Chapter 290: Saving Grace
As I walked, I met someone on the road who was sitting in a place last night and called Dali, pulling Zhong Ling to chat.
"Do you remember the He Lian who followed the dumb grandfather last night?"
Zhong Ling nodded, a little interested: "What's wrong with him?" ”
"I saw him vomit a few mouthfuls of blood in front of the house yesterday, and it was terrifying."
Zhong Ling was a little surprised, looking at Na Helian's body yesterday, he didn't look like a person who was seriously ill.
As he was talking, he saw the mute grandfather walking towards him with a bamboo basket on his back and stopped him vigorously.
"I said dumb grandpa, go up to the mountain to collect medicine?"
The dumb grandfather couldn't speak, but pointed to his bamboo basket, and then pointed in the direction of his home, and said something in his mouth, and then left with the bamboo basket on his back.
He sighed vigorously and said: "What the dumb grandfather means is that he wants to go up the mountain to pick herbs and give them to that He Lian to eat, it's really pitiful, looking at such a sturdy person, but he doesn't want to be a sick seedling!" ”
After that, he shook his head again and again.
"Come on, it's getting late, I have to go back!" Dali waved his hand to Zhong Ling, turned around and walked home.
Zhong Ling thought about it and walked towards Xiaohong's house, the hour was almost up, no matter whether Wang Yicheng did it or not, he had to go and see it.
After walking a few steps forward, he saw that not far away, He Lian was holding a pigeon in his hand, and after feeding it, he released the pigeon.
The pigeon fluttered its wings, and after a short time it disappeared, He Lian turned around, Zhong Ling was not in a hurry, and looked at him, and when he looked at each other, he couldn't help but be embarrassed.
If you say that you haven't seen anything, you will inevitably be too embarrassed.
was hesitating and didn't know what to say, but He Lian laughed: "Brother Shen Chi! ”
"Brother He Lian, what a coincidence!"
Zhong Ling stepped up.
When he was only one step away from He Lian, the other party suddenly made a move and stretched out his hand to choke Zhong Ling's neck.
"What did you just see?"
His strength was extremely strong, Zhong Ling was lifted by him, his feet were already hanging in the air, if the stalemate continued, Zhong Ling might not be able to take advantage.
"Congratulations...... Brother Helian, you have to ...... first Let me go ......"
Zhong Ling's face turned red, He Lian was still unwilling to let go, Zhong Ling struggled hard, shook his head and said, "What am I ...... Didn't see anything......
"But I can't take the slightest risk!" He Lian said, and the strength in his hand gradually increased.
Just when Zhong Ling couldn't support the medicine and passed the breath, a voice came from not far away.
"Aunt Liu, I really don't know how to thank you!"
Zhong Ling looked at Wang Yi who was full of red light not far away, and wanted to speak but couldn't make a sound, and his eyes gradually became desperate.
At this moment, several people walked towards this side.
He Lian took Zhong Ling into the house, taking advantage of this vacancy, Zhong Ling bent his knees and hit He Lian's legs hard, He Lian snorted directly, and the strength in his hand was also loosened, Zhong Ling hurriedly stretched out his hand and pinched He Lian's wrist and got out.
He Lian endured the pain and raised his eyes to look at Zhong Ling: "I underestimated you!" ”
"Brother Helian, I originally wanted to stay with you until I left the village, but you wanted to put me to death, I am a person who spares my life, and today you and I must be separated from each other."
Zhong Ling took out the dagger and looked coldly at the person in front of him.
He Lian chuckled twice: "I said Brother Shen Chi, although you are good, but in the end you are a woman, if you and I really do it, you are afraid that you will not be able to beat me." ”
"Even this matter has made you realize, it seems that you really can't keep you!" Zhong Ling said, clenched the dagger, and stepped forward quickly.
The blade was pointed directly at Helian's throat, intending to kill him.
He Lian bent down to dodge the knife, reached out to hit Zhong Ling's waist and abdomen, but after being avoided by Zhong Ling, he ran towards the side of the bed.
Zhong Ling grabbed his collar and couldn't move.
Zhong Ling glanced at the sword at the head of the bed, naturally he would not let He Lian get his wish, and his hand became more and more neat, grazing He Lian's shoulder, bringing out a long and narrow opening.
He Lian raised his foot and kicked at Zhong Ling, Zhong Ling kicked him, and the knife in his hand also took the opportunity to hit his neck, just a little force, he could make He Lian's life Huangquan, and was about to make a move, but He Lian snorted, fell straight to the ground, and couldn't stop twitching.
Zhong Ling looked at this variable and didn't dare to relax and slacken, for fear that it would be an agitation method to be put on the table.
During the stalemate, He Lian spat out blood, and the blood soaked his placket, which was really terrifyingly tight.
Zhong Ling hesitated for a moment, but still squatted down and asked loudly, "Are you okay?" "Love the Book House
He Lian didn't speak, but his eyes fell on the table not far away, Zhong Ling looked up and found a small porcelain bottle on the table, let go of He Lian, and walked towards the table.
The porcelain piece contained medicine, and he took the medicine and sent it to He Lian's mouth, and after a while, the blood in He Lian's mouth was stopped.
Zhong Ling looked at his pale face, whether he could do anything at this time, and turned around to pour him a glass of water
When he got up, he was pulled by He Lian, He Lian took a few heavy breaths, and said angrily: "You don't want to kill me?" There's never been a better time to get started. ”
"It's okay to take advantage of people's danger like this, and after you recover, you and I will have a happy fight." Zhong Ling turned around and walked towards the table.
When he came back from pouring the tea, He Lian was already able to get up, stumbling on the wooden chair, looking at Zhong Ling's eyes with a little more teasing.
"I thought that with your skills, I would be able to solve it in less than ten moves, but I didn't want you to not only survive the ten moves, but also lead to the Gu worm in my body."
"I should say this to you." Zhong Ling handed over the cup in his hand.
He Lian took a few sips, his face had returned to normal, if it weren't for the large blood stains on his chest, Zhong Ling really wanted to suspect that it was not him who vomited blood just now.
"As time goes by, I naturally get used to it." He Lian looked down at his shirt and smiled a little self-deprecatingly.
Zhong Ling opened his mouth and asked, "Do you have Gu worms in your body?" ”
"Little girl, although you saved my life, I won't kill you, but I still have to advise you, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, the more you know, the faster you will die." He Lian smiled evilly.
Zhong Ling said lightly: "Now that Chiyan is rampant and domineering, what's so strange about being hit by Gu worms." ”
After that, she turned around to walk out, but He Lian stopped her: "I don't want you to make more trouble, today's events are ......."
"I didn't see it, let alone look at your appearance, I'm afraid that your life will be short, so why should I bother with someone who is about to die."
Zhong Lingtou walked out without looking back, He Lian looked at her back a little distracted, for a long time, he smiled in a daze, yes, he is now a dying person.
Playing with the medicine in his hand, his eyes became a little gloomy, and he had to do everything he wanted to do before the deadline was approaching.
When Zhong Ling returned to Wang Yi's house, Yu Ying was waiting for her outside the door, and when she saw her come back, she took her to the house.
took out a letter and handed it to Zhong Ling: "This is a letter from the secret guard." ”
Zhong Ling took the letter, Yu Ying looked at her with burning eyes, Zhong Ling couldn't help laughing: "Why don't you open it yourself first when you are so anxious?" ”
"This is a letter from Shen Gongzi, of course you will give it to me after you read it, open it quickly!" Yu Ying urged.
Zhong Ling opened the letter under her gaze, but when she opened it, she found that there was an envelope inside, and the envelope said Ying'er herself.
Zhong Ling handed the letter to Yu Ying angrily: "Take it, take it, be so cautious, are you afraid that I won't be able to see it?" ”
Yu Ying took the letter and happily hid to the side to look at it.
Zhong Ling also picked up the letter in his hand and looked at it, Shen Yichi had already led his troops to be stationed outside the city, and Lu Chaoge had been trapped in the city for seven days, and he was about to fight them to the death in the past two days.
Zhong Ling's heart tightened, even if this letter was sent quickly, I was afraid that now they were already facing Lu Chaoge.
looked down again, but told her not to worry, the understatement between the lines made Zhong Ling feel at ease.
Although Shen Yichi has the upper hand, Chi Yan is the closest to Yu Yun, and he is afraid that Lu Chaoge will borrow troops from Chi Yan if he is forced to be in a hurry, and it will be difficult at that time.
Thinking like this, when he looked down again, he really mentioned the matter of Chiyan, Lu Chaoge had already sent people out of the city to borrow troops, and it was only a matter of time before Chiyan sent troops.
The letter also wrote that Chiyan had recently defected to a general, and now the whole country is looking for him by any means, and they heard that this general has Chiyan's secrets, and they have sent people to search for the general's whereabouts, and if they can find it, they can contain Chiyan.
Zhong Ling put down the letter in his hand and pursed his lips, Yu Ying walked over, with worry in his eyes, and said loudly: "Little Wu, how is this good?" ”
"Looks like we're going to have to leave to find them." Zhong Ling's gaze fell on Yu Ying's feet: "It's just that you have ...... feet"
"My feet are not tight, you have fought with Chiyan, if you go, it is better than them fighting alone, let's set off to find them now!" Yu Ying said that she was going to pull Zhong Ling away.
Zhong Ling held her hand and said in a deep voice: "Don't be in a hurry, you are unable to move now, you have to find a carriage, and you will make plans after asking Brother Wang." ”
Yu Ying hesitated for a moment, then agreed: "I think this is the safest way." ”
In the evening, the two discussed the matter with Wang Yi.
Zhong Ling opened his mouth and said: "Brother Wang, the two of us heard the news today, the family seems to have known our whereabouts, and we are sending someone to look for it, we can't stay here for a long time, we will leave tomorrow!" ”
"Leaving tomorrow? So urgent? Wang Yi was a little surprised.
Zhong Ling nodded and said: "There have been a lot of disturbances during this time, and I can't trouble Brother Wang anymore, but her foot injury has not healed, and I am afraid that she will have to find a carriage, I don't know if Brother Wang knows where there is a horse market nearby." ”
"Then you'll have to go to the city." Wang Yi lowered his head and thought for a moment, then looked at Zhong Ling and said: "Xiaohong's parents have already agreed to our family affairs, and we have to go into the city to buy some things for the family in the near future, so let's leave tomorrow, and you will go with me tomorrow!" ”
"Thank you, Brother Wang!" Zhong Ling made a gesture at Wang Yi.
"What are you doing with me so politely? I think if it weren't for you, Aunt Liu wouldn't have negotiated this marriage for me so happily! Wang Yi waved his hand.
