Lu Xin calmed down, glanced at the room, and suddenly walked to the cabinet in the corner, kicked open the cabinet door, and in an instant, his dagger had reached the other party's neck.

But it didn't stab it.

The other party was just a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a dagger on her neck, and she forgot to resist, but subconsciously closed her eyes.

Her eyelashes were long and fluttering, and her little face was delicate and white, and her lips were a little pale from blood loss.

Lu Xin is different from the specially trained Yingda in the end, he has been in the barracks, he is a bunch of rough men, and he has few women. As a soldier, even on the battlefield, when encountering unarmed women and children, they will not be able to do it.

He sighed, put away the dagger, and couldn't help asking, "You are a good girl, why do you do such a murderous thing?" ”

The woman looked at him, and just when Lu Xin thought she wouldn't answer, she said coldly, "A cheap life, can you still choose yourself?" ”

"Where are you hurt? Look at your blood, you don't need me to do it, you yourself can lose too much blood and die. ”

The woman struggled to get out of the cupboard, turned around, and had a wound in her back, from her shoulder to her waist.

Lu Xin knew at a glance that this was a wound cut by a big knife, and the deepest part of the force had turned out, revealing white bones.

He naturally had the best gold creation medicine on him, but the other party was a girl's house, so he hesitated and asked, "What should I do?" Can you medicate yourself? ”

The woman sneered, "You still care about this? ”

Before she finished speaking, she only heard a "hiss", she had already torn the clothes behind her back, pulling the wound, and she couldn't help frowning.

A large piece of skin was exposed in front of Lu Xin, and he subconsciously closed his eyes. turned to laugh at himself in his heart, other girls are not afraid, what are you afraid of a rough man. I settled down and opened my eyes again.

The wound is still bleeding and does need to be treated urgently. Lu Xin stammered, "Then girl, lie on the bed, I'll give you medicine." ”

Lu Xinshou hurriedly finished giving her medicine, and found a clean white cloth to bandage her wounds. After processing, I was already sweating profusely.

He took out a set of his own clothes and said, "Girl, you better change your clothes." ”

Her clothes were stained with blood, and her back was torn open, and she couldn't wear them anymore.

The woman nodded, and began to unbutton her front.

Lu Xin hurriedly turned around and said, "Girl, wait a minute, I'll go out for a while." ”

He hurriedly gathered up the bloody sheets and gauze, wrapped them in a ball, hid them in his clothes, and walked out as if he had run away, and closed the door again.

"Where is Lu Tou?" The guard on the side asked casually.

"I'll take a look around." Lu Xin looked at the other party's expression, calmed down, and replied.

"On this hot day, just go down and inspect!" This team of people and horses were all selected by Lu Xin from the barracks, and they all respected him a lot.

"You're busy with yours, I'll walk around again."

"Okay!" The man thought for a while, leaned over and said, "Lu Tou, pay attention, I heard that the feather coat guard ran a few people, and catching one is also our meritorious service!" ”

"Hmm!" Lu Xin nodded: "Not bad!" Brothers cheer up! ”

Lu Xin waited for everyone to disperse, looked carefully around the house, pulled out the bloodstained weeds in the corners of the house, and walked more than a mile to find a place to bury the bloody clothes and sheets.

Although it was hot during the day, it was comfortable for the temperature to drop down at night, and everyone was a little excited about a fight just over during the day, gathered in the yard, fished out the watermelon that was placed in the well, and Zhang Guard's palm split, and the people next to him rushed up and grabbed a piece.

When Lu Xin returned to the room, it was already night. The bloody gas has faded. Lu Xin was wondering if the woman had left, but when he lit the lamp, he found a person lying on the bed, wearing his own clothes, and the whole person was curled up in a ball.

Hearing the movement, the woman turned her head and said in a daze, "What time is it?" ”

Lu Xin didn't hear that something was right, so he stepped forward and touched her forehead, and it was really hot. He knew it was an infection from the wound, but he had no choice but to put a towel dipped in cold water and put it on her forehead.

At the moment, it is impossible to ask for a doctor to get medicine for her, and whether she can survive depends on whether this girl is dead.

He didn't close his eyes all night, he changed the handkerchief again and again, touching her forehead, it was also this girl's tenacious vitality, and when the rooster crowed, Lu Xin felt that her fever seemed to go down a little.

Lu Xin took out two ingots of silver from the baggage, put them next to the pillow, and didn't care whether she could hear it or not, and said to herself, "We'll set off in a while, you have to get up and leave after you sleep, don't go back to the palace, your master won't let you go, and don't be caught by His Highness." If you take this money back to your hometown to do a small business, how can it not be better than living on the tip of a knife! ”

Lu Xin tucked the quilt for her, changed her clothes and packed up her things and went out.

The woman heard him go out, and rolled over, her hand lightly covering the silver. The silver was cold, and she felt a little warm in her heart for the first time in so many years.

After that, although the trip dragged on, it was obviously easier. The group hurried in the morning and evening, resting at noon.

No matter what the prince had in mind, the first stop was Wutai Mountain.

Mount Wutai is the first of the four famous mountains of Chinese Buddhism and the dojo of Manjushri Bodhisattva. Before entering the mountain, as soon as I entered the territory of Wutai County, I saw the believers who worshiped the mountain in three steps and one kneeling, and five steps and one knocking towards the mountain.

The previous part of the trip was for safety, and the second was to avoid the arrival of local officials, so they were all micro-services, and there were also well-informed officials who came to visit, and the prince also summoned some officials, but on the whole it was light.

But when he arrived at the territory of Wutai Mountain, because he was praying for the blessing of the saint, he naturally had to go through the officialdom procedure and set up the prince's guard of honor. Officials of all sizes in these five Taiwan provinces have been carefully preparing since they received the report, and officials in Shanxi Prefecture have also rushed over early.

got the exact news that the prince and his entourage arrived today. Early that morning, officials of all sizes had already gone out of the city gate to line up to greet them. Seeing the sun rising, they were sweating under the sun, but they didn't dare to complain in the slightest.

The holy car has not left the capital for more than ten years, and today the prince came to worship the holy mountain, which is also a grand event that has not been encountered for many years.

The people on both sides who wanted to see the true face of the prince were also crowded. Although the government has screened countless times, and there are many officers and soldiers wearing people's clothes in the middle, the clothes of the yamen patrol who are in charge of guarding are still soaked.

It wasn't until noon that I saw a group of people coming from afar, first the canopy, then the fan, and then the building, the flag, and the banner.

Officials big and small all cheered up and straightened their official uniforms, and the people on the side were already agitated.

After another moment, I saw a group of men and horses, all of them one in a thousand fine horses with golden saddles and stirrups, and leopards or tigers embroidered in front of their bright guard uniforms, and their handsome faces with awe-inspiring and inviolable expressions, which made people look awe-inspiring.

The scene was inexplicably quiet.

The prince did not ride in a chariot, but also rode a horse. Dressed in a black robe, the dragon is on both shoulders, the mountain is on the back, and the fire, the Chinese worm, and Zong Yi are on the two sleeves. With an ink belt around the waist, there are two groups of jade pendants, which are painted with gold cloud dragon patterns, run through jade beads, wear gold hooks, and wear a four-colored small ribbon. The whole person looks luxurious and majestic.

I don't know who shouted first, "Your Highness Chitose!" ”； The people on both sides seemed to have woken up, and rushed to kneel down and salute the mountain and shout "Chitose".

The officials in front of them secretly complained in their hearts, and the etiquette that had been rehearsed was actually messed up, so they had to kneel down and salute with everyone's voice.

A Xuanli eunuch had already come to call out, and orally passed on the prince's edict, telling the people to be careful and not to crowd and trample.

Although some officers and soldiers tried their best to maintain order, the people still tried their best to squeeze into the middle, wanting to see more clearly. As a result, the carriage and horses travel very slowly. The prince was also patient, and the group pulled the horse and walked slowly in the city, allowing everyone to see enough.

The people on the side were full of praise, and even more excited people shouted feverishly among them, "Your Highness! "Your Highness!"

Xue Ke looked at the scene outside from the curtain of the carriage, and smiled at Ah Liu, "Look at it, if you look good, you are taking advantage of people." ”

Ah Liu looked at Xue Ke's peerless face, and thought to himself, lady, haven't you taken advantage of this kind of advantage?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was easy to get to a road before entering the official office, and because this road was sealed in advance to prevent others from entering or leaving, Xue Ke finally felt that his ears were clearer.

The carriage stopped in front of a courtyard. Xue Ke opened the curtain and saw a group of officials in front of him who were impassionedly saying that this garden was originally a monument, and then it was repaired, and he lived here many years ago when the holy driver came, and he learned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was coming, and the garden had been arranged in advance.

The prince nodded, and ordered the carriage to drive directly into the backyard. Everyone had already learned from the grapevine that the prince had brought his female dependents with him this time, so they were also prepared early in the morning, and several official wives accompanied him in the inner courtyard.

Seeing the wine and food that had been prepared, the prince said, "It's hard work!" It's just that the lonely here is to pray for the emperor, tomorrow is an auspicious day, this is the right thing to dare not delay, so after lunch today, the lonely will take people up the mountain, and after praying for blessings early tomorrow morning, then go down the mountain and drink freely. ”

Everyone thought that the prince would rest for two days before going up the mountain, but they didn't expect the arrangement to be so urgent, but what the prince said was right, and no one dared to refute it, so they accompanied the prince to have some simple meals.

The prince returned to the inner courtyard, and Xue Ke had just finished socializing with the ladies.

Xue Ke grinned and said, "I have never been so glorious in my life!" One bite at a time, one sentence at a time! "Don't say that in this life, even if she enjoyed the glory and wealth in her previous life, she was not held like this.

These ladies don't know her grade in the prince's mansion, and they don't know how to ask, they only know that they are the prince's favorite people, people from the capital, and they are three levels higher when they meet people, and it is always not wrong to call them "Niangniang".

The prince smiled and said, "Now I know why the Jingguan are all begging to be released!" If a brick is smashed down in the capital, it may hit a third-grade master, no matter how high your grade is in the capital, you have to live carefully, but it is different in the place, the third-grade master is the local king of the local domain. ”

Xue Ke stretched, "Hmm! In the future, I will also go out and walk around, which is much more comfortable than being a man with my tail between my legs in the capital. ”

The prince scratched her nose, "Do you want to be a mother?" He put his arm around her and teased, "Come, mother, take a nap with Lonely." ”

Xue Ke gave him an angry look.

The prince hurriedly coaxed, "Good! Sleep! With enough strength, we will go up the mountain in the afternoon. ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There are five peaks in Wutai Mountain, the mountain is majestic, continuous and surrounded, with a radius of 250 kilometers. The five peaks are towering, and the peak is flat like a platform, so it is called Wutai, including: Wanghai Peak in the East Stage, Hanging Moon Peak in the West Stage, Jinxiu Peak in the South Stage, Yedou Peak in the North Stage, and Cuiyan Peak in the Middle Stage. The top of the platform is majestic, the mountains are stacked, the peaks and ridges are staggered, and they are tall and magnificent.

When he arrived at the mountain gate, in order to show filial piety and piety, the prince asked the accompanying officials to no longer accompany him, got out of the chariot by himself, and hiked up with Xue Ke.

The mountains had already cleared the field in advance, and there was no outsider. The climate in the Wutai Mountain is cold, also known as Qingliang Mountain, there is ice on the top of the platform all the year round, and the weather is cool in midsummer. Therefore, it is very comfortable to walk all the way.

The prince was not in a hurry, took Xue Ke's hand, and slowly climbed the stairs. Looking at the strange peaks and cliffs, the carved poems, the rows of temples and the sea of clouds floating in the mountains, I feel relaxed and happy.

"Being in this kind of fairy place every day can really make people forget the heart of fame and fortune." Xue Ke couldn't help but sigh.

The prince tightened her hand, "If you like it, I will often accompany you out in the future." ”

Although both of them knew that it was unlikely, they still looked at each other and smiled.

Wutai Mountain has a deep relationship with the royal family, and when you go to the main temple, the presiding officer of the temple has already come out with a group of monks to greet and lead the way.

The monks in the temple have also arranged vegetarian fasting and monks' houses, and everything is ready, just waiting for tomorrow to pray for incense.

After a simple dinner, a chubby monk said, "Your Highness, the scenery of the mountain behind Wutai Yunxia is worth seeing, I don't know if Your Highness is interested?" ”

The prince nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

This fat monk is the master of the Zhike Hall, who is responsible for receiving pilgrims, but he is more talkative, and he talks about the scenery, history and anecdotes of the mountain along the way, but it is not dull. Then he talked about the miracles of the Bodhisattva's apparitions that have appeared in the dojo over the years, and the words are vivid.

The crown prince and Xue Ke just smiled faintly.

The fat monk saw that the two of them didn't believe it, and he was not convinced, but he was aroused and talked about the great monk Zhihai in the temple.

"Oh? Master Zhihai is on the mountain now? ”

"Of course! The master traveled to Wutai Mountain a year ago and settled in the temple. ”

"I wonder if I can recommend it?"

"This," the fat monk hesitated, "the master was in retreat last month, and he told me not to disturb him. ”

The crown prince couldn't help but be a little disappointed. Master Zhihai, he heard Mr. Qin Chuan say, Mr. highly respected, said that he is a figure who has broken through the great wisdom and transcended the Three Realms, and he has only been a fairy for so many years, but he didn't expect to hear the news here by chance today.

The fat monk hesitated for a long time, then thought about the identity and status of the prince, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "The little monk went to try it, but what the master wanted, the little monk didn't dare to speculate, he could only look at fate." ”

"Master Lao." The crown prince and Xue Keqi said together.
