seventy-nine, toad poison

The two of them took the order and left. Chen Lu was patrolling at the gate of the camp, thinking of countermeasures. He couldn't just wait like this. This was the biggest thing that happened to him since he left, and almost the entire army was wiped out.

Once no one can be saved, how can we go west?

Thinking of this, Chen Lu couldn't help but feel sad. Anyway, he was the only one here, so he sat down on the ground and cried secretly.

The man didn't shed tears easily because he didn't suffer any major changes. After crying for a while, he felt dizzy and thought he had no choice but to think of a way.

He began to think about these officers and soldiers. Judging from their symptoms, they did not look like they were dead. Obviously, the king wanted to give these people some breathing space and maybe save them.

When looking for a doctor, the only person who could ask for help was the pavilion chief, who was an official. But Chen Lu did not dare to speak out. He found Ha San and asked them to defend the camp while he went to find the pavilion chief himself.

The three of them were the only ones panting in the camp, and they didn't even know whether the animals were dead or alive. Chen Lu had no time to care.

Ha San said: "Brother Chen's big green horse has some magic power. It should not be poisoned. We might as well take a look."

Chen Lu suddenly had an idea. Yesterday's mount took on the appearance of a monster. This was the forest guard dog. He ate his own mount. Where could he get an original big green horse back?

Especially yesterday, when the savior escaped from the second princess' magic weapon yesterday, Chen Lu felt even more confident.

Chen Lu glanced at Ha San approvingly and ran towards the temporary stable. The horses and camels were lying there in a mess, but Chen Lu's big green horse was still standing there. When he saw Chen Lu coming, he snorted.

Chen Lu shed tears, as if he had met his savior, and Da Qingma seemed to understand what he meant, nodded, and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.

Chen Lu took it out and said, "I know who you are. Thank you for accompanying me. I will call you Brother Dog from now on." He mounted his horse and ran to the village.

He inquired all the way to the pavilion chief's house and told him what happened in the camp. He only said that someone had poisoned him, which frightened the pavilion chief.

If he was poisoned, it would be a big deal, and his life would be complete.

Chen Lu saw that he was so frightened and knew that what he said was too much. He quickly comforted him and said that it was nothing serious. He was in urgent need of a doctor now, but he had to keep it a secret.

The two of them went to a doctor's house together. He was the chief doctor here, just like Ade. The chief told him about the situation and he couldn't help but go.

The three of them arrived at the camp on horseback. When they saw this situation, they were stunned and the doctor turned around and left.

Chen Lu grabbed his horse's bridle and said: "Since you are here, take a look first. We will never let you run away in vain. If you don't even look at it, wouldn't it be a wasted trip? I'm right.

Right? I don’t care if you think it’s good or bad, I will reward you.”

The chief doctor shook his head and looked helpless. He dismounted and walked into the Chinese army's tent. First he checked Li Da's pulse, then Li Xian and Xi Zi, and took a few more serious checks.

Chen Lu looked at the chief doctor reluctantly, but he looked at it very seriously. In awe, he sat there and watched quietly.

After the doctor read it, he came over and Chen Lu asked him to sit down. He said: "Master, several people here have the same symptoms, they are poisoned by toad poison. Fortunately, they are all alive, but those who are weak will not survive."

Three days, no matter how good the physique is, they can only live for five days, and animals can only live for three days."

Chen Lu looked at what he said about the symptom, toad venom. Those monsters were not toads! The red line coming out of their mouths was not toad venom. If the pathogen could be found, there would be a way to rescue it.

Chen Lu was overjoyed, said "wait a moment", walked to the inner room, took out some gold and silver, and walked out.

He held a piece of gold in his hand, no matter how much it was, and handed it to the doctor, saying: "I am completely helpless and I am completely dependent on my husband. Please give me a prescription now. I have to trouble you two to buy medicine. This is a tablet."

The gold, no less than ten taels, is for husband's consultation fee. The silver is for buying medicine. I don't know how much it is, and I can't find it. You can go back and weigh it."

The chief doctor waved his hand and said: "Sir, don't be busy, just listen to what I have to say. I've seen that this is not an ordinary toad poison, and ordinary medicine can't save them at all. We have to use our method of returning to medicine, to fight poison with poison. In our Western Region,

There is a kind of poisonous insect, which is the natural enemy of toads. This kind of disease can only be treated by the saliva spitted out by the poisonous insect. But with so many people, where can we get so many poisonous insects?"

Chen Lu said: "It doesn't matter, just tell me where to catch this kind of Gu insect, and I will leave immediately."

The doctor nodded and said, "Sir, I have something I shouldn't ask. I hope you won't be surprised."

What Chen Lu usually hates to hear the most are these polite words. In officialdom, people can't help themselves. Everyone is like this. He, Chen Lu, is regarded as an alternative in officialdom.

This is a doctor, what kind of official polite words are you using! He is not a child, so why are you asking when you know you shouldn't ask?

But this was the time to employ people, so I didn't dare to offend, so I had no choice but to nod in agreement.

The doctor said: "You dare to say that the master is not telling the truth, there must be something fishy here. There has been a row in the camp all night, we all saw it, but no one dared to come over. I also have questions, first, why is Mr. Chen okay?

;

"Second, at this time of year, frogs are all in the mud. I see dead toads everywhere in the camp. What is going on? Now that I know the truth, I can help Mr. Chen find a solution."

The director of the pavilion also echoed. Chen Lu looked at the two of them with admiration. They were both smart people. He pondered for a moment, what should I say?

There is truth to these things, but they are mysterious and illusory. Who can believe it? He said that I, Chen Zicheng, have magical powers to protect my body. I told him that Daying had offended that old toad spirit. It’s strange that the doctor didn’t say that you are mentally ill! You turned around when you were scared.

Gotta run.

Thinking of this, he could only say vaguely: "I don't know the specifics. Just tell me where I can find the Gu worms."

Seeing that he didn't want to talk more, the chief doctor didn't ask any more questions, and said, "This kind of poisonous insect can be found in mountainous areas, rivers and lakes. You can send someone to look for it. I still have patients there, so I'll leave first."

After explaining how to use the poison, he picked up the piece of gold, put it in the medicine box, and left the camp with the pavilion chief.

Chen Lu repeatedly asked to keep it secret.

When Ha San saw them approaching the gate of the camp, he ran over, drew his sword, and shouted with a ferocious look: "Anyone who dares to reveal even a single word here, I, Ha San, will kill his whole family."

The two people looked at his cold sword and felt a chill on the back of their necks. When they heard his name again, they knew he was not a good person. They knelt down and kowtowed, swearing to keep it secret.

Chen Lu saw this and felt relieved. He walked over and told Ha San what happened.

Ha San said: "We Mongolians and people from the Western Regions all know this kind of poisonous insect. If you are exposed to its saliva, you will definitely die. Nalan should have seen it too, let's go ask her."

The two found Nalan and explained the situation. Nalan said: "It can be found in stagnant ponds, mountains and dense forests. I have seen it before, but if I try to identify it now, I'm afraid I won't be able to recognize it."

Chen Lu said: "Brother Ha, I will go find my brother, and you and your brothers and sisters will guard the camp."
