Chapter 150: Neuropathy is a pretty apt word
When I woke up again, the campfire was still burning hotly and squeaking, and it was already dark outside.
Yu Guang saw that the figure that should have been there was gone, and he suddenly panicked, and looked down to see that her robe had been covered by him for some time.
After sweeping around the cave, there was no one in the cave, and she shouted: "Gu Tingrui." ”
There was no response.
Jiang Li stood up and walked to the door, a cold wind blew, she wrapped her body, and when she looked up, she saw Gu Tingrui walking towards her, the mask was even more dazzling under the moonlight, he was holding a rabbit in his hand and did not react, shaking his legs and bleeding, and holding a bleeding short knife in his other hand.
"Why are you standing at the door, it's cold outside, let's go in." He walked around her and squeezed through the gap.
Eri turned back to the campfire and watched him handle the rabbits.
"Why are you helping me?"
"You've helped me too."
"But you saved me, we evened out, and this time you helped me again, I owe you."
Gu Tingrui's hand handling the rabbit paused, and turned his head to look at her: "Whatever you want, I took advantage of it anyway." ”
Jiang Li's face turned red, and she was annoyed and angry: "Gu Tingrui, I said it seriously." ”
"Jiang Li, are we friends?" Gu Tingrui handled the rabbit, put it on the fire with a branch, and turned his head to say this to her.
Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, looked at him straightly, nodded silently, and said, "It must be, you said that you are the brother of the god stick, and we must be friends." ”
"Since it's a friend, then don't talk about whether you owe it or not, if I have something to ask you for help in the future, you will definitely go out of your way to help me, right?" Gu Tingrui looked at her deeply, his cold and hard jaw softened a little, and he was waiting for her to return.
Jiang Li smiled, her starry eyes shining: "Well, definitely." ”
Gu Tingrui was attracted by her smile, and it was the first time to see her smile so healing.
"Pear, let me ask you a question."
"Hmm."
Jiang Li was immersed in the firelight, not caring that there was anything wrong with his title, and nodded lightly in response.
"You know that I'm from Xichu, why don't you expose me?"
"I heard you say that Gu Zerui is your younger brother, I didn't know that you were from Western Chu, and I only found out when I was in the East China Sea, I was too lazy to take care of the affairs of the imperial court, I just wanted to make my money, and nothing else had anything to do with me."
Gu Tingrui was silent for a moment, looked at the rabbit roasted in his hand and said, "I didn't help you find Xichu to attack that time, aren't you angry?" ”
Jiang Li looked at him, he also looked at her, suddenly looked at each other, both of them opened their eyes, she remembered what happened that time, and lowered her head: "I'm angry, but I think again, why am I angry, I have nothing to do with you, even just a stranger, why do you help me." ”
"No, it's not." Gu Tingrui interrupted her, he was worried that if she continued to speak, he would definitely regret it, "I'm not from Western Chu anymore, and I didn't call the soldiers of Western Chu that time in Donghai, I guess it should be my brother who did it." ”
Jiang Li raised her head suddenly, with surprise written on her face: "Gu Zerui? ”
"Hmm."
"Then why aren't you from Xichu, what does this mean?"
Gu Tingrui turned his head away, and returned to his indifferent appearance: "I was kicked out of Xichu, Zerui stole something from them, I carried the black cauldron for him, and he disappeared as if he had evaporated from the world." ”
Evaporation from the world?
This word was used too correctly, and she couldn't find Gu Zerui at the beginning, and she felt that he was the same as evaporating from the world.
"What did he steal?" Jiang Li asked.
"Reincarnation." Gu Tingrui said.
"Reincarnation? Sounds sinister. Jiang Li rubbed his chin and muttered.
Gu Tingrui turned the rabbit over and continued: "I don't like metaphysics, I don't know about this, Zerui likes it very much, he always likes to study those things, sometimes the whole person is like a different person." ”
"I'll just say, sometimes it's like a nervous wreck." Jiang Li thought about that person in her mind and complained ruthlessly.
"Neuropathy is a fitting term." Gu Tingrui quite agreed with Jiang Li's evaluation of his younger brother, if he knew that this was a bad word, he probably wouldn't agree with it.
Jiang Li covered her mouth and snickered, and didn't tell him that it was a curse word.
After a while, the rabbit meat was ready, and the two of them divided the rabbit meat directly, and there was a wolf howl outside.
Jiang Li: "I don't know what happened to them." ”
Gu Tingrui threw some firewood into the bonfire and said, "Don't worry, Shen Yunchen's army is even more powerful than the prince's Yan Yunqi, their survivability is amazing, you don't have to worry about them, you should worry about yourself." ”
"What's wrong with me, my survivability is also strong." Jiang Li retorted unconvinced.
Gu Tingrui smiled: "Yes, yes, you are amazing, one dares to provoke the second elder of the Dark Snake, and the other dares to swallow the internal force to turn the pill, may I ask Miss Jiang Li, what else can't you do?" ”
Jiang Li rolled her eyes: "You don't come." Hurt me. ”
Gu Tingrui doesn't bother her, women are trouble.
"Let's sleep first, we have to rush every day, according to Shen Yunchen's distance, if we don't speed up, we will definitely not be able to catch up."
Speaking of Shen Yunchen, Jiang Li began to be entangled: "He is in such a hurry to go to the ancient tomb, there will definitely be no stop on the way, I don't know if my father will follow." ”
Gu Tingrui packed up the firewood on the ground, found a comfortable place to lie down, and heard her murmuring: "Don't worry, your father is his father-in-law, if it were me, I would definitely protect my father-in-law, because he knows that it is your father, and the last thing he wants is for you to be sad." ”
"I don't know."
Jiang Li curled up and wrapped himself in a fur, this white robe was given by him, there is a custom in Tianyuan, a man can only be given a robe by his beloved woman, representing the protection of a lifetime, and the woman also hopes to receive the beloved man's robe the most, when he came to send the fur, he was wearing this fur, and he put it on her with his own hands.
She hadn't forgiven him yet.
Thinking back now, she suddenly felt that there was still a lingering smell of him on it, and she couldn't help but smile sweetly on her face, and gently stroked her fur, as if this was him.
Gu Tingrui opened his eyes, and all he saw was that she was sitting by the campfire with her head down and caressing her fur, and there was a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth that he had never seen before, and he couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips.
"He gave it to me."
Jiang Li turned her head in surprise when she heard the voice, the smile on her face gradually dissipated, and when she saw the eyes in his mask, she was shocked: "I thought you were asleep, you just closed your eyes." ”
"Did he send it?"
He asked again.
"Hmm."
Jiang Li nodded, lowered her head, her cheeks were crimson, fortunately she was sitting by the fire, she shouldn't be able to see it.
She thought silently.
She admits that she misses him a little.
