Chapter 43: Prince Yue
Si Kou, the prince of the exotic Yue'e tribe, traveled south, re-led the army to the Central Plains, breaking the hundred-year covenant between his father and the emperor of the Central Plains.
He came from the downpour, and when he walked in front of me and looked at me dying in the rain, my mask had already fallen off, and my hat was placed aside, and the rain washed my face, and he bent down to pick me up and walked into the Cloud Climbing Inn.
The shopkeeper was still humming a ballad at the counter, lying on the counter with a feather duster, humming a ballad while pulling chicken feathers.
"A tree with green leaves, a touch of sunset blushing, a song drifting into the ear, a person left alone in the green mountain grave, a pool of clear water and other four seasons, a fish swimming without knowing anything, a memory of the empty response, a drunk and heartless. ”
I don't know where these ballads came from, why the shopkeeper sang so happily, the words in the song originally expressed the extremely sad feelings, but from the shopkeeper's mouth, those sadness seemed to never exist, and the sad tune was sung by him in another tune.
Si Kou Nanxing took out a bag from his bosom and threw it out from afar, the shopkeeper was quick, took the bag from the air, opened it and smelled it, then tightened the mouth of the bag with a smile, went around the counter, and asked the guest officer with a bad face with a smile.
"The guest officer comes with me. ”
But the face of the ground remained unchanged suddenly, and he looked at the person in Si Kou's arms, and was stunned in place, unable to take a step.
"Ahem, cough, I'm sorry, the little one was amazed when he saw the person in Childe's arms just now, can you take the liberty of asking, who is this girl?"
"Isn't she the poor one you turned away?"
"No, no, at first, there was indeed a boy wearing a mask and a hat and saying that he wanted to charter the Cloud Climbing Inn. Hahahaha, I almost didn't laugh to death, and I didn't have any relevant drugs on my body, I thought to myself that this person was probably sent by boring people in the industry who didn't like the eyes, but I didn't want to be a small gentleman with the heart of a villain. Since Childe doesn't know her either, can I implore Childe to hand her over to me?"
The shopkeeper looked at Si Kou, presumably he also came to ask for something important, and by mistake, his kindness rose, and picking up a beautiful girl was also a matter of not enough effort.
"Dare to ask what you mean? I will leave it to you, but you still do not do anything if you throw her in the rain and get drenched half to death, even outside the door of this inn?"
"Oh, no, no, no, you misunderstood, I just didn't know her situation before, I just wanted to give her a little compensation, Childe, please rest assured, give it to me, you can rest assured, I will find a good Lang Zhong to treat her, so that she will get better as soon as possible." ”
The attitude of the shopkeeper suddenly changed 180 degrees, but Si Kou was in a hurry, and at this moment with a burden was also unknown, and after thinking for a while, he handed me over to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper placed me in his room, and then took out a white jade porcelain bottle in the room, poured a pill out of it, and fed it to my mouth with water. This white jade pill melted when it came to water, and when it came to my mouth with the water, I unconsciously swallowed the medicine he fed me.
After that, he found a clean suit and changed the soaked suit for me, and after these were done, he folded the quilt for me, walked out of the door, locked the doors and windows, and then clapped his hands and left.
The night is deep, and there are two more days to be the fifteenth of August, and every fifteenth day of the month, the proprietress of the Yunpan Inn will go out of the customs, and then solve the doubts of the people who come to the inn to ask for help, and then enter the customs again on the third day.
Although the people who came before were much more fierce and vicious than today, they were all temperaments that could be seen on the surface, but the people who came today were all people who couldn't see through the shopkeepers, and people's hearts were unpredictable, and everything was false before they made their requests.
The shopkeeper continued to sleep on his stomach on the counter, or find something to kill the boring time. He stayed all night without sleeping, guarding the counter alone, and during the day, the Cloud Crawler Inn never closed, and never closed the small door to welcome guests.
Late at night, the inn seems to have people come out for activities, one after another people from their rooms back and forth in and out, some are out to ask the shopkeeper for news, some are out of the outside do not know where to go, but at dawn, there is no need to greet the shopkeeper, they will naturally stay in their respective rooms.
In a room on the third floor, a man and a woman had just come in during the day. At this moment, the woman took off her hat and curtain, revealing a face that was invisible to others during the day.
It is the proprietress of the deep alley tavern in Heshun Town, Jiu Niang, and the man next to her is the person who was entangled with her that day, the two of them traveled thousands of miles, not far away, from Heshun Town to the Yundian Inn in the north, from the beginning of the preparation of medicine, to all the way to get here, it has been as many as two months.
In addition, Jiu Niang's health was not good, she paused along the way, stumbled, and delayed a lot of time, Ge Ye felt sorry for her, and tried her best to find a good way to go along the way.
Around the mountains and rivers, we finally arrived here.
Jiuniang sat on the bed, at this moment she had already been poisoned into her lungs, and the toxins brought out from the mother's womb had accumulated until now, and she was suddenly exposed to symptoms a few months ago, and there were a series of problems in her body. At the beginning, she found Langzhong's pulse by herself, but Langzhong in the town was powerless, and Langzhong in the city was helpless, all of them told her to spend a few days happily.
Ge Ye was busy running around, and only when he had free time would he go to the Jiuniang Tavern for a night, and the next day before dawn, he left in a hurry.
Jiuniang has no relatives and no reason since she was a child, and her adoptive parents who adopted her also died one after another after leaving this tavern, and it was an accident to meet Ge Ye.
She wanted to hide it from everyone, waiting for her death to approach, when no one would know about her death, and with the change of dynasty, the tavern would disappear, and the town would disappear.
But I didn't expect Ge Ye to come suddenly without warning, I just happened to meet her with a medicine bowl, vomiting blood and falling to the ground, she couldn't hide it, she had to explain it 1510, she had already invaded the bone marrow with toxins, and what the doctor told her was that this was a poison brought out of the mother's womb, and there was no cure.
Ge Ye has been walking the rivers and lakes for 20 years, looking for famous doctors and miracle doctors in the rivers and lakes, but there is no way, he can only tell him that if he really has a heart, he can find the medicinal materials in the rivers and lakes issued by the proprietress of the Cloud Climbing Inn, and go there to try it.
Ge Ye, the master of the Qiye Pavilion, mobilized everyone in the pavilion and put down what he was doing, just to find the Chinese medicinal materials as soon as possible, and Jiu Niang's body was not as good as day by day.
At this moment, she couldn't support it anymore, holding her forehead and shaking it slightly.
"If you can't bear it, lie down and rest for a while, as long as there are two more days, the boss lady will be out of the customs, and Jiu'er will be saved." ”
Ge Ye grabbed Jiu Niang's shoulders and let her lie on the bed, pulled the embroidered quilt over and covered her and tucked it away. A gentle kiss dropped on her forehead. Jiu Niang stared at the man with her eyes open.
It seems that he has known each other for more than three years, and in the first year, he just liked to go to her tavern to drink, and never spoke, did not ask much, and was a person who came and went without a trace.
But in the next two years, he inadvertently got drunk once and boldly revealed his heart, Jiu Niang just thought that he was drunk and disorderly, and did not take his sincerity seriously at all, and got up very sensibly the next morning as if nothing had happened.
Originally, Ge Ye wanted to come to the door to propose marriage, and marry her at that time, but she was able to act as if it had never happened.
When he asked, she seemed to be just a whim and had no sincerity at all, and after that, he was secretly angry in his heart, and Jiu Niang really acted as if everything had never happened.
After that, he never mentioned saying anything like taking her, or made any promises.
But now his approach has made Jiu Niang's heart warm, asking him if he still feels guilty about her, Ge Ye was very angry, and once again showed his heart, this three-year-long love finally saw the light, and Jiu Niang finally believed in Ge's true feelings.
Now the two are like a couple with deep affection, without the shyness of the newlywed Yan'er, only respectful and respectful.
The flickering candle flame imprinted the shadows of the two on the wall tent, and Jiu Niang slowly closed her eyes, as if she was asleep. And Ge Ye took advantage of the night to sneak into the darkness, and this was a night.
When I woke up, it was such a scene, the shopkeeper was watching me with his eyes closed and nodding, he actually sat on the edge of my bed and dozed me off, since I saw him, he looked very tired, either sleeping or dozing off and yawning.
I crept to my feet, and who knows what he wanted? Then the quilt slipped off, and my clothes were changed, my hair was scattered, and the mask on my face was gone.
I panicked and screamed.
"Huh!?"
"What's wrong, what's going on?"
He didn't know why, he looked around, but he didn't pay attention to me, I slapped him in the face, and there was a snap, and the sound was very crisp.
"Say, you, what the hell do you want to do?"
"Hiss, sachet,, what are you doing to hit me?"
"Why did you say you hit you? You insulted me, then after I went out, my brothers disappeared for some reason, and then they woke up and saw you. Surely you know, right?"
"I, I don't know, I only saw your true face later. By the way, I'll tell you something quietly. You come with your ears. ”
"If you have something to say, what are you doing sneaky?"
I looked at him with disgust, but he didn't speak, he turned his face away, and then tore off a piece of human skin mask, revealing his true face, I was surprised and strange, why her, why is she here?
She covered the half of my face with a hippie smile, looked at me angrily and half-coquettishly, and spat out words of complaint and apology.
