Republic of China small businessman

Bai Mingyu carried Xie Jing on his back, and Xie Jing had fallen into a coma at this moment, lying on Bai Mingyu's shoulder, with his eyes closed tightly.

Bai Mingyu looked around the stone tomb, gritted his teeth, and said, "Sir, it's not an option to wait like this. This tomb is the deepest, and I'm afraid the water will pour in. We have to find a way to get out first!"

Huang Mingyou said: "You take Xiaoxie, there are three people on Huda's side, one with Hong girl, one with Liu Ruyi, and the other with Huda, it's just right for Huda to have an arm injury, so he can't use his strength..." He didn't finish his sentence Suddenly, there was another tremor under the stone tomb, and the level of the sky rose a bit, until there was no calf, probably because a large amount of water rushed in from the underground river, and the wall was not as strong as before, and even sporadic stones peeled off. .

The people couldn't move on the stone bed, they could only bend down to avoid the vital points as much as possible. Hu Da approached Huang Mingyou, and hurriedly put his arms on top of Huang Mingyou's head in a critical moment, and took a hit for Mr. Huang.

Still in shock, after calming down a little, Huang Mingyou finished what he had just said in a hoarse voice: "Each of you take one, don't take me, you take these books and go out!"

"No sir!"

"Listen to my arrangement! I'm old and my leg is hurt. It's a burden. If you really think about me, then go out with these books on your back. Let's go!"

……

Xie Jing didn't drink a drop of water for two days and was immersed in the illusion.

He just felt that he had walked a long way, and he had no strength all the time. He fell down because he couldn't hold on, but he was looking for something intermittently. The surrounding wilderness was endless, and he couldn't see the other party, and the anxiety in his heart became stronger and stronger.

He followed many people, walking forward ignorantly, the large troops were not well dressed, ragged robes, even in cold weather, it was not likely that anyone was wearing thicker cotton coats, it was too cold, those wearing The big professor with gold-rimmed glasses didn't care about his dignity anymore. He learned how to twist straw rope from the refugees on the side of the road, tied his cotton robe around his waist, and tied the cuffs with straw rope, trying to keep his body warmer.

Xie Jing numbly followed and walked forward, the other party wanted to cross the river.

He stepped into the water, the river was icy cold, and he walked almost halfway in a daze.

The other party was very happy. People around talked to each other and cheered each other up. There was also an old professor who kept shouting: "Everyone hold on, after passing here, it is the new campus! I can find it, and after the past, it will be the same as before!"

The people around responded and quickened their pace.

The river water gradually increased, Xie Jing felt his feet slipped and almost choked.

Also this time.

Let him wake up suddenly, he stopped in the middle of the river, and suddenly turned his head to look back.

The river was covered with white mist, and it was impossible to see the way he had come.

A familiar and thin figure stood by the river, not moving for a long time.

A pedestrian next to him came over and held Xie Jing's hand, and asked, "Hey, Xiao Xie, we'll be there soon, don't worry! Just follow us, let's go together!"

Xie Jing suddenly broke away from the opponent's hand, and walked back without hesitation. He used to run where the water was shallow, and swam when the water was deep. He suddenly remembered what he had forgotten just now——

He forgot about Master Jiu.

How could he abandon his master and walk alone?

Xie Jing ran fast, avoiding everyone, and ran towards the direction he believed. He reached the river, and climbed up with difficulty holding onto the cold edge. The river beach was muddy, and it was difficult to walk up. He lost one of his shoes. Standing barefoot in the wet and cold soil, embarrassed, just looking up at each other.

Master Jiu stretched out his hand to him, with helplessness and gentleness in his eyes.

Xie Jing rushed over and hugged him without any hesitation, her throat choked up, and the grievance she had endured for a long time could not be vented, so she could only turn it into strength and hugged him tightly.

Master Jiu asked softly, "Why are you back again?"

Xie Jing shook her head, but couldn't say a word, tears kept streaming down her face.

Master Jiu slowly opened his hand, coaxing: "Little Jing'er, be good, be obedient, let go, you should go out."

Xie Jing shook her head and refused to leave.

Master Jiu chuckled, kissed the hot tears in the corner of his eyes, and promised in a deep voice: "Open your eyes, and when you wake up, I will still be by your side."

Xie Jing cried and begged, her voice was intermittent, her fingers trembled so hard, but she could do nothing to get farther and farther away from the other party.He heard someone talking next to his ear, calling his name continuously, from far to near, and finally heard it clearly, and suddenly came back to his senses, his eyes became clear from a blur of red.

The tomb was shaking, and there were more people around. Some people kept shouting and running forward, and some people rushed towards them.

Xie Jing's ears were buzzing, he couldn't hear other people's words clearly, only the words of the person who was protecting him in his arms could be heard clearly in his ears, and the other person's lips were pressed against his ears, his voice was hoarse than before: "It's okay, Jing'er is fine, I'm here..."

On Xie Jing's hand, there was a gap between the nails of a finger. Apart from the blood oozing out, there was also stone powder. What he hugged in the tomb just now was a stone pillow.

Xie Jing murmured.

"what?"

"I want to...buy it in one place..."

The voice was too low, Master Jiu couldn't hear clearly, so he only thought that Xie Jing was afraid, so he comforted him a few times.

Xie Jing slowly raised her hand, wrapped her arms around his neck, hugged him tightly, buried her head in his arms and wept bitterly, but even if someone hugged him, it was still not enough, as if something was missing, and there was a void in her heart.

When his fingers were cut off, he kept begging Master Jiu, no matter how many times the other party asked him, he always said the same thing.

—Don't chase me away.

——My long-cherished wish in this life is to be buried with you in the same grave.

Buffalo Town, the afternoon of the third day of underground palace excavation.

Master Jiu came out of the tomb with Xie Jing in his arms, covered in mud, but luckily he was not seriously injured.

Bai Mingyu, Hu Da and others were rescued one after another. Mr. Huang Mingyou was rushed to a cave. When he was discovered, he was still holding the scroll in his hand high.

The underground palace in Buffalo Town alarmed the military, and also alarmed some university scholars as far away as Peking. Professor Fu of the Archaeological Team of the Institute of History and Philology of the Academia Sinica immediately organized personnel and set up a working group. Difficult archaeological and rescue excavations.Mr. Huang's leg was seriously injured, but he refused to go to the front line. He insisted on staying in Buffalo Town to participate in scientific research activities.

When the underground palace was excavated, the principals of the Bai and Xie families did not participate.

Bai Jiuye called steward Sun Fu from the Shanghai stock market to guard here, and personally took Xie Jing back to Xichuan to recuperate, ignoring all trivial matters.

He hired the best doctor, and he only stayed by Xie Jing's side, never leaving.

The hyphae on Xie Jing's body were quickly pulled out after being exposed to the sun. There was no serious injury on his body, but the nails of ten fingers were split due to too much force, and they were medicated and carefully bandaged.

The doctor told him to rest more, so Master Jiu wrapped him up in a blanket, hugged him in his arms, and basked in the sun by the window.

The Arhat couch was spacious, and the two of them wouldn't be crowded when they lay down. Nine Masters were afraid that he would be bored, so he took a travel book and read it to him softly.

Xie Jing was holding a white jade token in his hand, and the two fingers of his left hand were getting better and could be exposed a little, so he played with the ear pendant with those two fingers.

Master Jiu shook his hand, put it on his lips and kissed it, and said with a smile, "Is it sounding sleepy? I'll change another one, or I'll call the opera troupe to sing for you?"

Xie Jing shook her head, snuggled into his arms, and called him in a low voice.

Master Jiu responded, bowed his head and kissed his hair: "Here."

Xie Jing said something vaguely, buried her head in her arms, and rubbed against him gently.

Master Jiu only heard it when he got closer, with pity in his eyes, he gently squeezed his earrings with his fingers, and promised: "Master will not go anywhere, only stay with you."
