The general went out again at night

"You are...General Xia?" The woman who turned her head saw Xia Qingshu's face clearly in the direction the little girl pointed.The clear result has become uncertain because of the national tragedy a few months ago.

The death of General Xia in the battle is well known throughout the country. Could it be that she came back from the dead?Or was she not dead at all?

The woman's expression suddenly turned to astonishment, her cheeks trembled, her willow eyebrows were slightly frowned, and she waited with bated breath for the answer from the person in front of her.

"I'm not General Xia." Xia Qingshu replied in a deep voice, shaking his head solemnly.

The woman stared at Xia Qingshu's eyes, was silent for a while, understood what she wanted to convey, and nodded: "I understand, General Xia has passed away, and there will be no more in this world."

The little girl who had stopped crying was in a fog, biting her index finger and sucking her snot, her eyes alternated between Xia Qingshu and her mother.

The woman hugged the little girl into her arms, wiped the tears from her cheeks, and explained in a warm voice: "Aru, this is not General Xia, we have mistaken him, this benefactor just looks a little like General Xia. "

The little girl lay on the woman's back, frowning tightly, staring at Xia Qingshu, carefully identifying her.After a while, he loosened his brows and said in a very low tone, "I really misidentified the person."

Xia Qingshu felt relieved, and was affected by the little girl's low cry in an instant, frowning.She knelt down, stroked the little girl's cheeks wet with tears, and said in a soft voice: "General Xia is missed by so many people, even though he died, he is honored. She is the spirit of heaven, and I hope that everyone will be happy when they think of her." Honorable, not weeping and mourning, understand?"

The little girl bit her fingers to suppress her crying, her eyes were red like rabbit eyes, filled with tears.After hearing Xia Qingshu's words, her tears stopped falling, and she nodded heavily.

"So obedient." Xia Qingshu didn't know if she really understood what she said at such a young age, but this obedient appearance suppressing crying really made people feel affectionate.Xia Qingshu stroked the little girl's soft hair again, then straightened up, pointed to the right side and said, "From where we come from, we can see a county town by walking four or five miles along that road. You can enter the county town as soon as possible, I will not be harassed by these bandits."

"Thank you benefactors!" The woman embraced the little girl and kowtowed.

"We still have something to do, so let's say goodbye here. Take care." Xia Qingshu clasped his fists and said, then turned around and walked to another fork in the road.

The remaining three also waved goodbye to the mother and daughter, then caught up with Xia Qingshu and left together.

The midday sun shone through the sparse leaves in the forest, and a bird flapped its wings and flew from the top of one tree to the top of another tree.

One, one, and one were still slumped on the ground, watching the four of them leave.The figure disappeared behind the shade of the tree, and a muffled sound that had been endured for a long time resounded. The woman's face suddenly turned pale, her lips were bloodless, her hand was raised from her abdomen, and a stream of warm blood flowed out.

The woman's hands were covered with blood, and a bamboo leaf dart was stuck in her abdomen.

The blood flowed out, the woman was dizzy, and soon her eyes were dark.Under the little girl's exclamation, she fell down slowly.

The little girl's mournful cry echoed in the mountains and forests again: "Aniang! Aniang, wake up!"

This cry was a hundred times more sorrowful than just now, the few people who had left did not go far, and turned back quickly after hearing the cry.

The fresh blood stained the emerald green grass. When Cai Zhujun saw the bamboo-leaf dart stuck in the woman's belly, his face changed drastically, and he said in a dull voice, "This... this..."

Ji Qianyao pulled the little girl away and turned her back to the horrifying scene.Xia Qingshu squatted down to check the woman's abdomen: "It should be when the bandit used his sword to block the bamboo dart, but the bamboo dart rebounded and accidentally injured the woman. Miss Cai... can't blame you for that." ..."

Xia Qingshu knew that Cai Zhujun was a pure and kind person, and wanted to relieve her regret and pain.

But with this tragic scene clearly in front of him, Xia Qingshu's words didn't help much.

Cai Zhujun felt very uncomfortable, those bandits were strong outside, but she could kill them with close combat without hurting innocent people.

"Let's take her to find a doctor." After a long silence, Cai Zhujun's voice trembled slightly.

Yang Xiyu was also anxious, pointing to the county town not far to the right and said, "Go there, it's close!"

Xia Qingshu sighed heavily, shook his head and said, "It's late, she's out of breath."

The air seemed to have condensed, and the mountains and forests were eerily quiet.

Ji Qianyao's hands sank, and when he looked down, he saw that the little girl with tears all over her face had passed out.

***

This accident occurred halfway, and all plans were disrupted.

The dead woman was buried in a hidden place in the forest. If relatives can be found, they will be brought back.The little girl's breathing was weak, and everyone worried that she would be too sad, so they hurriedly took her back to the county town to seek treatment from a doctor.

After being settled in an inn, Yang Xiyu found an old man with gray hair.

"Lang Zhong, how is she?" Cai Zhujun asked anxiously as soon as the old Lang Zhong withdrew his hand to feel the pulse.Afraid of disturbing the little girl's rest, she kept her voice very low.

"I was frightened on the way, and my mother passed away suddenly. The blow was too great, and the pulse condition was extremely unstable. I need to rest for a while."

"How long will it take her to wake up?"

"Three to five days." The old man stroked his long white beard and said, "I'll prescribe some medicine, you boil it up, and feed her on time. Take care of her these days, otherwise it will leave a lifetime of illness."

"Understood, thank you, Langzhong."

The situation of the little girl was worse than they expected, and the doctor was sent away, and the four of them gathered in the hall without any smiles on their faces.

After being silent for a while, Cai Zhujun suggested: "We need to split things up. This little girl doesn't know where her home is or who her relatives are, so she can't be left here alone. Ah Yu and I will stay and take care of her these days. The matter between Yan and Dr. Shen should not be delayed, you go and find them."

All plans can't keep up with the changes, and things have come to this, and that's the only way to go.The four reached a consensus, and Xia Qingshu and Ji Qianyao looked at each other: "We will set off in half an hour."

"Be careful." Tens of thousands of reminders finally turned into these two words.

Xia Qingshu and Ji Qianyao set off, and Cai Zhujun and Yang Xiyu watched them go away from the window of the inn.

Cai Zhujun looked at the two people who were drifting away, and he was rarely flustered: "Ayu, I always have a bad feeling."

"Fake." Yang Xiyu grabbed Cai Zhujun's shoulders and grinned, "My hunch is that we will all be safe and sound."

Cai Zhujun leaned his head on Yang Xiyu's shoulder, looked out the window, his eyebrows and eyes were bent.

Behind them, on the quiet bed, a small head turned around, with a weird smile on the corner of its mouth.Her eyelids opened a slit, and her purple eyes projected on the two of them through the spacious wing room.

After staring at it for a moment, the head lying on the side turned back to its original position, and the Youzi pupils slowly closed.

Transient changes occur without warning and end without warning.

***

Xia Qingshu and Ji Qianyao, who were supposed to go north, diverted to go west, and they returned to the forest where they found the mother and daughter.

"I always feel that those two people appear a little strange." In front of the raised small mound, Xia Qingshu stopped, folded her arms, and circled around the small mound.

Ji Qianyao also had a similar feeling, "If there is fraud, nine out of ten, the woman's body is not here."

Xia Qingshu chopped a wooden stick from a dead tree nearby, "In order to eliminate doubts, let's confirm whether the body is there. If it was a misunderstanding, we will apologize to this woman."

"Let's dig." Ji Qianyao also found a short stick, and bent down together with Xia Qingshu to dig the soil.

It was only two days before the burial, and the soil in the small mound was still soft, so it was not difficult to dig.After digging for about two sticks of incense, greenery appeared under Xia Qingshu's stick.

She quickly stopped what she was doing, discarded the bamboo stick, and used her hands to dig the soil.

The green under the soil is two large banana leaves that the four people covered the woman, and the woman's body was under the banana leaves.

As long as the banana leaf is lifted, one can know whether all this is really an accident or someone did it deliberately.

After removing the soil from the banana leaves, Xia Qingshu pinched the upper petiole and lifted the banana leaves.

The woman's body is still there, but her face is even paler than two days ago, without a trace of blood.From time to time, a few carrion insects crawled around her body.

Xia Qingshu squatted at the side, scanning her eyes carefully twice from top to bottom, and finally rested her eyes on the side face of the woman smeared with mud.

For some reason, when she was about to look away, she saw a mole on the earlobe of the woman, and unconsciously looked twice more.

"It's because we're worrying too much, let's fill it up with soil." Ji Qianyao also looked around the corpse for a long time, but she didn't see any tricks, and finally could only restore it angrily.

Xia Qing put down the banana leaf slowly, covered the woman's lifeless face, and piled the soil on the banana leaf with his hands.

The mound recovered as before, Xia Qingshu and Ji Qianyao retreated to the back, bowed and clasped their fists together and said, "I'm offended."

I prayed three times in a row to express my apology.

"Let's go, the real test for us is yet to come." Xia Qingshu untied the rope tied to the tree, and jumped onto the steed.Ji Qianyao followed closely and stepped on another steed.

The two left with their whips on their horses, and the clatter of horseshoes echoed in the forest.

The two people who went away didn't know that after they left the forest, there was a strange movement in the small mound they had turned over in the empty forest, and there were several cracks on the top of the mound. Little loose clods of mud tumbled down.

Two skinny palms got out from the crack, grabbed a handful of soil and let go, a thin vine spread upwards around the wrist, the curly leaves stretched out, and then the branches and leaves of the thin vine opened. up blue and white flowers.
