Chapter 6: Falling off a cliff
After finding someone and asking where the thatched house was, Ah Xiang walked to the backyard. This backyard is a kitchen and a stable, how can there be a thatched house?
As I walked, I heard the sound of people talking in a secluded corner. Ah Xiang didn't hear clearly, only heard a Tang Sect. It may have been noticed that someone was coming, and the sound disappeared. When he turned around, he bumped into a person. Ah Xianglian said sorry, and when he looked up, it was Du Sheng!
He still had the same expressionless expression, and it was not right, his brows were slightly furrowed, but Ah Xiang still shouted "Du Gongzi"
Du Sheng looked down at the woman in front of him, her face was immature, her appearance was ordinary, and she shouted timidly, inexplicably a little disgusted.
Ah Xiang looked at him with a slight frown, and walked directly past him without saying anything, is he disgusted? But it doesn't matter, anyway, I said before I started to stay away from him, but I wonder why I met him here, is he also going to go to the thatched house? But what does it have to do with her, Ah Xiang shrugged her shoulders and left.
Find the thatched house, Ah Xiang quickly solves it. It was already dark, and it was even darker in the thatched house, Ah Xiang was so frightened that she hurriedly ran back.
Before they arrived at their table, they saw Shen Ruomeng angry from a distance, Xuanyuan Sheng also looked at her and frowned, Ye Chenqing was no longer there. What's going on? Ah Xiang approached suspiciously, and Shen Ruomeng saw Ah Xiang coming, and pulled Ah Xiang upstairs.
Ah Xiang was pulled inexplicably, and her doubts were only suppressed. When he arrived at the room, Shen Ruomeng sat on the bed and got angry.
"This Ye Chenqing is so annoying!"
"What's wrong?" Ah Xiang wondered, what happened?
"I just don't like her!" Well, Ah Xiang doesn't know what to say anymore.
After serving Shen Ruomeng, Ah Xiang dragged her tired body back to her room, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Xuanyuan Sheng's room with the lights still on, and vaguely saw two figures. Looking at the figures, they should be Xuanyuan Sheng and Du Sheng, who don't sleep at night, lonely men and widows, and don't know what they are doing. Suddenly I thought of something, and I was shocked with goosebumps.
Is this Shen Ruomeng trying to squeeze her dry? The babbling was endless, and it was nothing more than how much he hated Ye Chenqing, and of course Xuanyuan Sheng's goodness, so he tossed it for a few hours. It's not that she hates Shen Ruomeng, after all, it's also because she is simple, and what she wants to say is much better than hiding a knife in some smiles.
When she arrived at the door, she saw Xuanyuan Sheng's door open, and Du Sheng walked out of it, neatly dressed, sure enough, she was thinking too much. Du Sheng also saw her, but ignored her and left directly.
Ah Xiang pushed open the door, and Xiao Tao and Liu Qing were already asleep, but fortunately the candle was not extinguished. Ah Xiang gently closed the door and tied the deadbolt to the door. I looked around and sighed, it seems that I can't take a shower, but fortunately I didn't sweat today. I quickly took off my coat, blew out the candle, and squeezed in. It is indeed a bit cramped to sleep three people in one bed, but fortunately they are all petite. Although it is a little crowded, Ah Xiang does not dislike it, she is originally a casual person, if you are blessed, you can enjoy it, and if you are not blessed, you can suffer.
On the second day, they had breakfast and set out. Ah Xiang noticed that Du Sheng was no longer next to the carriage. Obviously, Ye Chenqing also noticed it, walked up to Xuanyuan Sheng, who was still pondering, and asked, "Where is Du Sheng?"
"Du Sheng was sent by me to run errands."
"Oh, oh" Ye Chenqing didn't continue to ask, and saw Shen Ruomeng come over and turn around and get into the carriage.
Shen Ruomeng saw that Ye Chenqing and Xuanyuan Sheng were talking, and hurried over.
"Brother Sheng!"
Xuanyuan Sheng saw Shen Ruomeng and smiled, "How did you sleep last night?" ”
Shen Ruomeng pouted, "It's not good, the bed board is very hard, and the person covered with the quilt is also very uncomfortable." ”
Xuanyuan Sheng comforted, "It's okay, just wait until you get to Jiangnan." ”
"Hmm!" Shen Ruomeng responded with a smile, "Brother Nasheng, I'm in the car." Xuanyuan Sheng smiled and nodded.
Out of the city, only Ye Chenqing and Liu Qing were talking in the car. Shen Ruomeng was angry when she saw Ye Chenqing, she must have been in no mood to speak, and Ah Xiang and Xiao Tao naturally didn't dare to speak.
"Can you be quiet for a while?" Shen Ruomeng couldn't help it, glared at Ye Chenqing and said.
Liu Qing was so frightened that he was silent, and Ye Chenqing just shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Please, it's our freedom to speak, why don't you tell us not to speak?"
"You're arguing with me!"
"Then you don't have to listen." This Shen Ruomeng has been targeting herself from the beginning, although she has no intention of arguing with her, but it is always boring to be like this.
Shen Ruomeng is not a person who can quarrel with others, and his face was so angry that he was so angry by Ye Chenqing's words that he turned red, but he didn't know how to refute it.
Hearing a quarrel in the carriage, Xuanyuan Sheng ordered someone to stop, rode to the carriage, and lifted the curtain.
"What's wrong?"
Ye Chenqing glanced at Shen Ruomeng on his righteous head, said "nothing" to Xuanyuan Sheng, and turned his head to look out the window, not planning to continue talking to Xuanyuan Sheng.
Xuanyuan Sheng looked at the two people in the car, he knew Chenqing's character, and he must be Ruomeng making trouble unreasonably. But if Meng is the person who has been his sister since childhood, and Chenqing is the object of his heart, he doesn't know what to say for a while. In the end, he just frowned and glanced at Shen Ruomeng and left.
Shen Ruomeng saw that Xuanyuan Sheng was dissatisfied with him, and he was even more angry, but he couldn't vent it, this matter was indeed his own rudeness, so the fire in his stomach could only be pressed in his stomach.
There was complete silence in the car.
After driving for a while, the carriage suddenly stopped, and the sound of fighting was heard outside the carriage.
Ah Xiang looked out of the car, a group of people dressed in black were fighting with Xuanyuan Sheng. Although Xuanyuan Sheng's martial arts are strong, these people are obviously extraordinary, although they have a few people with them, they are not good at each other, and Du Sheng is not there at this time, Xuanyuan Sheng is a little difficult for a while.
Suddenly, an arrow came in the carriage, causing a panic among the people in the carriage, followed by several more shots. An assassin slashed down, shattering the body, and Ah Xiang and the others quickly ran out of the car. It was a cliff, and the Assassins were clearly trying to drive them to the edge.
Xuanyuan Sheng used his sword to fight with five or six people at the same time, but there were a large number of people coming, and the people brought by Xuanyuan Sheng were obviously in a weak position. I saw an assassin stab Ah Xiang with a knife at a guard in front of them, and for a moment blood sprayed everyone behind them. They had never seen such a scene, and everyone was so frightened that their faces turned pale. Just when an assassin on Ye Chenqing's side saw the opportunity to kill Ye Chenqing, fortunately, Xuanyuan Sheng's eyes were quick, but he was still a step slower, and he was only able to block the sword, and he was slashed behind him, and he used the sword in his hand to cut off the man's arm.
Shen Ruomeng saw a shout of "Brother Sheng" and ran in the direction of Xuanyuan Sheng. Xuanyuan Sheng shouted, "Don't come here", but it was obviously too late, and another assassin stabbed Shen Ruomeng with a sword. Ah Xiang's mind was clouded, and she hurriedly rushed over, pushing Shen Ruomeng away, and in order to avoid the assassin's sword, she hurriedly retreated, stepping on the air under her feet, and her whole body actually leaned back.
The feeling of weightlessness gives one the fear of dying. Although I have died once, I am still not used to it when I come back a second time! Ah Xiang lost consciousness after howling "grass mud horse" in her heart.
I don't know how long it took, I opened my eyes with difficulty, but Ah Xiang didn't move, just looked at the clear blue sky above, and her eyes were scattered.
Is this dead or not?
Ah Xiang tried to get up, but the huge pain in her body made her give up struggling. After a while, a little more bearable, Ah Xiang slowly turned sideways, supported the ground with her hands, and stood up with the stinging pain. It's not a thing to lie down all the time.
finally got up, Ah Xiang was already sweating, sweat seeped into the wound, and there was another heart-piercing pain. Looking down at his body, his clothes were torn in several places. The skin on his arms and legs was worn out, revealing bright red flesh, and blood was seeping out of the cracks, presumably rubbing against the stones on the cliff when he fell off the cliff. In addition to the external injury, Ah Xiang felt that the entire abdominal cavity was tingling, and she was afraid that she would hurt her internal organs. Tentatively moved his arms and legs, but fortunately he could still move, but he didn't break it yet, tsk, no one was lucky!
Looking around, there was a river beside him, he should have fallen into the river, and the river buffered so that he didn't fall to his death. Then I floated down the river to the shallows, but where was it? The surrounding bushes are thick, sword mountains and sword trees, there will be no wild beasts! This place is not to stay for long!
Forced to get up, he finally got up, stumbled, and supported the ground with his hands so as not to fall. Raising his hand and looking at the fine gravel that has been inserted into the flesh in the palm of his hand, it really hurts! These sharp edges and corners are really not playful. Simply picked out the stones in the palm of his hand, it was already a blur of flesh and blood, although the pain was abnormal, but Ah Xiang didn't shout pain, just snorted, shouting pain because someone is willing to listen, don't say yes, now there is not even a person, who to shout to? Squat down slowly and wash it with river water, if it is infected, it will not be good.
After the washing, it was difficult to get up again. Carrying a package on his shoulder, there were very few things in it, only a few steamed buns, a piece of clothing, and some small things. Shen Ruomeng had too much luggage, and almost occupied all the places where he could put things, so Ah Xiang had to carry his package on his back. The steamed buns were brought in the inn for fear of being hungry on the road, which were soaked in water, and it is estimated that they cannot be eaten. However, Ah Xiang didn't plan to throw all of these away, in this wilderness, there is something to rely on, not afraid of 10,000, just in case. Just move forward step by step, and the pain of each step makes people dizzy, so I can only take one step and rest.
About an hour later, it was only a few hundred meters away. If you can't get out until dark, you have to find a place to rest quickly. Therefore, Ah Xiang moved forward slowly, but also carefully avoided the tiny branches of the shrubs, and at the same time paid attention to where there was a place to rest.
After walking for a few more hours, I finally saw a cave not far away. Ah Xiang walked forward slowly, slowing her steps. When you get closer, you sneak in and look in, but you can't help it, what if this is where the beasts live? It's better to be careful.
Fortunately, there was nothing inside, and I couldn't see it until I walked in. It's a natural cave, not very big, but it's a little square, but the walls are dry. And it's a secluded place, so it should be safe.
Ah Xiang slowly ripped off the package on her shoulder, put it on the ground, sat on the package herself, and began to think about what she should do next?
He was seriously injured, and he definitely won't be able to go back for a while. If they had waited for themselves to be better, Xuanyuan Sheng and they would have already left. I am just a girl to them, how valuable can a girl's life be? It's not worth saving at all, so you can only save yourself. But how to save it? I definitely can't get out of here today, so I can only stay here for the time being. If you want to stay here alone for a night, in the wilderness, in the dark, how can you survive this!?
Looking down at the large and small wounds on his body, Ah Xiang sighed, and estimated that he would leave a scar. Carefully pick out the small stones in the wound, and after picking them out, they slowly ooze blood outward, mixed with yellow water, which is frightening to see.
Why are you so unlucky? Ah Xiang only wants to cry now, I just hope that I can spend it safely today!
