Chapter 045: One Night Together! (Ask for the first order)
"Search!"
After receiving Zhao Zhu's order, one by one, the bloodthirsty Jin Guards in armor and swords rushed over. It seems that he has been waiting impatiently, and the momentum of the tide and electric switch is mixed with the sound of horses' hooves, which makes people feel a little frightened for no reason. And the plainclothes brocade guard, who was tightly guarding Dongfang Qingxuan's car, also touched the knife on his waist and put on a posture of preparing for war.
The situation is on the verge of eruption.
"Don't be rude to Your Highness!"
Before the Jinyi Guard's waist knife was unsheathed, Dongfang Qingxuan on the carriage spoke out to stop it.
Gently reprimanded his subordinates, his narrow and demonic eyes turned, and then he looked at Zhao Zhu's cold face with a smile.
"Your Royal Highness, Qingxuan is no longer talented, he is also the governor of the left army, a member of the imperial court, thanks to the saint to give the crown prince Taibao, in charge of the affairs of the brocade clothes and guards, and specialize in the cases of the saint, and because he often walks outside, the saint is afraid that Qingxuan is inconvenient to handle the case, so he specially gave him an embroidered spring knife, and specially instructed Qingxuan that all criminal affairs only need to be presented to the saint. Today, Qingxuan is really puzzled, His Royal Highness, which ancestral system does this rely on to search for Qingxuan's car? β
He spoke very slowly, slowly, gently, but loudly.
He said so, if Zhao Zhu wanted to rely on his royal dignity and insist on searching him in public, it would not only offend him Dongfang Qingxuan, but also have the intention of looking for the old emperor of Jingshi.
A trick of "general" army, the method of reading > novel ybdu is very high, and it is also very choking.
Who can afford such a crime?
People who can know Zhao Bottle...... But he pinched a cold sweat for him.
Zhao Zhu stood on the horse, and he didn't see any arrogant movements, but every move was all from the Heavenly Imperial Family. He calmly handed the horsewhip in his hand to Zheng Erbao, pulled the reins of the horse with one hand, pressed the sword on his waist with the other hand, and slowly took two steps forward.
The sword light flashed, and it pointed directly at Dongfang Qingxuan.
"My Dayan Dynasty has a strict order, and officials at all levels are not allowed to trespass. Although this king recognizes you as Dongfang Qingxuan, the king's sword does not know that you are the commander of the Jinyi guard. β
Isn't that unreasonable?
Dongfang Qingxuan's smile stiffened, as if he was choking on him and coughing.
"Your Highness, how Jinyiwei acts, Qing Xuan has his own discretion, if there is a mistake or omission in the errand, he should also go back to Beijing to ask the saint for his guilt. And Your Highness, you are on the march, and managing the heavy affairs in the army is the most important, so why bother to take care of Qingxuan's idle affairs here? β
"Oh?"
Zhao Zhu was dressed in a prince's python robe covered with a black cloak, and sat on the horse slowly.
"I haven't seen you for two years, and you've really grown."
After that, he turned his head suddenly, and his voice was fierce, like a cold wind blowing on his face.
"What are you waiting for? Search! β
"Yes, Your Highnessβ"
In the midst of the heavy cheers, the soldiers of the Jin Guard Army had no worries and pounced in the direction of the carriage.
You know, after the Jinyi Guard was changed from the Gongwei Division, the power in the court developed very rapidly, because of the support of the old emperor, in the past few years, Dongfang Qingxuan has been arrogant and domineering, fabricating crimes everywhere, repeatedly raising prisons, and officials at all levels in the court and even the three major battalions of the Beijing army have already had a dislike, although these soldiers have been fighting abroad all the year round, they have also heard of the deeds of these eagle dogs, and they have long hated it.
Ping Pong β
Neither group is an ordinary person.
The swords fought each other, and the fight was straightforward, and the shouts of killing and scolding the mother were endless.
At the same time, on the other side, except for the people who were crowded with more and more onlookers, the original order of Chongning County was not broken. The checkpoints have also been restored to normal inspections for traffic.
At this time, there was a funeral procession of about 20 people, four people carried the coffin pole, eight people blew and blow, and the relatives wore linen and filial piety one by one, and in the high or low sobbing, the dark yellow paper in the sky was scattered everywhere at the city gate.
"It's dark, what kind of funeral? Bad luck. A garrison roared roughly.
"Official, my mother is a well-fallen-bye, Mr. Yin and Yang said that the luck is not right, the evil spirit will not disperse, you must be in the ground, out of the evening funeral, from the selected feng shui is still far away, you see this ......" The middle-aged man at the head of the funeral procession, dressed in a filial piety cloth mixed with mud ideas, kept nodding and crying and explaining.
"Late funeral?"
The soldier who shouted to them was also a native of Chongning County, and he knew that there were indeed such folk customs and sayings in the local area. Everyone in the world respects the dead, and everyone is a native of the country, so he can't make it difficult to lose his family.
"Let's go, let's go, let's goβspeed it!"
After a routine inspection, the city gate was released. And the eyes of the soldiers defending the city also looked at the Jin Guards and Jinyi Guards who were fighting not far away from time to time, and they were completely attracted by this rare grand occasion in a hundred years.
"How can this be true? Jinyiwei also dares to provoke? Someone shouted while fighting.
"What the do you care? Let you be arrogant, and I will have to slay you today. Someone seemed more annoyed than he was.
The number of Jinyi guards is smaller, and the number of Jin Weijun is not large.
After about a quarter of an hour of fighting, the Golden Guards, who were obviously good at attacking cities and plundering the ground, had the upper hand. Seeing that the more than ten Jin Weijun who took the lead were getting closer and closer to Dongfang Qingxuan's black-painted carriage, the winner was decided.
"Stop!"
Dongfang Qingxuan suddenly raised his voice.
Immediately, he smiled and glanced at Zhao Zhu, who had been silent.
"Your Highness, everyone is their own people, and it is really unseemly to shout and kill here, but it makes the people laugh, and they will say that the court has raised a group of scum who kill each other? The first thing, forgive Qingxuan for being reckless, His Royal Highness just wants to search the car, it's not a big deal......"
Speaking of this, he raised his eyebrows slightly, "Like the wind, open the carriage and let His Highness's people check it." β
"Yes! Grand Governor. β
Just now, he was still there and insisted on refusing, but now he suddenly changed his tone, and the onlookers all said in their hearts that he couldn't beat Jin Weijun and had to give in, and his admiration for the prince of Jin was a little more. Then, the crowd fell silent, and the original sword and sword fighting stopped for a moment.
Everyone's eyes were on the black-lacquered carriage.
With a bang, the carriage door was opened, and the curtain made of black silk cloth was raised.
But except for Dongfang Qingxuan himself, there was no one in it.
Where will there be the shadow of the seventh day of the first summer?
"Your Highness, do you understand?" Dongfang Qingxuan leaned weakly against the wall of the carriage.
The black lacquered carriage is not large, and the floor is not thick, and there are no Tibetans at a glance.
It turns out that there is no fear?
Many people's faces have changed, only Zhao Zun is still cold as usual, not even the slightest bit of unexpected emotion, only staring at Dongfang Qingxuan's slightly tired complexion, and said lightly, "Dongfang Da's temperament is very bad, it seems that he is really sick, can you ask your husband for treatment?" β
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern."
Dongfang Qingxuan was a little surprised that at this time, he would still have the heart to gossip with him, but he still had a smile on his face, his expression was charming and enchanting, and he looked like he was not fascinated by the dead and unwilling to die. Especially when he looked at Zhao Zhu, the charm under his eyebrows and eyes, people who don't know, will definitely think that he is simply the most gentle and elegant lover in the world, telling his lover his heart.
"Your Highness, although Qing Xuan's behavior in the past was quite cautious, he still offended a group of colleagues, so that the misunderstanding intensified. But others don't understand me, Your Highness, you should understand me, right? Since he served the bowl of rice of Jinyiwei, if Qing Xuan didn't use some means, where would he be able to handle the case? What do you say? β
He smiled like a flower, but Zhao Zhu's face did not change.
"What the Lord of the East said is extremely true. But this king thinks that tolerance will eventually be beneficial, and it is easy to cause disasters at will. Whatever seed is sown, it will bear fruit, and it is better to be careful in what you say and do, so as not to be recompensed with evil. β
"Your Highness Xie advises." With a bow, Dongfang Qing asked softly, "Qing Xuan is sick, and it is inconvenient to chat with His Highness for a long time." Now that the carriage has also been checked, can I leave? β
Zhao Jun stared at him coldly and waved his hand lightly.
"Release."
The tense and murderous atmosphere was suddenly swept away.
Immediately afterwards, the sword was put into the sheath, and the atmosphere of saber rattling was completely gone. The horse's hooves "trampled" past, the wheels "creaked" and turned, and everyone present secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When the carriage passed by Zhao Zhu, Dongfang Qingxuan shook the curtain and hooked his lower lip casually.
"Your Highness, Qing Xuan also likes the game of finding people. If you need Jinyiwei to help, you don't have to be polite to me. β
Zhao Jun stared at her, showing a faint hint of playfulness, "Lord Dongfang, go slowly, be careful of slippery roads." β
The blackened carriage was far away, and many people heard the conversation between the two men, but few people might understand the meaning. It wasn't until Dongfang Qingxuan and his party had no shadow and Chen Jing, who had been guarding Zhao Zhu's side, that he made a sound.
"Master."
Zhao Jun looked in the direction of the city gate, "How?" β
Chen Jinggong said, "The two ghosts have already brought the brothers to touch it." β
The second ghost was one of the twelve guards around Zhao Zhu, and compared to Chen Jing's introverted and steady, that guy was more cunning and mellow. Generally do the kind of stealing chickens and dogs, no, the kind of things that the gentleman on the beam does, he does it.
Dongfang Qingxuan's trick at the city gate just now, wanting to divert attention through the weapon fight, how could he hide the scheming Zhao Bottle?
But as a prince who led the soldiers, in front of the custom of "the dead are greater than the sky", it was impossible for him to let the people open the coffin for an autopsy on the spot, and if there was no one inside, then he would have to bear the infamy of disrespecting the dead.
With just one look, the two ghosts followed.
If nothing else, just when Zhao Zhu took the lead in dragging Dongfang Qingxuan and cared about his "jade body well-being", the funeral procession that had already left the city would fall into the hands of the two ghosts.
"Don't be careless, Dongfang Qingxuan is cunning, and the search and control must continue."
"Yes!"
After saying a word, Chen Jing continued to act as a background cloth.
At this moment, a lean boy with a big beard and a shabby shirt came galloping from the city gate with a horseback. As soon as the man got off the horse, he clenched his fists nervously and knelt on one knee with a pale face.
"Master, no one was found."
"No?" Zhao Zhu's brows frowned slightly.
"Yes." Looking at the frost that had already cooled under His Royal Highness's calm face, the two ghosts' clenched fists shook slightly, and their tone was quite calm, "The two ghosts were ordered by the lord to bring more than a dozen brothers disguised as robbers, and they intercepted the funeral procession, but they didn't find Chu Qi. β
"In the coffin, not either?"
Zhao Zhu's increasingly cold and hard voice made the second ghost swallow his saliva.
"Master, those people are all local villagers in Chongning, and they said that they were going to send people to the ancestral cemetery in Jinsha Village, Wangcong County. I forced them to pry the coffin open, but it was indeed ...... There is only one old woman's body, I have carefully examined it, and it will never be Chu Qi. The second ghost thinks that Dongfang Qingxuan's person never does things according to common sense, and Jinyiwei's intelligence network is pervasive, maybe, maybe he has left other tricks......"
Zhao Jun waved his hand to stop him from continuing, "Chen Jing." β
"The subordinates are here."
"Go, give Dongfang Qingxuan to this king to die."
"Understood."
Chen Jing is the world's first-class martial arts master, and he is not keen on official status, but due to fate, he is used by Zhao Zhu. This man has the advantage of absolute loyalty, and the disadvantage is that he occasionally gives people a sense of sluggishness.
After two steps, he turned back.
"Master, today's affairs are all due to the unfavorable handling of subordinates, which made Dongfang Qingxuan take advantage of the loophole."
"It's none of your business." The corners of Zhao Zhu's lips swept out a plausible arc, and the expression on his face was windless and waveless, but the fingers rubbing the horsewhip seemed to be a little heavier, "I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves, sooner or later." β
Chen Jing didn't understand a little, but he didn't ask any more and strode away.
The other two ghosts, who felt that they were "not doing well", raised their heads slightly, and vigorously grabbed the big beard that was not very comfortable on their faces.
"Master, what should I do next?"
"Continue to strictly investigate all official road checkpoints, especially within a radius of ten miles, and carefully search for this king."
"Ten miles?" The second ghost asked anxiously.
Zhao Zhu said very slowly, his voice was a little cold, "She will definitely leave 'that' mark, check according to the markββ"
"Yes! The subordinates will do it. β
The second ghost didn't understand why his grandfather dared to be so sure, but he just responded, so he turned around and passed on his life.
Zhao Zhu's face was still plain and calm, only his eyebrows were full of doubts.
His men and horses set up cards and ambushes on the official roads along the way, and they didn't let go of any of the vehicles and horses related to Jinyiwei, so it can be said that no fly will miss a single one, and a big living person wants to slip under his nose, how is it possible.
His brow furrowed a little, and he reached into his arms.
The thing in his arms was found in an abandoned courtyard room - it was the special "eye mask" made by Chu Qi before, it was hidden behind a toilet, and there were traces of people living in the house. Track it all the way, and along the forks in the road, you will search for this kind of icon similar to "eye patch". Her drawings were less obvious, consistent with the drawings he had seen before.
Well, there's nothing wrong with the route.
People must still be in Chongning......
Unless......
His dark eyes narrowed, and he suddenly turned his face and shouted.
"Two ghosts, come back!"
The thin and monkey-like second ghost had just entered the city gate, and when he heard the sound, his back stirred, and he galloped back again.
"Master, what else do you command?"
Zhao Zhu stared at him and asked coldly, "When you opened the coffin, did you find anything abnormal?" β
Scratching his head, the second ghost hesitated, "Abnormal? Master, the subordinates didn't find out. β
Zhao Zhu's tone was slightly heavier, "Think about it carefully." β
After thinking about it for a while, the two ghosts' eyes were slippery and rolling, and they suddenly slapped their heads.
"There you go. Lord, I thought that although the coffin looked damp and old, it was made of hardwood wrapped in iron sheets, and judging from the clothes of the funeral family, it did not look like the person who made the coffin. But it is human nature for a mother to be filial, and there are also people who go bankrupt to treat their mother's funeral, so I, I ......"
"Stupid!"
Zhao Bottle glanced at him, patted the horse's head, and squinted, "Lead the way, chase!" β
"Master, you want to go too?"
The two ghosts haven't figured it out yet, but Zhao Zun and one horse have already jumped out of the distance.
"This king wants to go and see for himself."
"Oh......"
The two ghosts responded in a long voice, and followed with a horse. But he couldn't help but turn his head sideways, and looked at Zheng Erbao, who had been following him closely, with an inquiring gaze, trying to find out from his face the reason why his grandfather cared so much about a person.
But Zheng Erbao is also a horizontal eye.
only gave him a disdainful look of "you ask the miscellaneous family, and the miscellaneous family asks who to go".
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Winter weather, short days and long nights.
After a while, the dark clouds did not disperse, the dark pressure of the clouds was lowered, and the sky became darker and darker.
On the official road leading to Jincheng Mansion in Chongning County, Dongfang Qingxuan leaned leisurely in the cushioned black lacquered carriage, holding the "Fengyue Heart Sutra" given by Zhao Zhu in one hand, the corners of his lips were slightly bent, and he was watching carefully, looking very fascinated.
Suddenly, I don't know which highlight he saw, he paused and shouted softly.
"Like the wind, where is it?"
Outside, Rufeng slightly opened the corner of the carriage curtain, there was no probe, only said slowly, "Back to the Governor, there are ten miles ahead of Wangcong County." We will soon be able to join Ma Qianhu and them, as long as we pass through the Wangcong, we can be regarded as leaving the net of the Jin Prince. β
"Heaven and earth?"
Dongfang Qingxuan asked again, chuckled contemptuously, his eyes turned, and his eyes suddenly sharpened again, "You said that we started from Qinggang and walked so secretly all the way, why did King Jin still come so fast?" β
Rufeng was stunned, "My subordinates don't know." β
Bending the corner of his lower lip, Dongfang Qingxuan put down the "Fengyue Heart Sutra" in his hand and smiled enchantingly.
"This seat actually let a little girl play tricks."
Rufeng showed an expression of "I don't understand".
"Quite simply, the secret is in the mark."
Rufeng's complexion changed greatly, and he hesitated for a moment before he said: "Back to the Metropolitan Governor, every time Miss Seven makes excuses, she does leave a mark. Each time, the mark is the same as a turtle with its head pointing in the direction. But the marks have been erased by our people, how can King Jin check? β
"Turtle?" Dongfang Qingxuan looked straight over, and the corners of his lips smiled, "That's her scolding this seat." β
Rufeng lowered his head, "The Grand Duke, forgive your subordinates for being stupid, I really don't know-"
"If I'm not mistaken, the tortoise's mark is the bright line of her cloth, and the purpose is naturally deliberately for us to see. Other than that, she must have left some dark lines in the shadows...... Something that only King Jin can know. Fortunately, outside Chongning City, this seat moved the place for her, otherwise she would definitely be hit by the King of Jin. β
"Unlikely." Like the wind murmuring in a low voice.
Dongfang Qingxuan suddenly smiled, raised his head and asked him softly.
"If not, then it's the side of this seat...... Is there a fine work of King Jin? β
Rufeng's pupils shrank, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Governor, my subordinates must carefully search and find out the person who eats inside and outside." β
"I'm kidding, are you serious?" Dongfang Qingxuan's mood was unclear, "Get up!" β
As soon as the wind thanked him, a captain in brocade clothes in the distance rushed over, panting and shouting "report", and got off the horse, ignoring the water stains on the ground, and knelt down.
"Governor, it's not good."
"What's the panic?" Suddenly brushing the book on the car board, Dongfang Qingxuan raised his eyebrows, "Say." β
The man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "I just got the report, and the King of Jin personally led the people and caught up with them again." He seems to have discovered the mystery. The Grand Duke, our people, do not dare to clash with His Highness head-on, but how can we do it? β
"So fast?" Dongfang Qingxuan squinted.
Biting his lower lip, he looked at his face like the wind, and suddenly knelt on the ground with his fists clenched, "Dadudu, my subordinates have a plan." β
"Tell me about it."
"Last time at the post station, you took the opportunity to present the crown princess's Heqing Haiyan Tu and King Jin to show their intention to join hands, but not only did he not say anything, but after learning that King Ning was injured, he hurried to Jincheng Mansion...... Then, in the matter of establishing a prince, his attitude is obvious. If you can't use it for yourself, why not ......"
As the wind said this, he raised his head, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light.
"Why not?" Dongfang Qingxuan asked with a smile.
"Take the opportunity to get rid ofβ"
"Oh?" Dongfang Qingxuan's scrutinizing gaze narrowed slightly, and after a while, he continued to say slowly, "Rufeng, you are so bold, do you know what the crime of murdering the imperial heir is?" β
Rufeng's body trembled, but he said firmly, "Dadudu, what if it's just a natural disaster?" β
Dongfang Qingxuan smiled again, "Natural disaster? Where did the natural disaster come from? β
Just a few miles above Jinsha Village is the famous Maojiangyan Water Conservancy Project...... As long as there is a burst of the embankment and the flood discharge is encountered...... Then, the king of Jin will disappear without a trace. And King Ning is so happy, although he has some strategy, he is by no means an opponent such as us. As long as the King of Jin with heavy troops is removed, the eldest grandson of the emperor will no longer have any worries. The Grand Governor, Rufeng is willing to lead this matter, no matter whether it succeeds or fails, I will bear the consequences alone, and I will never embarrass the Grand Governor. β
Dongfang Qingxuan's tense face like a flower slowly slowed down, and his voice was as warm as a spring breeze.
"Like the wind, you, you really have the heart of this seat...... Get up and speak. β
"I hope that the governor will be fulfilled like the wind, and he will be loyal. After the deed is completed, Rufeng wishes to die Mingzhi. β
"What do you mean by not dying?" Dongfang Qingxuan smiled and leaned over to pull him into the carriage, and personally took a white silk scarf to wipe it for him, in a burst of intoxicating flowers, his voice was as soft as a feather brushing his heart.
"I know your faithfulness. It's just now...... He can't die, and that little girl can't die. β
Rufeng's eyelashes blinked extremely quickly, his head hung down, and his voice was a little muffled.
"The Grand Duke, with all due respect to his subordinates, I don't understand many things......"
"For example?"
"For example, why did the Governor of the Metropolitan know that the eldest grandson of the emperor is looking for Miss Seven, but he doesn't tell him the truth about this matter. And the Holy Side...... And Xia Gong in prison, what does it mean? β
Dongfang Qingxuan chuckled.
"This seat has its own measure, someone is coming, go to Jinsha Village to pick up Ma Qianhu."
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
At the same time, on the road to Jinsha Village, Wangcong County, the party that went out of the funeral was crying and sprinkling paper threads along the way, blowing mourning music, and a big flagpole was tied to the coffin.
"Life and death lie in the sky, the grass covers the cemetery, life is bitter, don't be sad when you leave......"
Those who sing elegiac songs are dutiful.
As soon as he sang, the cold wind seemed to howl even stronger.
Just at the bottom of the swaying coffin board, Xia Chuqi had already woken up from a coma. But her hands and feet were still tightly tied, and her mouth was tightly gagged, like a brown child, and she couldn't move at all.
The only one who can turn is the head.
She tilted her head and rubbed her rag-gagged mouth on the coffin board, grinding little by little, and I don't know how long it took for the gag strip of cloth to finally loosen. She slowly spit it out, taking a few breaths, her eyes fixed on the dark, narrow, barely shimmering space in front of her.
Although she couldn't see anything clearly at this moment, she could imagine what a sad picture it was for a woman lying in the coffin in the space under the corpse to be tied up with this bird's virtue.
Her mouth was free, but she didn't shout.
Motionless, she just listened attentively to the movement outside.
At this time, the sky was getting darker and darker, and the person carrying the coffin did not find any abnormality in the person in the coffin.
In fact, not all of the people who came out of this late funeral were fake, it was indeed because the old lady died in the family, and Qiao'er was pinched by Jinyiwei. These guys are all honest people in the village, under the threat and temptation of Jinyiwei, how dare they disobey?
Xia Chuqi closed his eyes.
Dongfang Qingxuan, your sister's.
This is the saddest time since she got out of the pig cage in Liunian Village. In the past, no matter how harsh Zhao slut treated her and teased her, at least she didn't have to worry about her own life. But the big pervert of the Oriental demon, who knows when he will suddenly be in a bad mood, so he painted her face, or cut off her hands and feet to be a man?
The lesser of two powers.
Compared with the Oriental Demon, Zhao Slut is not so bad.
If he can come and get her out, the rest of the story will be better slowly......
"Look ββ!"
She was thinking about it inside, and in the mournful music outside the coffin, there was suddenly a cry of extreme horror, and along with the shout, there was another.
Whew-whew-
Wow - Wow -
Boom - Bang -
A kind of flood roar that can only be heard in a disaster movie sounded.
She was shocked in her heart, could it be that it had rained heavily for two days and encountered a mudslide?
Listening carefully, she didn't know what was going on. But in the next moment, the coffin that had been moving around was suddenly put into the ground, and the screams of those people outside were almost terrifying.
The mourning stopped, and the elegy stopped. Then, a cry that was even more terrible than the previous one came in.
"It's a flash flood...... The flash flood is coming......"
"No, it's not a flash flood...... It seems that the Maojiangyan has released floodwater......"
"The flood is out...... Run......"
"Brother...... Mother, mother, she is still in the coffin......"
"Run...... It's too late......"
The lives of the living are naturally more important than the dead.
Xia Chuqi heard the panic outside, and there were all kinds of noisy sounds from far and near, and then, the relatives who were still crying for the death of the old lady just now almost didn't hesitate, so they all just ran for their lives, where can they manage the dead people in the coffin?
Now, those people can't even take care of their own mothers, how can they take care of her?
"Quick, get her out...... We can't go far with the coffin. β
A disguised brocade guard who accompanied him all the way suddenly yelled in the whistling sound of the flood.
"Ma Qianhu...... No, it's too late! Crucified...... Let's run......"
"No, Yang Er, come back!"
"Ma Qianhu, run......"
"You damn it, the Governor dares to ...... Wang San, hurry up! β
"Ma Qianhu, pry it......"
Their scolding and conversation were soon drowned out by the whistling of the flood. But Xia Chuqi could still feel it, and the coffin was pried into a "knock" sound.
But in an instant, under the dim sky, a larger flood of demons surged over, sweeping everywhere they went, and seeing the houses and trees in the distance being submerged, the sense of fear finally overcame the sense of responsibility. People are dying, and any task is empty talk. The remaining two brocade guards glanced at each other, and almost ran away in unison.
"What the fuck you guys...... Come back! β
Boom - Boom - Woo - Boom -
The sound of wind, water, impact...... The flood is as fierce as a beast, and its momentum is overwhelming.
At the beginning of the summer, Qi's eyes widened.
But her hands and feet are tied at this time, where is there any possibility of escape?
With careful discernment in her ears, she also heard the sound of the mountain torrent getting closer and closer, but she could no longer hear the shout of Ma Qianhu.
Her head slammed against the coffin, and she raised her voice and shouted.
"Hey! Kill a thousand knives of the brocade guard! You fucking pry open the coffin for Lao Tzu and then run away. β
No one answered her anymore.
Looking at the black coffin board, she suddenly smiled.
Damn, even if you're dead, you have to pull a dead corpse on your back, what kind of bullshit fate is this?
Such a bizarre way to die...... It's too sad!
Slowly, she closed her eyes.
Perhaps, when she woke up, she was still in the villa of the Zhanse family, looking back and forth with a small mirror.
Maybe, when she opens her eyes again, ha, it's all a dream.
"Master, you can't go over. The flash flood is coming......"
A scream that was even more eerie and shrill than the duck, almost completely deformed because of nervousness and fear, but it still allowed her to catch the familiarity and open her eyes suddenly.
Zheng Erbao? He called the master?
Zhao Bottle is here?
"Grandpa......"
"Your Highness...... Your Highness...... Fast...... Hold His Highness ......"
"Run. Don't come! β
A shout that came more urgently and heavily, accompanied by a terrifying roar like a flood beast, made Xia Chuqi, who had been in the dark coffin, his heart almost jump out of his throat.
Zhao slut he ...... In such a situation, dare to come to her rescue?
"Bang-"
Before she could think about it, an extremely heavy impact came out as if death was imminent, and she felt that the whole coffin had been pushed far away by the huge waves, and then it shook. And her head hit the coffin board, and her eyes were full of stars.
She knew that the coffin had been swept away by a flash flood......
In the next moment, the coffin was shaken and sank a little as if it had been swept into a stormy wave.
It was clear that someone was leaning over the coffin board.
Sure enough, then Zhao Zhu's slightly dull voice came.
"Chu Qi!"
His tongue slipped down, and his eyes were hot at the beginning of summer.
"I'm ...... Hey, I'm ...... in there."
She didn't know if he heard her voice, didn't hear a reaction, and slammed her head against the coffin board again. But in the next moment, another torrent slammed over, turning her and the coffin several times, and striking a long way before she was wrapped in a huge monstrous flood.
The impact made her dizzy.
Fortunately, she didn't forget that there were still people on the coffin.
Her head slammed the coffin board, and she shouted.
"Hey, you try to get me out first, it's starting to seep water...... I'm going to have to drown in a moment. β
There was no sound outside.
No, it should be said that there is no voice of Zhao Bottle. All she could hear was the roaring flood rolling in waves, rolling the coffin planks against the trees, crashing against the rocks, making a loud bang. Each blow seemed to hit her heart.
No matter what she imagined what had become of her outside, she panicked.
"Hey, Zhao Bottle...... How are you? β
She bumped her head, but he still didn't answer her.
Shocked.
She wondered, could it be that the slut was swept away by the flood?
This...... Do you want to be so cruel? Let her still owe a debt for her life before she dies? How embarrassing is it to reincarnate in the next life?
In principle, Xia Chuqi is a good person.
This kind of conjecture made her throat and eyes feel like a straw, and her heart was a little uncomfortable, and the voice she shouted out was even more poignant.
"Zhao Zhu? Hey, Zhao Zhu - you speak. Speak! β
"What's the ghost called? Shut up! β
His cold scolding voice suddenly came from outside, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.
"I'm afraid that if you die, no one will return my mirror. If you go to the king of Hades and go to me again, and say that I owe you a life, then I didn't go to the underworld, and I have to pay you money? β
Ignoring her words, Zhao Zhu spoke in a low voice for a long time.
"Bear with me a little longer."
This coffin is wooden, yes, but the outside is wrapped in a layer of iron sheets, and it is cut for a while, and because of customs, the coffin nails are also nailed to death, and it is not a normal situation at this time, just the impact of the flood will be life-threatening, not to mention that you have to find a way to pry open a coffin?
The first seven days of summer can be imagined.
In the "thump" sound of the sword slashing the coffin and the whistling sound of the flood, she pulled the corners of her mouth, ready to smile and comfort the guy's emotions, but in order to wear off the rags of the gagged before, it seemed that the skin on her mouth had been worn out, and she "hissed" in pain.
"Choking?" He asked.
I didn't expect this guy's ear power to be so good?
Probably some cracks had been cut in the top, and the water that poured in from time to time under the flood had indeed begun to spread to her ears. And she lay flat in it and couldn't sit up. If it continued, it wouldn't be long before it would be overhead, she guessed.
But what's the use of telling him?
Struggling, she stretched her neck as far up as she could, and replied with a smile.
"Don't worry, you cut slowly, I'm comfortable inside, and I'm accompanied by a female ghost."
"Bang-bang-bang-" This is the sound of a sharp sword colliding with a coffin board.
"Bang-bang-boom-boom-" is the roar of the flood as it collides with obstacles along the way.
The speed of the water was extremely fast, and the coffin drifted farther and farther, and more and more floodwaters poured in.
Soon it's going to be toplessβ
Xia Chuqi took a deep breath and held his mouth and nose, and the giraffe stretched its neck like a giraffe.
She doesn't want to eat a few mouthfuls of corpse water into it, so it won't be disgusting for a lifetime?
As soon as she thought of the corpse aunt above, her stomach churned a little, and she wanted to loudly urge Zhao Zhu above to hurry up. But people rushed over to save her little life, or is his safety more important, who made her a kind girl?
She waited silently.
"Still comfortable?"
Zhao Zhu's lukewarm voice suddenly came from above.
Feeling his hair swinging into the water, Xia Chuqi held his breath.
"It's okay, it's very comfortable!"
Originally, she was just there to boost the morale of the goods. How would she know, as soon as she heard this, the goods really stopped, and said slowly, "That master left first, and you are slowly comfortable inside." β
"Hey, hey, hey!"
With a tight heart, she banged her head against the coffin and roared viciously.
"If you dare to go, Lao Tzu will not let you go if he is a ghost in the next life. Who do you think I'm blaming for being like this? Don't they all blame you? Without you, would I have known the Eastern Demon Man? Aren't you all the ones who hurt me...... You ...... Ahem...... Bastard...... Draught my ......"
Smack-
After the sound of a heavy object falling into the water, the splint above her head "creaked".
Soon, a shadowy figure appeared in front of him.
In the dazzling white light reflected by the monstrous flood, the man was like a god descending, although he was soaked but his posture was graceful, although his robe was still under the impact of the flood, he was still full of grace. This guy who should only appear at the high gate of the royal court, enjoy the honor of everyone kneeling, and let the women of the world look up to his demeanor. At this time, he was lying on the top of the coffin board, looking down at her lukewarmly, his face was calm and calm, and he used a posture of talking about ancient and modern romances on a Qinhuai painting boat, facing the huge waves of the cannibalistic flood.
He's a prince, there's no need to do this?
At this moment, the seventh day of the summer month was shocking.
"The eyeballs are off."
He sneered and picked her up when she was dying and was still a nymphomaniac.
The woman's body had been pushed into the floodwater.
But looking at the situation on this coffin, Xia Chuqi suddenly reacted like a realization.
When I think about it, the admiration I had just now is gone.
It turned out that the coffin had already been split open, and seeing that she refused to beg for mercy, he deliberately disgusted her, let her eat a few mouthfuls of water and couldn't help but shout to save her. Ya is too lacking in morality. With a snort, she shook the water from her head vigorously and looked at the water-soaked burden in the coffin.
"Hey, get it, my stuff ......"
That's what she finally won from the Oriental Demon, the underwear made in the tailor shop, she hasn't worn it yet, what a pity if it's gone? The corners of Zhao Zhu's mouth twitched, picked up the burden, hung it on her arm, and then began to cut the rope on her body.
Xia Chuqi lay on the thick coffin board that he turned over as a carrier like a small one, took a few breaths of air, looked around at the surrounding environment that had changed the color of the mountains and rivers, and felt that this coffin was really magical, and the floating effect was really good.
"It's your fate, you ran into Lao Tzu." He packed up the rope and smoothed her clothes.
Choking on saliva, Xia Chuqi looked at him and frowned.
"This sentence seems a little familiar?" Isn't that exactly what she said?
"In the future, I don't owe you anything." His voice was still not hot.
Xia Chuqi knew what he was referring to, wasn't it the "life-saving grace" of the first time they met? So he remembers? But how could she be so kind to let him pay off his debts easily?
Pursing her lips, she snorted.
"It's as if you saved me in order to repay my favor?"
Glancing at him coldly, Zhao Zhu gave a "That's right" look, and didn't speak.
The corners of Xia Chuqi's mouth twitched fiercely.
For the sake of the safety of her own little life, she climbed the coffin board with one hand, grabbed Zhao Zhu's arm with the other, and smiled in the impact of the flood.
"Okay, I'm not as inhuman as you, anyway, it's a question of whether we can survive now, two clear, two clear, no one owes anyone, just right."
He ignored her.
Or rather, he didn't have time to deal with her.
With a pair of dark eyes squinting slightly, he calmly observed his surroundings.
The ** flood just now came very quickly, and it couldn't be a flash flood because of heavy rain. Rather, it should be the flood water released from the Maojiangyan gate upstream of Jinsha Village. Most likely, this disaster is not only them, but also the entire villages and towns downstream that will be flooded......
He was thinking.
Xia Chuqi was also thinking.
A coffin board carried two people upside down in the water, the water was raging and turbulent, the sky was getting darker and darker, and she couldn't see the surrounding environment clearly. Having seen the power of the flood for the first time, she finally knew that it was powerful, and this thunderous momentum was even more terrifying than the end of the world in the disaster movies she had seen before.
The most aggrieved thing is that in this situation, they can't find a place to dock at all.
She has been holding it all the time, and she knows how long she has been holding it, she snorted into the water and couldn't help but mumble.
"Hey, I'm in a hurry."
"Hold on." Zhao Jun didn't raise his eyelids.
"I can't hold it back, what should I do?" She glared.
"It's in the water." He frowned nonchalantly.
Xia Chuqi choked in his throat and opened his mouth, deliberately disgusting him, "I poop." β
His face stiffened, and his gaze finally drew from the dark sky to her face. Slowly, he threw out another sentence, "Then pull it in your pants......"
ββ¦β¦β
Ignoring him anymore, Xia Chuqi had a white face, soaking in the cold water, his body bones were cold, and he felt a little funny.
This person's life is also amazing.
Thought it was going to hang up. The person who saved her was actually him......
But now, in this long and long journey that is even farther away than "Robinson Crusoe", lying on the same coffin board with an ancient beautiful man who is too handsome to look like a mortal in the world, or lying on her stomach with such virtue, she feels that she still lacks a little poetic feeling.
In silence, she didn't know how long it was, and she didn't know how far they were from where they had been swept away by the flood, and when the water finally slowed down, she looked around and found that the environment of the two of them had almost become a sea under the massive impact of the flood.
It felt as if the whole world was submerged...... In all directions, there is no direction in sight.
It's over the calf.
She's dizzy and has to take a break from her life? And this time, even the coffin is ready?
floated for a while, and just when she wanted to yell at the heavenly lord to be angry, her eyes suddenly narrowed, and her weak hand pinched Zhao Zhu's arm, looking at a mountain in the distance that seemed to be floating in the "vast ocean".
"Hey, look, there!"
It should be a big mountain, because the terrain is high, although it is submerged all around, but it still exists majestically, like a lonely island, which has become the place she yearns for the most at the moment.
"Grasp the coffin board......" Zhao Zhu naturally saw it, but his voice was much calmer than her.
"I said, can I call it another way?" Xia Chuqi glanced at him.
"Huh?" He didn't seem to understand.
"Why don't you call it 'water-saving driftwood'? What coffin board? I don't want to die with you in a coffin...... It's scary to think about. β
Zhao Zun looked at her and rolled her eyes, and said calmly, "Then let go!" Hurry up and get off the coffin board. β
"Your coffin board?" Xia Chuqi choked, pouted and gave him an elbow, "It's obviously Lao Tzu's coffin board, right?" When did it become yours? β
The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and Zhao Zhu looked at her lazily, "Okay, it's your coffin board." Die in, right? β
was gagged all of a sudden, and Xia Chuqi found out that he had been encircled by him again.
Damn it!
She was scolding in her heart, but the man who was scolded by her suddenly wrapped around her waist, and changed to a cold and commanding tone, "If you don't want to die, hurry up, and speed over." β
"Paddle through?" Xia Chuqi glanced at him, and kept paddling with him in his hands, but he couldn't help but ridicule cheaply, "Don't you know martial arts?" β
He didn't give her one, and he hummed, "What?" β
"You can hold me and take to the air...... Suddenly, he flew to the other side? By the way, what is that light work called? Floating on the water, or a glimpse of the pinch...... Come on, hero, let me feel it...... Fly like a feeling. β
Zhao Zhu's gaze was quite cold, and he glanced at her like a neuropath.
"Row! Loud again, kick you down. β
Sighing, she pursed her lips helplessly and looked at him with disdain, "I thought you were so good?" It's just a pretense to dance around with a sword? β
Zhao Zhu was unmoved, and hummed without changing his face.
"Are you talking about people? That's the bird. β
"Oh." She suddenly realized, "That big bird in your house, I don't know if it's okay?" β
"......" suddenly let go, and Zhao Zhu was about to throw her down.
Hehe smiled, Xia Chuqi hurriedly hugged his arm when he saw this, grinned, and hissed in pain, only then did he explain with a smile, "Just kidding, don't be angry." Look at the environment we are in now. There is no village in front of you, there is no store in the back, the whole feeling from the plain to the sea, can you still live without telling a little joke? In fact, the martial arts I mentioned are all I saw in martial arts novels before, don't you really know? β
"Martial arts novels?" He raised his eyebrows, and there was a hint of what she didn't understand.
Squinting proudly, Xia Chuqi smiled so cutely.
"It's the script, do you know the script?"
Zhao Zhu hummed lightly, as if he was interested in listening.
finally had an audience, and Xia Chuqi's emotions that had been held in the coffin for a long time overflowed.
"Well, what about martial arts novels, it's almost like a script. It mainly tells some stories of fighting and killing. I'll tell you when I have the chance, I've read a lot of novels, and it's more interesting to keep than the ones you read. Even if it's the kind of little yellow book you like, I can tell you about it, or write it for you directly? As long as you are willing to pay me money, you can keep whatever flavor you want, what kind of flavor do you like? β
"......" he glanced at her, his brow furrowed.
He grinned and bumped his elbow again, Xia Chuqi moistened his mouth, "Hey, I said, what kind of eyes are you looking at?" We're both such good buddies, why are we so polite? It's good for everyone to share, right? If we have the life to go back alive, you will be kind to me from now on, and don't give me any more money. I am a person, my character is still very good, then I will sincerely assist you and help you rule the world? Or do you not like the country and like the beauty? Just the sister of the oriental demon, what kind of princess, is it your dream lover, if you want to sleep with her, I can also help, it's the price, the brother has to settle the account......"
"Shut up!"
Her slightly open mouth paused, "What? β
"Noisy people."
Coughing lightly, Xia Chuqi pursed his mouth.
"I'm nervous...... There are a lot of words. The main thing is...... If I don't talk and divert my attention, I will always want to pull ...... Baba ......"
ββ¦β¦β
"Hahaha......"
Glaring at her, Zhao Zhu didn't seem to bother to pay attention to her. He tied the rope cut from her into a dead knot, and tied it to the coffin board calmly, and then pulled one end of the rope, and tightened her waist with the other hand, and kicked a pair of noble black leather boots on the board, and with the help of that force, a radiant light leap went ashore, and then pulled the rope again, pulled the coffin board over, and pulled ashore.
Looking at all this he did, Xia Chuqi was a little admired.
This person's mind is really meticulous, it seems that the ancient feudal prince really can't be underestimated.
Cold enough to sneeze, she approached and teased him.
"What you did just now can be regarded as a light effort, right? It's just a little closer, huh? β
The prince of Jin pulled the coffin board, walked towards the hillside with an expressionless face, and ignored her.
Xia Chuqi followed closely behind, gesturing with both hands, "Ah, it's okay, you don't have to be discouraged, just practice more if you have nothing to do." In the future, I will definitely be able to fly like a bird. β
"Shut your mouth and give you ten taels." He paused, and abruptly turned his head.
Glancing at him, Xia Chuqi laughed secretly in his heart.
So this thing is annoying and noisy? This trick works, and can you still make money? At this thought, the usual countless resentments were gone, and she whistled, and followed him to the top of the mountain, wondering how to get more money.
Crooking the corners of her mouth, she thought about it and touched him with her elbow again.
"What?" He was getting impatient.
Xia Chuqi pointed to his closed mouth, shook his head again, and signaled to him that she would not speak. As soon as he opened his mouth, the ten taels flew away.
He snorted softly, "If you have something to say, say it." β
It can be seen that this thing has completely had enough of her.
But just kidding, I finally had the opportunity, how can I earn only ten taels of silver?
Xia Chuqi opened his mouth slightly and silently gestured a few words.
"One hundred taels of silver......
Ignoring her fangs and claws, Zhao Zun observed the surrounding environment, dropped the coffin board, and quickened his pace and continued to walk higher up the mountain.
Xia Chuqi shrugged his shoulders.
She knew that the flood below was getting bigger and bigger, and she didn't know how much more the flood would flow, so the two of them had to find a higher place to rest tonight.
Wait for the flood waters to recede, or wait for dawn to think of something else.
Trotting after him, she aimed at his back. The long black hair with a black jade crown was damp, and the black cloak was also soaked, but his steps were steady and powerful, not in a hurry, that majesty, that demeanor, in such an unlucky place, did not lose half of the dignity and nobility. Moreover, although his robe was wide and his cuffs were fluttering, he did not have that kind of fleshy feeling when soaked in water. But I don't know why, every time she sees him wet, she can't help but have a dry mouth, and feels that her pure mind is beginning to develop in the direction of undisciplined.
Cough!
She coughed.
He didn't even look at her.
Sighing, she coughed again and pointed to her mouth. I know very well in my heart that a person who has nothing to do and coughs will be more fatal than when she is noisy.
Finally, on her fifth dry cough, he spoke.
"Say, ten taels is not less."
Ya really understands. Xia Chuqi laughed, "That's what you're waiting for." β
He looked at her suspiciously.
With her waist crossed, her feet folded, and her head shaking, she smiled cheaply, "I want to poop." β
Zhao Jun didn't look at her much at half an eye, "Do you want your master to help you?" β
Spreading out her hand, she smiled even more cheaply, "No straw paper, borrow your towel for use?" β
Zhao Slut is a very particular goods, and he has the towel prepared for him by Yueyu at any time, just like him, the fragrance is faint, and it smells very good. Although he was reluctant, he finally couldn't stand her soft grinding and hard bubbles, so he handed it over. Xia Chuqi comfortably found a shelter from the wind and solved his personal problems, and then trotted all the way to keep up with him.
But thinking of making money, her mouth can't stop at all.
"Dongfang Qingxuan, that turtle bastard with a human face and a beast's heart, when I see him again, I will definitely pick his skin, pull his tendons, chop his heart, and cut his stomach to make a dough cake for your big bird to eat......"
She had to admit that Zhao Zhu's anti-noise ability is still very strong. No matter what she said, he didn't pay any more money to shut her up. Could it be that the previous ten taels were because she mentioned that the words of the crown princess touched him?
Incomprehensible!
She scolded Dongfang Qingxuan all the way, but he was always silent. Wait until the two of them find a place on the mountainside where they can temporarily stay. He stopped, looked at her, and spoke coldly.
"If you are wise, you will mess with him less."
"Am I going to mess with him? Odd! Apparently he was deliberately targeting me, right? β
He didn't answer, but walked into the concave col, which was so small that it could hardly be called a cave, swept around him, found a handful of hay in the corners, took out a fire sickle, and lit it, and then asked in his deep voice, seemingly casually and lazily.
"Why is he targeting you?"
Stung in his heart, Xia Chuqi looked away, and it was not easy to answer positively.
"Where would I know? I guess it's because I'm pretty...... Hey, what a thin life since ancient times. Right? Just like you are today, you are angry and red-faced......"
Zhao Zhu's back stiffened, he raised the torch made of hay in his hand, lowered his head slightly, looked at her motionlessly, and frowned, "Chu Qi, your face ......"
Almost subconsciously, Xia Chuqi covered his face, including his forehead, and his heart beat to his throat.
"What's wrong with my face?"
Zhao Jun squinted his eyes and snorted coldly, "The skin is too thick, and it has fallen to the ground." β
Depend on! Scared her to death.
She pulled her wet bangs a few times, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the wax on her forehead has not melted away.
Slut, always such a serious hurtful person.
This small concave looks very much like the hunter's place of hunting on the mountain, and there are some firewood for making fire, and a large pile of hay spread on a high stone platform. But except for the large weathered stone slab, the entire ground in the cave was soaked with rainwater flowing from outside, and there was no way to settle down.
Two people, sleeping on a slate?
Xia Chuqi peeked at him, thinking about who suffered more.
Zhao Zhu didn't speak.
It was evident that he was a master of survival in the wild, and he did not need her to move, so he quickly set up the firewood alone, lit a large fire with hay, and when the fire burned strong enough, he ignored what would happen to her, and untied his cloak comfortably, took off his robe, and roasted his clothes in a serious manner.
With his arms crossed, Xia Chuqi sat next to him and roasted the fire.
"The place is still very nice, like a small cave, breathable and airy. It's really good to cheat. β
She actually said it so smoothly, but the words came out of her mouth, and when she touched the taste again, she found that two people were alone in one place, and a girl's family said such a thing, which was too suggestive and easy to misunderstand.
Fortunately, Zhao Zhu didn't raise his eyelids. It doesn't seem to understand what "cheating" means at all?
That's nice! That's nice!
The corners of Xia Chuqi's mouth curled up into a smug smile, and he smiled a little closer.
"Hey, I'm hungry."
"Didn't eat?" He glanced over, coldly.
She sighed bitterly, her eyes were about to catch fire, "Dongfang Qingxuan is really a pervert, he doesn't give me food and drink, saying that I have eaten and drunk, and he will be congratulatory at every turn...... Hey, by the way, I said you all found the marks I left behind, right? β
"Hmm."
Zhao Jun pursed her lower lip, thought about it, turned over her robe again, took out the first mark she left from it, and threw it to her.
"Your blindfold."
ββ¦β¦ Cough! β
Xia Chuqi almost choked on saliva.
This time, without him saying any more, she kept her mouth shut.
Before leaving that day, she didn't know where Dongfang Qingxuan would take her, thinking that if Chen Jing came over, she could determine an approximate location. So, in addition to leaving a small underwear that is easier to find under the mattress to deliberately let Dongfang Qingxuan find out, he also dropped a "blindfold" behind the toilet.
Yuan didn't have much hope, where would he have thought that he could really be found out by Zhao Zhu?
Powerful reconnaissance ability!
She sighed, put the underwear into her baggage, looked at his handsome face that was getting colder and harder in the firelight, coughed lightly, and laughed paradoxically, "Actually, it's not called an eye patch, and it's not a weapon." I was kidding you that time......"
"Oh? So what is it? β
Zhao Zhu looked at him slowly, and asked very seriously, so that Xia Chuqi wanted to tease him, but he felt that it was too cruel and obscene.
"Hehehe, master, this situation and this scene, it is not appropriate to talk about this thing."
With a slight sigh, Zhao Zhu lazily flipped through his cloak and said lazily and hoarsely, "Ye is also teasing you." β
"...... "So I always knew about this thing?"
Xia Chuqi's eyes widened.
He glanced at her quietly, and said no more.
She stared at him, all the time.
He frowned, and simply turned his head away, not letting her look at his face again.
Blinked her eyes a few times, Xia Chuqi turned around and glared a few times, but he didn't care, and she was a little bored alone. She sat and thought for a while with her cheeks on her face, and she suddenly said, "Hey, don't you think?" How strange is this flood coming today? β
Zhao Zhu looked at her, his eyes were slightly surprised, and then he said calmly, "The upstream of Jinsha Village is the largest water conservancy project in Shudi, called Maojiangyan. β
Talking to him is more laborious for normal people's brains.
Fortunately, Xia Chuqi was smart enough, and he realized the meaning when he heard it. If she was not mistaken, the flood was caused by the Maojiang weir breaking the embankment or discharging the flood. But is it man-made or accidental?
After a moment's excitement, she said, "Could it be that Dongfang Qingxuan did it?" β
"I don't know." Zhao Zhu replied lightly.
"It must be him, that bastard can do anything bad." Thinking of the hardships he had suffered from Dongfang Qingxuan, Xia Chuqi wanted to kill him, of course, he wanted to push all the blame on him.
Blinking again, she tilted her head to look at him, "According to your "Da Yan Law", arson, homicide, and flood discharge...... How many years should I be sentenced to this? β
Zhao Zhu's action of roasting clothes finally stopped.
After being stunned for a moment, he grabbed the words in her words, "What nationality are you from?" β
"I ......" discovered his own language disease, Xia Chuqi covered his mouth with his little hands and muttered, "I'm Chinese." β
"China? Where is this country? β
In order to avoid being tortured by people as a humanoid monster, Xia Chuqi rolled his eyes and laughed, "Do you really believe it?" Go! I'm a person from Liunian Village, Qinggang County, Jincheng Prefecture, our Dayan Dynasty, haven't you said it all? β
He was silent for a moment, then turned his eyes away and asked no more.
Exhaled, Xia Chuqi asked weakly, "Hey, do you have anything to eat?" β
He said lightly: "None." β
Rubbing his hands, Xia Chuqi hugged his pitiful little body, "Big brother, uncle, hero, big master...... I'm cold and hungry, I'm starving, who's going to do it for you, isn't it? Do you have to think for the long term? β
"Wait." Glancing at her with dark eyes, Zhao Yu finally frowned and stood up, "Look at the fire." β
After saying that, he put on the big coat and strode out of the cave.
Sticking out his tongue at his handsome back, Xia Chuqi shouted with a smile, "Master, when you come in in a while, remember to shout first, I'm going to take off my clothes and bake ......"
Zhao Jun didn't look back, nor did he answer, but his steps were bigger.
Sigh......
I walked to the entrance of the cave and glanced at him, and saw that he was far away, and only returned to the fire on the seventh day of the summer month.
In fact, she is also a person with a strong ability to survive in the wild. It can be seen that he was able to escape from the pig cage in the first place. If these little things can stump her, she will really lose the face of the Red Thorn Special Combat Team in her previous life.
But she's a woman, why do she have to do it herself when there's a man?
Besides, how cool is it to let the ancient feudal prince serve him? What's more, the Zhao slut teased her several times, which can be regarded as a small loss for him.
Quickly took off her coat, set it up with a firewood, and roasted it on the fire, and when it was almost half dry, she took off her underwear again, put on her coat again, and began to bake her underwear, and by the way, she rummaged through the baggage and found a set of underwear to bake, thinking that she could wear them comfortably later, eating roasted mountain delicacies here, and sleeping with a beautiful man, and suddenly felt that nothing was a problem.
"You're my little apple, I can't love you too much......"
Optimistic people are so realistic, no matter how bad the environment is, they can live comfortably.
Humming a tune, she packed up her clothes and took off her boots, which had already been soaked on her feet, to bake. The boots were smoking, and there was a strange smell, and she rubbed her nose, and was disgusted with herself, when she heard a familiar voice outside.
"Are you alright?"
"Alright, come in."
Xia Chuqi smiled casually, and didn't care much about the bare feet with a calf, dangling unscrupulously, and using roast shoes as roast chicken. So, as soon as Zhao Zhu entered the cave, he saw a pair of white and tender little feet, dangling on the edge of the fire.
His eyes turned away, and his voice was a little colder, "Put your shoes on." β
"Are your shoes still wet? Why do you want to wear it? β
Putting down his boots, Xia Chuqi rolled up his pants and legs a few more times, and then ran over happily, "Come on, come on, let me see, what delicious food has our master got?" β
Handing her the two fish caught in the water in the rock crevices on the shore, Zhao Zhu's lips moved, wanting to endure it, but it seemed that he couldn't bear it, "What kind of body does the little girl do not wear shoes in front of men?" β
ββ¦β¦ Aren't you? β
Speechless for a while, Xia Chuqi laughed "poof".
She almost forgot that this was the Dayan Dynasty, a place where a married woman would be regarded as a place where she lost her virginity and needed to commit suicide if she showed her feet in front of other men, and what she was in front of was not a modern trendy man, but a feudal prince with an old-fashioned mind. Go, where will he know, in her time, don't talk about showing her feet, no one will say anything even if she shows her arms and legs.
"Old-fashioned."
She scolded in a low voice, in order not to let his sight go anywhere, and in order not to seep into the smell of Hong Kong feet in the grilled fish, although the boots were not dry at all, she still put them in very reluctantly, and then picked up the two fish strung with grass stems and looked at them.
"This ...... How do you get it? β
Zhao Jun looked at him with a strange look in his eyes, "Aren't you going to know 128 kinds of nutritious delicacies that this king has never seen or eaten?" β
Xia Chuqi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Master, your old memory is really good." After plucking her ears, she smiled and continued, "But I don't like to cut fish...... Besides, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, in this barren mountains and mountains, there are no ingredients, where does the food come from? Why don't you cut it first, and I'll bake it later? β
Zhao Zhu stared at her emotionally, and carried the fish out of the cave again.
Tsk, this one is so good today!
Go back and let her be the master, how cool should he be as a servant? Let him do whatever he wants, and be happy when he thinks about it.
This time it didn't take long for Zhao Zhu to wrap two cut and washed fish in leaves and throw them to her again. In her joyful praise, she spoke lightly.
"Two fish, worth ten taels. Cut the fish, ten taels. Wash the fish, ten taels. In this way, you still owe you twenty taels. Eat first, and then come to beat your back when you are full. β
ββ¦β¦ Yes? β
What a person!
Buddies in the wilderness, and you still have to give money?
took the fish hatefully, Xia Chuqi didn't expect him to grill the fish for her this time, and she couldn't afford to pay the price. Imagine a barbecue stall in front of her, eating Sichuan-style grilled fish, a little green onion and ginger slices, a little peppercorn powder, and a little chili noodles......
Grunt......
Very discouraged, she swallowed.
"What does Dongfang Qingxuan want to know from your mouth?" Unexpectedly, Zhao Jun would suddenly ask.
Xia Chuqi also wanted to know this question.
But she knew that Dongfang Qingxuan had seen through the identity of the original Xia Cao, and it was very likely that it was still a disgraceful identity, so she was kidnapped, and how could she dare to confide half a word in front of Zhao Zhu?
She smelled the fish and swallowed her saliva, "Then who knows about him?" But if you look at his kind of person, although he has a good skin, you can see at a glance that it is the kind of neurosis that is inferior. Shameless and insidious, he probably thinks that I am not obedient to him, and he thinks that I am not very pleasing to the eye, so he thinks about killing me. β
Zhao Jun glanced at her, his gaze deepened, but he did not refute.
Xia Chuqi knew that he would not believe such a statement.
But since he didn't ask again, she wouldn't take the initiative to mention it.
Slowly roasting the fish, thinking about the long night ahead, and then looking at the more and more deep and good-looking faces of the Zhao slut under the firelight, she felt more and more that this night was ...... Well, it seems pretty good.
Originally, when her conscience found out, she thought about it, and when she finished grilling the fish and ate it, she went out to avoid it, and asked him to pull off the wet clothes on his body and dry them before putting them on.
But before she could finish grilling the fish, it began to rain outside. In less than a moment, the rain was pouring down, and the torrential rain was pouring down, and there was nowhere to go except for this cave to shelter from the rain.
Feeling guilty, she handed him a grilled fish.
"No, will you eat?"
"No, you don't."
"Watch out, I don't charge for it."
Leaning on the stone wall, Zhao Bottle glanced at her, "I'm not hungry." β
"Okay, it's best if you're not hungry." Laughing out a few small white fangs, Xia Chuqi took a bite of the really weak fish meat. Probably so hungry that she found it delicious, more tender than all the fish she had ever eaten.
"The only downside is that there's less salt."
She talked to herself alone, and he ignored it as usual.
When she gnawed both fish into her stomach in one go, she felt that she was actually only half-full, so she couldn't help but sigh heartily, cleaned up the remaining bones, and then moved over and gently pinched his shoulders for him, and kindly suggested.
"Why don't you take off your clothes and bake them? You're going to get sick like that. β
Zhao Zhu was still motionless, and only said expressionlessly, "Master is not at ease with you." β
Damn, even if she's a little lustful, she's still a gentleman in lust, right?
Who cares if he lives or dies!
Xia Chuqi secretly scolded him in his heart, and then rolled his eyes, and set his eyes on the mountain rock that had been dripping on the opposite side, and wilted.
"We're going to spend the night here tonight?"
He snorted, very leisurely.
"Hey, it's so boring for such a long night......"
ββ¦β¦β
Knock on his shoulder, and she suddenly turned sideways, her eyes shining at him.
"Why don't we play a fun game, or I'll tell you a story?"
He glanced at her and simply closed his eyes.
Obviously, he didn't want to hear her any more noise.
Crooked the corners of his mouth, Xia Chuqi's strength increased a little, and he felt more and more that in such a wilderness cave where there was no Internet, no TV, and nothing, it was really a tragic thing to be able to watch and eat the best beautiful man at night, and to have to beat his back and pinch his shoulders for him.
Her head was spinning, and she had a good idea again.
"Why don't I tell you about my love history."
"Love history?"
On the little face reflecting the bonfire, there was a little cunning, Xia Chuqi thought about it, and said, "To be precise, it's not called love history, because I haven't had a love affair with others...... It's a blind date...... You know what a blind date is, right? β
He didn't even lift his eyes.
"That's it, it's just ......" I don't know how to explain, she finally came up with an alternative statement, "It's just that, for example, the parents of the two families found a matchmaker to kiss, and then the man and woman meet, just meet to see if they agree with each other......"
"When we meet, we're going to be in a hole." He didn't open his eyes, but calmly reminded her of a fact.
"Aren't I a metaphor for you?"
He was silent anymore. Xia Chuqi knew that he couldn't see it, so he first made a head-cutting action on his head, and then continued to rub his shoulders for him, and said slowly, "Anyway, it's me, I've been on a blind date 99+1 times...... None of them worked out. β
Probably this number was too staggering to catch his attention.
He opened his eyes suddenly, and glanced back, his gaze a little cold.
"No more pinching, right?"
Hehe, Yile, Xia Chuqi didn't care if he answered or not, a very female man sat over, lay beside him all of a sudden, looked at the black and oppressive hole, and recalled the bright city in her memory. The voice was a little grumbling unconsciously.
"Hey!"
She hadn't thought he would ask.
Unexpectedly, he said coldly, "Why didn't it succeed?" β
The cold wind blew through the hole, making her cheeks a little cold.
In fact, she couldn't remember what kind of virtue the blind dates in front of her had become. What I remember the most is that I sang loudly with my comrades-in-arms on KTV, laughed and sweated wildly on the training ground, and carefully participated in the first military exercise...... Slowly reminiscing, she felt that those memories seemed to have been isolated for thousands of years.
"The first person I looked at, he thought I was too beautiful to look at, so he ran away in a gray way......" After a long time, she came up with a sentence.
"The second person, when he saw me, was so ashamed that he plucked his eyes, and since then he has been blind and refuses to see anyone again......"
"The third person, he's a gay ...... Well, it's like Dongfang Qingxuan. At this point, she nodded affirmatively.
"The fourth person, because I didn't look down on him when I was on a blind date, caused him to be discouraged, so he simply went to Shaolin Temple to become a monk, saying that he was willing to accompany the ancient Buddha of the green light for a long time, and recited Amitabha Buddha for me, but the infatuation of his life, leaving behind the three worlds of red dust......"
"The fifth person, when he saw my face, couldn't stand his own appearance anymore. He sold his house and went to South Korea...... Well, that's that and that...... Goguryeo, he went for plastic surgery. Again and again, again and again, when he finally returned home satisfied, because his father and mother did not recognize him, poor man, he was beaten to death as a thief. β
She said very slowly and brazenly, but Zhao Zhu was indifferent.
It wasn't until her mouth was so dry that she couldn't help but ask.
"The only difference? Is it the hundredth? β
Heh, so he's listening? 99+1 is a kind of speech, it is easy for him to understand the difference. Xia Chuqi grinned and threw a strange wink at him before selling Guanzi.
"Ahem, the last one is indeed the best beautiful man. His ability to kill the opposite sex is basically on par with mine. Of course, I'm a little bit better. However, I don't know what's going on, when we went on a blind date, we drank too much wine, chatted and got out of a bunch......"
Seeing that his cold eyes narrowed, and she obviously understood, she laughed and pounded the ground with her hands.
"We talked for one night, and when we woke up the next day, we became iron buddies, well, just like we are now."
Zhao Jun is obviously not interested in what she thinks is an "iron buddy".
However, Xia Chuqi found out that people really have the noble style of a royal child, even if they are not happy in their hearts, their faces are also very serious, they don't care about her joys, sorrows or hippie smiles, they only need to quietly exude his ecstatic male breath, so that she can finally suppress the little spring heart in her heart.
Embarrassed to be obscene with her life-saving benefactor, she continued to tell the story.
"Actually, I didn't care. Otherwise, the beauty can also be relieved. β
"It's because people don't care, right?" Zhao Zhu's faint tone was extremely mean.
Xia Chu choked and widened his eyes.
"Sleep! I won't tell you about it. You're a boring person, and you don't have a sense of humor. β
"So, for the best."
Zhao Zhu replied lukewarmly, then closed his eyes, leaned against the stone wall, and did not move again. When Xia Chuqi tossed and turned several times, and then opened his eyes to look at him secretly, he found that there was only a long breath left between his nose.
Damn, shameful, unkind!
Staring at the fire with wide eyes, she couldn't sleep with a bitter face.
Thinking about it, seeing that Zhao Zhu was already asleep, she simply took out the things in the bag that were not good for him to see, and sat quietly by the fire alone, roasting slowly, and at the same time looking around in this dripping cave.
What did she seem to see? Something seemed to be wriggling in the cracks in the rock opposite......
One by one, one by one, one by one, densely packed, all over the entire layer of rock crevices, flashing with a terrifying cold light.
His eyes widened suddenly, and a chill instantly hit his back.
"Mom, snake ββ!"
She screamed, turned around and flew to Zhao Zhu's body, using her octopus-like hands and feet together, entangled him deadly.
------Off topic------
Thanks to the girls who subscribed, I talked too much yesterday, so I won't say much today, just a word.
Monthly pass, come in the bowl! Roar ......!
Seeing that everyone enthusiastically threw the monthly pass into the bowl, Erjin was moved in his heart......
