Zhuang Zhiyi

The mountain road was rugged and bumpy, and when the few people finally reached the bottom of the mountain, the setting sun was about to set, and the faint moon was already hanging in the sky.

"Mr. Yin, the wooden house not far away is the old man's home." The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead and pointed to Yin Yuhan.

Yin Yuhan raised his head and looked in the direction of the old man, and saw a small wooden house at the foot of the isolated mountain in the direction pointed by the old man.He scanned the surroundings with heavy eyes, and there was only this one resident within a few miles, and asked in a somewhat strange but flat tone: "Old Man Xiao, is yours the only one within a few miles?"

"Well, yes! There is only the old man's family at the foot of the mountain. But there are a few other families along the stream not far away. The old man often goes up the mountain to collect herbs, so he simply left his house at the foot of the mountain." The old man said kindly.

Yin Yuhan nodded in agreement and said, "The old man has been living here?"

"I have lived at the foot of this mountain for nearly 20 years."

Yin Yuhan looked down at An'er who was sleeping peacefully in his arms with a smile, and said softly, "An'er's parents live with you?"

"To tell the truth, my lord, there are only An'er and I in the family. I have no children." The old man said calmly.

Yin Yuhan frowned slightly and couldn't help asking: "Then Xiao An'er..."

The old man sighed, looked at An'er with heartache, paused and said, "Oh, I picked up An'er by the river bank. I don't know which cruel parent abandoned this poor child. Sigh... ..." The old man shook his head sadly.

It was Yin Pojun who was walking behind silently, when he heard the words, he suddenly raised his eyes to look at the cute little person in Yin Yuhan's arms, looking at the innocent sleeping face, a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes.Then he slowly turned his gaze to the old man in front of him, and there was a trace of nostalgia in his eyes when he was gone.

Yin Yuhan, who was walking in front, raised his eyebrows a little strangely and looked at the distracted person beside him.Looking down at the little man in his arms, he said to the old man, "But An'er is also lucky, you gave him a stable home, didn't you?!"

The old man looked at Yin Yuhan gratefully and shook his head, looked at An'er fondly and comfortedly and said, "It was An'er who gave me a home."

After walking for a while, the old man pushed aside the wooden fence in front of him, and several people walked into the house. The old man said, "Please, two gentlemen." He patted the little man still in Yin Yuhan's arms and called out, "An'er, come home!" I'm waking up soon."

The little man in a daze slowly opened his eyes, rubbed his eyes with his hands and scanned the people in front of him, and said in a childlike voice: "Grandpa, An'er is hungry."

The old man smiled dotingly: "Okay, grandpa will cook. Do you want An'er to help grandpa?"

The little boy slowly got down from Yin Yuhan's arms, took the old man's hand and said, "Well, An'er helps grandpa cook."

The old man held An'er's little hand in his, and said kindly to Yu Han and Po Jun: "You two young masters, please sit down casually first, this old man will cook right away."

"Excuse me, old man, can the next two help?"

"No, no need. It's good for the two young masters to sit down and rest first. This old man can be alone. The two young masters should drink some water first! The meal will be ready soon." The old man hurriedly postponed.

After watching the old man lead the little boy away, Yin Yuhan signaled to the people beside him and said: "Pojun, go and help!"

Yin Pojun nodded knowingly: "Yes, this subordinate will go now."

After Yin Pojun retreated respectfully, he raised the water glass on the table and took a sip, looked around the plain and simple room, then got up and walked into the courtyard.Standing quietly in the courtyard, looking at the furnishings in the courtyard and the racks for drying medicines, for some reason, there is always a feeling of deja vu.

There is a medicine garden on the left side of the small courtyard. Yin Yuhan walked to the medicine garden and casually glanced at the meticulously cared for herbs.As he was turning around, he was caught by the small bamboo tubes hanging on the plants on the left side of the medicine garden.Yin Yuhan looked at those simple bamboo tubes, frowned and thought about it.He remembered that there seemed to be such a bamboo tube in Lei Yan's medicine garden in the village.

Yin Yuhan leaned over and picked up a small bamboo tube, only to see that there was still some water in the tube.He suddenly figured it out, the old man must be collecting dew.Yin Yuhan shook his head, and gently hung the bamboo tube back to its original place.He straightened up slowly, looked up to the horizon.There was some worry and helplessness in his eyes.I don't know what's the current situation in Zhuangnai?Has the second brother's poison been cured?

Soon, a noise disturbed his contemplation, and when he turned around, Yin Pojun and the others had already come out of the kitchen carrying food.Yin Yuhan collected his thoughts, and walked back to the hut with a few people.

After eating dinner in a friendly manner, Yin Pojun helped the old man clean up.Yin Yuhan coaxed Xiao An'er to play.At this time, the scene is also harmonious and peaceful.Soon the old man and Yin Pojun returned to the hut.The old man said kindly to Yin Yuhan: "Young Master Yin, I have tidied up the room for you two. Please come with me."

"Thank you old man." Yin Yuhan thanked him.

Follow the old man to another room.The old man pushed open the door, and said to the two apologetically, "The house is a bit shabby, but the old man has already cleaned the house, so please spend the night carefully, both young masters!"

"Uncle Xiao, it's the juniors who interrupted you. You can keep me, the juniors should thank you." Yin Yuhan said.

"If it wasn't for the young master's rescue, how could An'er stand here unscathed! The old man should be thanking the young master. It's just that the humble house is simple, and there is really nothing to repay the young master. I am ashamed!" Yin Yuhan said.

"Young master, it's getting late. I won't bother you two anymore. If you need anything, just call me. Po Jun knows where everything is, and if you need it, you can get it yourself. Don't see outsiders. .” The old man looked at the two of them kindly.

"Thank you, old man, you should go to bed earlier!"

After watching the old man lead the child away, the two entered the house.Yin Yuhan surrounded the simple house.A semi-large room with a wooden bed, a table and two chairs.Simple couldn't be simpler, it's clear at a glance.He raised his eyebrows secretly.

Yin Pojun frowned slightly looking at such a room.Some hesitantly called out to him: "Master..."

Yin Yuhan turned around, looked at the worried face of the person beside him, but said nothing, just went to the table and lit the oil lamp on the table, and said to the person behind him: "Make the bed! Tonight Let’s take a rest overnight and start on the road tomorrow.”

"Yes, master." Yin Pojun responded and straightened the mattress quickly.Then he bowed to the person sitting at the table: "Master, the subordinates go down and fetch some water for the master."

Yin Yuhan nodded, watching Yin Pojun step back, got up and took the two people's baggage, and took out a small cloth bag from it.After a while, Yin Pojun came in with a basin of water.Gently put the water basin on the table, and said to the person beside him: "Master, I have traveled for a day, please make it tonight, master, just wipe off your body!"

Yin Yuhan nodded, raised his hand to untie his clothes, took the handkerchief he handed over, and wiped his face and front body lightly.Then handed the handkerchief to Yin Pojun and said, "Wipe my back for me."

"Yes." Yin Pojun took the towel and wiped it carefully for Yin Yuhan.Then, while helping Yin Yuhan change his clothes, he said: "Master, this subordinate is going to get some hot water for Master to soak his feet."

"En." After watching Yin Yuhan nod, Yin Pojun picked up the wooden basin and bowed back.After a while, another pot of steaming water was brought in, and it was gently placed under Yin Yuhan's feet.Half-kneeling down, he took off Yin Yuhan's shoes and socks.Put Yin Yuhan's feet into the water slowly and tentatively, and massage his feet carefully.

Yin Yuhan sat on the edge of the bed, his tired feet were soaked in warm water, and he immediately relaxed a lot. Coupled with the appropriate strength massage on the acupuncture points, it made people feel more comfortable.He lowered his eyes and silently looked at the person under him who was massaging himself carefully.Look at the firm eyes and respectful figure.For some reason, he was suddenly satisfied and liked it.More affirmation of the decision made at the beginning.

Let him serve him, unknowingly slowly remove those cold appearances, and asked softly: "What do you find about Old Uncle Xiao?"

Yin Pojun raised his eyes, looked at Yin Yuhan for a while and said slowly: "Back to the master, the subordinates didn't find anything. From the observation of the subordinates, the old man does not know martial arts." He hesitated and continued: " But in the kitchen, the old man saw that I was injured..."

Yin Yuhan nodded and said: "Of course you can tell that you have been injured if you know medical skills. But he is just an ordinary old man who knows medical skills. Don't worry too much."

"Yes" Yin Pojun answered.After a while, seeing that the water temperature had cooled down, he gently lifted Yin Yuhan's feet, and carefully wiped off the water drops.Then he removed the water basin, stood up straight and said to the human being on the bed: "Master, this subordinate brings me a pot of hot water."

Yin Yuhan looked at the person standing up and said to him: "Well, there is no need. You go and take the medicine first, and I put the medicine on the table. When you come back, I will refill the medicine."

Yin Pojun was slightly stunned, looked at Yin Yuhan gratefully and said, "Yes, thank you master." He picked up the medicine bottle that was specially placed on the table, and took a pill.Then he bent over, picked up the wooden basin and retreated.Before returning to the house, he quickly wiped his body under the moonlight in the courtyard, and then walked back to the house silently.

Picking up another small medicine bottle on the table, he looked up at the person who was sitting on the bed watching him.Embarrassed, she slowly walked towards the bed, half-kneeled down, lowered her head and lowered her eyes, and unbuttoned her clothes.

Yin Yuhan took the medicine bottle handed over, and looked at the scarred body.In fact, the other wounds on his body are almost healed, but the sword wound on the back is still not healed.Somewhat helplessly, he pulled out the medicine bottle, and gently applied the medicated oil on the bruised back, and did not stop until the medicated oil was absorbed.

Yin Pojun slowly turned around, bowed to Yin Yuhan and said, "Thank you, master." Quickly fastened his belt, and stood up respectfully: "Master, please rest!"

The person who lay down quietly watched Yin Pojun turn off the light.But when he found the person who had turned off the lights, he turned around and walked towards the door. He was stunned for a moment and asked in doubt, "Where are you going?"

Yin Pojun was also taken aback, turned around and lowered his head and said to him: "This subordinate is keeping watch for the master."

Hearing this, Yin Yuhan frowned, and said coldly: "Nothing will happen here." Seeing that the person was still there, he said in a low voice: "Come and sleep! As I said, the situation is special now, so don't worry about those things." rule."

Yin Pojun was slightly stunned for a while before slowly responding: "Yes, master." Slowly climbed onto the bed that was not too big but not too small, and lay down beside Yin Yuhan.

Seeing the person lying down, Yin Yuhan handed over the quilt on his body.He got up and took out another quilt that was spread under his body, turned over and closed his eyes without saying a word.

Yin Pojun lay cautiously beside him, until he heard a burst of even breathing from his side, then he slowly relaxed and fell asleep gradually.

I spent most of the night peacefully like this.He thought that the night would pass like this, but he didn't want to be asleep. Suddenly, he was awakened by a dangerous breath beside him.

Yin Pojun quickly sat up and rolled out of bed, looking warily at the person on the other side of the bed.In the dark night, hearing the low panting sounds from the other side of the bed, I broke out in a cold sweat.While cautiously moving towards the table, he whispered worriedly: "Master... are you alright?"
