Rebellious officials bow their heads

Xu Yan pulled him up, Ye Liuzhou touched the ground and breathed a sigh of relief.

The night was dark, the howling cool wind gradually eased, and the occasional chirping of insects came from deep in the grass.

Ye Liuzhou asked, "Where is this?"

"Yujun Mountain in Youzhou." Xu Yandao, "I've temporarily got rid of the imperial army, but the roads and villages in this area are all spies from Jinyiwei. It's too dangerous to go down the mountain. Let's rest here for a few days."

"Now, heal your arrow wound first." He avoided the arrow pierced into Ye Liuzhou's right shoulder, and tore off the robe along the edge, leaving the sleeves scattered. Xu Yan took a look and found the exposed skin on his shoulder. On the top, there is a pattern that looks like a beast's body, half of which is stained with blood, and half of it is hidden in the left-hand skirt, "What kind of Zhaqing is that?"

Ye Liuzhou sat cross-legged on the grass, put his hands on his knees, smiled slightly, and replied, "Shrimp."

Naturally, Xu Yan didn't take it seriously. He tore off another clean corner of his robe, wrapped the gathered herbs in it and ground it into juice, then pressed Ye Liuzhou's shoulder with one hand, and grabbed the arrow with the other, "I pulled it out."

Ye Liuzhou nodded.

Xu Yan's movements were quick, and the moment the arrow rubbed against the flesh and was pulled out, the blood blocked inside splashed away.Ye Liuzhou's body shook slightly, there was no blood on his face, and his lips turned white.

Xu Yan applied the medicinal herb to his wound, wrapped it with a cloth several times and bound it up, "That's it."

Ye Liuzhou leaned back, leaning against the rock, his breath filled with the bitter smell of medicine, he asked, "Did you learn medicine from Zhou Yuan?"

Xu Yan thought for a while, and said: "Both Zhou Yuan and I were born in Baijumen. When we were not learning martial arts on the mountain, we often watched him go around picking herbs, and learned a little from him."

Ye Liuzhou opened his eyes slightly, "Is that Baijumen?"

Although he lived in the deep palace for a long time, he still heard about this mysterious Jianghu sect. During the reign of the late emperor, there were many masters in the sect.At that time, he also advised the late emperor, until more than ten years ago, he gradually declined and hid himself from the world.

"Well, the Heiji we went to yesterday, the people inside are the former intelligence organization established by Baijumen, which is now abandoned." Xu Yan turned the Heitian stone ring on his left hand, which has extremely delicate mechanisms, It allows the silver wire to be retracted freely in the blink of an eye.

Ye Liuzhou asked: "You are studying martial arts at Baijumen, what is it like inside?"

"A barren mountain, a few thatched huts, the master went early, and left a last word that if he can defeat all the disciples in the sect, he will be the master of the sect."

Ye Liuzhou asked with interest: "Then what happened?"

"At that time, the only disciples of Baiju Gate were 13 people. They all went down the mountain, and no one competed for the position of the leader of the gate. Life on the mountain was poor, and the hut was leaking when it rained. You had to hunt by yourself, and the mountain animals fled in all directions. There was not even a pheasant. Plant vegetables. If you don't pay attention, you will be stolen."

Xu Yan went on to say: "The seniors have learned a lot, each of them has eccentricities, and each other can't bear it. Once the master is gone, they can go down the mountain. They didn't stay for a moment, they all left."

Ye Liuzhou couldn't help laughing, "I heard the rumors, I thought the carved beams and painted buildings of Baijumen were comparable to the imperial palace."

Xu Yandao: "The rumors are always exaggerated. When the master passed away, Zhou Yuan still thought that there were some disciples who couldn't bear this day and deliberately poisoned him to death."

Ye Liuzhou laughed so hard that his wound was touched, and the two of them were in a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere in the night breeze.

Xu Yan looked into the distance and said, "What about you? What are you going to do?"

Ye Liuzhou dozed off a little bit, he half-closed his eyes, feeling his consciousness drifting away, and his wound was numb, "What should I do?"

"Where is your home? When the limelight passes, I'll take you back." Xu Yan looked at him.

"Are you going to ask for the 360 ​​five taels of silver?" Ye Liuzhou picked up his sleepy consciousness. Although he couldn't see it, he still smiled in Xu Yan's direction, "Unfortunately, I don't have a home."

Xu Yan paused, "What about your family?"

"No..." Ye Liuzhou lowered his voice, "Why am I so sleepy?"

Xu Yan looked at him for a moment, then said: "Toad Su, Yangjinhua, Asarum, Chuanwu, Caowu can relieve pain and numbness, but the side effect will make people drowsy."

"Hmm..." Ye Liuzhou replied vaguely, and fell asleep with his eyelids glued together.

On the second day, in the early summer, the mountains and fields were in full bloom, unknown flowers and plants were everywhere, and the warm wind was wrapped in flying catkins, and the eyes were full of greenery.

After Ye Liuzhou woke up with the ground as a bed, all the bones in his body were creaking and screaming. He saw the swaying light leaking from the gaps in the leaves, closed his eyes and opened them again, adapted to the light, and got up to find Xu Yan.

The stream was gurgling, crystal clear, with ripples of sunlight flowing, the horses were tied by the tree, and Xu Yan was sitting on a stone pile with his sleeves rolled up, holding a Mo knife in his hand, and was cutting a piece of bamboo.

He lowered his head, his expression was focused, the arc of his nose was straight, half of his eye sockets were sunk in shadow, and half of his pupils were illuminated by the sun like amber.

When Ye Liuzhou saw the water, he kicked off his shoes, ran over and jumped into it, and the water splashed everywhere with a splash.

Xu Yanzao backed away when he approached, and the water did not fall on him, and threw the bamboo stick in his hand to Ye Liuzhou.

Ye Liuzhou raised his hand to catch it, and found that the abrupt part of the bamboo stick had been worn away. He cupped his fists at Xu Yan, blinked and smiled, "Thank you."

Xu Yan lit a fire by the stream and cooked the caught fish. After Ye Liuzhou was hungry for a whole day, he thought it was extremely delicious. When it was cold, I ran to the shade of the tree and leaned lazily while eating fruit.

Xu Yanze has not been idle all this time. He made some tree branches into a bed frame, half an inch above the ground, fixed them with hemp ropes, lined them up one by one, and laid them with banana leaves to let the leaves flow. Zhou thought he could build a house.

Until night fell, Xu Yan lit some wormwood to fume away the mosquitoes, and the two slept in their clothes. Ye Liuzhou couldn't sleep, and found that every night when he couldn't see, when he talked to Xu Yan, the other party would always respond, so he called Voice: "Xu Yan."

"Huh?" He took the pearl out of the box and placed it on the top of the couch, the faint glow scattered in the night, "Can you see it?"

Ye Liuzhou lay on his back with one arm under his head, eyes open, and did not answer this question, but asked, "When this is over, will you return to Yanjing?"

"I won't go back for the time being." Xu Yan said, "This time there is too much commotion. It is estimated that the city has been stared to death by the forbidden army."

Ye Liuzhou smiled and said: "I thought you didn't worry about the consequences at all, the palace came and went freely, the Pearl searched for things, went out of the city to kill the Quartet, then where do you plan to go next?"
