Chapter 108: Embers
A good dream, a comfortable winter sleep, when Shaoyuan woke up, he found himself in a dart game. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info abdomen was still aching, and I couldn't help but touch it.
"Master Lu, thank God, you finally woke up, I'll call the doctor right away", Shaoyuan's actions woke up Xiao Yue on the side, so Xiao Yue hurriedly ran out of the room.
Shao Yuan in the room raised his right hand, still trembling slightly, "After the battle, eh, that was Xiao Yue just now?"
After a while, Gao Chong and the doctor came over together, only to see Gao Chong's tired face, as if he had not slept all night, "Shaoyuan, are you awake?"
"Ah pet, how long have I been asleep? I remember that I was in Xuanmeng Pavilion? Why did I go back to the dart game? Oh, by the way, I seem to have been stabbed?" Shao Yuan began to think hard about what had happened before he "went to sleep".
"Master Lu, don't move, the old man will change the medicine for you," the doctor patted Shaoyuan's shoulder and said
Shaoyuan turned around and lay down obediently, but he was still thinking hard. And Xiao Yue on the side asked timidly, "Doctor, is this injury serious?"
While changing the dressing, the doctor said, "It's not serious, if it's serious, that position is an inch deeper than enough to take a person's life, the knife is sharp, but the strength is not good, and Lu Shaoxia is wearing soft armor, so in fact, it didn't hurt much, it just left a scar."
Satsuki breathed a sigh of relief, "That's great"
When Shaoyuan saw that Xiao Yue was so sad, he immediately laughed, "Thank you Xiao Yue for being so attentive, by the way, Xiao Yue, why are you in the dart game?"
"It's a long story," Gao Zhong said, "Before I answer your question, can you answer me first, why did you go to Xuanmeng Pavilion? Didn't my father plan to intercept outside the city? You ran back by yourself?"
Shaoyuan was silent, just lying on the bed silently, at this time, a dart master pushed the door in, and bowed, "Fourth son, the master said that he was ready to go"
Gao Pet turned around and nodded, "Got it, I'll go out right away"
At this time, the doctor had already finished changing the medicine, "It's okay, Lu Gongzi can't drink alcohol these days, and he can't eat spicy food." It's better to recuperate."
Shaoyuan bowed his hand, "Doctor Xie, by the way, Ah Pet, where are you going?"
Gao Chong nodded silently, "See off the dart master of the Dingyuan Dart Bureau for me"
Of course, Shaoyuan knew what this send-off meant, so he arched his hand, "Ah pet, it's abrupt, can you also bring it with you?" When you were in Chaisang, you were also taken care of by the big brothers of the dart master in Xia, and I hope to send them off for the last time."
Gao Pet was puzzled, "Okay, but Shaoyuan, you are injured, if you are not well, you have to come back immediately, Miss Xiaoyue, you can take care of Shaoyuan"
Xiaoyue bowed and saluted, "Obey the order of Gao Gongzi"
The send-off convoy set off on a cold morning, the dawn sun breaking through the darkness and spilling the sun onto the earth. There was no one on the streets, but everywhere there were traces of the battle of the previous day, in ruins and ruins. There was no horn suona, and no one was crying, the Gao family, as the main family, silently walked in front with their heads down, quietly sending the last ride to the warriors behind them.
Behind the team were some family heads and family members who were protected by the Gao Family Dart Bureau, as well as Shaoyuan and Xiaoyue. At this moment, Shao Yuan had the opportunity to ask Xiao Yue some of his own questions, "By the way, Xiao Yue, how long have I slept?"
Satsuki thought carefully, "If you really want to count, it's probably a little more than a day."
Shaoyuan was taken aback, "Ah, a small knife wound, actually lying for so long?"
Xiaoyue was a little embarrassed, "This, it seems that because of the weather, Lu Gongzi, you still have a fever, so that's it"
Shaoyuan suddenly realized, "Oh, eh, then why am I in the dart game? I'm alone in Xuanmeng Pavilion, I didn't accompany me, didn't the person who stabbed me take my life?"
Xiao Yue hurriedly said, "I didn't intend to take your life, but I was too scared in the firewood room, and someone rushed in coldly, I just, I just, I just stabbed over, and I found out that it was Lu Gongzi, you."
Xiao Yue said a lot of words in a hurry, as if she suddenly realized the fact that she seemed to have stabbed herself down, and hurriedly covered her mouth, but Shaoyuan had already heard it clearly, and looked at Xiao Yue speechlessly, "I'm just wondering...... It turned out that Xiao Yue stabbed me down, no wonder you are still in the dart game, are you really afraid of stabbing me to death?"
Xiao Yue hurriedly defended, "I was very scared, I took a serious look and found that it was Lu Gongzi, I immediately ran outside to find someone to help, fortunately the thieves had basically retreated, I just ran to the dart game, just met the senior son, the senior son took you back without saying a word, I don't worry about it, you can not worry, you can rest assured, son, if you really can't wake up, I will take care of you for the rest of your life, if you die, I will also cut myself, one life to one life"
Shaoyuan waved his hand, "Okay, okay, unintentional mistakes, I don't blame you, there are countless big and small injuries, not one is missing." It's you, I remember that a lot of girls died in Xuanmengge, why are you okay?"
Xiao Yue blinked mischievously, "Lu Gongzi still remember that night, in the secret passage in the side building? that day there was a sudden noise on the street, so I took a few sisters to hide in the secret passage, from morning to afternoon, with the outside sound is not so noisy, we just wanted to come out of the firewood room, how do we know that you are coming"
Shao Yuan nodded, "I see, it's also a great luck in misfortune, so what about them, where are they now?"
Xiao Yue shook her head, "I don't know, it should still be in the Xuanmeng Pavilion, since you were injured, I followed you, and in a while, Childe will accompany me back, right?"
Shaoyuan nodded, agreed, looked at the surrounding scene, and sighed, "Xiaoyue, do you know, the place where I grew up, when I left, it was almost the same as here, it was really emotional"
Xiao Yue wanted to change the topic, so she asked, "By the way, Lu Gongzi, why did you suddenly come to Xuanmeng Pavilion?"
Shaoyuan looked back and thought "I want to think about it", and in an instant, the sour memories of that scene came back to his mind, and finally turned into a sigh, "If you have a chance, let's tell you again, let's go, keep up, we're going to lose it"
Outside the Ten Mile Pavilion in the north of the city, wooden shelves have been built one by one, and the dart masters have put their comrades on the shelves neatly one by one. Gao Zheng picked up the memorial text and read it aside, this memorial was drafted by Liu Baili Thorn History, and basically all the heads of the family attended this small funeral on behalf of their respective families.
After the memorial was read, Gao Zheng picked up the torch with his own hands, and then all the dart masters made military rituals, and the roar of more than 70 dart masters together was enough to vibrate.
Shaoyuan sighed, "More than 140 dart masters actually lost more than half, and this loss is basically the dart masters who defend the dart bureau in the city, this city is really fierce."
And Gao Ping, who was around the stove, clenched his fists tightly, and seemed to tremble because he was too hard, not only Gao Pet, but also Gao An, who also had a deep friendship with the dart masters, Gao Zheng and Gao Ping respectively pressed the two people "The thieves have been all caught, waiting to fall, and it can be regarded as avenging them"
Gao Zhong whispered, "Father thinks this matter is over?"
Gao Zheng's expression tightened, and he asked in a low voice, "What do you mean by my son?"
Gao Zhong looked back at the heads of the family coldly, and said coldly, "Father, our plan is so detailed, catch those internal responses the day before the incident, it stands to reason that it is the final plan, and I also specially arranged the anti-internal response to prepare to intercept and kill those rumor-spreading homeless people, but our plan is almost useless, not only that, but every step of our arrangement seems to be well understood, Fu Liumen, lead away Brother Wu and the defenders of the north gate, set fire to the city, and the west gate, which was originally the direction of the feint, became the main attack, father, this can't be a coincidence, right?"
Gao Zheng's expression was cold, and he understood what Gao Zhong meant, "My son has a suspicion?"
Gao Zhong looked at the family, and looked at them with the vicious eyes unique to Gao Chong, "Among them, there must be one of them who is Neiying, and there is collusion with the Lonely City, and the goal is to directly target the family members of the family, a good plan, if it weren't for my father to arrange the city in advance, I'm afraid it would have suffered." Father, the three hundred knives in the warehouse outside the city were lying there untouched, this thing is too strange, and the child can't figure out whether it is because these three hundred knives were a cover from the beginning or because they were abandoned because of failure, there are so many things that the child can only guess that there is an internal response among them, but he can't tell who it is."
Gao Zheng closed his eyes, "Let's press this for the time being, do it quietly, don't be in a hurry"
Gao Pet replied viciously, "Son!
After a while, the heads of the family walked to the bonfire, and the head of the Xiangyang Ma family, led by them, said to Gao Zheng, "Master Hou, this is a little pension prepared by me and others for the sacrifices of the dart game, talk about a little heart."
Just as Gao was about to speak, Gao Zhong said coldly: "So what do you uncles and uncles mean is that the life of my Gao family dart master can be bought simply with money?"
The head of the family was shocked, but they knew that the person in front of them could not be offended, so they could only smile and say, "Master Gao is laughing, we have prepared a ...... here."
"It's not a matter of money, sacrificing one's life for righteousness, dying clearly, we are naturally duty-bound, but" Gao Pet glanced at them coldly, "If the death is not clear, my Gao family will definitely repay it"
The head of the family didn't know why, so he immediately said, "That's right! These thieves are so hateful! This revenge will be avenged!"
Gao Zheng pressed Gao Pet and arched his hand, "Then, I will accept it on behalf of the families of these dart masters."
Gao Zhong gave up his hand, and did not wait for others to return the courtesy, turned around and left.
Gao Pet slowly walked to the back of the team, Shao Yuan was looking coldly at the bonfire in front of him, and asked, "Ah Pet, what will happen to these dart masters next?"
Gao Zhong stood side by side, and said slowly, "I will send them back to their hometowns and give their families a pension of 800 taels"
Xiao Yu heard "Wow, eight hundred taels! so many?!"
Shaoyuan smiled bitterly, "Is it too much?
Xiaoyu replied: "A person may not be able to save enough money for eight hundred taels in his life!"
Shao Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "Xiaoyu, how can a person's life be bought with simple silver, life and death, even if there is a lot of wealth, there is only one person left in the family, what is the point?"
Xiao Yu was speechless for a while, and Shaoyuan also felt that he was talking too heavily when he saw this, but he didn't want to defend anything, so he sighed, "Go back, Ah Pet, are you going back?"
Gao Pet shook his head coldly, "I have to stay for a while, by the way, Shaoyuan, Xiao Yue'er of Xuanmeng Pavilion ......"
Shaoyuan stopped, "I know, I saw it, I'll go back first"
Satsuki stood stunned and listened to their confused conversation
Shaoyuan roared, "Go Xiaoyue, go" and then said quietly, "Xuanmeng Pavilion"
