his robbery

Huo Xiangzhen walked up the stone steps barefoot with her hands behind her back.His stomach was very quiet, and there was no gurgling noise, but he clenched his teeth, feeling that once he opened his mouth, he would swallow the world—it was really starving him.

After turning a few turns, there was a small shadow of a flower in the bushes ahead. It was a little girl carrying a small burden. She said it was a flower, but she was actually wearing a faded red gown. As soon as the person passed in the shadow of the tree, the red and green contrasted, and that was a girl with braids, so it made people feel bright for no reason.

Li Tianbao saw the rhubarb apricots in front of and behind the burden at a glance, and immediately shouted: "Hey, don't run away! Is your apricot for sale? I'll give you ten yuan, and you leave the burden to us!"

The little girl was shy and wanted to retreat into the woods, but now she heard that there was money to take, so she tried to come out again.Huo Xiangzhen glanced at her, and saw that although she was in rags, she had a very beautiful appearance, with long eyebrows, and she was only as high as her chest when she stood upright.

Huo Xiangzhen felt that the little girl was good-looking, so after one look, he took another look.After watching this second glance, he turned his head away seriously, feeling a little embarrassed, and thought to himself, "Like Mani."

The little girl was frightened by the officers, and left two baskets of yellow apricots in a hurry. Holding the banknotes in one hand and the empty pole in the other, she ran away like a frightened bird without a trace.Li Tianbao took a closer look and saw that the basket was very old and tattered, no wonder the little girl was willing to give it away for free.Picking out the most perfect yellow apricot, he wiped the rainwater off it with his hands, and then offered it to Huo Xiangzhen: "Marshal, there is still a long way to go, eat a few apricots to pad your stomach!"

Huo Xiangzhen was still serious, at first glance he seemed to have lost his temper.He raised his hand to take Huang Xing, but he didn't speak.But Li Tianbao looked up at him, and saw that he rubbed Huang Xing into his mouth.Immediately after puffing up one cheek, he lowered his head and spit out a large apricot core, and then whispered: "Give a basket to Commander Gu."

Li Tianbao asked someone to carry a basket of yellow apricots to the back, and the guards of the Gu family at the back of the hall also started picking apricots and sending them to Gu Chengxi.The apricots had been washed away by the rain, and everyone ate them without any worries. They stuffed them into their mouths one by one, and praised the apricots as they ate. They were big and sweet, and there were no bug eyes.

When the team got lively, Gu Chengxi fell silent instead.Lying on the guard's back like riding a horse, he gnawed on the apricot delicately. Although he knew that Huo Xiangzhen was just out of affection, he couldn't openly eat alone; but after thinking about it, he felt that he could form a team with him. It is also a pleasant thing to walk home while eating sweet almonds.

All in all, it was a worthwhile trip, and he admitted it despite the wind and rain, and admitted it when he took the risk of being injured. He didn't want anything else, but he wanted to do what he wanted.

In the afternoon, Huo Xiangzhen and his party returned to the Su family villa.The old man who looked after the house greeted him, and seeing that the two army commanders were safe and sound, he sighed and thanked all the gods and Buddhas, and asked where Huo Xiangzhen had gone.Huo Xiangzhen thought about it for a while, but he couldn't explain clearly—he originally wanted to go to the Jade Emperor Peak to watch the sunrise, but after watching the sunrise, he was still unsatisfied, and walked farther and farther on his own, and finally walked into a stone mountain .Hearing this, the old man first thought he was going to Dao Renzi Mountain, but when he asked about the length of the journey, he didn't think so.While this question was being answered, Li Tianbao had asked someone to prepare hot bath water, and the old man also ordered the servants in the villa to serve lunch.

Huo Xiangzhen went back to the room and picked up the rice bowl, and was about to gobble it up, but before he moved his chopsticks, he suddenly found a problem: "Where's Andre?"

Li Tianbao replied: "He is not with us, he must be wandering outside!"

Huo Xiangzhen immediately frowned, making a gesture to let go of his job: "Send an idler out, and call them all back to me!"

Li Tianbao agreed and went to do it immediately, but as soon as the idler left the gate of the villa, he went head-to-head with Andre's group.When Andre heard that Huo Xiangzhen had returned safely, he immediately ran to the east wing.After pushing open the door, he lifted a few more curtains and turned a few turns, and finally in an empty room, he saw Huo Xiangzhen in a big bathtub.

Huo Xiangzhen had just entered the water, and seeing Andre now, he couldn't help frowning again—Andre couldn't tell what was wrong, anyway, he seemed to have changed his appearance, with a slightly slanted eye, an expression like It was frozen in the most panic moment.

After frowning, he smiled: "Are you scared?"

Andre took a few steps forward, and his thighs touched the edge of the tub. His muscles were stiff and his hair was standing on end. The sun outside was already very strong, but he was sweating coldly.Looking down at Huo Xiangzhen in panic, he muttered softly, "I can't find you."

Then he squatted down slowly as if losing his strength, halfway through the squat, he fell backwards, and sat on the green brick floor with his buttocks.Raising one hand to rest on the edge of the barrel, he tried to use his strength to stand up, but his legs were shaking with spasms, and he was no longer able to obey.His fingertips were submerged in the warm water, as if he had received some kind of comfort or promise, he tilted his body and sat back down again.

A big, dripping hand descended from the sky, and touched his yellow-haired head a lot: "The girl is brave."

Andre closed his eyes and shivered a lot.I couldn't find it, and I couldn't find it no matter how hard I searched. It scared him to death for most of the day.

In the Su family's villa, the citizens of the Huo and Gu countries were all busy eating first and then taking a bath.Huo Xiangzhen lay face up on the mat, leaning on her arms and said: "I saw you were sleeping deeply, so I didn't call you. Who knew that I felt sorry for you once, and even shocked you."

Andre also ate, drank and took a bath.Putting on a thin trousers and coat, he sat beside Huo Xiangzhen and wiped his short hair with a big towel. Perhaps because of his peace of mind, his facial features, which were running around, gradually returned to their original positions. A beautiful face with blond hair, blue eyes and red lips.It is his Chinese that is misaligned with his facial features.He suddenly couldn't say anything, he could only repeat the three words "I can't find it" in a murmur, very sad and aggrieved, like a child who just had a big nightmare, and after waking up, there was no one to comfort him.

Huo Xiangzhen knew how much he protected and attached herself, so seeing him like this, she felt a little love and affection.Suddenly shaking the blanket on his body, he leaned over and opened his arms like a big roc spreading its wings, and wrapped Andre in the blanket.He lowered his head and sniffed the back of Andre's neck, and inhaled the scent of camellia left by the soap.Putting Andre in his arms again, he laughed softly and said, "Well, this tastes good."

His chest was too warm, so Andre couldn't help shivering again.

Huo Xiangzhen was exhausted from this trip, but now that she was at ease, she fell asleep immediately.At the same time, Gu Chengxi still has energy.Wearing a silk nightgown, he leaned against the head of the bed, half lying and half sitting, his injured left foot kicking into Pei Haisheng's arms.

The turned-up big toenail was cut off, and the disinfectant was applied. Now there is only one job left to bandage, but Pei Haisheng is really not a dexterous person. Although he has made every effort and is extremely careful, But I still can't even wrap a bandage properly, it's either tight or loose.Finally, it was not loose or tight, and Gu Chengxi looked down, but he was so angry that he was about to laugh—Pei Haisheng didn't know how many bandages he used, and wrapped him up with a big toe that was so long and thick that it went straight through. Tong Tong upturned at 45 degrees, just like a gun barrel.

"This fucking..." He didn't finish cursing, the lingering sound lingered, and at the same time he thought of Xiao Lin.If this job was handed over to Xiao Lin, he thought that Xiao Lin would never make a cannon for him.

Pei Haisheng looked down at his bare feet, sighed too, then turned his head to him, and asked, "Mr. Zuo, is it worth it?"

Gu Chengxi picked up the gold-plated cigarette case from the bed, opened it, picked up a cigarette and put it to his mouth.Looking up at Pei Haisheng, he casually lifted his chin: "Huo'er!"

Pei Haisheng moved his left leg to the bed and put it away, got up and took the matchbox from the window sill.Lightly and neatly struck a match, he held the flame with both hands and sent it to Gu Chengxi.And Gu Chengxi moved his tongue, pointed the cigarette at the flame and nodded nimbly, and lit the cigarette playfully.

Holding the cigarette between his fingers, Gu Chengxi lowered his eyes and didn't look at him, he just asked in a cloud of mist, "What? Are you distressed or jealous?"

Pei Haisheng waved his hand expressionlessly, letting the afterflame on the matchstick go out in the wind: "My heart hurts."

Gu Chengxi raised his face to him, as if he was afraid of scaring someone, he lowered his voice and asked with a smile: "You love me so much?"

Pei Haisheng looked away, feeling that there was no way to answer this question.

Gu Chengxi grabbed his hanging right hand, first shook it vigorously, then brought the back of the hand to his cheek to stick it, and at the same time smiled affectionately: "My dear, I know you are sincere to me."

Pei Haisheng didn't want to treat him sincerely at all, but his heart became independent, and he rushed towards Gu Chengxi by himself.

Holding Gu Chengxi's hand back, he looked down, only to see Gu Chengxi raised his legs, his painted left foot was shaking back and forth, as if he was hurting his pride.The feet are so lively, but the face is calm, and the smile just now is gone as soon as it is sent out, obviously without sincerity.

Without saying a word, he looked away, Pei Haisheng thought that when he was only an adjutant, he didn't realize that the military seat couldn't help but look at him so much.It turned out that when he looked at Gu Chengxi, he felt that the other party was sometimes handsome and handsome, with a good-looking face, a tall and straight figure, and a pair of eyes, especially black and white.At that time, he often thought that it was rare in the world to have a man as talented and beautiful as Jun Zuo.

He didn't expect that he would get into a man's bed, and the more he looked at the man, the more he disliked him.

Turning around and walking to the window sill, he put the matchbox back, and at the same time turned his back to Gu Chengxi and said, "I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. Anyway, what the military seat did today is too risky."

After the words were finished, the orderly brought in a dripping fruit plate, and there were a few yellow apricots rolling in the plate, which were leftovers from eating on the way.Gu Chengxi held a cigarette in one hand and a yellow apricot in the other. He didn't eat it, but just fiddled with it.

After looking at it for a while, he suddenly expressed emotion: "Remember where it was that year? Henan? It seems to be Henan. We won a battle. He rode for dozens of miles and gave me a bag of chocolates. Candy as a reward. There was really nothing good at that time, and the chocolate candy belonged to Ma Congrong. Ma Congrong, you know? It’s the slender boy with a handsome face who has come to our house several times.”

Speaking of which, he brought the yellow apricot to his nose and sniffed it: "At that time, he was still wounded. He was jolting on the horse, so it didn't hurt?"

Gently kissing the yellow apricot in his hand, he suddenly felt melancholy: "He also treated me well, it's good to be better, the way he looks at me is different from seeing others. Now the way he looks at me is also different from seeing others Same, like seeing a toad, as if he wanted to trample me to death. I worked so hard to find him to save him, but he still didn't appreciate it, so he still wanted to trample me to death."

He smoked half of the cigarette in one breath, and he let out a long breath: "Regret! It's too late."

Then he stubbed out his cigarette and ate yellow apricots.After rinsing his mouth with a cup of tea, he rolled on the bed and went to sleep.

Pei Haisheng still looked out the window, loving him deeply in his heart, but hated that his deep affection was not for himself.

The Su family's villa was quiet, and everyone who could sleep was asleep. It was not until evening that there were low voices in the courtyard again.

Although Huo Xiangzhen thought she was not young, she had never walked a long distance barefoot, so when she woke up, she was shocked and found that her feet were bulging with blood blisters.

Li Tianbao found a sewing needle and sat at the end of the bed in an embroidery posture, trying to burst all the blood bubbles.Andre also woke up, squatting aside in a daze under a blanket.After staying there for a while, he softly opened his mouth: "Marshal, does it hurt?"

Huo Xiangzhen replied absent-mindedly, "It doesn't hurt."

Li Tianbao felt that the Marshal's words were not objective, because it didn't hurt.But after he finished his work, Huo Xiangzhen pulled a pair of soft-soled cloth shoes and walked out of the bedroom as if nothing had happened, as if it really didn't hurt.

Holding an embroidery needle in his hand, Li Tianbao poked at Andre: "My lord, don't pretend to be a baby with me, get out of bed and wait for the commander in chief! This adjutant must also take a good rest, Don’t call me if you have nothing to do, do you hear me?”

Andre agreed blankly——his colleagues pushed him a few words, but he always seemed to be unable to understand, and he didn't take it to heart.

Dinner was not served yet, so Huo Xiangzhen, wearing loose trousers and jacket, walked slowly to the pavilion in the corner of the courtyard.The pavilion is perched on top of the rocks, surrounded by stone railings, and under the railings are long stone benches. If it is exquisite, it is not so exquisite, but outside the pavilion are infinite green mountains and infinite clouds. Before the vast scenery, the pavilion The presence or absence of it seems to be nothing.

Huo Xiangzhen's feet hurt, so after entering the pavilion, she immediately sat on the stone bench.Leaning sideways on the stone railing and looking out, he lost his mind in a trance, and suddenly remembered many people and things.Those people and things seemed to be too late to catch up, rushing past him one after another—all left, but there were always a few who were willing to stay.He raised his hand and patted his thigh. He thought of the rain from the mountain, the apricot from the rain, the little girl selling apricot from the apricot, and Bai Mani from the little girl.

The lap is very empty, and Bai Mani is missing; apart from Bai Mani, no one else has ever sat on his lap.He didn't know how to get Bai Mani back.In the past, this was not a big deal at all, the younger brother was disobedient, and I could have taken him home with one mouth; but now it is different, I don’t know what the younger brother thinks, if the younger brother is really unwilling, I can’t force it Robbing women from the people—no, men from the people.

Of course, Lian Yi is also a trouble, if there is no Lian Yi for him, he has no money to spend, so naturally he wouldn't fool around so desperately.When Lian Yi was mentioned, Huo Xiangzhen's heart twitched.Lian Yi seemed to have a grudge against him. Ever since he took over the power of the Huo family, Lian Yi began to run on him. In fact, Lu Yongming also had ulterior motives at that time, but the ulterior motives were not long-lasting. Seeing that he really stood still Feet, that's all.Lian Yi was not the case. He punished him like a day for several years, chewed his tongue in all directions, and insisted that he was Zhao Kuo, which really drove people to death.

Reluctantly pulling her mind away from Lian Yi, Huo Xiangzhen sighed, thinking that it was really cool on the mountain, she slept all afternoon without sweating at all.

At this moment, Gu Chengxi came.

Gu Chengxi had a good night's sleep, and when he woke up, he heard that Huo Xiangzhen was sitting in the pavilion watching the scenery, and his whole body was itchy.Picking up a pair of large scissors, he cut off half of the barrel of his left big toe, then put on his slippers, and limped out the door.

When he reached the stone steps under the pavilion, he looked up and saw Andre.Andre stopped condescendingly, staring covetously at Gu Chengxi below, with no intention of giving way to him.

Gu Chengxi also grimaced, and went up the stone steps step by step, and finally stopped in front of Andre.With his head held high and his chest raised slightly, he glared at Andre provocatively; and Andre also opened his glass-bead-like blue eyes wide, with a serious chill on his face—he knew how ungrateful he was. Powerful, Gu Chengxi can be knocked down with a shake of his shoulder!

The two sides glared at each other like fighting cocks, as if they were going to fight to the death in the next second.However, when the glaring reached a certain level, Gu Chengxi suddenly turned sideways, and slipped into the pavilion like a yellow croaker, grinning wickedly as he walked.And Andre had been preparing to fight him for [-] rounds, but he never expected that he would openly bypass his line of defense without farting.Turning his hands on his hips, he found that Gu Chengxi had already sat beside Huo Xiangzhen.

Huo Xiangzhen was thinking about it, and suddenly there was another person beside her, and she was almost taken aback.But Gu Chengxi didn't wait for him to say something to drive him away, so he opened his mouth one step ahead: "Jingheng, while we are free now, let's talk about business - tell me, how long can our team be stationed in Shandong?"

Huo Xiangzhen didn't expect that what he was talking about was really serious. After thinking for a while, he replied with reservations: "I don't know."

Gu Chengxi poked his head slightly towards him, and asked in a low voice: "I don't think I will stay for long, what do you think?"

Huo Xiangzhen nodded and said nothing.

Gu Chengxi raised his left leg and put it on the stone bench in front of him: "There are teams and no territory, but it's really not good. I think Shandong is very good, rich and prosperous, and it's not worse than Hebei. If it can stay for a long time, You have a provincial chairman, and I have a provincial security commander, how good would it be?"

Huo Xiangzhen supported his knees with both hands, and turned to look at him, not knowing where he started talking.

Gu Chengxi looked at him and smiled, without saying a word.After laughing for a while, he straightened his face, and said again: "Don't think I'm talking nonsense, I guess you can have more than 2 people, and I have [-] people in my hand. Our cooperation will only benefit you and not harm you, think about it for yourself, right?"

Then he leaned on the stone railing and stood up, making a gesture to leave. Before he left, he turned his head and said, "I definitely treat you differently from Lianyi. It's all messed up now, we should make plans .You don’t give me a chance, but I will give you a chance, think about it, think about it.”
