Chapter 176: By Your Side
"Isn't there still me? I'll be with you always. "
Han Qi's words really scared Duguyue a lot, she looked at him in a daze, forgetting what she was going to do next.
Sighing helplessly, he reached out and touched Duguyue's hair and said, "Stupid!"
I didn't notice that when he said this, there was a faint pampering in his tone.
"You, you, you ......"
Duguyue has always been 'you' non-stop, but she doesn't know what to say, and in the face of such a thing, she is also facing it for the first time.
Han Qi stretched out his slashed wrist in front of him, and with his other hand, he pulled a piece of cloth from the corner of his clothes, and then wrapped Duguyue.
"Stupid!"
Han Qi screamed again, and he took her away from the round stool, then picked her up and carried her to the bed.
"You, what do you want to do?"
Duguyue's hand touched the quilt, she knew that she was in bed now, but a good tutor told her that she couldn't do this with a man, she vigilantly stepped back, retreated, and retreated until her back hit the hard wall, and she would not stop.
"Stupid, sleep!"
Looking at Duguyue's vigilant little appearance, Han Qi felt angry and funny, he didn't have any interest in doing her now, this was taking advantage of people's danger, and he didn't bother to do it.
Go to bed?!
Hearing Han Qi say this, Duguyue was once again blindsided.
She looked at him blankly, and just kept looking at him.
Looking at Duguyue's cute appearance at this time, Han Qi smiled a little, he reached out and pinched Duguyue's right cheek, the force in his hand was not heavy or light, but it was just enough to pull Duguyue's expression back.
"What are you thinking so seriously?"
Duguyue shook her head, lowered her head again, and was too shy to raise her head.
Han Qi knew that she was shy, and he was a little embarrassed, but in order to prevent her from doing things that hurt him again, he still felt the need to accompany her like this.
Han Qi also lay on the bed, turned sideways to face Duguyue, and took the lead in closing his eyes and falling asleep.
Duguyue felt that the people around her didn't move or speak, she was very confused, she reached over and touched it with her free hand, and when she touched Han Qi's eyes, she knew that he might be asleep.
She didn't wake him up with such a big move.
Duguyue was very scared, and she quickly closed her eyes and went to sleep.
Han Qi opened a slit in his eyes and saw Duguyue close his eyes, the corners of his mouth went up, and he closed his eyes and continued to sleep.
When he woke up in the morning, Helian Chen, as usual, got up early to practice his sword, but this time it was a little different, and Chu Xiaoxiang was practicing sword with him.
"Didn't it make you sleep a little longer?"
Helian Chen stopped, he walked to the side to rest for a while, and saw that Chu Xiaoxiang was still practicing swords, so he said.
"I don't want to, if I go to sleep any longer, I'll have to become a lazy pig, besides, I also have to practice, I haven't practiced swords for a long time." As he spoke, he swung the long stick as a long sword and swung a few moves.
Helian Chen shook his head amusedly, picked up the long stick beside him, and joined the practice.
After practicing for a while, the two stopped together, put down the long stick in their hands, and walked into the cabin together.
"After practicing for a while, my whole body is sweating, and I feel a little stinky." Chu Xiaoxiang lowered her head and sniffed the collar for any peculiar smell, but as a result, a peculiar smell came, which really didn't smoke her to death.
"Why don't I bring you a bucket of water?"
Chu Xiaoxiang thought for a while and said, "Don't use it for the time being, let's quickly clean up, lock the door, and then rinse it when we go to the Imperial City Inn."
"Okay."
Saying that, they quickly cleaned up, and before leaving, they cleaned the house again, and then went out.
The door inside the house, the door outside the house were locked, and they turned and began to walk in the direction of the imperial city.
In the county inn, Han Qi was also simply tidying up, they came out in a hurry, and they didn't bring any clothes that could be changed and washed, and they could only temporarily wear this set of clothes on their bodies.
When Duguyue also cleaned up, I saw her slowly groping out, with her jet-black hair scattered over her shoulders, giving people the illusion of coming out of the mud without staining.
Han Qi'er didn't say a word, he calmly stepped forward, reached out to hold her hand, took her to the dresser, and groomed her.
"You, what do you want to do?"
Duguyue didn't know what Han Qi wanted to do at first, until she felt a pair of warm hands caressing her hair, Duguyue knew, it turned out that he was grooming her.
It's quite touching, Duguyue is sitting on a round stool, she doesn't know what she looks like in the bronze mirror in front of her at this time, she can just feel that these people with big hands are grooming themselves very seriously.
That must be beautiful! However, she couldn't see such a beautiful self.
Suddenly, Duguyue felt that the big hands stopped, and there was no heating behind her, followed by the cool breeze.
"Alright."
Hearing Han Qi say yes, Duguyue's cheeks turned red.
She didn't know if she remembered what he had said to her out of the blue last night, or if he had just combed his hair, but in short, her cheeks were very red and hot at this time.
She quickly lowered her head, just because she didn't want Han Qi to see her current appearance.
"It's beautiful, so don't worry."
This sentence is as if to say, you can leave you to me with confidence.
Duguyue felt that she was really going crazy now, how could she think so?
She tried her best to suppress her voice and said, "Mmmm, I know."
"Okay, we're almost cleaned up, stand up, I'll help you downstairs."
"Okay......
Suddenly, Duguyue seemed to think of something and said, "That, I want to go back and see my brother for the last time."
Hearing Duguyue's request, she paused and fell silent.
After a while, he said, "Okay, let's go down and have some breakfast first, and then go buy a horse, and then how about we go back?"
Duguyue nodded.
Duguyue relieved Han Qi to slowly help herself downstairs, and then came to a position to sit down, and suddenly, she remembered a man's shouting: "This son, this girl, what do you want to eat?"
"Let's have a cup of tea, a few steamed buns, and side dishes first."
"Okay, please wait a minute, the little one will go over and prepare it for the two of you." Saying that, Xiao Er left, and he went to the back kitchen to prepare breakfast for them.
Delivered to them early and quickly, they ate slowly, Han Qi was the fastest to eat, he raised his head and beckoned Xiao Er and said, "Xiao Er, these steamed buns are packed, and the bill is settled."
"Are you full?" Duguyue asked suspiciously.
"I'm full, I'll let people pack the rest of the steamed buns now, if you want to eat on the way, tell me, I'll get it for you."
Duguyue nodded.
Han Qi packed the remaining steamed buns and carried them, while he bent down to pick her up when Duguyue stood up, and then walked towards the gate.
Han Qi was really unfamiliar with this small county town on the border of the Dust Country, and asked a lot of people to know that there were people selling horses here, so he bought a medium horse, paid the money, and took the lead in putting Duguyue on the horse, and he was the last to get on the horse.
The two rode back quickly, just because Duguyue wanted to see her brother for the last time.
The speed of the ride was always a little over, and they soon returned to the cabin, which was now locked, but if she wanted to enter, there was no way for her.
Isn't she followed by a man with strong martial arts? She can help her figure it out, and besides, she has a spare key too.
"Are you going in?"
Han Qi looked at her and kept looking at the cabin, and asked suspiciously.
"The princess and her benefactor are gone." Duguyue replied to the question.
"Well, they did."
"Let's go, I want to go see my brother."
Han Qi nodded, he carefully helped Duguyue to the back of the cabin, and sure enough, there was a small mound there, and there was a log in front of the small mound.
Duguyue came to the wood with Han Qi's support, and she couldn't see what words were written on the wood, so she grabbed Han Qi's arm tightly with her backhand and said, "Tell me, what is written on it?"
Han Qi looked at the wood and said calmly: "There is a 'tomb of Dugu Yin' written there."
Hearing the words read by Han Qi, Duguyue's world completely collapsed, she slowly followed, and finally sat directly on the ground and cried, touching the piece of wood with both hands, crying and crying.
When Duguyue was tired of crying, Han Qi bent down, carefully helped Duguyue up, and said solemnly: "Senior Dugu, you are here to testify, I, Han Qi, want to marry Duguyue as my wife, I will take her well for the rest of my life, and I will always accompany her, please rest assured!"
Saying that, Han Qi still wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Dugu Yin three times.
Hearing Han Qi's words, Duguyue was once again blindfolded. She always thought that Han Qi was joking, but she didn't expect him to promise like this in front of her brother, saying that it would be absolutely false if she was not moved.
"Why would you say that to your brother?"
At this time, Duguyue didn't know what to say, and finally found her voice, how did it feel weird when she said it?
"Dugu girl, Han Qi is serious."
Hearing Han Qi say that he was serious, Dugu Yue's cheeks turned red, she lowered her head, and he was silent.
The two worshipped Dugu Yin, Han Qi helped Dugu Yue down the mountain together, and when he returned to the cabin, Dugu Yue said to Han Qi: "Take me to the corner between the fence and the wooden house."
"Okay, what are you doing here?" Han Qi was very confused.
"I remember my brother saying before that there is a spare key to the cabin, so I must remember it, but fortunately I haven't forgotten."
"Then I'll go, you just wait here."
As he spoke, he walked over, stretched out his hand and slowly groped through the gap, and sure enough, he found the key in the sand.
He walked back to Duguyue's side and said, "What do you want this spare key for?"
"I want to stay here today to spend time with my brother, how about we go tomorrow?" Duguyue prayed pitifully.
"Okay, listen to you, let's go tomorrow, let's stay today." With that, Han Qi helped Duguyue to the front door, reached out and inserted the key into the keyhole, and easily opened the door.
The two walked into the house together, Han Qi even picked up Duguyue horizontally, put him on a round stool and sat down, while he went to see what could be eaten.
