Chapter 18: Healing
Jing Chuan's first action after waking up was to reach aside to get the knife, but the knife was not by his side. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
He sat up from the bed at once and looked at the servants standing aside. The servants were obviously frightened by what he had just done, and they all shrank to the side, not daring to speak.
"Where's my knife?" Jing Chuan asked the servants in a rough voice.
One of the servants hurriedly turned around and went out.
Jing Chuan asked again: "Where is my knife?" As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain all over his body. When I looked down, I found that I had gauze tied to several places on my body, and blood was still stained with gauze on my legs.
A servant had the courage to say to Jing Chuan: "Zuo Shenzheng asked the villains to take care of the heroes. ”
"Who is Zuo in politics? What kind of place is this?"
"Hero, this is Jiayuguan. A few days ago, the hero was injured in a hard battle on the school field and has been in a coma for many days. ”
Jing Chuan began to think back to what had happened before, and then he remembered the decisive battle between him and Ma Dai in the school field. He only remembered that after he killed Ma Dai, he fell to the ground, and he didn't know what happened after that, and he thought he was dead.
At this time, a person walked in and said to Jing Chuan with a smile, "Yishi, you have finally woken up." ”
Jing Chuan looked a little familiar with him, but he couldn't remember who he was.
The man said: "The righteous man doesn't remember me? I am Xu Da, who participated in politics in Jiayuguan, and that day on the school ground, you asked me to go and get Ma Dai's waist card." ”
As soon as Xu Da said this, Jing Chuan finally remembered it, and asked, "Why am I here?"
Xu Da said: "After the righteous man killed Ma Dai that day, he was seriously injured and fainted, and I immediately sent someone to send the righteous man to the doctor for treatment. At that time, the righteous man lost too much blood, coupled with a high fever, he was very critical, and he was in a coma for five days and five nights. ”
Jing Chuan didn't seem happy when he heard this, but asked, "Why do you want to save me?"
Xu Da was stunned for a moment and said: "The righteous man helped Jiayuguan get rid of Ma Dai, and Jiayuguan was able to restore the order of the past, all of which are the credit of the righteous man, and it is appropriate to save the righteous man." ”
Jing Chuan sneered: "What does Jiayuguan have to do with me? Ma Dai killed my third brother, and I killed him to avenge my third brother." ”
Xu Da was a little embarrassed, and he couldn't say anything more, so he said: "The righteous man has not recovered from his injuries yet, so he can recuperate in Jiayuguan for a few days." ”
Jing Chuan turned to the edge of the bed and tried to stand up, but as soon as he moved, he pulled the wound on his body, and the pain made him clench his teeth.
Xu Da hurriedly walked over to support him, "The injuries on the righteous man's body have not healed yet, don't act rashly!"
Jing Chuan pushed Xu Da away and said, "I want to leave here!"
"Righteous man, don't, your injuries are very serious, and you should not hurt your spirits. ”
"Don't worry about it! Whoever dares to stop me, I'll kill him!"
Jing Chuan let out cruel words, and Xu Da and several servants didn't dare to speak.
Jing Chuan struggled to put his feet on the ground, and then used his arms to prop his body up. He felt as if the flesh in his body had been slowly cut by a knife, and the pain had penetrated into the bone marrow. He endured the severe pain, stood up, and as soon as he took the first step, as soon as his leg became weak, the whole person fell down, and Jing Chuan screamed in pain.
The servants hurriedly went over to help him to the bed and lay down, Jing Chuan still wanted to leave, but the severe pain in his body had made him unable to move.
Xu Da said: "Righteous don't move, as soon as you move, the wound that has just been reunited will crack again, and the consequences will be more serious, it is better to recuperate with peace of mind first, and then leave when the injury is healed." ”
"Brother Jing!"
Chen Yichuan's voice came from outside the door.
Jing Chuan looked at the door and saw Chen Yichuan and Sun Qing walking in.
The two walked to Jing Chuan's bed, and Sun Qing said, "Brother Jing, you finally woke up!"
Jing Chuan recognized the two of them and said, "Two brothers, why are you here?"
Chen Yichuan said: "Brother Jing, don't you remember, the **** killed Ma Dai and fainted." Thanks to Xu Shenzheng for sending you to medical treatment in time, otherwise it would have been dangerous. ”
Sun Qing added: "Although both of us were injured, neither of them was serious. Brother Jing is so good at kung fu that he killed that Ma Dai by himself, and finally avenged the people of Feiyun Town! Both of us admire Brother Jing very much!"
Jing Chuan said: "The two brothers have won the prize. ”
"Our injuries are almost healed, and we wanted to leave Jiayuguan, but we thought that Brother Jing had not yet woken up, and if we didn't say goodbye, it would be too uninteresting, so we stayed and waited for Brother Jing. ”
When Jing Chuan heard this, he was very moved and said, "Two brothers, although we have never known each other before, after the battle on campus, I am impressed by the people of Feiyun Town. It is Jing's honor to get acquainted with the two brothers!"
Chen Yichuan and Sun Qing both clenched their fists at Jing Chuan.
Xu Da on the side said to Chen Yichuan and Sun Qing: "I don't think it's as good as this, if the two heroes don't have anything important, it's better to stay for a few more days, and then leave Jiayuguan after Jingchuan's injuries have healed." ”
Chen Yichuan and Sun Qing looked at each other and nodded, Sun Qing said, "Okay, it's okay anyway." ”
After careful treatment and care, Jing Chuan's injuries on his body quickly recovered, and he was able to walk around on the ground, but because the injuries were too serious, it was not convenient for his hands and feet to move.
Jing Chuan and Chen Yichuan and Sun Qing laughed and talked about the rivers and lakes on the city tower every day, they only talked about the rivers and lakes, and did not talk much about their past. Jing Chuan only knew that Chen Yichuan was from Henan and Sun Qing was from Nanjing, and both of them had to come to Feiyun Town as a last resort to avoid being chased by the rivers and lakes. Many people in Feiyun Town also came to this place for this reason.
After hearing this, Jing Chuan sighed for a long time and said: "The rivers and lakes are sinister, Jing has already had the idea of retreating, but he is in it, and many things are out of his control. ”
Chen Yichuan said: "What Brother Jing said is true. There are no rivers and lakes in the world, but people's hearts are sinister, harboring evil intentions, and everyone thinks of harming others and benefiting themselves, so there are rivers and lakes. But if you stretch your neck and kill and let others slaughter you, then the world will be even more chaotic. ”
Sun Qing said: "No one wants to sleep in the open all day, wander around, and lick blood from the knife. Everyone wants to live a stable life, but they can't help themselves, step into the rivers and lakes, and if they want to go back, it will be difficult. ”
Sun Qing's words reached the hearts of Jing Chuan and Chen Yichuan, and the three of them were very emotional, looking at the vast desert in the distance, silent.
After a while, Jing Chuan asked the two: "Two brothers, after leaving Jiayuguan, I don't know what to do in the future?"
Chen Yichuan said: "Feiyun Town can't stay, so I can only go back to my hometown." ”
Sun Qing said: "I am a rootless person, I don't stay here, I have a place to stay, continue to walk, wherever I go, I have long been used to it, whether it is life or death, let him go!
Jing Chuan looked at the gray sky in the distance and said, "I don't know yet, I'm like you, let's take one step at a time." ”
Chen Yichuan said: "I have no intention of offending, but I just see that Brother Jing is already old, in fact, I can consider retiring." ”
Jing Chuan said: "I don't want to, but there are still many things that have not been done, how can I retreat?"
Speaking of this, the three of them stopped talking, and each of them was sad in their hearts.
After a while, Sun Qing said, "Don't talk about these sad things, let's talk about something else." Said and smiled at Jing Chuan, "I saw Brother Jing's martial arts on the school field that day, and I really admired it, and it can be said that no one can match it." If Brother Jing hadn't been injured, I'd have to talk to you right now!"
"Hahaha!" Jing Chuan said with a smile, "It's just the head of the family, the rivers and lakes are big, the masters are like clouds, and each has its own unique skills, Jing Chuan can only be regarded as a drop in the ocean." If you want to say that the world's best martial arts, I don't think there is any. No matter how powerful the martial arts are, there are always other martial arts to overcome. ”
Jing Chuan's words made Chen Yichuan and Sun Qing agree with each other, and they also admired Jing Chuan's straightforwardness and humility in their hearts.
Chen Yichuan asked: "Brother Jing, I see that your knife technique is very unique, the strength is sometimes tough, sometimes soft, especially the use of the knife, it seems to change the blade and strength through continuous rotation, which is really exquisite." I have been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and this is the first time I have seen such a knife technique!"
Jing Chuan said: "I think that there are many ways to use the knife, depending on what kind of opponent you meet. If you encounter a person who is proficient in knife changes, if you use a knife strong and rough with a knife, although the strength is there, it is easy for the opponent to see the flaws, and if you are not careful, you will be caught by the opponent. That **** watched Zhu Feilong and Ma Dai make moves, Ma Dai through the change of footwork and knife technique, so that Zhu Feilong's knife could not get close to his body at all, although Zhu Feilong's body method was flexible, but the knife technique was still hard, so Ma Dai saw the flaw. ”
Sun Qing said: "Although the knife is light and heavy, it is still a heavy weapon, and the dexterity of the sword is different, the knife is fast, accurate and ruthless, and it seems to be rough, but the changes are also very subtle. ”
Chen Yichuan said: "I once saw a person whose knife skills were very powerful, and he used a heavy knife, but I saw that he was very light, like a sword, and there were many changes. ”
Jing Chuan nodded: "One of the key ways of martial arts is change, as long as you understand this, one law is passed, all laws are passed, weapons are just means, and if you pass the law, no matter what kind of weapons you use, you can reach the state of being superb." ”
Chen Yichuan and Sun Qing both agreed.
"In the past few days, I have pondered Brother Jing's knife technique, which is also flexible and changeable, and has brought the knife to the extreme. The strength changes almost all the time, and it changes by the strength of the opponent. ”
"My sword skills and Ma Dai's sword skills are both from the same master, but Ma Dai's footwork is faster, and the knife skills are slightly inferior to mine. I don't know who taught him his footwork, but it was really abnormal. If he had been a little more refined in his swordsmanship and combined with his footwork, I might not have been his opponent. ”
Chen Yichuan said: "I seem to have seen such footwork. Three years ago, I went to Jingshi, and when I passed by a forest on the way, I suddenly heard the sound of a fight in the woods, and I quietly hid to the side to watch. I saw a few black-clothed people in the distance surrounding a Taoist man in Tsing Yi, and the man in Tsing Yi used a sword to kill those people within a few moves, which was very neat. I noticed that his footwork, which was as light and varied as a cloud, was very unique. After seeing Ma Dai's footwork that day, I was reminded of the footwork of that Taoist, and their footwork was very similar. Although it has been three years, I have always remembered that footwork in my heart, and it is hard to forget. ”
Sun Qing asked: "Do you mean that Ma Dai's footwork was learned from that person?"
"I don't know much about that. Later, I walked over to see the bodies of the men in black and found that they were Jinyiwei. ”
"Jin Yiwei?"
"Well, I don't know what's going on. ”
When Jing Chuan heard Jinyiwei, he remembered that he had met Jinyiwei after coming to the northwest, but there was no connection between the two things, so he didn't say anything.
The three of them stood on the wall for a while, and when they saw that it was getting dark, they went back to rest.
Two days later, Jing Chuan's injuries were almost healed, and the three of them buried the people of Feiyun Town outside Jiayu Pass. After the memorial, Chen Yichuan and Sun Qing packed their luggage and prepared to leave Jiayuguan.
Jing Chuan saw that the two were leaving, and he thought of Zhang Jian in his heart, and he also planned to leave. So he told the two to leave together, and the two readily agreed.
The three of them packed up their horses and went to say goodbye to Xu Da. Xu Da heard that they were leaving, so he strongly retained them, but they were all determined to go, and Xu Da was not easy to keep. Instead, he said to Jing Chuan, "Can the righteous man take a step to speak?"
Jing Chuan walked to the side with Xu Da and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Zuo's participation in politics?"
Xu Da said: "The righteous man got rid of the scourge of Ma Dai for Jiayuguan, and I am very grateful, but can the righteous man stay for a few more days and do Lord Huo a favor." ”
"Master Huo, what's wrong with him?"
Xu Da sighed and said, "Master Huo was plotted by Ma Dai's villain, and I don't know what poison he had, so he has been bedridden and can't speak. We sought medical treatment in many ways, but there was no way. In the past few days, Lord Huo's condition has worsened, and if he doesn't think of a way to treat him, he may be worried about his life! A few days ago, because the righteous man was injured, he did not mention it. The righteous man walks the rivers and lakes and has seen a lot of knowledge, can you help me take a look?"
Jing Chuan said: "I don't know how to do medicine, so I can't do anything." ”
After hearing this, Xu Da's face turned gloomy, and he didn't say anything anymore.
"Brother Jing, let's go!"
Chen Yichuan and Sun Qing urged Jing Chuan.
Jing Chuan's hand arched towards Xu Da: "Farewell, I've been working hard these days!"
Xu Da seemed to be a little disappointed, but he still said politely: "Righteous man, there will be a period later!"
In fact, after Jing Chuan heard Xu Da say about Huo Qijian's illness, he thought of Chen Mai, and with Chen Mai's ability, it must not be difficult to cure Huo Qijian's illness. But after this killing, he felt physically and mentally exhausted, and now he just wanted to rush back to Shanxi as soon as possible, and did not want to ask anything about it anymore.
The three of them said goodbye to Xu Da, got on horseback, and left Jiayuguan.
When passing through Feiyun Town, Jing Chuan wanted to go back to Feiyun Town to see Bai Zong's house again, so he said to Chen Yichuan and Sun Qing: "Two brothers, you go first, I'll go back to my third brother to have a look, and then follow." ”
The two of them gave up their hands and rode away.
When Jing Chuan walked into Feiyun Town, Feiyun Town was already empty. The streets are littered with debris, covered by sand and dust, and desolate.
Jing Chuan came to Bai Zong's house, looked around, and saw a simple secluded environment. Thinking in his heart that Bai Zong had finally been able to live a quiet life, but he still had no end of his life and died tragically in this desolate place, he couldn't help but feel miserable and miserable in his heart, and he burst into tears.
When he wept, he remembered the dream and the words that the three senior brothers had said to him.
"Third brother, put down the sword, do more good deeds from now on, and accumulate some virtue for yourself, so that you can alleviate the sins on your body. ”
The words rang in his ears again.
He stood in the dimly lit room, thought for a while, and then walked out of the house, mounted his horse, and went out of Feiyun Town.
After leaving Feiyun Town, Jingchuan quickly ran towards Jiayuguan!
