33. The troubles of juvenile illness 17~18
Yang Shuo agreed without saying a word, and helped Mu Yan "smuggle" to Maolin City, a neighboring county.
This time, Mu Yan really regards Yang Doudou as a close friend, and if Yang Shuo needs his help in the future, he will not hesitate to stick a knife in both sides.
Jianming was worried about his junior brother and wanted to go together, but Yang Shuo refused: "Senior brother, you don't know how to water, that section of the river is still quite difficult to cross, if you fall into the river, I will have to fish you, don't make a mess." ”
Identification: "...... Then you bring the light snow. "Xiaoxue is the eagle falcon raised by Yang Shuo, named Xiaoxue because of the white part of the feathers on its body, and Xiaohai raised by Jianming is a pair.
There was no way, Jianming had to watch Yang Shuo and Mu Yan change their clothes and run away, there was an eagle falcon flying with them in the sky overhead, Xiaoxue didn't fly high, Jianming looked at the gray sky with golden eyes, and always had an ominous premonition. When he returned to his room, he was really uneasy, so he meditated on the couch and chanted, and Xiao Hai stood on the window and looked at his master, leisurely combing his feathers with his beak.
Over there, Yang Shuo took Mu Yan out of the city first through a secret passage, and the port in the city was also closed, so they had to find another place to set off. The two walked quickly, and they could vaguely see a patch of reeds across a forest, Yang Shuo pointed in that direction: "That's it, they told me that the boat was hidden in the reeds, let's go look for it." ”
When they arrived at the river, the reeds were dense and long, and they patiently searched for a long time, and finally found the shadow of the boat.
Mu Yan hurriedly followed, "What's wrong?"
Yang Shuo looked left and right at the boat, "This is my boat." So he jumped back into bed.
Mu Yan went over to see that there were already two people on the boat, a beautiful lady sat on the boat, and another man slept on her thigh, but his face was not very good, pale and bloodless, and his lips were blue, as if he was sick.
The lady was about twenty years old, her hair was loosely curled, unpowdered, and her skin was so white and thin that blue blood could be faintly seen on the bridge of her nose and on her forehead. Her slender figure was wrapped in a dark blue skirt, quite a weak willow to support the wind, a pair of black eyes seemed to be full of autumn water, a vermilion teardrop the size of a meter tip under the corner of her eyes, she hurriedly held the unconscious man in her arms, and looked at the two teenagers in horror, as if they were uninvited guests.
Mu Yan turned his head and asked, "Is this really your ship?"
Yang Shuo nodded: "That's right." ”
Mu Yan said ruthlessly: "Then drive people down." We're going to rush to Maolin. ”
Yang Shuo: "......" He couldn't bear to look at the beautiful lady and the man who seemed to be her husband.
Madame spoke first, and pleaded weakly and pitifully: "We are from Niutou Village outside the city, my grandson is sick, I brought him to Fucheng to see a doctor, but I don't want to go in, and the official road over there is also forbidden, my husband fainted, and I have no choice but to rest on your ship...... You, where are you going, can you give us a ride? I just want to save my husband, please. She didn't stand up, but she sat and bent over them.
Mu Yan was indifferent, and he stepped forward to pull people. The delicate and weak little lady lifted her face slightly, a fine light slipped under her eyes, and her hand moved slightly under her sleeve. Yang Shuo stopped Mu Yan, with a large string of Buddhist beads wrapped around his wrist, and said patiently: "Forget it, it's okay to give them a ride." You see, I am a disciple of Buddhism, saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, I can't see death without saving it. ”
Mu Yan was not happy, and said in a low voice: "Don't you think that a couple suddenly appeared in this wilderness?
The lady heard everything they said clearly, and rolled her eyes in her heart: I still think you two are strange, at this time, you suddenly appeared, and it is most taboo to meet women, children, patients, and monks when walking the rivers and lakes. If it weren't for the urgent need for someone to sail the boat, he wouldn't have to be restrained by the two yellow-haired children, and just kill him. She pretended to be anxious and helpless, and knelt down and kowtowed to Yang Shuo without blinking, "Please, this little hero, if you save our husband, I will eat fasting and chant Buddha for you every day in the future, and set up a longevity card for you......"
Yang Shuo blushed and went to help her, and stammered: "This lady, you, don't do this...... Brother Mu, let's take her with us, how pitiful people are. ”
The boat is driven by Yang Shuo, he is the owner of the boat, since he has made up his mind, Mu Yan can't say anything, just sit on the bow of the boat and stare at the strange couple tightly, frowning. If there was any change in the other party, he would absolutely throw people into the river to feed the fish without sympathy.
The boat staggered out of the reeds and entered the river, Yang Shuo and Mu Yan pulled up two triangular sails, riding the wind, and the speed of the boat suddenly became a lot faster.
The wife wiped the beads of sweat on her husband's forehead with a handkerchief, Yang Shuo saw that her sleeve was stained with blood, and the husband's body seemed to be wrapped in a white cloth bandage, so he couldn't help but say to Mu Yan: "Didn't we bring some medicine that we didn't need, or send it to them to see if we could help." ”
Mu Yan wanted to pretend that the wind was too big to hear, Yang Shuo repeated it again, and Mu Yan reluctantly took the medicine and asked the lady, "This is the golden sores to stop bleeding, this is the blood tonic pill...... If you can use it, use some. ”
Madame lowered her head, as if she didn't dare to look at him, and shyly refused: "Thank you for these little sons, my family's father-in-law's illness, but these are not needed." ”
She didn't want it, and Mu Yan wouldn't rush to be this good person and go with her.
Even Yang Doudou suddenly didn't dare to speak without knowing how to speak, the atmosphere was subtly awkward, and after being silent for an unknown amount of time, Mrs. broke the deadlock first: "...... Did the two little boys come out of the city?"
"Yes, we ......" Yang Shuo was just about to speak, but he was glared at fiercely by Mu Yan, and he immediately closed his mouth.
Seeing that he closed his mouth, Mu Yan whispered to him: "Don't talk to them, I'll talk to you." ”
As he said before, the appearance of this couple is too weird, he has not let down his guard until now, he originally thought that the patient might also be pretending, it can be seen that he is in a cold sweat, his face is blue, and his lips are purple, it should not be pretending, but really sick. He walked the couple up and down, smiled, and did not answer each other's questions, but asked: "This lady, what kind of illness is your husband having? ”
"Yes, his master is a famous ......"
"Doudou!" Mu Yan was so angry with him that he first put aside the couple and went to beat Yang Shuo, "Are you stupid? How can you be the leader of the Cao Gang? Don't say your real name! Now your name is Zhang San, and my name is Li Si, do you know?"
Yang Shuo nodded hurriedly, he was afraid that he would make a mistake, so he didn't dare to speak, and Master Gu's name was not reported.
Mu Yan turned her head and continued to ask, "Auntie, I don't know what illness your husband has yet?"
Madame shook her head sadly, "I don't know, I've looked for several doctors, but I don't know what the disease is. After saying that, he refused to reveal half a point more.
The boat drove quietly on the river for a while, the two sides of the river were full of endless green mountains and forests, and Yang Shuo said: "There is still half an hour to enter the gorge, we have to hurry, I see that the sky is about to change, the light rain is good to say, if it is heavy rain, it will be troublesome." ”
The husband, who had been in a coma halfway, woke up, and his wife looked weak and strong, and she was not tired of holding him all the time, and when she saw her husband wake up, she happily took out water from the bag and carefully fed him, and asked him with concern. The man smiled weakly and replied again.
Mu Yan wanted to eavesdrop, but the wind was strong, and he was standing in a position against the wind, so he couldn't hear what the two said, but he could vaguely look at their expressions and interactions, very intimate, as if they were indeed a couple.
"Where are we now?" asked the husband softly, "where are the pursuers?"
"I asked Cao Linglu to lead the pursuers away, and those people might think that we were still in the city. We're on the ship now, we're going to go to Maolin City, and it's good to get there safely, and I've sent a book to an old man to meet us, he's a holy hand in medicine, and your injuries will be cured by then, so hold on a little longer?" said to his wife, "San Lang, what do you think now?"
King Jian Xingsan, he called him San Lang since he was a child.
They have run out of medicines that they have brought with them. This is the poisoned arrow put by the people of the King of Liao, they naturally know what kind of poison it is, and they will take the first step to loot all the medicinal materials that can be used in the whole pharmacy to treat the symptoms, they just go to steal and rob and don't know where to find it, digging three feet into the ground to find people, and sealing the city, this is the purpose of trapping them alive even if they can't find them. He had no choice but to find an opportunity to escape alone with Saburo, disguised himself, and pretended to be his wife who took her seriously ill husband to seek medical treatment...... Originally, he made an appointment to wait for his subordinate Cao Linglu and them to catch up, but after an hour, he didn't wait for anyone, he found his way out and found the boat by the river, but he couldn't drive the boat......
He came back to his senses and found that his hand was being held tightly, frowned, and didn't pull his hand back because there was a little bastard next to him watching: "What are you doing?"
King Jian's eyes were blue, as if he was going to die in the next moment, but he smiled heartily and said with satisfaction: "Yun Qing, you haven't been so gentle with me for a long time...... I am willing to die. ”
If it weren't for someone watching, San Lang was in danger again, and the man who was called Yun Qing would have slapped him directly, and he scolded in a low voice: "What nonsense, are you stupid? Die for your size, I, Jiang Xinian, still want to live well! If you die, they will definitely kill me! If you drag me to survive, how can I teach you on weekdays? Useless things! I don't practice well, and I was hit by an arrow, which dragged me down! You have to give me a life, live to be an emperor! I have raised you for so many years, nine deaths and a lifetime, and finally you are only one step away from the dragon chair, and you have not yet enjoyed the glory and wealth, you dare to die! Are you worthy of me?"
King Jian chuckled softly, "Hmm...... I'll survive. Yunqing, how long have I been in a coma? I'm a little hungry, let me eat some water. ”
"It's been three hours. You haven't eaten water and rice since the morning, and you can't be hungry?" Jiang Xinian said angrily, he was angry at what King Jian said, and he didn't dissipate his anger immediately, but he still immediately took dry food from his baggage, soaked it in water, broke it, and patiently fed him little by little.
King Jian looked at the water bladder and blushed, "When I was unconscious, did you feed me mouth-to-mouth water?"
Jiang Xinian replied sympathetically: "You still have the heart to think about these things that you don't have, it seems to be very spiritual!"
King Jian was scolded by him, and he quickly weakened like a piece of kelp being dried, and said pitifully: "...... Yunqing, if I die, you don't care about others, just run away, you know where my money is hidden, you can take it. ”
"Hmph, if it fails, of course I won't care about others. But you forgot what I told you? Your memory is so bad? You've been poisoned so much since you were a child, and you've trained more or less, right?"
King Jian nodded, closed his eyes and continued to recuperate, he was very afraid that he would not wake up next time he fell asleep, and said after a while: "Yunqing, I'm dying, can you kiss me? ”
Jiang Xinian was laughed at by him, "Kiss you, kiss you, don't you just say that I am gentle with you, and you are willing to die? Now you have to inch by inch and want me to kiss you again? At this time, you still think about the love of children and daughters, and there is no interest!"
King Jian thought about it, he liked him for so many years, and now he was about to die, and he still didn't even kiss him, and he felt so sad. He saw that it was useless to sell pitiful, so he had to rest, he turned his head and saw the two teenagers in the bow of the boat, "...... How come I've never seen those two men?"
"I haven't seen it either. Jiang Xinian lowered his throat and said, "This is their ship." The timing of the appearance of these two boys is also very strange, you see that the footsteps are calm, there are calluses in the palms, they should be practitioners, and their skills are good for their age...... I don't know what the way it came from, the tattooed one on the arm has a piece of apricot tree leaf on the body, there is no forest near this book, only in Dingjiang City, it is estimated that it has just come out of the city, at this time it came out of the city, and it happened to be going to Maolin City, it was too coincidental...... But instead of sitting there and waiting to die, it is better to take a risky move, and I don't know how long I will hide with you on the shore. Now on the river, if the boat is wrecked, they will not survive. …… What do you see?"
King Jian said dumbfoundedly, "You are so good-looking...... It's so appropriate for you to wear women's clothes, and if you pretend to be a woman and marry me. ”
Jiang Xinian hates others the most for saying that he is neither male nor female, even if the third prince he raised since childhood says so. He felt that this bastard was really relying on his injury and weakness, and he dared to say anything bastard.
At this time, an eagle chirp pierced the sky, Jiang Xinian was stunned, and looked out, only to see a majestic white-haired eagle falcon soaring and meekly landing on the arm of the wheat-skinned boy.
Jiang Xinian's eyes sank, he recognized this kind of eagle falcon, Di Yi once offered three, the emperor liked it very much, rewarded the King of Liao with one, kept two for himself, and took it with him every time he went out hunting, and the King of Liao seemed to have bought a few from Di Yi to play later. It is said that the birth rate of this kind of eagle is very low, it is difficult to find one, and it is even more difficult to tame, it is possible to tame one only by killing a hundred, and it is not sold to ordinary people, and the general prince's house cannot be bought with money...... But being played with so casually by a teenager in the market?
He turned his wrist, loosening his muscles and bones, and his fingertips flashed with coldness, two cicada wing knives thinner than paper.
Yang Shuo took out some fried soybeans from his small pocket and gave them to Xiaoxue to eat, and released them again.
Mu Yan suddenly noticed a killing intent, although it was fleeting, he was very uncomfortable, he turned his head to look at the couple, after the husband woke up, they were nong and I for a long time, he felt dazzling, so he didn't keep staring, only occasionally glanced at a few times.
"Are you looking at them again? Is there something wrong?" Yang Shuo asked.
Mu Yan speculated and said, "Do you remember that when you were in the city, the government said that it was arresting a Jiangyang thief, so that the city was full of storm......s? The doctor told me that most of the time those medicines are used for detoxification. And the husband was not only injured, but seeing that his lips and nails were black, he should have also been poisoned. …… I suspect that he is the Jiangyang thief that the government is hunting. ”
Yang Shuo felt very reasonable when he heard it, "Then what should I do?"
Mu Yan frowned: "I haven't thought about it yet, it's okay on the river now, they won't set up a boat." But I'm afraid that they will cross the river and tear down the bridge. I felt the murderous ......"
"I said how weird. Yang Shuo nodded and said worriedly: "Can't we tell them that we can't betray them?...... I'm sorry, Brother Mu, I let them on board. ”
Mu Yan shook his head: "I don't blame you, maybe if you don't agree at that time, he will kill people at that time." ”
Yang Shuo: "Then what now, is that lady dangerous?"
Mu Yan said fiercely: "What are you afraid of? We are two people. She is alone with a sick person, and she may not be able to help us!"
Jianming recited half of the sutra, only to hear a click, he suddenly opened his eyes, the Buddhist beads in his hand were broken, and the Buddhist beads rolled to the ground. Without wearing any shoes, Jianming walked barefoot to the door and pushed the two doors open, and it rained outside, and the bean-sized raindrops made the pipa leaves in the yard crackle, and there was a tendency to get worse.
