It was night, and the smell of bitter medicine was in the air.

For the drowsy Yao Ximu, the breath was weak and vague before, but it gradually became stronger and clearer, and the bitterness became a continuous posture, perseveringly mixed into his sense of smell.Yao Ximu recognized the source of the bitterness, frowned, and then opened his eyes.

"Are you awake? It's time to drink medicine." Wu Jin put the medicine bowl aside, helped Yao Ximu up, put a pillow behind him, and let him sit on the head of the bed half-recumbent and half-lying.

Yao Ximu listened intently to these passages, and seemed to be trying hard to identify them. The world in front of him regained clarity, but he still looked at Wu Jin in a daze, with a bewildered expression, and he was unwilling to speak.

"Stupid?" Wu Jin rubbed his ears with a smile, picked up the medicine bowl and blew on it, and picked up a spoon to feed him: "Open your mouth."

Yao Ximu glared at him, turned his head away, and refused to pay attention to him.

"Little Fatty." Wu Jin put down the medicine bowl and restrained her smile: "You don't even recognize Master?"

Yao Ximu turned over and lay down, pulled the quilt to cover his head and face, and said in a low voice: "You and the young master..." He changed his words: "Combine with Jiang Wanzhou and the others to lie to me, and I don't care about you."

"Sigh." Wu Jin slumped his shoulders and sighed bitterly: "Little Fatty, you and Song Yizhi teamed up to lie to me. I didn't even blame you, but you just ignore me." He will Yao Ximu dug it out from under the quilt, revealing a hairy head, and said with emotion: "When we first met, you were so young, and when you saw me falling over, you called Master. I will teach you martial arts, and you Daidai, you are angry with him now, and you don’t even want Master?"

"No..." Yao Ximu remembered Wu Jin's teaching and care for him, and he was no longer angry, and said, "Of course you are still my master." But he was still annoyed at his deception to himself: "But why did you Don't tell me the truth, you all know who the enemy is, but you want to keep one of them from me!"

"Drink the medicine first, and the master will tell you slowly, good boy."

Wu Jin coaxed him to drink the medicine, let him lie down, and lifted the quilt to check his wounds.

Jiang Wanzhou didn't hit hard, she was just trying to force him to attack, she didn't intend to hurt anyone, the sword energy just cut the skin on Yao Ximu's waist, leaving a long gash.

"It's not too serious, it will be fine in two days." Wu Jin put the quilt back on and touched his face: "Little Fatty, your internal injuries are a bit serious, I have to take care of you slowly."

"I was so angry."

"Getting angry hurts your body, you are so angry at such a young age?"

"Huh." Yao Ximu sneered: "Master, you can stand and talk like this without pain in your back. You know what's going on. Luomei Villa already knew that my parents were going to be killed, and they didn't come to rescue me." Forget it, I still took advantage of the fire to rob. I don’t know what the map of the treasure is. It was originally intended to be brought to my adoptive father. They stole it halfway for fear that I would not give it to me. Jiang Wanzhou tricked me into becoming a dead soldier, not letting me avenge my family, and just working my life for him...how can I not be angry! If it were you, wouldn't you be angry?!"

The more he talked, the more angry he became, and the circles of his eyes were red again.Seeing the excitement he said, Wu Jin hurriedly said: "I just said don't get angry, why did you say that again?"

Yao Ximu's nose was sore, trying not to shed tears, he choked up and said, "Which one in Luomei Villa doesn't think I'm a fool?"

"No, who dares to treat you as a fool." Wu Jin stretched out his sleeves to wipe his tears: "It's fine for others, Master, don't you believe it? Listen to what I tell you, will you listen?"

Yao Ximu raised his sleeve and wiped his nose: "Say it."

"I only met Jiang Jingshen, the owner of Luomei Village, because of my master. Jiang Jingshen suffers from leprosy. She said that she was practicing in closed doors, but in fact she couldn't get in touch with people."

"Why? Is the leprosy very severe?"

Wu Jin moved Yao Ximu into the bed, and sat on the bed herself, intending to have an open and honest chat with Yao Ximu.

"Leprosy can't be cured. It can only be controlled by drugs to relieve pain, and it can also be contagious. Before that, my master healed him. After the master passed away, it was me. At that time, Jiang Jingshen's condition was already serious. In order to stay I, gave me the title of envoy of Qingyang. The back mountain of Luomei Villa is very suitable for growing herbs, so I simply moved here with Xiao Shuyu and stayed in the village to treat his illness. So I, envoy of Qingyang, It is different from the other three. As for me, apart from cooking herbs, curing diseases and saving lives, I just practice Kungfu and take care of my disciples, and I don’t participate in the discussion of the villa’s affairs. , came here to take refuge."

What Wu Jin said was true. Yao Ximu understood his character and believed that what he said was the truth. He tilted his head into Wu Jin's arms, and he acted coquettishly: "Then you found out later, and you didn't tell the truth." I."

"I know it was after you went to Crane Valley. He Si told me that Jiang Jingshen has always wanted the treasure of the Qionglang Sect. Hey, that treasure is the poppy. The ghost poppy cultivated by the barbarians of the Qionglang Sect is even more effective. It is strong and can greatly relieve the pain of leprosy. Since Jiang Jingshen was ill, he has been taking opium made of poppy for pain relief, but it has no effect after that. He is very difficult and pitiful.”

Wu Jin patted his head: "I don't know why your father has that map, the fight with Taishi Yu, and how Jiang Jingshen arranged it. Your Fourth Uncle He went to avenge your father , entered Jinling several times, but failed and was injured. I went to Crane Valley before to heal his injuries. Grand Master Yu is surrounded by experts. We are afraid that you will find out that you are guilty and run to die. Tell you."

Yao Ximu looked at him with bright eyes, and Wu Jin lowered his head and pinched his nose: "Little heartless, now that you know, are you still angry with me?"

"Master." Yao Ximu took his arm: "You and Fourth Uncle He really love me."

"Yes, but what about you." Wu Jin stretched out his finger and poked him on the head: "You betrayed me in front of Song Yizhi, taught him to pretend to be sick, and coaxed me to make a trip for nothing."

"If you don't tell me, I can only do this."

"Well, if I hadn't made that trip, I wouldn't have left the villa to see you suffer such serious injuries."

"I'll be better soon."

"The injury on the body will be very fast, what about your heart?"

"In your heart?" Yao Ximu pretended to be indifferent: "There is no injury in my heart, only hatred."

Wu Jin pulled away and left, tucking the quilt for him: "Okay, that's it, sleep well."

"Master." Yao Ximu grabbed his sleeve: "What place is this?"

"I don't know where your thief cat is looking for. I was abducted by him on the way back to the villa. Let me save you."

Yao Ximu burst into tears: "Master, you and elder brother are both my relatives."

It turned out that Li Huimao was worried about Yao Ximu going alone, and followed him along the road until he saw him passed out in the snow covered with blood.He found a nearby family and paid money to borrow their house to heal Yao Ximu's injuries.

Yao Ximu suffered an internal injury, and his breath was extremely unstable. Li Huimao didn't dare to heal his injury rashly, and only helped him adjust his internal breath.Li Huimao was thinking about inviting a doctor to take a look, when he met Wu Jin before he had walked far on the main road.

Wu Jin checked Yao Ximu's situation, and ran to grab the medicine. It was a coincidence that Yao Ximu woke up as soon as the medicine was ready.

At this time, Li Huimao watched Wu Jin come out with an empty medicine bowl, and hurriedly asked: "Mr. Wu, how is Xiao Ximu?"

"No big problem, I drank the medicine and fell asleep." Wu Jin went to the kitchen, put out the charcoal fire, poured the remaining medicine juice in the pot into a bowl, and said, "My chubby is easy to coax." He looked up Looking at Li Huimao, he asked, "I don't know something, you and him." Wu Jin clenched his hands and gestured with his thumbs together: "What kind of relationship is it?"

"No." Li Huimao waved his hand: "Mr. Wu, don't mess with the mandarin ducks. Xiaoximu and I have a good relationship, so we sworn brothers. It's not that kind of relationship. The person in his heart is not me."

"Oh." Wu Jin sighed, "I hope it's you."

"It's better not to." Li Huimao was a little embarrassed, rubbing his nose, unable to imagine the scene where he and Yao Ximu were together.He still likes the kind of proactive, um, rather dissolute ones.Being with a good boy like Xiaoximu is not a disaster for others.

"Mr. Wu, I have something to explain to you. I still have something to do, but Xiaoximu can't leave it here. Now I'm handing him over to you, so I'm relieved." Li Huimao bowed his hands and did it. Yili: "The mountain is high and the road is far away, there is a time for regret."

He left without saying where he was going.Yao Ximu woke up to look for him, but he had long since disappeared.After drinking the medicine, Wu Jin began to coax him back to the villa.

Yao Ximu will not go back even if he dies.

Wu Jin persuaded him earnestly: "It's poor and remote here, it's not easy to get medicine. I just boiled these for you, and I walked thirty miles to the market to buy them. And you eat other people's food here, live in other people's food. I have to give money for everything. I will run out of money on me, and I really have no choice but to go back."

Yao Ximu turned his head and remained silent.

"I know you are upset and don't want to see Jiang Wanzhou. What's the matter, you live in Houshan Yaolu, you won't meet him. If he comes to you, you just hide away. Think about it , Your body is important. Your internal injury is a bit serious, and it is far from enough to rely on internal strength alone. If you don’t use medicine, it will leave the root cause of vomiting blood. You don’t want to vomit blood when you get angry in the future, right? You come back with me, I will use it The medicine in the medicine nursery is much easier, Xiao Shuyu is also in the medicine house, you haven’t seen him for so long, don’t you miss him? With him to help take care of you, Master will be more relaxed, and you will get better sooner , you also want to get better soon, don't you?"

"I won't go back." Yao Ximu said dryly, "I'm going to take revenge, so I won't go back."

"Little Fatty." Wu Jin patted his head: "You are obedient, your body is not well maintained, how can you take revenge? A man can bend and stretch, why are you awkward? Besides, he was the one who apologized to you first, why did you avoid him? ah?"

When Yao Ximu heard this, he came back to his senses: That's right, he was the one who was sorry for me first, why did I avoid him?What happened to eating his and using his?Everything on me is thanks to him, why can't I go to his villa to recuperate?

"Master, you are right." Yao Ximu nodded: "He is the one who is sorry for me, I will go back with you."

Walking halfway, Yao Ximu remembered what Jiang Wanzhou said before, and regretted it: "No, Master, I have decided not to look back, and I will be laughed at by him if I go back, I don't want to see him."

"If you don't want to see it, don't see it." Wu Jin squatted down in front of him, turned around and said, "Your meridians are stagnant, and you have injuries on your body, so don't be too tired. Come up, Master will carry you on your back."

"No, I'm not a child anymore, it's very heavy, I'm afraid it will crush Master."

"Come up quickly, my teacher is afraid that your wound will open halfway and hurt you to death. Be obedient, this is an order."

"Okay." Yao Ximu obediently leaned on Wu Jin's back. Wu Jin slightly pushed him up, and turned his head to talk to him: "You look tall, but you turned out to be a bone, light very."

"Then don't call me fat in the future."

"I called you skinny?"

"No." Yao Ximu hugged Wu Jin's neck tightly and called out, "Master."

"Ok?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to call you."

Wu Jin chuckled, knowing that he was acting like a baby, so she didn't speak.With him on his back, he walked like flying on the icy and slippery road, all the way back to the back mountain.
