The sky is getting brighter, and although I can't see the sun, I have a clear vision. The vast area at the foot of the mountain was full of Qi Sect disciples, all of whom were left after the death of Huangfu Xun. The Wulin League has been in alliance with the imperial court for many years, although Liu Tianbo has no official position. But as the leader of the Nine Realms of the Martial Arts League, with his prestige, all the disciples of the Heavenly Sect were willing to listen to his command, especially since he still held the token of the head of the Heavenly Sect in his hand. There were many bonfires burning on the makeshift camp, and the disciples on night duty were still adding firewood to the fires. At the foot of the hill were still defended by crossbowmen, and there was no slackness. A group of disciples formed a group of twelve people, surrounding a bonfire in the middle of the camp, forming a circle in a circle, Liu Tianbo, and the seven killings were among them. Liu Tianbo has regained his usual charm, and the seven kills are also cross-kneeling luck, practicing and practicing.

Zhang Shaoying sat beside everyone, holding a branch in his hand, staring gloomily at the fire, the previous sadness had evolved into a silent inner hatred. He couldn't sleep all night, and his chest was still rising and falling at the moment, apparently not relieving his strength. Both of them sighed secretly, feeling quite guilty about Zhang Shaoying, but the unpredictable world is not something they can control.

Liu Tianbo had finished his work, and as soon as he stood up, a leader of the Heavenly Sect approached and asked respectfully, "Commander Liu, can you leave at this moment?" Liu Tianbo looked around, knowing that the disciples were still worried about the severe punishment of the door rules. Nodding his head and saying, "Let's go!" I will present a letter of worship later, presumably Sect Master Ye can also see the face below, at least it will not let you worry about your life." The leader thanked him gratefully, and turned to set up. A trace of helplessness flashed in Liu Tianbo's eyes, he was a jealous and hateful person. Although he knew that these disciples had done a lot of things that hurt heaven and reason on weekdays, he couldn't let them kill them with others. This time, he has seen Mu Qiubai's power, and Liu Tianbo has more important things to do when he returns to the Wulin League to report to Chen Tanqiu in person. It's just that Zhang Shaoying's group of people needs the escort of Mo Feng and others, although the precautions are too exaggerated. But Liu Tianbo would rather owe Xiaoyao City a big favor than Zhang Shaoying and others to make any mistakes. Liu Tianbo is not a greedy person, although Mo Feng has promised Zhang Shaoying, he is not willing to use this favor far-fetched.

The remaining three leading disciples woke up all those who were asleep, and the disciples hurriedly got up and prepared for themselves. They put out the fire for most of the night, and although everyone was filthy, they were in good order. These people are all selected disciples from the four armies in Bianjing, and although they worship the Qizong, they still maintain the habits of the army. Liu Tianbo is also quite satisfied with this, and the order is in order, and it is the right way. The Wulin League is located in the northwest, and it is also the road of military baggage hubs, so it naturally has more contact with some food ban troops. Although the group of beggars was tired all night, they also got up to clean up the bedding. In the distance, there were already disciples urging the carriage to come, and look at these horses, which were tall and strong, and they were all fine and handsome horses. The disciples brought the coffin overnight, packed up the remains of Huangfu Xun, and prepared to transport them back to Bianjing. Yu Fang had just sorted out her clothes, but saw that Xiaoxiang was still curled up and asleep. Although he couldn't bear to disturb Xiao Xiang, he still squatted down and shook Xiao Xiang's body.

Xiao Xiangwen didn't move at all, and she didn't wake up. Yu Fang's heart trembled, and she shook Xiaoxiang a few times, but saw that Xiaoxiang's face was pale. Yu Fang was a little panicked, and hurriedly shouted to Zhang Shaoying, who was still in a daze: "Brother Shaoying, Sister Xiang'er seems to be sick!" Zhang Shaoying heard Sister Xiang'er's four words and suddenly moved, turned around and rushed to the side of the small incense shop, after many casualties, Zhang Shaoying really couldn't stand the toss anymore. Everyone in the group is regarded as a relative, and in the face of the great pain of losing a loved one, Zhang Shaoying is already in turmoil. This kind of pain is only known to those who have experienced it, and it is the same no matter what you are.

Wrapping up Xiaoxiang's body, Zhang Shaoying called several times. Seeing that Xiaoxiang's face was pale, her heart trembled. Hurriedly holding Xiao Xiang's face and shaking, he called urgently. At this time, Mo Feng and the others came over and took a look at Xiao Xiang's face. Yan Yue saw something unusual.

"I'll see. Yan Yue squatted down, took Xiao Xiang's right hand and probed her pulse, trembling for a moment. glanced at Zhang Shaoying, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes. At this moment, Zhang Shaoying couldn't care about other people's faces, and hurriedly begged Yan Yue: "Save her, please, save her......"

Yan Yue hugged Xiao Xiang's body and said to everyone: "Men stop." With that, he jumped out of the way and disappeared into a hidden place on the side of the road. Hearing Yanyue's words, Zhang Shaoying was stunned, and suddenly realized and shouted Xiang'er. Zhang Shaoying chased after him, but felt that his body seemed to be prostration, and it was difficult to move an inch. With Yan Yue's words, Liu Tianbo and the others also understood what was going on, and everyone looked at Zhang Shaoying, with helplessness and sighs in their eyes.

Most of the seven killings have families, and they understand the affairs of men and women deeply. Xiaoxiang was born as a beggar, and it is usually difficult to eat enough, so she will not have time to take care of herself, so that she neglects herself, which eventually leads to such a serious illness. It's just that Mo Feng and the others thought that Zhang Shaoying was ignorant and took care of sexual affairs, but he wouldn't take care of it. Zhang Shaoying is very clear about women's menstrual affairs, Xiaoxiang is sick and has been recuperating. Although the two slept together, Zhang Shaoying never crossed Xiaoxiang except for some appetites. The girls in the group all died because of this illness, and Zhang Shaoying loved the girls in the group very much. Zhang Shaoying's mind was chaotic, she sat on the ground, her eyes were scattered, for fear that Xiaoxiang would miss something. He didn't understand why Xiao Xiang's body had been getting better according to the doctor's prescription, why he suddenly became ill. When the group of beggars saw Zhang Shaoying like this, they all knew what was wrong. followed Zhang Shaoying for three years, and the tragic deaths of the girls in the group left unforgettable memories for the group beggars, although everyone knew that it was a disease that only women could get.

A group of beggars surrounded Zhang Shaoying and couldn't help comforting him, and everyone was worried about Xiaoxiang. Before Xiaoxiang met Zhang Shaoying, she was already sick, and Zhang Shaoying had been thinking about prescribing medicine to her. It's just that there weren't so many people at the beginning, and they didn't have so much money. Zhang Shaoying usually thinks she is extremely smart, but at the moment she feels that she is the biggest fool in the world. He suddenly pushed everyone away, and crawled towards Yanyue's hiding place to chase after him, but Mo Feng stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Shaoying, and casually clicked on Zhang Shaoying's faint point. Yan Yue actually said that men stop, and Zhang Shaoying is no exception.

When Zhang Shaoying woke up, it was almost noon. He lay on a pile of hay, covered with the fox skin blanket, and the sun made him dizzy. The disciples of Tianzong had already left, and Liu Tianbo had also returned to the Martial Arts League. Seven killings took Zhang Shaoying and the others to change the mountain recess, Zhang Shaoying rubbed his eyes, suddenly bounced up, looked around and shouted Xiang'er. Ran straight to Xiao Xiang lying on the grass. A group of beggars gathered around Xiao Xiang, some holding the quilt for her, and some combing her scattered hair. Everyone stared at Xiaoxiang silently, and many people wept and were at a loss. Xiao Xiang seemed to be asleep, but her face was pale and frightening, and her brows were furrowed, showing extreme pain. Putting her arms around Xiao Xiang's body, Zhang Shaoying tried her best to lighten her strength and voice, and called Xiang'er twice, and Xiao Xiang slowly opened her eyes. Faintly called Brother Shaoying, and Xiao Chanton's brows jumped even tighter. Zhang Shaoying tried to hold her breath and asked softly, "Xiang'er, how are you?" It must be the fake medicine prescribed by the doctor, I'm going to kill him!" Zhang Shaoying's eyes were red and his body twitched. Zhang Shaoying wanted to say more, but Xiaoxiang smiled weakly and said, "My illness ...... It's been several years, and I've seen it to Granny He, but it's been delayed for too long, and it's rotten. The medicine prescribed by Dr. Xu is just some conditioning drugs and tonics, which can only be delayed for a few days, but I didn't expect it to be so early, originally...... Originally, Dr. Xu said that he could live for a year and a half with this medicine. As he spoke, two lines of tears slipped down Xiaoxiang's pale face. She had been dreading this day, but it had finally come. She didn't want to die, and she didn't have too much luxury. just wanted to be with Zhang Shaoying for another year and a half, and the two died happily together in Zhang Shaoying's arms. Loneliness since childhood, hunger, abuse, and the pampering of relatives have become extravagant hopes for her. Zhang Shaoying's care has made her feel warm, but she doesn't even have any hope of continuing. She wanted to live, but she knew that no one could save her. There was a chance that she had the money to go to the doctor, but the hunger of the group for several days deprived her of the only chance. At the moment, she didn't dare to think about it, she just wanted to go back to the secret place to see the unknown flowers, the bubbling hot bath. What used to be such a simple thing is now impossible to stand.

Zhang Shaoying's body trembled, and in recent months, Xiaoxiang has proposed several times that she wants to go back to the secret place to see. But he was busy dealing with Song Shouren, but he didn't take it to heart. Thinking about it now, Zhang Shaoying couldn't wait to wipe his neck. Crying and nodding, Zhang Shaoying choked and said, "I'm so stupid, Brother Shaoying will take you there now, and we won't come out again." "If Xiaoxiang's illness had been cured two years ago, it would not have been a serious illness. But if healed, for a group of beggars who have no means of making a living, the money spent on curing the disease can starve everyone to death on the streets. That is, this year, everyone's life is a little better, although every time they can win a lot of money from Song Shouren, they have to keep it to pay off their debts when they lose. Zhang Shaoying once naively thought that sitting in a prison cell for a month could be exchanged for ten taels of silver, which was a great deal, but that time they went in forty-one people, and only seventeen people came out alive. At that time, Zhang Shaoying secretly swore that he would rather die than go to prison in his life. Zhang Shaoying understands this, and Xiaoxiang understands it even more. The money that Zhang Shaoying saves on weekdays is handed over to Xiaoxiang for safekeeping. Zhang Shaoying just wants to save some money to change the tragic fate of begging all her life and find a way out for everyone.

Now that the money is enough, Xiaoxiang is going to die, Zhang Shaoying only feels that the sky is falling, and she can only pray that Xiaoxiang can live a little longer, talk to her more, and hope that she can be saved. Zhang Shaoying has experienced too much of this pain, and may have become numb. Watching someone die and dying in your arms is a very different feeling. Because only then will you realize the fragility of life and the desire for life. Xiao Xiang smiled reluctantly and said thoughtfully: "How can you say stupid things! Let's ...... Let's be happy, skinny horses...... What should I do!" Zhang Shaoying listened, and his eyes dimmed a lot. He put Xiao Xiang down gently, turned around and walked towards Mo Feng, who was looking at him. Zhang Shaoying bowed down and begged in a throat: "Brother Mo, I beg you something." Whatever you want me to do in the coming day, I will do it for you as a cow or a horse. ”

looked at Zhang Shaoying's helpless, sad eyes. Thinking of talking about Xiaoxiang's condition just now, even Yan Yue couldn't help crying. Such trauma is both cruel and painful for a woman. If other women had reached such an extent, they would have died long ago. Maybe the medicine prescribed by the doctor is really effective, so Xiaoxiang can live until now. Mo Feng picked up Zhang Shaoying and said, "If you have anything to ask me for, there are not many things in the world that I can't do." Zhang Shaoying knelt down again and said, "I beg you to help me take care of these companions." Mo Feng squatted down, quite surprised, he thought that Zhang Shaoying begged him to avenge his dead companion. Mo Feng asked with concern, "What are you going to do?" Zhang Shaoying lowered his head and said, "I'm going somewhere, but I can't say where." Mo Feng didn't force him, he just heard a hint from the conversation between him and Xiaoxiang, and he also appreciated Zhang Shaoying's love, in the eyes of Xiaoyao City, love has no dignity. It is precisely because of this kind of love that Xiaoyao City can run rampant in the rivers and lakes, and no matter who he is, the spy sent by him will be annihilated in this rolling love. Mo Feng nodded and said, "Go do your thing." You already have a choice, I will send them to Liu Tianbo. ”

After that, Mo Feng glanced at Canglong slightly, and suddenly smiled at Zhang Shaoying: "But before leaving, it seems that you have to give an order for them to go with me." As he spoke, Mo Feng helped Zhang Shaoying up. Zhang Shaoying stared at the rest of the beggars, feeling guilty in her heart. He has always kept the secret matter of the secret land, and no one knows about it except Xiaoxiang. It's a paradise, but it's not a way out. Zhang Shaoying has never told everyone about the secret land, and even he himself does not want to live in the secret land and isolate himself from the world. Zhang Shaoying paused, and said to everyone with tears in his eyes: "You leave here with the heroes first, I will come to you in a few days, and in the future, you must listen to the words of the thin horse, and no one is allowed to violate the rules in the group." Everyone takes care of their companions, and no one is left behind, whether they live or die. Zhang Shaoying's words are undoubted, the beggars all know that Xiaoxiang is going to die, after Zhang Shaoying's words, many people cried, touching Xiaoxiang's body and couldn't bear to separate. Yu Fang took Xiao Xiang's hand and cried: "Sister Xiang'er, you are gone, who will be my companion in the future!" Hu Yuan stood aside, and he didn't feel sad in his heart. While wiping away tears, he scolded: "His grandmother's, I haven't cried in many years." Canglong on the side was rarely calm, and said, "This is the only time I've ever seen it!"

The thin horse stepped forward with tears in his eyes and said to Zhang Shaoying: "Boss, hand everyone over to me, you must come with you, and we have to avenge the dead." ”

Thin Horse's rare calmness, facing the departure of Xiaoxiang's close partner, instantly made him grow a lot. Zhang Shaoying often teaches everyone that it is better to rely on themselves than to ask for others, but today Zhang Shaoying knelt down and begged for others. At this time, he finally understood what responsibility is and what is boss. Thin Ma's firm eyes made Zhang Shaoying feel warm, and Zhang Shaoying said in a throat: "Thin Ma, everyone has handed it over to you." I will definitely be back, waiting for me. The thin horse nodded in response, "Boss, be careful." Zhang Shaoying actually said that he would come back, and he would definitely come back, everyone thought so. The almost blind reverence made everyone believe in Zhang Shaoying's every word.

Fox Ridge is rare all year round, and there are many wild animals. From pheasants and monkeys to white bears and tigers. Zhang Shaoying didn't dare to carry Xiao Xiang behind him, every time he moved, although Xiao Xiang tried his best to endure it, he still snorted in pain, so he had to hold Xiao Xiang horizontally on the mountain trail and walk slowly, he didn't dare to go too fast. This place is only a few miles away from the secret land, and at this moment he just wants Xiao Xiang to be more comfortable and not leave him early. The entrance to the secret land was in the Shiliu Cave, and Zhang Shaoying walked for half an hour before finding the Shiliu Cave. Although it was a very cold period, Zhang Shaoying was also tired and sweating. There are many caves in the Fox Ridge, all kinds of birds and beasts live in it, but there is no weed in this stone flow cave. As soon as Zhang Shaoying entered the Shiliu Cave with Xiaoxiang on his back, he felt a cold wind blowing, and he couldn't help but shiver. The invasion of the cold air also made Xiaoxiang frown. Zhang Shaoying noticed something unusual, and hurriedly came out of the cave, wrapped the quilt on Xiaoxiang's body around herself, untied the fox skin blanket, and wrapped Xiaoxiang's body tightly. Looking at Zhang Shaoying's busy figure, Xiaoxiang was reluctant. Reluctantly wiped the beads of sweat for Zhang Shaoying, Xiaoxiang only felt that this time, she almost used up her strength.

The cold in the cave was pressing, Zhang Shaoying insisted on himself, and although he was wrapped in a quilt, he was still shivering from the cold. Straight along the entrance of the cave for more than ten zhang, there is a huge irregular big hole in front of you, connecting dozens of holes of different sizes up and down. On the left side of the cave, a deep pool nearly three zhang wide can't help but exude cold air, and several beams of sunlight from the top of the cave are shining in the deep pool, reflecting a faint blue light, making this hazy big hole look very strange and cold. Zhang Shaoying walked briskly to the right, and the cold made his feet ache and was unbearable.

Enter the inner cave on the right side of the cave that is one or two people high, and the light is darker inside. Fortunately, Zhang Shaoying has walked many times and knows that the terrain here has slid slightly, and the ground is extremely wet. I had to stick to the dry place under the wall and move forward slowly, about a few feet, and the hole was divided into three openings. Xiaoxiang knew that it was not easy to walk here, so she insisted on letting Zhang Shaoying carry herself behind her, and Zhang Shaoying had to comply. In the haze, Zhang Shaoying touched the hole in the middle. The cave was blurry and difficult to clear, and Zhang Shaoying was worried that she would fall on Xiaoxiang and walk very slowly. He held back his breath and walked out of the general direction from memory. The further you go, the darker the light becomes, and the terrain begins to fall larger. After touching several holes, there was no further branch, and there was a steep half-channel road. Fortunately, it's no longer as cold as outside, but it's a little stuffy. Zhang Shaoying hugged Xiaoxiang in front of him and sat down. This trough is obviously washed by heavy water all year round, and forms a channel that is more than ten zhang bent. The channel was extremely damp, and Zhang Shaoying couldn't care about it. He took a deep breath and slid down. He hugged Xiao Xiang's body tightly in his arms and didn't let Xiao Xiang's body touch the ground. Although the channel is nearly a foot wide, it is not slippery. Zhang Shaoying hoarded several places in a row, and turned in several directions before falling to the bottom. The bright light came into view, and it turned out to be the inside of a waterfall, and the torrent of the river poured down from the previous part of the cave, hiding the lower part of the waterfall. Zhang Shaoying couldn't care about the pain on her body, and held Xiaoxiang in her arms, for fear that she would miss something. The waterway is a corner of the waterway that has been exposed by a landslide, and the ground begins to widen as you walk right along the waterfall. Zhang Shaoying carried Xiaoxiang on his back and walked down the waterway with one hand holding the stone wall. The waterways are potholed, and the water from a small waterfall seeps in, and the ground is even more slippery. Zhang Shaoying walked forward slowly, not daring to be careless. He only had to walk through the waterways here and there, and he would be able to descend into dense ground.

Fortunately, this waterway flows along the mountain wall, has been silent for many years, and has long been weathered in many places. The faint sunlight shining through the broken mountain wall was not as hazy as it was when entering the cave. Walking through the waterway, Zhang Shaoying went down to a small stream, and finally came down densely. Stepping into the icy stream, Zhang Shaoying could no longer feel the slightest coldness, and her body seemed to be frozen. As far as the eye can see, it is a wetland surrounded by several conjoined mountains on all sides, and at the foot of the mountain, it is more than ten zhang round. The wetlands are covered with wide grass that is lush and green, and it is different from the outside world because it does not see sunlight all year round. A large deep pool was washed under the waterfall inside, and the river overflowed to divide the wetland in two. Zhang Shaoying put Xiaoxiang in a dry place by the stream, turned around and took out a rusty firewood knife from the crack in the stone on the side, which he had left after he had come here several times. These weeds grow very dense and tall, with stems as big as green bamboos. Who would have believed that these weeds could grow so much unless they saw it with their own eyes? There are also many dead vines in the wetland, and if you don't have a knife, you will have to work hard to get through here. The leaves of those weeds are extremely sharp, and the scars on Zhang Shaoying's arms are left here. After working for half an hour, Zhang Shaoying cut a path obliquely from the weeds on both sides of the riverbank. After returning the firewood knife to its original place, Zhang Shaoying picked up Xiaoxiang and continued to move forward. After working for a long time, Zhang Shaoying felt tired, but he didn't dare to be careless. There are many poisonous insects in this wetland, and although it is winter, it is inevitable that there will be no accidents. Flowing across the river, Zhang Shaoying walked to the lower part of the mountain wall, and the river water on the side disappeared from the left gap under the mountain wall. On the right, there is a natural semicircle, more than two feet high. There is a strange light faintly emitted in the cave, which is dazzling.

Zhang Shaoying secretly breathed a sigh of relief and slowly entered the cave.

This grotto is extremely high and large, the whole grotto is a semicircle, the highest point has forty or fifty zhang, and the width of the inside and outside is nearly fifty zhang. The river water outside the cave enters the cave from the gap under the mountain wall, and forms a gentle river with a width of zhang from the cave, twisting and flowing out of the cave. The cave was originally a stone field. However, under the guidance of manpower, the river water was introduced from the gaps in the cave, and various intertwined rivers were formed. These small rivers are interspersed with twists and turns, and they are quite spectacular. The trails are paved with flat stones, and some bridges even have stone guardrails. All kinds of imitation of the mountains of different sizes, the strange peaks show out, the clever stones are listed, the waterfalls flow springs, the scenery is picturesque, it is like the whole world is reduced and placed in the cave. The artificially carved chutes on the rocks are planted with all kinds of unknown flowers and trees of different sizes, and the fresh fragrance of flowers fills the entire grotto, just like the spring when everything is in full bloom. The cave is also covered with carved stone statues of boys and girls, but they have different expressions, some are standing, some are lying on their backs, they are lying down, and they are even sitting naked in the water. The expression is simple, lifelike, and endearing.

There are many large and small smooth jade walls scattered on the stone wall, and some sunlight shines along the side of the cave roof, and a wide hole shines in, and the refracted blue light is connected. The blue light is reflected from the water surface to the cave wall, and it wriggles with the fluctuations of the water, as if you are in a fairyland.

Zhang Shaoying has no time to enjoy these scenes, and he doesn't understand it. Although he did not know who had lived here, he had not seen anyone there several times. He can't take care of this much, there is a big spring pool four zhang square on the right side of the middle section of the grotto river, and the clear spring water slowly gushes out from the flat pier in the middle of the spring pool. There is a square stone house with a width of two zhang on the flat pier, which is made of flat stones and is connected by the method of concave and convex. Zhang Shaoying walked through the stone house with Xiaoxiang on his back and walked straight to the cave. Originally, there is a big cave mouth five zhang high in front of the cave, the river water in the cave flows out from the left side of the cave mouth, and pours down along the horizontal ridge of the stone ridge outside the cave, forming a small waterfall. In front of the entrance of the cave is a slightly flat stone ridge. The water that flows down the waterfall runs down the side wall and is washed into a deep pool all year round. The water of the pond flows down the mountain wall to the lower part of the river. It turned out that this was a gentle land between two mountains, nearly 100 zhang long.

Beyond the rocky ridge is a flat plateau that stretches along the right side of the hill to the end of the river. Under the mountain wall on the right side of the stone ridge, there is a petal-shaped hot spring bath that is two feet round. The pool is filled with warm spring water from morning to night, and Xiaoxiang likes to soak in this natural bath the most. Zhang Shaoying didn't care about the dirtiness of her body, and jumped into the pool with Xiaoxiang on her back. At this time, the water temperature in the pool was not too hot, Zhang Shaoying was busy for most of the day, and when she entered the warm water, she felt lazy, and she really didn't want to get up again. Just worried about Xiao Xiang's condition, he helped Xiao Xiang to sit on the edge of the bath, and then climbed out of the hot spring. Not far from the stone ridge, there is a large area of peach blossom-like but unknown flower trees, which stretch to the end of the river. Although Zhang Shaoying didn't know the name of this flower tree, she also knew that this flower was definitely not a peach blossom. In particular, this flower has been blooming for two years, with flowers but no fruits, mellow and charming.

The intoxicating aroma of flowers is Xiao Xiang's favorite, but throwing these flowers in the bath is a great luxury. Zhang Shaoying picked the petals and sprinkled them in the bath, which allowed her to enter the pool. Xiao Xiang's body was warmed by the hot spring, and the pale color on her face improved slightly. Zhang Shaoying gently hugged Xiaoxiang in her arms, feeling helpless between grief. He was very afraid, very afraid that Xiaoxiang would not wake up from sleep. After soaking for nearly half an hour, Zhang Shaoying saw Xiaoxiang's ruddy face, and couldn't help comforting herself in her heart. Looking back on what happened in the past two days, Zhang Shaoying suddenly felt like a nightmare.

At this time, Zhang Shaoying felt Xiao Xiang's body move slightly. Zhang Shaoying hurriedly helped Xiaoxiang away and called twice excitedly. Xiaoxiang slowly opened her eyes, only to feel that her body was sore and weak, and she couldn't exert her strength. She didn't know what pills the beautiful lady had given her, and the pain in her lower body was no longer so intense. After staring at Zhang Shaoying for a while, Xiaoxiang suddenly cried. Snuggled in Zhang Shaoying's arms, and cried sadly: "Brother Shaoying, Xiang'er is dying, I don't want to die, I don't want to die......" Xiaoxiang's desolate cry, Zhang Shaoying's grief that had just calmed down suddenly came to her heart again. Zhang Shaoying resisted the urge to cry, hugged Xiaoxiang tightly and comforted: "Xiang'er, don't be afraid, Brother Shaoying will always be with you, always with you......" After crying for a while, Xiaoxiang calmed down. Zhang Shaoying asked softly, "Xiang'er, are you better?" Xiao Xiang nodded slowly and said, "That lady gave me a pill, and now it doesn't hurt so much." I just feel so tired and want to sleep. Zhang Shaoying hurriedly said: "Okay, let's wash our bodies, Brother Shaoying will sleep with you......"

Xiaoxiang agreed and let Zhang Shaoying untie her clothes. Once Zhang Shaoying tried every means to bathe with her mandarin ducks, but Xiaoxiang has been unable to comply because of her body. I don't want to take a bath like this today, but it's the first and last time. Zhang Shaoying stripped off the clothes of the two, and the two hugged each other naked in the bath. Although Xiaoxiang knows nothing about men and women, she is not as shy as she used to be, she clings to Zhang Shaoying's chest and lets Zhang Shaoying scrub her back. Smelling the fragrance in the pool, Xiao Xiang muttered: "This flower is so fragrant, I want to soak in this pool for the rest of my life." Zhang Shaoying understood Xiaoxiang's thoughts, he didn't dare to let Xiaoxiang sleep, afraid that she would never wake up again, but he couldn't bear to let Xiaoxiang be so tired.

Zhang Shaoying said: "Okay, I'll take you to the flower forest to have a look in a while." Xiao Xiang felt that her body had regained some strength, and she was not as tired as before, so she nodded lightly in agreement. She didn't dare to sleep, afraid that she wouldn't wake up. After washing his body, Zhang Shaoying ran back to the cave naked and took out two pieces of clothes. It was the two of them who were carrying two sets of new clothes that everyone had stolen behind their backs. Zhang Shaoying has always wanted to be a hero with strong martial arts and no longer be bullied. It was only because the beggars were looking for a way out that this wish was hidden deep in their hearts. Zhang Shaoying's shirt is a long basket shirt, Xiaoxiang has a yellow plaid narrow-sleeved short shirt on the upper body, and a yellow skirt on the lower body. I've been buying this dress for a year, and the two of them haven't been willing to wear it here.

Zhang Shaoying couldn't bear Xiaoxiang's strength to walk, hugged Xiaoxiang in front of him, and walked slowly towards the flower forest. The flower forest is very elegantly decorated, and there are several connected stone roads in the forest, and there are three pavilions in the flower forest. The forest is filled with an intoxicating aroma, and the aroma is not ordinary. It is thick but not smoky, fresh and pleasant. Xiaoxiang hugged Zhang Shaoying's neck tightly, leaned on his shoulder and quietly inhaled the fragrance of the flowers, only to feel that the pain in her body had subtracted a few points.

Zhang Shaoying hugged Xiaoxiang and walked slowly quietly, but at the moment she didn't know what words to use to comfort Xiaoxiang. No matter how long she accompanies Xiao Xiang, Xiao Xiang will always leave him. Maybe there are too many such experiences, but Zhang Shaoying is a little sober. Thinking in his heart, if Xiaoxiang is really gone, where will he go. Without Xiaoxiang, I will be happy. went out to find the skinny horse, no, Zhang Shaoying immediately vetoed this idea. Thin Horse, they are no longer civilians when they join the Martial Arts Alliance. Maybe they will practice martial arts and become disciples of the Martial Arts League, and they no longer need to take care of themselves. Seeing that Zhang Shaoying was silent for a long time, Xiaoxiang raised her head and said, "Brother Shaoying, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Shaoying retracted her thoughts and smiled reluctantly: "I'm fine, don't worry." Xiaoxiang seemed to see through Zhang Shaoying's thoughts, and said, "Brother Shaoying, if I'm not here, don't do anything stupid." Skinny horses, they still need you to take care of. They will only be obedient if you are there. Xiao Xiang broke the frantic thoughts in Zhang Shaoying's heart, and nothing could attract Zhang Shaoying's attention more than the thin horses.

Zhang Shaoying understood Xiaoxiang's thoughts, although her heart was warm, it was like a knife. said: "Xiang'er, don't worry about them. Brother Shaoying is only with you now, even if the sky falls, it has nothing to do with us. Xiao Xiang smiled slightly and said, "I know, you are good to Xiang'er, and I will not forget it even when I go to the underworld." Hearing Xiaoxiang mention death, Zhang Shaoying's heart suddenly felt like a big stone, and she was speechless. Zhang Shaoying said guiltily: "Xiang'er, it's all Brother Shaoying's bad. If we had healed earlier, even if it had been ...... Even if you can't be cured, you won't leave me now. With that, tears flowed down my eyes. Xiao Xiang smiled reluctantly and said slowly: "It's not your fault, it's Xiang'er's bad life." Brother Shaoying, Xiang'er wants to come down and take a walk. Zhang Shaoying stared at Xiaoxiang and wanted to refuse, but seeing her eager look, she suddenly pressed down again. He gently put Xiaoxiang down and helped her body. "Xiang'er, don't force yourself, I'm really scared." I'm so afraid of ......" when she said it, Zhang Shaoying couldn't help crying. Xiao Xiang smiled warmly and reached out to wipe away Zhang Shaoying's tears. said slowly: "There is no power to return to the sky, no matter how sad you are, it is useless." Brother Shaoying, be happier. Xiang'er just wants to die happily in your arms, and there will be no regrets in this life, how about walking with Xiang'er?" Zhang Shaoying nodded and helped Xiao Xiang's body, Xiao Xiang couldn't exert any strength, so she had to let Zhang Shaoying help her barely walk a few steps.

After taking two steps, Xiao Xiang endured the pain in her body. Looking at a flower tree beside her, Xiaoxiang gently pushed Zhang Shaoying away, and said reluctantly: "These flowers are so fragrant and beautiful." Brother Shaoying, if I die, you will bury me in this flower forest, okay? Zhang Shaoying bit her lip and nodded again and again with tears. Xiao Xiang took two steps in a row, wanting to touch the flowers. But I want to think of this disdainful flower on weekdays, but at the moment it is so untouchable. Xiao Xiang suddenly felt that her body was collapsed and fell forward. Zhang Shaoying shouted and grabbed Xiao Xiang's body. Xiaoxiang fell into Zhang Shaoying's arms, staring at Zhang Shaoying and wanted to speak, but couldn't make a sound. Zhang Shaoying cried and shouted Xiaoxiang, but she could only let her body go limp weakly. Two lines of tears overflowed from the corners of Xiaoxiang's eyes, leaving only Zhang Shaoying full of desolate calls. Zhang Shaoying cried and hugged Xiaoxiang tightly in her arms, heartbroken. After crying for a long time, Zhang Shaoying gradually calmed down, only to feel that her body seemed to be hollowed out, and she couldn't lift her spirits anymore.

He hugged Xiaoxiang's body and collapsed under the flower tree, his eyes were dilated, and he fell into deep self-blame. If it weren't for her own incompetence, Xiaoxiang would not have left so early. If she had come down to the ground earlier, Xiaoxiang would not have died so hatefully. Zhang Shaoying was thinking wildly, and I don't know how long it took, the sky gradually darkened, but it was already time.

Zhang Shaoying's whole body was like collapse, her mind was blank, and she couldn't lift a single thought. But he hadn't eaten for a long time, and he was so hungry that he fainted. Zhang Shaoying knew that he was hungry, but he was reluctant to get up. He just wanted to hug Xiaoxiang like this, and he didn't care even if he starved to death. The fatigue in recent days has become heavier and heavier, and Zhang Shaoying tried his best to hold on until he fainted groggyly. When I woke up the next day, it was already noon. Zhang Shaoying woke up, but felt full of energy and very sober. The mild sunlight shone in through the riverside, the frost had passed, and the riverside was surrounded by unseasonal greenery. Zhang Shaoying was surprised to find that the secret place was like spring all year round within a few miles of the secret place, and there was not a single plant of dry grass in winter. Zhang Shaoying stared at Xiao Xiang's cold white face, thinking about whether to bury Xiao Xiang in the grave. After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Shaoying went back to the cave to get a hoe. I chose a flat place with four flowers and trees, dug a deep pit, and put some flower tree branches on the pad to wrap the small incense in it. Xiao Xiang was lying in his arms, and her body was already stiff. Zhang Shaoying picked a cheerful stone boy in the grotto and hugged Xiaoxiang in his arms. After burying the body and setting up a grave, Zhang Shaoying planted flower branches around the grave, and piled a layer of river stones on top of it. These flowering trees are extremely vigorous, but they can produce a small flowering tree in half a month. Zhang Shaoying expected that the surroundings of this secret land would be like spring all year round, and it should be related to this flower tree, but he couldn't say why.

After nearly half a day of busy work, Zhang Shaoying took out two stone statues of children from the cave and placed them on both sides of Xiaoxiang's grave. In the past, Xiaoxiang often hugged Guoguo and secretly wept, Zhang Shaoying thought that she felt sorry for Guoguo. Today, I finally know that Xiaoxiang is sad that she can't pass incense for him because she is sick. These two men and women who stand and wipe their faces and smile sweetly are vivid, and they are the two that Xiaoxiang likes to caress the most. Zhang Shaoying wanted to erect a monument to Xiaoxiang again, but although the daily necessities in the cave were complete, there was nothing to write and ink, so Zhang Shaoying had to work hard to move a long stone to stand in front of the grave. Thinking that Xiaoxiang was no longer there, Zhang Shaoying was sad again and cried a lot. Walking through every part of the secret land in a daze, Zhang Shaoying only felt that the secret place was full of Xiao Xiang's figure, and all the past appeared in front of him. The more he thought about it, the more worried he became, and he hated himself for being ignorant, and the guilt in his heart could not be relieved.

The living utensils in the cave are all Zhang Shaoying moved here from the town, Zhang Shaoying has not eaten for a few days, but he feels still full of energy. In my heart, I must have been so hungry that I was paralyzed and tired. There was no stove in the cave, so he simply cooked some dry noodles. There is an octagonal pavilion next to the waterfall, and the pavilion is connected by square stone pillars, which is extremely exquisite. There is a stone shed next to the hot spring, which is lined up as a kitchen. Once upon a time, the two of them danced in the kitchen, depicting the happy days after their seclusion. However, today's disaster has changed beyond recognition. No matter what Zhang Shaoying does, all that comes to mind is Xiaoxiang's shadow.

Sitting in the pavilion holding a pottery bowl and just taking two mouthfuls of clear noodles, I remembered the scene where I had eaten with Xiaoxiang, and I didn't feel that I was crying again. After eating half a bowl of noodles, Zhang Shaoying felt bitter and tasteless, and suddenly remembered that he had hidden the jar of clear wine. At that moment, he returned to the cave and took out the five-pound wine jar from under the wooden box of the stone house. Zhang Shaoying is not good at drinking, and she has no money to drink on weekdays, but she is just trying to be fresh. This clear liquor is brewed by the old man Zhang in the town with the ancestral secret recipe, and everyone in the town loves to drink his wine. Zhang Shaoying had no money to buy this expensive wine, but to recover a debt for Master Zhang, it was given to him by someone, and Zhang Shaoying has been reluctant to drink it.
