Before it got dark, the motorcade arrived at the inn. This was the place where they stayed last time. Everyone quickly packed up and moved into the inn. As soon as he stepped in, Qinglong looked at everything familiar and couldn't help but think of what if
Fiber.
I wonder what she is doing now? What will she think of herself after seeing her letter? Will she resent herself for not applying in person?
"Qinglong, what are you thinking about?" Shan Yuwu patted him behind him.
When Shan Yuwu shouted this, all his thoughts came back. He turned around and smiled apologetically at her and said, "I didn't think anything of it. You can go upstairs and rest."
Shan Yuwu had already seen what he was thinking. He was thinking about Chunyu Ruoxian, so she followed Cen Xue up to the third floor without disturbing him to reminisce alone.
This remote place in the countryside is naturally not as comfortable as in the palace, and the food is relatively simple. Helianzhi was originally worried that Cen Xue would not be used to it, but seeing how she ate with gusto, he finally felt relieved.
The next day, the group did not waste time and did not go sightseeing like last time. They walked along the official road towards Wuji Mountain. In fact, Cen Xue had no intention of seeing the scenery outside the carriage. She just wanted to follow He
Let's spend more time together.
Helianzhi always stayed in the carriage to accompany him, sometimes taking him on horseback, walking at the front of the team, and soon they had traveled three days. At this speed, they must be able to finish Wuji tomorrow night.
At the foot of the mountain.
"Zhi, hold me tight -" At this time, the two of them were on horseback. Cen Xue took one of his arms around her waist and asked him softly.
Helianzhi naturally obeyed the order, hugged her tightly, put his chin on her neck, rubbed her intentionally or unintentionally, and breathed warm breath in his mouth and said: "Remember the last time we rode a horse together?
What are we doing on horseback?"
The last time? Cen Xue couldn't answer his question. After thinking about it for a while, she turned to look at him in fear - "You, pervert!"
"Don't say that. We are husband and wife, and we have sex. This is normal, right, Xue'er?" He Lianzhi just wanted to tease her.
Cen Xue was reminded like this, and her whole little face turned as red as a monkey's butt, which made Helianzhi laugh.
A few feet behind him was the motorcade. The leaders Qinglong and Suzaku, Xuanwu looked at the two people in front of them curiously. I wonder what the king and queen were talking about, and they were talking so happily?
Cen Xue felt like she was being tricked by him, so she hit him in the stomach with her elbow, causing Helianzhi to eat the turtle and a mute face to eat the coptis, which made him feel indescribable pain.
Is it rare that he dares to attack his dear little lady? It's impossible, he can only lick his wounds.
Cen Xue was sitting in front of him. She couldn't hear any sounds behind her, nor could she feel any other small movements on his part. Did she hurt him? Or was she angry?
After being silent for a while, Cen Xue finally couldn't help but look back at him, but as soon as she turned around, she saw a hurt expression on his face...
"Zhi... What's wrong with you? Did it hurt you just now?" Cen Xue looked back at him apologetically, and touched the place where she had just attacked with her little hands, and rubbed it gently for him.
Finally getting her attention, Helianzhi held her gentle hand and said softly: "Don't ignore me anymore, okay, promise me..."
Cen Xue looked at him, nodded unconsciously, and leaned into his arms, but it seemed that he was the one causing trouble in the whole process. She didn't do anything wrong, right?
After thinking dullly, she finally gave it up. She could understand his mood, so she leaned into his arms obediently and sped up her steps forward.
On the second day, Helianzhi asked the team to speed up and make sure to reach Wuji Mountain before dark. If they couldn't reach it before dark, they would be in trouble.
Wuji Mountain is located in a mountain range on the border of Loulan. It is relatively remote. There are no homes all the way here. There is only a small border town at the foot of Wuji Mountain. If they cannot reach here before dark, they will have to sleep in the wilderness.
The climate is getting colder and colder now, and it is very unsafe to spend the night in the wilderness. It is hard to say whether there will be any birds, animals or wolves nearby. He cannot take the risk of letting everyone suffer, especially Cen Xue, who cannot be harmed at all.
"Zhi, why don't we let everyone take a rest?" It's been a whole morning, and everyone hasn't had a rest since they set off in the morning. Even if the people are not tired, the horses are tired from running.
Cen Xue looked out of the window, holding Helianzhi's hand with a pleading look in her eyes.
What He Lianzhi couldn't bear the most was her appearance, so he nodded and said: "Okay, you are the queen, you make the decision, but you can't rest for too long. We have to get to the foot of Wuji Mountain before dark."
"Well -" Cen Xue smiled sweetly, making Helianzhi unable to move his eyes away for an instant.
After driving all morning, everyone was tired, especially Coser. As soon as the carriage stopped, he got out of the car. The journey was so bumpy that he got off the carriage and sat on the lawn, breathing heavily.
Shan Yuwu helped Mu Yue come down to rest for a while. Seeing Ke Se's appearance, Mu Yue said jokingly: "Doctor Ke Se, can you still hold on with your old bones?"
Mu Yue's voice sounded behind him, and Keser turned around and saw that it was the two of them. He waved his hands and shook his head and said, "Oh, if this jolt continues, my old bones will really fall apart."
"This is not possible. I see this situation. We have to rush in the afternoon. We have to get to the small town at the foot of the mountain before dark. If not, we will have to sleep in the wilderness. It is freezing cold here.
, what should people do?" Shan Yuwu helped Elder Muyue sit down, while the maid took out snacks from the carriage for everyone to satisfy their hunger.
When Coser heard that there was still half a day of bumpy rides, he sighed, picked up a piece of snack and stuffed it into his mouth without saying anything.
Cen Xue had long heard Doctor Keser's complaints, and he and Helianzhi also walked over from the carriage in front, holding hands, and walked up to them together.
"King and queen," Mu Yue said politely.
"Sit down, it's going to be a bit hard today. Let's all take a rest. We'll be on our way later." Helianzhi didn't say too many polite words, he just remembered to tell them.
"Yes..." Keser said nothing and took the time to rest.
Cen Xue leaned on Helianzhi's side and said with a smile on his face: "I'm really sorry for making everyone work so hard."
"Queen, you're welcome. As ministers, this is what we should do. We don't dare to complain." Mu Yue said with a slight smile.
Half an hour later, Helianzhi asked Qinglong to gather people and prepare to rush to Wuji Mountain again. Ke Se sat on the horse and simply lay down. This lying position would make her feel more comfortable.
Time passed little by little. He Lianzhi didn't give anyone a chance to rest along the way. He walked forward in a hurry. Cen Xue leaned against him tiredly and came back, looking dazed and sleepy.
The sun was setting and night was coming quietly. They had not yet seen the town in front of them. At this time, a cry of "Ouch--" came from the mountain forest, waking up Cen Xue who was sleeping soundly.
"Zhi, what happened?" Cen Xue suddenly sat up and looked at Helian Zhi beside him, asking him with some fear in her heart.
"It's okay, it's just the wolves in the forest that are howling." Helianzhi said it easily, not wanting to scare her.
"Wolf? There are wolves around here? Where are they? Will they come to eat us?" Cen Xue knew that wolves usually appear in large numbers. If a large group of wolves came to attack them, what should they do?
Helianzhi knew that she was scared, so he hugged her and said comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. We passed through this mountain forest and will soon reach Wuji Mountain. We can now see the top of Wuji Mountain."
Cen Xue didn't believe it, so she opened the curtain and looked ahead, but the dense forest blocked her sight and she couldn't see it at all. However, she still remembered this forest. After passing this forest, it was still a short distance away.
The town is on.
With his protection by her side, the fear in Cen Xue's heart gradually calmed down. Qinglong, who was leading the way, looked at the sky and the howling of wolves at that time, and ordered Suzaku and Xuanwu to inform everyone and speed up their steps.
We have to rush through the mountains and forests here in the shortest possible time.
Although everyone kept complaining, but listening to the howls of wolves one after another, no one wanted to become the hungry wolf's dinner. They kept tightening the reins in their hands, clamped the horse's belly with their legs, and accelerated forward out of the dense forest.
In order to avoid thieves in small border towns, every household will close their doors early as soon as it gets dark. When a group of people came to the town, it was very quiet, as if it was a dead city.
