Chapter 1919 Sailing (24)(1/2)
Tianming's doubts are reasonable, and so is Shi Lan's judgment.
After the three of them looked at each other, Shao Yu asked Shi Lan, "Is there any way to further confirm your guess?"
"Hmm..." Shi Lan frowned and thought for a moment before replying, "Perhaps you can ask Dr. Duanmu about my brother's current situation. There may be clues."
Tianming smacked his lips and couldn't help but sigh, "Tsk, tsk...it looks like I have to make another trip."
"It's so far away that it's really inconvenient."
Shaoyu didn't waste any time and asked directly to the two of them, "Let's go now and have a night trip?"
Time is tight, so it would be better to solve it as soon as possible, so that they can spare their energy to do other things.
Tian Ming waved his hand without hesitation, "Let's take a walk. We should be able to arrive in time before midnight without delaying our sleep."
They both moved, and Shi Lan, the client, would certainly not refuse.
With their backs to the sun that had completely sunk below the horizon, the three of them quickly walked out of the city and rushed directly towards Duan Murong's medical center.
In order to arrive as quickly as possible, the three of them forced their way with Qinggong, and their speed was no worse than that of a horse-drawn carriage.
The only drawback is that it doesn't last long.
Even among the three of them, Tianming, who has the highest level of internal energy, can only say that his energy level is not bad, and it is really unsustainable to use Qinggong to travel.
Besides, the speed of the three of them depends on the slowest one, so there is no point in running faster in the morning.
And the one who runs the slowest... is of course Shao Yu, who serves as a human shield.
His internal strength is the worst, his light skill is also the worst, and his speed is more than one level slower than the other two.
Fortunately, his physical fitness is strong enough. If he is simply running, he is the fastest, which barely makes up for it.
The weather is not very good tonight. The thick clouds in the sky have blocked almost all the moonlight and starlight, and the earth is pitch black.
The three of them rode through the pitch-black night and took a completely unfamiliar road, stumbling along the way.
The three of them ran for almost three hours for a hundred miles, and it was already past midnight (twelve o'clock at night) when they arrived at the place.
After arriving at the place, the three of them realized a major mistake - they only thought of coming over as early as possible to ask about brother Shi Lan's condition, but they forgot that they came in the middle of the night and Duan Murong might have already rested.
No matter how anxious they were, they certainly couldn't forcefully wake up the sleeping doctor.
There is no real difference between asking for clarification tonight and asking for clarification tomorrow morning. They have to sleep anyway, and there is no way they can take any more action tonight.
Fortunately, the three of them did not face the worst situation, and Duan Murong was still awake.
She was originally a night owl, but now that she had a difficult patient named Yu Ziqi, she was even more busy day and night.
Looking at the three little ones who suddenly came back to disturb her, Duanmu Rong could almost have a layer of frost on her cold face:
"Why are you back?"
Tianming faced the other party's cold gaze, reluctantly moved forward with a shy face, and showed a very forced smile:
"We have something to ask."
"It's just..." Tianming was stuck at this point, and he didn't know how to describe their demands for a while.
Shi Lan grabbed the conversation and asked, "We want to know why my brother... didn't die?"
After talking about it, Shi Lan also paused for a moment, probably because he felt that his question was a bit outrageous.
Duan Murong's eyes immediately changed and turned into looking at a fool, "What, you really hope that he will die now?"
Shaoyu quickly explained with a smile, "No, no, Miss Rong, you misunderstood."
"We want to know how Shi Lan's brother survived the devastation of Yunzhongjun's elixir."
Shaoyu's words were much easier to listen to and easier to understand.
Tianming quickly followed Shao Yu's words and added, "Yes, that's what we want to ask."
Duan Murong's eyes swept over the three of them, and after a moment of silence, she still gave an answer:
"The answer to this question is complicated, and the condition of the patient's body is very strange...I have never seen it before."
"I can't give you a specific answer now, but it should be a combination of multiple factors that allowed him to persist until now."
"Many factors..." Tianming grasped the key point and further confirmed, "Is there anything special? What kind of special power, for example?"
"It seems that you know something." Duan Murong nodded and replied, "But I still can't give you a clear answer. I can only say that it is possible."
"The patient's condition... is indeed too complicated."
From the time the person was sent yesterday to midnight today, Duan Murong still had no clue. The reason was that Yu Ziqi's situation was too complicated.
The person is now a living dead. He is not dead and has no ability to move. However, his body has been completely eroded by the power of the medicine. On the one hand, he has lost his ability to control himself. On the other hand, his body is in a state of constant stimulation.
To translate it, it means that Yu Ziqi should theoretically have exhausted all the potential of his body due to the power of the elixir, and died of exhaustion, but he was still hanging on for breath.
Because he is not dead, the elixir is still exerting its force, but because the person is about to die, the stimulation of the drug's power actually helps him to survive to a certain extent.
At the same time, due to the interference of some inexplicable factors, the power of the medicine in the weakened state was suppressed, failing to further squeeze his body's potential.
All in all, Duan Murong still hasn't figured out what is the key factor that saved Yu Ziqi's life.
Although Duan Murong's answer was vague, for Tianming and the others, the unclear situation was enough to explain the problem in a sense.
Judging from what Shi Lan said in a nonchalant way, it's right that she can't figure out the specific situation of her brother.
The three of them thanked Duan Murong and hurried to the side to start discussing.
"It seems that your brother's situation is indeed very special." Shaoyu said first, "Your judgment should be correct."
Tianming raised the key question, "If Shi Lan guesses correctly and the key is indeed the identity of 'Yu Yuan Guard', what should we do next?"
After saying that, he and Shao Yu immediately turned their eyes to Shi Lan.
The two of them basically knew nothing about Guard Yu Yuan, and the answer could only be found from Shi Lan.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Shi Lan fell into silence and deep thought.
She hadn't considered this issue before, but now she was suddenly asked about it, and she found... yes, what should we do next?
Starting to save people as a guard of Yu Yuan was, in her opinion, starting from the ancient power carried by the guard of Yu Yuan. It was probably to further stimulate this power to completely remove the power of the elixir from her brother's body.
But... what to do?
The power of Yu Yuan's guard is very clear and yet vague among the Shushan tribe. It is an ancient and mysterious power passed down from generation to generation.
It seemed like he had said it, but it seemed like he didn't say anything at all.
After some hard thinking, Shi Lan turned her eyes to the east, as if she wanted to see clearly the situation on the sea through the dark night.
"Perhaps...we should start with the Fuso Sacred Tree." Shi Lan finally proposed a possibility.
Inside Shushan, there is another saying about the Yuyuan Guards - the Yuyuan Guards are responsible for protecting the sacred trees and are also protected by the sacred trees.
This made Shi Lan suspect that the power carried by Yu Yuan's guards might come from the Fuso sacred tree.
"Fuso sacred tree..." This answer made Tianming frown, not knowing what to say, "That thing is so big, what can we do?"
Shao Yu changed his mind and proposed an operation plan, "Take your brother over?"
Shi Lan didn't know what to do, but she chose to agree with Shao Yu's idea because it seemed like that was all they could do.
"This is the only way we can try now."
After hearing this, Tianming shrugged and proposed another plan, "Maybe we can break some branches and put them next to your brother."
"This..." Shi Lan twitched the corner of his mouth, not knowing how to answer the question.
At first glance, it seems that there is nothing wrong with the logic, but if you think about it carefully... it is hard to say that it is completely wrong, it is just a bit nonsense.
"What do you think?" Shi Lan finally chose to throw the question back to Tianming Shaoyu.
After the two of them looked at each other, Tianming first tentatively suggested, "How about we go break some branches and come back?"
Things should be done one by one, preferably from easy to difficult.
The difficulty of taking Yu Ziqi, who has completely lost the ability to move, to the mirage is obviously more than one level higher than getting on the boat and breaking off a few branches to come back. It is better to verify whether the latter is effective before considering it.
Shaoyu Shilan had no objection and everyone nodded.
"Okay!" Tianming snapped his fingers and finalized the plan, "Go to sleep now and return to Songhai early tomorrow morning."
………………
Early the next morning, inside Songhai City.
In just the past day, Songhai City has become noticeably more lively, with more and more people daring to take to the streets.
However, there are some special circumstances in Songhai today - some streets have been blocked, no one is allowed to approach, and the people who already lived here have also been temporarily expelled.
This is all in preparation for Ying Zheng's visit to Xiaoshengxian Manor.
In order to prevent assassination, the road from the General's Mansion to the foot of the Little Sage Village was completely blocked and cleared, and was patrolled by the army and secret guards.
These movements disturbed the people to some extent. Fortunately, the imperial court was very restrained and only blocked the streets. Everything else in the city was as usual. It also released news in advance to inform the people that it was only today.
Ying Zheng's visit to Xiaoshengxian Village attracted the attention of most interested people.
Some people are curious about this, some are worried about it, some are excited about it, and some are waiting to see the show.
