Chapter 124: There is Providence in the Dark
How did you get to the defloration?
Turning his head to see the undisguised admiration in his master's eyes, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
The master has been so many years, and he has never shown such an expression to any girl, so Miss Shen has a good means! How could the master be interested in her? Could it be that there has been no woman by her side during this time?
Yu Gu silently thought in his heart that it was time to bring over the beautiful maids in the house.
Here, Shen Nianzhen and Rong Chen went out far away, and there was no forbidden army to follow.
Shen Nianzhen looked behind him vigilantly, lowered his voice and said to Rong Chen, "Or, let's escape?" β
"Are you going back to Beijing?" Rong Chen asked rhetorically.
"No, we'll go find my big brother ourselves." Shen Nianzhen frowned and said, "I don't want to see the face of the eldest prince and his subordinates!" They don't really want to find my eldest brother at all, and they have no hope in this life. If we go it alone, there may be a glimmer of possibility. β
"It's fine." Rong Chen nodded when he heard this, took Shen Nianzhen's hand and said: "It's the palace that is not thoughtful, you are indeed a girl who is not suitable to stay here anymore, wherever you want to go, the palace will accompany you." β
When Shen Nianzhen heard this, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
However, the next moment, she suddenly felt the emptiness under her feet, and a big pit trap appeared in this quiet and calm mountain forest as if out of thin air, and it exploded under her feet, and her body fell involuntarily, and in a panic, she held Rong Chen's hand tightly.
"Nian Zhen!" Rong Chen screamed, held her tightly, and the two of them fell towards the trap together,
This feeling is like falling down a cliff in the middle of the mountain, and I was caught off guard.
However, this time, Rong Chen accompanied her.
"Nian Zhen!" Rong Chen shouted, tried hard to grab Shen Nianzhen's arm, took out a dagger with his other hand, and kept stabbing at the wall of the pit, trying to find a foothold to stabilize the falling bodies of the two people.
However, the pit walls were covered with wet dirt and were useless.
Almost instantly, the two men fell into a deep trap hole.
"Nian Zhen! How are you? Rong Chen hugged Shen Nianzhen tightly, and when she fell, she fell on him and was not injured at all.
"I'm fine, lord." Shen Nianzhen got down from Rong Chen's chest, raised his eyes and glanced at the top, and immediately said in surprise: "Such a deep pit, how can the two of us get out?" β
"Nian Zhen ......" Rong Chen called out to her in a low voice, and there seemed to be a hint of pain in his tone.
When Shen Nianzhen heard this, he immediately turned around, glanced at him through the thin light on the roof of the cave, and asked in surprise, "Lord Wang, how are you?" Why can't you stand up......"
She squatted down, reached out, and lifted the hem of Rong Chen's robe, revealing the white undershirt underneath, which was stained with bright red blood.
"Blood? You're hurt? Shen Nianzhen was taken aback.
Rong Chen's face turned slightly pale.
Shen Nianzhen carefully lifted the trouser leg, and saw that Rong Chen's right calf was stuck with a bamboo stick seven or eight inches long, which almost penetrated his entire calf, and the injury was hideous and terrifying.
Shen Nianzhen was almost frightened when he saw this scene.
I regretted it again and again: "It's all my fault!" I dragged you out and ran around! Otherwise the two of us won't fall and you won't get hurt......"
"What are you doing now? Do you have any medicine for injuries? Stop the bleeding for me, right? Rong Chen gritted his teeth and said, "Otherwise, my injuries won't heal, and neither of us will be able to get out......"
"You don't think about it that much now." Shen Nianzhen tore off the clothes on his calves with his hands and feet, first cleaned up the blood stains and dirt on it with a handkerchief and clean cloth, and then slowly reached out to hold the long and thin bamboo stick, took a deep breath, looked at Rong Chen and said, "Lord Wang, it hurts a little, wait a minute, you endure it......"
"Don't be verbose! Such a little injury is nothing to this palace! Rong Chen scoffed, he has caused countless troubles and killed countless people since he was a child, and he has not been injured, but he is still afraid of this little pain?
"Okay, then I'll pull the lot." Shen Nianzhen believed it, nodded, and pulled out the bamboo stick that almost pierced Rong Chen's calf without hesitation.
A sharp pain struck, Rong Chen's eyes went dark, and the whole person almost fainted.
He didn't faint because Shen Nianzhen patted him lightly on the shoulder: "Lord Wang, are you okay?" You're the toughest man I've ever met. β
As he spoke, he had already pressed the acupoints around Rong Chen's calves with his hands and feet to stop the blood from gushing out in large quantities, and then took out some bottles and jars of medicine from his arms, and found the ointment to stop bleeding with the light, and bandaged Rong Chen.
Rong Chen, with the name of 'the strongest man', bit his lip to prevent himself from passing out, only his head and face were covered with sweat, soaking all the robes on his body.
"It's good that you have so many medicines with you, otherwise this palace will be dead today." After the severe pain, Rong Chen gradually relaxed.
"Isn't it uncomfortable?" Shen Nianzhen wiped his hands and said, "In the ointment I gave you, there are pain-relieving medicines, these are all my master's housekeeping skills, he taught them to me, now you finally believe that he is not a god, right?" β
"Yes, he's really good."
Rong Chen nodded when he heard this, exhaled a breath, raised his eyes to look at the small square sky above his head, and then said: "This palace is injured, if no one comes to save it, I am afraid that it will be for a while, and the two of us will not be able to get out, are you afraid?" β
"Don't be afraid." Shen Nianzhen shook his head when he heard this: "If I stay here alone, I will be afraid, isn't this the presence of the prince?" β
"But this palace is injured now, which is equivalent to a waste." When Rong Chen heard this, a bitter smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Who said that?" Shen Nianzhen immediately retorted: "Your injuries will be healed sooner or later, don't be presumptuous, the two of us will think together, we will definitely be able to get out of here, and the living can still suffocate their urine?" Besides, can't the eldest prince look for us? β
They are not far away, presumably the eldest prince will be found soon.
"You're a young lady, and you're talking like that...... So vulgar. Rong Chen couldn't help but smile when he heard this, but it involved the wound, and he immediately coughed lowly.
Shen Nianzhen immediately reached out to beat him on the back, and then raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Highness likes a well-behaved daughter?" β
"I don't like it!" Rong Chen immediately shook his head when he heard this, the kind of daughter with a mask on her face, smiling and sitting as if she had measured it with a ruler, he hated it the most, Shen Nian was really an exception.
"No, isn't Miss Su a daughter? Don't you still miss her? Shen Nianzhen blinked his eyes.
"Are you jealous?" When Rong Chen heard this, he immediately looked over with a smile.
When Shen Nianzhen heard this, his face immediately turned red.
Fortunately, the light in the trap pit was dim, and only a few bright lights above her head could shine through, and Rong Chen couldn't see her expression.
"Yes, I'm jealous, after all, you and I are fiancΓ©s." Meditation on the truth and straightforward way.
This has to be put aside, Shen Nian really won't say such a thing if she was killed, from the very beginning, her idea was to be a couple with Rong Chen who respected each other on the surface and lived separately in private, but what happened recently gradually changed her mind in her heart.
Rong Chen is not as bad as his reputation outside.
If he could, Shen Nianzhen still wanted a happy marriage.
However, after listening to this question, Rong Chen suddenly fell silent.
He didn't answer Shen Nianzhen's words for a long time.
In the trap, he hung his head slightly, and Shen Nianzhen couldn't see his expression.
Shen Nianzhen sat there, although he was still smiling on his face, the gentleness in his eyes faded little by little.
But it turned out that no matter how much life and death he and Rong Chen shared, they couldn't compare to Su Muwan.
"It's all right, Your Highness." Shen Nianzhen smiled slightly, and had returned to normal: "You have a good rest, I'll think about going out." β
As he spoke, he let go of Rong Chen, and then stood up.
But at this moment, Rong Chen suddenly spoke, and his voice was low: "Although Wan'er is a dignified and virtuous lady on the surface, she is actually the most naughty one, when she was a child, she was the one who was punished the most by Aunt Su, and this palace didn't know how to explain my relationship with her to you, but now, this palace just treats her as a little sister, and soon, she will marry the third brother, isn't it?" β
Shen Nianzhen slowly turned his head to look at him.
Perhaps because of excessive blood loss, Rong Chen's face was slightly pale, and his lips were glowing with a faint white mist, but his eyes were still dark and bright.
Putting everything aside, this is indeed a demon who has captivated the country and the city.
Who can stand this!
Shen Nianzhen turned his head violently, pressed a fluttering heart, and said indifferently: "Really? β
At this moment, she was relieved in her heart, what does she care about Su Muwan, Zhang Muwan, Liu Muwan, since Rong Chen is her person now, no one wants to snatch him away from her! Fuck the rules and etiquette! his childhood sweetheart!
Shen Nianzhen turned around, raised his feet, walked in front of Rong Chen, and then squatted down, the momentum was actually domineering.
"You, what are you going to do?" Rong Chen looked at her in shock, a little overwhelmed.
The most cunning and taunting people will actually be afraid?
Shen Nianzhen hooked the corners of his mouth, suddenly stepped forward, and before Rong Chen could react, he suddenly leaned over and gently dropped a kiss on his lips.
Rong Chen was suddenly shocked.
Shen Nianzhen had already let him go.
"Take care of it, teach me the rest, I'll think about going out." Shen Nianzhen said domineeringly, then smiled at him, and then turned around and searched around to see if he could find anything to help them climb up, otherwise there would be no food or drink in this kind of place, and the two of them would not be able to hold out for two days.
Shouldn't that be his line? I was robbed......
Rong Chen blinked his eyes and sat there, because of the medicine, his leg no longer hurts, but his heart is itchy, and a novel feeling comes up.
In the past, he treated others domineeringly, but today, he was lying here weakly, being taken care of by a woman domineeringly.
This feeling......
It's unspeakably sweet.
When Rong Chen was a nymphomaniac alone, Shen Nianzhen had already found a large pile of dry straw in the corner, she sat down, and then braided the straw into a strong and solid rope, Rong Chen watched her busy work, and couldn't help asking: "Do you want to get a rope out and throw it up, so that you can climb up?" This kind of weaving method seems to be only known to those poor people, right? You're a daughter......"
"I learned it from my master." Shen Nian was really lazy to explain.
It's true that she is a daughter, but when she was young, her father was not a big commander, and the family was not very wealthy at that time.
Rong Chen saw that she was a little unhappy, so he didn't continue to ask.
However, there was more curiosity about her in my heart.
Thinking of the kiss just now, he suddenly became a little hot all over.
Obediently, it's just a kiss, and he can't stop teasing him, does Shen Nian really know how to demons?
It was getting dark.
The two of them did not wait for the search and rescue people, the eldest prince and they seemed to have disappeared, and they did not send anyone to look for them at all, Shen Nianzhen and Rong Chen listened carefully with their ears pricked up for an afternoon, but they couldn't hear even the slightest sound of footsteps and talking, and the entire mountain forest was full of silence.
It seems that tonight, the two of them can only spend the night in this trap, and they don't know if there will be any wild beasts.
"Don't be afraid, if there is a beast, dare to come down, and the palace will see one and slaughter the other." Rong Chen took out the dagger from the placket of his shirt and lowered his voice.
Shen Nianzhen nodded, and said with some concern: "I don't know what the eldest prince is doing at the moment?" Maybe the two of us are missing, and death is his purpose? β
"Bengong can't figure out his mind now."
Rong Chen said: "Everything is still waiting for tomorrow, maybe tomorrow, they will send someone to search." β
"Could it be that the medicine I gave them was too heavy?" Shen Nianzhen tried hard to recall the past, and his expression showed a trace of remorse: "But shouldn't it?" The effect of that medicine is at most half an hour......"
"Don't think about it so much, there may be an accident." Rong Chen persuaded.
Shen Nianzhen nodded when he heard this.
There is no water and no food in the trap, it is dark and damp, Shen Nianzhen and Rong Chen are tired, hungry and thirsty, but they can only carry it hard, in order to be able to save strength and persist until tomorrow, Shen Nianzhen will not weave the straw rope anymore, make the remaining straw into a bed, help Rong Chen to lie down, and she herself sat down by Rong Chen.
Rong Chen was very apologetic, at such a time, Shen Nianzhen followed him, and he was really wronged.
Shen Nianzhen didn't think so, she was still regretting her previous willfulness, if she hadn't had to pull Rong Chen around, the two of them would not have fallen into this trap, and Rong Chen would not have been injured in order to protect her.
But at this moment, she suddenly smelled a faint smell of meat in the corner, as if there was nothing.
Meaty? At this time, how can there be a meaty smell in such a place?
Shen Nianzhen couldn't help but take a deep breath, yes, there was indeed a faint smell of meat in the air, this couldn't be fake, it couldn't deceive her nose.
"Nianzhen? What are you doing? β
Rong Chen looked at her curiously, sniffing left and right, a little unclear.
Shen Nianzhen ignored him, but stood up and looked around in the trap again, this time, her purpose was only to find the hidden smell of meat.
Rong Chen advised her to be careful: "There may be any traps in this deep pit, I don't know, you should be careful......"
Before the words fell, Shen Nianzhen suddenly bent down, picked up the gray thing on the bottom, and said excitedly: "Found it!" β
What was found? Rong Chen's face was confused.
Shen Nianzhen had already walked up to him with the lump of things he had found, and opened it happily, but it turned out that it was a roast chicken wrapped in lotus leaves.
"This ...... Isn't it the one you roasted earlier? Rong Chen looked at this chicken with some familiarity.
"Not bad!" Shen Nianzhen's eyebrows fluttered and said, "Isn't this chicken occupied by the eldest prince?" I scared him that there was medicine in it, and he didn't dare to eat it, so he asked people to throw it away, but he didn't expect to throw it here! Now it's back in our hands, this is really a providence in the dark! β
After speaking, he tore off a chicken leg and handed it to Rong Chen: "Your Highness, eat it quickly!" β
Although Rong Chen was hungry, he still shook his head when he looked at the oily chicken legs: "No, you can eat it!" I'm sick now, I'm afraid it's ...... Can't eat. β
"Can't eat? You've been hungry for a day! Shen Nianzhen looked at the chicken legs, and then at Rong Chen's pale face, and didn't believe what he said.
Since it's not hunger, it's that he can't eat this thing when it's cold.
These two princes, no matter where they go, are so delicate.
Shen Nianzhen sighed silently in his heart, asked Rong Chen for a fire fold, walked farther, made a fire, put the cold roast chicken on it and reheated it, and tore it into one by one with his hands, and then came to feed Rong Chen.
She went through such a hard time, Rong Chen couldn't refuse, and he was indeed hungry, so he ate half a chicken one bite at a time, and the reheated chicken was no longer as delicious as it was at the beginning, but in this night of lack of food and water, it was the supreme delicacy, which not only filled his stomach, but also warmed his heart.
After eating half, Rong Chen waved his hand, saying that he was full and let Shen Nianzhen eat by himself: "You are also tired for a day, hurry up and eat!" β
Shen Nianzhen saw that he was indeed full, so he sat down and devoured the rest of the chicken.
After eating and drinking, Shen Nianzhen took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth and hands, endured the condition that there was no water to wash his hands, and walked over to change the medicine for Rong Chen.
At the same time, the eldest prince in the Forbidden Forest has begun to gather all the forbidden troops and prepare to leave here at dawn and return to Shangjing.
"Your Highness, the Second Prince and Miss Shen haven't been found yet, should we really just give up?" Yu Gu asked suspiciously.
