65. Rescue
"Master, in this weather, what are you doing here, let's go back, and come back when the rain stops." A young man dressed in green clothes followed behind a man dressed in white, constantly complaining, such weather is still raining and I don't know what the master thinks, he actually wants to inspect the river embankment, inspect the river embankment, but he has to brave the rain to go upstream, in his own opinion, there is nothing to find guilt, such weather to stay at home to sing poems and paintings, listen to the piano and play music, and then put a pot of wine on the pillar, it should be comfortable, this should be the life of a noble son.
"I like to swim in the rain, and it also has a unique charm." The gentle voice of the man in white sounded like a spring breeze, and he didn't care about the complaints of the young man behind him, and still rode forward, such a sudden rainstorm, the river water swelled and flooded, and the farmland on both sides of the bank was easily flooded. Besides, the life of chanting poems, paintings, listening to piano and playing music no longer belongs to me, and after that night five years ago, I am destined to be unable to have such a peaceful state of mind.
"Humph!" The young man didn't seem to be afraid of his master's anger, so he made a sound from his nostrils as if angry, and no longer paid attention to the boy in white, although he still followed the boy in white, but his eyes looked around.
The boy in white doesn't mind what the young man next to him does, in his eyes this is just a child, what's there to worry about? On the contrary, I really want this child to continue to be so naïve, but I am afraid that this is also my own luxury, thinking that these white-clothed men are a little self-deprecating, isn't this what they are? The puppet is not guilty, but he is guilty.
"Master, look there." The young man in Tsing Yi stretched out his hand and pointed to the river.
Looking in the direction of the young man's finger, he saw a man lying on a log by the river, his face down could not see his appearance clearly, and his body was full of mud, and he could not see what color and texture it was. This person was the one who was holding a piece of driftwood after escaping from the carriage, and at this time he had been drifting in the river for two days, and his body was unconscious, and he didn't know what to do.
"What should I do?" After all, the young man was still young, and suddenly saw a person by the river, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he could only look at the man in white as if he was beating a drum in his heart.
"What else can I do, of course, I will go down and see, if I live, I will save people, and if I die, I must confirm my identity and post a notice to let people identify the body." The voice of the man in white was still very gentle, and there was no change, as if he had long been accustomed to seeing life and death.
"Master, maybe it's a dead man down there." Hearing the boy in white say that if he is alive, he will save people, and if he is dead, he must confirm his identity, which makes the young man even more afraid, what if this person is really dead?
"What, scared?" The tone of the man in white was rare with a smile.
"What am I afraid of, I haven't been afraid of anyone when my little five have grown so big!" Hearing the hint of laughter in the tone of the man in white, the young man was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, thinking that although he was afraid in his heart, he couldn't show his cowardice in front of the master, the young man endured the fear in his heart, sniffed, and tried to look at the man in white in front of him with wide eyes.
"Since you're not afraid, then go and save people." Saving people is like fighting fire, the man in white is not making fun of teenagers, children need to exercise, but they can't overdo it. The two put the horse on the side of the road, the horse was very spiritual, he was grazing on the side of the road and did not go far, and when he walked to the river, he saw the man lying on a huge driftwood, and the man in white probed her nose, the man's breath was already very weak, but the person was still alive!
"Master, is she dead?" The young man in Tsing Yi was worried, although he was born in this border city, he rarely saw dead people, and he heard that the drowned people were very angry and would drag the living into the water.
"She's not dead, but her breath is very weak, and she needs immediate treatment." The boy in white is not scaring the boy either. "Come and help me get her down."
Although the man was unconscious, he held her so tightly that he couldn't get her down. The two of them worked together to let go of the man's grip on driftwood. At this time, the two of them saw the general situation of the man's body, two days ago, it rained heavily in the sky, the river swelled, the man's clothes soaked in the river water can no longer see the original color, but it is sewn with fine snow satin, the style of the clothes is men's clothing for exquisite workmanship, the man does not know that he has been floating in the river for a few days, the bun has long been scattered, although the hair is covered with mud stains but it is very long, a green silk is almost as long as the ankle, the palm-sized face can no longer see the original appearance, but the facial features are very exquisite. "Master, is she a man or a woman?" Xiao Wu is not very old, but he doesn't understand anything, although this person is wearing men's clothes, but this person's hair is so long if it is washed clean, it must be very beautiful, looking at this person's face is so small, it doesn't look like a man, but he is wearing a man's clothes.
"You kid is quite enlightened this time, there is a thing in this world called women dressing up as men, understand? Brat. The man in white smiled.
"Master, you said this person is really a woman dressed as a man?"
"Naturally, yes, you think you can't tell whether you are a man or a woman like you?" The man in white raised his eyebrows, although it was raining, it did not affect his fairy-like appearance.
The young man stuck out his tongue, only to see that the man in white had already picked up the person, and the woman was wrapped in gauze on her chest, and the original blood stains could no longer be seen, but the injury on the chest must be very serious. Her breathing was weak, and she had to get a doctor to treat her. The boy in white no longer joked about the young man in Tsing Yi, and stepped directly on the river embankment with a person, and the horse grazing on the side of the road was very spiritual, and when he saw the master coming up, he immediately trotted over, and the boy in white stepped directly on the back of the horse and spurred the horse away. The young man in Tsing Yi who was still stunned in place, has it really changed this day, isn't his eyes glazed, the master's Haoyue actually let another person other than the master lie on it!
You must know that Haoyue is a well-known good horse, not only can he travel thousands of miles a day, but there has never been a person other than the owner to get close to its body, even if he follows the master every day, he can only stand five steps away from him, just because of this, he named himself Xiaowu. But what is the situation now, even if that person is unconscious, but she is still a person of unknown origin, Haoyue actually let the master carry her on horseback, this fact made the young man in Tsing Yi feel a big blow.
"Don't you go back yet, waiting for the wind to chill??" Although the boy in white has gone away, he is still worried about the young man in Tsing Yi, but today's Haoyue's appearance really surprised the boy in white, he was willing to carry a stranger, and he was afraid that it was not easy to enter Haoyue's eyes. It's not easy to think about it, it's not easy to disguise yourself as a man, get seriously injured, and you don't know how long you've been drifting in such a river, and it's not easy to think about it. It's just that this figure does look like that person, but she shouldn't be here anymore.
Haoyue is worthy of being a very fast horse, it seems to understand that the person in the arms of the master is very injured, so although he ran fast along the way, he didn't feel how bumpy it was, and soon arrived at the mansion of the man in white, this mansion is not big, it can be said that it is a very delicate and small courtyard with three entrances, after entering the door, there is a shadow wall, but there is a pool of lotus flowers carved on the shadow wall, if Lan Susu is awake at this time, he may feel strange, and the shadow wall should be carved with evil spirits.
"Master, where did you pick this person from, it's so dirty, you still hold it." A girl in goose yellow clothes was even more surprised when she saw the boy in white coming back with a clay figure in his arms. Ye has always loved cleanliness, how can he pick up a clay figure and hold it in his arms as if it were a treasure.
"Little Si, quickly call someone to ask for a doctor, invite the best doctor in Yuncheng. Ask someone to boil hot water again, and you can help this girl bathe. After a simple arrangement, the man in white directly hugged the clayman-like Lan Susu into his room.
Although Xiao Si loves to talk, but she is also a neat person, she quickly found the housekeeper and asked the housekeeper to take the tokens in the house to invite the best doctor in Yuncheng, and then went to the kitchen to arrange for someone to boil hot water and send it to the master's room. Soon the hot water was boiling, and the little maid led the people into the courtyard where the man in white lived, carrying the hot water and the bath bucket.
"Master, the hot water is ready, please also take the girl out and bathe next door." Xiao Si stood outside the door, the doors and windows in the room were closed at this time, Xiao Si didn't know what his master was, so he could only step forward and knock on the door.
"Bring in the hot water and let her bathe in the master's room." The calm and gentle voice of the man in white came from the room. Xiao Si didn't say anything more, just opened the door and let the hot water into the room, at this time, the clay figure was lying on the beauty couch in the side hall, wrapped in the fox fur of the master, and a charcoal fire was also lit in the room, obviously to keep this person warm, seeing these even Xiao Si, who has never gossiped much, has a little curiosity, what kind of person is this who got into the eyes of the master?
"Master, the slave maid also prepared hot water for the master, but the girl is bathing in the room, so where is the bath."
"It's okay, you are here to serve this girl to bathe, and you can also go next door, be careful, she has injuries on her body." The boy in white explained everything carefully, and Xiao Si nodded again and again.
