Chapter 92: The Farmer and the Lang

Seeing Xue Yuran wake up, Zhao Xuexi said, "You are awake." What do you think? It's not a big deal. ”

Xue Yuran's jade face was pale, and her willow eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. Although he is sick, he is still as quiet as Guanyin without waves.

Closed his eyes and replied lightly: "It's nothing, it's just that my whole body is sore, I have no strength, and I can't move." I seem to have a cold, how can this be? ”

Zhao Xue said with a smile: "It's all to blame for that bad idea, if you have to let me soak you in cold water, you have to change the water several times." You're not bad if you don't freeze to death. ”

Xue Yuran understood in his heart and said, "Oh! It's also appropriate to deal with it this way. The poison is too strong, and it must be poisoned with cold water, otherwise I will fall to the root of the disease. Luofan is thinking about me. Second sister, why don't you see the people of the Ji family? ”

Zhao Xue whispered: "Shhh Don't mention it! I don't know if it's your luck or your fate. You can't get married. Ji Changkong, the boy of the Ji family, slaughtered more than 700 lives in Prison Wolf Village, and committed many crimes, and has become a public enemy of martial arts. The people of the Ji family have become a mess. While dealing with the investigation of Wucheng Shenwei, he also had to give gifts to the people in the rivers and lakes who came to attend the wedding. ”

Xue Yuran sighed: "I see. I can't believe that this will turn out like this. It is really destined for everything in the world, and everything is from the heart. ”

Zhao Xue: "Hey, don't think about it, rest in peace." In the future, there is no need to worry. Luo Fan said that Hongmenglang was poisoned by him, and he will become a eunuch in the future, and he will never trouble you again. Big brother, they will go back to Qicheng to deal with official business first, and leave me to take care of you! ”

"Luofan! What a smart guy. ”

Xue Yuran spoke softly and fell asleep.

Zhao Xuewu sighed to herself: "It's smart!" It's just that people are too ruthless and weird. But he may be the noble man in your life, and he can always save you in time. Speaking of which, if he doesn't have such a character, I'm afraid he is the only man in the world who can match you intellectually. Sometimes, being smart is not a kind of suffering. ”

On the other side, in the river last night, Hongmenglang's dream was shattered, and he was hit by five or six poisonous darts in the back and fled into the water. With the good nature of the water, he reluctantly swam to the river under the pain of serious injuries and poisonous hair.

The river water is cold, Hong Menglang is poisoned and has no true qi to keep out the cold, plus his body is thin, he only shiveres in the night wind, and his lips are pale. Swim to the shore, hold the mud and sand with your hands, and try to get up. But his back was in sharp pain, and he screamed in pain, falling around in the water, like a big turtle that couldn't turn over!

I struggled a dozen times, but I still couldn't stand up. Only then did Hongmenglang know that Luofan's poison had penetrated into the spinal cord. I could only endure the pain, gritted my teeth, and crawled to the shore like a worm, cursing non-stop: "Damn it! This Luo Fan actually poisoned Xue Yuran, this method is too fucking poisonous! When I get better, I will not kill your whole family, and I will not be a man! ”

At this time, people shouted horses on both sides of the river, and saw many torches lighting up and chasing from afar. I knew that these people must have come to hunt him. Hongmenglang thought about the wet and heavy coat, and he was afraid of leaving water marks on the ground when he wore it. He took off his coat, wrapped himself in a stone, threw it into the river, and then crawled quickly to the woods on the shore.

Afraid of the pursuers, Red Menglang ignored the pain and crawled desperately forward in the grass and gravel. And so, I climbed for an hour. Seeing that it was a few miles away from the river, and the nearby grass and trees were hidden, he dared to stop and breathe.

Lying in the bushes, his limbs were cold and numb, and his back was piercing and painful. Hong Menglang raised his hands, but saw that more than a dozen blood blisters had been ground out of his palms! I want to be famous in the rivers and lakes of Hongmenglang, and I have always come and gone chic, whether it is a prince's mansion or a wealthy mansion, I have always come and gone freely. Now, it has ended so miserably. What's more, even his jade-like beautiful skin has been ruined to the point that his skin is in tatters, which is unsightly! can only be like a lost dog, hiding in this dark and moldy bush and waiting for death! I cried bitterly for a while, and felt sorry for myself.

Hiding in the woods, Hong Menglang was so tired that he was half asleep, and he didn't dare to relax his vigilance all night.

The sky was bright, and the forest was foggy and gray. An old farmer walked on the path in the distance. The old peasant, dressed in a sackcloth full of holes, walked with his back hunched and carrying a hoe, and came in good spirits.

Hearing the sound of footsteps coming from afar, Hong Menglang woke up in his dream and lay on the grass to look at it vigilantly. When he saw that it was an honest farmer, he struggled and threw himself out. Crying and begging: "Uncle! Help me! Help me! Uncle, save my life. ”

When the old farmer saw someone shouting for help, he hurriedly trotted over with a hoe on his shoulder.

When he came closer, he saw a young man wearing a white brocade shirt, lying on the ground and his back covered with blood. The old farmer put down his hoe, squatted down to check his figure, and asked with a surprised face: "Oh, why are you injured like this, this son?" Did you meet a bad guy? ”

Hong Menglang pretended to be kind and cried: "Uncle, my family is in Guicheng, and I was ordered by my father to bring servants to Jianguan to do business. Poor, I met a couple of bandits by the river last night. They killed my servants and robbed me of my goods and clothes. I desperately jumped into the river to escape. Uncle, please help me get out of here, and I will be rewarded heavily. ”

The old farmer sighed: "Hey! The way of the world! Not a day of peace. Don't worry, if you meet me, I will definitely save you. Come, I'll carry you back to my house first, and then find Lang Zhong to treat your injuries! ”

The old farmer did not doubt the identity of Hong Menglang, and enthusiastically picked him up, took the hoe, and hurried back.

It was not yet dawn, and there was no one around. Hongmenglang can be regarded as relieved. The old peasant carried the red dream lang on his back and walked two miles in one breath, and came to a very dilapidated village full of low earthen houses.

And this old man's home is actually only two low earthen houses, not much bigger than the land temple. Half of the earthen walls outside the house had collapsed. In Hong Menglang's opinion, where people live, even his kennel is a thousand times stronger than this.

The old man put Hongmenglang on the bed, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said with a smile: "Childe, at first glance, you are a child of a rich family." This body is rich in flesh and skin, and it is not difficult for me to carry you on my back. I'll go to the city to contact the catcher now, and find a Langzhong to see you by the way. You can rest assured. ”

Seeing that the old man was leaving, Hong Menglang hurriedly lay on the side of the bed and shouted, "Uncle, don't leave yet." I have something to tell you. ”

The old man stopped: "You say? What else do you want me to do for you? ”

Hong Menglang glanced around, there were really four walls in this room, except for some crockpots and rotten baskets, there was not even anything worth a penny. Curiously asked, "Uncle, are you the only one in your family?" What about your wife and children? ”

The old man smiled: "Childe, I have been fighting and killing all day long these days." We are no bigger business than you. He made a living by farming and raising coarse grains. Most of the grain was also robbed by the Jianghu people as some protection money. Farmers like us who have no money and don't dare to kill are not bad if they don't starve to death. How can there be rice to feed a family? ”

Hong Menglang took out some silver tickets from his arms, raised them and said, "Uncle, come here." I've got some money hidden here! Thanking you for saving your life. ”

When the old man saw the silver ticket, his face turned red with shame, and he waved his hand again and again: "Hey! No money! No money! My old man doesn't want money to save people! Although we are poor, we also know the truth that helping others is fun and does not want to reciprocate. I'll report it to you. Lie down and rest until I come back. ”

Seeing that the old man was leaving, Hong Menglang hurriedly shouted, "Hey! Uncle! Wait a minute. I'm seriously ill, so I have to invite Lang Zhong and buy some tonics, so you can only invite Lang Zhong with the money. ”

The old man stopped, touched his head, and said with a smirk: "Yes, if you don't have money, you can't invite Langzhong." All right. The old man took your money and went to ask you for a doctor, and I will return the rest of the money to you. ”

The old man walked up to Hong Menglang and reached out to take the silver ticket. At this moment, Hong Menglang's eyes were poisonous, and he grabbed the old man's hand and pulled him closer! With a flash of silver light, a bright dagger plunged straight into the old man's neck!

When he landed, blood splattered several feet. The old man fell to the ground, one hand clutching the blood-spurting wound, and the other hand trembling and pointing at Hong Menglang, his mouth wide open but unable to make a sound! His eyes were staring at Hong Menglang, full of puzzlement! After a moment of swimming on the ground, the blood dried up, and then he stopped struggling.

Hong Menglang killed the old man with one move, and then lay on the side of the bed panting! looked at the dead old man and sneered: "I'm sorry." Either you die or I die. However, seeing that you are not doing well, it is good to die. When I get better, I'll burn more paper money for you, and be a rich man in the underworld! ”

After killing the old farmer, Hongmenglang wrapped his body in linen and pushed it under the bed. He crawled out of the door and locked it from the outside, and climbed into the house through the window. In this way, neighbors and catchers will think that the owner of the house is not at home and will not enter to check it. After handling everything carefully, Hongmenglang recuperated his injuries at the farmer's house with peace of mind.
