Volume 1 Encounters Chapter 9 Different Paths

When he finished speaking, he took off his military uniform first, revealing his chest, and on his chest was a blood-red scar, which had been stitched together with needles and threads, but now the wound had burst again due to vigorous exercise. He felt the pain and couldn't help but slow down the action of undressing.

Ye Chengcheng saw this scene in his eyes, and he was a little secretly distressed. But she refused to express this distress, let alone ask him directly about his injuryβ€”if he were an ordinary soldier, he would have changed from a wounded soldier to a young, promising, handsome and calm general. In front of the young general, the eldest lady must know how to be shy.

Lu Bangchun's previous actions that could be called ignorant, immoral and rude in her eyes have become taken for granted at this moment - he is a general, and he should be so domineering.

She beckoned Ye Linfeng to help Wutian up, and said to Zhang Xi: "Quickly get some more bandages and bandage General Lu's wounds as well." ”

Zhang Xi thought that he had made a big mistake, thinking that the eldest lady would definitely not take care of him anymore, but who knew that his eldest lady was actually a large number of adults, and she refused to meet him at all, he couldn't help but be a little flattered at this time, and hurriedly agreed, picked up the bandage and began to bandage Lu Bangchun. At this time, his expression was almost overjoyed, and his face was full of spring breeze.

Lu Bangchun frowned: "I'm injured, are you happy?" ”

Zhang Xi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shook his head: "Don't dare, I just ...... Just ......"

Lu Wanchun raised his eyebrows: "Just what?" ”

Zhang Xi lowered his head and said in a low voice: "I just thought that the eldest lady would never pay attention to me anymore." ”

Ye Chengcheng helped Wutian, walked over, and glared at Zhang Xi: "Don't think that this matter is over, I will scold you again when I go back to Beijing!" She bent down and picked up a military uniform from the ground: "Wutian, quickly change into it." ”

Wutian took the military uniform, took it to his eyes and smelled it, and then almost vomited: "I don't wear it!" It stinks! ”

Ye Tingcheng said in a childish tone: "No, you must wear it, fast, obedient!." ”

Wutian was really obedient, he took off his coarse cloth clothes, and changed into a dirty military uniform with the help of Ding Shun. He patted the dirt on his clothes and muttered, "It's dirty." ”

Ye Tingcheng and Xiaocui turned their backs, and when the rest of the people changed into military uniforms, they heard Lu Bangchun say: "Miss Ye, next, I'm afraid I will have to wronged you and Miss Xiaocui." ”

Ye Chengcheng didn't know what the so-called grievances meant, thinking that he was expressing the next hardships, so he said indifferently: "It's okay, it's all at this time, it's good to be able to live, and what grievances are not grievances." ”

When Lu Bangchun heard this, he clapped his hands: "Okay!" That's what I want! ”

Ye Tingcheng and Xiaocui finally knew what Lu Bangchun's so-called grievances were referring to.

She and Xiaocui were tied with their hands behind their backs, and they were swept into two tubes by two pieces of worn-out grass, and their faces were also dressed up by General Lu with soot and dirt, which looked dirty. The two of them lay side by side on a donkey cart, one with a foul rag stuffed into his mouth, and his hair was messily draped over his face, looking like two big girls who had tried to hide were searched by the soldiers.

There are six soldiers, and the leader is Lu Bangchun. The father and son of the Ye family also changed into military uniforms, but because the two of them eat and drink well on weekdays, are pampered, and have also raised a body of fine skin and tender meat, Lu Bangchun also applied a little soot to them. Zhang Xi and Ding Shun wore military uniforms and carried guns, and forcibly pretended to show off their martial virtues, but the two brothers have been slaves for a long time, and they have always lowered their eyebrows and pretended to be pleasing to the eyes, pretending to come and go, and they did not pretend to be victorious at all, but they were like two neurotics with flying eyebrows who went crazy on the street. Wutian is okay, the military uniform is loose on him, just so that he can pretend to be a child soldier.

Xiaocui was frightened, choked and always wanted to cry, and she was accompanied by the Ye family's father and son, the two of them carried guns, took figure-eight steps, with tears in their eyes, and couldn't wait to find a warm embrace to cry. Ye Qingcheng was quite reasonable, she was lying on the donkey cart with her hair disheveled, her eyes staring at Lu Bangchun's chest, and she didn't know if his wound hurt or not.

At that time, I was angry with him, and refused to pay attention to him, but like a wild beast, he took the needle and thread that was used as a living needle and thread, and sewed up the wound himself.

When she thought of this, she also wanted to cry a little - she was too cold and mean to treat him, he was obviously so pitiful, and he was so down, it was so inhuman.

At this moment, Lu Bangchun walked up to her and said, "Don't be afraid, with me, I promise to send you on the train safely." ”

Ye Tingcheng looked at him, but also a little embarrassed, because she is now a big face, her hair is also messy and unsightly, and she still has a dirty rag stuffed in her mouth, she has been the eldest lady for more than 20 years, and it is the first time she is so embarrassed, but this embarrassed appearance was still looked at by Lu Bangchun.

Suddenly remembering something, she screamed to him twice. He immediately reached out and pulled out the handkerchief in her mouth, she gasped, and said, "Your pistol, do you want to bring it?" ”

He hesitated for a moment, obviously reluctant to give up his gun. But he shook his head at the end and put the handkerchief back into her mouth: "Forget it, that gun is too dazzling, so don't bring it." ”

After saying this, he patted her again through a layer of reed mats, coaxing her like a child.

She turned her head to look at Wutian again, Wutian walked a little staggering, it was Lu Bangchun who used a red-hot table knife to dig out the bullet in his wound, the pain was ten thousand times stronger than being shot, making Wutian almost faint.

When she thought that Wutian had been shot for her, her chest also had a faint pain. She didn't know what kind of feelings she had for Wutian, but she knew that no matter what kind of feelings she had, it was not love after all. Because she can't love him, it's not that he's not good enough, it's that he's too good, so selfless, so good that he makes himself flustered and has nowhere to hide. Moreover, he is a character who fell from the sky, and he can't say that he will fly back again one day, she has read Liaozhai and understands what "people and ghosts have different paths". Although he is not a ghost, he is never a human.

As soon as the back door of the Ye family opened, Zhang Xi and Ding Xi drove out with a donkey cart. The donkey cart is also one of the many properties of the Ye family, the donkey is usually tied to the back door, and the Ye family has little work, so it is still an idle donkey, and it does not want to be entrusted to the donkey today, and has the opportunity to buy power for the Ye family, and the donkey is used to being idle, and he is unwilling to work hard for the Ye family in vain, but he is stubborn and refuses to go. Fortunately, Lu Bangchun was more stubborn than him, and after he whipped it a few times, the donkey had to bow his head to him, his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and he followed the Ye family on the road with tears in his eyes.

Ye Linfeng and Wutian followed Lu Bangchun one after the other, Ye Tianxiong held a rifle in his arms and sat in the corner of the donkey cart, acting as the eighth master of Qiu, Ye Tingcheng and Xiaocui, who were rolled into a tube on the car, were very dedicated and cried all the way.

The Ye family hasn't been out for a long time, and now when they go to the street, they find that the whole county is like a Shura field, the streets are full of dead people, there are people and soldiers, the shops around the street are swaying out of the windows, and the houses near and far are full of smoke, and ghosts are crying wolves. The ruffians were running rampant with guns in their arms, some of them were arresting women in the streets, some were robbing the residents of all over the place, and some were even killing people in the streets.

Seeing such a hellish scene, Xiao Cui cried even harder, rolled her eyes in a sob, Ye Tingcheng also closed her eyes tightly, and her heart was terrified for a while, she felt like a blind man walking at night, except for Lu Bangchun who followed closely in front, there was no other choice.

Suddenly, a rough dirty hand appeared out of nowhere and touched her leg: "The little girl is not bad!" ”

She was so frightened that she opened her eyes and wanted to hide, but Lu Bangchun, who was walking in front, turned back at this time and slammed the other party's chest with the butt of her gun: "These two are girls for the commander, are you fucking looking for death?" ”

The hand immediately retracted: "What are you anxious about, I didn't say I wanted to sleep with them!" ”

Lu Bangchun didn't speak again, Ye Tingcheng only felt a shock under him, it was the donkey cart that continued on the road. She recalled the conversation between Lu Bangchun and the soldier in her heart, and the two of them asked and answered so smoothly that she couldn't help but feel a horror in her heart - if it was Lu Bangchun who won this time, and it was Lu Bangchun who entered the city, would he also be like Commander Shen and his soldiers, killing people and setting fires all over the city, smashing and looting?

Anyway, one thing can be confirmed: he really kills people without blinking.

She was grateful to him, ashamed of him, and afraid of him.

The donkey cart continued on its way, and after a while they arrived at the city gate, where the city wall was first destroyed by the cannons, and there was no more traffic inside and outside the gate. Several soldiers with guns on their shoulders stood at the gate of the city, responsible for guarding the gate.

When the donkey cart arrived at the city gate, the soldiers guarding the gate immediately came to the spirit: "Yo, there are women!" ”

Lu Bangchun replied with a smile: "If the commander likes it, we are responsible for sending it to him." ”

The soldier guarding the door sneered: "The commander is enough, I want two at once, can you play?" He laughed while making way for Lu Bangchun and his party, and didn't forget to touch Ye Tingcheng's face.

So, as if in a dream, the people of the Ye family left this hellish county step by step and walked outside the city.

When they got out of the city, they did not dare to stop, but walked a long way, until they reached a small col, and the donkey cart stopped.

The two rolls of straw mats on the car were untied, and Ye Chengcheng and Xiaocui regained their freedom. The car was haphazardly covered with straw and rags, and underneath the rags were a suitcase and a bag of clothing that had been hidden in advance. The father and son of the Ye family hurriedly took off their military uniforms and hurriedly changed into clean clothes. After living for so long, they had never worn such filthy and filthy clothes, so that father and son held back tears and lunch all the way, for fear that they would vomit out of their mouths.

Ye Tianxiong changed his clothes, and stroked his heart for a few more breaths, then turned his head to Lu Bangchun, and he spoke: "General Lu-"

Lu Bangchun interrupted him: "Master Ye doesn't need to be polite, just call me Bangchun." ”

"Okay, okay, Bang Chun, what should we do next, we can't continue to ride the donkey cart, my ass is going to be turned into eight petals!"

Ye Chengcheng wiped his face with a handkerchief dipped in water, and while holding his hair with a comb, he glared at his father, and then faced Lu Bangchun and said, "Thank you, you saved the lives of my whole family." ”

Lu Wanchun lowered his head and smiled: "Miss Ye doesn't have to be polite, this is as it should be." ”

Ye Chengcheng really didn't say anything polite to him anymore, and turned to look at Wutian: "Wutian, how are you?" ”

Wutian blinked his eyes and said, "It hurts." ”

Ye Tingcheng was worried again, and she couldn't wait to take Wutian into her arms, but she knew that she couldn't do this, she felt Wutian's feelings for herself, but after all, he was not a human being, and it would be difficult for her and him to achieve positive results after all. She couldn't accept his intentions, otherwise she would hurt him, she only regarded him as her own brother.

Ye Chengcheng forcibly ruthlessly said, "Thank you for saving me, but I hope you don't do it next time." We've only known each other for a short time, and I don't deserve your life like this. ”

Ye Linfeng has always admired Wutian, and when he heard his sister say this, he couldn't listen to it very much, and he said loudly: "Sister! What are you talking about? Did you save the mistake of saving you? ”

Ye Qingcheng lowered her head and didn't answer her brother's words - she also knew that her words were too unpleasant.

Wutian looked up at her, his eyes flashed, and he opened his mouth gently: "I said, I will protect you, I don't lie, I will do what I say." ”

When Ye Tingcheng heard this, she was about to soften, she gritted her teeth and said, "I thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it, and I don't deserve your life to save me like this, don't you understand?" ”

Wutian was dumbfounded, he opened his mouth, and it took a long time before he spoke: "But, I just want to be good to you, I just want to protect you." ”

His words were like knives, piercing her heart every sentence, he was kind, overwhelmingly kind, so that she had no way to retreat, nothing to hide, and forced her to be annoyed and angry. She finally couldn't hold back her tears, and suddenly raised her voice: "Why are you so stupid!" Don't you understand me! She couldn't say the rest of the words, she could only say in her heart: It would be good if he was a human being, even if he was an incompetent poor boy, she would admit it, why is he a demon!

Father and daughter are connected, how can Ye Tianxiong not know his daughter's thoughts, he also knows that Wutian is good, Wutian doesn't even want to think about it, just block in front of his daughter, it is worth entrusting, but Wutian's identity is destined to make the two of them lose their fate. Ye Tianxiong opened his mouth and started a round: "Okay, okay, don't make any noise, it's dark, let's go quickly, if we delay any longer, we will spend the night in the mountains." ”

Wutian stood in place, looking at Ye Qingcheng with an innocent face, his eyes blinked, and a teardrop fell - the teardrop was broken on the ground, and he pouted, he was really aggrieved.
