Finally, there was no danger to escape, and everyone went all the way north without stopping. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Due to the lack of horses, everyone had to redeploy. Junxuan and Rui'er rode the same horse, and Yi Dan and Youming rode the same horse. The difference is that Junxuan sits behind Rui'er to protect her. But Yi Dan let Youming sit in front.

In order not to damage Rui'er's wound again, everyone walked slowly.

Youming was on horseback, turned around and asked Yi Dan behind him: "Senior sister, why don't you let me sit in the back?"

Yi Dan said: "I am your senior sister, you are younger than me, of course I have to protect you well." ”

Youming said: "But I'm already an adult, you can't still treat me as a child." Besides, if two people ride horses, aren't they all men sitting in the back and women sitting in the front?

Yi Dan smiled: "Senior brother, don't worry so much, okay?" Miss Rui'er, she was injured, and Brother Junxuan was afraid that she would fall from Ma Bei, so he let her sit in the front, so that he could protect her." ”

Youming said: "That is to say, are you protecting me like this? No, I won't do it, I want to sit in the back, I want to protect you." ”

"Huh" Youming called, so that the horse stopped, and he dismounted and stopped.

Yi Dan asked, "Senior brother, what are you going to do?"

Youming said: "I'm going to sit in the back." ”

Yi Dan shook his head helplessly and said, "Hey, look at your stupidity"

With that, Yi Dan moved forward and said, "Come up." ”

Youming happily got on the horse again and sat down behind Yi Dan contentedly.

Yi Dan turned around and said, "You should be satisfied now, right?"

Youming pulled the reins and patted the horse's buttocks vigorously, and the horse galloped out.

"Hey, junior brother, what are you going to do?" Yi Dan asked in surprise.

"Senior sister, you see that the weather is so good today, let's run together for a while. Youming rode on the back of a running horse and hugged Yi Dan and said.

"Senior brother, don't do this, they are still behind. ”

"It's okay, let's run a little bit first. After that, Youming turned back to Jiao Gongxian and shouted, "Hey, the one in the back." Let's go ahead and explore the way, and you can follow slowly. Drive..."

Against the backdrop of the blue sky and white clouds and green trees and red flowers, the two of Youming Yidan rode on horses and ran in the spring fields. I forgot the tiredness and discomfort of the past few days, and I felt very comfortable.

After running for a while, Yi Dan shouted: "Senior brother, stop quickly, they are still behind, and they haven't caught up." ”

Youming said: "What are you afraid of, they will follow." Senior sister, you see that the scenery here is so beautiful, let's run a little longer. ”

Yi Dan said: "No, the two of us are too heavy, you see that the horses can't stand it anymore, let's come down and rest." ”

Youming looked at a town in front of him, so he said, "Senior sister, there seems to be a town in front, there should be doctors here, let's wait for them here, right?"

Yi Dan said: "Okay, then let's stop here and wait for them, just let the horses rest." ”

The two dismounted to rest, and Youming plucked a dandelion from the ground, held it high and blew it into the sky.

Yi Dan reached out to pick up the dandelion's umbrella, and the two of them were playing and chasing happily like they had been in Lingxi Valley when they were children.

Youming looked at Yi Dan's face chasing dandelion and said, "Senior sister, do you know, I'm so scared, we almost got separated this time." When I'm alone with everything, I think of you very specially. ”

Yi Dan said: "Well, I'm also a junior brother." When I know you've been captured, I'm always worried about your safety. I can't wait to give myself two slaps, how could I be so careless and lose you. ”

"Really, Senior Sister, I'm gone, are you really worried about me?" Youming looked at Yi Dan with expectant eyes.

"Of course, you know what? Except for Master and Master, you are the person I care about in the world, and you are lost, how can I not be in a hurry?" Yi Dan said.

"Well, I believe what you say. Youming smiled sweetly.

Yi Dan said: "If we get separated in the future, let's leave a mark along the way, so that it is convenient for each other to find each other, what do you say?"

Youming: "Okay, then what mark should we leave behind?" Youming thought for a while and said: "That's it, since we both grew up in Lingxi Valley, let's use Lingxi as a mark, right? Draw an arrow in the direction behind the word, so that you know which direction each other has gone, how about this method?"

Yi Dan said: "Okay, this is a good idea. When did you become so smart?"

Youming said: "Senior sister, you make fun of me, was I stupid before?"

Yi Dan laughed and said: "You weren't stupid before, you were stupid, haha, haha"

Youming changed his words and asked, "By the way, senior sister, you just dealt with that Jiang He Zhong, and the martial arts you used were so powerful." But why can he break your moral swordsmanship?"

Yi Dan was puzzled for a moment and said, "This, I don't know how this happened." It stands to reason that Master Changsun's swordsmanship has not been taught to outsiders..."

You Ming said: "Could it be that what that person said is true? This moral sword technique is originally a sword cultivation technique?"

"No, I don't believe that's the case. He must have been mistaken, and it could never be true. Master Changsun, his old man is so kind and noble, how could he be the one who bought the sword cultivation spectrum from Zhu Wen in the first place? I don't believe that this is the case. Yi Dan looked embarrassed, but he couldn't hide the contradictions in his heart.

"Senior sister, don't you deceive yourself, okay? Actually, you already have the answer in your heart, right?" Youming asked again and again.

"No, I still don't believe that's the case. Yi Dan refused.

Youming thought for a while and said, "Senior sister, I have read a lot of history books and classics, and I understand some truths. In fact, throughout the ages, there have been many heroes who are imperfect, and they all have some shortcomings to a greater or lesser extent. As the saying goes, no one is perfect, and no gold is barefoot. It is precisely because of this that many people will strive to move in that better direction after experiencing a lot of hardship. If a person is very bad, then he will not feel the beauty of this world. In the same way, if a person has a perfect life and no regrets, then this person may not be so cute, don't you say?"

Yi Dan looked at Youming's eyes, nodded lightly and said, "Well, maybe you're right. People are not afraid to make mistakes, and they are not afraid to make mistakes when they were young. As long as you know your mistakes and can continue to learn from the experience of progress, such a life will be more fun to recall when you are old. You say yes, junior brother. ”

"Yes, yes, that's what I mean, you see I said such a big circle, and I didn't make it clear. It's still senior sister, you are amazing, concise and to the point. Emperor Youming said.

"Brother, thank you for comforting me! Thank you for telling me this, I thought you only knew how to read, and you didn't understand anything. It seems that I have neglected you, but in fact, you know everything in your heart, but you are just not good at expressing it. Thank you very much, I feel much better after listening to these words. Yi Dan looked into Youming's eyes and expressed his heart's gratitude.

"Senior sister, why are you still so polite to me? I know you too well, although you are very smart, but when it comes to the people you care about, you will be out of proportion. Do you think I'm right?" asked Youming.

Yi Dan said: "Well, junior brother, you are right. You and Master and Mrs. are all people I care about, as well as Master Changsun, and I have met so many good friends along the way. If someone hurts you and slanders you, I will be saddened in my heart. ”

"Well, I understand, let's not separate again from now on, okay?" Youming said as he looked into Yi Dan's eyes.

"Okay," Yi Dan nodded.

Just as the two were talking, Youming suddenly looked up and saw a familiar figure not far ahead. The man rode out of the valley of Changqing Mountain, and led a group of men and horses all the way to the town in front.

Youming said to Yi Dan: "Senior sister, look, isn't that person the same Yang Tingyi we met on Qiongya Island a few days ago?

Yi Dan looked in the direction of Youming's finger, and sure enough, it was Yang Tingyi riding on a horse, hurrying towards the town in front.

Yi Dan said: "That's right, it's him." The other night, I ran into Brother Jiao with him. He is a general under Qu Chengmei, the envoy of the Jinghai Festival, and recently Annan has been busy preparing for war with Champa in the south, and he is also ordered to raise food and grass everywhere. The last time I grabbed food in Qiongya, it was all for this matter. ”

Youming said loudly: "Hmph, how can this be reasonable. Isn't it a bit too much for him to do this? Why did Annan fight with Champa and rob the people of Qiongya? This behavior is different from that of bandits and robbers?"

That Yang Tingyi heard Youming's scolding from a distance, and turned around to find the existence of Yi Dan and the others.

Yang Tingyi was riding on a horse, holding a war knife in his hand, and when he saw Yi Dan and the others, he paused, and the anger in his eyes spontaneously appeared.

"Oh no, he seems to have discovered us," Yi Dan said.

Youming said: "What are you afraid of him doing? If you can't fight again, he is not your opponent at all." ”

Yi Dan reminded: "But don't forget, this is on other people's territory. ”

"Oh yes, I almost forgot about that. He's so despicable and shameless, if he wants to play some shameless tricks, we won't be able to eat and walk around. Youming said.

"That's right, don't worry, let's see what he wants to do. Yi Dan said.

After Yang Tingyi found Yi Dan and the others, he clenched his sword and wanted to rush forward.

At this time, the soldier on the side said: "General Yang, the war is urgent, let's go quickly, we can't delay the emergency military situation." ”

Yang Tingyi listened to the soldier's words, glared at Yi Dan and the others viciously, turned his horse's head and continued to run towards the town in the north.

"Senior sister, look, why did Yang Tingyi leave again?" You Ming said as he looked at the dust raised by Yang Tingyi's horse's hooves.

Yi Dan looked at the eager horse's hooves and said, "Seeing that he is in such a hurry, if I guess correctly, it should be that the battle is about to start ahead." ”

At this time, Jiao Gongxian and Junxuan also rushed up dissatisfied.

Du Qian rode over on a horse and asked, "Miss Yi, you are running so fast, you are gone in a blink of an eye." ”

"Yes, it's because the horses have good foot strength, how are they, have they all followed?" asked Yi Dan.

Du Qian said: "Well, they all followed." But I see that your two horses do look a little different from other horses. ”

Yi Dan said: "Yes, these two horses were given by the Mu Master of the Tianya Sect on Qiongya Island a few days ago. It is said that this horse was crossed with wild water horses, and has been transformed for generations, and it is not only heat-resistant, but also able to carry people and swim in deep water for several hours. ”

Du Qian said in surprise: "Is it? It turns out that there are really such magical water horses in the world? No wonder I wonder, why do they have to stick into the puddle when they see it." ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "That's right, I have also heard of this kind of water horse, they can conquer rivers, lakes and seas, crisscrossing places. You can even run all the way from Lingnan to Annam. ”

Junxuan asked: "The road from Lingnan to Annam, the rivers, lakes and seas are intricate. Even if it is a fierce iron horse, I am afraid that when you get here, you will be looking forward to sighing. ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "That's right, this is Annan's unique advantage, many times in the past, when the Central Plains was in turmoil, we didn't have chaos here." ”

Junxuan said: "Of course, this is also Annan's hidden danger. The reason why the current Jinghai Festival makes it want to break away from the North and stand on its own is because of these natural barriers, so that they have nothing to fear. Thinking about the foundation created by our ancestors for thousands of years, I am afraid that it will fall apart from now on, and it is a pity to think about it. ”

Du Gao said: "On this issue, I don't think it matters. Regardless of whether Cochin is a northern or southern subsidence, we will do our best to maintain its integrity. We have taken root here, thrived and thrived here for more than a thousand years, and we have long regarded this place as our home. I only hope that the wind and rain will be smooth, the country and the people will be safe, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. ”

Du Qian said: "That's right, I think so too. ”

Yi Dan said: "Well, the two of you are right, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the world will always be peaceful, this is what we will always pray for." But Brother Jiao, I saw your uncle Yang Tingyi just now, hurrying north from here. Did something important happen?"

Jiao Gongxian: "I don't know, it should also have something to do with preparing for war, let's go up to the town in front of us."

Yi Dan and Qiao'er helped Rui'er together, and the group entered the town in front.

After several investigations, several people came to the streets of the town, and saw that the place was almost full of women, old people and children. Adult strong men, almost none of them were seen, occasionally one or two, still with disabled legs and crutches. But it was scrambling by several young women, and it looked very sought-after.

After walking for a while, Youming finally couldn't help but ask: "Brother Jiao, the folk customs here are all men in charge of housework, and women come out to do things outside?"

Jiao Gongxian said: "Where is this? Since ancient times, it has been a thousand-year-old custom of our Han people. The reason why this is the case here is because the adult men here are all conscripted and transferred to the front to prepare for war. So only these old people, children and women remain. ”

Youming nodded and said, "Oh, no wonder, why hasn't an adult man seen it in this town." It seems that the war is really bad, and every family has life and death. ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "Who wants to fight? The common people are forced to be helpless. ”

At this time, Junxuan grabbed an old man on the side of the road and asked, "May I ask the old man, where is there a doctor here?"

The old man said: "There is a war ahead, and the doctors have all been requisitioned to the barracks, and now there is only one doctor in the whole town." ”

Jiao Gongxian asked, "Then where is this doctor now?"

The old man said: "You go forward and turn left again, and you see a group of old people lining up in a long line, and there you are." ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "Okay, thank you, uncle." ”

Everyone walked in the direction indicated by the old man, and sure enough, they saw many old people lined up in a long line.

Yi Dan asked the last old man in the queue: "May I ask the old man, are you queuing up here to see the doctor?"

The old man coughed and said, "Yes, girl, you also come to see the doctor?"

Yi Dan said: "Yes, my friend is injured, let's go to the doctor to show her." ”

The old man looked at Rui'er's blood-stained clothes on her shoulders, as well as her weak expression, and hurriedly said, "Oh, I see that this girl is not lightly injured, you go to the front and ask, can you ask first." ”

Rui'er said: "But so many elders are lined up, it's not good for us to catch up, right?"

The old man said: "Girl, you are in a hurry and can't be delayed." We're all old sick, so it's okay to wait a little longer. Go ahead, don't delay the injury. ”

Rui'er said: "Then thank you uncle!"

Yi Dan helped Rui'er to the front of the team, only to see that there was a commotion in front of him, and it was already a mess.

Yi Dan asked an old woman beside him: "Grandma, please, what's going on, why is it so noisy?"

The old grandmother said: "We all came to see Dr. Ji for medical treatment, and the line was originally good, but just now a person forced his way in." It's been almost an hour, and we haven't come out yet, and we haven't heard any movement, so we're all in a hurry. ”

When Yi Dan and the others heard this, they began to have doubts.

At this time, in Doctor Ji's room, Na Jiang Ruzhong was holding a sword on the doctor's neck, forcing him to bandage his wounds. (To be continued.) )
