First Bloom
"Lord Wang." Changning greeted him from afar, his face full of joy.
Xiao Yu smiled and asked about something, and then walked to a clearing with Hua Jinse on his back.
"Let me go." Hua Jinse glanced at the clearing, tiptoeing to try to stand.
Xiao Yu turned her head sideways and looked at her, helped her to sit on the stone on the side, and advised: "You don't sit and don't walk around, just tell Changning to do something." ”
Hua Jinse was noncommittal, and untied the basket on his back.
"Squeak, squeak." A white hairball crumbled around his ears and whispered.
Hua Jinse carefully turned it over and checked the injury. By the way, I opened the small baggage I carried with me and took the jerky to feed it.
"Squeak! Creak! The fox looked away in disgust.
The jerky is not fresh at first glance, so it will not eat it.
Hua Jinse held the jerky and waited for a while, but he didn't see it move his mouth, so he simply forgot it.
"Chu Xi." Hua Jinse called out to Feng Chuxi, who was sitting on the side of the fire, and handed her the fox in his hand.
Under the reflection of the dynamic firelight, Hua Jinse did not return to the usual coldness, but added a bit of beauty. A few strands of wet hair stuck to his face, and Hua Jinse at this moment was like a water demon who had just come out of the water in Feng Chuxi's eyes, beautiful but charming.
"Sister Fusang......" Feng Chuxi looked at Hua Jinse in a daze and muttered to herself, "If I were a man, I would definitely marry you." ”
Hua Jinse was taken aback by Feng Chuxi's words, and then burst into laughter, "What are you talking about." ”
Feng Chuxi embarrassedly took the fox and put it on his lap to roast the fire.
After a while, Xiao Yu found a small blanket from nowhere and spread it in the open space next to the fire.
Hua Jinse looked at him without blinking.
Xiao Yu walked over and helped Hua Jinse sit down on the blanket. Then he took out a handful of fruit from behind him and pushed it to Hua Jinse, "They have tried these Changning, and they are non-toxic." ”
Hua Jinse nodded and took a few for Feng Chuxi and Eleven.
"Aren't you going to do it?" Hua Jinse chewed the fruit and looked up indistinctly and asked.
Xiao Yu watched Hua Jinse chew food in small bites, like a hamster stealing food.
I want to reach out and poke it......
Xiao Yu thought so, and really did so.
Hua Jinse choked and raised his head to look at him, "What are you doing?" ”
Xiao Yu coughed lightly and withdrew his hand, "It's okay." ”
Hua Jinse stared at him puzzled for a while, and continued to lower his head and nibble on the fruit.
"Squeak, squeak!" At some point, a white ball rolled over and looked at the fruit in Hua Jinse's arms greedily.
Xiao Yu squinted his eyes and lifted the white ball up, and said, "It seems that this injury is almost healed." ”
"Squeak!" A certain fox screamed in terror.
It hadn't forgotten that the man in front of it said he was going to bake it.
Hua Jinse straightened up slightly and rescued it from Xiao Yu's hands, "The injuries on its body haven't healed yet." ”
Xiao Yu put the fox in his hand in the corner of the blanket, and then saw it pull a fruit with a sigh.
Feng Chuxi also came over curiously at this moment, watching the fox pick up a fruit and nibble quickly.
"Fox...... Vegetarian? Feng Chuxi frowned, obviously incomprehensible.
Hua Jinse shook her head, she didn't know. But if you don't starve, you can feed yourself.
When the fire was almost done, and each of them was tired, they went back to their tents to rest, except for a few of the men who had arranged for the vigil.
Hua Jinse, Feng Chuxi and the Mao Tuanzi lived in the same tent.
At night, listening to the sound of rain outside the tent mixed with the sound of insects, Hua Jinse couldn't sleep for a long time. The pain in her ankle had eased a lot, and it seemed that the medicine she had applied had worked, and she should be able to walk freely tomorrow.
The chaotic thoughts filled Hua Jinse's entire head, and gradually, he also became sleepy.
When I woke up the next day, the rain had stopped, but the road was still a little slippery.
When Hua Jinse came out, everyone had already packed up, and they looked like they were waiting for the battle, and Hua Jinse was shocked in his heart, and he understood that there would be a change.
"Eleven." Hua Jinse led Feng Chuxi to Eleven, put the little fox in his arms into the basket, and solemnly instructed: "No matter what happens in a while, Eleven must protect Chuxi." As for this fox, if it doesn't work, let it go. ”
Feng Chuxi also vaguely sensed the seriousness of the situation, and did not quarrel with Eleven anymore, but obediently followed Eleven's side.
Xiao Yu was thinking about countermeasures with Changning at this time.
"Liancheng has already received the letter?"
Changning stood opposite Xiao Yu and said, "I got it, the person who came should be on the way." ”
Xiao Yu looked around at the surrounding situation, not knowing what he was thinking.
Changning added, "Lord Wang, why don't we stay a little longer and wait for the support of others." ”
Xiao Yu smiled, "I've thought about this too, but the terrain here is empty, and it's not a good place to hide." Staying here is tantamount to trapping yourself in one place. ”
Changning instantly understood the meaning of Xiao Yu's words, lowered his head and stopped talking.
If reinforcements from Liancheng don't arrive in time, they will be waiting to die if they stay here.
After a short rest, the crowd began to hurry.
Walk on the mountain road with one foot in the mud, one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Although Feng Chuxi is not a young lady who is raised in the deep boudoir every day, she can't stand the mud spots on her skirt now, so she has to tiptoe carefully to avoid those small puddles.
Eleven couldn't stand it anymore, so he directly lifted her collar and put her on a clean road.
"The road here is narrow, and no one can save you if you fall."
Feng Chuxi pouted unhappily, but he still followed Eleven's words and walked well, and did not contradict him.
Along the way, Hua Jinse followed Xiao Yu all the time, but she was tightly holding a roughly carved flute in her hand.
Xiao Yu didn't ask her about the use of this flute, but just tried his best to protect her.
After walking a long distance, there was no attack, and everyone's spirits slowly relaxed.
Seeing that he was about to reach the foot of the mountain, at this time, the back basket behind Eleven let out a scream: "Squeak! Squeak squeak! ”
Feng Chuxi was curious and wanted to take it out, but when he was appeased, Eleven's face changed suddenly, and he grabbed Feng Chuxi.
At the same time, a cold arrow shot into the ground in front of Feng Chuxi, and the arrow feathers were still trembling slightly.
"Damn it!" Eleven cursed in a low voice, quickly untied the basket on his back, drew out his long sword, and protected Feng Chuxi behind him.
The others also reacted at this time, and gathered together one after another, forming a circle, for fear that one would accidentally touch the path of others.
Xiao Yu stood on the side of Hua Jinse's body, but there was no other weapon in his hand, only an ordinary folding fan, and the fan was also painted with landscapes.
Hua Jinse pulled the flute in his hand and looked ahead calmly.
Fang Cai's arrow was like a signal. One after another, countless arrows were shot at the people.
Because of the preparations made in advance, and the others present except Hua Jinse and Feng Chuxi, the others were all good players, so there were no casualties.
After a while, the overwhelming array of arrows disappeared, replaced by a dense crowd of black-clad men who came out of nowhere.
The weapons in their hands glowed with coldness, and they gathered around everyone one after another.
I don't know who started, the first sound of weapons handing over sounded, and the four began to mix.
The number of those men in black was more than five times that of them, and slowly, everyone also felt powerless.
More than a dozen black-clothed men pressed towards Xiao Yu and Hua Jinse step by step. Xiao Yu just glanced at them lightly, and the contempt in his eyes was obvious.
Hua Jinse watched him wave the folding fan in his hand, and several cold rays of light drilled out from between his folding fans and scurried into all parts of the black-clothed man's body.
With a series of screams, five or six men in black fell to the ground in a daze, dying.
Hua Jinse wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at the men in black, "What did you smear on it?" ”
Xiao Yu smiled lightly and threw the folding fan in his hand.
There weren't many hidden weapons in that fan, just enough for him to kill a few people. Now that the hidden weapon has run out, this fan is useless.
Hua Jinse clenched the flute in his hand and stepped aside.
I saw Xiao Yu pull out the soft sword wrapped around his waist and slash a man in black who pounced under the sword, bright red blood splashed on the hem of his clothes, and more of it penetrated into the soil under his feet.
But this is only one of them, more and more people in black are falling, but Hua Jinse's own situation is not optimistic. The physical strength is constantly depleted, and the body is constantly leaving gaps.
The flute in Hua Jinse's hand was left by her fingernails.
"Ahh Feng Chuxi screamed in surprise to avoid the man in black who suddenly appeared in front of her, and a deep imprint remained on the land beside her.
Hua Jinse took a deep breath and blew the flute in his hand without hesitation.
The melodious and long flute sounded abruptly in everyone's ears.
"This ......" Several guards of the Feng Mansion clearly saw their swaying figures in each other's eyes.
Xiao Yu's head felt chaotic because of the sound of the flute, and he actually thought of the sound of the piano that day and night in a trance......
"Bang!" The weapon in the hand of a man in black smashed straight to the ground, and the whole person fell backwards.
This successive pictures then appeared in front of Hua Jinse.
The only people who can still stand on the field are Hua Jinse and Xiao Yu.
Even Eleven, who often listened to her piano music, was not spared at this time, and she was embarrassed to use her sword to maintain her figure.
Hua Jinse looked at Feng Chuxi who was sitting on the ground, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Huh!" A sword aura pierced the air and approached Hua Jinse.
At the critical moment, a white ball came over with agility, lying on the lap of the man in black and biting hard.
The hand holding the sword shook violently, visibly deviating from its trajectory, and only cutting off a strand of Hua Jinse's hair.
