Chapter 47: The Danger of War
Xiaobai always looked heartless, full of food, a little bored lying on the table playing with two chopsticks, trying to see if he could put the chopsticks on the table. Zhuang Meiyan sighed deeply, and Xiaobai just raised his head and smiled at her.
"Lady, when are we going home?"
"Tomorrow, let's go again tomorrow, it's dark now, let's stay here for one night with Brother Chu, okay? Zhuang Meiyan said softly, although she knew that there was no need to ask for his fool's opinion on this kind of thing, she still told him out of respect for her wishes.
"Hmm. Xiaobai nodded as if he understood, muttered in a low voice, and said, "That person is so fierce!"
"The lady is good, only the lady is the best. ”
Zhuang Meiyan Wan'er, whoever said that a fool doesn't know whether it's good or bad, whether it's good or bad for him, he still understands it in his heart. She said softly, "How can Brother Chu treat you badly? If you don't treat you well, he won't take us in." ”
"If you're nice to me, you won't ask people to take off my clothes. Xiao Bai pursed his mouth angrily, he was still haunted by the rudeness of the military doctor who had treated him just now.
Zhuang Meiyan couldn't figure out why he held such a grudge on this matter, so he smiled and said, "That's also for your good, isn't this to help you heal your wounds?
Xiaobai stopped talking, just shook his head into a rattle in a huff.
Although Zhuang Meiyan was joking with Xiaobai, she was up and down in her heart, they were locked in the house, and they didn't know what the situation was outside.
Xiaobai was bored in the house, walking around, and finally felt bored, so he said, "Lady, I'm thirsty." ”
Zhuang Meiyan turned to look at the room, this was an empty room, only a rough wooden table was placed in the center of the room, plus a few benches, and a few rusty rotten gun heads were in the corner, obviously this place had been idle for a long time. The food was also brought over by Chu Yifan just now, and there was no tea or anything like that.
Zhuang Meiyan said with some embarrassment: "Xiaobai, bear with it." ”
Xiaobai pursed his lips and said, "Xiaobai is going to die of thirst!"
As he spoke, he walked to the door, and without waiting for Zhuang Meiyan to stop him, he opened the door with a "bang". The soldier guarding the gate remained silent, just stretched out his arm and shouted, "What are you doing?
"Xiaobai is thirsty, Xiaobai wants to drink water. Little White muttered and shouted.
"Go back!" ordered the mountain of soldiers to guard the door like iron towers, without any intention of accommodation.
The soldiers on the watchtower suddenly waved down excitedly and shouted, "Open the door, the Lord Commander is back!"
The large iron gate of the courtyard slammed open, and a group of bloodied warriors returned to the courtyard exhausted, their faces still with the hideous feeling of the moment of battle, their armor covered in the blood of the enemy, exuding the smell of returning from hell. At the end of the procession, there was a man and a horseman, his white robe had been dyed crimson with blood, and he was holding a knife in one hand, the tip of the knife was still thick with blood, which slowly merged into blood droplets and slowly dripped down. The face under the helmet was handsome and solemn, and his eyes were full of murderous intent, like the proud sharpness of an eagle striking the sky and looking down on the earth.
When the soldiers saw Chu Yifan, who had returned last, they immediately waved the weapons in their hands and let out a wild shout.
"Ho!
Although there were only twenty or thirty people gathered at the sentry here, and they suddenly shouted in unison, they had the momentum of a fierce tiger roaring in the mountains and forests, and Zhuang Meiyan's heart was shocked.
As soon as Chu Yifan raised his hand slightly, someone immediately came over to help him lead the horse, and the man wanted to help him down, but he was frightened away by his sharp eyes. Chu Yifan calmly turned over and dismounted, and the big iron gate slowly closed behind him. The military doctor hurriedly went over to help him check the wound, but he waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's a small injury, it's not in the way, you treat the brothers first." Tonight the sentry outside was withdrawn, and all the uninjured went up to patrol the wall, and the archers kept an eye on the point. ”
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
The order was crisp and neat, and immediately people took the order to salute one after another, each performing their own duties. Although there are not many people in Zhuang Meiyanguan, he is disciplined and high-spirited, and he is more imposing than the 180 people in the ordinary military camp.
The crowd listened to the order and acted in silence, except for the crisp sound of weapons hitting armor, and no noise. Suddenly, someone shouted angrily, "Stop!
It turned out that Xiao Bai ran out while the guards were not paying attention, and caught and sought with the guards in the yard, he was a head shorter than the guards, and his body was also clever, the guards couldn't catch him, he pounced a few times, and saw Xiao Bai grinning and grinning even more angry, so he scolded loudly.
People were stunned for a moment, and then went back to their own things.
Xiaobai walked through the crowd, and finally cleverly hid behind Chu Yifan, the soldiers did not dare to make a mistake, hung their heads and stood still, and hesitated: "Lord Commander, subordinates are derelict in their duties, please punish them!"
Chu Yifan pursed his mouth and said, "Write it down for the time being, go patrol the wall, and live well tonight." ”
Zhuang Meiyan walked slowly and said, "Brother Chu, your injury--"
Chu Yifan glanced at her, shook his head imperceptibly, but smiled in his mouth: "It's not in the way." ”
Chu Yifan sat facing everyone, Zhuang Meiyan stood behind him, and caught a glimpse of half of his body stained with blood, and it was still oozing, and he couldn't help blurting out secretly worried. Seeing that his eyes signaled, Zhuang Meiyan was also a clever person, so he changed his words and said: "Brother military doctor is too busy, Brother Chu, you might as well go into the house and help you wrap it." ”
The crowd erupted in trivial boos, and the men had a wild evil smile on their faces.
Chu Yifan scolded with a smile.
"Monkey cubs, keep an eye on me!"
Then he turned around and went into the house.
As soon as he entered the room, Chu Yifan couldn't hold it anymore, and he struggled to hold on to the corner of the table and ordered in a low voice: "Hurry up!"
Zhuang Meiyan didn't dare to slack off, and quickly closed the door, still hearing the voice of the soldiers teasing Xiaobai outside the door, and said: "You stupid boy, you picked up a virtuous lady for nothing, it's really stupid and stupid." ”
Zhuang Meiyan closed the door, and when she turned around, she saw that Chu Yifan was already a little unable to hold on, sitting next to the table, her teeth clenched. Taking off his white battle robe, Zhuang Meiyan was shocked, only to see that his right shoulder was pierced by a sharp arrow, and the tip of the arrow was exposed on his back, and the blood that continued to ooze from behind him was flowing down from the tip of the arrow, dripping on the golden close-fitting chain mail, which was particularly shocking.
Zhuang Meiyan clenched her mouth tightly, and her face turned pale. Chu Yifan hurriedly ordered: "Come and help me unbuckle the armor." ”
Zhuang Meiyan came back to her senses and trembled to help him remove the chain mail.
"How is this good? I called the medic in. ”
"Don't be silent!" Chu Yifan quickly pulled her and said in a low voice: "There will be a fierce battle later, you listen to me, I will let my personal soldiers escort you out of here, be careful." ”
Zhuang Meiyan was grateful in her heart, she didn't know what to say, she knew that she and Xiaobai would not play a role at this moment, but would distract Brother Chu, so she nodded immediately.
Chu Yifan glanced at her, sighed slightly, and ordered, "Nusting Miss Laozhuang to help me tie the wound tightly." ”
Zhuang Meiyan was puzzled.
"But shouldn't the cluster of arrows be removed?"
Chu Yifan smiled bitterly: "It's time to take it out - you don't care so much, just ask me to do it." ”
Zhuang Meiyan didn't know that once the arrow cluster was taken out, the blood would flow more, and the pain would be doubled, Chu Yifan would have to go into battle to kill the enemy later, he was afraid of disturbing the army's heart, so he didn't say a word, and only asked Zhuang Meiyan to help him deal with it.
Zhuang Meiyan did as he said. The wound was painful, the handsome face twitched slightly, and the table flute was for him to break off a piece of scrap.
As soon as the wound was wrapped, Chu Yifan shouted: "Someone!"
A tall and thin soldier guarding the door entered in response, and as soon as he clenched his fists, he saw the white cloth that had just been bandaged on Chu Yifan's shoulder, and hesitated slightly: "Brother Chu, are you okay?"
Chu Yifan put on his battle robe neatly, his movements did not stop, and he didn't look like he had been seriously injured at all, and at the end, he swung his fist and slapped the man's shoulder fiercely, and said with a smile: "Do I look like I have something?" ”
Chu Yifan grabbed the man's shoulders and whispered a few words, the two of them looked back at Zhuang Meiyan one after another, the thin and tall man had a strange expression, and the two of them turned around and discussed in a low voice.
Zhuang Meiyan knew that they were discussing how to escort herself and Xiaobai out, and she couldn't help but apologize when she thought that she had caused a lot of trouble to others.
