Xu Zizhen has suffered knife wounds, fist wounds, but he has not suffered arrow wounds, and now he deeply understands what it means to move the whole body, the sharp arrow is deeply pierced in the back, and every stroke in the water will involve the back tendons, the pain that drills his heart can keep him awake at all times, but his physical strength seems to be lost faster.

He gritted his teeth and endured the severe pain and the coldness of the river water, and only poked his head out under the bridge to breathe every time he crossed the bridge.

I don't know how far I swam, I don't know where I swam, gradually my physical strength began to overdraw, the scene in front of me was blurred, in a trance vaguely saw a small boat parked not far away, the boat was empty, he used his best strength to swim to the side of the boat, struggled to climb onto the boat, and fainted in front of him.

It seems that after a long time, Xu Zizhen finally woke up slowly, and he only felt that his body was as uncomfortable as a fire, and the arrow wound on his back was unbearable.

He slowly opened his eyes and found that he was no longer in the boat, but lying on a large, soft bed.

Where is this? Isn't Lao Tzu dead?

Suddenly, a happy voice sounded beside him: "Wake up, wake up!" ”

Xu Zizhen was taken aback, he subconsciously wanted to sit up, but the wound throbbed for a while, and he couldn't help but snort.

"Don't panic, it's me!" A kind face leaned over and carefully held Xu Zizhen up.

"Eun Gong?" Xu Zizhen turned his head to look, but was stunned to find that it was an acquaintance, it was the Cheng Uncle who had saved Li Luoyan, and there was a middle-aged man next to him, who was also looking at him with concern, but it was Cheng Bo's owner, Wang Manfu, the owner of Wang Si Winery, he was suddenly relieved, and said with a smile, "Uncle Cheng, Wang Shopkeeper, why are you two?" ”

Xu Zizhen secretly sighed, if you are someone else today, I am afraid that I am finished, last time I accidentally solved the case of the unjust death of his young son for Wang Manfu, but today it is their turn to save themselves, there is really a cause and effect in this world, and the good karma I formed saved myself in the end.

Cheng Bo helped him to lie back and asked, "Engong, what are you...... What happened? How could he be so badly injured? ”

Xu Zizhen smiled bitterly: "I'm wanted, this is an escape." ”

Wang Manfu said in a deep voice: "This matter is already known all over the city, and there are portraits of Engong everywhere in the six city gates, but isn't Engong not a person in the official mansion?" Why did Governor Wen ...... as soon as he transferred you?"

Xu Zizhen shook his head: "This is a long story, anyway, I didn't do anything hurtful." Then he briefly said that he had saved people and then found out who was behind the abduction case.

He said it simply, but the thrill was obvious, Cheng Bo slapped his face and said to Wang Manfu: "Look, I said that Engong must be wronged." ”

Wang Manfu groaned and said: "I naturally believe in Engong, but now that the whereabouts of Engong are being searched everywhere in Suzhou City, and there are many people in my house, no one is allowed to talk too much for those rewards, so I should think of letting Engong go out of the city as soon as possible." ”

Cheng Bo hurriedly said: "Ke Engong is seriously injured, if you don't treat it first, I'm afraid it will be extremely inappropriate." ”

Wang Manfu is a businessman, and he is not only shrewd, but also steady, he shook his head and said: "How dare I find an ordinary doctor, in case he treats Engong's injury on his front foot, and runs to ventilate and report on his back foot to earn a reward, wouldn't that hurt Engong?" ”

Xu Zizhen listened to what they said, and couldn't help but interject and laugh: "Shopkeeper Wang, Uncle Cheng, don't call me by Duke En, I'm a fugitive now, staying here will hurt you sooner or later, anyway, this injury can't kill anyone, I just want to sneak out of the city." ”

Wang Manfu's expression was solemn, and he said categorically: "No, Engong has great kindness to my Wang family, although I Wang Manfu has not read too many sage books, but if there is grace, I will repay the four words or know the Tao, not to mention that Engong is doing the right thing for heaven, if I let Engong go, wouldn't it be better than a pig and a dog?" ”

Uncle Cheng also shook his head again and again, saying that he would not let Xu Zizhen go out of the house, Xu Zizhen couldn't help laughing while being moved, and said with a deep groan: "Okay, then I will bother the shopkeeper Wang, as for my injury...... Uncle Cheng, please find someone for me. ”

Xu Zizhen asked Cheng Bo to find the old man from the Suzhou Mansion as his uncle, he was still very relieved about his uncle, the old man and he studied the friendship of the Jiuyang Sutra together, although it was a little obscene, but it would not betray her.

Not long after, Uncle Gui hurriedly arrived, and as soon as he entered the door, he gave Xu Zizhen a thumbs up: "You kid, you are good!" ”

Xu Zizhen grinned: "Uncle Gui, do you know everything?" I didn't say it, I asked you for this injury. ”

Uncle Gui rolled his eyes: "Don't you think I'm fiddling with the dead today?" But after all, he still helped Xu Zizhen up and examined his wounds.

Xu Zizhen always felt that Uncle Gui was a fool, at best, he would have a headache and brain fever or something, but he didn't expect Uncle Gui's medical skills to be really good, not only cleaned the ulcer flesh and pus and blood of the wound for him, but also smeared on the ointment that I don't know what kind of ointment, Xu Zizhen only felt a cool feeling at the wound, and the pain was greatly reduced.

Uncle Gui finished treating his wounds, bandaged them carefully, and then said, "You take care of your injuries, don't move around recently, otherwise the arrow sores will burst and you will die." ”

Xu Zizhen nodded yes again and again, pondered for a while, and suddenly asked, "Uncle Gui, has Lord Wen already gone to Lanzhou?" ”

Speaking of this, Uncle Gui couldn't help but sigh: "Lord Wen is a rare good official, it's a pity...... Lanzhou Mansion borders Western Xia, and there is often friction between swords and soldiers, and he is afraid that the Lanzhou prefect is not good. ”

Xu Zizhen was silent, he didn't think that Wen Zhifu was a good official, but in the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty, there were six thieves in the imperial court, and the better the officials, the more difficult it was to mix, this is the sadness of this era.

"Uncle, I want to trouble you." Xu Zizhen paused and said, "Help me go to Xie Fuchun in Changmen to take a look, I want to know what is going on in Lu Dao." ”

Mo Li'er is already his daughter-in-law who has not passed through the door, Wen Zhifu was suddenly transferred and then he was wanted, which really caught him off guard, Hu Youzu and Kong Qilin are not good goods, I am afraid that if he is not caught, he will be angry with the Mo family's mother and daughter.

Before Uncle Gui could speak, Uncle Cheng spoke: "Xie Fuchun has already closed the door." ”

Xu Zizhen was taken aback: "Closed?" Could it be that they have been arrested by Hu Youzu? ”

Uncle Gui patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, the new Governor Hu hasn't caught them, I have long known about the relationship between you and their mother and daughter, and I have been careful for you early on." ”

Hearing that Mo Li'er had nothing to do, Xu Zizhen's heart also relaxed, but where they went, they didn't have a clue about it, Uncle Gui didn't stay long, and left some ointment and left.

It was already dark, Wang Manfu asked Cheng Bo to boil some porridge, and muttered: "Engong, I will send you out of the city early tomorrow morning, but you can't go for the time being, my shop has a wine cellar in neighboring Yushan County, if Engong doesn't dislike it, he will raise it in my wine cellar for a while." ”

Xu Zizhen's eyes lit up: "Wine cellar? All right! ”
