Chapter 131: Reflection
After dawn, Yu Xiaoxiu and Xia Mingming woke up one after another, only Jingchen was still unconscious and started a fever.
Yu Shu probably told them the truth about Bi Qing and Qiu Biao's gang to rob the merchant ship, and without giving them time to calm down, he assigned a task to the two of them, letting Xia Mingming stay in the cave to take care of Jingchen, and she and Yu Xiaoxiu went out to find food.
After hearing Yu Shu's arrangement, Xia Mingming was unhappy and said, "I want to go with you." ”
Yu Shu was in a dull mood because of Jingchen's injury, and he didn't have a good face for her, "What are you going to do, do you know how to climb trees, do you know how to catch fish, stay here honestly, and be optimistic about Jingchen." ”
Xia Mingming glanced at Jing Chen, who was lying on the ground covered with his coat, and pouted, "Everyone is a girl, you leave me with him, what is this like, anyway, he won't run around when he's unconscious, let him be here alone." ”
Hearing this, Yu Shu's face suddenly showed a fierce color, and he said coldly: "If you don't want to take it here, just get out of here." ”
Xia Mingming's two big eyes widened, he couldn't believe that Yu Shu was talking to her like this, and Yu Xiaoxiu on the side was also surprised, his sister rarely spoke with a straight face, usually with a hippie smile, and she was kind to this Xia Mingming along the way. ‘
Xia Mingming is a little willful, but fortunately, she still knows how to read her face, and when she saw that Yu Shu was really angry, she endured her grievances, stomped her feet, gritted her teeth and said to Yu Shu: "I, can't I look at him!" ”
Yu Shu snorted coldly, picked up the hollowed out leather bag on the ground, hung up the ancient sword, and dragged Yu Xiaoxiu away, Jinbao flicked his tail and followed.
Xia Mingming sat on the ground angrily, picked up a branch, poked the ground hard, with a trace of crying, and scolded with a flat mouth: "Stinky Ah Shu, bad Ah Shu, stupid, fool!" ”
***
Yu Xiaoxiu came from a hard life since he was a child, climbed a tree and took out a bird's egg, naturally it was not a problem, Yu Shu found a few pomegranate trees in the forest, picked a bag and put it in the jacket that Yu Xiaoxiu took off, carried it on his back, and found a stream in the forest, the two of them drank a few sips happily, washed their faces, and took a bag of water in a leather bag and brought it back.
Yu Shu originally wanted to catch a fish and go back to roast, but when he actually operated it, he found that it was not so easy, there were fish in the stream, but one was more slippery than the other, and the sisters and brothers were busy for a long time, but they couldn't catch one, so they had to collect the stall and go back.
Xia Mingming saw them come back, he didn't say a word, he stumbled on the ground with a branch, Yu Shu ignored her, gave Yu Xiaoxiu the flint and let him make a fire, she helped Jingchen up, let him pill on her lap, and took a leather bag to feed water to his mouth.
After that, he broke the pomegranate again, washed his fingers, pinched and dripped them into his mouth, and the other hand was cool on his hot forehead, hoping that he would be more comfortable.
Xia Mingming secretly glanced over, seeing her taking care of Jingchen so carefully, thinking that Yu Shufang scolded her because of Jingchen, she didn't feel good in her heart, and couldn't help but say loudly:
"Why are you so nice to him?"
Xia Mingming didn't know that Yu Shu and Jing Chen had known each other before, but if he was a passerby who was fished out of the river halfway, it was not as long as she and Yu Shu had known each other.
Yu Shu broke the pomegranate seeds, and said without raising his head: "If you don't have anything to do, go out to collect firewood." ”
Xia Mingming broke the branch in his hand, got up and walked out.
Yu Xiaoxiu saw that she was gone, so he asked Yu Shu in a whisper: "Sister, what should we do in the future?" ”
"Get out of here and find the capital on your way."
"Shall we go to the capital?"
"Why don't you go?" Yu Shu asked rhetorically.
Yu Xiaoxiu said with a righteous face: "Uncle Bi - Boss Bi and Captain Qiu are bad people, they have killed so many people, Mr. Pei and they don't know what to do, shouldn't we go back and expose them?" ”
Yu Shu shook his head and smiled, looked up at him, and educated: "My stupid brother, can you tell right and wrong clearly with one mouth, we have no power and no power, what can we use to expose them?" That Bi Qing is the younger brother of another deputy head of the Taiheng Chamber of Commerce, he did these bad things, his eldest brother may not be unclear, who knows that there are other people mixed with Lu Dao here, a few of us can escape, it is already a fluke, and then send it to the door, isn't it looking for someone to be killed. ”
Yu Xiaoxiu was dumbfounded and said, "Then, let them get away with it?" ”
Yu Shu said expressionlessly: "They will always have retribution." ”
This catastrophe, she calculated in advance, but she still didn't dodge, fell to this point, fled in embarrassment, and injured Jingchen, the reason for this is that her biggest mistake is that she only cares about calculating the disaster, but she does not calculate people's hearts.
At this point, Bi Qing taught her a solid lesson, and let her know what it means to separate the human heart from the belly.
Bi Qing's superficial kung fu is too good, she never suspected that he had a problem from beginning to end, now that she thinks about it, this is all her preconceived notions, because Bi Qing is polite to her, she thinks he is kind, because Bi Qing saved Jingchen, she thinks he is a good person, because Bi Qing has had a few quarrels with Qiu Biao, she feels that they are not in harmony, and delusionally wants to use Bi Qing to deal with Qiu Biao, who knows that Lu Dao is the most ruthless and falls into prison after falling into prison.
Before this, she always thought that when she mastered the disaster, she would be able to avoid the disaster, but now it seems that she really thinks too simply, Master Qingzheng's words are right, the disaster can be avoided and cannot be eliminated, and there will be one less disaster today, who knows if Lu Dao will return it in the future.
If she decisively chose to avoid Qiu Biao's conspiracy after discovering Qiu Biao's conspiracy, instead of staying recklessly to deal with him, it would be a different situation now.
Thinking too highly of herself, the result is a terrible fall, she should lower herself and look up what she is about to face.
However, it's not for nothing, at least let her reunite with Jingchen along the way, otherwise it will be really difficult for her to rest assured that his stupid appearance falls into the hands of others.
Yu Shu lowered his head, stroked Jingchen's scattered hair, and gradually revealed a wry smile.
She can now be sure that Jing Chen has not met his lifebreaker, and this time the ship robbery has nothing to do with him, but this does not mean that he has not troubled others, and the first person to bear the brunt should be Xia Mingming.
Although she didn't want to admit that it was Jingchen's Ji Duxing who was doing the trouble, it was clear that after Jingchen got on the ship, Xia Mingming calculated that the merchant ship had been robbed and went to find Bi Qing, but was knocked unconscious by Qiu Biao and put in a wooden barrel with rancid water, almost suffocating to death.
It can be seen that Xia Mingming is not only not Jingchen's lifebreaker, but also the most powerful one who was defeated by him this time.
Again, it was her and Yu Xiaoxiu, who didn't jump ship at the last moment to escape, and what awaited them was also a dead word.
Yu Shu's eyes darkened, looking at Jing Chen's sleeping face, her mood was very complicated, on the one hand, she regarded Jing Chen as a friend and couldn't let go of him, on the other hand, she clearly knew his fate, and she was really worried.
Emotionally, she really can't leave him in this situation, but intellectually, for the sake of safety, she should choose to stay away from him, she is not alone, and Xiao Xiu has to take care of.
Looking back, when Jing Chen told her the secret of his murder Ji Duxing in Yiyang City, she was ashamed to say that she didn't care, which was really ridiculous.
How did she know what kind of fate Lu Dao Jingchen was carrying, the closer he was to the person, the more he would harm that person, he didn't do anything wrong, but he had to bear the responsibility, how innocent, but helpless, what kind of pathetic this should be.
Thinking of Jing Chen, who said to her lightly in that small alley at dusk, "Farewell", Yu Shu's chest felt stuffy.
She thought, maybe amnesia is a good thing for Jingchen.
Yu Shu's eyes brightened again, she said that she would protect him, how could she not believe her words, at least until he remembered everything, she would not leave him alone.
If you're unlucky, you're unlucky, she has the ability to judge misfortune, it's a big deal to count a few more times a day, watch him carefully.
***
Xia Mingming came back from picking up branches outside, and found that Yu Shu's mood had improved, which was manifested in a simple title:
"Obviously, what you picked up is not called firewood, but a stick."
Although it was mockery, it sounded much more pleasant, Xia Mingming put the things in his hand on the ground and said, "It's not all wood, what's the difference." ”
"Then you and I have the same nose and two eyes, and there is no difference between the two of us?"
Xia Mingming said confidently: "Of course there is a difference between the two of us, I am a girl, and you are a man." ”
Yu Shu was wrapping mud on the bird's egg, and when she heard this, she almost crushed the egg, she looked up at the little girl in front of her with a strange expression, and thought:
This stupid girl, I still don't know that I'm a woman.
Yu Xiaoxiu snickered on the side, plucking the pomegranate and feeding it to Jinbao.
Xia Mingming was embarrassed by Yu Shu's staring, lowered his head and whispered, "What are you doing looking at people like this?" ”
Yu Shu said casually: "Look at how beautiful you look." ”
Xia Mingming's face flushed, and he said in a mosquito voice: "Rhetoric." ”
Yu Shu smiled, noncommittal, and asked instead: "By the way, obviously, you are so easy to learn, can you calculate when we can get to the capital." ”
She was very interested in Xia Mingming's Yishu, she was not abrupt when she was on the boat, and now she picked up this girl's life, so she asked what was wrong.
"This" Xia Mingming's face was embarrassed, and under Yu Shu's expectant gaze, he said: "I, I don't have divination things, so I can't count it like this." ”
Yu Shu knew that she was talking nonsense, she glanced at Xia Mingming meaningfully, and suddenly said, "You can't count, then I'll calculate it." ”
Hearing Yu Shu say this, Xia Mingming burst out laughing, when she was joking, this divination, how could everyone know.
Yu Shu stuffed the bird's eggs into the fire pit, went out to wash her hands, and when she came back, she picked up three copper plates from the pile of debris she had fallen to the ground, put them in the palm of her hand and rubbed them, calmed down, asked a hexagram, and threw them down with shaking hands.
Xia Mingming watched her movements carefully, and his face was suspicious: "Who are you?" ”
Yu Shu nodded at the copper coins on the ground, "Don't you recognize it, this is the Liuyao hexagram." ”
"Huh?"
Yu Shu threw the copper plate in his hand and read in his mouth: "With a throw, the yin and yang will be overturned." ”
When Xia Mingming heard these two mantras, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he sat up from the ground: "You, will you break the law six times?" ”
"I will." Yu Shu's words were categorical, from the first day she saw Xia Mingming, she could see that she was not interested in the Six Masters Technique.
When the words fell, Xia Mingming rushed to Yu Shu, grabbed her sleeve, and said excitedly:
"Teach me!"
