Chapter 3 The Grace of Dripping Water
Lu Bu lay in place for a long time, thinking about a lot of things, his family, the Son of Heaven, and the next plan, as if a century had passed, and the man who fetched the water had finally returned.
It was still a rustling sound, accompanied by a female voice, "The general has been waiting for a long time, and the concubine is late." "The voice is a little stiff and strange, the pronunciation is a little unsmooth, I don't know, I thought it was a different person.
Lu Bu couldn't speak, and the burning sensation in his throat made him unable to speak.
"General, open your mouth."
Without thinking much about it, Lu Bu opened his mouth very obediently, and the water was like nectar, soaking his mouth and throat, giving him a feeling of rebirth. This water tastes better than spirits. Before I had time to enjoy it, the nectar was gone, and the water was gone.
"The general waits, I'll go get it again, I've found the creek, this time it will be faster."
Lu Bu nodded, expressing acquiescence and gratitude.
Lu Bu, who was lying on the spot, recovered slightly, opened his eyes vigorously, the sunlight was still dazzling, and he squinted his eyes to adapt to the sunlight. The sky was cloudless and blue, and I struggled to turn my head to see where I was.
Looking to the left-hand side, there were corpses all over the field, the halberd lay quietly beside him, and the red rabbit was eating the blood-stained grass not far away.
Yourself, still on the battlefield last night?
A hundred kinds of doubts came to my heart.
As I pondered, the rustling sound came again, indeed much faster than the last time, although it was still a long wait.
It was still the same stiff voice, "General, water." ”
The voice was on the right, and Lu Bu turned his head, wanting to drink water, wanting to see what the person next to him was like.
A dirty face, some messy hair, a helmet in his mouth, and a small amount of water, his clothes are gray and red, gray is dust, red is blood.
Lying on the ground, he looked at Lu Bu with concerned eyes. This person seems to be the woman in Dong Zhuo's car last night.
Seeing Lu Bu looking at him, he thought he was asking for the water in his helmet, so he hurriedly approached Lu Bu, and the rustling sound was the sound of a woman squirming on the ground.
Lu Bu was a little dumbfounded, ignoring Lu Bu's surprised eyes, the woman moved in front of Lu Bu little by little, holding the helmet in her mouth, raising her head vigorously, and sending water into the general's mouth.
Drinking the sweet spring again, it is not as sweet as before, but there are hundreds of flavors.
Seeing that Lu Bu drank the water in the helmet, the woman was very satisfied, moved a small distance, loosened her mouth, put down the helmet, gasped for breath, and her small mouth trembled weakly.
"General, does the general still need water?"
Lu Bu shook his head, looked at the woman lying beside him, and asked in a weak voice, "Girl, what's wrong with you?" ”
The woman recalled the events of last night, and her face was painful,
"General, do you really want to listen?"
Lu Bu first nodded, then shook his head,
"If the girl doesn't want to talk about it, forget it."
"The benefactor requested, how could the concubine refuse."
Move your body to make yourself more comfortable on your stomach and start remembering the events of last night.
It turned out that after Dong Zhuo's death was exposed last night, the woman who cut Dong Zhuo with a thousand knives was captured by Li Ru and killed directly, and it was difficult to understand the hatred in her heart, so she cut off the meridians of her hands and feet, abandoned it in the barren mountains and mountains, tasted fear, and became the food of wild beasts.
While waiting for death, a far-sighted horse, holding a faint general, ran back here, it was Chitu and Lu Bu.
"Maybe the beast was also afraid of the heroism of the general, but before the beast approached, the general saved the life of the concubine."
The woman spoke lightly, as if all this suffering was someone else's story and had nothing to do with herself.
Lu Bu was panicked when he heard this, his revenge actually killed others.
"Girl, I'm dragging you down."
"General don't say this, last night in the car, the concubine suffered a lot of humiliation, her heart is dead, the general is for me, the thief in his hand, I can't be grateful, why drag it down? The general's kindness cannot be repaid. ”
Lu Bu was speechless.
"Is the general hungry, I saw a few wild fruits on the journey, wait, I'll go and get them."
Without waiting for Lu Bu to speak, he moved his thin body and walked forward slowly, still with a rustling sound, Lu Bu listened, looked at the person who was gradually moving away, and wanted to stop it, but it was already far away.
How can I, Lu Bu, be able to repay you like this, I am just a criminal who failed to protect the Son of Heaven and a loser who failed to protect my family. Now I have nothing, how can I repay it?
The woman who was moving forward slowly naturally didn't think like this, the pain from all over her body didn't make her stop, she did anything for her benefactor, she was willing, she didn't ask for anything in return, she was grateful for it, and Yongquan reciprocated, not to mention that Lu Bu's kindness to her was greater than Yongquan.
In the wilderness, among the tens of thousands of dead corpses, two remaining lives, struggling, moving, thinking of repaying gratitude, thinking of survival.
Yes! Great, the fruit is still there! The woman stared at the place ahead, where three or two rotten fruits lay quietly, like hope, in front of her eyes.
Hurriedly stepped forward, picked up a wild fruit, and controlled the strength, for fear of crushing hope.
Just as he was about to turn around, a dog's bark came from beside him, and a dirty yellow-haired dog ran up, picked up a fruit and ran back, this damn vicious dog! The woman was a little panicked, looked at the fruit that was only one left, and thought to herself, she must go back quickly, otherwise the last one will be taken away by this beast, and the general will have nothing to eat.
Quickly turn around, endure the pain, move quickly, she has to hurry, she has to follow the pace of hope, she wants to repay the kindness.
When she returned to her place, the scene in front of her surprised her a little, wasn't that a brute? This will be lying quietly beside the benefactor, wagging his tail, pitiful.
Lu Buzheng was biting on the fruit with a satisfied expression.
The woman bit the fruit in her mouth, but she couldn't speak, so she moved to Lu Bu's side, put the fruit on Lu Bu's mouth, and stared at the yellow-haired puppy suspiciously.
Lu Bu saw what the woman was thinking, swallowed the crumbs in her mouth, and explained to her,
"Don't be surprised, this dog is raised by my daughter, it should be scattered in the chaos, lost here, just saw it, called it to find food, I didn't expect that this dog is really human, listen to people, and it is worthy of my daughter to adopt and take care of it."
Lu Bu's voice regained some strength, and after lying down for so long, his body recovered a lot.
The puppy barked twice, looking very proud, wagging its tail and fiddling with the two small bells around Lu Bu's waist, making the bells jingle.
In this person, there is the smell of the master.
The stone in the woman's heart fell, relieved, the worries just now were superfluous.
Watching Lu Bu gobble up, he ate the fruit in three or two times, remembering that there was still a fruit there, and hurriedly said to Lu Bu, "Benefactor, there is still fruit in that place, I'll go get it." ”
"Girl, you are incapacitated, three times and twice to bring me water and food, a certain grateful, and then let the girl go, a certain heart is uneasy, I can call this dog to go, the girl will rest here."
As he spoke, he called to the puppy beside him, "Hey, Xiaoyi, go find more food." ”
It should be the name, and that's what Ling'er seems to call it that day.
The puppy snorted twice in protest, this adult even called his own name wrong, if the owner didn't treat me very well on weekdays, I wouldn't go! While screaming, he walked on his short legs, ran and jumped, and went looking for food.
Puppies still understand kindness, let alone humans.
The grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated with a gushing spring.
