The second day.
Chen Daoyu got up before dawn.
He was worried that something might happen if they stayed in Qinghe for too long, so he wanted to urge the exile team to set off quickly and head to Jeju immediately.
But as soon as my feet touched the ground and I hadn't even put on my clothes, an extreme dizziness suddenly hit my mind and everything went black.
Chen Daoyu retreated quickly and fell on the bed.
There was a throbbing pain in my temple, accompanied by a feeling of dizziness and nausea.
Chen Daoyu shook his head, not believing it, and tried to stand up again, but he fell to the ground after taking only two steps.
A curse word escaped his lips.
Chen Daoyu closed his eyes. "What happened? Poisoned?"
His heart sank, and Chen Daoyu felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave.
Gu Wei wouldn’t really be planning to poison him here!
How dare he?
He yelled, "Someone come!"
Two servants in blue and white double-breasted robes walked in from outside the courtyard, lowering their eyebrows and looking polite, "Master, what can I do for you?"
Chen Daoyu took out a silver ingot from his pocket and said, "You two, one of you will help me find a doctor, and the other will help me check on the condition of my family and companions."
The servant took a step back, did not take the money, and only replied in a gentle voice, "Yes."
Then he turned and left.
Chen Daoyu was lying on the bed, feeling somewhat emotional.
The Pei family’s family tradition is really good, different from any other family in Beijiang.
His Chen family is also considered an old family in Beijiang, but it is far inferior to the Pei family.
Chen Daoyu secretly swore in his heart that when he returned from Lingnan, he would rectify the family tradition.
The servant who went to check on the situation came back soon, his eyes clear, and he said word by word: "Sir, your family and companions are all feeling a little unwell like you, and are all lying in bed. I have already informed the old lady, and the doctor should be here soon."
Chen Daoyu didn't believe it and said coldly, "Help me go and have a look."
The servant helped Chen Daoyu walk to the back yard.
The Chen family, the Wang family, including the soldiers, all felt dizzy like him. They lay on the bed with frowns on their brows, unable to move.
Chen Daoyu went to see the families who were on good terms with the Gu family, and saw the same situation, all lying in bed.
The doctor just came.
The old man, who was over fifty years old and had white hair and beard, frowned deeply. "Is there anyone who can't adapt to the local climate again? Alas, Qinghe County is surrounded by rivers and is too humid, especially in April, which is different from the outside world. Outsiders will definitely not be able to adapt when they come here for the first time. Why are there still people going in even though the county lord has issued a ban?"
He shook his head as he spoke, looking at the child behind him, "Go back and get all the medicine for the discomfort caused by the water and soil."
Chen Daoyu happened to be there and stretched out his hand, "Doctor, I am a patient."
The old doctor walked over, felt the patient's pulse, and raised his beard, "Do the other people have the same symptoms as you?"
Chen Daoyu nodded.
"Then you don't need to see any more. Just take my medicine and it will be fine in ten days or half a month."
Chen Daoyu narrowed his eyes, "Ten days or half a month?"
The doctor snorted, "What else? Every April in Qinghe County, there is a disease called aquatic disease. Even the locals are not well, let alone outsiders."
After saying that, the doctor picked up the medicine box and left.
The doctor is telling the truth.
The climate in Qinghe County has always been different from that in the outside world.
It takes outsiders at least two months to adapt.
Xie Ling accidentally poisoned the patient, and the poison was just the kind that could cause acclimatization, but it was a little more serious than the usual acclimatization.
Chen Daoyu's eyes gradually darkened and he felt dizzy again. He hurriedly asked the servant to help him to the bed.
Close your eyes.
Chen Daoyu was thinking frantically in his mind.
Gu Wei shouldn't be so bold as to kill them in Qinghe County.
Otherwise, the entire Qinghe County would be dragged into the water, which would give Beijiang a reason to attack Qinghe County.
But ten days or half a month is too long...
There is no guarantee that Gu Wei will do something unusual.
What method should be used to suppress Gu Wei?
Just as he was thinking about it, a little red bird flew in from the window and landed steadily in Chen Daoyu's palm.
This bird is shaped like a crane, but has only one leg, red markings on its green feathers, and a white beak, and looks very majestic.
Chen Daoyu narrowed his eyes, "What the hell?"
He looked closely and saw that the bird had an exquisite iron ring on its ankle, with a luxurious dragon pattern on it.
"The prince's symbol?"
Chen Daoyu immediately asked the servant to call Wan Qi.
Wan Qi was carried here, lying on a wooden board. His condition was not good and he was dying.
"Mr. Chen, why did you call me here? I feel so uncomfortable that I am about to die..."
As soon as Wan Qi came in, Chen Daoyu asked the servant to close the door.
Chen Daoyu groped his way to the window, made a small hole, and seeing that there was no one outside, he moved closer to Wan Qi and took out the bird from his arms.
He whispered, "What is this? Why is there the prince's mark on it?"
Wan Qi's tiger eyes lit up, and he struggled to get up. "This is the divine bird Bifang! It was given to the prince as a gift when he traded cities to buy poison. It is said to be a divine bird from the ancient Zhou Dynasty, and it can deliver messages very accurately.
As long as Bifang smells the clothes or objects of the person he wants to find, Bifang will remember the person's scent and can find him no matter how far away he is. It seems that the prince wants to pass on a message to us!"
Wan Qi didn’t tell the whole story.
This Bifang was not a gift, but an advertisement from that mysterious group of people to the prince.
When the prince heard that the bird was actually the sacred bird of the Zhou Dynasty, he made up his mind to exchange it for a city.
After all, when the world had not yet been divided into seven kingdoms, the Zhou Dynasty was the only ruler. Who wouldn't want to be the orthodox Zhou Dynasty?
However, the prince did not dare to let Chen Daoyu know that he had spent an entire city for this bird, for fear of being scolded by Chen Daoyu.
