Chapter 4 Juvenile Spirit
Chen Sheng hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the knife is not deep, it didn't hurt the organs, and I sealed the surrounding bloodline and controlled its spread, and I can force out this bit of toxin outside the skin and flesh." As he spoke, he pulled off a piece of placket and connected it under the wound, and began to concentrate and direct qi and blood.
Chang Sihao felt a little relieved, afraid that he would be cold, so he moved the copper basin where the yellow money paper was burned closer.
As soon as Chen Sheng meditated and exercised qi, he detoxified, and after a while, his body was steaming with sweat, as if every pore was gasping for breath. Qin Juexiang looked at it from the side, and said in his heart: "The bearded man has a lot of things to deal with on weekdays, but this kung fu has not been thrown away, if he is in a hurry to fight, he really wants to kill me, it is not a difficult thing." Thinking of this section, he immediately recalled his rude behavior towards him, and couldn't help but be a little afraid: "Uncle and grandfather are gone, Uncle Qi is gone, and the rest of the people in this rudder are not as good as him, who else can keep me safe?" Looking at Chang Sihao, seeing him looking at Chen Shengyi with a concerned face, he couldn't help but feel a headache: "Although the eldest brother's martial arts are far superior to him, he has a very good relationship with him, and he may not help me if he really falls out." ”
He thought about it, his heart was uneasy, and seeing that Chen Shengyi was very focused, he thought: "I have made him unhappy many times, and the hatred has been recorded, he may have a seizure one day, if you don't kill him at this time, when will you stay?" He leaned in with Chang Sihao and said in a low voice: "Big brother, I will hand it over to me and Brother Ma to support here, I see that your face is very ugly, I think you are tired, go back to the room and rest early." ”
Chang Sihao looked at Chen Shengyi intently, and only shook his head slightly.
He was silent, and Qin Juexiang didn't dare to move.
After half an hour, the fog around Chen Shengyi gradually dissipated, the bones of the whole body exploded, and the skin burned red like coals, as if it was about to become transparent. The black circle on the side of the wound began to shrink, and then the speed accelerated, getting smaller and smaller, and black water trickled out of the wound, falling on the placket, and after a long while, the red tide receded, and the complexion turned white, Chen Shengyi opened his eyes again, obviously already in a lot of energy.
He stood up on the ground, threw the placket of his clothes stained with black water in the brazier, and saw Qin Juexiang staring at him with good eyes, and said with a slight smile: "Young master, don't worry, the residual poison in my body is fine, and it can be cleared within three or five days." After a while, the wound is washed with water and bandaged. ”
Qin Juexiang said, "That's good." I thought, "The old boy is going to be amorous! Who the hell is worried about you!"
"Brother Chen, it has just rained, and the night in the spirit shed is cold, so I'll help you go back to the house. ”
Chang Sihao said as he took off Chen Shengyi's shirt, draped it on him, and pulled his left arm around the back of his neck, beckoning to Qin Juexiang: "You stand on his right." Chen Sheng hurriedly said: "Don't dare to bother the young master." But seeing that Qin Juexiang had already drilled his head out of his armpit, he didn't look at himself, he only twisted his face to the side and said to Ma Mingshao: "Brother Ma, the spirit shed is handed over to you, and Brother Chang and I will send him back!"
Ma Mingshao nodded respectfully, and watched the three of them leave, the light in the brazier faded, and the cold forest in the spirit shed looked much darker.
Chen Shengyi's residence is on the west side of the North Cross Courtyard, close to the outer wall of the Qin Mansion, Chang Sihao has been here when he borrowed night clothes, and he is naturally familiar with the road, but Qin Juexiang is the first time to come, I saw that he lives in this building The structure is small, the shape is square, the ridge on the top floor is very high, and the side wall has a window, which is the same size as the main window. Pushing the door in, the room was dark and gloomy, with a knife hanging faintly on the north wall hill, and below it was a square table, two chairs, and nothing else. Qin Juexiang took out the fire fold and beat it, and saw that the stairs were too narrow for the three of them to pass together, so he rushed to the front sideways to illuminate the road, and Chang Sihao helped Chen Shengyi and then went up the ladder.
As soon as he appeared at the entrance of the staircase, he felt that the light was much brighter, Qin Juexiang looked sideways, it turned out that the windows on all sides of this floor were open, and it looked like a tower, and he thought: "It's fun to live in the tower, and the bearded man will enjoy it." Hurry up two steps, light the candlestick next to it, push the window and look, the night is dark outside the northwest two walls, thousands of households are silent, the east is the north cross courtyard where Chang Sihao lives, at this moment the light on the second floor of Yunchun Pavilion is warm yellow, a maid stands on the porch outside the window, look at the moon door of the courtyard below, and look at the dripping water between the eaves, is out of her mind. Chang Sihao had already helped Chen Shengyi to the bed, and when he saw him open the window to look at the scenery, he was afraid of blowing in the cold wind, so he hurriedly greeted him and closed it.
Qin Juexiang closed the window and said with a smile: "The pagoda is good, but I don't know if the four monks who live there are empty." ”
Chen Shengyi smiled lightly: "The four major in Buddhism refer to the earth, water, fire, and wind, and there are windows on all sides of this upstairs, and the wind is indispensable." ”
Qin Juexiang said: "Oh, it turns out that the four major ones are earth, water, fire, and wind, and I still say that they are wine-colored and wealthy!" Seeing Chang Sihao's eyes, he knew that he was afraid that he would make a fuss and stir up fire, so he didn't say anything. Looking around the house, in addition to the wooden bed placed in the center of the head and the south foot in the north, there is only a set of tables and chairs under the south window, and there are two boxes and a cabinet in the corner of the wall, the furnishings are simple, and they are inferior to the servants in the house, and secretly thought: "Friends from all over the world have made friends with the Qin family, how many of them can directly contact the grandfather and uncle? ”
He looked at the two chests and pondered that Chen Sheng would probably not hide the gold and silver treasures in them, and it was impossible for the cabinets to be placed in the open. Sweeping around, his eyes fell on a brick under the west window, the brick was not high from the ground, although the size was the same as elsewhere, the color was slightly darker, and under the side light of the light, the shadow on the edge of the brick seam was thicker than elsewhere, and he was very happy: "This must be the hub of the dark grid in the house, and I can hide it from others, but I can't hide it from the eyes of the deity, hehe, Lao Tzu pressed it like this, the secret grid opened, and the gold and silver ingots inside rolled out like this, look at how your old boy ends!" When the eldest brother saw you swallowing up the Qin family's money, he looked down on you, to see if he would help you or help me when he arrived? haha!"
He saw that Chang Sihao on the side of the bed called Qing Shui to clean Chen Shengyi's wounds, and neither of them paid attention to themselves, so they walked to the west window, turned around and leaned his back against the windowsill, bent his left knee to take a nap, but his heel had already aimed at the direction, and gently knocked on the brick, and he heard the sound of the rattling and the start of the mechanism, and his heart was overjoyed, but he said: "Hey, what's wrong?" His eyes swept around.
Chen Shengyi said calmly: "You can just push open the window." ”
Qin Juexiang thought to himself: "You let me look outside, but I took the opportunity to hide the secret grid, I won't be fooled." Still looking around, in a moment, the sound of the mechanism wringing had disappeared, but there was nothing unusual in the room, and I couldn't help but wonder. Pushing open the window, I saw dozens of tiles on the eaves propping up, and the tip of the crossbow was exposed like a tongue in the machine bracket of Hesse below, aiming at the wall.
Chen Sheng: "That's a Velin crossbow." ”
Qin Juexiang looked slightly stunned: "There is still this kind of fortification in the mansion, I don't even know." ”
Chen Sheng smiled: "When the mansion was built, the young master had not yet been born, and this tiled crossbow was designed by the fifth master, and it was the most effective way to deal with the 'cats' who were good at flying and climbing the wall." Chang Sihao glanced at it when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Judging from the geographical location and construction style, this tower is obviously a fortification, and there are many rooms in the mansion, but Brother Chen lives here exclusively, and his intentions are self-evident." Alas, he has to do things for the Qin family during the day, and even when he sleeps at night, he has to prevent foreign invasions, and he is really dedicated to the Qin family. ”
Qin Juexiang naturally likes spring ingenious things, and he heard that this was designed by his father, so he couldn't let it go. He poked his head out to take a closer look, and saw that the joints and tenons of the machine were slightly shining, and there was no rust, and he knew that there must be an automatic oil filling groove lubrication and maintenance inside to facilitate long-term effective use. Thinking of his father, he felt even more sad in his heart, and muttered: "Daddy's design is exquisite, far above me, and I can't make many drawings he left behind." ”
Chen Shengyi: "I'm afraid your talent is not below him, but your father has another cleverness, which can often turn decay into magic, which is not something ordinary people can catch up." ”
"Oh?" Qin Juexiang became interested: "How did he turn decay into magic?"
Chen Shengyi: "Well, that's a lot, just take Cong Ziyu's incident as an example, your father and I were both in their twenties at the time, and his blood was strong, he formed a rudder in Huozhou, I was ordered by the old lady to work in Linfen, and I rushed back after the matter was done, and when I arrived in Huozhou, I saw him angrily nod and called six people to go out. ”
Qin Juexiang interjected and came in: "I heard grandpa say that the foundation of the Qin family was created by him in his twenties, you said that when this happened, my father was in his twenties, so grandpa is already middle-aged, and we have a lot of rudders in Jin, but it can be said that when the sun is in full swing, someone dares to rob our things?"
Chen Shengyi: "Yes, at that time, most of the friends in the green forest gave us face, but there were also a lot of people who ate raw rice." ”
Eating raw rice, on the green forest road, refers to robbers who ignore the rules of the rivers and lakes, no matter who the object is, and will not give face, Qin Juexiang nodded, knowing that even now, there are many such people.
Chen Shengyi continued: "I happened to be on the way, so I went with me. Eight people went all the way into Taiyue Mountain, inquired everywhere to find out, it was easy to find out that it was Congziyu and a gang of bandits, this small gang of only about 30 people, the leader of the boss nicknamed 'eat open', we thought to ourselves that those few thieves are still enough to pull a stroke? So we ordered the entourage to leave two to prepare to escort the car, and the rest went home, so the four of them drove into Congziyu. ”
Chang Sihao said with a smile: "Eight people against thirty people, it's not easy, you even sent four away." ”
"Hehe," Chen Sheng said with a smile: "It can also be regarded as 'art masters are bold', young people always like to be heroes, not to mention that before that, the fifth master and I almost picked up almost all the gangsters who dared to move our things, there are many times when the suspect is more cumbersome, they are all alone, although there have been dangers, but they have never missed, this time the fifth master picked six subordinates, that is because the other party let go, there is a sense of challenge, so special precautions. ”
Qin Juexiang couldn't wait to ask, "What about after driving into Congziyu?"
Chen Sheng smiled bitterly: "After entering, hehe, but I was dumbfounded." ”
