Happy time is always so short, Ruan Xianbei did not expect that such a day would come so suddenly.
That night, Lan Zhao ran down the mountain eagerly to tell Ruan Xianbei that Xi'er was about to die.
Only two days have passed since Elder Jin said that time is running out.
"Holy girl! Miss Lan Zhao said there is something urgent!" Yun Zhi said outside the door.
Ruan Xianbei was about to go to sleep, but when he heard it, he immediately stood up, put on his clothes and left. He opened the door and asked as he walked: "What's going on? So sudden?"
Yun Zhi came to report the news first. Ruan Xianbei left the house and Lan Zhao just entered the yard. The night was not too hot, but she didn't look relaxed. The sweaty hair on her forehead stuck to her cheeks, and she looked anxious and out of breath. .
"Elder Jin gave Xi'er some new medicine yesterday. She was always fine, and there was a tendency to get better. Unexpectedly, tonight... Elder Jin couldn't control it. I came to you quickly. , I want Qianniang to be prepared to see her for the last time..."
Ruan Xianbei saw that Lan Zhao's hair was messy and her clothes were damaged. It was hard to imagine what Xi'er was like.
She immediately ordered: "Acai goes to inform Qianniang, and Azhi goes to call Shen Xuan and Suisui."
She had already dragged Lan Zhao a few miles away, and the voice came back again: "By the way, go and inform my brother!"
Lanterns were lit in the yard, and a tense atmosphere lingered in everyone's mind.
"Zhaozhao, just wait outside and don't come in." Ruan Xianbei ordered him seriously when he arrived at Elder Jin's door and entered the courtyard alone.
There was a mess inside and outside the house after a fight. Xi'er was tied up with strips of cloth on the stone bed and struggled constantly. Her mouth was blocked but she still screamed shrilly from her throat. Elder Jin was pacing back and forth beside him in despair.
"What's going on? What's wrong? You're obviously fine?" Elder Jin scratched his hair irritably. When he saw Ruan Xianbei coming, he seemed to have seen his savior. Update without error@
"Saint! Saint! I succeeded! But I failed again... I don't know why she suddenly became like this. I am definitely successful..."
Elder Jin was talking nonsense. He grabbed Ruan Xianbei's arm eagerly and was completely unaware of the blood marks on his face. He must have been caught by Xi'er.
"Lao Jin! Calm down!" Ruan Xianbei called to him, "What do you mean by success?"
"Holy girl, I mixed your blood to make an antidote. After she took it yesterday, her whole state returned to normal. It was very normal - it was very quiet during the day, and tonight When I checked her, I didn’t know why it was like this. Why?”
Her blood? Ruan Xianbei frowned as he listened to Elder Jin's words, why was it her blood again? Could it be that the blood flowing in her body is panda blood? Contains a hundred poisons to cure all diseases? Everyone wants her blood?
At this moment, there was a tearing sound.
Ruan Xianbei turned around and looked over. Xi'er was no longer in bed.
She was startled and raised her head alertly, only to find that Xi'er had jumped onto the rafter and was staring straight at her.
"Back off."
As soon as she said this, Xi'er jumped down from the rafters and launched an attack!
To be precise, it should be that she burst out with murderous intent towards Elder Jin behind her.
The two faced each other with palms. Xi'er was knocked back a few steps by her. Ruan Xianbei was even more shocked. Xi'er's palm already had the power of the Qi Refining Realm!
How could she be promoted to the Qi Refining Realm in such a short period of time when she had no internal strength at all?
They couldn't fight inside the house because the location was too narrow. As she and Elder Jin retreated outside the house, she asked him, "Is there any hope?"
"No more. She was under good control at first, but now the toxins in her body have invaded her internal organs and will explode soon. And even if she survives, she won't be herself."
Ruan Xianbei understood that he would either mutate into those people, or the poison would explode and die.
They retreated to the courtyard and Xi'er followed. Her eyes gradually lost color and focus. Ruan Xianbei tried to call her name but there was no response.
Ruan Xianbei blocked Xi'er with a few moves, and the target she dealt with changed from Elder Jin to her.
Xi'er was very fast and small, so fast that Ruan Xianbei couldn't be distracted. She had never practiced martial arts, and her moves were completely unorganized. However, a small knife came from nowhere in her hand, and every time.
Each time, he specifically targeted the waist, abdomen, eyes, and neck, which are easily injured areas, to attack. If the attack fails, the horse will jump away and wait for the opportunity to strike again.
She couldn't beat Xi'er to death. Ruan Xianbei couldn't use her hands and feet, and she felt uncomfortable because the person she had obviously rescued had turned out like this.
"Xi'er!" Qianniang called Xi'er's name and opened the door. At this time, Xi'er happened to be on the tree at the door, and Qianniang was under the tree.
"Qianniang, be careful!"
The distance between the two was extremely close. Ruan Xianbei wanted to block Qianniang. Xi'er seemed to have noticed her intention and rushed towards Qianniang like lightning. Xi'er was faster than her. When Xi'er grabbed Qianniang's neck, At that moment, Qianniang reached out and hugged her.
"Xi'er! Xi'er, don't be afraid, I am A Niang, Xi'er, can you look at A Niang?" Xi'er's impact caused Qian Niang to fall to the ground.
I don’t know where Qianniang’s thin body got the explosive strength, but she was able to hug Xi’er tightly without letting go. Xi’er struggled and screamed crazily at the beginning and gradually became quiet, with tears constantly pouring out of her eyes.
"Aniang..." Xi'er shouted feebly, and her hands gradually relaxed.
Qianniang almost lost her breath, but when she regained her breath, she quickly sighed, "My mother is here, my mother is here, Xi'er, don't be afraid, Xi'er, don't be afraid..."
"Mommy, I want to eat candied haws on a stick now..."
"Aniang brought it." Qianniang answered her words, released her hand, and took out a candied haws wrapped in oilcloth paper from her arms.
She learned this candied haws from the cook. Last time Ruan Xianbei asked someone to bring back one and give it to the children of the Yayoi sect. Xi'er liked eating it very much but there was no way to sell it here, so she thought about how to learn it. Just do it yourself.
When Xi'er came back, she made an agreement with Qianniang that next time Qianniang would make candied haws for her. Qianniang hurried over with trembling hands after listening to the words from Yun Cai, bringing a semi-finished product she had made during the day. No wonder she was in the kitchen today. She has been restless, and she still has burn marks on her hands.
Although the sugar had melted a little and the hawthorns were not that sweet, they still looked like candied haws. Xi'er laughed after taking a bite.
"Thank you, grandma. If there is a next life, I will be grandma's mother, and grandma will be my daughter..."
Qianniang almost burst into tears and nodded and said yes, she would agree to anything.
Xi'er turned her head to look at Ruan Xianbei and prayed weakly: "Sisters, I can't hold it anymore, can you help me? I don't want... I don't want to be like that, and I don't want to hurt you anymore. Someone else."
Lan Zhao and Ruan Xianbei gathered around. Lan Zhao couldn't stop crying and shook his head. The blood on the ground dyed their clothes red.
It turned out that Xi'er's knife stabbed Qianniang's abdomen, and she had been injured since she fell to the ground.
Qianniang's body gradually slipped, and Lan Zhao quickly helped her over. Xi'er closed her eyes in Qianniang's arms, with a slight smile on her lips. When she opened her eyes again, all human emotions were gone again.
She broke away from Qianniang's arms and quickly attacked Ruan Xianbei. @·No mistake first~~
"How long can she hold on?" Ruan Xianbei asked Elder Jin.
"Almost." Elder Jin calmed down now and took notes with pen and paper. For fear of missing the key changes, he told Ruan Xianbei to delay as much time as possible for him to collect more information, so that Xi'er's death would not be in vain.
This sounds cold-blooded, but there is nothing you can do about it. Every experiment is a human life. If you want the next chance, it means that the antidote has failed again and more people are dying. In order to save more people, he has to do this. I believe that the strong female doll must also think so.
"How long will it be soon?" Junquge
"It's changing! Look at her hands!"
Ruan Xianbei looked closely and saw that the back of Xi'er's exposed hand began to fester. This change was not seen just now!
The toxins in her body are snatching control of her body. Either fuse or die!
"Exhaust her energy quickly!" Elder Jin reminded, Ruan Xianbei had to fight with Xi'er again.
Xi'er was not afraid of the pain even if she was hit by her, forcing Ruan Xianbei to have no choice but to dodge.
"Xi'er!"
“Sister Ruan….
Help......"
Xi'er would occasionally struggle and repeat this sentence, which made Ruan Xianbei's heart feel as uncomfortable as being pricked by needles.
Xi'er's face has begun to distort, her body is crackling, and she is getting further and further away from the appearance of a normal person.
"Okay, you go ahead and do it!" Elder Jin finally spoke.
A breeze blew by, and Ruan Xianbei drew out his soft sword and put it into Xi'er's chest.
Xi'er fell down softly without struggling at all, with a faint smile on her lips as if she was relieved.
Ruan Xianbei hugged Xi'er and put them together with Qianniang. Qianniang lost her will to live when she knew Xi'er could not survive, and now she only has one breath of support.
"Auntie, why are you so stupid...Why don't you run away..."
"Wherever you go, Aniang will accompany you."
"Mom, I'm a little sleepy..."
Qianniang patted Xi'er's back and hummed a ditty softly, with a gentle and long tone, as if she had returned to the carefree childhood in the mist.
Xi'er seemed to have remembered something and said to Ruan Xianbei: "Tell Sister Mu...I broke my promise...and thank you...I am very happy... "
Xi'er and Qianniang almost lost their breath one after the other. Their hands were held together and their faces were peaceful. Ruan Xianbei knelt beside them with his eyes lowered and did not move a step for a long time. Lan Zhao's mood was also very low. Cheng Suisui was helpless and cried beside them. The whole courtyard was shrouded in sadness.
When Shen Xuan came up behind her, he knelt down and patted her back gently, saying, "You have done a good job, I don't blame you."
This was the first time she tried to save a life but was unable to do anything in the end. If someone blamed her cruelty at this time, she would not be so sad, but Shen Xuan's gentle words hit her heart all of a sudden, and Ruan Xianbei burst into tears. When she came out, she finally cried softly.
Twenty taels of silver was a bit too small, but in modern times it was still around eight thousand to ten thousand yuan.
At present, an ordinary soldier in the Yu Dynasty can only earn one tael of silver per month at most, and a centurion can earn three taels of silver per month.
Maybe he will accept it.
In addition, Qin Hu is also planning to draw a big pie for Li Xiaokun. After all, Qin Hu used to have money.
Now it depends on whether he and Qin An can survive the night.
"Little Marquis, I may not be able to survive. I'm so hungry, my hands and feet are frozen with cold." Qin An said in a daze.
"Xiao Anzi, Xiao Anzi, hold on, hold on, you can't stay still, get up and run. Only in this way can you survive."
In fact, Qin Hu himself is in trouble. Although he was a special soldier in his previous life, this body is not what he used to be. All he has now is a perseverance.
"Wait!"
Qin Hu's eyes were like cold stars, and he suddenly shouted in a low voice. A reflection and a rustling sound that appeared just ten meters away from the camp aroused his alertness.
With the professional sense of smell of a special scout, he felt that it was the enemy.
But should we notify Li Xiaokun?
Qin Hu hesitated a little. What if he saw it wrong? You know, his current physical condition is completely different from before.
If a false alarm causes night terrors or camp roars, and someone gets a handle on it, they will be killed without mercy.
"Xiao Anzi, hand me the bow and arrow."
Qin Hu crawled under the carriage and whispered.
But Qin An's next words scared him so much that he almost jumped up.
"Bow and arrow, what are bow and arrow?"
What, there are no bows and arrows in this era?
Qin Hu looked around and found a wooden stick with a sharpened top placed under the wheel. It was two meters long. It was thick at the handle and became thinner as it went up. @·No mistake first~~
The more I look at it, the more it looks like a weapon.
Wooden gun, this is the iconic building of the cannon fodder.
"Come closer, come closer..." After a few breaths, Qin Hu was sure that he was right.
The other party may be the enemy's scouts, called scouts in this era. They are trying to enter the camp and conduct reconnaissance.
Of course if.
If conditions permit, you can also poison, set fire to, or perform a beheading operation.
"one two three……"
He and Qin An lay motionless on the ground until then, he suddenly jumped up and threw the wooden spear as a javelin.
"puff!"
It was impossible for the scout to wear armor because he had difficulty moving, so the shot pierced his chest directly.
Following Qin Hu, he picked up the wooden gun belonging to Qin An, jumped out of the carriage, and chased in the opposite direction desperately.
For the reliability of intelligence, the scouts are required to monitor each other and are not allowed to act alone, so there are at least two.
After a few moments, Qin Hu threw another black shadow to the ground.
Then he strangled his neck with a wooden gun. There was a crisp sound and the man's head hung down.
"Hoo ho, ho ho!" Qin Hu was sweating profusely and almost collapsed. He lay on the ground gasping for air. His body was really too weak.
Just to break the enemy's neck, before he could just use his hands, but just now he had to rely on the power of a wooden gun.
"Qin An, come here and search me for me."
Qin Hu is familiar with the rules of the battlefield. He must collect all the trophies from these two guys as quickly as possible.
"Two daggers, two horizontal knives, a level, seven or eight taels of broken silver, two grain bags, flags, kettles, two sets of cotton-padded clothes, two pot helmets, bacon..."
"Qin An, brother, hurry up, hurry up, eat something quickly, you are saved..."
Qin Hu tremblingly grabbed a handful of fried beans from the grain bag and stuffed it into Qin An's mouth, then filled him with water and put on the captured cotton-padded clothes.
.
Before daybreak, Qin Hu cut off the scout's head before the sentry on duty arrived, carried it into Shi Chang's camp, and reported what happened yesterday.
This was done to prevent others from taking credit, and he knew what kind of environment he was in now. _o_m
"Thirty taels of silver for one head, you are rich."
The chief's name was Gundam. He was a tall, muscular man with a beard.
At first, he didn't believe it until he saw the trophies captured by Qin Hu and the two corpses.
At this moment, his eyes were full of envy, jealousy and hatred.
"It's not me who gets rich, it's everyone who gets rich. This is the credit of the ten of us."
