Chapter 678 A great year!
Chapter 678 A great year!
Thousands of flags fell.
Silence fell.
Meng Qiang put down the hand that was pressing on his shoulder, cursed, and sheathed the sword with a clang.
The doctors from the Imperial Hospital waited for a long time and took people from both sides to the hospital for treatment.
Liang Qu was still unable to move and could no longer attend the next court meeting, so he asked the Tianyu Guards to surround him, and pretended to be nothing, and blended into the team under the pretense of going there to check.
The envoys from various countries were discussing the matter in a noisy manner.
Although it was not surprising that Beiting mobilized a large army and sent an envoy to compete in martial arts on this festive occasion, the two countries had a long-standing grudge and it was normal for them to disgust each other, but they were actually suppressed in the Dashun Hall, especially in the fourth round, when they voluntarily admitted defeat.
What a beautiful fight!
Unbelievably beautiful!
The first match was extremely fierce.
The third battle is bloody and brave.
The fourth game is to win without fighting!
Neat.
No matter what Beiting's considerations were, he probably suffered a bitter consequences!
The Celestial Empire is indeed a country with extraordinary heritage.
Taiyueling played "Taihe" again.
The imperial pen was full of vigor and energy. Holding the wolf-brush in his hand, he thought for a while, then wrote the entire article in a fluent and graceful manner, until the end, with silver hooks and iron strokes.
"The beginning of the year is the beginning of a new era. All things are new. On this day, the emperor receives maps and books from all corners of the world, accepts tributes from all nations, comforts the Chinese at home, and appeases the barbarians abroad!"
……
Too hospital.
Incense smoke was wafting out of the incense burner.
The morning dew ripples the water in the Ze Ding.
Liang Qu was shirtless, with his hands soaked in the medicine, and fell on the small bed, feeling the doctor's massage, half asleep and half awake.
Wang Chao, the Tianyu Guard with a broken arm, was being bandaged by a doctor. The severe pain made him grimace, his cheeks twitching constantly, and he looked up at the sky, trying to find some topic to divert attention.
"Great doctor, the Great Tiger Hunter has survived even without having his brain pierced, his heart pierced, or his throat cut. His life force is so tenacious, why can't he regenerate his limbs? Why does he have to take rare and powerful medicine?
An earthworm can survive even if it is cut in two, and a gecko can survive even if its tail is cut off. Are humans really inferior to tiny reptiles?"
Liang Qu tilted his head when he heard that. He had studied medicine for half a year and was also curious.
The doctor changed the gauze and thought about it.
"Have you ever seen a magnet, sir?"
"Of course I have. I always use a compass when I travel far away, and I loved playing with it when I was a kid."
"What would happen if a whole piece of magnet fell to the ground and broke into two pieces?"
"Well……"
Liang Qu asked: "Will the magnetic force on the fracture surface be completely opposite?"
"Correct." The doctor nodded. "When a magnet falls to the ground, it breaks into two pieces. Both halves still have their poles, so they become two magnets. Neither side is aware of its own lack, and they cannot be put together again.
The human body is full of mysteries and has many similarities. Many things cannot be seen or touched, but they exist just like the magnetic force of a magnet.
If an arm is broken, the body will seal its own meridians and blood vessels in order to continue to form a flawless body and prolong life. This is an irreversible instinct, just like people eating, drinking, and reproducing.
No matter how good the elixir is, it takes time to heal. In this moment, the closure has already begun, just like a magnet that has been broken into pieces, with two opposite poles. If you reattach the broken arm, it will never be perfect, so it leaves the so-called hidden injury, which is unbearable on cloudy and rainy days. If you don't want this to happen, you can only regenerate. "
"Then why is it that regeneration becomes more difficult as the realm becomes higher?"
The doctor washed his hands, took out a delicate steel knife and flicked it gently.
"To regenerate, it has to be like forging a compass fish. It has to return to its original state and be recast in the furnace. However, the higher the realm and strength, the higher the furnace temperature required for recasting.
Just like ice, it will melt into water when placed under the sun, but copper and iron need good charcoal to be smelted, and various precious metals must be smelted with flint and a large cauldron. "
"I see." The great doctor's explanation was easy to understand. Wang Chao understood it and sighed slightly. "I did take advantage of him, but I didn't win as beautifully as Liang Hengwei. If we really want to fight alone, I'm one step behind him."
In the imperial capital, the Holy Emperor is currently fighting for his country.
Not to mention a broken arm, even if the person was chopped in half on the spot with his intestines scattered all over the floor, it would not be difficult to save him. We can even ensure that there won't be too many sequelae, and he can be taken care of for a while and enjoy everything he eats.
In contrast, Beiting had only a small delegation of more than a hundred people.
Even though the team has doctors and life-saving pills, the gap in logistics is still huge.
In addition, there is a master watching over them in the field, so there is no need to worry about their lives and they can do whatever they want. The mentality of both sides going on stage is completely different.
But he didn't have Liang Qu's ability to win in a grand and fair manner.
Meng Qiang denied: "Winning is winning, how can it be cheap or not? If you change someone else, can you pierce his heart and cut his throat by sacrificing a hand?"
"Yes, victory is not certain, victory depends on people."
"His Majesty!"
The eunuchs filed in and stood on both sides.
Everyone supported themselves on the bed and stood up.
The Holy Emperor raised his hand and said, "Don't move. Lie down and talk! Lu Dao!"
The eunuch walked out quickly with a tray full of purses and red paper.
"Red envelope!"
Everyone was happy.
There should have been red envelopes at the Yuanzheng court meeting, but several people were lying in the Imperial Hospital, so naturally they missed it. Unexpectedly, the Holy Emperor thought of them and sent them specially. Each person received a purse and a big red flower with the word "good luck" written on it.
Open the purse.
There is one pure gold carp and one pure silver carp, both the size of a thumb. They are not light in weight, but they may not be very valuable.
But.
New Year, New Atmosphere, Let's have a good start. But Liang Qu looked up and found that everyone got something different.
Zhang Shaofan picked it up: "Mine is a turtle!"
Li Bingzhong poured it out: "Mine is a toad!"
"Hey, mine is a tiger."
"I'll trade you a toad for a tiger."
"Don't change!"
Li Bingzhong looked up and said, "Eunuch Lu, do you have any other purses?"
“That’s all I prepared.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Meng Qiang was overjoyed. He immediately hung the purse around his waist and looked at the Holy Emperor again.
Long wait.
"Captain Meng, what are you looking forward to?"
Meng Qiang was startled, and said thoughtfully: "Your Majesty, we have fought against Beiting nine times and won nine times..."
"There are three wins in total. Where did the nine wins come from?"
"..."
"Haha, today's work was done well!" The Holy Emperor patted Meng Qiang on the shoulder, "The merits are worthy of the rewards. Those who played will receive three great merits, and those who did not play will receive one great merit.
In addition, Meng Qiang and Wang Chao were promoted one level, and Liang Qu was granted the rank of fourth-level cavalry captain.
Everyone will soak in the Class C Tianshui Pool once, Liang Qu for three hours, Meng Qiang and Wang Chao for two and a half hours, and the rest for two hours. Each person who takes part will be given an additional drop of Tiansui lotion.
From now on, you are allowed to take annual leave until the end of the first lunar month!"
Meng Qiang was overjoyed.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After receiving the reward, everyone relaxed their expressions and leaned back on their chairs or beds.
Busy for a long time.
Isn't it for this moment?
Comfortable~
"Have a good rest and don't miss the dinner tonight!"
"Yes!"
The battles come and go like the wind.
The doctor relit a stick of incense.
"What are Tianshui Pool and Tiansui Lotion?" Liang Qu asked.
"Good stuff." Wang Chao said, "Two treasures condensed from the Tianshan Earth Vein, the best for strengthening the foundation and tempering the body. Have you ever drunk the Pulse Jade Liquid? That is made from the first-class Tianshui Pool Liquid mixed with other treasures. The Tiansui Emulsion is even more extraordinary. You can't touch it at ordinary times. Anyway, you will know once you drink it. It's a great reward!"
Liang Qu felt relieved.
It can temper the body, so it must be good.
And using "one drop" as the measure word shows how precious it is.
"I have accumulated more than a dozen great achievements. It's just right that I can go to the imperial capital someday to use them all up, so as to avoid wasting time going back and forth..."
Not long.
A small box was delivered. When it was opened, the aroma of medicine hit the face. Inside was a purple pill with a lifelike scorpion tail embellished on the surface.
"Scorpion Tail Resurrection Pill!"
Just by listening to the name, you can tell who it is for. Wang Chao soaked in the potion and swallowed the pill. After a few breaths, his whole body turned red and a tingling sensation spread throughout his body.
The doctor unwrapped the gauze and saw small buds growing on the broken arm...
Liang Qu looked twice, his eyelids felt heavy. After killing the dragon, he was exhausted both mentally and physically. Having received the reward, he was completely relaxed and fell asleep in a daze.
The Imperial Hospital is quiet and leisurely.
External activities never stop, like a stone thrown into the sea, causing ripples.
The fight took place in the morning.
At noon, the news spread throughout the imperial capital.
The Dashun Tianyu Guards defeated the Beiting barbarians, and Xingyi Baron Liang Qu shot and killed the reincarnation of the barbarian king.
The streets were filled with cheers and firecrackers.
The well-informed opera troupe set up the stage and rehearsed the new play intensively.
The storyteller would simply put together a few elements and make up a story on the spot, just to add something new to the story.
If someone asked who Xingyi Man was, it goes without saying that he was a wandering boy returning home to visit his relatives.
Otherwise, how could we not have seen a 120-foot column of blood rising into the sky?
Wait until evening, and the Holy Emperor will issue a special order.
It was a year of great prosperity, with annual holidays extended to the 15th day of the first lunar month, and officials attended court on the third day.
Everyone can enjoy the joy!
There was cheering outside the courtyard all day long.
Otter did three somersaults in a row and then used a set of monkey claws.
The fat catfish rolled over and spit out water arrows.
"What was the big commotion during the last court session?"
On the banks of Jishuitan River.
Xu Zishuai fell into deep thought.
