Journey Starts From Wudang

Chapter 33. Zhao Xu is seriously ill

Lu Zhi glanced at the direction of Beggars' Sect with a playful expression.

Without Qiao Feng’s Beggars' Sect, it is estimated that this will be the case in the future. After all, Beggars' Sect can have such a prestige in the arena, and the momentum is so great. It is all due to Qiao Fengyi. Hit out with a stick in the palm.

Even when Wang Jiantong was the Gang Lord, Beggars' Sect also relied on Qiao Feng to fight on the battlefield.

Otherwise, after Wang Jiantong died, he would have to leave a secret letter to suppress Qiao Feng's behavior. How could he easily pass on the position of Gang Lord to Qiao Feng?

It’s not because of Qiao Feng’s martial arts talents, all of which belong to the cream of the crop of Beggars’ Sect, and for so many years for Beggars’ Sect to make a lot of contributions, so that he had to pass Qiao peak.

But now it’s alright. These Beggars' Sect beggars are self-destroying the city wall. They have to come up with such a trick, forcing Qiao Feng to quit Beggars' Sect.

As soon as Qiao Feng is gone, although Beggars' Sect has not yet been completed as a Third Rate Influence, but without Qiao Feng’s Beggars' Sect, now there is only one name left. When something happens, can you still expect people like Chen Guyan and Xu Chongxiao to stand up?

Don't say whether their temperament can do that kind of self-sacrificing, just say that even if they brace oneself on top, what can they do? Can they stand it?

After waiting a few seconds, Lu Zhi took the initiative to walk towards Qiao Feng and invited him.

"Qiao Gang.. No! Qiao Dao! Poor Daoist wants to go to the Apricot Forest for a while, Naxixia Grade 1, dare to ask Qiao Dao have any leisure time to go with Poor Daoist?"

p>

Qiao Feng cup one fist in the other hand in return, heroic said with a big smile: "hahaha, the Taoist invites him, Qiao Feng should come to the appointment by himself."

Although Qiao Feng already knows now Despite his own life experience, he is no longer Beggars' Sect Gang Lord, but his pride and justice remain unchanged.

After all, as Lu Zhi said, it is not that important to him whether the Han is or the Khitan. He will not undergo any changes due to the change of identity.

As for those brothers who would alienate him because of his Khitan's life experience... that is not a true brother friend, so why should he care about those people?

"Then, please."

"Please!"

The two of them walked towards the forest hand in hand, and many of the martial arts in the scene also had themselves. Joined in: "Master Lu, Daxia Qiao, I would like to go together!"

"Yes! There are so many dog ​​thieves in Xixia Grade 1, so let's go together and let Those Xixia dog thieves have a taste of the advantages of our Central Plains martial arts sword!"

Lu Zhi has no opinion on this. If these martial arts people can help out, it is naturally better, but it is better to be able to Directly gathered the power of everyone, and completely wiped out the Grade 1 hall in one fell swoop, so that the task can be completed as soon as possible.

But in the end, this counterattack against Xixia Grade 1 only ended hastily.

After everyone found the people in the Grade 1 hall in the forest, the two sides only fought for a moment, and realized that the plan had been exposed, the people of Xixia immediately began to retreat, leaving only a dozen Named Xixia warrior behind the palace, the large army burrowed into the forest, and soon disappeared.

At this moment, an emergency came from the rear, saying that someone had robbed Murong Fu and the others.

After Lu Zhi heard the news, he instantly lost the thought of chasing Grade 1 and simply let him go.

Returning to the previous clearing in the forest again, Lu Zhi squatted down and checked the corpse of the expert Ouchi who fell on the ground. His neck was twisted and it looked like There is almost no room for resistance. It can be seen that the person who killed him was definitely a great expert.

"Have you seen the appearance and figure of the murderer?" Lu Zhi asked another Ouchi expert who had survived.

This person was lucky. When the murderer struck him, he just kicked him, kicked him and hit him on the tree trunk and fainted, but he was left with his life.

The man shook the head: "Reporting back to .. Your lord.., the man is covered with a black scarf and has a face, and his humble position hasn't seen him clearly."

Seeing that he was seriously injured, Lu Zhi stepped forward and raised his hand to put his palm against his back heart, delivering True Qi healing for him.

"Then probably describe his body shape."

"Yes, sir." With the help of Lu Zhi Pure Yang True Qi, he is undoubtedly more comfortable, speaking At that time, he was not so uncomfortable anymore, "The murderer, long and thin, and his eyes are extremely bright, like a falcon."

"Also, he should be quite old, with a gray and white head."

Hair color, and some fine wrinkles around the corners of the eyes..."

Murong Bo! In an instant, this name appeared in Lu Zhi's heart. Although it was only a guess, Lu Zhi was more than 90% sure that he was the one who saved Murong Fu and the others!

didn't expect, this Murong Bo is also in this apricot forest today... That's right, there are so many martial artists gathered here today, and his son is still one of the protagonists of today’s conference One, it is normal for him to run over and take a look.

After half a stick of incense, Lu Zhi slowly recovered his work and ended his healing.

"Okay, you should be fine, the past few days take a good rest, in a few days, the injury should be able to heal."

"In addition, Please report this to Chen Mao after you wait, and see how he responds.” About Murong Bo, Lu Zhi had already talked to Chen Mao, but he never moved. , And asked Lu Zhi not to disclose the situation first... Chen Mao seems to be planning to use this to design the Shaolin.

After all, don't look at the shaolin monks who look like they are in peace, but in fact, the land on the boundary of Songshan is almost all Shaolin Temple!

You, a monk’s temple, actually owns so much land under your name, and you never tax the Imperial Court on the grounds of being a monk, let alone Chen Mao and Zhao Xu, even Lu Zhi In this case, it depends on the Shaolin Temple not pleasing to the eye.

The Xingzilin meeting almost ended there. All martial arts people began to return. After Lu Zhi, Qiao Feng, and Duan Yu had a drink, the three of them parted.

After being reminded by Lu Zhi, Qiao Feng would go home to see his adoptive parents, and plan to go to Shaolin to find his biological father.

To be honest, Lu Zhi never understood why Xiao Yuanshan wanted to kill Qiao Sanhuai and his wife when he was reading the original Heavenly Dragon. Big, really like his son.

So logically speaking, the two couples of Qiao Sanhuai were kind to Xiao Yuanshan, but Xiao Yuanshan killed the couple. This behavior is not Saying that he is a hero, even if he is a man, I am afraid that nothing like this will happen.

While drinking with Qiao Feng, Lu Zhi happened to think of this festival, so he informed Qiao Feng that his biological father Xiao Yuanshan was hiding in the Shaolin Hidden Scripture Pavilion and told him to remember to protect his own Foster parents.

While Duan Yu returned to Dali with Duan Zhengchun, Lu Zhi was going back to Bianliang.

Just two hours ago, Chen Mao sent him urgent news that Zhao Xu was suddenly ill and passed out during the morning.

Afterwards, even after having hired several imperial doctors, it was impossible to find out what disease Zhao Xu had suffered.

So Chen Mao wondered if Zhao Xu was really ill, and thought that Lu Zhi had a Pure Yang True Qi body, which could regulate his body and heal his injuries, so he hurried to send someone to him. Send the book urgently and send a message to Lu Zhi.

After learning of this news, Lu Zhi also recalled about Zhao Xu’s life. It seems that in history, Zhao Xu died of illness in his twenties. Combined with the news from Chen Mao, it corresponds to On it.

Then Lu Zhi hurried to move towards Bianliang. It would undoubtedly be a good thing to save Zhao Xu and continue his life for several decades.

After all, in the Song Dynasty, there are really not many emperors as aggressive and enterprising as Zhao Xu. If he can survive, it would be a good thing for the world.

Under the starry night, Lu Zhi has returned to Bianliang in just a few days, and without delay, he entered the Imperial Palace.

As soon as he stepped into the palace gate, Chen Mao emerged from nowhere, and went directly to Lu Zhi's side.

"You finally came back."

Lu Zhi said: "Let’s talk less gossip, how is the official situation?"

"the In the past few days, I took the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician and it was much better. However, the Essence, Qi, and Spirit have not seen any improvement. I suspect...the official is not sick, but by who. Maybe it’s the witch-gu overcoming technique! That’s why I specifically called you back to show the officials."

Lu Zhi: "..."

He glanced at Chen Mao, this old Court Eunuch, are you serious? Actually really believe that Wu Gu is overwhelming?

Chapter 34. After all, it’s a man-made disaster

Lu Zhi has been a monk for a long time, but so far, he has not really encountered any ghosts or spirits. That's why he didn't really believe Chen Mao's disgusting claim of Wu Gu.

Although there are some mysterious martial arts that can do such incomprehensible things, they are not really the first-rate Immortal God ghosts.

"Okay, let's go to see the official first together." He said.

"This... is also good." Chen Mao nodded suddenly remembered something ordinary and said, "By the way, Dao Qing Zhi, how can you exorcise evil and pray for blessing? How about waiting? Do you give it a try to the official?"

Lu Zhi: "..." It's still hard to get through, right?

At the moment, he ignores Chen Mao and just walks forward each minding their own business.

The two came all the way to Zhao Xu's bedroom, and after the little yellow door, who was the guard, entered the palace to report, the two were summoned by Zhao Xu.

"Chen Duzhi, Daoist Qing Zhi, you are here."

"Officials."

"How about your Majesty?"

Zhao Xu's face was a little pale and leaning against the bed, browsing slightly wrinkle, with a hint of pain, and he looked seriously ill.

Seeing Lu Zhi staring at Zhao Xu's face, Chen Mao couldn't help but ask him aloud: "How is it? Did you see anything? The official...but he was entangled in something dirty Are you on it?"

Lu Zhi glanced at Chen Mao obliquely, ignored him, and then bowed to Zhao Xu: "Officials, can you let Poor Daoist take a pulse for you?"

p>

"Dao Master Qing Zhi is polite, please come forward directly."

Lu Zhi then stepped forward, put his hand on Zhao Xu's wrist, and released a wisp of Pure Yang True Qi followed his meridian around in his body.

"How about Dao Qing Zhi? Is my situation really serious?" Seeing Lu Zhi's expression a little cautious, Zhao Xu couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

More than serious, Zhao Xu’s internal organs are already exhausted. If it were not for the prescriptions prescribed by the imperial doctor, and the precious medicine has been used to replenish his vitality, I am afraid that these Zhao Xu will stand up. The strength will not be there.

But Lu Zhi obviously would not tell the truth, lest Zhao Xu worry.

So he didn't answer at first, but followed the spiritual sense, walked around in the temple, then leaned down, his five fingers formed into claws, and he pierced into the floor tiles and lifted the floor tiles from the ground. The whole piece was pulled up.

Looking at the Insect Expelling Powder mixed with realgar, lead-mercury powder, etc. scattered under the floor tiles, Lu Zhi has already determined what is going on with Zhao Xu's strange disease.

"Officials please be relieved, your illness is not a serious problem, as long as you get away from it, you can recover."

"Lord Qing Zhi, you see Where is the illness of the official family?" Chen Mao asked.

Lu Zhi nodded: "It's poisoning."

"What?! Poisoning?!" Chen Mao instantly turned pale in fright.

Zhao Xu also looked suspicious: "Dao Master Qing Zhi, you said I was poisoned by someone?!"

Lu Zhi shook his head:" It doesn’t have to be intentional to murder the official... The official’s disease is heavy metal poisoning, probably lead and mercury, and the pathogen comes from the underground of the Imperial Palace, especially the official’s bedroom. One piece, the underground lead and mercury content can already affect the people in the palace."

After entering Zhao Xu's bedroom, Lu Zhi felt uncomfortable all over, at first he could not detect it. What was the reason? He didn't react until he saw Zhao Xu and carefully observed his symptoms. It turned out that it was because the heavy metals here exceeded the standard.

When Lu Zhi was still living in modern times, a classmate accidentally ingested mercury in the thermometer, which caused heavy metal poisoning. Lu Zhi has always remembered it very vividly, so Lu Zhi was able to According to Zhao Xu's symptoms, it was judged that he was poisoned by heavy metals.

"Heavy metal poisoning?" Zhao Xu and Chen Mao obviously can't understand this unheard term, but they are not stupid people, and their eyes are subconsciously turned to the powder in the pit. Above.

"Qing Zhi, do you mean... these Insect Expelling Powders that prevent the breeding of snakes, insects, mouse and ants are actually affected by humans?"

Insect Expelling Powder is poisonous, and both Chen Mao and Zhao Xu knew that, but what they didn't know was that even people would be affected by this thing.

"This is nature. If the content of heavy metals in the underground, that is, lead and mercury, is too high, the human body will also be affected. Over time, symptoms of poisoning may even appear. Eventually The internal organs were exhausted and died."

Hearing what Lu Zhi said, Zhao Xu didn't know what he had thought of, his face suddenly became savage, and his eyes released a fierce light of choosing people!

"so that's how it is! I said, why did those gentlemen suddenly care about snakes and rats in the Imperial Palace where I live, so that's how it is!!!"

Zhao Xu's words seem to have a meaning, Chen Mao also whispered in Lu Zhi's ear: "Half a year ago, Master Tai Fu suggested to the official in the court that it was the Imperial Palace. There are too many snakes, insects, mouse and ants among them. When he entered the palace, he saw a poisonous snake crawling over the beam..."

Lu Zhi instantly understood, but what was on the surface Did not show it.

This kind of monarch and court affairs has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't want to bother at all.

"Official house." Lu Zhi said, "Your body can no longer live in the Imperial Palace. It is better to move out of the Imperial Palace as soon as possible, and then take care of your body. While sending someone to clean up the lead and mercury in the Imperial Palace..."

After Zhao Xu took a few rough breaths, he finally calmed down.

"Many thanks to Dao Master Qing Zhi's reminder, I will move to Duanwang Mansion tonight."

Lu Zhi nodded: "If this is the case, Poor Daoist will feel at ease. ...Then Poor Daoist will retire first."

He can understand with his fingers that Zhao Xu must be a howling wind and torrential rain next, but he doesn't want to pay any attention to it. So it's better to leave quickly with excuses.

"Also... I am unwell, so I can't afford to send Dao Master Qing Zhi."

"The official is showing love, and Poor Daoist will just leave by himself."

Sure enough, Lu Zhi only walked out of the bedroom a few steps, and then faintly heard Zhao Xu's suppressed roar.

"Chen Mao! Let me investigate this matter immediately!"

Lu Zhi secretly shook the head, it seems that tomorrow’s Bianliang city, I’m afraid I’m going to die A lot of people have gone...

After leaving the Imperial Palace, Lu Zhi went directly to the school bookstore. After that, Lu Zhi did not go out again for two days.

Then, until noon on the 3rd day, Chen Mao came to the door and asked him to go to the Duanwang Mansion to treat Zhao Xu.

On the way, Lu Zhi curiously asked Chen Mao: "How is it? Mr. Taifu, have you solved it?"

Chen Mao nodded: "It's all solved. Yes, but none of the people who participated in this matter have fallen behind!"

"Seriously, you should really go to the morning court today to see what the face of the master Taifu is. Yes... the official ordered that there were a lot of snakes, insects, mouse and ants in the Taifu’s mansion, so the guards dig out all the insect-controlling medicines buried in the Imperial Palace and transferred them to Taifu's mansion has gone up..."

Lu Zhi raised his brows, this is really...this Zhao Xu is also bad and bad, he actually came up with this way to retaliate and go back. .

But this matter didn't have much to do with him. He also asked Genius about it, and after hearing it, he stopped paying attention.

The feet of the two were not slow, and it didn't take long before they arrived at the palace of Duanwang and met Zhao Xu.

Seeing Zhao Xu again, the complexion on his face is undoubtedly much better. After all, he is no longer in the environment where the heavy metal exceeds the standard all the time, and the symptoms of poisoning will naturally not continue to worsen.

After combing through the meridian in Zhao Xu with Pure Yang True Qi and Yiyang Finger, Zhao Xu bluntly said that he feels much better, and after drinking the medicine, he immediately fell asleep.

And Lu Zhi also lived in the Duanwang Mansion, mainly because Chen Maofei had to drag him to stay.
