Episode 4: Cause and effect of mango seeds, listening to insects at night in Xiaoting 1

The moon night of the Xijiang River is dotted, the fish enter the deep pond and the birds return to the forest, there are no pedestrians outside Xunyang City, only the lights on the river are flashing, and the singing and dancing music praise the peace.

Compared with the lively scene of the Flower Building, the small house on the shore seems to be quiet and abnormal, this is a small courtyard with two compartments, only a lantern shines in the courtyard, there is a figure flickering in the dimness, only the sound of coughing is heard, and then the small courtyard becomes lively.

There is a man and a woman in this small courtyard, the man is handsome and abnormal, but the woman is mediocre, and it is very interesting in comparison, these two people are Liu Wu and Meng Feishi who moved out of Xunyang City.

On that day, the two of them went out of the city by Zhou Chang's carriage, and the gossip in the city Liu Wu didn't know at all, and after arriving at this house not far from the east city gate, Liu Wu had never entered the city, and lived a small life peacefully.

"What are you doing? Why is it so much smoke? ”

Liu Wu was startled, covered his mouth and threw it in coughing, and ran to Meng Feishi's side, "Little uncle, why did you come out?" ”

Meng Fei was wearing a tight jacket when he tied his forehead, and looking at the beads of sweat on his head, he should be practicing.

"If you don't come out again, are you going to set the house on fire?"

"I don't have ......"

Meng Feishi looked at the dirty, smoked face of the catkins, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, took out a silk handkerchief from the cuffs, and gently wiped the face of the catkins, the catkins' body was shocked, and he was dumbfounded, and when Meng Fei stopped his movements and looked at the catkins again, the catkins' face showed an unnatural redness.

"Why did the rich lady think of making a fire?"

"I, I see that little uncle you are practicing, and I want to boil some hot water for you to bathe and change clothes, but this wood is also difficult, you can't make a fire at all, and you are angry."

Meng Feishi silently looked at the catkins and said, "It's better for me to come in the future, I have been practicing in the mountains with my master since I was a child, and I am the most skilled in these tasks." ”

"So what do I do?"

"Just do whatever you want."

Meng Feishi walked to the side of the earthen stove, and as soon as he lowered his body, Liu Fu also squatted on the side and asked, "Little uncle, can you teach me well?" I can also cook you a meal to eat in the future. ”

The corners of Meng Feishi's mouth twitched, and he coughed unnaturally, and said, "It's no problem if you want to learn this, but if you want to cook, you still need to be patient and learn, last time you cooked a meal behind my back, what was the result?" ”

"That's not true, but my uncle also said he wanted to teach me."

"Okay, let's start with this ignition."

Liu Fu smiled and nodded.

Meng Feishi took out most of the firewood filled in the stove and said: "As the old saying goes, be a real person, and start a fire when you are empty. Therefore, this ignition should not be too full, and there should be a gap for it to go through the smoke and ventilate, and you have too little material, so you will extinguish it yourself before you can lead the firewood. ”

Meng Fei muttered for a long time, turned his head to look at Liu Wu, only to see Liu Wu holding his two arms, holding his face, looking straight at him. Meng Fei was speechless and said, "What do you see me doing?" The method of igniting fire has never been written on my face, look at my hands, listen to the tricks I said, what I just said, remember? ”

Liu Wu responded again and again, and said: "Jacket, remember, remember." ”

"Then you tell me again, and I'll listen."

"Well, this, oh yes! People want to be false, fire wants to be real, no, people want to be real, fire wants to be virtual, this time is right! ”

"And then?"

"And then? And then you move too fast, I don't remember. ”

“……”

"It's already led today, let's practice tomorrow."

As he spoke, Meng Fei got up and gave up this place to Liu Wu.

The catkins smiled sheepishly, squatting on the ground and not knowing what they were thinking, throwing a piece of firewood into it from time to time.

Meng Feishi silently watched the catkins on the side, and after looking at them for a long time, the catkins got up and picked up the lid of the pot, lifted a bucket of water and was about to pour it into the pot. ”

But this sound came late, Liu Wu had already poured the water, and was startled by Meng Feishi's voice, instinctively screamed, and squatted on the ground.

I only heard a thudding sound, and then the catkins' body lightened, as if flying.

"Wow......"

Liu Wu closed her eyes tightly and curled up, she felt as if Meng Fei was hugging her, and spit out something on her, a hot current on her neck rushed down, flowing down her back.

Boom!

The feeling of flying in the sky was gone, a heavy sound of landing came, Liu Wu's feet touched the ground, he opened his eyes for the first time, looked up and found that the corners of Meng Feishi's mouth and chin were still bloodstained, Liu Wu's heart ached, and he cried out, wiping the blood on Meng Feishi's mouth with his sleeve while holding his head with his hand.

"Stay here and don't move."

Meng Fei broke away from Liu Wu's arm, whispered a word, flew to the side of the earthen stove, picked up the bucket and extinguished the flames splashing around.

When the firelight flickered, Liu Fu saw that there were a few more cuts on the back of Meng Feishi's shoulder, she covered her mouth and regretted it for a while, but she didn't want the slippery and greasy feeling on her hand to come, she stretched out her hand and looked at her hand, it was full of blood!

Liu Fu's heart jumped, and she quickly remembered where this hand had just come from?

"Ahh His head was also wounded and bleeding! Liu Fu screamed, stood up and rushed towards Meng Feishi's side, grabbing Meng Feishi's arm and pulling it back.

"Do what?"

"You're bleeding from your head, squat down and I'll take a look."

"I know, you stay over there and don't move, I'll be fine right away."

Liu Fei squatted to the side and looked at Meng Fei like this, and after a while, Meng Fei put out all the fire before he walked over to her.

"Squat down, where do you hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anywhere."

"Don't tell lies, it's all bleeding, how can it not hurt, wait for me." Liu Wu trotted all the way into the house, rummaged for a while, found two bottles of wound medicine left by the last Lang, and quickly took it out.

put the medicine on the ground, got up again to find hot water, but when he thought that the hot water had not yet boiled, there was an accident, and he couldn't help but flatten his mouth and choked up: "There is no hot water, how can I clean your wounds?" ”

"Stupid, what else do you pay attention to, just rinse it with some water."

Liu Wu hurriedly ran to get a bucket and went to the Xijiang River to fetch water.

Meng Feishi's mouth was grinning, and he hissed in pain, "What a fool, there is water in the water tank, why did you go to the river to fetch water?" ”

Meng Feishi reluctantly got up, walked to the water tank, unbuttoned his shirt and took off his shirt, scattered his hair again, put his right hand on the edge of the tank, moved his body, put his head down, and plunged into the water tank until he didn't pass his waist, stuck in the water and didn't move.

The catkins hurriedly carried half a bucket of water from the riverside, swayed and swayed to the small courtyard, and almost tripped over it halfway, and the water spilled some more, and the distressed arms just held the bucket like this, rubbing it to this side a little bit.

"Huh? What about the little uncle? Liu Wu bent down to put the bucket down, and when he didn't see Meng Fei, he shouted: "Meng Feishi? Where are you? ”

Meng Fei, who was holding his breath in the water, heard the sound of his hands and waist exerting force at the same time, rushed out of the water tank and landed firmly on the ground, his hair flicked to reveal his beautiful face, and then his hand moved slightly, draped his underwear on his body and walked towards the catkins.

"Ahh Liu Fu was shocked when she saw Meng Fei walking towards her with her clothes open, and quickly covered her eyes with her hands and screamed, and after screaming, two gaps were secretly revealed between her fingers, squinting her eyes and peeking.

Meng Feishi pulled her hand down and said, "How can you take medicine with your eyes blocked?" Then he sat down, revealing his back.

Liu Fu shyly looked at Meng Feishi's back, and there were six blood marks on his back, and the flesh was also turned up to varying degrees. Liu Wu's hand unconsciously stroked his back, and there was still blood flowing from the wound, and there were two places where something was embedded in the flesh.

"Do it, what are you waiting for?"

Meng Feishi's urging voice came, and Liu Fu reacted, and hurriedly asked: "I don't know what is embedded in the back, if you don't clean it up, you can't apply medicine." ”

Meng Feishi touched the mouth of his boot, took out a palm-sized copper dagger from it and handed it to Liu Wu, "Use it to dig things out." ”

"Huh?" Liu Wu took the dagger and was full of questions.

"How do you dig this thing?"

"Does it hurt to dig it?"

"How deep?"

"Do you want to cut the meat on the side together?"

I had a lot of thoughts, and I didn't dare to start after comparing the dagger in my hand for a long time.

"Melancholy what? Hurry up and dig! ”

"Ahh Seeing that Meng Fei was in a hurry, Liu Fu quickly gritted his teeth and stabbed the dagger into Meng Feishi's back.

"You! Look at the digging, lighten it! How much do you hate me, are you trying to stab me to death? ”

"Huh?" Liu Fu hurriedly opened his eyes and looked, this knife was too nervous, he didn't grasp the degree and position several times, and directly stabbed the dagger a little off, making Meng Feishi, who was already injured, even more injured.

"I, I, me, not intentionally!"

"Hurry up and dig it, if it's too late, I'll be bled like a chicken by you!"

"Ahh

Liu Wu held the dagger nervously in her right hand, this time she stared, and when she was about to start, her eyes were about to close unconsciously, and her head was tilted, not daring to look. But when he thought of Meng Feishi's current strength, he couldn't delay, so he quickly opened his eyes again and slowly inserted the dagger into the wound.

"Huh? It's not as scary as you think! ”

Liu Wu was still nervous to death just now, and when the dagger was inserted in the flesh, there was no picture of blood gushing out, but she was not afraid, and moved the dagger back and forth with the dagger on Meng Fei's wound.

"Why? Hurry up! ”

The iron-beaten man can't stand such torture, Meng Feishi's teeth are about to be crushed, and Liu Wu is still unhurriedly using a dagger to probe whether there is a foreign object in the wound, if it is not injured in the back, Meng Fei will definitely not let Liu Fu help him deal with the wound, it is too torturous!

"Oh, right away."

Liu Wu sped up the speed of his hand, and after a while, a foreign object in the wound was taken out, and Liu Wu wiped it with gauze dipped in water, revealing a piece of iron, and a slight curvature, "This, it can't be a pot, right?" ”

"Why did you stop?"

"Ahh

Liu Wu swiped on these wounds in turn according to the previous technique, cleaned up all the fragments of the iron pot stuck in the meat, and evenly applied the wound medicine to the wound before bandaging Meng Feishi with a strip of cloth.

When Liu Fu looked at Meng Fei who was sitting upright, his face was pale at this time, and he didn't know whether it was sweat or the water stains on his head that had been upside down in the water tank before had not yet dried, or it might have been mixed together.

Liu Wu stretched up his sleeves and wiped it on Meng Feishi's face, but then a large number of water droplets appeared on his face, and Liu Wu knew that these were not water droplets, but Meng Fei's cold sweat.

"He must be in pain! But why didn't you say a word? ”

Liu Fu touched the back of his head, wanting to see if there were some pieces of an iron pot embedded in the back of his head.

Meng Feishi quickly stretched out his hand, grabbed Liu Fu's hand, and snatched the dagger in her hand, "There is no injury on the head, it is a blood stain, are you holding the dagger on my head to open my head?" ”

"Me? How's that! ”

Liu Fu snorted and turned sideways to not look at Meng Fei, who stood up and walked towards the house.

Looking at Meng Feishi's back, Liu Wu seemed to feel that this back was so familiar? About a month ago, this man was also seriously injured because he saved her, and he was also wrapped in strips of cloth, but last time he broke his ribs, and this time he had more external injuries.

"You can also wash up and rest early."

Meng Feishi's voice came from the room, Liu Wu was stunned for a moment, then stood up, walked to the bucket, poured some water into the basin, and looked at it through the hazy light, Liu Wu's hair was messy at this time, his face was dark, and his neck was still scarlet, which startled Liu Wu, and then thought, "He should still have internal injuries, right?" Otherwise, how could they vomit blood? ”
