Han Changmu was not surprised, but showed an expected expression, nodded and said: "It doesn't matter, just leave the medicine, bring in a small stove and a medicine jar, and then bring in a boxwood bath bucket, fill it with bath soup and bring it in ."
The man Ying claimed, put the medicine on the food table, and turned around to prepare it.
Xie Mengxia came over with a melancholy look on her face, and sighed: "Jiuzhao, I'm missing some medicine, what can I do?" He turned to look at Yao Yao: "This girl is really hopeless, right?"
Han Changmu said confidently: "No, I expected that I might not be able to buy that medicine. I have other preparations, but A Yao will have to suffer a little."
Xie Mengxia pursed her lips and said nothing.
He felt that Yao Yao had already suffered a lot, how could he suffer any more.
Not long after, the prepared items were delivered to the room. When the two barbarians exited, they closed the door of the room. Then one person guarded the door of the room very vigilantly, and the other went to the front yard.
Han Changmu opened the baggage he picked up from the cliff, took out the hollow tea brick, broke it open, and a whole piece of cooked rhubarb fell out.
This was the first time Xie Mengxia saw these things. He was extremely surprised. He picked them up and asked, frowning slightly: "Is this rhubarb?" He paused, suddenly understood, and cursed in a low voice angrily: "These black If you are so careful, you dare to earn any money, and you don’t care about the country’s foundation at all. How is this different from giving up the border of Dajing to me?”
Han Changmu divided the rhubarb into appropriate portions, put it into a medicine jar, and boiled it together with the medicine he just caught.
Hearing Xie Mengxia's words, he smiled faintly: "People say that His Highness the King of Han is a dandy and a bastard, but I don't think so."
Xie Mengxia touched the back of his head and smiled: "My dandy is real, and my general knowledge is also real. It's just that I'm a little more dandy."
Han Changmu curled his lips, slowly stirred the medicine jar, and spoke slowly: "It's not just Rhubarb that I gave up. Along the way, I saw in the hands of the Weiyuan Escort Bureau and the Zhou Family Louchuan, I saw the clamps that are only available in the military. Crossbows, the Turks are ready to move, but our officials are busy fighting with each other to eliminate dissidents, and the generals have no intention of training troops and only care about collecting money and choosing leaders. If things go on like this, the court will be turbulent and the borders will be unstable. Sooner or later, the Turks will march in."
Xie Mengxia's heart tightened. It's not that he hadn't thought about this, but he hadn't thought about it carefully. He didn't think about it so seriously. He just felt that as long as he kept a low profile, bided his time, didn't fight for anything, and allowed King Qin to ascend to the throne as he wished, he would be able to retire and do what he wanted. An idle prince with idle clouds and wild cranes.
But he forgot that the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind didn't stop.
He wanted to retreat, but there were always people behind him who didn't want him to retreat, or in other words, no one believed that he really wanted to retreat.
His retreat, in the eyes of outsiders, was nothing more than retreat for advancement.
He shook his head with a wry smile and sighed.
What kind of thing is this? Even if you are a dandy, some people will envy you and hate you.
He sighed: "Jiuchao, we have been missing for so long, there must be some movement in the capital."
Han Changmu pursed his lips: "Of course, after a few more days, the news will reach here, and we will know about it, and we will be able to deal with it when we return to Beijing."
There was a gurgling sound in the medicine jar. The smell of this medicine was particularly different. It was not bitter or fragrant, but had a faint smell.
Han Changmu poured the fried medicine into the bath soup, stirred it evenly, and then said to Xie Mengxia: "Tuck up the trousers of Yao Yao's left leg."
Xie Mengxia nodded and did as he was told.
Han Changmu took out his dagger, roasted it on the candlelight, and pointed it at Yao Yao's leg.
The injury on the leg had healed, and the redness and swelling had disappeared, but it left a dark black mark, winding towards the heart.
Han Changmu took a slow breath, held the dagger steadily, and flashed a cold light.
There was a very deep cut on the dark mark, and bright blood flowed out immediately, but the dark mark did not change at all.
Yao Yao, who was in a coma, struggled for a moment, his face showing a twisted look of pain.
Han Changmu's heart ached for a moment, then he came to his senses and asked Xie Mengxia to pick up Yao Yao and soak her leg in the bath.
The blood flowed gurglingly, turning the bath water red in an instant.
Xie Mengxia looked dumbfounded. He was afraid that Yao Yao would bleed out before he could cure his poison. He was stunned for a long time before saying: "Jiuzhao, is this method of yours reliable? Don't wait until the blood dries up." ."
Han Changmu pursed his lips and said nothing, looking at the bathing water with unblinking eyes.
I saw that the color of the blood gradually changed, no longer bright red, but became turbid, as if mixed with a trace of misty color.
Han Changmu then calmly sighed, and the heart that had been hanging high was settled in his heart.
He calmly looked at the bathing water and said calmly: "Look, there have been changes. Don't worry. Although Ayao will lose too much blood, her life will be fine. Just take more supplements and she will be fine."
Xie Mengxia pouted.
The feeling is not that he lost too much blood and was dizzy and couldn't stand, so I don't feel bad.
The blood water became more and more turbid, and the gray color gradually turned into black. It seemed to be spiritual, floating in the bath water.
Han Changmu saw the changes in the bathing water and became more aware. He picked up Yao Yao, wiped his wet legs, and sprinkled the wound with anti-bleeding medicine.
The bleeding slowly stopped, and the trace of dark black faded away, visible to the naked eye, and turned into light gray, but it was still very long.
He nodded with satisfaction and finally showed a faint and cheerful smile: "It seems that this method is effective. If you soak it like this two or three times, the poison will be completely eliminated."
Xie Mengxia curled her lips even more fiercely.
If the blood is drained two or three more times, I'm afraid the person will really bleed out and die before the poison is cured.
He curled his lips and said, "Jiu Chao, are you sure A Yao's blood is enough for you to release like this?"
Han Changmu smiled: "In the past few days, cook more Shiquan Dabu Decoction for her to drink."
Xie Mengxia snorted, wiped Yao Yao's feet, and put on her footwear. Just halfway through, he exclaimed in surprise: "Jiu Chao, look, come and see, what is this, what's on A Yao's body?" How could there be such a thing?"
Han Changmu was so shocked by Xie Mengxia that he quickly looked over and his face darkened.
He took Yao Yao's leg and looked carefully at the inside of the ankle.
There is a tattoo under the skin, which is a four-petal plum blossom. The stamen of the plum blossom looks like a five-petal snowflake.
His eyes were stung severely and he was speechless for a long time.
Xie Mengxia didn't know the meaning of this tattoo, but he knew it well.
He had interrogated Li Huwei and knew what the seal they used to convey the message looked like. He had also seen the sachet in Li Huwei's hand, and he was really impressed by the tattoo pattern.
He couldn't figure out why this tattoo appeared on Yao Yao's body and what it meant.
He said nothing and felt Yao Yao's ankle slowly getting colder.
Xie Mengxia suddenly shouted: "It's gone, it's gone, look at you, it's gone, the tattoo is gone."
Han Changmu suddenly came back to his senses, and looked at Yao Yao's ankle again. Sure enough, it was empty, and it was so fair and delicate.
He was stunned and wanted to regard it all as an illusion, but he couldn't deceive himself.
He pressed Yao Yao's feet into the bath water and soaked for a while.
When I took it out again, the tattoo appeared again.
Xie Mengxia clicked his tongue and marveled: "This, what kind of magical skill is this? I have never heard of the sin slaves in Ye Ting getting tattoos like this."
Han Changmu was a little distracted and murmured: "Isn't it too wasteful for the sin slaves in Yeting to use this ancient skill from the past dynasties to mark their marks?"
"What are you talking about? Jiuchao, this is an ancient skill from the previous dynasty." Xie Mengxia was surprised and asked.
Han Changmu came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I saw it in a book, but after careful comparison, it is different from A Yao's tattoo. I think A Yao was injured in Ye Ting. The officials are afraid of being punished, so they should give them tattoos to cover up their wounds."
"Cover the scars?" Xie Mengxia looked at his ankle carefully in disbelief, frowned and said, "Jiuchao, don't be ridiculous, there are no scars here."
Han Changmu said seriously: "Don't you know the tricks in Ye Ting? He must have been beaten so hard that there were scars, and then A Yao was attracted by some nobleman. He originally wanted to raise him and donate money to him. Saint, it is a grave sin to leave scars like this. Don't the officials have to find ways to cover it up? It is estimated that A Yao was young when he was injured, so the scar will slowly grow on its own."
Xie Mengxia was naturally aware of the shameful things going on in Ye Ting. When Han Changmu said this, he put aside his doubts, thought about it, and suddenly asked: "Jiu Chao, do you think A Yao knows about the existence of her tattoo. "
Han Changmu was stunned.
He thought that the reason why Yao Yao looked strange several times was because he discovered something. At that time, he felt that he had no clue. Now when he compared the tattoo, all his doubts were solved. It turned out that all the sources were here.
He nodded and said slowly: "I think she should know, but the girl's family is not so glorious after all. When A Yao wakes up, don't ask her."
Xie Mengxia nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, don't worry, I won't ask."
Han Changmu was a little absent-minded, fearing that Xie Mengxia would see something, so he shouted outside. The barbarian guarding the door quickly opened the door and entered, bowing and standing quietly.
He solemnly ordered: "Remove these things. We need to take a rest. Don't come in and disturb us if you have nothing to do."
"I'm not tired, I don't need to rest." Xie Mengxia spoke hurriedly, and said with a smile to Han Changmu: "Jiuzhao, if you are tired, just take a nap. I am not tired at all. Let you, my subordinate, take me out. Let’s go shopping.”
Han Changmu had already expected that Xie Mengxia could not stand still, so he was waiting for him to speak, so he smiled and said: "That's good, Gaochang City is as lively and prosperous as Chang'an, and there are not so many rules and regulations, Ah Jiu, you stay with me Mr. Xie is taking a walk around the city, and I want to ensure Mr. Xie’s safety.”
