Chapter 32: A Gamble (Part I)

Zhang Cheng was cautious all the way, turned around a few times on the road, and made sure that no one was following, so he turned into the path with confidence and went straight to Qishan.

The mountain is not high, but the forest is luxuriant.

The mountain forest after the rain, the air is fresh.

Zhang Cheng carried a bag on his back and walked along the rugged mountain road in the forest, walking for about half an hour, and suddenly stopped.

"It's me!"

He sighed under his breath.

Immediately after, two young men jumped down from the tree in front of him, and quickly stepped forward to bow his hand to Zhang Chengyi, "Eldest son, you are back." ”

"How's Xiaochao?"

"The super young master is still in a coma, his body is hot and cold, and he looks a little bad."

Zhang Cheng's face changed greatly, and he threw the bag on his body to the young man, "There is salt and coarse millet in it, and I will boil some meat porridge and send it over in a while." ”

"Whoa!"

Zhang Cheng walked briskly into the forest, and after a while, he saw a low grass hut.

This grass hut was originally used by the mountain guards, but now that the war has caused the mountain guards to become irrelevant, this grass hut has been abandoned.

Outside the hut, there were two extinguished bonfires.

When more than a dozen young people saw Zhang Cheng coming, they hurriedly got up and saluted.

Zhang Cheng nodded and walked quickly into the grass shed.

He took out two pairs of medicines from his bosom and asked the young man who followed him to take them out and boil them, and then nodded to the young man in the shed, walked to the couch and squatted down. On the couch, a young man lay motionless, with his eyes closed and his face so red as if he were on fire.

"Xiao Chao, Xiao Chao!"

But the young man did not answer.

Zhang Cheng slowly untied the young man's clothes, and saw that there was a knife wound between his chest and abdomen, which was particularly eye-catching.

Since there was no medication, the wound showed signs of festering and emitted a foul smell.

Zhang Cheng's eyes turned red all of a sudden, he took a deep breath, turned around and said, "Go and boil some water." ”

"Whoa!"

Wet the wet cloth with the water in the wooden basin next to the couch, and then carefully wipe the young man's wound.

"Brother, you're back......"

The young man suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Zhang Cheng and said in a low voice.

Zhang Cheng suddenly showed a look of surprise, and hurriedly raised the young man's head, "Xiaochao, are you awake...... It's okay, my brother has already found the golden medicine, and I will apply it to you in a while. In two days, when you're well, we'll leave here. I heard that Langya County is quite good now, and Liu Bei's forces can't control Langya County, so when we get there, it's safe. ”

"Brother, I'm fine!"

"I know, I know...... But you're still weak, so recuperate first.

This is hundreds of miles away from Langya, and you have to pass through several counties along the way. If you don't recover completely, I'm afraid you won't be able to survive Langya. You just take care of your life and recuperate, and I'll take care of the rest. Rest assured, it's safe for the time being, and the officers and soldiers have stopped the clearance. ”

Zhang Chao was groggy and fell asleep again.

Zhang Cheng smeared the golden medicine on Zhang Chao's wound, but there was a look of worry on his face. He stood up and wandered in the grass hut, then sat down next to Zhang Chao and put his hand on Zhang Chao's forehead. It's still hot, and it's a nuisance.

More than a month ago, Que Ba Zhang Min sneaked into Qu County.

As a result, Liu Bei made an invitation to enter the urn, and the Yushan thieves were annihilated. Que Ba Zhang Min died in battle, and Que Li actually died at the hands of Zhang Cheng. But in the chaos of the time, no one was aware of this. Even if someone sees it, it is the death of the dead, the captive of the captive. Who cares about the life or death of a second ancestor. In contrast, Zhang Cheng's reputation is much higher than that of Que Li.

On that day, Zhang Cheng sensed that something was wrong, and escaped from Qu County with Zhang Chao and a group of men.

Subsequently, the two brothers gathered a group of stragglers in Shilipo, originally planning to escape from Qu County, not wanting to show the speed of the soldiers, and the Bai Wei soldiers defeated the Yushan bandits in Shilipo in one fell swoop with the assistance of the temporarily recruited homeless. Zhang Chao was seriously injured in the chaotic battle, and was rescued desperately by Zhang Cheng and a group of henchmen to fight his way out of the encirclement. After that, these people hid in the mountains and forests of Qishan Mountain, and did not dare to show their faces lightly.

However, Zhang Chao's injuries became more and more severe.

Not to mention the lack of food and clothing, more importantly, I can't find Jinchuang medicine for treatment.

Zhang Cheng had no choice but to pretend to be a homeless person and beg outside the city. During this time, the number of displaced people in Qu County increased day by day, so Zhang Cheng disguised himself as a homeless person, and no one saw his true identity. I didn't want to meet Liu Chuang today, and Liu Chuang saw through his identity at a glance.

Zhang Cheng wanted to die at that time, but he didn't know that Liu Chuang didn't kill him, but gave him money and let him leave.

At first, Zhang Cheng was furious.

In his opinion, Liu Chuang is nakedly humiliating him.

But then he calmed down and used the money Liu Chuang gave him to buy some Jinchuang medicine, as well as salt and food. Staying in the mountains and forests every day, there is no shortage of meat. But after not eating salt for more than a month, everyone felt tired. If you continue, you're going to be in trouble! He is no longer the steward of the Elk Family Horse Farm, and if he wants to leave Qu County, in addition to the necessary living materials, he also needs to have enough money. A penny is hard to beat a hero! Zhang Cheng is currently facing this situation, so he can only grit his teeth and swallow his anger.

Outside the grass shed, there was a smell of meat.

Zhang Cheng walked out of it, still with a worried look on his face.

Zhang Chao's injury can no longer be delayed...... Otherwise, it's a dead end.

Although he bought Jinchuang Medicine, he also understood that Zhang Chao's injury had passed the best treatment period, and the effect of Jinchuang Medicine was minimal. There must be a doctor to diagnose and treat Zhang Chao, but at this time, where can I find a suitable doctor?

There are many barefoot men in ten miles and eight towns, but they dare not act rashly.

In the medical hall in Qu County, Zhang Cheng did not dare to provoke, otherwise it would likely provoke the encirclement and suppression of the Qu County patrol.

In addition, the servants of the elk family have returned to Qu County, which has greatly increased the strength of Qu County. If you make trouble again at this time, everyone will be finished.

Is it possible to abandon Zhang Chao?

As soon as Zhang Cheng's thought appeared in his mind, he immediately drove this thought out.

's father died, and there was only one relative in this world, Zhang Chao. If he dies too, what's the fun of me living alone in the world?

"Eldest Prince, let's have something to eat...... Today's meal is so delicious! ”

A feather mountain thief came over with a bowl of meat porridge, and a smell of meat came to his face. The meat porridge with salt is really different. Zhang Cheng ate a bowl and another bowl to wake up Zhang Chao, but Zhang Chao was groggy, and the heat on his body did not subside at all.

"Eldest son, if the super young master continues like this, I'm afraid it's dangerous."

"What can you do?"

The thief said softly: "The super young master is like this, and he must find a gentleman for treatment."

Although there is a golden medicine, it is already too late, and the current situation of the super young master is no longer something that ordinary golden medicine can cure. I've heard people say that Mr. Zhang from Shennongtang in Qu County has good medical skills, so why don't we sneak into the county town and tie Mr. Zhang over, how about it? ”

"Li Lun, don't you want to?"

Zhang Cheng sighed with a bitter expression.

"Now the people of Qu County regard you and me as beasts of a flood, it's good that we don't show up, as long as we appear, we will inevitably be besieged.

Mr. Zhang is a good doctor, of course I know. However, Mr. Zhang is highly respected and has a good reputation in Qu County. If we kid him up, it won't take a few hours, and Huang Ge Lao'er will definitely send troops to chase us all and wipe us out. I think that Huang Ge will be happy to use our head to pave the way for his future. Not only Mr. Zhang couldn't move, but also gentlemen in other places couldn't move. ”

Li Lun, less than 170 cm tall, short and fat, quite stocky.

The complexion is dark, and the appearance is loyal.

There was a look of confusion between his eyebrows, and he couldn't help but say, "Isn't it possible to watch the super young master die?" ”

Li Lun and Zhang Chao have a good relationship, so they are also the most anxious.

Zhang Cheng was silent...... He hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Guess who I met today?" ”

"Who?"

"Liu Chuang!"

Li Lun's face changed, he stood up and stared at Zhang Cheng, "He didn't recognize the eldest prince?" ”

Zhang Cheng smiled bitterly, "Why didn't you recognize it?" This guy's eyesight is amazing, I pretended to be a beggar, and he still recognized my identity. But strange to say, after he caught up with me, he only warned me to let me leave Qu County, and did not kill me or embarrass me. ”

"Childe means ......"

Zhang Cheng pondered for a long time, raised his head and said, "I don't think Liu Chuang is hostile to me. ”

"How is that possible...... The prince embarrassed him repeatedly and wanted to kill him. This time, we besieged Qu County, and to put it bluntly, it was also because of him. If it weren't for the prince's insistence on going his own way, exposing our secrets and angering Lu Zhu, how could Liu Bei use troops against us?

In the final analysis, the root of this matter lies in Liu Chuang's house, in my opinion, the reason why he did this is probably ill-intentioned. ”

"Then you say, what does he want from us?"

Li Lun blurted out without thinking: "It must be to get our head on the road, so as to pave the way for his future......"

It's just that the more you say this, the quieter it becomes.

Although they hid in Tibet and were as panicked as lost dogs, they also inquired a lot about what happened in Qu County. Liu Chuang was attacked by Liu Bei's men and was seriously injured; Later, Liu Chuang's master and Zhang Fei clashed, and they didn't know whether they won or lost. In the end, Liu Chuang and Huang Ge, the Elk family and Liu Bei's people turned their faces, and even the Qu County patrol at that time also dispersed, almost causing trouble.

Who is most interested in their heads?

Yellow leather and elk family!

To be honest, Liu Bei may not have put their heads in his eyes, the Yushan thieves are powerful on the surface, but in Liu Bei's eyes, they are not worth mentioning at all. Liu Chuang's family turned their faces with Liu Bei and Huang Ge, which was equivalent to severing their future. At this time, Zhang Cheng's head is insignificant at all, how can Liu Chuang care about this? If it's not for the future, then what is he Liu Chuang for?

Li Lun didn't know how to speak, so he simply closed his mouth and sat on the ground.
