I don't want to return

Chapter 17 You Should Know Me

Xue Jinghong couldn't take his eyes off the moment Mu Chongyu walked into the tent.

If you don't count the quick glimpse in the valley a few months ago, he and Mu Chongyu haven't seen each other for ten years.In ten years, all the vicissitudes of life, all his enthusiasm, all the joy and anger disappeared with the departure of Mu Chongyu ten years ago, and from now on, only the sadness of wasting time is left.

Seeing this person again now, and the distance between the two of them is so close, it almost makes him feel like he is in a dream.

Mu Chongyu's appearance seems to have remained unchanged, his eyes are always clear and handsome like autumn water, his complexion is fair to pale, and his thin lips are slightly pressed when he is silent, all are the appearance in his memory.However, he was indeed a little different.

Although Chongyu was young at this time, his face seemed extremely haggard and weak. Xue Jinghong could see the cold sweat oozing from Mu Chongyu's forehead when he was talking to Zou Chun.There is also a not-so-light bruise under his eye sockets, and his lips are dry enough to be a layer of skin.

Is Chongyu sick?Or was it injured in the battle just now?When he was in the tent, Xue Jinghong wanted to ask him several times, but in the end he held back.

Although his Chongyu is weak, he is by no means fragile.In his eyes, he clearly saw the tenacity and stubbornness that had been hidden in the past, as if the dusty pearl finally revealed its original dazzling brilliance.

It turned out that Mu Chongyu, who left Beiyu, was originally like this.

Xue Jinghong felt a faint dull pain, which spread from the apex of his heart and vibrated deep in his chest. He couldn't explain clearly, it seemed to be annoyed, remorseful, and an inescapable loss.

However, I am a little fortunate and a little clear.Because he heard Mu Chongyu say "he has always been well", and heard Mu Chongyu angrily recount what happened during the drought in Jiangdong that year.

He escaped from his own palace, and indeed there was a reason.Before this, Mu Chongyu did not pretend to be a snake in front of him.The gentle smile that Mu Chongyu once gave her was not fake.

This fact made Xue Jinghong feel extremely complicated.In his last life, he really misunderstood Chongyu.

Mu Chongyu frowned.He was already very close to Yingtou Village, but the gaze fixed on him still refused to leave.

He simply turned around and stood still, and said frankly to the masked young general: "Yingtou Village has arrived, general please go back, Chongyu thank you general for sending me off."

The young general didn't say a word, he only glanced at Mu Chongyu in a vague way, then lowered his eyes, and didn't move or make a sound.

What does this mean?Mu Chongyu was puzzled, and repeated what he had just said.But the other party still didn't listen, and remained silent.

Shen Qing on the side was also anxious, and scolded: "What? Could it be that General Zou has changed his mind? He sent you to forcibly break into my Yingtou village?"

At this time, everyone in Yingtou Village had gone back first, leaving only him and Mu Chongyu behind, and there was no one else around.It would be really bad if this young general had trouble again at this time.

Xue Jinghong was silent for a while, and finally replied in a low voice: "I...can you let me follow Mr. Mu?"

Mu Chongyu and Shen Qing were both taken aback.Shen Qing thought she didn't hear clearly, so she asked again, but was even more shocked.

Mu Chongyu thought for a while, then raised his eyelids to look at him and asked seriously, "Is this what the Emperor of Beiyu wanted, General Zou, or yourself?"

Xue Jinghong smiled wryly in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and said calmly: "No one else asked me to do this. It's me who wants to follow the third master."

He had only one option.Mu Chongyu refused to talk face to face, and he was able to ask Zou Chunzhi's eloquence about the things he was confused about.Therefore, he can only put on such an ugly disguise to get close to Mu Chongyu.

"What's your reason?" Mu Chongyu asked again.

Xue Jinghong couldn't answer this question, because he only had one answer buried deep in his heart, but once he said this answer, it would definitely make Chongyu unhappy.So he couldn't speak.

Unable to speak out, and unwilling to deceive and perfunctory the other party, Xue Jinghong had no choice but to face each other in silence again.

The result, of course, made Mu Chongyu impatient.Mu Chongyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Forgive Mu for not being able to trust you. Please come back, General."

After speaking, he no longer hesitated, turned around and left with Shen Qing.

It was almost late at night, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the cold wind blew by one after another, shaking the dead branches by the roadside to cast shadows of whirling trees.Xue Jinghong stared at Mu Chongyu's back without moving for a long time, until the shadow under him merged with the tree shadow, and then gradually sank into the darkness.

Xue Jinghong stayed outside Yingtou Village for three full days.He wanted to see Mu Chongyu all the time, but he didn't dare let Mu Chongyu find out, so he had to hide quietly in a hidden place.

Sometimes he hides on a twisted willow tree, sometimes he hides on the roof of the main hall of Yingtou Village, walking around cautiously and tremblingly.

But even so, it is not always possible to see him.Yingtou village is very big and there are many people, but Mu Chongyu rarely shows up.

But today, he has not seen Mu Chongyu for a whole day.

A feeling of restlessness crept up densely and made him restless.Xue Jinghong couldn't help but sneaked into Yingtou Village.

The atmosphere in Yingtou Village today seems to be different from that of the past. People's hearts are floating and walking around, as if something happened.

Xue Jinghong's heart sank, he quickly lowered his body, walked along the deserted path, and quietly sneaked into the main room where Mu Chongyu was.

There was a voice of dispute coming from the room, Xue Jinghong carefully identified it, but did not hear Mu Chongyu's voice.After thinking about it, he simply jumped up, flew to the roof, and gently lifted a tile.

There was a faint smell of medicine in the room.Mu Chongyu was out of sight.Standing inside were Shen Qing, Chen Kangsi, several unfamiliar nurses, and an old man with long beard.

The bearded old man's face was flushed at this time, his forehead was sweating, and his voice revealed anxiety and helplessness: "I have said it a hundred times, although the wind and cold he suffered from were minor at the beginning, but you have not cured them for a long time, and now it seems to have become a serious illness." , This is hard to come back! I didn’t treat the old man early, but now I want the old man to be cured within a moment, how is it possible!”

Shen Qing didn't give up, he firmly grabbed the old man's sleeve, gritted his teeth and said: "Then you mean it can't be cured?"

The old man sighed: "Even if it is a serious illness in ordinary life, it will be more or less ominous, depending on the follow-up recuperation and your own good luck. Besides, the climate on this mountain is originally very cold, which is not suitable for patients to live and recuperate. You Yingtou Village does not know Prepare more heaters? And your master's pulse condition is weak, he must have been weak all the time, or he has suffered a serious injury, so it is even more... Difficult. Well, I have no other choice, old man, I can only prescribe it according to the usual practice. Fang Zi, and heals step by step."

Shen Qing's face became darker when he heard this, and he was so annoyed that he almost went crazy.He slapped the desk next to him heavily with one hand, wishing he could die to apologize.

"It's all my fault. If Zou Chun hadn't found out my identity and caused so much trouble for the third master, he wouldn't have exhausted his body to such an extent!" He regretted himself.

Although Mu Chongyu's wind and cold came violently, there were traces to follow.If he hadn't failed to stop Mu Chongyu from going out to hunt, Mu Chongyu wouldn't have caught the cold from the cold.But at the beginning, the disease was not serious. It was the master himself who proposed to use the disease to spread rumors and lure the enemy.Later, Xu Lihui was really fooled, and set up a battle at the foot of Heiyun Mountain. Immediately afterwards, the two armies met, and the battle was fierce.

Thinking about it now, Mu Chongyu must have been enduring his illness at that time.However, he still insisted on arranging troops every day and staying up late every night.

He should have stopped him then, should have forced him to rest!I hate that every time Mu Chongyu appeared in front of their eyes, he acted the same, making them forget that this man, whom they firmly pinned their hope and confidence on, was actually weak and weaker than any of them. Take this burden.

It's too late to regret!

At this moment, they suddenly heard a strange movement, and everyone subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound, only to be surprised to see someone breaking in from outside the door.

As soon as this person entered the door, there was a gust of cold air rushing towards his face, as if he had been on the freezing snow for a long time.

Shen Qing and Chen Kangsi recognized this person, he was the young masked general that night.The two frowned, and were about to question him, but saw him stepping forward first, and asked in a cold voice: "Mr. Mu is seriously ill?"

Then he asked, "Where is he?"

One of the nurses subconsciously pointed to the back room, and Xue Jinghong immediately strode over to Mu Chongyu's bedside.

Mu Chongyu was lying there quietly at this time, as if he didn't hear anything going on outside.He frowned at the center of his brows, his breathing was a little short of breath, two blushes appeared on his usually pale cheeks, and he looked like he had slept extremely restlessly.

Xue Jinghong's heart tightened, and he couldn't help reaching out to touch Mu Chongyu's forehead. He was so shocked by the scalding heat that he immediately retracted his hand.

"Hey, what are you doing?!" Seeing Xue Jinghong's movements, Shen Qing hurriedly shouted, "Stop being rude! Who are you, how dare you barge in!"

Xue Jinghong raised his eyebrows, and ignored Shen Qing's anger: "It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that Mr. Mu is seriously ill right now, and there is no room for a moment's delay!"

He turned around and looked at the long-bearded doctor, and asked in a deep voice: "Doctor, there is really no way to heal him? As you said, the third master is already seriously ill. If you take it easy and slowly heal him, I'm afraid it will be delayed." The longer it takes, the more unbearable the third master will be."

If he lived a new life and faced with the sorrow of losing Mu Chongyu again, then he would rather never have lived.

Seeing the man asked again, the long-bearded doctor heaved a long sigh and had nothing to answer.The wind and cold can be cured, but this master's illness has been dragged on for too long, it has hurt the lungs, and the inflammation-sickness broke out, so the high fever persists, and he is unconscious, which is really dangerous.

Xue Jinghong was even more heartbroken, he got up and rushed to the doctor, and said, "What if I ask someone to deliver the best medicinal materials? Or take him to an extremely warm and livable place to take care of him?"

The long-bearded doctor pondered for a while, then hesitated and said: "If this is the case, it should be better."

Unexpectedly, Shen Qing stood up and objected: "Where are you going to take the third master?" He pushed Xue Jinghong and looked at him coldly: "You sneaked into our Yingtou village without telling, and even made up your own mind to take him away. Third Master, your behavior cannot but be suspicious. How do I know that you are not using this opportunity to kidnap Third Master and blackmail me, Nanyan?"

When Chen Kangsi heard this, he also felt something was wrong, so he beckoned a group of brothers and surrounded the entrance of the main room tightly.

Xue Jinghong took a deep breath.He didn't want to have any conflicts with his subordinates loyal to Chongyu, so he looked at Shen Qing and said seriously: "Don't worry, I will never hurt the third master. If I hurt him a little, you can just kill me. But Before that, you have to let me save him!"

He drew out the only weapon in his waist and handed it to Shen Qing: "If you are worried, just ask all of you brothers to look at me. Hundreds of thousands of you, can't you look down on me, a man with no weapons? Is it?"

"Don't hesitate any longer! It's so cold in Yingtou Village, how can he bear it? Whether we go down the mountain immediately and find an inn or someone else, it's much more convenient to buy medicine and make a fire, isn't it?"

He spoke earnestly and his eyes were burning, Shen Qing was also shaken for a moment, standing on the spot hesitating.

This man is right.Previously, Yingtou village was short of money and food, and the military order of the third master was strict. Where did they ask them to get charcoal stoves?All he had to do was struggle, which aggravated the third master's condition.After a big battle the day before yesterday, there was not much material consumption left, and there was no money to buy any high-quality medicinal materials.

Such a harsh environment is indeed very unfavorable.

Shen Qing clenched her fists, raised her head abruptly, and said as if going all out: "Then I will trouble you!"

Even if this person came out to lure Yingtou Village, he couldn't care less, His Majesty's life is the most important thing!

The author has something to say: ten years counts the time before his rebirth.In addition, although Lao Xue lay on the tree for three days, he also had time to go down the tree to eat, drink and rest.
