There is a statue of a god enshrined in this dilapidated mountain temple, but due to disrepair, coupled with wind and rain, the color and face of the body are not clear, and I don't know which god it is.

Ye Xuemei turned her head to see that there was still a thick layer of straw under her, no wonder she didn't feel too uncomfortable when she fell asleep.

Gongliang Yuzhi lit a bonfire, on which the pheasant meat was roasted. Due to the scorching flame, the pheasant meat has already developed an enticing aroma. Gongliang Yuzhi picked up a broken crockpot, ripped off the best chicken thigh meat from the pheasant, and carefully tore it into small pieces, and then handed it to Ye Xuemei. Immediately afterwards, he handed her a wooden spoon, and then said, "Eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold!" ”

Ye Xuemei picked up the spoon and ate a few bites of pheasant, although it was not as delicious as the palace that had been carefully marinated with various spices, but because it was game, it was not so difficult to eat. Besides, she still has to replenish her physical strength to hurry, and it is definitely not possible to not eat it.

As she ate, she glanced at the wooden spoon and asked in surprise, "Is there any other wooden spoon like this to be found here?" ”

Gongliang Yu smiled faintly and replied: "In this deep mountain and wilderness, there are not so many tools for carving, so I used the dagger I carried with me to sharpen it indiscriminately, and finally cut it into the shape of a spoon, which can still be used." If you have a lot of tools to carry, or if you have enough time, you will definitely be given a pair of chopsticks. ”

Ye Xuemei listened to his words and did not answer, but said: "Let's put out the bonfire after I finish eating, otherwise the light is too bright, and it will be easy for the pursuers to find us." ”

Gongliang Yu shook his head with a smile and replied, "It's okay, this place is very secret, and no one will find out." Besides, I've had the prison knife squatting around here, and if he finds anything wrong, he'll come and report it in time. ”

Ye Xuemei frowned slightly, and asked, "When the prince went to the palace to save me, didn't he only bring two guards?" Why are there so many of them? Moreover, listening to the name, it is more mysterious, and it is not something that ordinary guards and servants can use. ”

Gongliang stopped asking her, and replied: "Yes, their names are indeed very special, and I gave them all to me. Most of them are orphans, nameless and unavoidable, and they don't know where their relatives are. They followed me, and I named them. In fact, this also represents expectations, and it is also counterproductive. I hope they can all live peacefully in the future, after all, being my guard can't avoid nine deaths. ”

It doesn't sound like much of a problem in itself, but if you think about it, you feel that there are many things worth exploring. If it were just an ordinary guard, he wouldn't have said such heavy words. Ye Xuemei stared at the firelight thoughtfully.

After the two were silent for a moment, Gongliang spoke first, and he said, "Miss, there are some things I don't understand very well, and I want to ask you." ”

The corners of Ye Xuemei's lips hooked up slightly, she had obviously guessed what Gongliang Yuzhi was going to ask. It's just that before she spoke, she said to him: "Don't call me any young lady in the future, now I am no longer the young lady of the Ye family, nor is I a talented person of Emperor Moxuan." In the future, you can call me a girl, so that it sounds good to the ear. ”

Gongliang knew that Ye Xuemei had experienced too many things, and he was no longer willing to show his past identity, he could understand, so he nodded and replied: "Okay!" ”
