why say it to make everyone worry about it." Nie Duo stomped his feet in a hurry. : "Why is it useless? Someone has cured it..."

"It was cured, but do you know how it was cured?" Lin Chen looked at the strange herbs in the glass vase with branches and leaves stretched out, and sighed again, "The therapy is recorded in another book, and it is necessary to find ten kung fu masters. Those who are full of qi and blood will exchange blood with the sick. After washing, the sick can be reborn, but these ten blood donors will not only suffer, but will eventually die of blood. Simply put, use iced grass to save People, it is ten lives for one life."

Without thinking about it, Nie Duo tightened his hand on Lin Chen's arm and said loudly, "Change your life, change your life, I'm willing!"

"I would too!" Wei Zheng said immediately.

"I know you are willing," Lin Chen looked at the two of them quietly and said, "It is not difficult at all to find ten people who are willing to die for Chang Su, but have you ever thought about whether Chang Su is willing?" Not in the dark…”

"No. Both parties must maintain absolute concentration and sobriety throughout the whole process, and neither party can hesitate. It can even be said that the sick take their own initiative to suck their blood from the ten people who have their lives..." Lin Chen's tone was very light, but there was an indescribable sadness, "You are the people who know Changsu best. If you want him to do this, you might as well kill him first..."

Nie Duo's knees softened and he fell on the stone bench.

"The man who was cured of Huohan Poison a hundred years ago took away the blood of ten brothers who were willing to give their lives for him," Lin Chen turned around and didn't look at him, and continued, "He got his life, but discarded it. On the contrary, Chang Su never considered this last way to save his life, but what he saved was the brotherhood that he valued the most in this world... Life and morality, if you get this, you will lose your life. He, if you are willing to choose which side, just look at your heart."

"But... but..." Wei Zheng clenched his fists and hissed, "Why do people who only think about their own lives can live, but the young marshal can't bear to hurt us but must die? How cruel is God to arrange such a choice, it's fair. Where is it?"

"I have asked similar questions before, and even my father couldn't answer me, but Chang Su said that in the eyes of the world, life and death are big things, but in the eyes of God, the world is huge and boundless. In the vast universe, the fairness of all living beings is definitely not reflected in the length of a certain person's lifespan. The so-called gain must have losses. Although the person who survived in the past lost his life, isn't what he lost more important than life? ?" Lin Chen kept smiling, but his eyes shone with water, "Listen to what he said, you will soon become a Buddha. If you can understand his thoughts, don't use your loyalty to toss him. , he won't agree. Instead, he has to spend the little energy left to persuade you. Why bother? If you force him to realize it like this, I'm afraid that people will become monks before they die..."

When Lin Chen said this, he tried his best to squeeze a mocking sneer on the corner of his lips, but the muscles on his cheeks were not very obedient, so he had to grab the jug and take a few sips, saying: "Don't be sad, this grass is not completely useless. I can use it for a while longer." After speaking, he shoved the bottle into his arms, patted the front of his shirt and left alone.
