The scene of thousands of people cheering with their arms raised was still very touching. Chu Yu felt the blood surging in his chest as he watched.
Reason and emotions were fighting, and for a moment he didn't know what to say or do.
Suddenly, the excitement was interrupted by the sound of horse hooves and neighing, and someone on horseback rushed straight into the crowd.
Chu Yu saw the person on the horse from afar, his eyes filled with shock.
"Little bell? How is this possible?"
He had clearly received the letter before, and she and Doctor Jiang should have just left two days ago. How could they arrive so soon?
He was so excited that he even forgot to go forward to greet them. Xiao Lingling and Jiang Xinian quickly jumped off their horses and came to him.
"Stinky boy, we're here to help. There are some people behind us, but they should be late. First, give us a tent specifically for research, and then arrange for someone to take us to see the patient."
Jiang Xinian came up and started making some arrangements, and Chu Yu finally came back to his senses.
"Oh, oh, okay, Senior Sister, please make arrangements for Divine Doctor Jiang and Little Bell. I'll take the others to fight first!"
Xue Zhining nodded and was about to take the master and disciple to see the patient.
Little Bell heard something and immediately grabbed his hand. "What did you say? Fight? They're coming to attack us?"
Chu Yu's eyes swept over the left hand that she was holding, and redness slowly crept up to his ears. He turned his head away and explained.
"Yes, the news must have leaked out, otherwise they wouldn't come here at this time when it's almost dark! Don't worry, I know what's going on. I'll go take a look first and buy some time to detoxify you."
After hearing this, Xiao Lingling not only did not let go of him, but held him even tighter. "How many people are there? Are you going to take them all with you?"
It’s not that she looked down on the Chu family army, but the number of them was too small, not even as many as her own palace soldiers.
Chu Yu certainly knew what she meant, but this was all he could mobilize now.
The situation next door is much more serious than his here, and if he wants to transfer people, Qin Zheng will definitely make a fuss, which will waste time and easily miss the opportunity to fight.
"We don't know how many people there are right now, but it shouldn't be too many. They're sure everyone on our side is sick, so they won't send many people. Don't worry, we're just buying time, we won't confront them head-on.
Okay, there's no time to waste. Let's head out first, and leave the rest to you! You guys are the most important here!"
Chu Yu patted Xiao Lingling's hand to signal her to be at ease, then immediately counted the number of people and set off with the army.
Xiao Lingling was still worried, but she also knew that now was not the time to be pretentious.
She followed Jiang Xinian to check the patients' pulses first. Sure enough, they were all poisoned by the same kind of poison, which should be a newly made poison that had never been seen before and was not recorded in previous notes.
Jiang Xinian's face darkened, "This person is truly vicious! This poison is incredibly disgusting. At first, there was no reaction. Even those with weaker bodies would only experience diarrhea or something like that.
Most people don't take this seriously, but it's actually attacking people's internal organs.
Once the poison takes effect, the symptoms will rapidly worsen, and by then it will be too late even if you want to research an antidote.
However, you've mastered the method, so it's good that you can temporarily stabilize it. I'll go develop an antidote right away. Xiao Lingdang, come and help your master.
Also, Xue girl, a group of people should be arriving to help by tomorrow at the latest. When they arrive, have them immediately go buy some herbs according to this list. Understand?"
Jiang Xinian said this while writing the prescription on his hand.
In fact, it is not a complete prescription, but some symptomatic medicines that Jiang Xinian knows will be useful.
He didn't bring some less popular items, and even the pharmacy didn't have them available, so he had to buy them at home.
Xiao Lingling took it and took a look at it, then crossed out the ones in her own space.
"Just buy these remaining four items, and I'll take care of the rest."
Xue Zhining nodded, finally breathing a sigh of relief. "Okay, I'll arrange it right away. If you have any other needs, just tell me and I'll do my best to satisfy them."
Jiang Xinian knew that she was thinking about the war ahead, so he waved his hand and let her go and get busy.
The master and disciple entered the tent, and Xiao Lingling quickly put out the tools that were convenient for him.
Looking at the various medicinal herbs and tools on the table, Jiang Xinian couldn't help but twitched his lips, "Looking at you like this, are you not going to hide your incompetence?"
Little Bell was speechless, "Master, don't I have no secrets from you? Besides, it's already this time, so why should I bother hiding my shortcomings?
So many lives are at stake! (How much merit does this have to be? She would have to be stupid to be so pretentious about such a mess.)"
Of course, she didn't say the second half of the sentence, but Jiang Xinian guessed it.
He smiled and immediately had two patients brought in. He began to perform acupuncture according to the patients' current conditions, and used bloodletting to further determine the various components in the poison.
Developing an antidote is a very long process, and the two of them were so fully committed that they didn't even notice the passage of time.
Less than five miles away from the tent, there is a small canyon. The hills on both sides are not high and the vegetation on them is not lush, so it is impossible to hide people.
Chu Yu still led his men to both sides, and dealt with the traps that had been dug before along the way to hide the traces.
Soon, the sound of a large number of horses galloping could be heard, and even the ground beneath their feet seemed to be shaking.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for the barbarians to fall into the trap.
The barbarians were extremely arrogant at this moment, laughing loudly while riding their horses, and the eager expression on their faces was extremely obvious, without any concealment.
"Hahahaha, today I finally got to gnaw off a piece of Qingyang's flesh. After such a long stalemate, I finally got something!"
"Who says not? Once we take down their main camp, I'm going to give it a good three days and three nights. This effortless feeling is so satisfying."
"They boasted about how powerful they were before, but now they've been destroyed by their own people. This time, we must attack their capital directly with one blow.
From now on, we no longer have to live in such a small place. From now on, everyone can eat whatever they want and do whatever they want!
Brothers, charge——————"
Sure enough, thinking of the good days after taking over the border, everyone was like a chicken with its blood pumped up, rushing forward howling.
Until some horses began to fall into traps because of missing steps, and the originally unstoppable formation began to be disrupted.
