I'm not Murong Chong
Chapter 57
Fu Jian didn't answer, but just signaled with his eyes, Ren Zhen understood, and quickly pulled out the dagger that was inseparable from his body and held it in the palm of his hand. Fu Jian immediately took his hand and squeezed it violently. He pulled it up a few feet and hid behind the Buddha statue in the cave.As soon as they hid, the two heard the footsteps outside the cave getting stronger, and then a light like a bean shone in vaguely.
A middle-aged man looked around with a horn lamp in his hand, and said to the people behind him: "Why is there no one? Run away?"
Fu Jian and Ren Zhen glanced at each other, and they both felt a little thumping in their hearts—is there more than one person here?
Sure enough, another male voice rang out afterwards: "Impossible, I heard from that strong man today that he and his brother went hunting in the mountains, and his brother was injured and now it is inconvenient to enter the city, so they have to stay here for a few days—— That strong man sees through the same as you and me, but the two things he gave me today are not like ordinary hunters—it must be some rich family in the city who sneaked out to play, and it should be cheap for you and me to make this windfall! "
Fu Jian looked through the dim light, and the clothes and appearance of the latecomer were clearly the fellow Di people who talked happily with him during the day and exchanged food with him!Knowing that the man was looking for money, he actually asked the master to seek money and kill him in the dark at night, and he couldn't help but secretly regretted it—he never thought that, as Ren Zhen said, someone would do it for those two insignificant things. Sudden evil thoughts!Seeing that the two people had already entered the cave, looking around with a fire, Fu Jian hurriedly retracted his head - because the statues of the Buddha in the late Jin Dynasty were not all like those of later generations, he was tall, but his stature was thin, Fu Jian was afraid The two stood side by side and couldn't block it, so they pulled Ren Zhen into his arms, Ren Zhen hugged him before he was ready, and Fu Jian's familiar and strong breath was in his mouth and nose, as if he had returned to Tianshui that night Among the blue waves of the lake.He turned his head away unnaturally, and heard Fu Jian's voice in his ears: "I'll go and deal with them, and you will come down after nothing happens." Hearing this, Ren Zhen touched Fu Jian's hand lightly. shoulder, Fu Jian shook his head slightly, meaning that his injury was not a hindrance.Ren Zhen nodded in the dark, but held the dagger even tighter in his palms - Fu Jian was injured, and if he couldn't hit it with one blow, he had to play by ear and get to know these two thieves as soon as possible. .
At this time, the two people in the grotto had already turned around, squatting down beside the embers of the fire, one of them touched it with his hand, and suddenly changed his expression: "The fire was still burning just now—they never left the cave! The other person looked up in amazement, but felt that his eyes were dark, and before he could open his mouth to scream, he was kicked in the waist and abdomen. He felt that his internal organs were about to be shattered and fell to the ground, screaming in embarrassment.
When Fu Jian jumped down, because he was concerned about his shoulder injury, he didn't use his hands. He took advantage of the power to knock down a man and kicked back, which hit the wrist of another strong man, and the wrist bone instantly shattered. , the sharp knife he had just drawn could no longer be grasped, Fu Jian turned back his legs, hooked the man's shoulder and slammed down hard, the man fell to the ground, and only the chorus screamed. portion.The two of them came prepared, but who knew that they had already been dealt with neatly, "..." Ren Zhengang hurriedly climbed down the Buddha statue, still holding the dagger tightly in his hand, ready to make a show. After a while, the battle was over on the ground.
Fu Jian looked down at the two people who were lying limp on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "It's really a shame for a Di person to kill someone's life for a petty convenience!" A more courageous one said with pain: "What's so good about being a Di person!? Becoming a pariah and only asking for food and clothing for the family is not enough, and you can’t get the petty profits you said even if you work hard to death!" Fu Jian frowned and said: "A man and a husband can join the army to live and live, why bother to do such a thing!" When he spoke, his tone was harsh, but he stretched out his hand and waved at Ren Zhen, signaling him to put away the dagger—Ren Zhen knew that even though he was angry, he would not want to kill such a humble ant who was trying to survive, and even more so What's more, he is still his fellow villager, so he walked over and said: "I'm afraid we can't stay here any longer, we'd better leave at night."
Fu Jian had been talking with the two people in Xiliang Di language all the time. When Ren Zhen spoke, his voice was very different naturally. The other man had been staring at Ren Zhen, who was gorgeously dressed, white and handsome, not like the Di people in the frontier, for a long time. He shouted: "He is the traitor who was offered a reward at the gate of the city!" He grabbed his companion's arm and said happily, "Quickly ask people to lead the officers and soldiers up the mountain to round up! The reward is ours!"
This turning point happened so quickly, Ren Zhen felt a movement in his waist before he recovered from surprise, and saw Fu Jian pulling out his dagger with lightning speed, wiping him one after another in the blink of an eye. He grabbed the necks of the two of them, let go of their hands and stood up, their bodies fell heavily to the ground, and they didn't even have time to make a strange sound.
Ren Zhen was still a little too late to react, and looked at Fu Jian with confusion in his eyes, and heard him whisper: "You wait here, and I will deal with the corpse." Ren Zhen immediately shook his head when he heard the words: "Let's go together." Fu Jian Knowing that he has a stubborn temper and insists on saying the same thing, let it go, and he and he each carried a dead body, carried it out of the cave, and went to find a secluded place to throw it away.At this moment, the moon is dark and the wind is high, Ren Zhen is carrying a dead body that is gradually freezing up on his back, and he is gritting his teeth all the way to build himself up mentally. The two finally went to a secluded mountain stream side by side, and carried the two heavy bodies Throwing them down one by one, in the dark night, there were only two muffled noises accompanied by the rustling shadows of the whirling trees, but then there were several mournful cries of night owls.Ren Zhenting's eyebrows twitched, and he felt a little annoyed suddenly - suddenly a hand beside him held his hand, it was hot and warm, dispelling the coldness in his heart.Then Fu Jian's voice came from very close: "We can't take any risks." Ren Zhen nodded, wondering how Fu Jian would not have killed him if the two hadn't revealed his identity. The reason for the extermination is also that the relatives and friends of the two will come to find out some clues the next day, trying to cause trouble.If it was in the past, Ren Zhen would definitely feel that Fu Jian's decision to kill was also for his own safety. After all, if Juqu Mengxun was working for Lu Zuan, the thorn in his side should be the first to get rid of.But at this moment, my heart softened inexplicably, seeing Fu Jian bent over the edge of the cliff to pick up a small handful of dry soil after everything was settled, he muttered.
Ren Zhen knew that Fu Jian worshiped Buddha and used to believe in the cycle of cause and effect, so he also squatted down beside him, and whispered: "But you are transcending?"
"The murder I committed, but I still have to pretend to be a hypocrite when it's over." Fu Jian twitched his lips mockingly, "I just hope that they will be reincarnated in the next life, and they would rather be dogs of peace than people in troubled times."
Ren Zhen couldn't help being dazed for a while - Fu Jian has really changed a lot - he once said "a million soldiers under his command" and "throwing a whip is enough to stop the stream", how full of ambition and high spirits, but now he is digging soil on this dark night cliff For the sake of incense, I hope that the next life of the tiny ant people will be peaceful and happy, and there will be no troubled times.
Seeing that Ren Zhen's expression suddenly changed slightly, Fu Jian raised his robe and stood up and pulled him up, slowly but firmly said, "But since I have to do what happened tonight, I don't regret it." One sentence just solved the residual feeling in Ren Zhen's heart Self-blame and stagnation - since you have to do it, you don't need to worry about it anymore.Ren Zhen lowered his head, hid a trace of grateful smile on his lips, and said hastily: "I'm afraid it won't be too long-the two living people disappeared out of thin air, and there are always people who will suspect that once there is a quarrel, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble in the mountains." A place to stay."
This was what Fu Jian had always been thinking about—but Tuoba Gui and others were still trapped in Tianshui City, and the two of them were weak and had no reason to go to Guzang alone, so it became a dilemma.
But no matter how difficult the road ahead is, there is no reason to give up halfway.At this time, the two were connected with each other, and although they were in trouble, they were proud and never complained. Sure enough, after walking a few steps, Fu Jian came up with a plan: "You are right. Hiding and hiding will always make people suspicious. The grotto on Maiji Mountain is under construction. There are quite a few, and the government supervisors may not all register their names one by one, so we simply pretended to be masons and mixed in with the crowd."
Ren Zhen pondered for a while: "The most dangerous place is the safest, commonly known as 'darkness under the lamp'. It's just that I'm afraid that if I don't learn it, it won't arouse the suspicion of the official supervisor." Fu Jian suddenly stopped, and looked back solemnly After looking at Ren Zhen, he nodded and said: "I'll just do it, tidy up, and I can be fooled for a while by speaking the dialect of the Di tribe, but you, you can tell at a glance that you are not a person who grew up in the wind and sand here."
Ren Zhen was taken aback for a moment, remembering that it was true that the Di people just realized that he was not someone from Liangzhou who said that he broke the reward and that he only caused the disaster of killing people.He couldn't help asking seriously: "Then what should I do?"
"You have to pretend to be good. You really don't look like a man from Longxi." After Fu Jian finished speaking seriously, he suddenly reached out to rub his cheek with a swift hand, but it turned out that he didn't know when he squeezed the black soil in his palm. At this moment, it was all wiped on Ren Zhen's fair face, and immediately wiped the face into a messy cat face, and then looked at it seriously, nodded and said: "It's not too bad."
"..." Ren Zhen was speechless at Fu Jian's occasional whimsy. He raised his sleeve and rubbed his face in resentment, and said angrily, "Do you think I want to be like such a vain chicken? And your iconic It’s like a big head, it’s all natural!” After a pause, he bared his teeth and said, “If you can sharpen your inner head, I’ll draw myself into a big black-skinned monkey!”
Fu Jian was almost taken aback by the laughter, he almost forgot how bad-tongued Ren Zhen was, so he quickly waved his hand to signify a truce.Ren Zhenyou couldn't understand his hatred, and wanted to say a few more words eagerly. Fu Jian quickly reached out to help him wipe off the black mud on his face, and said in a pleading voice: "I'm talking nonsense. You look like a man, you are the most like a man." Ren Zhenyou Zhen couldn't laugh or cry, but his heart moved slightly. Fu Jian behaved like this, naturally revealing his intimacy, and he couldn't bear to be interrupted and didn't want to stop—he even speculated with a bit of evil that Murong Chong accompanied him in the past. What is the scene between the palace and the prosperous Jianyuan Emperor Fu Jian?
Presumably, it won't be as romantic as tonight.
The two returned to the cave at night to clean up and cover up the traces of daily life. The next day, Fu Jian took the badges from the two of them last night and found an excuse to report to Yingmao in a grand manner. He managed to hide it from the supervisor, and got in among the craftsmen who went up the mountain to dig the grotto.
Although Ren Zhen hated Fu Jian's casual jokes, he kept an eye out for it. In addition to his tattered clothes, he also wiped his face to smear it. After all, the people who went to the mountains to do coolies were all men. No one looks cleaner than anyone else.But the two of them just pretended to look like each other. In their previous lives, they were both royals and nobles who were accustomed to rich clothes and rich food. Who would know how to quarry stone and seal carving?
Fortunately, both of them are martial arts and marching people, they are physically strong, but they can barely do the heavy work of carrying stones.When Ren Zhenchen got up and went off work, he gritted his teeth and endured a day of back pain and leg cramps, and finally went to the foreman dizzy to receive today's wages - he stared straight at the three five baht coins in front of him, almost exploded : "Are we beggars?!"
Fu Jian had no idea about money, but he also knew that it seemed pitifully little.He scratched his head, and slipped his wages over: "I'll give you mine too, so it's more."
Ren Zhen turned to stare at him like an idiot: "What's the difference?!"
Fu Jian said helplessly: "We are looking for a hiding place, we can take care of food and clothing for two meals, and the wages are worthless." Ren Zhen didn't know this truth, but he said unforgivingly: "But this is too exploitative Right? It takes a day of hard work to exchange for three eldest sons! When Lu Guang is in power, this is how you govern the "Land of Longxing" of your Di people?"
Fu Jian handed Ren Zhen a bowl of vegetable porridge and pancakes he had just received, and shook his head with a smile: "You can't look at the circulation of goods like this. Lu Guangde Liangzhou didn't privately mint money to promote it by force. It’s extremely rare. The Sima family in the south claims to be the Zhengshuo of the Central Plains, but they promote big money as two, causing bad money to prosper in the market, and the currency depreciates every year. The winner is still the rich and noble family in power. How can such a country be governed for a long time?"
Ren Zhen listened to his talk, even though he was sitting disheveled on the dirt pile at the moment, his expression and words seemed to be on the throne again, and he had the spirit to scold Fang Qiu.Fu Jian must have seen through the bad government of the Southern Dynasty before and made up his mind to march south. Who knows...Ren Zhen expressed his feelings: "After the Battle of Feishui, the Eastern Jin Dynasty indeed could not survive for a few years."
Fu Jian's eyes flashed, and he said casually: "How did you know?"
Ren Zhen squinted at him, stretched out his thumb and felt a little weak towards his chest: "Because of me."
Fu Jian laughed: "The boy is arrogant." Ren Zhen also laughed: "Isn't it arrogant if you throw the whip to stop the flow?"
Fu Jian was taken aback for a moment, he did not expect that he would be turned against the general.Thinking about the rhetoric back then, it was like a dream.
"As long as you have the capital of arrogance, arrogance is not worth criticizing." Ren Zhen lowered his head and took a sip of porridge disapprovingly, "Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs, but heroes are not judged by them. If I were you, sitting on a million soldiers I will be eager to swing my sword to the south to make a decisive battle."
It's just that the outcome of this match was too tragic for him in the former Qin Dynasty and Jiangshan Sheji.Fu Jian smiled helplessly and said: "Come on, I can't tell you." He knew that Ren Zhen had recently turned against his original cynicism and defensive calculations, and sometimes he would be relieved and explained in one sentence. Although Yang Ding was good and loyal, he was After all, he didn't have his eyesight and mind - at the same time, by listening to words and deeds, Fu Jian could also see that although Ren Zhen was only in the embrace now, he was just like him in the past, and his intentions were already in the world.
The two avoided the crowd, sat on the ground, and were talking about speculation, when they heard voices behind them, they all kept silent and looked around, but it was Rili's overseer who was in charge of receiving them, also from Di, his name was Maha .At this moment, he walked around in front of them with a happy face, took out a piece of oil paper bag in his arms and handed it over, but looked at Ren Zhen in his eyes: "The craftsmen who went up the mountain are all old experts. There are few people who work so hard like you. I’m sure you won’t be full if you only eat this little.” Both Ren Zhen and Fu Jian were taken aback, thinking that after all, Mahe is a government official, so he would not have any intention of harming them, so he thanked him and took it. When I opened it, it turned out to be four white flour pancakes, fine grains that only supervisors could eat.Na Maha was only in his twenties, and usually liked to wield knives and guns instead of doing his job. Fortunately, his family was well-off, and many of his relatives and friends worked as officials in the Tianshui government office, so he found a way and let him get the post of grotto supervisor. It's not a bad job to stay on Maiji Mountain.Although Maha is not deeply involved in the world, he can also see that these "brothers" are not the same as ordinary vulgar coolies. The "brother" is tall and powerful, with superior military strength; It suits his appetite, and he is bored in the mountains, so he intends to make friends with him.
Ren Zhen thought about using him to inquire about the news in the city, so he was willing to speak perfunctorily to this cheerful young man. After coming and going, the three of them quickly became one with each other, and life was much easier under Maha's care.Ren Zhen could not stay there for a day or two. Ren Zhen heard that the fugitives in Tianshui City had not been arrested for a long time, and the reward had been raised to a hundred taels of gold. two.Fu Jian wanted to go with him, but Ren Zhen persuaded him: "Well, you and I stood side by side at the gate of the city, with the words 'Catch me, catch me, I'm a wanted criminal' written on our faces. But there is no guarantee that something will go wrong, you and I will act separately, and if something happens, we can leave a way out." Fu Jian couldn't help laughing, and nodded in agreement.However, Ren Zhen went down the mountain with Mahe early in the morning and did not return at dusk. He couldn't help but feel a little nervous—although Ren Zhen was clever, but after all, he had re-entered the tiger's den. Regret, if I knew it earlier, I should change it. Although he was injured, even if the officers and soldiers rounded him up, it would not be difficult to escape completely—no, Ren Zhen was still trapped on Maiji Mountain at that time, and it was still dangerous.Fu Jian always made a decision before making a decision, but now he became more and more entangled in thinking about it, and finally couldn't sit still, he stood up and strode towards the entrance of the cave, bumping into Ren Zhenzheng who was walking in with a dull head.
Ren Zhen covered his head and glared at him: "I know your head is big and strong, so you don't have to prove it to me."
Fu Jian has long been used to his way of speaking with a whip and a spoonful of sugar, and he has never been deaf to it, and he is calm everywhere. He grabbed Ren Zhen and asked, "Why have you been here for a whole day?"
Ren Zhen sat down, poured a whole bowl of tea and drank it, and finally relieved the summer heat of the autumn tiger.He wiped his mouth: "It's true that Mahan's official duties won't take long. The rest of the time is spent wandering around the city with him—"
Fu Jian's thick eyebrows twitched, and for some reason, he was really angry, and immediately mocked: "So I went shopping! Have you forgotten your identity or do you think that even if Juqu Mengxun catches you, you will definitely be released?" One side?! I thought you—"
Ren Zhen suddenly took out a small bag of things from his waist, flashed it in front of his eyes, and interrupted him leisurely: "I went to find you a good medicine for golden sores - the arrow wound that day was just a hasty bandage, I see The bandages you changed with me at night are always full of pus and blood, so I rushed to the city to buy medicine for you." He looked up at Fu Jian, motioned for him to take off his clothes and sit down, then got up and said, "Besides, I It's not purely wandering - I have secretly left the contact number of Huben Camp on several streets, as long as Tuoba Gui and the others see it, they will know that I will come to meet you safe and sound, so as to prevent them from rushing up like headless chickens. fire."
Fu Jian was embarrassed by what he said, so he had to obediently ask Ren Zhen to open his clothes and apply the medicine - although Ren Zhen has a naughty temper, he is smart and meticulous, and knows the importance of himself, otherwise he would be chaotic if he did not care.He thought for a moment, and then suddenly said: "You went to buy medicine for golden sores, didn't Moha suspect it?" Ren Zhen shrugged: "I wasn't that careless, I just asked him to buy it for me." Fu Jian waved in front of him, "I told him my palm was scratched by stones, and he nervously went to find the best medicine for sores himself." Only then did Fu Jian see that Ren Zhen's white palm was full of pain. Bloody and bloody - You must know that Ren Zhen was a master who never touched the spring water in his previous life. Although he has become much stronger and healthier after practicing martial arts here, he has never done coolies, and now he is doing it for a few days. This heavy work, the palms had already been ground with bleeding blisters, and he intentionally aggravated the wounds in order not to make Maha suspect, it was terrifying to watch.
Fu Jian took advantage of the situation to hold that hand and looked closely - it was still as slender and white as in memory, even the fingertips were covered with almost transparent powder, like a jade carving, there shouldn't be any scars on the hands - never before, never in the future There shouldn't be any.Fu Jian's heart twitched inexplicably, and then he realized that he thought the owner of these hands was Murong Chong again!Ren Zhen didn't know what he was thinking, coughed lightly, pulled out his hand, and urged in a rough voice: "Hurry up and take the medicine!"
Fu Jian remained silent the whole time, allowing him to move vigorously like plowing the field behind him, as if he could no longer feel the pain, Ren Zhen was busy sweating on the tip of his nose, and finally heaved a sigh of relief: "It's good!" Not thick and careful enough, and stretched out his hand to stroke his strong broad shoulder back and forth to make sure if he would scratch the wound again, Fu Jian suddenly stood up and said hastily: "My wound is already fine, why are you doing this? Messy trying to cause trouble?" Ren Zhen was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help feeling a little angry—why had he ever cared so much for anyone, and this big guy still disliked him? !Just as he was about to retort, he suddenly heard Maha's voice coming from far and near outside the cave dwelling: "Renzhi, I thought that the wound on your hand is not enough to apply externally, so I specially found some herbs for you to take internally—— "
Ren Zhen immediately picked up Fu Jian's robe on the table and threw it on him, turned around to meet Maha, and said with a smile on his face, "Thank you for your concern." Fu Jian, who had just adjusted his clothes, was taken aback for a moment, and instinctively said, "Brother Fu is here?"
Fu Jian raised his eyebrows: This is also his residence, not in this cave, does he want him to go out to eat and sleep?On the face, he responded with a faint smile, went up and looked through the herbs in person, and they were all suitable for the symptoms, and said: "I have a heart." After saying that, he got up and left on his own.Maha was a little confused: "What happened to Brother Fu?"
Ren Zhen gritted his teeth and snorted: "Don't pay attention to him—macrocephaly has occurred again."
A middle-aged man looked around with a horn lamp in his hand, and said to the people behind him: "Why is there no one? Run away?"
Fu Jian and Ren Zhen glanced at each other, and they both felt a little thumping in their hearts—is there more than one person here?
Sure enough, another male voice rang out afterwards: "Impossible, I heard from that strong man today that he and his brother went hunting in the mountains, and his brother was injured and now it is inconvenient to enter the city, so they have to stay here for a few days—— That strong man sees through the same as you and me, but the two things he gave me today are not like ordinary hunters—it must be some rich family in the city who sneaked out to play, and it should be cheap for you and me to make this windfall! "
Fu Jian looked through the dim light, and the clothes and appearance of the latecomer were clearly the fellow Di people who talked happily with him during the day and exchanged food with him!Knowing that the man was looking for money, he actually asked the master to seek money and kill him in the dark at night, and he couldn't help but secretly regretted it—he never thought that, as Ren Zhen said, someone would do it for those two insignificant things. Sudden evil thoughts!Seeing that the two people had already entered the cave, looking around with a fire, Fu Jian hurriedly retracted his head - because the statues of the Buddha in the late Jin Dynasty were not all like those of later generations, he was tall, but his stature was thin, Fu Jian was afraid The two stood side by side and couldn't block it, so they pulled Ren Zhen into his arms, Ren Zhen hugged him before he was ready, and Fu Jian's familiar and strong breath was in his mouth and nose, as if he had returned to Tianshui that night Among the blue waves of the lake.He turned his head away unnaturally, and heard Fu Jian's voice in his ears: "I'll go and deal with them, and you will come down after nothing happens." Hearing this, Ren Zhen touched Fu Jian's hand lightly. shoulder, Fu Jian shook his head slightly, meaning that his injury was not a hindrance.Ren Zhen nodded in the dark, but held the dagger even tighter in his palms - Fu Jian was injured, and if he couldn't hit it with one blow, he had to play by ear and get to know these two thieves as soon as possible. .
At this time, the two people in the grotto had already turned around, squatting down beside the embers of the fire, one of them touched it with his hand, and suddenly changed his expression: "The fire was still burning just now—they never left the cave!

Ren Zhengang hurriedly climbed down the Buddha statue, still holding the dagger tightly in his hand, ready to make a show. After a while, the battle was over on the ground.

A more courageous one said with pain: "What's so good about being a Di person!? Becoming a pariah and only asking for food and clothing for the family is not enough, and you can’t get the petty profits you said even if you work hard to death!" Fu Jian frowned and said: "A man and a husband can join the army to live and live, why bother to do such a thing!" When he spoke, his tone was harsh, but he stretched out his hand and waved at Ren Zhen, signaling him to put away the dagger—Ren Zhen knew that even though he was angry, he would not want to kill such a humble ant who was trying to survive, and even more so What's more, he is still his fellow villager, so he walked over and said: "I'm afraid we can't stay here any longer, we'd better leave at night."

Sure enough, after walking a few steps, Fu Jian came up with a plan: "You are right. Hiding and hiding will always make people suspicious. The grotto on Maiji Mountain is under construction. There are quite a few, and the government supervisors may not all register their names one by one, so we simply pretended to be masons and mixed in with the crowd."
Ren Zhen pondered for a while: "The most dangerous place is the safest, commonly known as 'darkness under the lamp'. It's just that I'm afraid that if I don't learn it, it won't arouse the suspicion of the official supervisor." Fu Jian suddenly stopped, and looked back solemnly After looking at Ren Zhen, he nodded and said: "I'll just do it, tidy up, and I can be fooled for a while by speaking the dialect of the Di tribe, but you, you can tell at a glance that you are not a person who grew up in the wind and sand here."
Ren Zhen was taken aback for a moment, remembering that it was true that the Di people just realized that he was not someone from Liangzhou who said that he broke the reward and that he only caused the disaster of killing people.He couldn't help asking seriously: "Then what should I do?"
"You have to pretend to be good. You really don't look like a man from Longxi." After Fu Jian finished speaking seriously, he suddenly reached out to rub his cheek with a swift hand, but it turned out that he didn't know when he squeezed the black soil in his palm. At this moment, it was all wiped on Ren Zhen's fair face, and immediately wiped the face into a messy cat face, and then looked at it seriously, nodded and said: "It's not too bad."
"..." Ren Zhen was speechless at Fu Jian's occasional whimsy. He raised his sleeve and rubbed his face in resentment, and said angrily, "Do you think I want to be like such a vain chicken? And your iconic It’s like a big head, it’s all natural!” After a pause, he bared his teeth and said, “If you can sharpen your inner head, I’ll draw myself into a big black-skinned monkey!”
Fu Jian was almost taken aback by the laughter, he almost forgot how bad-tongued Ren Zhen was, so he quickly waved his hand to signify a truce.Ren Zhenyou couldn't understand his hatred, and wanted to say a few more words eagerly. Fu Jian quickly reached out to help him wipe off the black mud on his face, and said in a pleading voice: "I'm talking nonsense. You look like a man, you are the most like a man." Ren Zhenyou Zhen couldn't laugh or cry, but his heart moved slightly. Fu Jian behaved like this, naturally revealing his intimacy, and he couldn't bear to be interrupted and didn't want to stop—he even speculated with a bit of evil that Murong Chong accompanied him in the past. What is the scene between the palace and the prosperous Jianyuan Emperor Fu Jian?
Presumably, it won't be as romantic as tonight.
The two returned to the cave at night to clean up and cover up the traces of daily life. The next day, Fu Jian took the badges from the two of them last night and found an excuse to report to Yingmao in a grand manner. He managed to hide it from the supervisor, and got in among the craftsmen who went up the mountain to dig the grotto.
Although Ren Zhen hated Fu Jian's casual jokes, he kept an eye out for it. In addition to his tattered clothes, he also wiped his face to smear it. After all, the people who went to the mountains to do coolies were all men. No one looks cleaner than anyone else.But the two of them just pretended to look like each other. In their previous lives, they were both royals and nobles who were accustomed to rich clothes and rich food. Who would know how to quarry stone and seal carving?
Fortunately, both of them are martial arts and marching people, they are physically strong, but they can barely do the heavy work of carrying stones.When Ren Zhenchen got up and went off work, he gritted his teeth and endured a day of back pain and leg cramps, and finally went to the foreman dizzy to receive today's wages - he stared straight at the three five baht coins in front of him, almost exploded : "Are we beggars?!"
Fu Jian had no idea about money, but he also knew that it seemed pitifully little.He scratched his head, and slipped his wages over: "I'll give you mine too, so it's more."
Ren Zhen turned to stare at him like an idiot: "What's the difference?!"
Fu Jian said helplessly: "We are looking for a hiding place, we can take care of food and clothing for two meals, and the wages are worthless." Ren Zhen didn't know this truth, but he said unforgivingly: "But this is too exploitative Right? It takes a day of hard work to exchange for three eldest sons! When Lu Guang is in power, this is how you govern the "Land of Longxing" of your Di people?"
Fu Jian handed Ren Zhen a bowl of vegetable porridge and pancakes he had just received, and shook his head with a smile: "You can't look at the circulation of goods like this. Lu Guangde Liangzhou didn't privately mint money to promote it by force. It’s extremely rare. The Sima family in the south claims to be the Zhengshuo of the Central Plains, but they promote big money as two, causing bad money to prosper in the market, and the currency depreciates every year. The winner is still the rich and noble family in power. How can such a country be governed for a long time?"
Ren Zhen listened to his talk, even though he was sitting disheveled on the dirt pile at the moment, his expression and words seemed to be on the throne again, and he had the spirit to scold Fang Qiu.Fu Jian must have seen through the bad government of the Southern Dynasty before and made up his mind to march south. Who knows...Ren Zhen expressed his feelings: "After the Battle of Feishui, the Eastern Jin Dynasty indeed could not survive for a few years."
Fu Jian's eyes flashed, and he said casually: "How did you know?"
Ren Zhen squinted at him, stretched out his thumb and felt a little weak towards his chest: "Because of me."
Fu Jian laughed: "The boy is arrogant." Ren Zhen also laughed: "Isn't it arrogant if you throw the whip to stop the flow?"
Fu Jian was taken aback for a moment, he did not expect that he would be turned against the general.Thinking about the rhetoric back then, it was like a dream.
"As long as you have the capital of arrogance, arrogance is not worth criticizing." Ren Zhen lowered his head and took a sip of porridge disapprovingly, "Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs, but heroes are not judged by them. If I were you, sitting on a million soldiers I will be eager to swing my sword to the south to make a decisive battle."
It's just that the outcome of this match was too tragic for him in the former Qin Dynasty and Jiangshan Sheji.Fu Jian smiled helplessly and said: "Come on, I can't tell you." He knew that Ren Zhen had recently turned against his original cynicism and defensive calculations, and sometimes he would be relieved and explained in one sentence. Although Yang Ding was good and loyal, he was After all, he didn't have his eyesight and mind - at the same time, by listening to words and deeds, Fu Jian could also see that although Ren Zhen was only in the embrace now, he was just like him in the past, and his intentions were already in the world.
The two avoided the crowd, sat on the ground, and were talking about speculation, when they heard voices behind them, they all kept silent and looked around, but it was Rili's overseer who was in charge of receiving them, also from Di, his name was Maha .At this moment, he walked around in front of them with a happy face, took out a piece of oil paper bag in his arms and handed it over, but looked at Ren Zhen in his eyes: "The craftsmen who went up the mountain are all old experts. There are few people who work so hard like you. I’m sure you won’t be full if you only eat this little.” Both Ren Zhen and Fu Jian were taken aback, thinking that after all, Mahe is a government official, so he would not have any intention of harming them, so he thanked him and took it. When I opened it, it turned out to be four white flour pancakes, fine grains that only supervisors could eat.Na Maha was only in his twenties, and usually liked to wield knives and guns instead of doing his job. Fortunately, his family was well-off, and many of his relatives and friends worked as officials in the Tianshui government office, so he found a way and let him get the post of grotto supervisor. It's not a bad job to stay on Maiji Mountain.Although Maha is not deeply involved in the world, he can also see that these "brothers" are not the same as ordinary vulgar coolies. The "brother" is tall and powerful, with superior military strength; It suits his appetite, and he is bored in the mountains, so he intends to make friends with him.
Ren Zhen thought about using him to inquire about the news in the city, so he was willing to speak perfunctorily to this cheerful young man. After coming and going, the three of them quickly became one with each other, and life was much easier under Maha's care.Ren Zhen could not stay there for a day or two. Ren Zhen heard that the fugitives in Tianshui City had not been arrested for a long time, and the reward had been raised to a hundred taels of gold. two.Fu Jian wanted to go with him, but Ren Zhen persuaded him: "Well, you and I stood side by side at the gate of the city, with the words 'Catch me, catch me, I'm a wanted criminal' written on our faces. But there is no guarantee that something will go wrong, you and I will act separately, and if something happens, we can leave a way out." Fu Jian couldn't help laughing, and nodded in agreement.However, Ren Zhen went down the mountain with Mahe early in the morning and did not return at dusk. He couldn't help but feel a little nervous—although Ren Zhen was clever, but after all, he had re-entered the tiger's den. Regret, if I knew it earlier, I should change it. Although he was injured, even if the officers and soldiers rounded him up, it would not be difficult to escape completely—no, Ren Zhen was still trapped on Maiji Mountain at that time, and it was still dangerous.Fu Jian always made a decision before making a decision, but now he became more and more entangled in thinking about it, and finally couldn't sit still, he stood up and strode towards the entrance of the cave, bumping into Ren Zhenzheng who was walking in with a dull head.
Ren Zhen covered his head and glared at him: "I know your head is big and strong, so you don't have to prove it to me."
Fu Jian has long been used to his way of speaking with a whip and a spoonful of sugar, and he has never been deaf to it, and he is calm everywhere. He grabbed Ren Zhen and asked, "Why have you been here for a whole day?"
Ren Zhen sat down, poured a whole bowl of tea and drank it, and finally relieved the summer heat of the autumn tiger.He wiped his mouth: "It's true that Mahan's official duties won't take long. The rest of the time is spent wandering around the city with him—"
Fu Jian's thick eyebrows twitched, and for some reason, he was really angry, and immediately mocked: "So I went shopping! Have you forgotten your identity or do you think that even if Juqu Mengxun catches you, you will definitely be released?" One side?! I thought you—"
Ren Zhen suddenly took out a small bag of things from his waist, flashed it in front of his eyes, and interrupted him leisurely: "I went to find you a good medicine for golden sores - the arrow wound that day was just a hasty bandage, I see The bandages you changed with me at night are always full of pus and blood, so I rushed to the city to buy medicine for you." He looked up at Fu Jian, motioned for him to take off his clothes and sit down, then got up and said, "Besides, I It's not purely wandering - I have secretly left the contact number of Huben Camp on several streets, as long as Tuoba Gui and the others see it, they will know that I will come to meet you safe and sound, so as to prevent them from rushing up like headless chickens. fire."
Fu Jian was embarrassed by what he said, so he had to obediently ask Ren Zhen to open his clothes and apply the medicine - although Ren Zhen has a naughty temper, he is smart and meticulous, and knows the importance of himself, otherwise he would be chaotic if he did not care.He thought for a moment, and then suddenly said: "You went to buy medicine for golden sores, didn't Moha suspect it?" Ren Zhen shrugged: "I wasn't that careless, I just asked him to buy it for me." Fu Jian waved in front of him, "I told him my palm was scratched by stones, and he nervously went to find the best medicine for sores himself." Only then did Fu Jian see that Ren Zhen's white palm was full of pain. Bloody and bloody - You must know that Ren Zhen was a master who never touched the spring water in his previous life. Although he has become much stronger and healthier after practicing martial arts here, he has never done coolies, and now he is doing it for a few days. This heavy work, the palms had already been ground with bleeding blisters, and he intentionally aggravated the wounds in order not to make Maha suspect, it was terrifying to watch.
Fu Jian took advantage of the situation to hold that hand and looked closely - it was still as slender and white as in memory, even the fingertips were covered with almost transparent powder, like a jade carving, there shouldn't be any scars on the hands - never before, never in the future There shouldn't be any.Fu Jian's heart twitched inexplicably, and then he realized that he thought the owner of these hands was Murong Chong again!Ren Zhen didn't know what he was thinking, coughed lightly, pulled out his hand, and urged in a rough voice: "Hurry up and take the medicine!"
Fu Jian remained silent the whole time, allowing him to move vigorously like plowing the field behind him, as if he could no longer feel the pain, Ren Zhen was busy sweating on the tip of his nose, and finally heaved a sigh of relief: "It's good!" Not thick and careful enough, and stretched out his hand to stroke his strong broad shoulder back and forth to make sure if he would scratch the wound again, Fu Jian suddenly stood up and said hastily: "My wound is already fine, why are you doing this? Messy trying to cause trouble?" Ren Zhen was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help feeling a little angry—why had he ever cared so much for anyone, and this big guy still disliked him? !Just as he was about to retort, he suddenly heard Maha's voice coming from far and near outside the cave dwelling: "Renzhi, I thought that the wound on your hand is not enough to apply externally, so I specially found some herbs for you to take internally—— "
Ren Zhen immediately picked up Fu Jian's robe on the table and threw it on him, turned around to meet Maha, and said with a smile on his face, "Thank you for your concern." Fu Jian, who had just adjusted his clothes, was taken aback for a moment, and instinctively said, "Brother Fu is here?"
Fu Jian raised his eyebrows: This is also his residence, not in this cave, does he want him to go out to eat and sleep?On the face, he responded with a faint smile, went up and looked through the herbs in person, and they were all suitable for the symptoms, and said: "I have a heart." After saying that, he got up and left on his own.Maha was a little confused: "What happened to Brother Fu?"
Ren Zhen gritted his teeth and snorted: "Don't pay attention to him—macrocephaly has occurred again."
