favorite queen

Chapter 55

"Ouch—" The pain on the head brought the old man back to his senses. He raised his hand and rubbed the painful spot on his head. Just as he was about to bite the beggar's drumstick, he was teased by the girl, and his mouth But the chicken grew wings and flew, raised its head, glared fiercely at Xiao Wenqi, who was acting mischievously, with black eyes, and blamed him again and again: "You girl, you are getting more and more outrageous, even the master dares to tease you, and you made the master The chicken also flew." Although the girl teased her not only once or twice.
"Who told you not to answer my question but to daydream here?"
Xiao Wenqi was speechless. She wanted to eat all day long, and she was not afraid of being overwhelmed. Didn't she just cook a few meals for her? Speaking of which, it was also for her own stomach. Apart from porridge, my wife drank white flour steamed buns every day. I don't want to treat myself badly, and when my wife thinks of the dishes she cooks, sometimes she drools disgustingly. She is an old woman in her tens of years, and she is still like a child.
"Isn't there three days? It's only been a day, why are you in a hurry?" The white-haired old man looked disapproving, and his voice became lower and lower.
Another day will not kill anyone, and it will not delay anything. After three days, why did you come to urge me in just one day? Really, I wanted to find a reason for the girl to accompany her, an old woman, but this girl was so anxious to ask for it. The antidote, alas, it looks like her chicken is flying again.
Black lines, black lines all over her forehead, this, this damn old woman can really play with her, she can prepare the antidote very quickly, but she has to wait for three days.After finishing her work in Ziling Palace, she rushed over to see how the old woman was preparing the antidote. Unexpectedly, this dead old woman even made her play Tai Chi. It seemed that she had to use her trump card.
Xiao Wenqi suppressed the slight anger, and a beautiful and moving smile bloomed on her handsome face, like a hundred flowers blooming, like a spring breeze blowing on her face, then she smiled and said to the old man: "Whenever you can prepare the antidote, I will give it to you as soon as possible." Make it delicious." An imperceptible trace of cruelty flashed across the corner of his eyes, to see if you haven't taken the bait yet.
"I——I suddenly thought of how to prepare the antidote." After finishing speaking, the white-haired old man dropped the white flour steamed bun in his hand, like the wind, a gust of wind passed by, and instantly floated out of the cabin.
Seeing the old man leaving the house like a rocket, Xiao Wenqi showed a smug smile on her face, and followed her out of the house to prepare dinner.
After the baptism of the heavy rain the night before, the weather in these two days was infinitely beautiful. The next night, the sun was shining brightly, the mountains were surrounded by lush greenery, and the mountains were green and green. Dyeing, but still clear and pure up close.In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled the dense mountain forest, and the golden light shone all over the mountain, just like a place where gods practiced Taoism.
"Are you sure it's [-]% the antidote?" Xiao Wenqi asked suspiciously as she took the small white porcelain bottle handed to her by the white-haired old man.
Such a small bottle, and taking it three times, is it too little? This bottle is too small, just a little bigger than a thumb, which is unbelievable.
"You girl, don't you even believe Master?" Anyway, she was also hailed as the double saint of medicine and poison in the world. Doubt her ability.
Xiao Wenqi's suspicion made the old man feel a little uncomfortable, and looked at her slightly reproachfully.
"How could it be? I'm just talking casually," she said with a smile when she saw the old man's unhappy expression.
What if the old woman is unhappy and asks for the antidote?Then she was not in vain.
For safety's sake, she quickly put the small porcelain bottle in her arms.
She didn't doubt the ability of the old woman, but she felt that it was a very helpless poison for others, but it was a trivial matter in her hands. It doesn't take it seriously, I don't know if the world is too weak, or the old woman is too strong?I have to secretly admire the old woman in my heart. She really deserves to be hailed as the "sage of medicine and poison" by the people of the rivers and lakes.
"Girl, do you know where the plants in this little pot come from? And what's their name?" The old man looked majestic at this time, and the usual playfulness was gone from his dark eyes, and he said seriously.
"I've heard of it, but not many. I only know it's called 'Flash in the Pan'. There is no such poison in the Fengying Dynasty. I don't know where it came from." Looking at the serious expression of the old man, Xiao Wenqi replied truthfully. .These were all she had accidentally read in a medical book in the Wangfu study.
"Well, it comes from the Daling country in the north." The white-haired old man glanced at the plants on the table, turned around slightly, put his hands behind his back, as if thinking of the past, his black eyes looked out of the window from afar , the summer breeze came slowly, lifted the old man's snow-white hair and fluttered backwards, and then said slowly and calmly: "It also has a name of 'Xue Mei', it is also a precious plant in Daling Country, Only the royal family can have such a noble treasure."
'Blood Charm', blood red, enchanting and charming, it is a rare and rare plant in a hundred years, alas, how could someone use such a precious treasure to harm others?Pity.
"But why can it emit poisonous gas when it is mixed with the medicine in the soil?" Frowning, Xiao Wenqi asked in bewilderment.
"This soil is still the original black soil, but it is mixed with a drug called 'Core-taking'. The color of this drug is black, and the smell has a pleasant earth-like fragrance. It is difficult for people to detect its toxicity when used alone. A small amount Smoking a small amount of it will not harm the body, if a large amount of it is taken in the body for a long time, it will cause heart failure to death."
The white-haired old man turned around, glanced at Xiao Wenqi, then fixed his eyes on the pot of Xuemei on the table, and said: "If 'Xuemei' takes this medicine, it will bloom overnight and release a large amount of blood. Once the poisonous gas in the "Take Heart" is released, the bright red and enchanting blood flower will die and wither, just like a flash in the pan. Then, the heartbeat of the person poisoned by this poisonous gas will speed up, and the heart will be painful and uncomfortable like a burning fire. The strangest thing is that the veins of poisoned people are the same as those of normal people, ordinary doctors can't find any signs of poisoning at all, if they can't find the antidote within three days, the person will die of heartache."
