195. Escape from the valley
Behind him was a raging fire, and the howls of wolves. From time to time, wolves burst out of the fire, but these beasts didn't have the heart to attack the four people who were also fleeing for their lives.
Taniguchi should not be far away, the fire seems to have reached the extreme, the temperature of the fire roasted Nuo Min's back is slightly hot, and the hands that are being pulled by Nangong Jin are full of sweat, as if they will slip off at any time. Nomin held him hard, and could only run after him as hard as she could. Suddenly, his hand loosened, and he was shocked, "Yunshi! ā
Nangong Jin's footsteps slowed down, and he didn't look back, but firmly grabbed Nuo Min's wrist at an extremely fast speed.
The further you get to the valley, the stronger the wind. The fire in the valley was blown out by the wind with a transcendent momentum, but it seemed to be fixed in that position, and the flames no longer chased them upward, forming a wall of fire near the narrow mouth of the valley. Inside is the hell of fire, and outside is the escape from the ascension.
Nangong Jin only felt that his heart hurt so much that he couldn't breathe, his eyes were black, and he couldn't see the road ahead clearly, but he kept running forward. The children seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, and seemed to hear Cheng Jun anxiously whispering something in his ear. I don't know if I got out of the valley, I don't know where I am, and in an instant, all my consciousness leaves me.
Nangong Jin fell down like this, and unconsciously blocked his right arm, trying not to press Cheng Rui in his arms.
Three people exclaimed at the same time!
I don't know how long it took, Nangong Jin felt a strong smell of medicine in his mouth, several acupuncture points on his body had obvious sourness, and a small body hugged his arm tightly.
When I opened my eyes, the sky was full of stars. Although it was windy, it was not cold, because he was lying on a felt mat, covered with a piece of fur, and next to him was Cheng Rui who fell asleep with his arm in his arms, and there were tears on his face.
At first glance, it was already a grassland, surrounded by six or seven fires of various sizes, which could not be compared with the fires in the valley at all, but barely kept out, and the howling of wolves could still be faintly heard.
By the light of the fire, I saw two horses standing not far away. A few paces away from him, Cheng Jun and Nuo Min had untied their belongings, each draped in a piece of fur, and were trying to set up a small tent.
Nangong Jin took a breath, although he didn't have much strength, his chest didn't hurt so much. So, he gently pulled out his arm and sat up, pulling the piece of fur over it to help Cheng Rui cover it tighter.
Cheng Jun looked up and found that he was awake, and immediately put down the things in his hand and ran over, looking at Nangong Jin with a nervous face, "Master......." ā
Nangong Jin made a silent posture, pointed at Cheng Rui and whispered, "I'm fine." What are you doing? As he spoke, he got up and led Chengjun to the pile of materials.
Nomin had been looking at him worriedly, as if he didn't dare to come to his side. Nangong Jin glanced at her and ignored her.
Chengjun reported to him: "We lit a fire, which Master taught. There are so many wolves here, so we'll have more. However, we couldn't find much to burn, and the grass burned down at once, so we pulled a lot of it, but we still destroyed a few. Suddenly thinking of something, he hurriedly asked, "Master, are you cold?" While asking, he gave the skin on his body to Nangong Jin.
Nangong Jin shook his head with a smile, "It's not cold." So many fires. ā
"No, Master is sick and prone to cold." Cheng Jun insisted.
Nangong Jin saw a handkerchief tied indiscriminately on his arm, with blood stains, and directly pulled it up to check, "What's the matter?" Injured? Then, he quickly retrieved a vial of gold medicine from his luggage, and removed a water bladder from his horse.
The wound was very long, the blood had dried and stuck to the clothes, Nangong Jin carefully tore open the sleeves of his clothes, washed them with water and bandaged them with medicine. Cheng Jun grinned in pain, but he didn't cry or shout.
Nangong Jin looked at him, touched his head, and said guiltily, "I'm sorry, it's Master's fault." ā
Cheng Jun lowered his head and said softly: "Cheng Jun shouldn't sneak out, let alone take Cheng Rui." Master, Cheng Jun is really wrong. We have caused Master to ...... like this. Tears flowed silently.
"It's none of your business, it's me who didn't take care of you. It shouldn't have happened, I'm sorry. Seeing that Chengjun was still crying with his head down, Nangong Jin reached out to wipe away the tears on his face, and smiled: "Anyway, we will receive the punishment when we get home." Right now....... Nangong Jin looked at the pile of tent materials, "I'll prop it up, and you and Cheng Rui will sleep first." I'll talk about the rest at dawn. So saying, he set his hands on the tent.
Chengjun wiped his tears, stopped crying, and helped very obediently on the side.
"By the way, have you eaten?"
Chengjun glanced at Nuo Min and didn't answer.
Nangong Jin also looked at Nuo Min, and didn't know who to say, "I'll take a look later, there should be a ...... of cooked wolf meat in the valley." ā
"Don't go!" Cheng Jun shook his head desperately, pulled Nangong Jin and said, "Master can't be tired, can't run, can't do these things, otherwise he will get sick immediately." IāI don't want Master to be so uncomfortable. ā
Nangong Jin was embarrassed by what he said, and said embarrassedly: "It's okay, really." Just now, I just didn't sleep last night. ā
Nuo Min answered softly: "There is a small bag of fried rice." ā
Nangong Jin nodded and didn't look at her, "Okay." "No more words, but speeding up the construction of tents.
The tent was small and low, and it was originally only used for the little pigeons to protect themselves from the wind and snow at night.
Nangong Jin carefully picked up Cheng Rui and put him in the tent. I wanted to heat up the fried rice again and give it to everyone to eat, but Chengjun was very resolute not to let Nangong Jin get these again, saying that he was not hungry. Nangong Jin sent him to sleep in the tent for a while, Cheng Jun wanted to say something, but seeing that the atmosphere between Nangong Jin and Nuo Min seemed to be awkward, he obediently went into the tent to sleep with Cheng Rui.
Nangong Jin looked at Nuo Min and straightened out a few fires, "Do you want to squeeze with them?" I can sleep for a while. ā
Nomin looked up at him and asked, "What about you?" ā
Nangong Jin sat down and fiddled with the fire in front of him, "There are wolves in this place, I'm watching." ā
"No, it doesn't. You just ....... Nomin looked at him worriedly.
"I'm fine."
Nuo Min didn't believe these three words at all, and said: "Chengjun fed you medicine, and has been helping you rub your chest, he said that if you don't do this, you will ...... die." ā
Nangong Jin interrupted her, "You better go to sleep." Wait for dawn to send you to the board. ā
"What about you?"
"Back to the Central Plains."
Nomin knew he would leave, but he couldn't help but ask, "When will you go?" ā
"Send you to, we won't go into the city."
Nuo Min was stunned, hurriedly shook his head, and whispered: "No! If you are sick, if you must go, wait until you are well. Seeing that Nangong Jin didn't speak, he hesitated and said, "The Central Plains is so far away, you can't go like this, right?" Is it the first to get ready for the board? Children, still ....... ā
When Nangong Jin heard her say this, a mocking smile appeared on her face, "You said that the children will be fine, I believe you." The result? Actually, you don't care about what happens to the children at all, don't act like you care. ā
"IāI didn't know he would do that......." Nomin burst into tears, "I thought, I thought he was just talking. ā
The two of them didn't speak again, only the 'beep' of the fire.
Finally, Nangong Jin sighed softly, "If, you don't want to sleep, let's talk." ā
Nomin nodded.
Nangong Jin didn't seem to know where to start, looked at the fire, and said, "At the beginning, we met, but you didn't even look at me. Very arrogant, this should also be, county lord, the direct line of the golden family, Altan Khan is your uncle. Actually, if you were just an ordinary Mongolian aristocratic lady, I wouldn't do anything. There was only one reason why I chased you at the beginning, because you were the county lord ....... ā
"No, no!" Nomin interrupted him, not believing him at all.
Nangong Jin waved his hand, "Listen to me." "I picked a fire and let it burn more vigorously, "I am a Han Chinese, if a Han can catch up with the Mongolian county lord, it is a great thing among the Han people of Tumochuan." Your Abba did tell me that he wanted me to break up with you, and I agreed. Because, I thought at the time, the more remarkable thing than catching up with a county lord was to get rid of her ....... ā
"It's not! Yunshi, you don't have to say that, I know it's not! With tears in her eyes, Nomin shook her head. Every time, whenever I am in danger, you will stand up and protect me. It was before, and it was just now. Even if you, you ......, you will still do it. ā
Nangong Jin sighed, "You yourself said it was dangerous." Even if it's an ordinary friend, or even a stranger, whenever there's danger, I think I'll do it, not because of you. ā
Nomin kept shaking his head.
Nangong Jin smiled helplessly, "What I want to say is that in fact, I have been playing the game of chasing people and throwing people." I've met serious ones, but I didn't think you would be so serious. ā
Nuo Min's tears flowed down, and he didn't believe what Nangong Jin said at all.
"Do you know why I haven't been to Tumochuan for more than a year?" Nangong Jin didn't want her to answer, but Nuo Min still shook his head, "I'm sick, I almost ......." My family was already preparing for me at that time. ā
Nuo Min looked up at Nangong Jin fiercely, thinking of his situation just now, he was even more worried, "You ......." ā
Nangong Jin didn't give her a chance to speak, and continued, "Between life and death, people always think a lot." For example, I think the previous games were really boring at all. It's been more than a year, and I thought you were getting married early. Really, Nomin, you make me feel guilty. I'm sorry, but I was in the Central Plains, and I vowed to live a good life. ā
Nuo Min burst into tears and looked at Nangong Jin, "I don't believe you haven't liked me." ā
Nangong Jin smiled bitterly, "Maybe I said it, but you don't believe it." I haven't liked anyone. ā
Nomin looked at him, full of grievances, and cried, "No, no...... ā
"Nomin, let's find someone to marry." Nangong Jin said more, "However, forget that Yier, he has a white face, and he is more scum than me." ā
Nomin looked at him, his eyes full of tenderness, "You still care about me...... ā
"Well, when I didn't say it." Nangong Jin was helpless.
