Chapter 1037: Ghost Soldiers Attack the City
"The person who brought the pen said he wanted blood from the palm of his hand." Zhou Shiyue looked at Lu Song, "But I don't know if he can be trusted."
He told Lu Song very frankly, "I wanted to try it on A Ling, but I was worried that injecting blood into this golden pen would be harmful to her, so I wondered if I could let someone else try it first..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Song understood what he meant.
Lu Song took the initiative to ask, "My Lord, then allow me to try."
"Are you willing? If it's bad..."
"Then I am willing to give it a try for my senior sister. Your Majesty, this pen may also be a magical weapon."
If it is really a magic weapon, it would be a treasure to the eldest sister. It can be used to draw talismans.
These people want a magic pen the most, so that the talismans drawn on it will be twice as effective.
"Then you try it." Zhou Shiyue did not refuse.
"Aoki, look at him." He said to Aoki again.
Upon hearing this, Qingmu immediately picked up a few amulets and stood next to Lu Song.
If there is really something unusual, he will smear the amulets all over Master Lu first!
Zhou Shiyue: “…”
Will this work?
Lu Song cut his left palm, but he still had to draw talismans on his right hand, so he couldn't hurt it. He didn't have the cultivation of the senior sister, so he could recover quickly after the palm was cut.
After his palm started bleeding, he held the pen lightly.
The moment he touched the pen, Lu Song felt the pen become hot.
But before he could react, he couldn't feel it anymore. Nothing happened next, and the pen didn't react in his hand.
Madam Sheng San and the retired emperor had already come over and were watching from the side.
“Your Highness,” Lu Song felt it again, “The pen was instantly hot at first, there must be some talisman melted inside! This is a refined magic pen!”
"But this is definitely not mine, and I can't trigger the power of this pen."
He told Zhou Shiyue, "I don't think there's anything wrong with the pen."
He wiped the pen clean and placed it in front of Zhou Shiyue with both hands.
Zhou Shiyue took the pen and walked to Yin Yunting's bedside.
"How is Junior Brother Yin?"
Si Zhen sighed. "Amitabha."
"Not awake?"
"Not only is he not awake, but he seems to be very weak. Donor Jin Wang, if this continues, will Donor Yin go to see the Buddha?"
Sizhen was really worried.
Zhou Shiyue: "No." He paused, "Because he is not a Buddhist disciple."
Sizhen: “…”
Zhou Shiyue looked at Yin Yunting and saw that he showed no signs of waking up.
"What did the doctor say?"
"The doctor just keeps sighing." Si Zhen also sighed.
Qing Mu continued, "The doctor said something about blood stasis. The injury on the head may have damaged some meridians and blood vessels. It's a good thing that he's still alive. I prescribed some medicine and have already given it to Master Yin once."
"However, he can only swallow a little bit. Master Yin doesn't know how to swallow medicine."
If you can't swallow it, there's no point in forcing it down your throat.
Madam Sheng San was shocked. "Isn't this like a living dead?"
"Ayue, it seems that Xiao Yin can only be saved if Master Ling wakes up." The emperor also said.
Zhou Shiyue was silent for a moment.
"I'll ask Qinglin to bring Elder Yin over to take a look later."
The situation has become like this now. Instead of guarding against Yin Jingting, it would be better to let him come and see Yin Yunting. What if Yin Jingting can come up with some way to save people?
He took the pen and went back to the next room, sat on the bed, and held Lu Zhaoling's hand.
Looking at Lu Zhaoling who was still motionless, Zhou Shiyue's eyes felt slightly hot.
"A Ling, can you please wake up?"
It's been almost a year, and he hasn't seen her like this.
Even though it was the first time they met, and she was obviously so badly injured, she was still able to pull him up and said confidently that she could save him.
Even though she fainted at that time, she was still breathing.
But now Lu Zhaoling was lying here, her breathing was so shallow that it was almost inaudible, as if she would never be able to open her eyes.
Zhou Shiyue had never felt so panicked before.
However, he seemed calmer than ever that day.
No one could see that his heart was like trapped in magma and was suffering.
Qingyin and Qingbao looked at the prince, glanced at each other, and quietly retreated behind the screen.
When he walked out, Qingbao's tears suddenly burst out.
Qingyin was trying hard to hold back her tears, but when she saw Qingbao's tears, she couldn't hold back her tears either.
When will the lady wake up?
Now the young lady is their backbone, and they will be very panicked if she doesn't wake up.
It seemed like they had made an agreement before that no one should show any sadness. It might be because Lu Zhaoling was usually cheerful, and she wanted them to be strong and optimistic when encountering problems.
Therefore, they always felt that they should be optimistic and that the young lady would definitely get better soon.
However, a day and a night had passed and the young lady still hadn't woken up.
"A Ling, I'm not sure whether this pen is good or bad for you, so please wake up as soon as possible and see it with your own eyes, okay?"
Zhou Shiyue leaned close to Lu Zhaoling and spoke in a low voice.
"If you wake up soon, I won't have to try it anxiously. But if you don't wake up tomorrow, I will scratch your palm and try it."
If this sum of money can really nourish the owner's soul, what if? What if it is good for Lu Zhaoling?
He must try it.
Zhou Shiyue stayed beside Lu Zhaoling and said a lot of things in a low voice.
And that night, at Yulan Pass, some people said that ghost soldiers were attacking the city.
General Qiu met Lieutenant General Li and found that Lieutenant General Li was already unconscious due to fever. But there were no more medicinal materials here.
"Where are the herbs from before?"
"General, a few days ago, many people in the city caught a cold, and some of them came to Lieutenant General Li for help. Lieutenant General Li couldn't bear to see the people suffer, so he distributed the medicinal materials to them." said a soldier.
"Besides, we have been providing porridge to the people for five days. We share the small amount of food with the people, so now we are out of food..."
General Qiu almost cursed.
They are the soldiers defending the city!
Although the people are very important, it is still a little more important to keep them before the last step!
If all of them fall, who will protect the people?
He immediately ordered his men to hurry back to Subei City, "Tell the Second Master to find a way to send a few more carts of food and medicines, no matter what! Quickly!"
"Yes!"
"General! The torches outside the city are lit again! This time they are closer to the city gate!" A soldier came down from the city wall and reported quickly.
"go!"
General Qiu immediately hurried back to the city wall.
He heard the soldiers saying, "Is it a ghost?"
"Ghost soldiers and generals?"
"If ghosts really come to attack the city, can we defend it?"
The soldiers were talking among themselves, and they all looked a little nervous and uneasy.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
General Qiu shouted angrily, then strode forward and looked outside the city.
The night is dark.
A few hundred meters outside the city, there were a few torches lit in clusters.
