Chapter 25: Truth
Dou Tiankuo, the son of Dou Chunting, joined the army with his father at the age of 12 and led millions of lions to travel thousands of miles of the enemy country. When the two armies were fighting, he fought with the enemy prince for 300 rounds, and finally won, which made the enemy leader ashamed and surrendered immediately.
Dou Tiankuo became famous in a battle, and became the pride of the sky in Nanshu, and the prince of Zhao, who had not yet died, liked to tell Zhao Yu, who was still young, that he was tired of hearing it.
He still remembered that at the beginning, the streets and alleys of the capital were discussing which girl to set up a baby kiss with after the father and son came back, and how many gifts to prepare before knocking on the door of General Dou's mansion.
It's a pity that what I was waiting for was the news that the Dou father and son died on the battlefield.
Dou Tiankuo was bewitched by his subordinates, disobeyed the military order, led an elite army out of the city alone, encountered a siege, the enemy took him as a hole card, Dou Lao General was restricted everywhere, and finally in order to protect the border pass, he led the most loyal subordinates and the most beloved son to Huangquan together.
is in a high position, his shoulders are tied to the world, but he listens to slander and loses all the chess pieces, for Zhao Yu, Dou Tiankuo is a loser and a complete waste.
Dou Qingshuang was burned and confused, she couldn't hear what he was saying at all, she seemed to have a tornado in her head, dizzy and heavy, she seemed to remember a lot of things, and she seemed to think of everything, but she felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
A little tired from being hugged tightly by her, no matter how she played the back of her hand, she didn't let go, Zhao Yu sighed almost inaudibly, hugged someone and sat down, untied the big sheath, and wrapped Dou Qingshuang tightly.
He took out a bamboo pipe from his bosom and pulled down the fuse in his hand.
With a 'boom', a beam of sparks quickly rose in the night sky.
After a while, a dark shadow fell in front of the entrance of the cave.
Seeing the scene in the cave, the corners of the dark guard's eyes twitched slightly, his legs trembled inexplicably, and he lowered his head almost at the moment when Zhao Yu looked over, knelt down and said, "Master." ”
When he was going to die, did he just see a woman lying in an indescribable place for his master? And there's a strange man lying in the cave, right?
What is this doing? Has the master's taste become so heavy recently? Did he accidentally discover some terrible secret? Will it be directly extinguished......
Cold sweat broke out from the back of the dark guard.
At this time, I miss Lu Yitou very much!
"Guarding in front of the cave door," Zhao Yu lowered his eyes, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch Dou Qingshuang's ruddy bun cheeks, the tentacles were delicate and elastic, and he couldn't help but smile, "Go find some clean water first." ”
The secret guard disappeared and quickly returned, holding a lotus leaf in his hand, which contained clean river water, Zhao Yu reached out and dipped it and wiped it on Dou Qingshuang's dry lips.
Dou Qingshuang subconsciously bit his hand, Zhao Yu felt a little subtle in his heart, in this case it was a little fragrant, his fingers bent and flicked her forehead, Dou Qingshuang was relieved of pain, taking this opportunity, Zhao Yu threw a pill into her mouth, the pill melted in her mouth, and the painful look on Dou Qingshuang's face receded a little.
The dark guard was slightly surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but say, "Master, that's the Enron Pill that the old prince left for you....." Catching up with Zhao Yu's gaze, the dark guard subconsciously closed his mouth.
As soon as Zhao Yu's sleeves flicked, a porcelain bottle flew over, and the dark guard took it, looked at Zhao Yu, and then looked at the unconscious man lying on the ground, and finally pursed his lips, walked over and stuffed the pill into Qin Yanming's mouth.
It is rumored that this medicine was made by the previous medicine valley master, the medicinal power is extraordinary, there are white bones and raw flesh, and the effect of resurrecting the dead, named Anran, is to hope that Zhao Yu can turn the danger into a disaster, and finally be safe and sound.
He still heard these from Lu Yitoutou, and heard that there were only two Enron pills in total, but he didn't expect Zhao Yu to throw them away like throwing cabbage.
However, the decision made by the master, he is a secret guard, and he categorically does not dare to comment on it, otherwise the end will be worse than Lu Yitou and them!
The dark guard dutifully made a little transparent, and quietly hid in a hidden place after finishing his work, occasionally his eyes were uncontrollable, drifting into the hole.
Dou Qingshuang was awakened by heat.
It was summer, and her body was covered with an airtight coat, and her heart was burning, and she was irritable and abnormal, and she opened her eyes with strong discomfort.
The cave was full of rubble, a small bonfire was burning in front of her, and her body was covered with a black rough-edged coat, and there was a person lying not far away, her hand seemed to be tightly wrapped around a person's waist, and a trace of the scent of pear blossom sandalwood penetrated into her nose.
Under the big tug, the two legs are close together.
Dou Qingshuang's brain was blank for two seconds, a slender finger against her head, poked her open, she looked up, Zhao Yu was straightening his collar, he was wearing a dark brocade robe, and the wide sleeves were embroidered with a large dark line pattern. ”
She has not recovered from the cold, she was wrapped in a lot of sweat before, and her underwear has already been soaked, at this time the mountain wind blew into the cave, and she suddenly felt cold, she wrapped the big fire tightly, close to the bonfire, her face was slightly pale, and she trembled and said: "Thank you, you saved me." ”
A trace of surprise appeared on Zhao Yu's face, as if he couldn't believe it, "I thought you would say that this son is nosy." ”
The corners of Dou Qingshuang's lips twitched slightly.
Is she like that?
Dou Qingshuang suddenly found that Zhao Yu was like a Gu Tan, when he first saw him, he showed his heart, did whatever he wanted, did everything according to his mood, and didn't care at all what the consequences of what he did, and what kind of fate he would be, looking at it from a distance, he only felt that the blue river full of the reflection of trees was clear, but when you rolled up the corners of your pants and prepared to go down, you found that he was bottomless, and a mistake would kill him.
She took a deep breath in her heart and said lightly: "I saved your life, and now you have saved my life. In the future, if he is in danger again, the son of the world does not have to have a psychological burden. ”
When Zhao Yu heard this, he looked her up and down several times meaningfully, Dou Qingshuang's body was thinner and shorter than ordinary peasant girls, and her palm-sized face was even more pale and weak when buried in the big pane, like a newborn carrot, he flicked his sleeve with disgust, "Do you still need to accept your love in this world?" You can pull it down! ”
Dou Qingshuang sneezed, and the corners of her lips suddenly pulled out a smile, "Could it be that you are interested in me, so you have been by my side all this time?" ”
The atmosphere in the cave suddenly froze.
Dou Qingshuang looked over, blinking her eyes, Zhao Yu stared at her, suddenly got up and came over, his silhouette gradually enlarged, his phoenix eyes seemed to be filled with peach blossom brew, fragrant and intoxicating, and his smile was extremely ambiguous, "Yes, do you want to make a promise with your body?" ”
Dou Qingshuang couldn't laugh anymore, and turned her head away from him.
"Life is only a few decades, why bother to disguise yourself so tired," Zhao Yu sat back in his original position, supporting his forehead with one hand, "I have been with you for so long, and this son is indeed a little curious." Your aunt let you grow up in a farmhouse without doing anything, and you didn't ask for the guidance of your teacher, and you were poor and destitute in your farming family, you should not know anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and you can't read big characters. ”
"However, you are good at writing and proficient in medical skills," Zhao Yu's eyes were slightly downcast, and he laughed: "Being proficient in two words, they all stain your craft, this son is indeed curious, I don't know your life, can I solve my doubts?" ”
"Since I learned to speak, my father has taken me to learn calligraphy, and I have practiced all year round, and I have never dared to forget," Dou Qingshuang turned his back to him, and his voice was faint, like the clear chirping of a yellow bird in the morning, which was extremely pleasant, "Medical skills are innate." ”
Zhao Yu's face sank, "Dou Qingshuang, you can't be a fool in this world." ”
"I didn't lie to you," Dou Qingshuang turned her head, a pair of clear eyes like a clear spring gathered after the first snow melted, reflecting the most sincere light in the world, "I didn't drink Meng Po soup, my previous life was a lonely. Son, when he grew up, he became a doctor, and one day he came home from work to save a man, and then he was stabbed to death...."
What a shocking statement!
Zhao Yu stood up with a cold face and looked at her condescendingly, "This son of the world sees that you are not lightly ill, and your body is too weak to be occupied by the lonely souls and wild ghosts in this mountain!" ”
"Master." The Dark Guard flashed in and whispered a few words in his ear.
Zhao Yu was silent for a long time, turned around with his hands behind his back, met Dou Qingshuang's gaze, smiled sneeringly, raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't want to say it." But this son reminds you that you have to repay today's kindness. ”
With that, he turned and walked towards the outside of the cave, and the secret guard immediately put on a large coat for him, and the figures of the two gradually disappeared into the night.
Dou Qingshuang retracted her gaze, tightened the big stool on her body, and a wry smile appeared at the corner of her lips, "Even if you tell the truth, no one believes it." ”
She picked up the gradually smaller bonfire in front of her with a wooden stick, and the firelight reflected in her eyes, gradually illuminating Zhao Yu's smiling face.
Qin Yanming was awakened by freezing.
As soon as his eyes opened and his eyes were lowered, only a close-fitting cotton coat was left on his body, and his clothes were stained with irregular bloodstains, and his brain was stunned, and he didn't come back to his senses for a while.
"You're awake," Dou Qingshuang, who was sitting in front of the bonfire in a big coat, threw away the burning stick in his hand, pulled out the palm-sized ashes and said: "I can't drag you, you hold the medicine by yourself, find a mountain spring, and take it with the spring water to alleviate your injuries." ”
That's ash!
"Girl, I saved Qin again." Qin Yanming's mind finally remembered the previous memory, his eyes fell on the corners of his clothes exposed under the fire, his face turned dark, the corners of his mouth trembled, and he couldn't help but say, "That seems to be Qin's clothes." ”
"The mountains and forests are cold, only wet wood, if there is no fire to warm you, I'm afraid you won't be able to survive tonight," Dou Qingshuang frowned slightly, "Life is more important than clothes." ”
Qin Yanming's gaze fell on the big grub on her body, and he wanted to ask her why she didn't burn this big grub that looked like it could burn for a long time, but looking at her pale cheeks, he still swallowed the words back.
It's just that he was asked to drink ashes....Qin Yanming said that it was still difficult to accept!
"It's really you!"
A surprised voice came from the cave, and then a figure ran over, looking at Dou Qingshuang and excited and excited, "Miss Qingshuang, I have found you!" ”
Qin Yan looked at the person who came and felt familiar, and suddenly remembered, isn't this the person from Tong Village?
