Tang Fan, who was shocked by this guess, became a little nervous after talking to Du Gui'er. Although others might not be able to see it, he and Tang Fan had known each other for several years. Why can't you see it
He could vaguely guess what Tang Fan was struggling with, but he didn't point it out. It wasn't until the break time, when the two of them lay down in the tent, and the person next to him tossed and disturbed people's sleep, and Suizhou finally said: " Runqing."
Tang Fan immediately stopped and pretended to sleep.
Suizhou: "..."
He was helpless and funny, reached out and patted his waist a few times.
Someone who was ticklish immediately flinched reflexively, and was immediately exposed to the fact that he was pretending to be asleep.
"...Huh?" Tang Fan pretended that he had just woken up and rubbed his eyes.
"Stop pretending, I know you haven't slept." Sui Zhou sighed.
"I was woken up by you." Master Tang lied without changing his face.
"What did Du Gui'er tell you?" Sui Zhou asked.
"It's nothing, just gossip." Tang Fan snorted, still turning his back to him.
"Turn around." Suizhou said.
"It's getting late, let's go to bed, I'll talk about it tomorrow." Tang Fan was unmoved.
No matter how calm Suizhou was, he was really unbearable in the face of such evasive behavior of Master Tang.
He originally thought that as long as he gave the other party more time, with Tang Fan's cleverness, he would sooner or later realize it.
But now it seems that he is too naive.
Sometimes in the face of certain people, you have to take some measures to be effective.
Sui Zhou didn't talk nonsense at the moment, he directly pulled the other party's shoulder over, and then bullied him.
Taking advantage of the other person's stunned moment, Sui Zhou kissed him without saying a word.
The night outside the gate was very cold, and the chill came in through the gaps in the tent, eroding into the bones everywhere.
The weather was sunny and sunny during the day, and even the wind blew up after nightfall.
However, the person pressing on him is so hot, and the body temperature is transmitted from the skin that is close to each other, almost making people feel that all the cold outside is isolated and shielded.
"So, do you understand?" After a long time, Sui Zhou slightly distanced himself, half propped up his body with one hand, so as not to put his weight on the other side.
The confusion on Master Tang's face did not fade, and his lips were slightly swollen and watery, which made Suizhou want to do it again.
Just considering the current situation, he felt that it would be better to make things clear first, lest this person default on the debt later.
Sui Zhou looked deeply at the person under him, and slowly repeated what he said earlier: "I have a crush on him. He is shy and loves food."
"..." Tang Fan felt that his thoughts, which he had always been proud of, were clear, wise, and wise, but now there is a tendency for them to become a mess.
In the chaos, there is a bit of shock, a bit of daze, and a bit of surprise.
But why would it be expected
He couldn't tell for a while.
Seeing his fluctuating expression, Sui Zhou wanted to say something, but suddenly heard a painful moan floating outside.
The two froze in their hearts, and the thought of something romantic was suddenly thrown into the clouds.
Suizhou reacted very quickly, grabbed the embroidered spring knife and swept away.
When Tang Fan hurried out, he saw Shen Gui collapsed outside his own tent, rolling on the floor with both hands clutching his throat, in such a state of madness that even Wei Mao couldn't hold him down.
Soon, before everyone could react, blood gushed out from Shen Gui's mouth.
Under the light of the fire, the blood showed an almost magical purple-red color.
"...It's none of my business, they forced me to come to you, don't look for me, don't look for me!" His throat made a ho-ho sound, his eyes were so wide that they almost fell out of their sockets, and on the back of his hand, Blue veins pop up on forehead.
"Who's looking for you, who's talking to you?" Tang Fan was about to step forward, but was stopped by Suizhou, so he could only stand there and ask.
He thought that Shen Gui was in pain and would definitely not listen to the outside world, but the other party showed a smile that was not a smile, and answered his question: "Daochang Li, it's Daochang Li, he came to me, he said that I The secret is revealed, this is retribution, it is retribution, retribution…”
Shen Gui's body twisted and struggled frantically on the ground, and no one could hold back. In a short period of time, the immortals had no time to think of a way. Everyone could only watch his face gradually turn purple, and finally he was hoarse and miserable. He twitched his body and stopped moving.
Everyone was attracted by the movement outside the camp, and then looked at this scene, completely stunned.
They did not expect that such a change would occur in the middle of the night on a calm day.
There is no doubt that the Li Daochang in Shen Gui's mouth must be Li Zilong.
But what about the retribution he said
Could it be that Li Zilong really has so many supernatural powers that he could even detect Shen Gui's leak of the formation from thousands of miles away, and then take his life
Du Gui'er's face was particularly pale.
It's no wonder that although she also treats patients with her own hands, how has she ever seen such a tragic situation unfolding in front of her
Shen Gui's tragic death made even big men feel palpitations, let alone Du Gui'er, a weak woman.
She even covered her mouth and turned her head away in discomfort.
It wasn't until Izumoko stepped forward to check on Shen Gui's condition that she remembered her own job, and she resisted her nausea and stepped forward to help.
"Is it poisoning?" Wang Zhi didn't step forward, his face was very gloomy.
Shen Gui's death, on the other hand, undoubtedly showed his incompetence.
"What do you think of Miss Du?" Izumoko looked at Du Gui'er.
"...It should be poisoning." Du Gui'er took a deep breath, her face still pale, "But I don't quite understand how he got poisoned, obviously we drink the same water as him, and I also ate dry food..."
Everyone looked at Wei Mao, who slept in a tent with Shen Gui.
Wei Mao said: "He looked normal before and wanted to talk to me, but I ignored him, so he fell asleep. As a result, he was only half asleep when I heard movement beside me, so I woke up immediately, and then I saw He scratched his neck in pain and ran out of the tent."
There was nothing useful in his words.
Even if they knew that Shen Gui was poisoned, no one knew what and how he was poisoned.
Shen Gui's death made everyone's heart hang high, and the mood that had been slightly relaxed because of Tang Fan's comforting words was now tense.
Wang Zhi's face was gloomy and uncertain, but how could it be better for the others
Neither Tang Fan nor Sui Zhou believed that Li Zilong would have such magical powers, but he didn't believe it, and it didn't mean that others didn't either.
All things that are beyond common sense understanding will always make people feel unable to resist, and thus retreat from fear.
The soldier who came with Meng Cun tremblingly couldn't help but let out a weak voice: "Sir, why don't we go back first..."
His unfinished words were looked back by Wang Zhi's gloomy eyes.
Wang Zhiyin said sympathetically: "Those who dare to withdraw will be punished according to military law."
The soldier shrank his neck and dared not speak any more.
After all, Meng Cun is a seventh-rank leader, and he is more helpful than his subordinates. He pointed to Shen Gui and asked, "Sir, do we want to bury this man?"
Tang Fan shook his head: "Move him to the lake first, and then we'll deal with it tomorrow."
Although it is estimated that no one will be able to sleep in the future, it is always impossible to stand outside the tent all night.
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, scraping everyone's clothes screechingly, and even some sand and stones that were not covered by water plants by the lake also swirled off the ground.
In order to avoid being fascinated by the wind and sand, everyone narrowed their eyes slightly.
Just as Tang Fan and the others were about to go back to the tent, Miss Du timidly grabbed Sui Zhou's sleeve and said with a sad face, "Brother Sui, can I stay with you, I, I don't dare to sleep alone!"
At this time, it is obviously too hypocritical to say that men and women are not married.
Suizhou didn't answer, but looked at Tang Fan.
Tang Fan nodded and said with a smile, "Of course, come in."
Sui Zhou was a little helpless. He felt that Du Gui'er's appearance was too out of place, and someone was obviously taking this opportunity to escape what happened in the tent just now.
If he hadn't left Du Gui'er to stay in the tent alone, an accident might have happened, and he really wanted to keep people out.
With such a big girl around, it is naturally impossible for Tang Fan and Sui Zhou to lie down and sleep.
Seeing that Du Gui'er was a little cold, Tang Fan gave her a thin quilt to wrap her around.
Du Gui'er, who was wrapped in a thin quilt, gradually got better, but she turned over and over in her mind, all of which were the hideous appearance of Shen Gui before her death.
"It's so strange. How did he get poisoned? It's impossible that Daochang Li is really capable, really capable..."
Her lips trembled, and she didn't dare to say any more, but her eyes stared at Tang Fan and Sui Zhou, as if hoping that they would give an answer so that she would not be so afraid.
Tang Fan was also thinking about this, and he asked Du Gui'er, "In your opinion, is it possible that he was poisoned before he left the city, and it happened only now?"
Du Gui'er thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Some poisons can indeed delay the onset of the attack, but it also means that it is impossible to die immediately. In the case of Shen Gui, only when he is poisoned with a strong poison will it happen like this. Suddenly, so fast..."
She suddenly thought of a possibility, and she couldn't help shivering: "I heard that there is a strange gu poison in the southwest, colorless and odorless, it can attack according to the mind of the gull, and it is impossible to prevent it, he should not, should not Did you get caught in this?"
Unexpectedly, Tang Fan was well-informed and had some understanding of gu poison, so he said to Du Gui'er, "Even if it is gu poison, it is impossible to poison someone from thousands of miles away, he has to get close. , there is a chance, so no matter what kind of poison it is, the most important thing is to find out the cause of Shen Gui's death..."
His words suddenly stopped, as if thinking about something.
Du Gui'er waited curiously for his next words, but Tang Fan just didn't speak, she had to look at Sui Zhou, trying to find the answer from his face.
Of course, Du Gui'er was doomed to disappointment.
The wind outside was getting stronger and stronger, flapping the tent non-stop, and blowing in from all directions, and even the initiation of the three people was blown up slightly.
"Why is the wind so strong?" Tang Fan raised his head and asked strangely.
Du Gui'er's expression changed: "Do you want to blow sandstorms?"
The wind was so strong that the entire tent seemed to be lifted up, and the ropes pulling the four corners of the tent were fixed by rivets firmly nailed to the ground. When it was pulled up, the candles in the tent had already been blown out helplessly, it was pitch black inside, and the three of them could hardly see each other even if they were close at hand.
Under such a wind, the torches outside had already been extinguished.
"I'll go out and see, you guys stay here." After Suizhou finished speaking, he got up and walked out.
Tang Fan could only vaguely see a figure opening the tent and walking out. The moment the tent curtain was opened, the wind and sand swept in, and it suddenly hurt their faces, and even their sitting bodies couldn't help but lean back slightly. .
Du Gui'er couldn't help but let out a low exclamation.
"Miss Du?"
Because she was a woman, it was impossible for Du Gui'er to get too close like Tang Fan and Suizhou after entering the tent, a little distance from them, but under the complete darkness at the moment, Tang Fan couldn't see where she was at all.
"I'm here..." Du Gui'er replied, wrapping the thin quilt tightly around her body, but her teeth were still trembling. She didn't expect that in the late spring and early summer, it was enough to change into a light spring shirt in the border town, even at night. It's just a little more clothes, but the night outside the customs is so cold that it can be compared to winter.
"Sui, brother Sui, will you be okay?"
"No." Tang Fan replied, but he didn't have a clue in his heart.
It was a completely unfamiliar place they had never set foot in.
In the team, including Du Gui'er, although there were several people who had been to Guanwai, in fact, they all knew little about this place, no matter whether it was Shen Gui, Meng Cun, or Du Guier, what they saw outside Guanwai. , and it is only one side of the customs.
Tang Fan suddenly had a feeling that since Li Zilong set up a formation here and ambushed the Ming army with ease, did he expect them to come here
He had always regarded Li Zilong as a demon, but even if it was a demon, he could escape under the eyes of the emperor, and then ran to the border to be free, which meant that he could not be treated the same as an ordinary messenger and thief, at least , This Taoist priest, who is still in the dark, is much more difficult to deal with than Li Man, Jiu Niangzi and others.
However, before he could wait for him to think about it, there was a dull thunder in the distance outside.
Immediately afterwards, the outside of the tent crackled a few times, intermittently, as if something hit the tent.
The voice became more and more intense, and Du Gui'er also changed his face: "Is it raining?"
Yes, it was raining, but Suizhou didn't come back.
Thunder roared and lightning flashed across the sky, but what really made Tang Fan and Du Gui'er's mood dignified was the increasing rain.
Before they came, they did not expect this situation.
The tent was not tight, the rain was heavy, and the water gradually poured in from the outside, the ground became wet, and there was a tendency for water to accumulate.
But if you leave here, where can you go
I don't know what's going on outside now, let alone Suizhou, I haven't even heard other people's movements.
Of course, even if there is, it is estimated that it will be covered by the sound of rain.
If there was only Tang Fan now, he would definitely go out to check the situation, but there is also Du Gui'er here. Once he leaves, Du Gui'er must be afraid, and in the wilderness, a girl's home is also very easy to encounter danger .
Tang Fan was hesitating, but he heard Du Gui'er say: "Brother Tang, I know that there is a cave at the foot of the Man Han Mountain. I used to go there when I came back to collect herbs, and it looks quite deep from the outside. Shelter from the rain is definitely fine, sooner or later it will flood and we can't stay here forever."
Tang Fan thought for a moment and made a decision: "That's okay, follow me and don't get separated!"
The two rushed out of the tent one after the other.
The rain was even heavier than expected, and it poured with all its might.
But for a moment, the two of them were all wet.
Du Gui'er was better. She was at least wrapped in a thin quilt, which slowed down her body from being eroded by the rain, but Tang Fan was not so lucky. He had completely turned into a chicken.
"Brother Tang, where are we going!" Du Gui'er shouted.
Under the sound of rain, even speaking had to raise his voice.
"Find them first, you follow me!" Tang Fan turned his head and shouted, then ran forward, looking for and calling people: "Guangchuan! Wang Zhi! Wei Mao!"
There was no human voice to answer him, only the downpour.
Tang Fan stumbled and groped to the tent next to him, lifted the probes one by one and went in to call for people, but without exception he didn't respond.
Except for the two of them, everyone seemed to disappear in an instant without a trace.
However, if the others are not here, where can they go
Can't all jump into the lake
Naturally, it cannot be ruled out that everyone has been separated, and because the rain is too heavy and the sky is dark, it is impossible to see the road.
It's just that Tang Fan and Du Gui'er were soon disappointed. Under this kind of wind and rain, it was a little difficult for people to even take a few steps forward, let alone search around. As soon as Tang Fan shouted, the rain followed the wind. He poured it into his mouth, even if it was so, they still couldn't find anyone.
Between heaven and earth, it seems that only Tang Fan and Du Gui'er are left.
Soon, Tang Fan found that although the rain came fast, it went too fast, and it had gradually become smaller and weaker.
But the bad news is that the wind is getting stronger and stronger, and it almost drives people away, picking up the sand on the ground and rushing towards them desperately.
They had just been drenched in rain, and now they were blown by the strong wind, and both of them felt a bone-chilling cold.
The thin quilt wrapped around Du Gui'er was completely soaked, and she had to throw it on the ground, but then she was shivering from the wind.
At this time, she could not care about the suspicion of being a man or a woman, she held Tang Fan's arm tightly, and even her voice was trembling: "Tang, Big Brother Tang, what should I do now?"
Tang Fan originally wanted to pull her behind the tent, use the tent to block the wind, and take a breather, but the two of them looked around, but were surprised to find that the tent that was beside them had disappeared.
"Brother Tang, listen, there seems to be some noise...?" Du Gui'er pulled him down and whispered in his ear.
what sound
They can't see five fingers around them, not even the tent and Weining Haizi not far away, let alone other things.
However, if you listen carefully, it seems that you can really hear something.
Following the wind, there seemed to be some movement in the distance.
The two listened intently for a while, and although they couldn't see each other's faces in the darkness, they couldn't help but change their faces.
"It's the sound of hooves! How can there be a sound of hooves here?" Du Gui'er became nervous, but his voice was even lower, almost in a breath.
Tang Fan couldn't answer her question, because he was also judging where the sound of hooves came from.
However, the surrounding environment is completely bleak now, and they are almost blinded, and they can't even recognize the direction, let alone the direction of the hooves.
Listening carefully again, in the wind, in addition to the hooves of horses, there seems to be a clanging sound of soldiers, knives and spears, as if the army rushed to the battlefield in the dark and hurried.
Tang Fan was a little dazed, this kind of scene seemed familiar, until Du Gui'er's fingernails were pinched tightly into his flesh, and there was a slight pain in his arm, he woke up.
"What should I do, Big Brother Tang!" Du Gui'er also heard that the other party was not just riding a few horses, but that there were thousands of troops.
The problem is that they can't even recognize the road now, and where are they going to hide
"Don't move!" Tang Fan held her tightly, the two of them squatted on the spot, and the wind lifted their jackets high. At this moment, the clothes of the two of them were all wet, and they could only keep shivering due to the cold wind blowing so wildly.
The sound of hoofs drew nearer, accompanied by the sound of horns and unknown slogans.
Du Gui'er gritted her teeth and covered her mouth, but she still couldn't help sneezing.
After sneezing, she realized what she had done.
Then, there was a tap on the shoulder.
Du Gui'er's face turned pale.
Tang Fan was squatting in front of her, with his arms still in his hands, so who would pat him on the shoulder from behind
She didn't dare to look back, but said in a tone that was not much better than crying: "Tang, Big Brother Tang, someone is filming me from behind..."
Tang Fan was stunned for a moment, then turned his head subconsciously, but couldn't see anything.
"Who is it!" he asked alertly, pulling Du Gui'er forward.
Immediately, Du Gui'er squeaked and turned towards him.
Tang Fan immediately caught her.
"My shoulder, my shoulder seems to be scratched by something, it hurts..." Du Gui'er groaned.
Tang Fan reached out and touched it, it was wet, and when he took it to his nose, he smelled it, and it really smelled bloody.
"Let's go!" He helped Du Gui'er up, wrapped one of her hands around his shoulders, and put the other hand on her waist, dragged her up and half-carried and ran forward.
There was a sound of swords clashing from behind.
Du Gui'er bit her lower lip: "I see, isn't that what you said about the passage of the shadow soldiers?... I was injured by the shadow soldiers just now?"
Tang Fan said without thinking, "Don't think wildly, how ghosts can hurt people!"
He didn't turn around to see what happened, but supported Du Gui'er and ran in the opposite direction immediately.
Thousands of troops rushed in, and the horn sounded in my ears. In the darkness, it seemed that two armies had met unexpectedly. A group that shook the sky.
But Tang Fan and Du Gui'er were wrapped in such momentum and walked with difficulty.
They don't know where they are, where the road ahead is, and they don't even know where these troops come from, whether they are humans or ghosts.
If it is human, who is it
Those horns and shouts of killing agitated the eardrums, Tang Fan could only hear that they were not speaking the Mandarin of the Central Plains, and that it was different from the Tartar dialect. As for which ethnic group's language it was, it was difficult to distinguish.
But if it was a ghost, how could Du Gui'er get hurt
Is there really a ghost in the world that can hurt people and kill people
What happened that night was really too mysterious, and many of them had far exceeded the limit they could imagine on a daily basis.
Even in the daytime, I heard Yunzi talk about the Yin Soldier's way, but after all, no one has seen it with his own eyes, and now he is in it, and he inevitably has a subtle feeling of how small he is.
However, in a hurry, Tang Fan didn't have time to think too much, and he took Du Gui'er all the way forward.
Because he couldn't tell the direction, Tang Fan was worried that he would accidentally waddle into the lake or trip over, so he had to watch the road while running, which was doomed that their speed could not be too fast.
I don't know how long it took to run, but Du Gui'er's footsteps became slower and slower, and his body became weaker and weaker. Almost his whole body was hanging on Tang Fan's body.
"I, I can't do it anymore... I can't run anymore, Big Brother Tang, leave me alone, just run!" Du Gui'er was panting.
"What nonsense!" Tang Fan naturally didn't let go of her.
Du Gui'er didn't speak any more, and she couldn't say more. The wound on her shoulder was bleeding all the time. The blood loss made her completely lose her strength. .
Tang Fan noticed her strangeness and had to slow down: "Rest now, I'll help you bandage the wound."
Du Gui'er let out a forbidding moan, this girl is indeed strong enough, and she didn't cry out in pain at this time. Tang Fan said "offended" and went to touch the wound on her shoulder. , only to find that Du Gui'er's wound was unexpectedly deep.
She seemed to have been scratched by some kind of weapon, the flesh turned out, and the blood had not stopped. If it was not treated in time, this kind of wound would definitely be fatal.
Du Gui'er is a doctor herself. When they came out, they also brought a lot of medicine for external use and oral administration, but the problem is that in this environment, even the clothes are wet, and the effect of dressing with medicine is not very great. It is best to Is to be able to find a dry and safe environment to rest first.
Tang Fan was a little worried, but the movements of his men did not stop because of this.
He first took out the medicine, gropingly sprinkled it on Du Gui'er's wound, then tore off the corner of his clothes and bandaged her casually.
"How are you? Don't fall asleep, talk!" He patted Du Gui'er's cheek lightly.
"I, I can…" Du Gui'er gritted her teeth, her voice was obviously much weaker.
"Hold on, it should be dawn in two hours, and then you can find a way out!" Tang Fan said.
It was a dark night, the partners were separated, and there were constant dangers. It was really hard to endure.
But if it can be solved with wisdom, it is not difficult.
The most desperate thing is not the harsh environment, but the unknown and unpredictable front.
Du Gui'er moved slightly, not knowing if she heard it or not.
The wind was still whistling, accompanied by the sound of golden iron horses that were close to them, no matter how far they went, it seemed that they could not get rid of these soldiers and horses that followed them. Surrounded by front and back.
The slaughter and slaughter were staged in front of them. This was an ancient battlefield that was unknown how many years ago. A wind, rain and sandstorm brought them back to this battlefield and experienced the scene that had happened.
The neighing of horses, the screams of soldiers being killed and wounded, and the sound of swords and guns coming close to each other are so real that they are not like illusions, making people feel that those swords and guns will fall on their heads in the next second.
But Tang Fan and Du Gui'er had nowhere to escape and were powerless to resist.
Thanks to this fight, even though he was injured, Du Gui'er's spirit was still tense, and he would not be completely unconscious.
Although she knew she couldn't see, she still tried her best to open her eyes, trying to see what was going on around her.
Suddenly, her arm was suddenly grabbed by a cold hand.
"Ah!!!" The frightened Du Gui'er couldn't stand it no matter how strong she was, and immediately screamed.
The author has something to say:
small theater:
The day after being kissed.
Master Tang woke up and found Sui Zhou staring at him.
Tang Fan: What do you think I do
Suizhou: Do you still remember what happened last night
Tang Fan thought for a while: I can't remember.
Sui Zhou reminded him: the thing before going to bed.
Tang Fan suddenly: Oh, you said that you take away the candied plums that I won't eat, it doesn't matter.
Suizhou: …
