Chapter 216 Chapter Forty-Three

Chapter Forty-Three After returning, he was bedridden and ill. Because the war in Chuzhou was about to start, he was sent to Xuzhou to be raised by the public. After a few years, he recovered. ——"The History of Chu in the Southern Dynasties."The Legend of Jiang Suiyun" When Wei Ying and Ling Yu were fighting fiercely on the cliff, there was already silence on the mountain road down the cliff. Everyone on the cliff thought that the poisonous smoke was raging and there would be no more disasters, so they didn't pay attention to the movement below, but they didn't know that the smoke that hadn't dispersed There are hidden caves in the poisonous smoke.When the person disguised as a sergeant of the Forbidden Army rushed to Madam Lu to reveal his identity, it was the time when Wei Ying launched a poisonous attack. It was already on the verge of collapse, the sergeant didn't care about explaining, took out a jade bottle from his bosom, poured out some pills, and said hastily: "This is Han Yuan's secret medicine, it can cure all kinds of poisons, Madam, take it quickly. "

Mrs. Lu has already figured it out at this moment, this person must be an expert sent by Jiang Zhe to protect her mother and child. Although she is a noble lady in Southern Chu, Mrs. Lu often hears her husband talking about Jiang Zhe, so she has no idea about Jiang Zhe. Excessive repulsion, but he changed his mind, thinking that if he took the antidote, he would have received the grace of Dayong, and hesitation flashed in his eyes. At this time, although everyone in the Lu family had received the antidote, they all looked at Mrs. Lu, waiting for her death. At this time, the poisonous smoke had filled the air, and everyone was on the verge of collapse. Never took the antidote.Seeing this, the sergeant sighed in his heart, but he didn't say anything to persuade him. He is Qu Huang, one of the eight steeds. He has always known that Jiang Zhe and Lu Can have the deepest master-student friendship. Although they parted ways, they still care about each other. This time, Jiang Zhe Zhe couldn't afford to be sick because of Lu Can's death, so although Qu Huang respected Lu Can as a person, he was also jealous, so he deliberately kept quiet and tried to test Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu's eyes flashed, her eyes showed pain, she put the antidote into her mouth, and seeing her accept it, everyone in the Lu family took the medicine individually, but two young children were unable to take the medicine, so they took the antidote with the help of their companions. Seeing that everyone had taken the antidote, Qu Huang felt relieved, this antidote is very precious, even Ba Jun and others only have ten or eight pills for self-defense at most, but this time, Mr. , I thought it was unnecessary at first, but I didn't expect to use it, otherwise the antidote on my body would definitely not be enough.Looking at the remaining seven antidotes in the bottle, Qu Huang shook his head slightly and wanted to put them away.

At this time, Ding Ming had already come to the front. If a martial arts practitioner encountered danger, his first reaction was to protect himself. As soon as the poisonous smoke fell, he held his breath to resist, and immediately took some antidotes that were always on his body, but it was not very effective. Ding Ming was powerless to see his comrades in the bloody battle for the rest of his life were poisoned and fell down. Fortunately, at this time, the people in Fengyimen were already panicking, so Ding Ming issued an order to break out and wait until he led his people back to the bottom of the cliff. , wanting to encourage and support everyone from the Lu family to rush out, but seeing Mrs. Lu and the others are safe and sound, he didn't pay attention to the subsequent changes just now, but now he was stunned when he saw such a strange situation, his mind was shocked, and he was definitely on the verge of falling .

Although Mrs. Lu who had taken the antidote still felt a little sick, she no longer felt dizzy and tight in the chest. When she saw Ding Ming and others coming, she quickly asked Qu Huang, "Do you have any antidote, sir?" With a flash of his yellow eyes, he saw Ding Ming and the few people behind him suppressing their breath and their faces turned dark. Thinking that they did not seek to escape but came to save others first, respect arose in his heart, and he thought that he had not been ordered to kill them. They buried together, sighed, and handed over the remaining pills.Seeing that Mrs. Lu was safe and sound, Ding Ming also knew that the pill was effective. Although he didn't know how the sergeant had the antidote, he quickly took it and gave it to everyone, but there were only seven pills left, and including Ding Ming, eight people made it to Now, Ding Ming hesitated for a moment, and quickly put the last antidote into the mouth of a companion who was close to coma beside him, but because he had held his breath for too long, his face was flushed, and he couldn't hold it any longer. Suddenly, the world was spinning, and coldness rushed into the whole body.His body softened, but he was supported by someone, and then a pill was stuffed into his mouth. After a while, he gradually came to his senses, and saw the plain-looking imperial guard staring at him, and couldn't help but whisper: " Thank you for saving your life, who are you?"

Qu Huang sighed softly: "Ding Daxia, don't blame me. The antidote is gone. I gave you the medicine that fights poison with poison. No matter what kind of poison it is, it can suppress it for a while, but if you don't get a diagnosis and treatment from a famous doctor afterwards I am afraid that my life will not be saved, and I am not afraid to tell you my identity. Xiaquhuang is a registered disciple of Jianghou. This time I was ordered to protect Mrs. Lu's family going south. Come here to replace him and mix into the escorted guards, and now you have to reveal your identity, Ding Daxia needs to think about helping each other, how about we wait until we get through the difficulties and then worry about this matter?"

Although Ding Ming was shocked, he vaguely felt that this should be the case. Everyone in the south of the Yangtze River knew about the worship of Hou Jiangzhe's Guangling in Chu Township. Now that Lu Can is dead, the hostility between Jiang Zhe and the Lu family is no longer, so it is also a good idea to protect the descendants of the Lu family. Of course, although he was still wary of the hidden methods of the sergeant who called himself Qu Huang, he didn't care about it at the moment, and said in a low voice: "There is a fight at the top, how about we protect Mrs. Lu and leave here first?" Although Hearing the voice on the cliff, he already knew Wei Ying's intention to die together, but when he thought of Wei Ying's behavior of disregarding the enemy and himself, he still had lingering hatred in his heart, and he was unwilling to go up to help, not to mention that although he temporarily suppressed the poison, his strength was weak , although everyone has detoxified, they still feel the blood surging, and they are unable to fight.Everyone agreed, and they sneaked away from this place under Qu Huang's guidance. At this time, the mountain road was full of Fengyi sect disciples who fell to the ground and did not know whether they were alive or dead. Ding Ming and the others were secretly shocked. It is also impossible to escape the harm of poisonous smoke.At this time, although everyone was still on guard, it was inconvenient to show suspicion and followed Qu Huang.

After walking for a long time, the sky was almost completely dark at this time, and the mountain road was treacherous to the south. In the darkness, even with the support of Ding Ming and others, it was inevitable that he would stumble. Seeing that he had walked a long way, Qu Huang took out a bunch of Night pearls, the pearl light is not very bright, if it is difficult to detect from a distance, but it can illuminate a radius of Zhang Xu around, but this string of night pearls is already extremely precious, not to mention that each of the string of pearls is about the same size, round and crystal clear, without any traces of light. Flawless and truly priceless.Ding Ming and the others were dazzled at the beginning, but after all, they were people with a strong will, otherwise they would not have been able to give birth to a Jedi. When they woke up, they didn't understand why this person took out the pearl to show off.Qu Huang didn't seem to pay attention to everyone's expressions, he tore off the beads, distributed the Ye Mingzhu to everyone, and then walked first, so that everyone understood what Qu Huang meant.Ding Ming, who was walking at the back, sighed in his heart. Although he only borrowed the pearl for lighting, he had such a heroic spirit. It is only natural that Yong can sweep the world.

After walking for a long time, Qu Huang led the crowd into a valley, and saw that several tents had already been set up there, and the traces of the soil were still fresh. It was obvious that they had just been set up, and the tents were probably built in less than half an hour. Among them, bedding, hot water, and hot food have been prepared, but there is not even a single person.Qu Huang asked everyone to rest inside, Ding Ming frowned and said nothing, this person was well prepared here, could it be that his own experience was included in this person's plan, but at this time it is inconvenient to ask more questions, let Qu Huang command and dispatch, just I feel that this person looks ordinary and looks ordinary, but seeing that he has a calm demeanor and a determined command, it seems that he claims to be Jiang Zhe's disciple, and there is no lie in it.

At this moment, a voice of surprise came from Mrs. Lu's tent. Ding Ming was shocked. He didn't care about his defenses. He hurried over and opened the curtain. Much better, and she is wiping the tears on her mother's face with her small hands. Ding Ming was also very pleasantly surprised, but hurriedly backed away, just in time to see Qu Huang smiling slightly, and was about to ask each other, at this time Ku Zhuzi sneered: "Could it be that you and Wei Ying have teamed up again, no wonder Wei Ying wants to join forces with you What about the fire at Fengyi Gate?" Qu Huang's face turned cold, and he had a stern look, and said lightly: "What are you talking about, Wei Ying is a traitor, how can my husband cooperate with him. It's just that there are so many people sent by the husband, they have already affixed it Wei Ying was just looking for an opportunity to rescue Mr. Lu. If I hadn't received a message from my companions and learned of the poison attack, I would have been too late to save you all. The news of Mr. Lu was only obtained on the way, and someone has already treated him. After that, the prescription is on the desk in the account, and the medicine has been prepared, and Madam Lu's maid can decoct the medicine for him to take, and I think it can save Mr. Lu from the trouble of not acclimatizing."

Kuzhuzi was stunned and Ding Ming sighed, "Master Jiang is really amazing. No wonder I always hear the sound of birds singing on the roadside cliffs, and I have a faint feeling that someone is watching in the dark. If I want to come here, I have already controlled it." Among them?" Qu Huang sneered and said: "People in the Jianghu of Southern Chu love to treat the belly of a gentleman with a villain's heart. What kind of person is Hou Ye, who would take advantage of others' danger? You people are not in his eyes. The risk is only for the safety of Mrs. Lu's mother and child." Ding Ming was silent, knowing that what this person said was the truth, how could people like himself be seen by Da Yong's important ministers like Jiang Zhe, but if Mrs. Lu's mother and son were controlled by Yong people, it would definitely affect the morale of Southern Chu. But he couldn't raise any objections, the life and death struggle along the way was enough to stop anyone from moving forward. At this time, a gentle and firm voice came from behind the two of them and said: "Jianghou Lord's kindness, my mother and son are very grateful, but my late husband has warned us that survivors should not seek refuge in the enemy's country for their lives." The two turned their heads when they heard the sound, and saw Mrs. Lu standing not far away, with a peaceful expression on her face, as if what she said was just ordinary words, rather than gently letting go of life. Qu Huang felt more respect in his heart, stepped forward to salute and said: "Ma'am, Southern Chu is no longer a paradise, and Dingyuan is even more a land of miasma. Madam and the young master are both rich, how can they drown the dangerous land? The Marquis has already made arrangements." , as long as Madam is willing, she can sail straight to the Northland, and Lord Hou can also promise that she will never use the identities of Madam and Young Master to do anything harmful to Nanchu." Mrs. Lu said indifferently: "Hou Ye Jinnuo, survivors are naturally trustworthy. Now Dayong doesn't need to use orphans and widows to attract people's hearts, but the Lu family is a subject of Southern Chu, and even if he dies, he will die in Southern Chu. Letting down Zhongliang, but the Lu family will never let down the imperial court, although Dingyuan is a dangerous place, but since it is ordered by the imperial court, the survivors cannot disobey the will." Qu Huang said solemnly: "The Lu family is loyal and loyal, I respect you, but the traitorous emperor of Southern Chu destroyed the Great Wall by himself and didn't think about loyalty. Why should my wife never forget such a court? The Marquis doesn't want my wife to betray the motherland, but just thinks about it in the old days. Teacher-student relationship, I don’t want the general to wither after death.” Mrs. Lu put on her bow and said, "Your Excellency spared no expense of life and death, took risks, and rescued the widow and my youngest son. I am grateful for this kind of kindness. Even if you want the widow to repay you with death, I will not have any complaints. The only thing that cannot be done is absolutely impossible, for the sake of loyalty, my husband sacrificed himself for the sake of his life, and the concubine does not dare to say that she will inherit the legacy of her husband, but she cannot abandon her family and country and live in peace with the world." Hearing the words, Ding Ming stepped forward and said, "Madam's words are like enlightenment. The general died at the hands of a traitor. We all feel chilled, and many volunteers abandoned the army. Today, I heard Madam's words Knowing that I am not as good as Madam who understands the principle of loyalty, if I survive Wu Yue, I will pass on Madam's words to everyone, even if I die on the battlefield, I will never let the Yong army's iron cavalry go south." There were faint tears in Mrs. Lu's eyes, and she said: "If my husband knows that Daxia Ding thinks this way, he will surely rest in peace." The expression on Qu Huang's face fluctuated, and he said after a long time: "Hero Ding knows that his life is still in our hands. Even if I let the hero return to Wuyue, the poison on your body has not been relieved. Most of the Qihuang holy hands who can heal you are still there. Dayong, we don't need to worry too much, Your Excellency will not live long." Ding Ming smiled calmly and said, "To be able to live so many years is already a gift from Your Excellency. Although many people are greedy for life and afraid of death, if your Excellency threatens you with death, you will underestimate it." Qu Huang Wenyan smiled slightly and said: "People don't fear death, so why should they be afraid of it? Daxia Ding is too underestimated. I'm going to go back and return to my command. Although Duan Yue is dead, I have already taken care of the documents on his body If you fetch it, Hero Ding can escort Mrs. Lu to Dingyuan to do business for him. As for your hidden dangers, there is nothing you can do about it in the next moment, but if you have time, you might as well go to the Yue Clan in Nanmin to try it." After saying that, he bowed calmly. , then walked out, disappeared in a blink of an eye. Both Ding Ming and Mrs. Lu were taken aback. They both knew that this person had put in a lot of thought and thought that he would not give up until he achieved his goal. In fact, both of them had decided to face any result calmly. They didn't expect that this person would just let go. Let go, so decisive and free and easy, it is heartbreaking.The two looked at each other with worry in their eyes. After a long time, Mrs. Lu sighed lightly and went back to the tent. Qu Huang's figure was like a bird flying through the night, and it didn't take long before he saw the dim yellow pearl light in front of him, he was overjoyed, so he quickened his pace, walked closer, and saw a young man in shabby clothes standing on the mountain If it weren't for the shining pearl in his hand, even if he was a beggar, some people would believe him. Seeing the handsome and haggard face of the young man, Qu Huang felt pity in his heart, stopped behind the man, and said, "Yu Lun, why do you suffer so much? You refuse to return to the secret camp, but you insist on following us south to protect Mrs. Lu." Mother and son, aren't you afraid that Mr. Chen will kill you by the way?" Yu Lun didn't look back, and said in a low voice, "Is Mrs. Lu safe?" Qu Huang shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's all right now. Master Chen has already gone to negotiate with Xia Hou Yuanfeng, so that he won't take the opportunity to make things difficult and embarrass Mrs. Lu. Yu Lun, what are your plans for the future?" Yue Lun sighed: "I promised the general that I would not get involved in the dispute between the two countries. If I stayed in Jianye, I would not be able to avoid this matter, so I simply went south to escort Mrs. Lu's mother and child. If I can protect them, it will be regarded as The one-time encounter with the Great General is not in vain, since there is nothing else to do now, please return the Pearl to Bai Yi for me, I will leave now, and I will not say goodbye to him." Qu Huang sighed: "You are still so weird. You said you would go back to Jianye before, so you refused to stay in the secret camp. Now you are not going back to Jianye, why are you still refusing to come back?" Hearing this, Yue Lun's face suddenly showed embarrassment. Qu Huang and him were very familiar, and his heart moved, and he stepped forward and said, "Yu Lun, what's on your mind, can't you tell me? We are brothers and sisters for many years. You Why don't you tell me, maybe I can give you an idea." Yu Lun hesitated for a while, and finally said: "I thought I was just using her as a substitute, but these days I always think of her." Qu Huang felt happy in his heart, and said: "It turns out that you, the prodigal son, have also moved your heart, but that Miss Liu, you have been a violinist by her side for a long time, and it turns out that it is out of love and you can't help yourself. If that's the case, why don't you go Propose to her quickly, a gentle lady, a gentleman likes a good girl, Liu Rumeng is the chieftain of the south of the Yangtze River, with rare appearance and talent in the world, your character and talent are also rare, you are a natural couple, if you think there is no generous dowry, no Dare to speak out, we brothers will help you, and you will definitely marry a beautiful woman in a good way." As he spoke, he was thinking hard about what Yue Lun meant by being a substitute. Yu Lun didn't know what he was thinking, and said sadly: "Even if I have this heart, I dare not say it out loud. Rumeng admires loyal people the most, and the General is one of them. If she knows that I also have a part to frame the General, I'm afraid she won't forgive me." Qu Huang's expression changed, and he showed his face, "You are a fan of the authorities. Lu Can's death was caused by Shang Weijun. You just contributed to the flames and followed orders. What does this crime have to do with you? On the contrary, you also helped Lu Can , and now she is going south to protect Mrs. Lu, mother and son, if Miss Liu knows, she will only admire you, not to mention that no one else knows about your advice except Shang Weijun and his son, as long as you don't tell, who will know?" Yu Lun looked gloomy, just shook his head and said: "If you want people to know, you can't hide it from others unless you do nothing. What's more, when I saw the general committing suicide that day, I often thought, if I knew him before, no matter what No matter what, I won’t say anything to hurt him.” Seeing him so depressed, Qu Huang sighed: "It's really a pity. I have been in the south of the Yangtze River for many years. Although I have met him, I have never really met him. It was just a one-sided relationship. You feel so sorry for him. , I think this person must be the first-rate figure in the world!" Yue Lun said indifferently: "In terms of talent and ability, he is naturally inferior to Mr., but in terms of mind and ambition, no one in the world can match." Qu Huang's expression changed slightly, and he said after a long time: "Mr. has decided not to interfere with worldly affairs, and the Tianji Pavilion will disappear. If you still stay in the south of the Yangtze River, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to protect you." Yu Lun didn't make a sound, his eyes were full of indifference.
