【Grain wattle】turbulent flow

Seeing that the members of the Beggar Clan really didn't come after them, Gu Yuexuan and Jingji walked back into the boat.

The fight outside just now was clearly seen by everyone in the boat.Xiong Tianba's hand never left the handle of the knife, and only now did he relax a little.He said to Gu Yuexuan with emotion: "When Gu Daxia told me not to do anything, I was skeptical, but I didn't expect that old beggar surnamed Li to really listen to Gu Daxia's words, and walked away sensibly."

The thorny sword was sheathed, and he spat coldly: "A group of people who are trying to catch fame. The beggar just saw that there are so many of us, and even if he really moved his hands, he couldn't take advantage of it, so he ran away with his tail between his legs. An unreasonable reputation for benevolence and righteousness."

Gu Yuexuan glanced at the thorns, with a helpless smile on the corner of his mouth, he turned to Xiong Tianba and the others and said, "My junior brother's words are not completely unreasonable. The Beggar Clan has always been closely connected with the imperial court. Even if we are allowed to leave Hangzhou today, we will not It may not always stay out of the matter. According to Hall Master Li, apart from the Beggar Gang, Tiqi has also arranged many other forces, and the danger ahead may be more or less dangerous."

His tone and expression were indifferent, and he did not say a few words to retreat the arrogance of a powerful enemy. These words were intended to remind, but instead of killing the morale of everyone on board, they seemed to give everyone a reassurance.

But seeing Lu Shaolin let out a sigh of relief, he said with a smile, "There are many of them, and there are also many of us. With Brother Gu, Brother Jing and the two elder brothers here, I really am not afraid at all."

Both Xiong Tianba and Shi Yi shouted hello, one hugged Lu Shaolin, the other greeted Gu Yuexuan and Jingji, opened two jars of good wine, sat down in the cabin, and drank heartily.

The awning boat swayed lightly all the way away from the boundary of Hangzhou, and there was no dispute for several hours.

In the twinkling of an eye, dusk was approaching, Xiong Tianba drank a lot, and started snoring with the wine jar in his arms. Shi Yi and Gu Yuexuan sat opposite each other and chatted about martial arts affairs. Jing Zhi felt a little bored, so he walked to the bow again.

When I got outside, I saw Lu Shaolin coming out at some time, standing on the edge of the boat with the wine jar in his arms in a daze.

He just stood facing the wind, with his back straight, the setting sun fell on the water, and reflected on him together with the water light, bringing an indescribably cold feeling.

Thorn walked over, stood behind him with arms crossed, and said abruptly, "I'm standing here because I intend to jump down. Is it okay?"

Lu Shaolin turned his head abruptly, but he didn't stop it for a while, which really made the whole ship shake. After finally standing firm, he said with a wry smile, "Hero Jing, you are really scary."

Thorn said coldly: "Don't really seek death, it will make us waste our efforts."

Watching the sunset together was too windy, so he blew the cool breeze and felt that the turbid air in his chest had dissipated a lot, so he ignored Lu Shaolin and planned to sit down by the cabin and close his eyes for a while.

Unexpectedly, Lu Shaolin said to himself in a low voice: "I will not die casually. Father is no longer alive, and the 120 seven members of the Golden Wind Bodyguard Agency all point to me to live. When father was alive, although he would teach me from time to time , but I have always known that he was messing around with me in his heart. Anyway, with him around, the Escort brand can’t be smashed. I also know that sooner or later, this brand will be carried on my shoulders. It’s just that my father and I both I never thought that this day would come so soon.”

Thorn closed his eyes and listened to him, humming inexplicably.

Lu Shaolin was silent for a moment, then turned around and called him: "Hero Jing, my father...was it very painful when my father left?"

Thorn opened his eyes and looked at him.

Whether it was the moment when he first learned of the death of old bodyguard Lu, or the moment when he realized that his life would be at stake by being chased thousands of miles away, the young man in front of him didn't really panic.Even the thorns have been secretly admired, this Lu Shaolin doesn't know whether he is really hard, or he is extremely tolerant, he can actually show a tenacity that is not commensurate with his foolish appearance.

But right now, the man's naturally raised brows and eyes are slightly drooping, and all the youthful and frivolous looks are suppressed by deep sorrow. I don't know if it was blown by the wind or the setting sun, his eyes are really red.

In the end, no one can be so hard-hearted, and he is just a young man who couldn't send his father away with his own eyes.

Thorn recalled the situation when the head of the old bodyguard Lu was about to leave, the hidden weapon poisoned by Tianyi City passed through his chest, how could it not hurt?In addition, there are still unfulfilled ambitions, and you can't rest in peace until you die. It really can't be called a peaceful life.

However, he couldn't say these words to Lu Shaolin at this time.

After hesitating for a moment, he still said: "It's okay. We promised to send you to Luoyang, why is your father worried?"

After Lu Shaolin finished listening, a trace of gratitude appeared on his face: "Thank you. Hero Jing, brother Weiming is right, you are a very good person."

The hull of the boat just swayed, and Thorn almost couldn't sit still, and said angrily: "What nonsense is that kid talking about?"

Lu Shaolin smiled and said: "Don't worry, there is no bad word, at most it is to say that although Brother Jing, you have left Xiaoyao Valley, you must still care about Master and Senior Brother in your heart, and you are not as cold-blooded as the rumors in the world..."

Thorn stared and interrupted: "It's a bunch of nonsense."

Lu Shaolin sighed softly, and said: "Brother Jing, when my father was around, I felt nothing. Now that he's gone, I start to regret... I have done so many ridiculous things in the past that made him angry. It's a pity that many things I never had another chance."

After he finished speaking, he sighed and shook his head, and walked back to the cabin.

Briar sat alone, watching the last rays of the setting sun sink into the distant water.

As soon as the sun set, the sky and the earth suddenly darkened, as if no one could retain the last bit of warmth.

The wind was still blowing quietly, but this time it couldn't blow away the traces of oppression rising in his chest.

He just sat on the bow of the boat for most of the night, and when he returned, the candles in the cabin were already dimmed, only Shi Yi and the man who was at the stern were still awake.

In the dim moonlight, he immediately saw Gu Yuexuan sitting at the outermost table, with his hands on his knees and his head bowed, wondering if he had also fallen asleep.

He walked to the side of Gu Yuexuan, bent his knees and sat down.

The boat was always wobbly and unsteady in the water, and the two strands of long hair hanging down from the man's cheeks were also shaking slightly. He felt uncomfortable watching it, as if his heart was itching, and he couldn't help but want to reach out and grab the hair. In hand, keep them from dangling in front of your eyes.

In a daze, he really stretched out his hand. Unexpectedly, he stretched out halfway, but was caught in reverse.

Gu Yuexuan grabbed his hand, but she didn't seem to wake up, the palm tightly clasped with thorns and five fingers was cold, as if just soaked in the river water in the cold winter months.

The thorn was gripped by the bone-piercing and hot hand, and I was shocked in my heart.

After clasping his fingers together, he realized that Gu Yuexuan was shaking all the time, not because of the shaking of the ship, but because his whole body was shivering, as if his muscles and bones were creaking.

what on earth is it?Obviously, when he fought with Li Hao tomorrow, everything was as usual.Thorn grabbed Gu Yuexuan's shoulder, trying to wake him up, but he didn't expect that with only a little force, the man fell over and his forehead was pressed against his shoulder.

Thorn looked down, and saw that the person beside him still had his eyes closed, but his brows were tightly furrowed, and the other hand still resting on his knee was clenched into a fist, and the knuckles were already turning white. .

Thorn's heart sank, it's not like he's never seen Gu Yuexuan before, several times in the past when he saw this person injured and returned to the valley, Gu Yuexuan was like this, his face was pale from the pain, and he refused to show it in front of him. little bit.

I'm afraid it's the same for this meeting, this person didn't fall asleep, maybe he fainted from the relapse of the old injury.

He raised his hand, trying to feel for Gu Yuexuan's pulse, but with just a slight movement, the unconscious person grabbed him even tighter.

Immediately afterwards, he heard Gu Yuexuan calling out in a very soft voice: "A Ji..."

When he looked over, the man pursed his lips tightly again and didn't make another sound.

It turned out that he still didn't wake up.

That soft call was actually just a sleepy talk spoken out of distress.

The thorns stopped moving, and felt that Gu Yuexuan had calmed down a little bit, and the wrist holding him was gradually loosened. His heart tugged, and he held that hand back again.

Just clasping the man's hand like this, letting him lean on his shoulder vainly, the pent-up anger in Thorn's heart suddenly turned into powerlessness.

He remembered what Lu Shaolin had just said.

Many things that I thought I didn't care about when I was young and frivolous, only feel so painful after losing them.

What about him?He... is there still time?
