Lu Huiqing was sick, because the body soaked in fecal water all night, even in winter, the wound was still suppurated, the whole body was high fever, and the boat that had been hired had been hired, and the boatman refused to go south on the grounds that he had bumped into dirty things that should not have been bumped into, and Ayou had to take the seriously ill Lu Huiqing to live in the suburbs of Suzhou, wanting to wait for Lu Huiqing to continue to go south after he recovered from his illness.

On a cloudy evening, Lu Huiqing woke up, Mu Ran ate the gruel that Ayou fed into his mouth, he couldn't move now, and if he moved a little, the yellow pus would flow out, so he had to lie quietly on the bed, drinking gruel and trying to recall what happened that day.

It is impossible for a woman with a living color to become a mouse, this is Lu Huiqing's judgment.

As a Confucian disciple, Lu Huiqing can still do this point of respecting ghosts and gods, since he is not a fairy and a ghost, then there is only one possibility, this thing is done by people! Just who will this person be?

I don't know how long I thought about it, but when I saw Ayou coming in from outside the door, Lu Huiqing cheered up and turned over, he felt that his body was like a broken pocket, as long as he moved a little, water would bubble up everywhere.

This is the only time of the day that he can feel better, the cold snow covering his body, the chill that penetrates the bone marrow can slightly relieve the itch that can drive the living crazy.

"Ayou, let's leave Suzhou City and move to Suzhou Wharf!"

Ayou patted the snow foam on his hands, put his frozen red hand on his mouth, stomped his feet with heat, and asked carefully: "Master, it is inconvenient for you to live at Suzhou Wharf." The people living there are too mixed and chaotic, which will affect your treatment. ”

Lu Huiqing turned over again. Pressed his chest against the snow and ice, where the skin was most festering, and there was no good piece of flesh to be seen, and the red muscles were exposed like a skinned mouse.

These muscles can't be close to the ice and snow for a long time, otherwise they will get frostbitten, Lu Huiqing just wants to relieve the itching, and he doesn't plan to die yet.

"Ayo. Although the dock is chaotic, it is also the most well-informed place. We're like a blind man now, we don't know what to do, we always need to have a little source. ”

Seeing that Lu Huiqing's body had begun to tremble, Ah You wrapped him in an oilcloth. These oilcloths are coated with a layer of wax according to the master's instructions, so that they will not get on the skin and flesh, and he used the linen cloth when the master was unconscious, who would have thought that the linen cloth and the wound were stuck together, and it took a lot of effort to tear them off, and the master was also tossed to death.

Seeing that the old man had already fallen asleep, Ayou wrapped the old man in a quilt and tied it with a thin rope, and that's all. The old man will not take off the quilt in his sleep because of itching all over his body.

After arranging the master, Ayou hired an ox cart with a shed from the store and put the master and his luggage on the cart. Then he braved the heavy snow to go to Suzhou Ferry.

This year's snow came so quickly that the Suzhou ferry port was crowded with merchants who had to stay here to wait for the goods to be transported by land because of the closure of the river, as well as all kinds of people who relied on the canal to beg for food.

The most frequent visitors are not merchants, but boat owners on the canals. Two hundred miles south of Suzhou, the canal will not freeze. It was still able to sail, so countless shipowners came to Suzhou for nothing other than to solicit business, and the merchant's goods could be reloaded onto the ship after two hundred miles by land, and they could continue to go south.

The ship's owner's attire was not unusual when he was on board, but when he went ashore he wore a long robe, a green shirt, a square hat or a small satin hat, a calfskin hugging his belly, tied with a thick silver chain, and stuffed with copper coins. Wear raw cowhide boots and walk heavily. Tall, skinny. There are large hands, the hands are full of yellow hair and green tendons, and the face is also covered with rust, which is the most obvious sign of a person who begs for a living on the water.

This kind of person is good at drinking, people are also all over the world, and he is not stingy with women, and he is the most popular high-roller among courtesans in Suzhou. The sailor is strong and brave, with a sharp eyebrow, good at singing, swimming, fighting, and swearing. When he went into the water, he was like a fish, and when he came ashore to approach the woman, he was like a little boar.

Lu Huiqing's spirit was much better, and he was wrapped in a quilt and carried to the lobby of the guest house, chose a secluded place to settle the master, asked for a plate of salt beans, played a corner of turbid wine, and drank while eating beans, and accompanied the master to listen to the news from all directions.

Almost ten days had passed, and the shopkeeper had long been familiar with the habits of their master and servant, and the seats against the wall were reserved for them as usual, and they could see every corner of the hall clearly.

Two days ago, Lu Huiqing even saw a person she knew, this person was called Shen Kuo, the most pleasing thing in the world, but this person walked by when he saw that he didn't seem to see it, and saw Lu Huiqing's scarred arms, and even pouted in disgust.

Lu Huiqing, who has a strong sense of self-esteem, did not come forward to recognize him, and he also knew very well that this person was really not a good friend.

When he looked in the mirror, Lu Huiqing realized why Shen Kuo didn't know him, the person in the bronze mirror looked very strange to him, in just one month, his hair was even half white, and his face was so thin that he lost his human shape, coupled with the scarred and leprosy arms, it was strange that Shen Kuo could recognize it.

Since that day, Ayou has found that the old man has changed, becoming more depressed, and many times he doesn't say a word all day, but he is more concerned about the chaotic news outside.

"Damn, nerds know that the money in Shu is easy to make, but the people in Shu don't give Lao Tzu a bite to eat at all, they have their own boats in the water, there are elephants on the shore, and there are no elephants to carry goods with elephants, this thing is not only more resistant, the most important thing is safety, not to mention that the snakes, insects, tigers and leopards along the way heard the movement of this thing and ran away without a shadow, even the bandits in the mountains saw the elephants and only hugged their heads and scurried.

But the boat in the river is bullying, I heard that they built a kind of flat-bottomed boat in Yizhou, I heard that this kind of boat has a huge cargo capacity at a time, and it is very strong, although it can't go through the big river, but it is the most suitable to walk in the canal, and then go on like this, Lao Tzu will all have to drink the northwest wind, which is not a way to live. ”

A stout shipowner slapped his square hat on the table in exasperation and complained loudly.

The other shipowner rudely pushed away the courtesan in his arms and said irritably: "What's the use of saying this, there is General Yun standing behind the people, do you still want to compare with this master?" ”

The stout owner suddenly lost his voice, drank the wine in the wine bowl in one go, threw a handful of copper coins on the table and said: "Let's live, if this bowl of rice can't be eaten, the old men will go up the mountain to be thieves, go into the water to be thieves, and then wait for this invincible celebrity to come to suppress the bandits and cut off their heads!" ”

Lu Huiqing heard the shipowner say this, smiled slightly, closed his eyes and continued to listen to gossip.

One of the ship's owners suddenly whispered, "Do you know?" In addition to the scourge of witchcraft in the capital, a good monk was tricked and almost died, if it wasn't for the black charcoal head of Kaifeng Mansion who broke the case, the monk would definitely die in vain. ”

The stout shipowner, who was about to leave, also came to his senses, leaned over and whispered, "Who did it?" What a guts! ”

"I heard that it is a professor in the Guozi Prison, I don't know what the name is, I only know that it is a professor."

"Isn't that fucking boring? Killing with a knife is enough, what kind of grudge is worthy of such a dead hand? This time, the lives of the whole family, young and old, may not be saved. ”

Lu Huiqing opened his eyes, his cold eyes were like a knife, but he quickly disappeared, and he lowered his head again and planned to continue listening, who knew that those boat owners no longer talked about this kind of thing, and began to say some strange things on the water, including the story of Lu Huiqing encountering the rat spirit, and the owners of the ships were very excited, and they didn't even bother to greet the courtesans around them......

After Lu Huiqing was carried away by Ayou, she was reluctant to enter the room, leaning against the wall alone and crying, until she couldn't help crying, and then covered her mouth with her hand.

What kind of sin will it be after the witchcraft is discovered, Lu Huiqing couldn't be clearer, he really wants to rush back to Quanzhou as quickly as possible to flee with his family. However, his body did not allow him to do this at all, and he was delayed in Suzhou for a whole month, and it was impossible to go home before the imperial court showed him in any case......

Three days later, Lu Huiqing was barely able to walk, and Ayou caught the ox cart and took Lu Huiqing to Suzhou......

There is a big Song money village here in Suzhou, Ayou took the bill of exchange here to sign the money, and drove the ox cart to the upper reaches of Suzhou without stopping for a moment, along the way, Lu Huiqing's spirit was much better, always chattering and Ayou said some interesting things about his hometown, and let Ayou buy a lot of good wine and good food, when passing by a dry well, Lu Huiqing told Ayou to stop, put out the wine and meat, and the master and servant sat in the sun to eat and drink.

Lu Huiqing put his hand on Ayou's shoulder and wept: "I am credulous, so that there is such a disaster, only you will serve me without abandonment, your great kindness Lu Huiqing will never forget, from today on, you are no longer my servant, but my brother, closer than my own flesh and blood!" ”

Ayou hugged Lu Huiqing and cried gratefully......

The two of them cried for a while in the sun and drank a large bowl of wine, and it was not long before both of them were drunk.

After a while, Lu Huiqing slowly opened her eyes, listened to Ayou's snoring and stood up with great effort, lifted Ayou's legs and put them on the edge of the well, and then used all her strength to push Ayou, who was still asleep, into the dry well......

He sat on the edge of the dry well and listened, and there was a faint groaning sound, so Lu Huiqing used a knife to pry loose the stones on the wall of the well, and saw that a large piece of gravel fell into the dry well, and there was no sound in the dry well, so he got on the ox cart again and turned the road to the west...... (To be continued)
