Chapter 177

Kneeling in the prison, the Huns held a ragged bag in their hands, and wore a Hu suit. They looked quite wealthy, with a swollen face, a barbaric and domineering nomad, small eyes, and a big nose.Seeing me come in, the domineering disappeared immediately. I saw bruises and redness all over his body, probably from being beaten by Pei Bao and the others.

I asked him to get up very politely, this guy understands Chinese.

"General Yuan, the villain has already said what he should say, please let me go."

I looked at the Huns who were still kneeling and trembling on the ground and said, "Is there any antidote for your poison?" The Hun said: "I have a lot of poisons here, most of them have antidote, only one has no cure. "

I said loudly: "Say."

The Huns kowtowed like pounding garlic; "General, spare your life, General, spare your life. There is a poison in the villain's hand called Seven Snake Birthday, which is made from the saliva of seven poisonous snakes. There are seven kinds of poison in it, which interact with each other. Mixed, so there is no cure. People who are poisoned will lose consciousness within two months, but they can’t see it at all on the surface, just like falling asleep—”

Seven Snakes!It seems to be the birthday of the Seven Snakes.I sneered and said, "Don't you know how to spell death? If you dare to bring this kind of poison to the general's mansion to poison your wife, I won't have your surname Yuan unless you peel off your skin."

"Wrong, wrong, the general, the villain and the general's wife have no grievances or enmity, how could they come to harm the wife, besides, even if I want to harm her, the general's mansion is guarded by iron walls and iron walls, the villain will not be able to enter at all. "

What I said in my heart is also reasonable. It is impossible for a Hun to enter the general's mansion. "Did you sell this poison to anyone?"

"Yes—" the Huns were decisive.

I kicked him and said angrily, "Who did you sell it to?" The Huns got up and said, "I only sold it once, she was a pretty girl, about 20 years old, and she gave me 500 taels of silver. Asked me to disappear immediately, but I didn't want to go, so I stayed—”

A pretty girl!A beautiful little girl, 20 years old, can't be my wives, must be a maid. Can you recognize her when you see her? "

"Yes, I can recognize her even when turned into ashes, she is so beautiful, I remember her."

I said to Pei Bao: "Change his clothes and follow me as a soldier."

"The general wants to ask questions, all the servants must gather in the yard."|
Half an hour later, all the servants and maidservants of the General's Mansion gathered in the wide white stone square facing the main entrance of the hall.I stood on the steps, with Pei Bao on the left and the Huns on the right.

There are roughly 500 to [-] servants in the General's Mansion, with a male to female ratio of one to three.I pretended to tell them some hygiene issues, and led the Huns to watch the maidservant sister to their fullest.The subordinates all felt that the general was stimulated or had a high fever, so he ignored the important affairs of the country and cared about such trivial matters.

After saying a few words, I went back to the hall and quietly asked the Huns: "Is there any?"

"Report to the general, I have already read it, no."

I was taken aback, could it be that I made a mistake, Wen Ji didn't have this kind of poison?I called Yuan Hu, the housekeeper who came to preside over the daily affairs, and asked in a low voice, "Have all the maids in the house arrived?"

Yuan Hu knew that the general was in a bad mood recently, and he always wanted to avoid me, but now he came over boldly, trembling with fear, nodding at first, then shaking his head again. "There is—there is one—Miss Diaochan's maid, Lian'er, is sick and has a fever, so she didn't come."

Diao Chan!My head was suddenly struck by lightning, and after a while of dizziness, I waved my hand: "Let them all disperse."

"Diao Chan, I heard that you are sick, and this general came here to see you. Come on, bring the presents in." I shouted outside.

Pei Bao and the Huns pretending to be soldiers came in holding some jewelry and bowing their heads.Pei Bao shaved off the mustache of the Huns, made his face black, and put on a hard helmet, so he couldn't recognize it unless he looked carefully.

strangeness!Diao Chan's eyes flashed with the characteristic look of a frightened deer, as if she was ready to run away whenever there was any movement.Seeing my eyes dodge, my tone became more trembling: "No, no, I feel uncomfortable at my slave's place, no."

I said: "What about Lian'er, let her come out, the general has a gift for her." Diao Chan shuddered, and smiled lightly: "Lian'er, she is really sick, she is in the back room."

"Then you should let me take a look, don't forget, I am the No.1 doctor in Jizhou." I pretended to be nonchalant.

"Then how can it be, she is a lowly girl, how can she work for the general, she can't." Diao Chan was extremely reluctant.Her expression made me more suspicious, and her face sank; "Why, this general doesn't even have this bit of face, and I can't even want to see the pretty girl beside you."

Diao Chan felt desolate and fearful in her heart, and sighed secretly, it would be fine if you were really a womanizer, but no one in Jizhou City knew that you, Yuan Xi, came from a lover.

Diao Chan was not too disobedient, so she bit the bullet and went to greet Lian Er.There was a rustling sound of dressing in the room, and then a palace shoe shattered, and Lian'er twisted her graceful body and came slowly.

"It's a crime for Lian'er to see the general and let the general miss me as a little girl." Lian'er was articulate, lively and lovable.

There was a sound of "bang".The tray in the hands of the Huns fell to the ground, and the gold, silver and jade jewelry fell all over the floor.Diaochan jumped up in fright, her face was frighteningly pale, and she kept smoothing her chest with her hands.I hysterically yelled at Pei Bao: "You bastard, if you don't take him down, hit him a hundred times. Hurry up."

Of course Pei Bao understands what I mean, just let him take the person away, don't let him show his flaws.How can the dignified special forces not understand even this trick!Lian'er raised her head, but she still hadn't seen the face of the Huns clearly.According to Pei Bao, the Huns had two mouths anyway, and the Huns were bleeding out of their mouths. Pei Bao used his body to block the sight of Lian Er and Diao Chan, grabbed the Huns by the neck, and carried him away.Lian'er didn't see anything, but seemed to feel that the soldier was going to be unlucky.Lian'er bent down to pick up the jewelry.

I was half-hearted, and said to Lian Er: "Pick two pieces of jewelry and give them to you. In a few days, I will give them to your lady, just send them over." piece of jewelry, go.I stopped her and took her pulse.Lian'er's arm was held by me, her pretty face flushed, and her pulse beat faster.She did have a fever, but she wasn't lying.So why is Diao Chan so flustered?Is it a guilty conscience?Lian Er took the jewelry and left.I held Diao Chan in my arms and said softly: "These days, the general is too busy to take care of you, so please don't take it for granted." Diao Chan's pair of water-cut pupils seemed to be filled with soul-stirring magic power, Take a look at the kind that gives you a cerebral thrombosis.She put her head close to my chest and said in a sobbing voice: "Chan'er knows, Chan'er doesn't care about it, a concubine is born with a hard life——

After comforting and talking for a while, I came out in a hurry.The Huns and Pei Bao are waiting for me in Cai Yan's room.The Huns were so frightened that their faces turned yellow, and when they saw me, they knelt down with weakness in their lower limbs: "General, the villain should die, the villain's poison was sold to that little girl named Lian Er just now—" He looked at me. Cai Yan lying on the bed: "Then—this lady has been poisoned by Seven Snakes, and the villain will know it at a glance."

Sure enough, it was Diao Chan, and my heart was churning, like bubbles in boiling water.Pei Bao whispered: "My lord, do you want to arrest her?" I thought to myself, now is not the time.Shaking his head, he asked the Huns: "Is Madam saved?"

In fact, I don’t need to ask, I know that this Xiongnu dog is a bad ruffian who can only poison but not detoxify.He shook his head vigorously, expressing his helplessness.I thought to myself, although you did not inflict the poison, but if Cai Yan really died, I would still mix you into minced meat and chop it into stuffed buns.As I thought about it, I couldn't help showing a fierce light in my eyes.There was also a burst of sadness in my heart, and I couldn't help holding Wen Ji's slippery jade hand again.

"You used those seven kinds of snakes to temper poison. Tell me. Write it in detail. Hurry up." There is a pen and paper on the desk. Beat up.There is no way not to fight, he wrote it in Xianbei.I was also so angry that I wanted to chop him up immediately. "General, I can't write Chinese characters."

"You read it out and let Pei Bao write it."

The seven snakes of the Huns are really powerful. The poisonous snakes he uses are the most vicious, aggressive and poisonous snakes in the world today, such as five-step snakes, rattlesnakes, coral snakes, iron heads, vipers, pit vipers, And the venomous red snake in the desert.A piece of Caihou paper densely records the methods of extracting snake venom and tempering snake venom, even where these kinds of snakes can be found, it is clearly written.It can be said that except for the method of detoxification, everything else has been explained.

Pei Bao rolled his eyes and focused on his heart: "My lord, this is easy to handle. I have a way to detoxify." I thought he really had a way, and I almost cried in gratitude: "Say, it really works, and I will make you a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households"

Pei Bao squinted his eyes and stared fiercely at the Huns and said: "Catch all seven kinds of snakes, bite this bastard, and then find a way to detoxify him, and my wife will be saved." This is impossible, at most It's just one more corpse, completely useless.But Pei Bao's words reminded me that I can use fire to fight fire.Things are only like this now, I can't help but think of the TV series "Tian Long Ba Bu" that Duan Yu used to detoxify with the method of fighting poison with poison in his previous life.But where to find poisons more poisonous than the above seven poisons?The most poisonous thing in the world is——

The nemesis of snakes is centipede. It is recorded in Hua Tuo's medical classics that there is a kind of red centipede that grows in the north that can kill dozens of adult snakes with a little venom.The origin of the centipede happened to be in Jizhou.

Pei Bao's words almost frightened the Huns to death. He lay on the ground and howled, "Great general, spare my life, great general, I'll be happy if you kill me with a knife, don't—"

I thought to myself, it's still useful for me to keep you, but you can't die. "If you don't want to die, just do something for General Ben!"

The Huns raised their heads and said firmly: "General, don't say one thing, as long as I can do it, a thousand pieces are fine." I said with a sly smile: "You play with poison, of course you know that there is a kind of poisonous snake in the north." The more poisonous red centipede, go catch it for me."

The Huns looked sallow and looked scared, but thinking about it, it was much better than being bitten to death by seven poisonous snakes, and nodded repeatedly: "I will go, I will go." I said to Pei Bao: "Take ten special forces to follow, within three days One arm was cut off without result, and one leg was cut off without result after four days. There was no news for six days, so I brought it back to feed the poisonous snake." Pei Bao agreed easily.But the Huns almost died of fright, and their heads banged on the floor: "Don't worry, General, Huguda will definitely live up to his mission, and he will definitely live up to his mission." I thought to myself that his name was Huguda.

After Hu Guda and Pei Bao left, I have been studying medical classics. It seems that this method of fighting poison with poison has not been used by many people before the Three Kingdoms. There are some ambiguous records in Hua Tuo's medical books.The main point is that to fight poison with poison, one must master the toxicity and weight of the poison, too little is useless.There are too many, it is very dangerous to get rid of the old poison and get the new poison.

For three days, I tried various drugs to detoxify Cai Yan one after another, with little effect.Zhen Mi and Mrs. Gan came to greet each other every day, and Mi Zhu and Mi Shan also came twice.Jia Xu and Xu Shu also looked for doctors everywhere to find a way.I didn't tell anyone about Cai Yan's poisoning.Due to the depressed mood, I haven't seen any guests for many days, and I don't even bother to read Huainan's battle report. Anyway, Teacher Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Lu Su, and Zilong will take care of it. No matter how powerful Sun Quan is, he can't afford to offend them.In the afternoon of the next day, the soldiers came to report that Jiangdong had sent envoys to discuss peace and asked if I had seen him.My mother's heart is annoyed.I get angry when I think of Sun Quan, bastard, don't help me, help Cao Cao. "No, no, let him wait." I thought, if Wen Ji is fine, maybe I am in the mood to see you, Wen Ji is going to die, and I will let you be buried with her.Give Sun Quan a blow.

Pei Bao and Huguda came back on the fourth day, and Huguda's arm was still healthy. Pei Bao explained: "I caught it on the third day. The journey was too far. When we reached the plains, we hurried back for a day and a half, so it was too late. .”

At this moment, my mood can be described as tears of gratitude. How could I blame the two of you?

Cai Yan couldn't wait anymore, Hu Guda said: "It's a miracle that Madam can live for such a long time, but she can't last long, her forehead is already turning blue, as long as she is half an inch forward, the snake venom will enter her brain, and there is no cure." It’s almost there.” I was so nervous that I almost suffocated, I stared at Hu Guda and said, “Have you ever heard of fighting poison with poison?” Hu Guda and Pei Bao shook their heads at the same time: “I haven’t heard of it, I’ve never heard of it.”

I lowered my head and stared at the bundle in Huguda's hand; "The general wants something alive." Huguda said, "Yes, it's alive. The villain knows that this stinky thing was wrapped in mud by me. It won’t die if you leave its head outside, and it can even bite people.”

"It's good to be able to bite people." I squinted at Pei Bao, "Go to the cell and bring two death row prisoners to wait for me."

Pei Bao didn't understand, so he scratched his head and left. "Do you still have the birthday of the Seven Snakes?"

"Yes, the general still has quite a few."

"Take the centipede and follow me to the cell." Before leaving, he didn't forget to tell the special forces at the door that no one was allowed to let him in. Again, even Mrs. Zhen couldn't do it.It's not that he doubts Zhen Mi, it's mainly because what he said is weighty and saves a lot of nonsense.

"My general, I want you two to do one thing. If you do it, not only will you not be beheaded, but you will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold each. Do you want to do it?" One of the two condemned prisoners thought, who Anyone who dares not is an idiot.The other was thinking, how can there be such a good thing in the world, a pie in the sky?
"The general told you to drink these two bottles of poison—"

"Don't do it—"

"It's better to beheaded"

With the Seven Snakes in my hand, I winked at Pei Bao.Pei Bao thought to himself, the lord is crazy, his wife is poisoned and can't live, so he tortured the death row prisoner with poison, isn't it crazy or something broken?Thinking about it, it's not about letting him drink.These special forces are cold-blooded, killing people is easier than killing chickens.He doesn't care about anything else, since it's the master's order, if you don't say anything, execute it!My lord is so kind to me!
After waving his hands, several guards came up and hugged the two prisoners tightly. Two of them opened their mouths, and the death row prisoners didn't even have a chance to move.The two smells of sweetness were a bit fishy, ​​and the drinks that looked like cola rolled into their throats, and the two of them were so frightened that they almost lost their breath.All eyes are straight.When he was let go, he even forgot to scream.

Cai Yan used chronic poison because the dosage was small. If you drink this thing in a bottle, the chronic poison will become instant kill.Sure enough, within a cup of tea time, the two condemned prisoners wailed like pigs being slaughtered, and began to bang their heads against the wall.The two scratched their throats with their hands, and the scratches were bloody, and a layer of skin was pulled off their chests.Black blood flowed from his head.Even Pei Bao was a little flustered when he heard it.I said to Hu Guda beside me: "Quickly, take out the centipede and give them both a bite."

Hu Guda wanted to run away, thinking that the general of the Han people was simply inhuman, less human than the wolf on the grassland, and more vicious than our Shanyu.People are so miserable, and they still want to bite centipedes. This man is a devil, definitely a devil.Pei Bao was sad in his heart, the lord was not like this before, Mrs. Cai's death must have hit him too hard, maybe he went crazy.I looked at Hu Guda who was trembling, and said sharply: "If you don't go, I will let you drink the Seven Snakes."

When Hu Guda heard it, I drank it. It would be better to let those two be bitten, anyway, they would be poisoned to death.A sheep is herding, and a flock of sheep is herding.come on.Walking over with the bag in hand, he took out a lump of mud.I saw a red head as thick as a little finger sticking out of the mud, still swaying from side to side, with mucus dripping from the corner of its mouth, as if it was angry.In order to save his life, Hu Guda aimed his martial arts at the two of them.The two of them were already in pain, but after being bitten, a poisonous gas rushed into their hearts, and they lost consciousness and passed out.I sat still.Huguda put the centipede in a bag.Pei Bao felt cold for a while.

The three of them and a group of guards who were stunned and dared not breathe did not speak.Everyone doesn't know what I want to do.I was nervous and sweating, not knowing if this method would work.Time passed by second by second, and I was silently reading in my heart.

After about a stick of incense, one of the condemned prisoners suddenly jumped up from the ground, looked outside stupidly, and didn't speak.I was happy and worried at the same time, the happy thing was that the poison of the centipede could really control the Seven Snakes, but the worry was that this guy must not have been fooled by the poison, he didn't recognize anyone.

Just when I was having mixed feelings, the other one suddenly got up from the ground, looked outside, and cursed loudly: "You bastard, what kind of general are you to use this method to harm people? Otherwise, it will be miserable." "Okay—" I slapped my thigh and jumped up, and it worked, "let them both go, and each will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold."

"My lord, these two are thieves in the ocean, murdering people, stealing goods and committing all sorts of crimes—"

"What's the crime? The torment just now has been atoned for. Let it go."

Pei Bao said: "It's better to put it with the special forces, so as to save them from causing trouble." I said with a smile: "This method is good, it kills two birds with one stone. The best of both worlds."

"Let the centipede bite Madam?!" Hu Guda's face was twisted like a steamed bun. "The villain dare not, the villain dare not." Is it? Just because the poison of the centipede restrains the poison of the seven snakes, the two poisons cancel each other out. Hurry up and release the poison." Mutual cancellation, this word is too esoteric for Pei Bao and Hu Guda. Shaking his head, expressing his confusion.One thing the two of them barely understood was that fighting poison with fire can save lives.Because a chemical experiment has been done just now, which proves that someone escaped from death by a narrow margin!
The red centipede took a bite on the back of Cai Yan's snow-white hand, and was immediately put into a sack by Hu Guda.Pei Bao lit a stick of incense, waiting to see the reaction.Cai Yan's condition is obviously much more serious than the two just now, and the chronic poison has settled into his internal organs after a period of time.After a stick of incense was burned, Cai Yan's breathing became heavier and he moved his fingers a few times, but he still couldn't wake up.I gritted my teeth cruelly and said, "I'm biting—"

Huguda hesitated and said: "What if I get a new poison?" I thought to myself, I can only take a risk, "Bite, bite."

The second bite was on the back of the hand, and a stream of black blood immediately gushed out from the back of the hand.After tense and suffocating for a stick of incense, Cai Yan, who was lying dead on the bed, suddenly coughed violently and sat up from the bed like a spring, and then fell down again.
