Chapter 6 Returning
Although the arrow hit the leopard, it missed due to the frightened mount. It failed to kill the leopard, but instead aroused its ferocity.
The crazy leopard rushed towards the fourth prince. At this moment, Xiao Zhen's bodyguards were blocked by the fourth prince's people. Those people only cared about preventing Xiao Zhen's people from chasing. In the chaos, there was a gunshot beside the fourth prince. They found an empty window, and by the time they reacted, the fourth prince had been bitten by the leopard and pulled off his horse!
Xiao Zhen didn't know all of this. The wind was ringing in his ears, and the scenery on both sides quickly retreated. The ordinary horse ran at a lightning speed.
Xiao Zhen knew this was not normal!
The horse was suddenly frightened not only because of the sight of the leopard, but also for other reasons. But at this time, Xiao Zhen had no time to think deeply. A cliff appeared in front of him, and the horse rushed him down without hesitation!
In the flash of lightning, a firework exploded in Xiao Zhen's mind. In the ultimate splendor, he saw another version of himself.
He is going to die!
No, he can't die yet!
Xiao Zhen used all his strength and jumped up from the saddle. He stretched out his hands and finally grabbed a branch protruding from the stone wall. However, the branch could not support his weight, and before his feet could find a point of strength, , with a click, the branch broke, and Xiao Zhen fell straight into the abyss like a sword submerged in the abyss
Xiao Zhen woke up three days later. He opened his eyes and saw a house made of stone. There were a few simple farm tools piled in the corner, and the air was filled with a faint scent of medicine.
Xiao Zhen exhaled a long breath. Everything was the same as in the previous life. He did not die. He was saved by the herb collector and regained his life.
Yes, Xiao Zhen remembered his previous life, and the dream that had haunted him for many years was the last scene before his death.
In his previous life, just after Xiao Yue died in his arms, he turned the mechanism and used the hidden gunpowder to perish together with the enemy!
A drop of clear tears slipped from the corner of his eyes, and Xiao Zhen lay there quietly, motionless.
After a long time, Xiao Zhen called softly: "Da Zhuang, Da Zhuang"
A young man trotted in and saw Xiao Zhen who had regained consciousness. The young man was very happy and shouted loudly: "Master, come quickly, he is awake!"
As soon as the words came out, the young man's eyes widened and he looked at Xiao Zhen in surprise: "Hey, how did you know that my name is Da Zhuang?"
Xiao Zhen smiled, you and I were born and died in the previous life, how could I not remember your first name?
"When I was in a daze, I seemed to hear someone calling Da Zhuang. It should be you, right?"
Da Zhuang smiled and nodded: "My grandfather must have called me, and you heard me."
An old man walked in. Even though he was separated by a lifetime, Xiao Zhen recognized him at a glance. This was Yao Shanbo, his savior in two lifetimes.
Yao Shanbo was proficient in medical skills, but for some reason he did not become a doctor. As long as Da Zhuang could remember, his grandfather and grandson lived in seclusion in the mountains.
In the previous life, not long after Xiao Zhen and Da Zhuang left, Yao Shanbo died unexpectedly.
In his previous life, Xiao Zhen also fell off the cliff like this, and was rescued by Yao Shanbo and Da Zhuang in this way. The difference was that in his previous life, he rested here for a month. A month later, he asked Da Zhuang to take his token to Chang'an in the capital. Princess Mansion, ask the mansion to send someone to pick him up.
However, Da Zhuang did not bring back anyone from the eldest princess's mansion, but instead brought Xiao Yue who was pretending to be a little beggar!
Only then did Xiao Zhen find out that Prince Liang was dead. Prince Liang's palace determined that the murderers of Prince Liang were Princess Jiayi and Prince Consort Xiao, and killed them at Wisteria Villa!
Not only that, Prince Liang’s Mansion also sent people to kill Xiao Su, the next head of the Xiao family!
In anger, the Xiao family activated their hidden troops and fought to the death with Liang Jun. In the end, the emperor betrayed the Xiao family and executed them all for treason. Xiao Zhen and Xiao Yue lived incognito and wandered around the world!
But twenty years later, the two brothers still died unexpectedly.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhen no longer had the intention to heal his injuries. He struggled to get up, but Yao Shanbo held him down: "No, you will have to lie down for at least five or six days with your injuries."
Xiao Zhen was pleasantly surprised and looked at Yao Shanbo with hope: "Will I be able to recover in five or six days?"
In his previous life, he rested here for a whole month!
Yao Shanbo shook his head: "How can you recover? When I say five or six days, I mean that you will be able to sit up in another five or six days!"
"It's been too long. Do you have any way to get me out of here earlier?"
Yao Shanbo looked at him, thought for a moment, then turned and left. Seeing that his grandpa left without saying a word, Da Zhuang was confused. He touched his head and comforted Xiao Zhen: "Don't worry, my grandpa's medical skills are very good. Last time, a monkey's leg was broken. He reattached the bone, and the next day, the monkey was able to climb the tree.”
As soon as Da Zhuang finished speaking, Yao Shanbo's dry cough could be heard outside the window. Da Zhuang was so frightened that he stuck out his tongue and blinked at Xiao Zhen.
Hope arose in Xiao Zhen's heart. In his previous life, he had heard Da Zhuang talk about Yao Shanbo's medical skills more than once. Da Zhuang said that Grandpa had a prescription passed down from his ancestors, and even broken bones could be healed by using that prescription. Well, it's a pity that Yao Shanbo failed to pass the recipe to Da Zhuang until his death.
"Dazhuang, good brother, can you help me?" Xiao Zhen said in a low voice.
Da Zhuang said hurriedly: "Yes, of course I can. You see, I am also idle when I am idle, right, hehe."
Xiao Zhen looked at Da Zhuang with wetness in his eyes.
In his previous life, Da Zhuang followed him through life and death, and finally died with him.
Compared with the "mountain owl" who was as calm as a mountain and decisive in killing in his memory, the current Da Zhuang was still an outspoken country boy.
Da Zhuang grinned with big white teeth and his eyes were shining like clear springs in the forest, pure and sweet.
Looking at the young Da Zhuang, Xiao Zhen was in a trance for a moment. A cold and cruel figure appeared in front of his eyes, holding a bloody sword, and the cold light in his eyes was cold and decisive.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The figure in the memory and the person in front of him gradually overlapped, then separated slightly, and finally disappeared. Xiao Zhen's eyes became clear again. The person in front of him was Da Zhuang, a sixteen-year-old Da Zhuang, clean and clear. in vain.
He's not the mountain owl who kills without blinking an eye, he's just big and strong.
"Dazhuang, what day is today?" Xiao Zhen asked.
Da Zhuang thought for a while: "It's either the second day of April or the third day of April."
Xiao Zhen's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Sir, what's wrong with you? Does your body hurt?" Da Zhuang asked with concern.
It hurt, of course it hurt. As long as he moved a little, he would feel bone-crushing pain in his body. However, compared to the pain of being unable to do anything about the tragic death of a loved one in his previous life, this little pain was nothing.
Everything in front of me is real, not a dream, but reality.
Xiao Zhen's smile became more genuine. He looked at Da Zhuang and said word by word: "You are still Da Zhuang, and I am still Xiao Zhen. Da Zhuang, do something for me."
In the capital, aristocratic children like Xiao Zhen would not carry money with them. Whether it was cash or banknotes, they would either let their entourage carry it or keep accounts. They could buy it in any shop. Keeping accounts here is also a kind of dignity.
But Xiao Zhen is different. For a child who has been running away from home since he was a child, he will always carry hundreds of taels of silver with him regardless of whether he has an entourage or not.
For example, when Yao Shanbo rescued Xiao Zhen, he found a purse on his body. Yao Shanbo did not open it, and the purse was under Xiao Zhen's pillow.
There were a few pieces of broken silver and a few golden beans in the purse. In addition, Xiao Zhen's arrow-sleeved robe that had been hung to pieces by branches also had a secret pocket sewn inside, which contained five folded sheets. A neat hundred taels of silver notes.
At this time, Xiao Zhen was glad that he had a good habit of carrying money with him.
