Chapter 153: What Do You Think About Me?
Although the kiss was soft and gentle, it was also excessively long, and when Chu Huai'an evacuated, Su Li's lips felt a fine tingle.
His face was already hot as if it was about to burn, Su Li didn't dare to look at his eyes, he only ate with his head bored, Chu Huai'an was eating much faster than her now, so he sat there and looked at her directly, as if he was looking at a very delicious delicacy, and he was going to eat it in his stomach in a few days.
Su Li was uncomfortable, and was about to put down the dishes and chopsticks, but the person's face was slightly gloomy, and he ordered in a cold voice: "Ah Li, eat more." β
ββ¦β¦β
How can you manage so much?
Su Li was a little dissatisfied, and whispered in her heart, Chu Huai'an put a chopstick dish into her bowl, and her voice softened a little: "You are too thin, eat more, behave." β
ββ¦β¦β
What's going on with this tone of coaxing children? Master Hou, what have you experienced in the past year or so?
Su Li was surprised and suspicious and ate an extra bowl of rice, and after eating, the innkeeper removed the dishes and chopsticks and brought hot water to wash up.
Su Li twisted the handkerchief to wash her face, lowered her head and inadvertently saw her face reflected in the basin, and couldn't help but think slightly, could it be that the elder didn't die a year ago, and he was still disguised as Chu Huai'an? Otherwise, how could this human nature change so much?
Su Li's heart was full of suspicions, and people were also vigilant, while washing their faces, they looked at Chu Huai'an with their residual eyes, after the reunion, this person didn't like to laugh, the expression on his face was cold, and he never took his eyes off her for a moment, is this too much concern or surveillance in disguise?
Thinking of this, Su Li wiped her face casually and walked towards the door, and Chu Huaian immediately blocked the door.
"I want to go to the hut."
"I'll go with you."
"......" Su Li really couldn't hold back, and the corners of her eyes twitched: "What are you going to do with me?" If I squat a little longer, will you just be outside and watch? β
Chu Huai'an didn't think about it, and immediately replied: "Well, I'm guarding you." β
Su Li was hit in the chest, and then made an unexpected movement, she raised her hand and rubbed it Chu Huai'an's face.
Chu Huai'an was surprised for a moment, then straightened his body and let her do anything.
Su Li was tired of rubbing, and seeing that his face was rubbed red, she poked his cheek, a little depressed: "Why did you become less like you?" Chu Huai'an raised his hand with a tense face and rubbed it on the top of her head: "It's not early, don't make trouble, you rest early, and you have to hurry tomorrow." β
"Oh."
Su Li turned around and went back to the bed to lie down, although the weather was a little hot, she couldn't resist the fact that there was a person on the side of the bed looking at her, she still wrapped herself in the quilt, slept for a while and turned around, and saw Chu Huai'an standing one step away from the bed, her back straight like a green bamboo.
"Aren't you tired?"
"Not tired."
He shook his head, his expression was resolute, Su Li pursed his mouth, everyone had been on the road together for several days, he was not a god, how could he not be tired?
Su Li arched into the bed and patted the vacant seat that had been vacated: "You can sleep for a while." β
Chu Huai'an's expression moved slightly, as if he was attracted by Su Li's proposal, but after thinking for a moment, he shook his head again.
"I took the initiative to invite, and you still don't sleep?"
Su Li frowned, Chu Huai'an's throat rolled up and down, and his eyes looking at Su Li became obscure: "Are you sure you want to sleep with me?" β
He bit the word 'sleep' very hard, feeling that it was not a simple state, but a very complex and changeable process.
Su Li was startled by his gaze, and quickly turned her head and shrank to the corner of the bed, even covering her head into the quilt: "I slept!" β
"Don't cover your head, it'll get boring."
Chu Huai'an whispered, and Su Li obediently pulled down the quilt to reveal her mouth and nose.
Chu Huai'an blew out the candles, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, the quiet moonlight covered the window with a layer of lustrous luster, and his heart gradually became full.
I don't know how long it took, but he said in a very low voice: Ah Li, I have always been me.
Xu knew that she was safe, Su Li slept very deeply that night, and when she woke up again, she found that she was not on the bed, but lying on a person's back, and a cloak covered her head.
This man's back was thick and warm, and because the summer shirt was light, she could clearly feel the tightness and shape of the texture on his back.
"Master Hou?"
Su Li called out suspiciously, Chu Huai'an paused slightly, and someone next to him handed over a hot steamed bun with white flowers: "Madam, let's eat something." β
"Thank you!"
Su Li took the steamed bun, took a bite and almost choked herself after reacting consciously, this person just called her Mrs. Do they all know about her and Chu Huai'an?
Su Li couldn't help but lean over and whisper to Chu Huai'an: "You let them call it that?" But we haven't married yet, isn't that okay? β
As he was talking, Chu Huai'an stopped, and the hand that was in the crook of Su Li's leg was upside down, Su Li hurriedly hugged his neck, and when he looked up, he found that Chu Huai'an had carried her to the city gate.
Su Li looked left and right, and saw that the soldiers next to him were all wearing Yuanzhao's clothes, and they had not disguised themselves as Hu people, so she couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Since the battle between Yuanzhao and the Hu people, Kutar has issued an order, within the territory, but all the people of Yuanzhao must be carefully investigated, do they want to go out of the city like this?
Su Li felt that this was too blatant, and was about to make Chu Huai'an restrain a little, when she saw a few soldiers draw their long swords a few steps away from the city gate and kill them.
The blades met, and soon the blood was seen, and the people in the city fled in shock, Chu Huai'an was not shocked, and walked forward from the bloody battle with Su Li on his back very calmly.
ββ¦β¦β
Master Hou, are you too arrogant like this?
The smell of blood spread in the air, and Su Li heard the sound of the Hu warriors on the city tower blowing the warning horn, followed by a high-pitched and loud whistle, and after a while, more than ten horses rushed to the city gate, and the light brown horse led by Chu Huai'an was riding before.
When the horse arrived, Chu Huaian put Su Li on the horse, and then he turned over on the horse, grabbed the reins of the horse and protected Su Li in his arms.
"Drive!"
He let out a low shout, and the horse immediately galloped wildly, and there was a whooshing sound behind him, and it was the man on the castle tower who fired an arrow.
Su Li's heart tightened, a little worried that Chu Huai'an would be hit by an arrow, and the next moment, the horse reins were stuffed into her hands.
"Keep going, don't be afraid!"
When the words fell, Su Li felt that Chu Huai'an let go of her, Su Li drove the horse, and involuntarily turned back, just in time to see Chu Huai'an and those soldiers all sitting on their backs, holding a longbow in their hands, and each with three arrows in their hands.
"Put!"
Chu Huai'an ordered, everyone released arrows together, and a moment later, the corpses of several soldiers fell from the city tower.
It turned out to be an arrow!
Su Li gasped, what are these people? Could it be that Chu Lingzhao gave Chu Huai'an someone from the secret guard?
Su Li thought, everyone else quickly turned around and concentrated on riding the horse, and Chu Huai'an drew another arrow and put it on the bow.
This distance is actually beyond the range of the bow and arrow, but Chu Huai'an didn't stop, aiming for a while, Chu Huai'an let go, the arrow galloped away, and in the exclamation and abuse of the Hu people, the flag on the city tower fell to the ground.
From such a distance, still with a bump on horseback, he actually shot directly at the flag rope! What kind of precision and power is this?
Su Li was so surprised that she didn't know what to say, Chu Huai'an turned around after finishing work, looked at Su Li's surprised gaze, frowned slightly, and took the reins of the horse: "Scared?" β
"No, I just think you're so good now."
Su Li was frank, Chu Huai'an's face did not change, his eyes lit up a little, and after a while, he responded lightly: "Hmm." β
I'm pretty good right now, so no one can hurt you half a point anymore.
When they rode their horses into the border pass, it was already evening, and the remnant sun was like blood, covering the war-torn city with a layer of misery, and the people inside saw them open the gate early.
The road was unimpeded, and Chu Huaian took Su Li directly to the barracks.
The people in the barracks were training, and from a distance, Su Li vaguely heard Lu Ji's deep voice coming from the school ground: "What do you see!" All of them will be fined Zama for an hour! β
This situation was the same as when she watched Lu Ji train in the barracks, and she could even imagine the painful and helpless expressions on the faces of those soldiers, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but hook.
Chu Huai'an directly brought Su Li back to his camp tent, he is the boss, the camp tent is naturally much better than other people's, in addition to a bed and a table in the tent, there is even a screen, the screen is a delicate double-sided embroidery, one side is embroidered with idle clouds and wild cranes, and the other side is embroidered with bamboo houses and villages.
As soon as Chu Huai'an put Su Li on the bed, a familiar voice sounded outside the tent: "Did Master Hou bring Ah Li back safely?" β
"Is it Sister Yan?"
Su Li was surprised, Yue Yan had already heard her voice, and without waiting for Chu Huai'an to respond, he opened the curtain and rushed in: "Ah Li! β
Yue Yan was in a hurry, wanting to pull Su Li to take a closer look, Chu Huai'an quietly blocked in front of Su Li, Yue Yan hurriedly stopped, crossed Chu Huai'an's shoulder and looked at Su Li with red eyes: "Ah Li, are you okay?" β
"I'm fine, shouldn't my sister be in Jingzhong? How is it here? β
Su Li's face was inexplicable, Yue Yan couldn't hold back, and burst into tears: "Ah Li, why don't you tell me if you want to leave, if I know that Kutar is going to take you away, I will accompany you no matter what!" β
She originally thought that after returning to Beijing, Su Li should live a happy life, but she didn't think that Kutar would intervene sideways.
The huge Yuanzhao, why do you have to let Su Li carry such a heavy burden alone?
"Where did my sister say, Kutar won't want my life, what are you doing with me in vain."
Su Li is there alone, and she can still find a way to deal with anything, but if Yue Yan follows, she will have a weakness, and she will be restrained in whatever she does.
Yue Yan nodded, knowing that what Su Li said was right, thinking of what she said just now, she couldn't help but feel distressed: "For more than a year, Ah Li, you must have suffered a lot." β
After Yue Yan said this, Su Li keenly noticed the change in Chu Huai'an's aura, and couldn't help but deliberately relax her tone: "No, don't you see that I'm not doing well now." β
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Huaian leaned sideways slightly, and said coldly: "She has an injury on her knee." β
"Knee injury? How did it hurt? β
Yue Yan immediately became nervous, stepped forward as he spoke, and couldn't help but pick up Su Li's trouser leg.
Su Li's skin is white, she hasn't seen much sunlight for more than a year, and her trouser legs are opened, and her slender calves are so white that they glow.
Yue Yan was anxious to check Su Li's body, but he didn't think of the rule that men and women are different, so he reached out and touched and rubbed Su Li's knee.
"Does it hurt?"
Yue Yan asked, because he was distressed and didn't use much force, Su Li honestly cooperated: "A little." β
"What's the pain?"
"Tingling, kind of like a pinprick."
Hearing this, Yue Yan carefully massaged Su Li's knees: "How do you feel?" β
"It's a little hot after the sting, and the bones are still a little itchy."
"It seems that this massage is effective." Yue Yan breathed a sigh of relief, so it seemed that this injury was not too difficult to treat: "In the future, I will come to massage you for a quarter of an hour every day, and before going to bed at night, fumigation with herbs for half an hour, for half a year, it should be better." β
After Yue Yan finished speaking, he took Su Li's hand to check her pulse, and was a little surprised to see that her pulse was stable and peaceful in all aspects, and saw that there was a red mark on Su Li's eyebrows, and reached out to touch it.
"What is the heart of the eyebrows?"
"I don't know, it was ordered by a wizard from the Hu clan."
Su Li concealed the saying of the dead flowers, after leaving the altar with Chu Huai'an that day, she found that her wind and cold had healed, and people were also in good spirits, and now there is no adverse reaction, so there is no need to say it to make them worry.
Yue Yan carefully checked the red marks on Su Li's eyebrows, and saw that there was nothing abnormal in her pulse, so he was also relieved.
As soon as Yue Yan finished helping Su Li check, Chu Huai'an suddenly walked outside the camp tent, his body blocked the camp tent to death, and Lu Ji walked to the door and stopped.
looked past Chu Huai'an and looked in, but unfortunately the curtain was so hidden that he couldn't see anything.
"Is she okay?"
Lu Ji asked, Chu Huai'an was expressionless: "It has nothing to do with you." β
"I'm her brother-in-law." Lu Ji said in a deep voice, Chu Huai'an was louder than him: "I am her fiancΓ©!" β
Lu Ji pursed his lips and was speechless, Chu Huai'an remained still, and the silent contest between the two was stagnant.
Yue Yan opened the curtain and came out to see such a scene, his eyes swirling suspiciously between the two: "General, what are you doing?" β
"I'm here to see Ah Li."
"Ah Li, she ......" Yue Yan was just about to answer, and a soldier hurriedly ran over: "General Lu, there is movement in the Hu people!" β
ββ¦β¦β
Lu Ji hesitated, and the soldier urged again: "General, the big war is coming!" β
Yes, the big war is coming, and this battle must be won!
Lu Ji no longer hesitated, turned around and left with the soldier, and after walking for more than ten steps, the soldier quickly turned his head and gestured at Chu Huai'an.
That gesture was their commonly used code language, Chu Huai'an bowed slightly in response, Yue Yan was closer to Chu Huai'an, and he could see that the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and the light of calculation was reflected in his eyes.
"You deliberately let people take away the general?"
Yue Yan frowned, he didn't agree with Chu Huai'an's approach, although Su Li once liked Lu Ji, but that was already in the past, Chu Huai'an was so anti-landing Lu Halberd, was it a kind of distrust of Su Li?
Chu Huai'an looked down and avoided answering, and lowered his eyes to look at Yue Yan's hand: "How did you help her massage just now?" β
"What?"
"Teach me."
ββ¦β¦β
The military camp is a very familiar place for Su Li, and after arriving here, Su Li is very relaxed, and the sound of military training outside gives her a strange sense of security.
So after Chu Huai'an and Yue Yan left, it didn't take long for Su Li to fall asleep.
When she woke up again, her vision was gray, the sky seemed to be dark, she supported her body up, the bed board under her made a slight squeak sound, and after a while, the top of her head was dark, Chu Huai'an walked over: "Awake?" β
"Hmm." Su Li sat on the bed, she hadn't slept for so long for a long time, and her brain was a little dazed.
Chu Huai'an didn't urge her, and stood silently beside her, and after a while, Su Li finally came to her senses and yawned without any image: "Is it dark?" Why don't you call me? β
Her tone was naturally intimate, Chu Huaian twisted the handkerchief and handed it to her to wipe her face: "It's nothing, why don't you let you sleep." β
ββ¦β¦β
Although he had a point, Su Li still felt that something was wrong.
Wiping her face, Su Li naturally handed him back the handkerchief, completely unaware of how intimate such an interaction was.
"Is there anything I need to do after I return to Beijing?"
Su Li asked and got out of bed with her shoes on, Chu Huaian wrung out the handkerchief and replied with a serious face: "No." β
ββ¦β¦ Then I only need to eat, sleep, sleep and eat after I return to Beijing? β
Su Li raised her eyebrows, and the word dissatisfaction was written on her face, did this person want to raise her as a pig?
Sensing her unhappiness, Chu Huaian thought about it seriously: "There is one thing. β
"What?"
"Cave Room!"
ββ¦β¦β
Su Li was speechless, and finally clearly realized that she was no longer Chu Huai'an's opponent at all.
With a hot face, Su Li turned her head not to look at Chu Huai'an, and was about to go for a walk outside the tent, but after bypassing the screen, she suddenly froze.
There were seven or eight generals standing outside the screen, looking at the armor these people were wearing, the positions should be captains and adjutant generals, they stood straight, and judging by the situation, they should have come here to discuss important matters with Chu Huai'an, because Su Li woke up and was forced to interrupt, standing here and listening to the conversation they had just now!
Su Li wants to dig a hole and bury herself in it!
"You ...... Go on, I won't bother you guys! β
Su Li smiled awkwardly, quickly retreated behind the screen, and glanced at Chu Huai'an viciously, Chu Huai'an was just about to speak, Su Li rushed over and covered his lips: "Don't speak!" Get out and deliberate! β
She deliberately made her expression fierce, but she didn't know that most of her body was almost attached to him, and this appearance fell in his eyes, and it was vivid and bright to the extreme.
"Okay."
Chu Huai'an nodded obediently in agreement, Su Li let go in disbelief, saw that he didn't talk nonsense, pushed him out, and then threw himself on the bed and wrapped himself in the quilt.
Ahhhh
As soon as he was pushed out of the screen, the tenderness in Chu Huai'an's eyes had not yet subsided, and he was clearly seen by the generals, and he couldn't help but be secretly shocked, the usually cold and cold Marquis had such a tender time?
In just a moment, Chu Huai'an collected his emotions and swept over everyone with cold eyes: "Where did you just go?" β
Everyone hurriedly retracted their gaze, covered their thoughts and continued: "General, you shot down the banner on the tower of the Hu Ren City, it is already clear that you want to declare war, and the last general thinks that you should take advantage of the Hu people's lack of reaction, take advantage of the situation to pursue, and take them by surprise!" β
"The last general also thinks that it should be like this, the last general is willing to take the lead and lead the troops to go, with General Lu sitting behind, we don't have to worry about it at all, and it has only been a year since the war of the undead, and the Hu people must not have imagined that we have been training at the border pass, and we have already hoarded enough soldiers and horses to level the Hu land!"
"The last general thinks that he can attack Hudi, and he can use the tactics discussed before......"
Everyone discussed it enthusiastically, and after Su Li finished being embarrassed, she also listened to it, only then did she know that Chu Huai'an and Lu Ji had already stationed troops at the border pass, waiting to fight to the death with the Hu people.
Judging from everyone's proposals, they all have some knowledge of the art of war, and they are experts in marching and fighting, and these people have also been promoted in more than a year?
Su Li was secretly surprised, Chu Huai'an listened to everyone's proposal first, and finally combined their ideas to make a comprehensive cloth, and several people led troops separately and attacked into Hudi from several ways.
Chu Huai'an led the troops in the rear, and could dispatch reinforcements at any time, while Lu Ji served as the backbone of the rear, receiving prisoners of war and controlling the final overall situation.
This arrangement is offensive and defensive, calm and moderate, and Chu Huai'an's previous temperament is really completely different, the generals have no opinion on such an arrangement, they all agreed, and everyone was about to leave after the discussion, but was stopped by Chu Huai'an.
"Wait a minute."
"What else does the general command?"
"If the Hu people are defeated and do not surrender, they will rip off their kneecaps!"
Chu Huai'an's cold voice smashed into Su Li's ears, and there was silence outside the screen for a moment, as if he didn't expect him to make such a request, but after a while, everyone didn't ask anything, and agreed in unison: "Yes!" β
After speaking, everyone left, and Su Li walked out from behind the screen: "Why did you rip out their kneecaps?" β
Su Li asked, Chu Huai'an pursed his lips, and the cold air on his face had not yet dissipated.
He remembered that he was at the inn before, and Su Li said that he had become so fierce now, so did he scare her again?
Chu Huai'an frowned slightly, a little awkward in his heart, seeing Su Li staring at him, he hesitated for a while and whispered to change the topic: "Hungry or not, I'll let someone bring food in." β
After speaking, he got up and walked out, his steps were a little hurried, the tips of his ears were slightly red, and Su Li hugged him from behind.
"Chu Huai'an, is it for me?"
Is it because I have a disease on my leg, so I want to rip off the kneecaps of those people in order to relieve my hatred?
Su Li didn't hold it very tightly, he could break free with a slight struggle, but he didn't move, he froze there like a sculpture, his heart beat faster, like a drum, and it shook people's eardrums.
After a long time, he spoke in a hoarse voice: "I won't let you hurt in vain." β
All the suffering she had suffered, now he had to pay it back for her!
Hearing the meaning of his words, Su Li's eyes were hot, and her heart was so soft that she couldn't speak.
"Chu Huai'an, have you missed me for a year and a half?"
I thought about it, I was going crazy thinking about it.
He said it in his heart, but when it came to his lips, it became: "I don't want to." β
"But I miss you so much."
Su Li said, her chest filled with warm touch.
After the reunion, his personality changed a lot, in fact, it made her have a strange sense of distance, she was a little at a loss, she didn't know how to get along with him, how to talk to him.
I don't know if he is still the same person he used to be, and I don't know if he will like him now.
But as soon as she heard what he said, she suddenly felt that those distances were just illusions, and he had never been indifferent to her and had not changed.
He had only made himself strong enough to keep her under his wings.
Chu Huai'an's heart beat faster and faster, and he grabbed Su Li's hand and asked in a hoarse voice, "Then what do you think of me?" β
