Chapter 6: The Beginning of Brothers
"The dead old man doesn't know how many buckets of medicine to prepare!" Zilong greeted the bad old man who had disappeared for a long time several times in his heart, and then fell silent on the more than 200,000 taels of silver, although it could not reduce the pain, but at least it could stimulate him to persevere.
An hour later, the red thread on Zilong's body gradually faded, and he once again survived from the ghost gate, and collapsed straight to the ground, and it took a long time to relieve himself.
When I got up and looked into the bathtub, the green color of the medicine had completely receded, replaced by the red stained by the child's blood.
"It's a big life!" Feeling that the child's breath was a little stronger, Zilong felt that he should not be able to die, but he should not wake up so soon.
After moving his body, Zilong picked up a spear next to him and began to practice marksmanship, without too many gorgeous moves, just simple stabbing, picking, sweeping and other basic actions, which are his daily compulsory courses, and he has never fallen behind.
"People and hearts are together, hearts and minds are together, and hearts and guns are together......"
Gradually, he entered a state of selflessness, one person and one shot, which seemed to be natural.
After winning thirty-one games in a row in the Nancheng Arena, Zilong never used a gun, because he felt that those people were not qualified enough to see his marksmanship.
"Mother!" Half an hour later, Zilong was interrupted by an exclamation, and when he looked back, the child in the bucket opened his eyes, his face was pale, his breath floated, and his eyes were full of anxiety and horror.
Zilong put away the gun, shook his head and said, "Nursing children, wake up and know that you are looking for your mother." ”
The child struggled to get up from the bucket, fell several times, and looked around eagerly, despite his naked body, and kept calling out for his mother.
"Your mother isn't here."
"Who are you, where is this, I'm looking for my mother!"
"I still want to ask who you are, little brat, I advise you to stop, otherwise my mother won't find it for a while, and I will be gone first."
The child lost his soul and calmed down for a long time, saying, "Did you save me?" ”
"Sort of, your life will be mine in the future."
"As long as you help me rescue my mother, my life is yours."
"What's your name and who is your mother?"
"My name is Shun, and my mother is from the county guard, and she was locked up by Mrs. Xiao."
"Mrs. Xiao?" The boy rolled his eyes and said, "Gao Jin's mother? ”
"That's right! I don't know what her name is, my mother said she was Mrs. Xiao. At the mention of Gao Jin's mother and son, a flash of resentment flashed in the child's eyes, they had been his and his mother's nightmare for as long as he could remember.
"Little brother, are you mistaken, Mrs. Xiao is the most painful woman in the county guard, and Gao Jin is his most important son, you let me help you go to the county guard mansion to rob people?"
"Help me!" Although the child is young, he also knows that this matter is extremely difficult, or even impossible at all, but he has no choice, and the big boy in front of him, who is not a few years older than him, is the only hope.
"Alas!" The boy patted his head and pondered for a moment before saying, "It's impossible to save people from the county guard's mansion, but I can give you a chance, it's up to you to dare." ”
"What chance?"
"Your own chance to save your mother, your name is Gao Shun, right?"
"My name is Shun!" The little boy had sharp eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.
"I know you don't want to admit that he is your father, but you still have to tie the bell to the bell, if you want to save your mother, if you want to be completely liberated, you must get his approval, otherwise what if you escape from the county guard's mansion? It is not possible to escape from Changshan County. Here, after all, is his territory, you can't go at all, and the Xiao family, where Mrs. Xiao is located, is also very powerful, and it can easily wipe you out, and if you kill it, it will be in vain, and the county guard may not know about it, in fact, he really doesn't seem to know about your existence. ”
"How do you know this?"
"How did I not know, do you know who I am?"
"I don't know."
"Then listen well, I am the first handsome in Changshan, and Zhao Yun is also!" The name Zilong was given by Zhao Yun in order to hide people's eyes, and Zhao Yun is his real name.
"What do you mean by handsome?"
The boy was messy for a while, thinking that the child had not been out of the house since he was born, and this time he was still kicked out, and he was not kicked out of the county guard's mansion, so he forgave his ignorance and said, "In short, you remember, there are thousands of men in this world, and none of them can compare with me." ”
"Oh."
"Having said that, I just happened to hear the old man talk about having such a person as you, and I knew that you were living a miserable life, but when I saw it today, it was really miserable."
"Who's the old man?"
"You don't have to worry about that, you're not a good person anyway."
Gao Shun paused and asked, "What are you doing in the county guard's mansion?" ”
"Ahem." Zhao Yun's expression was a little unnatural, and he coughed and said, "Raising horses, of course, this is only temporary, just like seclusion, understand?" ”
The little boy shook his head, although he didn't understand, but he sounded very powerful, and he admired the big brother in front of him even more.
"Don't talk about that, let's talk about your mother."
Speaking of his mother, Gao Shun burst into tears, and his emotions almost lost control.
"What problems can crying and crying solve, you are not small, you should be sensible."
Gao Shun looked at Zilong and felt that his tone of voice was like that of his mother, and his heart suddenly warmed, and said, "You just said that you would give me a chance to save my mother, is it true?" ”
"Of course it's true, in this world, martial arts are respected, as long as you practice fruitfully, do too high, and fight better than the county guard, who dares to embarrass your mother and son."
There was a hint of yearning in Gao Shun's eyes, and soon it dimmed, and said: "I heard that cultivation requires talent, and I ......"
"Think you can't do it?"
"I'm too weak." The child clenched his fists, although he was reluctant to admit it, but he was indeed much smaller than his peers, and it was too far for him to say that cultivation was too far away.
"It doesn't matter if you're weak, even if you're not a county guard, you're coming out of weakness step by step, the key is whether you have the determination."
"I'm not afraid of death, I'm not afraid of pain, as long as I can save my mother, I'm willing to suffer anything."
"Okay, you can rest here first and recuperate, and then you can recover."
"I'm worried about my mother, and I'll be worried if she can't find me."
"I'll go and see it for you."
Zhao Yun shook his head, and there was a slight wave in his heart, at least the child in front of him still knew who he was and who his parents were, and he had no father or mother, only an unreliable grandfather.
He has been raising horses with his grandfather in the county guard mansion for as long as he can remember, but he doesn't know where he came from, who his parents are, and where his home is. Not only that, but there was always an unknown threat lurking in his body, and from time to time he erupted in severe pain, tormenting his nerves and destroying his vitality, and he had to rely on the herbs that his grandfather got out of nowhere to sustain his life. But even so, he is still very optimistic, has no complaints, does not speak pain, and has a surprisingly good attitude.
When night fell, Zhao Yun drove into the back kitchen, first had a full meal, and then left after picking up a few chickens. In the past few years, he has been doing this kind of thing every day, the county guard has raised so many people, there are too many things to eat in the kitchen, no one will pay attention, and more importantly, no one believes that anyone dares to come here to steal things.
Gao Shun's mother's name is Shujuan, lying in a firewood room at this time, her body is scarred, and she is still shouting "Shun'er" in a coma, her face is full of tears.
"Squeak." When the door of the firewood room was pushed open, Shujuan opened her eyes, suddenly thinking that her son was back, and struggled to get up.
"Shun'er!"
"Junko is fine, it's fine with me, don't worry."
Shujuan saw that it was indeed not his son, and asked, "Are you?" ”
"My name is Zhao Yun, and I'm a friend of Junko."
"Junko's friend?" Shujuan was vigilant, she didn't know her baby, and she didn't know what her friend meant.
Zhao Yun was alert when she saw her, and told her what happened before, and Shujuan believed it, in fact, she had to believe it, and there was no other way.
"Shun'er, how is he?"
"It's okay, I suffered a little injury, it just so happens that I have medicine, it's almost better, he asked me to come over and tell you, so as not to worry you."
"My poor child......" Shujuan wept silently.
"I'll come back to see you when Junko is well." Zhao Yun is also a child after all, and he doesn't know how to comfort him in the face of this situation.
"No, don't come back, let Shun'er go, get out of here."
"Where can I go if I leave? Once caught by Mrs. Xiao, there is a dead end. ”
"Staying is a dead end."
"That's not necessarily, there is always hope in life, in short, Junko's side is okay for the time being, don't think too much, you have been wronged for so long, you might as well wait, maybe there will be a miracle."
"Thank you, please, don't worry, even if it's for Junko, I'll be fine, and I'm going to watch him grow up."
"That's good." Zhao Yun took out a chicken and handed it to her: "Eat something, recover well, you must hold on." ”
Shujuan smelled the fragrance and took a sip of saliva, she hadn't eaten enough for a long time, let alone eaten meat, but she still didn't answer, and said, "I'm not hungry, you can give it to Shun'er." ”
"There's more, you eat it quickly so as not to be discovered, I'll go first."
Shujuan still wanted to speak, Zhao Yun had already left the firewood room, she looked at the roast chicken in front of her blankly, tears welled up again, and muttered: "Will there be hope?" ”
When Zhao Yun returned to his room, Gao Shun, who had fallen asleep, woke up suddenly and hurriedly asked, "How is my mother?" ”
"She's fine, I've told him about your situation, rest assured, come on, eat something." Zhao Yun took out the remaining two chickens and handed one to Gao Shun.
"Mother is still hungry."
"I left one for her, eat it quickly, it's cold."
Early the next morning, Gao Shun got up and went out, and saw Zhao Yun sitting cross-legged in the courtyard, very much like the rumored meditation, he didn't bother, turned his head and saw a spear leaning against the wall on the side, thinking of the appearance of the big brother dancing in front of him yesterday, so majestic, so he walked over and wanted to try.
But what he didn't expect was that no matter how hard he tried, the gun didn't move at all, and he couldn't move a point.
"Buzz!" The spear was suddenly lifted, and Gao Shun raised his eyes to see that a boy who was a head taller than him was grabbing the body of the spear and lifting it, which was extremely light.
"Do you know how much it weighs?" The spear spun around in Zhao Yun's hand, and landed with a "bang", smashing a crack.
Gao Shun shook his head, his eyes full of adoration.
Zhao Yun was very satisfied with his gaze, and said with arrogance: "Two thousand catties." ”
"How much is two thousand pounds?" Gao Shun asked a little confused.
"Ahem." Zhao Yun wiped the corners of his forehead, pretended to be white, and said, "The knife Gao Jin used is only more than three hundred catties, now you understand, right?" ”
