Since childhood, Shaoshang has been adhering to the principle of 'out of sight, out of mind'. She has always been far away from those who may cause trouble to her but cannot afford to offend her; because, you are Impossible to be invincible.
For example, she knew her parents and fellow villagers in the same town when she was a child, but she has basically stopped contacting her since she went to study abroad; for example, Lou Yao, who witnessed her pulling Qiaomu, hoped that the violent riot would scare him away forever; another example, seeing her in Lord Ling, who had been groping for a long time under the bridge—God bless him not to think of the bridge fall incident on the day of the Wanfu Banquet! !
However, when Shaoshang counted the casualties in Cheng Mansion, she felt that even if it was to reduce this number, let alone seeing Ling Budo a few times, it would be okay to marry Jin Lan.
In the age of cold weapons, the damage may not be as deadly as in later generations, but it is more shocking than that. Except for the common knife and arrow wounds, there are also people who have been torn off a large piece of flesh, chopped off a limb, and even kicked by a horse's hoof. The intestines are rotten. The most terrifying thing was that the two guards had been slashed in the face, one had his nose flattened, but he was still alive; the other was stabbed from the left eye to the chin, and the stab wound went deep into the skull, and was dying.
Sang was both sad and worried, and later developed a low-grade fever. Finally, Li Wulang acted thoughtfully and brought the best doctors in the town with him. After the pulse was diagnosed, he immediately set up a pot to decoct medicine. Looking at Sang Shi, who was in a coma and babbling constantly, the housekeepers and servants who came to the house one after another surrounded him and chatted, and Shao Shang suddenly realized that he had to temporarily act as the head of the Cheng family.
Children have the capital to be self-willed and cheating. That is because there are omnipotent parents in front of them. Once the elders are unable to come forward, they naturally have to learn to mature.
The young merchant immediately cheered up and performed his duties as the head of the family—
first sent a few seasoned housewives to the thieves and prisoners to inquire about the whereabouts of the captive maidservants. Then they sent a family general to retrieve the dozens of luggage carts that were left behind along the way they came. The thieves were busy chasing them, and it was estimated that they had not had time to divide the spoils.
Those who were not injured set up tents to rest outside the house, and those who were injured moved into the house to chop down trees and burn charcoal for the brazier to heat up everywhere. The servants are divided into two groups, one is burying the pot to make rice, the other is boiling water to clean the wound and burning grass ash to stop the bleeding.
Then he took out more than half of the pocket money given by Father Cheng to the doctor, and told him to send someone to go to the village to get medicine for frying. The weather is cold and the ground is freezing, blood loss and trauma, whether there is any injury or not, about everyone has to drink a few bowls of decoction to drive away cold, stop bleeding and eliminate inflammation.
Next is spiritual comfort.
Young merchants need to go one by one, condolences to the wounded, and commends those who have made meritorious deeds. In the face of nearly a hundred soldiers of the family general who fought bloody battles all day and night, she wanted to give a speech like a great leader, saying that the soldiers were full of tears and blood boiled without regrets.
It's a pity that she can't, her eloquence skills are all lit up in negative aspects such as sarcasm. Can only promise repeatedly 'the deceased and disabled will take care of their families, and the wounded will be comforted' and so on.
But she also has the advantage of being hard-hearted. The generals and guards have a lot of work to do. They have to set up accounts to collect the corpses and go out to inquire about news. The servants have to manage the kitchen, so they are mostly maids who deal with the injured. There were a few young people who were scared to cry just seeing the bloody wounds, no matter how loud the medics shouted and commanded above, they couldn't do anything. Shaoshang passed by and saw it, and asked the maid to tie a loop on her arm, and she started without saying a word.
According to the doctor's instructions, let the arrow be drawn, even if the blood is splashed; In this way, the maids were embarrassed and shy when they saw that their daughter-in-law was like this.
After being busy for a long time, Mrs. Li shouted outside the house, "Lord Ling is here, please see the young lady", and Shao Shang hurried out of the house. Not to mention the blood on his skirt and robe, his two bloody hands seemed to have just come out of the murder scene. Same.
Under the cold sunlight, Ling Budo had skin as white as snow, tall and slender as a winter cypress, with a black fur cloak around him, and the six swordsman guards around him stood quietly in the open space in front of the house, like a forest. There is an eternal beauty in the snow. Shaoshang stood in front of him at a loss, feeling like a pig-killing girl who was rushing to the business progress with a face full of flesh.
All the female animals in the healing room came back to life. The girls stopped and climbed the window to take a peek. The exclamations and whispers behind Shao Shang were clearly audible - 'You are so handsome', 'Which general is this? ', 'Like the fairy godmother in the painting'...
Shao Shang Qiang was embarrassed and pretended not to hear anything. He stepped forward and raised his arms to bow, and said respectfully: "I don't know if the adults have finished chasing the poor bandits, and the little girl is late to meet you." After salute, she raised her head and continued, " If it wasn't for Lord Ling's righteous help, I still don't know what it would have been like. I don't want to say thank you, and if there is any order from Lord Ling in the future, the Cheng family will not dare to refuse!" Drop the handle on the words.
Hearing 'no thanks for your kindness', Ling Budo smiled slightly: "Young lady is very polite."
Shao Shang has decided to become a mature adult, so don't talk back like a child, not to mention that there are still many things to ask for right now. To ask, I dared not to be angry at the moment, and my tone became more and more respectful: "The little girl is weak, and nothing else can be effective, but I see that there are also wounded under the command of Lord Ling. It would be a mistake for the Lord to march, so you might as well leave the wounded soldiers behind, The Cheng family will take good care of them. I have just prepared the two largest vacant rooms, and there are charcoal basins, hot water, wound medicine and manpower, which can be used by the injured soldiers." He said to the two rooms behind him on the left. Raise your arm. This is the most intimate way of repaying her gratitude she can think of so far.
Li Taigong nodded again and again and said, "Young master, this proposal is very good, Lord Ling, look..." Before Ling Budo
spoke, a juvenile guard with a square chin beside him interrupted, "Young lord, the injury can't be done any longer. If it's delayed, it's better to go to the house to heal..." Before he finished speaking, another guard who was slightly older also said: "Young lord, although Liang Qiufei spoke recklessly, he was right, and the injury can't be delayed any longer."
It was only then that Shao Shang discovered that the older guard had an arrow stuck in his left arm. She hurriedly said eagerly: "This guard's injury is not serious, hurry into the room for treatment."
The older guard had a worried expression, and after hearing the words, he looked at Shao Shang in astonishment. Ling Budo pondered for a moment, finally nodded, and then walked towards the empty room.
Shao Shang was stunned for a moment. Could it be that he couldn't believe in handing over the injured to the Cheng family? Would you like to visit in person? She turned around and said with an apologetic smile: "Don't worry, my lord, the Cheng family will take good care of the wounded soldiers!"
The young man named Liang Qiufei became anxious: "You...!"
Ling Budo didn't say a word, raised his left arm and lifted the animal hair cloak to one side, only to see a broken arrow shaft exposed on the black woven gold brocade under the jet-black shoulder armor shaped like a tiger's tooth and a lion's head, with blood stains. already condensed.
The little businessman choked.
Li Wulang on the side shouted in response to the occasion: "Oh, Master Ling, you are injured, how long has it been, hurry up, hurry up and invite the doctor who just arrived, he is the best at treating sword injuries in my town. !"
Shao Shang turned away silently, raised his hand to make a request for an extension - well, you are also considered a wounded.
Ling Budo paused for a while, and looked sideways, the girl's sleeves were tied up high by the loops, and when she raised her hand, a pink and tooted snow-white forearm was revealed. The wrist was only two inches wide. is cute.
After thinking about it, he stepped into the house again.
It wasn't until Ling Wuxuan and the Li family's father and son entered the house, and Shaoshang was still hesitating outside, thinking that he had to inquire about the whereabouts of Uncle Pig's Trotter, Cheng Zhi, and then he gathered up the courage to walk into the house.
The two maids next to her finally couldn't stand it anymore, and one said, "Young master, you should wash before entering." The other hurriedly brought hot water and soap horns.
Shao Shang secretly sighed that his busy head was numb, he went to wash his hands with a wry smile, and then hurried into the house, the two maids hurried to catch up.
The empty house was baked warm and dry, and everyone took off their fur jackets. Another guard with a scar on his face led several soldiers to inspect the house and placed four horses. Ling Buxuan sat high, the Li family father and son sat on the left two, and the right one was obviously reserved for the young businessman who temporarily acted as the head of the family.
When Shao Shang entered, he saw Doctor Cheng and the sword-scarred guard standing behind Ling Budo. He carefully removed his cloak and shoulder armor, followed by his breastplate and outer robe, followed by his middle coat and underwear. Showing her fair shoulders...
Shaoshang was a little embarrassed, and wanted to turn her head and leave. Who knew that from the Wu maid beside her to the Li family's father and son, she didn't think anything was wrong -- also, she just saw the bare arm in the healing room. Bare legs are not twenty or eighteen.
Since everyone doesn't mind, what else does she mind, she has seen it before, okay?
The father and son of the Li family had already left their seats, and they approached Ling Wuxuan to look at the arrow wounds. Shao Shang followed Taigong Li honestly and poked his neck to look around. When the healer removed the cloth belt covering the wound, everyone took a deep breath -
a thick arrow with rust was exposed two inches on the left side of the back shoulder blade, and a circle of black and red was condensed around the arrow wound. Apparently it's been a while.
The best narrator, Li Wulang, exclaimed, "Oh, how long has it been for Master Ling?! Why didn't you treat it right away! The injury is getting worse and worse!"
The young guard named Liang Qiufei said both proudly and indignantly: "In order to suppress the bandits, we haven't rested for two days and two nights, how can we heal the wounds?! I had a moment of free time today, but who would have met you halfway through, crying and begging our young master to save your father, this Didn't they fight until now?!"
The sword-scared guard said solemnly: "Ah Fei, don't be rude."
Understanding the meaning of the words, Shaoshang's ears twitched, and he slowly moved a few inches behind Taigong Li. . Unexpectedly, when Taigong Li heard the words, he took a few steps forward excitedly, completely exposing the girl behind him.
The old man was excited, clasped his fists and said loudly: "Lord Ling is so righteous! I'm thankful for you here! In the future, whenever you send me, my hometown will follow me!"
This is similar to what Shicai Shaoshang said, but Mrs. Li is the head of the family. , is the patriarch, or the three elders of the village, these words are loud and clear, and they are undoubtedly more reliable than Shaoshang.
So, Shaoshang nodded his head lower, hoping that everyone would not notice her.
Ling Budo glanced at the girl indifferently, smiled and said, "Don't be like this. If you talk about Gao Yi, the old man is the righteous Gao Hongyu. In order to make an exhortation, he just accompanies Cheng's wife and children to such a dangerous situation.
" Shang was unhappy at first, and then he felt as if, as if, as if...there was nothing wrong with this. Li Taigong can send someone to go around to ask for help, and naturally he can escape on his own, but the old man has been insisting on not leaving.
Not only was she grateful for Taigong Li's righteousness to the Cheng family, but she was unwilling to admit that she was a drag on her own, so she hesitantly said: "That...Uncle said that Taigong Li is his own family, and uncle will slowly repay the kindness. "
These words were very decent, and Taigong Li laughed loudly: "The young lady said it well! The two families are close, so what kind of love is not kind!"
Shao Shang lowered his head and secretly praised his wit.
Ling Budo glanced at her and said indifferently, "Pull the arrow."
As soon as these words came out, the Li family father and son and Shaoshang immediately held their breaths and hung their necks to watch. Who would have thought that the healer was sweating profusely, but still couldn't pull out the broken arrow.
It turned out that Ling Buxuan was in an emergency when he hit the arrow. In order not to disturb the morale of the army, he broke the tail of the arrow on his own, leaving only the palm-width outside of the shaft, which was covered with battle armor and a cloak.
But I don't know that the arrow that pierced the shoulder only exposed less than half an inch of the skin, and even the shaft of the arrow was stuck in the flesh, and there was nowhere to exert force when pulling it out. In addition, the arrow took a long time to hit, and the shaft and the flesh and blood had changed to a certain extent. The adhesion is so strong that the healer can't pull it out no matter what.
"Why not use pliers?" Li Wulang said.
The doctor sighed and raised the broken small iron pliers in his hand. A country doctor like him can at most pull a few thorns into the flesh of the wounded, how can such a powerful iron arrow be bitten.
There are only two ways to go.
Either go back to the barracks to find a military doctor, and find a huge long-handled iron pliers specially designed to clamp arrows; or fight poison with poison and push the broken arrow out with another arrow shaft. But the former is too time-consuming to return to the military camp immediately or to call the military doctor quickly; for the latter, Ling Budo has to suffer twice.
Ling Budo didn't hesitate, and immediately said: "A Fei, take an arrow for your brother."
Liang Qiufei drew a feather arrow from behind, and handed it to the scarred guard beside him tremblingly: "Young master, you have to endure the pain. Ah!"
Ling Budo ignored him and looked to one side, the girl in the blood-stained sackcloth stood there blankly, holding her left elbow in her right hand and a small, white and tender chin in her left palm, like a child She tilted her head and bit her lip childishly, not knowing what she was thinking.
He looked at the girl for a long time, and the Li family and all the guards fell silent. Only then did Shao Shang realize that everyone was looking at him, and he smiled embarrassingly: "The little girl has a plan, I don't know if it is feasible or not." After speaking
, she took a string of pearl shells hidden in her arms from her neck.
Dozens of beaded shells are hanging under the neck rope, and when they are slightly shaken, they are colorful. When shaken slightly, the 现现 is crisp and full of brilliance.
Shao Shang took out the dagger and cut off the neck rope, carefully poured the pearl shells into his pocket, only took the neck rope in his hand, and walked towards Ling Budo. Only then did everyone notice that the neck rope seemed to be made of several thin threads.
Others were still wondering, but Ling Budo knew what he meant and smiled: "Is this rope strong?"
Shao Shang hurriedly said: "I made it by hand, it is very strong and strong!" It
rained heavily that day, and it was wet and wet outside. In the cold, she and Wan Eqi hid in the corridor and panicked, so they found many brocade threads, gold threads, and even iron threads of different colors from the bottom of the press box. She taught Wan Qiqi to weave bracelets and cross knots, and the rest would weave long neck ropes to string bead shells.
She remembered very clearly that three flexible vermilion brocade threads, three black iron threads, and a shiny gold thread were able to lift even heavy pedestals and tables.
Shao Shang stood behind Ling Budo and used his slender fingers to carefully insert the neck rope into the flesh and hook it under the cluster of rusty arrows. She didn't dare to use force, she could only insert a little bit. Due to the proximity, the drawbacks are full of blood and rust, and the line of sight can't help but expand.
Ling Budo's body is tall and stretched, his bones are slender and powerful, his shoulders are as broad as a goshawk's wings, his waist is slender and strong, his back is straight, and his muscles are restrained. It's like a male model's arm, and just now, he even split the bandit leader in half with a knife.
After watching for a while, Shao Shang realized that his face was a little hot, and quickly moved his face away. The two-dimensional ones really couldn't compare with the three-dimensional ones.
Ling Budo felt itchy breathing on the back of his neck, and suddenly turned his head and said, "Is that Pearl Shell gift from my sweetheart?"
Who knows, Shao Shang sighed, "If only it would be good."
Ling Budoubt looked at her for a while, then turned around and hummed.
The pearl shells were collected by Wan Eqi outside. The two girls grinded them into various interesting shapes, and then strung them into necklaces, one for each person. Thinking about it now, if Wan Qiqi was a man, she would definitely marry. I don't dare to say that it is a fairy couple, but it is more than enough to be a husband and wife of a wolf, a tiger, a leopard and a thief. How perfect that would be!
"It's hooked..." Shao Shang breathed a sigh of relief, she felt that the hook was very firm, and now she only needed to pull the broken arrow out by pulling the neck rope.
Liang Qiufei couldn't help but said, "What if the cluster of arrows falls off the shaft and only one arrow is pulled out?"
Who knew that everyone laughed. Only then did Liang Qiufei think that if there is no arrow, the shaft can be pulled out directly from the front, and his face flushed.
Shao Shang was also very happy, but suddenly his right hand felt cold, but he saw Ling Budo pull his palm and wrap a snow-white brocade on it. Liang Qiufei wanted to come forward to pull the arrow, but was grabbed by his brother behind him.
Ling Budo looked at the girl, smiled and said, "Be careful, don't injure your hand."
Shao Shang was stunned for a moment, then nodded woodenly. In fact, she wanted to say that she didn't plan to draw arrows herself; she was a skilled worker and didn't do manual labor. However, seeing Master Li's still puzzled look, Shao Shang felt that maybe others might not understand, and he had to be a good person to the end.
She wrapped the neck rope a few times around her right hand wrapped in Jinpa, and her left hand pressed against the man's white and firm shoulders, holding her breath secretly, and then pulled it out in a rush, almost exhausting her strength to suckle. With the sound of sticky Zira, the broken arrow that had been dyed red and black was finally pulled out, and then the man's strong back tendons shrank rapidly, the coagulated wound ruptured again, and a thin blood flowed along the white slender His back slowly flowed down.
Shao Shang was taken aback by the amount of blood and let out a light 'ah'.
Ling Budo turned around, looked at the girl and said, "Does your hand hurt?"
Shao Shang shook his head quickly: "My hand doesn't hurt. Do you hurt?" The wound on your back is about to become a bloody hole!
Ling Budo smiled, and in an instant, it was as beautiful as the melting of winter snow. He said, "I don't feel pain." The
two were close at hand, and Shao Shang was caught by the beauty, and only then did he realize that his eyes were one-of-a-kind. A clear dark brown, like a beautiful amber in a crystal box.
She thought to herself that she had always been too sharp to the world. In fact, there were still many good people in the world, and they came to save their lives even when they were hurt.
The next time she sees Yuan Shen and Lou Yao, she has to be more polite. See how warm she is to this Lord Ling this time, how kind they are. Walking in the rivers and lakes is to form a good relationship, it will be good for yourself and the Cheng family!
The doctor Cheng, who was standing at the bottom, saw that the broken arrow had been pulled out, and was about to go forward for treatment. Who knew that Ling Buxuan's right hand on his lap was slightly lifted and shaken, and then he was caught by the two guards on the left and right, unable to move. .
The guards, including the lively Liang Qiufei, were all waiting quietly at this time.
In fact, these few conversations between Ling Budo and the daughter of the Cheng family were very simple and more normal, but for some reason, Li Wulang always felt that the atmosphere in the room was a little weird, as if it had a strange softness.
He turned his head to look at his old father and said with his eyes: "Father, do you think... it seems...
Li Taigong: Shut up and pretend you didn't see it.
The old man is very fond of it. The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, and there are so many people in the house, so they look at each other a few times to be afraid. What's more - Li Taigong looked at the man and woman at the top.
Ling Budo doubts that this person's heart is like a sea, he can't see clearly and can't tell; he's not a little lady... The old man's heart is happy, either he doesn't understand it at all, or he has the wrong idea.
