Empress Fenghua

Chapter 654 Peerless Secret Way
Su Wen frowned and looked at the person lying on the ground, with a tear streak running down his veiled cheek. Is this the once prosperous frontier town?The ground is full of dying people, and there are fleeing victims everywhere.From time to time, people from Guling would gallop past on horseback and trample on the bodies of the people.

Su Wen clenched her fists tightly, her tattered clothes were no different from ordinary people.Walking through the crowd, he suddenly grabbed his ankle with one hand, startled Su Wen, and hurriedly jumped away.

"Help me..." The man looked like a dehydrated fish, his dry lips were parted, and he couldn't breathe anymore.Su Wen hurriedly knelt down to take his pulse, Su Wen sighed, "Go all the way!" Su Wen helped him close his eyes, raised his head and found a familiar figure among the crowd.

"Ji Shu?" Su Wen ran over quickly, and saw Mo Jishu was boiling medicine for the patient in a simple porridge shed.Seeing Su Wen, he couldn't help being surprised and didn't even take the bowl in his hand.

"Why are you here?" Su Wen looked at him suspiciously, "Aren't you supposed to be in Taihe?"

Mo Jishu frowned, "I should be asking you this, right? What are you doing here? Don't you know how dangerous it is?"

Su Wen sighed, "Since it's dangerous, why are you here?"

The two looked at each other for a while, then burst out laughing.

Tears flashed in Su Wen's eyes, "My good apprentice, although you have poor foundation, poor brain, and poor progress, at least I saw you right! You will definitely inherit my medical skills."

"I heard in Taihe that these three cities were massacred by ancient tombs and caused a plague virus, so I came here, hoping to do something for the people. But I didn't expect to come here, so I felt something It is a real hell on earth!"

"Only one-fifth of the people here are still healthy, and the rest are either dead or sick." Mo Jishu frowned, "My heart seems to be tied by them , so I practice medical treatment here. But this kind of plague seems to be more difficult than imagined. I don’t know where Yuqiao got such a virus. But I know that as long as this disease spreads, the whole Dingguo will be a dead city !"

Su Wen frowned, picked up the medicine bowl and sniffed it, "The medicine is not strong enough! Just now I took the pulse of the patient over there. This plague is very dangerous. If there is no medicine power, I am afraid that the delay will be very short. And This plague is not like an ordinary plague, but the blue colored glaze that Master mentioned in my memory! But it is so different..."

"Bise Liuli?" Mo Jishu frowned, "I've never heard of this name! But judging from the name, it seems to be true." Mo Jishu took two steps forward, pointing to a place in the distance , "That's where the corpses are stored. I piled all the corpses in that cave for research. In order to prevent the spread of the plague virus, I sprinkled medicinal powder in it, but I was surprised to find that it didn't work at all. .All the corpses turned into green water overnight and disappeared!"

Mo Jishu sighed in frustration, "So up to now, I have not found an effective way to treat it!"

"There is a lack of medicinal materials here, and limited treatment conditions, not to mention such a menacing plague!" Su Wen frowned, "I can cure the world's strange poisons and cure all diseases in the world, but this blue colored glaze is the only one that Master has. It didn’t teach me. What’s more, it seems to be a bit different from the blue glass, it seems that only seeing Yuqiao can know how to heal it.”

"Find her?" Mo Jishu shook his head impatiently, "Do you think she will tell you the way to rescue? This matter concerns the world, even if Yuqiao agrees, Situ Ye will not agree. Maybe there is something Things you don't know yet..."

Seeing Mo Jishu's serious expression, Su Wen couldn't help feeling distressed, "What's the matter?"

Mo Jishu looked at her sincerely, "Yuqiao is already Situ Ye's concubine!"

"What?" Su Wen gasped, "Yu Qiao and Situ Ye...then did she ever fall in love with Heenshui?"

Mo Jishu lowered his eyes, "Master, could it be... haven't you seen hate water?"

Su Wen opened his eyes wide, "Have you seen him?"

Su Wen searched all the places they had been to, but found no trace of Henshui at all.So she thought that perhaps Hean Shui still couldn't forget Yuqiao, so she came to the border...

In a dilapidated temple, Su Wen shed two lines of tears when she saw the figure she had been thinking about day and night.Hen Shui looked haggard, and his plain clothes were tattered. His once elegant temperament and noble figure were completely gone, and the scars on his face covered up his handsome appearance.

Su Wen looked at Henshui with his eyes tightly closed, and quickly stepped forward to kneel on the ground, "Henshui..."

As soon as the voice came out, even Su Wen was startled, hoarse and choked up!

Henshui slowly opened his eyes, full of surprise, "Su Wen?"

"It's me!" Su Wen held up his hatred, tears streaming down his face, "Sandan, why did you become like this?"

Henshui smiled slightly, touched Suwen's face, "Fool, don't cry! Am I fine? Why are you crying? I'm not dead yet!"

"If you die, I won't cry!" Su Wen looked up to the sky and wiped his tears, "If you are half dead, I still have to take care of you, so I have to cry!"

Henshui smiled helplessly, "It's not that I have the plague, it's just that I'm not in good health!"

With a slamming sound, the already crumbling door was pushed open, and Mo Jishu's face was serious.

"We need to get out of here quickly!"

Dying people lay on both sides of the desolate street, and a group of soldiers with iron hoofs stepped in, all wearing veils.

"Here, here, and here, all of them will be wiped out!" The leading soldier shouted, "The King of Guling has ordered that all the living people be imprisoned around this city, and the dead and dying will be killed regardless. Collective cremation!"

"Yes!"

There was a burst of wailing, and the flames and blood pierced Su Wen's eyes. Su Wen, who was hiding in the dark, gritted his teeth and shed tears. He wanted to go out, but was held back by the hatred around him.

"Don't be impulsive, you can only save them if you protect yourself!" Hean Shui said in a low voice, "It seems that Guling will send out troops on a large scale, so it will clear these obstacles to prevent the plague from spreading in the army!"

"Send troops on a large scale?" Mo Jishu frowned, "But these three cities have been captured by the ancient mausoleum, and all the soldiers are on the front line of Dingguo outside the three cities, what are they sending troops for? Did the lady win at the front?"

Hen Shui shook his head slowly, "Impossible! Dingguo is now under the restraint of Lingguo, and it is completely impossible to win, even with the help of Xueguo. But Xueguo doesn't seem to have mobilized troops so far. If I guessed it didn't Wrong, I'm afraid that Gu Ling is going to attack the Snow Country, and all of this is thanks to Xiliang Wuyan!"

A murderous intent flashed across Henshui's eyes, "Xiliang Wuyan, Ghost King Mingyue, and Situ Ye, it seems that they have joined forces!"

"Isn't that heavy flower..." Su Wen choked up worriedly, "Isn't it the enemy?"

Henshui and Mo Jishu took Su Wen to an underground tunnel, which was very safe, like a man-made hole.

"Where is this?" Su Wen seemed unable to hear the fighting and wailing outside, but his legs were still weak when he remembered the scene just now!
Mo Jishu breathed a sigh of relief, "This is the underground secret passage that the Second Young Master told me before I came here. He already knew that the ancient tomb would not let it go, so these three cities will definitely become the victims of the ancient tomb. The lady is definitely under attack, even if Xiliang Wuyan will show mercy to her, but she will not let her be with Xue Wuhen. Therefore, in order to avoid disadvantages to the third lady after Xiliang Wuyan captures Dingguo, these The secret passage told me. Through these intricate secret passages, Miss San and Xue Wuhen can be completely escorted to a safe place! But Dichun didn't tell me where that safe place is."

"He said that as long as the third lady enters the secret path, she will discover the mystery of it herself! It is a paradise, the only piece of pure land in the world, and it is the last gift that Dichun left for the third lady!" Mo Jishu smiled beautifully. "I think that must be a beautiful place!"

"Yes! Xanadu is really beautiful, but such a beautiful place is often difficult to reach!" Su Wen said sadly, "Since you know this secret path, why don't you let outsiders in?"

Hean Shui grabbed Su Wen's hand, "Su Wen, when people are on the verge of life and death, they are inhumane. They will trample on each other for their own sake, and even to save their own lives, they will inform the Guling people! So for safety's sake , we can only save their lives, but we can't arrange a better way out for them!" He Shui's eyes looked deep into the secret passage, "Because people came out of it by themselves..."
