A crow in the desert

The people hated the flower pickers deeply, but there was nothing they could do. That's why they were terrified and hated when they saw these strange men from other places.

After hearing this, the crow also knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, and planned to set off on the road when the weather cleared up tomorrow.He put the prepared meals and medicine on the plate, and went back to the room with Li Yue.Li Yue winked at him, stood at the door and coughed loudly, and said, "We're coming in."

The crow wondered, "What are you doing?"

Li Yue said with a smile: "Oh, don't look at evil."

The crow came to his senses and said with a smile, "You look down on people too much." Saying so, he opened the door.I saw Chonghua sitting by the window watching the snow, and Lan Beibei sitting on the bed eating melon seeds.Li Yue stuck out his tongue.The crow said: "Come and eat. Beibei, you eat first, the three of us drank the medicine."

Although this place is in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, the countryside is cold after all, and there is a row of kangs against the walls in the house, which can accommodate three or four big men to sleep.Lan Beibei took off the mattress, set up a square table, and then the four of them sat at the table to arrange the dishes.The snow flakes are flying outside the window, and the house is warm and clean.There are four dishes and one soup on the table. The soup is corn stewed pork ribs, and the dishes are stir-fried spinach, garlic bacon, mapo tofu, and garlic scrambled eggs.The four of them were eating, and the crow told about what happened in the village again, and said to Lan Beibei: "She was bullied by the flower pickers, and she has become a frightened bird. You came here suddenly, no wonder they want to arrest you."

Lan Beibei said: "Since this is the case, it is understandable." After a pause, he continued: "It was not right for me to break into the hospital for no reason."

Li Yue snorted and stuffed the rice into his mouth, thinking: "You are all good people, and I'm the only one who is a bad guy, that's fine.

While eating, the door suddenly rang, and everyone looked out the window, only to see an old woman walking slowly into the yard holding an umbrella, with a medicine box on her shoulder, and she was very obese.The chief security officer and his wife hurried up to meet her and led her to the west wing.

Lan Beibei swallowed the food in her mouth, and said: "This is the Confucian doctor who treats women. When I was beaten by that man during the day, she said, since it was a misunderstanding, then forget it. She is a reasonable person."

Chonghua also nodded and said: "It's really rare for a woman to be familiar with medical skills and to treat women specially."

The crow stayed for a while, and then said, "Strange, strange. The old woman in the kitchen just now said that this female doctor was sent by the county government to treat women who were defiled by flower pickers. Could it be that there is a woman in the west wing? "

The four of them were extremely leisurely and boring, so they made random guesses at the moment.Seeing that the old woman didn't come out for a long time, Crow cleaned up the dishes and was going to take them back to the kitchen. Seeing that Li Yue's cheeks were covered with rice grains, he smiled and wiped him with a handkerchief, and said, "You are not happy, Don't take it out on your stomach."

Li Yue was caught by what he said, he flattened his thin lips, and stood aside with his stomach in his hands.

Crow was busy for a while, then returned to the room, the four of them spread out the mattresses, set up the square table, found a pair of mahjong, and started playing with a splash.Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside, and the four of them poked their heads to look, only to see the door of the west wing opened, and a ray of light came out.The Confucian doctor walked out with a stick, his gait was quite faltering, and a thin female voice came from inside the door: "Mother-in-law, go slowly." She couldn't see her figure, but her figure fell on the ground, vaguely a thin and weak woman with a bun The shoulders are obviously dressed by a girl, but the strange thing is that the belly is swollen high, as if she was pregnant in October.

The four stared at the shadow in a daze, but soon the door of the west wing was closed.Baochang and his wife sent the Confucian doctor out together. The Confucian doctor looked obese, but his steps were steady. He walked out of the courtyard and disappeared into the wind and snow.

Lan Beibei shook her head and said: "Poor, such a flowery girl was ruined by a flower picker, and now she is pregnant, it is even more pitiful."

The crow sat back in its seat, stayed for a while, and said, "This doesn't seem right."

Li Yue shuffled the cards on his own, and snorted: "Who cares what other people do, let's play our game."

The crow remained silent, Chonghua glanced into the snow again, and said, "Something is wrong, the Confucian doctor's footprints are too big."

snow night tracking

The four people saw that the appearance of the Confucian doctor was different, but they were never brave warriors who acted bravely, and seeing the heavy snow outside, they blamed each other: "Brother Chong Hua, go and find out." "The crow is good at following. Him." "Li Yue is the youngest, he should go."

While talking, he was playing mahjong clatteringly.After all, Chonghua was older, seeing that the three of them were all coquettish and lazy, he had to smile wryly: "If I don't go to find out about that woman's details, I will feel uneasy after all." He was about to get up after speaking.Hugged by Lan Beibei, she said: "Don't let them have their tempers. Crow has been with Li Yue for a long time, and he has become cunning."

Li Yue immediately stood up alas, wanting to quarrel with Lan Beibei.Crow's face turned red, and said: "Beibei is right. There are villains in this village, since we have encountered them, how can we just stand by and watch." He put on his clothes and shoes, put on a thin felt cloak, and went out.

Li Yue was inseparable from him, so he had to put on his shoes indiscriminately, and trot out with his mouth pouted.

Although there was no starlight on this night, the sky and fields were covered with white snow. The two had excellent eyesight, and followed the shallow footprints to trace a few streets.I saw the short and fat woman walking crookedly, sometimes coughing a few times, sometimes patting the snowflakes on her shoulders, walked to a very ordinary house, pushed the door in, and closed it behind her back.

Crow and Li Yue looked at each other, then turned over and jumped to the top of the wall, only to see the simple courtyard, with candlelight shining through the half-old windows, it seemed to be a very ordinary old woman's courtyard.After the woman returned to the house, after a while, she staggered out again, holding a bucket in one hand, presumably to boil water.

Li Yue saw that the woman was not unusual at all, so he couldn't help being very impatient, and tugged on the crow's sleeve, urging him to leave quickly.The crow lowered his head and thought for a while, only to see that there was a thin layer of snow on the bluestone-paved courtyard, which was very smooth.He picked up a tile casually and threw it lightly.

I saw that woman's soles of her feet slipped suddenly, and her body suddenly leaned forward. This time she was about to fall like a dog, but unexpectedly, she put one hand on the ground, turned somersault in the air, and stood still smoothly. Neither stooped nor lame, with a straight body and broad shoulders, just like a man.

After the man stood still, he squatted on the ground, as if he was looking for something.

The crow held his breath and didn't dare to move at all. After a while, the man seemed to get nothing, and went back to the house.Crow and Li Yue looked at each other, jumped off the wall lightly, and walked several hundred meters quickly, then gasped for breath, and said: "This thief is really hateful. It seems that he is the flower picker, but he pretends to be a doctor It’s really a good idea to treat those women.”

The two walked back while talking, and the wind and snow were even bigger, flakes of snow sprinkled on their faces and bodies.Crow put his hands into his pockets, and saw that Li Yue was only wearing a gray cloth gown, the skirt was slightly open, and the shoelaces were loose. He was jumping and jumping in the snow, and he didn't know the cold.The crow smiled and said, "I see that your body is recovering."

Li Yue turned around and cupped his hands slightly: "I would also like to thank Mr. Crow for his superb medical skills."

The crow said: "I detoxified you for my own sake. When the poison on the two of us is detoxified, can I discuss something with you?"

He always speaks politely. Although Li Yue has a different temperament from him, he likes his temper very much, so he said with a smile: "I'm sorry that I have troubled you to this extent. I don't dare to obey your orders." No."

The crow thought to himself, when this guy is in a good mood, he is actually very good.Then he said again: "When you return to the Western Regions, don't make enemies with your elder brother, okay?" Seeing that Li Yue was dumbfounded, he hurriedly added: "He has become the king now, you go back and fight against him, What's the point of making such a mess. Besides, both of your brothers are smart and handsome, if you can manage Loulan together, it will definitely make Loulan the most powerful country in the Western Regions."

Li Yue suddenly grabbed a snowball and threw it at him, shouting, "It's snowball fight."

The crow was interrupted by him, thinking that this person would still be childish, so he hurriedly walked a few steps, and was about to continue, when Li Yue threw a few snowballs over him, hitting him on the face and neck.The crow was stunned, realizing that Li Yue's behavior was full of anger. Although he was a little suspicious, he had no choice but to stop talking, grabbed the snow on the ground, and threw it at Li Yue in a ball, beating Li Yue three or two times. Hands up.

Li Yue angrily patted off the snowballs on his body, and said, "Whether I will be his enemy or not, we have to wait for the Gu worms on you and me to get rid of it, otherwise I will drag you, a big oil bottle, even if I want to harm Li Yue." Su, you can't either."

The crow was slightly happy, nodded and said, "You are right."

Li Yue walked a few steps in the snow on his own, suddenly turned to look at him, and asked, "Crow, do you know why I put a Gu on you?"

Crow was taken aback, a little dazed: "Because I happened to pass by your Chinese military tent."

Li Yue shook his head: "This kind of Gu worm is very dangerous, and I won't just lay it down casually. You really don't know why?"

The crow smiled: "I don't know."

Li Yue stared at him, a pair of dark eyes radiating a faint light.After pausing for a moment, Li Yue withdrew his gaze, looking a little dispirited: "Forget it, let's go back."

The crow breathed a sigh of relief, and walked beside him silently.

When the two went back, Lan Beibei and Chonghua were already going to bed.The crow recounted what he had just seen. Both Lan Beibei and Chonghua felt that the flower picker was very hateful, and Chonghua said again: "Don't startle the snake, expose him in front of everyone tomorrow, and hand him over to the government." It's gone." Touched again
