Chapter 355 Luo Yunzhen wakes up
Yun Zhi walked in slowly without closing the door. Within the sight of the two soldiers, she walked straight to Luo Yunzhen's bed.
She first carefully observed his complexion and then took his pulse.
After a while, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, as if she was still confused about the pulse.
She leaned down and moved closer to Luo Yunzhen. She gently opened his eyelids with one hand, as if to check his pupils.
And at the moment when she leaned over to check, the wide sleeve of her right hand fell down very naturally, just covering the earlobe of Luo Yunzhen.
An extremely faint and strange smell, a mixture of sweet and fishy smells and the bitter smell of plants, instantly overflowed from the lining of her cuffs.
There, the mouth of a black ceramic bottle only the size of a thumb was opened.
A strange, hair-thin, almost transparent worm, as if receiving some silent command, emerged like lightning and silently sank deep into Luo Yunzhen's ear canal.
When the worm disappeared, the strange smell also disappeared instantly, as if it had never appeared.
Yun Zhi's fingertips left Luo Yunzhen's eyelids, and a faint smile flashed across her usually cold face.
She looked at Luo Yunzhen's tightly closed eyes and said in a whisper that only the two of them could hear, "The time has come, General Luo, you should wake up."
The next moment, Luo Yunzhen on the bed suddenly opened his eyes.
But his eyes were empty, staring straight at the curtains above the bed, without any focus, like a puppet that was suddenly awakened.
Yun Zhi whispered again, "Wake up, General Luo."
Luo Yunzhen's eyes moved extremely slowly, and then he blinked. The confusion and emptiness in his eyes slowly receded like the tide.
He turned his head with difficulty and somewhat stiffly, looking at the woman who was looking down at him by the bed.
His cracked lips moved, and a hoarse, dry voice uttered, "Who... are you?"
Yun Zhi smiled at him and said, "General Luo, you were poisoned by the miasma of Nanzhao, and I saved you."
Luo Yunzhen struggled to prop up his upper body and sat up straight.
He shook his head, his face still blank as if he had just woken up.
After thinking for a while, he remembered that he led his troops into the poisonous forest to pursue Nong Zhigao.
Nong Zhigao was knocked to the ground by him, and he stepped forward to capture him alive.
Because all their attention was focused on Nong Zhigao, they were worried that he would suddenly use some vicious trick.
But he didn't prepare for a sneak attack from someone hiding in the dark of the woods.
When countless poisonous needles attacked from behind, he flew to dodge, but he was still a step too late, and a poisonous needle pierced his arm.
Before he could catch the attacker, his body fell to the ground as if weighing a thousand pounds and he lost consciousness.
When he woke up, he felt excruciating pain all over his body.
It was as if something was gnawing at his flesh and tearing his bones apart inch by inch.
The blood in his body was sometimes as cold as ice, making people tremble all over, and sometimes as hot as boiling water, making people's skin and flesh rot.
He was in so much pain that he wished he could die immediately.
Then, his consciousness became blurred and his awake time became less and less.
He just thought he was going to die.
He is not afraid of death, but he feels a little guilty.
He has not yet killed Nong Zhigao, nor has he saved the people of Zhennan Pass from the dire straits. He feels guilty about not fulfilling the emperor's trust.
Even in a daze, he seemed to hear that Su Muyang went alone to chase Nong Zhigao in order to find an antidote for him.
Luo Yunzhen was startled and turned around to look for Su Muyang in the room.
"Where are the others? Where is Su Muyang?"
He asked anxiously.
Yun Zhi was lost in thought. Just as she was about to ask him who Su Muyang was, she was interrupted by the surprised voice of the soldier at the door:
"General Luo! You're awake!" one of the soldiers shouted excitedly.
"Great! God has mercy on you, you've finally woken up! I'll go report this to Princess Fu'an right away!"
After the other soldier finished speaking, he ran out.
Not long after, Nangong Ziyun hurried back with an unconcealable joy on her face.
Seeing Luo Yunzhen sitting up, she quickly stepped forward.
"General Luo! That's great! God bless you, you finally woke up!" She habitually reached out to take his pulse.
Luo Yunzhen, however, didn't care about his own physical condition and asked anxiously, "Princess Fu'an! Where's Mu Yang?"
Nangong Ziyun looked at the concern and anxiety in Luo Yunzhen's eyes and understood.
She showed a soothing smile on her face, glanced at Yun Zhi who was standing quietly with her hands hanging down beside her, and her thoughts raced.
The plan of the Emperor and my brother is top secret. Although Miss Yun saved General Luo, her identity is still unknown and nothing can be revealed at this moment.
"Don't worry, General Luo." Nangong Ziyun slowed down his tone and smiled gently.
"Brother is fine. He's doing just fine. The Emperor is leading the army in person, so he... naturally serves by his side. You should just rest and recover. Once the fighting on the front lines settles down, they will surely return victorious."
When Luo Yunzhen heard the words "the emperor personally led the army" and "by the emperor's side", his eyes first showed great astonishment, and then he suddenly realized.
Finally, the tense nerves slowly relaxed, but a trace of lingering worry still remained deep in his eyes.
He believed that Princess Fu'an would not lie to him about Su Muyang's safety, but the statement of "serving the emperor" was too general. Combined with the fragments he heard before he fell into a coma, he always felt that things were not that simple.
Nangong Ziyun keenly caught the doubt in his eyes and sighed inwardly.
She turned to Yun Zhi and gave her an apologetic smile: "Miss Yun, General Luo just woke up and is not in good spirits. Could you allow me to speak to him alone for a few words?"
Yun Zhihe immediately understood and bowed slightly:
"Your Highness, you are too kind. Now that General Luo has regained consciousness and his pulse is stable, I am relieved."
After saying that, she took her leave and left the barracks.
Nangong Ziyun winked at the servants in the room and the soldiers at the door. Everyone understood, quickly dismissed the other people in the barracks, and gently closed the door.
When there were only two of them left in the barracks, Nangong Ziyun told him concisely but clearly about the earth-shaking changes that had taken place in the past few months since Luo Yunzhen fell into a coma.
When the emperor learned that he was poisoned and unconscious, and that Zhennan Pass was in danger, he resolutely led the army in person;
Master Xuwu of Huguo Temple gave him medicine that extended his life for three months;
The emperor led his army into the poisonous miasma forest and severely injured Nong Zhigao, cutting off one of his arms, but he still escaped;
Nong Zhigao sneaked into the Nanzhao Palace and attempted to assassinate the Imperial Concubine and the princes and princesses, but was discovered and captured by the deputy commander Zuo Qing and taken to Zhennan Pass.
In order to seek revenge, Nong Zhigao took poison before entering Zhennan Pass, resulting in a lack of antidote.
In the end, it was Miss Yunzhi, a master of medicine, who used the secret technique of golden needles and risked her life to forcibly draw out the poisonous blood for him, and finally brought him back from the brink of death...
Luo Yunzhen's heart was filled with emotions as he listened, as if he were in another world.
When he heard that Yun Zhi used acupuncture to save him, the cold and beautiful face just now appeared involuntarily in his mind, but an inexplicable strange feeling arose in his heart.
It seemed like gratitude, but also like confusion, and he himself couldn't explain it clearly.
Just thinking about how I had been asleep for several months and missed so many changes, a huge feeling of guilt came over me again.
He opened his mouth, wanting to ask something else, such as whether the emperor was safe, what exactly Su Muyang was doing, and what was the current situation on the front line?
But a strong dizziness and overwhelming fatigue suddenly hit him, making his vision black and making him almost unable to sit still.
Nangong Ziyun immediately supported him and advised, "You are too weak and your vitality is greatly damaged. You are lucky to wake up. What you need most right now is rest. Lie down and rest first. I will call you when the medicine is ready."
Luo Yunzhen knew that he really couldn't hold on at the moment, so he hummed softly and lay down obediently.
Almost the moment he touched the pillow, his heavy eyelids closed, his breathing became long and steady, and he fell into sleep again.
Nangong Ziyun carefully took his pulse again and confirmed that there was nothing abnormal except extreme weakness before she was completely relieved.
She gently tucked the quilt for him, turned around and walked away quickly, heading straight for the pharmacy.
The antidote formula for the Thousand Insect Plague must be found out as soon as possible.
The lights in the pharmacy were brightly on. Nangong Ziyun carefully poured out a little of the antidote for the "Thousand Insect Plague" that Zhou Chong had someone send over and placed it on a jade dish.
She first used a silver needle to detect the poison, then observed its color and smelled its flavor, and finally picked up a little and put it in her mouth to savor it carefully.
She didn't sleep the whole night, and only when the daylight was just breaking did she finally decide on the final prescription.
She immediately copied more than twenty copies, stamped them with her own seal, and called in several soldiers whom her husband said were absolutely trustworthy.
"Quickly arrange for a fast horse to rush eight hundred miles to deliver this prescription to the attending physicians in each epidemic area.
"yes."

(My dears, today is a little sad... I had already written three chapters at 12 o'clock in the morning. When I was about to post, the Internet was disconnected and the article did not save automatically.
After reconnecting to the internet, I searched for a long time, but couldn't find a single word. I felt like the sky was falling...
In the end, I had to stay up all night to rewrite the plot... I cried so hard...)
