Chapter 326: Heavenly Majesty is Impermanent
The atmosphere between husband and wife is getting more and more weird, at least in Li Su's eyes, this is called "weird".
Isn't it good to maintain the polite state of respecting each other like ice and raising eyebrows together? Why fly your eyes? Why do you want to be coquettish with such a soft and glutinous voice?
Li Su was very unaccustomed to it, since fighting the Turks that night, Xu Mingzhu's attitude had become a little different.
Maybe it's because of the experience of sharing hardships, maybe it's the intimate action of Li Su holding her into his arms in order to comfort her, or maybe a weak woman lacks a sense of security in this completely unfamiliar army and caravan......
So Xu Mingzhu completely pinned his body and mind on Li Su, he was the only reason why she came to this wasteland desert desperately, he was her honest husband, their marriage was even given by today's son, many reasons, in fact, there is only one sentence - he is her husband, and she has been taught since she was a child that a woman must love her husband.
No matter what the reason, Li Su is still not used to it.
"Husband, where do we live when we get to Xizhou? Will Lord Thorn Shi arrange a mansion for us? Xu Mingzhu's thoughts are not as complicated as Li Su, her mind is on daily firewood, rice, oil and salt.
Li Su smiled: "It should be arranged, but that kind of small earthen city in the desert, the mansion is not much better, I plan to pay for the workers to build a new house, no matter where I am, the most important thing is to make myself comfortable." ”
Xu Mingzhu nodded as a matter of course: "The husband has the title of county viscount, and the concubine body heard that he doesn't even have the title of assassin, so although the husband is a different driver, his status is still higher than him, uh-huh...... So it is natural that the husband's house is better than the Thorn History. ”
After judging the political status of his husband, Xu Mingzhu took the piece of mutton that was a little cold from Li Su's hand, and reinserted a piece of freshly roasted hot mutton with a delicate small dagger and handed it over.
"Husband eats this piece. Eat it hot and fragrant. ”
After finishing speaking, he put the cold piece just now by the bonfire and roasted it, and after it was hot, Xu Mingzhu opened his small mouth and ate the leftovers of Li Su just now, his expression was very calm, and the corners of his mouth even had a touching chuckle.
When she discarded the manners of the Lady of the Commandment. Putting aside all the talk of Yefeiye's neighbors, he went out of Chang'an alone and mixed in the Hu merchant team, looking for the strange and even a little cold husband for thousands of miles, for what?
The firelight reflected her face, and in those black eyes that shone like stars, two flames shone and jumped.
Xu Mingzhu stared blankly at the bonfire, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth rose higher and higher.
In this life, you must be happy. Like this fire.
***************************************************************
All the way to the west, repeating the boring journey every day, camping, setting off, camping again, and setting off again......
The calm desert hides an invisible danger, and the biggest enemy is the harsh climate, and it has only been ten days since entering the desert. The team encountered two sandstorms, one of which was lucky. The hired guide found out in advance that something was wrong, and he could still find a rocky mountain that had been weathered for an unknown number of years, and when the sandstorm came, everyone hid in the leeward place, watching the yellow sand and dust cover the sky and the sun, and the sky was full of light, and even the breath seemed to be choked.
The second sandstorm was not so lucky. This time, even the guide did not see the omen in advance, and the sandstorm suddenly came, and the experienced Hu Shang and the guide hurriedly led the team to a low-lying sandy area similar to a small basin, and all the goods and baggage were surrounded in a circle, and then the camels were surrounded in the inner circle. Everyone buried their heads, covered their faces with everything they could, and held hands tightly together, the sandstorm came extremely fiercely, the wind swept up the sand, and every fine grain of dust became a weapon to kill, Li Su and everyone gritted their teeth and struggled to support, until half an hour later, this sandstorm passed.
Afterwards, the loss was not small, more than 40 camels died, more than a dozen caravan men and guards died, four soldiers under Jiang Quan's command also died, and a lot of goods and baggage were lost, fortunately, everyone knew how precious food and water were in the desert, and everyone held the food and water bladder in their arms when the sandstorm came.
The road was hard, not only hard, but also dangerous.
The enemies in the desert are not only sandstorms, but also countless dangers hidden on the flat sand, poisonous scorpions, seemingly calm and waveless quicksand, and so on.
After walking for more than half a month, Li Su found that he was going crazy.
"How's the gang going?"
Camping at night, Li Su didn't know how many times he made suggestions in Jiang Quan's ear, every day he left, Li Su's idea of becoming a deserter became more urgent, and he didn't want to do it anymore no matter how high the official was, so he went home to accompany his father to farm, sell vegetables, and be a Tian Shelang who had no worries about food and clothing all his life, which was much better than blowing the wind and sand outside the plug and bearing an unknown dangerous future.
Jiang Quan's face was a little ugly, his fists were clenched several times, and then released, obviously in the battle between heaven and man, Li Su knew very well that if he was not the chief officer of this team, and the official position and title could only make him look up, Jiang Quan would have punched his head with a punch.
Isn't it great?
- The official university is really amazing, so Li Su knows very well that Jiang Quan wants to blow up his head, but he is still not afraid of death day after day to incite Jiang Quan to go home.
"Disperse, there is no future, there is really no future, let's divide the luggage, or simply loot the caravan, you and I will split the account, and then you go back to your Huaguo Mountain, and I will go back to my Gao Laozhuang...... How? ”
Jiang Quan ignored him, looked up at the sky, and took a deep breath.
"Give me a reaction, what do you mean by looking at the sky? You see, it's been less than a month since we entered the desert, and it's still two months closer to Xizhou here, if we go back at this time, we can get out of this damn desert in less than a month, and if we still move forward, we will have to take countless risks......" Li Su looked at Jiang Quan's face with convulsions, and said deeply: "I am the chief officer, and I am the weak chief officer, if I have three longs and two shorts in this desert, you, as the Guoyi Lieutenant who was sent by His Majesty to protect me, you still have to blame and wipe your neck?" General Jiang, you are still young and have an infinitely bright future, I am reluctant to let you die......"
"Don't worry about Li, the last general will protect you even if he tries his best, and will never let you have any three long and two short, if you can't do it, the last general is willing to die to apologize!"
Listening to Jiang Quan's hard answer, Li Su grinned.
Once a person falls into a painful and anxious mood, it is easy to become unlimited, such as Li Su at this moment......
Otherwise, go to find Na Yan at night, join forces with him to make Jiang Quan, and then divide the luggage and run away......
