Chapter 32: Situation
“…… Feng Laosi suddenly drew the knife of the big tiger next to him and slashed at me, and the ninth master blocked it with his shoulder, and only then did he save me! Ah Sen cried while wiping the tears that seemed to never be wiped away with the back of his hand, "I knew that this was the case, when Feng Laosi caught me, I should have bitten him, he would definitely kill me in a fit of anger......"
"What nonsense!" Fu Tingyun scolded him in a low voice, and at the same time carefully lifted the placket on the right side of Zhao Jiuye's clothes, "Since Jiu Ye is willing to use his body to help you block the knife, he treats you as a brother-in-law." How can you say such a thing? Didn't the Ninth Master help you block the knife for nothing? How uncomfortable it should be for you to let the Ninth Master hear it! After speaking, I couldn't help but gasp.
Zhao Jiuye's right shoulder was wrapped around several cloth bands that were obviously torn from old clothes, and the blood had soaked all the cloth belts, staining the clothes.
No wonder he was wearing a dark robe.
Fu Tingyun's heart is like a knife.
No wonder he was pale and gulped water.
He didn't feel well when he was at the City God Temple, right?
He also gave her a dagger to defend herself.
He should have felt that his injuries were serious at that time, and he was afraid that he would not be able to reach Xi'an Mansion smoothly, so he did that, right?
She rejected his kindness and put all the responsibility of guarding on to him...... It's a pity that she also sat on the small cart because of her petty temperament...... The cart had to be pushed with arm strength, and he was injured in the shoulder...... He usually never let her walk, but since then, she has to go down to the ground to walk, but he never stops her, because the wound is too painful!
Fu Tingyun was remorseful and hateful.
I regret that I was too careless and hate myself for being pampered and willful.
Tears blurred her vision.
Now that he was injured and unconscious, it was up to her to protect him, just as he had done before.
Although I thought so, I understood in my heart the disparity in strength between the two.
What to do?
How could she get a doctor to help him see him? How can you get him out of here? How can I get to Xi'an Mansion smoothly?
Fu Tingyun felt that his legs were weak when he thought about it.
No matter what, we can't let him lose his life here!
He is so young and has a great future ahead of him......
She remembered what happened to her uncle's family.
Maybe the two nephews of the eldest cousin's family can be nominated as champions on the gold list when they grow up, and they will become famous ministers in the cabinet, but all this has come to naught because of the untimely death of the two children......
She can't let his future be ruined here!
Fu Tingyun wiped her tears vigorously.
She shouted "Ah Sen": "I see that Jiu Ye and you are very familiar with this area, do you know where the nearest town is here?" ”
"Girl, what are you going to do?" Ah Sen's eyes were red, "It's a disaster year, and those towns are only afraid that there are homeless people everywhere, and there are idle gangs who specialize in bullying outsiders." We don't have the protection of the Ninth Master, even if those homeless people don't rob us, those idle gangs won't let us go! ”
"I know!" Fu Tingyun said, "But there are towns and doctors." Anyway, we have to go and see it, we can't stay here forever, right? The noon sun is so hot, there is not even a place to shade the sun, Jiu Ye is so sunny, I am afraid that he will be dehydrated. If a homeless person passes by and encounters that vicious person, it will not rob us as well. Besides, I wasn't ready to go into town at all. ”
Asen looked at her puzzled.
"Since those homeless people will run to the town to beg, then there must be no one to rest in the City God Temple." Fu Tingyun told Ah Sen about his plan, "When the time comes, the Ninth Master and I will go to the City God Temple to settle down, and you go to the town to see if you can invite a doctor." If you can invite a doctor, if not, you can go to Xi'an Mansion - Xi'an Mansion is only two days away from here, and your Brother Yucheng and Brother Yuanbao should be in Xi'an Mansion, right? Instead of us dragging the Ninth Master to Xi'an Mansion with an unknown future, it is better to ask your Brother Yucheng and Brother Yuanbao to pick up the Ninth Master......"
Larger villages will build city god temples, let alone towns.
Before she finished her words, Ah Sen had already jumped up excitedly: "Oops, how did I forget Brother Yucheng and Brother Yuanbao!" Girl, that's a good idea. When the time came, we rode over and arrived in Xi'an Mansion in one day's work. He added, "I know that there is a Linchun town more than 30 miles away from here, which is the only place for Xi'an to lead to Lantian County, and I don't know if there is a doctor, but we know that there is a city god temple at the east end of the town." ”
Fu Tingyun perked up when he listened: "Do you still recognize the road?" ”
"Recognize!" Ah Sen said, "I once went to the third master once. ”
"That's good!" Fu Tingyun stood up, "Let's go to Linchun Town." ”
Arsen nodded vigorously.
The two worked together to lift Zhao Jiuye into the small cart, one supported the cart, the other pushed the cart, crookedly, walking and stopping, until it was dark before arriving in Linchun Town.
During this period, Fu Tingyun fed Zhao Jiuye water three times, and the last time, Zhao Jiuye asked them where they were going in a daze.
"Go to Linchun Town," she said, "and I heard from Asen that it's very prosperous, and maybe you can find a doctor." ”
Zhao Jiuye didn't say anything, tilted his head and fell asleep again, and he didn't know whether he agreed with her choice, or if he didn't hear what she was saying at all.
※※※※※
The City God Temple at the east end of Linchun Town is not big, and there are five or six side rooms behind the main hall of the three rooms.
When they entered, there was only one man in the main hall of the City God Temple, he was squatting in the southwest corner, he was cooking something in an iron pot with three stones, the fire reflected his face full of horizontal meat, looking fierce and fierce, seeing them come in, he just looked up lightly, and continued to lower his head to look at the contents of the pot.
Fu Tingyun felt that the atmosphere in this temple was very strange.
She glanced at the hall quickly.
In contrast, it was fairly clean, as if people often lived here.
How can there be only one person?
She glanced at Asen, and saw that Asen's expression was also a little uneasy.
"What do you see?" Fu Tingyun asked him quietly.
"It's weird." Arsen whispered, "Why is there only one person?" ”
And she thought of a piece.
Ah Sen glanced at the man with a meaty face, and said, "I remember that there are a few wings in the back, why don't we settle down in the wings?" There's only one place to get in and out, and it's easier to guard. ”
If the seventh master is here, of course Fu Tingyun has no objection, but it is Ah Sen...... Not only was he a child, but he also had wounds on his body. If there is really a master rushing in, such as the guy with a meaty face, it is a turtle in an urn!
"Let's rest in the forest outside the City God Temple!" Fu Tingyun said, "Although the trees in the forest are all dead, there is a place to shelter them......
As she spoke, someone shouted outside the temple gate, "Is there anyone inside?" With a shout, a tall man walked in.
He was about twenty-seven or eight years old, fair-skinned and well-looking, wearing a straight silk cocoon that was too dark to see the color, and a belt, neat and neat, looking a bit like the shopkeeper in the shop.
Seeing the scene in the hall, he was also a little surprised. After being slightly stunned, he arched his hand towards Fu Tingyun and them, and said with a smile: "Please make it convenient for you to go out, we want to spend the night here." ”
Fu Tingyun himself hasn't made up his mind yet, of course he doesn't speak, the strange thing is that no one squeaks when he is a person with a full face, and the atmosphere is even more weird.
But the man didn't care, turned and said a word outside the door of the temple, and three men walked in.
They were all in their early twenties, one was burly, sharp-eyed, and pushed a small cart with miscellaneous items; A medium stature, although ordinary in appearance, has a free and easy temperament, and is empty-handed; A clear-eyed and beautiful look kind and friendly, carrying a burden. They were all dressed in cocooned silk and tied with belts.
The burly man entered the hall and said, "This place is good." "The sound was loud and deafening.
Ah Sen suddenly approached Fu Tingyun and whispered, "Girl, this person is a Lian family." ”
Fu Tingyun's scalp was a little numb, and the burly man had already arched his hand to her: "This girl, there are many of us, and we want to rest in the northwest corner, I don't know if the girl can do it conveniently!" ”
Only then did Fu Tingyun realize that the position he was standing in was blocking their place.
She hurriedly bowed her head and stepped aside.
Several people walked past her.
The shopkeeper-like man and the burly man glanced at Zhao Jiuye lying on the cart with some curiosity, while the eyes of the medium-sized man stayed on Fu Tingyun for a long time, and the man with clear eyebrows first looked at Zhao Jiuye with the burly man, and saw the medium-sized man looking at Fu Tingyun, and then looked at Fu Tingyun.
"Girl," said Arsen, like a gnat, "why don't you stay in the temple?" I don't think those four people are bad people, so I'll go to town and be back in half an hour at most. ”
In places with a lot of people, there is usually a sense of security multiplied.
Fu Tingyun is no exception.
She looked at the dark shadow outside the hall and nodded: "Then you go early and come back early!" ”
Assen responded.
Fu Tingyun thought about it and chose a location far away from the southeast corner of the two men.
laid out the straw mat, and together with Ah Sen, he lifted Zhao Jiuye on the mat, and blocked the small cart in front of him, surrounding their resting place into a dead end, Ah Sen went to the town, Fu Tingyun took out the dagger and put it under the straw mat, and quietly shouted Jiu Ye: "...... Drink some water! ”
Zhao Jiuye opened his eyes, his eyes were confused, he shook his head in a daze, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
She trembled in her heart, and touched his forehead regardless of the defense of men and women.
Hot!
Fu Tingyun got anxious, wet the handkerchief to help him wipe his forehead, and vigorously recalled how the nurse took care of her when she was a child when she was suffering from the wind and cold.
It's a good idea to wash your shoulders with salt water and then re-bandage them.
But she wouldn't be able to bandage them, and she didn't dare to touch those cloth belts.
If Zhao Jiuye can wake up, even if it's only for a while, just tell her how to wrap the cloth belt!
She twisted a handkerchief and put it back on his forehead.
There was a commotion.
The man in the northwest corner had already packed up his bed, and when he heard the movement, he looked out of the temple door.
The man standing in the northwest corner didn't lift his head.
The noise was getting closer, there were men's laughter and swearing, and women's screams and cries.
Torches lit up the sky.
Fu Tingyun thought of the scene when Feng Siye appeared that day.
She looked tight and held the dagger in her hand.
