Chapter 316 314 Flying Gu Worms

Zhao Kui gave the visitor a hard look, "When will it be Vice General Song's turn to take care of my affairs?"

But Zhao Kui finally let the boy go after seeing Song Chunlin's unfriendly eyes and the group of generals following him.

He can't really ignore everything and drag a young man to ruin in front of so many generals.

Jiang Zhirou was lifted up, and she bowed her hands to Song Chunlin and the others, "Thank you for speaking out!"

Song Chunlin cupped his hands in return, "Your Majesty Jiang, you don't need to say thank you. There is such a person in the army, and we have a bright face."

"Grandma, make a good army, and let the father and son lead them into bandits." A general who was five big and three rough next to him cursed in a rough voice.

Hearing this, Zhao Kui, who hadn't gone far, looked back to this side with vicious eyes, and finally left with aggravated footsteps.

An Chuxia has brought people with him, and has dug many traps on the only way the Lingnan Army must go back.

On the peaks on both sides, there are piles of chopped wood and stones, ready to roll down to deal with the reinforcements returning to Lingnan.

Of course, the tripping rope is also essential, which is the best weapon against cavalry.

An Chuxia also ordered the caravan to bring in a lot of earth jars, and made some earth bombs that are now used to blow up prey in remote mountainous areas, commonly known as Menlei.

Since it can hunt and kill animals, of course it can also kill people.

Although the lethality is not very great, the scene of the explosion is also very bluffing.

Then arrange the crossbowman in the right position, so that it is not impossible to win more with less.

As time passed, during this period, more and more people fled to Zhushan County and other places, dragging their families and carrying their own small amount of food.

An Chuxia got the news and asked someone to bring a few people over to inquire about the situation. It turned out that it was the Lingnan Army who was trapped outside Nanning City.

They sent people everywhere to rob the surrounding villages outside Nanning City, not only robbing food, livestock, and poultry, but also as supplies for their army, and they would not let go of beautiful women.

The people in Nanning City were besieged by them for more than a month. They had no food to eat, and they were starving.

The people outside the city were also turned upside down by them, they robbed food, murdered people, raped women, and committed all sorts of crimes.

"Is the situation in Nanning City already this tense?" Leng Shanshan who was standing aside said with a frown.

A villager who fled to Zhushan County scratched at the bottom, and saw a few red and swollen bumps on the exposed skin. After Mu Tan saw it, his originally clear eyes were attracted.

Walking over to check, the middle-aged man took a timid step back, "You... what are you going to do?"

An Chuxia also saw that the middle-aged man's exposed back of his hands and neck were covered with sporadic red spots, which might be itching, but when he scratched them, they turned into swollen red bumps.

Turning his head to look at the few people who were brought along with him, they also had such red and swollen bumps on their exposed skin, and some of them looked like pustules had formed.

"Brother Mu, is there anything unusual about these red spots on their bodies?"

Mu Tan stood there and looked at a person carefully. The pustules on the neck had spread to the surrounding skin.

There was a flash of understanding in the cold eyes.

Looking up at An Chuxia, "You still remember that some time ago, it was reported from the border defense city that someone in the Lingnan army released a kind of moth-like Gu worm.

People who are bitten by this kind of insects will have red spots at first, and they will turn into red and swollen bumps when they are scratched. After forming pustules, they will slowly fester outwards, causing pus to flow all over the body.

In the end, those soldiers lost their combat effectiveness and looked like they were neither dead nor alive. "

"It's...so scary, you...you must be talking nonsense," several villagers said in trembling and fearful voices, unwilling to believe it.

One of the villagers murmured with a pale face, "But the pustules on our bodies were indeed caused by the bites of moths that suddenly appeared in the past few days."

"what--"

"I don't want to fester all over my body and look like I'm neither dead nor alive." The only young woman shouted in horror.

Suddenly knelt down, and prayed to An Chuxia and Mu Tan: "You actually saw that it was bitten by a flying insect, there must be a way to treat it, please help me!"

Several other villagers who were brought in for questioning also knelt down and begged, "I beg you to save us."

An Chuxia looked at Mu Tan. Since he arrived in Immortal Medicine Valley, he has also studied for a long time with Wen Qingyi, who has a lot of research on Gu art.

Wen Qingyi was not stingy even with the rare Gu art books collected by Immortal Medicine Valley, and lent them to Mu Tan to study and study. I don't know how he is studying now, whether he can cure this insect poison.

Mu Tan looked relaxed, and smiled lightly at An Chuxia, "If the poison is too advanced, with my current level, I may not be able to detoxify it.

However, this kind of flying insect cultivated on a large scale took a relatively short period of time to cultivate it, and its toxicity is not very deep.

It belongs to the most common type of Gu in Lingnan Gu art. As long as people who have studied Gu poison, most of them can cure this poison. "

He Mu Tan looked at the few villagers who were trembling in fear, "It's not difficult to cure the poison of this Gu insect.

If the symptoms are mild, drink the medicine for a few days, and if the pustules fester, apply some special detoxification ointment on the skin, and it will recover after a period of time. "

"Really, that's great!" Just now, they were terrified when they heard that their bodies were festering and they were neither dead nor alive.

After those people were taken away for treatment, An Chuxia frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

"...What's wrong?" Mu Tan, who finished writing the prescription and ordered his servants to boil the medicine, looked up to see An Chuxia's sad expression, and walked over to ask.

An Chuxia rubbed her fingers, and said in a low tone: "The Gu master in the Lingnan army, who followed the army, released these Gu insects, obviously not targeting the people outside the city.

It is very likely that they have been guarding outside the city for a long time, and they have lost their patience. They want to use such means to make Nanning city more and more chaotic.

Hunger combined with the festering caused by the bite of this bug may break the mind of many people.

At that time, as long as they say there is an antidote, they can still eat after opening the city gate~"

Needless to say, what happened after that can be imagined by everyone.

"Nanning City is in danger!" An Chuxia said with a sigh.

When the hall fell into silence, a servant came to report, "Nv Jun, there are people outside who claim to be the family members of the prefect of Nanning, and come to ask to see Nu Jun."

"Zhirou's family members!" An Chuxia looked at the servants and ordered, "Bring them in."

Shen Mingxuan took a pair of six or seven-year-old son and daughter and Xi Wen who was holding his son, and several guards were ordered by Zuo Wang to take them to the next room to rest.

An Chuxia saw two handsome men walking in. Among them, Xi Wen came here with Jiang Zhirou last time, and knew that he was Jiang Zhirou's servant.

Seeing next to him a tired-looking, elegant man in a satin blue robe, holding two children, a boy and a girl, An Chuxia guessed that he was Jiang Zhirou's rightful lord.

That concubine of the lonely Chenghou Mansion was forcibly given to Shen Mingxuan, Jiang Zhirou's rightful lord.
