Chapter 188: Horse Thieves (3)
Xu Dai naturally didn't know what happened after the coma, but Xu Dai finally woke up because of the bump.
Xu Dai opened his eyes and saw that he was placed on the back of a horse. Looking around, there are many people riding on horseback, and the horse that humped Xu Dai was the Dayuan horse. While Wei Qi is still unconscious, Fluttershy is held by a woman.
Xu Dai was shocked and quickly shouted, "Fluttershy!"
Fluttershy hears Xodai's voice and looks over to see that Xyo is really awake, and a smile appears on her face. The woman who was holding Fluttershy and riding the Dayuan horse also looked over, and when she saw that Xu Dai was really awake, she rode over.
"You've been asleep all night, and you've been asleep all day, according to this little girl. The woman was next to Xu Dai, her eyes looked at Xu Dai, "When we saw you, it was dusk, and there happened to be a lot of wolves who wanted to attack you, but fortunately we arrived in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." ”
Xu Dai understood that it was this group of people who took him away, so he thanked the woman and said, "It turned out that it was the girl who saved the lives of the three of us, thank you." ”
As he spoke, Xu Dai glanced at Fluttershy, and when Fluttershy nodded at him, he confirmed the woman's words. Xu Dai believes that Fluttershy will not tell lies.
At the same time, Xu Dai also felt lucky in his heart, if this woman led people to find that she was late, maybe she would only see a group of corpses being eaten by wolves.
There have always been wolves in the desert, but these species often come out at dusk and night to feed, and it was Xu Dai's bad luck that they were almost devoured by the wolves this time.
The woman holds Fluttershy back to Xu Dai, and as for the Dayuan horse, she still rides it.
Fluttershy hugged her as he took it, and then asked the woman, "Who are you?"
The woman's brows furrowed slightly, obviously Xu Dai's question made her not very fond of answering. However, the woman still said: "We are people from Wenchang City. My surname is Bai, what about you?"
Xu Dai said: "White girl, call me Xu Dai." ”
The woman surnamed Bai nodded slightly, and then a man walked over.
"Miss Bai Zhen, we've been on the road for so long, it's time to take a break. It's getting dark now, and after all, some accidents will inevitably happen when traveling at night. The man said to Bai Zhen respectfully.
Bai Zhen thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Let's stop and rest, and we will set off again tomorrow morning." ”
Only then did Xu Dai know that the woman's name was Bai Zhen, a very nice name, just like the woman's appearance, very beautiful.
And they all made a bonfire, and they all sat around it. Wei Qi finally woke up, and because the three of Xu Dai were not social, they gave birth to another bonfire and sat on the side.
Bai Zhen carried the corpse of a wolf and placed it next to Xu Dai.
"This is the wolf that wanted to eat you at dusk that day." There's quite a bit left, and I'll give you one. ”
Xu Dai smiled and took the wolf corpse, took out a lot of dried meat from Dayuan Ma's bag and gave it to Bai Zhen, and said, "This is the food that the three of us brought out from home, and I will also give you some." ”
Bai Zhen was stunned, and then took the jerky sent by Xu Dai. Bai Zhen returned to the edge of the campfire and divided the dried meat sent by Xu Dai.
Waiting for Bai Zhen to leave, Xu Dai spoke to Wei Qi: "How do you feel?"
Wei Qi felt it slightly, and then said, "It's not bad, there is no discomfort." ”
"Brother Xu, have you noticed? This white girl doesn't seem to be in a high mood, she should have something unspeakable. ”
Xu Dai subconsciously glanced at Bai Zhen's quiet back, nodded and said, "Naturally, I found out." ”
"But it has nothing to do with us, they saved our lives, and we will repay them in other ways. ”
Wei Qi nodded slightly, Xu Dai's words were naturally correct.
Xu Dai skillfully peeled off the fur of the wolf corpse with a dagger, and then threaded the wolf meat on the branches, and then set it up on the bonfire to bake.
Xu Dai could vaguely hear what Bai Zhen and the people there were discussing, and Xu Dai listened quietly, and then heard some small words. Organizing these words, Xu Dai knew that this group of people were talking about the three of them, and probably said that Xu Dai and the three of them were white-eyed wolves, and they didn't give any expensive gifts to express their gratitude for saving the three of them.
"The Sword Comes"
In this regard, Xu Dai could only laugh at it. The words of this group of people were not wrong, they were originally strangers, and the other party saved their lives, and it was supposed to repay them.
However, Wei Qi frowned, his temperament was much more straightforward, and when he heard this, he wanted to go over and theorize. Xu Dai just handed over a piece of roasted wolf meat when Wei Qi wanted to get up and go over, Wei Qi understood what Xu Dai meant, took the wolf meat and sat back in his place.
"Brother Xu, is the direction we are going in the direction of Saizhou?" Wei Qi suddenly remembered that they were following Bai Zhen's team, for fear of going in the opposite direction.
Xu Dai shook his head and smiled: "It's not wrong, it's just that the road will take a little detour, and it's okay." ”
"After all, there is nothing urgent to go to Cyssai, and there is nothing to walk more in the West Side. ”
Wei Qi nodded when he saw Xu Dai say this.
Fluttershy says, "Master, Brother Wei, I think Sister Bai is a good person. ”
Xu Dai and Wei Qi smiled: "They are naturally good people, otherwise they would not have saved us." ”
Fluttershy continues, "When you were unconscious, I heard Sister White say something. It seems that Sister Bai is going to get married, so she hasn't been very happy. ”
Xu Dai listened quietly
Fluttershy nodded. I see.
Many families with poor strength will take this approach, choosing to marry a stronger family or a family with less than the strength of this family. In this way, the position of the family is strengthened and strengthened.
Obviously, Bai Zhen is a victim of her family.
In this regard, Xu Dai didn't know what to say. This kind of marriage decision is naturally very unfair to women, after all, a woman of Bai Zhen's age naturally hopes that one day her crush will be able to marry her. However, since Bai Zhen was born in a family, it is also destined to face such an ending emotionally.
It was already dark, and it got dark late in the West End, probably at the end of the day. So after dark, many people close their eyes and rest after eating.
Xu Dai and Wei Qi naturally didn't want to sleep, they just woke up from a coma, how could they want to rest?
Seeing that Fluttershy is resting with her eyes closed, Xu Dai becomes vigilant. In Bai Zhen's team, there are also a few people who are not resting on duty at night.
Xu Dai thought that Bai Zhen would rest, but he didn't expect Bai Zhen to rest either.
Seeing that Bai Zhen was looking at the bonfire in front of him with his hand on his cheek, Xu Dai glanced at Wei Qi and motioned for Wei Qi to go up and talk to Bai Zhen. However, Wei Qi obviously didn't want to, so Xu Dai walked over.
"Bai girl, aren't you ready to rest at such a late hour?" Xu Dai sat opposite Bai Zhen, smiled and picked up a dry tumbleweed from the side and threw it into the bonfire.
Bai Zhen glanced at Xu Dai, and then looked at the bonfire. She shook her head and said, "I can't sleep, don't you have no rest?"
Xu Dai smiled: "My companion and I just woke up from our slumber, how can we sleep?"
Bai Zhen nodded and didn't speak, Xu Dai could see that Bai Zhen was not very interested in speaking. However, this did not prevent Xu Dai from speaking, and Xu Dai said, "White girl, Fluttershy told me that you are going to a certain city-state. Are you here to get married?"
Bai Zhen said: "That's right. ”
"My father is a businessman, and although he has a lot of money, his family does not have much strength. So my father wanted to improve the strength of our family, and there was no way, so I became his tool to improve the strength of the family. ”
Bai Zhen didn't hide Xu Dai's thoughts, she replied.
Xu Dai couldn't help but think of Boss Sun, who was also a businessman, but he was much better than Bai Zhen's father. At least although Boss Sun is a businessman, he is not as profit-oriented as ordinary businessmen.
Bai Zhen was born in the Shangjia family, and I don't know if it was her luck or misfortune. said that it was Bai Zhen's misfortune, but Bai Zhen had no worries about food and clothing since he was a child, and if it was Bai Zhen's luck, Bai Zhen became a tool used by his father to improve the strength of the family, and Bai Zhen could not escape this fact for the rest of his life.
