Chapter 41
These days at the foot of Mengshan, fighting with Aunt Zhao, fighting with Zhao Lingling, opening wine shops, buying land deeds, robbing the rich and helping the poor... There are joys and angers, and there are thrills and dangers.How good it would be if he could go on like this forever, forget his identity, forget the past, and stop taking revenge.

But the bloody scene of her father and elder brother being beheaded at the Meridian Gate only appeared in her deepest dreams, waking her up again and again from this mediocre and ordinary life.

"I still have a lot of things to do, I don't want to burden you." She turned her eyes away from Gu Zhiyuan's face, staring at the darkness not far away.

"I'm not afraid of being implicated by you." Gu Zhiyuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "I know you have secrets hidden in your heart, even if you have a hundred secrets, it won't bother me or scare me away."

"But I don't want you to get involved." Meng Xiaoshao clenched her silver teeth.

"But I want to interfere. In case something happens, I can save you." Gu Zhiyuan smiled.

"You!" Meng Xiaoshu was so angry that he threw off his hand angrily, and sat on the straw, "Don't bother me, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"

"It's okay, I don't want to bother you." Gu Zhiyuan also sat down, a shoulder away from her.

Meng Xiaocom tried her best to clear away the troubled thoughts in her mind, and quietly analyzed the current situation.If that Duan Taizhen was intentional as Gu Zhiyuan said, then I don't have to worry too much.But if not, Mrs. Wang and the others will definitely be implicated as well.

After thinking for a while, she had a thought, and shouted outside: "Prisoner, prisoner!"

"What are you doing?" The cell boss strode over and looked at Meng Xiaosuo coldly.

"I want to eat." Meng Xiaocom folded her arms around her chest, her expression soaring.

"Isn't this rice?" The jailer pointed to the two bowls on the ground, and there were only four buns in the bowls, which were what Meng Xiaoshu and Gu Zhiyuan ate for a day.

"It's too hard." Meng Xiaoshu shook her head dissatisfied.

"Where do you think this is? This is a prison cell! Are you the one to pick and choose?" The cell boss yelled angrily, then turned and left.

Meng Xiaocoma looked at his back, thoughtfully.

That Duan Tai was careful, maybe he was afraid that things would be revealed, so he told the prison chief early not to treat himself and Gu Zhiyuan preferentially.Of course, there is another possibility that Gu Zhiyuan's guess is not true.

On this day, after eating the elbow, Meng Xiaosuo, who was so hungry that her chest was stuck to her back, had no choice but to gnaw on the hard cornbread.Although Gu Zhiyuan looked like a rich man at first glance, he didn't dislike him at all, and instead ate very sweetly.

At night, both of them were a little sleepy.

Gu Zhiyuan looked at the yawning Meng Xiaosuo, and calmly divided the straw into two piles far apart, and lay on the smaller pile by himself.

Looking at his well-defined side face, Meng Xiaosuo seemed to have an invisible string in her heart, which was gently plucked, and she silently slept on her side on the more pile, with a thousand turns in her heart.Closing his eyes, Gu Zhiyuan's warm smiling face appeared in front of his eyes, which could not be lingered from beginning to end.Gradually, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, very shallow, like the ripples caused by the gentle breeze stroking the surface of the water.

The watchman walked past the cell, bringing Night Breeze from the street to the alley.

It was early autumn at this time, even though he was sleeping with his clothes on, Gu Zhiyuan still felt a little cold, besides, he was so full of thoughts in his mind that he couldn't fall asleep at all, so he simply sat up and stared quietly at Meng Xiaosuo who had fallen asleep peacefully.

The moonlight streamed down from the tall window, just falling on her face, causing two light shadows to be cast on the eyelashes of the crow's feathers.

The scar on her face was originally caused by an allergy to dead grass.Things have been complicated for a while, and I forgot to apply dead leaf grass juice. At this time, the scar has faded by eight or nine points, and it seems to be slowly fading at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Under the hazy moonlight, this sleeping face is like a dream. The forehead is as smooth as porcelain, the long eyebrows are as light as smoke, and the curvaceous cheeks, especially the slight smile at the corner of the mouth, are simply beautiful. People can't believe this is real.

Gu Zhiyuan looked at him, he couldn't help feeling a little crazy, and he came back to his senses after a long while, thinking: let the cell chief call Duan Tai tomorrow, and let the two of us go out.

The night wind was extremely cold, blowing in through the small window, making him shiver slightly...

The next day, when Meng Xiaocoma woke up, Gu Zhiyuan was still sleeping quietly, lying on his side with his knees tucked up, his brows slightly frowned, as if he was thinking about something in his sleep.

Someone has already brought today's food, but there are still four corn buns, which seem to be a bit smaller than yesterday's.Meng Xiaoshao killed one with three blows, five cuts and two cuts, but her stomach was still empty, and she was about to eat the second one when she suddenly heard a groan.

Looking around, Gu Zhiyuan, who was sleeping on the straw, still had his eyes closed, his lips were a little pale, and his brows were getting more and more wrinkled.

"What's wrong with you?" Meng Xiaoshu hurried forward to touch his forehead, and was startled by the heat.The day before yesterday, she saw Gu Zhiyuan and Duan Tai drinking in the pavilion, after returning, she said to herself a few words like "don't reveal your identity", but the next day, Gu Zhiyuan was arrested and imprisoned because of this; Yesterday, she casually said that Gu Zhiyuan must be ill, but when she woke up, she actually saw that he was not feeling well and his forehead was hot.

Could it be that he is really the legendary crow's mouth?

Meng Xiaosuo hastily tore off a strand from the corner of her clothes, soaked it with water from the pitcher in the corner, and applied it on Gu Zhiyuan's forehead.

With a sudden chill on his head, Gu Zhiyuan opened his eyes in a daze: "What's going on?"

"You have a fever, this time it's real." Meng Xiaoshu said, and brought over the buns, "Are you hungry, eat a little?"

Gu Zhiyuan shook his head, he only felt his temples throbbing non-stop, every time he jumped, he hurt every time, his whole body was so hot that he wished he could soak in cold water.

"If you don't eat, you'll just starve to death." Seeing him dying, Meng Xiaoshu couldn't help but get angry, saying this, but slowly tearing a cornbread into small pieces with both hands, hello to his mouth.

Gu Zhiyuan barely ate some, his eyelids weighed a thousand catties, and his mind became more and more confused.

When he was in the capital, he lived a life of rich clothes and fine food, and it can be said that he had never suffered any hardships.On the way to Mengshan, I met a group of bandits. They were separated from their bodyguard Li Wutao while fleeing. They walked hungry in the mountains for several days until they saw the two big eyes staring at the trap dug by Meng Xiaosuo. When the pheasant was eaten, I lit a fire and had a full meal.

It's not that he is not good at martial arts, but that catching prey is indeed a technical job.

After those few days of ups and downs, his body was already a little weak. After recuperating for a while, he finally recovered a little bit, but he was imprisoned again.

It was early autumn and it was cold at night. How could straw be better than bedding?In just one night, he caught wind and cold.

Thank you for the support of the old breeze blowing the old city°.
