Chapter 53 Red Kite Poison
Linghua Temple in the eastern suburbs is a royal temple that has stood for a hundred years.The ancient trees in the temple are towering, and the environment is quiet.

Linghua Temple only receives members of the royal family of Tianfeng Kingdom, and the incense in the temple is not strong.

Su Xi galloped all the way on the steed, and finally arrived at Linghua Temple before noon.She tied the horse to the hundred-year-old pagoda tree in front of the temple square, which had been weathered by the sun, the moon, vicissitudes of life, and the wind and rain, and then walked to the temple gate and knocked on the door.

"Why is Master coming to Linghua Temple?" an aunt in a gray Taoist robe opened the door and asked with clasped hands.

"His Royal Highness King Rui is worried about Mrs. Wangchen's health, so he sent me here to ask for a pulse."

"Please come with me."

The nun took Su Xi to the courtyard in the northwest corner.Before stepping into the courtyard door, intermittent coughing sounds came.

"Master, His Royal Highness King Rui sent someone to ask for your peace pulse."

"Come in." Master Wangchen's voice sounded too weak.

Su Xi pushed the door open and entered. In the simple and clean meditation room, Master Wangchen was leaning on the pillow.Her face was pale, and a plain gray Taoist robe could not hide her charming appearance.

"Miss, please sit down." Master Wang Chen looked up at Su Xi, her elegant voice resounded in the meditation room, "Yuan'er asked you to come and ask for my peace pulse, but I have a token for you."

Su Xi took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Mrs. Wang Chen, "This is a letter from His Royal Highness King Rui."

Master Wangchen took the letter and opened it, and the familiar handwriting came into view.After reading the letter, Master Wang Chen looked up at Su Xi, with a beautiful face and firm eyes, but he didn't know what his personality was?

"Miss Su is a lady, why would she want to study medicine?" Mrs. Wang Chen carefully observed Su Xi while she was asking.

"Healing diseases and saving lives is my dream since I was a child." Su Xi said nonsense.She was very puzzled in her heart, she didn't come here to take a pulse and see a doctor, so why did she feel like a mother-in-law looking at her daughter-in-law.

"Not bad. She has a benevolent heart since she was a child, so she should be a kind girl." Master Wangchen thought so in her heart, looking at Su Xi with satisfaction.

"In addition to treating illnesses and saving lives, Miss Su, have you ever studied piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and knitting?" Mrs. Wangchen continued to ask.

"Master, let me check your pulse first." Su Xi changed the subject.At this moment, she has confirmed her guess.It must be what Feng Yuan said in the letter, otherwise Mrs. Wangchen would not have questioned some inexplicable things.

Seeing that Su Xi didn't want to answer, although Mrs. Wangchen was a little displeased, she still stretched out her hand for Su Xi to take a pulse.

Seeing Master Wang Chen's slender and fair wrists, Su Xi sighed inwardly, even though she escaped into Buddhism, her skin is really well maintained.

Su Xi put three fingers on Mrs. Wangchen's wrist, and took the pulse carefully.As time passed, Su Xi's brows became tighter and tighter.

"Miss Su, what's wrong?" Master Wangchen asked too uneasy.

"Has Mrs. Shi been coughing up blood in the past few days?" Su Xi asked directly.

Master Wangchen nodded, "Miss Su, how many days do I have?"

"If the poison of the red kite is detoxified, it will not be a problem to live to seventy or eighty. If it cannot be detoxified, it will take at most one month to die from the poison." Su Xi frowned.

"I'm not sick, but poisoned. Are you sure you didn't make a mistake in the diagnosis?" Master Wangchen looked at Su Xi in disbelief, and gradually tightened his grip on her palm.

"I don't dare to guarantee my medical skills. As for the research on poison, I rank second in the entire Tianfeng Kingdom, and no one dares to recognize it as the first." Su Xi said confidently.

"Where do Shi Tai usually like to go, what's so special about the food?" Su Xi continued to ask.

"The diet is the same as that of the sister-in-law in the temple. As for the places I often go to, besides the temple, it is the Yingfeng Cliff in the back mountain." Teacher Wang Shitai replied truthfully after thinking about it for a moment.

"I want to go to the Yingshan Cliff in the back mountain to take a look." Su Xi said.

"You suspect that the poison in my body came from Yingfeng Cliff in the back mountain." Master Wangchen guessed too.

"I'm not sure, I have to go and see to know the result." Su Xi guessed this way because she knew that there were people arranged by Feng Yuan in the temple to protect Mrs. Wang Chen.It is not easy to do it inside the temple, so you can only do it outside the temple.

"I'm not healthy enough to get out of bed. I'll let someone take you to Yingfeng Cliff in the back mountain." Master Wang Chen said.

"No, it's too obvious for others to take it to do things. I have a detoxification pill here, which is very effective. If you trust me, take it, and the medicine will be rid of the poison in half an hour." Su Xi took out a detoxification pill from the space and handed it Go to Mrs. Wangchen.

Looking at the pitch-black detoxification pill in front of him, Master Wangchen hesitated for a few seconds, and finally took the detoxification pill and swallowed it.She didn't believe in Su Xi, but believed that the son she gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy should not plot against her.

Half an hour later, Master Wangchen who had taken the detoxification pill spat out a mouthful of poisonous blood, and his heavy body relaxed a lot.She looked at Su Xi with more and more satisfaction.

"It's rare that the weather is good today. Accompany me to the Windward Cliff in the Back Mountain for a walk to enjoy the breeze."

Master Wang Chen and Su Xi left the meditation room and went to Yingfeng Cliff in the back mountain.

In Yingfengya, the cold wind blows, rustling the leaves and bending the weeds.

"Did you find anything?" Mrs. Wang Chen asked eagerly as she stood on the boulder on Yingfeng Cliff, looking at Su Xi who was busy among the weeds.

Su Xi held a stick in his hand and kept turning the weeds.She walked to a bluegrass and stopped.

"Be careful, don't hurt this bluegrass." Master Wangchen who came over reminded.This orchid is her favorite. Every spring, light blue orchids will bloom, exuding a pleasant fragrance.Every spring, she picks some orchids and returns them to the temple to dry and soak in water for drinking.

"Do you know this orchid grass?" Su Xi raised his eyebrows.

Master Wangchen shook his head too, "I don't know what kind of orchid this plant is, I really like the orchids it blooms, every March when it blooms, I will pick some orchids and go back to dry and soak in water for drinking."

"Don't pick it in the future. If you want to drink scented tea, I'll go back and make some. King Rui will send someone to bring it to you." Su Xi said lightly.

"Is this bluegrass poisonous?" Did the poison in her body come from drinking the water soaked in dried orchids?

"The bluegrass is not poisonous, the poisonous thing is the red kite growing around the bluegrass." Su Xi pointed to the inconspicuous weeds with tapered leaves next to the bluegrass.

"Is this the red kite that poisoned me?" Master Wangchen frowned slightly, with deep thought flashing across his eyes.

"The poison of the red kite is not fatal. Regular exposure will make people weak and cause hemoptysis due to insufficient lung energy. If things go on like this, the poisoned person will eventually die." Su Xi looked serious, "Although the teacher has the symptoms of coughing up blood Fortunately, the time of exposure to red kite grass is not long, at most two years. If the exposure time exceeds five years, the gods will be hard to save."
