428 Returning to Beijing
Yu Manman looked at Lu Baile as if he was angry, and then slowly spoke:
"I'm not going to tell anyone I've seen you, don't worry. ”
Hearing this, Lu Baile's eyes showed a trace of surprise, and he looked at Yu Manman and said in disbelief:
"Really?"
"Hmm. Yu Manman nodded.
"Haha, girl, I know that you are the kindest, and the old man really didn't see the wrong person. Lu Baile returned to the original hippie smile.
Seeing this, Yu Manman couldn't help but glance at Lu Baile, and then spoke unhurriedly:
"But you have to go back to the capital with me, and you have to teach me how to save your face. ”
"Won't going back to the capital with you let people know that you and I know each other? When Xuanyuan Haoling checks and knows that I already know your whereabouts, what can I do then?" Lu Baile suddenly became anxious.
"Since you were afraid, you shouldn't have lied to them at that time, but now you know that you are afraid? Yu Manman pretended to smile proudly.
Seeing this, Lu Baile's face suddenly fell, and he looked at Yu Manman and said in a complaining tone:
"Girl, you can't do this to me, you can call me uncle, it's not okay to talk to the elders like this. ”
"Come on, it's really cheap and good. Yu Manman sneered.
After hearing this, Lu Baile couldn't help but start arguing with Yu Manman again, but fortunately, Yu Manman had already expected his next move, so he hurriedly said before he spoke:
"Since you don't want them to know that you and I know, then I'll hide you in the Taishou Mansion, you play a charlatan, and then I met you on the way back to the capital, so I followed me back to the capital. ”
"You let me play Lang Zhong who walks the rivers and lakes? How can this work, I am a dignified miracle doctor, how can I play a Lang Zhong. When Lu Baile heard this, he shook his head and denied it.
"Then what identity do you want to go back to Beijing with me? I am afraid that we will be discovered, and I don't want to use Langzhong's identity, what do you want to do?" Yu Manman couldn't help but cold his face.
Seeing this, Lu Baile hurriedly pulled out a flattering smile and said to Yu Manman:
"Girl, you see, if that's it, I won't go to the capital, you give me your spirit fox and let me keep it for you for a few days. When you and Xuanyuan Haoling make it clear, if you decide to break the marriage contract, then I will return it to you, how about it?"
"What do you mean that if I decide to break the marriage contract, I will return the spirit fox to me?
"Also, of course, I'll borrow it for two days, you don't know that this little thing only listens to you, I said that it was to borrow its blood to heal you, and it promised to let me take blood, otherwise I would have been disfigured by its scratches. ”
"Come on, I don't know if you want Cocoa, you have to ask Coco if she agrees. Yu Manman turned his head and glanced at Coco.
When Coco heard this, he immediately pricked up his ears and showed a grinning expression towards Lu Baile.
Seeing this, Lu Baile inexplicably felt a chill in his back, and hurriedly shook his head:
"I don't want it anymore, I don't want it anymore, you don't let it bite me, its claws and teeth are too sharp. ”
"Okay, you can go back to the capital with me, and I'll let Coco send you two drops of blood when the time comes, wouldn't it be good?"
"Just two drops of blood?
"It's not me who picks it, it's just this little bit of cocoa, can you bear to ask for so much blood? What's more, it has consumed a lot of essence blood for me in the past few months, and I can't let it bleed anymore for the time being. Yu Manman stroked Coco's fur and said distressedly.
Hearing this, Lu Baile carefully looked at the spirit fox under Yu Manman's palm, if it weren't for the big loose tail dangling, this body was about the size of two palms.
In the past few months, a drop of its blood has been taken every day, although it does not look like much, but over time, this little thing has also suffered a lot.
Thinking of this, Lu Baile gritted his teeth, and then nodded:
"Okay, I'll go back to the capital with you, but you have to remember what you said, if Xuanyuan Hao Ling ......"
"I know, you don't have to be reminded. Yu Manman hurriedly interrupted Lu Baile's words, not wanting to hear any more news about Xuanyuan Haoling falling in love with another woman.
Seeing this, Lu Baile stopped talking, looked at Yu Manman's slightly tired look, and couldn't help but speak:
"Then you lie down and rest, you have just woken up, and you shouldn't be too tired, so I'm too excited to pull you for so long. Now you can sleep for a while, and I'll call you when supper is ready." ”
"Good. Yu Manman nodded, and then lay down obediently.
Lu Baile checked Yu Manman's pulse again, and then walked out with the medicine bowl with confidence.
Yu Manman heard the sound of the door closing, turned his head to look at Coco sleeping inside, raised his hand to hug Coco into his arms, stroked its thin body and said over and over again:
"Coco, thank you... Thank you ......."
As if she understood, Coco raised her head and kept licking her face.
Seeing this, Yu Manman couldn't help but sneer, and then hugged the thin Coco and fell asleep together.
In the following days, Yu Manman and Lu Baile stayed in the courtyard for another ten days, and their bodies were almost fully recovered, so they prepared to return to the capital.
Yu Manman's luggage is quite small, just a simple change of clothes, and nothing else.
And Lu Baile also traveled lightly, but he became more low-key and wore a hat on his head.
The two drove a dilapidated carriage, holding a snow-white beast in their arms, and slowly headed towards the capital.
Walking slowly on the road, another three days passed, and now it is July, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, Yu Manman and Lu Baile are fine, after all, they are used to it.
But Coco is different, it grows in the snow-capped mountains all year round, and it is very unaccustomed to today's hot weather, so before it arrives in the capital, Coco has already fallen ill.
At this time, outside the capital, less than a mile away from the city gate, a dilapidated carriage was walking on the road, and suddenly a woman's exclamation came from inside:
"Uncle Lu, look at it, but it's not good!!"
Hearing this, the people who were driving the carriage outside heard this, and hurriedly shouted to stop the car, and then lifted the curtain and walked in, and said anxiously to the people inside:
"What's going on? Didn't it just get better? I gave it water. ”
"I don't know, I don't think he's been eating much, so I want to feed him some pastries, but he only takes a bite and dies. There was a hint of crying in Yu Manman's voice.
When Lu Baile heard this, his face suddenly became a little solemn, and he felt a little uneasy when he looked at Coco rolling his eyes and exhaling a lot and taking in less air.
