"Lord Ning Yue, I've sent medicine for the wound."
When Meng Ye held a few porcelain bottles and pushed open the carriage door, the first thing he saw was Ning Yue on the upper body, and a wound on the right side of his back was congealed, and his appearance was very hideous.
"Ahh
With a cry, he hurriedly turned his head to the side, his face visibly twitching slightly.
Hearing this, Ning Yue looked back and smiled helplessly, and said, "Did it scare you?" Just put the medicine down, it's late, go back to sleep. ”
Who knows, Meng Ye shook his head and slowly turned his gaze back to the front, there was still a hint of fear in his eyes, but he took a step very hard, until Ning Yue was on his side, and then put down a few bottles of wound medicine. Remove the cork from one of the bottles, pour out a little and rub it in the palm of your hand.
"Or I'll help Lord Ning Yue apply medicine, it's definitely inconvenient for you to come by yourself for the back injury, right?"
"yes, then I'll trouble you."
Ning Yue smiled, leaned his back in front of the other party, and shrugged his shoulders slightly.
Looking at the scars that were still congealed with blood stains around him, Meng Ye hesitated a little, tentatively stretched out his finger and touched it lightly, the heat of Ning Yue's skin instantly reached his fingertips, and suddenly his fingers trembled, and he hurriedly withdrew it, and there was a trace of crimson in his cheeks.
"That, that......"
"What's wrong?"
Ning Yue was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to turn back, but was stopped by Meng Ye raising his elbow.
"I think you should wash and wipe the wound before applying the medicine. Wait a minute, I'm going to get some water. ”
"Oh, you said that. I don't have to go out, there are wet towels over there, I used them before. Ning Yue responded, grabbed a piece of a towel that was still wet and handed it out, only to see that the surface of the towel, which should be gray-white, had been stained with this piece of congealed blood.
"It's too dirty, I'll go get another piece and get some water again." Meng Ye hurriedly shook his head, but Ning Yue directly stuffed the towel into his hand.
"I haven't seen any water on the road for the past two days, and the water carried in the caravan is very precious now, so let's save some of it. Starting tomorrow, there will probably not be any extra water to make tea. ”
Nodding, Meng Ye responded, "Okay." ”
Because there was still liquid medicine in his palm, he could only carefully pinch the towel with his fingers and slowly wipe the blood stains on Ning Yue's back, because it had already condensed, it would take some effort to wipe it clean, and it was naturally easy to accidentally touch the wound. In just a short moment, Ning Yue had already snorted in pain several times, but he endured the pain and didn't make a sound, but at this distance, Meng Ye could naturally detect it.
After a pause, Meng Ye said softly: "Lord Ning Yue, am I too clumsy and hurt you?" ”
"It's okay, just let it go. These injuries are nothing. ”
"Such a serious injury, it's nothing?"
Suddenly startled, Meng Ye carefully looked at the upper body of Ning Yue who took off his clothes, and soon, on the other party's arms, shoulders and body, he found some other scars again, due to the long time, the traces were very shallow and not easy to see. However, to be able to continue to leave such marks after a long time, the pain I endured when I was injured at that time is shocking to think about.
"Lord Ningyue...... What kind of battles have you been through? ”
"Did you find out?"
Shaking his head and smiling, Ning Yue said: "I can't remember clearly, in the past, I used to fight with my brothers in the sect, and I often didn't fight lightly or severely. There are so many of them that I can't win most of the time, but I refuse to admit defeat and I am always beaten badly. Later, the strength was relatively stronger, and they didn't dare to do that. Later, to complete the tasks of the sect, he often fought fiercely with vicious bandits, robbers or demonic beasts, and few of them were easily solved. But at those times, there were no injuries, and now these are basically left over in the last year, and after I left the sect, my fate has completely changed in less than a year. ”
"So many injuries in less than a year?"
Taking a deep breath of cold air, Meng Ye's heart trembled, and the palms that reached out and wanted to apply the medicine were also trembling slightly.
"In the past, I fought to keep my mouth shut up so as not to be bullied. But this year, I fought for the sake of my fellow believers, wielding the sword in my hand for a greater purpose, and unconsciously and often at risk. But luck is good, and I have survived until now. Ning Yue laughed at himself, and in retrospect, every vicious battle after leaving the Cloud Void Sword Pavilion could be called thrilling, hovering on the edge of the line between life and death.
"I see."
Muttering softly, Meng Ye nodded as if he didn't understand, and a trace of sadness faintly flashed in his eyes that Ning Yue couldn't see. His hands moved again, and the cold liquid that was evenly smeared slowly stroked Ning Yue's fiery body.
"Lord Ning Yue is really a very kind person, I think, everyone who can be your companion should be very happy, right?"
Hearing this, Ning Yue smiled again and said, "Kindness? I'm not associated with that word. Even if I kill all the wicked people, but my sword is full of blood after all, for those people's parents and friends, where can I be called good? ”
Meng Ye shook his head again and again and replied, "But for those of us who were saved by you from the gangsters, you are really the greatest hero in the world. And there are so many people in the caravan that if you hadn't found a hidden killer and killed him, many more people would have died. ”
However, you can also think the other way around. If it weren't for my insistence on saving people, so many people in the three caravans would not have died. Although your fate is to be sold into slavery, if you are lucky enough to meet a decent buyer, you can at least survive. However, the dozen or so women who followed the caravan ahead, as well as the one in our caravan, were all dead. As long as you live, there's hope, isn't it? ”
For Ning Yue's words, Meng Ye shook his head suddenly, and said, "No! Rather than living in captivity like that, without dignity and being trampled on, it is better to die! I think that even those lost women will not hold a grudge against Lord Ning Yue because of this. At the very least, their dignity has not been completely trampled on. At least, in the midst of despair, they saw the light again. ”
Ning Yue sighed: "Yes." But not everyone is willing to make that choice. ”
"I have wondered many times if I should end my life and get rid of the fate of living without dignity. However, they didn't have enough courage to do it. I hated my birth and why I was born in such a tragic environment. However, I can occasionally rejoice that at least not everyone looks down on me, and there are companions who are willing to stand with me. It's a pity that our forces are too weak......"
In the end, Meng Ye even had a trace of whimper in his voice.
"But at least you have the courage to escape from the cage you once had. Unlike me, I have wanted to get rid of it several times in the past, but I still have some scruples and are reluctant to do it, until finally I have no choice. Now that you're gone, let's live well and stop thinking about the past, okay? ”
Ning Yue turned around and smiled and patted Meng Ye on the shoulder.
Meng Ye hesitated for a while, then finally nodded, hurriedly lowered his head again, and rummaged through the remaining few porcelain bottles.
"That, the wound on Lord Ning Yue's right chest, let me help apply the medicine again."
"Okay."
……
After a while, Meng Ye finally left, and it was Dihu who came in again.
"It's been a long time to toss, and I really don't understand, as long as you speak, the rest of the women are definitely willing to serve you, but they just order a man to come. Could it be that you really have a hobby in that area? In that case, will I ...... too?"
The voice stopped abruptly, as a glitter of green blades whispered above his throat.
"I called you here, it's to talk about business, don't talk about those useless things."
Ning Yue snorted, put down the condensing light blade ring in his hand, and sighed again.
"The dead and wounded, all the arrangements have been made, right?"
"Well, the dead were buried on the spot, leaving behind wooden tombstones. Their families will be notified when we get back. As for the pension, the caravan will pay out. Those who are injured should not be a big problem, and those who are seriously injured can get through it. ”
Listening to Dihu's narration, Ning Yue shook his head and sighed: "That's good." If I had paid more attention at that time, I wouldn't have died so many people. ”
Dihu shook his head and said, "I can't blame you, this opponent is too terrible." If it weren't for you, I'm afraid we would have been wiped out like the previous two caravans. Male and female, intersexual, when you first said it, I was really shocked, and I couldn't believe it at that time. I didn't expect that such a life really existed. ”
"If I hadn't had to deal with that convoy, the caravan wouldn't have been in such trouble. The pension of those who died, I will pay it. In the Snow Dragon Empire, I also saved a sum of money. When the time comes, I'll give you a letter and go to a friend of mine and get it. ”
The deposit in Ning Yue's mouth was not a lie, but Sima Haiwei gave it to him as a reward for fighting in the red wolf for so long, but it was a very generous reward, which was enough for him to live in the imperial capital Silver Wing City for more than ten years.
Patting the other party on the shoulder, Dihu replied, "You don't have to come out. Whether it is an escort or an official member of the caravan, if there is an accident during the business, the caravan must pay a pension, which is the rule. Besides, when the road is uneven, it is the morality of a warrior to help and save people in danger, and you don't need to blame yourself. Of course, you have to show a little bit of affection and pay a small pension, which is not impossible, but each counts in its own way. ”
"Well, then stop this topic first, what I want you to investigate, how is it?" Suddenly, Ning Yue's eyes became a little solemn.
Dihu shook his head and said: "I don't have a clue, I asked the remaining guards in the caravan who did not fight together, and only picked the strongest of them, and they all said that they did not intervene in that battle, and were only responsible for guarding the rest of the caravan." Behind a tent not far from the battlefield, a fallen bow was found, belonging to our caravan, consistent with the weapon system of the escort. But according to the number above, his master was by my side at the time, and it was impossible to shoot that arrow. ”
"It's strange who is secretly helping and refusing to show up. Shooting such an arrow without us noticing it is quite powerful. However, that person helped me turn defeat into victory, and he should not be the enemy, so why don't you want to show up? It's hard work to follow us in the wilderness......"
"You mean, that person, like that Aoi sister, is actually hidden in our caravan?" Dihu suddenly came to his senses, and a look of worry appeared on his face.
Ning Yue nodded and said, "It should be." But as I said earlier, the man should not be hostile. As for not showing up, I guess I have my own reasons. I have a conjecture, but I'm not sure. ”
"Who?"
"He was able to find out the hidden assassin this time, and he was indispensable. If it weren't for the fact that I combed it again in front of Sister Aoi, I really ignored one thing. Why, all those coincidences that became clues were passed on to me by him, intentionally or unintentionally. Those, is it really just a coincidence, does he not know anything about it? ”
"You're talking about ......"
