Nie Huimo didn't sleep well all night.
His arm hurt so much that he couldn't lift it. This kind of injury, which was not on the skin but only on the muscles and bones, was painful and itchy, making him unable to move in any position.
And when he closed his eyes, he saw the scene of a girl and a young man standing in front of them, looking like beautiful women, which made him feel sour in his heart, and he was so melancholy that he could not raise his eyebrows.
When I finally fell asleep, I opened my eyes again, and the light outside the building was already bright.
Nie Huimo was startled and hurriedly got off the bed, opened the window and looked towards the Lanxiang Inn in the distance.
During the day, the inn is full of people running around in all directions. Although Lanxiang Inn is located in a remote location, the front door is also lively.
The innkeeper did not stop anyone, and travelers came and went in an endless stream.
Nie Huimo looked at the situation and thought they might have left.
With a surge of anger, Nie Huimo turned and walked towards the door.
When the two guards heard the door opening, they immediately turned sideways and saluted: "General!"
"Didn't you tell me to call me at Mao hour?" Nie Huimo said angrily.
The two guards looked at each other.
Xiang Shan mustered up his courage: "But General, you... are sleeping very deeply."
"You guys are coming in?"
"In."
"Push me?"
"Pushed."
"Didn't you wake me up?"
The two guards were silent.
After a pause, Xiang Shan nodded: "I didn't wake him up."
Don’t you know whether you pushed me awake or not?
Nie Huimo took a deep breath and said, "Only come in once?"
"……three times."
"Pushed three times?"
Xiang Shan frowned slightly and nodded: "Yes."
Nie Huimo said nothing.
Xiang Shan couldn't wait for a reply for a long time, so he raised his head and looked towards him, and found that the general's thick eyebrows were furrowed, and his eyes were thoughtfully looking at the high table for decoration not far away and the pot of brocade jade and ink orchid on it.
"General?" Xiang Shan whispered.
Nie Huimo came to his senses and asked, "Where is Ling Yang?"
"Didn't the general tell him to keep an eye on Lanxiang Inn?"
"He didn't come back?"
"No."
Nie Huimo pursed his lips, and suddenly turned around and went back to the house: "Prepare water to wash up."
"yes."
Passing through the sea of people, Nie Huimo found Ling Yang near the open-air tea shed behind the sign.
As soon as he saw Nie Huimo, Ling Yang immediately stood up straight: "General."
"Been here all this time?"
"They left early in the morning, and they won't be here until midnight."
"Chenshi?" Nie Huimo looked towards Xiangshan and the others.
The two guards immediately lowered their heads and clasped their fists: "General, please punish me!"
"Also," Ling Yang frowned, "General, they discovered me last night. One person came out and stared at each other, and another one was staring at the post office."
Nie Huimo didn't seem to hear, his handsome profile became as cold as a sculpture.
Ling Yang looked at his arm: "General, your injury..."
Gu Zhu
After a while, Nie Huimo said calmly: "No problem."
Feeling something from the corner of his eye, Nie Huimo turned his head and looked at a girl not far away.
The girl felt something and turned to look at them.
Nie Huimo thought it looked familiar. He looked up and down and recognized that it was the girl who was playing bamboo boards and rapping here before.
The clothes on her body are brand new, and the shoes on her feet are no longer shabby. She is completely different from the shabby street singer and vagabond girl of yesterday.
Nie Huimo said with a gloomy face: "Ask that woman where she got these clothes, but they were given to her by the girl holding the dog yesterday."
Xiangshan took the order and came back and said: "It's not a girl holding a dog. It's said that it was given by a tall and mighty man. He also gave a lot of broken silver. But his surname is Xia."
Nie Huimo curled up his lips with a smile, turned around and left.

March and April are at the peak of spring.
On the way south to Hengxiang, the breeze was clear and the clouds were clear, and the green vegetation and flowers came into view. In the spring scenery, Du Xuan, Wu Shaoning and others stopped by the Magu Temple to rest.
Compared with traveling to Hengxiang from Youzhou, in order to arrive at Hengxiang at the same time as Shen Lie, they did not have to rush, so they simply took a sightseeing tour and deliberately avoided the official road of Yuntian Mountain where all the corpses were still lying there. , going around the distant mountains and ridges to the west.
The secret guards who came with us at the beginning left together this time.
The people of Qingxiang Village, old and young, were very reluctant to leave. They slaughtered pigs and sheep and held a farewell banquet.
But before leaving, Zhan Jiuye grabbed a baggage in his hand, rode a horse, and took Zeng Jishi with him, saying that he wanted to go with him.
It is so tempting to go to the world and discuss studies. In his early years, Zhan Jiuye was a student who devoted himself to learning and studied hard. Unfortunately, in troubled times, there was no place to take revenge. This time, he wanted to go no matter what.
Du Xuan took them together.
Fortunately, they were not in a hurry, so Zeng Ji, who was not very good at riding horses, taught them how to ride horses while walking, and when they felt a little tired, they stopped to rest.
Zhan Jiuye liked chatting with Du Xuan very much. He was deeply impressed by his knowledge and knowledge.
When I used to remember things, I always had a pen in my hand, and I could remember as much as I could.
Du Xuan checked back and forth and saw that he had also written down his bragging about how happy he was. He couldn't help but blush and asked Zeng Ji to delete it.
At this point, Du Xuan began to control his speech and stopped speaking in exaggerated ways.
He lit a fire to make tea and cooked a pot of fine tea from Qingxiang Village. Du Xuan sighed softly while drinking the strong tea and said with emotion: "The color is amazing, the fragrance is amazing, and the taste is even more amazing."
Wu Shaoning looked around and walked over and said, "Sir, I want to pick some fruits and hunt some game."
"Isn't there an ancient temple at the back?" Du Xuan turned around and looked towards the temple, "Go inside and ask if anyone lives there. Let's add some sesame oil money and have some food and drinks."
Wu Shaoning showed some hesitation: "Sir, I have been vegetarian all the way and want to eat meat."
Du Xuan pointed to the temple: "Killing in front of the temple is somewhat inappropriate."
"Then, let's go further?"
Seeing that he really wanted to eat, Du Xuan had to say: "Then go ahead and bring a few people with you. Go early and come back early."
"Um."
But he said he left early and came back early, and after half a day there, Wu Shaoning and the others were still nowhere to be seen.
Du Xuan suddenly felt worried and called the others together, preparing to go to the mountains to find someone. Just then he saw their figures coming back, and there were more than four of them when they left. Two of them were supporting a strange man.
Du Xuan saw the wound on the strange man's leg at a glance and hurriedly stepped forward: "What's going on? What's going on with this leg?"
Blood was dripping down the outside of the man's thigh. Simple measures to stop the bleeding were seen, but they were ineffective.
Du Xuan hurriedly asked them to put the man down, while a secret guard beside him had already fetched the medicine box.
The wound was very deep, as if it had been bitten by a ferocious animal. Zeng remembered that he felt uncomfortable after looking at it: "Is this a tiger bite or a wolf bite?"
"It's a bear." Wu Shaoning said.
"There's a bear on this mountain?!" Zeng remembers being shocked.
"Fortunately, it's not big, so we can still deal with it. If it were an adult bear, I'm afraid we would have to come back injured," said a secret guard.
Du Xuan looked serious: "There is a lot of mud and grass rolled around the wound, which needs to be cleaned and scraped off."
Moreover, even if he is rescued for a while, he may not be able to survive. Not everyone can survive such a serious wound once it becomes infected and inflamed.
"Help me!" the man begged, "help me!"
"I will try my best, but don't say anything yet." Du Xuan said in a deep voice.
