Buddha

This bamboo forest should have existed for a long time. Looking up, the bamboo leaves at the top hang down, covering the sky above, and the light in the bamboo forest looks a bit dim.Lu Chi stepped on the thick fallen leaves, and there was a slight rustling sound between the soles of his boots and the fallen leaves.Xie Lannan continued to move his hands after hearing the sound, without turning around.

Lu Chi stood still in front of him and called his name.He took a breath, his voice trembling: "You, what are you doing?"

Xie Lannan held the shapeless mass of meat in his hand and looked up, his eyes turned completely red, faint, like a magnificent red emerald.

"I used to think about what a human heart looks like, but now it seems that it's nothing more than a pile of meat." He laughed, his eyebrows and eyes flirtatious.

Lu Chi clasped his wrist, his internal breath was disordered, and his true energy swam violently through his meridians.

"You're crazy."

Qingyu's body could no longer be seen as a human being, and was dismembered by Xie Lannan.He dropped the piece of meat in his hand, his hands were bloody, he didn't seem to understand Lu Chi's words, he squinted his eyes and thought for a while before saying, "Maybe it's crazy."

Xie Lannan squatted down, the young man's thin body huddled together, showing a weak posture.

"Why didn't Master leave? Now is the best time. With my appearance, there is no way to catch you if you leave."

With a cold face, Lu Chi tapped the acupuncture points on his back: "Calm, calm!"

Xie Lannan was still talking to himself: "But if the master leaves, there is nowhere to go." He laughed softly, "I will pretend to be you and break through Tai Nianzong's mountain guard formation, and kill Caesar I'm afraid your brothers and nephews still hate you now."

He grabbed Lu Chi's hand and laughed more and more wildly.

"Master, you have nowhere to go except me."

Lu Chi remained silent, his fingers were still pressing his acupoints, and traces of peaceful qi were transmitted from his fingertips to Xie Lannan's body.He was given agarwood powder by Xie Lannan, but recently he could feel his internal strength recovering bit by bit, and up to now, it has been about [-] to [-]%.He led his true energy, trying to channel the disordered breath in Xie Lannan's body, but Xie Lannan's breath was too strong, and in just a few breaths, Lu Chi was already sweating profusely.

"Master, I will die with my breath rebellious." Xie Lannan's voice became weaker and weaker, and his smile was withdrawn, only the corners of his eyes were still raised.

Lu Chi no longer had the strength to answer his words.

"But if I die, Master will be snatched away, and then I will be very jealous." This sentence is almost a whisper.

The sun is gradually sinking to the west, and the sunset glow covers half of the sky. Occasionally, the wind blows, making the bamboo leaves rustle.Lu Chi carried the fainted Xie Lannan on his back, trekked for half a mile, and finally found a farmhouse to stay overnight.This family is simple, simple and hospitable. Seeing that Lu Chi was alone with Xie Lannan, who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, they hurriedly cleaned up a room for them to stay.

The farmers thoughtfully delivered the meals, all of which were common dishes in the farm, but they were very delicate and delicious, but Lu Chi didn't even have the strength to move his chopsticks.He used all his internal energy to channel Xie Lannan's true energy, and then carried him here, already exhausted.

Lu Chi looked up at Xie Lannan who was sleeping on the bed, and laughed at himself: I should owe you.

Even if he was plotted and used by him, seeing him in trouble would not let him go.

The flame on the candle wick jumped, and after a soft bang, the candle wick broke and the flame was extinguished.The room was quiet, only the breathing of the two of them, one deep and one shallow, complemented each other.

Lu Chi finally couldn't hold it anymore, and fell asleep on the table.

When he woke up again, he heard someone softly calling him a chivalrous man in a childish voice. Lu Chi opened his eyes and saw a boy who was only five or six years old looking up at him.He remembered that the boy was the youngest son of the farm family.

Xiaotong was not at all shy of strangers. Seeing him waking up, he happily tugged at his sleeves, "Father and mother asked me to invite the knights to dinner." After finishing speaking, he looked behind Lu Chi, Xie Lannan calmly Lie on the bed and breathe slowly.The little boy couldn't help but lower his voice, and asked in a low voice, "Is that knight still awake?"

"That chivalrous man was seriously injured, and he will have to recuperate for a long time before he wakes up."

"Did you get hurt because you beat someone bad?"

Lu Chi squatted down, and gently patted the little bun on the back of the boy's head: "Didn't you say you want to take me to dinner?"

"Ah, yes!" The little boy came to his senses, trotted open the door, and led the way.

Today is the time to bid farewell to this farm family. The two of them are from the Jianghu, especially Xie Lannan, who is from Lizhen Palace.Looking at Xie Lannan's fight with Qingyu today, Xie Lannan might not have an easy life in the Lilong Palace.If he continues to live, Lu Chi is worried that he will cause trouble for others.Thinking this way, he just went out when he heard bustling voices around him, very noisy.Apparently the farmer also heard the sound, pushed open the door, walked out, and looked outside the courtyard twice.

After seeing it clearly, he shook his head and sighed: "It's time to recruit again."

Lu Chi also followed the farmer to the gate of the courtyard. He had excellent eyesight and saw several officials in official clothes walking around.

"Recently, the conscription is very frequent?"

"Beiwu and Nishizawa have been fighting every day recently. This place is not far from the frontier. If there are not enough soldiers, they will go to our place for conscripts. It's not every three days. My eldest son was conscripted away a few months ago." Perhaps thinking of his son who is far away on the battlefield, the farmer looked worried, "Now I only hope for my son's well-being. Let's finish this battle soon."

Lu Chi: "I heard that Mr. Tai Tuo has the talent to lead the army now, and has won many victories on the front line. I think there will always be a day when he returns triumphantly and the world will be peaceful."

"I hope so."

While talking, there was a huge movement from the room next to him, as if something fell to the ground, and the kid closest to the room jumped and ran in first.Lu Chi then came in and saw Xie Lannan pinching the boy's neck with one hand, the boy's face was flushed red, his hands and feet were shaking wildly, but he couldn't make a sound.

"Put him down!" Lu Chi shouted coldly.

When Xie Lannan saw Lu Chi, he smiled naturally. He let go of his hand, and called Master with a smile.

Lu Chi caught the boy and checked it quickly. He was simply choked, and the rest was fine.The little boy was terrified, and threw himself into the arms of the farmer, crying unceasingly.Lu Chi got up and apologized to the farmer: "I just woke up, I think I'm still not clear-headed, and I mistakenly mistook your son for someone else to attack, there is no malice."

Although the farmer was generous, but his son was almost strangled to death, he always had some complaints in his heart, he just wanted to say a few words, but when he raised his head, he bumped into Xie Lannan's eyes.Xie Lannan's eyes were raised, and he was smiling, but when he looked at him, his smile seemed to be mixed with strong malice, which made people's hearts chill.The words that came to his lips were swallowed abruptly by the farmer, he answered a few words indiscriminately, and then went out with the child in his arms.

Don't provoke that person, that's all the farmer has in mind.

"I thought Master would leave me behind." Xie Lannan sat on the bed, smiling harmlessly like a child who doesn't know much about the world.
