stand back, let me come

Chapter 1379: Nightmare Comes True [Seeking Monthly Ticket]

Gongyang Yongye thought about it over and over again but still felt uneasy.

[Although I am not an upright gentleman, I know that a promise is worth a thousand gold. No matter whether it is to seize the body or to change the head, since I promised Lady Xiang to protect her, I will not break my promise easily.] He decided to take a risk and tie up Xiang Zhao first.

The more Luo San listened, the more he felt something was wrong.

In fact, he had wanted to ask what the relationship between Gongyang Yongye and Xiang Zhao was a long time ago. This old man seemed to be too concerned about Xiang Zhao.

Could it be that they are the descendants of a lost pearl in the ocean that has been lost among the people?

It doesn't sound like that, it sounds more like this old guy is not serious.

Luan Xin said: [Find a way to contact her first.]

If she has her own plans, forcibly interfering will only do harm.

Gongyang Yongye was unhappy but could only obey, changing the subject and saying, "In that case, I will come again tomorrow. Minister Luan, please take a rest first. I will prescribe you a decoction to calm your mind and replenish your blood."

Luan Xin couldn't help but yawn. His head became more and more dizzy. He forced himself to stay conscious and said, "In this case, I'll trouble you, my Lord."

When Gongyang Yongye personally prepared the medicine and brought it over, Luan Xin was already half leaning against the bed and sleeping soundly. Luo San, the old man, was sitting beside him with his eyes closed, holding a sharp weapon in his hand. The candlelight in the tent flickered, and the shadow of the sharp blade swayed with it: "If Minister Luan opened his eyes and saw this scene, he would be scared sick even if he was not sick."

I don't know if it's because Luo San is guilty, but he is particularly concerned about Luan Xin's sickly state. It's really strange that the dignified Che Hou would condescend to take the initiative to guard the night for him. Gongyang Yongye put the medicine aside, and beat off a ball of martial energy to retain the best medicinal effect and keep the medicine at the best entrance temperature. He also found a corner to sit down and prepare to deal with it all night.

Luo San said: "It is better to be safe than sorry."

What if these people are so shameless as to carry out an assassination?

Gong Yang Yongye said: "Ah, fighting and killing... It's really boring. It's not as interesting as dreaming about learning medicine... Speaking of which, the doctors in Kangguo are quite good at regenerating severed fingers, so can they also connect the head to the body?"

He was still thinking about the head transplant.

Luo San just sneered when he heard this: "If you can do this, even a 20th-rank Chehou will become someone else's meal."

Even a 20th-rank Chehou might be besieged and worn out by a war of attrition. For such dangerous things that go against human ethics and the laws of nature, don't think about what you can gain from them. Think about whether you will be targeted and become a source of bodies.

Gong Yangyongye muttered: "Why are you so serious?"

He tried to enter into a state of meditation, but was unable to do so several times.

"Robert, could you please put away your knife?"

A brave warrior is very sensitive to the breath and rejects everything that threatens him. This is an instinct engraved in his bones! He was very uncomfortable staying in the same tent with Luo San. The old man was still holding a weapon, which made Gong Yang Yongye unable to relax.

Every time I close my eyes I feel like there's something on my mind.

Luo San said, "Will staying awake all night kill you?"

Gong Yang Yongye: "..."
-

Luan Xin realized that he was dreaming.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a familiar but obviously much more disciplined face enlarged in front of him: "Why are you here?"

As soon as he asked, Luan Xin noticed that the surrounding environment had changed drastically.

Wasn't he in the Central Allied Camp before he woke up?

Although the beams here are low and the decorations are simple, it is obviously not a tent. The most important thing is why is this person here?

This person had worked with him under the command of Qiu Cheng, and also worked for Kangguo for several years. Later, he was mentally broken by the workload of the Ministry of Personnel, and resigned from his post: [The world is so big, I want to go and see it. ]

I've been hanging out outside for three years and I don't want to leave.

Not long ago, Luan Xin wrote him a letter and asked him to come back. But when he heard about the great victory in the southwest, he calculated on his fingers and decided not to read the letter.

Everyone who has worked in Kangguo knows that the workload is the heaviest during the integration of new territories, and the Ministry of Personnel still treats men and women as cattle and horses. Although the salary is high, you still need to be alive to spend it. It is easy to shorten your life to follow such a master. If he had not been fooling around outside and not forgotten to secretly understand the people's sentiments and report the actions of officials from all over the country, Luan Xin would have sent people to arrest him.

result--

The person is right in front of you when you open your eyes?

Luan Xin's body moved quickly for once, and he grabbed the other's wrist, fearing that the guy would run away again. Just as he was about to speak, Luan Xin realized something and loosened his grip, confusing the other person. However, he did not forget the purpose of his visit.

"I heard some bad news this morning."

Luan Xin has already remembered what happened.

"Madam Ru has..." Madam Miao refers to Miao Shu. Everyone knows her relationship with her master Qiu Cheng, and privately calls her "Madam Ru", which is inappropriate. Only Luan Xin calls her "Miao Lady". He knows that Luan Xin once taught Miao Shu for a short time, and the two of them barely have a teacher-student relationship, so when he learned of Miao Shu's death, he came to tell his colleagues the bad news.

Seeing that Luan Xin didn't answer, his colleague said, "Fortunately, Shen Youli didn't let anyone humiliate her. She was sent away by poisoned wine."

This exceeded the expectations of several colleagues.

They originally thought that Shen Youli would throw her into a brothel or give her as a reward to a meritorious general, but they didn't expect that she would directly give her poisoned wine without saying anything: "I heard that she was given a choice, to commit suicide with a sword, a piece of white silk or a cup of poisoned wine, but she chose the most painful one. A short pain is worse than a long one, and committing suicide will save her suffering."

Luan Xin said, "Lord... Lord Shen has female soldiers under his command."

Colleagues were puzzled and asked: "What is the connection between the two?"

"If she treats female prisoners of war like this, wouldn't others have more reason to do the same if her female soldiers were captured someday?"

You can't restrict the behavior of others, but you can restrain yourself.

The colleague looked at Luan Xin suspiciously for a long time: "Have you changed your personality? You looked down on her yesterday, why are you speaking for her today?"

Luan Xin: "...I am just discussing the matter at hand."

"Do you know about the matter of the princess' mother?"

"Which one?" Luan Xin asked subconsciously, then he remembered, "Are you talking about the incident where Miao Nujun's body was hung out to dry in the courtyard?"

When the news came out, the old officials thought that Shen Youli deliberately slandered Qiu Cheng. It was not until they saw the body in the courtyard that they realized that Qiu Cheng was really cold and indifferent, and they were a little disappointed. Some people also explained for Qiu Cheng, suspecting that Shen Youli secretly instigated the threat. Later, it was confirmed that this speculation was false. Shen Tang never hinted at this. It was purely because Qiu Cheng and his wife were timid and mean.

The colleague nodded awkwardly: "Yeah."

He felt a little embarrassed.

No matter what, one night of marriage means a hundred nights of love, Miao Shu was very conscientious towards Qiu Cheng, and she did not let him down, but she died without even the treatment of being buried in peace. Let's not talk about Shen Youli's attitude. Even if she really had an opinion about this, Qiu Cheng, a grown man, stepped forward to bury the body of his concubine. Could Shen send people to stop the funeral procession?

There were no symbolic arrangements.

Just let people lie under the patio.

Before the colleague went to look for Luan Xin, he took a look at him from a distance.

Luan Xin took a deep breath and said, "I'll go take a look." His colleagues held him down and said, "What are you doing? You look so sick, and you've been unconscious for four or five days. You can't even get medicine into your mouth. Now that you've finally woken up, why are you still running around? Aren't you going to keep your leg?"

Luan Xin couldn't struggle: "I know my limits."

He had been ill for a long time after the war, and was bedridden. When he was able to walk a little, the matter was almost settled. Miao Shu's body was collected by a military commander who had received her favor, and buried outside the city of Xiaocheng. Luan Xin sent people to repair the tomb every year. The people of Xiaocheng didn't know who was buried there. In addition, Xiaocheng was engaged in tourism business, so they collected folk rumors and added some artistic processing to create a tourist attraction in the style of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, which made Luan Xin speechless.

It’s hard to explain.

The Miao family has a very bad reputation in Longwu County.

At least in Xiaocheng, you can still enjoy some grains offered by tourists.

Luan Xin could only hint to Xiaocheng not to go too far. If Miao Shu knew that she was being married off, she wouldn't be afraid of being killed in the middle of the night. In the end, Xiaocheng stitched together many stories from the market and created a version of a female knight who was both good and evil and her pursuer. There can be fewer romantic stories, but they cannot be absent.

【Ordinary people like this. 】

I woke up at this time in my dream today. As a teacher, Luan Xin couldn't continue to lie in bed to recuperate. He sent away his colleagues who were visiting him and limped over. However, his body was not good enough and it took him a long time to get there. Qiu Cheng also rushed out after hearing the news.

“Justice!”

Hearing this name, Luan Xin was in a trance for a long time.

He didn't see Qiu Cheng for the last time in real life.

"Greetings, Lord Wen Yan..." As soon as he uttered the title, he realized that he had called him the wrong name. He should have called him Lord at this time. It was too late to change his words. Qiu Cheng was always a person who liked to think too much. When he heard the name changed after not seeing him for a few days, he felt sad. When he saw the corpse lying quietly in the courtyard, with corpse spots and a stench, he stopped talking.

I feel a little guilty.

He also knew that his behavior was cowardly and cold-hearted.

There was an awkward atmosphere in the air. Luan Xin said weakly, "I heard that the lady's body was exposed here. I thought that I couldn't do anything for her when she was alive, so at least let her die with dignity. After all, she was poisoned by a cup of poisoned wine, and her remains were horrible. I think she wouldn't want to be seen by others. It's better to bury her as soon as possible..."

Qiu Cheng felt a little embarrassed.

I wanted to blame Luan Xin for meddling in other people's business, I wanted to tell Luan Xin that Miao Shu was poisoned to death because of Shen Tang's threats, I wanted to say that I wasn't that heartless... Thousands of words were stuck in my throat, and I couldn't say any words of defense: "That's what I meant."

Luan Xin's expression softened.

At this time, he was still an undecided captive, with a limited range of activities and no money around him. He could only borrow some money from other colleagues who were still well-off, buy a thick coffin, and put Miao Shu in it. The next day, the general who buried Miao Shu in reality came privately, saying that he was grateful for Miao Shu's life-saving grace and wanted to do what he could for her and take care of her afterlife. Luan Xin said: "We have to leave the city this time, but the general..."

The general hung his head.

"Hey, I'm not afraid of being laughed at by you, sir. I have lost my whole family and I am now alone. Who would come to redeem me? I don't want to work like a slave for Shen. Fortunately, I have a lot of strength. At worst, I can do hard labor to earn money to redeem myself."

Luan Xin thought of the martial arts school he later opened and the bunch of children he adopted, and said, "In that case, I'll trouble you with this matter."

He calculated the time with his fingers and found that Wen Yangong was about to commit suicide.

In reality, the former lord had committed suicide, but in the dream, he was still alive. Even if saving him was meaningless, it would be good to make himself feel better. Luan Xin didn't know when this dream would end. Before waking up, it would be good to see more of the people in the past. Luan Xin didn't go directly to Qiu Cheng. Based on his understanding of Qiu Cheng, the crux of the matter was in the first house.

In other words, it was the redemption money sent by the eldest wife, Qiu.

He was used to having healthy legs, but now he had to walk with a broken leg. He was not used to it. He followed his memory to find his master, but the guards on the road did not see him at all. Luan Xin thought it was a dream, and did not doubt it. Soon he went to the window, and through the window leak he could see many boxes of different sizes in the house, filled with dazzling gold, silver and jewelry.

"so much?"

I couldn't help laughing when I thought about all these going into Xun Zhen's pocket.

Over the years, the master has made a fortune, but as long as Xun Zhen is alive, her debts will accumulate, day after day, with no end in sight. Only the master can tolerate Xun Zhen, if it were any other lord, he would have kicked her away long ago.

Who made Xun Zhen more terrifying than Taotie?

Inside the house, Shen Tang scratched his ears and said, "You said this was sent by the Qiu family? To redeem the lecherous old rookie's family? Didn't he say that he offended the clan leader to death? This Qiu Dalang is really generous."

When Luan Xin heard this, he felt something was wrong.

"My lord, why do you think this ransom money is life-saving money? Rather than a death claim?" Gu Chi's voice still made Luan Xin dislike it. "The sword that kills without bloodshed is the one that pierces the heart. Qiu Dalang put aside the past grudges and gave away money to save people. As Qiu Cheng, who once fought against his brothers and murdered them, can he accept this request for help?"

Luan Xin curled his lips.

It turned out that this flatterer was whispering in the Lord's ear.

He was mentally prepared and still wanted to kick Gu Chi in the face.

"If I were the old rookie, I would probably accept it with shame. At worst, I would go back and bow down to Qiu Dalang, and then keep my tail between my legs and become a rich man in the future, at least I would not have to worry about food and clothing. However, given the old rookie's temper, it's hard to say. He would probably be panicked and angry. He would be worried that Qiu Dalang had other intentions in doing this, and he would be angry that the situations of the two brothers were reversed, and he would have to rely on Qiu Dalang's charity to survive..."

"Yes, people tend to judge others by themselves." Gu Chi raised his thin lips and said sarcastically, "Because of who you are, everyone looks like the same person. Qiu Cheng is a hypocritical gentleman, so how can his brother be an honest gentleman in his eyes? My lord, are you interested in making a bet with Chi? Let's bet on what will happen to Qiu Cheng if the news of the ransom falls into his ears?"

"What's the benefit of winning the bet?"

"It's up to you, my lord."

"Okay, you said so!"

The two agreed to write on their palms and show them at the same time.

Seeing the result, Shen Tang sighed in disappointment.

"Alas, the bet is off."

Because they all wrote the word "death".

Outside the window, Luan Xin's pale and weak face suddenly became silent. He could hear a buzzing sound in his ears. He felt dizzy for a moment. His most fearful suspicion was confirmed with his own eyes! His lips trembled as he murmured, "It's fake, it's all fake..."

Luan Gongyi, this is just your dream.

Dreams are not equal to reality.

Luan Xin staggered backwards, but forgot that one of his legs was disabled and he couldn't use any strength at all. His previously precarious balance was instantly broken and he almost fell to the ground in a mess. He rolled to the corridor and was covered in mud.

The sharp stones scratched his palm.

I have been browsing Xiaohongshu these past two days. If you don’t know, you might think I have climbed over the wall again. The screen is full of English, which makes my eyes hurt... English is something that I will leave to the teacher after the college entrance examination...
