Chapter 310: 【hypocritical! 】
Chapter 310 [False! 】
A rapid cough came from the room. The sound was like a bellow with a tear in the mouth, which sounded full of a sense of rundown and weakness.
Standing outside the room, several court attendants in linen robes bowed their heads nervously, seeming panic.
In the hallway, only those palace warriors in gold armor still stood tall.
The rushing footsteps came from the corridor, and the court medical officer in white trot trotting on the waiter's welcome. A moment later, another priest and magician from the church also hurried up.
In this huge palace, on the candlesticks with thick arms all around, all the candlelight seems to be concentrated on the huge bed in the middle of the room! On the gorgeous big bed, made of jewelry and gold, in a thick soft bed like a cloud, the most honorable old man in the empire was breathing hard.
In the thick curtain, his figure was a little fuzzy, and on the high bedposts around him were some spells depicting strange symbols.
Emperor Cantos' face was as pale as the dead, his cheeks had been deeply sunk, and his pale face was still a strangely blue.
He looked thinner, with a gorgeous robe over his body, but the wrists that came out of his sleeves. But like dead bones! His original majestic body was just under that skeleton ...
The emperor's face was painful. It seemed that every breath became a great burden to him, and the severe pain afflicted him.
"Take ... candles, candles ..." The emperor vomited ambiguously from his mouth, "All, light up! All!" After screaming hard, he muttered in a low voice: "It's too dark here ... too dark ... like a grave ... too dark. "
Several close servants quickly found candles, lit them on the surrounding tables, and the candlelight of dozens of huge candles, but the emperor still seemed dissatisfied, and continued to shake his head, muttering: "It's too dark ... too dark ... like a grave ... "
Finally, after almost hundreds of candles were lit, hundreds of candlelights beating, while bringing light, it seemed that they could not dispel the cold odor of the room.
The court medical officer first walked to the emperor. He carefully supported the emperor to lie down, then unbuttoned his robe with fingers, and reached out and pressed the emperor's skinny chest, and then carefully He choked the emperor's wrist and neck, checked the frequency of his heartbeat, opened the emperor's eyelid, and finally took out a thin needle from the sleeve, and gently pierced the emperor's chest skin. One point, Qin dripped a drop of blood.
The medical officer quickly dropped the tip of the blood drop into a transparent bottle, which originally contained some transparent liquid, but when the blood drop was submerged. Suddenly, the original pure and transparent liquid suddenly rippled, and it turned into a light blue quickly.
The medical officer's complexion became extremely difficult to look. He looked at the emperor lying on the soft couch, hesitated, his lips moved, but he didn't seem to know how to open his teeth.
At this time, finally, the magician and priest arrived.
As soon as the court magician in the red robe came in, all the servants in the room were relieved. Obviously, this court magician is a candidate that everyone trusts.
The palace magician quickly walked to the emperor's side, but just glanced at the emperor quickly, and quickly took out a small wooden box from the sleeve, opened the box, and gently twisted it out with from the inside. A turquoise green leaf came, this leaf is so green and tender, crystal clear, slender and long, looks as if full of vigor and vitality!
The magician looked calm, took the leaves to the emperor's mouth, and gently squeezed the emperor's chin, helping the emperor Cantos to open his mouth. That leaf was put into the mouth of the emperor ...
The leaves were laid on the emperor's tongue, and soon, a "snoring" sound was issued, and a gentle mist emanated from the emperor's mouth, as if that leaf began to melt away at a rapid speed!
The emperor was sent down to lie down, and in his mouth, the sound of "嗤嗤" continued to come.
Finally, a swift, faint stream of light quickly emerged from the emperor's face, and then swiftly flowed throughout his body.
A miracle has appeared!
The cheeks that were originally skinny and deeply sunk, but at this moment the muscles were suddenly full of miracles. The original grayish grayish complexion turned red again!
The difficult breathing, like a broken bellow, finally calmed down, and the disturbing cough finally calmed down!
The emperor finally opened his eyes, and there was a touch of relief in his eyes. He looked at the court magician beside him and sighed softly: "Thank you, Lord Ayipur, you can always save me from fire and water. . "
The court magician didn't say anything to the emperor, but just turned to look at the priest behind him and nodded at him.
The priest came over, saluting the emperor, and then slowly said, "Your Majesty, please lie down and let me start casting spells for you."
Then, the priest took a small bottle out of his arms and poured out some holy water gently. Twisted a few drops, spilled on the forehead of the emperor, was about to chant a spell ...
"Wait, wait!"
The court doctor's face finally changed. He snatched it up and grabbed the priest's sleeve: "Wait a minute!"
The court doctor looked anxiously: "No! It can't be this way anymore!"
The emperor opened his eyes and looked at the court doctor, frowning, "What's wrong?"
The medical officer looked a little hesitant, but for a moment, as if making a decision, looked up, stared directly at the emperor's eyes, and exclaimed: "Your Majesty! You can no longer use magic treatment! This method is fundamental It's not helping you recover, it's ... it's hurting you at all !!! "
The emperor frowned, his face sinking.
"Stupid guy, get out of here!"
The court magician smiled coldly and waved his sleeve gently. At once the court doctor's body fell back out, and when he fell to the ground, two servants next to him hurried up to lift him up.
"Stupid ?! You are stupid !!" The court doctor's face was absolutely determined, and after breaking away from the court attendant's support, he struggled to stand up and pointed at the court magician: "You are simply murder. This is the murder of Your Majesty !!! You can't continue like this !!! "
"Murder" is a gift that comes out of the mouth of the medical officer. Suddenly, in the corner of the room, several palace warriors appeared silently. The middle-aged man who had always been silent, also appeared in the corner like a shadow.
The court medical officer gritted his teeth, took off the hat on his head, threw it on the ground, and threw himself on his knees, and shouted to the Emperor Cantos on the bed: "Your Majesty! Really can't go on like this These sticks are simply deceiving you !!! "
As he said, he held up his bottle high: "Did you see the color of the water in this bottle! Once your blood is stained, it will turn blue! This means that you have been poisoned deeply It's deep !!! "
"Nonsense." The palace magician shook his head and stared at the medical officer with a sneer: "You incompetent guys, can't cure Your Majesty's disease. But the glory of magic can dispel His Majesty's pain! Your ignorant mind cannot understand The mystery of magic, but insulted with these abominable words ... "
"I really don't know magic !!" The medical officer stubbornly looked up at the magician and said loudly: "Maybe! In the eyes of a noble magician like you, a person like me is indeed a small existence! You only need to I can easily rob me of this humble life by tapping my fingertips !!! But I am a physician! Although I do n’t know magic, but I do understand the human body! I understand the greatness of magic !!! I admit the greatness of magic And mystery! But ... magic, after all, is not almighty !!! It is impossible to solve all problems !!! "
With sweaty head, he moved forward with his knees, kneeling in front of the bed, facing Emperor Cantos on the bed, and said loudly: "Your Majesty! I am incompetent, but in the face of your serious illness, I cannot use medicine to You dispel these diseases ... but this is not medical incompetence, but ... there is no one thing in the world that can solve all problems! Your disease can no longer be solved by medicine, but the same can not be solved by magic! "
"Can't solve it?" The court magician sneered: "If you're not blind, you should see Your Majesty's complexion is much better now."
"Yes indeed!" The medical officer cried out, "Yes! But this is a deception! It is a ... a murder !!!"
He took out a booklet from his arms and said loudly, "Your Majesty! As your medical officer, my duties also include recording your condition! From this noble magician's first treatment for you Time, all the records after that, I have recorded here! A few months ago, the first time he used magic to dispel the pain for you, that time, the effect of the treatment lasted for half a month, Your illness relapsed! Then, the second magic treatment lasted only ten days! The third treatment lasted only seven days! The fourth one was four days! To this day, you will have almost every day Only one treatment !!! The effectiveness of each magic treatment is getting shorter and shorter! But this magician. The magic leaves that you take, the dose is getting larger and larger! I remember the first time During the treatment, he only gave you a quarter of a leaf! Today, even taking a whole leaf can only stop your pain for less than a day! "
He dropped the booklet on the ground and pointed to the pastor next to him, saying loudly: "Even the most ordinary person knows a truth: Healing cannot be used multiple times! Because healing is not Really restore human body damage! In fact, just use this spell to stimulate the rapid growth of the human body's function, self-healing !!! But this spell, used more often, is actually harmful to the human body! Instead It will consume a lot of human energy! This simple truth, let alone the noble magician, even a magic apprentice should know such common sense! But this magician will allow the priest to give You perform healing ... isn't it murder? ''
Emperor Cantos sat on the bed, his face was calm, it seemed that he could not see any fluctuations, but in those eyes, as if he did not know what kind of light flashed ...
The palace magician's face was very ugly, staring at the medical officer, and angrily said: "Ignorant! I made the magic potion, how do you know!"
"I don't know! But I'm a medical officer!" The brave medical officer exclaimed: "No matter how magical magic is, it's impossible to reverse the rules of the world! Or ... it can be done, but it doesn't seem to be What you can do at this level! Although I do n’t know your magic potion, I know at least medicine! I know what is good for the human body, what is harmful to the human body! At least ... what is poisonous, I I can still tell! "
Speaking, there was a faint flash of light in his eyes, and he stiffened his head: "Your Majesty! I know you are anxious to get rid of this painful disease, so you have gradually stopped trusting medicine! But please believe that magic is Almighty! It is impossible to solve all problems with magic! To cure disease, you also have to rely on medical skills! I know what I say, you ca n’t believe me completely ... "
He gritted his teeth hard, holding the bottle of blue liquid, and said loudly, "You have taken those magic leaves, and your body is already full of toxins! This toxin is enough to kill people! If you do n’t believe it, please see ! "
After speaking, he took the bottle and sent it to his mouth, and he would drink the blue liquid in the bottle!
The emperor's eyes changed, and he whispered, "Stop!"
The middle-aged man in the corner suddenly flickered, appeared next to the medical officer, and gently stretched out his hand to the bottle from the medical officer's mouth. The medical officer froze and looked up at the mysterious master beside the emperor.
"Prove that you don't need to die." The emperor sat on the bed and slowly shook his head: "Bring two dogs!"
Soon, a servant brought two dogs to the room. The dogs raised in the court were naturally majestic.
The medical officer looked at the middle-aged man and said firmly, "Give the dog a drink, if the dog doesn't die! I commit suicide!"
The middle-aged man looked at Emperor Cantos, closed his eyes, and nodded.
...
Soon, the bottle of blue liquid that participated in the emperor's blood drops drank less than one-third of a dog. After a few minutes, the dog suddenly sobbed a few times, his body twitched, and immediately He fell to the ground, and after a few stings, he died directly! !!
In the room, the servants and guards around him were suddenly shocked. Many guards had already pulled out their weapons and surrounded the court magician!
The magician looked ugly, but still said loudly: "No! There is already this doctor's own potion in the bottle, maybe the potion is already poisonous!"
The medical officer immediately shouted, "If you don't believe it, you can try again! This time, just cut your skin and cut it. As long as a few drops of blood, nothing else, drink another dog ... Naturally clear!"
The emperor opened his eyes, a flash of sharpness flashed in his eyes, but immediately touched a silver knife from the bedside, and quickly cut his thumb! The blade, which was stained with his blood, was thrown to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man nodded, took the knife, and gently cut the remaining dog's skin ...
five minutes! !!
But five minutes later, the dog suddenly twitched! Immediately after that, he howled a few times, and white foam dripped from his mouth, then fell to the ground! !!
This time, even the emperor himself changed color! !!
The middle-aged man turned back and looked at the emperor, and there was a strange and complicated meaning in his eyes.
"Everyone goes out, Ayipur, and the medical officer stays."
The emperor raised his hand.
All the guards were stunned by the emperor's orders, but when the majestic eyes of the emperor swept over, everyone finally retreated.
The medical officer looked up blankly, watching everyone go out, but the magician was already kneeling on the ground, looking at the emperor, with a touch of helplessness.
"Well, get up." The emperor smiled wryly. "Get up."
"Sir, please forgive my incompetence ... I ..." It was the magician who spoke.
"I don't blame you." Emperor Cantos shook his head. "From the beginning, you told me that this treatment is toxic, and it can't really cure my disease. It can only make me recover in a short time. State, but it will greatly shorten my life ... All I know is my own choice. I don't blame you. "
The medical officer is stuck!
After all, he was in the royal family for a long time, and his thoughts turned in an instant, and he realized that he was doing something bad with good intentions!
"You get up, too." The emperor looked at the medical officer: "I don't blame you, you will be so loyal to me, I will only appreciate your loyalty and won't blame you." Pause, The emperor smiled bitterly: "However, you owe an apology to the Lord."
The medical officer immediately bowed his head to the magician: "Sir, I ..."
The magician smiled bitterly: "Okay ... I didn't act well enough and you saw it out. I don't blame you ... you are loyal to your Majesty, which is naturally good."
"I need a little time. I need my subjects to see a healthy emperor! I need soldiers on the walls to see their emperor still alive! I can't let outsiders see my weak appearance! This will reduce the morale and morale of the army. The cohesion of the people. "
The emperor slowly said: "I know this method will only make me die faster, but ... I have no other choice."
After a pause, he looked at the magician and the medical officer in front of him: "What I want to know now is ... how long can I live?"
Seeing that both were hesitant, the emperor immediately said, "I don't need any boring comfort! I don't need any kind lies! Your answers will have a huge impact on the fate of the empire! I must know accurately How much time do I have left! I need to make the most of this time for me to deal with some of the most important issues! "
"About half a month." The medical officer said his answer: "You have too much toxins in your blood, although I don't know what method the Lord Magician used to make these toxins not kill you for a while ... but then With the increase of toxins, you have begun to damage your body's function! And ... It seems that this toxin has begun to harm your body, and the speed will become faster and faster. So ... my judgment is that as short as fourteen five Days, the longest, but only twenty days. "
The emperor raised an eyebrow.
"Your Majesty." The court magician shook his head. "My opinion is not so optimistic."
He glanced at the medical officer next to him: "This gentleman's judgment is based on the current toxin content in your body's blood ... unless you stop my treatment from now. Then the days he said are reasonable ... However, you still need to continue the treatment to ensure that you have a conscious mind ... every time this kind of treatment will shorten your life again. According to my calculations ... if you want to stay awake for the rest of the time Consciousness, you need to continue to continue treatment ... So, according to my calculations, the time you have left will not exceed ... ten days at the most. The shortest word ... probably seven days. "
"Seven days ..."
The emperor's expression was full of haze, but soon, he suddenly laughed: "Okay! Knowing his exact death period is better than suddenly falling down and leaving a mess."
He shook his head immediately: "Wait for the taste of death ... Well, I don't have time to think of this!"
Then, the emperor rose from the bed and looked at the two of them: "Thank you for your honest answer. Please believe that your answer has brought great benefits to the empire."
After that, he looked at the middle-aged man: "Now, I need to meet our prime minister ... It's time to make a will—send someone to invite our prime minister, please ... Oh, Ah Derek doesn't need it, let him continue to deal with those Landis. "

In the afternoon of that day, Emperor UU read a book www.uukanshu.com. The emperor ascended the city wall in person, so that the morale of the defenders who had just repelled a rebel attack at noon was greatly boosted!
The emperor personally inserted an emperor's flag on the tower of the Arc de Triomphe, and pointed at the emperor's flag and said, "I swear here! After this battle, if you can win, all of you will be the new Empire. Honor! My Karenma family will never be dissatisfied in a day! "
Watching the cheering of the soldiers on the city wall, among the crowd, there was a person sitting under the city wall, leaning lazily there, gently wiping a spear in his hand.
Strong body, short hair like steel needles.
Ye Lin looked up at the people on the city wall holding arms and cheering, watching the focus among all the people, like the emperor holding the moon ...
"hypocritical."
Sneer.
