Hibiscus Flower West Moon Splendid

Chapter 164
Strange, obviously before he said that he had no contact with Han Xiuzhu recently, but he knew the whole story of my injury clearly.

His words and eyes are flickering, is he implying me something?How could Lan Sheng be rescued by such a dark man hidden by the Yuan family so easily?
During summer time, thunderstorms often sneaked into the world, and I was full of doubts. Xiaozhong started to yell at us, and then ran back to the house to watch us.Sure enough, after a while, the sky above the head suddenly roared, and it began to rain heavily.

Old man Lin sent Lan Sheng and me back to the bamboo house, staring at me blankly in the heavy rain, unable to tell whether it was tears or rain on the old man's face.

I softly called out: "Don't think too much, old man, just rest early."

He shook his lips for a while, and finally nodded vigorously, "Madam, you and your mother, Ishtar, are really similar."

With a lump in my throat, I said goodnight with tears in my eyes.

Lan Sheng was young, and he fell asleep in no time. The thunderous snoring even surpassed the rumbling thunder in the sky, making me unable to sleep.After I tossed and turned on the bed for a while, I dreamed of my mother in a daze. I haven't dreamed of my mother for a long time.I'm still the same as when I was a child, but my face is as miserable as it is now.

Mother is always the God in the eyes of children. I threw myself into my mother's arms full of grievances. Her arms were still so fragrant and warm. She didn't speak, but she shed tears at me and hugged me tightly.I wanted to see what she looked like, but the surroundings suddenly became dark, and the warm embrace disappeared, and then I was horrified to find that I was entangled by a bunch of cold and terrifying passionflowers, and it was difficult to breathe.

"Ma'am, wake up."

I opened my eyes, Lan Sheng's bald head was above me, covered with sweat, his hands shook my shoulders vigorously, almost strangled me.

I got up all of a sudden, the sky was bright, the birds were singing outside the bamboo house, and the summer cicadas were buzzing.

"Ma'am is not well, that old man Lin is gone." Lan Sheng said anxiously, "The wine we drank must have been drugged last night, I slept until the sun was high before getting up."

He helped me get up, and then crawled to Old Man Lin's bedroom.

The sunlight shone into the simple bamboo house, and a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine came to the nostrils. A complete and clean human skeleton lay on an operating table in the middle, and the skeleton was covered with steel nails.Next to it is a small urn with a label saying "Mihuajin".

A piece of paper was nailed to the forehead of the skeleton, which read: The green hills will not change, the green water will flow forever, the distant mountains will be tall, and there will be a period later.

Well, it's concise and easy to understand, but I don't know where it ends!

Lan Sheng only looked at the human skeleton tremblingly, and said in a trembling voice, "Wh-what kind of human skeleton is this?"

I looked around, and saw a bald-headed puppet on the other side of his skeleton. The puppet was leaning against a pot of orchids. It was made like a real person, just like a little child resting under a big orchid tree. Steel nails were inserted all over the body according to acupuncture points.

I remembered old man Lin talking about Zhao Menglin's story last night.That old man Lin must have been concerned about Zhao Menglin's research and development of the Living Dead for the past two years, and he may have been secretly studying it.I always feel like he wants to tell me something, but why not just say it?what does he mean?
It suddenly occurred to me that he repeatedly mentioned that I look like my mother.But Lan Sheng told me that when I was sent, I was obviously disfigured. Could it be that he had seen me before?
He deliberately always looked at Lan Sheng when he talked to me, his eyes flickering. Could it be that he was implying that there was a story behind Lan Sheng?
I glanced at Lan Sheng.Lan Sheng just leaned forward and stared at the little puppet, and then accidentally got his nose stuck by a steel nail on the puppet, so he covered his nose and hummed, looking like a pure and lovely boy.

I secretly sighed, since old man Lin left overnight, this is definitely not a place to stay for a long time.I asked Lan Sheng to look around for valuables, but Lan Sheng searched here and there and only found some silver surgical instruments. Without asking me, he grinned grinningly and used his internal force to turn it into a big silver ball before using it. Cut it into several pieces of silver with a hand knife, and presented it to me like a treasure.I took a deep breath, collected the silver and honey flower, and went outside together.

I looked up at the sky at the bottom of the valley, and as the sky was spinning, Lan Sheng had found a thick vine familiarly, claiming that the old man Lin taught him to leave the valley in the same way last time.So he tied me behind his back, I held Xiaozhong in my arms, and we went up together.

Lan Sheng used both hands and feet, and his skills were vigorous. He laughed loudly in front of me: "Madam, hold on to the villain and Xiaozhong. One day in the mountains is a thousand years in the world. We are about to enter the world."

I felt a sigh of relief in my chest, he jumped up at an extremely fast speed.

Xiaozhong sticks out his tongue, his eyes lie on my shoulder calmly, he keeps looking up and down, but he has no fear.

We climbed for a long time, passing through a period of mist like twilight, but we still haven't seen the top, which shows how high the mountain is.I was worried that Lan Sheng was exhausted, so I wiped the sweat from Lan Sheng's forehead from time to time.

Lan Sheng's complexion was pale, and his breathing was a little short.

After a while, Xiaozhong called out loudly.The plants on the mountain wall became more and more sparse, and the rock wall became smoother. It can be seen that we are approaching the top of the cliff. Lan Sheng and I cheered up.

After a while, there were shouts of killing coming from above our heads, and Lan Sheng and I were shocked there.

Suddenly, the thick ivy in Lan Sheng's hand snapped off, and we fell straight down. At that time, Lan Sheng seemed to have forgotten to do light work in his fright. He also grasped a green vine in time, scaring Xiao Zhong into whimpering.While we were swaying in the air, several bloody people screamed and fell down above our heads.Lan Sheng tried his best to stand on a protruding stone wall. We waited for a long time until the sound of killing above our heads subsided, and then we slowly climbed up.

Finally we struggled to poke our heads out, I put Xiao Zhong on the ground, Xiao Zhong happily ran forward a few steps, and then ran back immediately.

I pulled Lan Sheng up, and then we both stood there in a daze.

The setting sun was like blood, reflecting the Shura field in front of him.Looking around, there were soldiers' corpses all over the ground.

Broken arms and stumps, bones piled up into mountains, gunpowder smoke filled the air, and blood flowed into rivers.

The air was filled with the smell of death and blood, and Lan Sheng and I stood up in a daze.I really didn't expect that as soon as we entered the WTO, we entered a battlefield that had just ended a war. The fallen people we saw just now at the bottom of the cliff must be soldiers fighting.

A few war horses were looking for their lost master in the battlefield in panic. A broken flag was flying up and down in the center of the battlefield. , with an ax in both hands, blood-stained long hair, flying against the wind.

The man suddenly turned around to look at us, his face was covered in blood and his face could not be seen clearly, only his red pupils were full of murderous intent.

He yelled at me and rushed over.Xiao Zhong yelled angrily a few times, then hid behind me in a useless manner.

His movement was extremely fast, his fierce eyes were full of blood, and he came to me in a blink of an eye.

I touched the reward in my bosom, and was about to pull it out, when Lan Sheng had already stepped in front of me, holding a dead branch we caught on the cliff, one end was sharpened, pointing directly at the soldier's throat, Staring at the soldier with eyes as clear as ice, Jun smiled and said, "Hero, we are just passing by. Have you killed your red eyes?"

The soldier's bloody ax stopped in the air. He looked at us for a while, and seemed to comprehend Lan Sheng's words. He took a big step back and sat down.

I came out from behind Lan Sheng, and saw that the armor on his body was dilapidated, but it could still be seen that it belonged to the original family.

I opened my mouth and asked, "Which one is the court facing in this battle? Did you win?"

The man's eyes focused, as if he didn't expect that I would ask this question, he gave me a cold look, but looked away, and ignored me.

After thinking about it, I took out the gourd on my body and handed it over.He thought for a while, took it, took a drink from the sea, fell to the ground, whistled, and a tall war horse ran far away from the other side of the battlefield, and ran to his side with a proud long hiss.

He quickly got on his horse, and suddenly said: "Tie Dou lost."

I realized he was answering my words.

"It's true," he said coldly again, "Pan Maozi used [-] horses to drag down the original family's [-] people, so how can there be any success?"

Pan Maozi is Xiting's derogatory name for Dou Zhou's No.1 general Pan Zhengyue.It is said that this person has a vicious appearance, hair like needles, and heavy hair like a ghost. People at that time called him Pan Maozi. Skilled, in recent years, he has repeatedly made military exploits for Dou Zhou, and is relied on by Dou Yinghua.

I didn't know at the time that this was the famous Battle of Liangzhou. In this battle, Pan Zhengyue used [-] troops to block the [-] elite soldiers stationed in Xingzhou from his original family. He was also the nearest reinforcement to Liangzhou, thus gaining time. Invaded Liangzhou.

As for the only survivor in the Xingzhou garrison, his words were full of desolation and grief. I was about to ask how far the nearest Yuan family army was from here, but he left like the wind.

"Xingzhou garrison, ninth-rank Dengshi Zuolang officer, Lu Lun, a person from Dengzhou on the ninth day of March in the third year of Yuanwu." Lan Sheng looked at his back as he went away, and murmured with his hands behind his back.

I was surprised, "How do you know his last name?"

Lan Sheng smiled awkwardly for a while, and stretched out his hand behind his back, but in his palm was a customs clearance certificate, "This rude fool dropped this when he left just now."

When he saw me staring at him, he put away his smile and added: "Since the two armies are fighting, Xingzhou City and nearby Zhoucheng will probably be closed, so we can enter the city with this."
