Ten thousand people think gloom is reborn

Under the mask is a completely unfamiliar face. Although handsome, it is covered with large and small scars, not only knife wounds, but also wounds that look like bitten by wild animals.

I didn't expect Shaobu's true appearance to be like this. The prince once said that Xiaoxi can imitate me.

Expressions and movements can be imitated, but human faces cannot, unless a human skin mask is placed on one's own face.I have seen this kind of disguise technique in some strange books.

Shaubu frowned immediately because I took the mask off. When he bent down to pick up the mask, I grabbed him again.I held his face in my hands and stroked the junction of his face and neck with my fingers.

No.

There is no trace of a human skin mask at all.

This face is Schaub's real face, and so are the injuries on his face.

I flicked my fingers and took a few steps back.It turns out that the dream I had was really a dream, probably because I was sick and confused and dreamed of Lin Chongtan.Lin Chongtan died a long time ago, if Shaobu is like Lin Chongtan again, it will not be Lin Chongtan.

"Sorry, I..." I paused, I didn't know what to explain.

Schaub seemed to be used to others looking at him with surprised eyes, and put the mask back on his face in a normal way.Because I snatched his mask, some of the food in his hand turned out.He put the mask back on his face, went outside for a meal and came back.

During this meal, I didn't sneak a glimpse of Schaub again. Now that I have confirmed that he is not Lin Chongtan, I am not interested in his face under the mask.

He didn't want to take off the mask in front of me, probably because of the injury on his face, no wonder he didn't want to take off the mask even when he fell asleep.I was still thinking that if it was a red rash, why it is not long on the neck, but on the hands and face.

Since I saw Schaub's face under the mask, I have been more polite to him unconsciously.But I was also anxious, I wanted to go back to the capital.

I am very worried about Concubine Zhuang and the emperor.

It rained continuously for three days, and I felt like the restless dart team downstairs.For the past three days, Schaub and I ate and lived together, but he would still avoid me before eating, and he never took a mask when he fell asleep.

Compared with my anxiety, Schaub was obviously much more contented. He would go out occasionally for a while, and when he came back every day, his sleeves and shoulders were covered with water.

On the fourth day, I heard a big news from downstairs - Heti was washed away by continuous torrential rain, all the houses near Heti were destroyed, and countless refugees were added overnight.

In addition, the nearby farmland is now soaked in water, and the food has been destroyed.I heard people downstairs complaining that the food in the inn was about to run out, and it was getting more and more expensive.

Having said that, I couldn't help but look at the food on the table in the room.

Since I live in this inn, the snacks and pastries in the room are exquisite and delicious, and there are fresh fruits every day.I guess that this Shabu is not an ordinary warrior in the northern kingdom. Judging from his food and clothing, he may be the same as Chatai, either a prince of the northern kingdom or a nobleman.

There was endless quarreling downstairs, and it didn't take long for them to fight.Seeing that their expressions became more and more fierce, I thought about it and closed the window.

People living in this inn are getting more and more restless, which is not a good sign.At night, I saw Schaub packing up his things, but it was still raining outside.

"Are you leaving today?" I asked him.

He nodded.

I asked him again, "You want to take me back to the Northland?"

I thought Schaub would not answer me this time, but he actually said it this time.

"No, go to the capital." He said.

I looked at him incredulously, "Really?"

Schaub turned his head and glanced at me. He has been wearing a mask, and I can only observe him from his eyes.I feel like I'm in a daze, and I always feel that his eyes are very similar to Lin Chongtan's.

"I'm going to trade you and your father for three cities. I don't know if he will or not." Schaub said.

I heard that there were three cities, and it occurred to me that the people of the Northern Kingdom wanted to take back the cities they had ceded to us in the Bei Dynasty.Originally, it was also because I was kidnapped by Chatai that the people of Beiguo ceded the city. Now the people of Beiguo want to send me back and want to exchange the city.

To be honest, I don't think the emperor will agree to this deal, but no matter what, I can't break it, I have to go back to the capital.

Thinking of this, I slightly turned my face away, "My father has always loved me, so he will definitely agree."

Schaub didn't comment, and handed me the veiled cap, "Put it on, by the way, there is one thing I'm curious about, who locked you in the box?"

I didn't answer this question. Schaub waited for a while but didn't get my answer. The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward.He didn't speak anymore, and only woke me up coldly in the middle of the night.

Schaub was going to leave in the middle of the night. I didn't quite understand why he left in such a hurry, especially when it was still raining outside. But when we got out of the room, I understood.

The inn should be quiet late at night, but I heard screams from the innermost part on the east side. The sound was very short and disappeared in a flash, as if someone had passed out or died.

Schaub also heard the sound. He grabbed my wrist and pulled me down the stairs on the other side.When we went down, there were small and chaotic footsteps from the direction where the screams came from before.

The dart cart was trapped in the inn. Although they didn't disclose what was in the dart cart, it should be valuables.In the past few days, I heard some problems, the river bank collapsed, the farmland was flooded, the food in the inn became more and more expensive day by day, and money flowed out like water.I'm afraid that someone has moved his mind and wanted to kill people and rob goods.

In the prosperous age, no one would dare to kill people and loot goods in the inn. I thought of the refugees I saw in the capital. Today, I am afraid that chaos will really happen.

I didn't dare to vent my breath, and followed Schaub down the stairs, but I didn't expect to bump into a few people head-on.Those people were masked with black cloth, holding machetes, and looked us over quickly. One of them said: "This masked boy brings a lot of food into the room every day. He must be rich. Let's do it!"

They didn't seem ready to kill us, but wanted us to hand over the money. Schaub kicked away the men approaching us and pulled the machete he had hidden earlier from his pack.

After several fights, those people seemed to realize that they couldn't take advantage of it. In addition, there were other movements upstairs, and those people attacked more fiercely. One of them grabbed something and threw it at us. I couldn't dodge in time, my face was covered with a paste, and my eyes suddenly felt sharp pain.

I can't keep my eyes open!

I only heard the sound of ping-pong-pong in my ears, and I was flustered. I grabbed the handrail of the stairs and walked up backwards, but within a few steps, someone grabbed my arm.I instinctively pushed and hit the opponent, but when I heard Schaub's voice, I stopped quickly.

"It's me, can't you open your eyes?"

I nodded.

His voice seemed to be more angry, "Go."

I couldn't see, and I was stumbling, so I hadn't walked a few steps before I was hugged by someone.I can't care so much at this time, I just cover my eyes.

pain.

I felt that I was being carried into a carriage. Schaub said something in a low voice, probably not to me. He used the Northland language.Then, my hand covering my eyes was gently pulled away.

"Don't move around, I'll wash your eyes with water now." Schaub said.

I hummed and turned my face up.The cold water flowed through my eyes, and after a while, I felt the water-soaked silk handkerchief wipe my eyes with a very gentle force.After wiping, I tried to open my eyes, and the pain was no longer so painful, but I saw things hazy, and I could only see the outline of Schaub.

Schaub should have noticed my strangeness, he held my face with his fingers, and said in a low voice, "Can't you see clearly?"

At that moment, I was taken aback because his voice sounded like Lin Chongtan's.

"I can't see very clearly." I think I must have heard wrong.

His hands covered my eyes, "Then close your eyes first." He said something outside again, and then I felt the carriage I was in move.

Schaub found a doctor. After carefully looking at my eyes, the doctor said that I was sprinkled with scorpion powder. This powder can cure rheumatism if taken orally, but if it gets into the eyes, it will cause blindness for a short time. After all, the powder is poisonous.

"But it's not a big deal. During this period of time, don't see the light, cover your eyes, take the detoxification pill twice in the morning and evening, and take this medicine patch every night before going to bed, and put it on your eyes to sleep. After a while, your eyes will see I see you."

While I was relieved by the doctor's words, I also began to feel troubled.

Schaub on the side asked, "Doctor, can you not see even the light of a candle?"

"Yes, it's best not to see the light of the candle, lest your eyes not recover. During this time, don't open your eyes and let your brother take care of you."

The second half of the doctor's sentence was addressed to me. I was just about to refute that Schaub was not my brother, but Schaub had already picked up the conversation, "Doctor, get the medicine."

My eyes were covered with a layer of cloth. I don't know what the material of the cloth was, but it was soft to the touch.The invisible days are too difficult for me. Not only do I need help for meals, but I also need help from Schaub for bathing and washing.

We have been on the road for the past few days, and have not entered the city to stay in an inn. We only use the water of lakes and streams for bathing.Fortunately, it is summer, and it doesn't feel cold.It's just that after I can't see, I'm more afraid of water, and I'm always afraid of sinking in when I take a bath.

I rubbed myself with bath beans, keeping an eye out for the stream.The bath bean was slippery. I didn't hold it for a while, and it slipped out of my hand.I hurriedly followed the water to touch it, but I didn't touch the bath beans, but the bare skin.

It's Schaub.

He is also taking a bath.

He said he was on his way and didn't have time to wash them one by one.

I thought that he and I were both men, so it shouldn’t be a problem. There are not so many people who like men in this world, and even if Schaub likes men, he may not think that I fall into his eyes.

When my fingertip touched Schaub, I quickly turned the direction of the touch, but this time it was Schaub.This time before I could withdraw my hand, he grabbed my hand first.

"What are you touching?" He said lightly.

I told the truth: "The bath beans fell."

Schaub seemed to be helping me find the bath beans, I heard the sound of running water, but after a while, he said that my piece of bath beans had been washed away.

"Then what should I do? I haven't finished washing it yet." I hesitated for a while, and said hesitantly, "You, can you lend me your piece?"

Schaub rejected me, "You have lost seven bath beans in the past few days."

I'm speechless, but I don't think it's entirely my fault, I can't see it, and naturally I can't pick up the bath beans if they fall.Schaub refused to lend me bath beans, so I could only wash myself with water and prepare to go ashore and get dressed.

But when I stood up, my foot stepped on a pebble, I couldn't stand firmly, and fell down.The stream is not too deep, but it sinks into the water in an instant, which reminds me of bad things.I became extremely flustered, and when I found out that someone was coming to rescue me, I couldn't help wrapping my hands and feet around him, seeing him as a life-saving straw, but I forgot that Schaub and I were both naked at this time.
