Queen Of Medicine

Several people sat down, but Xiao Li picked up the short three edged arrow just picked up on the ground, looked at it carefully and asked, "Miss, is this...?"

Zhuo Xi remembered, "where's Xiao soul?"

A voice sounded stiffly from the roof, "my subordinates are here."

Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "come in. Isn't it cold on the roof?"

"My subordinates are not cold." The voice is still cold.

Zhuo Xi knew that she was in a mood. As soon as she was in a mood, she claimed to be her subordinate. She didn't know who to show her temper, so she coughed, "pick up all the trigonous arrows you just took out and sit in the carriage. This is an order."

A figure slowly floated in from the door of the car.

Zhuo Xi motioned her to sit down. The carriage was originally for six people. Now it is full, and the pile of parts on the small table in the middle is very eye-catching. Zhuo Xi motioned to the crossbow in her hand.

Xiao soul immediately looked greatly, "master, this strange bow is powerful! Generally, the range of bow and arrow is up to 30 steps. This strange bow has a range of 80 steps and can shoot three arrows at the same time! "

The others exclaimed, "Eighty steps! Three arrows at the same time! " Everyone stared at Zhuo Xi with burning eyes.

Zhuo Xi said disappointed, "only eighty steps?!" As far as she knows, the range of the strongest crossbow can reach 600 steps. It seems that it needs to be studied and improved.

Everyone exclaimed, "only eighty steps?!"

Zhuo Xi had to chuckle and didn't explain, but said, "surprised speech, Xiao soul, you two have just seen my assembly process, but do you remember the method?"

Xiao soul confidently lay down in front of the short table, picked up a crossbow body, installed the crossbow arm, skillfully fastened the crossbow machine and bowstring, and then handed it to Zhuo Xi, "master, do you think so?"

Zhuo Xi exclaimed, "little soul, you have a lot of research on weapons?" He pulled the bowstrings on both sides and adjusted the length.

Xiao soul blushed. "My subordinates have been practicing martial arts since childhood. They sit among the trees all day. In addition to studying the cicada's cry for five long and two short, they study all the weapons they can meet. Just now, I'll see you again. "

Zhuo Xi leaned back and put all the parts in front of the table forward. "In that case, you can teach them how to assemble the crossbow. Look at your action, you can't fall down."

The other girls cried excitedly, and immediately chattered, "so this is called a crossbow? Sure enough, it's very similar. "

"Eighty steps is not far enough? Miss means you can shoot further? "

"It's possible. We might as well try adjusting the length of the bow string."

"How many arrows are there?"

"How many arrows can a crossbow match?"

……

Zhuo Xi listened to their lively voice, and finally found a little sense of sureness in her empty and worried heart for days. She was relaxed and sleepy, so she sat and lay down and fell asleep.

When Zhuo Xi woke up, he heard that the carriage had stopped in a busy place. She opened her eyes and the other five girls in the car stared at her. She was startled. "Why?"

"Miss, you finally wake up." Xiao Li held her hand and tears were about to overflow from her eyes.

"I just slept. What's your expression?"

Jing Yan quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his hand and said with a strong smile, "Miss, I told them you just fell asleep. They don't believe it. That's good. Are you hungry? Shall we go out to dinner? "

Zhuo Xi stretched out, looked at their red eyes and joked, "what a group of children. Let's go. I'm so hungry. Let's eat! Why don't you wake me up? " As he spoke, he got off the bus.

Only Xiao soul, with no expression on his face, took the lead in opening the curtain and propped the curtain at the door to let Zhuo Xi down.

It was in the evening. It was estimated that he had slept for a long time. When Zhuo Xi got off the bus, he was unsteady and was quickly held by Xiao soul behind him. She looked up at the bloody sunset at the end of the street, blinked, put her hand on her forehead, and saw that it was the street of a small town. Pedestrians are walking in a hurry, and there are several stalls on the street making the last call. A three-year-old child followed a man carrying a stall with his snot, stumbling forward, shouting "a Niang, a Niang."

Next to a small shop, a huge word "wine" hung in the wind, and a shop door creaked slightly with the wind. A waiter who was tidying up his tables and chairs saw Zhuo Xi and others looking at him. He immediately went out and asked enthusiastically, "my guest, are you top or stay in the hotel?"

Zhuo Xi looked at the word "Laifu inn" on her head and said with a smile, "it's a hotel naturally. Can there be four upper rooms? "

Xiao er's face smiled more and more brightly, "yes, come with me."

They raised their feet and followed the waiter into the inn. Zhuo Xi ordered Xiao soul to live in the same room. She was surprised to say that she wanted to object. Seeing Xiao soul's cold face, she had to whisper. The other two had one room, and Lao sun lived alone.

After a short rest, they went to the lobby to prepare for dinner.

The lobby was rather deserted. Only a few people sat in a far corner to eat. It was so quiet that there was no sound. Zhuo Xi glanced at him casually. He saw that the person sitting above seemed to be a woman. Because of the distance, he didn't care much.

Zhuo Xi sat alone in front of the table and ordered the dishes. Only then did he find that the front was empty. After another sweep, everyone stood behind him and turned his eyes. "What do you mean? Deliberately make me unable to eat? "

The others looked at each other and dared not answer. She added, "sit down. You don't have to sit at the same table in the carriage. You have to divide the table for dinner. Sit down. There are not so many rules. " All the talents slowly sat down, and the waiter immediately sent the dishes. Without saying anything, Zhuo Xi picked up the rough chopsticks and took the first course, saying "eat and eat." She didn't know why she felt extremely hungry in her stomach, as if she hadn't eaten for days. Looking at the long, thin and flat "bamboo" in his hand, he frowned. Good chopsticks were cut into this flat bamboo shape, which is really inconvenient. But it was the best chopsticks she had ever seen. At that time, in the verdant mountain, the slaves used only slightly straight branches they picked up at random, peeled and cut into appropriate lengths. The "bamboo chopsticks" used in Hou's house were made of bronze. They were heavy and slippery. Under her repeated protests, the craftsmen finally cut round bamboo chopsticks. Now I hurried out and forgot to bring some pairs. Let's take a look at the other people's fork. Fortunately, the bamboo chopsticks are easy to make. If you have the opportunity to cut two on the road, you can do it.

After dinner, Zhuo Xi returned to the room, called hot water in, washed her whole body comfortably, and then lay in bed. Listen, Xiao soul also took a quick bath, dried his hair, cleaned it up, blew out the wax candle and lay on another bed.

In the dark, Zhuo Xi suddenly said, "Xiao soul, how many hours have I slept in front?"

Xiao soul was surprised, "master, it didn't take long for you to sleep a little more. Those girls don't take care of themselves. It's just that they see more and more strange. "

Zhuo Xi sneered, "but the mouth grows on others. Do you really think I didn't hear it? The shopkeeper chatted with the waiter that the carriage had stopped at the corner all day and night. If I can sleep all day and night without sleep, there must be something wrong with me. Since Xiaobai didn't warn me, I wasn't poisoned. You must know what's wrong with me. "

Xiao soul tightly pursed his mouth and said nothing.

Zhuo Xi said, "in fact, I knew for a long time that what you doubted was Jingyan. That's why I chose to share the same room with you today. Tell me, when did you start doubting her? Why doubt her? "

Xiao soul was silent for a long time. Until Zhuo Xi thought she was asleep, she heard her whisper, "master, you have indeed slept for more than ten hours. My subordinates are really suspicious and surprised, but there is no real evidence, and my subordinates are hard to say anything. Along the way, we will be more careful of her. As for your physical condition, to tell you the truth, my subordinates really don't know. The hyacinth childe only said that you are different from ordinary people when you sleep. There is no difference at other times. Just take care of you when you sleep. "

Zhuo Xi was silent for a long time and sighed, "if you want to test the surprised words, it's also a very simple thing. You just... "

Xiao Hun hurriedly turned over and got out of bed, regardless of kneeling on the ground in his pajamas. "Master, even if my subordinates want to find out the details of their startling words, they will never bet on your safety. My subordinates have been staring at her for the past two days. Although you fell asleep, she seems to know it well and didn't show great anxiety. She just believes that you are just asleep and don't see anything different from her. She just keeps watch over you. "

Zhuo Xi said, "get up first and hide under the quilt quickly. It's chilly in spring. Although it's warmer to go south, it's still very cold. Now that I know, I have a problem in my heart. Don't worry. Naturally, I won't joke about my life. Let's have a look. "

"Promise!" Xiao soul turned over and hid in the quilt.

"So, do you know where they are now?"

Xiao soul nodded and thought that she might not see her actions, so he said, "my subordinates know that they have been working in Qingyun town near forgetting cliff. In the past ten days, they have searched the place within a hundred miles at the bottom of the cliff."

Zhuo Xi asked, "I haven't asked. Was he seriously injured the day he left Beijing?"

Xiao soul replied, "my subordinates don't know. When Hou Ye left Beijing, he rode out of Beijing. On the surface, it looks like ordinary people. People who don't know can't remember his injury. "

Can you ride a horse? Zhuo Xi could not help holding her hand. "Tell me what happened? How did the Marquis fall to the bottom of the cliff? "

"The Marquis left Beijing injured that day in order not to give anyone a chance to leave him. However, according to the news from the dark guard, the people of the prison yuan gate failed to hit the day before yesterday. The next day, they followed the Marquis all the way south, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack. Originally, Ziran they have been closely guarded to prevent them from having a chance. Unexpectedly, on that day, it seemed that in order to save an old friend, the Marquis went to the forgetting cliff alone. He was ambushed and fell off the cliff. His whereabouts were unknown. "

"Old friend?"

"The dark guards didn't find out. They only knew that there was a short arrow that day, nailing a note and a jade pendant to a tree passed by the carriage. When the Marquis saw the note and jade pendant, he didn't say a word. That night, Zi Ran found that the Marquis was missing. He followed the clues left by the Marquis all the way before he took people to the edge of the forgetting cliff. But they were a step late and watched the Marquis fall from the top of the cliff. "

"But did you see others?" Zhuo Xi tightened her heart.

"There were several people in black at the prison gate. Zi Ran fought with them and escaped one. The rest committed suicide on the spot. No clue. Since then, Zi Ran searched at the bottom of the cliff every day, and there was no trace. They also touched the cliff from the hanging rope at the top of the cliff and walked at the bottom of the cliff, but so far they haven't found anything. "

Zhuo Xi's mind turned quickly, and then gave an order, "Xiao soul, send a message to the dark guards of the marquis. There's no need to look around the forgetting cliff. Draw me a map of Qingyun town and its surrounding terrain, especially the route from Qingyun town to forgetting cliff and the route from Qingyun town to Liangzhou. We will leave for Qingyun town tomorrow. "
