Chapter Twenty-Three: Collecting Medicine Outside the City
Before Chuan Bao left, he threw the jade seal in his arms in front of Qin Wei and Bai Yu, "This thing is very important, it is inconvenient to bring it with me, please take care of Brother Qin and Brother Bai, Miss Xiaoxiao wait for me!" Then he followed Xiaoxiao without looking back and hurriedly ran out of the grass shed.
"Outside is besieged by rebels, how do you get out!" Bai Yu saw that the two of them were in a hurry, and hurriedly chased out of the grass hut, but these words were covered by the sound of heavy rain, but it was the county lord of Ningshu who walked in.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that the two of them were anxious, Lord Ning Shu asked
Seeing that it was the county lord, Bai Yu hurriedly handed the jade seal in his hand to Qin Wei, and arched his hand and said, "Just now Xiaoxiao girl said that there is no medicine in her bag, and she wants to go out of the city to pick it, and the people are in a hurry, but now this Suiyang is surrounded by rebels like an iron bucket, and she doesn't know where she is going, so she is about to chase it out and ask."
"Going out to collect medicine?" When the county lord heard this, his brows were also tightened, and he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said to the two, "When I was on the hillside outside the city just now, I heard Xiaoxiao say that there are a lot of herbs around the hillside to stop bleeding and heal wounds, and she has returned there."
Bai Yu and Qin Wei didn't feel the slightest ease when they heard this, but their faces showed surprise, and then they didn't care about the Ningshu County Lord's obstruction, and rushed into the rain, Qin Wei only felt that the rain outside was cold to the bone, and there was a sudden sharp pain in the back, and he just started to run a few steps, his legs couldn't exert his strength, and he fell to the ground with a pop, Bai Yu saw this, and hurriedly turned around and wanted to help Qin Wei up, but Qin Wei violently pushed his arm away
"Brother Bai doesn't care about me, go and chase them back! Fast! Bai Yu also knew that the situation was urgent, but he saw that the county lord of Ningshu also ran out of the grass hut with the two, and said to Bai Yu: "Go quickly, I will take care of him!" As he spoke, he tried to help Qin Wei up.
Seeing this, Bai Yu didn't say much, and immediately performed light skills, regardless of the pain around his body, he was busy performing light skills, and chased towards the west of the city where Xiao Xiaochuan Bao left. Qin Wei struggled to get up with Ning Shu's support, but felt that his body was extremely heavy, Ning Shu finally couldn't hold on, and fell heavily to the ground with Qin Wei, and the jade seal of the country also slipped from Qin Wei's chest because of this fall, and fell heavily on the ground full of stagnant water.
Qin Wei found that the jade seal fell out, and was busy picking it up, but he straightened his arm but couldn't reach it, Ning Shu saw this, and hurriedly helped Qin Wei pick up this thing, and looked at it in his hand, "How can you have a big seal here, it looks like my father's", Qin Wei heard this, and hurriedly asked: "Does the county lord recognize this thing?" Ning Shu continued: "Yes, I used to play with my father's official seal" Unexpectedly, as soon as Ning Shu opened his mouth to say a few words, his expression changed, and sadness welled up in his heart, and his thin eyebrows wrinkled slightly for a while, his eyes were full of water, and tears slipped quietly with the cold rain.
Seeing this, Qin Wei knew that it was the county lord who remembered the Taishou who Yu Hang had died, and he apologized in his heart, so he immediately took the jade seal, put it back in his arms, endured the severe pain around his body, struggled crookedly to get up, and helped the county lord of Ningshu, who was stunned in place, to the grass hut.
……
"Miss Xiaoxiao, it should be safer to go out of the city here, but it is still very dangerous" Chuan Bao Xiaoxiao did not shelter from the wind and rain, and was standing on the wall of the west city, Xiaoxiao opened her eyes wide, staring at the hillside covered by the rain in the distance, that is the direction they came, from here, the number of rebels stationed on the way is obviously much sparser than elsewhere, it should be because the Chinese army was damaged, and the rebels gathered the soldiers on the right flank. It should be the most suitable place to go out of the city, so he said: "Just here, don't you say that you are good at light work?" Take me out! ”
Seeing that Xiaoxiao had made up his mind, Chuan Bao knew that it was useless to say more, so he immediately wiped the rain off his face, stretched out his right hand and said with a solemn face, "Girl, hold on to me, take the girl to rush over in the next place" Xiaoxiao heard this, and didn't care about the difference between men and women, and hugged Chuan Bao's arm tightly, "Let's go!" ”
Chuan Bao immediately lucked his internal strength, because of the fact that Tai Qingzi had just healed his injuries, Chuan Bao only felt that his whole body was full of internal strength, and his legs were immediately lucky, and he was about to jump up, but he heard a sound of breaking through the air and flying away behind him, but it was Bai Yu who endured the severe pain around his body and rushed over with all his might.
"Brother Yan, wait!" Bai Yu found that the two of them were at the head of the city, busy in mid-air, and fell heavily on Chuan Bao Xiaoxiao's side, but his chest was shaken, and the internal injuries of the battle outside the city seemed to have not fully recovered. Bai Yu struggled to get up, but the pain around him hit him, and he couldn't help but turn pale. Immediately, he couldn't care about this, and hurriedly got up and blocked in front of Chuan Bao Xiaoxiao.
"Brother Bai be careful!" Seeing Bai Yu like this, Chuan Bao also knew that his injuries were not light, and he was about to explain, but he heard Xiaoxiao on the side speak
"Get out of the way, there are so many people in the city waiting for medicine!"
"Miss Xiaoxiao! There are so many thieves stationed outside the city, and it is better to discuss with General Yan and Brother Qin first, and think of a foolproof plan, and then"
"Discuss what! Those people are now anxiously waiting for me to save them, get out of the way, or I'll prick you with a needle!" Xiaoxiao frowned, the cold rain flowed down her hair, and for a while she felt cold and biting, her body couldn't help but shiver again, and she couldn't help but report the arm in her arms tighter, looking extremely pitiful, but looking at Bai Yu's eyes was still extremely firm.
How could Chuan Bao not feel Xiaoxiao's trembling, but now that the rainstorm is pouring down, there is nothing to cover around, so he has to secretly use his internal strength, and for a while, his right arm gradually became hot. Chuan Bao saw that Xiaoxiao's delicate body was no longer trembling, so he was relieved, looked at Bai Yu and said: "Brother Bai, don't worry, this trip is mainly to collect medicine, the team of people and horses out of the city is easy to be discovered, I am now healed from internal injuries, Taiqingzi's predecessors have filled me with internal strength, I want me to protect her and sneak out of the city, avoid the eyes and ears of the rebels, and pick some herbs, it shouldn't be a problem, Brother Bai is in the city and waits for us to come back."
When Bai Yu heard this, he also knew his injury, so he could only add to the burden, so he had to sigh, "Brother Yan be careful, Miss Xiaoxiao will entrust it to you"
"Don't worry, wait for us to come back" Chuan Bao finished speaking, then gathered internal force, drank lightly, and was like a swimming dragon, carrying Xiaoxiao from the high city wall jumped up, took a few steps in the air, and secretly said in the air: "Hold me tight" and then protect Xiaoxiao in front of his chest, the internal force was retracted, the two seemed to have jumped out of a few zhang away, Xiaoxiao only felt the wind and rain whistling in his ears, and the raindrops of beans hit his body faintly painful, so he had to hug the hot Chuanbao tightly, for a while, the whole world seemed to be warm, and the cold rain between heaven and earth raged, and the wind was cold.
Bai Yu saw that the rainstorm was like a curtain, covering the figures of the two people, and he couldn't see it really, so he sighed and couldn't help clenching his fists, and several wounds around his body seemed to ooze a trace of blood, and the rain stained the white clothes, but Bai Yu didn't notice it, and said abruptly, "Bai Yu, how can you be so useless, how can you be so, I hope Brother Yan Xiaoxiao can return safely." And so, he stood at the head of the city for a long time.
Chuan Bao hugged Xiaoxiao, after jumping out of the air for a few zhang, the strength of the foot was slowly unloaded, and there was nothing to borrow in mid-air, so he had to adjust his body shape and go straight to the ground, and then jumped forward a few zhang with the force, after a few jumps, because he was carrying a person, Chuan Bao also felt that the internal force was somewhat consumed, but he was distracted, and the eyes were blown into the foreign body, Chuan Bao was in pain, his body shook, and he fell straight to the ground, seeing that he was going to fall to the ground heavily, Chuan Bao hurriedly adjusted his body shape with intuition, and he was able to re-transport the internal force before landing and stabilize the next plate, The two didn't fall, Xiaoxiao looked up, not far ahead was the rebel camp, immediately rejoiced, did not fall into the rebel camp, Chuan Bao and Xiaoxiao immediately lay on the cold and muddy grass, with the help of low bushes to cover their figures, Chuan Bao easily picked out the foreign object in his eyes, and looked at it, it was a delicate leaf that was rolled into the air, such a small thing almost hurt the two of them to death, and they were also very speechless, so they showed this thing to Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao, who originally had a sad face, couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw this thing, Whispered, "I didn't expect the majestic Yan Daxia, who was almost defeated by a leaf, tsk" Hearing this, Chuan Bao couldn't help but smile bitterly, and looked at the front barracks, and saw that there was not a single sentry in the camp, and immediately couldn't figure it out, Chuan Bao saw that there were several tall arrow towers in another camp not far away, and a few archers looked around, and also dispelled the idea of jumping over with light skills. If it was him, he would have gone straight through, but the two of them couldn't be so reckless at all, once Xiaoxiao made a mistake, not only himself, but also the wounded soldiers in the city would have to worry about their lives, and he would never forgive himself. After many scrutinies, he immediately suppressed the urge to rush over, and said to Xiaoxiao on the side: "Little girl, this thief camp seems to be negligent in defense, the surroundings are dark at the moment, and the rain is so heavy, it is estimated that the sentry agents are hiding in the tent, they should not find us, we might as well go through this military camp carefully, we should not be discovered."
The two immediately agreed on the idea, cautiously and lightly moved to the rebel camp, the camp is really empty, it turned out that this is the camp where the Xi people are stationed, a few days to attack the city, the Xi barbarians have already decided that the Tang soldiers will not take the initiative to attack, after each siege, they are extremely tired, back to the camp most of them fall asleep, regardless of others, Yin Ziqi was also very angry about this matter, but these barbarian soldiers had no choice but to deploy other guards to act as sentry agents of this battalion, at this time the heavy rain was pouring down, plus the Chinese army was damaged, No one has long been assigned to spy on this, and the barracks is no longer guarded.
Hearing the snoring sound in the camp tent like thunder, not even the sound of human speech, Chuan Bao made up his mind, and carefully passed through the military camp along the military tent, occasionally one or two barbarians who came out to relieve their hands were also quietly cut by Chuan Bao's throat and died.
The two were moving, suddenly, heard a debris in a tent not far away from the sound of broken debris, and then, a young man carrying a scimitar rushed out of it, followed by a few barbarians, Chuan Bao probed to look, only to see the young man carrying a knife went straight to the direction of the camp where the two of them were hiding, immediately thought that his whereabouts were discovered, the secret road was not good, busy with internal force, listening to the footsteps approaching, thinking that the first strike is strong, he is ready to jump out at any time to slap this son to death, but he also knows that at this time, They will also be discovered by the brutes behind and expose their whereabouts. Once the battle starts, it is very likely to fall into a heavy siege, and then it is really more auspicious. Xiaoxiao also knew that the situation was wrong, and pinched the three silver needles with her fingertips, although she also knew that with her three-legged cat's fists and feet, I was afraid that it would not make a big difference, but the situation was urgent, and she couldn't care about it so much.
The young man's footsteps were gradually approaching, and Chuan Bao was about to jump out, when he suddenly heard a thick voice scolding the young man not far away, and the young man's feet stopped, and the two of them heard the scolding, and their hearts were shocked, "Xi people? ”
You must know that the Xi people belong to the northern nomadic people, and the soldiers are all extremely brave, if they are discovered, the possibility of the two breaking through is almost zero.
The voice scolded the young man a few words, and the young man also refuted a few times, but was caught up by the barbarians who came behind him, and carried it tightly, letting the young man struggle and kick and kick and ignore it, seeing that the attention of all the barbarians was on the young man, Chuan Bao and Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to move cautiously towards the camp tent in front of them, Chuan Bao cautiously looked at it, and then realized that outside the big tent in the middle of the barracks, there was a big man with a tiger's back and a rough and stern face, and he was shouting at the young man who was resisting beside him, and the young man seemed to have cried, He was then carried into the tent.
Chuan Bao looked at it carefully, and saw that this Han had complicated armor and was dressed in fur, and guessed that this person should be the leader of this camp, but seeing that this person's eyes were bright, his bare arm muscles were knotted, and his voice was like a bell, he should have hard kung fu in his body, and it was not appropriate to clash head-on, so he immediately carefully hid behind the camp tent, and waited until the strong man returned to the tent, and the two finally gave a sigh.
It is also the favor of God, a distance behind, the two of them passed very smoothly, and after rushing out of the Xi military camp, Chuan Bao immediately transported the internal strength, took Xiaoxiao into the air, and took a few steps in a row, leaving the Xi military camp far behind.
After a few more jumps, the two finally came to the original hillside, the trip was still very smooth, not found by the rebels, the two looked around, saw that the surrounding was washed by the rain, the grass and trees were dumped to the ground, Xiaoxiao frowned, immediately took out a delicate medicine hoe from his body, looked at the grass slightly, and then crouched on the ground and began to dig up one of the herbs. Seeing that there was no danger around, Chuan Bao took off his coat and carefully wrapped the herbs that Xiaoxiao dug up in his clothes.
The rainstorm is like a note, half a day has passed, the sky is still rolling ink clouds, I don't know when it will fall, Xiaoxiao at this time does not care about the wind on the hillside, let the raindrops the size of beans like a long whip, whipped on her thin body, just look down and look for the herbs seriously, calculating the weight little by little, this hillside is smaller after all, after a few teas, the herbs picked are just enough for a hundred people, seeing that there is no herb in the field of vision, Xiaoxiao wiped the rain on his face, and said to Chuan Bao on the side
"Wrap these herbs carefully, let's go back"
When Chuan Bao heard this, he carefully tied up the clothes filled with herbs, tied them behind him like a burden, and took Xiaoxiao into his arms and was about to take off into the air, but Xiaoxiao suddenly shouted, "Wait!" Look there! ”
Chuan Bao followed Xiaoxiao's gaze, and his brows suddenly tightened.
If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next time
