The high place of the tree hides the pursuers
Midnight. Tree height. Moonlight.
Wei Qianlang opened his eyes suddenly.
After years of martial arts training, his alertness and reaction to danger have been integrated into every muscle of his body and become muscle memory.
The wariness of danger hidden deep in his brain made him aware that someone was approaching him, even in his sleep.
At this moment, Wei Qianlang's body had not shaken at all, and he had already habitually raised his arm and blocked it with a cross hand in front of him-
There was a soft touch on the arm, as if it had hit a woman's tender little hand.
When he opened his eyes completely, Wei Qianlang saw Zhao Sichen's delicate little face at a glance, three feet in front of him.
The bright moonlight sprinkled behind Zhao Sichen, forming a circle of yellow halo around Zhao Sichen.
Zhao Sichen's eyes, like bright stars in the dark curtain, sparkled in the moonlight.
Seeing that Wei Qianlang opened his eyes, Zhao Sichen, as usual, split his mouth and showed an innocent smile.
The small face is delicate and white, three points are beautiful, and seven points are bright.
Zhao Sichen separated Wei Qianlang's outstretched arm with one hand, raised the medicine bottle in his hand with the other hand, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'll help you get a medicine." β
Wei Qianlang breathed a sigh of relief and put down the hand that was blocking his chest.
In the past few days, he has become accustomed to Zhao Sichen's proximity.
At this time, hearing Zhao Sichen say that she was here to give him medicine, Wei Qianlang skillfully turned to the side and silently opened the placket of his clothes, revealing the wound on his back.
The wound on Wei Qianlang's back has been removed from the carrion, and the sewing is meticulous and tight, plus the herbs picked by Zhao Sichen in the past few days, and the best gold sore medicine has been cured.
Zhao Sichen's soft and slightly cool fingers touched the smooth skin of Wei Qianlang's back.
She first gently wiped the blood from the side of the wound with a fine linen cloth, and then sprinkled the powder on the wound.
The powder is sprinkled, giving it a slightly itchy touch.
The scent of medicine fills the nose with a calming scent.
Maybe it's the ups and downs of today's encounters, or maybe the moonlight is too gentle tonight.
The guilt in Wei Qianlang's heart reached its peak, his heart was sour, and he couldn't help but say: "I took advantage of the fire to rob ......"
"Huh?"
Zhao Sichen didn't understand, and while bandaging Wei Qianlang's wound with a clean linen cloth, he raised his eyes and glanced at Wei Qianlang with doubt.
Wei Qianlang tilted his head slightly, did not dare to look directly at Zhao Sichen's bright eyes, and said in a low voice: "Even if you don't meet me, you may not be able to get the customs clearance documents of Wei and go to the capital to live a new life - but you met me, and I was so involved that I hid in Tibet and died at the end of the world......"
Zhao Sichen suddenly realized, and then he understood that Wei Qianlang was entangled in such a thing in his heart.
She chuckled and said, "It turns out - you are so sullen tonight because of this incident?" β
Wei Qianlang raised his head, looked at Zhao Sichen, and asked suspiciously, "Do you see it?" β
Zhao Sichen smiled: "Is this hard to see? You don't act too obvious. β
Wei Qianlang hesitated for a moment and whispered, "This mission is too dangerous, and I was injured again, which has become a drag on you." It's hard for us to escapeβif you want to give up, I won't blame you......"
Zhao Sichen shook his head: "You can't give up-"
Wei Qianlang didn't expect Zhao Sichen to refuse so simply, and glanced at her in surprise.
Zhao Sichen smiled and said, "I finally encountered the opportunity to make a lot of money, but I can't give up easily......"
Wei Qianlang turned his face slightly and watched Zhao Sichen help him bandage his wounds while smiling and telling jokes.
Chasers, trees, swords, corpses.
It seems that all of this can't affect her in the slightest.
Along the way, even if the pursuers bite tightly, they have encountered dangers from time to time-
Even though she has smudges on her face and hands, and her body is embarrassed-
She still has a bright smile, seemingly heartless, but in fact strong and optimistic.
Wei Qianlang's eyes flickered, and he seemed to be burned by Zhao Sichen's smile.
He quickly looked away, didn't say anything more, and his heart became a little more determined.
Zhao Sichen, a petite girl of twelve or thirteen years old, can be so strong and brave, he is a man, will he still be able to retreat? !
Zhao Sichen didn't speak again, and quickly helped Wei Qianlang with good medicine, pulled up his clothes, and was just about to return to his position-
There was a cacophony of voices in the woods.
Zhao Sichen and Wei Qianlang glanced at each other.
So fast?!
Judging by the sound, there are quite a few of them.
Although the comer had already slowed down, he didn't dare to light the torch in a big wayβ
But in the quiet woods, this little noise is really eye-catching.
What's more, Zhao Sichen and the others were still high in the big tree, and they heard it more obviously.
Yunbi on the side was also woken up.
Yun Bi sat up quietly and clenched the weapon in her hand.
The three of them lowered their bodies, prostrate on the edge of the big tree, hid in the tree, and waited with bated breath for a while.
After a short time, four or five sturdy men came out of the dense forest.
The men were dressed in black clothes, their steps were steady, and they had long knives pinned to their waists, and from time to time there was a slight sound of weapons colliding.
The group walked slowly forward to the bottom of the big tree.
As they walked, one or two people in front of them looked carefully, stopping from time to time and squatting on the ground to check the walking marks on the ground.
Zhao Sichen and Wei Qianlang both knew it in their hearts-
As they had guessed before, there were good traces of tracking in this group!
That's why he repeatedly threw off his pursuers and was quickly re-bitten.
Zhao Sichen gestured at Yun Bi and Wei Qianlang and told them to stay where they were.
Immediately, relying on his own art and boldness, like a leaf blown down by the wind, he quietly slipped down from the tree and secretly followed behind this group of men.
As Zhao Sichen expected, these men followed the traces of the trailer and chased them all the way to the river.
This group of sturdy men discussed in a low voice by the river for a while, probably thinking that Zhao Sichen and the others had boarded the boat and left, so they chased all the way along the riverbank and left.
Zhao Sichen hid in a tree on the side, saw this group of men leaving, and waited for a while before secretly turning back.
Zhao Sichen returned to the big tree and whispered to Yun Bi and Wei Qianlang: "It's okay, they thought we crossed the river to the other side and chased after us." β
Yun Bi nodded, did not speak, sat aside, and continued to close her eyes and rest.
Wei Qianlang looked at Zhao Sichen with some pity, endured and endured, and finally couldn't help but ask: "You, do you regret that you didn't run away by yourself today?" β
Zhao Sichen was still smiling, and he said: "Regret!" β
Wei Qianlang was a little stunned, obviously not expecting Zhao Sichen to answer like this.
Zhao Sichen said with a smile: "In such a dangerous situation, I should have escaped a long time ago." So ah-gotta add money! β
Wei Qianlang's heart was relieved, and he didn't know why, the stone that had been pressing on his heart seemed to have fallen to the ground.
Seeing Zhao Sichen looking at him with a smile, Wei Qianlang also smiled slightly, and said softly: "What should I do, I have used all the money I can use, and I don't have to add money." β
He also made a joke.
Zhao Sichen waved his hand and said bluntly: "Although you don't have money, you have power!" β
Wei Qianlang smiled lightly.
He didn't ask Zhao Sichen why he was able to guess his identity.
In his opinion, Zhao Sichen and his entourage are all knowledgeable and have unique skills, which is not an ordinary family.
However, they kept their promises, guarded him all the way, and never gave up on him even when he was in danger of life and death.
Naturally, he should give back accordingly.
Now that Zhao Sichen has guessed his identity, Wei Qianlang no longer hides it.
Wei Qianlang stretched out his hand and took it out of his waist, untied the sachet on his waist, and handed it to Zhao Sichen: "I don't have anything else on me, only this piece of jade pendant is left."
If the girl doesn't dislike it, take this jade pendant. On weekdays, this jade pendant is easy not to show.
When you arrive in Daqing City in the future, you can ask me to do one thing with this jade pendant. β
Zhao Sichen would not be polite to Wei Qianlang, reached out and took the jade pendant, looked at it in his hand, and asked, "Really?" Anything goes? β
Wei Qianlang smiled faintly and was confident: "As long as the things you ask for are not harming nature and reason, or harming innocents, you can put it forward." I will do everything I can to do it. β
Zhao Sichen grinned and said, "Then I'll thank you first!" β
She put the sachet into her arms, and deliberately patted it, for fear that the jade pendant would not be hidden deep enough.
Raising his head, seeing that Wei Qianlang was still looking at her directly, Zhao Sichen made another mistake, and laughed at Wei Qianlang: "You're not afraid, I ran away by myself with the jade pendant?" β
After many experiences, Wei Qianlang already knows Zhao Sichen's bad taste, and he will not fluctuate because of her teasing.
He also smiled and replied, "If you do run away, it's not your fault." I can only blame myself, I have no eyes and I have seen you wrong. β
Zhao Sichen smiled: "It's good if you think about it, in case I really run away, you can't scold me......"
Wei Qianlang solemnly said: "I believe that the girl is not a perfidious person. β
Zhao Sichen: "Stop, stop, you are a moral kidnapping, a foul!" β
Despite saying this, Zhao Sichen was still very happy.
Like a squirrel hiding chestnuts, she touched the jade pendant she had accidentally obtained, smiled so much that she couldn't see her eyes and couldn't see her teeth, and hid in a tree beside her.
Seeing Zhao Sichen's appearance of loving money like his life, Wei Qianlang shook his head with a light smile.
Miss Zhao is not an ordinary girl.
Looking up, a bright moon in the sky hung quietly in the sky.
The wind blows, and the branches and leaves of the big tree slowly sway, making a rustling sound.
The insects in the dense forest chirped, and from time to time there were beasts in the forest.
Inexplicably, the panic and fear that followed along the way seemed to be ironed out by the girl's smile.
Her bravery and determination gave him a lot of strength.
Wei Qianlang chewed and smiled at the corner of his mouth, and leaned back against the big tree trunk.
The scent of dry, warm pine wood wafts into the nostrils.
Such a taste will be unforgettable in the days to come.
