[Comprehensive] The Birth of the Dramatist

Chapter 40 Dugu Tianxia: 0 Distance from the General

After the banquet, Xiao Nuo was walking casually on the street, a woman in coarse linen came out of an alley in a hurry, and was about to bump into her, Xiao Nuo hurriedly stretched out his hand to support her.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The woman apologized, and squatted down to pick up the package on the ground. Although she was wearing coarse clothes, her hands were not the hands of a servant, and there was a strong smell of blood lingering on her body, as if she had just experienced a bloody battle.

The medicinal materials were scattered on the ground, and the woman quickly picked them up, but Xiao Nuo had already seen some very precious medicinal materials among them, which were often used for detoxification, and ordinary people could not afford to consume them at all.

Who is she?

Who is sick?

There was commotion on the other side of the street, a parade of ten people led by Geshu was driving towards this side, the woman hurriedly turned around and avoided into an alley beside her.

Ge Shu got off his horse and cupped his hands to Xiao Nuo: "Miss Cousin, my lord please go back to your residence immediately."

Xiao Nuo snorted coldly, "I thought of me at this time, but unfortunately I'm not free."

Yu Wenhu also takes herself too seriously, why should she, Xiao Nuo, keep him calling her around?

Ge Shu shoved the reins into Xiao Nuo's hands, with an eager expression on his face, "This is a very important matter, please put the country's affairs first, my lord has really encountered a problem this time."

Xiao Nuo got on the horse and slowly returned to the Grand Master's Mansion. Yu Wenhu had walked back and forth in the lobby for more than a hundred times with his hands behind his back. When he saw Xiao Nuo, he immediately greeted him happily, "Xiao Nuo, you are finally back , I have been waiting here for half an hour."

Xiao Nuo didn't bother to pay attention to him, he swaggered and sat on the chair, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

Yu Wenxun presented a box of pearls in front of Xiao Nuo, each pearl inside was as big as a pigeon egg, either pink or white, even in the daytime, they were fluorescent and sparkling.

Xiao Nuo raised his finger and poked Pearl, "With such a big deal, the things you want me to do must not be easy."

Yu Wenhu smiled, and he was flattering, "Simple, it's too simple for you, I believe you are the only one in this world who can do it."

Xiao Nuo closed the box, smiled lightly, "Don't put a high hat on me so quickly, I can't bear it."

"Actually... just want you to help me find someone."

"Who?" For some reason, Xiao Nuo's mind suddenly flashed the figure of the suspicious woman he met just now.

Yu Wenhu straightened his face, "Gao Su."

"Gao Su? Gao Changgong? Lanling King?"

"Yes, it is him."

King of Lanling, whose name is Su, whose courtesy name is Changgong, is the God of War in the Northern Qi Dynasty. He is one of the four great beauties in ancient times. The soldiers are divided equally.

Compared with Gao Huan, Gao Zhan, and Gao Wei, who are personal beasts, they are simply children of other people's families. Not only do they not mess with men and women, but they also focus on state affairs.

His father Gao Cheng committed adultery with his grandfather Gao Huan's concubine when he was the prince, and was almost killed. Later, he refused to change his nature and intended to get involved in the wife of his subordinate Gao Zhongmi. Guan personally offered it, but the two countries fought hard.

The historical record is the first battle of Mangshan. Although Gao Huan won, he was almost shot into a hedgehog.

During the second battle of Mangshan, Gao Changgong was in the army of Zhongjun. He led only 500 men and broke through the siege of tens of thousands of horses from the Zhou army. He wrote "Lanling Entering the Battle" to praise his merits and virtues, but all of this aroused Gao Wei's resentment, and was finally given poisonous wine when he was only 33 years old.

Only three years after his death, Qi State was destroyed.

Such a genius, who spent his whole life serving the country and the people, made outstanding contributions, but failed to die well, how can it be regrettable.

Xiao Nuo suddenly became excited for no reason, felt every cell in her body tremble, and her hands were trembling faintly.

King Lanling...

This is much more meaningful than seeing Qin Shihuang, although it is only a film and television drama.

"Where is he?"

Yu Wenhu noticed the light flashing in Xiao Nuo's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "He hijacked the prison car and sneaked into Chang'an City now. Only I know about this. I want to find him before anyone else."

"Find him and then? Kill him?"

Yu Wenhu felt that only he nodded, Xiao Nuo was about to leave immediately, fortunately his original intention was not to kill him, "I want to exchange his life for my mother."

Xiao Nuo nodded, "You said he robbed the prison van, where did he rob it?"

"At the crossroads of the South Street Vegetable Market, he was shot by Ge Shu's arrow, which was poisonous, but I didn't order all the medicine shops to be blocked because I was afraid of attracting attention."

"Okay, leave this to me, but let's say it first, if you want to kill him, then I won't."

Seeing Xiao Nuo defending Gao Changgong so much, Yu Wenhu couldn't help wondering, "You knew him before?"

Xiao Nuo smiled, without denying it.

After turning seven or eight streets and four or five alleys, Xiao Nuo completely got rid of Yu Wenhu's followers, sneaked into a commoner's house, changed his clothes, and then walked slowly towards the destination.

For the first time, Xiao Nuo deeply felt the benefits brought to her by the value of force, that is, even in such a chaotic world of swords and blood, she can still enjoy a high degree of personal freedom.

She stopped in front of an inconspicuous courtyard door, as if she was timid, not daring to go forward.

This feeling can only be felt when facing her idols. Although it was a long time ago, every time I think of it, I want to jump wildly with excitement.

At this time, the door suddenly opened, and the woman who almost bumped into Xiao Nuo during the day came out with a basket, she was only in her early twenties, with delicate features and lively eyes.

When he looked up and saw Xiao Nuo, he was startled at first, but soon calmed down, "Girl, who are you looking for?"

Xiao Nuo smiled, "I'm looking for Ah Si, isn't he here?"

The woman shook her head, "Ah Si and his friends went out to the western suburbs, and they said they won't be back until tomorrow."

Xiao Nuo continued to ask: "Who is my sister? Why haven't I seen you before?"

A trace of vigilance flashed in the woman's eyes, "Oh, I'm his cousin from afar. I just came here yesterday. It's normal that you haven't seen her before."

Xiao Nuo laughed again, "Oh, is that so? I came to Ah Si's house to play a few days ago, and unfortunately I lost something here, can my sister let me go in and look for it?"

The woman smiled, but grabbed the basket tightly, "What is my sister looking for? Do you need my sister's help?"

"No, it's just a small thing. It should be thrown in the yard. I will definitely find it." Xiao Nuo stared at her, and suddenly smiled, "My sister is so nervous, but she treats me as a thief? Or is it hidden at home?" Who is it, is it inconvenient?"

The woman raised her hand and rolled up the broken hair beside her ears, "There is no such thing, since my sister insists, please come in, but Ah Si will definitely not be able to come back today."

Xiao Nuo nodded, "Thank you sister, you are really a good person."

The woman turned around and opened the courtyard door, surrounded by houses on three sides, the courtyard was empty, the courtyard wall was decayed, the mud seal on it was peeled off all over the ground, and weeds were everywhere on the ground. A sackcloth dress that doesn't raise your eyes.

Before Xiao Nuo took a few steps, he smelled a strong stench, which should be the smell from the rotting wound.

There was a slight coughing sound in the room, and a low and hoarse male voice asked, "Ma'am, is there any guest here?"

The woman stepped forward and replied: "It's okay, Ah Si's good friend is here to find something. If you are not well, don't come out. The doctor said you can't see the wind for the time being."

Xiao Nuo smelled those pungent smells, his heart shuddered, and he couldn't help but asked with concern: "What serious illness has happened to my sister's husband?"

The woman looked sad, "Not long ago when I was chopping firewood in the countryside, I was bitten by a poisonous snake. The doctor said that the snake is very poisonous and it will not heal in a while."

"Can you let me take a look?" Xiao Nuo said: "My grandfather used to be a doctor, I grew up with him, and he is especially good at detoxification, why don't sister let me take a look for your husband, maybe it can be saved."

The woman was a little embarrassed, "Why is this so embarrassing?"

Xiao Nuo tugged at her sleeve, "Sister, don't worry, I won't pay for the consultation, but since it happened to me, I should do my best, otherwise I will feel uneasy."

There was another cough in the room, the woman finally compromised, and led Xiao Nuo to the wing.

Xiao Nuo stared at the door, clenched his fists involuntarily, his palms became hotter and hotter.

"Sir, we're coming in." The woman greeted, then pushed open the door and invited Xiao Nuo to come in.

Xiao Nuo had just stepped into the room, before he saw the situation clearly, he dropped a sack from the sky, Xiao Nuo's figure swept out, tapped lightly on the table, and the person stuck to the wall.

The one holding the sack was a young man with well-developed muscles and a fierce look in his eyes. Seeing that he missed a hit, he took out several hidden marks.

Xiao Nuo flicked his fingers lightly, and shot out a burst of energy that hit the acupuncture point on his wrist, and the hidden mark fell to the ground with two jingling bells.

The woman stepped forward and said, "Who are you? What are you going to do?"

Just as Xiao Nuo was about to speak, a voice brushed her cheek like a breeze, "Madam, Zhu Hai, she is not hostile, so don't be nervous."

She turned her head, only one glance, everything was silent.

The noble young man with a handsome face was only wearing a coarse cloth singlet, and was leaning on a tattered grand master's chair. He looked at her from the window, his blue hair was scattered, and although his face was tired, his eyes were as bright as shot down. The lightning under the rock resounded across Xiao Nuo's heart like clouds.

Obviously it's just the first meeting, but it seems that they are old friends who have known each other for many years.

Xiao Nuo jumped down from the wall, straightened his clothes, restrained his frivolity and disrespect, and saluted the man very solemnly, "Xiao Nuo, I have seen the general."

A joyful smile flashed across the young master's flowing eyes, "There is only Gao Changgong here, and there are no generals."

The author has something to say: Recently, I got stuck again, I’m afraid I can’t write a good general, general...
