Chapter 14: The Long Journey Ends Near
Li Mo sat on the bank of the river, the dim light outlined his figure, I don't know what he was thinking, but I felt that the back was a little lonely. I have seen this loneliness in Abu's body before, and it was also at dusk, when I returned from riding a horse in the suburbs, I saw him leaning alone against a bare tree, blowing a song with leaves called "Will Return", and he said that the ballad was about a child who had no home to return to......
I carefully removed some of the tidbits from the water candle and made them a little more messy, and they were almost ready to use after the sun was exposed this morning. Before the army arrived, and no one passed by, I began to undress, and a wound was already stuck to my clothes, and I wanted to tear it open slowly, so I gritted my teeth and tore it open. Take out a pinch of flowers and cover the wound, and after three or four times, it will scab over on its own.
At this time, Li Jiajun was almost there. The general next to Li Mo also came over to apologize to me. Since they had to travel at night on the second day, it was too cumbersome to set up camp, so everyone lay down on the ground to rest. But there is a consequence of this, there are many mosquitoes in the suburbs, and it is easy to be bitten or contracted with some diseases.
Sure enough, everyone was suffering from mosquito bites. My mind spun around and I came up with a good idea.
I went to fetch some more water candles and asked Li Mo to find me two flints. After lighting the water candle, the fire was extinguished after a while, leaving only wisps of smoke wafting out. It's this smoke that can repel mosquitoes.
"It's amazing," Li Mo squatted next to me and raised a small torch, "I'll give the order and let everyone do it!" ā
So all of a sudden, a faint smoke swirled over the army, and within a radius of 100 miles, one plant was gone.
"How did you come up with this idea?" Li Mo looked at me with an innocent and curious expression.
"Have you ever heard a story? Legend has it that a long, long time ago, the plague god spread the plague to the world through mosquitoes, and at this time there was a fairy with bright eyes and bright teeth, ice muscles and jade bones who came down to the world with an ox cart, and she was the goddess of Qingyu. This is how the goddess used this method to get rid of mosquitoes. She later turned into a miracle doctor to treat diseases in the world, and was taken by the emperor who visited Weifu, and the emperor abandoned the three thousand beauties in the harem for her. However, the goddess's father and mother did not agree with the goddess marrying a mortal, even if the emperor owned the entire country. The goddess was imprisoned in the pagoda of the Nine Heavens, and the emperor did not think about tea and dinner all day long, and died alone. This is something I saw in a notebook before. ā
However, there is indeed such a method in A-Niang's medical book.
I folded my hands together and sighed, "The emperor originally had so many wives, but he didn't want them for the sake of the goddess, this kind of thing should not exist in reality." But, hee-hee, when will I ever meet someone who is only good to me! "I winked at the moon in the sky.
"Why doesn't it exist," Li Mo quietly came in, "Let me tell you, the emperor of the former dynasty of Dahuan is not just an infatuated lover, there is only one Empress Xiao in the harem of the first emperor, and the two only have two heirs, but it is miserable, I heard that they all died later." ā
"How did you die?"
He shook his head and sighed, "I don't know, you better not ask." ā
It sounds like a tragic past, and I shut my mouth.
"That'...... What kind of person was your second brother when he was a child? ā
"My second brother?" He began to say to himself, "The second brother was frail and sickly when he was very young, and he had a lot of pus on his face, so he always wore a veil to meet people, I was only two or three years old at the time, and I can't remember what he looked like at that time." The second brother usually can't eat, and he can't even walk, so he can only sit on a four-wheeled car, and Erniang occasionally pushes him out for a walk. I saw that he liked to read the most on weekdays, so I thought that my second brother would not join the army in the future.
"Unexpectedly, the second brother got smallpox and fell seriously ill, and no one dared to approach. After recovering from the illness, he simply changed as a person, and he didn't have to deal with any etiquette and shooting the imperial book, and his body became extraordinarily strong. Maybe my father thinks that the second brother will have a blessing if he doesn't die, so he takes special care of him in everything. After his father's death, he also handed over a large part of the military power to his second brother.
"Also, my second brother has always done some good things to help the needy, and many girls in Dahuan, even women and grandmothers, like him, if you talk about men, then you must also take him as an example of a good man. Actually, I don't want to be a general, a marching manager, I always want to walk the rivers and lakes and be a hero. ā
He looked at me and asked, "What about you?" ā
I don't overdo it: "I don't want to say it. "I was holding a stick and drawing on the ground. It's not that I don't want to say it, it's that I can't say it, because I don't want to deceive others, but the truth is, I'm here, and it's the biggest lie.
"It's so frustrating. By the way, do you still want to hear about my second brother's past? ā
Li Mo looked at me with a wicked smile, and although I was a little disgusted, I still pursed my lips and nodded.
At this time, a stone was thrown from the black shadow who was sitting and resting by the tree not far away, and it happened to hit Li Mo's head.
He pursed his lips and said with an innocent look of grievance, "I'm going to sleep......" I let out a stupid "oh".
Lying on the ground with his head propped up on his arms, a little prickly. There are so many stars in the sky, Ah Niang said that when people die, they will become those shining stars in the night. Some people have been unjustly killed, so I want to send a little light and heat to those who are carrying the weight in the dark. Some people die naturally when their lives come to an end, but they don't have time to take a look at the rivers and mountains they love, or who they miss deeply, so a thousand words of enthusiasm turn into a morning star waiting for the dawn to rise in the distant galaxy. Which one is my rising star in this vast night sky?
I turned around and saw Li Mo sitting by the tree not far away.
This person even looks so good in the dark.
Round spirit water mirror, faint starlight. There are immortals who step on the moon, the eyebrows are like green daisies, the eyes are like stars, a thought is in love, and then a thought is lost, and there is no other in the world......
......
When I got up the next day, my whole body was sore and my back hurt, my bones seemed to be falling apart, and my buttocks hurt even more.
Before dawn, the army was about to set off, and the dull sound of the trumpet resounded through the sky, shaking the birds in the sky dizzy.
I was so sleepy and tired that Li Yi had led me a docile horse from a soldier, and I sat on the horse, so sleepy that I almost didn't fall. Several people were laughing secretly, and the playful laughter woke me up at once, but after a while I almost fell asleep again.
"You woman is so ugly!" Li Mo dislikes the authentic.
I came to my senses and gave him a vicious look. So we started the big battle of eyebrows.
"The girl is really ghostly, but not as soft and charming as ordinary women." The general beside Li Mo said with a smile on his face.
Looking at his sincere face, I really don't know if this is praising me or saying that I don't have the gentle temperament of the Central Plains woman, so I think it's praising me, I bowed my hand and imitated the Central Plains people to speak: "This general is also shocking, unbearable!" ā
"It'sā" The general gave him an embarrassed look.
Li Mo's hearty and clean laughter sounded like a teenager: "Lao Tai, she is scolding you!" Hahahahaha
I scratched my head and said embarrassedly: "No, no, no, I don't mean to scold you, what I want to say is that you are also a very heroic general." It's not like someone, who only knows how to eat, drink and be merry all day long, and doesn't look like a general at all. ā
"Who are you talking about?" Li Mo puffed up like a pufferfish.
"I'll just say what's wrong with you!" I bared my teeth at him and yelled.
Lao Tai said embarrassedly: "Actually, the manager is not like this, the girl should not judge ...... on the surface"
He said, "Your eyes are black, like white impermanence!" ā
I said, "You have small eyes and big ears, like Zhu Bajie!" ā
And he said, "You are mediocre, and no one marries you!" ā
I said again, "You are so stupid and stupid that no one dares to marry!" ā
Time passed in a noisy and noisy manner. The closer you get, the longer and endless the way you feel. The army walked for days and nights, and I was sometimes so tired that I lay on my horseback, or simply stopped on the side of the road and waited for the last of the army's infantry to catch up before moving forward.
After such a toss, my body really couldn't stand it, and I already looked malnourished, and if it went on like this, I would have no strength at all.
Isn't this just the fact that I just fainted, and when I woke up all of a sudden, I was already sitting on Li Di's sweaty BMW. Pressed against his back was a warm chest, and he sat behind me and pulled the reins, which meant that I had just slept in his arms. In this way, I suddenly opened up my seven orifices, refreshed, and secretly rejoiced in my heart, the flower planted in my heart called joy, constantly absorbing nectar and growing, tickling the tip of my heart.
I pursed my lips and quietly leaned my head back, and the person behind me did not dodge, I began to relax, closed my eyes and slept well, and the uncontrollable smile spread to the corners of my mouth.
Li Mo in the back muttered dissatisfiedly: "It's really for this woman to take advantage of my second brother......"
I cut in my heart.
Sometimes the road was bumpy, and I could feel his chin touching my forehead a few times, so I couldn't sleep well, and I didn't know where to go.
Chen Feng said: "General, there are still more than 30 kilometers to get to Shangdu." General Cai Jing and General Li Nai, who have almost arrived, will be waiting for us to enter the palace together. ā
Li Duo said "um" in a low voice, and I could feel the vibration in his throat.
There are more than thirty kilometers, how long is more than thirty kilometers?
