Chapter 11: Big black pot, kick back

Views:

Seeing that there was no one around, Gu Feiyan hurried to the window of the medicine cooking tent and leaned against the wall to eavesdrop. Soon, she heard the voices of Eunuch Wu and a servant.

"Why did the medicine dregs disappear after such a short period of time? Think about it, where did the medicine dregs go?"

"Elder-in-law, the medicine dregs put here are not boiled a second time, they must have been dumped into the river by servants."

"In the river?"

"Isn't it? General Cheng has used too much medicine recently, and he poured it all into the river as soon as he used it up. It's the river behind the camp."

"Can I get it back?"

"This... Father-in-law, isn't that medicine dregs useless? The river is so fast that it might have been washed away long ago, right? Eunuch, you want medicine dregs, is it useful?"

"It's a lot of trouble! Our family tells you that today's matter is not allowed to be leaked, otherwise, be careful with your head!"

Gu Feiyan rejoiced while listening.

She was so angry with Mrs. Lin that she forgot such an important thing as medicine dregs! Fortunately, those drug residues have been disposed of long ago, otherwise, Eunuch Wu would be able to find out the truth once he took it to the pharmacist.

This Eunuch Wu must have been instigated by others, except for the emperor, who in the palace would dare to attack General Cheng and push the blame on her

Gu Feiyan took out the prescription from her sleeve, her eyes slowly narrowed into two straight lines.

Although her impression of Mrs. Lin was terrible, she resolutely carried out the principle of treating one thing with another. Such a big scapegoat can't just be left alone, it must be kicked back to the murderer! If she wants to play dirty, she wants to see who is better than whom!

It was night, and Imperial Physician Su arrived at the barracks to feel General Cheng's pulse. Standing behind him, Gu Feiyan secretly stuffed the tampered prescription into his medicine box while everyone was not paying attention.

With Imperial Physician Su's temperament, once he finds something wrong with the prescription, he will secretly remind General Cheng. Rumor has it that this young general is a rebellious, unrestrained and unrestrained tough man, except for the emperor and His Highness Prince Jing, he will not accept anyone. If he wakes up and knows that someone is still hurting him, won't he be on guard? Simply revenge!

After covering the medicine box, Gu Feiyan turned her head to look at Mrs. Lin, then at General Cheng who was still in a coma. The corner of her mouth curled into a harmless arc, and she turned and left quietly, hiding her achievements and fame...

Although General Cheng's condition has improved, it is still not very stable. Imperial Physician Su stayed behind, and Mrs. Lin was busy taking care of her son, so she didn't bother Gu Feiyan. Gu Feiyan slipped outside the tent and struck up a conversation with the eunuch accompanying Doctor Su.

The original owner's memory has very little knowledge about Xuan Kongda. She had long wanted to find someone to find out something, but unfortunately no one in the barracks paid any attention to her.

After some chatter, Gu Feiyan basically understood everything she wanted to know.

It turns out that the Xuankong Continent used to be respected by martial arts, and there were many families of martial arts. Ten years ago, a great change occurred, and martial arts declined, forming a situation where imperial power, consortiums, martial arts and many other forces stand together.

This catastrophe is related to the mysterious "sea of ice" in the southernmost part of the mainland. The icy sea was frozen three feet, so cold that ordinary people could not cross it.

Ten years ago, the entire ice sea was infected with three feet of unresolved poison overnight. It was also that night that the true qi of all the qi cultivators in Xuankong Continent disappeared, and Xuankong's martial arts instantly declined. No one knew why, but after that night, the Binghai became a terrifying forbidden place that everyone in Xuankong Continent was talking about. Rumors spread everywhere, and no one dared to approach it, let alone investigate the reason.

Binghai, isn't this the place in her dream

Gu Feiyan said excitedly, "So the Xuankong Continent is on the north coast of the Ice Sea, so where is the south coast of the Ice Sea? Is it called the Ice Sea Spirit Realm?"

"That's another continent called Yunkong. Ice Sea Spiritual Realm... our family has never heard of it." The eunuch looked curious, "Guyao girl, what are you doing asking about these things? Binghai is very evil, listen to it." It is said that he was cursed, let's not talk about it."

Gu Feiyan didn't ask further, she had a premonition in her heart that there might be some relationship between Binghai and Binghai Spiritual Realm. She had to find a chance to get to know the place better.

Master Baiyi dared to deceive her like this, when she had enough wandering in the Xuankong Continent, she would definitely go back and settle accounts with him!

Early the next morning, Gu Feiyan set off for the city.

She thought that this matter basically had nothing to do with her. Unfortunately, when she passed by the place where she was assassinated, she bumped into Cheng Jiajun's deputy general and people from Dali Temple. They surrounded the scene, and Wu Zuo was examining the body.

The deputy general called Gu Feiyan over to question him, but Gu Feiyan didn't think about it, and planned to ask three questions. However, she glanced at it, only to find that the assassin was gone.

What about people

No, what about the corpse

Gu Feiyan asked anxiously, "Lieutenant General, that, that... is the assassin caught?"

The lieutenant said seriously, "When I brought people over, I only saw these corpses. The assassin must have escaped. Judging from the wounds of these corpses, they were all sealed with a sword. This assassin's martial arts is not simple. Gu Yaonu, It’s not easy for you to escape by chance!”

Gu Feiyan's heart skipped a beat, she was in a bad mood!

That assassin's poison resistance is against the sky, isn't it? He was obviously in a coma, so could it be that he didn't die from the poison

The people in Dali Temple asked Gu Feiyan about the appearance of the assassin, and Gu Feiyan wanted to draw a portrait of them on the spot, but she still sensibly endured it. She pretended to remember and said everything she could say.

Gu Feiyan didn't know that the "assassin" was standing on a nearby tree at this time, his face was as cold as ice, staring at her from above...
