Rebirth: Becoming Brothers (2)
All night, I flipped through all the ancient medical books left to me by my master, but there was no progress. For the first time in my life, I had this frustration and hated myself for knowing too little. Just when I was disheartened, I suddenly remembered the bag left by my master before my death, opened it and looked at it, and it read, "If you are worried about your life, go to the Valley of No Flowers and look for your mother-in-law." β
He didn't care about much, he was afraid that Leng Yue would not be willing, so he added ecstasy to his medicine, hired a carriage, and set off. This flowerless valley is not far away, but there are few people, it is very remote, called the flowerless valley, but it is full of flowers, competing with each other. Suddenly I smelled a fresh fragrance, lost sensation in my limbs, and I fell asleep.
When he woke up, he found himself tied to a tree stump, and Leng Yue was nowhere to be found. Before I could speak, I heard the voice of a young woman, who said softly: "Who is it, so bold, to break into my flowerless valley?"
I hurriedly replied: "My name is Xinghai, I am the apprentice of Le Yi, and the master confessed on his deathbed, if I am in trouble, come to Wuhua Valley to find my mother-in-law." β
"On his deathbed? Dead?" she asked, trembling.
"Yes, the master has been dead for many years"
"Hahaha, he's finally dead, he's dead, dead!" heard only her grief and grief voice.
"The girl mourns, my friend has been poisoned, and asks the girl to forgive me for my offense, tell me where my friend is, and let me go to find my mother-in-law. I begged.
"That good-eyed boy is fine, I'm the weird mother-in-law you're looking for, if you want me to save him, you have to promise me one thing. "She instantly became terrifying, and it made people shudder.
"If my mother-in-law can save him, I will definitely go to the soup and go to the fire. β
"It's love and righteousness, and it's several times stronger than your bullshit master"
"Does my mother-in-law have any misunderstandings about my tutor?" I asked cautiously.
"He's gone, don't mention it. Listen, boy, the poison in your friend is called Qi Xinsan, and this poison is refined from more than 100 kinds of poisonous weeds, and if it is not poisoned, there is no solution to this poison. Unlessβ" She walked up to me with a fan, and as soon as the fan danced, the rope on my body disappeared, and she looked at me hesitantly and said.
"Please ask my mother-in-law to speak up," I asked, holding up my hands and bowing.
"Borrow your life with blood, simply put, exchange your blood for his body, and from then on you both will have one life, and if he is wounded, you will be ten times as much as him, and if he dies, you will die in his place. No one can hurt him unless you die, are you willing?"
I didn't hesitate and said bluntly, "I do, but I beg my mother-in-law not to tell him." "I've never been so determined, and maybe for him and for me, it's just a one-sided relationship.
I followed my mother-in-law to the other courtyard to detoxify the cold moon.
"If you don't succeed, neither you nor him will survive, and it's too late to regret it now. The mother-in-law asked.
"Mother-in-law, the doctor should hang the pot to help the world, and save people as his own responsibility, I have no regrets. Ask your mother-in-law to administer the needle. "With that, I fell asleep with a single injection.
When I woke up, my mother-in-law had finished applying the needle and the exchange blood wound had been bandaged, so I asked my mother-in-law, "How is the poison of the cold moon?"
"It's completely cleared, he has deep internal strength, it's good to recuperate for a while, but you, who have lost too much blood, need to recuperate, and you can't be injured again, otherwise my mother-in-law will be useless." Said in a gentle tone.
"Thank you, mother-in-law, Xinghai remember. Can I go see Cold Moon?"
"Go ahead, in the next room. The mother-in-law shook her head and left helplessly.
- As soon as I entered the door, Leng Yue woke up.
"Brother Leng, how do you feel?
"Is my poison cured?" he looked at me in surprise.
"The residual poison has been cleared, rest for a while, and it will be fine"
"I survived. Xinghai, thank you" looked at me with dark eyes and a smile.
He smiled and called me by name, and I was touched by this smile.
"Brother Leng, there is no need to thank you, I don't ask where you came from, and I don't delve into what you have been through, if you are willing, how about you and I become brothers? I have no father or mother since I was a child, I grew up with my master, and after my master passed away, you are the only one who has fallen in love like this. I asked, hesitantly.
He hesitated for a while, and said: "I was originally the young city lord of Yunyuan City, I was killed by a traitor, and my relatives died tragically, and I was blessed by my subordinates, and I was fortunate to escape a catastrophe. I would like to marry you as brothers with different surnames, and live and die together from now on."
Since becoming a brother, I have taken my inseparability to the extreme, I can't wait to sew myself in my purse and hang it on Leng Yue, he is older than me, I will call him a big brother, my big brother is really more and more beautiful, never get tired of looking at it!
After a few days of recuperation, we have also recovered. The eldest brother decided to go back to the city, vowing to take revenge and get back everything that belonged to him, and since he became brothers, how could I not go differently. said goodbye to his mother-in-law and embarked on the road back to the city with Leng Yue...
With you with you, why fear!
As soon as we entered the city, we saw the portrait of the eldest brother on the notice wall, and it seemed that the situation was much worse than we thought.
I covered my face with a folding fan and asked, "Big brother, how are we doing?"
"Xinghai, you don't have to cover it, no one knows you. β
"Yes, yes, I forgot, I never came, and no one knew me. I was embarrassed to tap my head with my fan.
"Xinghai, there is a drunken building in the alley ahead, let's meet there later. He pulled his cloak down.
- I nodded, and headed to the end of the alley.
This Yunyuan City is really prosperous, as if we have a lantern festival in the city, it is really lively, I don't care about seeing more, and I went straight into the drunken building.
"Xiao Er, bring me an upper room, two pots of flower carvings, and bring them upstairs. β
"Okay, please come inside!"
Entered the guest room, walked to the window, and looked at this lively alley, after a while, Leng Yue had not returned. I don't think anything will happen, but if I'm hurt, I can't be safe, so I'll wait.
I don't know how long it took, maybe I was tired and tired, and I fell asleep unconsciously. When I woke up, I found Leng Yue sitting by the window, and the loneliness of her back was pitiful.
"Big brother, I don't even know when I came back, but what happened?"
"Xinghai, can a person do anything for his own desires, at any cost?" he asked coldly.
"Big brother, everyone has obsessions, and there are always too many things to want, but they are all big dreams, and they shouldn't be obsessed with this. But many people in this world can't see through it. β
"If I am obsessed with revenge, am I also trying to satisfy my own selfish desires?"
"Big brother, why are you so lamented?"
"I sneaked into the city lord's mansion, and the current city lord is discussing with the patriarch how to take me, do you know who the city lord is? I was taught by my uncle to read and write, taught me martial arts, and passed on my mental methods, and now I am like thisβ" He was extremely sad, and his whole body was convulsing.
I didn't know how to persuade him for a while, so I could only stand on the sidelines and look at him.
After being silent for a long time, he said, "Xinghai, I want to ask for clarification." β
"Big brother, at this moment, the whole city is arresting you, if you go back now, won't you send you to death?" I replied anxiously.
"Even if I die, I want to know, what is my uncle? If it is really for the position of the city lord, it is not necessary, he knows very well that I have no intention of involvement, if he is willing to take over, why am I not happy? Why do you use such a vicious way to kill me!"
Suddenly, out of nowhere, there was a mess, and before I could react, an arrow had been fired into the house.
"Be careful!!" Leng Yue rushed over to protect me, hiding by the window, leaning against the wall.
"Young City Lord, don't come unharmed, as soon as you entered the city, you stared at you, your life is really big, and you came back alive!" A man's rough voice came from downstairs.
"Who are you? I want to see my uncle!" Leng Yue said with a cold face.
"The city lord has an order, if you see the young city lord, kill me!" I only heard the sound of chaotic footsteps and angry roars, and they rushed over.
Leng Yue grabbed me by the shoulders and jumped down from the window, but I was tightly surrounded.
"Xinghai, follow me!!"
I nodded, and when I saw the shadow of the sword, the people around me died. Suddenly, he felt the pain like a crack in his arm, and when he looked down, he realized that it was Leng Yue who was injured, and he didn't have time to take a closer look. was pulled by Leng Yue all the way, I don't know how long I ran, came to a wood, found a place to sit down and rest.
I hurriedly treated his wound, fortunately the wound was not deep, I could feel his injury, it hurt him tenfold, there was no wound, I didn't have to worry that he would see through it, as long as I held back the pain.
"Xinghai, the future may not be easy!" he said suddenly.
"Big brother, it's okay, the ends of the earth, you and I are brothers, why be afraid!" I pretended to look at him relaxed and smiled.
The pain in my arm was unbearable, and I didn't say a few words, for fear that he would sense my discomfort. This night passed with such trepidation...
