Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Willow Is as Dark as a Flower
"Lord Wang! Drink the medicine! The prostrate body in advance was a little closer, and one hand pinched the stubble's slightly green chin, and finally, tore open a gap.
Ye Tingfeng hurriedly poured the medicine into it, and his closed eyes suddenly opened, and it was quiet and cold.
Ye Tingfeng was slightly stunned, and glanced at Ye Puyu with an uncomfortable look, "After drinking the medicine, it should be better." ”
Ye Puyu's eyes stared at Ye Tingfeng tightly, and for a moment, she said in a low voice: "Jun Ge, marry me, I will protect you for a lifetime." His deep eyes stared at her deeply, as if to indulge her, and then he was far away, flashing with a serious tenderness.
Hearing Feng at night, she didn't expect Ye Puyu to be like this, and the red clouds rising from her cheeks spread all over her body. She scribbled twice, turned and sped away.
The night breeze was slightly cold and sober, and the night listened to the maple holding the door frame, staring at the dark ground with blank eyes, the abyss-like bottomless eyes in front of him, and the low and gentle voice full of magnetism in his ears, everything came unexpectedly.
Somewhere in her heart was gently touched, and the panic was mixed with a faint unexplained joy, which she ignored.
It's just that she's more determined about one thing, she has to leave.
"What are you looking at?" Shunyi's voice came from behind him.
In the brightly lit shadow, Xunyi, dressed in black, had burning eyes.
"Didn't see anything." Ye Tingfeng tugged at his somewhat stiff cheeks and hooked the corners of his mouth, "Why are you here?" ”
"I'll come over here and see what's going on."
Tonight was a crucial night, and the entire palace was guarded three times more than usual, as if it were an impregnable wall.
However, Xunyi did not dare to relax in the slightest, on the contrary, he was more vigilant than usual, and carefully inspected every corner of the palace, "Can you be alone here?" ”
"Hmm." Ye Tingfeng answered softly.
"After tonight, Ye will really stand up." Xunyi looked at the house as bright as day, thoughtful.
"Yes."
Not far away, a little maid walked briskly with a few plates of pastries and tea.
Hearing Fenghu's suspicion at night, she didn't order to send food, this little girl......
"Miss Qin, Master Su instructed the slave maid to prepare a supper." The little girl steadily handed the tray to Ye Tingfeng, and in an instant, the hand under the plate pulled out a dagger and stabbed her quickly.
Ye Ting Feng Yin looked at the little maid with extraordinary skills, and the cold light of the dagger slid across her eyes.
In the blink of an eye, the blade pierced her chest, and the little maid was stunned, looking at the blade on her chest in disbelief, and then smiled coldly, and a signal flare exploded in the air, shining brightly.
In the blink of an eye, there was no trace of Xunyi.
The quiet medicine room can be heard.
"Is there any movement?" Ye Puyu closed her eyes and recuperated, her face was pale and bloodless.
"Yes." Ye Tingfeng vigilantly paid attention to everything around him, for fear that there would be another little maid who would not die, "It seems that this palace is not as safe as imagined." ”
"As long as you're around me, you're safe." Ye Puyu said lightly.
"Is it because of me?" Ye Ting Feng suddenly replied, his clear eyes staring at Ye Puyu coldly, which made him quite uncomfortable.
"Yes, because of you." Suddenly, Ye Puyu agreed seriously.
Silent and silent.
At this time, the east, west, north and south sides of the palace fell into a fierce battle at the same time.
It's just that most of them are blocked out of the high walls, and they rarely break into the courtyard, but they don't escape the hunt of the secret guards.
It wasn't until the sky dawned that everything was at peace.
Shen You yawned and reluctantly pushed open the door of the medicine room, and beside him was Hua Ye Qing, who was overflowing with a faint smell of blood, with an anxious expression, looking at the unhurried Ying You, one after another.
Subsequently, Su Qian also hurried over, feeling cold.
"Hurry up and wait for him to wash up, I've soaked all night, and if I soak it again, I'm afraid I'm going to have bald skin." Mingyou held the tea bowl with his eyes narrowed slightly.
"No, you don't."
I only heard the splash of water, and there was a slight muffled sound, and then I heard Hua Yeqing laughing wildly, "Lord Wang, your legs are good, hahaha, your legs are good......"
Ye Puyu, whose legs had recovered, was not happy, and her face was gloomy, "When I release the news, I will say that my leg disease is aggravated, and the poisoning is even deeper, and my life is worried." ”
"Apprentice son-in-law, don't worry, the teacher will definitely remove the toxins for you." Ying You patted Ye Puyu's shoulder and comforted, "Although it will take some time, the poison in your body can be solved." ”
"Son-in-law?" Hua Yeqing was stunned, what is going on? Why did King Zhao become the "son-in-law" of this stupid old man in just a few days.
"Yes, he is my apprentice's son-in-law." He smirked and looked proud.
The morning light is faint, and the birdsong is gentle.
At night, I heard that Feng was dressed in black, whipping horses galloping, the wind was whistling, and the hunting was loud.
Behind him, the Nanzhao City Gate became smaller and smaller, until it became a small dot, until it disappeared......
Five kilometers away on the outskirts of Nanzhao City, the sky is clear and the spring breeze is blowing.
At night, I heard the maple galloping in the wind, the sound of horses' hooves, and the sound was sonorous. The shiny black mask covers just above her nose, revealing only a thin lip.
"Drive! Drive! "A rough, neutral voice, indistinguishable from male and female, echoes in the empty sky.
The forest path is obscured by knee-high weeds. Leaving the Zhaowang Mansion, I suddenly felt refreshed, and I was depressed and depressed for a long time.
"Phew!!"
Lead the horse through the fragrant grass and fresh air in the forest, and stroll forward. At this moment, there is no Ye Puyu, and there is no revenge, only herself, free and easy between heaven and earth.
The branches of the trees bear new shoots, and the birds fly and chirp to joy. It's fresh.
Listening to Feng's eyes narrowing slightly, enjoying this peace and quiet.
Suddenly, the grass moved slightly, and a low moan of pain seemed to be out of nowhere.
Stopping to look closely, I saw a young man lying in a hunt-like cash hidden by the grass, with a beast trap on his left foot, and his flesh and blood were blurred.
"Help, save me......" The faint voice was mixed with painful convulsions, his eyes opened slightly, and he looked weakly at Ye Tingfeng.
Listen to Feng at night, carefully check the surroundings, so as not to have a sleeve, hunters hunting, often have a back hand, hunting prey that escapes.
Sure enough, at the edge of the depression, a small wooden switch was hidden under a small pebble.
The trap is narrow and deep, and it is difficult for Ye Tingfeng to jump down to rescue him, and the best way is to put the rope down and pull the person up.
"You hold on to the rope, I'll pull you up." He stood and shouted, but the man lying in the pit did not move.
"Hey, what are you talking about......" Ye Tingfeng anxiously looked at the embarrassed people in the trap, "I don't think I'm going to die!" ”
“…… It's not ......," a faint voice seemed to float in, "down...... Come ......"
Ye Tingfeng glanced at the withered yellow trunk not far away and tied it to a rope.
Fang entered the trap, and a strong smell of blood came to his face, mixed with a slight smell of rust.
When I got closer, I could see that the man's ankles were caught by beasts, and the blue-black blood was half-congealed and dirty.
The jagged trap is deeply embedded in the flesh, and if you are not careful, these two feet will probably be wasted.
Ye Tingfeng climbed out of the pit with the man on his back. Looking at the stuck beast clip, I was worried.
This kind of round lock type animal clip, it is best to open it with a key, if it is forcibly taken, it is not only difficult but also extremely risky, and a little carelessness will lead to lifelong disability.
Listening to the night Feng sprinkled the medicinal powder on the bloody wound and poured the medicinal powder again, the young man woke up leisurely and said gratefully: "Thank you, thank you......"
"This trap is more difficult to find, let's wait here for a while, in case a hunter comes, it can be opened with a key."
At this time, it was almost dusk, and if there were indeed hunters, it would not be too long.
Seeing that the man's condition was improving, Ye Tingfeng sat on the grass and carefully looked at the unlucky ghost in front of him.
The mud-stained brocade robe was almost indiscernible in its true color, and a delicate and rare blood hosta was tied to the slightly messy bun, and even his pale face could not hide the gentleness between his eyebrows.
The sun sets at dusk, and the birds stop at the end of the road. The evening breeze is slightly cool, and the earth is fragrant.
Hearing footsteps approaching from afar, Ye Ting Feng was startled, his hand pressed on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and quietly hid behind the tree.
After a while, a figure was seen walking towards the trap.
The man, dressed in coarse cloth clothes and wearing an earthy yellow turban around his head, lingered next to the trap, full of puzzlement, "Huh? What's going on......"
"Is it your set?" Ye Tingfeng came out from behind the tree and looked at the rough man with a beard in front of him.
"Did you steal my clip?" The middle-aged man said displeasedly.
"Naturally not, my friend has strayed into your trap and was injured by the clip, please open the clip." Ye Ting Feng led the hunter to the young man's side, and at this time, the young man's face was flushed, and at a glance, he knew that the wound was infected and feverish.
Ye Tingfeng took out a silver ingot from his bosom and handed it to the hesitant hunter, "Excuse me." ”
The hunter was overjoyed and cautiously examined the young man's wound, "You don't know, I have an anesthetic on this clip, and your friend's wound is afraid that it is a little troublesome, so it is better to take him to my house, it just so happens that I have medicine to treat the wound at home." ”
"It would be great if it could be so."
He followed the hunter to his house on the mountainside, and saw smoke curling from the hut in the distance.
"I'm back!" The hunter shouted, and the house responded, "Wash your hands and eat." The woman's voice is not very graceful and pleasant, but it is very simple and down-to-earth.
When she entered the hut, she saw a woman dressed in plain clothes, holding a bowl of coarse grain rice in her hand, looking at her and her brother Tai on the shoulders of the hunter suspiciously, "Who are?" ”
The hunter put the unconscious little brother on the wooden bed and removed a cloth bag hanging on the wall, "This little brother has accidentally fallen into my trap and has been caught by the beast, you can bring the oil lamp and the knife." ”
The woman hurriedly put down her food and handed her husband an oil lamp and a small dagger.
"His wound is infected and suppurated, and the rotten flesh needs to be removed." The hunter roasted the dagger as he said, "No beast has ever escaped my trap. ”
Ye Tingfeng wanted to laugh inexplicably, but because of the occasion, he only said thank you lightly and sat aside.
The hunter shoved half of the stick into the young man's mouth, pressed his hand firmly on the wound, and slashed with precision without the slightest panic.
A moment later, the hunter's wife walked in with a steaming black potion, and she could smell the bitterness as she stood by Kaede.
The hunter just finished bandaging his wounds.
The moon is like frost, and the starry sky is sparse.
Ye Tingfeng clasped his hands and stood at the door, the sky was vast, distant and lonely.
The man on the bed coughed lightly, his face was slightly red, "Water, water......"
A small glass of water went down his throat, and the man was calm again.
After listening to the maple feeding the horses at night, he jumped to the tree and quietly felt the peace and quiet that he had not seen for a long time.
In the past, after the mission, she and No. 3 would drive the horse to the woods to rest. High branches, cool winds, no fighting, no blood.
I don't know if those partners who stayed in Beiyi are okay now?
With a sigh, scattered, the night was as condensed as water, peaceful and peaceful.
When Yunqiao struggled to wake up, he was greeted by the simple and simple roof beams, and the smell of dust was everywhere in his nose.
Where is this?
Suddenly remembered that he was chased and killed yesterday, and when he escaped, he accidentally fell into a trap and was rescued by a young man in black......
Could it be that this is Orion's home?
Just as Yunqiao fell into thought, there was a "squeak", and the door was pushed open.
"Are you awake?" Male and female voices were heard, followed by a masked face.
"Thank you for saving me." Yunqiao thanked him, regardless of whether the other party had a purpose and saved his life, thank you.
"It's your own life, drink the medicine." Listening to Feng at night, he poured the warm bitter medicine into the mouth of the cloud bridge.
It was so bitter that Yunqiao choked and almost threw up.
Yunqiao sat on the bed, and Ye Tingfeng stood in front of him.
"Dare to ask what Engong is called?" Yun Qiao carefully looked at the mysterious life-saving benefactor in front of him, dressed in black and wearing a black mask.
"But when you meet by chance, does your identity matter?" The cold eyes silently glanced at Yunqiao, and he smiled faintly, "If it's just a chance encounter in the rivers and lakes, it doesn't matter over there, but Engong has the grace to save my life, and knowing Engong's name is naturally necessary." ”
"It's just an accident that saved you, but it's you, dressed luxuriously, and you know that you have a good identity at a glance! How did you fall into the trap of Orion? Listening to the night maple sitting lazily on the chair, with a bit of evil charm, people can't help but pay attention.
Under the dark mask, the thin lips pursed slightly, the fingers picked up the tea bowl, and played with it gently, carelessly, wantonly.
Yunqiao couldn't help but be fascinated, and when he found out, it was already night to hear Feng whisper.
Yunqiao smiled awkwardly, his slightly uncomfortable eyes crossed a trace of different rhyme, arched his hand, and his voice was calm and elegant, "I am Yunqiao of the Yun family." ”
The eyes under the mask flashed, like starlight, "But the Nanling Yun family?" ”
"Exactly." Yubai's face showed a smile that was extremely good, warm and flawless.
Listening to Feng at night, the Nanling Yun family is a famous imperial merchant in Nanzhao, and it is said that the rare and precious medicinal material Zhilan taro reed is the collection of the Yun family.
And this time when she came out to find medicine, the Yun family was a place that she had to visit, so it could help her.
Listening to Feng thinking carefully, he suddenly heard a voice from outside the house, "There are a lot of people gathered at the bottom of the mountain, I don't know if it's a ...... who came to find Childe."
Orion pushed the door in and told the two of them about the situation they had just investigated.
The name here is Shaoshan, and there are only more than ten households. Early this morning, Ye Tingfeng asked Orion to go down the mountain to find out the news.
Although I don't know that Yunqiao's identity is so extraordinary, I can guess that he is not an ordinary person, no matter what the situation, someone will inquire and search.
According to Orion's investigation, there were three waves of people looking for Yunqiao at the foot of the mountain, one of which was the Yun family's guards, and the other two waves were unidentified.
Yunqiao fell into deep thought, and his gentle and elegant face was calm and cold.
Ye Tingfeng knew in his heart, how could there be no open and secret fighting in a big family like the Yun family?
Ye Tingfeng handed Orion a piece of gold, and Orion also understood, "Don't worry, I'm remote here, and very few people come." ”
Yunqiao was injured in both legs, and he definitely couldn't walk, but it seemed unlikely that he would be able to heal here.
Listening to Feng at night, he thought carefully for a while, and decided to take the cloud bridge back to Zhaowang's mansion.
"Yun Gongzi, I can't hide it, I have something important to do, I'm afraid I can't stay here anymore, I don't know what your plans are?"
Yunqiao didn't know the identity of Feng, so he naturally couldn't guess her thoughts, so he just asked him about his plans. However, the current plan needs to be carefully considered.
Outside the window, it rained at some point, and it was dense and foggy. Gloomy, slightly chilly.
The west wind makes it cloudy, and the dusk is sparse and wet.
Listening to the maple in the night, he followed the hunter into the deep mountains, and there was a medicine of Xiqinlan, which would protrude from the ground after the rain, and it was much easier to find than usual.
"Xiqinlando is on the leeward slope, let's go further." The hunter carried a wooden stick and a burlap bag across his waist, picking up mushrooms as he went.
The smoke and rain are wet, and the mountains and wilderness are wet.
Orion took out a few nests and carefully collected the eggs into a small cloth bag.
The drizzle rested, and the fog was hazy.
Listen to the night maple and Orion return with a full load. On the way back, Orion hunted a pheasant that slipped out for a breath of fresh air, and an extra game was served for dinner. The mood instantly brightened.
Yunqiao sat on the bed, looking at the wet scenery through the cracks in the propped windows, and the air after the rain was fragrant and fresh.
Walking beside the tall and sturdy Orion, Ye Tingfeng looked petite and thin.
"The important thing that Engong said is to find medicine?" Since listening to Feng follow Orion to find medicine at night, Yunqiao has already planned for the next plan.
Ye Tingfeng patted the water vapor on his body, and replied in a deep voice: "Exactly." ”
"I don't know who Engong is entrusted with?"
Ye Tingfeng put down the water glass and rubbed his hands, "It's not entrusted by someone, it's to find medicine for my master." ”
"Can you easily reveal your identity?"
Finally waiting for this, Ye Tingfeng raised his head and pondered slightly, "The master of my family is King Zhao. ”
Yunqiao was startled, his warm eyes shrank, and he looked at Qin Junge hesitantly. Why is it King Zhao? The Yun family has never participated in the battle between the court, but only concentrates on business, and the powerful people in the court also disdain to interact with businessmen.
Now that King Zhao has lost power, he is even more unsure.
"How is King Zhao's injuries now?" Yunqiao frowned, slightly confused.
Ye listened to Feng and understood Yunqiao's scruples at this time, and said slowly: "No matter how injured King Zhao is, he is always the god of war of Nanzhao, isn't he?" Good birds choose trees to perch, and the worries in Yun Gongzi's heart have to be decided by Yun Gongzi himself. ”
Yunqiao was stunned, he didn't expect that his mind would be debunked by Ye Tingfeng without hesitation, and coughed lightly twice to hide the embarrassment.
What other options are there now?
The carriage galloped all the way, and Ye Tingfeng and Yunqiao were crowded together in the narrow garage, and the only thing that was fortunate was that the road was not far, and it didn't take long to reach the city gate.
Orion's voice came from outside the car, and Ye Ting Feng handed over a waist card to Orion, although it was only a glance, Yunqiao could see the golden word "Zhao" on the waist card.
