425 Cold-Blooded
425 cold-blooded
"Sister Lu, there is obviously nothing on your face, it is very smooth and delicate, why do you still have a veil?"
Ignoring the disapproving glances of Gong Xun and Meng Lingdong, he propped his head and asked Lu Mansheng cutely.
Lu Mansheng did not stop eating, and seemed to have been mentally prepared for a long time. This little woman was unusual, and it seemed strange to her that she didn't say or do anything.
"Did I ask you why you wear two strings of bells on your hands?"
"Nope. But if you want to know, I can tell you that I ......."
"I'm sorry, I don't want to know." Lu Mansheng put down his chopsticks, "I won't ask other people's affairs, and I don't want others to ask me." Lu Mansheng put down his chopsticks, carried the package, and followed the guy upstairs.
She is not a martial arts practitioner, and her body is still unbearable for a day's journey, but she doesn't have the energy to deal with such a little girl anymore.
"Am I saying something wrong?" After Lu Mansheng went upstairs, the little mosquito stuck out his tongue and looked at Gong Xun.
If it was usual, Gong Xun would comfort her with a few words, but this time, Gong Xun did think that Wen Xi was too much. She was even more wrong in not taking his warnings to heart.
"I'm sorry, I'm genuinely curious. Everyone in the palace said that Dr. Lu Yu had to be ugly, but what I saw was not the case at all. ”
"How dare you say that?" Gong Xun glanced upstairs, hurting others again and again with other people's wounds, why are there always people who are happy to do such things. Of course, he does not deny that when dealing with certain people. Nor would he rule it out. But this man, he didn't want to be Lu Mansheng.
There's no why, it's just a simple disappointment.
"What I said is true. Is there a scar on a person's face, which can be felt even through a veil, let alone a huge tumor? The third brother can not trust me, but he can't distrust my eyes. "It seems that Lu Mansheng's matter, Wen Xi is very familiar with it. Even the poison tumor on her face is clearly known.
"Are you sure?" Gong Xun looked at Wen Xi, and it didn't seem to be telling a lie.
"I'm pretty sure. The veil, though thick, could not completely obstruct the view. If you look closely, you can still see some of them. And also. Didn't my chopsticks fall to the ground when she was eating earlier, and when I squatted down, I happened to see part of her face. Wen Xi was a little proud. She's so smart. It's not like these careless men can compare.
"So, you've been suspicious of Miss Lu for a long time?" Meng Lingdong was a little displeased, he didn't want this woman to scrutinize Miss Lu like her prisoner.
"Brother Meng, don't be so fierce, I'm just curious, I want to figure out, I didn't commit your taboos, right? If you and the third brother are unhappy, will I not be able to do this next time? "Wenxi's attitude of admitting mistakes is not bad. A fool will not be able to get along with Gong Xun and Meng Lingdong, and he will not know whether he is alive or dead at this time. Isn't it like a fool?
"Are you really sure her face is okay?" Gong Xun didn't know what he was thinking, but from his expression, he obviously cared about this answer very much.
"Actually, it's not difficult to understand this, third brother, when was the last time you saw her face?" Wen Xi didn't answer Gong Xun's questions directly, some words were full, and it hurt to be slapped in the face at that time.
The last time I saw Lu Mansheng's face, it should have been nearly a year ago. At that time, he asked Ling Dong to send the Ice Heart Jade Lotus, although Lu Mansheng insisted on refusing to give it, and later got her by virtue of his own ability.
By the way, with Bingxin Yulian in her hand, coupled with her medical skills, her face may really be able to heal!
"It's been so long, and she's a royal doctor, so it's not surprising that she's cured her face during this time. As for why she was veiled, maybe she had been veiled for too long and had become a habit, but she didn't know how to untie her. Or maybe this veil can solve a lot of troubles for her. In other words, Sister Lu, who healed her face, became a great beauty in one fell swoop. ”
Beauty? No, she doesn't need to be a great beauty who captivates the country and the city, she just needs to be a woman with a normal face, and that's enough.
In an instant, such a sentence poured out of Gong Xun's heart. When he reacted, he startled himself.
"If the third brother really wants to know, I can help you think of a way. I stayed with Sister Lu at night, and while she was asleep, I ......"
"That's enough." Gong Xun's face sank, "You don't have to worry about this matter anymore, and you won't mention this matter again in the future, especially in front of Imperial Doctor Lu, is it clear?" Gong Xun doesn't like his subordinates to guess his thoughts, and he doesn't like to be seen through so easily. Of course, Lu Mansheng's affairs he didn't want to hear them interfere again, and knowing more is also an aspect.
But such a thought, once formed in Gong Xun's mind, can no longer retreat.
Is it difficult to say that Mansheng has really healed his face?
No longer the ugly-faced woman who makes people shy away? Because of that face, he had to keep her out, and once that reason was gone, did that mean......
No, that woman was too untamable and too difficult to control. If he has the heart to think about these things, he might as well think about it to make that woman stop being stubborn and continue to fight against him. His patience with her was really good enough.
"I know, third brother, I will never mention this matter again without your permission in the future." Wen Xi obediently responded, only to make Gong Xun's face a little cloudy.
After eating, they went back upstairs to rest. When I went out, in order to take care of her, Wen Xi and Lu Mansheng lived in one room. Lu Mansheng did not give an opinion on this matter, Gong Xunming sent this girl to stare at her, why did she do something she knew she couldn't do?
Wen Xi went upstairs and came to Lu Mansheng's bedside lightly to see if she had slept.
Lu Mansheng's eyes were closed, and she didn't open them even when she walked in.
"Sister Lu, have you slept?"
Lu Mansheng didn't open his eyes, simply ignoring her.
"I can't sleep yet, I want to talk to you, I'm sorry for what happened down there. It's me who has too much to do. ”
Wen Xi knew that Lu Mansheng hadn't slept yet, but she refused to open her eyes, and she couldn't help it. Said what he was going to say. Go back to bed and lie down.
After a night of silence, Lu Mansheng didn't even turn over, just lay there, so quiet that Wen Xi felt a little incredible.
The next day, Lu Man woke up at dawn.
I opened the door and walked out. As soon as she went out, Wen Xi, who had been sleeping very deeply a moment ago. I immediately opened my eyes.
The inn's kitchen was already busy, with the lights lit and making breakfast for the store's guests. Lu Mansheng went to the kitchen. I took a few slices of pork belly and went back to the house.
Then go back to bed and continue sleeping. What she didn't say was when she was sleeping. A furoshiki placed next to the pillow. There has been movement. This movement was not caused by something else, it was Ah Cao who was packed in her baggage. I guess I was too hungry to peck it with its pointed mouth, but I was careful not to make any sound.
After the meat was thrown in, there was finally no movement in the baggage, and only the sound of Ah Cao swallowing the pork belly could be faintly heard. She didn't think that Ah Cao's matter could be hidden from Wen Xi, and the girl might have thoroughly checked the contents of her bag while she was away.
But. It's good that Ah Cao has eased up so quickly. I thought it was eating so well that it would take at least two or three days to recover. From this point of view alone, Ah Cao is a little stronger than his mother, Ah Hua, and for no reason, Lu Mansheng feels a little proud.
I slept for another half a while, and when it was dawn, Wen Xi called her up. After just a while, she fell asleep again. Lu Mansheng was surprised, she usually didn't sleep so dead, as long as the slightest movement, she would wake up, let alone sleep in the same room with a Wen Xi who made her guard?
What's going on?
Looking at Wen Xi, Wen Xi smiled and leaned over with her little face. "Sister Lu is really tired, I called you several times, but you didn't wake up."
Is that so?
After eating breakfast, and adding water and food to the inn, the group continued on their way. Walking out of the land for less than three or two miles, I met the big man I met at the inn yesterday.
The big man was fighting with more than a dozen gangs, and Bai Yibai said that those dozen people should be from the Haisha Gang, and only the Haisha Gang would draw a fish on their belts.
And among this group of fighters, there is also a big car, and the purpose of their fight should be for that car.
"The surname is Hai, this dart belongs to my brother, you killed someone and took the dart, I want to seek justice for my brother today!"
It turned out that the Haisha Gang robbed a dart a while ago, and not only robbed the dart, but also killed people. This man had come to avenge his brother's dart, and although he was dead, his brother was still there. As long as he is there, he will not let his brother die like this, nor will he be discredited.
Darts are in people, darts are dead, this has always been the rule of many darts industry. Rather than avenging his brother, the first thing this man had to do was to send the dart to the place where the dart man was going.
"Just those two of you, you still want to avenge your brother? Your brother, he still boasts of flying to the sky, I think he flies to the dog. In a few strokes, he was beaten to death, and we brothers didn't hold a single punch. Hahaha-ha
Such words filled the entire forest, and the big man was so angry that he screamed so angrily that his eyes were red. Carrying a board axe, he slashed and chopped down two people, but soon, he was at a disadvantage, and he was kicked in the head by the leader of the Haisha Gang, and he was so dizzy that he couldn't even stand steadily.
On the other side, playing a game of punching and kicking, the big man was as clumsy as a cow, his eyes were completely swollen, and he was bloody, and he couldn't see the front or the people around him at all, and he could only hear the group of people laughing around him.
Meng Lingdong frowned, these people are inevitably too deceitful, if they want to kill or scrape, they will come directly, why do they deliberately insult others like this? Presumably, his brother was humiliated to death by them in this way.
The big man was completely tricked around, and he could only chop frantically with an axe in the east and a hammer in the west. And the shrimp soldiers and crab generals of the Haisha Gang fled quickly every time, and when he didn't have the strength to swing, they ran over and kicked him a few times. The big man used too much force, and the man fell to the ground, and a dozen pairs of feet followed him in a swarm, killing him. While kicking, he also yelled at the stupid pig.
Meng Lingdong finally couldn't help it, lifted his sword, flew away, and fell around them.
"It's too late to get out of here, or you'll die!"
"Well, there's another nosyman! Brothers, come on! "Meng Lingdong is the number one master of the Dayao Dynasty, just these guys, where is his opponent, it will be solved in three or two clicks, those people ran fast, and when they were all far away, Meng Lingdong leaned down and pulled up the big man.
"The dart cart has been snatched back, you can recuperate, and send it to your friend." As he spoke, he took out the best golden medicine from his bosom and handed it to the big man.
Although the big man didn't have any senses, he also knew that he was saved by this benevolent father, and if it weren't for him today, he might not even have his life, let alone help his brother fulfill his wish.
Such a big man knelt down in front of Meng Lingdong with a flutter and kowtowed three times in a row. Meng Lingdong froze in place, waiting for the big man to get up and pull the dart cart away with difficulty before coming back.
"Actually, he is also a good man who values love and righteousness." Who's to say it's not? In order to help his brother avenge his wish and fulfill his wishes, he can lose his life. Maybe you will say that he is impulsive and stupid, but no one can deny his uprightness and sincerity!
And among them, Meng Lingdong is the only one who can help this big man without any doubts. There are not a few people with martial arts, and Meng Lingdong is by no means the only one who has the ability to make a move, but even when they see such a scene, there is no trace of fluctuation in their eyes.
This may be the biggest difference between Meng Lingdong and them.
Meng Lingdong is a subordinate, they are dead soldiers.
The dead do not need emotion, they only need to carry out orders. No matter what kind of face they appear in the sun, they can't hide the essence of their dead soldiers.
Gong Xun didn't say anything, Meng Lingdong was by his side, and he was different from others. He is the guardian of Lord Meng with a knife in front of the emperor, and he has been ordered to protect Gong Xun in the past, and he is sent by the emperor, not just a slave of Gong Xun alone, let alone a dead soldier.
Although, Meng Lingdong's loyalty to Gong Xun is no less than that of any person.
This scene did not affect the mood of the big guys, Wen Xi chattered along the way and shared interesting stories along the way, teasing the two brothers, Bai Yibai and Bai Yihei. Occasionally turned the topic to Gong Xun, the third brother and the third brother shouted, and Gong Xun also talked to her with great interest.
To say that among these people, Wen Xi is probably the most fearful of Meng Lingdong. She dared to talk to Gong Xun casually, at least on the surface, but she was very restrained towards Meng Lingdong. This point really makes Lu Mansheng very curious.
