Fisherman's Song Dynasty

Su San wondered: "I also know something about the situation that day. The golden dog didn't attack, how could Lu Ying be burned like this?"

Lu Qing paused, gradually clenched his fists, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Lu escaped by chance that day and found us immediately. He said that there was something strange about this matter, and there must be spies in the Hebei rebel army, so he wanted to thoroughly investigate this matter. , but there are not a few people who know him, so he...he plunged into the furnace and burned himself like this."

"Among us, Brother Lu is the only one with outstanding intelligence. No one can match him. There is nothing wrong with letting him investigate spies, but Brother Lu..."

When he said this, he was so choked up that he couldn't continue, Su San covered his mouth with his hands, and wept to tears. Although Xu Zizhen couldn't move, his body was still trembling involuntarily.

How much courage does it take to self-mutilate with fire?

Lu Qing settled down and then continued, he had the most contact with Lu Ying, so he was the one who knew the reason the most.

After Lu Ying self-harmed, he turned into a former Liao remnant soldier. He looked like he was living in seclusion somewhere in the mountains. His original plan was to return to Zhending Mansion after his burns were better. With his previous relationship, he would not be aware of it. He sneaked into the Jinren camp as a handyman, and slowly inquired about it, but what he didn't expect was that he ran into someone before he recovered from his injury——Mo Jingxia.

Mo Jingxia had just come out of Zhending at that time, and because he had failed to lurk in Prince Yun's Mansion, after much deliberation, Wu Shu still felt that it was most suitable for him to go to Bianjing, and this time the target he chose was the fourth prince of the Song Dynasty, that is, Jing Jing. Wang Zhaoqi.

What's even more coincidental is that Zhao Qi and Wang Fu came to the Daming Mansion at this time to prepare for the next round of peace talks with the Kingdom of Jin. With Wushu's connections, Mo Jingxia easily got a job under Zhao Qi's men. Just when he was about to take office, he accidentally discovered Lu Ying in the mountains.

Lu Ying is proficient in Khitan, after chatting with him for a few words, Mo Jingxia didn't suspect him, so he took him in as a follower. This old fox is very suspicious, and usually he would never use it with strangers, but Lu Ying His acting skills are very good, in Mo Jingxia's view, this is just a remnant Khitan soldier who can endure hardships and discard at any time.

Xu Zizhen also knew about the coming down. In order to reconfirm Lu Ying's identity, Mo Jingxia deliberately asked him to torture Xu Zizhen all night. After three days, he finally completely believed in Lu Ying, and it seemed that he wanted to bring Lu Ying back. I will definitely take it for my own use.

Xu Zizhen understood why he didn't even know where he was locked up, but Lu Qingmitang was able to find out the news so quickly and carry out the rescue. It's a pity that everything should be fine, but it happened in the hands of the old fox Mo Jingxia accident.

Looking at Lu Ying's completely icy body on the stone, Xu Zizhen gritted his teeth and swore silently that if he could recover from his injuries, he would find him even if he spent his entire life, and avenge Lu Ying by cutting him into pieces!

In addition, Lu Ying's lurking was very successful, but unfortunately, he only happened to save Xu Zizhen, but he didn't have time to find out who the spy on Hebei Road was.

Both Mi Tang and Lu Qing were in a low mood, Xu Zizhen suddenly said, "I'll look for this spy, and then I'll put him and Old Dog Mo together."

His voice was low and slow, but there was a firm determination in his words.

Mi Tang and Lu Qing nodded silently, but their eyes showed worry.

They have worked with Xu Zizhen before, and they have no doubts about his ability, but the current situation of Xu Zizhen is really not optimistic. He only said a few words, but his face is frighteningly pale, and his teeth are clenched. , clearly enduring the unspeakable pain.

The two looked at each other and exchanged a few words in a low voice, then Mi Tang suggested that Lu Ying's body should be cremated first, because the Lu family's ancestral grave was outside Zhending City, going to the burial would definitely alarm the Jin people, and there was no time now To do this, it is better to store the ashes here temporarily after cremation, and have a chance to hold a grand funeral in the future.

A pile of firewood was erected, and Lu Ying's body gradually dissipated in the blazing fire. Xu Zizhen lay on the stone bed and watched from afar, only feeling a rush of breath in his chest, as if he was looking for an outlet to vent. The breathing was getting heavier and heavier, finally, Xu Zizhen only felt a sweetness in his throat, spewed out a mouthful of blood, and then rolled his eyes and passed out.

After an unknown amount of time, Xu Zizhen woke up slowly, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw an old man with white beard and hair sitting on the side of the stone bed, with three fingers resting on his wrist, with a serious expression on his face, without saying a word.

Lu Qing didn't know where he went, Su San and Mi Tang were by his side, they all looked at the old man nervously, no one noticed Xu Zizhen's waking up.

Xu Zizhen didn't bother them either, and listened to their conversation with slightly closed eyes.

After a while, the old man's fingers left his veins, and Mi Tang hurriedly asked: "Master Zeng, how is brother Xu's injury? Is there a way to save it?"

Master Zeng hesitated for a moment, then said: "This little brother suffered from serious internal injuries, he could not recover after countless months of recuperation, and if it was just that, it would be fine, but he was also poisoned in his body."

Su San and Mi Tang asked anxiously together: "Can that be solved?"

Master Zeng sighed lightly: "I'm ashamed, I have never seen this poison before, let alone explain it."

With a bang, Su San fell to the ground, her face was as pale as paper, her eyes were full of disbelief, two lines of tears had already rolled down and landed on the skirt of her clothes.

Mi Tang also sat down on the stone bed with dull eyes, unable to say a word.

Xu Zizhen heard it clearly, and his heart sank.

Could it be that I just hang up like this?And even death can't be so straightforward, and you have to wait for the poison to slowly die?

Master Zeng sighed again, and said: "Although this little brother has taken the antidote, the old man guessed that he was seriously injured when he took the medicine, and the poison had already penetrated deep into the viscera, so the antidote can only control it for a while, but it cannot cure it." fundamental."

Su San's expression moved, as if he heard something, he suddenly jumped up and asked anxiously: "Master Zeng, you mean he won't die soon?"

Master Zeng looked a little embarrassed, but still nodded and said: "Exactly, this poison is not easy to cure, so this little brother may have to endure two months of suffering before..."

Su San looked like he had been pumped with blood, his face was full of excitement, and he said incoherently: "Two months are enough, two months are enough, someone can save him!"

Master Zeng and Mi Tang asked in unison: "Who can save?"

"Princess Sister... Oh, it's the eldest princess of Tubo, Zhuo Ya!"

Master Mi Tang Zeng looked at each other, but before he could speak, he saw Lu Qingfeng rushing in from outside, and shouted as he walked: "The golden dog blocked the exits from the mountain at the north and south ends!"

Su Santeng stood up, with a resolute expression on his face: "Just block it, I will cross Taihang Mountain with Xu Zizhen in my arms!"
