After noon, the heavy snow finally stopped.
The follow-up troops of Fu Jiajun arrived, and according to Fu Lie's instructions, the army surrounded the entire Kangcheng.
Just as Wen Qingzhu was about to stand up, Fu Lie walked in.
"You want to go out?"
"Well, a man wearing a white fox mask said before that Yao Ban gave the victims a phantom poison. I need to go and see for myself."
Fu Lie glanced behind her. Jiang Yuanhan on the bed had his eyes closed and he didn't look good.
"What about His Highness? Is there no problem?"
Wen Qingzhu turned his head, looked at the sleeping Jiang Yuanhan and said, "His injury is a bit serious and cannot be cured in a few days. Some medicines are not available here yet. I have to contact Miaomiao."
"Then I'll go with you." Fu Lie was worried about her going out alone.
Wen Qingzhu laughed: "You have a lot to do, and Prince Ning will be here soon. You should deal with your affairs first. Yao Ban is not that capable."
After a moment of silence, Fu Lie nodded and left the room with Wen Qingzhu.
When the door was closed, Jiang Yuanhan, who was lying down, slowly opened his eyes and looked sideways at the door.
The hands under the quilt were clenched into fists.
Why! Why is he still so weak!
He couldn't deal with the victims of the disaster in Kangcheng, and he couldn't deal with Yao Ban, and now he was seriously injured and was dragging down his sister!
The intense emotions caused internal injuries, and blood overflowed from the corners of Jiang Yuanhan's mouth again.
Faceless appeared in front of him silently.
"Your Highness, you win this time."
"Won?" Jiang Yuanhan laughed self-deprecatingly.
He looks so miserable now, but he actually won
Seeing that Jiang Yuanhan was a little out of control, Wu Mian immediately explained: "Ye Qian rushed back to the capital. The Emperor has issued a decree that you will take over the affairs of Kangcheng with full authority. Everything will be done according to His Highness's instructions. The news has been sent here, and the imperial edict will be sent soon. .”
"Imperial edict..." Jiang Yuanhan raised his head and looked at the top of the tent and said sarcastically, "Compared to my sister, even if he immediately gives me the throne, I will not be less grateful!"
Wu Mian frowned: "Your Highness! You need to have a good rest! I will ask Zhao'er to serve you. I hope your Highness can think clearly in the past few days, which time is the most important."
Jiang Yuanhan didn't reply, Wu Mian took it as his acquiescence and left again quietly.
Not long after, Zhao'er came in carrying a food box.
She knelt down in front of him in fear and hesitated for a long time before asking calmly: "Your Highness, it's time to take the medicine."
Jiang Yuanhan turned his eyes coldly and shrank in fear, almost knocking over the food box.
His voice was very cold: "What? Are you so afraid of me?"
"No! No!" Zhao'er felt the coldness on Jiang Yuanhan's body getting heavier and hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look into his eyes.
Jiang Yuanhan slowly sat up, reached out and pinched Zhao'er's chin, forcing her to raise her head.
Jiang Yuanhan, who caught Zhao'er's eyes, instantly narrowed his eyes and laughed: "In this case, are you still afraid of me?"
Zhao'er opened his eyes involuntarily, and the dark eye sockets suddenly began to tremble violently.
She saw the thick darkness behind Jiang Yuanhan slowly forming the shape of a black dragon.
In the thick darkness, a pair of bloody eyes suddenly opened, exuding a shocking power.
Zhao'er immediately stopped breathing, rolled his eyes, and fainted from fright.
Jiang Yuanhan looked at Zhao'er, stretched out his hand and carried Zhao'er to the bed.
He gently covered her with a quilt: "Have a good rest, I can't let my sister down, at least I'm still my sister."
Talking on the roof of the house.
Wen Qingzhu looked at the yard. There were more than a dozen people fighting in a ball. Even though their jaws were crooked and their eyes were swollen, they still fought hard.
The surrounding corridors and windows were full of people.
They looked at the fighting crowd with excited faces and kept shouting high and low, wishing they could join everyone.
Several times, someone took a few steps forward uncontrollably.
Just when I was about to get involved, I suddenly felt a cold feeling behind my back.
Looking up, the guards on the surrounding roofs had their bows drawn, ready to fire arrows at any time.
Next to the rockery in the yard, three cold corpses were already lying. Each of them had an arrow stuck in their chest, hitting their heart.
After seeing this, those who wanted to participate resisted the urge and backed out.
Someone who falls will be dragged away immediately. Taking advantage of this opportunity, other people will participate.
There were never more than twenty people fighting.
Wen Qingzhu watched all this silently. Everyone was extremely excited. As long as they were not extremely hungry, they could not wait to fight.
"How long has this been going on?" Wen Qingzhu finally spoke.
The captain of the guard next to him replied: "Since daybreak, my subordinates have tried to prevent them from fighting, but they couldn't hold on for a quarter of an hour. In the end, my subordinates discovered that if a few people were allowed to fight, the majority of them could still control the situation. .”
"Where are the injured people?" Wen Qingzhu glanced at the yard and found that the fallen people quickly disappeared.
"Over there at the medical center." The guard captain pointed in a direction.
Wen Qingzhu nodded and asked them to take care of everything, and then asked Beidou to take her to the medical center.
The only medical clinic still open at this time is Xue's Medical Clinic.
After entering, Wen Qingzhu saw at a glance that Xue Bai was busy.
The room was filled with injured patients.
Not long after, Xue Qing opened the curtain and came out. Seeing her coming, she hurried over.
"Madam, why are you here?"
Wen Qingzhu directly explained his purpose of coming: "I want to see those younger refugees."
"Madam, you mean those who were seriously injured in the fight and were sent here?" Xue Qing immediately understood what she meant.
Wen Qingzhu nodded, and Xue Qing turned around and led her towards the backyard.
After arriving, we came to the door of a side room.
Xue Qing stepped forward and pushed the door open, and Wen Qingzhu saw that it was filled with hospital beds. The people lying on them had their hands and feet helped, and their mouths were gagged.
Even so, they still looked at the people around them, staring and growling.
Wen Qingzhu walked in and stopped in front of the nearest patient.
The shadow was cast on him, causing him to turn around again. When he met Wen Qingzhu's eyes, the man's body froze.
Wen Qingzhu reached out and looked at his pupils, then turned to look at Xue Qing and Beidou's eyes.
Something is different.
Looking back, Wen Qingzhu took out a silver needle and pricked the man in front of him.
Soon the man slowly became quiet and his eyes were a little confused.
"Is there anything else strange about their bodies?" Wen Qingzhu turned around and asked.
Xue Qing pondered for a while, shook his head and said: "I have carefully checked them all. Their physical fitness is good, there is no big problem, but their tempers are extremely irritable and they want to fight anytime, anywhere. They are the kind of people who can do anything with just a glance. In a state of fighting."
"It seems that what that person said is true." Wen Qingzhu murmured to himself.
But she has never heard of this kind of poison
At this moment, Xue Miaomiao's voice came from outside.
"Xue Qing! I'm here! My brother-in-law said that my cousin is here with you. Where is my cousin?"
Wen Qingzhu immediately turned around and was about to walk out when he found someone standing next to Xue Miaomiao.
This man came forward and bowed his hands in a friendly manner: "I have met Madam."
Xue Miaomiao walked up quickly, stood next to Wen Qingzhu, pointed at the person in front of her and said, "Cousin! Thanks to Mr. Pei this time, I was able to get to Kangcheng so smoothly!"
Wen Qingzhu turned his head and smiled at her, then looked back, and his smile immediately faded: "Mr. Pei, you are at leisure."
"Madam, I was joking. I just met Miss Xue by accident on the way to Kangcheng." Pei Yi laughed and explained briefly.
Wen Qingzhu didn't believe him at all: "No need to say more, you have nothing to do here, you can go back first."
But Pei Yi shook his head: "Madam, there is no need to rush to say this. Yao Ban has other plans. Madam will always need me when she needs me. I will leave first and wait for Madam at Donglin Inn in Kangcheng. .”
Without waiting for Wen Qingzhu to reply, Pei Yi smiled at Xue Miaomiao, turned around and left quickly with a smile.
As soon as he left, Wen Qingzhu turned around and asked seriously: "Tell me carefully, why did you come here so quickly? How did you meet Pei Yi?"
"Cousin, do you think he is a bad person?" Xue Miaomiao looked at the direction Pei Yi left, feeling very puzzled.
Wen Qingzhu said earnestly: "He is not a bad person, but if he really wants to do something bad, even I may not be able to stop him! But one thing, I am sure, he definitely has another purpose in approaching you!"
"Is this so?" Xue Miaomiao looked a little disappointed.
Wen Qingzhu couldn't say too much about Pei Yi, so he could only tell her repeatedly to stay away from Pei Yi as much as possible.
Xue Miaomiao finally nodded, and Wen Qingzhu felt relieved.
Then he asked: "I wrote two letters to you, one about phantom poison, and the other about the need for some special medicinal materials. Have you received them?"
"Two letters?" , we encountered some dangers on the way, and when we were about to arrive in Cannes, we were almost caught by refugees, but fortunately Mr. Pei appeared in time and saved us."
"Are you sending Ning Ping back? Why don't you send Brother Xie?" Wen Qingzhu felt a little strange.
Xue Miaomiao said confidently: "Why can't I! I am also very powerful! Brother Fei Shen seems to have discovered something is wrong and has to go to the northwest, so I can only see Ningping off."
"Northwest? What did he say before leaving?" Wen Qingzhu thought that Graceful came from the Western Region.
Xue Miaomiao shook her head, but she added: "I have learned about phantom poison before. Now that I am here, I just want to help you take a look."
Wen Qingzhu didn't have time to think about it, so he could only follow Xue Miaomiao and start checking these patients.
After reading everything, Xue Miaomiao looked very solemn.
After a long while, she slowly said: "This kind of phantom poison is not something I have seen before. This kind of poison seems to be more subtle. It seems to only destroy people's minds and does not seem to cause any harm to people's bodies."
"This phantom poison should have come from Tianzhu." Wen Qingzhu thought of Graceful's identity and said.
"Tianzhu? Isn't that the west of the Western Region?!" Xue Miaomiao exclaimed, her eyes kept turning, as if she remembered something.
Suddenly, she grabbed Wen Qingzhu's hand: "It's Mandala!"
"What?" Wen Qingzhu was very unfamiliar with this name.
Xue Miaomiao began to get excited, turned to look at a room full of patients and said, "This is the name of a flower in Tianzhu, called Datura flower. Its pollen is poisonous. Ingestion or touching may cause serious illness." The body becomes paralyzed and hallucinations gradually occur.”
"But they're not physically paralyzed? They're just extremely irritable and aggressive!"
"That's right!" Xue Miaomiao looked at Wen Qingzhu and replied, "Dandala is a poison extracted from the pollen of Datura. It no longer has the effect of paralyzing the body, but has the effect of lifting people's spirits. It seems that it was originally used For the soldiers at war."
Xue Miaomiao scratched her head, not remembering clearly: "The book my grandpa asked me to read previously recorded the origin of this poison, and also explained the background in detail. It seems that there is an antidote, but I forgot .”
