his robbery

Chapter 164

In the early hours of the morning, Gu Chengxi's large carriage entered Xingtai County under the guard of soldiers.The officers mobilized in the dark and arrested the most famous old doctor in the county.When it was twilight, the medicinal soup was ready.Two orderlies supported Huo Xiangzhen from left to right. Gu Chengxi scooped up the medicinal soup with a small spoon and sent it deep into his throat. As a result, as soon as the small spoon was pulled out, the medicinal soup flowed out from the corner of his mouth again.

Gu Chengxi was in a hurry, and asked his adjutant to continue to go out to seek medical treatment.The adjutants lived up to expectations, and this time an old foreigner was invited back.I don't know which European country this old foreigner is from. Anyway, he is practicing medicine and preaching in the local area. His popularity and reputation are first-class.The old foreigner concluded that Huo Xiangzhen had suffered from acute pneumonia, and the situation was very dangerous, but apart from injections and medicine, there was no other cure.The medicine couldn't be fed anyway, so Gu Chengxi only asked the old foreigner to inject Huo Xiangzhen with an anti-inflammatory injection.

Huo Xiangzhen was wrapped tightly with a big quilt, and Gu Chengxi took off his shoes and got on the kang.He struggled for a long time yesterday, but he didn't feel tired; after sleeping in the night, he sat in a carriage for half a night, but he felt sore all over his body.Tired, but refreshed, unable to sleep.Huo Xiangzhen and Huo Xiangzhen squeezed into a pillow, and he hugged each other together, with his arms full.Looking up at Huo Xiangzhen's profile, he suddenly felt a little dazed—the two hadn't been so close and friendly for a long time. He touched the other's straight high nose bridge with his fingers, and he thought it was right, it was indeed safe.

Huo Xiangzhen didn't seem to understand anything, she didn't know anything, she was panting; her face was purple, her lips were blue, her throat was hissing, and her chest became a bellows; all the strength in her body was used Inhaled and exhaled, he gasped for his life.

After panting like this for more than half an hour, the effect of the injection probably started to kick in, and his breathing became a little faster, but his body was still hot.Gu Chengxi stretched his hands into the bed, tentatively touching his chest and ribs, and it was hot everywhere he touched.A high fever that lasts for a long time can burn people's minds.Gu Chengxi was anxious and anxious, thinking that if the fire continues with this momentum, will God really burn me a foolish peace?

Thinking of this, he leaned over and lowered his eyes to look at Huo Xiangzhen again, then lowered his head, and kissed him on the face.

When the sun was high, the foreign doctor came and gave Huo Xiangzhen another injection.

Huo Xiangzhen had already slept peacefully at this moment.He was lying on the kang, and Gu Chengxi was sitting cross-legged on the side of the kang, guarding a small kang table to eat boiled dumplings.Gu Chengxi didn't have any thoughts in his mind, he just ate the dumplings one by one, ate two dumplings, and took a sip of wine.The sun shines in through the wooden latticed glass windows, shining on the kang on the floor.The snow has really stopped and the sky is so clear.Gu Chengxi ate and drank methodically, occasionally looking back.Huo Xiangzhen lay on his side against the wall, only his head was exposed from above the quilt, his face was flushed, his thick eyebrows straightened the bridge of his nose, and his sharp-edged lips were not only white, but also peeling.

Gu Chengxi glanced at him quietly and solidly, and after looking at him, he turned back to the front. For some reason, he was very calm, very heroic, very righteous, very arrogant, and could even eat two dumplings in one bite.

Just after he was full, an adjutant gently lifted the curtain of the cotton door and reported to him softly: "Mr. Commander, are you free now? Battalion Commander Pei wants to see you."

Gu Chengxi put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth, his voice was also very low: "Has he finished treating his eyes?"

The adjutant had been with him for a long time, and he didn't see him, so he wrinkled his nose and grinned, and made a painful grimace: "Sir, don't mention it, you're really blind."

Gu Chengxi walked around the Kang table, stretched his legs out of the bed and put on his shoes: "Didn't you ask that foreign doctor to take a look?"

The adjutant went to the kang and squatted down, and put riding boots on his feet: "Look, after entering the county yesterday, he was the first doctor I saw. Military seat, do you know that there is a film on the eyes of people, Once the membrane is broken, the eye will be destroyed. The foreign doctor said that Battalion Commander Pei just broke some membrane on the eye, and there is no cure."

Gu Chengxi got up, put on his coat and went out: "Aren't his eyeballs still there?"

The adjutant followed him out of the bedroom: "It's too late."

Gu Chengxi sighed sincerely: "Haisheng is pitiful in the future! He was a pretty good boy, but he was blind in one eye, disabled and disfigured—how does he look now? Is it scary?"

The adjutant immediately shook his head: "It's not scary, but the right eye is covered with gauze, and it looks like a one-eyed dragon."

Gu Chengxi has also been stationed in Xingtai County for a few days, and all the necessary houses have been occupied, and there are always people in the headquarters to look after the house.At this moment, he put on his overcoat and went out, crossed a street and entered the headquarters.

In the outer room of the headquarters, he saw Pei Haisheng.

Pei Haisheng sat upright on a hardwood chair, his head and face were cleaned up, and a piece of white gauze was covered over his right eye.He raised his head and stared at Gu Chengxi with his left eye. His face was expressionless, but his hands on his lap slowly clenched into fists.

Gu Chengxi noticed it, so he walked up to him and bent down: "Haisheng, why are you so angry when I come here?" Then he smiled, raised his hand and patted Pei Haisheng's face: "It's okay, there is only one eye. As long as you can shoot a gun and see the road, you are a man, and you don't care about being ugly."

The corner of Pei Haisheng's mouth twitched, and then he raised his hand suddenly, grabbing Gu Chengxi's collar—he's not a fool, why doesn't he know?As soon as Gu Chengxi opened his mouth, he could hear how many tricks the other party had hidden!I usually never say that he is a manly man, and usually criticize him, and I never say "don't care about being ugly". Today, if he is blind in one eye, he will become a manly man, and his ugly beauty doesn't matter!Xiang Xiang stared at Gu Chengxi so hard that his intact left eye was about to bleed—the more I love him, the more I can't keep him!

Gu Chengxi was so pinched by him that he couldn't straighten his waist and raise his head, so he simply opened his arms and hugged him again: "My dear, when you recover from your injury, I will promote you to the official position."

When Pei Haisheng heard this, he slowly let go of his fingers.He wanted to ask Gu Chengxi for a promise, but he still didn't say anything.The good words of the military seat can be pulled by carts. If you ask for it today, it won't count tomorrow, so what's the use?

Gu Chengxi stood up straight, raised his hand to straighten his collar, then looked down at Pei Haisheng and said, "Otherwise, I'll send someone to take you to Beiping, and have a look at the big hospital?"

Without waiting for Pei Haisheng to answer, he nodded himself: "Okay, you can pack up and leave in the afternoon!"

Pei Haisheng stood up slowly while pressing the armrest of the chair: "Why did the military seat come back at night?"

Gu Chengxi raised his eyebrows, and asked with a smile: "I have to pick a good and auspicious day when I come back?"

Pei Haisheng looked at him: "Didn't you want to find Huo Jingheng in the mountains?"

Gu Chengxi replied: "I feel cold, so I don't want to look for it anymore, can't I?"

Pei Haisheng lowered his eyes: "I thought the military seat was here to see me, and I sat here waiting for midnight, but I didn't wait for you."

Gu Chengxi frowned disapprovingly: "Don't pick my reason! I treated you like this, and you still slapped me on the nose, let the dog eat your conscience? Come on, don't wait for the afternoon, I will write you a check For medical expenses, you get out of here now!"

Like a gust of wind, Gu Chengxi forcefully blows Pei Haisheng away.It's good to go, Gu Chengxi is afraid that he will take revenge and kill Huo Xiangzhen secretly.Such things as slaughtering people are irreversible. Once they are really slaughtered, there is nothing they can do. Even if Pei Haisheng is killed, Huo Xiangzhen's life cannot be replaced.

After sitting in the command post for a while, Gu Chengxi issued a military order to withdraw the large troops in the mountain under the pretext that the mountain was blocked by heavy snow and the mountain road was difficult.Then he strolled back to the residence, picked up the curtain and entered the bedroom again.

After snuggling by Huo Xiangzhen's side for a long time, in the afternoon, he closed his eyes and dozed off in a daze. Just when he was half asleep, he suddenly heard someone whispering in his ear.As if being stabbed by a needle, he instantly opened his eyes to look at Huo Xiangzhen, only to see that Huo Xiangzhen still had his eyes closed, but he was burnt out and talking in his sleep.

Stretching his ears on all fours, Gu Chengxi wanted to hear what he was saying.He uttered words lightly and vaguely, but his tone was serious and urgent, it was like a long speech.Gu Chengxi listened to it again and again, at first he couldn't understand it at all, but later he gradually understood the clues, but felt uncomfortable for a while.I don't know which year Huo Xiangzhen returned to in the dream. He kept saying that he was going to the Tianjin Office, but suddenly he said something clearly, "If you don't leave, it will be too late."

After hearing this, Gu Chengxi was suddenly startled.Walk?What's the meaning?Where are you going?He was not a superstitious person, but at this moment, the idea of ​​ghosts and gods suddenly appeared, so frightened that he held Huo Xiangzhen's shoulders with both hands, shook him involuntarily, and shouted at the same time: "Peace, wake up." !"

With that voice, Huo Xiangzhen opened his eyes without warning.

Looking straight up at Gu Chengxi, his red face was expressionless.And Gu Chengxi also opened his eyes wide in surprise.The two sides looked at each other for a few seconds, and Huo Xiangzhen's pupils gradually brightened.

The light was weak, like a rootless fire, flickering and flickering.With a hoarse voice, Huo Xiangzhen called out in a low voice, "Gu Chengxi."

Gu Chengxi was a little happy, but also a little disappointed.Joyful, because since Huo Xiangzhen can know people, there must be no reason to die again; sad, because once Ping An wakes up, he is no longer Ping An.

"Scared me to death..." He smiled and asked Huo Xiangzhen: "Do you know that the nonsense you just said was so creepy?"

Huo Xiangzhen looked straight into his eyes: "I was dreaming."

Coughing uncontrollably, he said angrily: "In the dream... I'm home, there are Mani, Ma Congrong, An Rushan, Yuanman...everyone is here, and you are also there. "

Gu Chengxi's breath was messed up, and he wanted to laugh, but when he spoke, he was crying: "Where else am I?"

Huo Xiangzhen took a few breaths in silence, trying her best to finish the sentence: "You are in a dream... you are still my regiment leader, I will let you go back to Baoding for military training, you are lazy and disobedient..."

Gu Chengxi's tears dripped onto the red satin quilt: "I am obedient, and I will always listen to you from now on. Peace, let's stop fighting, can we live a good life for a few days? I will protect you and take care of you. You want to inherit my family Don't stop me, as long as you are happy, as long as you are willing to be nice to me, you can do whatever you want, I will leave it to you."

His tears were streaming down, but Huo Xiangzhen's expression was indifferent, and he just shook his head: "I'm not Ping An, I'm Huo Jingheng."

Gu Chengxi was speechless, and stretched his hand into the bed, he groped for Huo Xiangzhen's hand.That hand was rough and hot, so thin that there were only bones and no flesh.He squeezed hard, desperately, exhausting all his strength.It had to be like this, otherwise he suspected that he would immediately run wild and crazy on this big kang.He wants peace, he wants it too much, but there is no peace in the world, only tranquility.

Huo Xiangzhen's perception was already very dull, and he coughed a few more times unbearably, and continued panting, "My time is over... If I haven't done a good job in my life, it's over... If you can Give me a shot, and it will be my fulfillment."

Gu Chengxi grabbed Huo Xiangzhen's hand, as if grabbing a life-saving straw: "I gave up my life to save you from the river... Now you let me shoot you..." He choked with sobs and his eyes turned red: "I Who will fulfill you, who will fulfill me?"

Huo Xiangzhen didn't answer, it was like a pot was boiling in his chest, boiling and burning.This is life is worse than death, Gu Chengxi can't fulfill him, so he has no choice but to find a way to fulfill himself.
