The mother was stunned: "Where to go"
"Don't go anywhere with this kind of liar." Xiao Tao strode angrily, "What are they going to Kaifeng Mansion, not Jinling." What are we going to do in that hellish place. ”
The "Kaifeng Mansion" lady had no idea, so she had to follow Xiao Tao.
Both of them had bad feet and walked very slowly, and the mother sighed: "It's okay to go." I always think those people are weird. Little Peach was so angry that she didn't want to speak. Just walk with a stuffy head. Weird, what's the liar Zhao Zhao, regret not asking his name, I don't know who to scold if I want to scold.
After walking for nearly half an hour, Xiao Tao's anger gradually subsided, but the anger disappeared. Timid again. Looking at the dark sky around him, the two big coffins that he had seen all day seemed to be dangling in front of Xiao Tao's eyes, and Xiao Tao's neck shrank. In fact, you can wait until dawn before leaving, why are you in such a hurry?
"Oops" Mi Niang touched her sleeve, her voice became anxious, "The jade bottle is lost." ”
"Jade bottle" Xiao Tao was stunned. Bird festival garbage.
"It's the jade bottle with the powder. I looked at the workmanship and put it away. Later, when you get to the big market town, you can also go to the pawnshop to exchange a few pennies. The girl's face was a little red, "I was still in that yard just now." ”
Little Peach's heart moved. Pull the young lady and go back: "Then let's go back and find out." "A good man doesn't suffer the loss in front of him, it's so dark, go back and talk about it until dawn. Xiao Tao shrunk her neck as she walked and said, "Okay, I'm looking for a jade bottle for you." Otherwise, I won't go back."
"Yes, yes." The young lady pursed her lips and chuckled.
The two of them walked for more than half an hour and returned to the deserted courtyard. But the scene in the courtyard made them stunned. They had been gone for only an hour, and it was as if it had been washed in blood. A few torches that were still burning illuminated the yard very clearly, there were many people lying horizontally, and there were pools of blood, Xiao Tao was stunned in place, and her feet seemed to be sticky. The person closest to her. She recognized it as the man who drove the carriage during the day. All around, as silent as a tomb.
"Are they dead?" said Momo's voice.
The mother couldn't speak, just held Xiao Tao's hand tightly. The whole body is cold. After a long time, the mother came back to her senses first: "Little Peach, it's not safe here." Let's get out of here. I'm going to find the jade bottle. As he spoke, he let go of the little peach, picked up a torch, and began to search for it on the ground.
Xiao Tao was dumbfounded, and she realized that her mother's courage was really not small, and she was not afraid of the dead. I had to bite the bullet and follow it carefully. The few people who bypassed were all lifeless. Momo's legs trembled. Suddenly, I saw a familiar face. Zhao Gongzi he died
Xiao Tao hurriedly ran over, her heart pounding. Zhao Gongzi's chest was full of blood, Xiao Tao trembled and touched Zhao Gongzi's nose, and there was still breath. Hurriedly shouted to the mother: "Mother, come quickly." ”
The girl ran over with a limp, pulled Xiao Tao and said, "I found the jade bottle." Let's go. ”
"Zhao Gongzi is still angry." Xiao Tao shook Zhao Gongzi vigorously, "Wake up, Zhao Gongzi" said and looked at Qi Niang, "What should we do Ji Niang, do you know how to do it" Xiao Tao saw such a bloody situation for the first time, and said in a panic: "Either you look at him, I will invite Lang Zhong." ”
The young lady waved her hand: "Xiao Tao, we don't know where this is, where to find Lang Zhong, are you very familiar with this Zhao Gongzi, will you still say that he is a liar?"
"A liar is a liar, but you can't help it." Xiao Tao got anxious. Although she has always looked at Zhao Gongzi is not so pleasing to the eye, she has to cover her eyes when she has been slaughtering chickens since she was a child, how can she watch a person die.
When a man is in a hurry, he is not afraid of anything. Xiao Tao saw that there was still blood coming out of Zhao Gongzi's chest, and tore off a piece of clothing from a person next to him, and said to his mother, "You help me help him up." Seeing that Xiao Tao insisted, the two of them had to help Zhao Gongzi's upper body up, and Xiao Tao wrapped Zhao Gongzi's wound with a strip of cloth.
Xiao Tao looked around, saw the water bladder in the afternoon, hurriedly took it and handed it to Zhao Gongzi's mouth, the water flowed down the corner of Zhao Gongzi's lips, and after a while, Zhao Gongzi suddenly moved lightly and opened his eyes. Seeing Xiao Tao, he stretched out his tongue and licked the water on his lips, and Xiao Tao hurriedly handed the water bladder to his mouth again.
Seeing that Zhao Gongzi was sober, Xiao Tao asked in a hurry: "Are you familiar with this place, where is Langzhong, I will invite you." ”
The young lady twisted Xiao Tao, shook her head and signaled Xiao Tao to stop meddling. Xiao Tao didn't react, and continued to look at Zhao Gongzi: "You say, I'll please." ”
Zhao Gongzi stretched out his hand and squeezed Xiao Tao's hand hard, but he didn't have the strength to speak, just shook his head. His hands were cold, like ice. Before her mother died, her hands began to cold, and slowly, her chest became cold. Xiao Tao's heart suddenly ached, and she couldn't care about men and women, Xiao Tao held Zhao Gongzi's hand and rubbed it back and forth, and her mouth couldn't stop chattering: "Don't cool down, when the day dawns, it'll be warm."
The mother couldn't help but twist Xiao Tao again, a little anxious: "Let's go, what if someone comes later"
Xiao Tao was also anxious: "But we can't leave him behind." He's going to die. ”
"Little Peach, the world is very big, and people die every day." Mi Niang has seen too many dead people, and she can't understand Xiao Tao.
Xiao Tao didn't say anything, she said that she couldn't be a mother. But she knew that she couldn't go, and if she left Zhao Gongzi and let him die like this, she would never be at peace for the rest of her life. Maybe she can't help him, but she can't be a person without conscience, and she can't go. The mother talked for a long time, and Xiao Tao only said a hard word: "I can't leave him behind." ”
Seeing that she couldn't convince Xiao Tao, she sighed, so she had to take all the torches around, which was much warmer. Zhao Gongzi's hand gradually became a little warmer. Xiao Tao's heart soothed, and seeing Zhao Gongzi open his eyes from time to time, Xiao Tao chattered: "Don't open your eyes." It's also a lot of effort. If you're bored, I'll tell you. You said that you, on Chinese New Year's Eve, are not staying at home, and you have to run with two coffins, how unlucky. As he spoke, he turned his head to look, but found that the two coffins were missing from the yard.
Xiao Tao didn't care, and continued: "I still have to go to this place where birds don't." If you go to Jinling, won't there be nothing to do? Our Yunwan Village is also lively, early in the morning, the chief of the village took the men in the village to worship the ancestors, and when he came back, there was a sacrificial meat, the meat was so fragrant" Xiao Tao wiped his saliva, and his stomach also growled, "Forget it, I still don't talk about meat, I'll tell you about the chickens in the village that were counted by weasels, and the chicken is also weird and delicious, I'll still talk about the puppy cubs."
The corners of Zhao Gongzi's lips tugged slightly, Xiao Tao didn't see it, and was about to continue chatting, when suddenly there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the door, Zhao Gongzi opened his eyes suddenly, struggling to get up, Xiao Tao turned his head to look at his mother, and his voice trembled: "It's really someone coming" but his hand was still holding Zhao Gongzi's hand tightly.
Before the words fell, dozens of people in armor had already walked in, and there seemed to be many people and horses outside the courtyard. Seeing Zhao Gongzi, he hurriedly ran over and half-knelt and said, "It's too late." ”
Looking at the respectful looks of those people, the fool also knew that it was safe. Xiao Tao patted his chest, and the strings that were stretched all over his body suddenly relaxed, and he did it to the ground. Watching those men carry Zhao Gongzi into the house, he was busy inside and out. Xiao Tao and her mother sat on the torch in the courtyard. With these people, it should be safer here than outside. Xiao Tao discussed it with her mother and decided to wait until dawn before leaving.
Xiao Tao took a nap, and when she woke up again, it was already dark. Xiao Tao saw a man coming out of the house, ran up and asked, "Is Zhao Gongzi okay?"
"It's okay." The man respectfully said to Peach, "Thank you, girl." Childe please. ”
Xiao Tao walked into the house quickly, Zhao Gongzi's complexion was much better, he sat half against a dilapidated bed, saw Xiao Tao come in, pointed to a wooden bench in front of the bed, and motioned for Xiao Tao to sit down.
Xiao Tao didn't sit down: "It seems that you are fine." That's good. I'll just come and tell you, I'm leaving. ”
Zhao Gongzi opened his mouth weakly: "Follow me to Kaifeng Mansion." ”
Xiao Tao's head shook like a rattle, so she didn't go to the Kaifeng Mansion that she had never heard of. Xiao Tao's face was a little red: "I really have relatives in Jinling"
"Alright." Zhao Gongzi slowly raised his hand to interrupt Xiao Tao, paused, took out a jade buckle from his chest and handed it to Xiao Tao, "You take this, if you can't stay in Jinling, come to Kaifeng." ”
Xiao Tao took the jade buckle and looked at it, the color was blue, it was very delicate, and there were some strange patterns carved on the side: "What can this do?"
Zhao Gongzi's smile was a little reluctant, and his fingers tapped lightly on the side of the bed: "What's the use of this, just take this and ask a soldier on the street of Kaifeng Mansion to inquire, and you can find me." ”
"Oh." Xiao Tao nodded, put away the jade buckle, and said to Zhao Gongzi: "Then you can take care of your injuries." Xiao Tao looked at the sun gradually rising outside the house, and was in a hurry to leave, and didn't have the heart to talk to Zhao Gongzi again, "I really have to go." ”
Zhao Gongzi nodded slightly. Xiao Tao felt that he didn't know if it was his delusion or what, since Zhao Gongzi was injured, his expression this morning seemed to be less arrogant and gloomy. It's still cold, though.
Xiao Tao came out of the room, and a man behind him strode over and hugged Xiao Tao: "Girl, the son ordered you to be sent to Jinling." ”
Xiao Tao and Yu Niang glanced at each other, which was an unexpected joy. They were not pretentious and got into the carriage directly.
