Chapter 2884: The first step in forcing Cao Ren to surrender, trapping him in the isolated city and collapsing his ambitions

The problem Kong Xuan is facing now is actually far more complicated than Zhang Zhongjing said.

Li Cunxiao was able to withstand Lu Yue's poison because he was on guard from the beginning to the end, and he could suppress it by using his skills, or even refine the five poison seals.

Kong Xuan was in a hurry to escape and failed to suppress the toxin in time, causing the toxin to invade his internal organs. This situation was much more serious than Li Cunxiao.

If this were the case, then it would not be a big problem for Kong Xuan. After all, if it is poisonous, then just clean it up.

It was not difficult for Kong Xuan, a great master, to use Qigong to remove toxins from his internal organs. What was difficult was that due to his indulgence, the toxins on his back shoulders had penetrated deep into the bone marrow, becoming the source of the toxins in Kong Xuan's body.

If Kong Xuan wants to completely cleanse the toxins, he must first eliminate the source of the toxins, but the toxins on his back shoulders have already been stained on the bones, and they can no longer be removed by relying on his own skills and drug treatment.

When Zhang Zhongjing said that bone scraping was needed to cure the disease, Kong Xuandu didn't react at all, but Yun Xiao, Fu Youde and others on the side were shocked.

Bone scraping, take a knife and scrape your bones. Just thinking about it makes your scalp numb.

Fu Youde even said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, Ma Bo is here, otherwise this would be so painful."

The reason why Kong Xuan was not afraid was because of Ma Fei San. Although he didn't care about the physical pain, he didn't want to go through the bone-scratching pain in vain. After using Hua Tuo's Ma Fei San, his body would fall into paralysis. , automatically shields the pain, and he will not feel any pain at that time, so naturally he will not be afraid.

But what Kong Xuan didn't expect was that after listening to Fu Youde's words, Zhang Zhongjing said: "Kong Xuan's surgery cannot be performed with anesthesia powder. The poison he was poisoned contains ingredients of Qixing Begonia. Once anesthesia powder is used, the toxin will be aggravated." "

Hearing this, Kong Xuan was completely dumbfounded, and Fu Youde even stuttered: "Miracle doctor, are you aware that General Kong Xuan can't take medicine and can only bear the pain of scraping his bones?"

"Yes."

"What's the difference between this and Lingchi..."

Before Fu Youde finished speaking, he saw Kong Xuanzang looking at him with a cold face, and was immediately too frightened to say anything.

Kong Xuan was very irritable now. He didn't know what it meant to scrape the bones without medicine, but in order to recover quickly, he could only endure it, and comforted himself in his heart that it was nothing, and it would be over if he endured it, but this guy Fu Youde reminded him repeatedly He was in so much pain that he even said such words to Ling Chi. Didn't he mean to scare himself?

"It's just scraping the bone, no need to anesthetize it. Doctor Zhang, I'm ready and can perform the operation at any time."

Kong Xuan pretended to be indifferent and said, but the tight muscles all over his body still exposed his inner nervousness. However, outsiders obviously did not know this, and they all admired him for being so calm and calm in the face of bone scraping.

Naturally, Zhang Zhongjing could tell at a glance that Kong Xuan was holding on, but he did not expose it and said, "Okay, we'll do it in half an hour." and went to prepare the props needed for the operation.

Half an hour later, Kong Xuan's bone curettage surgery started as scheduled.

The founder of surgery is naturally Hua Tuo. No one in the world was better at performing surgery than Hua Tuo. He could even reattach an arm to Bu Jingyun who had a broken arm, and exchange the limbs of any person who matched them.

Although Hua Tuo is the founder, it does not mean that he is the only one who knows it. As the current leader of the medical family, Zhang Zhongjing, although his surgical skills are inferior to Hua Tuo, he is definitely among the top three in the world.

Zhang Zhongjing used a sharp and thin dagger as a scalpel. He first cut off the rotten flesh from the wound on Kong Xuan's back, and then dug deep into the shoulder blade. He wiped the blood while digging, and at the same time, he also wanted to prevent the poisonous blood from corroding the flesh.

Zhang Zhongjing was preoccupied with three things, and the entire operation process went very slowly. Kong Xuan's lips turned white, his veins popped out, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat. However, for the sake of face, he still suppressed his silence.

An hour after the operation, Zhang Zhongjing finally dug out the source of the poison on Kong Xuan's posterior shoulder blade without damaging Kong Xuan's muscles and bones, and exposed the white bones to the air. However, Kong Xuan's shoulder blade had been stained black at this time. .

"coming soon."

After Zhang Zhongjing reminded Kong Xuan, he handed Kong Xuan a piece of wood and told him to bite it to relieve the pain.

Kong Xuan was in so much pain that he didn't want to speak, but for the sake of face, he still pretended to be calm and calm. He originally wanted to take the wood, but when he thought that he had endured this far, biting the wood now did not mean that he was Are you holding on, so you decisively choose to refuse.

Seeing Kong Xuan's refusal, Zhang Zhongjing did not force himself and continued to operate on him.

"Yimu Changqing Gong."

As Zhang Zhongjing drank, the green inner energy condensed on his body, and then the scalpel in his hand also glowed green, and then slowly scraped on Kong Xuan's shoulder blade.

"hiss……"

Kong Xuan's endurance was as strong as that of Kong Xuan. Faced with the pain that was as painful as Ling Chi's, he couldn't help but gasp. He almost couldn't maintain his image, but his strong self-esteem still allowed him to resist, and in He cursed in his heart: "Shen Gongbao, just wait for me."

Shen Gongbao's poisonous arrow caused Kong Xuan to suffer so much. After he recovered from his injury, he would definitely find an opportunity to take revenge.

The process of scraping the bones was so painful. The heart-wrenching pain could not be described in words. Kong Xuan was so painful that he almost felt like he was about to leave his body. He regretted not taking the piece of wood now, but It's too late to say anything now. In order to relieve the pain, Kong Xuan thought of a way to distract himself, but it was too painful. The more he tried to distract himself, the more concentrated he became, so he simply calmed down and concentrated on feeling Zhang Zhongjing Yimu Changqing. The internal strength distribution characteristics of gong, and Zhang Zhongjing’s route of transporting gong.

Hua Tuo's "Qing Sang Jing" was created by himself, and part of it came from Yimu Changqing Gong, so Yimu Changqing Kung Fu is one of the inherited exercises among doctors.

Just by looking at the name, you can tell that the Yimu Evergreen Kung Fu is a wood-type technique, and Kong Xuan himself also practiced wood-type techniques, so under the close-range perception, he really discovered a lot of secrets.

"It's a pity that there are no skills and formulas, otherwise my wood skills will be further advanced, but this opportunity is very rare."

Kong Xuan thought greedily in his heart, even he didn't realize that when he stole the Yimu Evergreen Kung Fu, the pain he felt was more than ten times weaker than before.

Zhang Zhongjing, who was concentrating on the operation, probably would not have thought that he had good intentions to detoxify Kong Xuan, but while Kong Xuan was suffering from the pain of scraping his bones, he still had the leisure to steal from him. This piece of shit is unbelievable.

Half an hour later, Zhang Zhongjing used a scalpel to carefully scrape off all the toxins on the surface of Kong Xuan's shoulder blade. Then he began the final step of the operation, sucking out the toxins from the bone marrow.

When this step is reached, what matters is not the level of surgery, but Zhang Zhongjing's skill. After all, no matter how high his level of surgery is, he will not be able to insert the scalpel into Kong Xuan's bone marrow.

"This is the last step, just bear with it a little longer."

After speaking, Zhang Zhongjing put his index and middle fingers together and whispered: "Mu Ling Finger." Then he pointed on Kong Xuan's bones.

As the air flow around Zhang Zhongjing's body surged, the green internal force was transferred into Kong Xuan's body through his right hand. Then only the toxins in Kong Xuan's bone marrow were sucked into the body bit by bit by Zhang Zhongjing, and then from the little finger of his left hand. Drain and drip into the basin little by little.

An hour later, the toxins in Kong Xuan's bone marrow were finally completely removed by Zhang Zhongjing, and the basin was already completely black.

After the three-hour operation, Zhang Zhongjing acted like a normal person. He simply adjusted his breathing and then told Kong Xuan how to clear away the remaining toxins. However, Kong Xuan looked like he was still unfinished. After all, after the operation, he would not be able to steal the lesson. .

"The toxins in the bone marrow have been basically eliminated. Now the remaining toxins in your body no longer pose a threat to you. You only need to take medicine for treatment, and the remaining toxins can be completely eliminated within half a year. However, bone scraping will cause a greater trauma to you. Even if the remaining toxins are It is recommended that you wait for more than half a year to fully recover.”

Hearing Zhang Zhongjing's words, Kong Xuan was naturally overjoyed. After all, such a serious injury could be recovered in just one year, which was already very fast.

Moreover, during the year of recuperation, Kong Xuan is not unable to do anything. He can still practice and use this year to understand the techniques, and his strength will be further enhanced by then.

[Ding Dong, Kong Xuan has achieved the achievement 'Scraping Bone to Treat Poison', reward...]

After Kong Xuan was treated by Zhang Zhongjing, he was basically fine. He only needed to recuperate from his injuries. At this time, Bai Qi launched his final clarion call to Cao Ren.

Dingtao was captured by the Qin army. The retreat of Chen Liu's 100,000 Cao army was cut off, and it was completely turned into a lone army. The Qin army could capture it at any time if it wanted, but in order to minimize casualties, Ying Hao decided to force the surrender. Cao Ren's 100,000 Cao army, so Bai Qi, Zhang Liao, and Zhao Yun led the army to encroach on the cities around Chenliu.

In fact, the Qin army did not need to attack these cities. As long as Cao Ren's 100,000 Cao troops were eliminated, these cities could be settled with just an edict.

However, in order to create pressure on the Cao army led by Cao Ren on a psychological level, Bai Qi chose to attack the cities one by one, thus reducing Chen Liu's Cao army to a lone army and eventually gradually disintegrating its will to fight.

Facing the Qin army's attacks in all directions, his own space for movement was compressed step by step. Cao Ren knew clearly that Bai Qi was cutting his flesh with a blunt knife, but he had no choice, because there was no point in going out to rescue the city, and he would die even more. quick.

Under the attack of more than 200,000 troops from Bai Qi, Zhang Liao, and Zhao Yun, Yongqiu, Weishi, Fugou, Yuxian, Xiangyi, Jiwu, Kaocheng, Waihuang, Jiyang, Donghun, Xiaohuang, and Jun The sixteen counties of Yi, Fengqiu, Pingqiu, Changyuan and Suanzao were all defeated by the Qin army after only holding on for three days.

So far, among the seventeen counties of Chenliu County, only Chenliu, the seat of government, was still in the hands of Cao's army. Among the four counties in the west of Yanzhou, Chenliu was the only one left. Cao Ren's 100,000 Cao army was completely trapped in the harsh Chenliu city.

Among the sixteen counties under Chen Liu's control, ten took the initiative to open their cities and surrender, without much resistance at all.

Among them, the three cities of Yongqiu, Suanzao and Fengqiu were also important grain collection areas for Cao's army. The grain and grass seized in these three cities alone amounted to millions of dan, which could barely solve the Qin army's problem of insufficient grain and grass supply.

As for the six-county garrison who stubbornly resisted, they could not hold out for long under the attack of Bai Qi, Zhang Liao, and Zhao Yun. After the city was broken, they would naturally end up dead, thus deterring other people who opposed Da Qin.

After taking the sixteen counties of Chenliu, the armies of Bai Qi, Zhang Liao, and Zhao Yun also completed their rendezvous under Chenliu City. After discussion, the three decided to pay tribute first and then attack, so they sent a county magistrate who had just surrendered as an envoy to enter Chenliu to attack the defenders in the city. To persuade to surrender.

The price Bai Qi offered was naturally not low, but he knew that Cao Ren would definitely not agree, so the purpose of his move was just to test and see if Cao Ren's control over Cao Jun was strong enough.

Bai Qi was already prepared for the envoy to be beheaded, and the envoy was also mentally prepared to die, but he did not expect that the envoy came back alive.

Bai Qi was also surprised by this, so he asked, "Tell me, what happened after you entered the city?"

"Yes, Grand Governor, after his subordinates entered the city and before they expressed their intention to come, Cao Ren wanted to kill his subordinates to sacrifice the flag to show his true intentions. However, he was opposed by his generals, so Cao Ren did not kill his subordinates."

"Ha ha……"

A smile appeared on Bai Qi's lips. As expected, Cao Ren's army was beginning to become unstable as he thought. It seemed that this plan to force Cao Ren to surrender would go more smoothly than expected.
