Chapter 193: The Knife
In the scars, I couldn't tell whether it was my own blood or the blood of the enemy, and all I saw was red, as if there was only this one color left in heaven and earth.
Wei Xi and Xiao Ran were back to back, they handed over their rear to each other, both of them were scarred, behind them, were the women and children in the cottage, hugging in a group, trembling at the boss they had always felt that they had not been easy to approach, carrying knife after knife, buying time for them.
The bloody men in the stockade have almost all died, only Wei Xi and Xiao Ran are left, facing the still large number of Ma Teng people, they do not flinch, as long as they do not fall, they will not allow Ma Teng people to spread wild here.
However, they were outnumbered, no matter how strong the two of them were, in the face of a huge gap in numbers, the two of them could no longer support it.
What Wei Xi was thinking at that time, he had long forgotten, but he didn't expect that there would be a brother who died with him, and he would definitely not be too lonely on the Huangquan Road.
The two of them were covered in blood and suddenly full of pride, and they only had one thought in their hearts, killing one was enough, killing two was profitable, even if they were going to die, they would have to drag a few more Ma Teng people down!
However, the army of the Li Dynasty finally appeared, and the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance, and the Ma Teng people suddenly retreated, they took such a big risk to come over, and they didn't even take a small cottage, and lost a lot of people in vain, this deal is not cost-effective.
So, the Ma Teng people quickly stopped, they didn't plan to explain here.
Wei Xi and Xiao Ran poked the big knife in their hands on the ground, barely supporting their bodies, and the two of them struggled to raise their eyes to look at each other. The blood obscured their vision, and the hand holding the knife was shaking. But it didn't stop the two from laughing uncontrollably.
Survive? They survived?! It was good luck that the army arrived in such a timely manner. It's just wonderful.
Wei Xi was a little prostrate, if it wasn't for Xiao Ran today, he wouldn't have survived no matter what, let alone the old and young behind him, it was impossible to survive.
The army was about to arrive, Xiao Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to say something to Wei Xi, but suddenly saw a person behind him, who was clearly not wearing Ma Tengren's clothes. Holding a bright knife, he rushed towards Wei Xi.
Xiao Ran's strength was already overdrawn, and his movements were a little sluggish, he knew that Wei Xi was the same, and it was definitely too late to remind him again, so Xiao Ran didn't think about it, and also rushed in the direction of Wei Xi......
This was the last picture Wei Xi saw before he lost consciousness, Xiao Ran suddenly rushed to his side, and then there was a sharp pain, he didn't know anything......
When Weysey woke up again. Lying in a peasant house, there was an old doctor beside him, who seemed to be talking something, but he couldn't hear it clearly. The pain in his body invaded his spirit in waves, leaving his consciousness extremely dizzy, but he still remembered. What about copycats? What about the women and children? What about Xiao Ran......?
A long wound was cut on the side of his waist, and his intestines flowed out. The old doctor said that if he didn't wake up. That was his creation, and now that Wei Xi woke up, he could only lie there and feel the torment of pain.
Wei Xi didn't know who found the old doctor, where it was, he could only lie down, sometimes awake, sometimes unconscious, and after a while, Wei Xi finally saw the second person besides the old doctor.
That should be the person of the Li Dynasty army, the clothes on his body Wei Xi saw Xiao Ran passing through, the man didn't walk in, just stood at the door, with the light on his back, Wei Xi tilted his head, but he couldn't see his appearance clearly.
"General Xiao died, he was killed by the spies who infiltrated your cottage, and his knife passed through the general's body and slashed at you, so that you could pick up a life."
"But the general died, in order to save you, he didn't care about his life so much...... I secretly got you out, otherwise, you will also die, but I don't want the general's death to be meaningless, but I don't want to see you again, after you are injured, it's best not to appear in the Northern Desert again, appear in front of me......"
**************************
Wei Xi used this life to find out the cottage where Ma Teng was put in, and he was alone, turned into a blood butcher knife, and then left the Northern Desert.
It's the same everywhere, it doesn't matter what he does, he is alone, maybe in his life, people can only meet such a good friend, for Wei Xi, it is even more rare.
This life was saved by Xiao Ran, he will try his best to live, just like the person once said, he can't let Xiao Ran's death be meaningless.
But what Wei Xi wants to live, he doesn't know himself, it's okay to be a head catcher, and it doesn't matter if he is a nurse, but Wei Xi never thought that one day, he would return to the Northern Desert, and he could meet Xiao Ran's child, stand in front of him and ask him how Xiao Ran died.
Wei Xi told everything he knew, meticulously, completely, he had no qualifications to conceal it, the knife carved from a rare blood-red stone was in Xiao Ge's hand at this moment.
This stone is very beautiful, but surprisingly hard, at that time Xiao Ran boasted to him, saying that he was a good hand at carving, he didn't believe it, so the two made a bet to see who was more capable of carving, but it turned out that he had won, Xiao Ran had to let him carve it to play.
"Carving what?"
"Knife, aren't you called a blood butcher knife? If the stone is red, carve a knife, and whoever dares to provoke you in the future, you will just take one and throw it over, and it will be regarded as your mark. ”
"......, then I can only use it for carving this thing for the rest of my life."
……
Xiao Ge listened to Wei Xi's words, the tent was quiet and suffocating, his father, in the end, protected the people of the Li Dynasty from Ma Teng, and protected the best friends he recognized, as the general of the Li Dynasty, his father did the right thing, but as a father, Xiao Ge regretted in his heart that he could not accompany him.
Xiao Ge handed over the red stone knife, "This, it's still the thing to the original owner." He didn't have any grudges against Wei Xi, his father's temperament, he knew since he was a child, as long as he felt that it was worth it, it would definitely be worth it.
Wei Xi stretched out his hand to take it, and the small stone knife seemed to be extremely heavy......
Xiao Ge gave up the place to Wei Xi, maybe he needed to be quiet at the moment, Xiao Ge walked to Su Nian's tent, and from a distance, he heard the sound of Xiao Cui collapsing inside.
"Miss! I don't want to marry! Xiaocui has said that when Miss gets married, Xiaocui will marry when she gets married! If the young lady is in a hurry, she will marry to the Qing Palace! ”
Xiao Ge's face darkened, what is the situation?
"Xiaocui, I'm going to get married, how pitiful Xuan Yi is, the person Xuan Yi wants to marry is you, think about it, you have called 'Brother Xuan Yi' for so many years, can you bear to disappoint him?"
“…… Bear with it, Miss can't bear to let us down, what can't Xiaocui bear. ”
Su Nian has been stagnant, and this Xiaocui herself has been trained too well, and she is completely intelligent, quick-witted, calm and careful.
"Xiaocui, if you want to think like this, Xuan Yi has no father and mother since he was a child, and he has been displaced, so it is easy to have a desire for home at this time, and he wants to marry you, such a small extravagant hope, you really can't bear to fulfill him?"
"......, Miss, don't say it, Xiaocui just said a word, Miss doesn't marry, Xiaocui will accompany you, King Qing ...... there, Xiaocui can only be said to be unblessed."
"Why are you so brainless! What does it matter to you whether I marry or not! ”
"How does it not matter? If you don't get married, Xiaocui is gone, who will serve you! ”
There was no sound in the tent again, Xiao Ge touched his chin outside the tent, thought about it seriously, and then walked over.
"Lord Xiao." Thorn Ping and Ah Lian on the side first spotted Xiao Ge and hurriedly bowed their heads to say goodbye, while Su Nian and Xiao Cui were still staring at each other there, with expressions of no weakness.
Su Nian was tired and blinked, "What do you have to tell Lord Xiao?" ”
"You've rested here for a few days, it's time to go back to Beijing."
Su Nian nodded, "Indeed, this time has bothered Lord Xiao, so we will leave immediately." ”
"Xiaocui won't leave."
Xiao Cui tilted her head, there was a stubbornness in her eyes that she had never seen before, she knew that after Su Nian went back, she would definitely start to marry herself.
Su Nian's face sank, "Reason? ”
"Xiaocui don't go back, after I go back, Miss won't want me anymore."
Xiao Cui's mouth flattened a few times, but she couldn't hold back, staring in one direction on the ground, her eyes motionless.
"Xiaocui knows that even if Xiaocui is not there, there are Thorn Ping, there are Ah Lian, and there are other people who will take care of Miss, but they are not Xiaocui, Miss is not married, there is no dependence, Xiaocui can not rest assured, if Miss wants to live the days of Niujia Village again, without Xiaocui by her side, what can I do......"
Su Nian looked at Xiao Cui's side face, tears slipped down and dripped down her chin to the ground, Xiao Cui had never cried in front of everyone like this, aggrieved, and full of worry.
Su Nian also wanted to cry, crying for her to have such a person by her side, but Xiao Ge watched from the side, it didn't seem good to cry like this, Su Nian walked over and slowly hugged Xiao Cui, she still found someone to marry, so that Xiao Cui could marry Xuan Yi with peace of mind.
Why didn't the women of ancient times believe that she could live well even if she was alone? Su Nian was a little helpless, but she couldn't use her life to prove that she could do it, because what she was carrying now was not her own future, and Xiaocui's concept could not be changed......
Xiao Ge, who was standing on the side, did not change his face, and when he saw Su Nian's helpless expression, he suddenly felt a little moved, is it an opportunity? Su Nian is planning to get married? That's very suitable, no matter what it is, it's very suitable, not bad, after he went back, he decided to add a heavy dowry to Xiaocui, this girl is really very sweet. (To be continued......)
