Chapter Seventy-Nine: Baling's Adventure
The scribe said: "Since your disappearance, rumors have been everywhere in the rivers and lakes, some say that you have fled to the desert outside the Saiwai, some say that you have disguised yourself and hidden, and some say that you are dead, but they don't want you to hide here. ”
Ye Suiyun said: "I live in the mountains and forests, aiming to avoid the pursuit of the gods and bad guys, but I am not afraid of any wanted. Unexpectedly, after more than a month in the mountains, the world has been turned upside down outside. The scribe asked carefully, and Ye Suiyun recounted the situation of that night in detail.
After hearing this, the scribe suddenly said: "I see, who would have thought that it was actually done by the Shence Army." He looked at Ye Suiyun again and said, "Now whether it is the imperial court or the martial arts, both black and white have issued a wanted death order for you, and your name has long been heard by the whole world at this time, even the three-year-old children of ordinary people will cry when they hear your name." It's really thunderous. ”
Ye Suiyun smiled bitterly again, and said: "The younger generation has inherited the teachings of his grandmother since he was a child, and he never dared to deliberately hurt others. In case of trouble, he adhered to the heart of benevolence and righteousness, tried his best to be good, but under the ridiculous mistakes, he ended up infamous in the end, which was really providential. "Speaking of which, my mood is extremely low.
The scribe Sizhi shook his head again and again, and said, "It's not providential, it's man-made." Ye Suiyun was surprised, and the scribe said: "If there is no big man behind the scenes, how can Shence have such great courage." It's just that they didn't expect you to escape. ”
Ye Suiyun still didn't know why, and asked, "Sir, are you saying that there are big people in the court who want to deal with me?" The scribe nodded, Ye Suiyun was even more puzzled, and said: "I'm just a mountain boy, I have never been to Beijing, and the biggest official I have ever seen is the village chief of Xiaozheng Village in my hometown, not to mention what big people can offend, why... ”。
The scribe said, "To offend a person, you don't have to meet each other. He stood up and walked slowly, and continued: "Maybe your presence has disrupted some people's plans, and they didn't pay much attention to it at first, so they arranged a trap in Yangzhou to solve you. But later developments made them realize that you had become a big trouble, so they were arrested by the imperial court, so that you could not avoid it, and planned to take you back to Beijing for trial, but they didn't know what happened on the way, they changed their minds and decided to kill you halfway. Jin Wuwei is only implicated by you, not the main target. ”
Combined with his own experience, Ye Suiyun's heart gradually brightened, and he felt that this analysis was reasonable, and that was what it was. No wonder when I was in Yangzhou, I had a feeling of being calculated in the palm of my hand. He asked anxiously, "Does that gentleman know who is going to deal with me?" The scribe shook his head and said: "It's hard to say now, but I think he can deceive the emperor, mobilize the forbidden army of the palace, and order the criminal department, he must be a person with a very high status." Ye Suiyun was even more worried after hearing this.
The scribe secretly thought that although this young man was strong in martial arts, he had no city in his mind and was still shallow, so how could he defeat the dangerous secret arrow calculations of others, but it was difficult for him. Seeing that Ye Suiyun's face was depressed, in order to make him think about it, he took out the flute and said, "You and I are destined to meet, and when we leave, I will give you this flute." ”
Ye Suiyun waved his hand again and again: "I can't help it, how can I ask for Mr.'s things." The scribe said, "Even if you make me a friend, take it." Ye Suiyun saw that he insisted, and he couldn't bear to fight each other, and he really liked this flute, so he took it happily and rubbed it back and forth in his hand.
The scribe said, "I still have important business to deal with, little brother, and I will take my leave." Ye Suiyun was very grateful for his guidance and gifts, and seeing that his words were quite melancholy, he asked: "Dare to ask what Mr. said, can the younger generation help?" ”
The scribe hesitated slightly, and said: "It doesn't hurt to tell you, the cause of the matter is that the emperor's fiftieth birthday is approaching, and he sent someone to welcome the Buddha bone relics of Famen Temple into Beijing to pray for blessings. ”
Ye Suiyun asked, "What is the Buddha bone relic?" Is it important? ”
The scribe nodded and said: "Yes, this relic is a sacred relic of Buddhism, and the imperial court attaches great importance to it. When the court surrendered, I was afraid that this time Li Chengen would be implicated and severely punished. Ye Suiyun thought that Li Chengen was not Leng Xiaoxiao's father-in-law, and he didn't know if Leng Xiaoxiao would be implicated.
Seeing that he was in a daze, the scribe said, "Thank you, little brother, for your help, but now you yourself are also in trouble, so don't let it go." After saying that, he was on tiptoe, and he had already jumped away, and it was actually an excellent light skill.
Ye Suiyun reacted, and hurriedly shouted and asked, "May I ask Mr. Gao's surname?" The man's voice came back from afar: "My surname is Zhang." After the last word was spoken, the man was far away.
Ye Suiyun knew at this moment that the surname of this person who had been talking with him for a long time was Zhang, but he didn't know what his name was. Seeing that it was getting late, he suddenly remembered that he had been away for a long time, Tang Xiao was afraid that he was going to die in a hurry, so he hurriedly spread his legs and ran back. When I arrived at the three ancient trees, I saw that Tang Xiaozheng was full of anxiety, and his tears had not dried, so he was afraid that he had cried a few times in the morning. Ye Suiyun apologized again and again, and told the truth of the matter, Tang Xiao listened to it, and ignored him in anger, Ye Suiyun knew that he was at a loss, and he didn't dare to make a sound.
The next day, Tang Xiao was going to pick wild fruits, Ye Suiyun followed closely, Tang Xiao said coldly: "What are you doing with me." Ye Suiyun said: "Of course you have to follow, so that you can always see me, and you won't be worried." Tang Xiao saw that his face was full of apologies, very pitiful, and couldn't help but laugh out, Ye Suiyun saw her happy, obviously no longer angry, took out the flute given by the scribe and blew it, and turned around Tang Xiao at one side, the flute sound was light and joyful, and the sullenness in Tang Xiao's heart for a day and night also dissipated without a trace, and the two finally reconciled.
In the first few days, Ye Suiyun often thought of Dai Shi when she was alone, and always thought about how good it would be if she was around. The strange thing is that as he and Tang Xiao grow together, the figure of Dai Shi appears less and less in his mind, and sometimes when he thinks of it in his dreams, Tang Xiao's face also appears, and the two of them look at him left and right. At this time, Ye Suiyun's heart was like numbness, contradictory, panicked, anxious, and reluctant, with mixed tastes, constantly hitting his thoughts. When I woke up, I was amnesty, and after thinking about it, I didn't understand what was going on, so I had to comfort myself that there were many difficulties in front of me, and I didn't think much about anything else.
On this day, Ye Suiyun went to the stream to fill the water, Tang Xiao waited left and right on the tree, and did not see him turn back for a long time, suddenly had a sense of foreboding, and hurriedly ran to the stream, and saw Ye Suiyun fall to the water kuma, half of his arm was still shaking with the water flow. Tang Xiao was shocked, and hurriedly helped him up, drenched his face with water, and slapped him again and again, but Ye Suiyun just didn't wake up. When I looked closely, I saw that his breath was even, his pulse was stable, and there were no signs of injury or illness. Tang Xiao had never seen such a situation, although he had tried many methods before, but he couldn't find out why Ye Suiyun was in a coma. Tang Xiaoqiang wanted to calm himself down, and said secretly: "Don't panic, don't panic, he will wake up after a while." ”
This is a day, until the sun rises the next day, Ye Suiyun is still the same. Tang Xiao secretly thought that waiting like this was not a solution, although he looked normal, but he was in such a deep coma, and he would be in danger at any time, so he needed to be rescued immediately with the 'Awakening Soup' and regained his senses. But in this barren mountain, where will I find the medicinal materials that I can take advantage of for a while. At that moment, Tang Xiao made up his mind, and he didn't care if he would run into the pursuers, so he carried Ye Suiyun and headed east.
After walking for two hours, I suddenly saw a mountain farmer walking with a bamboo basket on his back. Tang smiled and shouted repeatedly, the man was quite surprised to see a little girl with bright eyes, but carrying a man who didn't know whether he was dead or alive. Tang Xiao didn't care about the other party's strange look, asked where he was, and learned that this was already the boundary of Baling County, and asked: "Dare to ask the old man, where can I buy medicinal materials nearby?" The old farmer hesitated and said: "I don't know, from now on not far from Peng Village, where do you go to see, there may be what you want." Tang smiled and thanked him, and carried Ye Suiyun on his back and walked in the direction pointed by the old man.
Seeing the sun setting, the sky is getting dark, there is a village, a few children in the village are playing, Tang Xiao stepped forward to ask, the children saw that it was a beautiful sister, and they were not very afraid, and they replied nonsense, this is really Peng Village. When asked about the doctor in the village, the boy blinked and thought for a moment, and then pointed out, "Master Niu, the northernmost man in the village, will be sick." Tang Xiao hurriedly searched according to their description and found the place. When he opened the door, he saw that it was an old man with a sixtieth birthday, and when he asked that it was Master Niu, he immediately explained his intention.
Seeing that Ye Suiyun's eyes were closed, Master Niu shook his head and said, "Don't listen to the babies' nonsense, the old man will only look at the bruises and injuries, and such a person can't be cured." Tang Xiao thought to himself, he couldn't find out the cause of the disease, let alone someone else. She asked, "Do you have elm, knotweed, turmeric, cocoon, angelica, peony and other herbs?" Master Niu waved his hand and said: "There are no rare things in our village that the girl said, and the old man has some prepared medicinal oil here. Tang Xiao was disappointed for a while, and when he went to see Ye Suiyun, he still didn't react at all, and he was worried, thinking that he had been in a coma for more than a day, and he couldn't delay it any longer. He turned his head and asked, "Excuse me, sir, how do I get to the town?" ”
Master Niu exclaimed, "Could it be that the girl wants to go to the town at this time?" Tang Xiao nodded, and Master Niu persuaded: "The town is not far from here, but it's dark today, it's too dangerous for you to go out alone, there are often bandits near here, why don't you rest with your friends here for the night, and go back tomorrow morning?" Tang Xiao looked at Ye Suiyun and said, "Thank you for your concern, don't worry, please tell me." Master Niu had no choice but to point out where to go, and after Tang Xiao understood, he said, "My friend asked the old gentleman to take care of it on his behalf." Master Niu reassured her, and said at the end: "The bandits in this area are making a lot of trouble, mainly Juxian Village and Octagonal Village, if you meet the people of Octagonal Village, you are not afraid, but if it is a bandit from Juxian Village, the girl must be careful, this gang of people do all kinds of evil, and they must be arrested when they see the beautiful girl." ”
Coming out of Peng Village, I felt uneasy along the way, and I was naturally frightened by Master Niu's words. Without Ye Suiyun's burden, Tang Xiao actually felt that her body was much lighter than before, and she knew that because she had been suffering from both mental and physical strength from time to time in the past month, her skills had also been invisibly improved, and that was really a blessing in disguise. Tang Xiao's feet were very fast, and in less than an hour, he came to Baling Town without any danger.
Seeing that the lights in the town have long been gone, people have long gone to sleep, and I am afraid that the pharmacy has long been closed. Tang Xiao didn't think about it, found the pharmacy that Master Niu said, made sure that there was no one around, used a silver needle to pick the door lock, and slipped in, and at the same time secretly ashamed, thinking that he was cherished by the elders of the family when he was a child, and was taught by the master, although he was not a weak lady, but he was also knowledgeable, and now he became a thief, if he was seen, it would be a shame. But after thinking about it, this is also a last resort to save people, and it is not a bad thing, but it is the duty of a doctor. Although I was relieved, I had to think that if it weren't for Ye Suiyun, would I still be so dedicated?
The hall was dark, but the medicine cabinet was very easy to find, especially for Tang Xiao, the taste of herbs was like a familiar friend to her, and she came to the front with a familiar car. She shook the fire fold, corresponding to the name on the cabinet drawer, and all kinds of medicinal materials came at hand, and wrapped a big bag.
Just when he was done, Tang Xiao suddenly felt that there seemed to be some movement on the ground, and when he brought the firelight closer, he couldn't help but be startled, it turned out to be a big rat gnawing on the drawer of the medicine cabinet. This rat is snow-white and very large, comparable to the yellow dog raised by ordinary people.
Tang Xiao was born in a martial arts family and walked the rivers and lakes, although he was different from ordinary people, after all, he was the heart of his daughter's family, and when he saw such a foreign object, he couldn't help but feel furious. She wanted to leave quickly, but suddenly saw that the rat had torn open the cabinet drawer, took out two medicinal herbs, and didn't eat them, but just spit on the ground. The white rat climbed up the third floor along the cabinet aisle, found a blind 'Mai Men Dong', concocted it in the same way, and took out a few more. Tang Xiao looked at it interestingly, and thought: "This big mouse doesn't seem to be here to eat, but it is very purposeful to find." "Take a closer look at several medicines, all of which are mainly used to treat pulmonary dysfunction and coughing up blood.
The rat got off the ground, bit the two branches together, and crawled away with a bulging mouth. Tang Xiao was curious and wanted to see where it was going in the end, so he followed.
