Dawn of the Empire

Chapter 441 83 Temperance is not Huanwen-2

Although the assassin was about to kill, his eyes seemed to be glowing with sarcasm, as if he was watching others go to hell with him.Just at this moment, an exclamation came from behind the crowd: "He, his dagger is poisonous!"

Everyone was startled, they turned their heads and looked back, only to see a middle-aged man with a pale complexion, his right hand was covering a wound on his left arm, obviously stabbed by the assassin indiscriminately just now, the dagger The poisonous sex was very violent, after a while, the man was already sweating profusely, bowed his waist and tried to vomit.A person next to him hurriedly supported him, raised his head and shouted: "Is there any 'cure'? Help my elder brother!" When all the gangsters rushed forward, due to the dense crowd, several people were injured by the dagger in the hands of the assassin. Check the injury, all pale in panic.It didn't take long for several of the injured to show symptoms of poisoning. They were all pale and sweating profusely.The other heroes in the southeast also changed their colors. People in the Jianghu used all sorts of strange poisons, and they couldn't do anything for a while. Some people secretly rejoiced that they didn't rush forward just now.More people turned their attention to Zhao Xingde who was standing in the middle of the crowd, he was the first person to be stabbed by the poisonous dagger.

"General Zhao!" Shi Jingkui's face changed drastically. He had never seen such severe symptoms of poisoning.Du Chuijiao hurriedly cut open the robe on Zhao Xingde's back, only to see some redness and swelling around the wound.Shi Jingkui pressed his hand on his wound, squeezed out blood continuously, and kept asking in a low voice, "Do you feel it? How does it feel?"

"Fortunately," Zhao Xingde looked at the assassin's body and said in a low voice, "Search him!"

"Quick!" Lu Mingyu hurried over after hearing the news, "Quickly search the assassin, there may be an antidote, and also search his residence." He walked in front of Zhao Xingde, his expression pale ' asked anxiously, "Mr. Zhao?"

"I'm fine." Zhao Xingde nodded, watching the soldiers searching for the assassin.The assassin seemed to have known that he would die, the things he carried on his body were extremely simple, except for a few scattered silver coins, there were no pills like antidote.Du Chuijiao searched the assassin twice more, even took off his shoes, but still found nothing.

At this time, the poisonous attacks of several injured people in the rivers and lakes became more severe. Some of them were limp and weak, some held their necks with their hands, and some had their stomachs twisted like knives.Lu Mingyu's face was cloudy and uncertain, he looked at those poisoned Jianghu people for a while, and looked at Zhao Xingde for a while, as if he was about to become like that soon.Du Chuijiao and others searched for the assassin, stood up in disappointment, and looked at Zhao Xingde worriedly.But Zhao Xingde himself only felt a little itchy wound, as if he had been bitten by an ordinary poisonous insect.

He looked not far away, several wounded were already lying on the ground, and everyone was surrounded by relatives and friends.The friends of the wounded were like headless chickens, some were panicked, some were full of grief and indignation, and some asked people around if they had any good "medicine" for interpretation. "These gangsters have never met each other before, and they were all injured because of Zhao." Zhao Xingde's eyes were covered with a haze, and he didn't have a poisoned reaction, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

At this time, Liu Heng stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Brother Lu, the assassin's house did not find the 'drug', but a sign crossing the mountain appeared, which almost bit our brother." Lu Mingyu's eyes Yi Lin shouted: "How treacherous!" He only thought that the assassin had sinister intentions and calculated that someone would find the antidote from him and his house, so he purposely ambushed such a poisonous snake and pulled it out after death. People pay for death.After hearing this, the leaders of the water village standing beside him shook their heads and cursed at the assassin, wishing they could draw out their knives and chop his body into pieces.

"Crossing the mountain mark?" Zhao Xingde was taken aback for a moment, he seemed to have realized something, some thoughts flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help thinking about it.The so-called "Guoshan sign" in the south means that it moves like lightning when it bites, making it hard to guard against, but the "flat-necked snake" in the western regions means that its neck is flat. The two names actually refer to snakes. It's the same snake. "Could it be that," Zhao Xingde felt the tingling sensation behind his back, recalling how he felt after being injured by a poisonous crossbow when he exterminated the Hassan believers in Kang, "could it be that the assassin's dagger was also dipped in the poison of the flat-necked snake? 'Liquid'?" Zhao Xingde thought to himself.When he was in Liaodong, in order to deal with the Liao army, he also ordered his artisans to try to use various poisons to make poisonous arrows.It's a pity that most of the poisons are not strong enough to reach the point of sealing the throat with blood.And a small number of extremely poisonous substances, such as tetrodotoxin, venomous snake toxin, after the venom is taken out, even if it is carefully preserved, it will soon become invalid.Therefore, whether it is the Hassan cultist or the assassin, they can only bring the poisonous snake with them so that they can get fresh venom for use at any time.

"Brother, brother, wake up!" A mournful cry came from the ear, and several wounded had passed out.Zhao Xingde's face darkened, remembering that he died in Chunyushang. "There is almost no 'drug' to cure the venom of the flat-necked snake. If so, it is better to treat a dead horse as a living horse." Zhao Xingde knew that after being bitten by a poisonous snake, the most effective way is to inject anti-venom in time, he sinks After groaning for a while, his face turned resolute, and he said to Lu Mingyu: "Take a few silver bowls, and find a silver needle for vaccination, prepare a clean room, set up the stove, and immediately use clean copper Bring a large pot of water to boil."

"Ah?" Lu Mingyu was taken aback. "It's too late to explain," Zhao Xingde's face remained normal, but he added: "It's important to save people, hurry up!" Lu Mingyu saw that he was not talking nonsense, so he hurriedly said to Liu Heng and the others: "I heard Mr. Zhao's words. Hurry up? Hurry up! Hurry up!" Liu Heng, Xia Mao'er and others rushed to buy these things.Lu Mingyu looked at Zhao Xingde nervously again, but saw that he was frowning deeply, as if he was worried about something.

The vaccination syringe that Zhao Xingde mentioned was passed down by Xia Guo more than a hundred years ago.The syringes are mostly made of sterling silver, and the pus of the acne is taken out from the person who has had smallpox but not serious, diluted with steam water, and injected into the body of the person who does not have smallpox with the syringe, which can prevent smallpox.This method of treating acne is a great benefit to the world, so wherever there are densely populated places, there are needles.

"Carry the wounded to the clean room first." Zhao Xingde said in a low voice, "I have a way, maybe it can be saved, maybe it can't."

"Yes." Lu Mingyu was overjoyed, remembering the legend of Zhao Xingzhi's ability in the world, he immediately ordered, "Hurry up, take them to the clean room, Mr. Zhao will use magic to save them!" At this time, several injured people fainted In the past, he was either talking nonsense, and many discerning people saw that this was a sign that there was no cure and he was about to die.After hearing Lu Mingyu's words, he couldn't help but be skeptical.And the relatives and friends of those injured seemed to grasp at straws.

Several people rushed over and were waiting to kowtow to thank each other, but Zhao Xingde said first: "I'm not sure about this method, but the situation forced me to try it, maybe it's a bit dangerous. If everyone If relatives and friends who don’t want to take risks, Zhao will not force them.” He sighed and said, “The poison of this snake is so strong that there is no time to delay. Is it okay or not? We must make a quick decision!” Those injured His relatives and friends suddenly became puzzled again, looking at Zhao Xingde's expression, he didn't seem to be joking.After all, he is a person who has been on the run all the year round, 'licking' blood at the edge of a knife. Thinking of a narrow escape, it is better than ten deaths.Most people thought, "What kind of person is Mr. Zhao? How could he make fun of his reputation? If he said he could be saved, then there is still some hope." So, after a moment of hesitation, these relatives and friends agreed to save the injured. Moved into the clean room, and Zhao Xingde performed spells to save people.

Because the space in the clean room is narrow, no one else is allowed to enter.The people who heard the news soon numbered over a thousand, and they all gathered outside the clean room, whispering to each other in a low voice, waiting for the result of Zhao Xingde's operation to save people. "Does Mr. Zhao really have a solution?" Someone asked doubtfully. "Maybe, if Mr. Zhao doesn't have thaumaturgy, how can he be a former military adviser of the Holy Cult?" "Isn't he able to summon even Liu Ding Liujia? The little snake poison can be easily captured." Everyone praised and prayed in their mouths, their hearts and faces , but are full of doubts.Guoshanbiao is the most poisonous snake, and there is no medicine to save those in it.These Jianghu men who have been in the mountains and forests of Shuize all year round are very clear.Deng Yuanjue stood in the crowd with a sullen face, but he was extremely puzzled.In order to attract the congregation, the people of the Ming Cult deliberately practiced medical skills and used herbal medicine water as talisman water to give believers. He was very familiar with it.Just looking at Zhao Xingde's methods, it is not the case.Even if Master Fang is reborn, there is no cure for the snake venom that crossed the mountain.

"It's a miracle to be able to survive the poison, but it can still save people?" Deng Yuanjue wondered, "What kind of 'medicine' is sold in the gourd?" He looked towards the clean room, and saw that the door was tightly closed. Closed, Xia Mao'er, Liu Zheng and several others guarded the door with their knives.There is no movement and movement inside, revealing an indescribable mystery.

In the clean room, Zhao Xingde stared at the wounded with a solemn face.After this delay, almost all of these people lost consciousness, some had flushed cheeks, some were trembling, and some were talking nonsense.Except for each injured person who had a relative or friend by his side, Lu Mingyu, Liu Heng, Du Chuijiao and others stood beside Zhao Xingde, all with worried expressions on their faces, not knowing how he was going to perform the technique.

The copper pot is already boiling the silver syringe and the silver bowl, and steam is constantly rising from the "cuckoo".

"Okay," Zhao Xingde seemed to have made up his mind, rolled up the sleeve of his right hand, and said to Du Chuijiao, "Give me the syringe." Du Chuijiao didn't dare to neglect, and immediately took out the silver syringe, let it cool down a bit, Hand it over to Zhao Xingde, while he himself retreats to the side.Everyone in the room looked at Zhao Xingde with their eyes wide open, and saw that without the slightest hesitation, he used a syringe to puncture the protruding veins on his arm, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he said to Du Chuanjiao: "Hold me, give it a shot." Blood came out of the syringe."

"Mr. Zhao!" Lu Mingyu and others exclaimed, Du Chuijiao was stunned on the spot, Zhao Xingde's face darkened, and he shouted: "Blow the horn!" He trembled all over, not daring to disobey his order, and took a step forward, After calming down, he held the syringe with one hand, and slowly pulled the silver rod at the back end of the syringe to the end with the other hand.
