Xiangzi carried a kettle in his left hand and a bowl in his right hand, and quietly came to the small earthen house in the back ditch.

Gently pushed the door open, and a dazzling white light shot into the room.

Immediately, the gray hut was turned into a white light.

The woman on the kang turned her head to look at her in shock.

Seeing Xiangzi's tower-like body, a solid shadow was covered by the light, and it was heavily pressed on the narrow kang.

The woman, in a panic, blocked the glare of the sunlight with her hand.

His voice was low, but full of horror, and he said, "Who? What are you doing? ”

Xiangzi put the kettle and bowl on the kang, smiled at the woman, and said, "Wake up? Let's take a sip of water. ”

When the woman saw Shoko leaning forward, she still shrank back nervously, with a frightened and painful look on her face.

Xiangzi handed half a bowl of water to her, and said with a gentle smile: "Last night, I carried you back, don't you remember?" ”

The woman was stunned for a moment, and then, looking at the bloody pants on the corner of the kang, her face turned crimson and muttered, "Did you get that too?" ”

Shoko smiled apologetically at her and said, "At that time, you bled too much, I was afraid of delaying again, you were afraid of ...... So let's get started.

But at the time, I didn't know you were ......."

The woman's face flushed, and she struggled to turn her face away, sighing softly and not speaking.

Two lines of shiny liquid, without any scruples, rolled down from his face.

Seeing this scene, Shoko's heart became flustered for a while.

He looked a little incoherent and said, "I'm just piercing...... The wound is bandaged, the bullet is not inside...... Drugged. ”

After a long silence, the woman slowly turned her face and smiled miserably.

Whispered, "Thanks to you for saving me." ”

Shoko breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly handed over the bowl.

Seeing that she tried to get up, but was pressed by the heart-wrenching pain, she closed her eyes.

Shoko hurriedly reached out and gently lifted her upper body, and tucked the pillow into her waist, allowing her to lean on her shoulder.

The woman drank a few sips of water and seemed to be much more refreshed.

Shoko turned around and went out the door, got a bundle of hay, put it on the corner of the kang, gently lifted the woman, leaned on the bale, and tucked the pillow under her head.

Seeing that the woman was much more comfortable, Xiangzi looked at the woman with fluttering eyes.

Melon seed face, willow eyebrows, straight nose, small mouth.

A pair of phoenix eyes, embedded with shiny black beads, are set on the white face plate, but it also shows a bit of posture.

When the woman saw Xiangzi, she secretly looked at herself. Pale cheeks, once again tinged a faint red.

She sighed softly and reached out to slowly remove the black silk handkerchief wrapped around her head, revealing her hair coiled like a flower.

Shoko's throat rang inexplicably, and she hurriedly twisted her face to the side.

After being silent for a while, I only heard the woman and said in a weak voice: "My name is Wang Shuzhen, and I am an assassin sent by Ma Zhongying. ”

Xiangzi smiled gently at her and said, "I know, you were sent to assassinate County Magistrate Liu. ”

Shuzhen glanced at Xiangzi suspiciously, and said, "Then why did you save me?" ”

Xiangzihan smiled and said, "When I saw that you were a baby, I couldn't bear to ...... in my heart."

Shuzhen looked at Xiangzi calmly and said, "What are you going to do with me?" ”

Xiangzi was slightly stunned for a moment, and said casually: "I don't have any plans, I just want to heal your injuries as soon as possible." ”

Sook-jin bit her lip lightly, an elusive expression passing over her face.

Then he said lightly: "And then?" ”

Xiangzi smiled and said, "Then it's up to you to go wherever you want." ”

Shuzhen, looking a little excited, said, "Don't you hand me over to the government?" ”

Xiangzi smiled indifferently and said, "If you want to send it to the government, why should I save you." ”

Shuzhen's eyes suddenly flashed with something crystalline. The pale face twitched slightly.

He muttered to himself, "You're a good person." ”

Xiangzi smiled at her and said, "What a good person is not a good person, these years, the war is chaotic, and it is God's blessing to be able to live well." ”

Shuzhen didn't say anything more, and two tears finally overflowed her eyes and rolled down like two strings of pearls.

Xiangzi hurriedly comforted and said, "Don't think about anything, recuperate with peace of mind." I'll get you something to eat. ”

Shuzhen reached out and wiped her face, and whispered, "I am*." ”

Xiangzi smiled gently at her and said, "I know, there is a restaurant in the city that is opened by Hui people, and the steamed bun noodle soup is famous." ”

Shuzhen smiled at him, her white lips squirmed a few times, but she didn't make a sound.

Xiangzi helped her drink two more sips of water, and then said, "There are few people here, so you can rest assured that you can lie down and rest." ”

As he spoke, he took out the * from his arms and handed it to Shuzhen.

He smiled warmly at her and turned out the door.

Xiangzi Pegasus rushed back to the county office and saw a lot of people.

County Magistrate Liu split his face and said, "Oops! Where are you going, everyone is waiting for you for a long time. ”

Shoko greeted everyone with an apologetic face.

Then, he looked at County Magistrate Liu suspiciously, and saw that he looked particularly energetic today.

County Magistrate Liu got up, glanced at everyone present, and said with a little excitement: "Everyone, this is the hero Guo Guixiang who everyone wants to see, we all call him Xiangzi." ”

A few people who had never seen Xiangzi's face hurriedly got up and hugged their fists at Xiangzi and said, "Long up, long up." ”

County Magistrate Liu turned his face to Xiangzi and said: "These people are all big squires in the county. I want to meet you, the dragon hero. ”

Xiangzi nodded and smiled at everyone shyly, and said, "I'm not a hero, I'm not a hero, I just did my duty." ”

Before the words fell, I saw a middle-aged man who looked polite and polite, got up and said, "We've heard that the legends of the dolls in the city are very fierce.

Speaking of you alone, in the blink of an eye, you picked up a dozen horse bandits who climbed up to the city, and dumb the shouting horn with one shot.

I also made a lot of clay pots*. This time, I am defending the city, thanks to you. ”

Xiangzi hurriedly waved his hand and said: "It's nothing, it's nothing, it's all the result of the good command of County Magistrate Liu and the concerted efforts of the military and civilians in the city." ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Xiangzi with approval.

County Magistrate Liu smiled "hehe" and said: "I can't imagine Xiangzi, not only is he brave and strategic, but he is also very good at talking." ”

In the room, there was immediately a good-natured uproar.

When everyone calmed down a little, County Magistrate Liu continued: "On the public, Xiangzi has meritorious service in defending the city; In terms of selfishness, he saved my life twice. ”

Immediately, he described the capture of the bandits in the Thousand Buddha Caves and the process of moving flowers and trees last night.

Inside, there was a sound of surprise and admiration again.

The middle-aged man who spoke just now got up and said with a smile on his face at County Magistrate Liu: "County Magistrate Liu, it's not too early, I see that everyone is also here, aren't we?" ......”

County Magistrate Liu, as if he suddenly remembered something, Chong Xiangzi said: "Look at me patronizing and talking, in order to celebrate the complete success of defending the city, all the squires specially prepared a banquet in the Chengnan Hotel to treat everyone."

Oops, let the horse thief toss these days, and he hasn't eaten a stable meal. I'm going to eat it for a good time today. ”

During the banquet, Xiangzi learned that the person who spoke at the county office was Kong Qingwen, who was the principal of the county elementary school.

I don't know if Xiangzi has always admired cultural people, or has some special fate with Kong Qingwen.

I always feel a sense of familiarity.

Shoko has something on her mind, and she is always absent-minded at the wine table. He had already been looked at by County Magistrate Liu, who was sitting next to him.

So, he tilted his head to Shoko's ear and asked in a low voice, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Xiangzi said with a cramped face: "There is something in the temple, I have to go back early." ”

County Magistrate Liu is a shrewd person and knows that Xiangzi must have important things to do.

So, he excused him and said: "Everyone, the Thousand Buddha Cave caught fire last night, and there are some things that need to be handled by Xiangzi himself."

Come! Let's toast him and let him leave the table first! ”

So, everyone got up one after another and clinked glasses with Shoko.

As soon as a glass of wine was served, Regiment Leader You continued to drink, looked at Xiangzi and said, "This horse thief is retreating, brother has to give me a word, right?" ”

Xiangzi smiled gently at him, slowly took off the pistol he was carrying on his body, and handed it to Commander You with both hands.

Regiment Commander You waved his hand with an irritated face and said, "Do you have words first, even people bring guns!" ”

County Magistrate Liu hurriedly got up and stopped: "Are you poor and crazy? Trying to snatch someone right under my nose? ”

Lai Lai, the head of the regiment, smiled and said: "How dare you rob with County Magistrate Liu, we are Jiang Taigong fishing, and those who wish to take the bait, right?" ”

As he spoke, Chong Xiangzi squeezed his eyes mysteriously.

County Magistrate Liu ignored him, and Chong Xiangzi said with concern: "If you have something, you can go quickly, put away the gun, and ignore him." ”

Xiangzi playfully grimaced at Captain You, greeted everyone, and was about to turn around and leave.

County Magistrate Liu hurriedly said: "You have to come to the county office tomorrow morning, I have something to explain to you." ”
