156. was discovered
Du Ling's spirit seems to be much better, and he has been sitting beside Nangong Jin since he set off.
When we set off, the genius was bright. The clothes of the tartars are really warm. Du Ling found two more blankets, and both of them were tightly wrapped. That's not all, although no one sat in the carriage, he still raised a small stove in it, and pulled down the curtain by the way.
It didn't take long for the snow seeds to begin to fall.
"You go inside, it's cold outside." Nangong Jin looked at Du Lingdao, whose nose was frozen and red.
Du Ling shook his head, "You're cold too." Besides, if I go in, you will be out alone to catch the car, how boring it will be. ”
Nangong Jin looked at the sky, "No matter how big it is, we have to find a place to stop." If you can't see clearly, you will get lost. You better go in, find something to eat, and see if there's any wine to warm up......"
"Still drinking! No way! ”
"Say it's used to it," Nangong Jin smiled helplessly, "Find something to warm up, don't get sick." ”
After a while, Du Ling didn't move, but just asked, "When will we arrive at Tumochuan?" ”
Nangong Jin looked at the sky, "If the sky is like this, it's hard to say." Don't worry, it's only four or five days away, but it's not a few days. There were a few small sections on the road, and the snow was really heavy, so we went there first. ”
I don't know if they were lucky. Around noon, the snow seeds actually stopped falling, and the sky was open with snow eyes, and it was very cold. Nangong Jin stopped to rest, feed the horses, ate some food given by Du Ling, and got into the car to hurry, thinking about getting to the small tribe on the road as soon as possible.
However, in the evening, the snowflakes began to fall again, and they grew bigger and bigger, and they were white in front and behind.
"No, I'm going to sleep in the car tonight." Nangong Jin parked, let go of the horse, got out of the car and quickly set up a sloping shed along the roof of the car, covering the horse and the cart inside. He half-erected the tent to block the wind, then cleared a piece of land and dug a small pit to prepare for a fire. Seeing that Du Ling was standing aside and wanted to help, he handed over the fire fold, "You come." ”
Du Ling took it in a daze, and saw that some dead grass had been piled up in the pit to start a fire. Nangong Jin didn't care about him, took out some charcoal, firewood and the like from the back of the car, piled them up beside him, and then got into the car very casually and entered the carriage.
Du Ling worked hard to light a fire on the pile of dead grass. A crisp sneeze made Du Ling react instantly, and he rushed into the car without having time to throw anything in his hand.
The big box opened, and the two children sat in the box without saying a word. Nangong Jin looked at them in a daze, saw Du Ling coming up, and slowly turned his head to look at Du Ling, "I feel like I'm hallucinating." He smirked and said, "You must not know what I saw." ”
Du Ling didn't dare to look at him, and said weakly, "Cheng Jun, Cheng Rui......." ”
At this time, Cheng Rui sneezed again, and sniffed hard, seeing Nangong Jin staring at him again, he smiled and waved his hand to say hello, "Uncle." ”
"You, you ......!" Nangong Jin opened her mouth and looked at them in disbelief.
Chengjun looked at Nangong Jin embarrassedly, "Master, it's us." Seeing that Nangong Jin still looked a little disbelieving, she tried her best to smile cutely, "Isn't it a surprise?" ”
Nangong Jin took a deep breath and pushed Du Ling out of the car.
"Surprise! Surprise! Nangong Jin was under the car, and he was about to go away, shouting angrily: "Du Ling, you come out for me!" ”
Du Ling lowered his head, squatted on the wheel, and did not dare to get out of the car.
Nangong Jin pointed at him and scolded: "You, you are going to die all the way because you hid two children!" You're a pig! Don't know where we're going? Go green! ”
Chengjun timidly stretched out his head and whispered, "Master, I forced Dr. Du to bring us here." ”
"You, go in!" Nangong Jin pointed at him and ordered. Chengjun immediately retracted into the carriage.
"You're brainless! Threatened by two children! The two of them combined, they're not as old as you, you're, a live dog! Nangong Jin continued to scold.
Du Ling cried, "I, I, I don't want to, this way, I can't eat or sleep well, I don't know how I got here, on the way, on the road, they lost ......." ”
"Are you stupid! Why not? Yes! It should have been said at the beginning! Nangong Jin glared at him angrily.
Du Ling jumped out of the car, lowered his head and walked into the snow, crying and saying, "It's all my fault, they took the letter, and it's my fault that they took the letter." Nangong Jin, I'm enough! I don't want to follow you! Don't follow you!
"It's justified to do something wrong!" Nangong Jin yelled behind him: "you, come back for me!" ”
Du Ling ignored it, cried and buried his head and continued to walk. Nangong Jin went up and pulled him back, and said angrily: "Looking for death?!" Get back in the car! ”
Du Ling stood still. Nangong Jin ignored him, took back the fire fold he was holding, walked to the edge of the pit, and lit a fire. "You can't see anything fifty paces away, I'll see how you die!"
Du Ling stood for a while, looked up and looked outside, it was indeed white or white, let alone fifty steps away.
Nangong Jin tried her best to calm herself down while lighting a fire, but the matter had come to this point, and it was useless to get angry and angry. The fire was lit, and the red light brought a hint of warmth. Nangong Jin stiffened his face and added firewood, without raising his head, and angrily ordered Du Ling, "Go and bring the dried meat and buns." ”
Du Ling hesitated for a moment and slowly walked back to the car. In the car, the two children looked at Du Ling like rabbits, and Chengjun whispered, "I'm sorry." ”
Du Ling nodded, took the ingredients and got out of the car.
Nangong Jin still didn't look at him, took the things handed by Du Ling, and set up a pot to cook. "What about faith?"
Du Ling was stunned, not thinking about how to answer.
"I've found it all, and I'll have to wait until I get it back to Tumochuan?!" Nangong Jin raised his head and glared at Du Ling.
After a while, Du Ling took the letter back from Chengjun and handed it to Nangong Jin. Nangong Jin threw it into the fire, "No brains!" ”
While it was still cooking, Nangong Jin walked to the side of the carriage and said to the children, "Do you want to come down and pee?" ”
"Yes." Cheng Rui raised his little hand.
Nangong Jin picked him up, picked up a piece of clothing and put it on him, Chengjun also got out of the car, Nangong Jin looked at him, "It's cold outside, put on a piece of clothing and come down." ”
After solving the problem, Nangong Jin took the wool felt on the ground, and the four of them finally sat down around the fire. After a while, the aroma wafted away, Cheng Rui swallowed his saliva and looked at Nangong Jin.
Nangong Jin was expressionless and didn't say a word, added some seasoning, picked up a bowl and served it to everyone, and took a large piece of mutton and roasted it on the fire. Finally, he asked, "What do you say?" ”
Cheng Rui only cared about the fragrance of his own food, Cheng Jun and Du Ling glanced at each other, not knowing how to answer.
For a long time, only the sound of snow falling on the ground was heard, Cheng Rui sat in Nangong Jin's arms early, munching on mutton, his face was full of oil, and the other two were cautious and didn't know how to eat.
Du Ling wanted to open his mouth several times and endured it, secretly looked at Chengjun, and saw that he didn't dare to raise his head, so he pursed his lips and whispered: "Why don't you let Li Mo send him back to Pingyang?" ”
"Li Mo? Do you know how many days it takes to go back with such heavy snow? Even if we arrived at the Talihabu, we didn't know if Li Mo was there. Is it to chase to the city of Toto? Let's not talk about how many days it will take. If I arrive and find that he is lucky enough to find a guide to go to Bauktu, then I can only say that we will not see him before the beginning of spring. Looking at Du Ling, he was still a little unconvinced and wanted to say something, "Let me remind you, we don't have much time." ”
Hearing Nangong Jin say this, Chengjun was overjoyed, looked up at Nangong Jin, and said pleadingly: "Master, then let's go to Tumochuan with you, we are very well-behaved......." ”
Nangong Jin was silent.
Cheng Rui rubbed in his arms, and then Cheng Jun's words, and said coquettishly: "Uncle, Cheng Rui is very well-behaved." Really, I didn't make noise all the way, I followed my brother, I was very obedient and obedient, I slept when I was bored in the car, and sometimes I hugged my brother when it was cold. It was dark at night, and Cheng Rui was very scared and didn't cry. Sometimes, I miss my father and my uncle very much, but I don't say it. Uncle, I don't want to leave you. After speaking, he hugged Nangong Jin with tears.
Nangong Jin sighed slightly, patted Cheng Rui, and still asked Cheng Jun seriously: "Do you know what is wrong?" ”
Cheng Jun lowered his head, and said softly after a while: "Master, Cheng Jun knows that he is wrong. At first, he shouldn't have forced Uncle Du to make him in a dilemma; shouldn't have taken his younger brother to take risks, knowing that Cheng Rui was afraid, he made him suffer a lot; Now ...... embarrassed the master again. With his head lowered, his voice became softer and softer, but he became more and more stubborn, "But I really want to follow the master, my mother doesn't let us practice martial arts, doesn't let us learn other things, says it's miscellaneous, and we don't learn well." Master, I don't want to take the exam, the gentleman in the school doesn't even know how old Da Ming is, he only knows the endorsement. Master, it doesn't matter if you don't teach me, Chengjun just wants to follow you. ”
"That's all?"
Cheng Jun scratched his head, secretly looked at Nangong Jin, and held back for a long time without thinking of anything else, so he could only keep silent.
Nangong Jin glanced at him, "Didn't you sneak out?" ”
Chengjun was stunned and nodded.
"After so many days, aren't you afraid that your family will be in a hurry? Aren't you afraid that your father and mother will go crazy? ”
Chengjun looked at Nangong Jin aggrievedly, "I left a letter." ”
Nangong Jin became alert and asked, "Letter?" What do you say? ”
Chengjun lowered his head and whispered, "I know, if I say that I follow the master, my mother will be even more angry with the master." So, I just told the family not to worry, I took my brother out for a walk and came back in a few days. Glancing at Nangong Jin, afraid that he would blame himself, he said cautiously: "Master, you have been away from home for eighteen years ......." Moreover, I have never written a letter to my family. ”
Nangong Jin was speechless for a while, and her expression was embarrassed. Du Ling raised his eyes to look at Nangong Jin, and felt that what Cheng Jun said was right, with an expression of 'aren't you the same'.
After a while, Nangong Jin said: "Your mother told you a long time ago, this is not right. Bad things, don't learn. There was no momentum in what he said, and he felt a little weak, "Forget it outside, and get punished when you go home." Look at Cheng Rui, who has been snuggling in his arms, "And Cheng Rui, if you do something wrong, you will be punished." ”
Cheng Rui nodded pitifully, "Cheng Rui knows that he is wrong. ”
Nangong Jin thought for a while and said to the two children: "Since you can only follow me, then I will also make it clear, starting tomorrow, I will practice boxing after I get up." You have to learn how to recognize the way, including Du Ling. Chengjun has to learn how to drive, and the horse is your responsibility. In the future, the matter of lighting a fire will belong to Du Ling. At noon, he will stop for half an hour, in addition to eating and resting, Cheng Rui also has to practice big characters. I'll teach the three of you Tatar. Got it? ”
Chengjun was ecstatic and nodded happily.
"Also, there are some things that I want you to explain clearly." Nangong Jin paused, as if thinking about what to say. "The area bordering the Ming Dynasty belongs to the Tatar Tumut tribe, which is a large part of 30,000 households, including the small tribes we visited yesterday and will come later. The Tumo River where we are going is a plain, and the land is fertile, and there is a great city called Bansheng, where the Great Khan of the Tumut tribe lives. The Tatars are no longer nomadic, so you will see a lot of houses, and Han Chinese. ”
"Those Han people came to Tatar for various reasons, and many of them did not like the Ming Dynasty, would say a lot of slanderous things about the Ming Dynasty, and even instigated the Han people to attack the Ming towns. I want you to understand one thing, you are all Han people, you are the people of the Ming Dynasty, no matter where you are, this will not change. I don't deny the words of those people, and I admit that Da Ming is not perfect, but you must understand that these are not the reasons for your betrayal of Da Ming! You were born in the Ming Dynasty and grew up in the Ming Dynasty, unless you want to go back to the previous dynasty to be a slave! I allow you to be disloyal to you, but you must not be disloyal to the Ming Dynasty! You must always remember that you are Han and Ming, we can have nothing, but we must have backbone! If you can't even do this, I, Nangong Jin, will never miss the affection of flesh and blood. Got it? Nangong Jin's tone became more and more serious.
The three of them nodded cautiously and said in unison, "Understood." ”
After that, Nangong Jin asked Du Ling to have a pulse rash for the two children, and Du Ling prepared some decoction for cold and disease prevention, and let everyone drink it.
The snow was still falling, Nangong Jin raised the stove and laid the futon in the car, and drove the two children to sleep in the car. Although Cheng Rui had to stick to him, after Nangong Jin promised that he would leave after they fell asleep, he still obediently followed Cheng Jun into the quilt, just to let Nangong Jin hum a little song to coax him to sleep like a mother. Helplessly, I had to take out a piccolo and gently blow an unknown but soothing tune, accompanied by the sound of this 'rustling' snow, it was a little warm.
Nangong Jin got out of the car, and Du Ling was still sitting by the fire.
"Why don't you sleep?"
"I'm thinking, if I were Chengjun, I wouldn't be able to get here." Du Ling's expression was frustrated.
Nangong Jin said angrily: "There should be a big boss in the caravan." Fortunately, there was no one to take care of without you, and nothing major happened. ”
Du Ling wanted to cry a little, hugging his knees and curling into a ball, "Am I particularly useless?" It doesn't matter, you just say it. ”
Nangong Jin looked at him and hugged the bunk from the back of the car, "That's true." He said, "If you hadn't saved people's lives, it would be almost like a waste." He took out the copper stove again, put a few pieces of carbon from the fire and put it in, put it in a cotton sleeve and handed it to Du Ling. Take it. Seeing that Du Ling's nose was red again, he sighed: "But in this world, there are very few people who can become miracle doctors, and you have this possibility." In this respect, you are more useful than me. ”
Du Ling took the stove and hugged it, "I must become a miracle doctor." My Master has said that I can! ”
However, a miracle doctor can't just heal. It is said that the heart of the doctor's parents, if you are the parents of Chengjun and Chengrui, and now the child is gone, is it in a hurry? ”
Du Ling didn't say a word, just stared blankly at the fire.
"Divine doctors, not only must have rare medical skills in the world, but also have a heart to help the world." looked at Du Ling again, "This is just my understanding, you should have yours." Well, I'm tired today, so rest early. Tomorrow look at the sky, as far as possible to the small part in front. Go sleep in the tent, I won't help you spread it tomorrow, get it yourself. ”
Du Ling sat for a while and looked at Nangong Jin, "What about you?" ”
"Vigil."
"I'll accompany you." Du Ling looked at him and said with a little flattery.
"No, if you can leave tomorrow, you need someone to drive."
Du Ling nodded.
Nangong Jin took out the piccolo and said, "Go to sleep." After speaking, he gently blew a warm tune.
