Warm Emperor's Favorite: Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 180 Don't Go Deep

He Lao's complexion changed: "Could it be that someone is refining that thing?"

Feng Qi's eyes lit up, as if seeing a little fluorescent light in the dark, Mr. He must know how this fish mutated.

However, Mr. He went on to say: "However, more than [-] years have passed since that incident. Before the emperor ascended to heaven, he had already issued a death order. No one is allowed to refine that kind of poison."

Feng Qi asked anxiously: "What the hell is it?"

"Uh... I'm afraid you will be scared if I say it!" Mr. He deliberately kept it secret.

Feng Qi rolled her eyes and didn't speak.

Yan Kuan slapped his thigh, causing the wound to take a deep breath: "Could it be corpse ointment?"

Hearing the word corpse paste, Feng Qi turned pale, she knew about it. 60 years ago, there was a man with very good medical skills. He did not know where he got some notes recording plasters. At first, he used animals to experiment and refine the plaster to make pills.

Ordinary people can immediately inherit the abilities of those animals, those who eat tigers will have the strength of tigers, and those who eat cats will have the ability to see at night.

The emperor at that time was very happy and asked the doctor to build a powerful army, but the medicine had side effects. After taking it for a month, he had to take one pill every day. I can't even move them.

In order to conceal the side effects of his medicine, the doctor began to experiment with human corpses. Unfortunately, the records in his notes were limited, and he was eager for quick success. In the end, all the people in the team went crazy and rushed out of the forest to kill people.

After the emperor learned of the situation, he immediately ordered the doctor to be killed, trying to cover up the scandal, but the doctor ran away and was never heard from again.

Although Feng Qi did not witness the tragedy with her own eyes, there are still records in many miscellaneous books, it is said that blood flowed like a river and thousands of people died.

Yan Kuan's lips trembled a few times: "Isn't that fabricated?"

Mr. He shook his head: "No, this old man is 72 years old. When that incident happened, I would probably have died too if I hadn't gone to Fucheng for the exam.

When I returned to my hometown, the local government said that all the villagers died within three days of being infected with the disease, and their bodies were all buried in mass graves.

I once sneaked into the village, saw a lot of blood, and rescued an old man in the cellar, but the old man died after speaking a few words. "

Feng Qi asked: "What did he say?"

"He said that a lot of people and ghosts suddenly rushed into the village. They bit people when they caught them, and they specialized in sucking blood. The people in the village were slaughtered overnight.

By the way, the old man said that he was stuffed into the cellar by his son to hide him, and his son led those monsters to the mountain.I also went up the mountain to search, but only found some scattered corpses, and I didn't see any monsters. "He Lao sighed.

Feng Qi thought for a moment and said: "I read a miscellaneous book before, and I only thought it was written to scare people, but now it seems that it is a medical examination."

Xuanyuan Yi asked: "Where did you see it? What did you write?"

Feng Qi bit her lips: "When he was engaged to the third prince before, he would send some small things into the house, and that miscellaneous book was placed in one of the boxes.

Most of the miscellaneous books are about anecdotes, and one of them is about the living dead.

If a person who takes corpse ointment is deeply poisoned, the blood flow will be slowed down, and even a fire cannot expel the cold from the body, so drinking warm blood can relieve it. "

Xuanyuan Yi raised his eyebrows and said: "So they are just people with some strength and lost their minds?"

Feng Qi nodded: "That's right, it's like a wolf is hungry, if it wants to survive, it doesn't care if it's of the same kind or not, as long as it has something to eat."

"Will those fish mutate after eating medicine dregs or something?" Xuanyuan Yi asked.

Mr. He stood up: "Don't guess, I think it won't be long before the imperial decree to let us return to Beijing will come down. We might as well hurry up and check it out. If it's not that people are making body paste now, then someone was doing it in the past. Refined there.

No matter what the outcome, we must be ruined, right? "

Feng Qi nodded: "That's right, the root cause of the epidemic is that someone polluted the water source on the top of the mountain. This is man-made. Someone must know about this and want to study the practice of corpse paste."

"Third prince..." Yan Kuan muttered with a pale face.

Feng Qi was taken aback, why didn't the self in the previous life know that Xuanyuan Jue was researching corpse paste?Everything here was burned down after the plague, and he didn't pay much attention.

Or did someone use Xuanyuan Jue's hand to turn this place into a place of death, and then sneaked in to make corpse paste?
It's a pity that I don't know who that mysterious person is, if I know, I won't let him go.

Xuanyuan Yi was silent for a moment and said: "How about this, I will take someone to the mountain to check first, if there is another way to go, I don't need to go into the water. After all, the fish in the water is a big trouble, and we can't drain the water there."

Feng Qi asked: "Is the water on the mountain still usable now?"

Xuanyuan Yi nodded: "It can be used as normal drinking water, but we must find the source of water. I hope the source of the water is clean, so that we can stop the flow, drain the water in the pool and re-store it."

Feng Qi nodded, after all, the water accumulated in the pool is really disgusting, even though it does not have the ability to cause disease, it is still a bit awkward to drink.

After resting for a few days, Yan Kuan's injury was no longer serious, and the four of them and one cat came to the pool on the top of the mountain.

Xuanyuan Yi said: "I didn't find any other entrances, so I can only open the mouth of the pool and let the water in for a day. You see, that is the entrance."

Feng Qi looked down, and finally saw a dark hole under a big protruding rock. The water in the pool had flowed down quite a bit, and now only half of it was there. Gnaw to the bone.

"We have to be careful, the fish below are very ferocious, just because this is the water source, so we can't poison them." Xuanyuan Yi felt helpless.

Feng Qi nodded: "Let's go down and have a look, these fish will be cleaned up later. If it doesn't work, just cover the bottom with sand, and when the fish die, dig them out and clean them up."

Xuanyuan Yi nodded: "Very good, I will hang you down with a rope, wait for me at the entrance of the cave, don't go deep."

Feng Qi nodded, and took the lead to sit in the basket. Inside the frame were a fire box and a fire tube. The fire tube was also a product of the Sanctuary Kingdom, and it was several times more expensive than the fire box.

When they got down, Feng Qi crawled into the entrance of the cave. The place was dark and smelled like mud, and there were vigorous fish struggling on the ground.

"I'm here, pull up!" Feng Qi shouted.

The purple pupils on her shoulders were shining brightly, and her little nose shrugged a few times: "Meow!"

"Huh? You said there is something delicious here?" A black line appeared on Feng Qi's forehead.
