The late autumn when the grass and trees are falling, and the twilight when the sun is like blood. In this uninhabited barren mountain, now there is a person kneeling in front of a lonely grave and said softly: "Mother, time flies so fast, a year has passed in such a blink of an eye, three years ago the child did not have the ability to participate in the medicine king competition, so he ignored me, these two years of the child's hard work, finally broke out of some fame, he also noticed me, a few days ago he came to persuade me to participate in next year's medicine king competition, the child has promised him, when the child is famous, I will definitely let him come here to kowtow to you to admit his mistakes, In order to repay my Pei family's years of nurturing grace. Another thing is that you say that all men in the world are negative people, and what you say is not credible. You said that betrayal is always the most affectionate person, so many years the child is alone and wandering around, every night the child is always unable to sleep, looking back on the past is always blank! But just a few days ago, the child met two people in Yichun Hall, although they have only been together for a few days, but they treat me as a friend, I guess they should know my past, but they don't look at me with strange eyes like others, and there is no pity in their eyes, the child is very confused now, I don't know what to do! One of them is honest and honest, the other is scathing, and they are also candidates to participate in this Medicine King Competition, and they are now learning how to refine medicine under Mo Qianqiu with their children. Although I have only been with them for a few days, I can feel that we are supposed to be the same kind of people, and each of them has a side behind them that is not humane, so the child does not know if he can really melt into them! ”

The stars outside the house were dotting, the candles in the house were flickering, Wen Ziqi was holding a scroll of classics in his hand and looking at it quietly in the candlelight, Ling Haoran who was not far away was pounding something with a medicine pestle, and he was complaining while pounding his mouth: "It's strange to say, I do it step by step according to Lao Pei's steps according to the gourd painting scoop, why can't I come here?" Could it be that Lao Pei did it too fast and I missed any key steps? ”

Wen Ziqi shook his head when he heard this, then put down the book in his hand and looked at the dark outside, and said thoughtfully: "Listen to your words, you are still there complaining that Lao Pei is doing it too fast!" ”

Ling Haoran shook his head and said, "That's not it, I just think that something that sounds so simple, why is it so difficult to get into my hands." ”

Wen Ziqi smiled and said: "With my understanding of you, you won't be resentful about this, but Lao Pei seems to think that you are really angry, have you noticed that Lao Pei has been restless since the morning, and he doesn't seem to be able to concentrate on anything!" ”

Ling Haoran didn't raise his head to say "um", and then continued: "Why can you be angry, it's not a big deal, but we'll pretend to be angry later, don't show it, you said that he was uneasy, I can see it, and it's not good to ask, it should be something, I went out on leave early this afternoon, and I haven't seen him back yet!" ”

Wen Ziqi suddenly realized after hearing this: "Oh, yes, I said why didn't I see it at dinner, it turned out that I went out on leave!" I thought it was because I wasn't feeling well, so I went back to rest! After saying that, he stood up and walked in front of Ling Haoran, looked at it, and hurriedly let go. Exclaimed, "What are you doing here?" ”

Ling Haoran shook the pestle mortar in his hand and said, "Grinding powder, what else can you do?" ”

Wen Ziqi sighed and said, "Grinding medicine, you want to grind medicine, how long will you take this?" Let's go, I'll go with you to bring the medicine mill over. As soon as the two of them went out, they saw a person rushing in from the outside, and the three of them almost collided, Wen Ziqi looked up and looked, wasn't it Pei Yuanting who the two were still talking about just now?

Pei Yuanting saw that the two of them looked as if they were going out, so he asked, "It's so late, where are you two going?" ”

Ling Haoran looked at Pei Yuanting and said angrily: "Go and move the medicine mill, what else can you do, is it possible to go out to look for you?" ”

Pei Yuanting knew that Ling Haoran was angry because of today's refining of medicine, so he said, "Really? Then you two don't have oral administration, I have the roast chicken I just bought here, and it seems that I can only eat it by myself. ”

Ling Haoran glanced at the oil paper package in Pei Yuanting's hand and said, "You bought it for me?" Don't think that a roast chicken will heal the wounds in my heart. I've never suffered such a great humiliation, and you've heard Old Man Mo's words, what is chewed out with my mouth is better than what I pounded out with my hands. ”

After hearing this, Pei Yuanting said with a smile: "I didn't buy it for you, who else can I buy it for?" I have long known that a roast chicken is difficult to heal your inner wounds, so I bought two and a gourd peach blossom stuff, these three things are always fine. , As for Old Man Mo saying that his chewing is more delicate than you, then the subordinate is nonsense. But then again, it's the first time I've seen a powder as rough as yours. Said Ba actually laughed back and forth. Then he walked past the two of them into the house, put the package on the table, and looked at the two of them at the door.

Seeing this, Wen Ziqi also turned around and came to the table, reached out and picked up the tea cup on the table, splashed the tea on the ground, handed it to Pei Yuanting, and said: "Indeed, you can't say that, fortunately, the medicine that I have been hard to pound in the morning is more delicate than chewing, isn't it?" You bought two roast chickens, do you have anything else to eat? As he spoke, he reached out to untie the wrapped string.

Ling Haoran looked at the second question who had already started eating and drinking, which was called an anger. Closing the door casually, he also sat at the table and reached out to tear a chicken leg and gnaw it, and muttered without eating two bites: "I will forgive you this time, and next time it will not be solved by roast chicken." ”

Pei Yuanting smiled: "That's natural, how can you just roast the chicken!" ”

Desert yellow sand, during the day here is like a blazing sun, at night here is cool and a little biting, in this endless desert everything seems to be still, can only look at a few weeds by the starlight. Even the most tenacious and resilient weed in the desert is now withered and scorched, and even if the wind blows, no one knows whether it will be able to dance with the wind again.

Shen Tian licked his chapped lips, he wanted to drink water, picked up the kettle and shook it gently, ""Whoa, la, la" only has a small half pot of water, and in desperation, he can only hang the kettle back to his waist with a wry smile, this little bit of water is not yet the time to drink, now the night is deep It is a good time to rush to the desert, as long as the sun comes out tomorrow, the wind in the desert is hot, and if you take a sip, you feel that the internal organs are like fire, and if you don't have this water at that time, it is estimated that it will be difficult to get through! Looking back at the people behind him, one by one drooping their heads and moving forward step by step, where the road ahead is, everyone doesn't care, for them now there is only one thought.

Going home, Shen Tian walked over and reached out to pick up the rope on the ground and put it on his shoulder, and slowly walked forward, it turned out that the other end of the rope was a deputy stretcher, and the man lying on the stretcher was Ling Xiao, the man on the platform that day. At this time, Ling Xiao was lying on the stretcher, his eyes were closed, his face was pale, his only hand was also wrapped in a white cloth, his legs were even more bloodstained for two days, and the blood was slowly seeping out in some places, followed by Shen Tian was a strong man with a big waist and a round waist and a height of eight feet.

The strong man's body is also covered with bandages, his eyes have been bandaged with steps, and blood drops are dripping down from time to time, and there is also a rope on his shoulders that is the same as Shen Tian, and there is also a stretcher behind the rope, and there is also a person lying on the stretcher, looking back along the stretcher, there are thirty or forty people, each of whom is pulling a stretcher. The crowd was silent, and walked slowly forward. In the battle of Mochizuki, the Tiger Ben army defeated miserably, and there should have been a backup team to meet them, but it has been two days and no one has come on horseback. Staying in Mochizuki will drain them of their last bit of life, and only when they return to the station, these seriously injured soldiers have any hope of survival. Maybe a journey of two or three hundred miles was nothing to them in the past, but now they are no longer the same as they used to be, one by one, they are seriously injured, not to mention that they have to drag one behind them, but as a member of the Tiger Army, they are not allowed to abandon their siblings in their bones. Even if it is a difficult and dangerous road, you must bring them back. Although it was night, they were confident that in the near future, they would be able to see the light of dawn illuminate this bitter cold land!
