10, Chapter 10
The princess followed Master Shi Xin for more than ten miles in a light carriage.
A monk does not ride in a carriage or horse. A pair of straw sandals, a tin staff and a small baggage are all his possessions.
The princess observed him carefully along the way, and was very surprised how the prince, who had made great achievements in the war in the evening, managed to put aside all the prosperity and return to the original appearance of life. He did not have to spend money, and relied on alms all the way. The people who gave alms were not rich, but for monks
, with the simplest trust. If a bowl of thin porridge or a few steamed buns were delivered to him, he would not be picky. He would put his hands together very piously and recite Amitabha. Then he would walk a while and find a place.
Sitting under the shade of a big tree, chanting sutras and eating according to the strict requirements of Buddhism.
If you look at him at that time, he was definitely not as dusty as an ordinary traveling monk after sleeping in the open air. His robes were always clean and there was no dirt on his face. Although the princess was reluctant, she had to admit that he was an outstanding person in all aspects.
, when he was a general, he commanded the heroes, left home and turned into a grain of sand, drifting in the wind, with sharp edges and corners. If you don’t believe it, if you knead it, the invisible details will not lose its sharpness. If you knead harder, you may get cuts.
your fingers.
The princess let out a long sigh and said, "I am determined to fulfill my great ambition of becoming a monk, but I won't stand in my way. This is actually very inappropriate."
"Your Highness has given up?" Youyu nodded, "That's fine, let's pack up and go home."
Youyu is more in favor of escaping from the battlefield. After all, the opponent's identity and means are extraordinary. Ordinary people can't feel how strong a person's aura is. She, who has a little knowledge of martial arts, can just get closer and "
"Thousands of cold hairs are on the waist." Her sixth sense told her that this person is not easy to mess with, so it would be a good choice to give up here.
But the princess cannot do as she pleases and must take the overall situation into consideration. "You can come when you want to come and leave when you want to. I have thought about it. If I don't succeed, I will become a benevolent person. If the King of Chu does not return to secular life, I will find a home next to Bodhidharma Temple."
I became a monk in a nunnery. He became a monk and I became a nun. Maybe there will be a chance to develop in the future."
Chuo Chuo said "Wow", "Did His Highness fall in love with him? You can even think of such a stupid trick!"
The princess rubbed her temples, "There is no other way. In this way, I can be regarded as the first person to become a nun at the end of her life. In the future, it will be recorded in the history books, "Princess Shanshan and Wei Shi are in love with Chu.
King, if you ask for it and don’t have to become a nun, you can see that you have a name and a surname."
The name and surname are true, but they are a bit different from the facts. Youyu asked: "Your Highness, don't you want to lose face?"
The princess was leaning against the side of the car, the sunlight from the window gently smearing her eyebrows. The princess's skin revealed a texture as delicate as silk satin. She raised her hand and wiped the face, "History is written by the victors. Do you think it will be the end of the world?"
Will the historian record that 'Princess Shanshan resolutely became a monk to resist her fate'?" The princess smiled boredly, "Things like face are not that important."
Of course, reaching this point shows that Qian Donkey has run out of skills. In order to avoid this tragic situation from happening, he still has to work hard now.
Youyu drove a carriage and quietly came around the road that Master Shi Xin must pass. The princess picked up the snake bag and jumped out of the car. She looked back and said: "You guys go farther away. There are acquaintances here, so I can't let go."
She was subconsciously reserved in front of acquaintances, but not necessarily in front of Xiao Sui. Anyway, she was seduced by order, and she liked the way the master couldn't get rid of him, and he couldn't do anything about her.
The princess was waiting eagerly on the roadside. When he came, he heard the sound of the copper ring on the tin staff. To be honest, they had been following him. With his many years of combat experience, he would not have missed it. The princess was still a little afraid of him.
, firstly, he is a wok maker, and secondly, he is also older than her. What makes her feel confident is not the Queen Mother’s secret order, nor her own identity, but just the clear rules and precepts of Buddhism.
"The Dharma is vast, let the believing women get what they want." The princess squatted on the roadside and muttered silently, "It doesn't matter if there is one less monk in Buddhism, but if there is one less King of Chu, I will suffer."
The weather in mid-spring gradually started to get hotter. At the end of the loess road in the afternoon, there were scorching waves heated by the air. On the other side of the scorching waves, a figure in white clothes and sandals and wearing a white gauze hat finally appeared. The princess felt a wave of excitement in her heart.
Excited, he tried hard to suppress his excitement and hurriedly opened the cloth bag containing the snake.
The princess herself does not follow common sense. She is afraid of insects, but not snakes. Shanshan produces a kind of pearl snake, which has a pearlescent color and can grow to the thickness of the wrist. The princess once raised one and kept it happily for half a month.
, in the end, because I took it out to bask in the sun and did not take it back in time, it was burned to death by the strong sun in June.
As for the thin green snake, its toxicity is negligible. She also knew that the snake was beautiful. The princess never held any prejudice against beautiful things. She even used her hands and feet lightly when she turned the mouth of the bag upside down to pour the snake.
With a "pop" sound, the snake fell to the ground. The princess looked down and saw that the snake's body was twisted into a ball. Why was it not green?
The princess was a little confused. She had clearly agreed that it was a thin green snake. Did she get the wrong one when she got in the car? Was it transferred by someone from the palace?
Anyway, one thing is certain, this is a strong snake. The darkness in the bag did not make it dizzy. As soon as it touched the ground, it immediately found its direction, raised its head and planned to escape into the grass.
How could the princess let it go? Relief was about to come. Without the snake at the critical moment, it would be impossible to talk about taking drugs and healing later. So she had quick eyesight and stepped on the snake's tail. She was still scared. After all, this
Snakes are highly venomous. If Master Shi Xin cannot cure the snake venom, wouldn't her life be hanging by a thread?
As a result, just when she hesitated, the snake twisted around like lightning and bit her ankle. The princess was stunned. She didn't expect that the plan went so smoothly. Before she was ready, everything unexpectedly happened.
happened!
After the snake bit the person, it disappeared under the grass. The princess didn't know whether it was because she was frightened or because she was poisoned by the snake's venom. She swayed and fell down.
Shi Xin was wearing a white robe, and finally passed by him, and found that it was her. Her expression was calm, and she was used to her inexplicable appearance every time.
The princess greeted weakly: "Master, we meet again."
The most amiable person among Buddhists, he bowed and said: "Although the weather is warm, the donor cannot sit on the floor. Please get up quickly."
After he finished speaking, he planned to leave. The princess felt dizzy for a while. She leaned up and covered her chest in a weak manner. She gasped softly: "Master, I didn't mean to sit on the floor. I was bitten by a snake and couldn't get up."
.”
As soon as these words came out, he stopped dead in his tracks, but given her previous erratic behavior, the master was still wary of her.
"The donor was bitten by a snake? Where is the injury?"
Princess Shi Shiran lifted the corners of her skirt and exposed her ankles.
In my original imagination, the slender calves were as tender as bamboo shoots, and the area bitten by the snake was slightly red. Overall, they were extremely beautiful and delicious. But who knew that the venom of this bungar snake was very fast and severe?
The two tooth cavities were bloody and red, and the surrounding skin showed pebbled lines. In the blink of an eye, the entire ankle was completely black.
When the princess looked at it, golden flowers suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and she burst into tears: "My leg...what's wrong with my leg? Doesn't it need to be amputated?"
Shi Xin thought she was playing tricks again, but when she saw the injury with her own eyes, she knew she couldn't fake it.
"Amitabha, I'm offended." He said, throwing down his tin staff and baggage and coming over to check. The edges of the wound were hard to the touch, unlike ordinary snake venom.
The princess felt it was difficult to breathe, but fortunately she was still conscious. When she saw him tearing off a piece of his robe and pinning the upper part of her calf forcefully, she took two breaths and said, "Master, the snake's venom travels too fast... It's too late.
Quickly take drugs to heal my wounds!"
Even now, the evil spirit still persists. Shi Xin ignored her at all and just lowered his eyes and asked her: "What kind of snake was bitten by you?"
The princess was so angry that she said, "I can't name him. He's black and white. You can tell by his appearance that he has a bad temper."
He lowered his head, frowned slightly with his thick eyebrows, and said to himself: "Yinhuan..."
The princess said: "Don't worry about what kind of snake it is. Isn't the normal treatment procedure not to poison the blood and then bandage it with herbal medicine? Master, if you don't hurry up, I will poison my whole body... Oops, my chest is so tight and I am gasping for breath."
I can’t get angry anymore.”
Shi Xin felt her pulse and raised his eyes to look at her complexion. She was poisoned by the most powerful snake venom and was still able to speak so many words. This shows that the poison may not endanger her life.
She didn't know that there was a kind of person in the world who was born insensitive to poisons. It was as if his body lacked a certain sensory nerve. Without knowing it, his body was able to decompose the toxins on its own, and finally caused a real reaction.
Probably just a small part.
For example, when she took the medicine for Mid-Autumn Festival last time, Xi Guan would not be merciful and must give her a sufficient amount. As a result, after she diluted it herself, she was just very thirsty in the middle of the night, and she was confused and a little confused. It was not necessary to get a medicine.
Men make antidotes. This time, the poison of the snake venom accumulates under the skin around the wound in the shortest possible time. A small amount travels up, causing shortness of breath, but it is not fatal. The current treatment is nothing more than cleaning the wound. Even if you don’t ask, it will not be fatal.
It will subside on its own in the last two hours.
The princess looked at him eagerly, "Master, what are you still hesitating about?"
Shi Xin said nothing, washed her wound with water, and then put a pill into her palm.
The princess looked down at the pill and said in a broken voice: "Master, don't be kidding me. I was poisoned by snake venom, not a cold. If you don't give me the drug, just give me a pill. Is this the Great Luo elixir?"
Shi Xin He Shi said: "This medicine is good for Qi. If you take one pill, it will not do any harm to the donor."
"Yi Qi?" the princess became more and more puzzled, "Wuji Baifeng Pills?"
Shi Xin looked at her as if she were a monster, "Qing Xin Da Zao Pill. This is a medicine always prepared by the monks of Bodhidharma Temple. Every monk must carry it with him when he travels. In the opinion of the poor monk, the donor's injury is not serious. Take one pill."
Take some medicine and rest for a while, and you will be cured naturally."
"It's not serious?" The princess felt that she had been fooled. "I was bitten by the most venomous snake in the world. If I don't get treatment within two hours, I will definitely die. Does it mean that you think I am always troublesome and annoying you?
, so you plan to face death without saving anything, so as to avoid future troubles forever?"
The princess was frightened by her own speculation, and suddenly realized that this situation was not impossible. This man had killed many people before becoming a monk. If he was really pushed to that extent, multiple lives would be nothing. Anyway, this wound was not his.
Bite.
So she stared at him in horror. He was indeed silent. The princess felt that something was wrong, "Why don't you speak?"
Shi Xin said: "It's useless to argue, it's better not to say anything."
The princess's big eyes suddenly filled with tears, "Are you really not going to save me again? After all, we have slept in the same bed, or do you hold grudges against me for being disrespectful to you, so that once I die, I will die without any evidence?"
Don’t mention that embarrassing thing again! He sighed, “The donor will not die.”
The princess said: "I don't believe it, I obviously have symptoms of poisoning."
Shi Xin moved his gaze to the midair and stared at the blue sky, as if this way he could let go of everything and stay calm.
"If the donor doesn't believe it, look back after two hours. Anyway, the poor monk has no better way to treat him. If the donor returns to the west after two hours, the poor monk will be responsible for letting the donor bury him in peace."
God, what kind of black-hearted monk is this? He would rather dig a hole to bury her than take snake venom for her. But is he so wary and resistant, does it mean that he also doubts himself and is afraid that he will not be able to control himself and do something?
?
The princess was worried about the fact that she had been poisoned by snake venom, but the thoughts in her mind were overwhelming, and she almost laughed at the thought at the end.
"Then I will believe you once and wait for two more hours." The princess said solemnly, grabbing his hand, "You are not allowed to leave, just watch me here. If I can't survive, you can save me immediately."
Chapter completed!
