16, Luzhou
At the beginning of September of the 29th year of Shaoxing, he voluntarily followed Liang Jue and Liang Qian's army to Luzhou's children, all 531 people, 200 and 15 horses, recorded their names, and marched in procession.
Ru Sanshui wore a snow-blue men's clothes, led the horse that her grandfather picked for her at the Liangjia Racecourse, and immediately carried her simple bag. Suddenly, I heard Liang Yunshu shouting anxiously: "Sanshui!"
When she heard Sister Yun Shu's call, she suddenly felt guilty, and her footsteps stopped. She sighed: "Sister, Sanshui has hatred, and it doesn't hinder the original intention." Sanshui is affectionate, and there is no obstacle to worrying. ”
Without hesitation, she boarded her horse and departed with the procession.
Liang Yunshu followed for a while, away from Liangjiaqu, and followed to the nearby Lingyun Mountain. She walked up this small hill and stood and looked out, until she saw that the team had left her aunt and turned into a misty mustard seed in the dust.
This trip to Luzhou is expected to take about ten days. Ru Sanshui rode forward, and after two days, his thighs were worn out by the saddle, and his clothes still had little effect. When it hurt so much that she dismounted and walked, letting those who had no horses rest on her horses.
In this way, the horses were alternately ridden on foot, and they walked for another three days. Originally, there was little time to sleep and change clothes, but on the fifth night, Liang Jue saw that some young people who didn't do hard work were a little unbearable, and finally decided to trim it. In the afternoon, stay at the post house and wait for the next morning to set off again.
In the evening, Ru Sanshui extravagantly called for a pot of hot water, mixed cold water with lukewarm water, and took a bath. When she was changing clothes, she saw that her thighs were red, and the red scabs were repeatedly worn out, and they felt like tree bark. The blisters on the soles of the feet also broke, and individual blisters were still bleeding, but fortunately they stopped quickly.
It's also hard to touch the water when taking a bath. Maybe it's the better bed that soothes the body, and the tense nerves relax, causing the injury to hurt extra at night. When I couldn't fall asleep over and over, I sighed, people really can't live a good life, and if they have a good life, they will be uncomfortable.
I don't know what to think of, she was too sleepy in the middle of the night, and she slept for a while in a daze, and dreamed that little Ah Bao picked up her feet and said, "Sister doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt if you blow it." ”
The next morning, I looked at my legs and feet, and they were at least half better. She was amazed.
Other people's legs and feet are accumulated every day with abrasions and blisters, but after that day, Ru Sanshui sleeps every night, and when he wakes up, the wear and tear of the day will be restored to fifty percent. The long journey still made her a little unbearable, and it was much better than others. Although she could not understand this particular situation, she was slightly uneasy.
On the ninth day, many people were not accustomed to the water and soil. Ru Sanshui was also not very comfortable, and his complexion was a little yellow. I woke up early in the morning and felt nauseous in my stomach.
As she leaned down against the tree and retched, black smoke suddenly erupted from her mouth.
Frightened, she jerked straight up.
The smoke was as misty as a veil of lightness, swirling in the air but not dissipating, and she tried to touch it with her hand, but it lingered in her fingertips and disappeared after a moment. She took two steps back and shook her hand, but she couldn't see it anymore.
Could it be that he was absorbed back by his own body...... Ru Sanshui stared at his hand in disbelief, and suddenly remembered what Liang Qian had asked that day on Longshan.
"What was that black smoke that came out of your back when you fell from the altar that day?"
At that time, she still felt that Liang Qian was inexplicable, but now she has seen the black smoke with her own eyes, and finally knows that she is wrong to blame him.
She also wanted to ask, what the hell is this, where did it come from, why is it on her, and is it related to this thing that her leg strain is getting better so quickly these days?
The person who woke up early like Ru Sanshui found a waterhole and started chatting while scooping up water and washing his face: "Although the environment in the southwest is difficult, the errands in southern Xinjiang are actually quite comfortable compared with those in northern Xinjiang. ”
"Speaking of the southwest, do you know why the Sun Daofu in Mianzhou was demoted?"
Another person answered: "I heard that it is a partisan dispute between the main war faction and the main peace faction?"
"How can it be so simple, he was originally He Jin Zhengdan's envoy, and when he came back from the Jin Dynasty in 28 years, he had already reported to the imperial court, saying that the Jin Lord Wanyan's move to Kaifeng was planning a southern invasion, but the saint thought it was nonsense, and the run of the Lord and the faction directly demoted him to Mianzhou. When the envoy of He Song Zhengdan came to the court this year, the implication was that Wan Yanliang would definitely tear up the peace agreement, and the saint would still be suspicious. To this day, the border defense is still lax. ”
Those people passed by Ru Sanshui, and they were still sighing and sighing: "The main force of the Jin army moved south to Kaifeng, and the tip of the knife is about to stick to our faces, why doesn't the saint understand?"
Ru Sanshui didn't pay attention to what they were discussing, just looked at his own hands.
Could it be the curse that the Rakshasa had left on her? Is there a curse in this world that will heal her physical wounds? Or is it Po's blessing, as she had dreamed the night before?
No matter how she thought about it, she thought it was ridiculous, but such a ridiculous thing was in herself.
The trumpet sounds, it's time to go. Ru Sanshui untied the reins of his horse and silently walked into the team full of confusion.
On the tenth day, I arrived in Luzhou three days earlier than expected. Luzhou is located on the border line of northern Xinjiang, not the most marginal, but it has also suffered a lot of rogues, and there are always all kinds of people who cannot be prevented from mixing into the city. Once the Song and Jin Dynasty started a war one day, the hidden danger of mixing fish and dragons in the city would definitely make it easier for Luzhou to fall than the direct attack of the army outside the city.
Fortunately, it was a rich treasure in ancient times, and now there is still the afterglow of the ancient city, which can not be compared with the suburbs of Beijing, but it is not much worse than the aunt, and the customs are still very simple.
Entering the city, after all, it was a group of more than 500 people, and it quickly attracted attention, and when someone heard that it was the new Overseer, they shouted to welcome them. The streets and alleys that pass by for a while are bustling with activity.
The young man at the spice shop on the side of the road was napping, and after being woken up, he looked out from the shop, and didn't understand what was happening outside: "Why is it so lively, who is coming?"
A woman replied to him: "It was the brother of the Liang Overseer before, and now he is going to the battlefield for his brother, what a general." ”
When the woman saw Ru Sanshui, a rare woman among these many men, she liked it very much, and she wanted to talk to her. The young man saw the basket that the woman was carrying, "Huh, what you are carrying? Let me taste it." ”
The woman slapped his hand away, "Oh, what do you know? This is not yours, but theirs." As he spoke, he stuffed a basket of rice cakes and persimmons into Sanshui's arms.
Ru Sanshui couldn't hold back his enthusiasm so he had to take it, turned around and asked, "Third uncle, what are they talking about?"
Liang Jue had changed into the official uniform of the Overseer before entering the city, and at this moment he was riding a high-headed horse with dignity, led by Liang Qian. Seeing this scene, he explained with a smile: "People say that these gifts are for us. ”
Liang Qian saw that Ru Sanshui was holding the weight and took it from her hand, and Ru Sanshui glanced at him with a smile. The woman looked left and right, pulled Liang Qian rarely, and said in a strong rural accent: "It's rare to come from afar to defend the city, and it's still a young couple who come together." ”
Ru Sanshui clearly understood the three words of the little couple, and hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no, thank you for the persimmons, but we are not...... We are brothers and sisters. ”
The woman was embarrassed to find out that she had said the wrong thing. Liang Qian said straightly: "If you say it hard, you are not related, and it is not impossible." ”
Ru Sanshui took a deep breath: "Do you know what you're talking about?"
Liang Qian was at a loss: "Didn't you say anything wrong?"
Ru Sanshui slapped Liang Gan on the arm: "If it's right, is it what can be said? If you don't have this meaning and still say this, you let others listen, wouldn't it be ...... for others to listen?"
"Huh, but we really didn't ......" "Liang Qian!"
Liang Jue urged the horse forward, pretending not to see it. He laughed all the way as he listened to the two children arguing behind him.
