The Pearl of the Lady

Chapter 150 Confessing the mixed blood lie
"Brother, what's your name?"

"where are you come from?"

"Where are you going?"

The child I picked up on the road was like a hundred thousand reasons, chasing people to chat, no one talked to him, and I was still chatting happily with myself, the soldiers did not let go of their guard against him, and someone was always staring at him.

When Gu Zixuan was in good spirits and had nothing to do, he would just talk to him.

"My surname is Mu and my name is Xin."

"I'm from Jiu'an."

"We're going back to Da Zhou."

The child is really familiar with this area. When he mentioned the Heilan River, Gu Zixuan's heart moved. Since he knew that this is the Heilan River, he should naturally know that this is not the way back to Dazhou. This child He didn't ask anything, just walked along with a smile on his face.

It was dark early, and the terrain on the barren grass beach was complicated, and wild animals often appeared.Generally, people here, even the most experienced herdsmen, dare not leave as soon as it gets dark. They want to start a fire at the original place and wait for the dawn before moving forward. Gu Zixuan and the others hurried on their way. When it's half dark, you have to grit your teeth and walk for a while, and wait until it's dark and you can't see the road before resting in place.

"Participant." The night watchman greeted Gu Zixuan when he saw Gu Zixuan coming out.

Gu Zixuan waved his hand, "Go in, I'll watch the rest of the night."

"How can this be done?" The soldier had a sense of responsibility and quickly shook his head.

"Go, I won't be able to sleep anyway." Gu Zixuan persuaded again and again, "Just treat it as the two of us switching, and you will keep mine tomorrow."

The soldier had no choice but to nod, and went to sleep next to the other soldiers.

Not to mention anything else, let’s just talk about sleeping, and you can see the hardships this time. The soldiers didn’t have tents, and it was cold in the middle of the night, so they could only rely on the grass laid under their bodies to keep out the cold. In the windy place, I still sleep next to the horse. The horse can not only block the wind, but also warm the body, but the smell may be a bit unpleasant, but no one cares about it.

Gu Zixuan watched the soldier curled up and fell asleep, sighed inwardly, added a few dry branches to the fire, and poked the fire with longer branches to make it burn more vigorously.

"Brother Wood".The child called Gu Zixuan, and sat next to him with his knees hugged.

Gu Zixuan was a little surprised, "Why didn't you sleep?"

"I can't sleep." The child curled up and buried his face in his arms.

"Is it too cold?" Gu Zixuan took off his cloak and tied it around his body.

"Go to sleep for a while, you have to hurry tomorrow."

The child does not speak.

Gu Zixuan didn't force him either, just thinking about things quietly.

What happened this time was too sudden. From the bottom of his heart, he did not hope that there were spies and traitors. However, all signs showed that someone was cooperating with the Liz people. It was better than that they might have been bribed, but it was impossible for him to be the main character. He himself did not This courage, then who will be above, who dare to do such a thing, must be in a high position, if not eliminated, the harm to Da Zhou will become more and more serious.

"Brother Mu..." the child called out timidly.

Gu Zixuan looked over and was about to speak when he suddenly stopped.

He looked at the child with sharp eyes, not at all like the gentle young man these two days.

"Brother Mu." The child seemed to be frightened by him, and shouted again.

Gu Zixuan gestured for him not to move.

The child froze and did not move.

Gu Zixuan rushed over fiercely, the child closed his eyes, had he been discovered, he looked like he was being slaughtered.

But he didn't wait for the knife and scolding, he opened his eyes, but saw Gu Zixuan fighting a lone wolf behind him.

The wolf must have been famished, with a swollen belly, green light in his eyes, and a smirk at the corner of his mouth. At such a short distance, the long knife was not in his hand, so Gu Zixuan could only take one out of his boot. dagger to fight the wolf.

Although Gu Zixuan is excellent in martial arts, but he was injured just before, but this wolf's eyes are shining, Gu Zixuan is dealing with this wolf, while sighing inwardly, if this is folded in the mouth of a beast, it would be a shame.

The child seemed to be frightened, and he squeezed his hands and watched from the side.

Gu Zixuan's dagger all fell off, and in the end he could only strangle the wolf's neck tightly. He could feel that his strength was gradually weakening, and he probably had a low-grade fever again.

The child gritted his teeth, rushed forward, and stabbed the back of the wolf's neck with a knife. The wolf kicked its legs and stopped moving.

Gu Zixuan exerted great effort to push away the wolf that was pressing on him. He panted for a while, slowed down, and shook his dizzy head. Regardless of the scratches on his arms and face, he comforted the child first. "It's amazing, you saved me this time."

Seeing that the child lowered his head and seemed to be very scared, he smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, this is a lone wolf, probably a stunned young man who was just kicked out of the pack. It's a good thing, we have wolf meat these two days." Eat it, this is what you hit, and you will pick it first when the time comes."

The child walked up to Gu Zixuan's side, tugged at his sleeve, motioned for him to stretch out his hand, pulled a small cloth bag and a small firework bomb from the undershirt, and put them in Gu Zixuan's palm.

Gu Zixuan pinched the small cloth bag, which was in the shape of a pill, and he looked at the child.

The child huddled together again without looking at him, buried his face, and said in a muffled voice, "I'm here to herd sheep."

He paused, Gu Zixuan didn't speak, and didn't bother him to organize his words.

"My sheep was taken away by the Liz people. I hid, and then I ran into a few people dressed in big Zhou. I was discovered. They tied me up and threw me aside. They didn't know what they discussed. My medicine bag, let me find a team of more than a dozen Dazhou soldiers, give you the medicine, and then send a signal, they will appear, send me to Dazhou, give me money, and give me money. Give me the household registration post."

The child's voice was muffled, "I'm not from Dazhou, my mother is, my father..." The child swallowed the words and didn't say anything.

Gu Zixuan understands that this child is probably a half-breed of Liz and Dazhou, because Liz often burns, kills and loots her surroundings, and the people of Dazhou hate her deeply, and they don't like these half-breeds. Aborting a child is suicide.

Moreover, the Liz people do not accept these mixed-race children. They call them "Amaira" which means bastard, slut, and they look down on children who are mixed with Da Zhou's blood. will kill.

"My mother died, and the villagers were not happy to see me. I just herded sheep here. The village chief refused to give me my household registration. He said that I am not from Dazhou. My mother said that I belong to Dazhou." The child's voice was so small that it seemed that a gust of wind would blow it away. If it weren't for Gu Zixuan's good hearing, he wouldn't be able to hear it.

No wonder this child cares so much about the household registration post, it is his sense of belonging, at least it proves that he is a child of Da Zhou.

Gu Zixuan felt a little sour in his heart, he rubbed the child's frizzy hair, "I'll get you a household registration post when I get back."

"What's your name? I'll say your real name."

The child blinked, "Zhou Xin." He was very proud of his name, "My mother chose it. My mother is the most beautiful and knowledgeable person in the village. She said my name means that she hopes that I will be happy all my life." .”

Gu Zixuan nodded, "Good name, your mother is very powerful."

He said this sincerely. In the eyes of everyone, Zhou Xin's mother still insisted on raising the child, and this child is relatively smart and kind, and he is not as gloomy and indifferent as the ordinary mixed-race children who are excluded. His mother's wisdom and hard work.

Zhou Xin is not necessarily happy when others praise himself, but Zhou Xin is very happy when others praise his mother. He grinned a little shyly, "If my mother knew that I was going to do something bad, she would beat me to death, but I think Bury my mother back in Dazhou, the villagers will not let my mother be buried in the ancestral grave, and my mother will be buried outside the city wall, and when I have money, I will move my mother's grave back."

Gu Zixuan nodded, "Wait back, I'll help you."

The child bared his teeth and smiled, "Hey, why did someone want to harm you? Are you bad people? I observed that the one who gave me the medicine was from Da Zhou. I thought you were traitors."

Gu Zixuan smiled helplessly, "I don't know who is going to poison us to death, how do you know that it belongs to the people of Da Zhou, maybe they are just wearing the clothes of the people of Da Zhou."

The child pouted, "I haven't seen anyone, Liz doesn't wear satin boots, it's too easy to break."

"And it shouldn't be poison. I caught a rabbit and fed him a little bit. The rabbit fainted after eating it."

Gu Zixuan nodded, feeling a little puzzled in his heart. He originally thought that someone wanted to silence him because he found out that the incident of Jiu'an City was caused by someone in the court colluding with Liz, and he was afraid that he would tell the story. If it's drugged, it doesn't seem like this willingness. Why?

Seeing that the child was still eagerly waiting for his answer, he rubbed the child's hair and said, "Don't look at it, I can't figure it out either, go to sleep, the child will become smarter if he goes to bed early."

Zhou Xin muttered twice that I'm not a child anymore, and went to bed obediently.

Gu Zixuan was guarding the fire, writing and drawing on the ground with branches, sorting out his thoughts.

The family, the country, and the world, the children love each other.

Ever since Ah Fu came here once, Yun Xiuyu has the motivation to survive, she doesn't refuse to take medicine, and she can sit up gradually, but she is still depressed. She is embroidering her wedding dress recently. There are some yearning smiles on the face.

"Miss, how pretty is this picture?" The servant girl was talking to her, and it was because of this topic that Yun Xiuyu was in the mood to reply.

"This is flying together, this pattern must look good when embroidered on the hijab." Yun Xiuyu said.

Her mood has gradually calmed down, sadness and sadness are unavoidable, but there is new hope in her heart, she will become Zixuan's wife, teach his children in the future, train them, let them be as good as Zixuan, Zixuan It can also be gratifying.

Is it infatuated?

There are many love infatuations in the world, and this love has nothing to do with the wind and the moon.

but……

If I say that Yun Xiuyu actually lied about this matter.
