Chapter 187: Strange Poison Difficult to Treat
Wen Chengyun cut open the wolf king's skin along the suture line, and an arrow was ejected as the resistance of the suture line disappeared.
His pupils shrank slightly, and he leaned sideways to avoid the murderous arrow that was aimed at his throat, as if he was about to roar!
Although he dodged it, his neck was still scratched, leaving a thin line of blood.
"What's that noise? Go in and take a look!"
The sound of the arrows alerted the patrolling guards outside. They hurriedly opened Lieutenant General Li's tent, but found it empty.
Wen Chengyun had decisively given up exploring at this time. The cold arrow meant that Lieutenant General Li had guessed that someone would touch the wolf king's skin, and this was a bait.
My cleverness backfired...
While the defenders' attention was drawn to Lieutenant General Li's tent, he took a deep breath and quickly left the barracks. Before he reached the courtyard, a feeling of dizziness invaded his limbs.
Cheng Weiyao was awakened by the noise in the yard. She had just finished harvesting a wave of crops in QQ Farm and added food to the animals before leaving the farm.
When she heard the sound of something falling in the yard, her first reaction was that there was a thief in the house. When she got up quietly and opened the door, she saw Wen Chengyun lying on the ground through the crack.
"Husband!"
Cheng Weiyao's eyes suddenly widened, and just as she was about to breathe out, she covered her mouth tightly.
At this time, whether it wakes up Wen Chengming or the women in the room, it will cause trouble for Wen Chengyun.
She closed the door carefully and quickly walked forward to check on Wen Chengyun. His lips were purple and there were bloodstains on his neck, probably where the poison had entered.
She lowered her head slightly and subconsciously wanted to help suck out the poisonous blood, but Wen Chengyun's confused mind was full of resistance.
"Shuntian Restaurant's back alley, Wu Qi..."
Wen Chengyun knew too well how powerful this poison was. Just a small scratch made him feel as if his internal organs were being burned by fire.
If Cheng Weiyao really helped him suck out the poisonous blood, it would just be another innocent person suffering.
It's understandable that he didn't return home for one or two days, but if Cheng Weiyao also fell ill, the Prince Qingping's Mansion would be in real chaos.
Cheng Weiyao didn't expect to get the name of the informant from Wen Chengyun, and it was an acquaintance.
When she helped Wen Chengyun up with some difficulty, he had already fallen into a coma and was breathing weakly.
Wu Qi had been keeping an eye on the alley from his room at Shuntian Restaurant. To facilitate the connection, he had specially modified the structure of Shuntian Restaurant so that no one except his own room could see the alley from this direction.
Therefore, the moment Cheng Wei Yao appeared, he jumped directly from the windowsill, flew along the eaves and landed next to Cheng Wei Yao.
"Lord!"
"Poisoned. The source of the poison is unknown at the moment. Before my husband passed out, I came to look for you."
Cheng Weiyao gave all the information she knew in a concise and clear manner, but she was deeply worried.
"Princess, take this token and go to the last house on West Street to find Doctor Huo. I will first help settle the master..."
Wu Qiyi took Wen Chengyun's pulse. Although he was not proficient in medicine, he could still tell whether the patient was good or bad.
The situation was urgent, and he had no time to look for anyone else. He believed that Cheng Weiyao, as the princess, would naturally share the same aspirations as the master.
"good."
After receiving the order, Cheng Weiyao rushed to West Street. The door of the last house looked dilapidated. The old man who opened the door reeked of alcohol and his face was red.
"Who is it, disturbing my sweet dreams in the middle of the night? I tell you, you'd better be busy, otherwise..."
Before Huo Yuanfeng could finish his words, he saw the token in Cheng Weiyao's hand, and his eyes instantly became clearer than ever.
Cheng Weiyao was also slightly stunned. Wasn't this old man the barefoot doctor who treated Wen Liyu's foot injury and detoxified Wen Chengming? He was the imperial physician, so Wen Chengyun's injury could be cured.
"Follow me and save a life!"
Seeing Cheng Weiyao pulling him away without a word, Huo Yuanfeng quickly brushed her hand away and went back to the house to pick up his medicine box. He was indeed an imperial physician, and when he was in the capital, he even held the position of Director of the Imperial Hospital.
But that was who knows how many years ago. He was old, and he missed his hometown. The court was reluctant to let him resign, and tried to persuade him to stay several times. It was hard to refuse his kindness, so he resigned and returned home, but he still promised.
With the royal token as a signal, we will definitely provide assistance when needed.
The two of them hurried towards Shuntian Restaurant, while Wu Qi had already transferred Wen Chengyun to the darkroom of the manager's office.
Inside the darkroom, one wall was filled with swords, guns, and armor, and another wall was filled with rare herbs. Huo Yuanfeng felt somewhat confident when he first entered, but when he glanced at Wen Chengyun's face, his eyes twitched slightly.
"Quick, lay him down! This is a sign of a poison attacking his heart!"
As black blood began to flow out from the end of the silver needle, Cheng Weiyao's heart gradually calmed down.
"Princess, can you please excuse me?"
Wu Qi looked at Cheng Wei Yao who was staring at him and began to clean up the mess. Although the master was accidentally injured, the grand plan of the capital could not be exposed.
Cheng Weiyao silently followed Wu Qi out of the darkroom. From Huo Yuanfeng's furrowed brow, it could be seen that the poison was very tricky, and a quiet rescue environment was also very important.
"What kind of scheme are you setting that requires lives to be sacrificed..."
Cheng Weiyao rubbed her solar plexus. The enemy must not be underestimated. Even Wen Chengyun, who was so cautious, would fall into their trap.
Wu Qi didn't hide it. Since the Lord was able to reveal his existence to the Princess, it can be inferred that the Princess must be trustworthy.
The most important thing is that the Qingping Palace still needs Cheng Weiyao to cover for it. If necessary, he can also disguise himself as a prince and appear in front of everyone to dispel their doubts.
After listening to the overall situation of the Emperor's Group, Cheng Weiyao fell silent. Anti-corruption and anti-pollution are almost the focus of every dynasty. Even in modern times, there are still undercurrents of anti-gang operations.
She had some understanding of Wen Chengyun's behavior, but from a family's perspective, it was difficult to accept such an aggressive approach.
"I will do my best to ensure that no one outside notices anything unusual. My husband always leaves home early and comes back late, so he doesn't spend much time at home. Don't have too much contact with your family, and you shouldn't be exposed.
”
As soon as Cheng Weiyao finished speaking, the sound of rummaging through drawers and cabinets could be heard in the darkroom.
Huo Yuanfeng believed that he had been practicing medicine for half his life and could easily treat difficult and complicated diseases and strange poisons, but there were times when he was powerless.
"It can't be replaced, and this medicine isn't right..."
Cheng Weiyao's heart was in her throat again. Even Huo Yuanfeng couldn't cure this poison?
"Doctor Huo, what herbs are you missing? I'll go find them!"
Wu Qi's face was equally grim. He had already collected a lot of precious medicinal herbs in his darkroom. If he couldn't find any, he would have to ask for help from the capital.
"Look, where are you going to find it for me? The Seven Star Flower has been extinct for years. Even in the capital, you can't find a single petal!"
