Chapter 59: The Ghost Lingers (7)
After a while, several corpses surfaced, and the river was stained red with blood. The Dharma Protector stood on top of the big boat, looked at the corpses and frowned, and said coldly: "Count you smart and know how to choose such a way to die, hmph, let's turn around, even if we cut off the river, we have to find out Baoding!" ”
Zhang Wei and the others hid in the cabin for a while, and waited until it was quiet outside, and then they covered the mouth and nose of the unconscious, sneaked out of the water, and sent the personnel to the shore one by one.
Fortunately, the distance between the river bank was not far, and several people tossed for half an hour, and finally placed everyone on the river bank.
Zhang Wei twisted his wet clothes, sat on the shore panting, watching the boat sink slowly, and said that if the hole on the side of the ship was opened a little bigger or more deviated, I was afraid that the ship would sink immediately, and no one would be able to escape.
Steward Zhao sat down next to Zhang Wei, patted him on the shoulder, and said approvingly: "I said a long time ago that you are both wise and brave!" Sure enough, it didn't let me look away, if the Zhao family has a husband like you..."
Zhang Weixin said: You Zhao family's eldest lady doesn't have a word of truth in her mouth, and you are merciful everywhere, I don't dare to ask for hardship.
He interrupted, "What about Qin'er and Miss Zhao?" What are you doing over there? ”
As soon as the words fell, I heard Qin'er shouting anxiously: "Gongzi Zhang, Steward Zhao, come here, Sister Zhao is drowning!" ”
Steward Zhao came to Zhao Yudan's side with ups and downs, only to see that the latter was pale and dying.
Steward Zhao used his fighting qi to enter Zhao Yudan's body, but he didn't know that the latter didn't get any better, and he couldn't help but turn around in a hurry.
Zhang Wei patted Steward Zhao's shoulder and comforted: "It shouldn't be a difficult thing, I'll try it!" The latter immediately showed a smile on his face, and hurriedly said: "Brother Zhang is willing to come to the rescue, Miss can live, great!" ”
Zhang Wei opened Zhao Yudan's red lips with his hands, folded his hands on her chest, and the clothes soaked by the river were tightly attached to her body, making her figure even more concave and convex, especially the tall twin peaks, so that Zhang Wei couldn't help but feel blood and qi surge, he didn't dare to look at it anymore, he took a few deep breaths, pressed up and down rhythmically above Zhao Yudan's heart a few times, and then began to perform artificial respiration mouth to mouth.
When Qin'er saw Zhang Wei suddenly kissing Zhao Yudan, she couldn't help but be ashamed and anxious, so angry that she stomped her feet and turned her back.
Steward Zhao showed surprising trust in Zhang Wei's desperate situation several times, and let Zhang Wei do it, and did not stop it, he just watched with a concerned face.
Zhang Wei repeated the artificial respiration several times, only to hear Zhao Yudan take a deep breath, turn around, and then start coughing violently. Steward Zhao hurriedly squatted down to help pat his back, and was courteous.
Zhang Wei straightened his waist, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said with a smile: "It's okay if you can breathe, she has been drowning for a short time, it's not a big deal, just rest for a while!" ”
Qin'er saw that Zhang Wei was really saving people, and she was embarrassed, and couldn't help complaining that she thought of Zhang Wei, a humble gentleman, but fortunately Zhang Wei was busy saving people and didn't notice the change in her face, otherwise it would be even more embarrassing.
Zhao Yudan coughed for a while, spit out a little river water, her face turned a little ruddy, she blocked the dazzling sunlight with her hand, and asked weakly: "Where is this?" Are we saved? ”
Steward Zhao said with a happy face: "Miss, we are on the riverbank, the people of the True Heaven Sect are gone, we are saved!" ”
Zhao Yudan nodded lightly and said, "How did we escape, I only remember that the boat sank suddenly, I fell into the water, and then I don't remember anything." ”
Steward Zhao said: "Thanks to Brother Zhang who came up with such a plan, he was deceived by the True Heaven Sect, otherwise the lives of our boatload of people would not be guaranteed!" ”
Zhao Yudan looked at Steward Zhao in surprise, and said in a trembling voice: "Are the big guys still alive?" What about the enchanting ones? ”
Steward Zhao smiled and comforted: "They are all safe and sound, only Miss you choked a few mouthfuls of water, fortunately, Brother Zhang will pass on qi by mouth, so you can be rescued Miss!" He didn't know what method Zhang Wei used, but he saw that the way was weird, so he casually made up such a name.
Zhao Yudan smiled at Zhang Wei gratefully, and said softly: "Don't thank you for your kindness, Zhang Gongzi's kindness, the concubine will definitely repay you!" ”
Zhang Wei scratched his head embarrassedly and said: "This is all as it should be, if anyone drowns, I will save it, not to mention that Miss Zhao is my good friend, and it is incumbent on me!" He hugged his fist to Zhao Yudan, and then whispered to Steward Zhao: "That's called artificial respiration, not what kind of oral qi transmission technique!" ”
Steward Zhao snorted and said, "It's all about the same, it's almost, haha!" ”
Qin'er walked over and choked up: "It's okay if my sister is fine, I was scared to death just now!" I thought I killed my sister! As he spoke, he threw himself to Zhao Yudan's side and cried.
Zhao Yudan couldn't help but be greatly moved when he saw Qin'er's sincerity, and said with a smile: "What killed me, if you hadn't dragged me ashore, I'm afraid that Zhang Gongzi's verbal qi transmission technique would not be useful!" You are my savior! As he spoke, he gently stroked Qin'er's long hair with his hand.
When Qin'er heard Zhao Yudan say this, she cried even more sadly, obviously blaming herself for failing to take care of Zhao Yudan.
Zhao Yudan and Qin'er, the two beauties, sat hugging each other, and under the sunlight, the white skin reflected a faint halo, which made Zhang Wei stunned, only to feel as if he was no longer in the world, but in a fairyland.
Seeing that Zhang Wei was in a daze, Steward Zhao hurriedly touched him with his elbow and reminded, "What about the people on this riverbank?" If their power has not yet worn off, when they wake up, will we not have another hard fight? ”
Zhang Wei woke up from a dream and said: "Yes, what Steward Zhao said is that we should find a place to settle down at the moment, and we will mark them along the way, if they recover their senses, they will naturally follow the mark to meet us!" ”
Steward Zhao thought for a while and said, "There is really no other way, so we have to do it, but our mark must be left in a place that is convenient for us to monitor, otherwise if we let the enemy follow the trail, it will be very bad!" ”
After the two finished their discussion, they set off immediately, and before leaving, Zhang Wei still did not forget to carry Xiao Ming behind him.
A group of five people rushed to dusk and arrived at Diannong. Diannong is a small town under the rule of Nanyang County, although it is adjacent to Nanyang City, it is sparsely populated, and there is only one inn in the whole town. In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, everyone turned to an old couple's house.
When the old couple saw these five people, they were very enthusiastic and eagerly invited everyone to the house and served food. Although it is not a delicacy from the mountains and seas, everyone has been running around for a day, and they are already hungry, and they eat very sweetly.
Steward Zhao patted his round belly, and said to the old couple: "Thank you two for taking you in, there is nothing to repay in the future, there is a little silver here and I hope to smile!" As he spoke, he reached out to touch the money bag, and then his face changed: his waist was empty, where was there any trace of the money bag?
Zhao Yudan knowingly took out a pair of milky white jade bracelets from his bag, put them in front of the old couple, and said: "This pair of mutton fat jade bracelets is the best in Hetian jade. ”
Zhang Wei saw that this pair of jade bracelets was warm and dense, transparent and pure, white and flawless, like clotted fat, not only admired in his heart: if this pair of bracelets is brought back to modern times, I am afraid that it will be worth millions if I say the least. He thought about it again, this is a genuine Han Dynasty antique, but I am afraid that there are tens of millions worth of it!
He swept his eyes and suddenly noticed the bag that Zhao Yudan was carrying, which seemed to contain a lot of treasures, no wonder she was the only one drowning among everyone. He doesn't like women who worship money, because he despises Zhao Yudan a little, but he has a good impression of Qin'er, who has always been by his side.
The old couple was simple, and hurriedly pushed the jade bracelet back into Zhao Yudan's hands, and the old man said angrily: "We just saw that you were tired from the journey, so we left you for the night, not for your money." If so, don't you think we're money-hungry snobs? If you don't say this, you can stay as long as you like, but if you give it away, then you should go to another household! After speaking, he turned his head and said nothing.
The old lady hammered the old man's back, and then said to Zhao Yudan with a smile: "This pair of bracelets is a first-class treasure, then it is better to return to the girl's hands, we have no children and no daughters, and we are about to die, we can't use it, so you will take this as a dowry, as a heart for the two of us!" ”
Zhao Yudan saw that the second elder was resolute and did not insist, so he put the bracelet in his bag casually, and said with a smile: "Then it will bother the second elder!" ”
When the old man saw Zhao Yudan take back the bracelet, he turned his head and continued to eat with a smile.
That night, the old couple gave up the east and west wings to Qin'er, Zhang Wei and Zhao Yudan, Zhao Steward and Xiao Ming. Zhao Yudan knew Zhang Wei's intentions for Qin'er, so he didn't break it, and before Qin'er could say anything against it, he thanked the second elder with a smile and gave Qin'er a look, and then went back to the room by himself.
Steward Zhao called Zhang Wei aside, and said with a wicked smile: "Now is a God-given opportunity, as the saying goes, the opportunity must not be lost and never come again, Brother Zhang must take advantage of it!" ”
Zhang Wei was seen through by Steward Zhao, smiled awkwardly, and said, "This... Isn't it? ”
Steward Zhao patiently enlightened: "What's wrong? Lang is a concubine, and they are all temperamental, why bother to stick to the vulgar law? I'm on duty in the yard tonight, and I'm sure no one will make trouble! As he spoke, he squeezed his eyes at Zhang Wei again.
Zhang Wei arched his hand with a guilty face and said, "There is Lao Zhao in charge!" ”
The interior of the east wing is very simple, and there is a bed on the right hand side of the door, but there is no other furniture.
Qin'er walked into the room and stood in the hall in a worried mood, with her back to the door, her head bowed, and she didn't say a word. Zhang Wei closed the door, walked behind Qin'er gently, wrapped his arms around him, and hugged Qin'er in his arms, this was the first time he mustered up the courage to hug Qin'er, smelling the faint fragrance on her body, and his heartbeat was also violent.
Qin'er was hugged by Zhang Wei, both sweet and scared, her pretty face was crimson with shame, and her shoulders trembled with nervousness. Zhang Wei said softly: "It's not early, let's rest too, if the True Heaven Sect finds out that we are not dead, I am afraid that there will be a vicious fight in the future!" ”
Qin'er was like a frightened deer, nodding blankly, her brain was blank, she had no idea at all, she only felt that the man next to her was warm and safe, no matter what he said, she was willing to accept it.
Zhang Wei helped Qin'er to sit on the edge of the bed, looking at her pair of blue eyes, his heart rose with pity, and he gradually leaned his head over. Facing this man who made her awe and admire, Qin'er closed her eyes in fear and expectation.
