Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 158: Stormy night

As night fell, Bai Xiangu (Jing Niang's entourage) hit hot water in, and Guo Shao sat on a stool to scald his feet. {First episode} That Aunt Bai Xian is not as white as Jing Niang, has freckles on her cheeks, and is a bit older, probably over thirty.

Jingniang opened the bamboo curtain on the back wall and held a stool. Standing on the stool, she reached out and tried the wooden strips nailed on it, and then pulled the bamboo curtain back. She got off the wooden bench, walked around the room, looked down under the bed, then looked up at the roof.

Guo Shao watched her silently doing trivial things, and listened to the whistling of the wind outside, and suddenly said: "Jingniang, thank you." Jingniang gave him a cold look, her expression made people feel arrogant, and she Does not respond.

After a while, she said, "I will sleep here tonight with Bai Xiangu. The upstairs is not attached to the ground, and there is no moisture. Just take a blanket and a quilt. It is not a good thing to live alone when you are out. One more person and one more helper. Wouldn't you have an affair with that lady Li tonight? Isn't it bothering you?"

Guo Shao stunned: "How is it possible?"

Jingniang said: "I don't think it's possible, then Lady Li can't live alone. If you want to have an affair with her in the middle of the night, it's easy to startle her family. If you are discovered, I see how you explain to Li Chuyun."

Guo Shao shook his head and said, "I never wanted to do that."

After the three of them washed up, Jingniang and Bai Xiangu really lay on the floor and slept with them, without taking off their clothes. Guo Shao was helpless, lying on the bed too.

The light was not off, and the light was still weak after lighting two lamps. In an era without electricity, the night is really dark; if it is not in the city, the population density of the suburbs and countryside in this era is only one-tenth of that of modern society, and the night is indeed very deserted.

The sound of wind and the unfamiliar environment made Guo Shao a little insomnia. He felt that his sleep quality was indeed not good. As long as he was not very tired, he could easily stay awake. He tossed and turned like this, staying through the long night.

I don't know how many days have passed, and suddenly I heard a soft click from the rear window. The sound was very soft, and Guo Shao thought it was an animal when he saw the light in the room hit him, so he didn't pay much attention. Unexpectedly, there was another noise immediately, and the "click" sound was not natural at all.

He immediately raised his vigilance. When I turned my head to look, I saw Jingniang and Bai Xiangu also sit up gently, Jingniang's gaze moved to Guo Shao, she pointed her finger at the window, and put her finger to her lips to make a gesture.

Guo Shao's expression shrank, and he nodded slightly when he looked at her eyes.

Jingniang gently picked up a short sword and handed it to Aunt Bai Xiangu, and picked up a long one by herself. This lady is really very vigilant, and she actually put the weapon by her pillow... Guo Shao didn't have any guards today. Although he was in a bad mood in the afternoon, he did not expect that he was a military commander with soldiers, so what else could he get out of the game? Danger.

Guo Shao got up and saw his bow, arrow, knife, and baggage on the chair beside him. Wearing his shirt, he walked gently to the chair, took the belt directly, hung the barrier knife on the belt, and then took the bow and arrow in his hand. He raised his mind, and flashed in his mind the situation where Jing Niang opened the bamboo curtain before going to bed: the window was very high and narrow. Most of the rear windows in this era are like that, just a small opening for ventilation.

It is impossible for one to crawl in through that window.

Guo Shao looked up at the roof, but didn't hear any noise. He pondered for a moment, then looked back at the door and the window beside the door. Reaching out and beckoning, Jingniang also turned his head to see his movements... He pointed his finger at Jingniang and Bai Xiangu, and then pointed at the back of the door.

Jingniang nodded and walked over here slowly. There was almost no sound in the room, and the three of them prepared silently.

Guo Shao picked up a table outside with ease, then turned over and took the table to face the door, while the man was half kneeling behind the table, drew an arrow from the quiver, and waited silently.

The window behind it rang for a while and didn't know what was going on. Guo Shao looked back from time to time. At this moment, there was another noise suddenly, with a "boom"...a smoking wooden barrel fell from the window behind the bamboo curtain!

"Not good!" Guo Shao hurriedly picked up the table and ran towards Jingniang.

"Boom!" With a loud sound, I saw the flames burst into the sky and rushed straight to the roof. In an instant, the tiles and wood rustled down, and there was a chaotic sound of ping-pong-pong, and the white smoke spread quickly. Guo Shao and others were shrouded in thick smoke.

"Cough cough cough..." There was a cough in the gunpowder smoke. Guo Shao held his breath and hurriedly asked, "Are you all right?"

Jingniang's voice said: "I open the door, don't go out first, beware of trouble!"

"Ok...cough!" Guo Shao responded.

But Jingniang and Bai Xiangu coughed for a while and couldn't open the door. "It seems that they were locked from the outside!" Jingniang shouted. The room was filled with gunpowder and smoke. Guo Shao walked over and touched the thick wood plank, and the door opened inward: if you hit it hard, the door panel would be blocked by the door frame and difficult to open.

Guo Shao didn't hit the door, shouted "Be careful of the window", dropped his bow and arrow, hurriedly waved the table and smashed it up with a "clam", smashing it several times, smashing the wood and the window paper on the window. Thick smoke was poured out immediately, and people shouted from outside. Guo Shao paused for a while and threw the table out. He immediately heard a "crack" and a "cuckling" in his heart. There were crossbows outside.

The fire spread in the house. The bed and roof of white smoke, such as dense fog, were already burning. The smoke and heavy smoke made it difficult to breathe. It’s only strange if you don’t get choked to death if you smoke it for a while.

Guo Shao touched a wooden shelf by the door. On the wooden shelf was a few towels and a washbasin. He wet the towels, called Jing Niang, and handed them two wet towels, and he held one to cover his mouth and nose. Then he lifted the wooden frame and threw it out again, with another "pop" or two of the crossbow nailed to the wood. He also threw the stool out.

At this moment, suddenly I heard a loud bang, and the door panel was knocked open from the outside. Luo Mengzi's voice said: "Big Brother! Big Brother!"

Guo Shao was overjoyed and shouted: "Second brother, watch out for the crossbows outside!" He couldn't help it. He ran out from the door first, and then Jingniang and Bai Xiangu also ran out.

The guards immediately surrounded Guo Shao against the wall, and Guo Shao said, "There is a table by the window, used as a wooden shield!" Luo Mengzi found the wooden table with his broken leg on the ground and lifted it up.

Looking back, I saw the fire in the room and on the roof filled with smoke, and the fire became more vigorous when the wind blew. However, the gunpowder smoke was quickly blown away by the wind. Guo Shao looked around and saw that among the crowd roaring out, a few people holding crossbows were shooting from here, but the wind was a little bit sharp, and the crossbow bolt itself The accuracy was not high, the crossbow was inaccurate, and several crossbows that flew in one after another all shot off. Those people let go of a crossbow, and they turned around and ran away.

On Guo Shao's side, a soldier pulled a bow and let out an arrow. Unexpectedly, he screamed and shot a passerby who was running in panic.

"Second brother, you take two people to the stables, and don’t chase them far in the dark! Lu Chengyong, you and the two people go downstairs to stop at the door! Try to stay alive and catch alive!" Guo Shao ordered when he saw this, and said, "Bow. Give me a hand!"

At this moment, I suddenly saw a bow at the door aiming at me. Jingniang was standing in front of Guo Shao. He didn't think about anything for a while and was too late, so he subconsciously pushed Jingniang. With the sound of the "pop" string, Guo Shao only felt a sinking under the collarbone on his left side. He didn't feel anything at all, but soon a sharp pain came. He had no armor on his body, and he had a white coat without even wearing his coat. The arrow pierced the flesh directly, and the blood immediately dyed the white coat red, and the color was very conspicuous.

Everyone was anxious, Jingniang's face turned white all at once.

Guo Shao opened the guard who rushed to the front, staring at the running man who had thrown away his bow and arrow, and used his bow to shoot. The wind is rushing... Guo Shao's eyes widened, enduring the pain and holding his breath, "Pop!" Sure enough, the guy knelt down, as if he had shot him in the thigh.

"Catch people in the past, don't kill!" Guo Shao shouted.

But he saw a man downstairs rushing towards the door. Guo Shao shot it again and knocked it to the ground. After he tried too hard, the pain in his left arm was so weak that he dropped his bow and arrow and said, "Jing Niang, go and see what happened to Li Niang!"

"Aunt Bai Xian, go," Jingniang said, and then tore open Guo Shao's shirt, lifted it up, and said in a strange voice, "The arrow is poisonous."

"Mother!" When Guo Shao looked down, he saw that the skin near the wound was a little black.

Jingniang looked up at the direction of the fire, pulled Guo Shao to the east, and saw a door open, and a man and a woman came out in disorderly clothes. She dragged Guo Shao into it without saying a word.

"What...what do you mean!" the man shouted.

With a "clang" sound, the sword flew out half of the scabbard directly, and with a stroke on the man's neck, it cut through the skin and a stream of blood flowed down. The man was so frightened that he knelt down. Jingniang shouted: "One more word, I want you to win the head!"

Jingniang pulled Guo Shao into the room and found a place to sit down. Her movements were fast and steady, and her face was cold. She first brought a lamp over and put it on the table, then took out a dagger from her arms and put it on the table, looking at Guo Shao's eyes and said: "I'll draw the arrow first, you bear with me... …"

Before the Jingniang spoke, Guo Shao was about to answer. Suddenly he felt a pain in his shoulder and yelled inadvertently: "I|Damn!" Cold sweat broke out on Guo Shao's forehead, his left arm was shaking, his face was pale. Said: "Can you be gentle!"

Jingniang didn't speak, UU reading www.uukanshu.com directly took off her coat, wiped the blood on him, and took the dagger and roasted it on the lamp. Guo Shao hurriedly pulled his shirt out to look at the hole. Fortunately, the clothes were only torn by the arrow, and no piece of cloth was directly broken in the wound. He picked up what he had pulled out again, looked at the **** arrow clusters on it, and asked, "What kind of poison is this?"

Jingniang said: "It should be Arsenic, it can't kill people, and it won't hurt if the blood is released."

Guo Shao asked, "Isn't arsenic to drink?"

Jingniang said: "The easiest thing to find is arsenic. Where can I find other poisons?"

At this time Guo Shao suddenly felt hot under the collarbone, Jingniang buried her mouth and sucked at his wound|Yun. Guo Shao hurriedly pressed her head: "Arsenic is a heavy metal arsenic. You can't die if you see blood. It's dangerous if you eat."

"Hey..." Jingniang spit out and ignored him. RG
