Chapter 209: No corpses in bridges and paving
Three days later, early in the morning, the sky in the east had just revealed a trace of whiteness.
Gu Xianfo stretched out his big waist and walked out of the cave where he lived that he had given up for him. He sat on a huge rock in the venue and was stunned.
Bai Qi has the highest status among these thirty-two ridges, and the cave where he lives is naturally the largest, best and highest on this ridge. So after walking out of the cave, Gu Xianfo showed off most of the scenery on this ridge. Under the impact of this vast and rough Gobi Desert, the depression in Gu Xianfo's heart was also disbanded a little.
In a battle three days ago, the three camps paid the price of 127 deaths and killed Huang Lusheng. Bai Qi knelt down and hoped that Gu Xian Buddha would be the main force in this life and listen to his orders for the rest of his life. However, Gu Xian Buddha knew very well that this promise and loyalty were worthless on the horse thief of Yumen Pass. Although Bai Qi vowed today that he could go up the sword mountain and fall into the sea of fire for Gu Xian Buddha, if Gu Xian Buddha loses power tomorrow, Bai Qi could immediately turn the spear head and treat Gu Xian Buddha as an irreconcilable enemy.
This has nothing to do with Bai Qi's human nature, it is purely a characteristic given to him by the identity of a horse thief.
Being a horse thief is far more important than being a vicious person.
Therefore, although Gu Xianfo accepted this considerable force, he did not naively regard him as his confidant, but more of them as speculators who were flirting with the tiger.
Can you contact the Queen in the Chang'an City Palace, but you are not a speculator?
On the banks of the Wei River.
When Gu Xianfo thinks of these four words, he has a knot in his heart.
Sixteen years ago, the seven-year-old Gu Xianfo and his mother met the queen on the bank of the Wei River. Her mother used her as a horse-mounted stone to serve the radiant empress on the carriage.
It was from that time that Gu Xianfo listed the queen and the prince as irreconcilable enemies in his heart.
That day, the spies from the Supervision Bureau did not appear. Of course, they did not escape at the last minute, but were assigned by Gu Xianfo to Bai Qi's old nest. Bai Qi's army set out forth, and they killed in. They only paid the price of minor injuries to the three people and took the ridge.
The Empress stayed here to control Bai Qi's seven contacts to capture four people alive and kill three people. This was the fundamental purpose of Gu Xianfo sending them over.
Although the news of Bai Qi's color change will definitely be transmitted back to Chang'an in the end, Gu Xianfu can make an extra day of layout if he can make one day later.
The day after the battle, the third battalion guarded the convoy and set off, but because Haichan and Li Sheng were unconscious and unstable, Gu Xianfo was afraid of the long bumps on the road, so he simply took the doctor from the Gu Mansion to stop on Bai Qi's ridge, preparing to wait until the two of them had improved before they set off.
In terms of guarding, Gu Xianfo also learned the lesson last time. In addition to Gu Yan and five Tianzi masters who had experienced many battles from the Gu Mansion, Wei Xiaofeng also stationed less than three miles away from the ridge with five horses and strong bows and crossbows, ready to support Gu Xianfo who had an accident at any time.
Bai Qi naturally knew what Gu Xianfo meant to him at this time. It was not too much to say that he could control the life and death of their six thousand horse thieves. He immediately brought all the best caves, the most beautiful maids, the best doctors, and the most precious herbs, just to serve the old man named Gu and be happy.
Gu Yan, who lived in the cave on the other side, heard the sound in the yard, and walked out with a sleepy look on his clothes. Gu Xianfo looked at his younger brother who was still sleeping in a daze and cursed, "You guarded until the fourth day of the night last night, and thought I didn't know? Get out and go to bed. What can happen to me on this ridge!"
Gu Yan smiled and then returned to the cave with two dark circles to continue to take care of his sleep.
There were two maids serving Gu Xianfo's cave. Bai Qi originally sent sixteen maids with each other's own merits. Gu Xianfo sent back most of them, leaving only a graceful and beautiful woman in her thirty years and a cardamom girl who seemed to be a barbarian.
Shortly after Gu Xianfo walked out of the cave, the graceful and beautiful woman finished dressing up and walked out with a copper basin. After walking to Gu Xianfo, Yingying gave her a blessing, and then she smiled gently: "Master, please wash your face first. I will go to the kitchen to urge you for breakfast."
The girl who seemed to be a barbarian seemed very frightened to see Gu Xianfo. She was holding a white towel in her hand but didn't dare to lean over. She didn't look at it carefully last night. Only then did Gu Xianfo have time to look at her carefully today. She was about the same age as Ye Xiang who came to Xiliang with the team, and they both had some small freckles on their faces. The difference was that this girl had blue eyes and yellow hair, and her cheekbones were different from those of the people in the Central Plains, but her skin was much whiter than most women Gu Xianfo had seen.
Under Gu Xianfo's gaze, the cardamom girl became even more frightened, and tears began to rush into her eyes. However, the horse thief's education on her sticks was engraved in her bones these days, so she did not turn around and run away.
Gu Xianfo was intrigued and asked with great interest while washing his hands: "What do you call him?"
The graceful and beautiful woman smiled gently and said softly: "When I say my master, my maid's name is Chunshui. This little girl was sent by a ridge under the command of Bai Dang's family a few days ago. She doesn't know how to speak our Central Plains Mandarin or even the grassland Mandarin Mandarin. According to her words, Bai Dang's family gave this little girl the name of Xiaoman. Now she is called Xiaoman. She knows that she calls her, and she will also say a few Central Plains Mandarin Mandarin Mandarin. She is just timid and afraid of seeing strangers. You should take more responsibility."
Gu Xianfo washed his face casually, took the towel that the little girl handed timidly and wiped it, threw the towel into the basin, and asked with a smile: "Little girl, where are you from?"
Xiaoman stared at her confused eyes and thought for a long time before she finally spoke a few intermittent words like a baby learning to speak: "I... the sea... the big ship... the wind is strong..."
Gu Xianfo shook his head and smiled, and was not embarrassed by the stuttering little girl. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, you guys go down and prepare breakfast. I'll stay here for a while."
Chunshui gave him a blessing and then he took Xiaoman back slowly.
Gu Xianfo sighed, got up from the bluestone and patted the dust on his butt, and went to another cave next to his cave. A martial artist named Tian was guarding the door of the cave with a solemn expression. When he saw Gu Xianfo coming, he just nodded, and his right hand never left the hilt of the knife at his waist.
Gu Xianfo lifted the curtain and walked in. At this time, Haichan was lying on the only earthen kang in the cave. His face was pale and his eyes were closed, his breathing was too light. His black hair had spread out like a scattered black waterfall.
A maid who was serving on the side had just finished wiping Hai Chan's face when she saw Gu Xianfo coming in and giving her a timid blessing.
Gu Xianfo waved his hand, sat next to Hai Chan, gently held Hai Chan's soft little hand, stared at Hai Chan's face, and began to count Hai Chan's eyelashes.
As he counted, Gu Xianfu was in trouble, so he started counting again.
After repeated cycles of this, Gu Xianfo still did not count Qing Haichan's eyelashes. He took his eyes off Haichan's face, staring at the top of the cave, dazed intently, not knowing what he was thinking.
After about a cup of tea and hot, Chunshui's soft voice came from outside the curtain of the cave door: "Master, breakfast is ready, and Bai Dangjia has also come here. I want to use breakfast with you. Bai Dangjia wants to ask if it is possible?"
Only then did Gu Xianfo wake up from his memories, carefully put Hai Chan's tender girdle into the thin quilt, lowered his head and kissed Hai Chan's bloodless red lips like a dragonfly, got up and walked out.
From coming in and going out, Gu Xianfo didn't say a word.
But he firmly believed that Haichan knew everything he wanted to tell Haichan.
When he walked out of the cave, what caught Gu Xianfu's eyes was the pitiful face of Chunshui who was rejected by the martial artist of the sky. Gu Xianfu did not care about the beautiful woman's resentful eyes, but walked into his cave and said, "Call Bai Qi in, and don't get close to this cave again in the future, otherwise you will never have time to say your last words when you are dying."
Gu Xianfo said it plainly, but Chunshui was shocked in her heart. She had been in the horse thief's nest for so long at this age, so she naturally knew whether Gu Xianfo said it was true or false. She immediately ran all the way and laughed and went to the yard to call the Bai Dangjia, who was outside the gate of Gongjinghou, who was outside the gate.
In the cave where Gu Xianfo was temporarily living, there were more than a dozen kinds of food on the table in the middle. Xiaoman, who was holding the corner of his clothes, swallowed his saliva but did not dare to move. Even the dull Gu Xianfo was amused by Xiaoman in such a posture.
Gu Xianfo lifted the back of his robe and sat on the tall seat in tiger's skin. Xiaoman, who had been stunned at the food, realized that someone had arrived. He hurriedly imitated Chunshui and made a bad fortune.
Gu Xianfo smiled, picked up two unique Baiji buns in the western part of Daqian, and personally served a bowl of steaming milky white mutton soup from the clay pot, and pushed them to Xiaoman.
Xiaoman pointed to his nose in surprise.
Gu Xianfo nodded.
Xiaoman was even more frightened and hurriedly waved his hands and snorted out a series of hometown dialects that Gu Xianfo could not understand.
Gu Xianfo pretended to be angry, and Xiaoman then took the Baiji bun and mutton soup in fear, but did not dare to sit in the seat that Gu Xianfo pointed to her. Instead, he found a corner and squatted down and ate it.
Gu Xianfo felt a little touched when he saw Xiaoman swallowing his voracious look, but it was just a touch. He was indeed a person with normal sympathy, but he also knew how much he had and knew that he was not the material that could save the people of the world from the fire and water.
It seems that he can make the best of his ability to give a little girl a piece of white cheese bun and a bowl of mutton soup.
The sound of spring water reporting carefully came from outside the curtain.
Gu Xianfo whispered: "Come in."
The curtain was lifted by Bai Qi. As soon as he entered the cave, Bai Qi was directly prostrated and said respectfully: "The sinner Bai Qi has seen the prince."
Xiaoman, who was eating voraciously, suddenly heard the devil's voice, and choked in an instant, coughing continuously for a while, his face flushed.
Gu Xianfo did not care about Bai Qi who was kneeling on the ground, but turned around and looked at Xiaoman. Xiaoman was becoming more and more afraid, but the more he was afraid of the cough, the more he could not stop it. In an instant, tears burst out from his eyes.
Although she had only been to Lingzi for several months, she could no longer know the methods of horse thieves to control people.
After she finally took a breath and wiped the tears that covered her eyes, she suddenly realized that there were more feet in front of her, one pair of feet wearing blue cloth boots.
Xiaoman raised his head and saw the smiling Gu Xianfo handing over a cup of hot tea.
Somehow, seeing the stranger's smile, Xiaoman took the cup of hot tea by chance. When she realized it, the stranger had returned to her seat and half of the hot tea in her hand was drunk.
Xiaoman's tears fell again, I don't know if it was because the hot tea was too hot or something else.
Chapter completed!
