Chapter 356: The Carriage and Horses Are Tired
The sun was unusually hot the next day, but in this secluded village full of woods, where the sun could not be seen all day, such a life had long been accustomed to, and no longer had the luxury of a good life to speak of, as long as it was not a serious illness of life and death, these people would not be threatened with death.
Xiao Ge and Liu Yuxiang walked in the village of Yinyi Village, but there was no excitement in their hearts, more heavy emotions, if they lived in this village all the year round, I am afraid that Xiao Ge and Liu Yuxiang would also become like them, living like a year, waiting for the call of death.
The whole village is very peaceful, there is no sound, it looks extremely terrifying, people face to face without words, after a night of healing, plus the treatment of medicinal materials, Liu Yuxiang's internal injuries are almost the same, but it still looks sick, walking beside Xiao Ge, more like an eagle with broken wings, waiting for the master's treatment, Xiao Ge comforted from time to time: "How is your body now, do you feel better."
Liu Yuxiang said: "It's much better, the bowl of medicine last night does have a lot of benefits, that old gentleman is also excellent in art, why do you only stay here, it's a bit overkill, and you can definitely become a generation of famous doctors."
Xiao Ge said: "Everyone has their own ideals and goals, his life has been very happy, with these people by his side, noble personality, not Jianghu warlocks can compare", Liu Yuxiang nodded and responded, watching the pedestrians continue to walk past him, but he couldn't come forward to say hello, they not only couldn't hear, but also couldn't see, and the greeting was even more speechless to them.
Liu Yuxiang said: "They look really pitiful, but we can't help anything, we can only watch them suffer here."
Xiao Ge said: "What you said is very right, so we have to find the big villain back then and see who committed the poison, even these old, weak, sick and disabled people, it is really humane and crazy."
Liu Yuxiang said: "Let's not worry about the sky, let's go out first, staying here won't help much."
The two of them continued along the way they came, and Xiao Ge pointed in the direction ahead, and said, "When we came, we thought it was going in the direction of the north, but this forest is in the opposite direction to what we know, so we will now go in the opposite direction."
Liu Yuxiang carried two pots of water, shook it in front of Xiao Ge, and said: "Look, what is this", Xiao Ge said: "It's water", Liu Yuxiang said: "That's right, this is water, you still think it's a bar."
Xiao Ge shook his head and said: "If it's wine, it's not good, wine can't quench your thirst, although I am a drunkard, but when life and death are at stake, I still choose water, this is not wrong."
Liu Yuxiang said: "This is what the old gentleman handed me before leaving, saying that the Lost Forest is so big, although there is no good food here, only the water is still clear, let us stay on the road to drink, so that we can get out of the Lost Forest."
Xiao Ge said: "I didn't expect the old gentleman to think really thoughtfully, although life here is a little harder, but human affection still exists, although they are physically disabled, but there is no mental disability, some people on the rivers and lakes have all four limbs, but the soul has been disabled", Liu Yuxiang smiled and said: "Fortunately, I am not a person with a mental disability."
After half a day's work, the two of them had walked out of the Lost Forest, obviously very calm, and followed the route to the town, Xiao Ge looked at Liu Yuxiang's body was still very weak, and it happened that there was an inn on Xiao Ge's right hand, Xiao Ge said: "Let's go in and rest, and drink some tea by the way."
Liu Yuxiang nodded slightly, Xiao Ge helped Liu Yuxiang into the inn, as soon as he entered the inn, the shopkeeper went forward and greeted: "Two inns, please."
Xiao Ge and Liu Yuxiang came to a quiet corner of the inn, took two cups, poured tea, and handed one cup to Liu Yuxiang, Liu Yuxiang said very politely: "Xie Lu Xie."
The shopkeeper hurriedly came to the two of them, and said respectfully: "The two inns want to eat something", Xiao Ge said: "Just bring me some simple food, we have to hurry up", the shopkeeper waved the rag in his hand, and hurriedly said: "Okay, please wait, the meal will arrive soon."
Liu Yuxiang picked up the teacup in his hand and began to drink the tea slowly, watching the passers-by come and go, from time to time he would think of the people who were lost in the forest, Xiao Ge asked curiously: "What are you looking at."
Liu Yuxiang shook his head and said, "No, just look around", Xiao Ge also looked in the direction that Liu Yuxiang was looking at, and the two saw a group of people at the same time, these people's clothes Liu Yuxiang was the most impressive, that was Liu Yuxiang's most familiar clothes, the people from Tianmen, there were six people in a group, I didn't expect to see Tianmen's gangs at any time and everywhere in Zhejiang.
The six people also seemed to see Xiao Ge and Liu Yuxiang, and they were still very clear about Liu Yuxiang, and slowly walked towards Xiao Ge and Liu Yuxiang, Xiao Ge suddenly clenched his fists, Liu Yuxiang grabbed Xiao Ge's wrist, this moment of electric shock, Xiao Ge thought: "What do you want to do Liu Yuxiang", Liu Yuxiang whispered: "Wait."
The six people came to Liu Yuxiang and respectfully bowed their hands and said: "Liu Hall Master", Liu Yuxiang stretched out his hand to stop him: "Don't call me Liu Hall Master, I am no longer the Liu Hall Master of Tianmen, don't you know the way."
One of them said: "We know that the Lord of the Willow Hall has left the Gate of Heaven, but we respect the Lord of the Willow Hall as a person, and we are not here to embarrass the Lord of the Willow Hall", Liu Yuxiang asked, "Why is this?"
The man said: "This belongs to Zhejiang, it is far away from Tianmen, and the male gang leader would not have thought that we would see the Liu Tang master this time, besides, your martial arts are so strong, and there is also a head of the Xiaoyao faction by your side, Xiao Gexiao, to accompany you, even if the six of us are not your opponents combined, why should we bother to suffer ourselves."
Liu Yuxiang said: "What do you mean by this, do you have the determination to betray the Heavenly Gate."
The man shook his head and said: "No, we want to betray Tianmen, and we don't have this ability, but Tianmen has undergone major changes now, Tianmen is already the world of killers, more than 100 killings, has spread to all parts of the rivers and lakes, we just want to remind the master of Liutang, don't stay here", Liu Yuxiang said: "Thank you for your righteous words, we must leave here quickly."
The man said: "Okay, let's not disturb the two of you to rest", the six of them brushed their hands at Liu Yuxiang, turned to leave, Xiao Ge said: "I didn't expect them to respect you so much, it seems that your influence in Tianmen is still quite large."
Liu Yuxiang said: "Brother Xiao, are you praising me, or are you laughing at me, no matter what, if you want to be respected by others, you must first learn to respect others, I have not embarrassed the disciples of Tianmen, but I have also done a lot of wrong things in Tianmen over the years, killed many people, and watched others die in the hands of Tianmen, although I have practiced ruthless swordsmanship, but those are not what I want."
Xiao Ge said: "I will slowly forget the past, my hands have also been stained with other people's blood, but we must be worthy of our conscience when we do things now, so it is enough, don't force anything else."
Liu Yuxiang looked at Xiao Ge with affection, smiled slightly, at this time the wine and food on the table have been served, simply three dishes, Jiangnan is the land of fish and rice, fish and rice are naturally indispensable on the table, after the food is full, the two of them dropped the silver two and found a carriage, Liu Yuxiang is reluctant to make a carriage, and would rather ride a horse with Xiao Ge, because the two of them changed to riding horses, starting from Zhejiang, riding horses and whips, and the road to the north must pass through Wuxi City.
Liu Yuxiang said: "Do you want us to go back to Qingyun Villa, so that others don't have to worry about you", Xiao Ge said: "You don't have to worry about these, I have already passed on the book, and I have already told my friends in Qingyun Villa that there are not many people walking in the rivers and lakes, so don't worry more", Liu Yuxiang said: "You are afraid that others will drag you down", Xiao Ge said: "It is also possible".
Passing by the yamen of Wuxi City, I saw that the gate of Wuxi City Mansion was hung with white cloth, and only the dead were hung with white cloth.
Liu Yuxiang said: "This is a dead man, otherwise there will be no white cloth", Xiao Ge said: "The prefect of Wuxi City is a good official, not long ago the water of the Yangtze River rose and almost annihilated the entire Jiangnan, fortunately he was blocked at the forefront, which avoided the flooding in the south of the Yangtze River, I respect him very much, and admire him even more, today I saw a white cloth hanging, something must have happened in his home."
Liu Yuxiang said: "Then let's go in and see, see what is going on, so that your heart can also feel at ease", after Liu Yuxiang's persuasion, Xiao Ge felt very right, although he and the prefect of Wuxi City did not have a big friendship, but his ability to resist the water of the Yangtze River was also seen by the prefect, the two have the same opinion on the affairs of the imperial court, although they can not say that they are friends of life and death, they are also very good friends when they meet in Pingshui.
Xiao Ge dismounted, led the horse to take the Wuxi City Governor's Yamen, at this time out of the palace out of the two catchers, Xiao Ge and Liu Yuxiang tied the horse to the big stone statue in front of the door, the two catchers said: "What are you?"
When Xiao Ge turned his face from behind, one of the two catchers seemed to have recognized Xiao Ge, and said: "I know you, you are Xiao Ge, I know you", the man hurriedly came to Xiao Ge, respectfully bowed his hand and said, his body was slightly bent, Xiao Ge hurriedly helped up the catcher, and said: "Poor brother, I can't do it", the man said: "No, this is how it should be, that day by the Yangtze River, I saw Xiao Zhangmen's divine power, very admired, I have never had the opportunity to know the big hero, I saw it today, and it was really extraordinary."
Xiao Ge arched his hand and said: "It's over, it's just a person from the rivers and lakes, and it's still far from the big hero you said."
Xiao Ge continued: "What happened here, why is there a white cloth in front of the yamen", Na Kuai said: "The prefect's mother has just passed away", Xiao Ge sighed softly, Na Kuai saw Xiao Ge's face with a heavy expression, and said: "The old man was very peaceful when he left, and he was not very painful", Xiao Ge said: "Can we go in and worship and worship."
