Southwest Wind and Cloud Five Thorny Orchid
A few days later, inside a suburban dwelling.
Bright sunlight poured through the window on the bed, and the people on the bed squinted slightly and looked around.
When the man saw that there was no one in the room, he got up with difficulty, picked up the long sword beside the bed and went to the ground, but he accidentally pulled the wound, grinning in pain, and the sackcloth that tied the wound on his right shoulder was suddenly infiltrated with blood, and his pale face was covered with beads of sweat.
This person is Yi Tianhang, Yi Tianhang looked around the house, and saw that the house was quite clean, and there were a bunch of bottles and cans on the log table in the room, which should be used to treat wounds and stop bleeding, and a bowl of soup, thinking that someone had fed him when he was unconscious.
On the wooden bench beside him were his night clothes and the two bags of silver, at this time he was naked, and his wounds had been carefully bandaged, but he had just gotten out of bed and was torn apart by him.
"Squeak", the door was pushed open, it was a woman in a white dress and a plain skirt, holding a basin of water, although it was a farmer's dress, but it was bright eyes and bright teeth, and she was the benefactor of the country.
Yi Tianhang didn't dare to look directly, so he bowed down and thanked: "Thank you Mrs. for the rescue, the grace of saving your life is unforgettable." ”
"Stinky boy, what are you messing around, look, the wound is cracked again, this woman has just cleaned up, don't move, don't make my room full of blood!"
Yi Tianhang raised his head when he heard this, and carefully looked at the woman in front of him, with a tall and graceful posture, a pair of phoenix eyes sultry, isn't it the woman in black?
"Is that you?" Yi Tianhang blurted out.
"Stinky boy, where does this woman look like a lady? I am so young and beautiful, how did I become a lady? The woman looked displeased.
"Ahem, I'm gaffe." Yitianhang was favored by others, and he was speechless for a while.
The woman put down the basin of warm water, looked at Yi Tianhang in a circle, and said: "The kid's life is really big, he has lost so much blood, his wound is inflamed and infected, he is hot and babbling, and he has been in a coma for many days and will not die." ”
"Ahem, thank you for saving your life." Yi Tianhang didn't know what to say, so he had to thank him again.
"Well, of course you have to thank me, the crossbow arrows in the army have always been coated with 'gold juice' and other filth/things, if I hadn't dealt with it in time, you would have contracted a vicious disease and died." The woman picked up a bag of silver on a wooden stool and said as she weighed it.
Yi Tianhang has never received such a great kindness, and at this time it is like a lump of wood: "Dare to ask the name of the woman, and I will repay it in the future." ”
"You kid doesn't know how to be polite, why do you ask the girl's name like this, seeing that you are not very old, I don't bother to worry about you, remember carefully, this woman's surname is Yu and asks Lan, when you want to repay the favor in the future, don't admit it, these five hundred taels of silver should be used as the cost of the soup and medicine for these days." Although this woman spoke coldly to Yi Tianhang, she finally saved Yi Tianhang's life.
"Don't worry, don't worry, in the next promise, there is a sound of smashing the ground." Yi Tianhang replied seriously.
The woman burst out laughing: "There is still a sound of smashing the ground, gurgling, okay, you also know my name, but I only know your name but not your surname, how to find you in case I use you in the future." ”
"In the next surname Yi, Yi Tianhang, and the teacher have been in this Jiawu City for the past few years."
"Well, a good name, don't be a heroine in the future, old-fashioned, in the future, you will call me to ask Sister Lan, call yourself the little brother, I don't know where your confused master has gone." The woman opened the linen cloth on Yi Tianhang's right shoulder as she spoke, and examined the wound.
Yi Tianhang was inexplicably nervous, and the pestle didn't dare to move.
"It's like a piece of wood, nervous, sit down! Clean the wound. The woman pointed to the table and stool.
"Master? Don't worry, with his old man's ability, I'm afraid that he has been looking for me for a long time, and he should have seen that I was injured and someone took care of me, so he didn't bother to show up, and he hid quietly. Yi Tianhang casually replied to relieve the embarrassment, but he smelled the fragrance behind him.
The smell of this woman's body can be described as a dark fragrance and a quiet orchid, and Tianhang couldn't help but take a few deep breaths.
"This girl is worried that the unserious old man will do something to Hanako, but in a few days I will leave for the Central Plains, leaving you here alone, what if you die again? Won't it be in vain that I have been working for a few days? Yu Wenlan said.
"Life and death are fate, destiny is coming, my heart is at peace, why should you worry more." Yitianhang was already a little incoherent and tense.
Although this young man has experienced life and death repeatedly, he has never had such close contact with a woman, even to play with Wu Ziyan, and to abide by etiquette.
"Life and death? You still make a living by hunting down bandits and hunting rogues, what do you believe in life and death, these four words are worthy of these scars on your body? Yu Wenlan sneered.
That night a few days ago, Yu Wenlan couldn't bear it, rescued Yi Tianhang, and stripped him to treat his injuries, but was shocked by the scars on Yi Tianhang's body.
Yi Tianhang has been successful in learning since he was twelve or thirteen years old, and he followed his master to this land, and since then he has begun to hunt and kill the Liukou, the young man, and the adult thief must be at a loss, and the knife wounds and sword wounds all over the body are marks.
"How do you know I'm hunting down bandits all year round?" Yi Tianhang asked.
"What are you? Shout out to Sister Lan! Sister, I save people, I always have to know who I am saving, right? There are eyes and mouths, and you will know after a little inquiry. Yu Wenlan replied while applying medicine to Yi Tianhang's wound.
Yi Tianhang endured the pain and remained silent.
"You are not very old, but the tenacity of this heart is different from ordinary people, not like a teenager, but like a soldier who is accustomed to seeing life and death, it seems that your confused master is not very good to you."
Yu Wenlan looked at Yi Tianhang, who was covered with scars, and knew that most of the rogue bandits over the years were faced by this kid alone, if the old man called Huazi to make a move, why did it matter, the two hands exposed by the old man outside the broken temple were definitely masters.
"Master, Master treats me well, it's always good to fight with people more." Yitianhang has never spoken much, but at this time he actually chatted with this woman's words.
"Where's the good? Killing people is like hemp, tempering the heart? Yu Wenlan said disdainfully.
"Master said that people who usually practice martial arts often fight with dead objects such as wooden stakes, even if they fight with people, they are only between the same door, and finally they have learned kung fu, but they don't know how to be flexible. If you want to truly use the martial arts you have learned, you can only experience more life and death battles and turn the death moves into your own living moves, otherwise you just learn the moves and routines to strengthen your body. Yi Tianhang replied honestly.
"Heh, your master has some opinions." Yu Wenlan was thoughtful.
"This unicorn tattoo under your left shoulder is really good-looking." Yu Wenlan said suddenly.
"Huh? Well. Yi Tianhang looked nervous when he heard this.
"It's just that this unicorn doesn't have the charm of a rui beast, but it looks like a fierce beast, with an arrogant posture of vertical and horizontal eyes, but it is quite similar to you." Yu Wenlan looked at Yi Tianhang's back and said.
Yi Tianhang seemed to have been punctured by someone, and he didn't know how to reply for a while.
"Don't you wonder what the situation is like in the city these days?" Yu Wenlan asked again while treating Yi Tianhang's wounds.
"How's it going?" Yi Tianhang saw that Yu Wenlan did not continue to talk about the unicorn tattoo, and replied with a sigh of relief.
"On the second day, the city was blown up, but fortunately, there was a Shu army stationed here, and there was no chaos. On the fourth day, the people of the Southwest Administration Department arrived, and two local officials died, and the Southern Qi court must investigate thoroughly, but it has not yet found out a result, only that it is a big robbery and robbery, and because of the uneven distribution of spoils, they fought in the broken temple. ”
"Well, it's fine."
"Okay? Some people learned that the city guard and the captain were dead, and went straight to the government department to denounce the crime, Wu Chengshou and Zhao Duwei were guilty of embezzlement and bribery, reckless disregard for people's lives, and taking people's property. ”
"What?! Raiding the house? Yi Tianhang's body shook when he heard this, but he remembered Wu Ziyan, the daughter of the city guard.
Yu Wenlan was concentrating on applying medicine to Yi Tianhang, slapped Yi Tianhang on the left shoulder, and blamed: "What are you messing with, scare the old lady!" ”
The woman was frightened and said that she was an old lady, she came back to her senses, smiled, and slapped it again, and hit it in the clouds.
If others see these two people, they think they are close sisters and brothers, which is like strangers who have just met.
"Ask, ask Sister Lan, is that smoke safe?" Yi Tianhang asked worriedly.
"Hmph, do you remember now? It's okay if you have affection and righteousness. The precious daughter of Wu Chengshou didn't report you, but she disappeared, and some people said that she left with the old servant in the house. Yu Wenlan replied.
"Missing? Let's go? Yi Tianhang was slightly disappointed, and then said calmly: "It's good to be alive." ”
A few days later, the wine shop was elegantly idle.
A man and a woman pushed the door open.
The man's feet are in ink-colored cloud boots, a navy blue suit, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, heroic and extraordinary, but his face is still a little childish, what is striking is that the black hair is braided into more than a dozen pigtails tied behind his head, and his temples are shaved short, although he is like a barbarian, he is extremely spiritual.
The woman's hair is high, she is dressed in white, and the fine white silk and satin material are cut decently, showing the beauty of her figure, and her skin is like clotted fat, with willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, red lips and bright teeth, and the end is stunning and beautiful, which attracts the eyes of all the drinkers in the store.
The shopkeeper was stunned and recognized the person, and just shouted "Brother Tianhang", but it was a smear of blood between his nose and lips, and he hurriedly ran to the back of the cabinet.
This pair of men and women is Yi Tianhang and Yu Wenlan, Yi Tianhang's injuries are good, and he came to find his master today.
The shopkeeper trotted over to greet the guests in person, but saw this handsome man and girl walking to the couch by the window, and sat down at the desk of the old man named Hanako.
"Stinky boy, finally remembered Master? The old man thought that you kid nephrite was warm and fragrant, and he had forgotten about me, an old man. "I didn't raise my head when I called Hanako, so I knew who it was.
"It's not serious, and there's no way to speak." Yu Wenlan glanced at the old man.
"Alas, the old man has to meet a fairy-like beauty, but he is the first to be taken by the criminals, isn't he short of breath for a while? What can you do with this complaint? Although the old man sighed with a sigh, the old face was full of joy.
"I don't fix it." Yu Wenlan didn't bother to deal with him anymore, and the shopkeeper happened to send the dishes and chopsticks and wine glasses, and the woman only poured a glass of wine by herself.
"Master, these days the apprentices have been taking care of all the disciples by asking and asking Sister Lan, how can it be so unbearable as you say." Yi Tianhang said.
"Huh? What's your hair? The old man raised his eyes and saw Yi Tianhang's pigtails.
"This girl takes care of it herself, how is it?" Yu Wenlan glanced at the old man again.
"Spirit, quite spirited." The old man lowered his head and took a sip of wine, glanced at the cloth bag on Yu Wenlan's waist, and the iron claws were in it, and the old man stopped talking.
After a while, the old man said to Yi Tianhang: "Hang'er, you and I have been here for a few years, and the experience of you has ended here, although you still have some women's kindness, but how can the eldest husband be ruthless and unrighteous in the world?" Now that the intention of killing has been accomplished, it is time to continue to devote himself to practice. ”
"Yes, everything is arranged by the master." Yi Tianhang replied, he knew that the woman's benevolence that the master said meant that Wu Ziyan was alive.
"Hmph, stinky old man, don't you just want your precious apprentice to be with me? This girl is not rare, these Japanese girls are going back to the Central Plains. Yu asked Lan how smart she was, and she instantly knew the meaning of the old man's words.
The old man was broken, and he was not annoyed, only a mouthful of mutton, a mouthful of garlic, and a sip of wine, which was extremely pleasant.
Yu asked Lan about to say something more, but saw a young man in purple break in.
"Senior sister, you really make it easy for me to find, Master has an order, come back quickly, the Kongtong faction will come to the door to worship the mountain soon!" The purple-clothed young man ran to Yu Wenlan and said.
Yu Wenlan waved her hand when she heard this, drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, put her red lips to Yi Tianhang's cheek and said: "Boy, don't forget, you owe my sister a life, if this old man dies, you can come to the Central Plains Three Peerless Gate to find me." So saying, he got up and strode away.
These days, Yi Tianhang and this woman get along day and night, and there is already a trace of inexplicable affection between the two, but the age difference is five or six years old, and Yi Tianhang is a half-grown child, so he doesn't think about it.
Yi Tianhang was flushed by the breath of Rulan, and when he saw that the woman had arrived at the door, he hurriedly got up and said: "I dare not forget the grace of saving my life, this is a long way to the Central Plains... Treasure. ”
Yu Wenlan only stopped a little when she heard this, and then left with the purple-clothed young man.
"The Three Absolute Gates, the week before the fall of the Ji Clan, the head of the Three Absolute Sects was a pioneer." The old man seemed to be talking to himself, and it seemed to be talking to Yi Tianhang.
