Dry food that is easy to carry has never been delicious, and it is rare for these two pampered people to swallow it.
Taking bites of dry food, Huangfu Hongfei would use the long stick at hand to stir up the fire in the fire from time to time to make it burn more vigorously.
Pressing his throat with his hand, Dongfang Xingyao, who was choked, immediately drank a large amount of water, and then he felt a little better. "You should also drink some, this dry food is really too hard."
After tightening the opening of the water bag, Dongfang Xingyao threw the water bag to Huangfu Hongfei.
"Wouldn't it be better if you eat slower?"
Reaching out to catch the water bag thrown by Dongfang Xingyao, Huangfu Hongfei didn't immediately unscrew the lid to drink. She put the water bag next to her and continued to play with the long stick in her hand, poking around in the pile of firewood.
After poking for a while, Huangfu Hongfei also finished the dry food in his hand, drank two mouthfuls of water, stood up, clapped his hands, and said: "I'll find some more branches, otherwise the fire won't burn for long."
In the mountains, it is always good to light a fire at night. There are many wild animals in the mountains, including snakes, insects, rats, ants, etc. If you want to spend the night in peace, the best choice is to light a fire.
, let it burn all night until dawn
While watching Huangfu Hongfei making the fire, Dongfang Xingyao was thinking whether these branches were enough. Until Huangfu Hongfei stood up and said he wanted to pick more branches, he immediately stood up too.
"Let's go together. If we go together, we can pick up more."
Dongfang Xingyao has never received such convenient special training since he was a child. No matter where he travels, he will always be followed by many people. Therefore, these trivial things in life are not his turn to worry about, which directly leads to
Because of his lack of understanding and incompetence in these basic survival skills
If Huangfu Hongfei hadn't been there, he would have definitely picked a big tree and jumped up to choose a fork to use as his bed.
"Let's go"
Huangfu Hongfei will not shirk Dongfang Xingyao's offer
There are coolies who voluntarily come to the door and are ordered around. She would be a fool if she doesn't use them.
Two people must move faster than one person. It didn't take long before they each came back with a bundle of dry branches, added a few dry branches to the fire, and threw the rest aside.
Huangfu Hongfei walked to the previous position and sat down. Her eyes were staring at the pair of burning flames without energy. Her thoughts had long since drifted back to Hua Chao Kingdom with the wind.
Dongfang Xingyao, who was guarding her, saw this and did not disturb her. Instead, he sat quietly beside her and looked at her with peace of mind, as if this face had endless magic power. When he saw her,
After the first glance, I couldn't help but be sucked in, unable to extricate myself.
Even Dongfang Xingyao, who has always been cold-tempered and arrogant, doesn't understand the situation. Why does he have the urge to protect Huangfu whenever he sees her?
Perhaps, it's because the name Huangfu Hongfei has already been deeply engraved in his life.
It's a pity that Hua Qinglian really ruined the image of Huangfu Hongfei in his mind! Until he came to Hua Chao Kingdom and met Huangfu Hongfei, although her name had always been He Lianqi
Qi But through this search for a doctor, Dongfang Xingyao has already understood who she is. Her identity no longer needs to be explained.
Listening to Huangfu Hongfei's gentle breathing, he kind of wished that time could stop here and spend time together in such silence. How pleasant it would be!
Only the real Huangfu Hongfei has such charm, and can attract the attention of others without doing anything, and capture the hearts of others without doing anything.
Dongfang Xingyao really didn't understand what possessed Huangfu Tianao. Why did he regard another stranger as his sister when his real sister was right in front of him?
With such a huge difference in personality, if it were him, I would never be able to believe that he was the familiar person in his memory!
However, Dongfang Xingyao never thought about whether he would still be so sure if he met his relatives again after being separated for many years.
The reason why he can see clearly now than Huangfu Tianao is entirely because he is standing in an absolutely sober position.
But Huangfu Tianao was in authority, so how could he not be confused?
Gradually, the night got late, and waves of tiredness came over. Huangfu Hongfei and Dongfang Xingyao were already very tired during the day, and they had no intention of taking turns to watch the night. Unable to resist their tiredness, they fell asleep deeply.
Fortunately, these two people are good at martial arts and can still pay attention to their surroundings while sleeping. As long as there is any movement around them, they will definitely wake up as soon as possible.
The night was deep, the fire was bright, the people were beautiful, and the strange feelings were sinking deeper and deeper in Dongfang Xingyao's heart. The heart that had only been tempted by a name and a rumor eight years ago found him again.
direction of beating
When he woke up from his dream in the middle of the night, he looked up and looked at Huangfu Hongfei curled up sleeping next to him. He was deeply relieved.
The next day, Huangfu Hongfei woke up and saw Dongfang Xingyao next to him with a pair of giant panda eyes. He was really shocked, "Didn't you sleep last night? How did you end up like this?"
Dongfang Xingyao's haggard appearance is really too disdainful.
The dark eyebags hang under the eyes, resembling a pair of panda eyes. Because he has been traveling for days, sleeping in the open air, and not getting enough sleep at night, his spirit is particularly haggard.
"I'm fine. Maybe I didn't sleep well last night, so..."
Dongfang Xingyao was embarrassed to admit that he didn't sleep well because he was too absorbed in watching Huangfu Hongfei. Anyway, there were many reasons that affected his sleep. He just let Huangfu Hongfei think about whatever reason he wanted. Anyway, Huangfu Hongfei
Fei can't think of the real reason
"Then, when we pass by the market town this afternoon, let's not leave until we spend the night, and then leave tomorrow?"
If you miss the market town that you can reach in the afternoon, you will have to sleep in the open air for several days in the wilderness. It is indeed not a good place to sleep.
Huangfu Hongfei thought that Dongfang Xingyao was not used to such a lifestyle. After all, she was a real crown prince, how could she be like her? Even a princess still had an unknown soul that was reincarnated from the future.
"Well, okay"
After getting up and tidying up, Dongfang Xingyao and Huangfu Hongfei started another day of galloping.
If they don't hurry up, they won't be able to reach the small market town in the afternoon. After dark, the small market town will close its door to the outside world. By then, even if you are the king of heaven and ask people to open the door, no one will.
reasonable
Market towns far away from bustling places always have one thing in common
Because there are few people and many ferocious beasts, after nightfall, the inside and outside of the market town are completely two worlds separated by a wall, with completely different levels of safety.
"When we get to the town, we'll replenish some dry food."
Huangfu Hongfei patted the package hanging on the horse's back and said
They don't have much dry food left and they just need to add some.
When he heard that he wanted to buy dry food again, Dongfang Xingyao's face twitched unconsciously. Growing up, the time he spent with Huangfu Hongfei was probably the only time he had eaten dry food, and probably in this life.
This is the most dry food I’ve ever eaten.
"Then, leave quickly"
It has to be said that Dongfang Xingyao's adaptability is still very good. After resisting reluctantly, he accepted this fact.
No way, who told them to choose a road with no cities along the way?
In a place without people, you can actually go hunting and pick some wild fruits to spice up the taste. Unfortunately, Huangfu Hongfei only knows how to eat and can't cook. Even if he catches some small animals or something, he can't bake that kind of temptation.
People's delicacies come
What's more, both of them didn't know much about grains. Apart from buying dry food for later use, they didn't know any wild fruits on the mountains. Even if they saw the red and attractive fruits, they didn't have the courage to pick one and try it.
One is the kind of food that cannot be eaten. If it is poisoned, it will be troublesome.
After going back, there are still very difficult things to face. Wouldn't it be even more troublesome if I got sick on the way?
They walked very quickly, and except for a break at noon, they basically didn't stop much. Finally, before the sun went down, they arrived at the only small town in this area.
They dismounted, pulled the reins, and led the horses through the city gate. The guards at the city gate interrogated them responsibly. After finding nothing unusual, they were released easily.
After entering the town, they first booked an inn and settled the problem of accommodation for the night before going to the horse sales place to prepare to replace the two horses they had.
If we continue to drive at such high intensity, these two horses will not be able to bear it, so we have to let them rest in this small town for a while.
It was already noon of the second day when we left the town. They were probably very tired from the past few days, so they actually slept until the morning before getting up. Then they asked the store owner to prepare a table of food, and then tidied up after eating.
, look at the sky again, it’s already noon
The two of them calmly led the new horses and left the town again. In the next few days, they would undoubtedly have to sleep in the open air again.
After rushing back all the way without stopping, Huangfu Hongfei and Dongfang Xingyao finally returned to the Imperial Capital of the Hua Dynasty three months after leaving the Imperial Capital of the Hua Dynasty.
Huangfu Hongfei did not choose to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion or the Imperial Palace. Instead, he found an inn in the Imperial City and stayed in it first.
Dongfang Xingyao did not immediately return to Tianyun Palace inside the palace, but stayed in the inn with Huangfu Hongfei.
He is waiting for his men. He is back and has shown up. His men will definitely look for the most suitable opportunity to see him and bring the latest information.
