Chapter 40: The Zifeiyi (3)
Lai Xing'er's demeanor changed Na Yu saw it in his eyes, his heart moved, and he couldn't help blushing, and took a felt quilt to Lai Xing'er in a daze, and said: "If you don't want to say it, don't say it, as long as you don't think about it anymore." In the future, we can only sleep in the mountains and forests in Tibet. Go to bed early and be careful of catching a cold. β
After that, she walked to a tung tree more than a dozen steps away from Laixing'er, leaned against the trunk, sat with her clothes closed, and fell asleep after a while.
Lai Xing'er could no longer sleep, he was wrapped in a felt quilt and leaned on the leeward side of the boulder, and the events of the day flooded into his mind, making him think about it, and the more he thought about it, the clearer his mind became, and his sleepiness disappeared.
After a night like this, when the two returned to the road the next day, they had an extra concern for each other, and they were no longer as natural and innocent as before.
After a little further north, the mountain road becomes more and more difficult. Due to the constant smoke along the way, for the sake of safety, the two of them still did not dare to take the main road, so they had to overcome thorns and thorns to walk through the mountains. In this way, the two climbed over more than a dozen mountain beams and crossed a desert without people, and when the rolling Qilian Mountains appeared in the field of vision of the two people, Lai Xing'er pinched his fingers and roughly calculated, and the two escaped from Luoqi City, and it has been nearly a month now.
"In front of us is the Xingsuchuan Pass, beyond the pass, we will walk out of the Tibetan border, no longer have to be so sneaky, unsightly." Nayu excitedly rushed to Xing'er and said.
Lai Xing'er didn't see a trace of a smile on his face, and replied: "After this pass, are we going to break up?" β
Na Yu deliberately avoided mentioning this topic, and did not say anything, but touched his waist with a gesture, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that I left in a hurry and didn't bring more silver with me." Otherwise. After passing the pass, the first thing I had to do was buy a horse to ride, and along the way, neither foot was mine. β
Lai Xing'er had to smile bitterly and follow her and said, "Alas, the few pieces of gold cakes I have worked so hard to save have also been thrown to Nasimo in vain. Otherwise, at least you can change a few more meals of meat. β
Na Yu turned around and smiled at Xing'er, revealing two rows of neat and white teeth: "If you have the opportunity to come to Jiangling in the future, I will invite you to eat mandarin fish every day." With that, he walked briskly in the direction of the pass.
The two rarely talked to each other for days. Now that they are about to separate, they don't know what year or month they will meet again, Lai Xing'er is a little reluctant, and ******** wants to say a few more words to Nayu. He quickened his pace and followed closely behind Nayu. As he walked, he gasped and said, "What is delicious about fish, why don't you go back to Chang'an with me, what is there to go to Jiangling." β
Na Yu stopped abruptly and shouted at him with raised eyebrows: "Why are you so verbose! In vain, Mama Zhong praised you for your kindness and ability to be anxious about people's difficulties, in my opinion, there is clearly a bad belly hidden, deliberately arousing the sadness of others. β
Once Lai Xing'er lets go of the burden in his heart. The usual ghost wit naturally came up, and he didn't care about Nayu's anger. Still speechless, he said: "It's strange to say, you keep saying that the concubine treats you kindly, and she and the eldest princess of Changning are even more like sisters, and the two of them are dead, you don't think about going back to Chang'an to mourn and keep filial piety, but go to Jiangling ********." Aren't you in a hurry to see your husband so that you can get an idea? β
"Slap", before the words fell, Lai Xing'er only felt a hot pain in his right cheek, and he had been slapped by Nayu.
"You're going to talk nonsense again. Be careful I tear your mouth apart. Nayu still couldn't understand his hatred after the fight, and the bully warned domineeringly.
"The gentleman doesn't move his mouth, where did I say it wrong, provoking you to act rudely for no reason? The strange sage has long said: Only women and villains are difficult to raise. After Lai Xing'er said this, he spread his legs and ran forward.
"If you have the ability, don't run, today I want you to try the means of a woman to teach people." Nayu was embarrassed and annoyed by his amusement, and chased after him.
The two of them ran out for about four or five miles one after the other, and seeing that Nayu was about to catch up, Lai Xing'er suddenly turned around and stopped, and shouted at Nayu: "Stop, be careful." β
Na Yu only said that he was playing tricks, where was he willing to stop easily, stepped forward and twisted one of his arms, and punched to hit him.
Lai Xing'er screamed in pain: "The pass has arrived." Watch out for ambushes here! β
After his reminder, Na Yu looked up and found that before he knew it, the two of them were only a hundred steps away from the Xingsugawa Pass. She let go of Lai Xing'er, jumped up a dirt slope, and watched the movement around the pass: but saw that the only official road in the pass was empty, and there was not a single person riding in sight.
"It's strange, there are constant beacons all the way, obviously passing on military information, why is the border between the two countries so calm?" Nayu muttered to herself.
"Why don't I go explore the way first?" Lai Xing'er also jumped up the dirt slope, staring at the official road at the pass and asking Nayu.
"You have it," Nayu stopped him angrily, "It's going to be out of danger so easily, I don't want His Royal Highness to make another mistake now." β
She looked Lai Xing'er up and down, and then looked at the burden that he threw on the flat ground not far away, and instantly had an idea, pulled Lai Xing'er down the dirt slope, picked up the burden and untied it, took out the felt inside, and asked Lai Xing'er: "Let's run forward with the felt quilt, looking at it from thirty or fifty steps, do we look like a Tibetan warrior?" As he asked, he shook off the felt and covered his head, and put on a posture of running forward to show Lai Xing'er.
"The outfit is quite similar, but the body is a little thinner." Lai Xing'er said critically.
"I don't care about this much, it's less than two miles away, and it's okay to rush over." Nayu handed a felt quilt to Xing'er's hand and ordered, "You follow me, remember, don't stop halfway." β
Lai Xing'er took the felt quilt, and did not rush to cover his head, but asked: "Why are you rushing through the pass with the blanket, in case there are court officials and soldiers who set up an ambush and shoot us to death with arrows, wouldn't it be wronged?" β
"Fool, just you and me, even if the officers and soldiers really have ambush soldiers here, they will want to capture them alive, how can they easily shoot them with arrows?" Na Yu explained disdainfully, "Covered with a felt quilt, the main ones to guard against are the Tubo people, do you understand?" β
Lai Xing'er heard that she was reasonable, stopped talking, draped the felt quilt over her shoulders, tied it firmly with a cowhide rope, and waited for Nayu to give the command to rush forward.
"Let's do it." Nayu let out a short, powerful shout and rushed towards the pass first, and Lai Xing'er followed closely behind her and ran out as well.
To the surprise of the two of them, until they crossed the pass, they ran more than a mile away, and on the hills on both sides of the road, they only heard the rustling sound of the leaves of the trees blown by the wind, and there was a shadow of an ambush there.
The hearts of the two of them were wide, Lai Xing'er slowed down, and shouted at Nayu with a smile: "The female general's plan is going to fail." I'm going to have cramps with this run, so stop and rest. β
Na Yu was about to turn around to answer, but suddenly felt that his feet were empty, and before he could react, the whole person fell into the trap. Seeing this, Lai Xing'er stepped forward and tried to save Nayu, but his feet were empty, and he also fell. (To be continued.) )
