Stunning weapon

() On the quiet path, the moonlight shines lightly, a horse is moving forward quietly, on the horse Mo Xiaochuan is riding behind, Ye Xin is sitting obliquely, in front, Mo Xiaochuan is holding her waist, and she is Leaning weakly on Mo Xiaochuan's chest, his cheeks were flushed, his eyes were half-closed, and his breathing was not even.

Originally, Mo Xiaochuan thought that her illness was already cured, but unexpectedly, she was not completely cured. The rapid travel all the way made her illness worse than before. I want to find a place where there are people, let her have a good rest. ..

However, it may be that these days have been walking in the deep mountains and wilderness, and the distance from the town is too far. Therefore, after walking all day and night, there is still no place to rest.If it were stopped now, it would obviously be even more detrimental to her illness.

Because this place is far away from the water source, and there is not much water left on them, and the herbs have not been brought out.Therefore, Mo Xiaochuan could only take her on the road.The road ahead is vast, but there is no light.

Seeing Ye Xin's weak appearance, Mo Xiaochuan reached out and touched her forehead. It seemed that it was hotter than before. He hurriedly helped her up a little, took out the water bag, unplugged it, brought it to her lips, and said softly: :"Drink of water."

Ye Xin opened his mouth slightly, took a sip, and said softly, "I'm fine."

Mo Xiaochuan shook his head, looked up, and had no intention of approaching the town at all, and said: "Take a break first, your body is weak, and I don't know when we will find a doctor, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on..." . .

Ye Xin raised his face, looked at Mo Xiaochuan, forced a smile, shook his head lightly, and said, "It's okay, I can hold on, you've been tired all day, if you're hungry, get off your horse and eat something."

Mo Xiaochuan moistened a towel with water, wiped Ye Xin's face, and said, "I'm not hungry. If you can hold on, then we'd better hurry and find you a doctor as soon as possible."

Ye Xin wanted to say something more, but he was very dizzy. He leaned his head on Mo Xiaochuan's shoulder, closed his eyes, and said nothing.

Seeing this, Mo Xiaochuan knew that the longer the delay, the less good it would be for her illness. Right now, he had no other choice but to rush on the road as soon as possible. Originally, he took her with him in the hope of helping him to some extent, but now It seems that there is no help, but there is a lot of trouble.

However, Ye Xin's view of Mo Xiaochuan has changed during this period of getting along, but Mo Xiaochuan's view of Ye Xin is not the same.Originally, I thought that a woman who led a group of men with swords to chase and kill her was not a kind person, but after getting along with her, Mo Xiaochuan felt that Ye Xin was actually very simple, and her temperament was relatively gentle. The appearance of the sword pointing straight at the person seems fierce, but that image has gradually faded out of Mo Xiaochuan's image. At this moment, Ye Xin is just a weak woman leaning on her shoulder, weakened by a serious illness.

Facing such a weak girl, Mo Xiaochuan has no reason to leave her like this. What's more, Mo Xiaochuan has no hostility towards her at this moment. A hostile look.

The little black horse was striding forward, making the sound of its hooves colliding with the ground. It was not bumpy on the flat road at the moment, but if it started to run, it was afraid that Ye Xin would not be able to stand the cold wind under the gallop. Going on so slowly, I'm afraid I won't be able to find a place to stay at dawn.

After thinking about it, Mo Xiaochuan took off one sleeve of his gown, wrapped it tightly around Ye Xin, and whispered in her ear, "Let's go faster, if you can't take it , then tell me. Do you know?"

Ye Xin opened his eyes, nodded slightly, seemed a little cold, and tightened his body against Mo Xiaochuan.

Seeing that she was ready, Mo Xiaochuan lightly urged the horse, and the little black horse suddenly sped up and ran quickly on the road.In the past few days, Mo Xiaochuan has been walking the mountain road, intending to find a town, and also coming down from the mountain road. The speed of the little black horse has been restricted all the time. Now it is running completely. It seems to be very happy, and the speed is getting faster and faster. Hurry up, Mo Xiaochuan only felt the gust of wind in his ears.

The wind, which was not strong at first, seemed to be particularly strong under the full speed of the little black horse, and the clothes were "chattered" by the wind.Ye Xin bit her lip and endured it.However, the cool wind blowing on her body still made her shiver uncontrollably, and her body also desperately burrowed into Mo Xiaochuan's arms.

Mo Xiaochuan also had no choice. If he didn't find a place for her to rest as soon as possible at this moment, he was afraid that her condition would get worse, so he could only hug her tighter.

Half an hour passed, and the sky had gradually turned white, which indicated that the sky was about to dawn.And Mo Xiaochuan finally met someone for the first time during these days of fleeing for his life. He saw a man driving a carriage walking slowly in front of him.

Mo Xiaochuan hurriedly urged the horse to come to the front, stopped the horse, and saw that the carriage was very ordinary, and the driver was also an ordinary old man, dressed in common people's clothes, he looked like an ordinary Yan country citizen, Mo Xiaochuan clasped his fists, Said: "Old man, how far is it from the nearest town?"

"Oh?" The old man raised his head and looked at Mo Xiaochuan, only to see that the young man in front of him was wearing very thin clothes, only a shirt, and his coat was wrapped around the body of the woman who was holding him in front of him. The woman seemed to be asleep, leaning against his shoulder, motionless.

Seeing that the old man didn't speak, Mo Xiaochuan looked at himself again, and suddenly said: "I'm really sorry, it's inconvenient to get off the horse, and if I'm rude, please don't blame the old man."

"Isn't that strange?" An older woman got out of the sedan chair at the back, looked Mo Xiaochuan up and down, and said, "Aren't you a local?"

"Ma'am, you have good eyesight." Mo Xiaochuan said politely, "I'm not a local. I came out a few days ago and saw that there were no people on the road, so I wanted to go to the mountains to get some food, but I got lost and wandered in the mountains for half a month. Yu Yu found the way and went down the mountain. It's just that I don't know where I am anymore."

The old woman nodded, looked at Ye Xin, and said, "Is this your wife?"

"Uh..." Mo Xiaochuan was suddenly asked such a question, and it was difficult to answer for a while, but right now, he can't care too much. After all, the difference between men and women in this world is particularly important. The woman who has nothing to do with him is afraid that this old couple will treat him as a monster.

Just when Mo Xiaochuan was about to speak, Ye Xin raised his head and said to the old woman, "Exactly, I'm sick, look..." At this point, she blushed violently and paused. After a while, he said again: "Master, he is in a hurry to find a doctor for me. He has been driving for a day, and the rice water has not entered. Please tell me..."

Mo Xiaochuan looked down at Ye Xin, only to see that she shrank her head in Mo Xiaochuan's clothes in shame, but she dared not meet his eyes.

"It seems that you are just newly married." The old woman smiled and said, "I'm too embarrassed to say it. However, I can't blame you. When this old man and I first got married, we didn't dare to say it. However, he was so cheeky. Thick, not afraid of anything. My little brother is not as happy as a lady to talk to..."

The old man next to him glanced at the old woman and said, "Didn't you see that lady is sick? There are still so many words..." After finishing speaking, he looked up at Mo Xiaochuan and said, "Go forward from here. Turn left when you see the intersection, and then go about ten miles, and you will arrive. However, it is only a small town. I don’t know what disease the little lady is suffering from. If it is serious, there is no cure there. You must go to the city as soon as possible. The city is 150 miles away from here, I'm afraid..."

"She just suffered from the wind and cold, and there is no medicine to treat her. In addition, she is exhausted, so she is so weak. An ordinary doctor should be able to cure her. Thank you, old man and aunt..."

After Mo Xiaochuan finished speaking, he wanted to hurry, but the old woman hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother, wait..." After finishing speaking, he tore a gourd from the old man's waist, handed it up, and said "Before, I had a cold and a severe fever. I washed my face and hands with this wine, and I felt better. However, I don't know if these home remedies will work or not, but they are always harmless. You can take them." Try it for your wife."

Mo Xiaochuan's eyes lit up when he heard the word "wine", and he quickly reached out to take it, thanking him repeatedly.

The old man at the side showed distressed look on his face, but he didn't say anything.

Mo Xiaochuan took out another piece of silver from the package and handed it to the old woman, saying: "Mother, thank you very much. This wine is considered to be bought by me..."

"This can't be accepted. A little wine is nothing when you are away from home. How can I ask for your money..." The old man hastily declined.

But the old woman saw that the money in Mo Xiaochuan's hands was at least five or six taels, which was worth two months' work for her, and she looked greedy, although she didn't say she would take it, she didn't say she wouldn't take it either. I only went to gently grab the old man's clothes.

Mo Xiaochuan saw it in his eyes and didn't mind it. After all, the days when he first arrived in Xiliang were really hard, and he had seen the hardships of these ordinary people. The ones are pretty good too.For ordinary people, seeing this money is considered a huge sum of money, it is natural to be greedy.

Therefore, Mo Xiaochuan threw the money over before the old man could speak.

The old woman had sharp eyesight and quick hands, she couldn't tell that she was an elderly woman at all, she took it as soon as she stretched out her hand, thanked her repeatedly, and said: "Brother, I saw that he was a rich man, he is really generous, but this money is too much It’s not enough to buy such a small amount of wine, even more than ten jars are enough.”

Mo Xiaochuan shook his head, and said: "The old man and the aunt have helped me a lot. This little money is nothing... But, I would like to ask the old man and the aunt to do me another favor."

The old man turned his head and glanced at the old woman, as if to say, look, I don't think this money can be taken for nothing, as long as you are quick.But the old woman ignored the old man and asked, "Sir, what's the matter, tell me."

The address was changed all of a sudden. It seems that money can turn ghosts around. This sentence is really true.The old woman's current expression almost patted her chest and added, everything was on the old body.

Mo Xiaochuan looked interesting, smiled slightly, and said: "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that we came out this time, but we left privately. Our family didn't agree with such a marriage, so I took her out privately. I'm afraid Someone is chasing us, if someone asks about our whereabouts, please do not tell them the old man and the auntie. Thank you in advance, boy..."

"It's just this matter?" The old woman relaxed and said, "Naturally, even if you don't give me the money, I can't do this kind of thing to break up the marriage. Don't worry."

Mo Xiaochuan nodded, and said: "Then I would like to thank you two. I am still in a hurry to find a doctor, so I will take my leave first..."

"My lord, go." The old woman waved her hand.

Mo Xiaochuan urged the horse to gallop forward.

The old man watched Mo Xiaochuan go away, and said to the old woman: "You dare to accept any money, but fortunately, what this young master asked us to do is so simple, if others ask you to do what you can't do, Let's see what you do."

The old woman curled her lips and said: "What's the big deal? If you can't do it, the big deal is to return it to him. Besides, our wine might help him a lot, and they are also rich people. Money is nothing."

"Ah! A woman's opinion." The old man shook his head and said nothing more.

After Mo Xiaochuan ran forward for another stick of incense, he came to the fork in the road that the old woman said, and then chose the road on the left to continue on.At the same time, he slowed down the speed of the horse, thinking in his heart, can this wine really reduce the fever?However, if you think about it carefully, alcohol evaporates much faster than water, and rubbing the alcohol on his forehead should be able to reduce the fever to a certain extent, but Ye Xin is weak at the moment, and he is already a little cold. After drinking, I don't know if she can bear it.Maybe let Ye Xin drink it, it will be better against the cold on his body.Thinking of this, he said to Ye Xin, "Is it cold?"

Ye Xin shook his head lightly and said, "It's okay."

Mo Xiaochuan immediately unplugged the gourd and took a look. There were only two taels of wine in it, which was actually a little less. Moreover, this wine was just a low-quality wine from a country tavern, and it was really not a good wine.

However, smelling the aroma of the wine, Mo Xiaochuan still couldn't help swallowing his saliva. These days made him greedy, so he sniffed hard, and then he put the wine on Ye Xin's lips, saying: " Alcohol can drive away the cold, if you drink less, maybe it won't be so cold."

Smelling the smell of wine, Ye Xin frowned, shook his head slightly, and said, "I can't drink it down, so you should drink it. Haven't you been hungry for a long time?"

"Me?" Mo Xiaochuan coughed lightly, and said, "Who am I, Mo Xiaochuan? How can I be greedy for a little wine? You underestimate me too much. It's good to drink less and warm your body."

Seeing Mo Xiaochuan's expression, Ye Xin hesitated for a moment, put his lips close to the mouth of the wine gourd, took a sip, and then coughed loudly.

Mo Xiaochuan patted her on the back lightly, and said: "Okay, okay, if you really can't drink it, don't drink it. Let's get to the town ahead soon."

Ye Xin frowned, and said, "This stuff is so hard to drink, I don't know why you like it so much. It's so spicy, and a bit sour, it's really hard to swallow."

Mo Xiaochuan said: "This is what you don't know how to appreciate. The pungentness is its place. If it doesn't have this taste, it will be like white water. Who will be greedy for it." After finishing speaking, looking at the wine gourd, he said : "Forget it, if you don't drink it, don't drink it. However, it's not good to waste it." After that, he raised his head, "Gudu!" Just one sip, the wine was gone.

Mo Xiaochuan picked it up in disbelief, turned his mouth down, and turned it down. There was really nothing there, and he couldn't help but look distressed, and said, "It's really few..."

Ye Xin couldn't help smiling, and leaned his head into his arms again, and said, "Just now, how could you say that I escaped with a dead man? How shameful. I thought you couldn't tell I panicked, but I didn't expect that when I told a lie, I didn't even blink my eyes, and my face didn't change."

Mo Xiaochuan said with a smile: "Anyway, you admit that you are my wife. You are not afraid of losing money, so what am I afraid of?"

"You..." Ye Xin was about to reply, when suddenly, his face blushed again, he shook his lips, closed his mouth, leaned gently on Mo Xiaochuan's chest, and stopped talking.

Mo Xiaochuan looked at this girl, and didn't know what she was thinking, but it was not the time to study this right now.Hurrying is the most important thing, so he whispered to Ye Xin, "Sit still, we have to hurry up."

"En!" Ye Xin hummed lightly.

Looking up, he could see the outline of the small town in front of him. Then, Mo Xiaochuan urged his horse to speed up again and headed towards the small town in front of him.
