Chapter 35 Phoenix Island
Phoenix Island is an island with a tropical climate, humid and rainy all year round, with dense vegetation. The island is inaccessible and full of insects and snakes, and only a small part of the aborigines, known as the Wa people, live a very primitive life.
Originally, Phoenix Island was narrow and sparsely populated, and it was insignificant in the vast territory of the Baili Dynasty, and neither the emperor nor other ministers took this small island into account.
However, who would have thought that more than ten years ago, the Japanese people of Phoenix Island actually rebelled, in a vain attempt to annex dozens of towns along the coast of Baili Country and establish what they called the Japanese people's country. For a time, the Japanese people burned, killed, and looted in the coastal areas, and did all kinds of evil.
Seeing that the little ant actually dared to provoke the national prestige of the dignified Baili Country, the emperor was immediately furious and sent General Rong, the father of Rong Xiu, to personally clean it up.
The Japanese people had limited manpower and material resources, and provoking the country of Baili was simply hitting a stone with an egg, and after resisting for seven days, they finally ran out of ammunition and food, and the patriarch surrendered with a white flag. After the riots, the islanders of Phoenix Island were reduced to fishermen and were not allowed to cross the Phoenix Line at sea for the rest of their lives.
Unexpectedly, it has only stopped for more than ten years, and this group of widows has made a comeback!
Rong Xiu and the Gu family's father and son pointed at the topographic map of Phoenix Island that Pan Shu had drawn a long time ago, Rong Xiu took a wolf and circled it in a position: "This is where we are now, although from all indications, the person who kidnapped the princess and others is from Phoenix Island, but other possibilities cannot be ruled out." Therefore, while attacking Phoenix Island, Zhengrong will take people and send a few clippers to search carefully in the nearby sea and the surrounding islands to see if there is a code left by Qingbai, and immediately notify me with cloud-piercing arrows as soon as there is news! ”
Zheng Rong hurriedly clenched his fist and beat his chest: "Don't worry, leave it to me, there is absolutely no problem!" After saying that, he took the order and went out.
Rong Xiu's slender wrist paused, and the wolf ink in another place: "Here on Phoenix Island, please also ask Gu to join the army to act with me." After the last purge of the Japanese people, there are not many people left, and they mainly live together in groups. This is the original nest of their widows, but after more than ten years of changes, it is difficult to say whether the nest is still here! ”
Pan Shu poured a sip of tea on the side, and put the tea bowl on the table with a "bang": "What the hell are you doing so much, Phoenix Island is just a big place, Lao Tzu sent more people to surround the island inside and out, I don't believe I can't find the princess!" ”
Yan Xiaoyun walked into the cabin from the outside with a tray, and heard Pan Shu's unscrupulous words from a distance, and couldn't help but interject: "Then how can we do it, we have limited troops now, and it is simply unrealistic to encircle Phoenix Island, and it will probably take a lot of time to send more troops over." And can you guarantee that after the widows catch the princess, they will wait for you to rescue them, in case they are forced to be anxious, and the dog jumps over the wall to take any extreme measures, you just wait to take off your head and go back to apologize! ”
Gu Weihai glared at her dissatisfiedly when she walked in by herself, and her white beard curled: "Who allowed you to come in casually?" Don't you know what we're talking about, how can you know the secrets in this barracks as a woman! ”
Yan Xiaowei curled her lips and smiled at him: "Gu Lao joined the army, first, no one stopped me at the door when I came in, telling me that military secrets were not allowed to participate; Second, I didn't come in casually, I came to treat the wounds of the general and Brother Pan; Thirdly, I really don't have much interest in your rescue methods, but you are talking too loudly, I can't even listen if I don't want to! ”
Gu Weihai was choked by her words, his beard curled for a long time, he slapped his big palm on the table, turned his head and asked Rong Xiu: "This stinky girl won't always follow us, right?" I'm going to say ugly things ahead, no matter what you have to do with this stinky girl, there will never be a woman in my Gu Weihai's barracks! ”
Rong Xiu's lips moved, and he was about to speak, but he was unexpectedly snatched by Yan Xiaoyi: "Gu Lao joined the army, I see that you don't seem to understand the current situation, our three ships are now tied to a chain floating in the middle of the sea, if I want me to be by your side, not on this ship, there are only two choices." First, you sent an undermanned force to send a small boat to escort me back to land; Second, I immediately jumped into the sea and became another unjust soul on this sea! Which of these two is suitable? ”
Gu Weihai took a deep breath, and was about to go crazy, Pan Shu hurriedly pulled over the tray that Yan Xiaoyan put on the table, interrupting the dark tide between the two: "Oh, brother and sister, what is in your tray?" ”
Yan Xiaowei immediately recovered from the inexplicable confrontation with Old Man Gu, and hurriedly took out the medicinal wine and ointment: "Oh, weren't you injured in the fight with the black-faced man on the boat just now, while the ship has not yet arrived at Phoenix Island, hurry up and bandage it." ”
After her reminder, Rong Xiu and Pan Shu remembered the injuries on their bodies. Pan Shu stretched out his hand to untie his clothes, revealing two knife wounds on his arms, and saw Yan Xiaowei pick up the medicine and wine and walked over to help him disinfect, so he hurriedly blocked it with his big hand: "Don't trouble my brother and sister, my little injury is not in the way, just deal with it yourself!" After so many years in the army, injuries have become commonplace, and I am a veteran of bandaging and medicine! You'd better go and help the general first, he's injured in the back and can't reach it himself! ”
Pan Shu sprinkled the medicine on the wound, glanced at Yan Xiaoyi, and muttered silently in his heart, are you kidding, let the future general's wife leave the general alone, and take medicine for herself first, even if he borrows his eight guts, he won't dare! Thinking that when Yan Xiaowei had just taken the medicinal wine and wanted to help him take the medicine first, the general's face suddenly turned blue, and he hurriedly touched the back of his cold neck.
Yan Xiaowei didn't think about it so much, she walked to Rong Xiu with the medicinal wine, and when she saw him sitting stunned, she reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Hey, what are you doing in a daze, take off your clothes!" ”
Rong Xiu's dark eyes fell on her face that was obviously worried, and suddenly remembered that when they met for the first time, she accidentally got poisoned, and she used her mouth to help him suck out the toxin. The touch of her mouth running across her skin suddenly came to her mind again. He couldn't help but purse his lips, the tips of his ears flushed unconsciously, his hands clenched into fists slightly, and then reached out to stroke his belt and slowly untied his clothes.
His arms and broad shoulders were frankly presented in front of her, with many large and small scars on them, as if telling the extraordinary past of his master. The new wounds added today were even more shocking, a two-foot-long cut across his shoulder, and the white bones under the flesh skin could almost be seen. The congealed blood was glued to his clothes, and was torn apart again by the unintentional pull between his undressing, and the blood was running down his shoulders.
I really don't know how he endured the pain after being slashed so hard, and he didn't let people find out that his back was so badly injured for so long!
Yan Xiaoyu couldn't help but reach out and gently stroked the wound, causing his body to tremble slightly.
She always thought that he was born in a family of generals, and he must have been clothed and fed since he was a child, coupled with his slightly frivolous personality, she thought that he was no different from ordinary gentlemen. But at this moment, looking at the scene in front of her, her heart fluttered.
Yan Xiaowei picked up the kettle and adjusted the warm water, and while repeatedly rinsing the blood on his wound, he instructed him: "Don't move, your back hurts a lot, it needs to be stitched, it may hurt a little, you bear with it!" ”
The wound was dispelled with medicinal wine, sprinkled with medicinal powder, and then picked up a needle to stitch it for him, because there was no anesthetic, as soon as the needle was removed, Rong Xiu trembled slightly, and his broad forehead was covered with sweat for a moment.
His eyes fell on Yan Xiaoyi's tense face, and when he saw that she bit her lower lip white when she stitched up, as if she was enduring pain with him, his heart suddenly moved. Except for the muffled sound of pain during the first injection, the other more than ten needles were stunned and silent.
Yan Xiaowei cut the thread, used medicinal wine to detoxify the other wounds on his body, bandaged them, and then helped him bring clean clothes to change.
"You get off the boat in a while, be careful when rescuing Princess Ruixiang and them, don't stretch the stitched wounds open! Now there is no sheep intestine, wait for the wound to heal in a few days, you must remember to remove the sutures, and do not touch the water during this period! ”
Rong Xiu took a deep look at her, fastened his belt, walked to Gu Weihai and Pan Shu, looked at the map with his hands in his hands, and said to her without looking back: "When you get to the place in a while, I will leave a few soldiers on the boat to protect you, you stay on the boat honestly, and you are not allowed to run around." ”
Yan Xiaoyi's hand to clean up the bandages and medicinal wine paused, and wrinkled her eyebrows: "Why?" I'm going with you too! ”
Rong Xiu also twisted his eyebrows, and refused without thinking about it: "No!" I don't know what the situation is on Phoenix Island yet, it's too dangerous, and I won't have the energy to protect you when the time comes! ”
Yan Xiaowei threw the messy things in his hands into the tray indiscriminately: "Doesn't leaving me alone on the boat to make me anxious?" I don't need your protection, just let me go with your minions, and I'll be able to help anyone if they get hurt!" ”
This stunned girl, why doesn't she know that people are worried about her! Rong Xiu looked at her coldly, wrinkled his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "If I say no, I can't, you stay obediently for me, don't mess around!" ”
Pan Shu and Gu Weihai were planning a detailed plan to save people on the side, and when they heard the two talking, they hurriedly walked over to help: "Brother and sister, you can stay on the boat." The general is also for your good, now the whereabouts of the princess are uncertain, if even you have an accident, won't it make matters worse! ”
Gu Weihai also glanced at her: "Hmph, I'll just say, women just add to the chaos!" ”
Originally, Yan Xiaoyun was dissatisfied with Rong Xiu's refusal to let her participate, but when she heard Old Man Gu's words of discriminating against women, Huo'er jumped up!
She couldn't help but pull over the chair and sit up: "You can choose to let me go with you to save the princess, or you can choose to wait for you to go to the island, and I will secretly follow you myself!" ”
This woman! Rong Xiu's hand unconsciously exerted force, and the wolf in his hand was broken all of a sudden, and the rice paper was scratched with a deep scratch!
He took a deep breath, his heart was about to rain, and he was about to speak. Suddenly, his arm was tightly hugged by Yan Xiaoyi, and he turned his head to meet her smiling eyes in a stunned manner, only to see her slightly pursed red lips open and close up and down: "Just let me go with me, I swear, I will never cause trouble for you!" ”
