He was reborn and I wasn't!

It was hot, his body was very hot, he seemed to be still sleeping on the well-heated kang, and a wave of heat was warmly engulfing his body.

His head was also heavy, and his eyes were hazy.

Shang Ning was actually half asleep and half awake, but his head was dull, which made him want to just continue to sleep.

He felt as if he was in a dream, the whole person was sitting on the boat swaying with the waves on the water, and there was an uncomfortable, somewhat foul smell in his nostrils.

Shang Ning woke up in a daze.

He opened his eyes, but he could only see darkness around him.Shang Ning's head was a little unconscious for a moment, facing the unfamiliar darkness, he panicked, and almost broke out without thinking: "Senior brother!"

His voice was hoarse due to fever, and although he thought he had exhausted all his strength, it sounded like a kitten meowing to others.

A male voice next to him said: "Your senior brother is not here."

The voice sounded a little old, he had never heard it before, and now Shang Ning was a little confused, so he asked in a daze, "Senior brother is not here? Where did the senior brother go?"

The voice seemed to laugh, and said, "You should ask where you are?"

Shang Ning asked in confusion, "Then where am I?"

The voice said: "You are in the prison car. We were captured by the officials. We were going to Antai City, but we were robbed by the bandits halfway. Now we are going to the bandits den."

When Shang Ning heard this, there was only one thought in his mind, wouldn't he be separated from his senior brother?

Thinking of this, Shang Ning couldn't continue to be drowsy, he shook his head, trying to wake up his consciousness.Shang Ning struggled to think about what the voice from the side had said to him before, and only then did he barely understand his situation.

He frowned in the dark and said: "I have to find a way to get out, brother must be worried."

The person next to him said: "You are so sick, how do you go out?" Then the person said: "The old man just checked your pulse. Your condition is also interesting. It seems to be the wind and cold caused by the old cold poison. , it's menacing, but it's not dangerous. If it weren't for the current situation, this old man really wants to show you a good look."

Shang Ning didn't listen to the other party much, he sat up with effort.I don't know if it's because of his illness, but his mind is spinning extremely slowly. Although he has a fever, his condition is bad, and his future is uncertain, Shang Ning is not at all anxious, as if he is sure that his senior brother will come to rescue him.

He opened his eyes, faced the darkness and asked, "Why is it so dark?"

The people beside him said: "Because we are going to the bandits' lair. These bandits, afraid that we would remember the way and escape, covered the prison car with a big black cloth cover."

Shang Ning didn't speak anymore, the car seemed to have stopped somewhere after walking for so long.

He faintly heard the rustling of people outside.One said: "Let's leave them here first."

Another person said: "It's fine, anyway, I can't escape."

The previous man said: "Then remove the cloth and give them something to eat later, so as not to starve to death."

Another person responded.

His sight suddenly lit up.

Shang Ning's eyes were stabbed by the sudden light, and he almost shed tears.He hurriedly blocked it with his hands, and then blinked, only then did he see clearly that he was in a prison car.

The prison cart was huge, made of thick wood, with a gap in the middle just enough for a hand to pass through.Shang Ning was leaning on the edge of the prison car, and when he turned his head, he could see people crowded together in front of him.

His place is a bit more spacious, but it is also because the people in front are afraid that he will have some contagious disease, and they are afraid that they will be implicated, so they dare not approach him.Shang Ning looked around through the gaps between the logs. The place where they stopped was like a big woodshed, dark and dilapidated, with nothing but some straw.There were a few big men standing outside the car talking, their voices were low, and they didn't give them a few glances from the beginning to the end. Only two guards were left behind, and the rest left.

They didn't know how long they had been walking before, the sky outside had already darkened, and the light inside the firewood house was even more dim.The two remaining men lit a dim candle on their side.

Through the candlelight, Shang Ning realized that the clothes he was wearing were not his own, the color was old and the size was obviously too big.When he lowered his head to check, he heard the voice on the side who was talking to him just now: "When you were caught in the car before, those people didn't even give you clothes. You are still hot, so the old man will put them on for you." own clothes."

Shang Ning turned his head and looked over, only then did he see clearly that an old man with a tuft of beard was looking at him who was very close to him.Although the old man had gray temples, his eyes were piercing. He was not as embarrassed and frightened as the others in the prison car, but he looked calm and relaxed.

Shang Ning said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you."

The old man smiled and said: "No thanks, but I see someone over there has been watching you, why don't you see if he knows you?"

After hearing this, Shang Ning turned his head following his gaze, and at a glance saw a person in the opposite prison car with long eyebrows and red lips. In the flickering candlelight, his eyes were shining brightly, looking at him with affection.

Brother!

Although Shang Ning's body and brain were very sluggish due to the fever, he sat up immediately.He rushed to the wooden fence and was about to speak, but Jiang Yan smiled lightly, raised his index finger to his mouth, and glanced at the guard in front of him.

Shang Ning nodded knowingly, and stopped talking.

He leaned on the wooden fence to look at his senior brother, and saw a figure still close to his senior brother.Shang Ning took a closer look, it was the little flower from before.

His heart suddenly felt tight.

Shang Ning didn't know if it was because he was sick, but now he especially wanted to be taken care of by his senior brother, whether it was Jiang Yan hugging him, or approaching him to say comforting words to him.In short, Shang Ning desperately wanted his senior brother to be by his side, preferably lying on his senior brother's lap and letting Jiang Yan's fingertips run through his hair.In this way, all his pain will be relieved, and he will even fall comfortably into a dark and sweet dream.

It's a pity that this position was taken by that little beggar.

Shang Ning's eyes were dark.

Jiang Yan looked at his little junior brother for a while, and found that although he didn't know whose clothes he was wearing, it was ragged and messy, but at least he was not only wearing an inner jacket as he imagined, which made him a little relieved.He took a closer look at Shang Ning, and saw that his junior brother's usually dark eyes were a little misty, and he didn't seem to be in good spirits, as if he was still ill, so he felt anxious again.

With his junior brother like this, he must return to him as soon as possible, and he can rest assured only by letting him receive treatment.

After a while, the sky was completely dark, except for the moonlight coming in from the window in the empty room, only the guard's area was lit by a little candle.

Someone came to deliver food to the guards, and Jiang Yan saw a little fire in the distance the moment the door opened.

It should be a bonfire, and the bandits must be celebrating.Sure enough, the two guards who took the meal complained about the excitement in front of them while eating, but they couldn't go.

This is a great opportunity!

The footsteps of people outside gradually faded away, and finally there was no sound at all. Jiang Yan glanced at his little junior brother.

Shang Ning was watching his senior brother's every move almost greedily, and now he followed his senior brother's gaze quickly, only to realize that the drunk from before was still lying beside him!

This drunk man is also very powerful, he has drunk a lot of wine, and he still hasn't woken up for a whole day.Seeing his senior brother nodding his head, Shang Ning took out the money bag from his body, immediately understood what he meant, and hurriedly pushed the drunk beside him.

Jiang Yan thought to himself that his junior brother and he had a tacit understanding.He turned the money bag down, thinking that fortunately the apprentice in the pharmacy found a pile of copper coins for him.He took out one, saw the movement of his wrist, and stretched out his hand to hit it, and the two diners fell down on the table without a sound.

There was a small exclamation around, but everyone quickly shut up.Some people don't know what happened yet, but those who see clearly already understand that they seem to be able to escape.

The drunk man seemed to have woken up, looked around twice with drunken eyes, and finally met Jiang Yan's eyes.He has traveled the rivers and lakes for many years and encountered countless situations, and he understood the current situation almost immediately.Therefore, without any hesitation, he pulled out the long knife from his waist, held it in his hand, and passed through the gap between the wood.

The blade of the knife was harsh, and a small section of the front end was broken, turning into a flat cut.It bears the moonlight coming in through the window, and the brilliance on the blade flows for a while.The drunk man flipped his wrist and cut off the lock of the prison car with a single blow.

It was silent, there were no iron filings flying around, and there was no thrilling sound when the iron chain was cut off, only the moonlight was deflected by the knife, and it flickered in people's eyes.

Such a sharp knife, such profound inner strength, and such exquisite martial arts!

Jiang Yan's eyes widened. This, this is Yuehua Dao, and this drunk is Yan Xing, a swordsman!
