please come back

The pounce of the little wolf made the assassin startled, he even forgot to swing the knife, and the wolf had been raised by Jiang Linyuan to be very strong, so with just one leap, he threw the assassin who was standing still in place. He turned his head up to the sky.

As soon as the killer fell, he knocked down a piece of the tables and chairs in the house with a "ding ding ding bang".Jiang Linyuan woke up from his sleep when he heard the voice, and when he looked back, he saw the light in the house and heard the roaring sound in the house, so he got up and went into the house without thinking too much.

As soon as Jiang Linyuan arrived at the door, he saw the little wolf in the room biting the throat of the man under him, and the man was dying, stabbing the little wolf indiscriminately with the dagger in his hand, leaving a lot of blood. hole.

The little wolf didn't seem to feel it, and kept that posture without moving until the man's hand hung down weakly, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang".At this moment, the little wolf raised his head and looked at Jiang Linyuan who was standing blankly at the door. The fierceness in his eyes was gone, but he was a little more wronged. He whimpered, full of helplessness.

Jiang Linyuan rushed over, threw himself on the fallen little wolf, and blocked the wound on his body with his hands, but Jiang Linyuan only had two hands, and he could block one but not the other.

The little wolf raised his head with great effort, and licked Jiang Linyuan's hand, leaving a long blood-stained mark. Then, with the last of his strength, he arched the wolf's head into Jiang Linyuan's arms, just like the old man , the little guy lost in the snow.

Jiang Linyuan hugged the little wolf's head tightly, and held on tightly until the temperature on the little wolf's neck was already freezing cold, and the blood on the wound stopped flowing.Jiang Linyuan buried his head deeply in the little wolf's gray fur, unwilling to lift it up again.

Later, this little wolf was buried by Jiang Linyuan in a clean place outside Fengcheng. Jiang Linyuan built a small soil bag for it. Instead of erecting a monument, he sprinkled some flower seeds on the small soil bag. In the spring of the coming year, this small field should be full of colorful flowers.

Jiang Linyuan remembered that although the wolf was a ferocious beast, it liked flowers and plants very much. In the spring, it would roll in the flowers and grass, wipe the pollen from its nose, and sneeze all night. Some water was poured into his nose, and the little wolf might not recover overnight.

Thinking like this, Jiang Linyuan thought of Xia Heyu again, reached out and grabbed the little soil bag fiercely, grabbing back all the emotions that came out of his heart.

In early autumn, the leaves outside the city had turned yellow, and some leaves that were unbearable for autumn had already fallen, and drifted to Jiang Linyuan's feet with the autumn wind.

Jiang Linyuan picked up a fallen leaf. The fallen leaf was still soft and its roots were still green. Jiang Linyuan put the fallen leaf on top of the small soil bag. The leaf shook and went with the breeze.Looking at the fallen leaves without roots, Jiang Linyuan was suddenly afraid. Now that the little wolf has gone, will he be left alone in the days to come.

"Brother Jiang."

Fortunately, Xiaosha's voice suddenly sounded from behind Jiang Linyuan at this time, so that he stopped thinking about it. Jiang Linyuan took a deep breath to calm himself down, sprinkled the last bit of grass seeds in his hand, turned around and asked :"What's wrong?"

Xiao Sha curled her lips and said, "I've checked everything on that killer."

"How? What clues can we find?" Jiang Linyuan asked.

Shaking his head, Xiaosha said: "The things on that man are just common things in the market, and even the dagger is the most common one in the market, so we can't find anything at all."

Hearing this, Jiang Linyuan didn't show much disappointment, but nodded slightly, and said, "I know, then there's no need to investigate further."

"Why don't you investigate?" Xiaosha stomped his feet and said, "Who dares to be so rampant, and it will pay off in the long run?"

Jiang Linyuan smiled and said: "If this person is leaning on the imperial couch and drinking the fine wine, then he really dares to be so rampant."

"Ah?" Xiao Sha didn't understand this sentence for a while, and asked with her head tilted.

Jiang Linyuan shook his head, looked back at the dirt bag where the little wolf was buried, and said to Xiaosha, "How is General Xia today?"

"It's still the same. You can't wake up in a coma, but you can swallow water, and you can't feed anything else." Xiaosha paused, and then said: "Brother Jiang, you've been so skinny recently. Come on, Zhang Ling asked the chef to cook something delicious, you should go back and eat some."

Jiang Linyuan looked at Xiao Sha's worried eyes, and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, I'll go back to eat right away, remember to go back and tell Zhang Ling, don't worry about me."

"Can you not be worried?" Xiaosha pouted, "General Xia is in a coma now. If anything happens to you, you will lose your backbone. Zhang Ling also sent a team to guard General Xia." and your house, for fear that something might happen again."

"I remember when you said that. You remember to send someone to hang the second person's head at the gate of Fengcheng." Jiang Linyuan said.

"Why...why?" Xiaosha asked.

"In order to let the master behind these two know, his plan did not succeed." Jiang Linyuan said coldly.

"But Brother Jiang, aren't you afraid that that person will send another person?" Xiaosha said.

"I'm afraid." Jiang Linyuan nodded, "But I'm not willing to let it go like this. That person owes me a life, and I will make him pay it back sooner or later."

Xiao Sha bit her lower lip and said, "Understood, I'll send someone to do it in a while."

Since the night when the little wolf died, Jiang Linyuan didn't sleep outside the door at night, but he didn't sleep on the bed in the house either, because he didn't want to lean against the half-dead Xia Heyu, so he pulled a thin quilt to wrap him up every night. , leaning against the bed to sleep.

Occasionally, when Jiang Linyuan couldn't fall asleep, he would light a candle and talk to Xia Heyu, or see Xia Heyu tired lying on his back, and help Xia Heyu turn over.

Speaking of turning over, Jiang Linyuan was never angry with Xia Heyu, either kicked him, or threw him into the couch with his collar slipped, and shook his hands after throwing him.

It's not that Jiang Linyuan dislikes Xia Heyu so much, it's just that he wants to wake Xia Heyu up in this way, even if he loses his temper at him.But Xia Heyu just had trouble with Jiang Linyuan, and never woke up.

Thinking about the time the two were together, Xia Heyu never lost his temper with Jiang Linyuan, it was just some small fights and some silly jokes.

Jiang Linyuan turned Xia Heyu on his back, leaned his chin tiredly on the edge of the couch, squinted at Xia Heyu, and felt bored after watching for a long time, so he pushed Xia Heyu's face hard with his palm, and turned around Leaning on the bed, wrapping herself in the quilt, watching the weakly flickering candle, she gradually fell asleep.

On the second day, Zhang Ling sent Jiang Linyuan a letter from Qi Xingzhe who occupied Zhongnan.Jiang Linyuan frowned, spread out the letter and read it.

Apart from some boring greetings, the main content of the letter was to invite Xia's army to join forces with his army to attack the capital together and kill that Shi Jinyu.

Jiang Linyuan read it briefly, but became interested in the letter.The letter paper was bleached very white, and it was bordered with gold thread. One could tell at a glance that this Qi Xingzhe was a rich man.Jiang Linyuan shook his head and threw the letter aside.

"Why... how about Young Master Jiang, shall we unite or not?" Zhang Ling asked seeing Jiang Linyuan finished reading the letter.

"We're afraid we won't be able to cooperate with this person. If we do, we'll just keep it for future betrayal." Jiang Linyuan said slowly.

"Why?" Zhang Ling asked.

"Believe it or not, Shi Jinyu also has a copy of this letter with the same content. Qi Xingzhe has a rich family background, so he should be a businessman. If he is a businessman, he will know how to make money from both sides." Jiang Linyuan said.

"But if we don't cooperate with him, what if he joins the court to attack us?" Zhang Ling asked worriedly.

After being silent for a while, Jiang Linyuan said: "There is such a possibility, then it is better to give him a reply letter with an unclear attitude, and delay him, or...or wait until we get through this crisis. Make a decision."

Zhang Ling nodded, and knew what the crisis Jiang Linyuan was talking about. Judging from the current situation, he couldn't go to the battlefield behind his back.

"I will write this letter. After you finish writing, send someone to send it to Qi Xingzhe, but remember, use a bad horse and run slowly. If you can delay it for a day, it will be a day." Jiang Linyuan continued, and after finishing speaking, he put it on the desk Seeing this, Zhang Ling hurriedly stood aside to grind it for him, smiling while grinding.

Zhang Ling's smiling movement couldn't hide from Jiang Linyuan's eyes, Jiang Linyuan didn't look up, and asked while writing a letter, "What are you laughing at?"

Zhang Ling scratched his head and said, "It's nothing, I just admire Young Master Jiang."

Jiang Linyuan looked up at him and said, "Vice General Zhang, what do you admire about me?"

"That's too much." Zhang Ling smiled, and he didn't mention the specifics, because he believed that Jiang Linyuan understood.

Jiang Linyuan shook his head again, and continued to bury his head in writing his letter. After a while, a letter was finished. Jiang Linyuan picked it up and read it again. He felt that there was no problem, so he dried the ink and put it in an envelope. Gave it to Zhang Ling.Zhang Ling took it, said goodbye to Jiang Linyuan, and went out the door.

Jiang Linyuan put down the pen in his hand and stared at the scenery outside the window in a daze. When he turned his head, he saw Xia Heyu on the bed again. Xia Heyu had only lived on the sugar water poured down these days. It looks like a sharp knife.

At this moment, the chef sent someone to bring Jiang Linyuan dinner, which consisted of light porridge and a few delicious-looking side dishes.

Jiang Linyuan tilted his head and watched Xia Heyu lose weight day by day. In fact, he felt very distressed. He glanced at the porridge on the table and went to Xia Heyu's couch with it, thinking that he would drink it anyway. It should also be poured down from the nose.

The porridge was a bit hot, but Jiang Linyuan didn't rush to pour it, but stood aside and stirred it with a spoon to let the porridge cool down quickly.

And at this moment, Jiang Linyuan heard the person on the couch cough, very slightly but very real.Jiang Linyuan stood stupidly for a moment, saw Xia Heyu's throat move, coughed again, suddenly put the porridge bowl in his hand on Xia Heyu's face, and walked out quickly.
