Chapter 69: Lie

Views:

"Wait for me, Wu Du!" Duan Ling crossed the corridor and chased after Wu Du.

"Wu..." Before Duan Ling finished a sentence, Wu Du suddenly turned around and drew his sword.

Duan Ling's heartbeat stopped instantly.

He had never seen Wu Du's careful and calm expression, his eyes were as calm as water, and a sword stabbed him in the throat.

Duan Ling: "..."

There was a look of horror in his eyes, and his stomach suddenly cramped, which was purely a subconscious reaction, as if a conditioned reflex mechanism had been established a long time ago.

He wants to kill me.

No, he won't kill me!

he…

At that moment, Duan Ling flashed three thoughts one after another in his mind, and then Wu Du's sword was thrown to the side of Duan Ling's neck, wiped his hair and stabbed it, and a "ding" sounded behind his ear, Duan Ling's Breathing stopped instantly.

A sharp black cast iron hook hooked to his collar was opened by Wu Duyi's sword.

Immediately afterwards, Wu Du put his left arm around Duan Ling, and swung out another sword, but he didn't even look at where the sword was going. Duan Ling was pulled slightly by him, and he fell on his back, but Wu Du turned his head to face Duan Ling, looking at Duan Ling with indifference in his eyes, and confirmed that he was not injured.

"Boom", Duan Ling's heartbeat seemed to stop.

Wu Du wrapped his arms around his waist and made him stand up. Only then did the sword that stabbed Helan Jie's throat hit the ground. He Lan Jie suddenly stepped back, the iron hook was twisted, and Wu Du's fiery light sword instantly bent into a shape. In an arc, the two draw at the same time.

"Zheng—" The sound of swords clashing made Duan Ling's eardrums aching.

Helan Jie didn't speak again, and he grabbed him. Wu Du's two swords blocked his way. Duan Ling realized that he was almost dragged away by Helan Jie's collar before, only to see Wu Du standing by himself. In front of him, he faced Helan Jie several times with the sword, the sword was long and the hook was short, and the Lieguang sword had an overwhelming advantage, and Helan Jie was forced to retreat.

"Go away!" Wu Du said coldly.

With a vicious look in Helan Jie's eyes, he quickly retreated.

After just a few short moves, Duan Ling was covered in cold sweat, leaning against the corridor pillar, his face was pale, and he was panting.

Wu Du was still angry, he drew the sword to the scabbard at his waist, and with a long and long voice, he turned and walked towards the end of the corridor. Duan Ling closed his eyes, his stomach hurt more and more, and he couldn't even speak.

"Don't leave yet!" Wu Du said angrily at the other end of the corridor, "Wait for me to carry you back?"

Duan Ling didn't even have the strength to speak. He didn't know why he had such a sudden reaction. The moment he saw Wu Du throw his sword at him, it seemed to awaken some kind of fear deep in his memory.

"Lang Junxia, my stomach hurts..." he murmured.

Standing at the end of the corridor, Wu Du glanced at him inexplicably and realized that Duan Ling seemed to be poisoned. He rushed back quickly, pressed his pulse door, and opened his eyelids.

"No poisoning." Wu Du said, then patted Duan Ling's face and said, "Hey, what's wrong with you?"

Duan Ling looked at Wu Du with sadness in his eyes, and Wu Du said, "Hey! Stop pretending!"

"Wu Du, my stomach hurts..." Duan Ling said weakly.

Wu Du suddenly realized that Duan Ling should have been frightened by the sudden attack of his own just now. When some people are shocked, it is easy to cause convulsions in their bodies. Just as excessive tension can cause stomach pains, they hurriedly carried him up and hurried back. Go to the room, rummage through the herbs, boil a bowl of thick medicine, and give it to him to drink. Duan Ling returned to the room, the stomach pain gradually improved, the medicinal power spread to the limbs and bones, and finally recovered.

"Is it better?" Wu Du asked.

Duan Ling nodded and looked at Wu Du with sore eyes.

"I thought you were going to kill me." Duan Ling said.

"Okay, okay." Wu Du couldn't help Duan Ling, and said, "Helan Jie is right behind you, what do you want me to do?"

Duan Ling was lying on the bed on his side. Wu Du was sure that Duan Ling was all right, so he hurriedly packed his things. Duan Ling looked at Wu Du with a very complicated mood.

"I'm sorry." Duan Ling said.

Wu Du didn't speak, he quietly packed the bowl of medicine, and suddenly glanced at Duan Ling.

"Are you..." Wu Du frowned slightly, and stopped after asking for a while.

Is it what? Duan Ling's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, feeling that Wu Du seemed to know something.

The two were silent for a while, and Wu Du suddenly looked up and down Duan Ling. After Duan Ling drank the medicine, his eyelids were fighting. Before Wu Du could speak, he fell asleep. When Wu Du saw Duan Ling falling asleep, he stopped talking. After a while, he packed up and lay down on the bed beside Duan Ling.

In the afternoon, the warm sunshine came in, and he fell asleep. Duan Ling suddenly shouted "Daddy", and Wu Du was taken aback.

"Hey." Wu Du pushed Duan Ling down, but Duan Ling was still asleep. He turned around, hugged Wu Du's waist tightly, and buried himself on top of him. His strength was surprisingly strong, and Wu Du was used to it and didn't move. , lying helplessly. When he looked down at Duan Ling, he felt that it was really not easy for this young man. Originally, everything had nothing to do with him, but to accompany him, he came all the way to Tongguan. Wu Du was so tormented that all his anger disappeared.

Wu Du patted Duan Ling casually, like coaxing a child to sleep. Duan Ling seemed to feel it in his sleep, so he hugged him even tighter.

"Hemo wants to know, what is the origin of the young man in the mansion who met Yao Jing?"

The music appreciation officer drank milk tea and asked Bian Lingbai.

Bian Lingbai was really going to be tossed to death by this group of party members. He was simply the most troublesome guest that Tongguan had ever received. One moment he saw the bride who had not left the cabinet, and the next moment he went to molest the young man who had just come to defect to him. I often hear that the people of Xiliang are savage and martial, and have no shame. When I saw them today, as expected, they married Yaohou's daughter, and even a man wanted to take them away together. I don't know where the rule came from.

"That's my nephew." Bian Lingbai thought for a while and said, "The bodyguard who was beside him was not assigned by me. He was not very good-tempered.

The music appreciation officer said, "Well," Bian Lingbai said, "This child had a hard time when he was young, and he has never enjoyed any glory and wealth since he was a child. That... If Young Master He lifts him up and gets close to him, it will also be a blessing for him, but only …”

"Money?" Helianbo said one word, right on the subject.

Bian Lingbai was thinking about how to estimate the price of this kid by the way. The Marquis of Huaiyin was not short of money, and Yao Jing's betrothal gift was meaningful at that time, so it would be enough to send some to Jiang Zuo. If the other party takes a fancy to Zhao Rong, a young man with red lips and white teeth, it's totally fine! Just add a little more betrothal gifts, and since it will please the bounty of the rightful authority, it is expected that the status of this Hemo will not be low...

As he was talking, Helianbo and the music appreciation officer looked at each other, and the music appreciation officer nodded slightly, meaning to do it himself.

"Name... name?" Helianbo asked Duan Ling's half sleeve in his hand, tossing and turning, playing unconsciously, with a strip of cloth stuck in his nose to block the nosebleed from Wu Du's beating.

"It's called Bian Rong." Bian Lingbai said, "I haven't written yet."

Helianbo frowned again, as if it didn't match what Duan Lingchao said to himself, but he had already changed his surname from Duan to another surname, and there was no need to change it again.

"Money." Helianbo emphasized to the music appreciation officer.

The music appreciation officer signaled that Helianbo should stop talking, he understood. Bian Lingbai was overjoyed. Are these two party members going back to prepare money? First it was three hundred yijin, and then it was "money" and "money". For a while, Ling Bai's ears were full of jingling silver sounds.

"That... Young Master Reward." Bian Lingbai said, "Portrait?"

Helianbo waved his hand, and the music spectator also waved his hand. Bian Ling Bai knew that the party members might not have finished the drawing, so he didn't ask any more questions. Guess what Helianbo said about "money" was that Duan Ling was short of money. Waving his hand means that the three hundred yijin is no longer needed.

When evening came, someone outside whispered, "Mr. Bian?"

Wu Du carefully removed Duan Ling's claws and got out of bed to open the door. Seeing a party member standing outside, the housekeeper personally came to introduce him.

"Young Master Shang, please come over with Master Bian."

"I don't have time." Wu Du said boringly, no longer wanting to teach this group of barbarians, "Young Master Bian is sick."

The party member murmured and asked the housekeeper, and the housekeeper answered, and the party member hurriedly turned around and went back. Wu Du frowned deeply and told the housekeeper to bring dinner to his room, so he sent him away.

Back in the room, Duan Ling was already awake. In the afternoon, his vitality was severely damaged. He was stunned. He peeked to see if Wu Du was still angry, but Wu Du had the same expression as usual. , Duan Ling said again: "Hey, Wu Du."

"What?" Wu Du said.

Duan Ling wanted to find something to say, but didn't know how to start the topic. After thinking about it, he suddenly said, "I miss home."

Wu Du: "..."

Duan Ling really wanted to go back to Xichuan. Staying here, he felt uncomfortable and felt that something was wrong. Although Lang Junxia was going to kill him in Xichuan, in the prime minister's residence Wudu's house, he was always kind.

"Let's get things done as soon as possible," Wu Du replied.

Duan Ling observed Wu Du's face, but couldn't see through him, and asked, "When?"

Wu Du took the stick and said, "Let's go at night."

"Then..." Duan Ling hesitated.

Wu Du put down his long stick, and suddenly thought of one thing - take the opportunity to steal Bian Lingbai's military plane at night? But what about Duan Ling

"Should I go with you?" Duan Ling asked.

Wu Du put Duan Ling in the room, what if Helan Jie came again later

"What kind of hatred does Helan Jie have with me?" Duan Ling asked inexplicably, "I didn't provoke him."

"He doesn't like you." Wu Du said impatiently, "He wants to take revenge on me, so he wants to hurt you."

"Oh..." Duan Ling nodded.

Just as he was talking, a group of party members came out, shouting back and forth, and Duan Ling made a "squeak" in his heart, the secret was not good, what did Helianbo want to do? ! Don't come in and shout Duan Ling Duan Ling, then he will be finished. When Duan Ling woke up, he made up another set of rhetoric full of loopholes. He planned to tell Wu Du once he was exposed, that he and his father had not been shopping for medicinal materials under Tongguan before? It is said that the party prince Xiang of Xiliang was also kidnapped by the bandits, and he rescued the party prince Xiang by accident.

The big deal is that when we meet, he will block Helianbo first in Xi Liang's words. Anyway, Helianbo stutters, no matter what he says, he will only nod, and Wu Du suspects that he can't ask anything.

However, Helianbo did not come. The Dangxiang people first brought in two food boxes, followed by two large pieces of lapis lazuli, a plate of gold bars, ten deerskins, two antlers, and finally a geese ling hat.

Wu Du: "..."

Duan Ling: "..."

Duan Ling said to the party member: "Hurry up and take it back! You don't need it!"

The party member said to Duan Ling, "Please accept what Your Highness has prepared for you. This is his friendship with you."

"You can speak Western Liang?!!" Wu Du said in disbelief.

Duan Ling: "..."

"I've been to Xiliang before." Duan Ling had no choice but to quickly bring out the set to deceive Wu Du, and said, "I learned a few things about buying and selling in the market, 'good' is 'Qiji', thank you It's 'Sudden', am I still singing at noon?"

Wu Du was dubious and completely stunned.

The party member said to Duan Ling again: "His Royal Highness said that the third shift is waiting for you outside the hospital."

After he finished speaking, Duan Ling took the wild goose hat and looked at it, which was a blue-dyed bar-headed wild goose feather.

"What did he say last?" Wu Du asked.

"I don't understand." Duan Ling pretended to be stupid.

Wu Du went out, waved to the party member, and said, "Come here, come here, don't leave after you finish speaking, what do you mean?"

The party members must have been instructed by Helianbo before they came, and immediately disappeared without a trace.
