539 It’s Poisonous
Luo Xiang, who was still sitting in his chair a while ago, approached quickly with Bei Yau. In a flash, he was already beside Bai Ying and covering him while his right hand flicked through the air to blow away the yellow snake that was flying toward them.
The sound of a snake’s scream rang out loudly as the snake with the size length of a few of his men cut in two in midair.
Luo Xiang lifted his cloak to protect himself and Bai Ying from the liquid from the snake which instantly melted Luo Xiang’s robe.
The hissing sound was clear.
“Your Honour”
Luo Xiang covered himself and Bai Ying from the snake body’s fluid which clearly contained extremely dangerous poison, so close that Luo Xiang hugged Bai Ying with his whole body, preventing him from getting hurt. Even in that situation, Luo Xiang felt that Bai Ying’s face had become very beautiful and time seemed to stop with only him and Bai Ying in his cloak as if the world only belonged to the two of them. However, Luo Xiang came to his senses quickly. They are in a dangerous situation.
Elder Yi who came late widened his eyes, and swing his hand to push the snakes away from the Crown Prince and Bai Ying.
“It’s the yellow poisonous snake, where did it come from?”
When all the liquid and the snake had fallen to the ground and melted from his own bodily fluids, Bei Yau and the others drew closer.
.....
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty are you all right?” asked Bei Yau.
Luckily Bei Yau pulled Bi away to another place so she wasn’t hurt. But the Crown Prince’s cloak seemed to be emitting smoke. Bai Ying widened his eyes and removed the cloak from the Crown Prince who was still stunned by his face.
“Your Majesty, your robes are on fire, what, did the liquid hit Your Majesty? Did it get through?” Bai Ying panicked and checked the Crown Prince’s body. Even his thick robe could have holes from the liquid, let alone his clothes that weren’t too thick.
Luo Xiang smiled, in a situation like this the boy is still thinking about him, is he really worried?
“Hehe stupid Ying Ying, that’s exactly what I have to ask you, are you okay?” he asked.
Bai Ying smiled, he made sure the Crown Prince’s body was safe from burns.
“Hehe, I’m fine Your Majesty, emm” until he felt something on his back, hot like something burned through his clothes, it hurt so bad, the liquid hit him.
“Akh”
Luo Xiang’s eyes went wide, looked at Bai Ying’s back, there was a hole on his clothes and a blister-like wound that was still emitting smoke, and it was getting bigger due to the expanding liquid.
“Ying Ying, how did you get hurt?” Luo Xiang immediately lowered his body and carried Bai Ying who was starting to limp, towards the carriage.
“Bei give me the antidote!” he exclaimed.
Bei Yau immediately followed the Crown Prince, as well as Bi who was anxiously worried. While the other soldiers remained on alert with their eyes wide open and swords were drawn long, that sudden attack, was the enemy very close to them?
“Stay alert!” cried head guard Du.
“Ready!”
Elder Yo still stands in his position, looking at the river where more and more bodies float to their direction. Looks from a glimpse those bodies maybe belong to one or another clan, and they all die with blackened skin.
“Heh, they really bold to make the situation messier”
....
A large black horse with sticking out muscles stopped near the riverbank.
The sun was starting to set and a few people whose from their appearance looked like come from a clan stopped when they heard something quite loud across the river. Several young men who wore white clothes with a combination of light blue looked into the distance. The one at the very front, a young man with a handsome face and sunken eyes watched intently, he pulled the reins of his horse.
“Come on guys, we have to go there immediately, Grand Master said, the group from the capital city will pass this way, they could be in trouble,” said the young man.
Without waiting for his comrades who were behind him to follow him.
“Yes, brother!”
Immediately the sound of the hoofs of horses treading the soft grassy path by the river, opposite the direction from where the Crown Prince’s entourage came from.
It wasn’t long before the Crown Prince’s entourage and the young men dressed in white met in the middle of the road. The young man who was at the very front immediately got off his horse and greets Bei Yau who have to stop of a sudden waiting for the young men who were probably the people sent by the White Cloud College to pick them up, just like what the Chief Sang Guan Yi Lu said.
“Greeting sir, Servant is Xu er, the first disciple of the great Master Sang Guan Bai Lu, we are envoys from the White Cloud clan. the great master sent us to fetch you gentlemen under the foot of the mountain, but we heard something loud just now, did something happen?”
Bei Yau saw the young man who called himself Xu er. He had often heard of Sang Guan Bai Lu’s big name, Sang Guan Yi Lu’s younger brother, and the young man looked quite convincing as a clan disciple who was famous for being humble and friendly.
“Bei, why are we stopping?” Crown Prince’s voice.
Bei Yau approached the carriage and lowered his head.
“Report Your Majesty, there’s a group of disciples from White Cloud blocking the way, they pick us up as a direct order from the Chief”
“We can’t waste the time, Bei, you know that? We have to find the inn immediately to treat Ying, we’ll talk about this later.”
Bei Yau nodded.
“Yes, Your Majesty”
Bei Yau turned to the several young people in front of him who seemed to be whispering to each other, the eyes of the young man named Xu er widened.
“Is there a chance that one of you has encountered a yellow snake from the dead river?” asked the young man.
Bei Yau opened his eyes wide, how could they know?
.....
The Crown Prince’s golden carriage ran quite fast away from the riverbank towards the next small town of Du An.
Bei Yau was at the front with wary eyes looking at his surroundings. A group of disciples from the White Cloud Clan were seen leading the way. The horses were running quite fast than usual, causing the fairly large carriage to sway slightly from it.
While in the carriage.
Luo Xiang supported Bai Ying’s limp body. His back was half open with burns from the poison that had hit his skin. His body was unbelievably hot, even though Luo Xiang had given the antidote but they didn’t know what poison hit him. The child groaned until he broke out in a cold sweat that could not stand the pain that continued to throb, as if something had entered his skin and was eating him from the inside.
His hand gripped tightly holding the Crown Prince’s arm.
Ekh, Your Majesty, it hurts so bad”
Luo Xiang stroked Bai Ying’s hair with a forehead that was already wet with his own sweat, they had to arrive at General Po’s residence soon to get the antidote. According to Xu er, the first disciple of Sang Guan Bai Lu, the White Cloud clan has an antidote to the yellow snake venom which is famous for its venom that can make a black body melt beneath the skin, even a small amount of the liquid on the skin can spread to kill in a very slow time. and painful. And it was also impossible for him to channel the internal energy to push the poison out, which would only make his condition worse. It happens that the old General also have it, hopefully, it’s still there.
“Heh, hang on Ying, we’ll be arriving at Grandpa Po’s house soon,” he whispered, kissing Bai Ying’s hot forehead. Since General Po’s residence was closer to the White Cloud clan, they had to get there immediately. The Crown Prince was very anxious. Too anxious to hug Bai Ying’s body very tightly, even though he had to feel the heat of the young man’s body.
“Hey Ying Ying”
......
General Po’s residence.
It was near midnight when the Crown Prince’s entourage and others finally arrived at the old general’s residence.
The carriage had not completely stopped when the Crown Prince had already carried Bai Ying’s body out towards the house.
The old general was late coming out to greet them.
“Greetings Your Majesty, eh, Xiao Ying? What happened to him?” asked General Po wide his eyes when he saw Luo Xiang who had carried Bai Ying into the house.
“General Po, get me the antidote for the yellow snake poison, Ying is in danger” he shouted.
General Po, still stunned where he was, didn’t follow what was happening, but he rushed in following the Crown Prince.
The general waved his right hand.
“Get the antidote immediately, and prepare hot water and a small knife, hurry!” cried the old man. His men immediately nodded and rushed to carry out their duties.
Everyone looked very panicked, Bi then got off the carriage that had just arrived and immediately ran after the Crown Prince.
“Your Majesty, wait for me.”
