man sanctified in death row vest

Chapter 314 Diary (5300 words)
Sunrise East.

A thin layer of mist, like smoke and veil, floated above the canal in a willingness to refuse and welcome.With a gust of cool morning wind blowing, the mist rolled reluctantly towards the river bank.The lingering mist made the literati and poets who watched the sun from a distance feel very poetic, and sighed "is the departure of the fog the wind's pursuit or the river's unwillingness to retain it?"

A swallow returning home from the south flapped its forked tail flexibly, bringing with it a few strands of southern dampness and spring, and landed in a house that has accumulated a lot of time.

Zheng Xiu pushed open the window to welcome the sunshine.

"Shh! Shh!"

Seeing the swallows under the eaves, Zheng Xiu habitually whistled a few times.

The whistle used to have a hidden meaning: Come here!

The swallow seemed to understand, the bird tilted its head, flapped its wings and stood on the edge of the window, with two eyeballs rolling around, boldly looking at Zheng Xiu.

Spring in the north is always long overdue.

Zheng Xiu teased the swallows, greedily inhaled the dry morning air, basked in the morning sun, and felt calm.

Swallows jump up and down on the windowsill, not afraid of people.

Zheng Xiu silently stretched out his index finger and moved closer.

Yanzi shrank her neck, but she didn't seem to sense Zheng Xiu's malice, so she dared to peck Zheng Xiu.

Playing with birds in the early morning is very happy.

"So, why did you come back to the north when you flew to the warmer south? North... North?"

Zheng Xiu said something casually, but suddenly something moved, making his chest tighten, frowning, staring at the swallow, lost in thought.

After a while, Zheng Xiu didn't want to understand, so he quietly picked up a thread-bound book from the window sill, and tore off a page.

He bit his index finger, and a drop of blood oozed out. Zheng Xiu drew a simple birdcage with two or three strokes on the white paper with his finger.

"Ah!"

The birdcage appeared out of nowhere with a swish, covering the bewildered swallow.

"I've wronged you, stay for a while, and let me go home when I figure it out."

Zheng Xiu put up an index finger beside his mouth, signaling Yanzi not to panic.

The swallow seemed to understand again.

"Uh...seems like my 'foreign language' has a little effect on ordinary species?"

This surprised Zheng Xiu a little.

Unexpectedly, this inadvertently unlocked the ability to communicate with small animals.

What a surprise.

Zheng Xiu put the birdcage aside, looked back and smiled at Yiren lying on her side on the bed.

Sitting at the table, Zheng Xiu silently opened a brand new thread-bound book.

He turned to the title page first.

It was written all over in strong handwriting—his own handwriting.

This is a serious diary written by a major general.

[The second year of Tianjing, March [-]th, heavy fog. 】

[Come to 'here' for the fifth day. 】

[Mother is alive, but naughty; father is sick, but he is still alive; when he wakes up, he is happy to be a groom. 】

[My wife is Yue Linglong, an ordinary northern barbarian woman with a warm body. 】

[Man, if you lose your money, you can earn it again. 】

【I'm not interested in money. 】

[Besides, with a hereditary title, what money can't be earned back? 】

[It's not a big problem. 】

……

[The second year of Tianjing, March [-]th, at night. 】

[When my father was in the ancestral hall, I was the Marquis of Zhonglie. 】

[Now, my father is the marquis of Zhonglie! 】

【(sad). 】

……

[The second year of Tianjing, March [-]th, light rain. 】

[It's a bit cold today, I woke up from the bed, scored twice with Yue Linglong, and scored twice. 】

[I don't know why, but I always like to see her with her hair tied up in a ponytail... Sad to find that I have unlocked a new hobby. 】

……

[Tianjing two years, March nineteenth, sunny. 】

[Accompanies Yue Linglong to go shopping. 】

【I told her that I don't like to eat animal offal. 】

[She asked me what I like to eat. 】

[I said: fennel lamb head stew. 】

【...Which store did I eat at? 】

……

【The second year of Tianjing, March [-]th, sunny. 】

[Continue to go shopping with my wife, passing a small stall selling paper masks, the boss is very enthusiastic and the workmanship is very good. 】

[Madam said she likes little white rabbits, but I chose a black crow mask for her. 】

[She wore a lady's bun at first, which didn't look good—until I let her hair down and tied it in a ponytail. 】

【Excellent. 】

【But. 】

【…】

【…】

[I... always feel like I bought the same model before. 】

……

[Tianjing two years, March 21, sunny. 】

[I still go shopping with my wife. 】

【She said that next month, Samba will send some souvenirs in person. 】

【Samba... that old man, just in time to take stock of the information. 】

[Ask my father-in-law if he is in good health now. 】

[I hope to be stabbed tomorrow. 】

……

[The second year of Tianjing, March 22, did not use a knife. 】

【good!It's raining! 】

[Take the opportunity to go to the six gates, and shout 'Father Zheng Haoran' at the entrance! 】

[It turns out that calling 'my father so-and-so' feels really cool. 】

[It means that it took three taels of silver to manage it. 】

[It feels like it’s been a long time since I spent so much money. 】

[Finally heard about Qing Shisan, Ji Hongou, and Pei Gaoya. 】

[Those three guys committed numerous murders 20 years ago, and Pei Gaoya and Ji Hongou are still wanted. 】

[Sikong Zhuiming, now in the prison, was supposed to be executed last autumn, but never expected that the emperor would die, the Minister of Criminal Affairs would step down, and there would be a backlog of serious cases in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, so he forgot about the Qing batch. 】

[I have to find a way to save him. 】

[However, it is very likely that he does not know me. 】

[I have a headache now. 】

……

[The second year of Tianjing, March 23, light rain. 】

[Mother said that after returning from the battlefield 23 years ago, Dad was seriously injured, and finally recovered, but his health continued to deteriorate. 】

[Maybe it's because I got married to Linglong, and my father's health has recovered. 】

[Our family of four had a meal. 】

[This kind of scene seems to me to be something that can only happen in the next life. 】

【Father drank a few glasses at the dinner table and got drunk. Mother helped him back to the house. He seemed to be saying that he wanted to compete with the Wolf King again. 】

【... I remember that 20 years ago, Dad used to talk about drinking according to the 'altar'. 】

[Hope dad can recover soon. 】

[Also, I have to find Situ Yong, the living dead, and hope he's okay. 】

……

[Tianjing two years, March 26, heavy rain. 】

[Huo Huo came to visit today to visit my father. 】

[He is now the general of Zhen Guobei. 】

【Later, my mother told me that the position of the general of Zhen Guobei was originally owned by my father, but my father was unwell, so he recommended Huo Huo, and Huo Huo was appointed. 】

[General Huo's personality is not bad, there are people in the court who are good at handling things, no wonder the old man is sick, he still receives a high court salary, and no one dares to come to the door to slap him in the face. 】

[Hiss...after I become a famous general protecting the country, I'm still the kind who can just sit back and wait to die. 】

【While they were having fun drinking, I asked General Huo for a warrant. 】

[Can freely enter and exit the prison. 】

[I have to take a look at Qing Shisan. 】

[By the way, look up 'Prisoner'. 】

……

[The second year of Tianjing, March 27, overcast. 】

[Wangtian Prison where I lived before was not built. 】

[Ordinary sky prisons always seem almost meaningless. 】

[The management of the sky prison is very chaotic, and it seems to be full of loopholes. 】

[I feel like I want to rob someone easily. 】

[The jailer said that he would wait for the approval from above. 】

[Hateful bureaucracy. 】

【I miss the first day when Ba Lao Liu was a prison guard. 】

……

[Tianlao visit is still waiting for approval. 】

[It was obviously easy to stuff money in the past. 】

[You can also water flowers and take a bath in the prison. 】

[Without money, it is absolutely impossible. 】

[I can't bear it anymore. 】

[For dad's sake. 】

[I can't destroy the current peaceful life of the Zheng family. 】

[I miss the seventh day when Ba Lao Liu was a jailer. 】

……

[I discovered something today. 】

[Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice is actually Shi Wentong? 】

[The one who died in the horse wind. 】

[Outrageous, this can live, right! 】

【Ha ha……】

……

[The guards of the sky prison are useless. 】

[Sneak in easily. 】

【who is it……】

[Broken Qingpi's leg! ! ! ! ! 】

[He didn't even look at me. 】

【He thought I was his enemy. 】

[He looks like he is dead. 】

【…】

【…】

[It shouldn't be like this. 】

【I,】

[I'm sorry for him. 】

……

[The second year of Tianjing, the first day of April, overcast. 】

[There is no thaumaturgy here, and apart from me and my father, I have not seen other strange people. 】

[There is no Ye Weiyang, no candles. 】

[Zhu Mingming is a character from 1000 years ago. What I changed was the ancient battlefield 20 years ago, so it is impossible to affect him. 】

[Something must have happened. 】

【strangeness! 】

【strangeness! 】

【strangeness! 】

【The 'prisoner' Bund is still there, but my prisoner panel is full of 'garbled characters'! 】

[All turned into incomprehensible text! 】

[There is a bug! 】

【'Something is wrong here! 】

[This is wrong! 】

……

[In the second year of Tianjing, on the third day of April, it was rainy. 】

[The weather is bad. 】

【Father is getting better and better. 】

[The smile on the mother's face also increased. 】

[She cooked a delicious meal. 】

[Fried river fish. 】

[I said a very strange thing at the time:]

[The 'Fried Fish Cake' is still delicious. 】

【Mother looked at me with a very strange look. 】

[She said she had never made this dish. 】

【...Who can make fried fish cakes? 】

……

[The second year of Tianjing, the seventh day of April, rain. 】

[The weather has not been good recently. 】

【The old man can already walk around. 】

【He is practicing boxing in the yard again. 】

[He will regain the 'rules'. 】

[The doctor who came for the follow-up visit said something, which translates to: a medical miracle. 】

[It can only be said that he deserves to be a stranger. 】

……

[Tianjing two years, April [-], sunny. 】

[There is a gap in my memory! 】

[Some... strange vacancies. 】

【In retrospect, I seem to be married to the monk's sister in the painting. 】

【He told me to treat his sister well. 】

[I try to draw something. 】

[I can't draw it. 】

……

[Tianjing two years, April fourteenth, sunny. 】

[Yue Linglong praised me for my beautiful painting, and asked me to draw a picture for her. 】

[She tied up my favorite hairstyle today and sat there. 】

[I only drew half of this painting. 】

[The face is blank. 】

【…】

【…】

[I seem to have forgotten one, very important thing. 】

[She looks a little unhappy. 】

[It should be that the matter of the approval of Qing has affected my mood. 】

[I have to find a way to rescue Qing Biao. 】

【...According to the Dagan Law, how many years does one have to be sentenced for robbing a death row prisoner? 】

……

"Husband."

Not far away, there was a moaning sound coming from behind. It turned out that Yue Linglong habitually threw herself to the side in the morning, and woke up with a start.

The slipping quilt couldn't hide the shyness of the young woman. They had been married for a month, and they could barely be regarded as old couples. Luo Shan: "I got up late!"

Tossing all night last night did plow the field badly.

She got out of bed with bare toes, and looked at Zheng Xiu pitifully: "This concubine will help your husband change clothes."

"it is good."

Zheng Xiu nodded with a smile and closed the diary.

"Husband, are you writing...a diary again?"

Yue Linglong looked away, feeling itchy like a kitten scratching her heart.

"Want to see it?"

Zheng Xiu stood up and shook the diary in front of Yue Linglong.

"You Yueya'er are such a woman who doesn't know what's good or bad."

Yue Linglong is very sensible, very sensible.She listened to Zheng Xiu no matter what was going on in her boudoir.After getting along for a month, Zheng Xiu completely wiped away the little prejudice he had towards the northern barbarian women at first.

Zheng Xiu recalled the "before" abuse and rage towards Yue Linglong, and looking at such a gentle and virtuous lady now, he couldn't help but feel guilty and felt that he owed her, so he deliberately teased her with jokes: "It's useless to look at it." , How can a decent person write their thoughts in a diary."

Yue Linglong was startled for a moment, but then she was really amused, obviously realizing the point of the joke.She smiled and shook her head, and gently helped Zheng Xiu put on his clothes, tied his belt, adjusted the skirts, and tightened the crown jade.

In a corner of the room stood a piece of armor—this was a tailor-made armor for the major general. Not long after Yue Linglong entered the school a few days ago, she specially maintained it with oil.

Looking at the gentleman-like husband in a long white gown, Yue Linglong glanced at the armor, and said casually: "It's a pity that I didn't see the heroic appearance of my husband in armor."

"It's a good thing," Zheng Xiu scratched Yue Linglong's straight nose bridge with his fingers, and said with a smile, "It means that fighting will stop and the world will be peaceful."

After rubbing hands with his wife for a while, Zheng Xiu walked out of the room, looked back, and saw Yue Linglong preparing to dress up in front of the bronze mirror.She was holding her long hair in her hands, and was about to tie it with a ribbon.

Zheng Xiu bowed his head slightly, and said calmly: "You are now a married woman, according to the customs of Dagan, you should wear a bun."

"Huh? Husband, you...don't like it?"

Yue Linglong asked cautiously.As the saying goes: women are the ones who please themselves.She is like this because Zheng Xiu likes it.She is now married to Zheng Xiu, and her father told her before leaving the house. The big-time men are well-informed, and there are many temptations in the outside world, and they always like new ones. Let Yue Linglong change a little bit more. Life is a long road. To make Zheng Xiu feel bored.

"No...forget it, I like it."

Zheng Xiu originally wanted to say "I don't like it", but when the words came to his mouth, he was inexplicably bored. He tried his best to squeeze out a smile that would not let Yue Linglong misunderstand, then turned and left in a hurry: "I went to the hospital today, and an old friend was injured. , don’t worry about it.”

After half an hour.

Zheng Xiu walked to the "Baliufu Medical Center" on foot.

Zheng Xiu didn't know until not long ago that Ba Liufu's original name was "Ba Liufu".

...His parents gave him a good name, luck.

The Baliufu Medical Center is located in a remote location, and the people are deserted, so the business is obviously not very good. The bustling place "Once upon a time" is because it "used" to be the study of great writers—and after the world line has shifted, Ba Liufu's aggressive style is obviously not comparable to that of great writers.

So Zheng Xiu easily used ten taels of silver to cover Liufu Medical Center for a month, and blocked Ba Liufu's mouth.

A person's experience can be changed, and a person's identity can be changed, but the nature should not be changed.

Zheng Xiu, who is somewhat familiar with Ba Lao Liu, knows him well: Ba Lao Liu has no hobbies, one is gambling, and the other is money.Where there is money, there is principle.

Just give him the money... hehe.

The wooden door of the dilapidated small courtyard of the Baliufu Medical Center was locked, and a sign was hung on it: Go out for a long-distance medical treatment.

When Zheng Xiu knocked on the door, there were three ups and downs.

Ba Lao Liu's voice came from inside: "A plate of pork head meat?"

"Two or two old white dry."

"Right!"

The sneaky and thief-like Scar Six opened the door a crack and let Zheng Xiu in.

After walking a few steps, an unpleasant herbal smell wafted over.

Zheng Xiu looked up and saw black smoke rising from the chimney of the woodshed.

"Are you decocting medicine here?"

Zheng Xiu stared, and asked Scar Six.

Scar Lao Liu was beaten up by Zheng Xiu for a while last time, and the bruise on his left eye has not completely dissipated.When Zheng Xiu got angry, he covered his right eye in fright, and said guiltily, "Otherwise?"

Zheng Xiu put down his fist expressionlessly, thought for a while, and sighed softly: "I can only hope that it won't attract the attention of interested people, but you should change the brand immediately, don't write 'going out for a long-term visit', just write 'closed due to serious illness'." '."

Ba Liufu was stunned: "Won't this ruin the signboard of my Ba Liufu?"

"It's okay, everyone knows that doctors can't heal themselves."

Scar Lao Liu wanted to say something else, but Zheng Xiu took out a piece of broken silver and threw it over.

Scar sixth immediately shut up.

Zheng Xiu pushed the door open and entered, the smell of herbs inside was stronger, mixed with a stench.

In the inner room, on a bamboo mat lay a man in ragged clothes with loose long hair.

The man's knees were bloody, and there were many blood-stained gauzes next to them, and pieces of rotten pus were scraped off from the gauze.

It's Qing Thirteen.

Zheng Xiu took a deep breath and sat down in front of Qing Shisan without changing his face.

Scar Lao Liu took the money and listened to persuasion.He hurriedly changed the small sign at the door, and soon came in with a bowl of black plaster.

Zheng Xiu stretched out his hand to test it, and Qing Shisan's skin was so hot.

"The wound is infected!" Zheng Xiu's eyes were sharp, his teeth were clenched, looking at Qing Shisan's broken knees, he thought to himself, "Ordinary methods can't save him! I have to find someone who is a 'healer'!"

"But now, where do I go to find a doctor! Scar Lao Liu said that there is no doctor named 'Situ Yong' in the city!"

Scar Lao Liu took a look at Zheng Xiu, he actually knew that the identity of the man lying in his hospital was not simple.When Zheng Xiu brought him here, this guy was still wearing a prison uniform.

"Gudong."

Ba Lao Liu touched his left eye, with a sad face, secretly thinking why he was so unlucky, but Zheng Haoran's son was entangled.What's more unlucky is that Zheng Haoran's son didn't know what to do, so he pretended to be the second generation, and insisted on violating the Daqian law.You are amazing and you are noble, you are the son-in-law of the Northern Barbarian Wolf King, and your father is a famous general who protects the country. If you dare to know the law and break the law, don't make trouble for the common people!

Ba Laoliu was crying in his heart, but he didn't dare to move rashly on his face, he honestly changed Qing Shisan's medicine.

At this moment, Qing Shisan opened his eyes due to the pain.

Zheng Xiu looked into Qing Shisan's eyes, he didn't know what happened to Qing Shisan to make the always cynical knife catcher in his memory become so decadent.Zheng Xiu felt that it was impossible for a simple prisoner to overwhelm the Qing Shisan he knew.

There was no light in his eyes, if he was not still breathing and his heart was still beating, no matter who looked at it at a glance, he would think it was a corpse.

wait, unless...

Zheng Xiu suddenly asked, "Where's Ji Hongou?"

Qing Shisan's stagnant eyes finally flashed a wave like a living person.

But only for a moment.

After a while.

"died."

A hoarse voice came out indifferently from Qing Shisan's mouth.
