【Grain wattle】turbulent flow

No matter how strong the wind is between the sky and the earth, it cannot blow away the darkness of the night.

Lu Shaolin knelt quietly on the shore, wet from head to toe, staring at the dark water in front of him without blinking.He has maintained this posture for a long time, and it seems that he can continue to stay here for a long time.

His eyes were wide open, dry and astringent by the wind, but he still didn't dare to close them.Just because he closed his eyes, he would see the flames that made the sky and water red.

His elder brother died for him.

Compared with the pain that tore his heart and lungs, his heart was burning with nameless anger.His eldest brother should have laughed heartily on the water, instead of sinking in the cold and piercing water - the one who was hunted down and should have died here was a person, it was him!

This thought made him clenched his fists and almost stood up, jumping into the water.

But a hand was on his shoulder.

That person's hand was also cold, but it was the last bit of warmth left in the world.

Lu Shaolin turned his head abruptly, stretched out his arms and hugged his second brother's back, he hugged him so tightly, he even forgot that each other was still injured, he was shaking so hard that he couldn't stop shaking.

There was river water, blood, and sand on Shi Yi's body, and now, there are still a few drops of warm water stains on him.

After a long time, he raised his hand and rubbed the hair on the top of Lu Shaolin like Xiong Tianba had done many times.

He said, "It's all right."

His throat was also hoarse from the blisters, and his voice was full of tiredness and suppressed pain.But he still wants to say so.

Lu Shaolin's throat tightened, and he almost wanted to cry.

But he couldn't cry anymore.He could only open his mouth wide, let the cold and muddy smell from the bottom of the river rush into his throat, and then panted heavily.But the heaviest pain in this world may not be able to vent through any means.

He could only say over and over again: "...it's me...it's me who's sorry big brother."

Shi Yi pinched the back of his neck with one hand, as if trying to lift him up, and said solemnly: "Shaolin, please remember, brother, he is happy. Do you still remember the day the three of us sent a message swear?"

Lu Shaolin choked with sobs and said, "From then on, we are three brothers, with different surnames but the same fate."

Shi Yi patted the back of his head, sighed and said: "That's right. As long as you are alive and I am alive, big brother will always be with us. Shaolin, no matter what happens in the future, you have to live, you can't Let big brother die in vain, do you understand?"

Lu Shaolin clenched his teeth, except for nodding his head heavily, he couldn't say a word.

The wind was blowing, and the two brothers stood side by side by the water, as if they were going to spend some time with their elder brother.

Until Gu Yuexuan said softly behind him: "My condolences to you two, we still need to enter the city as soon as possible."

After being attacked in the water, they worried that there were other ambushes at the ferry, so they had to swim in the water for a while before reaching a more secluded river bank.After disembarking, Gu Yuexuan was determined to check the surroundings for safety. Thorn would not let him go alone, so he followed closely all the way and searched carefully before turning back.

Fortunately, there was a strong wind tonight, and there were no traces of other Tianyi City killers or Tiqi Dongchang people in the vicinity, and even ordinary people were rare.Even so, they still couldn't guarantee that the killers lurking at the bottom of the water had really been eliminated by Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt, so they still had to leave earlier.

Hearing Gu Yuexuan's words, Shi Yi nodded, let go of Lu Shaolin's shoulders, and said goodbye.

Lu Shaolin was not too surprised.In the end, something happened to Xiong Tianba, and the Haisha gang still needs someone to comfort them. In addition, the ship has been destroyed, people from Tianyi City are watching, and the waterway from Suzhou to Luoyang is no longer safe. Shi Yi will stay again Guarding him, I'm afraid it doesn't make much sense.

And in his heart, he would rather his second brother leave immediately, as far away from these dangers as possible.

However, when it was time to part, he still felt a deep reluctance.

Hearing that Shi Yi was leaving, Gu Yuexuan helped find a nearby fisherman and rented an ordinary fishing boat.

After Shi Yi thanked him, he cupped his hands towards Gu Yuexuan and Thorn, and then tightly held Lu Shaolin's shoulders, then he jumped into the boat alone with his long stick on his back.

He didn't say any more unnecessary words, and he didn't even look back, but the other three people heard his heavy entrustment.

Be sure to arrive safely in Luoyang.

Lu Shaolin looked at Shi Yi's receding back, and his heart suddenly went blank, as if he was the only one left on that long road ahead.

But when Gu Yuexuan looked at him, he had already withdrawn his gaze, raised his hand to wipe off the water on his face, raised his chest, and walked towards Suzhou city first.

Gu Yuexuan swallowed his comforting words, shook his head lightly, and sighed: "Brother Lu has really grown up a lot."

He was about to follow, when someone around him grabbed his forearm.

Thorn looked at him, with a deep groove carved between his brows, and said after a long time: "If... if something similar happens, you are not allowed to do that."

Gu Yuexuan froze for a moment before realizing what he meant.

He has always understood Xiong Tianba's intentions for Lu Shaolin.If he were to change places, as an elder brother, he would definitely make the same choice.

The thorns also understood, however, he refused to let it.

Gu Yuexuan lowered his eyes and was silent for a moment, raised his head and smiled lightly, and said: "Okay."

It seems that as long as the thorns do not give way, he will not die easily.After all, how could he be willing to let Ah Ji experience such a heavy pain?

Thorn seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when he got his promise, and then he put down his hands and walked forward.

Now the night is dark and windy, most of the shops in Suzhou city are closed, from the city gate to the streets are empty, and there are no patrolling officers and soldiers.

The three entered the city smoothly, picked a small inn and went in, planning to stay for one night before making any plans.

The proprietress of the inn warmly greeted them, seeing how embarrassed they were, she curiously asked what happened.

Gu Yuexuan had no choice but to lie that he was a merchant from another place, and when he approached the ferry, the boat was capsized by the strong wind, which made his body covered in water.

The proprietress showed sympathy, and greeted the sleepy waiter, and told him to bring a bowl of hot soup to each of the guests.

Gu Yuexuan couldn't refuse, so she had no choice but to thank her, and walked to a table in the corner with Jing Ji and Lu Shaolin and sat down.

As soon as he sat down, he heard someone coughing lightly beside him.

Gu Yuexuan looked up, and saw a thin old man leaning against the wall, shaking the yellow medicine gourd in his hand, and squinting at him.

Thorn also saw the old man, and immediately grabbed the handle of the knife on his waist, and stared back with full vigilance, for fear that the man would make trouble.

Gu Yuexuan pressed the back of his hand, shook his head, got up and walked to the table next to him, sat down in front of the old man, said hello, "Senior Wen, long time no see."

The old man laughed, stroked his chin with little goatee, and said, "Hero Gu, what wind can blow you to this city of Suzhou?"

Gu Yuexuan glanced at Lu Shaolin, and said vaguely: "My junior brother and I are just passing by to do some small things for a friend."

Lu Shaolin also knew that it was best for them to deceive others during this trip, so he suppressed his emaciated and mournful expression, and said with force: "Brother Gu, I wonder who this senior is?"

Before Gu Yuexuan opened his mouth, the old man waved his hands first and said: "Old man Wen Hujiu is just an old doctor. He is not well-known in the world, and young people must have never heard of it."

As soon as he heard his self-reported family name, Thorn frowned lightly, raised his head and asked, "Are you from the Wen family in Lingnan?"

Wen Hu nodded at nine, and said: "It used to be considered, but I haven't gone back for a long time. Speaking of this, if it wasn't for the help of Gu Daxia half a year ago, he cleaned up those little bastards who committed crimes. Life can be lost after tossing. Daxia Gu is old, but he has the grace to save lives."

When Thorn heard that the old man was really related to the Lingnan incident half a year ago, his heart tightened and he raised his spirits.

Gu Yuexuan shook his head, stepped forward and poured a glass of wine for Wen Hujiu, and poured himself a cup of tea, raised his glass and said: "Senior Wen also has the grace of saving my life. Thanks to Gu for coming back from Lingnan." over seniors."

When Wen Hujiu was mentioned by him, not only was there no color on his face, but he showed a bit of shame: "Hero Gu, I also heard that you stepped down from the position of leader... everything started because of me, and this For half a year, the old man felt really sorry."

Gu Yuexuan's expression remained normal and he said: "I don't care much about the position of the leader of the alliance. I just took this opportunity to travel abroad and feel free and at ease. On the contrary, my heart is much happier. This is a good thing for me. Senior don't need to worry about it."

Wen Hujiu frowned and shook his head, and raised his hand to grab Gu Yuexuan's veins.

Gu Yuexuan hadn't put down the cup, and before he could stop, he caught him straight, and his shoulders stiffened slightly.

The warm pot examined Gu Yuexuan's pulse, his gray eyebrows furrowed tighter and tighter, and even the wrinkles on his face deepened.

After about half a cup of tea, he let out a long sigh and said, "Hero Gu, you now..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Gu Yuexuan withdrew his hand, put his pale wrist back into his sleeve, and said calmly: "With the help of senior genius doctor and my third junior brother, I'm much better now."

Warm Pot Jiu stared at him, his dry thin lips moved slightly, and it took a long time before he said embarrassingly: "Okay. I don't have anything to say, but after you are here, don't be in the rain like this again... At least, let yourself do it again." Live more comfortably."

Gu Yuexuan took a sip of tea and said softly: "Senior, don't worry, the current situation... is really good."

After he finished speaking, he briefly glanced at the thorns, and there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

Wen Hujiu sighed softly, took out a medicine pouch from his sleeve, and handed it to Gu Yuexuan: "I'm ashamed to say, I've been running around for half a year, but I still haven't been able to... Sigh, I wanted to visit Xiaoyao Valley." , It seems that there is no need for this meeting. You take this medicine first, it is not very useful, so just supplement it."

Gu Yuexuan put away the medicine and thanked him: "Thank you for your trouble, senior."

The warm pot Jiuhuzi trembled, stood up while shaking his head, picked up the medicine gourd on crutches, and walked out the door flickeringly.

Gu Yuexuan held the medicine bag and sat in a daze for a while, then saw the proprietress come over and said that the guest room was ready.

He said a few words to the proprietress, and when he turned around, he saw that Lu Shaolin was still standing behind him, and the man with thorns was no longer there.
