Chapter 39
After Chen Hong finished speaking, he didn't have time to say goodbye to everyone, and he didn't have time to walk through the main entrance, so he jumped over the wall and ran in the direction of the wolf smoke.
Everyone in the Guanyin Temple stood in the courtyard, looking at the two beams of smoke rising from the cloudy sky, they were all overwhelmed and breathless.
Mrs. Fang asked softly, "Ma Engong, where do you think it is?"
"It's Qi County." Uncle Ma's heart was also in a mess, the joy of getting rid of An Ziyuan's gang of killing gods had disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, the four of An Ziyuan were concentrating on fighting the flood because their backs were facing the direction of the wolf smoke, and they did not notice the wolf smoke behind them.
Beacon smoke is an alarm that the army sends out when encountering an enemy attack. Beacon smoke rises one after another, conveying the enemy's situation to a distance.The Chen family will use Wolf Smoke communication, which must have some connection with the army.Lin Ruyu asked, "Third uncle, is there someone in the Chen family serving in the army?"
Uncle Ma nodded, "Chen Jingcheng, who is now the head of the Chen family, came back after serving as a soldier for more than ten years. He brought back a group of people, and Chen Hong was one of them. No one dares to mess with it. This is the first time I've seen this scene in my life... Something must have happened... Hey..."
Sure enough, people cannot be judged by their appearance.Chen Jingcheng, who has a fat body and narrows his eyes when he smiles, doesn't look like a soldier at all?Listening to her third uncle's nagging, Lin Ruyu cheered up, thinking about what to do next.
Mrs. Fang also came back to his senses, and quickly made arrangements, "Since Patriarch Chen can release the smoke, it means that there is still room for recovery. We can't help you now, and we can only find ways to repay you after we get out of trouble. The most important thing now is Shen Xiaoengong's illness. The concubine has already tidied up the room in the east courtyard, Dafu, you help Ma Engong take Shen Xiaoengong there to recuperate. There are fewer of us, so it is more appropriate to live in the same courtyard."
Shen Ge, who drank the medicine and put down his guard because of Anzi's departure, was falling asleep at the moment.Uncle Ma went into the house, wrapped him in a quilt and carried him to the east courtyard, and found that the room vacated by Fang's mother and daughter was actually the inner room of the main landlord. Uncle Ma shook his head quickly, "Madam lives in the east room, and the three of us can live in the wing room."
With that said, he was about to go to the east wing.Fang raised his hand to stop him, "Little benefactor is still sick."
Uncle Ma sent Shen Ge into the Dongli Room, came out and bowed to Fang Shi, and formally introduced, "My name is Ma Qinglin, my ancestral home is Luoshan, Shenzhou, and I am the head of the Anshun Escort Bureau in Wusha Town."
Mrs. Fang raised her hand and bowed deeply, "My concubine, Mrs. Lin Fang of Xuanzhou, pays my respects to my benefactor. For the grace of saving my life, the Lin family should hold a grass knot."
"Mrs. Lin is serious, and Ma didn't do anything. I really can't afford to be your big gift." Uncle Ma took a step back and raised his hand to help him, "Get up quickly, I really can't afford it."
Lin Ruyu stepped forward, held her mother's arm, and said with a smile, "Now that we are under the same roof, it would be too polite to address you as benefactor, wife, or girl. Mother, when my daughter was in Wusha Town, she was the third aunt of Ma. Rescue the siege and save lives, and then boarded the ship under the name of Ma Ermei..."
"Sister-in-law!" Before Lin Ruyu could finish speaking, Uncle Ma took over the words and changed his words. After shouting, his old face couldn't help but blush.Because in terms of age, Fang Shi is obviously much younger than him.
Fang's temperament is not twitchy, and he respected Ma Qinglin, "Third Uncle."
According to the customs of Xuanzhou, after a woman gets married and has children, she will call others after her children.
Now that we have recognized our relatives, it will be much more convenient to talk.Mrs. Fang said, "Third Uncle and Shengzi must be tired after guarding Ge'er all night. You go to Xili for a rest and let Dafu take care of Ge'er."
They have occupied the east room, how can they also occupy the west room.Ma Sanshu hurriedly said, "Little brother slept for half the night last night, and now he is in good spirits. I'll go and carry two beds from the west courtyard. When someone touches them to take refuge, we won't be able to do anything."
It is this reason.
The son was left to guard Shen Ge, and the rest went to the west courtyard to move things.In addition to the two beds, they also took bedding, small stools, tableware and chopsticks for eating and other sundries.Little Aheng was the most diligent, and moved all the small wooden blocks from the small kitchen in the west courtyard over and over again, and placed them neatly in the kitchen in the east courtyard.Then she raised her head and smiled at her sister, Lin Ruyu raised her hand and touched his little head to show her encouragement.
After setting up the bed, Uncle Ma wanted to go down the mountain to retrieve Shen Ge's baggage.Lin Ruyu offered to go with her, picking some useful herbs along the way.
When I came to the foot of the mountain, I saw that the flow of the flood was only a little slower than yesterday, but Haolianzhai a few miles away was already a vast ocean, and the bodies and sundries floating in the water were shocking.Lin Ruyu didn't dare to use it for Shen Ge even if he could swim to it and retrieve the package smoothly. It was soaked in the flood for a day and night.
"Uncle Three..."
"Second sister..."
The two spoke at the same time, Lin Ruyu raised her hand, "Third Uncle, please speak first."
Ma Sanshu said solemnly, "There is not much firewood, rice, oil and salt in the temple, and everything else is easy to handle. We have to find a way to get some salt back."
Lin Ruyu nodded, "Do you know where there is salt near here?"
Uncle Ma pointed in the direction of Hao Lianzhai, "There is a salt well in the northeast of Hao Lianzhai, but I don't know what's going on now."
Even if there is a salt well, he can't get through it until the flood level recovers. Uncle Ma couldn't help but sigh, "Let's go one step at a time. It's better to find herbs first, and the important thing is to subdue Geer's fever."
Lin Ruyu revealed her true intention of following, "Let's go to the place where An Ziyuan and the others fought, maybe we can find medicine for the knife wound."
"Even if they had the medicine, they would have been snatched away by An Ziyuan's entourage long ago." Ma Sanshu said so, but still holding on to a glimmer of hope, he brought Lin Ruyu to the place where the boat was hidden, "You wait outside , Uncle San went in and searched."
Ma Sanshu followed the blood trail into the woods, Lin Ruyu also took a deep breath, and followed bravely.Chen Hong only said that the person was killed by An Ziyuan, but he didn't have time to elaborate.Lin Ruyu had to figure out An Ziyuan's method before he could take precautions.
After entering the woods, he found the corpse of Sanju thrown in the crevice of the stone. Uncle Ma muttered a few words, bent down and raised his hand to pull the corpse out to search for it.
"Third Uncle," Lin Ruyu who followed up reminded, "Be careful of poison."
The blood from the seven orifices on the bodies and faces of the two killers was different from An Juchun's bright red abdomen, and it looked like they were poisoned.
"What are you doing here? What if you get sick from fright..." Ma Sanshu told Lin Ruyu to back off, and then carefully pulled out Sanju's horrific corpse.Finding that there was nothing on Sanju's body, Ma Sanshu secretly turned An Ziyuan over and scolded him several times before saying to Lin Ruyu, "The weapons of these three people may have been thrown around here, let's look for them carefully." ..."
Lin Ruyu, who was standing next to him, responded, but walked to the corpse, raised her head and pulled out the bamboo hairpin from a killer's head.
Because this bamboo hairpin is thicker than the ones used by ordinary men.
