Chapter 52： Chilling Poison

"Old General!"

As soon as Ge Shuhan fell, Fuzhong suddenly shouted for the earth, and his wife and maid all gathered around. Instead, Li Jinglong and Hong Jun were squeezed out of the crowd. Seeing the chaos at the scene, Hong Jun's brows were deeply locked, and he was still looking around.

"Hurry up, doctor—"

"Oops! Come on! Madam is not good!"

Li Jinglong: "Go and show the old lady."

In his sixties, Ge Shuhan didn't listen to anyone's words. He only listened to his wife. The couple was deeply affectionate. Right now there is a large army besieging the city, and Ge Shuhan suddenly becomes ill, which is really an internal and external concern.

"Block the news." Li Jinglong ordered the commander of the busy guard, "You can't leak it, just say that the old general is meeting to discuss countermeasures, go!"

The maid helped Mrs. Shuhan Han into the room. Hongjun went to the clinic and said, "If the condition is not serious, it is terrified. Just stay calm and drink it."

The people in the house were relieved, and the old lady said, "Is there an enemy outside? What about the general? Are you going to take a look?"

Hong Jun replied: "The old general is not a hindrance. It should have been coming and going in the wind and snow yesterday. After suffering the wind chill and worrying too much, he fainted for a moment. Please rest assured."

The old lady calmed down, grabbed Hongjun's hand, and said, "You are all good boys, I heard the old man say."

Hongjun grabbed her hand and listened to her whispering a lot of words. Anyway, Li Jinglong didn't rush, so she chatted with her for a while. After listening to it, it turned out that the wife of Ge Shuhan used to be the eldest lady of Jinyiyushi. When she was 14 years old, she saw Ge Shuhan's heroic appearance in armor, and she fell in love and followed him until now. During the battle, the march was accompanied, and there was no half complaint.

During this period, Brother Shuhan went up and down, and his wife always followed him. He fought outside, and she stayed in the city. He returned. As a Turk, Ge Shuhan was very difficult to promote all the way, but she never complained. . More than twenty years ago, Fengxian Daying could not wait for the military pay and was almost in a mutiny. She still sold her jewelry dowry and went to Chang'an to clear it.

She and her brother Shu Han had two sons and one daughter. The eldest son went to Luoyang. The younger son sent a garrison to the south. Her daughter married Jizhou. Ge Shuhan had never married a concubine in his life, and his wife was always the first in the family. Even if there was a big fire, as long as the wife came forward to persuade, she would immediately converge.

"This time it's no match for the old man to break the Turkic." The old lady said, "Since the city was in March, even the city ate nothing. The old man also saved military food for me to eat, but he didn't have enough food. What about you?

Hongjun held her hand and replied: "This time there will be nothing wrong, you can rest assured."

The old lady "huh," she didn't know what demons and ghosts were outside the city at the moment, and how many injuries did he have, and how many **** battles did he have.

Hong Jun was really annoying Ge Shuhan. After all, he was too angry with Li Jinglong, but after being said so, he couldn't help but respect him. What is more respectful is the love of their husband and wife for more than 40 years.

"How many years have you been together?" Hong Jun asked.

The old lady thought for a while, and the mood was getting better, she smiled and said, "Forty-two years."

He married him at the age of fourteen. Brother Shuhan was in his twenties, and now the old lady is fifty-six. Hongjun couldn't help but say that for more than 40 years, this is almost a lifetime. I just don't know if I will have such a life. There is someone who can rely on and accompany each other until I am old.

"Do you love him?" Hong Jun asked again.

"I saw him when I was very young." The old lady laughed, and Zhao Hongjun said, "That year I also forgot how old I was, he was as old as you. I also called his brother ... … I learned later that he was a Turkic man with the surname Geshu. "

Hong Jun also laughed, somehow, he wanted to hear the story of the old lady saying they were in love, it sounded so beautiful, when can I have it?

The old lady murmured for a while, and fell asleep. Hong Jun gently pulled out her hand, instructing the maid not to wake her up, and walked out of the room slowly. Li Jinglong was waiting in the hallway. Hong Jun was startled. The two looked at each other. Li Jinglong seemed a little confused. Obviously he heard what the old lady said outside.

"It's not easy." Li Jinglong said looking at the snow in the courtyard.

"Well." Hong Jun said, "That's great."

Hong Jun was very longing for that feeling. After listening to it, Li Jinglong laughed, looked at him, and then sighed again, saying, "Let me look back slowly, the situation is a bit wrong, you look first. Look."

Hong Jun was very surprised and followed Li Jinglong quickly through the corridor and into the door of Mo Rigen.

Lu Xu was lying in front of Mo Rigen's couch, holding his little finger, and Hong Jun murmured when he saw Mo Rigen's complexion. It wasn't as serious yesterday. What's wrong?

Lu Xu sees that Hongjun is here, and quickly gives way, pointing to Mo Rigen, obviously worried for a long time, but can't find anyone.

Hong Jun tried Mo Rigen's forehead and said, "Mo Rigen?"

"Cold ..." Mo Zhigen replied.

Mo Zhigen only used some rice soup last night. Today's meals were put on the table and moved only a little. Looking at that look, most of them were Lu Xu.

He was still naked, covered with a quilt, exposing his arms and shoulders, and his trauma was all healed.

"Give him another medicine?" Li Jinglong asked.

"Take two." Hong Jun replied, "I can't eat any more, I'm afraid my body will burn if I eat too much."

Mo Rigen was half asleep and awake, and had been afraid of the cold. Li Jinglong said: "It's not like the wind and the cold, it's like being bitten by a snake. I don't know if it was contaminated by the dead corpse after being killed by the war dead."

"The wound is not ulcerated." Hong Jun frowned. "No, you ..." He suddenly remembered that more than one person was injured yesterday, and said instantly: "Long history, how about you? How is the injury?"

Li Jinglong took off his clothes, turned his back to Hongjun, and opened his robe to show him his wounds. There were several obvious stab wounds on the back muscles, and there was an arrow wound in the arm, which had all healed.

Li Jinglong also said: "There is one more thing, you take a look."

Hong Jun put on a shirt for Mo Rigen first, and Lu Xu looked at Hong Jun worriedly, and Hong Jun was so distracted that he said, "I'll go get him medicine."

Lu Xu stubbornly followed, and Li Jinglong left the house, let Hong Jun lead Lu Xu, and rode to Liangzhou Chengzheng Street. The corpse legion outside the city did not launch a siege, but the rumours of the people of Liangzhou have been spread all over the sky. The city is shrouded in a strange atmosphere of terror.

Hong Jun wanted to go to the pharmacy, but Li Jinglong led them into an alley, and went into a family, it was the Qin House. Qin Liang lay on the couch, her daughter Qin Xuan and his wife were on the sidelines.

Hong Jun: "!!!"

"Come and see." Qin Xuan anxiously said that before she sent a letter to the General's Mansion, Li Jinglong finally arrived.

"Exactly." Hong Jun murmured.

"What's the same?" Qin Xuan asked.

Hong Jun looked at the wound left by Qin Liang yesterday, and he used Jinchuang medicine for his trauma, which was basically harmless, but his face was disappointed, exactly the same as Mo Zhigen's situation.

Qin Xuan and Mrs. Qin asked long and short, Hong Jun was worried, and only a few words of comfort, he said to grab the medicine, left Qin House, and went to Decheng Chinese Medicine Hall. Liangzhou City is a necessary place for the Silk Road. The medicinal materials are abundant, and there are even the Lishen Flower Seeds produced in the Western Regions, and expensive drugs such as Xuelian. However, Hong Jun is facing the medicine drawer, but he does not know what medicine to prepare.

At this time, he only hated that he had learned too little in the past, so why not study medical science with Zhongming? In case Mo Rigen had something three long and two short ... Hong Jun's face was blank, and he had thought of how to go to Shiwei to notify Mo Rigen's family and let them come over to see him, but Li Jinglong patted Hong Jun's back. , Say: "Don't be afraid, try your best, I have everything in everything."

Hong Jun nodded, grabbed the medicine for protecting the cold and promoting blood flow, and came out of the medicine hall, but Li Jinglong signaled that he would sit down in the restaurant outside the lane and nod.

Known as "fish and sheep drink", this restaurant is famous for mutton dumplings. In the cold, the store scoops a spoonful of medicinal soup stewed with cold herbs and fish bones. The dumplings are wrapped in lamb and red and white radish filaments and noodles. The gluten, the filling juice is sweet, the lamb is tender and fragrant, and the medicinal soup is more cold-proof. It is simply delicious on earth.

However, Hong Jun couldn't eat enough, and was very worried. Lu Xu took two bites, and suddenly burst into tears, unable to wipe his tears.

As soon as Lu Xu cried, he recruited Hong Jun. When Hong Jun was a child, he would suffer heavy anger. When he cried, he would be beaten, and he would endure. When Mo Zhigen asked, he did not know where to go for help. Confused, he reached out to comfort Lu Xu, and he could not help crying.

Li Jinglong: "..."

"I said, Mo Rigen will be fine." Li Jinglong said, "Do you believe me? Hong Jun, I promised you something, which one hasn't been done?"

Hong Jun was said in this way, and his confidence was restored in an instant. It seemed that this was indeed the case. Li Jinglong had promised how many things he had done, and he had never lost his faith.

"I believe." Hong Jun said, "but he doesn't believe it."

Li Jinglong and Hongjun touched Lu Xu's head, let him eat it, Lu Xu calmed down for a while.

"Delicious?" Li Jinglong said.

Hongjun had a delicious meal, but his mood was slightly better. Now he was even more entangled. He was worried about Mo Rigen, but he did not dare to express his worry, lest Li Jinglong feel angry because he did not believe him.

"You act as if we were investigating the case before." Li Jinglong used to have lunch and leaned on the second floor of the restaurant to look out at the streets where people were coming and going. Turnaround. "

Hong Jun seemed to understand, Li Jinglong said again: "Hurry up and eat, how can you investigate the case forcefully?"

Lu Xu also understood, and he and Hongjun finished the dumplings in the bowl. Out of the street, Li Jinglong said: "If you are not busy going back to dispensing, go to the market first."

Hong Jun followed Li Jinglong and saw that at the fair, Li Jinglong bought a pair of sheepskin-lined snow boots worn by children.

Hong Jun asked: "What are we going to do?"

Li Jinglong replied: "You will know it later."

Then Li Jinglong bought a thick padded sheepskin bag, borrowed scissors, cut a few holes in the sheepskin bag, tied the bag with a rope, and tied it up, frowning: "You can't help your feet. You Get me two small sleeves. "

Hong Jun: "..."

"Buy a few more thick ropes." Li Jinglong ordered, "Buy a little stronger."

After buying everything, the three went to the garrison in the city. There were more fallen soldiers here, and there were no fewer than forty barracks. All were the same as Mo Rigen and Qin Liang.

Hong Jun was shocked. When he looked at Li Jinglong again, Li Jinglong was not surprised, and it seemed that he had expected this to happen.

After seeing it for a long time, the military doctor said that he was injured and feverish, and he couldn't explain why. The soldiers were shaking with cold and cold.

"Let them take this medicine." Hong Jun handed the prescription to the military doctor. The military doctor prescribed it similarly to Hong Jun, so he adjusted a few drugs and asked someone to grab the medicine and decoction.

"How many people are sick?" Li Jinglong said.

A lieutenant general did not want to answer. Obviously, he was afraid to affect the morale of the army, but Li Jinglong spread his hands. Inside was a wooden sign in the general's mansion.

"Thirteen thousand three hundred and seventy-five people." The lieutenant said, "Some people are falling ill one after another."

Li Jinglong: "..."

Yesterday Ge Shuhan took 20,000 cavalry out of the city, that is to say, all the wounded soldiers fell ill yesterday. Liangzhou claims to have 50,000 Tieqi and 30,000 infantry, 80,000 troops are recruited throughout the city, and it has the power of World War I.

Li Jinglong mounted again, this time Hong Jun stopped asking and followed the tower.

The cold wind and cold, a siege of 100,000 dead corpses, is like a sculpture in this icy snow, and the body is covered with snow, and it is one with the snow.

"What do you think they are doing?" Li Jinglong said.

"Like waiting." Hong Jun replied frowning.

"What are you waiting for?" Li Jinglong turned his head, staring at Hongjun.

Hong Jun: "..."

Hong Jun suddenly understood Li Jinglong's thoughts. Why did he not attack the city for a day and a night when one hundred thousand dead ghouls were besieged? Waiting for reinforcements? Not necessarily, what are they waiting for? Will the soldiers in the city die of themselves?

"Do you think that Mo Rigen, Qin Liang, and more than 10,000 soldiers were poisoned or a disease spread by dead corpses?" Li Jinglong asked Hongjun, "This is very important, Hongjun."

Hong Jun suddenly fell into hesitation, frowning and thinking for a long time, Li Jinglong replied: "Intuition."

"Poison." Since he had said so, Hong Jun didn't want to answer.

Li Jinglong said: "I also think it is poison, a poison that can turn a living person into a dead person, and then turn into a dead corpse. You are waiting here. I will go grab a few and try."

"No no no." Hong Jun said, "Don't go!"

Li Jinglong said: "I am not affected by this disease."

"But you will be trampled to death!" Hong Jun said, "the army of 100,000!"

Li Jinglong said: "You are responsible for answering me."

"No!" Hong Jun said, "I will go with you."

Li Jinglong grabbed Hongjun's collar and said, "You must not have an accident!"

Hong Jun opened the sleeves and let him look at the back of his hand. Li Jinglong suddenly froze.

There was a wound left on the back of the hand that healed yesterday.

Li Jinglong frowned: "Maybe it is because there are not many scars."

Hong Jun glanced at Lu Xu and whispered, "This epidemic is only effective for people. I am a demon, so it is different."

"Mo Rigen ..." Li Jinglong realized Lu Xu was next to him, and then signaled with his eyes, Hong Jun replied: "He is not, he is a mortal body after all."

Li Jinglong finally had to give in and said, "Then you must never ..."

Hong Jun looked at Li Jinglong with a smile in his eyes, and Li Jinglong was no longer his mother-in-law and said, "Go."

Li Jinglong and Hong Jun immediately put on their saddles and turned their horses, but Lu Xu chased them out and shouted, "I! I!"

"Hurry back!" Said Hong Jun towards Lu Xu.

Lu Xu hurriedly pulled down his shirt to show Hong Jun. Hong Jun and Li Jinglong suddenly stunned. Lu Xu also had a scar on his collarbone, obviously healed for a long time.

"Are you okay?" Hong Jun looked at Lu Xu in surprise.

Lu Xu took a shovel by the city gate and carried it behind his back. Li Jinglong couldn't explain it for a while and shouted, "Come on, hold him!"

The soldiers swarmed up, but Lu Xu was angry. "Boo" burst out through the gap between the soldiers' body. Hong Jun only felt a flower in front of him, and Lu Xu was gone.

"How can it be so fast?" Hong Jun noticed Lu Xu for the first time.

Immediately after landing, Xu stopped in front of the two men and shouted, "I!"

Li Jinglong said angrily: "No!"

"I protect him." Hong Jun said to Li Jinglong, how much he could understand that Lu Xu wanted to save Mo Rigen, Li Jinglong's eyebrows were deeply locked, Hong Jun said: "If you are sick, I will be equally worried."

When Li Jinglong heard this, he said helplessly: "You are my boss, let's go!"

So Hong Jun carried the prepared rough rope, and the three of them galloped on their horses, approaching the phalanx of dead corpses, and the plain outside the city was silent.

Li Jinglong whispered: "I'm going to lead one, you look at the opportunity and trap it with the five-color divine light."

Hong Jun said: "Long history, do you think ... Are you sure you can lead to one?"

The three stood on horses and looked at the unmoved phalanx nearly ten feet away. Li Jinglong said: "Should I try to shoot an arrow first?"

Li Jinglong aimed at one of them, Hong Jun had never practiced horseback fighting, and only felt comfortable fighting in the ground.

Li Jinglong aimed and lowered with a bow and arrow, aiming and lowering again, several times in a row, and finally made up his mind and shot with one arrow.

At that moment, Hong Jun mentioned his throat in one heart.

With the sound of "Dang" in the distance, the first corpse soldier in the Phalanx was shot down with a helmet on his head.

However, the army was unmoved.

Hong Jun: "..."

"Let's do it again." Li Jinglong shot another arrow, and then shot the next head, still not moving.

Hong Jun: "???

Hong Jun suddenly remembered that a whole row was neat and neat, and he cut it horizontally with his own flying knife ... A knife seemed to be very useful? !

Li Jinglong saw the sword appearing in Hongjun's hands and said, "Not good."

Hong Jun said: "In case they didn't get the order, they were all waiting in line, cut a few more times, or they would all be finished? The military order was like a mountain, right?"

Li Jinglong hesitated for a moment, but did not stop Hong Jun, saying, "You cut a knife."

The atmosphere is really weird. Hongjun gathers his hands on the wrist, and Mo Dao, after cutting the Xian Fei Dao into one, suddenly turns around and becomes almost transparent.

Li Jinglong: "How many swords can you make?"

"Up to four knives." The magic weapon is no problem, but Hongjun's mana and cultivation ability can't keep up. This knife is very powerful, and it can be cut off even the mountains.

"Every knife in the southeast and northwest." Li Jinglong had changed his mind and said, "Shoot!"

Hongjun shouted loudly, his wrist deflected, the tip of the knife swept an arc, his hands were divided, and he slashed in front of him.

Suddenly, the sword gas suddenly broke out. For the first time, Li Jinglong still saw Hongjun coming out of the sword. He saw that the sword gas rolled up thousands of snow, and he roared toward the battle dead corpse. The platoon of soldiers, followed by the collapse of the entire phalanx of nearly two thousand people.

But the next moment, all the dead corpses outside the city moved!

Hundreds of thousands of dead corpses launched a charge towards the center!

Li Jinglong shouted: "Quick withdrawal!"

Hong Jun said: "I will make up ..."

"Don't make it up!" Li Jinglong shouted, "Go away! Protect Lu Xu!"

In an instant, the army came out like a tide, and Hong Jun realized that he was also bringing a landing, and immediately turned around and ran. The phalanx quickly gathered together. Li Jinglong held the wisdom sword and swept left and right. The light of the heart lamp was stronger than the slashing flying sword.

Lu Xu shouted: "Grab! Grab!"

Lu Xu picked Hongjun on his back and jumped off the horse. Hongjun was so scared that he shouted, "Lu Xu! Don't run around!"

At that time, I saw Lu Xu holding the rope on the left and the shovel on the right, spreading his arms, and ran on the snow. The speed was like a falcon in the snow, so fast that he was as fast as a galloping horse. Think about it and shout: "Set one!"

"Live!" Lu Xu shouted, "Half!"

Hong Jun: "???

"Not half!" Li Jinglong didn't expect Lu Xu to listen to his conversation with Mo Rigen that day, and shouted, "One! One!"

So Lu Xu ran on the ground, Li Jinglong and Hong Jun ran on horseback, followed by an army of dead corpses of nearly ten thousand wars, and launched an earth-shattering chase outside the city. There was a lot of noise on the city gate. Cheer for three people.

"Hong Jun, the five-colored divine light!" Li Jinglong turned back and screamed. Hong Jun was on the side, releasing a five-colored divine light on one side, making a loud noise and blasting the team in front of the chaser into the sky.

"Set!" Li Jinglong shouted.

Lu Xu turned around and ran the noose towards the chasing soldiers, dragged one down, and the dead corpse waved with his hands and feet, dragged and bumped in the snow.

"Another one!" Hong Jun said.

Li Jinglong quickly shouted: "No need, no need!"

Hong Jun was another trick, Lu Xu put another one down, then the three men turned over the mound and grabbed the third one. Hongjun dragged three thick ropes with three war dead corpses on the ropes, dragging in the snow.

"You guys are addicted!" Li Jinglong shouted, "Enough! Let's go!"

Hong Jun shouted: "Lu Xu quickly come up!"

Lu Xu jumped a few steps, stepped along the rope, and flew back to Hongjun, sitting securely, the three people dragging as far as a sleigh, Li Jinglong couldn't keep turning his head, and passed an ice river, only to see that tens of thousands Tieqi is chasing after.

"It's bad." Hongjun's three dragees immediately dragged down, and the speed has gradually slowed down. "It won't keep chasing like this forever!"

Li Jinglong shouted: "Turn back and shoot towards the ice river!"

Hong Jun turned sideways subconsciously and swung away with a knife. The knife gas submerged into the ice river. The ice surface was suddenly broken. The chasing soldiers plunged into the river, fell to the bottom of the river, and struggled. They were taken downstream by the river.

The two stood on the horse and observed that tens of thousands of cavalry rushed into the river endlessly. It seemed that they did not have the slightest resolution, so they filled the ice river and did not know the detour.

Li Jinglong's mouth twitched, looking at the scene in front of him, but there was a low growl in the distance.

"It's that voice again."

The dead corpses stopped suddenly and trained, and retreated one after another, leaving the river, and the three caught were also swaying, dragging the rope and walking in the direction of the sound. Hong Jun dragged the captive, dragged the captive, and went around with Li Jinglong outside the West Gate to Liangzhou City.
