Chapter 119: Zhao Zheng Leaves the City [II]
Zhao Zheng only heard Xia Wuqi say that there was something going on in the south of the city, but it was not known what caused the killing, and it took him a while to run in the streets and alleys before he learned from the frightened people that it was caused by the forced labor riot on the city wall.
"Damn, call people like cattle and horses, it's strange if you don't riot!" Zhang Mancang muttered as he ran.
Zhao Zheng was actually not interested in the matter of hard labor and riots, and the reason why he hurriedly ran to the south of the city was because he was afraid that Shen Lang would be in a hurry and do something stupid.
As Zhao Zheng expected, when Zhao Zheng rushed to the vicinity of the South City Gate, the soldiers and civilians in the entire city were fighting fiercely at this time. Because Zhao Zheng was only a six-year-old child at this time, he couldn't see the situation at the foot of the city wall at all, and only felt that the old and young, sick and disabled, men, women and children around him were squeezing in the direction of the city gate, and there were extremely harsh insults in his ears from time to time.
"This can't be done, Lao Tzu has to find a way to stand tall, otherwise it is impossible not to see Shen Lang!"
Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng immediately used all his strength to squeeze aside. Just when Zhao Zheng was holding back his little face and fighting against the rolling crowd, he suddenly felt a big hand on his shoulder and never moved again. Zhao Zheng wanted to break free with all his strength, but he couldn't use his strength because he was deeply confined and just when Zhao Zheng was about to turn his head, he suddenly heard a voice behind him: "Master, it's me, Lang'er......"
Zhao Zheng couldn't help but be surprised and happy when he heard this, and when he followed the prestige, he saw Shen Lang grinning at himself with pale lips and smirking "hehe".
"You...... Why are you here? I'm looking for you! Zhao Zheng said to Shen Lang in a low voice.
Shen Lang looked around vigilantly and said, "It's inconvenient to talk here, let's go!" As he spoke, he picked up Zhao Zheng and squeezed in the opposite direction, and after two or three cups of tea, the two of them deviated from the crowd and ran westward.
"Lang'er, your wound ......"
Feeling some stickiness in his chest, Zhao Zheng knew that Shen Lang's wound had cracked, and the blood began to flow out uncontrollably, and in the blink of an eye, the originally shriveled bandage became wet and soft again.
"It's okay...... It's okay to ......," Shen Lang replied vaguely.
Zhao Zheng always felt that Shen Lang was a little weird, and then asked, "What's wrong?" There are so many people, how did you find me? ”
Shen Lang didn't reply when he heard this, and only stopped when he came to a dilapidated courtyard.
"Huhu...... Master, you can let the apprentice chase ...... all the way," Shen Lang panted.
Zhao Zheng was puzzled by Shen Lang's endless words, "You have been following me all the time?" Shen Lang nodded in response.
"You went to my house to look for me?" Zhao Zheng was a little surprised.
Shen Lang nodded and replied: "The apprentice wanted to go out of the city to see Sheng'er today, but he was afraid of causing trouble to the master, so he didn't dare to make his own opinion, so he came to the master." ”
Zhao Zheng looked at Shen Lang with a black line on his face when he heard this, "Do you know what happened on the city wall at this time?" ”
Shen Lang replied: "On the way, I heard that it was a hard labor riot mutiny!" ”
"Now that you know you have to go out of the city, do you think it's possible?" Zhao Zheng didn't have a good airway.
"But ......"
"But you think it's okay to get out of the city while you're in the chaos, do you?" Zhao Zheng asked.
Shen Lang didn't reply when he heard this, but judging from his facial reaction, Zhao Zheng knew that his worries had come true.
Zhao Zheng couldn't help but sigh, and then said with some fear: "Thanks to the fact that you still have me as a master in your heart, otherwise you will really be killed!" The reason why the teacher is there is because he is afraid that your brain will be hot, and he wants to take advantage of the chaos to get out of the city and want to intercept you! ”
"The apprentice should die, it's the apprentice who is reckless...... said that, Shen Lang wanted to kowtow to Zhao Zheng to compensate him.
Seeing this, Zhao Zheng hurriedly stopped and said: "You are eager to understand the teacher, but at this time, when you can't compare to him, you have to use your brain when you go out of the city, and you are afraid that you will be recognized by the Zhao people and beaten to death with a stick just by relying on the word 'mix'!" ”
"How's that good?" Shen Lang asked.
"Zhuang is seriously injured, and the teacher will go to the city today to heal Zhuang, otherwise he won't be able to survive tonight!" Zhao Zheng said with a solemn face.
"What does Master need the apprentice to do?" Shen Lang asked.
Zhao Zheng shook his head and said: "The wound on your body is not well and will open again at this time, I will re-bandage it for you later, you are not allowed to go anywhere today, and you can wait for the news of the teacher with peace of mind!" ”
"But ......"
"There is nothing to do, this matter is so decided, you did not act on your own, you are very satisfied with the teacher, and when the teacher comes back from outside the city, I will teach you a hand, and it may be of great use in the near future!" In order to stabilize Shen Lang, Zhao Zheng immediately spoke.
As soon as Shen Lang heard that as long as he was obedient, Zhao Zheng would teach himself skills after returning to the city, his eyes couldn't help but light up, "Master rest assured, wait for Master to return to the city!" Shen Lang said with a grin.
"This old guy ......," Zhao Zheng said with a smile in his heart.
It was not a problem to bandage Shen Lang's wounds, and after explaining some matters to Shen Lang, Zhao Zheng got up and ran towards the south gate again. When Zhao Zheng returned to the foot of Nancheng City again, it was already three strokes in the sun, and the battle was over, Zhang Mancang dragged his tired body towards the royal city, and the people present cleaned the battlefield in an orderly manner under the orders of the commander.
Although Zhao Zheng was born in the army and had experienced the bloody ups and downs of life and death on the battlefield, he was still stunned by the scene in front of him.
"Damn! In contrast, Lao Tzu still likes to be shot to death! Zhao Zheng grinned and scolded.
Although Zhao Zheng said to Shen Lang that he wanted to get out of the city wisely, he found that even racking his brains was in vain. At this time, although the city gate was wide open, the soldiers and civilians present were also busy cleaning up the corpses, and no one had the time to pay attention to him, a six-year-old child, but in the doorway, dozens of Zhao Jun, who were covered in blood and vicious, looked at both sides of the city gate vigilantly, and there was a slight movement to attack in groups. Just when Zhao Zheng was at a loss, Xia Wuqi, who was suddenly covered in sweat, walked towards him quickly.
"What are you going to do!" Xia Wuqi scolded.
"Uh-uh...... Back to Uncle Xia, there is no firewood at home, so the kid goes to pick up some firewood! Zhao Zheng bowed and bowed.
Xia Wuqi saw that Zhang Mancang didn't take the rope and didn't hold the knife, so he immediately scolded angrily: "Hmph! The Qin people really don't have a good thing, and giving birth to a wild seed is also stealing and playing tricks! ”
Zhao Zheng was scolded by Xia Wuqi and looked confused, "I'll ...... I didn't think that a person who seemed to be gentle and elegant could scold people so viciously! Lao Tzu is also half of the Zhao people, right? Zhao Zheng muttered unconvinced.
However, before he could come to his senses, there were a few more herbs and a basket in his hand, "Oh, the medicine brought by the old man is almost exhausted, you go to Handan to pick these herbs according to these herbs, you must hurry up, the old man needs it urgently!" As he spoke, he impatiently pushed Zhao Zheng out of the city gate.
Zhao Zheng looked at Xia Wuqi with a confused expression, where did he ever think that he would be driven out by Xia Wuqi in this way. Zhao Zheng laughed dryly at the evil stars in the doorway, and then picked up the medicine basket and ran away......
