The Eight Winds of Rebirth

Gu Xiangtan asked, but Zhao Yuan remained silent, so Gu Xiangtan had to squat down to look for it by himself.

After such a toss, both of them were in a state of embarrassment. Yuebai's clothes not only turned pale gray, but also had a hole on the left and a hole on the right. However, after Gu Xiangtan checked, it was not on Zhao Yuan's body. There were obvious wounds and bloodstains, except for his leg, which was unnaturally tilted to the side and never moved.

"Did it fall?"

Gu Xiangtan rushed over anxiously, but didn't know what to do, looking at Zhao Yuan with guilt and nervousness in his eyes.

Zhao Yuan said, "I bumped into it, it's nothing."

Gu Xiangtan knew him so well, and he knew how strong Zhao Yuan's endurance was. If there was nothing about him, why would he be unable to stand up after sitting down?

"Is there anyone... come here! Come here!" Gu Xiangtan suddenly shouted, his voice was dry and hoarse, but there was a trace of sadness.

Zhao Yuan grabbed Gu Xiangtan who was obviously a little confused: "Stop screaming, it's a waste of energy, I'm fine."

Gu Xiangtan didn't listen.

Zhao Yuan could only repeat sharply: "I'm fine! Look at me!"

Gu Xiangtan was stunned, and looked down at him. It was rare for him to be a little stunned, obviously really frightened.

Seeing his appearance, Zhao Yuan felt as if someone had punched her hard in the heart, she couldn't help but soften her tone: "It's just a broken leg, I left my horse on it, if they find it It will be seen, and it will be found in a short time, and we will all be saved."

Facing Zhao Yuan's calm and peaceful eyebrows, Gu Xiangtan's chaotic thoughts slowly calmed down.

He bent down and extended his hand to Zhao Yuan, and his tone returned to normal: "Don't sit here, it's cold by the water, let's go to the front to avoid the cold together."

Looking at Gu Xiangtan's pretendingly calm face, Zhao Yuan didn't want to let him help her, but she did have some mobility problems, so she hesitated and took his hand in the end.

Gu Xiangtan's strength was weak, and his back was also thin. Zhao Yuan didn't dare to put all his weight on him, but just leaning on him, Gu Xiangtan staggered, and it was Zhao Yuan who stabilized himself in time. Fall down together.

Zhao Yuan said, "Let go, I'll go by myself."

Gu Xiangtan's voice was very firm: "I can do it."

Zhao Yuan didn't say anything in the end, and the two limped and moved under a tall banyan tree more than ten feet away from the edge of the pool.

Gu Xiangtan waited for Zhao Yuan to sit firmly, then squatted down to check his legs. Zhao Yuan didn't struggle and let him roll up his trousers. The joints were broken, and the white skin was stretched like a steamed bun, with a bulging circle, which looked particularly abrupt.

Obviously she was injured, but Zhao Yuan still wanted to comfort Gu Xiangtan: "There is no misplacement, it's not serious."

Gu Xiangtan stood up, looked left and right, and suddenly walked forward: "We need to light a fire."

Zhao Yuan frowned, the terrain in this small valley is unclear, who knows if there will be any hidden dangers, such as poisonous snakes and beasts, etc., he was worried about letting Gu Xiangtan out of sight.

Gu Xiangtan didn't have any scruples, he dragged his clumsy steps towards the distance, and said as he walked, "I saw the branch, it's here."

Zhao Yuan followed him closely all the way, and Gu Xiangtan didn't feel at ease leaving him alone, so he hurried back. Fortunately, the place here is not big, except for a pool in the middle, there are some dry trees on both sides , the most luxuriant one is the one that Zhao Yuan is leaning against, but densely packed wild camellias bloom everywhere, and the scent of flowers comes out one after another.

Gu Xiangtan couldn't hold many things in his hands, so he went back and forth many times, and finally he piled up almost all the firewood.

Panting for breath, Gu Xiangtan picked up the stones on the ground and wanted to start a fire, but his hands were shaking, but after repeated attempts to no avail, the thing in his hand was picked up by Zhao Yuan, and it was set on fire in two or three strokes , and then a jumping fire was ignited in front of the two of them.

Gu Xiangtan took advantage of the flames to tear off two pieces of clean cloth from his inner garment, and used the two boards he picked up to make a simple fixation for Zhao Yuan's legs, so as not to cause serious injuries during activities.

Zhao Yuan watched Gu Xiangtan's movements, he was right in front of her, with her head lowered, the hair on her head was scattered due to the rush just now, part of it was scattered behind her back, and part of it stuck to her cheeks, Zhao Yuan endured it. , didn't reach out to push it away for him.

And Gu Xiangtan's hand, that slender, white and tender hand that should have been flawless, was covered with shocking scars at this moment. Zhao Yuan was startled, and suddenly grabbed the other's wrist and turned his palm over. Its upper skin and flesh were rolled up, and the place near the tiger's mouth was cut by the hard vines due to the long-term hanging and grasping on the edge of the cliff.

Seeing Zhao Yuan's frowning expression, Gu Xiangtan pulled his hand back with some force.

"It's just a flesh injury, just take care of it..."

Zhao Yuan didn't let go.

When Gu Xiangtan raised his head, he met his unhappy expression.

"You can say that..." Zhao Yuan said coldly, he could see Gu Xiangtan's depression, and it was rare for Gu Xiangtan to express everything in his heart on his face, which shows his heart The knot is heavy.

Gu Xiangtan came back to his senses, only then did he realize that his attitude was a bit wrong, he felt guilty for implicating Zhao Yuan, but he couldn't do anything to help in times of crisis, instead it became a burden, and Zhao Yuan would not let the slightest bit of pain go He suffered, and Gu Xiangtan felt that at the critical moment, he still had nothing to repay and was unable to do what he wanted.

But he didn't expect that Zhao Yuan might have the same thoughts as himself. Gu Xiangtan felt distressed when Zhao Yuan was injured, and Zhao Yuan felt distressed just as much when he was injured. Maybe he would blame himself for it He blamed himself for not keeping an eye on Gu Xiangtan. In the end, such resentment and uncomfortable feelings were of no use at all. On the contrary, it was even more disturbing to provoke the two people.

Thinking about it, Gu Xiangtan couldn't help sighing.

"If I had listened to your words and hadn't come out of the palace, maybe it wouldn't be like this..."

Finally, Zhao Yuan couldn't help stretching out her hand, stroked the broken hair from Gu Xiangtan's cheeks and pinned it behind her ears, and then wiped the gray and black on his face with the clean sleeves on the back.

"Those people have planned carefully, and they are waiting to strike tonight. If you don't come out, they will lure you out." At that time, I don't know what dirty tricks they will use.

Gu Xiangtan knew that Zhao Yuan was comforting him, but when it came to this, he remembered.

"Can you guess the history of those people?"

Zhao Yuan nodded, he felt that Gu Xiangtan should have guessed it too: "It seems that Zhao Dian has not lost contact with Nanman."

"I don't know what kind of conditions he promised to achieve this embarrassing deed." Gu Xiangtan gritted his teeth.

"It's nothing more than soldiers, land, wealth, and power.

"It seems that the power of the Three Kings in Daye Palace should not be underestimated." The Southern barbarians were able to take him out as if they were in no one's land. If they really had the heart to kill him, he I don't know how many times I have confessed my fate, Gu Xiangtan thought.

But he also wondered why the two Nanmans let him go so easily. Although they threw him to the edge of the cliff, they didn't even make a move to confirm that he was dead. Gu Xiangtan didn't believe it. The few southern barbarians who are meticulous will make things fall short when they are in the end. Even if Daye is chasing after them, they can directly give themselves two knives before throwing them out of the car, and the effort is not in vain. .

And the behavior of those two people, in Gu Xiangtan's view, seemed...as if they deliberately let him go.

But why?

For a moment, Gu Xiangtan couldn't think of a reason.

Zhao Yuan didn't think it through, but as long as Gu Xiangtan is fine, everything is irrelevant to Zhao Yuan. No matter what tricks the other party uses, no matter how devious or cruel, as long as Gu Xiangtan is not hurt, Zhao Yuan will not be afraid. , he believed that one day, everything would be restored.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuan also opened the skirt of her shirt, pulled two pieces of cloth from the inner garment, took Gu Xiangtan's hand, first carefully cleaned the wound for him, and then seriously gave him a layer of wound. layered up.

Gu Xiangtan felt Zhao Yuan's gentle and careful movements, and the warmth in his heart melted away the coldness of winter, and even the uneasiness and gloom he had just now gradually faded away.

Feeling that the atmosphere was inexplicably sticky, Gu Xiangtan coughed lightly and asked, "Is everything going well tonight?"

Zhao Yuan let out a "hmm".

Gu Xiangtan asked again: "Has General Shenwu returned?"

Zhao Yuan shook her head.

Gu Xiangtan was surprised, Hou Bingchen should have saved Qiu Yilou first and then left, but Zhao Yuan has not returned yet after returning to the mansion?

Hope nothing is wrong.

And thinking of Qiu Yilou, even Zhao Yuan had to sigh, Gu Xiangtan's insight into people's hearts, if it was her, this person would not have let her stay from the beginning.

Gu Xiangtan sensed Zhao Yuan's thoughts, his eyes flashed, he lowered his head and shook his head: "Actually, her thoughts are easy to guess, I think if it wasn't her first time doing something and she felt guilty, then she did it on purpose. She wanted us to see something so obvious, from the very beginning, she didn't intend to do anything." And presumably the final result of the general's death in the previous life could not be decided by Qiu Yilou.

However, Gu Xiangtan still had some things that he did not tell Zhao Yuan. For example, because he had already experienced this incident once, he had more precautions against Qiu Yilou's identity and behavior. Before meeting her, Gu Xiangtan knew that the confidant next to the general believed in Buddhism, so on days like the Lantern Festival, when he went to Shimen Temple, he would definitely meet someone.

That's right, Gu Xiangtan went there only when he expected to see Qiu Yilou on that day, and she was extremely flustered when she asked for a lottery as Gu Xiangtan expected. The task of harming Hou Bingchen was given to her, and Qiu Yilou was afraid, so she went to the temple.

Qiu Yilou's nature is not bad, and she didn't intend to attack Hou Bingchen at all. It was because of this that Gu Xiangtan stepped forward to give her advice, and said those two proverbs, which actually further aroused her uneasiness .

But the night of the lake tour was not arranged by him, but by Qiu Yilou to hook up with Hou Bingchen, but Gu Xiangtan deliberately kicked down the candlestick before leaving, met Qiu Yilou's eyes, and again Let the other party see what he looks like.With the previous encounter at Shimen Temple, I once said a few words to her secret thoughts, and now that Gu Xiangtan appears beside Zhao Yuan and Hou Bingchen, what is my identity, Qiu Yilou only needs to think about it, will know.

Once she understood that Gu Xiangtan was a spiritual Buddha, she would immediately feel panic and doubts like "Has the other party seen through her?"

Gu Xiangtan let Qiu Yilou feel that he had already noticed something, but he didn't let her know how much he knew, but he still kept his face calm, and only did it on the day when Jingulou had tea. A heartfelt consolation.

This is like the story he told Zhao Yuan that he let the snake bite him. He really exposed a bad thing face to face. Introspection, and some even develop resentment towards those who debunk.

But if you go the other way, take advantage of the anxiety and shame in her heart, make indirect remarks from time to time, and make a statement: "I know you can't help yourself, I won't say anything, I just wait for you to wake up and turn around, everything There is still salvation, don’t harm others or yourself, and help the evildoers.” It may not be useful to others, but Gu Xiangtan knows that for Qiu Yilou, for those who doubt themselves and do not want to poison innocent people Man, this method is very feasible.

So while Gu Xiangtan shook Qiu Yilou's heart, he wrote a book to Hou Bingchen and told him everything.

After all, Gu Xiangtan didn’t dare to take any more risks. It would be best if Qiu Yilou’s wiring works successfully. If not, nothing is as important as saving the general’s life first. He should be aware of all these plans, and then we’ll see what he means act.

Fortunately, Hou Bingchen was willing. Thinking about it, he probably also suspected Qiu Yilou in his heart, but just like in his previous life, he was bound by demons, and only needed an excuse to break through.
