tired spring return

Still looking at the old town, the long road is long.

Pei Minzhi tossed and turned on the bed, and simply got up early to pack his bags and take care of the horses.When Xie Bo packed up and went out, the two drove out of the city non-stop.

The two took turns to drive, and when they were hungry, they took the dry food they carried with them to satisfy their hunger, and drove northward at high speed, as if they wanted to make up for all the delays in the past few days.Xie Bo secretly rejoiced that their itinerary was finally on the right track, but he couldn't relax in his heart.

Pei Minzhi was already young and mature, with a delicate mind, but these days he was even more taciturn.Ever since he searched and found nothing that night, Xie Bo never heard him mention Brother Yun's child again.

After doing this for nearly a whole day, the roadside scenery became more and more desolate, and finally a gurgling brook appeared in the field of vision.Pei Minzhi and Xie Bo decided to get out of the car and rest for a while.When he got closer, he found a young man dressed as a woodcutter squatting beside the stream, washing something in the stream with his sleeves rolled up.Following the boy's movements, something dark red spread out from the originally clear water.Pei Minzhi couldn't help but take a closer look, it was blood!And the source of the continuously spreading bloodstains turned out to be something he was so familiar with!

Fold willow wooden bracelets!

"Where did you get this bracelet?"

The young man seemed startled by his serious tone, and hastily clenched the things in his hands tightly.

"This... this was given to me by someone else!"

"Don't be afraid, did a brother who is older than you give it to you?"

Seeing that Pei Minzhi was gentle and elegant, the young man hesitated for a moment and said, "I didn't see the man's face clearly. He was lying there covered in blood. I thought he was a dead man..."

Pei Minzhi was terrified when he heard that.

"Where did you see him?" The voice subconsciously became frosty.

The young man pointed uncomfortably at the barren mountain behind him, and said, "It's at the foot of the mountain over there. When I came back from cutting firewood, I saw two people lying on the side of the road, as if they had rolled down a hill. I thought they were The two were already dead, so I couldn't help but go over and take a look. I didn't expect that the one in white was still alive, but he was speechless..."

"and then?"

"Then, then he gestured to me a few times, and I thought it meant that he asked me to take the bracelet on his wrist, and then help him untie the rope on his hands. Only then did I realize that his hands and feet were tied up, see I blamed the poor man, so I did as he said, and left him with water and dry food before leaving. But he was seriously injured, and I don’t know if he can still live.”

As he was talking, the handsome young man lost all color on his face, his lips were pale, but his eyes slowly turned red.He stared sadly at the bracelet in his hand, not moving for a long time.Seeing this situation, the heart of the firewood chopping boy unconsciously rose, fearing that the treasure he had acquired so hard would be snatched away by the person in front of him, so he hurriedly stuffed it into his bosom.

"That's all I know, if you don't believe me, go and see for yourself!" After finishing speaking, he hurriedly picked up the firewood and ran away.

Pei Minzhi was filled with remorse, and holding his breath, he found the foot of the mountain.Sure enough, as the woodcutter said, a short, fat man in black fell into a pool of blood not far from the mountain road, his limbs were twisted in a strange posture, and he had already passed away.Pei Minzhi followed the winding blood trail to a half-sized stone cave not far away, and Brother Yun was curled up against the stone wall motionless.

His whole body was filthy, he couldn't tell whether it was mud or blood, and his clothes were scratched by branches and stones.Only a pale and picturesque face was unstained by mortal dust, as clear as ever, obviously carefully wiped with water.

Pei Minzhi felt very sad seeing this scene, because he suddenly understood his mind.

It was the last effort he could make to meet death with dignity.

Brother Yun's body couldn't see any vitality, Pei Minzhi felt cold all over his body, and in a panic, he didn't dare to go forward for a while.Xie Bo who staggered over was even more confused when he saw Brother Yun who looked like this.

"Young Master, Yun, Brother Yun, he..."

"Xie Bo, I blamed him wrongly. I was the one who was only concerned about complaining, annoyed and disappointed, and gave up looking for him early on. I was the one who caused him..."

Pei Minzhi, who has always been calm and calm, seldom loses his composure like this.

It's just that before the words fell, Brother Yun, who had been unresponsive all this time, seemed to notice something, and slowly opened his eyes.The wet eyelashes fluttered slightly, and the eyes were fully opened, but the eyes seemed to be out of focus, quite loose.

Pei Minzhi suddenly stepped forward, eager to shake the slender, scarred hand hanging by her side as a way to comfort her.The raised finger abruptly withdrew in mid-air, giving up the moment before it was about to touch the pale skin.Because Brother Yun's extreme fear of being touched by others that day seems to have become his nightmare, and he still has lingering fears every time he recalls it.

"Brother Yun!"

Brother Yun didn't know whether he was dead or alive, and he couldn't tell the difference between dream and reality, but he just tried his best to focus his blurred vision on the face of the person in front of him.After another moment of ups and downs in the chaotic thoughts, he finally remembered this gentle and jade-like face.

Unexpectedly, it was this person who appeared in front of him when he was about to die. This person had nothing to do with him, but he was the person who treated him best in this life.However, in just a few days of getting along with him, what I left for him was all ugly and unbearable.

Sad and ridiculous.

He forced a half smile and said sorry with his lips.

He fell into the abyss of darkness again.

Immediately with the help of Xie Bo, Pei Minzhi carefully carried the man on his back and carried him into the carriage.Because Brother Yun's injury was urgent and he couldn't bear the bumps of the vehicle, he had to find a place to settle down as soon as possible and receive medical treatment.

Pei Minzhi and Xie Bo had no choice but to give up their original travel plan again, deviated from the original main road with the carriage, and turned into a small road leading to the wilderness at the fork.Traveling all the way in a hurry, I finally found a small piece of houses when the sun was setting, which seemed to be a small village.

Knowing that he had asked Xie Bo to take care of Brother Yun in the car, Pei Min jumped out of the carriage and went to the village for help.Despite the anxiety in his heart, he still did not act blindly. After a quick observation, Pei Minzhi chose a family with a relatively tidy house and an orderly courtyard.It's not for living comfortably, but for energy and time saving. After all, a more affluent family can have more hope and be more able to accept them, the old and the young, plus a seriously injured person.

As expected, it was Uncle Zheng, the head of the village who opened the door.

Uncle Zheng also had the demeanor of a village head, he simply asked a few reasons and then agreed.Not only did they vacate a room for them to rest and greet meals, but when they heard that someone was injured, they also specially brought out the hemostatic herbs for trauma at home for them to use.

However, when he saw the bloody and bloody Brother Yun with his own eyes, he still couldn't help showing worry.

Pei Min knew that he couldn't care about other things, and was full of Yun Ge'er's injury, so he kept asking the village chief if there was a doctor living here.

Uncle Zheng shook his head and sighed: "Hey, to tell you the truth, our place suffers because there are no doctors. Because the location is so remote that even traveling doctors seldom come here. When old and young are sick, they can only use some herbs indiscriminately and resign themselves to their fate.

It's not that the old man doesn't want to keep you, it's not pleasant to say, the old man sees that the son's injury is dangerous, if he doesn't want to delay his illness, the old man advises the young man to make another plan as soon as possible. "

"Thank you for reminding me all the time. It's not our intention to bother you here. Please allow me to check his injury before making arrangements."

"My lord, do you know how to see a doctor?"

"It's just a little superficial understanding."

"Okay, okay, just stay here."

Pei Minzhi was busy checking Brother Yun's injuries, but he didn't realize that the eyes of Uncle Zheng, who was watching from the side, slowly showed joy.
