"By the way, how do you get in touch with Runtu and the others?" Zheng Quchi turned his face and asked Fatty Huai.
Huai Fatty quickly told her: "The commander will notify us by blowing the whistle. Generally, three short whistles indicate an emergency situation, and three short and two long whistles means there is no problem. We are at the agreed place. Wait, the commander will take the initiative to contact us when the time comes."
Zheng Quchi nodded suddenly after hearing this.
Beibei hesitated for a moment and said, "Madam, it's fine as long as we're watching from above. Why don't you go down and accompany the general first? If anything happens, we'll report it as soon as possible."
Zheng Quchi was actually a little worried that Yu Wensheng was alone in the carriage with an injured person. She thought about it, said "hmm" and said with a smile: "Okay, I'd like you to pay more attention to it, but it's best to take advantage of this." Take a good rest in your free time, you don’t know what surprises you may encounter on the way ahead.”
This was the first time for Fatty Huai and the four of them to see someone like Madam.
She doesn't look like a general's wife at all. She doesn't have the arrogance of a noble being condescending to civilians, nor does she have the barriers and boundaries brought about by status. She always has a feeling that makes people feel very comfortable.
Just like when familiar relatives and friends meet, chat, laugh and care, they don't have to get close deliberately. As long as she smiles, they will have a natural and considerate impulse to pour out their feelings to her.
But at the same time, she is also an admirable and respectable person. She never flaunts how powerful she is, but when they need her, she will be particularly mature and steady, and she will become their backbone invisibly.
So, how can a person be so approachable and yet so amazing?
"We understand, thank you madam for your concern."
Liao Tai responded in unison with them and smiled back.
With such a general's wife by his side, they all began to look forward to life in the camp in the future. Maybe the little solar energy of his wife would bring different changes to the general.
It will not be like before, only cold and cruel, there is no warmth at all in the military camp, everything is just iron laws and military regulations.
——
Zheng Quchi returned to the carriage and saw Yu Wensheng leaning against the window, with a slender face, looking calmly and deeply at the scenery of water plants and wetlands passing by outside the car.
She immediately went over and said, "How can you blow the cool breeze when you are like this? What if..."
She didn't finish the rest of her words, she just reached over him and reached out to close the car window.
As soon as she turned around, she saw Yu Wensheng looking at her with a strange and strange look.
"It's been a long time since you smiled at me. Didn't you always smile when you saw me before?"
Zheng Quchi: "..."
She laughed before because Wang Zebang said that he didn't like women to laugh. She thought that if she smiled too much, he would not be able to bear it, but she didn't expect that he would be so tolerant and stay put.
However, now he suddenly wanted to see her smile. He was deliberately looking for discomfort, right?
She forced a smile, and her little white glutinous rice teeth were in the shape of a crescent: "Is that so?"
"no."
Yu Wensheng narrowed his eyes and said directly.
"What time of day it is now, how can I laugh?" Zheng Quchi sat down opposite him and stopped laughing.
"You were up there just now, weren't you smiling happily?" He asked in a calm tone.
Zheng Quchi paused and rolled his eyes. He didn't remember whether she was smiling just now. She was smiling happily. She rubbed her nose and said, "Did you laugh?"
"I laughed," he said firmly.
"Still smiling happily?" she asked again.
"That's right."
"Oh, that's none of my business. Someone else must have made me laugh. I won't laugh randomly." Zheng Quchi said innocently.
Yu Wensheng smiled gently: "Then I make you laugh, will you laugh?"
Zheng Quchi was sure that he must be sick, otherwise why would he do such a boring thing. ..
"Try it." She responded casually.
However, "Living Yama" could also make people laugh, and she was really looking forward to it.
Yu Wensheng caught her off guard and pulled her into his arms. Zheng Quchi subconsciously reached out and struggled, but was locked tightly in his arms.
"What are you doing? Let me go."
She pushed with her hands, but felt wetness on her palms. Her movements immediately stopped: "You, are you bleeding?"
"Struggle a little longer and see if you can make me bleed to death." He heard her exclamation and laughed lowly.
This madman can still laugh at this moment.
Zheng Quchi rolled his eyes, but didn't move. Hug it, hug it, anyway, you won't lose a piece of flesh.
"Quichi, there's no time..."
He suddenly said in a low voice.
"What?"
We...are running out of time.
Yu Wensheng rested his chin lightly on her shoulder, but looked absently out of the car window, and then asked with a smile: "Qu Chi, if I die, I will give you all the wealth, silk, mansion and fertile land I own. You will inherit everything I have, okay?"
After hearing what he said, Zheng Quchi was stunned.
Her first reaction was how much wealth a general's mansion could have, but then she slapped herself awake again: "What are you talking about?"
"You like gold and silver, right?"
Isn't this just asking her directly if she likes money?
Zheng Quchi didn't think there was anything wrong with his hobby, so he said frankly: "Yes, I like money, but does this have anything to do with you?"
A gentleman loves money and gets it wisely. She is not a poor person, so why should she care about other people's inheritance?
Yu Wensheng misunderstood her meaning: "You don't like me, don't you even like my belongings?"
"What are you talking about?" she frowned.
Yu Wensheng let her go and looked into her eyes: "I thought you would laugh when you heard this good news. But you don't laugh now. Is it because... you are reluctant to let me die?"
"No!" She turned away.
He turned his face away, so childishly that he insisted on asking her to look at him: "You have a tough mouth but a soft heart. What will you do if you are deceived by others in the future?"
Zheng Quchi didn't know what was wrong with him, so she stopped hiding. She looked into his eyes and said clearly: "I, Zheng Quchi, have only been deceived by one person in my life. Don't really think that I look stupid. Stupid."
Yu Wensheng opened his eyes slightly after hearing the words, carefully savoring the meaning of her words, and then he laughed, and the laughter got louder and louder.
Thinking that he had just said that the laughter above could be heard from the carriage, she quickly blocked his mouth: "Why are you laughing? Keep your voice down."
Zheng Quchi felt as if he was being laughed at.
He did not pull away her hand, but flexibly hooked her clothes with his fingers and took out the things hanging around her neck. His eyes were dark and there was an incomprehensible smile on his face: "Wear it well and don't take it off for a moment, okay?"
"What's wrong with you? Is your injury really that serious? Is it hopeless?" Zheng Quchi let go of his hand, took the Luan bracelet back and stuffed it into his clothes.
She saw that Runtu and the others didn't seem particularly solemn or worried when they mentioned his injury, so she thought that his injury shouldn't be a big problem, but why did he act like he was explaining what happened after his death?
Is Runtu deliberately hiding it, or is he exaggerating here to deceive her...
"Yeah, I'm dying, are you happy?"
I'm happy, you big-headed ghost!
Thinking that she had witnessed the injuries on his body, it was not a lie. Maybe he really felt that his injuries were too serious and he was starting to give up on himself soon.
She didn't know how to comfort him at the moment, or there was nothing she could do about his injuries.
She took a deep breath and said with a tough look: "Yu Wensheng, you know, I am heartless and can get by with anything. However, I have always been serious and solemn about life. Maybe it's me. This person is naive and stupid, I hope everything is peaceful, I hope
Everyone can live in a place where there is no war, no killing, and no life-or-death struggle to survive. "
After listening with a strange expression, he nodded with a smile and said, "It sounds... it does sound naive and stupid."
Zheng Quchi didn't care about his venomous tongue. How could her lofty ideals be understood by war madmen like them? She just concluded with her previous sentence: "So I will feel happy when no one dies, including you."
Yu Wensheng didn't feel happy because she said these words. What he cared about was: "From this point of view, there is no difference between me and other people in your heart..."
Zheng Quchi was just about to reply when he heard a sharp whistle coming from far outside.
?——
?——
?,?——
She quickly stood up, lay down by the window and looked outside: "Yu Wensheng, it's a whistle, it's Runtu and the others who have sent a message, but..."
How can it be two long and two short?
Didn't Runtu say before that if there is a situation, he will blow three short whistles, and Huai Fatty also said that three short and two long whistles means there is no problem, but now, neither of them is right, so these two What does long and two short mean?
She turned her head to look at Yu Wensheng. He raised his eyes, understood the inquiry in her eyes, and said, "Two long and two short represent..."
He drew out his final tone, and Zheng Quchi couldn't wait any longer and asked, "What does it mean?"
Is there a third kind of whistle that signals a secret signal?
Seeing how anxious she was, Yu Wensheng stopped teasing her and said directly: "It means they may have missed and been captured. This is a whistle deliberately sent by the enemy to lure us into taking the bait."
Zheng Quchi looked at him in astonishment.
Isn't this a particularly serious matter? How could he say it in such a calm tone?
When she looked outside now, she felt that everything was surrounded by soldiers and dangers abounded.
"Then Runtu and the others are in danger. Are there many enemies ambushing them at the ferry? What should we do now?"
Yu Wensheng took her hand, asked her to sit next to him, and dropped another bomb: "Not only the ferry, but also the road we came from is full of enemies."
Zheng Quchi, who was shocked and frightened, finally calmed down: "Then it's hard for us to fly now? No, there must be other ways."
Yu Wensheng sometimes particularly appreciates her resilience. Others would tighten up and get tighter, and eventually collapse and break, but she would pull back tighter and harder, and she would never give up hope.
Unable to see her being frightened and panicking, and then seeking comfort from himself, Yu Wensheng waved away the slight disappointment and regret in his heart and said: "On land, they did set up a dragnet, but in the water, they may not necessarily Yes."
When Zheng Quchi heard that there was something going on, her eyes brightened in vain: "Do you have any other preparations at the ferry? But, if they lead troops to block them in front, how should we rush over?"
He stood up, held her hand, leaned over and asked, "Before, you didn't say anything. You just told me to believe you. I did. Now I ask you, do you believe me?"
Zheng Quchi raised his head, with a somewhat struggling expression on his face. Although she seemed to get along easily with others and confide in her heart, she was actually not someone who easily trusted others. Instead of trusting others, it was better to trust herself.
But... Yu Wensheng, a suspicious and vigilant person, was able to believe her under the circumstances at that time. It would be too arrogant for her to say she didn't believe it.
"...Letter." She risked her life.
She just believed him this time. If she believed him right, forget it. If he believed wrong, she wouldn't have the chance to try again.
Yu Wensheng smiled and reached out to touch her head as a reward: "That's good."
He took off the red gauze covering her eyes and tied it to her eyes. In an instant, her eyes were filled with red.
"If you are scared for a while, close your eyes. Believe me, I will definitely let you return to Ye Country."
——
After getting off the carriage, there was a patch of reeds in front of me.
In the reed marsh, the tide at the ferry rises in spring, and the water overflows the reed marsh. There is a large puddle in front of it, making it inconvenient for carriages to continue running on this wetland.
Yu Wensheng and Zheng Quchi both got off the carriage and walked forward slowly. They saw the water flowing eastward, and the breeze blew through the river with very fine ripples. It was quiet all around, even the white water that could often be seen on the beach. The birds were gone.
Perhaps out of suspicion, Zheng Quchi always felt that somewhere out of sight, in the looming reed pool, there was an ambush and a crowd slowly approaching.
She nervously grasped the arm crossbow in her hand. This was not a heavy-fire Kucha crossbow that was good at long-range shooting. Considering that there might be a close combat, she chose a lightweight short-range arm crossbow.
"Your right hand is broken and you are injured all over. If there is an emergency, just stay behind me and don't be impulsive." Zheng Quchi whispered to Yu Wensheng.
Yu Wen Sheng saw her looking around cautiously, with her body slightly in front of him. It was just like when she thought he was a weak scholar and she sincerely wanted to protect him.
Yu Wensheng was happy to see her protecting him. He still held one of her hands: "Don't worry, although my right hand is broken, don't I still have my left hand?"
Left hand?
Isn't this left hand not well practiced yet?
She glanced at him and saw that Yu Wensheng had put on his Nuo mask again. Except for his smiling eyebrows and lips, the rest of his body was hidden under the mask.
"Don't be brave. I know that I may not be able to protect you. You may have to take action at the critical moment, but at least using less strength is just one point. You need to save some strength first." She taught Chun Chun. road.
Yu Wensheng accepted it well: "Okay."
The four people behind them, Huai Fatty, Beibei, and the others looked stupid as they looked at the interaction between the general and his wife.
