The soldiers of Li County inside and outside the Zhengcang City Government Office were heavily fortified, especially the blood knights guarding some key positions. Each of them exuded a heavy sense of oppression, so that other soldiers had to stay away from them unwillingly. Have too many interactions with them.
The security was extremely tight.
There were two courtyards in the backyard of the government office that were most heavily surrounded by soldiers. One was the small courtyard where several people from Luochuan lived, who were guarded both inside and outside by blood cavalry. The other was the courtyard of Shen Cheng, the master of Zhengcang, which was not far away.
At this time, the night was dark, gloomy and moonless, and the entire city of Zhengcang was plunged into endless darkness. Only two weak lights were left in the backyard of the government office.
There was silence, and everything was sleeping. Suddenly, there was a slight noise in the backyard of the government office. At first, it was just the courtyard where Shen Cheng was, and then it spread to the entire government office like ripples of a stone dropped on a calm lake.
When ten blood knights galloped out of the city to a secluded house in the north of the city, and then half-forced a doctor and the boy carrying the medicine box for him back to the government office, half of the city of Zhengcang probably They all woke up quietly.
The gate of the government office was open, and an unknown number of soldiers held torches to light up the road, forming a fire dragon in the dark night and frightening the doctor and the boy. However, the ten blood knights just urged the old doctor on his way, looking very embarrassed.
After passing through a series of doors, the doctor finally arrived at Shen Cheng's courtyard and entered the largest room.
The lights in the room were not very bright. Although there were many candles lit, it still looked dim. The doctor hunched over and saluted everyone in the room while walking to the bedside where Shen Cheng was. When he walked to the bedside, he just looked at the person on the bed. Shen Cheng's expression changed at a glance, and his right hand quickly touched Shen Cheng's veins. He frowned deeply and felt it for a while, then slowly sighed, put Shen Cheng's arms back under the quilt and covered him, then stood up and faced The leader of the blood cavalry who brought him said, "Sir, the poison that this general has been poisoned has penetrated deeply into his muscles. Without strong medicine, he may not be able to recover, but if he uses strong medicine... ugh... .”
The tall leader of the blood cavalry was none other than Luo Changgong. His face mask was still covered and his voice was clear and clear, "If this is the case, we can only treat the horse as a living doctor. At least ask a doctor to give it a try."
"This..." The old doctor seemed a little embarrassed. He raised his head and glanced at Luo Changgong's eyes under the mask and then involuntarily turned his gaze to other places in the room. "What if I gave this general a strong dose of medicine?" As a result, he... I really can't bear this responsibility, sir..."
"If you don't give it a try, General Shen Pi will be dead. If you give it a try, it might be possible to save him. We all understand the reason behind this. There is absolutely no reason to blame the doctor afterwards." Luo Changgong took two steps back and stretched out his hand. "Doctor, General Shen Pi has coughed up blood several times tonight and there is no time to delay. Please ask the doctor to prepare medicine as soon as possible!"
The old doctor had a bitter look on his face and looked around quickly as if he was at a loss. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said as if he had made up his mind, "Okay, the old man will risk his own life to prepare a medicine. With this general, In the current state, I am afraid that even if this medicine can really cure the poison, it will have some other effects. When the time comes, please ask this gentleman to intercede on my behalf!"
After speaking, without waiting for Luo Changgong's reply, he took the arm of the boy beside him who was still in a daze and strode out of the house, looking determined to die.
But when the front legs of the old man and the young man had just stepped out of the door, green light erupted from all over the body of the originally rickety old man. The old medicine box carried on the boy's back suddenly opened a hole, and a handle The short and slender flying sword that looked like a kitchen knife jumped out, with a green light, it turned towards the old man's feet and turned into a sword light two or three meters long, carrying him to the sky. In the blink of an eye, it had already flown several times. Ten feet!!
Luo Changgong pushed the stunned boy away, stepped out of the room in two steps, and threw the long sword in his hand into the air. He made a sign in his hand to lift the sword and was about to chase it, but saw a tiny green streak in the distance. With a flash of light, the green light that flew away quickly was cut into two pieces!
Luo Changgong was startled, and then saw Luo Chuan pushing open the courtyard door and walking in.
Behind him, Si Qi, Hua Yu and the young female Taoist followed easily.
"It's okay," Luo Chuan smiled and waved to Luo Changgong, then strode to the stone steps in front of Shen Cheng's house and sat down. He looked at the shadow falling from the sky and held the rickety old man in his hand and said, "Doctor, give it to Shen Cheng." General Pi has cured his illness well, so why are you leaving? He still has to walk away with his sword, tsk tsk, are you going to fly all the way back to Guangjun in the north?"
The rickety old man who was casually thrown to the ground by the shadow had a pale face. He was coughing and vomiting blood. He looked miserable. However, he still wanted to laugh. After a while, he stopped coughing and said in a hoarse voice, "Why don't you fly back to Guang County?" Are you waiting to be beheaded by you bunch of stray dogs?"
He laughed loudly and the blood and dust stained his gray clothes, making it a mess. "But when I die, I can take you Li Gou and be buried with him. It's worth it, hahaha..."
"Who said that Shen Pi will be buried with such a thing like you?" Luo Chuan showed a sarcastic smile, looking at the rickety old man as if he were a clumsy fool, "Now that your identities have been exposed, then this city of Zhengcang has something to do with your identities. All...will die!"
He stared at the eyes of the rickety old man and every expression on his face, and suddenly said with a playful smile, "Old man, it seems that you are really not the steward sent by Yun Bailou to Zhengcang City. Just now you and I When you said these words, your eyes looked towards...!"
Before Luo Chuan could finish his words, a brilliant golden light bloomed from behind him. The light was so sharp that even the soldiers in this courtyard who did not look directly at the light were stabbed to tears!
It was Luo Chuan who felt the sting even more!
Because the moment the golden light bloomed, he felt a sharp prick on the back of his neck, as if he had been stung by a bee, which made him shrink involuntarily!
However, the golden light disappeared faster than it appeared. Almost as soon as the golden light bloomed, it disappeared like glass and jade!!
Luo Chuan touched his neck and took a look at the slumped old man who was pinned to the ground by Luo Changgong's sword. Then Shi Shiran turned around and stared at the pile of rubble that was stepped on by Shadow's foot. The boy who was carrying the medicine box with bleeding from his orifices was not surprised at all, "Tell me where the person who is proficient in the art of disguise is, and I will make your two deaths easier."
The boy smiled miserably but spoke in a female voice, "You will never find him...but he is by your side..."
Luo Chuan shook his head and suddenly felt a little unmotivated. "Playing with people like you is actually quite boring. I really don't know why Yun Bailou still enjoys it after doing it for so many years," he rushed Shadow made a killing gesture and then turned around and entered Shen Cheng's room.
In the room, Shen Cheng could already sit up with the help of a soldier. Although his face was still pale and his lips were bloodless, the layer of gray that originally enveloped his skin was gone. When he saw Luo Chuan coming in, he wanted to stand up and salute. , Luo Chuan raised his hand to stop him.
"Although the poison has been cured, the injury is still an injury after all. Even with your strength and body, it still needs some time to heal," Luo Chuan stood in the middle of the room and said slowly, "We will leave Zhengcang City early tomorrow morning. You can wait until the injury is stable." Going to the military camp should not be a big problem there. The focus is still on keeping an eye on the actions of Yongchang County. How the crazy old man will attack is still a question mark. I need to get to Liangcang City as soon as possible before the crazy old man does anything. Take some time."
Shen Cheng responded with a tired voice, and Luochuan turned around and left.
When they came out of the courtyard, the two doctors had already been taken away. Only Ying Ying and Luo Changgong were still waiting here. Luo Chuan walked out of the courtyard without saying a word. After returning to his small courtyard, he turned his head and faced Shadow said, "There is something wrong with the soldier next to Shen Cheng in the room just now... Deal with him and protect Shen Cheng...!"
