Chapter 22: Breaking Out of the Encirclement (II)
The early morning sun shone warmly on Ouyang He's clean face through the window of the stone house, and she slowly opened her eyes under the stimulation of the sunlight, and then a coughing sound alarmed an old man who was decocting medicine in the other room. "Girl, are you awake?" An old man dressed plainly and kindly walked out from the back room with a bowl of steaming decoction, and when he saw Ouyang He, whose eyes were still a little confused, he showed a caring and relieved smile.
"This is ......" Ouyang He carefully recalled the scene of last night, and then quickly realized that the old man in front of him should be the owner of this stone house, "Did you save us last night?" I don't know how the other son-in-law who is with me is doing now, can you please tell me? ”
"Girl, please rest assured, although that son's injury is not light, but fortunately, I still have a few herbs here to stop the bleeding and replenish his qi in time, supplemented by the delivery of true qi, I believe that he will recover quickly in time." The old man said in a kind tone.
"Well, thank you, your life-saving grace is remembered by the little girl, and she will definitely repay it in the future!" Ouyang He thanked the old man in a grateful tone, and the old man turned around and left after gently telling Ouyang He to have a good rest. Looking at the old man's thin back, Ouyang He lay on the bed with both gratitude and a trace of worry, she was afraid that if the Tubo soldiers found here, the kind-hearted old man would not be innocently implicated because he helped them.
Ouyang He thought about it and fell asleep involuntarily due to tiredness again, the old man quietly walked to Ouyang He's bed with a knife wrapped in strips of cloth in his hand, and when Ouyang He was sleeping with even breathing, he carefully put the handle of this knife in Ouyang He's hand. Seeing that the moment the handle of the knife touched Ouyang He's fingertips, the old man immediately felt an extraordinary scorching true qi flowing down the blade from Ouyang He's body to his hand, making him a little difficult to parry for a while. "When I used her skills to heal her injuries last night, I felt that this girl was not very human, she would never be wrong, what she contained in her body was the qi of the soul of the ancient emperor, could it be that there was such a coincidence in the world, the baby from eighteen years ago was her......" The old man felt a little surprised and happy for a while, but the stakes were very high, and he didn't dare to make a conclusion before he was completely sure, so he sighed and left the room where Ouyang He was again with this mysterious sword.
After a while, Ling Rui gradually woke up, and after drinking the decoction that the old man had instructed him to drink, he forcibly endured the pain that came from his back from time to time and came to Ouyang He's bedside softly. Looking at the beautiful face sleeping peacefully in front of him, thinking that the seemingly thin girl in front of him had escaped safely from the encirclement and interception of the Tubo people with extraordinary perseverance last night, he suddenly had mixed feelings, and secretly sighed in his heart that his dignified seven-foot man was so pale compared to the girl who was sleeping like a child in front of him.
Just as Ling Rui looked out the window and sighed secretly, Ouyang He gradually woke up, and saw Ling Rui in front of him who seemed to have already recovered his vitality. After the two of them knew each other's physical feelings, Ling Rui mentioned to Ouyang He that he had fought with a mysterious man in black outside the camp of the Tubo army, when this man in black was leading many carriages to rush out of the damaged fence on one side of the camp, he wanted to go and grab this man in black and ask Ouyang He where he was, who knew that this man in black was extraordinary, and judging from his body shape and moves, he was very similar to the predecessor of the man in black who had helped them secretly several times before. After listening to Ling Rui's narration, Ouyang He quickly realized that the man in black who saved her should have successfully rescued the rest of the imprisoned women, but she still had a little extra concern for the little girl named Xiahou Regret.
While the two were analyzing the possible true identity of the man in black, the old man walked in with a bowl of lotus seed soup and asked Ouyang He to drink it to regulate his breath. After Ouyang He drank it, the old man asked some curiously about Ouyang He's biological father and mother, but Ouyang He replied that she had been adopted by her father-in-law in Yufeng Villa since she was a child, and her father-in-law did not know her background before her death, so until now she did not know who her biological father and mother were.
"I don't know why the old man suddenly asked about the little girl's life experience?" Ouyang He's intuition was still quite keen, and she was still instinctively alert to the old man suddenly asking about her life experience.
"Oh, the old man just found that there is a very peculiar true qi in the girl's body when he was breathing the true qi, according to common sense, the woman's feminine body, the true qi in the body is mostly cold, and this true qi is extremely hot, I am afraid that ordinary men can hardly withstand its domineering power, the old man really doesn't know who the master is infused into the girl's body such a true qi." The old man told Ling Rui and Ouyang He about the confusion in his heart.
According to what his father-in-law said before his death, this true qi had been felt since he began to raise the little girl, and he was also puzzled by it. If you know a thing or two about this true anger, please be sure to tell the little girl, the little girl is grateful! ”
"Yes, if the seniors can give Xiaohe some advice, I will be grateful!"
Under the struggle of Ouyang He and Ling Rui, the old man stroked his beard and thought about it for a while, then looked at Ouyang He with a serious face and asked her, "Miss Ouyang, if the old man expected it to be right, your biological mother once followed a caravan from the Western Regions here, and left behind a weapon used by your biological father during his lifetime. ”
"What?" Before Ouyang He could be too surprised, a bow and arrow suddenly shot in from the window of the stone house, grazing straight across the hair around Ouyang He's ear. The three of them came to the window to see that the lieutenant general who had fallen from his horse last night was leading hundreds of Tibetan soldiers to surround the stone house, and then he jumped off his horse and walked towards the gate of the stone house with his toes high.
"There's a secret passage behind the kitchen to leave through the side door of the stone house, come with me!" The old man took Ling Rui and Ouyang He to the entrance of the secret passage in the kitchen, and at the same time, the old man handed Ouyang He a package and told her to take the package out safely, and never let it fall into the hands of people with bad intentions.
"Don't worry, those people outside the door don't know you're here, I just need to fool them." Although Ling Rui and Ouyang He were still a little worried about the old man's safety before leaving, they still reluctantly entered the secret passage under the old man's persuasion and insistence.
"The descendants of the Yellow Emperor's bloodline, live in peace!" When the door of the secret room was about to close, the old man said such a sentence to Ouyang He meaningfully, Ouyang He was stunned for a moment, but before she could ask questions, the stone door closed heavily.
"Come on, set fire to me, I can't let anyone go!" The adjutant general found the newly left blood stains in front of the stone house, so after giving an order, the soldiers fired rockets through several windows of the stone house, and the smoke billowed from the stone house. Then the adjutant general smugly led the soldiers to crash open the wooden gate of the stone house, and at this moment, suddenly there was a gunpowder explosion in the door, and a strong wave of air knocked several people including the adjutant general around the door to the ground, and then the old man masked his face and carried a cotton dummy quickly ran out of the house and ran quickly towards the dense forest below the mountain. Soon, the Tubo soldiers who had been transferred from the mountain chased in the direction of the old man, and Ling Rui and Ouyang He took the opportunity to walk out of the side door of the stone house. Not long after Ouyang He helped Ling Rui out in the direction of the mountain, a huge explosion came from behind him, followed by a ghost crying wolf howl from the Tubo soldiers. Ling Rui and Ouyang He looked sadly at the place where the smoke was billowing behind them, tears could not stop slowly leaving from the corners of Ouyang He's eyes, and Ling Rui forcibly suppressed the grief and indignation in his heart, tore off the corner of the clothes on his body and gently wiped away the residual tears on Ouyang He's cheeks.
"It's okay, let's go." Ouyang He supported Ling Rui with a dead face, and the two of them walked cautiously in the direction of the foot of the mountain along the gurgling stream at their feet.
Fortunately, the man in black last night was waiting for them leisurely at the foot of the mountain with a dog's tail grass in his mouth, and when he saw that Ling Rui was seriously injured, he hurriedly stepped forward to help Ouyang He help Ling Rui to the car, and the two then returned to Victoria safely under the leadership of the man in black after avoiding the sight of the Tubo soldiers along the way.
"Thank you for the life-saving grace of the knight, dare to ask the knight's name, and the younger generations will repay him twice in the future!" Ling Rui asked the mysterious man in front of him who had never shown his face.
"This is just the duty of the next, when the time is ripe, the two of you will naturally know the name of the next, so don't pass by!" The mysterious man sent Ling Rui and Ouyang He to the pharmacy where they were before and left in a hurry.
At this moment, in front of the window on the second floor of an inn not far from the pharmacy, a man with a few strands of white hair on his temples quietly watched everything in front of the pharmacy, and when he saw Ouyang He helping Ling Rui slowly into the door of the pharmacy, he muttered to a dark shadow behind him: "The Tubo people are really vulnerable, they can't even keep a few children who have not dried up, it seems that your wishful thinking has been empty, at this moment, do you want Fengleitang to help you?" ”
"Hmph, thank you for your kindness, but for Black Eagle Village, on the territory of Victoria, those who follow me have always prospered, and those who oppose me have perished, and there is no need to rely on others to help clean up the portal!" A man wearing a face-covering hat and a short axe in his arms said this to the man who was looking at him contemptuously in front of him and walked away quickly, and then Xun Xi, one of the three envoys of wind and thunder, walked out from behind the screen enchantingly, and asked Bai Lichen, the second master of the Wind and Thunder Hall, who was looking out the window and thinking about something: "Since the second leader wants to get the first beauty of Dashu, why let this group of rabble go and take the lead?" Wouldn't it be more worry-free to let the little woman make a move? ”
"Heh, how can this seat be willing to let our turbid beauty take this risk? If you leave a few scars on you, the big boss will blame me. Bai Lichen said to Xun Xi in a provocative tone.
"Since the second boss has already said so, presumably the second boss has already had his own plan, so Zhuoxi wants to do what he wants to do, I hope the second boss will not stop it!" Xun Xi deliberately finished speaking in a frivolous tone and then left, in fact, she planned to catch Ouyang He and bring it to the big boss one step ahead of the Black Eagle Village, she didn't want a small Black Eagle Village to ruin the task given to her by the big boss.
On the other hand, Bai Lichen himself knew very well in his heart that the three envoys of wind and thunder were also subordinate to him on the surface, but in fact they were only loyal to the big boss, so he always thought in his heart that he must not let the three envoys of wind and thunder touch what he really wanted. In order to have the financial resources of Yufeng Villa and recruit the gangsters who obey his orders to fight against the forces of the big bosses, he is determined that no matter what means he uses on this trip, he must capture Ouyang He alive to force Yufeng Villa to submit.
Under the clouds, in the western Shu Victoria, Mu Xuefeng's scarred boys and girls after the First World War will face new dangers. At the same time, the ancient divine soldiers sleeping in the package carried by Ouyang He reappeared after experiencing the bloody rain and bloody wind on the shore of Sailimu Lake, and through mutual induction with the imperial soul qi in Ouyang He's body, the sharp blade was about to reveal its bloodthirsty edge again.
