Chapter 2 Gu Poison
This is the tenth time Fang Zilan complained about the inconvenience of transportation in ancient times. Now sitting on the horse, she only feels that her whole body is about to be distracted.
If she hadn't been in a hurry, she wouldn't be able to ride a horse even if she was beaten to death. Fang Zilan secretly complained to herself. She didn't know that she could only reach the north by walking in the year of the monkey and the month of the horse. It was also a problem for horse-drawn carriages, so she could only choose to ride a horse.
However, her body seemed to be able to withstand the toss and struggles. She had been traveling for more than ten days in a row, and except for being so uncomfortable that she felt really uncomfortable.
It seems that Fang Zilan, who was the one who was before, could ride a horse, and she should have ridden well. After all, when she first got on the horse, she thought she would be thrown off by a horse. Unexpectedly, she was familiar with the way, as if she was uncontrollable, and was purely physical instinct.
But how could a concubine from the prime minister's family ride so well? Fang Zilan has more and more questions, but she has no clue. In the past two days, she can occasionally think of some things about Fang Zilan in this era.
For example, how Fang Zilan died, and some clips of her life in the Prime Minister’s Mansion before, but why a daughter-in-law in the Prime Minister’s Mansion could be a killer, she never remembered.
Forget it, don’t think about it if you can’t remember it. Fang Zilan flattened her mouth. It was almost dark. It seemed that she could only sleep in the suburbs today.
"Little brother, we can only sleep in this suburb tonight." A voice broke Fang Zilan's thoughts. It was Uncle Qi, the leader of the caravan.
Fang Zilan met this caravan in Pingshan City last night. When she found out that they were going to Yanzhou, she tried every means to get the leader Uncle Qi to take her with her, and even dressed up as a man for the sake of convenience.
Originally, Fang Zilan planned to arrive at the northern border alone, but when she arrived in Pingshan City two days ago, she realized that she did not recognize the way. It was estimated that the owner of this body had been to Pingshan City at the farthest distance, and he didn't know how to go further north.
As for going to Yanzhou, it was because I heard along the way that King Xiang is now leading troops to garrison in Yanzhou.
"Oh, it's okay." Fang Zilan said as she had already tied the reins and stopped the horse. "I'm taking care of Uncle Qi, I..." Unexpectedly, she was halfway through her words, and Fang Zilan felt dizzy and fell down from the horse.
"Little brother!"
Fang Zilan could no longer tell who was calling her. She could only hear her voice trembling violently. She was saying: "Medicine..."
What medicine is there? Fang Zilan thought about this problem when she fainted. What medicine was she talking about subconsciously?
"girl?"
Fang Zilan blinked her eyes with difficulty, feeling that her whole body was in great pain. She reluctantly opened her eyes, and what caught her eye was Uncle Qi and an old man in the caravan.
They called themselves girls just now? It seemed that the woman was discovered dressed as a man. Fang Zilan sighed helplessly. She was about to speak, but she was so painful that she took a breath of air conditioning. It hurts so much that it was broken, right? Fang Zilan called out to herself.
"Don't worry girl." The old man was speaking, "Although you fell off the horse, it was nothing serious. It's just..."
But? It seems more troublesome than breaking a bone. Fang Zilan couldn't help frowning, but she grinned again in pain.
"You are poisoned, but I'm afraid your life will not last long."
What? Fang Zilan didn't care about the pain in her body at all, her eyes were wide open. What a joke? She told her that she was poisonous in her body soon after she came over. She still wanted to go back.
"But..." The old man stroked his beard with a serious expression.
But? Fang Zilan was immediately angry. Half of this kind of speech was really fatal.
"I just saw the medicine you took. Although it was also highly poisonous, it seemed to be able to restrain the poison in your body." Fang Zilan looked at the small porcelain bottle in his hand, and it seemed that it was this.
"Girl, you'd better tell the truth." Uncle Qi looked at her with a serious face, "Who are you?"
"I'm just an ordinary person." Fang Zilan said this with difficulty, feeling that her body hurt a little more.
"How can ordinary people get so strangely poisoned? Girl, don't lie anymore." The old man's expression was a little unhappy, but he was a little more exploratory.
"I'm a killer." Fang Zilan decided to tell the truth. She had watched the powerful people who played in TV series before, and in order to ensure the loyalty of the killer, they would take poison. Now it's better to bet.
"You..." As she expected, the two of them were so shocked that they could not speak.
"Then what's your intention to get involved in our caravan?" Seeing that she had no ability to hurt people, Uncle Qi asked boldly.
"I just went to Yanzhou to find my husband." Fang Zilan couldn't help but shed tears. Of course, the words were fake, but the tears were real, although they were completely crying in pain.
"I was originally a killer raised by the adults in Beijing. Later, I failed a mission and was almost executed by the adults. Fortunately, I was rescued by my husband. He also helped me escape. In order to repay him, I promised him. Unexpectedly, war suddenly broke out in the northern border, and he had to follow King Xiang to quell the rebellion. I was afraid that something would happen to him, so I wanted to go to Yanzhou to see him, even if I could see him for the last time."
These words were filled with tears. Even Fang Zilan herself felt in her heart that it was a pity that she was not an actor, but it was also the poison on her body that helped her. If it didn't hurt so much, she wouldn't cry.
"So that's it." Uncle Qi was a little moved, and the old man sighed, "Then the poison on your body?"
"In order to ensure the loyalty of us killers, we have all been convinced." Fang Zilan looked pitiful. This is a lie.
"What a miserable child." The old man couldn't help but sigh, and Fang Zilan asked in a vain: "Old man, can my poison be cured?"
"This..." the old man hesitated for a moment, and decided to report it to the truth. "I am ashamed to say that I am a little talented and knowledgeable, and I have never seen such a strange poison."
"This poison is strange?" Fang Zilan couldn't help but frowned. Only then did she realize that her body seemed to be less painful. She felt it hurt even after moving for a while, but now she has been talking for a long time, but it doesn't hurt much.
"Yes, it's said it's poison, but it seems to be sealed in your body. This makes you as ordinary people as ordinary people on weekdays. But the medicine you take..." The old man looked at the porcelain bottle in his hand again, frowned, "This medicine is also highly poisonous. I have seen it in a broken scroll, and it should undoubtedly be the Soul-Breaking Grass. This Soul-Breaking Grass is a normal person who will die in one mouthful. But according to my observation, girl, you should take this medicine frequently, and take it once every three months. What I said is right?"
"Yes." Fang Zilan answered subconsciously, but she couldn't help but be shocked. She had also heard of using poison to fight poison, but she used such a powerful poison, so the poison on her body was really beyond help.
The old man said quietly, "In my humble opinion, the girl is afraid that she is not to treat the poison, but to seal the poison in your body."
"How is that possible?" Fang Zilan looked disbelief. How could he use poison to block another poison?
"Miss, don't be afraid, this is just a guess of my old man." The old man handed over the porcelain bottle in his hand. Fang Zilan hesitated for a moment, but still reached out to take it. "You said it's okay."
"Miss, you are not poisoned, but someone has been poisoned by a poison." The old man sighed and continued to say to himself, "And you take the Soul-Breaking Grass once every three months is raising this poison."
"Since it's nourishing, will this poison become more and more powerful?" Fang Zilan became more and more afraid of thinking, and her voice trembled a little.
The old man thought and said slowly: "It should be so, but although the Soul-Breaking Grass can raise this poison, it also seals this poison while raising it, which makes you no different from ordinary people."
What is the difference between drinking poison to quench thirst? Fang Zilan really wants to cry now. Even if this poison can be cured, she has eaten so many soul-breaking grass, which is enough to turn the poison on her body into the poison of the medicine Shi Wuling.
"Girl..." The old man couldn't bear to see her so sad. After thinking for a while, he still spoke, "Actually, this poison..."
"Do you have any way to relieve the poison on my body?" Seeing this, Fang Zilan felt some hope.
The old man shook his head and said sadly: "There is no way, but according to my uncle's opinion, your poison will not take your life for a while." It won't take your life. What is this saying? She hasn't heard of any poison that can kill you.
"But there is something I still want to remind the girl." The old man's expression became a little serious, and Fang Zilan's heart skipped a beat. Could there be anything more toxic than this?
"Try not to let others know about your poisoning."
"Why is this?" Fang Zilan was a little puzzled, but when we met by chance, the old man didn't have to worry too much about himself.
"If you let someone with ulterior motives know about your poison, you will be afraid that the consequences will be worrying." Fang Zilan was a little chilled when she heard this. This was clearly the case that those who were interested would treat her as a guinea pig if they knew that she was in a strange poison.
"Thank you for your advice." Fang Zilan thanked him with a deep heart while thinking about how he would go next.
This dynasty is much more complicated than she thought, and various forces are complicated. Now she doesn't know who she is serving for, but she knows very well that she can't escape it. Now only by being careful every step of the way can she have the chance to return to the original world.
Fang Zilan thought to herself, suddenly a little scared. Although she had read a lot of unreliable time travel novels, she had never regarded them as real. Now she really traveled through time and felt that there was nothing else but helplessness. She was at ease when she came. All she could feel now was her inner uneasiness.
"Girl?" Uncle Qi's voice pulled back Fang Zilan's thoughts. She forced a smile, "I'm fine, I just don't know what my husband is now, I'm just a little worried."
The words that seemed true or false, accompanied by her uneasy expression, made the people around her believe it.
"Not good..." The servant beside Uncle Qi ran over with panic and staggered in front of several people.
"Why are you so panicked?" Uncle Qi's expression was a little unhappy, but he heard the servant say, "His Highness Xiang is trapped in Fenghe Valley, Yanzhou is in a hurry. I'm afraid that the Jin man will be called soon."
"What?" Uncle Qi changed his expression when he heard this and hurriedly ordered the servant to summon the caravan and walk back.
"Girl?" Uncle Qi looked at Fang Zilan on the side, but saw the firmness on her face almost crazy, "Several people, let's leave, there will be a date later." Fang Zilan's voice was not loud, but it was enough to calm everyone around her. No one spoke, and no one stopped her. At that moment, the momentum on her body made them breathless.
As she turned over the horse, Fang Zilan's heart was full of incredibleness, as if she was uncontrollable, but it seemed that the lie had become true. There were really people she was thinking about on the battlefield.
With almost crazy thoughts, she rode her horse to Yanzhou City not far away without hesitation.
A long time later, when Fang Zilan thought of this moment again, even if she didn't believe in fate, she had to admit that all the anxiety and unknown could not resist the crazy thoughts at that time.
The place she ran to was the fate she chose.
With the identity of a killer and being poisoned by the poison, our protagonist Fang Zilan officially opened the hard mode copy - the King Xiang of the North Realm.
