The crescent moon hung in the sky, and the night was eerily quiet. Occasionally, the roars of wild beasts broke the silence of the night.
Mo Yichen moved his numb legs. The woman in his arms grunted uneasily and pulled the corners of his clothes tighter. Mo Yichen simply let her rest against him and stopped moving. This little fool, these days
I'm really exhausted. I've been sleeping since the afternoon and haven't woken up until now.
She gathered up the fox fur cloak covering her body and added some firewood to the fire. The fire started to burn, and the orange-red firelight reflected Ye Luo's peaceful sleeping face.
Ye Luo opened her eyes, blinked, and hurriedly closed them again. Her little face looked even redder under the red firelight. Didn't she lie on Mo Yichen and sleep all day?
"Get up when you wake up." Mo Yichen opened his eyes and looked at the woman pretending to sleep in his arms.
Ye Luo kept her eyes closed and refused to open them. Thinking of her feats of the day, she first confessed loudly, and then hugged him tightly and slept on him for the whole day. It was really embarrassing. She didn't hear anything, nothing.
Hearing this, his head shook like a plucked drum, and he suddenly realized that he had done something stupid again.
"We've been hungry for a long time, so we have to eat something. We have to travel all night." Mo Yichen's voice contained an endearing tone that he didn't realize he had.
"You know, weren't you asleep just now?" Ye Luo opened her eyes and jumped up. A gust of cold wind hit her and she couldn't help but shiver.
Mo Yichen shook his head, picked up the cloak, put it on Ye Luo with his own hands, and then carefully tied the belt on the collar for her. He picked up the roasted hare meat from the fire and handed it to Ye Luo along with the water.
fall.
How could he dare to sleep? Even though he had sprinkled insect repellent powder around him, he still felt uneasy. With his eyes closed, he was always paying attention to everything around him. With her around him, he should be more careful than before.
Ye Luo was not polite. He took the food from Mo Yichen and ate it hungrily. She still looked like the young lady in the past. It should be said that the eldest lady of the Ye family has never been a boudoir lady, otherwise she would not be comfortable.
I couldn't sleep on the bed, so I ran here and the sky was like a covering and the earth was like a bed.
"Where are Binglu and Ji Ting?" A certain woman finally thought of her maid after eating and drinking.
"I...I asked Ji Ting to take her away. She should have returned to the town by this time." From the moment she woke up, everything was destined to return to the way it was before.
"Oh." Ye Luo stopped talking and sat by the fire to warm himself. The thick fox fur cloak still couldn't resist the cold.
"Let's go. The road behind may be more dangerous. You'd better follow me step by step." In the afternoon, he carried the sleeping Ye Luo and performed Qing Kung for a long distance. Judging from the distance of the two of them, tomorrow morning
You will enter a place where the Li tribe has set traps to prevent outsiders. That is where the real danger lies.
Ye Luo stood up, watched the white figure put out the fire, watched him leave in front of her, and then said after a while, "Mo Yichen, I promise you, when you return to the capital, I will make it clear to the Queen Mother that we
Our current relationship, so let’s get along well first, okay? Why do you have to use the word ‘this king’ to push me away.”
"Okay." Mo Yichen turned his back to Ye Luo and couldn't see his expression clearly.
"Mo Yichen, thank you." Ye Luo followed up with a smile, pulling Mo Yichen's sleeves affectionately, like a lost child, holding on to his only support.
Mo Yichen, as long as I don't leave you, you will still be you...
"Yeah." Mo Yichen let Ye Luo pull him.
"Do you know what I want to thank you for?"
"I don't know."
"Mo Yichen, if I don't know, you just um, hum... Mo Yichen, thank you, thank you for letting Ji Ting help me take care of Binglu..."
"You're welcome. If you take her with you, you will have to take care of one more person, which will be more dangerous." Mo Yichen answered Ye Luo rationally.
Although she did not deny that what Mo Yichen said was true, she felt extremely unhappy. This man was so stubborn that he admitted that he was trying to help her. "Mo Yichen, why didn't you send me back with you?"
"you……"
"I know, you will definitely say that you are the daughter of General Ouyang. If there is something wrong that you can't explain to your father, and you are unconscious on the way back, what will happen to your triangle cat skills?
It’s just to cause trouble, so I reluctantly keep you, a burden, with me, right?”
"yes."
"Okay, you...you..."
The voices of the two people became farther and farther away, and the lonely white figure listened carefully to the chirping voice of the woman next to him, with a smile that no one noticed at the corner of his mouth, hiding in the darkness.
Ye Luo was originally a quiet person, but this time she kept talking from dusk to dawn. She didn't even know what she said. She just wanted to listen to his voice to make sure that she was not alone in this place.
In the strange forest.
"Mo Yichen, what did I just say?" Ye Luo took a sip of water and threw the water bag to Mo Yichen. He should naturally hold the heavy items.
"You're asking me if I've been to this place before?" Mo Yichen accepted the water bag appointedly.
"Oh, then let me ask you, have you been to this ghost place before? Why are you so familiar with the terrain here?" Ye Luo found that walking around, all the trees were basically unchanged. She sometimes
I wondered if they were lost, but they turned around after following him back and forth.
"Well, I came once."
"Ah, have you really been here? What are you doing here? I understand, the last time you came here was definitely not at this season. You should have prepared an antidote to the poison of the miasma, but you didn't know that the season was different.
The poison of miasma can change, so your medicine is of no use at all, and Ji Ting will be poisoned and go crazy."
"You must still want to ask why you are okay. This time you really have to thank me. If I hadn't given you a magic medicine that can detoxify hundreds of poisons and revive the dead, you would
She's just like Ji Ting. What do you think, I am so interesting, this young lady, that pill was specially prepared for me by my master, there is only... just... one... in the world..." Ye Luo covered her mouth and looked back at the black man standing there.
Mo Yichen had a beautiful face.
Woo hoo, Ye Luo felt like she was really on the verge of tears. She had indeed spoken too much today. Bah, bah, bah, too many words lead to mistakes. She actually said them out loud.
He was thinking about how to explain to Mo Yichen. If it was involved that he saved him from a cold attack on the road that day, wouldn't his identity be known to him?
Brother Chen, if you knew that I was the Luo'er who depended on each other when you were a child, would you...
Ye Luo smiled bitterly, even if he knew what he could do, he still wouldn't like himself.
