Outside Chang'an City, twenty miles, there is a simple and dilapidated mountain temple in a remote mountain forest.

The mountain temple looks to have been abandoned for a long time, the exterior walls are pitted, and the roof is broken with several holes. Originally, the gate of the mountain temple was covered with cobwebs, but recently it seems that people are living in it, and the cobwebs at the entrance have been basically cleaned.

"Young master, the old slave sent someone back to Chang'an City to inquire about the direction of the wind, Lu Mingyu... was arrested, and the officers and soldiers also went to search for their houses, and it seems that the matter has been revealed, and we ...... Ay! An old man with gray hair and about sixty years old sighed bitterly and shook his head, his expression full of loneliness.

Zhou Daowu leaned against the corner, his face was pale and bloodless, and his left arm was wrapped with thick gauze, and a red blood stain oozed from the gauze.

The old man carefully unwrapped the gauze for him, and when he dismantled the last layer, although the action was very light, he accidentally pulled the wound, and the painful Zhou Daowu snorted, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Young Master, hold back! The old slave will change the medicine for you! The old man threw away the gauze in his hand and carefully examined the wound on Zhou Daowu's arm, his brows became tighter and tighter, and his face became more and more ugly.

"Young master, the situation is not good! The wound is rotten and pus, and if you don't find a doctor to take a look, I'm afraid this arm will be in danger. ”

Zhou Daowu's face was ugly, because the wound was on the back of his arm, he couldn't see it really, but the severe pain could make him imagine how serious the injury was.

He has also participated in several battles, and knows that this kind of injury cannot be delayed, and after a long time, it is really possible that the whole arm cannot be saved, and many soldiers are disabled for life because of the initial lack of attention.

"Uncle Zhong, you can't go to Chang'an City." Zhou Daowu gritted his teeth and said this sentence with difficulty.

Uncle Zhong nodded, "Chang'an City is really not going to Chang'an City, the old man will go to the nearest town here, be sure to find a doctor for the young master!" ”

Zhou Daowu nodded. After seeing Zhou Daowu's acquiescence, the old man was busy putting on another layer of gauze for him, which was simply coated with some herbs, all of which were picked from the surrounding mountains and forests, which could only play a role in relieving pain and treating the symptoms but not the root cause.

Then Uncle Zhong took a small pot again, set up a small stove where Zhou Daowu could reach, and put a small pile of dry firewood in his hand, and chanted while lighting the fire, "Young master, the old slave goes to find a doctor and doesn't know when he will be able to come back, maybe it won't go well until he comes back in the middle of the night, the old slave is not around, you just drink some hot soup, add some firewood to keep warm, and you must hold on until the old slave comes back." As he spoke, Uncle Zhong wiped away his tears in distress.

"The old man left early and entrusted the young master to the old slave, and as a result... As a result, the old slave still let the young master suffer such grievances, which is the sin of the old slave! If only I had gone to the doctor earlier, the old slave is guilty, and I'm sorry for the master's spirit in the sky. ”

Zhou Daowu's eyes gradually moistened, and he tugged at the corner of Uncle Zhong's clothes and said: "Uncle Zhong, don't blame yourself, it's me who is not good, I shouldn't be willful to assassinate Chen Fei, now... Now that the foundation of the Zhou family is ruined in my hands, I... I'm sorry for my father, I'm sorry for Uncle Zhong! ”

"Young master, don't say such things, the master once said, a manly man, dare to act, since you do it, you do it, don't regret your choice.

The young master's friendship with Princess Linchuan The old husband saw it clearly, His Majesty gave Linchuan a marriage to Chen Fei, and it was normal for the young master to react, but... Ay! Providence, providence! Uncle Zhong shook his head and sighed bitterly, and finally covered the quilt for Zhou Daowu, and instructed: "The young master waits with peace of mind, the old slave has set up a mechanical obstacle outside, and the beast can't enter, if it is fast, it will be half a day, and if it is slow, it will be a day, and the old slave will definitely find a doctor for the young master to come back!" ”

Zhou Daowu nodded: "There is Uncle Lao Zhong!" ”

Uncle Zhong packed up his things, and when he walked to the door, he glanced back at Zhou Daowu uneasily, then lowered his head and quickened his pace out of the mountain temple, walking towards the nearest town.

Just half an hour after Uncle Zhong left the Mountain Temple, a team of black-clothed people appeared around the Mountain Temple.

At the head was a masked man, and the man was the only one of them who was not dressed in black. A white coat set him off like a moon of stars.

Walking in front of the mountain temple, the man in the white mask just waved his hand lightly, and immediately someone came out of the queue and quickly removed the trap placed at the door. And after the personal experiment, he respectfully invited the man in white to enter the mountain temple.

Walking into the dilapidated mountain temple, the man in white walked towards Zhou Daowu step by step, except for the two men in black who followed, the rest of the people were waiting outside.

Zhou Daowu had already discovered this pair of people, and when he saw the man in white walking towards him, he immediately reached out and grabbed his saber, pulled out his saber and put it in front of him, and quickly stood up and made a defensive move.

At the same time, the two black-clothed men behind the man in white also reacted quickly, drawing knives to protect the man in white.

"Who are you? What do you want to do? ”

"Who? Hehe, you can guess. The man in white was not in a hurry, and waved away the two guards behind him, as if he didn't care about Zhou Daowu in front of him.

This feeling of being despised made Zhou Daowu quite uncomfortable, but the current situation was not in his favor, and he did not dare to act rashly.

"Wearing a mask, mysterious and mysterious, is he a bad person? I didn't expect to come to the door so soon! Zhou Daowu laughed self-deprecatingly, he didn't expect that so soon, bad people would come to the door, could it be that God was going to kill his Zhou family?

"Bad guys? Hahaha! The man in white seemed to have heard a full joke, and he looked up to the sky and laughed, and it took a long time to calm down.

However, all of a sudden, the man in white's tone became cold, and with a hint of disdain, "Are you so afraid of bad people?" ”

"You..." Zhou Daowu was shocked in his heart, and immediately reacted that these people should not be bad people, but the attitude of these people really made him angry.

"Who the hell are you? What is the purpose? ”

"Hehe, don't worry, I didn't come here for any purpose, I just wanted to take you to a place and help me."

Zhou Daowu didn't speak, he still crossed his knife, looking at the man in white vigilantly, he had an illusion, this man in white seemed to have seen it somewhere, not only did the figure look familiar, but even the voice sounded familiar, it seemed to be an old man.

"Looks like you're worried about me?" The man in white asked, and Zhou Daowu nodded.

"Huh." The man in white suddenly laughed, and reached out to slowly take off his mask. "It's really disappointing to me, we still grew up together, and old friends came to save you, and they were so unappreciative......."

The white-clothed man's mask slowly took off, Zhou Daowu's pupils contracted for a while, and he said in surprise: "It's you?" ”
