Chapter 81: Because "I'm There"
"But you found the red danweed?" Jiang Changxi came up and asked.
She asked a little eagerly, faintly excited, which made Qingsong, who had followed her for many years, feel abnormal.
Red dancao is hard to find, from the girl's birth to his takeover, a full seventeen years. In the past seventeen years, the news of Hongdancao has been true or false, and the girl has been disappointed countless times with hope, and after a long time, the girl has gradually revealed a mentality of indifference. In the past two years, I haven't even paid much attention, why is it suddenly so excited?
"Qingsong, what do I ask you, what about the red dancao?" Seeing that Qing Songwu thought about him, but he didn't answer, Jiang Changxi became even more anxious.
Seeing her like this, Qing Song subconsciously spoke, "There is no red dancao, the news is fake?" ”
"What?" Qingrong's reaction was bigger than Jiang Changxi's, "What's the matter?" ”
Qingsong shook his head, with a guilty face, he didn't even dare to look at Jiang Changxi, for fear of seeing her disappointed expression: "I'm sorry, girl." ”
The eagerness and excitement at the beginning were extinguished by this fake news, and it was false to say that she was not disappointed, but the red dancao was hard to find, and she knew that it was not a day or two, it was fake in the past, and now the probability of being true is indeed not large.
Jiang Changxi accepted it quickly, but he still couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in his heart, and he was afraid that Qingsong would see that he would be sad, so he could only reluctantly pull it out and laugh: "I don't blame you, I was in a hurry." ”
"It's been hard all the way, let Qingrong take you to rest first."
After Jiang Changxi repeatedly said that he was fine, Qingsong breathed a sigh of relief and followed Qingrong down.
Dr. Wen took people to get the herbs sent by Panzhou, and after counting them, he sent some to Jiang Changxi as usual. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jiang Changxi sitting in front of the medicine stove in a daze, the medicine in the medicine jar gurgling and smoking hot, as if she hadn't seen it.
Doctor Wen has been in Tianshui Hall for some years, and he knows what the red pill grass means to Jiang Changxi, and when he heard that the news this time is also fake, he can't help but feel a pity in his heart.
He walked over and removed the pots from the stove. The little sound he made just woke Jiang Changxi up.
"Doctor Wen, you're here."
"The girl is sad about the red dancao?"
Jiang Changxi glanced at him, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly: "It's okay." ”
Jiang Changxi smiled bitterly: "Originally, I thought that after getting the red pill grass, I could refill the medicine, even if I couldn't try the Gu poison, I could let the patients try the new prescription." ”
"The situation in Lizhou is indeed not optimistic." In the past two days, there have even been patients who can't support the illness and died, and two of the medical officers who came to Lindu were parasitized by white Gu, and they couldn't do anything about it.
Doctor Wen was so worried that his hair turned whiter again, but he didn't approve of Jiang Changxi's experiment with red danweed: "Hongdancao is not easier to obtain than Jinlin grass and scorpion-like grass, only one or two plants, I'm afraid it won't achieve the effect that the girl wants." ”
"If you can achieve it, then it's a big deal." Tianshuitang spent seventeen years of hard work to find a red pill grass and still fetch water in a bamboo basket, if the red pill grass is really the antidote to the white bone plague, then the people of Lizhou City can really only wait for death.
Jiang Changxi sighed and said with a headache: "Doctor Wen is right, I was sick and rushed to the doctor. ”
These days, she tried all the recipes she knew, but found nothing. Jiang Changxi was really afraid that after a long time, Lizhou would stage the tragedy of Pingzhou again, so he wanted to take the sword sideways, but he forgot to consider the popularity of red dancao.
Seeing that Jiang Changxi had finally calmed down, Dr. Wen relieved herself, persuaded her a few more words, and was about to leave, when she saw Qingrong hurriedly walking into the door: "Girl, have you seen Qingsong?" ”
"Qingsong? Didn't you ask you to take him to rest? ”
"Yes, but I walked away for a while, and Qingsong was gone."
It's not a three-year-old child, how can it be gone? Jiang Changxi asked her, "Have you looked for it everywhere?" ”
"I've looked for it, but I can't see anyone." Qingrong said.
This is too abnormal, not like Qingsong's style.
Between the calcium carbide sparks, Jiang Changxi remembered Qingsong's unnatural look when he talked about the red pill grass, and during that time, he even kept dodging and never looked at her.
Jiang Changxi felt weird, could it be that Qingsong saw her intentions, so the news of deceiving her red dancao was fake?
Jiang Changxi felt that his head was so big, this Qingsong was really ......
"Qingrong, go and find it, you must get Qingsong back for me, don't let him out of Lizhou City."
Jiang Changxi believed that with Qingsong's ability, even if Lizhou sealed the city, it would be easy for him to get out of the city.
Qingrong felt that it was wrong when Jiang Changxi said this, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly went out to find it again.
Jiang Changxi didn't tell Dr. Wen what she thought, and said goodbye, and also had the intention of going out to find someone.
The reception point where they are now is very close to the city gate, just to facilitate the reception of supplies from Panzhou.
Jiang Changxi walked out of the gate, the street was empty, she stopped for a while, thinking about how likely she was still in the city, and Qingsong would go out of the city.
Before the result could be calculated, a shadow was swept from the corner of his eye, Jiang Changxi subconsciously turned around, and felt a pain in his head, and the flesh of the forehead horn that had been hit hard was broken and bleeding, and her eyes were red.
Someone shouted, someone restrained her, the sharp dagger against her throat, there was a cold stinging pain, but this little bit of pain was not as good as the pain in the corner of her forehead, the pain made her dizzy, and in the hazy ghost, she seemed to see the cold face.
"Lord Wang." She subconsciously called out, and a deeper pain came from her neck, and the carriage rushed over the bluestone slab like thunder galloping past her.
Because of the vertigo, she saw everything blurred, the heavens and the earth were spinning, and she was thrown on the carriage. The galloping carriage shook so hard that she was slammed into the back of her head and back.
The coachman threw out his whip as if he were desperate, and the horse was in pain, spread its hooves, and rushed out of the gate that had been opened for the transportation of supplies, and the crisp sound of the sword intersecting was gradually thrown away, but the coachman still did not stop, and drove the horse up the Quhuan Mountain.
The mountain road is rugged, and the carriage is shaking through the uneven dirt road, as if the roof of the car can be shaken away after two more shocks.
Jiang Changxi crouched in the carriage, and was thrown back several times when he was almost thrown out, and his back hit several times, and the hot feeling was about to break the skin.
Ten fingers grabbed the saddle of the carriage, and Jiang Changxi tried to lower her body as much as possible in order to reduce the impact of the carriage shock, but the effect of doing so was also minimal.
Jiang Changxi didn't know who was going to arrest her, and he didn't know where he was going to take her along the way, but if she continued like this, there was no doubt that she would be dead. She can't sit still, she has to escape from danger while she is still awake at this time.
Pulling out the hairpin on his head, Jiang Changxi looked at the undulating curtain, there was only one coachman outside, she didn't know anything about the details of the other party, this hairpin could only gamble, either he died or she died.
The mountain road is detouring, this is the opportunity!
Jiang Changxi slammed the wall of the carriage with the force of the carriage tilting when he turned, and the force of the impact threw her out again, and was cut through the curtain by the deliberately sharpened hairpin, with this stabbing sound, when the coachman turned his head in shock, the hairpin with a cold silver light had been accurately pierced into his neck, and blood gushed out, staining half of Jiang Changxi's sleeves.
"Ahh The violent shaking of the carriage still made Jiang Changxi's hairpin lose his head, the coachman did not die on the spot, but he was also unable to drive the carriage anymore, he was resentful that Jiang Changxi could hurt him by a woman, and stabbed Jiang Changxi with the dagger in his sleeve with his backhand.
The wheels of the car ran over the gravel, the carriage shook again, Jiang Changxi had a sharp pain in front of his forehead, and he had no strength in his hands, so he threw himself out of the car and hit the stabbing dagger head-on.
She subconsciously closed her eyes, waiting for the pain to come.
Before the pain came, a violent neighing of a horse came first.
Han Weiqi gritted his teeth so that his scalp tightened, he jumped up from his horse, almost fell on the carriage, kicked the dagger in the coachman's hand, and at the same time stretched out his hands to take Jiang Changxi into his arms.
He came too quickly, his feet were not stable at all, and the moment Jiang Changxi fell into his arms, he fell backwards, and both fell out of the carriage.
Falling from the galloping carriage, the force can be imagined. Even if Han Weiqi is excellent in martial arts, what he has is only flesh and blood, not to mention that he is still protecting Jiang Changxi in his arms.
His back hit the ground, his chest concussed, and a mouthful of blood gushed up his throat. Before Han didn't have time to spit out a mouthful of blood, he had already taken Jiang Changxi to roll and dodge the wheels that were rolling towards them.
The rumbling sound of the car rolled past her ears, Jiang Changxi's whole head was blindfolded, and everything was spinning, only the cold and tearful expression came into her eyes.
"Are you crazy? Won't you wait for someone to come to your rescue? What a strong! Thinking of the dagger that stabbed at her just now and his crumbling body, if he was one step slower, Jiang Changxi would cease to exist from now on.
As soon as he thought of this possibility, Han Weici was afraid for a while, and involuntarily tightened his arms holding her, and when his palm brushed her back, Han Weici keenly felt her slight trembling.
"You ......" was obviously full of anger and reproach, but when he saw her blood-stained little face and those obvious visible and invisible injuries of all sizes, Han couldn't scold anything, and hugged her vigorously to comfort her: "It's okay, it's okay Jiang Changxi, I'm here." ”
Jiang Changxi shrank in Han Wei's arms, and even a slight movement made the wounds on his head and body painful. But she still kept shrinking into Han Wei's panicked arms, begging for that little bit of peace of mind.
"I haven't quit." The blood-stained little hand tightly grabbed the clothes on his chest, the fierce panic of life and death had not yet faded, and the cold trembling but unusually firm "I am here" greatly comforted the little girl.
She's scared, too.
Even if she has endured too much malicious speculation in this world, even if she has survived the incomprehension and disapproval of many people, including her father, even if she can be calm enough and indifferent enough to face those sincere and hypocritical people.
However, when something really big happens, when facing life and death, she will still be panicked, she will want to have a harbor to hide, and she will want someone to say to her, "I am here".
Because "I'm here", I hide when I'm scared, and stand up bravely when I want to face it. Anyway, no matter how violent the wind and rain are, "I'm here".
