Chapter 84: Recuperation

"Gui Ying, your concerns and fears, I feel the same as the deputy flag master of the Gangfeng Banner."

Duan Ming patted my hand helplessly, and continued with a sad face, "I am not reluctant to do this. It's just that the decree is like a mountain, and once the order is issued, we are the lord of the banner on the high, and we are the only ones who obey and work hard for it. I've been thinking about it for a long time on the way back to Kazhou from Lingguang Mountain, and if I talk about a turnaround, I'm afraid it's only on our Feiyan Banner Master. That predecessor was an orphan in the war, and Qiu Weng was merciful back then, so he brought her back to the Tail Sect, took her with him to raise her carefully, and taught her martial arts. Twelve years ago, it helped her sit on the throne of the Flying Rock Banner Lord. These two seniors have always been very kind, and if the Feiyan Banner Banner Master gets the news, he will definitely be obligated to stop it. With her psychic messages, it is natural to find evidence to prove the innocence of Qiu Weng. But she was summoned by the sect leader early in the morning, and she has been missing for nearly 100 days. ”

"This! This is clearly the trap of the sect leader! I said angrily, "He first used the excuse to transfer the Flying Rock Banner Owner; Then he sent Wen Ling on a dangerous suicidal mission, seriously injuring you and me; then used tricks to lure the vengeful old-timers down the mountain, and indiscriminately charged him with apostasy; Later, he was afraid that the conscience of the two banner owners would not be cleared and help the old predecessors to rehabilitate, so they would take it away to avoid extraneous branches; In the end, let you and me, who have not recovered from serious injuries, kill for him - even if we can succeed, it will inevitably be greatly damaged. At that time, the new owner of the water-clearing flag will be in power, and we will be the ones who will suffer who know his tricks! With such a vicious chain of tricks, he has to kill us all to be happy-"

The more Duan Ming listened, the more his face turned pale, until he finally grabbed me and covered my mouth. He booed again and again to signal the emotional me to calm down, and when I saw that he was so serious and nervous, I was relieved for a while, and I calmed down for a minute.

"You're crazy, how can you talk nonsense about this kind of framing the sect master!"

Duan Ming put down the hand that was tightly covering my mouth, got up and closed the window, opened the door and looked left and right, then sat back in his seat and said in a deep voice, "Our sect leader is a first-class hero in today's martial arts. I am as kind as a mountain, and I am even more affectionate to you—but you burned your brain out with a fever last night, and you actually said such a crazy thing......"

"But isn't that the truth—"

Duan Ming's face turned red, and he wanted to say more, but when he heard the sound of three soft knocks on the door, he suddenly remembered-his expression was stunned, and he suddenly stood up and stared at the door vigilantly, hesitating. I endured the faint pain in my lower abdomen and stood up, gently pulled the placket of Duan Ming's clothes, signaled him not to panic first, and then asked in a deep voice, "Who?" ”

"It's me." I only listened to the pleasant voice of the fairy sound wafted into the room, and it was really refreshing to hear it by chance in this quiet morning, "I'll give you and Duan Gongzi's medicine." ”

As soon as my heartstrings were loosened, a smile bloomed on my face. After stroking Duan Ming's back, I stepped forward to open the door, and sure enough, I saw a soft smile like a plain white jade wall coming to my face like a spring breeze.

Her clothes today are very simple, her whole body is just a brown scarlet sycamore dark pattern thin cotton gown, and her jet-black hair is just tied up by a hemp rope, and a willow leaf with a twisted gold thread is inserted. Although it is delicate and simple, it is more and more lined with a delicate face, like a fairy painting.

Xu knew that he wanted to see a foreign man, and today's Wanqiu actually put on some makeup lightly, although the cheeks were just ordinary jasmine rouge, but a pair of peach blossom eyes that had been painted with a trace of Su Fang's rouge were extremely bright. Compared with last night's tired complexion under the withered yellow candlelight, it is a stark difference between heaven and earth.

I squinted at Duan Ming, but saw that the young man's gaze was also stunned on Wanqiu's face. Duan Ming has never been a person who is greedy for beauty, and now that he sees Wanqiu, he can't help but lose his temper, naturally because Wanqiu has an outstanding temperament like a fairy.

"Look, if you don't apply powder, you will be overshadowed by all the people in the Taopinlou, and if you put a little more thought into dressing up, you will really become a fairy in the heavenly palace." I coughed lightly, laughed and joked and led Wanqiu into the house, "It's really hard for you, I was supposed to be the character of this Oiran in Kashu City, but now I have to deign to serve the two of us, but I am really wronged." ”

"What are you talking about......" Wanqiu is a girl with a thin heart and skin, and she immediately couldn't hang her face and jumped to her feet in a hurry, "People see that you are seriously injured to serve kindly, you are good, you only recovered a few points and came to me to be happy, I am really not grateful." ”

"Where can I not be grateful, Miss Su is seriously our savior." Duan Ming smiled and took the tray of auspicious clouds and dark veins containing two decoctions in Wan Qiu's hand, and bowed down to drag the stool for Wan Qiu, "That day, my life was hanging by a thread, and I didn't know the relationship between you and Gui Ying, so I offended by my words, and I didn't have time to compensate the girl——。 ”

Duan Gongzi said seriously, "Wanqiu has a soft temperament, and he was a little embarrassed when he heard this, but when he saw that Duan Ming was having difficulty moving, he immediately bent down and helped him back to his seat, "You are originally a person in the rivers and lakes, and you are used to being cautious on weekdays." What's more, the situation was critical that day, and you didn't know me, so ask a few more words for all the best, and why should you offend it? ”

"Our Duan Gongzi is a cautious and reliable person." I sat down and smiled, "It's just that I don't know yet, Wanqiu, you took care of the two of us unconscious alone that night, and you were able to hide the matter until now, and you were very thoughtful!" ”

"That's exactly what I said. That night, the Axe Yue brothers were summoned by me in a hurry, and I was afraid that their identities would be exposed in the Mansion of the Second Son, so before I fell unconscious, I ordered them to return to the house as soon as they sent us to the Taopin Building. However, I was so hurt that I was woken up and fainted, and I was worried that before everything could be taken care of, Gui Hotaru and I would be in danger again. But I didn't want Miss Wanqiu to be in danger, so she arranged everything in an orderly manner. The news is blocked on the fifth floor so that outsiders don't know about it, and even I remember my instructions in the slightest. ”

Duan Ming nodded in agreement, and the other wall picked up a bowl of steaming medicine cup, and smelled the taste carefully before drinking it all in one gulp. "It's just that what kind of background is the girl from Nahan, who dares to be the daughter of a wealthy businessman family, and has been in charge of the family business since she was a child, so she has cultivated such a thoughtful and meticulous style of doing things?"

When it comes to her life experience, Wanqiu can't help but feel sad. She is an innocent and unsophisticated girl, and she doesn't know how to disguise and restrain herself. As soon as my heart was sad, tears rolled in my eyes.

Duan Ming didn't know what to do, but seeing Wanqiu so sad, he was also a little at a loss for a while. I sighed, stepped forward and gently hugged Wanqiu's shoulders, and told Duan Ming about her early family ruin, and her adoption by a master, and then her experience of meeting Chu He.

Canaan was dense, and the originally sweet aroma in the air was smelled at the moment, but there was only endless sour mourning.

"I see, that's ......" Duan Ming couldn't help but sigh after listening to the story, "I just said, how could such a character fall into the Qinglou, it was just a poor person in this world." Shicai Duan was ignorant and had no intention of talking about Miss Su's sadness, and asked the girl to forgive her sins. ”

"Duan Gongzi..."Wan Qiu was wiping her tears with a silk, and she really didn't know how to comfort the guilty Duan Ming, "You, you don't have to be like this......"

"Okay, okay," I said, "now that we know who we are, we're friends who know both cold and hot." In the future, be honest with each other and help each other, who needs to be polite to whom! Come, I will replace wine with medicine today, and I will pay tribute to my two best friends in this state. After this bowl, no one is allowed to excuse himself! ”

Seeing that I was choked and retched after drinking the decoction, Wanqiu burst into tears and laughed, forgetting her self-pity for a while. After eating together, Wanqiu had to go back to her room alone and lie down behind closed doors in order to avoid being noticed that she was pretending to be sick.

I hadn't seen Duan Ming for a long time, and I didn't want to be separated, so I sat in the room and chatted until Aunt Hua was busy and sent someone to tell me to have dinner with me in the evening, so I asked my next person to clean up the guest room on the first floor, and told him to go back to the room he was used to living in to recuperate.

At the beginning of the night, Aunt Hua led a group of people holding all kinds of delicacies to come in. She had not seen me for two or three days because of Ji Sarong's departure from the building, and because of the busy business before, I didn't know how many twists and turns I had experienced in just a few days.

Seeing her delicate makeup but loving face again, I couldn't help but feel emotional, and I thought of my own mother in another world, my mother who I hadn't seen for more than a hundred days, and I don't know if it was because of my sudden disappearance.

My father died of illness when I was very young, and it was my mother who single-handedly pulled me to this size. She is a strong and independent woman who puts all her love and hope in her only daughter. Now I'm trapped in another world and don't know how to go back, except for my scattered friends, I miss her the most.

However, missing can only be missing, and I can't do anything for her now. Thinking of this, the Aunt Hua in front of me became more and more amiable. Xu was a little abrupt in my intimate attitude, Aunt Hua didn't expect it for a while, but she was so moved that her eyes were full of tears, and she hugged my body and caressed me again and again.

"Good boy, my aunt knows that she has been a little too busy these days, and she is really wronged to leave you alone in this room every day." Aunt Hua was distressed and said, "Yesterday, the mother-in-law on the outskirts of Zhuangzi wrote back, saying that Sarong's illness is really urgent, and now is the most difficult stage, and wait a little longer to return to the building, then my aunt will free her hand, and then take you outside to have a good rest!" ”

Although I can't tell everything in my heart, Aunt Hua's words are really heartwarming. I held back my tears, accompanied Aunt Hua to eat happily, and watched her hurry back to the front building.

When the time came, I drank the decoction and medicine from the girl's service, changed my bedclothes and returned to bed. Just because Duan Ming had told me to rest more, from tomorrow, he will continue to take medicine to dredge the meridians, and my injuries are getting better, and I don't know how to heal my injuries, so I can switch to some supplements that nourish blood and qi - a body of recuperation, and a body of pranayama is the best way to heal my injuries.

Maybe because I didn't have a good rest for a day, my body was still as weak and sore as last night. However, even with all this fatigue, I still tossed and turned: Xiaohan was near, and there were only eight days left before Shui Qing was executed.

Eight days is too short, and it is too late to formulate a plan to save people, and now the Tail Sect has summoned an order to send me and Duan Ming to the Flying Dragon Valley to kill Qiu Xianyun, the owner of the apostate Bishui Banner. Although Pingcheng is only a three-day trip back and forth from Karishu, who can guarantee that this task can be successfully completed.

It's good to be able to complete it, but if you can't find the old man by then; or find the old man and can't bear to do it; Or worse, Duan Ming and I are not as good as the old man...... I'm afraid that Shui Qing won't be able to save her, and her own life will be in vain.

Thinking of this, my heart could not suppress a surging chill, I just want to escape from Kashu City now, escape to a place where no one can find me, give up the identity of the Tail Sect Banner Master, and go to find my friends with peace of mind. I don't want this peerless martial arts, I just want to be safe, and everyone is safe......

Maybe when there is no way out, I still have to ask for Hou Ye's help in the end, after all, he is an old man with power, and there are Janissaries who can be sent at will. If it is Wen Zhao, I would like to believe that he has the ability to save Shui Qing. But how can it be? At the beginning, I made the choice to leave the Hou Mansion by myself, in order to no longer be the concern and burden of the Hou Lord. Now when you encounter difficulties, you will turn back and ask for help, which is too immoral. What's more, after I left, Hou Ye, the sad and depressed Hou Ye, he ...... again

"Turbidity, run!"

There was no end in sight to the long path, and I ran desperately in the stagnant air. The peach groves on both sides are like devils with countless tentacles sticking out, keeping their eyes firmly on me and Xunyue, waiting for an opportunity to shoot poisoned arrows that kill people.

"Girl!"

With a terrible cry, I stopped suddenly, looked back, and my heart pierced countless steel needles in an instant—I saw that the round and white face of the turbid moon was full of blood, and a pair of big eyes trembled with horror. Her body was densely covered with only half of the poisoned arrows that remained outside the flesh, like a huge hedgehog that had always been bright red. She trembled and raised a hand in the direction behind me, grew up and shouted hoarsely, "Be careful! ”

I turned my head sharply—and saw a dazzling golden shadow whistling like my head. The reflex was normal, and when I saw the bright color that made people couldn't open their eyes, I immediately felt creepy, and my feet were as if they had roots, and I couldn't move.

"Ahh

I jerked up from my bed, drowsy at the sound of a terrible sound from nowhere. Xu is the right person to scream in the nightmare, I thought...... The heart was pounding very fast, the wound in the lower abdomen was painful, and there was no cold sweat oozing from the bedclothes.

It's a cloudy moon.
