Chapter 042: Moonlight
"Thank you, Sister Xue."
Hua Qing felt a little better, and tilted her head to prevent tears from falling. He took another big breath before he took a grunt.
"Sister Xue, do you know how to go back to Southern Xinjiang?"
"Southern Xinjiang?"
Hua Qing nodded. Sakura Fuxue glanced at Xiao Heng, turned around and smiled:
"We are now on the border between Beiliang and Fusang, and when we go back to Fusang tomorrow, if you want to go west from Fusang, you will have to go through Rongqi and Yuncangguo, and if you go west, you will have to go through Beiliang, and the Central Plains will reach southern Xinjiang. To tell the truth, if you want to go back to southern Xinjiang, a weak woman, a long journey, how many dangers are there along the way? Why don't you go back to Fusang with us first, and when His Highness is busy with the business in his hands, how about you send someone to send you back?" ”
Hua Qing was thinking about what if Xiao Heng was the same as Mo Huaijin and refused to send her back? Before she could say anything, Sakura Fukiyuki patted her.
"Do you smell it? The aroma of lamb chops. ”
Hua Qing sniffed hard, and sure enough, there were bursts of meat fragrance wafting in the air, as if mixed with the smell of a certain spice, which kept teasing her sense of smell.
Sakura Fuxue took the wooden skewer handed over by the soldier, handed it to Hua Qing, and said with a smile:
"You taste it."
Hua Qing looked at the charred and crispy lamb chops, swallowed and swallowed, but finally couldn't hold it, took it and turned her back to bite it in a big gulp.
The wild sheep originally had a very strong smell, but the lamb chops in Hua Qing's mouth had no smell at all, and the meat was tender and juicy, the taste was extremely burnt, and the traces of coarse salt had long been steamed and roasted without a trace, leaving only a salty and suitable taste, mixed with the richness of the rest of the seeds, it was simply the best in the world, no, the best meat in the world.
She didn't hesitate, she finished gnawing two lamb chops with silver teeth, and after eating, she refused to let go of even the remaining oil juice on the tips of her fingers, so she subconsciously turned around and saw the scene reflected in Xiao Heng's pupils - the appearance of sucking her fingers.
"Well, I didn't bring a square scarf, so I ......"
She couldn't make up a better excuse for a while, so she lied casually, but as she spoke, she forgot how to answer the next sentence, so she wanted to scratch her head in a hurry, but before the oil-stained hand touched her hair, she was caught by Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng took out a square handkerchief from his chest and stuffed it into her hand.
"There's a river next to it. If you don't have enough to eat, you can continue to eat, after all, Du You is too full during the day, and I don't plan to let him eat his meal. ”
Hua Qing was standing in place with an embarrassed face, as soon as she heard Xiao Heng say Du You, she remembered that Du You said to herself during the day that Xiao Heng was His Royal Highness the Prince, Xiao Heng thought he talked too much, and said I think you are too full, don't eat dinner at night.
She subconsciously went to look at Du You, only to see Du You sitting next to the fire grilling mutton skewers and lamb chops, and after they were done, they were distributed to the soldiers, so he really didn't give Du You food?
That Du You is too miserable!
It seems that this piece of ice in front of you cannot be offended. Fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead.
"No, I'm full."
Then she slipped to the river to wash her hands, and after washing, she washed the square handkerchief that Xiao Heng gave her.
When she returned to the fire, Xiao Heng was sitting by the fire without saying a word. This piece of ice is really strange, even if you stand up straight, you have to sit so straight, aren't you tired and panicked?
She held the square handkerchief to the fire, although the person was sitting, her eyes were not honest, she always glanced at Xiao Heng intentionally or unintentionally, she thought that Xiao Heng didn't find it, after all, he didn't squint, but when he held the wine bag and took a sip of wine, he said in a strange way:
"Look at me again and I'll gouge out your eyes."
Although her heart is weak, her mouth is hard.
"Which eye did you see me looking at you?"
Xiao Heng turned around coldly, staring at her with a dead gaze, and she trembled.
"You really love stinky beauty, do you think I'll stare at you when your skin is so good-looking? I'm not looking at you, I'm looking at the moon behind you. No, you see, tonight is the first quarter moon. ”
Xiao Heng didn't speak, and lowered his head and took a few sips of wine to himself. After the soldiers were full of food and drink, they all dispersed, and Sakura Fukiyuki and Du You also left the fire, as if they had left the place for the two of them very tacitly.
Hua Qing didn't think too much about it, but she was so envious of them, after all, they were all people who had tents to sleep on, and she could only guard the fire.
She hated the ice just now, but now she didn't want it to go, after all, once he left, she would be the only one left in the huge outfield.
She squatted and hugged her waist, holding a branch in her hand to stir the fire in front of her, but Xiao Heng stood up and walked away, and she panicked inexplicably.
"Hey, don't go!"
Xiao Heng turned around, but when she met her eyes, she suddenly blushed, she didn't know what was wrong with herself, she really couldn't understand why her face would be hot every time she met Xiao Heng's eyes, her heart sometimes missed half a beat, and sometimes it beat fast. She bowed her head in shame and habitually looked at her shoes and socks.
"You're gone, and I'm the only one left."
Xiao Heng was a little unaccustomed to her sudden soft tone, squinted, and glanced at the white and shining first quarter moon in the sky:
"I don't get in the way of you looking at the moon."
Hua Qing suddenly stood up and said to Xiao Heng:
"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way. Looking at you is the same as looking at the moon. ”
Oh my God, she can't just stare at the fire and the moon, it's good to have someone who can move!
Xiao Heng suddenly frowned, Hua Qing couldn't understand his expression, just looked at him with an embarrassed look.
"What's wrong with you?"
Hua Qing asked with concern, Xiao Heng pointed to the corner of Hua Qing's skirt, and Hua Qing lowered her head.
"Ahh Help me! Help me! ”
Xiao Heng looked at Hua Qing who was dancing while stomping his feet, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a faint smile.
She seemed to be very clumsy, and said that she would not hinder her moon, but she stood up suddenly, and she was clearly by the fire, but she never noticed that the swing of the corner of her skirt was too large, and she swept the tongue of fire, and she was ignited without realizing it. Blindly busy explaining to herself, saying that she didn't mind staying on her own.
He looked at the girl in front of him, still fluttering the flames at the corner of his skirt, he jumped up, picked up the girl, flew up, and after a while flew to the river, he remembered that she could swim, and looked at the flames at the corner of her skirt that were not completely extinguished and threw her directly into the river.
The waves splashed, Hua Qing popped up, she wiped her face and coughed a few times. Xiao Heng stepped on the water again and flew to the surface of the river and scooped her up.
It wasn't long before she was back by the fire.
"Haqiu!"
She shivered with cold. She didn't know how she got into the water or how she got back from the water, she only knew that she was soaked all over, but Xiao Heng was not wet at all.
Xiao Heng turned around and lifted her feet, but she suddenly retracted her horns and looked at Xiao Heng very vigilantly.
Xiao Heng raised his eyes to look at her, the wet ends of her hair were still dripping, and the condensation beads on her face had not dried, like a white lotus after the rain.
He took her foot again, and even though she tried to struggle, the channel could not resist his strength.
"If you don't want to break a bone, don't move around."
His words were always cold and threatening, and they were irresistible.
Hua Qing wasn't making trouble, after he removed her shoes and socks, he couldn't help frowning after investigating the injury.
