The night was quiet, the heavy rain did not stop, because the gate of the old house was damaged, Zhou Yu and others moved to Lusu's house to spend the night. The dumb child's high fever does not go away, but the small mouth is open but unable to make a sound, which is pitiful.

According to what the Lusu Mansion Shanglang said, if the dumb child does not have a fever, he is afraid that he will damage his hearing, and this poor child will not be able to speak, and if he can no longer hear the sound, what should he do?

Aunt Zhou hid her face and cried, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao stood beside her, holding her shoulders but didn't know how to comfort her. Zhou Yu pondered for a long time, and saluted Na Langzhong: "Dare to ask Mr. if he has a moxa needle, can he borrow it from me." ”

Na Langzhong was stunned, and then took out a cloth bag, opened it gently, and saw that it was full of needles and grasses of different lengths, he hesitated, and said to Zhou Yu: "Lord Zhou, you studied under the divine doctor Zhang Zhongjing, and the old man has no reason to question it." But today, the adult's right arm is injured, and the needle will definitely have an impact, besides, this child is too young, and he has a high fever and is weak, if he is punctured, I am afraid it will backfire......"

Lu Su also objected: "Gongjin, you are too tired today, it is better to wait for tomorrow to rest, and then it is not too late to give him a needle!" ”

Zhou Yu pushed away Lu Su's blocking hand and said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow, this child will be hopeless, even if he can live, he will be deaf and dumb." Since I have a way to save him, I will not sell my reputation for fear of smashing the signboard by mistake. Miss Xiao Qiao, Zhou has something to ask for, can you delay the girl for a while, it won't be too long......"

Xiao Qiao stepped forward and asked Zhou Yu, "But let me help you hold your elbow?" ”

Seeing that Xiao Qiao understood what he meant, Zhou Yu bowed his head lightly, rolled up his sleeves, twisted the moxa needle, and calmly prepared to give the dumb child an injection.

It was obviously mid-autumn season, and the cold wind was murmuring, but Zhou Yu was sweating profusely. Xiao Qiao tried his best to help him hold his elbows steady, but he couldn't be heavy or light, neither could it affect his strength in applying needles, but also couldn't be unstable, and he was in a dilemma, and he was also sweating. After suffering like this for half an hour, Zhou Yu wiped off the sweat on his forehead and said to Aunt Zhou: "The kung fu of the needle and stone should help him dissipate the body heat, and every other cup of tea, Aunt Zhou wiped his forehead and hands and feet with a hot cloth." ”

Aunt Zhou hurriedly responded and immediately picked up the wooden basin to fetch water. Zhou Yu arched his hand to Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao and said: "It is Zhou's fault that the two girls were frightened today. The hour is not early, and the two girls are invited to go back to the room to rest early. ”

Xiao Qiao opened his mouth to say something, but was pulled by Da Qiao, and Da Qiao gave Zhou Yu a deep look: "Zhou Gongzi is high-minded, the grace of rescue cannot be repaid, our sisters went back to the room to rest, and asked Gongzi to take care of his body and rest early." ”

After that, Big Joe left with Little Joe. Seeing the two of them walking away, Lu Su bent over and asked Zhou Yu in a low voice, "Gongjin, what's going on?" Why did Qiao Rui's subordinates go to your house to rob people? If, according to what you say, these people are not on Qiao Rui's orders, it will be even more strange! ”

Zhou Yujun's eyebrows were tightly locked, and his eyes were like mist: "If it's just General Qiao's subordinates fighting among themselves, if it involves Bo Fu, I will definitely not give up......

"Looking at the appearance of these two girls, they don't know anything about anything, but they don't know if they are calculated."

"No", Zhou Yu said categorically, "It's not that they are ignorant, but they don't want to get power and refuse to beak." At the beginning, Bo Fu entrusted the two of them to me and asked me to protect their safety, but if I really got into this matter, how could I resist thousands of troops alone. I plan to take them back to Shucheng at dawn, and I can help Bo Fu plan in person about food and grass. ”

Lu Su smiled very helplessly: "As long as your best friend is involved, you will no longer be the calm and relaxed Zhou Gongjin." Five years ago, Qiao Rui flanked General Sun, and now his daughter is going to marry the young general as his wife, which is really fate......

Zhou Yu sat up straight suddenly, and asked urgently: "You said that five years ago, it was General Qiao who flanked Uncle Sun?" ”

"Yes", Lu Su was stunned and leaned back, not knowing why Zhou Yu was so excited, "Five years ago, I was the leader of Major General Sun Ben, how could I remember this kind of thing." At that time, we crossed the Han River not long ago, and started a war with Huang Zu, but unfortunately the siege equipment was in the hands of General Qiao, and his troops encountered heavy rain and could not cross the river, which caused us to delay the capture of Xiangyang. General Sun first wanted to annihilate Huang Zu, so he chased into Da Xian Mountain, but who knew that he fell into the trap laid by Huang Zu. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Yu's brows couldn't help but lock deeper: the situation in front of him became more and more confusing, like a chessboard dead, difficult to crack. If Qiao Rui had anything to do with Sun Jian's death, Sun Ce would definitely be struggling. How to resolve the difficulty of Shucheng and the difficulty of grain and grass? It can really be described as a ring after a ring, and it is a hundred pounds.

Above Shucheng, the bright moon was empty, and outside the barracks, Sun Ce sat alone on the firewood and straw stack, looking at the bright moon and drinking.

In a hazy way, the moonlight reflected the appearance of Da Qiao, happy and angry, delicate and lovely. Sun Ce's heart was sweet, he toasted the west wind and muttered, "Ying'er, today is your first birthday after we met...... Fifteen-year-old Ying'er, I have engraved it in my heart, but unfortunately I couldn't see sixteen-year-old Ying'er right away, I don't know if you like Luo Ying? They all say, 'Why is it gracious, Meiyu is matched with Luo Ying', I know your thoughts, but I don't dare to tell you my bitterness......" As he spoke, Sun Ce drank all the wine in the cup, only to feel a burst of sweetness and spicy in his throat, slowly infiltrating his lungs, and the depression in his heart seemed to be relieved a little.

At this moment, Han Dang walked quickly with a thin old man, and when he arrived at Sun Ce's place, Han Dangli said: "Major General, this is the guy who was responsible for lighting the fire for the flank troops five years ago......"

Sun Ce instantly sobered up, got up from the pile of firewood and grass, and looked the old man up and down: "Now that you have returned to your hometown to farm?" ”

The old man drooped his eyes and grinned, revealing his jagged old teeth: "The young general said and laughed, in such a troubled world, where did you come from and what fields can be planted?" It's just to exchange some news and eat together. ”

Sun Ce glanced at Han Dang, as if to ask him if he was reliable in looking for this person. Han Dang shrugged and smiled, indicating that he had done his best. Sun Ce was helpless, and asked stubbornly: "Five years ago, what was the situation when General Qiao crossed the Han River, do you still remember?" ”

The old man tilted his head and thought about it, raised his withered hands like branches, and scratched the lice on his head: "That day is the most memorable day in my years in the army, but ......"

Sun Ce couldn't help but be surprised when he saw him protracted, but he didn't continue. Han Dang sighed, took out some silver pieces from his arms, and patted them on the old man's hand: "Say it!" ”

The old man put the silver piece in his mouth and bit it, then laughed and threw it, and then firmly grasped it and tucked it into his arms: "On that day, it was a sunny day, and we were about to cross the river with baggage and grain and grass. Unexpectedly, the east wind suddenly blew, it rained heavily, and the river rose several feet, so General Qiao ordered everyone to retreat and wait and see......"

Sun Ce thought for a moment, lowered his head and asked, "Then if it is a forced crossing, what should it do?" ”
