"Ahem, ahem," the man woke up, and he let out an unbearable cough, but the sound didn't seem to disturb the bruised woman beside him.
He slowed down, and soon realized what had happened, and the bloody storm last night seemed to be still vivid, which made him have some scruples.
He frowned, and stroked the cheek of the pale-faced but still beautiful woman beside him, and shook her lightly, trying to wake her up, but his actions were quickly stopped by the moment it inadvertently raised its eyes.
It was a deserted city, the water was dry and covered with yellow sand, and the half-dilapidated and decaying gate at the foot of the city was swaying back and forth with the wind and sand, so that the knocker on the door that was about to fall off kept flapping it and making a tinkling sound, as if to remind the people of the past here that there were guests from afar.
The scorched sand and rotten stones surrounded every inch of the land, and at the man's feet was an uninhabited frontier city, its color was yellow, earthy yellow, and full of earthy smell.
The man looked at the ruins of the place, frightened by the so-called city that did not even have a complete house, and at the age of sixteen he carried so much that he should not have carried at his age, the glory of empire and the worthless and meaningless vanity, the inducement of the struggle for power and the vague promise of the future.
Now in front of him there is only such a city and the woman who is still sleeping at his feet, he said to himself: "It turns out that my father and sister asked me to guard such a deserted place, what to talk about for the lonely and worrying, what to talk about the domineering side!"
"He seems to be getting more and more atmospheric."
It's all liars, liars!
” The "General" woman's faint voice calmed him.
Fei Yue stood up with her body propped up, looking at everything in front of her, and understanding what Huang Zhuo was thinking, she spoke: "Even if your three thousand men and horses arrive here, what can they do, how can such a city be defended, is there still a need to defend it?"
” "Even if you can't keep it, it's the king's command, how can a son of man disobey it!"
Xiao Zhuo said and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"I've spent too much energy using the Void Escape Method, and I'm smiling!"
"I didn't expect you to be able to escape from the void, but I don't know where you learned!"
Fei Yue said.
"It was my sister's maids who taught me, they said that Jindui City is far away, and the army is sinister, so I have practiced this method, and fortunately I can protect myself at a critical moment, but I didn't expect that now I really arrived at Jindui, but it is a pile of rotten stones and weeds, and three thousand strong troops have not returned, how to explain!"
Huang Zhuodao.
"It seems that your sister's maid is not idle, this empty escape method is the best magic of the inner family, it is more precious than the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and it is not easy for others to teach, although I have saved my life now, but the injury has been to the bone, and the mana has been greatly reduced, so I can only find a place to rest for a while, and then make plans!"
Fei Yue coughed up blood again.
Xiao Zhuo said: "You once said that there are ghost soldiers stationed in this Jindui City, where are you going to rest." ” "Every night of wind and snow, the ghost soldiers arrive, if the weather like this should be fine, but the desert desert and sand climate is unpredictable, it is better to be alert."
The two of them chose a shelter from the wind and rain in the chaotic stone piles of Jindui City, and after cleaning up, Fei Yue wanted to meditate and heal, and said to Xiao Zhuo one by one: "When I meditate, no one can disturb me for three days and three nights, if my meditation is broken, it may endanger my life, and you need to take care of it more, if there is any change, you can run for your life, and you don't have to be tied to me anymore." ” Xiao Zhuo said: "Within three days, I will definitely guard here, although you can rest assured to heal, you don't have to think about it." ” Fei Yue smiled at Xiao Zhuo, put down the curtain, and immediately meditated.
In a flash, it was night, the night here is not better than the day, the sun is warm and velvet, it is still worry-free, the night is completely different, the temperature plummets, the cold wind strikes, Xiao Zhuo Neili is seriously injured, and he can no longer escape, but he is hungry and cold, unbearable, he raised a bonfire in the house, behind the curtain is the inner room where Fei Yue meditated, and her figure can be seen slightly in the firelight, but there are no doors and windows in this room, and starvation is just inevitable.
Xiao Zhuo went out the door, picked up some dry firewood, and burned the bonfire even more.
The moment the wind blew through the curtain, he glanced inward, Fei Yue was still sitting cross-legged on the ground, the face reflecting the fire was slightly warmer, but the blood at the corner of the mouth had not been completely wiped dry, the delicate face and Feiyun bun reminded her of someone, but the feeling was different, what my sister could bring him was comfort and a sense of belonging without thinking, and this woman was different, they were just simple trust under the meeting of Pingshui, but it seemed to have transcended simple trust, it was a kind of commitment that could completely entrust life and death to each other, Xiao Zhuo felt a surge of warmth in his heart, and unconsciously glanced through the curtain lifted by the wind, and felt a little comforted in his heart.
He went out in the morning to look for prey, meditated with Feiyun at noon, and lit the bonfire at night, and then glanced at the woman with a better complexion through the inadvertent swaying of the curtain.
"Do you know how boring it is to be alone?
My sister once taught me that when I'm bored, I feel relieved to think about the past, and I don't know what they're doing now!
Xiao Zhuo said to himself as he added to the bonfire.
His words grew up while the woman in the curtain was still indifferent.
"You're probably the prettiest woman I've ever seen But Sister Ci'er is also very beautiful, and her four maids-in-waiting My kung fu is what they teach If I'm not mistaken, they are called Windward, Snow, Cold Moon, and Falling Clouds I don't know what happened to my 3,000 cavalry They sank forever in the sand, but I dreamed of them last night They're alive."
On the third day, he started again when the bonfire was already burning and the stars were first appearing on the screen.
"I'm just now understanding why men want to be with women It's an amazing feeling You haven't eaten or drunk for three days and three nights, you can't go on like this To tell you the truth, even though you have now entered meditation and you can't hear anything, I still have to say that I actually like women like you The first time I saw you in that high hall, I had a premonition, an indescribable sense of déjà vu That day, when you were surrounded by the Blackbird Formation of Da Kunmo, I had an inexplicable impulse that I must fly up to save you, even I didn't expect that I could do it I like you more now than the arrogance you had in the main hall, because through this bonfire, I am the only one who can appreciate your beauty, and no one will rob me I'm not talking too much Hehehe But you are an immortal, I am a mortal, although I know a little Taoism, but I am only a mortal Maybe when your injuries are healed, you will be gone, without worry, and you will never have to think of me again But I won't, I'll always remember you, but I'm glad I have the opportunity to say that to you now In fact, when I was in Qingyun City, there were many people who proposed to my sister, and my sister saw that most of them were the children of officials, and they all had the intention of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, but they only said that I was still young, and most of them politely refused I was thinking if one day, I could take you to my sister and tell them that you were the one I wanted to marry I don't know if you'll say yes."
"Is it true?"
A woman's clear voice came from inside the curtain.
"Of course it's true, if I marry you, will you agree?"
Xiao Zhuo continued his words at the moment when he was completely unaware that the woman had woken up.
"I promise!"
The woman replied.
