The Taoist priests did not live here permanently, but when they returned to Wei State, they passed by the Tangluo Road and unexpectedly discovered the army on the road, so they temporarily hid at their foothold in the south of Taibai Mountain.
Therefore, supplies in the hut were scarce, such as insufficient containers for water.
When Qin Liang and others left early in the morning, they only found a water bag and a gourd.
But it happened to be a coincidence. That time Qin Liang took Yin Mo's head to sacrifice the injured village woman, and someone among them happened to see it. It was probably a Taoist priest who was using talismans in the village of Silizhou at that time.
Water cures people's diseases, and I encountered that.
So a few days ago, when the Taoist priest saw Qin Liang, he recognized him.
Master Lu allowed Qin Liang to put his hand into his lap and touch it, perhaps because the sacrifice to the village woman was very suitable to her liking. However, for a while, nothing was done, which made Qin Liang even more miserable.
Qin Liang and others followed the route described by the Taoist priests and wandered in the valley until the afternoon, and finally found the valley at the southern foot of Taibai Mountain. No soldiers were seen, and the Shu army had indeed retreated.
Soon a few people found a small stream and immediately went up to refill the water. The three of them were really thirsty, so Xiong Shou was not willing to throw away the water bag containing mixed urine.
Xiong Shou was cleaning the water bag by the stream. But no matter how many times he washed it, Qin Liang would definitely not want to drink the water in that water bag.
There was a tree by the stream. Xiong Shou leaned the dirty water bag against the trunk of the tree, squeezed it with another water bag, and sprayed water into it, as if it were a water gun. He poured a lot of water into it, and Dirty
The water bag was full, but he continued, letting the water flow along the trunk of the tree.
"No need to clean up." Qin Liang greeted, "Next, take the Tangluo Road, not the small road."
The group arrived at Taibai Gate that day and then went up Luogu Road.
After leaving Luo Valley, the three finally caught up with a Wei army. Qin Liang borrowed a horse from the general and sent Xiong Shou to set off immediately and return to Luoyang to report the news.
Qin Liang and Yang Wei are going to Chang'an City.
On the open and flat land, the palaces, towers, and Chidao Street of Chang'an City are all in front of you. Qin Liang came to Chang'an again, and his feeling was very different from the last time. He no longer felt that Chang'an was deserted, but felt as if he had returned to human society.
Feelings. Probably only in places where people live in groups can they have easy access to food and water, a relatively comfortable living environment, and a sense of security that they will not face life threats at any time.
As soon as he entered the city gate, he stood in the city, looked back around, and took a deep breath of the city's atmosphere with emotion.
I heard that Cao Shuang is still in Chang'an, but Qin Liang wants to go to the Governor's Mansion to see Guo Huai first.
When Guo Huai saw Qin Liang in the front hall of the mansion, his eyes were full of surprise, as if he couldn't believe that Qin Liang was still alive. Even a veteran like Guo Huai would show his emotions on his face when he was not mentally prepared.
.
Qin Liang was not only alive, but also alive and well. Apart from the skin wounds scratched by thorny branches, Qin Liang had no injuries at all.
Guo Huai looked at him, nodded and said, "Just come back." His tone was still smooth and official.
Qin Liang suppressed his anger and finally did not have an attack. He said: "Fortunately, I was lucky and saved a life."
Guo Huai glanced at him and said seriously: "I shouldn't have let Zhongming lead the troops. Your great-aunt still blamed me, saying that your king became a widow less than two years after he left the cabinet, and she didn't know how to explain it.
On the battlefield, life and death are matters between a fingertip, so you must be cautious."
Qin Liang nodded and said: "It makes sense."
At this time, Guo Huai called the guards and took Yang Wei to settle down and provide meals.
When there were only two people left in the hall, Guo Huaicai said in a deep voice: "The matter is over. If Zhongming can come back alive, he will be rewarded for his contribution."
Qin Liang was silent for a moment and said: "Finally, there is no danger."
Guo Huai waited for a while, and when he saw that Qin Liang did not question about the reinforcements, he stood up and said, "Zhongming is also going to take a bath and change clothes, and eat some food. I will go see your great-aunt later and let her see it with her own eyes, so that she can feel at ease."
From what Guo Huai said, he was probably just worried about the relationship between his relatives and was afraid that Qin Liang would come to the Wang family and say bad things, so he asked the Wang family to come forward to appease him.
As for official affairs, it seems that Guo Huai is already like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water. Things are a bit complicated, and Cao Shuang is not very reliable in his work. Guo Huai and Qin Liang should both know that.
Qin Liang thought for a long time, and for a moment it seemed that there was really nothing he could do to Guo Huai, so he could only suppress all his emotions.
Under the arrangement of the guards, Qin Liang moved into a wing outside the palace. He packed up all the tatters and dirt on his body, stuffed them all into a bag, and then had a meal.
After a while, a maid came to invite him to the inner house. She should be someone sent by the Wang family.
When Qin Liang entered the gatehouse, he saw Mrs. Wang coming over. Mrs. Wang looked Qin Liang up and down, with a look of surprise in her eyes. Her emotions seemed much more real than those of Guo Huai. Guo Huai said earlier that her maternal aunt was worried
Those words about not being able to face Wang Lingjun may be true.
"You go down, there is no need to bring soup in." Wang waved her hand, and then said to Qin Liang, "Let's go to the attic. I have something to say to you."
Qin Liang said: "My aunt is worried."
Mrs. Wang breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "We are all very happy to see Zhong Ming again."
The two of them walked one behind the other to the place where they had dinner last time. After getting on the platform and crossing the threshold, they then walked up the wooden stairs to the attic.
Qin Liang walked behind and couldn't help but take a few more glances at Wang. Wang was wearing a soft satin robe, and the summer material was very thin. Qin Liang suddenly felt that she could maintain her figure well. Her walking posture was dignified, but because of
The proportion of the waist to the waist will naturally twist when taking steps. The skin of the Wang family seems to be white, and the skin on the Wang family's tall and straight neck is very fair.
He suddenly remembered scolding Guo Huai secretly. Now that he was in front of him, more specific details could not help but emerge in his mind.
"My great-uncle Qing also has difficulties." As Wang said, she suddenly turned her head and glanced at Qin Liang.
She was stunned for a moment, then kicked the wooden ladder and threw her body forward. Qin Liang subconsciously stretched out his hand to pull her, and Wang leaned back again, her back directly pressed against Qin Liang, almost missing Qin Liang.
She was thrown off the wooden ladder. Wang hurriedly tried to break free, but was already held by Qin Liang.
Wang said in a deep voice: "Are you crazy?"
When Qin Liang heard this, he let her go.
When they came to the attic, the two of them looked at each other. Wang seemed to have prepared a lot of excuses for Qin Liang before, but now she couldn't say a word.
Wang's eyes dodge and her breathing was uneven. She reached out to push the wooden window open, but Qin Liang suddenly hugged her back. She put her hand on the wooden window and finally did not open it.
After a while, Qin Liang suddenly remembered a small incident when he was still in the Qinling Mountains, which was the scene where Xiong Shou cleaned the water bag. Immediately afterwards, there were many scenes on the battlefield and on the way to escape. I thought he could calm down.
The right blood star, scenes of life and death, flashed by in a turbulent way, and it was at this moment that he seemed to release his emotions all of a sudden.
Mrs. Wang put down her deep clothes, then stuffed a bunch of stuff into Qin Liang's sleeve pocket, and whispered: "Take it out and throw it away, keep the cuffs tight, there is a smell." At this time, Qin Liang said angrily: "I'm sorry.
A. Actually, I think the Wang family are very nice. In any case, you are innocent and I should not treat you like this."
"Go quickly!" Wang urged.
Qin Liang had no choice but to open the latch of the small room, quickly walked to the stairs, and then went down. There was no one in the hall. The maids may have thought that Mrs. Wang was talking about something secret, so no one dared to come in.
He walked alone along the corridor towards the gatehouse. The maid not far away gave him a puzzled look. He ignored it and went out of the gatehouse directly, and then went to the side room where he had bathed and eaten.
After hiding the contents of his sleeve pockets in his luggage, Qin Liang lay down on the couch and fell into a deep sleep.
When he woke up, he suddenly remembered what happened in the afternoon. He couldn't recover for a while, and he was still wondering if he had had a dream.
In the evening, someone actually came to ask Qin Liang to go to the inner house for dinner. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and returned to the courtyard again, feeling suddenly in a trance.
Moreover, Guo Huai did not come back for the time being, and it was Wang who greeted him again, but this time there were two maids by his side.
Several people arrived in the hall, the maids also left, and the atmosphere suddenly became silent and embarrassing. Wang finally pretended to be nonchalant and said, "When will Zhongming return to Luoyang?"
Qin Liang said: "After meeting with the general tomorrow."
There was another moment of silence. Perhaps Wang felt that her resistance was not firm enough, so he explained in a low voice: "In the past few years, he has only gone to two young concubines."
Qin Liang was just about to speak, but he noticed that the light at the door dimmed slightly, and then Guo Huai strode into the door. Qin Liang did not speak anymore, and casually stood up and bowed to Guo Huai. When Guo Huai saw this, a smile suddenly flashed in his eyes.
He seemed very satisfied with Qin Liang's etiquette.
Guo Huai said: "We said in Tang Valley that Zhongming is used to the taste of Taiyuan. He can ask your great aunt to cook more meals."
Qin Liang said: "My grandpa doesn't mind that I eat too much, so the servant would be more respectful than obey my orders."
After hearing this, Guo Huai understood and laughed "haha".
