Chapter 222: You want to kill

I had a dream in which the old man under the moon was moving his lips in front of me, but I couldn't hear what he was saying......

The air was cold, and I shivered and woke up. The fire has not been extinguished, and the dead branches are still crackling. The crowd was so tired that it seemed as if they were asleep. I lifted the thin shirt I was wearing and tiptoed past to add fuel to the fire.

I don't know when the rain stopped outside the hut, and there was only the sound of chickens crowing in the mountains, and the sky gradually brightened. After feeding the medicine last night, the merchant's face had softened, and he was still asleep.

"Brother Bai, so early!" Guo Huan stretched after waking up and said hello to me.

The others were still sleeping, and I motioned for him to be quiet, "Well, I'm awake." ”

He understood, and nodded silently.

I went to the carriage to get the pot and rice and prepared to cook the rice. The air was humid, and there was a smell of rotting grass and muddy water, which didn't smell very good.

After washing the rice and putting it in the pot, I took the pot back to the straw shed to cook. The merchant had woken up, and the crowd was surrounding him asking him how he had fallen into the river. He said that the rain broke out in a flash flood, and the soil at the edge of the mountain road became unusually soft, and the road collapsed as the truck ran on the road, and he fell into the torrent with the truck before he could escape. recalled his experience of nine deaths, and thanked everyone for a thousand moments.

Everyone humbly said some words of comfort to him, and estimated that the road ahead could not be walked. The merchant said that there was still an official road back to the foot of the mountain. I sighed that I often walked this mountain road without encountering disasters, and this time I was careless and almost lost my life.

The danger of taking the official road is naturally great, but the mountain road is broken, and now there is no other way. I asked the merchant where he was going, and he replied that he was going to Zhongzhou City, Lijun. He is a native of Yuzhou in the south, sells silk all year round, and has a small shop in Zhongzhou City. After hearing about him, I took him with the rest of the people. Guo Huan took the lead and said that it was okay to save him, but we didn't know his details, and it was too dangerous to take him on the road. The others also disagreed with Guo Huan, for fear that the businessman would endanger Ah Wei's safety.

I naturally have my own considerations, since Xuanyue wants me to save him, he must be good for us, and he can also cover us and help us hide our identities. Ah Wei coughed a few times, and said to the others that he was very tired, and they all listened to Ayu. And the people had no more opinions.

However, there are no opinions and no opinions, and there are still emotions. The crowd dispersed in a huff, and went to their own business. Then I went and told the merchant that we were going to Lijun too, and that we could take him with us. When the merchant heard this, he immediately burst into tears, and he was grateful for his kindness. I know what it's like, what it's like to be in a desperate situation.

I said some polite words to comfort him, he calmed down, looked at Ah Wei and quietly asked me, this son is not in good health.

I nodded at him, not understanding his intentions.

He continued, I saw that his face was not good, and he kept coughing, thinking that he was sick......

Listening to him, I suddenly had a flash of inspiration in my mind, and excitedly grabbed his arm and asked him, he has a stubborn disease, do you have a panacea?

The merchant was startled by my reaction, and replied with a smile for a moment, "Little brother, I am not a healer, so there is no magic cure."

I let go of my hand in some disappointment and apologized to him that I had lost my temper, please forgive me.

Then the merchant laughed and said, "I don't have a panacea, but I know a medicine picker who has good medicine there."

The turn was too sudden, I was stunned for a moment before asking him, where is the herb picker?

He replied that we businessmen make money when they have money, and I not only sell silk to Zhongzhou, but also sell strange medicines on Phoenix Mountain to the south.

Phoenix Mountain... Herb pickers... I hurriedly grabbed the merchant by the arm and said, "Go, take us to him."

But he didn't move, smiled and brushed off my hand and said, little brother, you are too anxious, Ruth has to go little by little.

I really want to fly over with wings. I laughed with him, but I was too anxious.

I hurriedly went to tell Ah Wei about these things, he smiled but didn't say much, and I suddenly felt that I was not blindly optimistic.

When the rice was cooked, everyone packed up their things with gruel and went on the road. I returned to the official road the same way, Ah Wei was not in good spirits and fell asleep in the car, so I sat outside and urged Wang Meng to hurry up and catch the car, but the road was muddy and I always walked unfast. The weather was hot and they were in a hurry, and everyone was dry-mouthed. On the way, I met a tea house, stopped for a while and drank some tea. During this period, a group of cavalry passed by, and everyone was so frightened that they hurriedly covered their hats and clenched their weapons to prepare for a battle. However, these cavalry did not stop and galloped past.

The road ahead was dangerous, and everyone didn't dare to rest and hurried on the road, but at this time, Ah Wei's situation suddenly became bad, and he vomited a few mouthfuls of black blood on the carriage and passed out. Wu Yuan gave him a few life-saving pills, but he still didn't wake up. I saw Wu Yuan's sad face, knowing that Ah Wei was not good, and hugged Ah Wei for a while.

About noon, I entered the town, the town is not big, but there are many people coming and going, and it is still prosperous. Passers-by were sleepy and tired for days, and Ah Wei was unconscious. After a while, they decided to stay here for one night and leave tomorrow.

I had already agreed with the merchant before, and if anyone asked, they would say that we were his companions. The merchant took us to an inn we knew and checked in smoothly without any suspicion. It was much easier, and the crowd began to think that it was right to take the merchant on the road.

Wang Meng and they went out to do errands, and Wu Yuan and I kept guarding Ah Wei until it was dark, and he didn't wake up until dark, and everyone's hanging hearts were temporarily relaxed. After feeding him some medicated porridge, he said he was a little tired and fell asleep again. Wang Meng They kept vigil outside, and I asked Wu Yuan to rest, and I lay on the edge of the bed to guard Ah Wei. I kept trying his breath, afraid he would just die.

As the night wore on, I dozed off and woke up, and saw Ah Wei's brows furrowed, fine sweat on his forehead, and his fingers clenched into fists, as if he had fallen into a nightmare. Seeing that he was uncomfortably tight, I took his cold hand and called his name on the side. After a while, his eyes opened a slit, seemed to look at me, and slowly closed again, and from then on his breathing was even.

I got up and stretched, trying to pour a cup of tea. The kettle was lifted, and the cup was in his hand, but in the quiet air of the dark night, there was a sudden sound of wisps of short flutes, the sound was very weak, and if you didn't know the inside story, you would just ignore it as if you didn't hear it. But I won't, because I know such weird tunes, only uncles do.

Uncle is here, right here. Suddenly I burst into tears, put down what I was holding, opened the door and chased the sound of the flute. The sound of the flute loomed, sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and finally went out of town. It was pitch black outside, the night animals made strange noises, and I ran through the desolation, forgetting even to be afraid. Supporting me was the sound of the flute that was getting clearer and clearer.

Closer, closer. It wasn't until I caught up in a dense forest that the sound of the flute stopped abruptly in my ears, and I vaguely heard the noisy fighting.

I held on to the small tree next to me and gasped for breath and continued to run forward, but when I got closer, I didn't dare to lean over, just hid to the side and quietly watched what was going on. The uncle and his subordinates are all wearing white shirts and are easy to recognize, but a few people on the other side don't know who it is? Could it be someone from Ah Wei's side?

Vaguely, I could hear a woman's voice calling out for someone who had fallen. The dim light of the torches flickered, and it was too faint to see their faces. Who is this woman? It was a moment before I heard her heart-rending roar awaken from her misery. That's Linlang, Ye Linlang!

Without waiting for me to act, two figures suddenly appeared from behind me, looking at this figure, I knew that it was Wang Meng and Guo Huan. I was relieved, and thankfully they came.

Wang Meng and Guo Huan's actions were very clear, so they didn't fight with the uncle's people, and they saw the opportunity to save Linlang and got out of the battle circle. Guo Huan ran in front with Linlang in his arms, and Wang Meng protected me and shouted at me to leave. Where is the time, the uncle has already arrived.

I felt the cold murderous intent around my uncle, so I flashed out from behind Wang Meng and called him softly, uncle!
