Chapter 140: Walking on the Water
Chapter 140: Walking the Water
The three days were a little rushed, and Du Qing prescribed a pair of calming 'medicine' to me, saying that it was to help me sleep. The sky outside has gradually come to an end, but my heart is a little anxious, An Hai has not come back yet, didn't he say that it was okay today?
Just as I was pacing around my room, I suddenly heard a shout outside, "Walk the water, walk the water, put out the fire!" Someone's coming! The screams came and went, and my heart jumped suddenly, perhaps affected by my emotions, and the child in my belly began to punch and kick uneasily, but no one came in to look for me.
took a handkerchief, poured tea on it, and was about to cover his nose when An Hai rushed in, took my hand and ran out, and whispered, "The slave is now taking the path to take Niangniang to the Temple of the Gods, Lord Chu is already waiting." ”
I held my stomach tightly with one hand, the clothes on my body were also slightly messy, my hair bun had fallen down, and my hair was scattered, a little embarrassed, An Hai took me from the backyard of the Star Picking Hall to run, the place where I walked was not far from where I lived, all the people rushed there, and the red sleeves were also sent by me to grab the 'medicine', and they really didn't be found for a while.
The winding path leads to the secluded, sheep intestine path, I was taken aback, when did there be such a path in the Star Picking Palace, before I could ask, An Hai himself began to say, "This road was pointed out by Lord Chu, it was originally led directly to the edge of Qixia Lake, no one passed by on weekdays, it was all deserted, and the slaves only 'touched' and took care of it in the past few days before they could leave." ”
An Hai held a bright night pearl in his hand, and in such a dark moment, he didn't dare to light the lamp, otherwise he would be like a target, and he would be seen at a glance. I followed closely behind An Hai, my palms were sweaty, and I trotted all the way, because I was pregnant, I was tired and out of breath after a few steps, but when I thought of the end of the defeat, I gritted my teeth and ran desperately.
But after two quarters of an hour, I was actually standing in the house behind the Temple of the Gods, Chu Lige stood quietly at the entrance of the 'door' and looked at me, he didn't say a word, but he seemed to be in the dust.
"Lige ......" I held my stomach and stepped forward, seeing that his heart was sour, I choked up and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't take care of Chu Mo." ”
Chu Lige was originally frowning, but when he heard me say this, he stretched out his heart and comforted, "Maha said that the master left very peacefully, you accompany him on the last journey, what is there to be sorry for." ”
I stood in front of him blankly, and many memories of Chu Mo flashed in my mind. He stepped forward and 'rubbed' my emanation and said, "I didn't know you were having such a hard time, or I would have come a long time ago." Seeing that I still didn't say anything, he continued to ask, "Jiu'er, are you willing to go with me?" ”
How long has it been, no one will 'rub' my hair like this, since Chu Mo was sick and Chu Lige left, I have never felt these warmth anymore, and it turned out that more than half a year had passed in a trance.
"Yes." I nodded heavily, in front of Chu Lige, I finally let go of my long-standing defense, he was trustworthy and trustworthy, and he had the same sense of security as Chu Mo.
Listening to my answer, he hugged horizontally, jumped into the air, with the power of the ginkgo treetops and the palace wall, he jumped me to the outer wall of the house dozens of meters high branches, I quietly hugged his neck, even if it was such a high tree, but I did not feel afraid, the appearance of the temple of the gods has been hidden under the night, it turns out that this world really has the existence of light work.
The Star Picking Hall not far away was still noisy and brightly lit, and he lowered his head and asked me gently, "Jiu'er, will you regret it?" ”
Looking at the desolate temple of the gods, thinking of Chu Mo's words before he died, I shook my head and replied firmly, "No regrets, let's go." ”
He listened to my answer, as if he hooked the corners of his mouth, and 'revealed' some smiles, I rarely saw such a serious Chu Lige. Then he nodded, told me to hold him tightly, jumped again, got off the tree, looked at the bluestone road under his feet, presumably on the palace road, he carried me into a carriage, whispered a few words, and sat with me.
The axle creaked, adding a bit of uneasy sound to this quiet night, and I looked at Chu Lige with palpitations, full of questions, but I didn't know where to start.
"An Hai said that he can protect himself, so don't worry, Moxi has been picked up by me to Situ Villa. For safety, we went out of the city directly after leaving the palace and went all the way south back to Jiangnan. If you are pregnant, if you feel unwell, you must say it. Moxi asked me to bring you a plum with motion sickness. "I also asked, when I spoke, Chu Lige kept talking by himself like pouring beans.
After listening to him, my heart sank calmly, and I couldn't take care of the rest, but An Hai, I was still a little worried, but could he really protect himself?
Carefully looking at the decoration in the carriage, there is a soft couch that is enough for me to stretch my 'legs', on which a cotton mattress has been laid, and a small square table, where a 'fine' porcelain jar is placed, I reached out and took it, opened the lid and smelled a sour plum smell with the fragrance of 'flower', it is Moxi's craftsmanship, I used 'flower' to stuff plum or I 'handed over' her, reached out and took out one from it and stuffed it into my mouth, sweet and sour, making people feel like crying.
Chu Lige didn't ask me why I was pregnant, nor did he ask me what happened, he just sat quietly beside me and told me about the plans along the way. I left in a hurry, except for this piece of clothing on my body, I didn't take anything, not even a piece of jewelry, even if the 'jade' card and the favorite golden hairpin that I played on weekdays also fell in the Star Picking Palace, I remembered a burst of chagrin, but then I was relieved, I had left, why care about those dead things.
It's okay if it's gone, so that I can really get out of that place completely, no matter who it is, it has nothing to do with me, but I'm still a little worried about An Hai's safety, and Qi Hao, I don't know where it is now.
I don't know why the carriage was so unimpeded, and even when it stopped to rest, we were already outside the city. Looking at the starry sky and smelling the fragrance of those rice 'flowers', I was a little in a trance and a little surprised, and asked curiously towards Chu Lige in the car, "Lige, this carriage actually left the city so quickly." ”
It was I who shouted that I wanted to rest for a while, so the carriage stopped, got out of the carriage, and found that the outside of the carriage was simply simple to the extreme, and the outside was spliced with wooden planks, blocking the original luxury, in addition to the groom, there was also a 'squire', such a simple carriage, such a small number of slaves, actually from the palace all the way to the outside of the city, so how could I not be curious.
Chu Lige laughed sullenly in the carriage, and said, "I entered the palace to deliver 'medicine' materials, and when I left the palace, I immediately gave the key, and the inquiry was the most lax when the guards were replaced, and I used silver taels in advance to dredge, as for leaving the city, the news in the palace did not come out, everything inside and outside the city is normal, and the pass has been completed, so why is it difficult." ”
He said it so easily, but I didn't think so, maybe I was afraid that I would worry, so I said this, after all, the 'door' of the palace was strictly forbidden, how could he say it so easily, but since he didn't want me to worry, then I wouldn't ask.
After resting for a quarter of an hour, the wind was a little cool at night, I sneezed, Chu Lige hurriedly urged me to go up after hearing it, thinking that there was a child in my belly, although I was nostalgic for this beautiful night scene, but I still didn't dare to be 'sexy', stepped on the footstool and got into the carriage, swaying and a little drowsy.
"If you're sleepy, sleep for a while, I guess you won't be able to rest tonight, and tomorrow morning, I'll take you to the inn to rest and eat something." Chu Lige saw me sitting upright, but I kept dozing off, and I couldn't help but feel funny, and said.
I felt dizzy, but after all the tossing just now, I was no longer polite, rinsed my mouth with tea, wiped my face with some water with a handkerchief, and fell asleep on my side on the soft couch.
