Chapter Thirty-Nine: Going Out of the City to Find Tea
"Lan Jun? What are you doing here? Doesn't it give you a good rest at home? Tang Xu hurried over, seeing that he was still carrying a small burden, did he want to leave?
"Now that the whole city is under martial law, and those Khitans haven't been arrested yet, it's too dangerous for you to come out so casually. "www.biquge.info Tang Xu wanted to send Lan Jun back, but Lan Jun refused.
"Tang Gongzi, now that you and Brother Wang are running around, only I seem to be nothing, Lan Jun feels ashamed." Lan Jun said.
"Moreover, if I hadn't been accidentally caught by thieves, I wouldn't have put Tang Gongzi in danger." Lan Jun didn't wait for Tang Xu to open his mouth before continuing.
"What are you talking about? They were originally coming for me, but I caused you to be tortured. "Tang Xu doesn't like to shirk responsibility in everything, but it's really a headache for someone like Lan Jun to feel like a burden all the time.
"Okay, don't say it again, since you're afraid that I'm in danger, just go home and rest, don't let me worry." Tang Xu saw that Lan Jun was still not giving up, and hurriedly added.
"I want to go out of the city with Tang Gongzi." Lan Jun pursed his lips and thought for a long time, without compromise.
"Don't worry, I'm not in danger." Tang Xu said with a smile, even if there is danger, it will not be more dangerous than taking Lan Jun with him, although he does not mean to look down on Lan Jun, but two people who don't know kung fu are together, if they encounter an accident, it is still better to run faster alone.
"But..." Lan Jun saw that Tang Xu was unwilling to take him, so he was anxious, but he wanted to speak and stopped.
"And Dali will also join me outside the city, Lan Jun, you can put one hundred and twenty hearts." In order to reassure Lan Jun, Tang Xu revealed a little bit to Lan Jun about the countermeasures he had discussed with Wang Dali, but Lan Jun was not relieved after hearing this, but instead of being relieved, he tightened his brows.
"What are you worried about?" Tang Xu was very strange, could it be that there was any conspiracy in this?
"What Tang Gongzi and Brother Wang are discussing at home, in fact, I have already heard it." Lan Jun's face turned red, although he was passing by unintentionally, but after all, eavesdropping on people is not a glorious thing.
"Oh, it's okay, we're all our own people." Tang Xu said with a smile, just don't worry about keeping Lan Jun in the dark, it's hard to explain.
"It's just..." Lan Jun seemed to want to say something, but he hesitated.
"Since it's your own person, if you have anything to say, just say it." Tang Xu was suspicious, could it be that Lan Jun really heard something? Will he and Wang Dali be in trouble this time?
"It's cold now, and it's not easy for qi and blood to run. The old wound on Brother Wang's leg seems to be showing signs of recurrence, and there seems to be some blood on his leg yesterday, I'm worried. Lan Jun was a little anxious when he said this.
"I have some medicine here, and I want to give it to Brother Wang." Lan Jun grabbed the small burden on his body.
"Okay, I'll bring it to him for you." Tang Xu understood and nodded.
"I want to go with you to him." Lan Jun's face turned red again.
"It's not good, it's too dangerous." Tang Xu hurriedly stopped.
"Tang Gongzi, do you really think I'm a burden?" Lan Jun's eyes were red with grievance, and he pursed his lips and whispered.
"No, no, no! How so? I was just.. Tang Xu always listened to what others said that he couldn't see girls shed tears, he felt that Lan Jun's crying must be more lethal than girls' tears, and after hesitating, Tang Xu still agreed, but repeatedly told him to be more careful, and not to leave his sight.
"Thank you, Tang Gongzi." Lan Jun was grateful.
"You come with me, but we're going to find someone first." Tang Xu originally wanted to go out of the city to discuss with Wang Dali first, but it was even more unsafe to take Lan Jun in and out, if Lan Jun was handed over to Wang Dali, it would also hinder Wang Dali's actions to some extent, so he decided to take Lan Jun and Fat Tuo Sima out together, and it would be good to have one more person on the road to help him keep an eye on Fat Tuo Sima. He briefly told Lan Jun what he was going to do next.
"Okay." Lan Jun agreed seriously, and secretly decided that he must help Tang Xu and Wang Dali this time.
Tang Xu took Lan Jun back to the place where he hid Fat Tuo Sima, Fat Tuo Sima waited for Tang Xu to be impatient for a long time, and decided that Tang Xu threw himself down and slipped away, this will see Tang Xu come back, and he also took a person, thinking that Tang Xu had betrayed him, he was angry and anxious, and wanted to take the door out.
"Don't run, I'm going to take you out of town." Tang Xu grabbed the fat Tu Sima who wanted to run away from him, but the other party's weight was too heavy, and Tang Xu was almost taken down by him.
"Who is he?" When Fat Tuo Sima heard that he was out of the city, his steps hesitated again, but he still stared at Lan Jun intently and couldn't believe it.
"He's my friend, and we're out of town together." Tang Xu retreated in front of Lan Jun, guarding against the fat and numb.
"Okay." Fat Tuo Sima couldn't make up his mind, but Lan Jun looked timid, and he didn't look like a powerful character, and Fat Tuo Sima finally let down his guard a little.
Tang Xu didn't talk nonsense with him, beckoned them to leave immediately, and asked Lan Jun to follow him closely, not to get too close to Fat Desima. After the group of three people went out, they didn't go far before they returned to the city gate. Tang Xu's heart tightened, now is the time to change guards, one of the new people looks familiar, I don't know if the other party recognizes him. Tang Xu hurriedly asked Lan Jun and them to slow down, and Fat Tuo Sima thought that he was in trouble, and he was so anxious that he wanted to shout.
"Shut up!" Tang Xu turned his head and glared at him fiercely, probably when a person is really angry, his aura will change, and he was scolded by him like this, and he really shut his mouth obediently. Tang Xu had no time to admire himself with a sudden aura of two meters and one, and only thought about how to get out of the predicament in front of him.
"Lan Jun!" Tang Xu thought about it, and when he turned around, he found that Lan Jun was walking straight towards the city gate, and it was too late for Tang Xu to stop it, otherwise he would rush directly to the eyes of the soldiers guarding the city. I had to take the fat and pretend to follow slowly.
"What do you guys do?" It was a fresh face that came out to stop them, and Tang Xu was a little relieved.
"Master Jun, why are there so many people here all of a sudden?" Tang Xu walked around to the front of Lan Jun in two steps and talked to the man.
"The entire city of Lanzhou is under martial law, don't you know? What are you going to do? The soldier glanced at them.
"Ahh What happened to him? Before Tang Xu could figure out how to answer, the soldier himself pointed behind Tang Xu and shouted.
"Lan Jun?!" As soon as Tang Xu turned around, he saw Lan Jun lying on the ground with a pale face, and hurriedly went over to help him, and Fat Tuo Sima was so frightened by this sudden change that he stood still and didn't dare to move.
"Young Master. I'm sick. I'm afraid it won't work. Lan Jun had tears in his eyes, as thin as a gossamer.
"What's wrong with him? So serious? The soldier also stepped forward to check.
"Ahem. Pulmonary tuberculosis.. Ahem. Lan Jun suddenly began to cough non-stop, and his whole body trembled.
"This... This... Is it contagious? When the soldier heard the word lung disease, he stepped back in panic as if the soles of his feet had been pricked by needles.
"Count. Never mind! Hurry up and get out of the way! The soldier was afraid to look at Lan Jun more, so he hurriedly hid to the side and made way for the three of them. At this time, other soldiers came to inquire, and when they heard that they had an infectious disease, they did not dare to move forward.
"Thank you. Master Jun. Although Tang Xu felt extremely strange about Lan Jun's sudden lung disease, he didn't have time to think about it, he asked Fat Tuo Sima to pick up Lan Jun and hurry out of the city.
"I don't want it! He's sick! "Although the fat is not very sharp in Chinese, he also knows the severity of lung disease, and now Tang Xu wants to carry it himself, and he is not willing to kill him."
"Less nonsense, don't get out of here!" The few soldiers who came around saw Fat Tuo Sima's reaction, and they were even more convinced of the fact that Lan Jun was suffering from a serious infectious disease, and regardless of whether anyone came to carry it, they urged them to get out of the city quickly. Tang Xu didn't have time to theorize with Fat Takesima, so he had to grit his teeth and carry Lan Jun on his back, but fortunately, Lan Jun was already thin and weak, and he could still afford this road from the city gate.
"Tang Gongzi, let me down." Tang Xu carried Lan Jun out of the two miles in one go, and Lan Jun stopped his weak gasp.
"Lan Jun, are you okay?" Tang Xu also suspected that Lan Jun was pretending to be sick along the way, but he was too similar to it, he was not sure.
"It's okay, we're out." Lan Jun got off Tang Xu's back and smiled embarrassedly.
"You kid! It's so well acted, it scares me to death. Tang Xu was relieved to see that he was fine, but this acting skill was really praised, and the world owed him an Oscar.
"Tang Gongzi made fun of me, and I had no choice but to do it." Lan Jun was a little embarrassed by the praise.
"He's not sick? You Han people are like foxes. Fat Tuo Sima also understood, it turned out to be pretending, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed that he was greedy for life and afraid of death just now, not like a warrior.
"Let's find a place to rest first." When Tang Xu went out of the city, the first important thing was to find Wang Dali quickly to discuss the next plan, and now that it was getting dark, if he went further, he was afraid that he would encounter trouble.
"No, take the tea." Fat and a little impatient.
"Wait for me." Tang Xu felt that this person was so anxious, he must have some bad ideas, but when he quarreled with him at this time, he and Lan Jun were only afraid that they were not his opponents. Tang Xu asked him to sit on the side and rest, and he took Lan Jun to find dry trees, vines, hay and thicker branches, and made a simple torch. Huo Fold, Tang Xu saw it in Liujia Village, and he did it himself, but it was not as good as the high-end goods he bought in Lanzhou City later.
"Let's go." Tang Xu held the torch and took Lan Jun and Fat Tuo Sima to continue walking, the homemade torch has a small light and a short burning time, but now it is so dark that he can't see his five fingers, if Wang Dali is nearby, he will definitely be able to see it when he raises his eyes.
The three of them walked west for another quarter of an hour or so, and suddenly saw some faint fire in front of them, Tang Xu subconsciously slowed down, Lan Jun also slowed down, but the fat Sima became extremely silent, and looked left and right from time to time.
