A carriage came in front of the ruined temple. The old man driving the car looked at the lights in the ruined temple in front of him, which were particularly soft in the dark night.
"Master, there is a ruined temple in front of us. Let's take shelter from the rain inside."
"good."
A deep and hoarse voice sounded from inside the carriage, accompanied by several rapid coughs, causing the old servant driving the car to ask worriedly: "Master, are you okay?"
The old servant was secretly worried. Originally, the young master was not that ill. He just suffered a little cold on the road. The young master was in a hurry and didn't pay attention. Unexpectedly, he caught the cold on this rainy night and his condition worsened. In a short period of time, he became seriously ill. More serious.
This place in the wilderness is uninhabited, but the young master happens to be sick again. How can this be a good thing?
"No defense, cough!" The young man said and started coughing again, wheezing and hurriedly, and he quickly held it with a handkerchief.
The old servant couldn't help speeding up his journey, waving his riding whip and driving towards the light.
With a sudden sound, the door was pushed open, waking up the people in the room. The escort from Sihai Escort Agency stood up, holding his hand on the handle of the knife involuntarily, and looked at the intruder warily.
Unexpectedly, only two people came in, one old and one young. The old man was dressed in shorts, his clothes were soaked, and the rainwater dripped down his trouser legs and fell to the ground.
The young man was only around 20 years old. He was dressed in white and had a dignified figure. He had sword-shaped eyebrows and long and narrow eyes, looking forward to the sky. He looked like a dragon or a phoenix. His nature was natural. His appearance was very handsome. He was definitely more beautiful than a woman. Three points, but he coughed a few times from time to time, and there was an abnormal flush on his cheeks. It was obvious that he was ill and was ill.
Half of his body was leaning on the old servant. There was a saying that he was as sick as the west and as weak as the willow blowing in the wind.
The two of them did not expect that there would be so many people in the ruined temple, and they were also holding weapons. They stared at them with vigilant faces. They were stunned for a moment, unable to move forward or retreat. The old servant was in a dilemma. The master was sick. Is it possible to return? Want to stay in the rain?
What should I do?
The old man supported his master and couldn't help but hold his other hand to his waist.
The young man's eyes wandered for a moment, as if he had no intention of looking at the people in the room. With the faint light, he could see the small ruined temple clearly. There were ten strong men in the ruined temple, nine of whom were armed with swords for self-defense. Behind them were There was a cloth curtain, and a faint light came from inside. It seemed that there were people resting inside.
After watching silently for a moment, the man raised his hand and said, "It's dark and the roads are slippery, so I'm sorry to bother you. The two of us would like to stay here for one night. We hope it's convenient for you."
"Excuse me, you two. We are also the ones taking shelter from the rain." Jiang Sihai said politely, putting down his guard, waving his hand for the bodyguard to return to his original position to rest, and then asked someone to make room next to the fire for the two of them to warm themselves up. To drive away the cold.
"Thank you." The old man helped his master sit down, raised his hand and thanked him. His eyes were guarded from beginning to end, and he did not dare to relax for a moment.
"Cough! Cough!" The man coughed again.
"Master, how are you?" the old man asked with concern, handing over the water bag with an anxious look on his face.
It's dark and rainy today, so what can I do?
All he answered was shaking his head. The young man couldn't stop coughing and couldn't even think about drinking water.
No matter how anxious the old man was, he had no choice but to pat the young man's back gently with one hand, hoping to alleviate his pain. He eagerly hoped that the sky would dawn sooner and the rain would stop earlier so that he could take the young master to the doctor.
"This young master must have caught the cold and coughed so badly." Jiang Sihai did not fall asleep. He saw that the young man was coughing and could not speak. He said that he was not familiar with the place and they were strangers to each other. He should not have said anything. , but they couldn't sleep peacefully because of this young man's disturbance.
yes! My young master caught wind and cold along the way. He wanted to go to the town to see a doctor, but unfortunately he encountered this terrible weather again. "The old man said helplessly, looking up at the bearded man in front of him with fear, and couldn't help but tighten his hands.
"It's not easy to find a doctor in this wilderness. It's a coincidence. We have prepared some cold medicine for emergency use. I don't want you to try it." Jiang Sihai said, and took out a white porcelain bottle from his bag. He handed it to the old man and said: "Young Master, take two of the pills here first, and then two more tomorrow, three times a day, after meals."
Because it was inconvenient to make soup while traveling, Xiao Ming specially made various pills. Anyone who felt uncomfortable or contracted an illness along the way took Xiao Ming and her pills, and the effect was very good.
"This..." The old man hesitated and did not reach out to pick it up. He was on guard against others. He was not sure and he did not dare.
"I don't want medicine when I have it. I don't know what's good and what's good. I'm going to watch him cough to death!" Shi Dahe said dissatisfied. This old man really didn't know what's good and what's good. He guarded them like wolves and really regarded them as bad people.
"Cough! Cough!" The young man coughed a few more times before he finally calmed down. He took the medicine bottle from Jiang Sihai's hand and said, "Big brother gave me the medicine. Thank you very much, little brother."
"You're welcome. We should take care of each other when we go out." Jiang Sihai smiled and didn't say much. He turned back and sat down. That's it. It was his business whether to take it or not.
The young man poured out two pills and prepared to take them. The old man was worried, how could he take this unknown medicine indiscriminately.
The old man was anxious and lowered his voice to persuade: "Master, this group of people has unknown origins, so don't take this medicine indiscriminately."
These people are people with martial arts skills. They are in a hurry and have no protection with them. What can be done if this group of people has evil intentions.
"No defense." The young man shook his head and insisted on taking the medicine. He looked at the anxious old servant and said, "Uncle Yong, look over there."
The young man pointed to the items piled in the corner. There was a cloth bag there. There was nothing unusual about the cloth bag, except that it had the word "Chiang" on it. He happened to recognize this word, which was the symbol of the Jiang family of the Four Seas Escort Company, and he happened to know Jiang Sihai, the head of the escort agency, is a bearded man.
He had met this man once at the pier in the capital. This tall and burly man with a big beard stood out among the crowd.
I didn’t expect to meet him here, it’s his luck!
Uncle Yong, the old servant, looked in the direction of the young master's finger. He only saw a pile of debris piled in the corner, some ordinary things, but he didn't see what was going on. He didn't know why.
The young man had no choice but to remind him gently: "Escorts from all over the world."
A moment ago, the young man felt itchy throat, headache, and body heat. After taking the medicine, he felt better. After knowing that it was Jiang Sihai from the Four Seas Escort Agency, he was not very afraid. He actually closed his eyes and rested, leaving nothing behind. Uncle Yong stood guard by himself, wanting to rest but not daring. Although the young master said these people were from the Four Seas Escort Company, he could not relax and close his eyes, so he had to stay by the young master's side.
The ruined temple became quiet, and from time to time the intermittent coughing of the young man could be heard. The Sihai Escort Agency replaced two people on duty, and the rest of the people took a rest. The people on duty were walking or sitting, and were on guard.
