Denghuaxiao Chapter 173

Chapter 173 Mad Dog

The tranquility of the woods.

The air was filled with the warm and fishy smell of blood, and the splashing dewdrops on the grassland next to the spring turned bright red.

Lu Zhen desperately pressed against the sharp mouth that was pouncing in front of her. The gray dog was as ferocious as a cheetah and a jackal, howling low and rolling her to the ground.

There was a sweetness in my throat, and my whole body felt like it was going to be crushed.

The vicious dog excitedly lunged at her again, this time at her neck. Lu Zhu subconsciously used his arm to block it. The dog's mouth bit into her arm, and its sharp canine teeth sank into the skin, easily tearing out a **** **** in the skin.

Lu Zhuo suddenly turned pale.

“Well done for catching the tiger!” On the other side, Qi Yutai got off the horse and looked at the dogs rolling on the grass from a distance, his eyes red with excitement.

Grand Master Qi Qing used to love raising and fighting birds. He put two birds in a large birdcage and made them fight. This was called "rolling the cage to fight" until one of the birds' feathers fell off, his head was broken, and his blood flowed to the point of death. It will end only if you die.

Qi Yutai had seen bird fights several times before, but at this moment, he felt that the fight in front of him was much more exciting than other bird fights or beast fights.

The female medical officer is really weak, being ravaged like a white rabbit under the claws of a tiger.

Yes, White Rabbit!

Like the white rabbit that was killed by a tiger when it first went up the mountain, it was beautiful, slender, docile and well-behaved.

A beautiful woman, without a strong background to support her, is like a hare in the forest, whose throat will be bitten by a strong man at any time. Speaking of which, this woman is beautiful, and she is also a beauty. As the direct daughter of the Grand Master, her younger sister is as noble as gold, like branches and leaves, or a pearl in the sky. She is so noble that ordinary people would not even dare to look at her. But Lu Yan was just a lowly servant, and the same beauty was a disaster, a sin, and a burden to her.

　　What a beautiful woman, but she made her sister unhappy and could only turn into rotten flesh in the mouth of an animal.

Thinking of that scene, Qi Yutai sighed, what a pity.

The hunting dogs barked excitedly. Under the forest, Lu Zhu covered his head and face and curled up and rolled on the ground.

The hound refused to give up and rushed forward to bite again. She heard Qi Yutai's voice coming from not far away: "Bite her and don't let go!"

The hound got more and more excited after receiving the master's order. It bit Lu Zhu's leg and refused to let go. It must have been specially trained by Qi Yutai and regarded her as prey. Lu Zhu suddenly remembered that Lin Danqing told her when they were down the mountain that this mad dog had The story of biting a little girl of a farmer's family, saying that the mad dog ate half of the girl's face. Now while she was struggling, she understood the pain of the little girl. She was like tender flesh and blood in the vicious dog's mouth, allowing it to be torn apart. .

She fended off the fangs in front of her, and her eyes fell on the medical box that fell beside her due to the struggle.

There are poisonous powders and needles in the medical kit...

She gritted her teeth, kicked away the hound that was attacking her, stood up with difficulty, and stumbled toward the medical box.

As soon as her hand touched the medical box, before she could open it, the hound rushed up from behind and bit her on the shoulder. Lu Xu let out a groan and let go of her hand -

The medical kit fell down with a loud sound, and rolled down the **** and down the cliff.

A "dong-" sound.

Without a trace.

The grass path is deep, and the horse's hooves make a soft rustling sound when they step on the fallen leaves.

In the quiet mountain ridge, Long Wuwei's horse was walking down the mountain.

Without the excitement of going up to the mountains to hunt, the team returning seemed much calmer.

Duan Xiaoyan was riding on the horse and turned to ask the young man on the horse beside him: "Brother, do you really not want to treat the wound first? Why don't you look around and see if there are any medical officers who have gone up the mountain to take a look at you first..."

“No need.” Pei Yunying interrupted him.

An arrow hit him on the left shoulder. He had already pulled out the arrow. He washed it with some water on the mountain and sprinkled some golden powder on it. It seemed that he was fine. But Duan Xiaoyan always felt uneasy.

Prince Yuan Zhen was in a hurry to go down the mountain and did not want to spend any more time on the mountain. Naturally, Long Wuwei had no reason to stay.

"Okay, it's the same thing when we go down the mountain to the camp and ask the medical officer to see it." Duan Xiaoyan suddenly remembered something, "Let medical officer Lu show you! I saw her at the door of the hunting camp in the morning, but it was difficult to go there with the guard at that time. Otherwise, just say hello to her."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhufeng looked surprised: "She's here too?"

There are not many medical officers available for hunting, and most of them are old medical officers. Most of the young medical officers are from good family backgrounds - such good opportunities are unlikely to be reserved for ordinary people.

Pei Yun glanced at the two of them: "You are so concerned, why don't you go down the mountain and invite you to have a meal together?"

"OK!"

Duan Xiaoyan did not hear the sarcasm and clapped his hands happily: "Then I will go back and change clothes, but Medical Officer Lu is afraid of Gardenia and cannot take Gardenia with him..."

Speaking of this, Duan Xiaoyan raised his head and looked at the empty grass in front of him: "Hey, where did the gardenia go?"

Gardenia was very excited when she went up the mountain, but she had been eating and drinking in front of the temple for a long time, and she was not interested in hunting at all. After running around for most of the day, fluttering at butterflies and sniffing wild flowers, not even a mouse was caught. Duan Xiaoyan was so anxious that he racked his brains to find reasons to protect his shortcomings: "Gardenia is old and has given birth to another child. Having children makes people grow old. Very common!”

The sneer made Xiao Zhufeng reply coldly: "A loving mother often loses her son."

Just as he was talking, he saw a black dog suddenly appear from behind the forest in the distance, running swiftly towards the three of them behind the chariot, with something in its mouth.

Duan Xiaoyan was overjoyed and sat up straight: "Gardenia is back! What did he hunt? It's not small? Good Gardenia, let me see. Is this a badger or a rabbit? It seems to be a white fox. !”

The black dog was as fast as the wind. He pounced in front of the three people several times, rushed under the horses' hooves and shook his **** as hard as he could to claim credit.

The three of them were stunned.

What kind of white fox is there in that mouth? It's clearly a white medical kit!

Duan Xiaoyan blinked: "Gardenia, which medical officer's medical box did you steal?"

The black dog was wagging its tail excitedly, and Pei Yunying looked at the box in the dog's mouth.

The medical box is an ordinary medical box. It is very similar to the ones used by old doctors in medical clinics and medical officers in the medical hospital. There is no difference. There is a circle of hibiscus flowers embroidered on the strap, and the stitching is fine and delicate, adding a bit of elegance to the old medical box.

Pei Yunying's face changed slightly.

The medical box he held in his mouth looked a little familiar.

Lu Huo would go to the front palace every once in a while to conduct consultations with the guards. Even though it was just a nominal errand, she did it very carefully. The medical box was different from ordinary medical boxes. The straps were embroidered with hibiscus all over. I heard that because the straps were worn thin before, they were afraid of breaking in the middle, so Yin Zheng was reinforced by Lu Zhuo.

He remembered clearly that the hibiscus flowers on the belt were white, but now the hibiscus flowers in front of him were light red, as if they had been stained by blood.

He quickly reined in the rope, turned over and dismounted, and walked to Gardenia. When Gardenia saw her master coming forward, her tail waggled rapidly, and she relaxed obediently—

There was a "pop" sound, and the medical box hit the ground.

The medical box must have been dropped once. There were scratches all over the box, and it was bitten by gardenias. When it fell to the ground, the lid of the medical box finally couldn't withstand the tossing and cracked from the middle. A box full of bottles and bottles Cans were smashed all over the floor.

A silver ring rolled to the side of his boots.

Pei Yunying stopped and his eyes fell on the ring unconsciously.

It was just a very ordinary silver ring.

The color is dark and the workmanship is rough. If you put it in any jewelry store, no one will take a second look at it.

But it was so different, as if it had magic power, making it difficult for him to take his eyes away.

The young man was staring at the silver ring, then suddenly bent down and picked it up from the ground.

The silver ring was slightly rotated on his fingertips, revealing the inner ring. When he rubbed it, there was a shallow indentation, which seemed to be the character "一".

Pei Yun shook his hand and the silver ring on his fingertip almost fell off.

In an instant, many scattered pictures flashed through my mind.

Snowy nights, severe cold, ruined temples and lanterns.

The execution ground, wax snow, and a bonfire made of broken wood under the table.

The girl wearing a mask held the tattered medical box and stitched up his wounds nervously.

The wound was very crude and simple, as if it had been scrawled in a hurry when they first met, but it remained stubbornly and persistently left on his body for many years.

Her slightly disgusted voice seemed to ring in my ears.

"The favor of the palace commander is not worth much, but it is not as valuable as money."

All the fragmented pictures suddenly became complete at this moment, and gradually pieced together into a clear picture.

Xiao Zhufeng came up from behind and saw that he was staring at the silver ring in his hand. He couldn't help but wonder: "This ring is..."

Pei Yunying suddenly clenched the silver ring and asked the black dog in front of her: "Where is she?"

Gardenia barked happily, jumped far away, and ran towards a certain direction in the forest.

The young man got on his horse and turned its head.

Xiao Zhufeng stopped in front of him: "Where are you going? The Third Highness has not come down from the mountain yet..."

Pei Yunying shook the reins, and the horse galloped away, leaving only the corner of his flying robe, leaving a faint shadow like a flowing cloud in the forest. "Please protect me, I have something urgent."

“Okay! Capture the tiger, bite well—”

On the meadow in the forest, dogs and people were torn apart. The ferocious roar of the hunting dog easily enveloped the woman's weak scream, drowning it in the sound of the waterfall not far away.

A trace of regret flashed in Qi Yutai's eyes.

too weak.

The reason why bird fighting is exciting is that both sides of the "cage fighting" are equally matched. You come and I go, so it has the beauty of a **** fight.

However, if the disparity in strength is too great and it becomes a one-sided massacre, the interest will be greatly reduced by half.

This is exactly what happened between Lu Zhuo and Qin Hu.

The woman had tried to resist before, kicking, biting, struggling, and taking the opportunity to escape. However, this place was the "fighting ground" he specially asked the guards to find. It was spacious and quiet, with grass everywhere and not even a sharp stone. After running a few steps, he was chased by a hound from behind and bit him. This happened again and again for countless reincarnations.

Her persistent resistance surprised Qi Yutai, mixed with some inexplicable surprises.

Although it is a competition that is destined to end, a non-compromising and back-and-forth competition is far more exciting than a boring and boring competition that ends in one glance.

But time gradually passed, and the prey's struggle was gradually lost. More and more blood stains were left on the grass due to rolling. The fight was coming to an end, and it was almost the final stage of the hunt -

Bite the throat of prey.

He shook his head and pointed decisively in the distance: "Bite her to death-"

The hound roared excitedly, rushed forward again, and pounced on her neck fiercely!

Lu Zhen was thrown to the ground and lay completely on her back. She felt like a thousand pounds were pressing on her. The beast's teeth were very close to her head and face. Her arms were stuffed into the sharp mouth of the hound, forcefully refusing to let go. It keeps moving forward.

The hound also noticed that the person in front of her was getting weak and refused to let go. She howled and bit down hard. She was dripping with cold sweat and tried her best to resist with all her strength. She couldn't even make a moan. She struggled with the hound for a long time and it was on her body. The **** wound was torn open, and the smell of blood made the beast more and more excited.

Lu Zhen felt that his strength was rapidly draining away, and his body was gradually getting colder.

As a doctor, she knew very well that this was a precursor to death.

The strange thing is that by this time, she still didn't feel much pain, but she just felt discouraged and a deep tiredness came from the bottom of her heart.

very tired.

I'm really tired.

I really want to have a good sleep.

In the past years, when she was at Luomei Peak, there were times when she was tired, when she was searching for corpses in mass graves, when she was trying new poisons for Yun Niang, when the dark clouds were deflating in the heavy rain...

Every time she thought she couldn't survive, she would miraculously wake up in the end.

But this time it was different.

Her eyes were covered with a little warmth, and the blood from the wound on her forehead fell into her eyes. The bright red was like the plum blossoms all over the mountains and fields. She suddenly saw the shadow of Yun Niang, sitting under the tree and holding medicine. The bowl smiled at her.

“Xiao Qi,” she said, “come here.”

Lu Zhen closed his eyes.

It is said that people will have a flashback before they die, and they will see the person they most wanted to see during their lifetime.

She has seen many people who are dying like this, calling their family members who died young to come and pick them up, and smiling without regrets when they die.

But since she was about to die, why didn't she see anything?

Why not let her see her parents, brothers and sisters? Why is she still so alone?

Are they also blaming her for not going home earlier? If she had gone home earlier, maybe the Lu family could have escaped this disaster?

Or maybe they didn't want to recognize her when they saw her hands were stained with blood and her cold heart, so they didn't want to see her when she was about to die?

The hound's sharp fangs were deeply embedded in her arm, and the corners of Lu Zhuo's eyes were moist.

It reminded me of the day after Wu Xiucai's accident. The scholars on West Street spontaneously burned paper money on the street corner to appease the resentful spirits. Blind He walked down the long street holding a bamboo stick, scattering yellow paper and singing: There are many troubles in the world. Thousands... If you want to find a long ladder, ask God... Don't blame God for being unjust. Life after life has been predestined...

There are so many things to do in this world, and if you want to find a long ladder, ask God...

Yes, if there really was a long ladder in the world, she would also want to climb up and ask God.

Why are there always so many adversities, why are there always so many injustices?

Why is it them, why is it the Lu family!

When I was reading when I was young, the book always said: "Though a mean person is rich and noble in this life, he will inevitably fall; a loyal person will be destined to rise to prominence even if he is temporarily humiliated."

I have also read: "A house that accumulates good deeds will always have happiness; a house that accumulates bad deeds will have disaster."

In the end it was all false.

　　The mean person will still be rich and noble, and the bad family will not suffer any consequences.

And she was dying.

Lu Zhen raised his head and caught a bit of golden sunlight through the gaps between the trees. That bit of sunlight looks very warm, but it is very far away. When it falls on people, it also reveals an icy coldness.

All her strength was gradually losing, and the surroundings seemed to suddenly become extremely quiet. The voices of Qi Yutai and the guards carried to her ears along the wind.

“It's a pity to bite her to death like this, but who told her to make her sister sad?”

“As an older brother, of course I have to vent my anger for my sister.”

Taking out your anger on your sister?

Lu Zhen, who was lying in the forest, was at a loss for a moment, and suddenly understood.

It turns out to be this.

That's what it's for.

No wonder Qi Yutai would suddenly attack her. She had obviously been planning for a long time, but he killed her before she could find the best opportunity to take action. With his status, it would be easy for him to attack him, and the original intention was to vent his anger on Qi Huaying.

There is no humanity like Qi Yutai, who will sincerely feel sorry for his sister and regard her as his only weakness.

How ridiculous, how sad.

The younger sister has been wronged, and the elder brother should vent his anger on her.

Lu Zhen thought blankly that if Lu Qian was still alive and knew that she was so bullied by others, he would also vent his anger on her.

She is also Lu Qian's weakness.

Only those who cherish will have weaknesses, but she no longer has anyone to cherish.

She has no weaknesses!

A fierce light suddenly burst out in his eyes, and he didn't know where the strength came from. Lu Zhuo thrust her arm into the mouth of the dog in front of her, almost pushing her whole arm in. The dog was stagnated by the stuff, and she turned over and sat up to pounce. He pointed at the greyhound in front of him and bit the greyhound's throat!

That tiny bit of strength can't bite the opponent's throat, but it can make the beast feel pain. The greyhound frantically tried to get rid of her teeth, but Lu Huo held the dog tightly and did not let go, as if it had grown on him, while his other hand randomly touched the hairpin on the top of his head.

That hairpin and the flower needle of that hairpin were sharpened and fined by her. For countless nights, she speculated on the possible situation, holding the hibiscus branch and waving it at the enemy in her mind, just like before her eyes, she was facing the enemy. The quasi-dog's head thrust downwards—

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ification

Like a very slight sound coming from all directions.

The hound howled miserably and tried desperately to throw her off.

And she just held on to the dog tightly, as if she was holding on to her own ethereal, lowly fate that was floating to nowhere. She refused to let go no matter what, like a fallen plum peak dragging a corpse in a mass grave. Although the tips of the hairpins were sharpened, , it felt difficult when it fell on the body of the beast, like cutting the heart and liver of a cold corpse with a knife that was not sharp enough. The touch of chopping bones and flesh was so familiar. The blade spattered blood, but the blood was warm, and there was no pain at all.

She got a kind of pleasure in the ultimate madness, like a person drowning in a quagmire grabbing the only driftwood around her, but she didn't want to use the driftwood to swim to the shore, she just wanted to drag it and sink with it.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ification

Juchimai, Tianmen, Feishu, Xinshu, Tianshu, Baihui…

She rode on the vicious dog and stabbed it wildly again and again, with hot blood splattering all over her face.

Hounds and humans were biting each other, and it was impossible to tell whether it was a dog or a human barking, until the blood stained the grass all over the ground, and neither the man nor the dog moved.

The long wind blew through the vegetation in the forest, diluting the smell of blood.

Qi Yutai took two steps forward and stared at the mess in front of him with his mouth open. The greyhound was lying on the grass, its fur covered in blood, motionless. Qi Yutai felt something was wrong and called out tentatively: "Capture the tiger?"

Lu Zhuo raised his head suddenly.

Qi Yutai suddenly froze and did not dare to move.

The woman was covered in blood, and the light blue medical officer's robe she was wearing was stained with blood, and her original appearance could not be seen. Under her messy hair, her eyes were red and ferocious, with a fierce light shining.

At this moment, she looked more like a mad dog than the fierce, powerful beast on the ground.

A scarred, frightened, and desperate...

Mad dog.
