Weicheng snow

Yeluo's complexion is not as bright as before, and it seems that she can't hold on for too long, she stands on the top of the tent, staring at the bean in Yi Qingchen's arms, Hua Shenchi stops in front of Yi Qingchen, and puts it with her Separated by Yeluo, Yeluo stared at it for a long time before turning her gaze away and pounced on the group of guards whose eyes had been splashed with black blood earlier, grabbed one of them and took him to a room a little further away. On the top, cut your throat and drink blood.

The guard whose throat was cut struggled a bit at first, but then gradually became motionless.

Yeluo smashed the blood-drained corpse at the group of guards who came to save them, but her physical condition would not recover for a while, and she was still weak, but outside the tent, the triumphant horns of the Imperial Forest Army sounded.

Yi Qingchen looked up at the sky, it should be far behind dawn, did Yu Mu encircle and suppress the remnants of the Marrow Sect in that valley so quickly?

Yeluo was also a little surprised, "How could it be so fast..."

The Imperial Forest Army and the palace guards in front of me are not of the same importance. Most of the guards have never seen a big scene, and many of them are sons and daughters sent to the palace by rich families. Ye Luo dares to be so presumptuous when things happen, but the Imperial Forest Army is an army. He is a bloody man who dares to fight and kill, and there are so many of them. If the Imperial Forest Army returns, let alone rescue Dou Zi, Wu Liang and Ye Luo may not be able to protect themselves.

Yeluo immediately and decisively said to Wuliang, "Let's go!"

Ruying immediately said, "Stop them!"

The spear on Monk Wuliang's shoulder really got heavier, and the guard holding the spear was far away from Monk Wuliang, so as not to be injured by Wuliang's internal force. Seeing it, Yeluo was very annoyed, and cursed, "Smelly monk! You Break away!" Monk Wuliang only turned his head to look at the Douzi in Yi Qingchen's arms.

Right now, Yi Qingchen was standing very close to the spear-wielding guards, Wuliang didn't dare to act rashly, Yeluo belatedly noticed where Yi Qingchen was standing, and cursed shamelessly in a low voice, ignoring Ruying and Jiang Zhige With the stabbing moves of Yuan Huo and others, he suffered several more sword strikes before he rushed to Wuliang, cut off the spear, jumped up together with Wuliang's collar, and fled to a place where there were few people.

Ruying led her men in hot pursuit, and they disappeared into the night together.

Some of the guards stayed behind to deal with the aftermath, arranged for the wounded, moved the corpses, and Yi Qingchen searched for Ruhui's traces. After all, when Yeluo broke down the tent earlier, Ruhui was also under the pressure. I don't know if the little girl was injured or not. .

After searching for a few times, I saw Ruhui running from a distance, beckoning to Yi Qingchen, "My lord, go to Ruying's tent and wait for a while." Seeing that Ruhui is fine, Yi Qingchen felt relieved Some, holding Douzi and Hua Shenchi followed.

Ruhui stared at Douzi in a coma for a while, then smiled with peace of mind, "My lord really cares about Douzi very much. I was a little surprised that he worked so hard before..."

Yi Qingchen explained, "Actually, I really like children. The more obedient I am, the more I like them. If the background is poorer, I always feel that I should do something for them. I can't let their childhood be like mine... ..”

Ruohui was silent for a moment thoughtfully, then smiled gratifiedly, "My lord, you are really kind... If you treat everyone like this, the people close to you will be jealous."

Yi Qingchen smiled awkwardly, looked at Hua Shenchi who was expressionless at the moment, and said with a smile, "Wood can't, but Xiaoqian... that little vinegar jar, if he knows about this Things, probably will be sulking again..."

After returning to Ruying's tent, Yi Qingchen carefully placed the beans on the couch. Although Ruhui had made a rough bandage for the beans earlier, the technique was really not flattering. In addition, there were ribs scratching the spleen. Shen Chi's elixir protection had been scrambled and snatched away before, and the bumps were endless, which would inevitably aggravate the injury.

Right now, Douzi's complexion can be said to be very bad. Hua Shenchi was sitting by the couch to examine it. As soon as his fingers crossed his chest, his brows frowned imperceptibly, and Tongyi Qingchen said, "I need surgery." , you go and call Shen Sheng."

Yi Qingchen went to find Shen Sheng according to his orders, and when he returned to the tent, Hua Shenchi had already sterilized a set of knives in the medicine box, and was applying anesthetics to the beans.

Shen Sheng hurried forward to help, if he could stand aside, he couldn't help, he could only watch helplessly as the blade cut open the delicate skin of the bean, and blood gushed out, Hua Shenchi wiped it away with gauze, revealing the bright red under the skin flesh and bones wrapped in flesh and blood.

From Yi Qingchen's point of view, it can be clearly seen that some bones have been broken, and some have been broken into small pieces and adhered to the inner wall of the chest cavity. Very serious look.

It's a tricky operation.

Yi Qingchen deduced this from Hua Shenchi's expression, and then quietly exited the tent.

Even though he has seen countless corpses, he still finds it hard to accept seeing a living person being disemboweled. This feeling is very delicate. Yi Qingchen doesn't know how to describe it, so he can only stand quietly outside the tent to blow the wind, waiting for Hua Shenchi's order .

Ruhui also followed, blowing the wind with Yi Qingchen, Yi Qingchen turned his head to look at Ruhui, and continued to look at the stars in the sky.

After a long while, Ruhui suddenly asked, "My lord, are you afraid of war?"

Yi Qingchen didn't understand why Ruhui would ask this question, so he just said truthfully, "I haven't experienced such a large scale before, don't be afraid, after coming to Yaozhou, I seem to understand a little..."

If so, he asked, "What do you understand?"

Yi Qingchen thought for a moment, and then summed it up succinctly, "One will accomplish everything."

Ruhui was silent when he heard the words, raised his eyes and asked, "The army fights for its king. There is no dynasty that does not fight. If it does not fight, it will only be eroded...so in order to protect its king, the general and his Every soldier must fight..."

Yi Qingchen laughed softly when he heard the words, "You are still the same, ignoring the people...how can you be a king without people?"

Ruhui said, "The people live to serve the king, they are just ants."

Yi Qingchen looked into Ruhui's eyes with a complicated expression, and stated a fact, "But I'm also a citizen."

Ruhui closed his eyes and said with a smile, "Even if I lose my country and the belief of all the people, my monarch will always be my monarch, the image in my heart, and the one I will serve all my life. Pay all your heart and soul for it, and only exist for it.”

This sentence that Ruhui will read comes from Shen Sheng's sword manual "Sword Dance of the North Snow Country". Although it is only a fragment, there is such a sentence written on the title page. After reading it, she seems to like this sentence very much, saying that it has a sense of dust on the battlefield.

Yi Qingchen also likes it very much, he likes such loyalty.

Murong Qian also likes it very much, although Yi Qingchen doesn't understand why he likes it, when asked, Murong Qian just shook his head and refused to say.

Yi Qingchen laughed and said nothing, Ruhui opened his eyes and looked at Yi Qingchen for a moment, then asked, "My lord, you don't wonder why I said these things tonight?"

Yi Qingchen shook his head, "People do what they say and do as they please. If you want to find an excuse for any reason, I will listen to you."

Ruhui laughed "puchi", waved his hands and said, "My lord, you really...should go to practice Taoism."

Not long after, Ruying and Jiang Zhige returned without success, it seems that they failed to catch up with Yeluo and Wuliang.

When the two came to the tent, they saw Yi Qingchen and Ruhui blocking the way, their faces were puzzled, Yi Qingchen explained the situation inside the tent, and Ruying understood, "There is a top not far away. The empty tent is where I used to store my luggage, I can go there to rest first. Yi Baixue, come with me."

Yi Qingchen followed Ruying for a few steps, and found that Ruhui hadn't followed, so Ruhui explained, "My lord, go and rest first, I'll watch for a while, and I'll know when the brothers and elders come out later." Let them know your whereabouts, lest the elders can't find you again."

Yi Qingchen thanked Ruhui for his kindness, and followed Ruying to another tent a hundred steps away. As soon as Fang sat down, Ruying asked, "What is the relationship between that Douzi and you? Why did you eat marrow?" Teachers also want to fight for it?"

Yi Qingchen went through the whole story, Ruying frowned, "Now that everyone knows that this girl is the cause of the disaster, how do you tell me to calm down the anger?"

Jiang Zhige interjected at the right time, "Mr. Dugu was also injured because of this, Yu Shuai will be furious when he comes back. Mr. Yi, you have caused trouble..."

Yi Qingchen was taken aback for a moment, and asked belatedly, "This...what's wrong?"

Jiang Zhige explained, "Although I understand that you are kind enough to save people, son, others will think that you saved a person from the Marrow Sect. Besides, this matter will not end so easily. Now that girl's identity has been exposed and she has become a It is the target of public criticism, if you refuse to hand her over, you may be implicated and fall into the crime together."

Yi Qingchen was silent, and Jiang Zhige said again, "I can explain the matter of saving people, young master, you saved him without knowing it, and those who don't know are innocent, and you also indirectly helped us break through the defense in the valley outside the city, Yu Shuai will be punished at that time, and I can still excuse you, but according to your temper, young master, if Yu Shuai is important, you will definitely not hand it over, right?"

Yi Qingchen understood the purpose of Ruying and Jiang Zhige calling him here.

There is no one else here except the three of them, and it is much more convenient to talk, Jiang Zhige said bluntly, "I was the one who spoke too hard earlier, so I won't cause trouble, but if you refuse to hand over the little girl, son, you will become a Covering the marrow-eating sect members, this disaster, this crime is serious."

Yi Qingchen was entangled in his heart, unable to give an answer immediately. From his own considerations, handing over the little girl would be the best policy, but it would be too cruel for him to sacrifice an innocent little girl to obtain forgiveness, but If he doesn't make friends, not only will he get into trouble, Lingshan may also be implicated because of this, he must not implicate Hua Chenchi again.

The wind blowing in from the curtain flickered the candlelight, Ruying and Jiang Zhige didn't bother to urge Yi Qingchen, because they couldn't accept sacrificing a little girl, but the overall situation is the overall situation, and now It was precisely during the Southern Expedition that if there was civil strife, it would be tantamount to self-destruction, so calming public anger was the most important thing.

The few people were still silent, but the door curtain was lifted from the outside, Hua Shenchi and Shen Sheng walked in, when Yi Qingchen saw Hua Shenchi, he asked, "The operation is done?"

Hua Shenchi nodded, glanced over the crowd, noticed something was wrong, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yi Qingchen rubbed his temples and said, "In order to appease the anger of other aristocratic sects, I have to hand over the beans."

Shen Sheng was taken aback for a moment, and said in surprise, "Why?"

Ruying frowned, "Brother, keep your voice down."

Yi Qingchen said casually, "Jianzong suffered the most casualties in this battle, and the other aristocratic families also had younger generations sacrificed. They believe that Douzi is a member of the Marrow Sect, so they cannot keep it."

Shen Sheng held his sword in his arms, showing an extremely aggrieved expression, "So you called us here for this matter? I would rather be punished by the senior brother for copying the "Pharmacopia" a hundred times than make such a decision."

Yi Qingchen knew that behind Shen Sheng's character was some indecision, and it was really unrealistic to rely on him to make a decision. At the same time, Yi Qingchen also noticed a problem in Shen Sheng's words, "Did we call you here?"

"We didn't call you over..."

Shen Sheng was surprised and said, "How is it possible, if you will clearly say that it is you..." Immediately realized something, opened his eyes wide and looked at Hua Shenchi, ran out of the tent in a panic, followed by Yi Qingchen and others Later, when I rushed back to Ruying's tent, the bed was empty, and the beans that had been lying there were gone.

Hua Shenchi walked to the bed to check, Shen Sheng explained to everyone, "The effect of the anesthetic has not expired, Douzi can't wake up by himself." After the words fell, Hua Shenchi found an extra item from the cabinet next to the bed. things.He said he found it, but in fact it was placed on top of the cabinet generously. When Yi Qingchen saw this thing, his heart was shocked, and he quickly reached out to take it.

It was a flat oiled paper bag with a bamboo stick sticking out of it. A corner of the oiled paper bag had been blown away by the wind, revealing the golden outline of the sugar painting inside.

"Ah..." Yi Qingchen suddenly lost his strength and let out a long sigh. He seemed to understand why Ruhui said those things to him earlier...

Ruying, Jiang Zhige, and Shen Sheng were all a little unclear, so Hua Shenchi roughly guessed the truth, and explained to the three people who didn't know, "It should be that the people from the Food Marrow Sect disguised themselves as Ruhui and lied to me. When you leave, you have robbed Douzi, and you can go nearby to find out where Ruhui is."

After the three of them retreated, Yi Qingchen let go of all his strength and sat down on the ground in front of the bed, with his back leaning against the bed, staring at Tang Hua in a daze.

Hua Shenchi silently tidied up the mess in the tent, picked up the papers scattered on the ground by the wind one by one, sterilized the knives one by one, and put them back together. After more than half an hour passed, he was able to say with a light dust in his clothes, " In this way, there is no need to think about whether the beans will be handed over."

Yi Qingchen nodded, got up slowly, walked to Hua Shenchi and sat down, handed the sugar painting over, and said a little weakly, "Do you want to eat?"

Hua Shenchi glanced at the sugar painting, and said lightly, "I don't like sweets."

Yi Qingchen nodded silently, continued to stare at the sugar painting in a daze, and said after a long while, "My head hurts."

Hua Shenchi reached out and touched Yi Qingchen's forehead. His body temperature was normal, but Yi Qingchen's mental state was not normal. Seeing this, Hua Shenchi sighed helplessly, and took away Yi Qingchen's hand. Yi Qingchen stared at Hua Shenchi for a moment with a half-smile, and then said in a low voice, "I'm so afraid of what Xiaoqian will do..."

"I've always wanted to say..." Hua Shenchi said word by word, "You are you, he is him, what does he do has nothing to do with you? You don't have to take the blame on yourself, You have taught him the most basic principles, how will he go in the future, he has her own destiny, and you can't stop it."

Yi Qingchen's eyes dimmed, "Yes..."

Hua Shenchi sighed helplessly, let go of his hand, and the sugar painting fell to the ground, shattered into countless residues, Yi Qingchen's gaze moved down with the sugar painting, and he didn't notice that Hua Shenchi reached out to his head The hand behind the back, when I noticed it again, Hua Shenchi's face was already close at hand.

After a long while, Yi Qingchen panted and pushed the Huachenchi, a string of silver wires was pulled off and hung in the corner of his mouth, Yi Qingchen raised his hand to wipe it, before he could speak, Huachenchi pushed it again It's blocked.
