Chapter 5 Survival in the Wild Temple
The master and apprentice took care of the other wounds until early in the morning, and finally finished it. Yuan Yun, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, shouted bad luck, fell asleep on the ground, Zuo Laodao shook his head with a wry smile, and then found a piece of grass to cover Yuan Yun's body, and then turned around and began to clean up the scattered things.
Cao Ang woke up soon after, and when he found himself lying by a fire with a straw quilt on his body, he also understood that he had been rescued, but at the moment he still felt very weak, especially the cold in his body, and even a little shivering, because of excessive blood loss.
Tilting his head, Cao Ang found that there was a small child lying on his left hand, sleeping sweetly, and on the side sat an old man with white hair and beard, his face was a little haggard, but the spirit in his eyes was unusually abundant.
"Don't look at me, your life was saved by this little doll." Seeing Cao Ang staring at him, Zuo Laodao had already guessed what the other party was thinking.
"Can you give me some water?" Cao Ang's voice was a little hoarse, and his mouth was very.
Lao Dao smiled slightly when he heard this, took some boiled water and gave it to Cao Ang to drink, and then returned to the position just now, and then began to look at Cao Ang lying on the ground as if admiring his masterpiece.
Cao Ang relieved the thirst in his mouth, and finally looked at the young man who was asleep on his left hand in confusion, and then smiled bitterly at Zuo Lao Dao: "Old man, don't bully me, this child looks only fourteen or fifteen years old, how can he treat this kind of sword injury, and the ...... in my chest"
Speaking of this, Cao Ang suddenly stopped talking, his eyes became even more puzzled, he is a good martial artist, how much he was injured, and he naturally knew very well in his heart, although he hoped that the two people in front of him could save him last night, but it was also a grudge to survive, and the terrifying sword wound on his chest, it stands to reason that it is impossible to live.
For a while, Cao Ang was in a trance, is he alive or dead now? The old man in front of him has white hair and silver eyebrows, a kind and clean face, no matter how he looks at it, he looks like those virtuous people who have become immortals, isn't he really dead? No longer in the world at this moment? But the sharp pain in his chest was so real.
Zuo Laodao kept watching Cao Ang's expression change, which seemed to be very interesting, until the other party was stunned again, and then said with a smile: "You should have known that you would definitely die last night, because the opening in your chest was too deep to stop the bleeding, but you are still alive now, the reason is that the child in front of you sewed up your cracked opening with needle and thread to stop the blood from overflowing, which saved your life." ”
Cao Ang was shocked when he heard this, and tried hard to see the condition on his chest, but after he moved slightly, a huge pain came, which made him quickly give up the idea of taking a look, and then breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "What the old man said is really unbelievable, even if this child uses this method to stitch up the wound, it must have been taught by the old man, so thank the old man." ”
Zuo Laodao smiled, still shook his head and said: "This method is not taught by the old way, it is completely out of this doll's own thoughts, but these are all small things, since Cao Ang Shizi survived, then it is all a good thing." ”
Cao Ang naturally didn't believe that he was rescued by a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child, and he didn't want to be favored by the old man in front of him, so he found such a lame excuse, but since the life-saving benefactor was unwilling to fall into the customs, he Cao Ang didn't need to emphasize anything, thinking that he would have the opportunity to repay him well in the future.
Zuo Lao Dao saw that Cao Ang was not talking, but asked: "It was rumored that Cao Ang's son died because he saved his father, why did he appear here?" Although this place is near Wancheng, it is the opposite of Xu Du, are you lost and chose the wrong direction to escape? ”
Cao Ang looked at Zuo Laodao, hesitated in his heart, but quickly made a decision, and then replied: "I was not killed after saving my father, but I was captured by an arrow in my body, and was finally locked up by Zhang Xiu, and then I escaped again, and killed seven or eight people all the way to escape from Wancheng, but I was also seriously injured, if I continue to flee in the direction of Xudu, I will definitely not be able to escape the pursuers, so I chose the opposite direction, so far Zhang Xiu's pursuers seem to be in the middle of the plan." ”
Zuo Laodao's eyes lit up, and he praised him sincerely: "I heard that Cao Ang Shizi is smart and capable, and what I saw today is really like this, he is really a good man with both wisdom and bravery." ”
Cao Ang's face turned red after being praised, and he said embarrassedly: "If I hadn't been rescued by the old gentleman last night, no matter how good my thoughts were, I would have been able to escape death, so I can only say that I was lucky." ”
At this time, Cao Ang was about twenty years old, although there was still some immaturity on his face, but his bearing was bold and modest, and his words made people feel decent and moderate, so that Zuo Laodao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the Cao family is really talented.
"Your father has returned to Xudu safely, I don't know if the prince of Cao Ang has heard of this?" After Zuo Laodao finished speaking, he deliberately observed Cao Ang.
Cao Ang seemed to have heard about this just now, and he couldn't help but show joy immediately, there was no fraud at all, but he was sincerely happy for his father Cao Cao, which suddenly made Zuo Laodao make some kind of decision.
After being happy for a while, Cao Ang said happily: "This is good, this is good, I have always been worried about whether my father could escape that night, and now I finally let go of one thing, it is really good."
Zuo Lao Dao was very satisfied with this answer, so he smiled and said: "Cao Ang Shizi is seriously injured now, leaving you alone is equivalent to making you wait for death, Lao Dao, I have decided to give Shizi a ride until you are safe." ”
Cao Ang was stunned, he didn't want this old way to be so benevolent, but he was a little confused, so he asked directly: "Why is the old gentleman so benevolent, how can Cao Ang be virtuous?" ”
Zuo Lao Dao smiled and said: "Lao Dao, I naturally need to pay first if I have something to ask for, and Cao Ang Shizi doesn't have to doubt too much." ”
Cao Ang was told by Zuo Lao Dao that he was suspicious, and couldn't help blushing a little, and relieved his emotions a little, so he hesitated: "I am seriously injured, and Zhang Xiu is chasing me everywhere, I am afraid that this road is full of dangers, if the old gentleman and your apprentice are implicated, I am afraid that Cao Ang will regret it." ”
Zuo Lao Dao laughed again, and then said: "Cao Ang Shizi is probably not a person who accepts his fate, and my Lao Dao is not a person who promises easily, since he has promised, he will definitely help each other to the end, and there will be no regrets." ”
Cao Ang heard Zuo Lao Dao say this, and finally said gratefully: "When I return to Xudu, I will definitely thank the old man for his great kindness." ”
Zuo Lao Dao shook his hand and said with a smile: "Lao Dao, I have already seen through the world, and I don't care about any thanks, there is only one small thing I hope Cao Ang Shizi can agree." ”
