Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 347 Colorless, Odorless and Poisonous

The night is dark and the moon is bright, and the residual branches and shrubs form a cobweb-like picture, and everything around is like a ghostland.

Baili Jiuge ran a few steps with all his strength, and the monster in the water suddenly jumped out, like a dragon, jumped in front of her, and plunged into the darkness.

The airflow generated by the monster's movement was so powerful that it all slapped on Baili Jiuge's body, and she was almost thrown away.

When he stood still again, the surrounding was eerily quiet.In the whirling snowy night, the white monster was no longer seen. There was a sound from a distance, it was clear and cold, and the dazzling silver was reflected in Baili Jiuge's eyes.

She realized that it was the silver jewelry on the corner of Han Chan's skirt.

Han Chan has gone far away, with that unimaginable monster...

Baili Jiuge stood stunned in the quiet snowy night.I couldn't believe how Han Chan, who had no martial arts, suddenly disappeared.And what worried Baili Jiuge even more was, what kind of Gu worm was that huge silkworm-like monster?Why did Han Chan come here?

All these questions made Baili Jiuge spin around.

Suddenly, she heard shouts from the tower.

"Elder Concubine!"

It turned out that the soldiers guarding the city were calling her. This place is some distance from the city gate, and the soldiers just noticed that she was standing by the Dan River.

Baili Jiuge regained consciousness, the cold sweat on his body was blown by the night wind, and it was cold to the bone marrow.Feeling a little uneasy, she wanted to go back and tell Mo Li about the matter.

Just like that, he hurried back to Shaocheng, and in the turret of the city, he saw Mo Li hugging Jin'er, whispering something to Gu Yan at the same time.

"Mo Li." Baili Jiuge hurried over, hugged Jin'er, and then hurriedly said what happened just now.

As she was talking, she felt that Mo Li's eyes were anxious looking at her, Bai Li Jiu Ge was embarrassed, and then she was put into Mo Li's arms, accepting his heart-wrenching reprimand.

He couldn't see her being in danger when he was not around, even if it was a near miss.

When Baili Jiuge finished speaking, he saw Danjiang from the corner of his eye and was startled, "Mo Li, Guyan, look at the color of Danjiang..."

Why is it really red? !So she didn't miss it just now!But at this moment, looking down from a high position, you can see it very clearly.The ice and snow on the river are reflected red by the river water, the red color is like blood...

"Go and see."

Mo Li's nerves tensed up when such a strange thing happened suddenly.He was always calm, called General Zhang and a dozen soldiers over, and accompanied by Baili Jiuge and Guyan, they went out of the city together.

The night outside the city was cold, Baili Jiuge hugged her waist tightly, watched Mo Li walk slowly to the river bank, slowly lowered her body, stretched out her hand under her sleeve, and was about to stick out of the water.

However, at this moment, among the dozen or so soldiers accompanying him, someone suddenly groaned, then cried out in pain, and fell to the ground.

Such a change shocked the rest of the people, several soldiers went to help the man, but before they could help him up, they also fell to the ground in pain, convulsing and convulsing.

"You!" General Zhang was shocked.

Mo Li's hand that was about to plunge into the water also stopped in mid-air.He got up and calmly issued the order: "Call someone, and send them to the military medical office."

"The last general knows." General Zhang hurriedly called a soldier beside him who was fine to call for someone.

But just as the soldier was about to return to the city, he saw the city gate opened again, and a soldier ran out anxiously, shouting: "His Royal Highness and Concubine, it's not good! Many brothers fell ill suddenly just now, and now Several brothers are already dead!"

What?Baili Jiuge only felt a stick in the heart.Suddenly fell ill, is this the plague or poisoning?

She looked at the soldiers who were still struggling on the ground in surprise. They were also like this, and they suddenly became like this. This...what the hell is going on?

After a while, someone rushed out of the city, picked up the fallen soldiers, and hurriedly sent them back to the city.The incident happened so suddenly that Mo Li didn't bother to check the abnormality of the river for a while, so he let Gu Yan go back with her arms in his arms, and hurried back to Shaocheng with Baili Jiuge.

That night, [-]% of the soldiers guarding Shaocheng fell ill, and even two military doctors fell ill.

The few remaining military doctors were so busy that they couldn't do it at all. They watched the soldiers get seriously ill and some died, but there was nothing they could do.

Because the military doctors were afraid of the plague, when Mo Li and Baili Jiuge arrived, the military doctors were so scared that they quickly stopped them.

"His Royal Highness, Imperial Concubine, don't come in, don't come in!"

Mo Li's brows were frowned, at this moment, his soldiers suddenly encountered a disaster and their lives were uncertain, how could he only care about his own safety?
Rejecting the military doctor with gestures, Mo Li was about to persuade Baili Jiuge to leave, but there was a small hand that was familiar with warmth, holding his hand tightly, and vowed not to let go.

Mo Li's heart warmed up, and he asked the military doctor, "Can't you find out the reason?"

The military doctor sighed: "Your Highness, the humble officers have tried their best. These soldiers don't know what's going on, and the time intervals between the onsets are not long. It is said that the whole body hurts like being cut by a knife, and you can still feel that life is coming together. Little by little. I have never heard of such a sick feeling before!"

Mo Li's eyes sank deeply, he suddenly thought of something, and his eyes were a little stern.

"Moli..." Baili Jiuge called him.

Her body trembled a little, and her heart was as shocked as a boat capsized.Because of the illness reported by the military doctor, she had heard of it before.

My whole body hurts like a knife, and I can still clearly feel that my life is passing by little by little. Is this kind of sick feeling...

Baili Jiuge rushed to a soldier who was struggling in pain, lowered his body and asked, "Do you feel like your internal organs are being pulled away, and your joints are so cold?"

"Yes, yes..."

"There is also blood. Do you feel that the blood in your body is out of control, like... getting hot?"

"Yes, exactly!"

Baili Jiuge's body shook.The various illnesses described by the soldiers were all consistent with her guess.But if she really guessed right...she would rather guess wrong!

"Mo Li..." Baili Jiuge stood up, turned her eyes, a cruel feeling stirred her heart, she asked: "Mo Li, have you heard of such a sickness..."

"Hmm..." Mo Li replied heavily.He has also walked the rivers and lakes for many years, so how could he not have heard of it?

It is a rare and frightening poison. It is said that even Ying Chang'an, a venomous poison doctor, would find it difficult to detoxify.

The poison also has a bloody name.

Unanimously, the two people whose eyes met read out the name: "The River is full of blood."

The river is full of blood.

Toxic.

Colorless and odorless.

Just pour a jar of poison into the river, and the river will turn red at night, and the deeper the night, the redder the river, like blood.

It is said that people who ingest this poison will be poisoned when the river water is completely turned into blood, and all symptoms are like torture in purgatory.Then the poisoned person will die slowly. Ordinary people can persist for three hours at most, while those with poor physique will die within a stick of incense.

Baili Jiuge's body trembled, the blood in the river was poisonous in the water, and most of the drinking water for the soldiers was taken from the Danjiang River. They drank Danjiang water during the day, and when the river turned red It's all poisonous...

Wait……

Baili Jiuge realized a more serious matter, "No, the water for the people of Shaocheng is also taken from the Danjiang River!"

The military doctor turned pale with shock.

Mo Li hurriedly said to a soldier, "Go and have a look."

But before the soldiers rushed out, someone rushed in out of breath, "His Royal Highness, it's not good! Many people have fallen ill!"

Baili Jiuge couldn't help clenching his fists.Once the poison of Manjiang Xueyan occurs, it can only persist for three hours at most.If you can't take the antidote within three hours, it's over.

It is said that the antidote is quite difficult to prepare, and even Ying Chang'an will have a headache for it. In the whole world, only senior ghost doctors know the formula of the antidote...

Mo Li is already arranging people who are not poisoned by drinking water to take care of the poisoned soldiers and common people.Baili Jiuge's heart was clenched tightly, he choked, and said, "I'll go and look through the notes that the senior ghost doctor taught me about medical skills, and see if I can find a way to detoxify."

Mo Li agreed, patted Baili Jiuge's little hand, still smiling gently and encouragingly.But both of them know that the possibility is very slim.

Baili Jiuge immediately pulled out his hands, stepped out firmly, and rushed to the prefect's mansion.

The wind on the street was bitingly cold, mixed with thin flakes of snow, piercing the needle-like cold into Baili Jiuge's body.But she couldn't feel it, an anxious heart was beating wildly.

The river is full of blood.

Who gave this poison?

It seems that it is aimed at Zhou Jun, and most likely it should be Shang Jun, but she believes that her elder brother is not someone who will use such vicious methods.What's more, the common people were also poisoned, it is impossible for the eldest brother to treat the common people of Shaocheng like this.

Could it be that Han Chan and that huge white Gu worm did it?
As soon as this idea came into being, Baili Jiuge felt terrified.She has seen Liao Xiying's dehumanization before, and she doesn't want Han Chan to do the same.

Baili Jiuge shook his head.Things are still a mess, she can't see clearly, the most important thing now is to find a way to detoxify and save lives!
He rushed back to the prefect's mansion, took out his notes, Baili Jiuge quickly read them carefully, and thanked himself and Mo Li for drinking the well water of the prefect's mansion, otherwise if even Mo Li was poisoned...

She turned page after page intently. The ghost doctor did teach her a lot of rare folk remedies, but most of them were for treating difficult and miscellaneous diseases, but there was very little knowledge about detoxification...

Got it!

Turning to a certain page that appeared on a certain page, the four characters "Man Jiang Xuesan" made Baili Jiuge excited.Great, the senior ghost doctor still told her about this poison.

Baili Jiuge quickly moved closer to the scroll, reading it word by word.

However, with careful reading, a look of disappointment gradually appeared in Baili Jiuge's eyes.The senior ghost doctor only briefly described the symptoms of Man Jiangxue's poisoned hair and the herbs that may be needed to detoxify. As for the proportion of herbs and how to suffer, he didn't say anything.

What can she do to detoxify everyone?
