Chang'an Fu
Chapter 16 The Woman by the Lotus Leaf Pond
"I heard from Xiao Cheng that you have a divine bird, it must be him." Just as he was talking, the whirlwind had already stopped at Li Yu's feet
"It's Whirlwind, come to Whirlwind, say hello to my third brother Gu" Said Whirlwind seemed to understand, stared at him, tilted his head as if looking at him
"It seems reasonable for the Huns to regard the eagle as a divine bird." Looking at the spirituality of this bird, Gu Huai sighed
"Xiaofeng, go to the child's house to have a look, is there someone guarding outside?" After speaking, Xuanfeng flew out immediately
"Let's wait for the news"
"Go back, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, you will get tired after looking at it for a long time. You should go back and take your medicine. Xiaocheng medicine should be cured by now."
Before returning to the cave, Li Yu saw Xiao Cheng standing there holding a bowl of medicine and watching, and when he saw Li Yu and Gu Huai walking over, he immediately walked over
"Young Master Li, you are back!"
"What are you standing here looking at?" Li Yu asked
"I just made the medicine and saw that you were not here, so I stood here waiting for you to come back"
Li Yu wanted to laugh seeing him like that. Is this person so simple and honest? "Since we are back, let's go in."
"Medicine!" Xiao Cheng shouted after Li Yu
Ah, when Li Yu turned around and saw the black medicine in Xiao Cheng's hand that exuded an unpleasant smell, he felt a little nauseous, and he hesitated when he took the medicine in his hand
"Uh, I feel like I'm much better. I didn't have a problem when I went out just now. I should not take this medicine."
"no"
"no"
As soon as the words came out, the two people standing next to each other said in unison
"But..." Before Li Yu could say anything more, Gu Huai took the medicine bowl from Xiao Cheng and handed it to Li Yu
"Drink"
Li Yu looked at the two of them hesitantly, and saw that he couldn't drink the medicine, so he obediently took the medicine bowl that Gu Huai handed over, put it up to his nose and smelled it, pretending to be nauseous, remembering when he was a child Refusing to take the medicine, the concubine mother told him that she would not feel the bitter taste if she pinched her nose and drank it in one breath. In the end, she pinched her nose, poured the medicine into her mouth, and swallowed it all without stopping for a moment. inside
After drinking the medicine, Li Yu's face twisted into a ball. Before he could slow down, the familiar cry of the whirlwind came from outside. Li Yu and others hurried to the outside of the cave, and the whirlwind stopped on Li Yu's shoulder. There was still a piece of paper in his paws. Li Yu took the note and frowned. He didn't know whether it was because the bitter taste lingering in his mouth hadn't gone away or because of the content of the note.
"What's wrong?" Gu Huai asked when he saw that Li Yu's expression was not right.
Li Yu handed the note to Gu Huai, Gu Huai took it and saw that there were only two short words on the note: "Help me"
"Is it Zhang Peng?"
Li Yu nodded
"Is it credible? Could it be a trap?" asked Xiao Cheng on the side
"I don't know, but whether it is or not, the child saved us, I should go and see anyway"
Seeing what he said, Gu Huai was silent for a while, "Since this is the case, let's go to see the situation tonight, just to observe Zhang Chengyou's current actions. I think he will protect his son no matter what."
Xiao Cheng nodded at the side, and the three of them reached a consensus and decided to act tomorrow night, but before that, they need to prepare something
"Xiao Cheng, you are good at making incense, so make more psychedelic incense, can you do it?" Li Yu asked
"Yes, there are a lot of raw materials around here for me to use"
"Then it couldn't be better. Brother Gu San, Guo Ye, and I will take on the role of force. Then Xiao Cheng will be in charge of using incense to stun them. If they can't be stunned, we will solve it."
"If you can avoid the use of force, try to avoid it." Gu Huai thought of Li Yu's injury yesterday, "Just stand behind me when the time comes."
"Naturally, my injured body will rely on Gu Sangege's protection." Li Yu is also quite good at climbing poles
"Hey, speaking of Guo Ye, what about others, I don't think I saw him when I woke up." Li Yu only thought of Guo Ye at this moment
Gu Huai rolled his eyes at him calmly, "He took the few people you rescued before to find a new place to live. They are unarmed and not suitable for following us. It's better to stay in a safe place "
"Oh" Li Yu just remembered that he forgot to ask how the group of people brought out by Xiao Cheng was doing now, but hearing Gu Huai's words made him feel relieved.
"Then act, Guo will come back later, let's help Xiao Cheng collect spices, it will be faster."
"No need, Mr. Li, you are injured, you should take a good rest, and let Guo Ye go with me when the time comes." Hearing what Li Yu said, Xiao Cheng hastily declined
Seeing that Xiao Cheng insisted that Li Yu didn't say anything anymore, it was a tacit consent
"Then I'll go to Guo Ye now, and go with him, I think he should come back." Xiao Cheng said and prepared to leave, "Oh, yes, Mr. Li, you and Mr. Gu will settle the dinner later. , I forgot to tell you that I caught a few rabbits and put them outside the cave." After finishing speaking, Xiao Cheng left
"Are you hungry? I'll go roast a rabbit for you." Gu Huai seemed to be getting late, and Li Yu didn't seem to have time to eat after taking the medicine.
Speaking of eating, Li Yu touched his shriveled stomach, as if he was hungry, but when he remembered the scene where Gu Huai almost burned the mountain outside the ruined temple last time, Li Yu felt that it would be better to do it himself
"Let me roast it for you." Li Yu said, and suddenly felt that it would hurt Gu Huai's enthusiasm, so he changed the way of saying, "I know a method that can roast meat fragrant and tender, but Before that, I need Brother Gu San to find some bigger leaves for me outside, any leaves will do, I only have one request, that is not poisonous."
"Okay." Gu Huai immediately stood up and prepared to go to find Ye Zi, "Then wait for me for a while."
After Gu Huai left, Li Yu didn't stay idle. He picked up his saber and peeled off the rabbit's skin. He is not a knight and swordsman, so naturally he doesn't have any special belief in his saber. , anyway, as long as the need arises, his sword can be used as both a weapon and a tool
It seems that some mud is needed. He looked at the soil around him, and it seemed that it was not suitable. It seemed that he had to go to the cave to find it, so he threw the rabbit aside and went down the mountain to find if there was any mud available.
He searched and searched but couldn't find any suitable mud. The soil there was too dry. It seemed that he had to go to a place with water to find it. So Li Yu changed the direction to look for it and went around the back of the cave. Li Yu Looking at the surrounding scene, he seriously suspected that the rabbit could not be eaten today. Compared with the cave in front of the cave, the scene behind it seemed to be in another world, and it was a bit too desolate. Even so, Li Yu still decided to go to the cave again. Go forward, if you still can't find it, then roast those two rabbits properly
I don't know if it's because it's almost summer or because it's too desolate here, Li Yu felt a little stuffy, and when he was about to give up, he suddenly felt a gust of cool wind, which made Li Yu who was sweating all over With a flick, it seemed that there was either a forest or a river in front of him. Thinking of this, Li Yu quickened his pace and walked forward
Sure enough, Li Yu saw a pond full of lotus leaves. Li Yu was overjoyed. It seemed that not only the mud had fallen, but also the leaves. There was a sharp female voice
"What do I want your silver to do? You want lotus leaf and tell me why?"
There are still people here?Before Li Yu could be surprised, something even more shocking happened. He searched for his voice and saw that the person standing opposite the woman was actually Gu Huai, and Gu Huai who was standing there blushed. After being trained like this, I can't even say a word when I stand there
"What's the matter?" Seeing this, Li Yu hurried forward to make a rescue
The woman heard the voice and turned around to see Li Yu, "Why is there another one? Are you also here to pick lotus leaves?"
Although the woman's clothes are a bit crude, with patches on many places, not to mention hair accessories, which are simply wrapped and tied together with cloth strips, but the clothes are very clean and will not make people look uncomfortable. And the face is also beautiful, but there is a slightly fierce style between the words
"Oh, I think someone has already picked the lotus leaves. I'm here to find some mud." Li Yu pointed to the lotus leaves in Gu Huai's hand
"So you two are together, who are you and why did you come to pick my lotus leaves?" the woman said impatiently
"Girl, I explained to you before, because we want to roast rabbits, so we need to borrow the lotus leaves from your lake."
"Why do you need lotus leaves for roasted rabbits?" The woman said with disbelief, "Besides, there are so many bad guys here, why should I trust you?"
"Girl, don't believe me, I can guarantee that if you eat my baked rabbit, you will never forget it," Li Yu said confidently
"Where's the mud? It's also used to roast rabbits?" The woman let go of her previous guardedness a little bit. Hearing what Li Yu said, she suddenly felt a little hungry. She originally planned to go out to find something to eat, but unfortunately she didn't find it. I met Gu Huai
"Girl, if you don't believe me, you can go and have a look with us. I'll bake it for you to eat." Li Yu is familiar with himself, and he is ready to grab other girls as soon as he comes up. Gu Huai, who is standing by the side, looks at him coldly.
"What are you pulling? It's not like I can't walk myself." The woman avoided Li Yu's outstretched hand and walked forward by herself
Li Yu remembered that he hadn't gone to dig the mud yet, and immediately shouted, "Brother Gu San, wait for me."
Gu Huai glanced at him and ignored him, then turned around and left, Li Yu was wondering, what did he do to offend him, and quickly finished digging to catch up with Gu Huai
"are you angry"
"no"
Even so, Li Yu still felt that he should have provoked Gu Huai somewhere, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out. He didn't seem to do anything.
All the way without talking, the three of them came to the cave, and the woman looked around the cave.
"I didn't expect there to be such a hidden cave here." As she said that, she found a random place and sat down. "Do you live here?"
"It's Whirlwind, come to Whirlwind, say hello to my third brother Gu" Said Whirlwind seemed to understand, stared at him, tilted his head as if looking at him
"It seems reasonable for the Huns to regard the eagle as a divine bird." Looking at the spirituality of this bird, Gu Huai sighed
"Xiaofeng, go to the child's house to have a look, is there someone guarding outside?" After speaking, Xuanfeng flew out immediately
