The lights of the 7th house are on
The last expression on the face of a person who is overly sad must be an exaggerated laugh, and if you are sad and do not laugh exaggerated at the end, that result can only show that you are not really sad enough.
When Shen Luoluo was conscious, her eyes were dark, so much so that at first she was still wondering if her consciousness was the consciousness of a human being alive, because she couldn't open her eyes no matter how she opened them.
When a person's eyes can't be opened, what they usually do is move their hands and feet, and she moves her own hands.
Fortunately, her hands were still moving consciously, but her moving hands touched something very soft, and the touch on her hands also told her that what she touched was warm.
What would she touch?
When Murong Shang was conscious, the first thing he felt was a pair of soft and warm hands, and it can also be said that his consciousness was awakened by these warm hands. Warm hands caressed his face, and the place where he passed was warm but smelled of stench. Whose hand will this be? How can it smell like this?
Of course, this is Shen Luoluo's hand, and the burst of stench comes from her clothes, which is the real smell left by Shen Luoluo for fear that she will be bullied by the enemy after she is captured, and deliberately splashes something fishy on her body.
Both of them were dark in front of their eyes. One of the two people was lying on his stomach and the other was lying on his stomach, to be precise, Shen Luoluo was lying on Murong Shang's body at the moment. The reason why both of them were dark in front of them was not that both of them were dead, but that the two of them were now buried alive, lying in a gorgeous carriage and buried alive. The violent sandstorm swept through the wild sand and covered everything they passed, and if it weren't for the carriage with a space mezzanine, I'm afraid the two of them really wouldn't have any consciousness now.
The reason why Shen Luoluo's eyes couldn't be opened was because the blood from the thick air drying stuck to his eyelids. The blood is not hers, the blood is Murong Shang's. A sharp piece of sawdust pierced Murong Shang's left arm from behind Murong Shang's badly damaged carriage, and Shen Luoluo's head rested on Murong Shang's left arm. It can be said that if it were not blocked by Murong Shang's left arm, this sharp sawdust might have pierced into Shen Luoluo's head, and then Shen Luoluo would really not have any consciousness now.
What have the two of them just experienced?
Murong Shang's horses couldn't outrun the sandstorm, and although they managed to get rid of the wolves' pursuit, the violent sandstorm was more like a huge mouth that swallowed them alive. The two men and the horse instantly turned into kites for takeoff, staggering and floating in the air. The horses quickly detached themselves from their side and disappeared without a trace as if they had fallen into a whirlpool.
Shen Luoluo didn't see Murong Shang, she just felt a pair of big hands hugging her from behind her and pressing her into a warm embrace. Murong Shang's hand holding her position was actually a little awkward, but now that the two of them were already hovering on the edge of life and death, how could they care about this?
You can't see anything in a sandstorm, because even if you don't open your eyes, you know that all but sand is around you is broken rock. Murong Shang still managed to open his eyes, because he felt that his body touched something, and he opened his slender eyes to see a carriage without horses.
A person floating in a sandstorm is like a drowning person in water, and everything is seen as a life-saving straw. The carriage is not a straw in the water, it is more like a wooden boat floating on the water. Grabbing it in the sandstorm may really save his life, but Murong Shang's hands are now holding Shen Luoluo, and he can't spare his hands to grasp it at all.
It was very easy for Murong Shang to let go of his hands and grab the carriage by himself, but after a few efforts with his hands and mind, he still chose not to let go of Shen Luoluo, he didn't know why he was so affectionate to this person he had just met, just like a lover who had been in love for many years. What the hell is wrong with him? Is it because of the so-called kindness in his heart that makes him so indecisive?
Those who have achieved great things must not be so indecisive, how could he, as a prince who has led troops to fight many times, become so hesitant at this time? This is not his character, let alone the same person he used to be, maybe just today after he saw her gaze, his whole spiritual world has been completely changed.
Although Murong Shang's hands couldn't be released, he still had feet. The violent sandstorm may have wanted to pity the two of them once, and actually swept some broken carriage beside them, Murong Shang seized this opportunity to hook the stake of the carriage with his foot, and then squeezed into the carriage through the somewhat broken window with his body, and the sharp sawdust was inserted into his left arm from behind him at this time.
The situation after the two people squeezed into the carriage was not too optimistic, the two people were like the ingredients in the oil pot in the carriage turning back and forth with the sandstorm, and the sand and stones were mixed in from the broken part of the carriage like condiments, and mixed with the bodies of the two people in the carriage.
Together with the sand and stones, Murong Shang's blood was also mixed up, his blood blurred Shen Luoluo's eyes, and gradually blurred the intuition of the two people.
This is what the two of them experienced last night, and it can also be said to be the experience of life and death. Choosing death in the face of great danger may be a very simple thing, but it takes extraordinary courage to choose to live strongly.
Shen Luoluo's appearance at the moment is very bad, it can be said that it is extremely bad, if there is a light for Murong Shang to see now, I am afraid that he will also be frightened to instinctively run out several meters away.
The dried blood hung on her face like an ugly birthmark, and the dirty maid's clothes exuded a fishy smell. If such a woman and the man can still hold on to it after seeing it, unless the man is not only blind but also has a broken nose.
Murong Shang's eyes were not blind, and his nose was also very sensitive, although there was no light, but the strong stench tightly stimulated his nerves and kept his chaotic mind clear.
"Are we still alive?"
"Of course we're still alive, but if we're dead, how can we reach out and touch my face?"
"Is that your face? I thought it was a hot pancake? Where are we trapped? β
"You may be too hungry! We are trapped in your princess's carriage, and it seems to be buried under the sand now. β
"Our princess's carriage? So do you want to eat beef jerky? Shen Luoluo slowly sat up from Murong Shang's body, she looked like a sleepy kitten at this time, full of reluctance to leave her beloved nest.
Shen Luoluo slowly groped in the carriage, and after a few clicks, she really found a sheepskin bag, but this sheepskin bag was not filled with beef jerky but sour goat's milk.
"Drink this! Although it doesn't taste as good as the wine you men are used to, it will at least help you regain some strength. β
"Have you ever been drunk? How do you know that the taste of wine must be delicious. β
"I have never drunk alcohol, but I have seen men who are intoxicated after drinking, so I assert that the wine must have tasted delicious." Is Shen Luoluo's head naΓ―ve?
That's because the people you see are not drunk, and some people drink when they are not drunk, and everyone is drunk, and the people who drink are actually adding pain to their own hearts. It can be said that people who drink alcohol are redeeming themselves. Murong Shang struggled to straighten up. The sharp sawdust was still stuck in his left arm, and the sharp pain made him almost faint again, but fortunately no blood came out of the wound.
"Found it, found it." Shen Luoluo's words full of joy suddenly came from the darkness, and although these sudden words were joyful, they startled Murong Shang. What did she find?
"I remember I had beef jerky in the carriage."
"Do you remember? Are you familiar with the furnishings in your princess's carriage? Murong Shang suddenly said something that sounded careless, but this sentence made Shen Luoluo's body tremble in shock.
There is nothing wrong with it, there can only be one reason for such familiarity with the furnishings in the carriage of the princess, and only the princess herself can be so familiar with it.
"That's because our princess is very delicate, and our maids have always arranged their daily life, so I am so familiar with the furnishings in her carriage, and I put these things into the carriage to give you this beef muffin cake to eat." Shen Luoluo's words were calm and reasonable, and in the dark, she didn't know where she turned out a few more pieces of beef muffin cake and sent them to Murong Shang like a topic.
Murong Shang lightly let go of the doubts in his heart, although there are so many doubts in this girl's mind, but now in such a situation, it seems that everything should be forgotten meaninglessly.
"My horse seems to be here, and it seems to be alive." In the dark, Murong Shang suddenly spoke, his words were so sudden that Shen Luoluo was shocked and almost squirted out of the cow muffin cake that he had bitten in his mouth.
"Your horse? Was it the big white horse we were riding? How could it still be alive? Even if it is alive, it will not be able to find us, do you think it is the hound that the Orion follows when he hunts? Its nose ......" Shen Luoluo's words stopped abruptly at this point, as she heard a rustling of digging on the side of the carriage.
Murong Shang's big white horse not only lives well, but also really found them, everything has spirituality, and after getting along with each other for a long time all day and night, sometimes it is inevitable that it will be a little inductive.
Maybe the carriage was not covered with sand deeply, maybe the two men were lucky enough, the ground where the carriage was buried was higher, and after the big white horse dug a few times with his front hooves, the quicksand on the side of the carriage collapsed, leaking out of the side of the carriage.
The sudden light did not brighten the eyes of the two people, but on the contrary, it was almost dizzying. When the breath between the noses of the big white horse spilled into the carriage through the broken window, the eyes of the two men finally returned to normal.
"You seem to be injured, I'll see if you don't move." Shen Luoluo's eyes on her face that were a little terrifying looked at Murong Shang, and she quickly stretched out her right hand and put it on Murong Shang's chest, the meaning is simple and clear, you don't move.
Murong Shang's body didn't move, but his mouth opened in surprise, because Shen Luoluo's appearance at the moment was enough for him to find ten thousand reasons to persuade himself not to move.
"Your right arm was stabbed by sawdust, but luckily the blood stopped on its own at the moment, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to do anything."
"Do you know some medicine?" Murong Shang asked curiously.
"I know a little bit, and there is medicine in the carriage of this carriage that is used to heal the wounds." Shen Luoluo said and pulled out a mahogany brocade box from the side of the carriage.
"Why did you save me? You know, we're enemies. Murong Shang said that he wanted to stand upright, but he was pressed down by Shen Luoluo's right hand.
"Maybe it's because you just saved me! I didn't actually grow up in the grassland, I was from the Central Plains, and I was captured to the grassland to be the princess's slave. I just told you my name, and my name is an authentic Central Plains name. Shen Luoluo casually opened the mahogany brocade box when she was lying, and as she spoke, she took out a small porcelain bottle with a wooden cork from inside. Maybe even she believed it.
"It may hurt a little in a moment, although I don't have much experience, but I have taken a bow and arrow from a wounded horse, and I think it should be similar to taking sawdust from you." Shen Luoluo said this to mean that she had never healed anyone, and Murong Shang was the first person she treated.
"Wait a minute, if your face is injured or a birthmark. How could it be such a scary appearance. At this time, nervous people will always find all kinds of reasons to delay the situation they are facing, and Murong Shang also has this idea, but the idea of his words just accelerated the speed and strength of Shen Luoluo's action.
The most sensitive thing for a woman is actually her own appearance, no matter whether she looks beautiful or not, it is taboo to be said to be ugly by others, even if she looks really ugly or really beautiful.
"You didn't cry out loud about the pain, it means that my medical skills are excellent, if your mouth is talking a little, I think my medical skills will be on the next level." Shen Luoluo's hand was very heavy quickly, but fortunately, the medicine in the porcelain bottle was particularly precious and effective, and Murong Shang only left a small amount of blood before it instantly coagulated.
"You shouldn't seem to be a prince, because a real prince won't be as stupid as you. Because staying behind to cover the palace for the army usually ends in a dead end, and the soldiers of the army who stay with you seem to have betrayed you, and it can be seen that they want to kill you. Shen Luoluo quickly helped Murong Shang bandage the wound, and when she finished bandaging, she said casually. This seemingly unintentional sentence made Murong Shang's face instantly freeze.
Murong Shang gently touched the wound that Shen Luoluo had just bandaged for himself with his left hand, and then looked at Shen Luoluo quietly with almost dull eyes.
"You don't seem to be the princess's personal maid, how can the princess's noble status keep a sloppy maid like you by your side? And your mind seems to be able to analyze a lot of things that you don't know. It's a miracle that someone like you is still alive, because no one wants to keep someone who knows a lot of things by their side, so I don't think your identity will be as simple as the princess's maid. β
When a person is exposed by others, what he wants to do most is to expose other people's old bottoms in reverse.
This sudden words really made Shen Luoluo stunned, this person can think of these things and it seems that he must not be an idiot, but he can be stupid to stay as the queen of the army is enough to prove that he is an idiot, can he stay as the queen of the army completely because of the kindness in his heart?
The neighing of the horses interrupted the very awkward situation of the two men at this time, because a wolf was coming.
"A wolf is coming, and it seems that it is not the good luck of the two of us that your horse has dug us out, on the contrary, it seems that bad luck is coming." What Shen Luoluo said is not unreasonable, it is at least safer to be buried under the sand and gravel than now.
Murong Shang groped beside him with his left hand in a panic, he was groping for his sword, although he knew very well that such a groping was futile, his sword had long been lost in the wind and sand, but he was still used to groping around his side.
It was true that a wolf came, but it was only a wolf, and only a wolf wounded in a sandstorm. Perhaps a carnivore will naively think that its meal is coming, but it will not want to see its own death. Murong Shang's big white horse took its life with a heavy back kick, and it lay on the sand and gravel before it could even let out its last roar, and the wolf did not send out the distress signal that their mouth said.
"It seems that our luck is really good, and your big white horse is also lucky, and it is still very powerful." Shen Luoluo suddenly said such an unbelievable sentence.
"What good luck can my big white horse have?"
"Actually, I was thinking about our dinner and dry food out of the desert just now, and now that we have wolf meat to eat, then your big white horse can be regarded as having escaped this fate."
"Do you mean you wanted to eat my big white horse just now?"
"If it weren't for this wolf, that's all I could have done for you and my life." Shen Luoluo couldn't help but laugh as he spoke. To be honest, her smile was ugly, and her face covered in cracked blood could only be described as terrifying.
"We don't have fire, and even if we do, we don't have sticks to keep it burning." Murong Shang tried to straighten up as he spoke, he wanted to poke his head out to see the situation outside the carriage.
"Those soldiers of yours call you the Great Prince, I really feel sorry for them, if they knew that you were so stupid, would they continue to follow you? Can't this carriage be used to make a fire? This carriage is already in tatters, and we can't take it with us, so it's better to dismantle it now and make a fire and roast whole wolf meat to eat. β
"And do we have fire?" Murong Shang said in a light tone. His gaze had already scanned the outside. In addition to his big white horse, there was only the dead snow wolf lying on the sand and rocks.
"Of course, there is, but we have to bear with it now, because you have to hide in this carriage during the day, and the intensity of the light at noon may sometimes be greater than the threat of a pack of wolves." Shen Luoluo said as he groped in the carriage.
Although this dilapidated carriage is really a good place, Shen Luo fell in it for a while to find a bunch of strange good things, of course, including flint stones for fire.
"I'm afraid this is your princess's palace lamp! This thing knows that it comes from the Central Plains as soon as you look at the style, and you can think that it can be regarded as a precious and superb product in the Central Plains by looking at the exquisiteness of this production. Murong Shang's left hand picked up a beautifully made palace lamp from a corner of the carriage. There are four tiny bells hanging around the palace lamp, and the sound is comparable to the call of a lark in the Central Plains.
A light, a warm light flashed in front of Su Luoluo's eyes. Although it was daytime, although Shen Luoluo lowered her head, the warm light suddenly reminded her of something, something that made her feel curious and excited, and at the same time something that made her feel wordy, because there was a person who had told her many times about this matter.
If one day a man's hand holds this palace lamp and can emit a light that can make you feel warm, then you must hold on to this man, because he is your lucky star and he will become your future husband.
This is what her master told her, and the master told her that it was not what he said, but that the high priest of the tribe said it after he lost his mind, and the master explained the words several times when he handed over this palace lamp to Shen Luoluo, and in the years that followed, it almost became the words he kept repeating to her. She didn't pay much attention to Master's instructions, but when the High Priest said these words to her once before she died, she really believed it.
If there is no light, what light is there? Murong Shang's left hand held the palace lamp and looked up and down. Could it be that my eyes are spent, and there will be light in the daylight when there is no fire, maybe this is just an illusion generated by myself in the desert. Shen Luoluo was thinking about things like this, but at the same time, her eyes couldn't help but look at Murong Shang a few more times.
"And will my horse be sunburned to death at noon?" Murong Shang asked something that maybe even he didn't feel serious.
"It's just a matter of eating it together at night when it's sunburned, and it's hard to get enough meat for a wolf?" This sentence may only be said by a foodie, but Shen Luoluo is not a foodie, she is a smart person, maybe only a smart person will have such a statement about Murong Shang at this moment.
"My horse seems to have saved our lives!"
"This carriage seems to have helped us escape the catastrophe just now, and we weren't planning to burn it down in the evening." Shen Luoluo raised his face slightly, and said nonchalantly.
"The carriage is dead, but the horse is alive."
"You're alive too! And it seems that you are still the prince, and you are not just as stupid as staying as the queen of the palace for the betrayer of you. β
The words that Murong Shang still wanted to refute were instantly stuck in his throat, and he felt that he couldn't say anything anymore, maybe he couldn't say anything about Shen Luoluo.
The arrival of night is always a surprise. It's like a napper who falls asleep before the sky is bright, but when he wakes up, it's already a night when the stars are shining.
When Murong Shang woke up, not only were the stars shining in the night sky, but he also felt like a person was curled up in his arms. Of course, this person is Shen Luoluo, she was obediently curled up in a corner of the carriage before taking a nap, but now she is curled up in Murong Shang's arms.
The feeling of a beautiful woman throwing herself into her arms should have been a good thing for a man, but for the current Murong Shang, it was the opposite, the reason was because of the strange smell on Shen Luoluo's body, the fishy smell penetrated his nostrils, and Murong Shang's idea was to push her away and kick her out of the carriage with a hard kick. However, he has a more valid reason, that is, the current Shen Luoluo is not a beauty at all.
But Murong Shang didn't do this, because he felt warmth, a warmth he had never felt before.
His mind was clear now, and if he wasn't sober maybe he would have been lying like this all the time, but now he had to get up now and find a way to get out of here, because it was not only dark but the wind was already blowing.
His left hand groped for the palace lamp again, and the sound of the lark sounded instantly, and when he just wanted to light it with the flint beside him, the palace lamp slowly brightened in his hand.
The wind on the desert will not be warm, he moved his body lightly and woke up, this seemingly weak woman suddenly jumped like a grasshopper on the fire board, and quickly bounced off Murong Shang's body, she looked like a child who had done something wrong, and the force of the bounce could be seen as a vicious kick on Murong Shang's body.
"Do you want my life by kicking me like this?" Murong Shang coughed while beating his chest and said, Shen Luoluo's strength in his movements just now made him almost lose his breath.
Seeing Murong Shang's reaction like this, she felt that her strength just now was a little too much, but what made her feel even more excessive at this moment was the palace lamp that Murong Shang was holding in her hand at the moment, because the palace lamp was on. Over the years, countless people have picked up this palace lamp and it hasn't been lit, and she even has some doubts about whether what the master told her is true, but when the palace lamp really comes on, it turns on without any warning. She remembered what her master had told her, could it be that the man in front of her would be her true destiny?
Inside the carriage under the desert. The palace lights turned on, the bell rang, and Shen Luo was stupid.
Murong Shang was not stupid, on the contrary, he felt that he was very comfortable at the moment, because he felt that the bracelet he wore on his left wrist was full of warmth, which made his spirit hundreds of times more vigorous.
