Chapter 323: Hope From the Wife
Although it was weak, Cui Sheng still had breath. read
Lu Bocheng breathed a sigh of relief and looked at him blankly.
The marshal in front of him seemed to have had his soul drained away, and his whole person was filled with a deathly aura.
The marshal who was in charge of the school field with firm command, commanded thousands of troops to be invincible, and led the army to fight countless victories. Whatever good things he got, he let his subordinates divide them first, and then he picked the remaining marshals. At this time, there was no sound. .
In Lu Bocheng's eyes, this is his infinitely respected elder, his superior officer, and his boss, Lu Bocheng.
In the past, I always scolded him, disliked him, and said that what he did was not good enough...
But now, he was like this, lying on a broken wooden board without even a blanket.
Lu Bocheng bit his lower lip tightly, trying to hold back his tears.
He turned around and left.
Gouwa saw him walking out and followed him silently.
"Gouwa, do you think we can't go south?"
Lu Bocheng didn't even raise his head, looking at the void in front of him with infinite sadness in his heart.
"Yes, it must be possible. My sister-in-law and my eldest nephew are still waiting for us at home." Gouwa nodded firmly.
"The general used to brag to me, saying how wonderful my sister-in-law is, how cute my eldest nephew is, and how my sister-in-law brought a whole mountain of people to eat, so there must be enough food for the three of us. When I get to the mountain, I eat lying down every day. I’m still waiting for my sister-in-law to introduce me to my wife.”
Lu Bocheng raised his eyebrows after hearing this.
"If we can go to the south and return to my wife, I will definitely ask her to find a good wife for you. Just look for a young and beautiful woman. There is a long list. You can choose as you wish. We will not accept anyone who is not satisfied. "
"That's it! If I'm not satisfied, I'll tell my sister-in-law and ask her to look for it again.
Lu Bocheng smiled and fell silent again.
Seeing his silence, Gouwa felt uncomfortable.
"General, how about I disguise myself as a woman and try again in the town we passed before."
"I went to the medical center secretly. I sold myself to him and asked him to give me some medicine on credit... No, I asked him to follow me quietly and help us look at the marshal's injuries. The marshal will definitely be cured after he gets treatment."
Lu Bocheng let out a long sigh.
He was chased and killed all the way while escaping, and all the people he brought out died.
The horses were also sold by them in exchange for food.
All the valuable things he had on him were sold. I was being treated for injuries in that town before, and I was chased to death. He almost escaped from the pursuers.
The three of them fled to this abandoned village and were at the end of their rope.
The last half a handful of rice today was cooked and given to the marshal.
If there was an emergency, he wouldn't be able to let the marshal have a full meal before leaving.
Tears immediately welled up in Lu Bocheng's eyes. He leaned up and tried to hold it back again and again.
But in the end I couldn't hold it in anymore.
A pair of tiger eyes suddenly rolled down two lines of tears.
When Gouwa saw it, he couldn't help but shed tears. He didn't dare to cry, so he covered his mouth and found a corner to squat and cry silently.
After a long while, Lu Bocheng wiped it on his face.
He said to Gou Wa: "Gou Wa, you keep an eye on the Marshal here. I'll go to the town ahead to see if I can think of some solutions. I have to find some medicine for the Marshal."
Gouwa hurriedly wiped his tears and stood up. He stood up in such a hurry that he almost fell down.
Stomped my feet...
Hey, boots?
"General, look!"
Seeing Lu Bocheng looking towards him, Gouwa raised his feet happily.
He said to Lu Bocheng: "General, these are military boots. The marshal gave them to me specially. They are made of very good leather and are waterproof! How much do you think you can sell them for? Someone should buy them, right?"
After hearing this, Lu Bocheng looked at his feet again. His boots were also good, better than Gouwa's.
So he sat down on the ground and was about to take off his shoes when something flashed past him.
what is it then?
correct! It's his dirty clothes!
His wife made him obscene clothes out of silk!
Lu Bocheng immediately got up from the ground and quickly pulled up his clothes with both hands.
"General, these clothes are not as valuable as the boots."
I have been chased all the way, and I haven't even changed or washed my clothes. My clothes are all scratched and torn. Who can I sell them to?
Lu Bocheng ignored him and took off two outer garments before taking off his yellowed garment.
"Gouzi, come here!" He was so excited that he forgot about it.
As Lu Bocheng spoke, he held the dirty clothes in his hands and started touching them everywhere.
When he finally touched a small bump, which was inconspicuous but different from other places, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"We have money!" Lu Bocheng said excitedly to Gouwa.
Before Gou Wa could react, Lu Bocheng pulled hard with both hands and took apart the entire obscene garment.
"Golden beans? Golden leaves?"
Gouwa saw the things scattered on the floor, and his eyes widened in shock.
"Quick, come and count for me. My wife said she sewed two hundred taels for me!"
"Two hundred taels of gold?"
"No. Two hundred taels of silver. I only had a dozen taels of silver at that time, and I left them all to my wife. These two hundred taels were earned by my wife when she left, and they were given to me for personal use."
Lu Bocheng said excitedly, with infinite emotion in his heart. He didn't want it at the beginning.
For almost five years, he had forgotten about it.
Unexpectedly, when he was at the end of his rope, he remembered the money his wife had hidden for him.
It is indeed a life-saving silver.
Lady...
"General, there are really two hundred taels!"
"Of course, my wife can still lie to me!" Lu Bocheng was very excited.
He gathered the two hundred taels of gold and silver beans into a pile, wrapped them in a rag, put them on his body, and put on his outer garment.
"Gou Wa, you take good care of the marshal. I'm going to the town ahead. I'll find a doctor for the marshal, buy some medicine, and bring you some food and drinks."
Gou Wa nodded: "Okay. General, you should stay away from people and don't get caught." He was very worried.
Originally thought that there was no way out, but he didn't expect that his sister-in-law who was far away in the south gave them hope again.
Gou Wa's heart came back to life.
Lü Bocheng responded, and hurried into the house again, put his finger under Cui Sheng's nose, and saw that he was still breathing, so he walked out of the house quickly.
He dodged all the way to the town ahead.
Ten thousand elite soldiers of the Fengxiang Army ran away, and the princes and grandchildren were also missing. The city was broken, and the bodies of the two supreme commanders were missing. They must have escaped.
When the news reached Wu Quanzhong, he could not sit still.
He was a man who could not tolerate any sand in his eyes.
When he hosted a banquet to entertain his colleagues, Mu Congke said in a drunken state, "A mere surrendered general is not worthy of being on equal footing with me." He chased after Mu Congke's inn and set it on fire overnight, trying to kill Mu Congke.
At this critical moment when he ascended the throne and was sitting on the throne unsteadily, could he let Cui Sheng and Lu Bocheng escape with 10,000 elite soldiers?
And then let them revive?
This was impossible.
So on the way to the south, layers of checkpoints were set up.
The officers and soldiers took the portraits of Cui Sheng and Lu Bocheng and looked for them everywhere.
Previously, Lu Bocheng took Cui Sheng to seek medical treatment in a town and was almost caught.
This time, Lu Bocheng was careful and pretended to be a down-and-out commoner all the way to the town.
Even if he didn't dress up, he would be no different from a down-and-out, hungry and cold commoner.
He hadn't eaten enough for several days, and his eye sockets were sunken. He scratched his head twice, and now he looked like a beggar.
Lü Bocheng dodged all the way to the town entrance, and saw that there was a roadblock at the town entrance. Several officers and soldiers were holding two small portraits to check the people coming in and out.
Lü Bocheng saw from a distance that it was the portrait of him and Cui Sheng.
Although the painting didn't look like him, it also had some charm.
Lü Bocheng gritted his teeth in hatred.
His eyes were fierce. Wu Quanzhong, he must kill him!
But he quickly retracted his eyes.
He couldn't look back. This time he had to enter the town. The marshal was still waiting for medicinal herbs to save his life.
Lü Bocheng walked towards several officers and soldiers...
