Chapter 109: Returning to the City [I]
It is said to be a stable, but in fact it is nothing more than a wooden stake nailed to the edge of the "island", and two horses are standing next to the stake, squinting and chewing the grass in their mouths. Because of the long chewing time, the grass green hara mixed with the soil jumped up and down with the opening of the horse's mouth.
Zhang Mancang broke free with great strength, making Xue Lao stumble and almost fall to the ground. Xue Lao was already in pain at this time, and when he saw that he was in a trance and was anxious to return to the city, he knew that something was wrong, and then followed two steps again. Zhang Mancang ran to the stable in a hurry, causing the horses who were having a relationship with Zhou Gong couldn't help but make a commotion, and the horses on the "lonely island" suddenly neighed. At the same time, Zhao Zheng was running south with his life on his shoulder, and Sun Sheng followed closely behind like a shadow. The "underworld" people inside and outside the ravine didn't seem to have the intention of chasing after each other, but just followed noisily and slowly for a few miles before returning home.
After Zhang Mancang untied one of the horses, he pulled and walked towards the south of the "island", Xue Lao grabbed a few steps and grabbed the reins, and asked again: "Brother Zhang, what's wrong?" What's wrong! ”
Xue Lao's withered old hand tightly pulled the reins of the horse, and he had a posture of never letting him go if he didn't make things clear. Zhang Mancang was in the mood to explain to him in detail at this time, pulled the reins over and said hysterically: "This matter is related to my king's secret life, and it can't be delayed, let the general get out of the way!" As he spoke, he dragged the reins and walked towards the south of the "island" without looking back. is the so-called "official level crushes people to death", not to mention that Zhang Mancang is Xue Lao's old boss, so when he saw Zhang Mancang throwing off his official authority to himself, although he was unwilling in his heart, he had no choice but to give up.
Zhang Mancang led the horse towards the south of the "island", and disappeared into the vast darkness in the blink of an eye, leaving only Xue Lao in the same place with a sad face, "Are they just dead......" Xue Lao couldn't stop muttering with old tears.
The road that Zhang Mancang took to lead Ma Nanxing was the extremely hidden path that Zhao Zheng took when he evacuated, and it was not easy to walk because of the danger of darkness at night. By the time Zhang Mancang led the horse out of the valley cliff, Zhao Zheng and his party had already fled away.
At this time, the silence of the night had already been restored outside the "island", Zhang Mancang pulled the horse out of the ravine, and then he impatiently turned over and whipped away, and in the "island", dozens of black shadows surrounded Xue Laotuan, standing there quietly like a ghost.
"Master, Little Six and Little Seven ......"
Just when everyone was silent, the little general said with a look of indignation, but before he finished speaking, Xue Lao interrupted: "Bury Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi thickly!" As for who killed the two, since the old man said that the king's secret order should not be leaked, then let's check it ourselves! ”
Xue Lao was very remorseful in his heart at this time, and felt more and more that he had done something extremely stupid, but the matter had come to this point, and he could only suffer this dumb loss. After Xue Lao's words, although the group of people did not speak, everyone's eyes were cold and full of murderous intent.
Not to mention that Xue Lao held an emergency meeting overnight to discuss countermeasures, and not to mention that Zhang Mancang, Zhao Zheng and others ran all the way south, let's just say that at this time, at the home of Old Doctor Liu, Aunt Chen and Zhao Ji were busy in a hurry, while Xia Wuqi leaned on the edge of the kang and clinged to Old Doctor Liu, frowning and listening carefully.
At this time, Old Doctor Liu's anger was like a gossamer, and his chapped old lips trembled slightly in Xia Wuqi's ears, and after a while, Old Doctor Liu's black and purple lips finally stopped trembling slightly, and his face was bitter and staring at Xia Wuqi with cloudy old eyes. Xia Wuqi glanced at Zhao Ji meaningfully, and then replied softly: "Don't be anxious, senior, when Zhang Jiangshuai comes, the kid will call you ......"
I don't know if it was Xia Wuqi's words that relieved Dr. Liu's heart, or because he was tired and unbearable, as soon as the words fell, Dr. Liu tilted his head and fell asleep again. Xia Wuqi stretched his somewhat sour body, rubbed his increasingly dry eyes, straightened up and couldn't help but sigh lightly, and moved his gaze to Chen Liangsi, the furrow on his forehead seemed to be a little deeper.
It was late at night, and because of the continuous rain that had just fallen, the grass hut seemed to be soaked in water. In order to prevent the wounds of Dr. Liu and Chen Liangsi from becoming infected and suppurating due to the tide, a bonfire burned in the house day and night. The blazing flames crackled the damp wood, but the house did not become much drier because of it, but made the room cloudy and smoked, and the people in the house coughed incessantly.
"It's not a way to do it all the time......" Xia Wuqi muttered.
On the side, Aunt Chen saw Xia Wuqi looking at Chen Liangsi with a solemn face, thinking that her son's life was in danger, and her already red and swollen glasses were instantly filled with tears, and in the next second, the tears couldn't stop falling again.
"Doctor Xia!"
With a "plop", Aunt Chen knelt on her knees and howled and begged: "Doctor Xia, save my son!" Please, save my son...... Save my son......"
Aunt Chen's sudden cry startled Xia Wuqi, in the corner, the sleepy little medicine apprentice and Ah Fang followed the voice in a daze, and next to the earthen stove, Zhao Ji, who was still washing, stopped what she was doing, and there were tears in her eyes.
Because of the circumstances, Zhao Ji couldn't help but think of her son's almost desperate appearance when he was dying, and tears couldn't stop whirling in his eyes.
Xia Wuqi was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly helped Aunt Chen up, "Sister-in-law Chen, what's the reason for this?" Xia Wuqi was puzzled.
Aunt Chen whimpered: "Old Doctor Liu is nearly seventy years old and has woken up now, while my son is in the age of Fang Gang but has not woken up for a long time...... Difficult...... It's hard to ......"
According to common sense, Chen Liangsi, who was in the prime of life, should have woken up early anyway, how could he fight in Xiali Village, Chen Liangsi suffered most of the injuries for the protection of Old Doctor Liu, resulting in serious injuries that were difficult to recover and could not wake up for a long time. Xia Wuqi comforted when he heard this: "Sister-in-law Chen, don't panic, although Chen Liangsi was seriously injured this time, fortunately, the important parts were not seriously injured, although he did not wake up at this time, his life was not in serious trouble, and he must be able to wake up in a few days." ”
Xia Wuqi's words were like a reassuring pill, which made Aunt Chen, who was still crying just now, suddenly quiet down a lot, "That's ...... Then please ask Doctor Xia to bother more......" Aunt Chen wiped her tears and whimpered.
"Sister-in-law Chen, don't worry, just leave it to the kid!" Xia Wuqi smiled slightly and replied softly.
Xia Wuqi's words made Zhao Ji feel aggrieved, and when she thought of Xia Wuqi's decision when her son's life was hanging by a thread before, the tears in her eyes couldn't stop flowing down her cheeks.
"Zheng'er ......"
Zhao Ji seemed to think of her son who was alone at home, and her originally stopped hands flew quickly in the basin, "Zheng'er, wait a while, my mother will go home as soon as she is done!" Zhao Ji kept muttering in her mouth while washing.
Zhao Ji is anxious because of her thoughts, and the speed of her work is much faster than usual, which is not good news for Zhao Zheng. At this time, Zhao Zheng had already led Sun Sheng to run south with Zhuang Chao on his back for four or five kilometers, and he stopped in a bush until he was sure that there was no one to follow him in the rear.
"Looks like we've got rid of them!" Sun Sheng squatted on the ground, looked around very vigilantly, and then whispered to Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng shook his head when he heard this and replied: "Don't take it lightly, you keep an eye on your surroundings, I'll see how Zhuang's situation is!" As he spoke, he leaned Zhuang against a small tree.
At this time, Zhuang was unkempt and covered with blood and mud, Zhao Zheng did not rush to wake him up, but examined Zhuang's body very carefully. When he forcibly broke Zhuang's mouth, an extremely strong killing intent instantly enveloped Zhao Zhengtuan......
