Section VII

Wu Ming stood up, turned his back, and said slowly after a while: "That's right, he is a handful of dust." It's Xuanyuan's ashes, do you understand? ”

So that's what happened?

Esther's eyes lit up, and most of the gloom in her heart dissipated violently. Since the alliance between the Southern Han Dynasty and Persia, she could clearly feel that the hostility in Wu Ming's body was slowly fading, or even disappearing without a trace. She was naturally full of joy and was preparing to work hard to consolidate the relationship between the two. But she was shocked to find that although Wu Ming was very good to her, he only maintained a polite respect, and if she left, even if she tried her best, it would still be the same. As a result, this proud princess was so depressed that she even doubted her charm for a while.

"I see...... I see......" Esther muttered. Wu Ming's words, although they were still a disguised refusal, she selectively ignored them. As long as you find the right reason, are you afraid that this wood will not comply? Her big blue eyes turned, and suddenly she let out an "ouch" and fell softly on the couch.

Wu Ming's heart was shocked, and he saw Esther rubbing his chest. The thin layer of Luo shirt couldn't cover her seductive figure at all, and after she rubbed it like this, it was even more turbulent. Wu Ming secretly said guilty, and hurriedly lowered his head and looked at him without squinting: "Princess, what's wrong?" ”

"What's wrong? Of course, it hurts badly in the chest, and it's not you? There was something else to say about this, Wu Ming only felt that he couldn't stand it, and he wanted to leave and think of another way. Esther gave him a sudden white look, and said softly: "Lord Wu, I have a terrible pain in my chest now, can you feed me?" ”

As she spoke, her eyes were fixed on the medicine bowl in front of the couch. It was made by Xiaobi for Esther just now, and Esther was bitter, and she drank it for a long time but was almost untouched. Seeing her contrived appearance, Wu Ming wanted to refuse, but as soon as he saw the medicine bowl, he swallowed it back in his mouth. The bowl was turquoise, and there was a hint of heat wafting from it, and a foul smell of medicine was emanating from the thick black juice. He couldn't help but soften in his heart, Esther was injured because of himself, that was an indisputable fact, even if he took care of her, he should do his duty. What's more, she has made it clear just now that she is not stupid. Looking at the way she looks, she must have figured it out.

Esther figured it out, but her figure out was very different from Wu Ming's expectations.

Wu Ming said: "Okay, princess, lie down and let me come." As he spoke, he crouched down, then picked up the bowl, stirred it with a spoon, and carefully scooped a spoonful of the potion to Esther's bright little mouth. Esther snorted, frowned, and said, "What are you doing so far away, get closer, people can't drink." ”

Wu Ming laughed and laughed, this little girl laughed and scolded, turning her face faster than turning a book, every time she talked to her, there was always a feeling of being unable to cope. But when she thinks about it, Esther can't help but do it, after all, she is a patient. I had to lean forward a little, see the other party open his mouth slightly, and slowly sucked a small spoon of thick black into Yin Hong's small mouth. After the potion was in her mouth, Esther stretched out her bright little red tongue and gently curled it around her tempting lips before she slammed her chin and said, "What did Lord Wu want me to help with just now?" Let's talk about it. ”

Looking at her appearance, she was drinking medicine, as if she was tasting some kind of elixir and jade dew. Wu Ming also looked a little distracted. Hearing her say this, she was stunned, put down the spoon and said happily: "The princess is willing to help me?" ”

Esther sneered, "Don't stop talking. Wu Ming hurriedly scooped up a small spoonful of medicinal juice and sent it to her mouth, but said in his mouth: "Actually, it's not a big deal, I just want to ask the princess for a favor and help me find some camels." ”

Esther sucked in the "zizi" sound, but looked at Wu Ming with a pair of big eyes, and when she finished drinking, she said softly: "Oh, is it to go to the camel pass?" ”

"Yes." There was nothing to hide about this, and Wu Ming immediately admitted it.

"Don't stop!" Esther pointed to the potion and said fiercely. Wu Ming is angry and funny, he is usually persuaded to take medicine by feeding medicine, how do he feel like he has lost it now. Thinking so, I had to do as I was told, and scooped a spoonful of the medicinal juice to her mouth.

"Scoop more, less. Do you want to torture me so much? ”

Wu Ming sighed in his heart, since you are afraid of bitterness, then you don't drink it up a few times, what is the ink. But now there is a request for others, people for swords, and I for fish and meat, and he has to do it.

Esther was satisfied, took a sip, and then slammed her mouth and said: "Camels, we have a lot of Persian caravans, and it was easy to say, but now that the war is raging, where can we still find it?" ”

What she said was also true, and Wu Ming's heart darkened. Knowing that Esther's words changed: "However, the others must not have it, Lord Wu?" This princess will be reluctant to help you ask someone to go to the holy land Yundu to ask. ”

The five central and western provinces are nominally five provinces, but in fact there are only four provinces. Among them, Yundu is the holy place of the temple, which is full of deserts, and there is an oasis in the center. Although this particular province nominally belongs to the five central and western provinces, Persia has the greatest influence on this region due to the large number of monks. Esther is a temple saintess, and it is not difficult to get some camels here.

Wu Ming was overjoyed, put down the bowl, and hurriedly said: "Thank you princess, thank you princess." "Most of the whole province of Nanping is desert, desert is the majority, and horses are a burden in this kind of place. With the camel, it is possible to reach the camel pass faster, rescue He Xiaotian, and at the same time see He Yi, his gratitude this time is extremely sincere, and there is no pretentiousness.

Looking at Wu Ming's radiant face, Esther's heart was also happy. But immediately scolded himself: "Cheap bones." "This guy is so to himself, and he is still shy to help him, isn't it a cheap bone? She sighed secretly in her heart, but said: "Lord Wu, don't be too happy, it's wartime, and camels have become a scarce commodity, and I'm afraid I won't be able to make up much for a while."

Wu Ming was stunned and said, "How much can you make?" ”

"It depends on when you want it?"

Wu Ming came back to his senses from the ecstasy, thought for a while, and said, "From here to Tingya, if you gallop, you can get there in half a day." Tingya has just been returned, and I will definitely go to see it and appease the local military and civilian situation. In this way, in three days, I wonder how many camels the princess can muster? ”

"Hmm!" Esther thought about the problem, and remembered what kind of injury she pretended, and unconsciously sat up from the couch. She gently stroked the first few strands of blond hair on her forehead, and replied, "No more than five hundred, and if it is more, I can't help it." ”

"Five hundred?" Wu Ming couldn't help but feel a little depressed, with this amount of troops, to relieve the siege of Camel Pass, it would be like sending him to death. But it's better than nothing, and you can only take one step at a time. He nodded: "So, trouble the princess." ”

When I looked up, I saw Esther sitting up, like a white lotus with golden stamens, blooming on the couch. The injuries on his body also seemed to be gone, and he couldn't help but be stunned: "Princess, are you okay?" The latter let out an "ah" sound, and quickly lay down, opened his mouth, and shouted, "Ouch......"

Wu Ming was made angry by her like this, and it was not that he was not angry. After thinking about it, he tried his best to say in a calm tone: "Princess, I hope you keep your promise, Wu please." After speaking, he bowed solemnly and turned around to leave.

"Stop!"

As soon as he turned around, Esther screamed again. In desperation, Wu Ming had to turn around and look at the other party with calm eyes as much as possible, and made up his mind that no matter how much this Nizi pretended, he would ignore her.

Esther's big blue eyes were wet again, and she pointed to the thick black medicinal juice and said, "Lord Wu, it's not that I'm not injured, but the injury is not as severe as you imagined, otherwise this medicinal juice is so bitter, who wants to drink it." As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, and she seemed to be about to cry again.

Wu Ming was so annoyed by her that he had no temper, so he had to say in a sullen voice: "In this way, what is the princess going to do?" ”

Esther stroked her breasts, made a painful look, and said timidly: "You are leaving tomorrow, and I will make a request for you to feed me this bowl of medicine." Wu Ming was about to refuse, but when he saw the other party's hopeful eyes, he thought that the other party was hurt for himself after all, and his heart softened. When the words came to his lips, they turned into two words: "Okay." ”

……

Esther closed her eyes, letting a few strands of blonde hair hang lazily down from her forehead, making her forehead look strangely smooth. With the entrance of the potion, her cherry-like mouth moved, her long eyelashes trembled, but her snowy cheeks gradually flushed with a touch of red, as if she was enjoying it very much. Wu Ming looked at it, but his heart was mixed, and he said that it was the most difficult to accept the grace of the beauty, and it seemed that he would have to avoid her in the future, otherwise he would be too sorry for Xiaoqing.

Seeing that the bowl of medicinal juice was almost finished, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "I saw the arrow pass through your chest at that time, why are you safe?" ”

Seeing that Esther opened her eyes, there was already a little gloom in her big eyes, and he quickly changed his words: "It's a minor injury." Esther suddenly had a mischievous smile in her eyes and asked, "Are you sure you want to know?" ”

Seeing her eyes, Wu Ming had a bad premonition. But I still can't help but make an involuntary "um" sound.

Esther said, "The arrow looked like it was going through my chest, but it was just grazing my ribs." People, people are dressed loosely, and the arrow passes through the clothes, and from the side, it looks like it is no different from the middle chest. ”

So that's the case, Wu Ming was stunned. Then he said in a stunned voice: "In that case, why didn't you help me at that time?" "No wonder he was so angry, Chu Tianxing was not only a master of the late eighth stage, but also a master who was good at assassination. Although Wu Ming and him have only fought for a few rounds, it is thrilling, and now that I think about it, I still have lingering palpitations. Esther was also a seventh-dan master, and if he hadn't pretended to be dead at that time, he wouldn't have had to fight so hard, and even be in danger.

Esther's face became redder and redder, like a big red cloth, and she said softly, "But, but someone's bandeau was cut open by that guy......

Wu Ming's hand holding the medicine suddenly froze in mid-air: "......"

After a long time, he stood up, saluted Esther, and said respectfully: "Princess, Wu is ignorant and offended, and there is nothing wrong, so I will retire first." ”

Although Esther is usually generous, she is still in the boudoir after all. As soon as the words came out, she regretted a little, she lowered her head, and didn't dare to look at Wu Ming, her face was as red as fire, and she just said a low "um".

Wu Ming opened the curtain of the tent, and then fled as if flying.

Hearing his footsteps fade away, Esther raised her head and said quietly, "Wood." ”

As if she remembered something again, she covered her mouth and smiled: "Silly." ”

She gradually leaned back on the couch, slowly closed her eyes, but tears gradually welled up, and murmured, "Wrongdoer." ”
