Chapter Seventy-Five: It's Coming
Ling'er and Ah Jue sat in the car and didn't speak, Ling'er looked at the scenery outside, Ah Jue was sleepy, a strong nap, the senior brother Niu outside chatted happily with his sixth junior brother, the conversation box of the two opened all of a sudden, and I didn't see that the master was a chatterbox before, it is estimated that he has been talking little in the palace, and he can't control his mouth when he comes out, but what should be said and what can't be said, the master can still carry it clearly.
Ah Jue was sleepy and swayed from side to side, and once he leaned his head on Ling'er to sleep, Ling'er pushed him, and Ah Jue was woken up at once: "Have you arrived?" Where's it going? Sleepy-eyed asked.
"No, it's early." The Grand Commander outside replied.
"You sleep well, what are you doing with your head on me!" Ling'er glared at Ah Jue.
"I'm sorry." Ah Jue closed his eyes and apologized, leaned his head on the other side and fell asleep, Ling'er saw that he was sleeping again, or continue to look out the window, the scenery outside is very beautiful, it is the primeval forest, walking on the forest path, you can sometimes see monkeys in the distance outside the car, and small elk in the distance.
"Master, this is so beautiful, there are a lot of small animals, can we get to the place tonight?" Ling'er opened the curtain a little and asked.
"We're going to stay outside for the night tonight, we're rushing there, it's a resting place designed by Master Murong, you'll know when you arrive." The Grand Commander replied.
"This is your apprentice?" Murong Bo asked the master.
"Well, very smart little girl, I have watched her grow up since she was a child, just like my own children." The master looked at Ling'er and smiled and motioned for her to go back and sit down.
"I'll take in an apprentice tomorrow, and you have apprentices for both of you." Murong Bo was very envious.
In this way, there was a rush without a ride, and in the middle of the afternoon, I arrived at the place where I would rest tonight, just a house with a yard, the house was quite large, and the courtyard wall was also very high, and the group locked the door when the carriage was parked in the yard, because Master Murong Bo said that there was everything at night, and it was safe to lock it, and there was grass for horses to eat in the yard, firewood for fire, and some charcoal left over from burning firewood.
"We have to rest before dark, it's too unsafe in the mountains." Master Murong Bo said that he was still opening the door of the room, opening the door, there was only one room inside, the bed in the room was a bunk, the kind of shop that could burn the fire underneath, there was a place for burning fire next to the wall, after Murong Bo came in, he went outside the house to get some hay and firewood and put it into the wall, took the fire fold and lit the hay and put it inside, closed the door, and the house felt warm for a while, Ling'er had never seen these in the imperial city, it felt very fresh and interesting.
"Master, it's warm." Ling'er said in surprise.
"Haha, I haven't seen it, kid, it's not cold to sleep at night, it's warm during the day, and it's very cold at night." The master's hearty laughter infected Ling'er, and Ling'er was also very happy, living in this kind of place for the first time, with excitement.
Murong Yiyi also came in: "You have a car to talk about, but I have a car by myself, and I really don't even have anyone to talk to." She complained, but she was still working, ready to cook and eat: "Handsome Brother Wen, can you burn the fire if I cook?" β
Wen Qingjue had just gotten out of the car and hadn't woken up yet, Mimi looked at Yiyi in a daze: "Well, okay." β
Ling'er listened to the music on the side: "Handsome guy Wen, I also want to burn the fire with you, I won't, I want to see you burn." β
Ah Jue pushed Ling'er's head, "You-stirring stick!" β
"Ling'er, you go and make the bed, everyone has to work here, and in the future, there is no master and slave, you can do what you can." The master instructed Ling'er.
"Yes, master, will everyone sleep in this same bed tonight?" Ling'er was a little embarrassed.
"Well, let's do it, you sleep with Yiyi, I sleep with Gongzi Wen and the sixth junior brother, the order is like this, Yiyi, you, Gongzi Wen, me, the sixth junior brother." The master folded his hands and counted and explained to Ling'er.
"Why am I next to Ah Jue?" Ling'er was very unhappy, she hadn't slept with so many people in this bed since she was a child.
"If you don't want to, let's change, I'm willing to be next to Wen Handsome guy." Yiyi was cooking and talking next to him.
Ah Jue didn't speak, looked up at Ling'er, and gave her a look of don't agree, please. Ling'er agreed as if she was watching a joke: "Okay, okay, then I'll go shop." β
Ah Jue was not happy, and the fire was no longer burning, so she stood up and grabbed Ling'er, and said in her ear: "If you let me be next to her and not you, I will tell your master what happened to you last night." β
Ling'er was also joking, and seeing that Ah Jue was in a hurry, the purpose was also achieved: "Yiyi, Ah Jue threatened me, saying that if I dared to change him, he wouldn't comb my hair tomorrow morning, but I still wouldn't change it, so I would shop it according to what the master said." β
"Who can't comb your hair, I'll comb it for you, I want to be next to Wen Handsome guy." Yiyi was not annoyed, and replied to Ling'er with a smile.
"Miss Murong, Ling'er is my fiancΓ©e, Yu Li..."
"Is the fiancΓ©e just unmarried, I just like you like this, everything can be changed without a decision." Yiyi still didn't buy it.
"Yiyi, don't make trouble with Wen Gongzi anymore, he is thin-skinned, you tease him like this, he can't accept it." Murong Bo came in to speak, he had just gone to feed the horse and come in.
"Haha, this Central Plains person is thin-skinned and exquisite." Murong Yiyi laughed loudly.
Dinner is Yiyi burned, very delicious, but also very simple, eat well everyone is ready to wash their feet and rest, tomorrow morning dawn will have to hurry, it is extremely cold outside now, the temperature difference between day and night is large.
"Have you all washed and slept? I slept all day during the day..."Ah Jue said helplessly.
"You count the night owls, sleep during the day, and don't sleep at night." Ling'er laughed at him.
"Wen Gongzi, there is chess here, if you are not sleepy, let's play a card? I ate it all after eating. The master saw that he was embarrassed and had the heart to call him.
"I don't know how to play chess...... Ah Jue replied helplessly, "Forget it, the master has been driving the carriage for a day, and it is time to rest early." I should be sleepy after lying in bed for a while. β
Because of the chase shop she slept, Ling'er was embarrassed to take off her clothes, she fell asleep with her hair and clothes scattered, lying on the kang, she found that it was awkward to turn her face to sleep on Yiyi's side, and it was awkward to sleep on Wen Qingjue's side, and it was awkward to sleep when she was sleeping, so she couldn't fall asleep over and over.
"What's wrong, Ling'er?" Ah Jue couldn't sleep and talk to her.
"No, so many people feel so awkward together, it's hard to sleep." Ling'er replied.
"Talk to you? You didn't sleep during the day today, and it's time to sleep when you feel sleepy. "Ah Jue still has changes, but he didn't notice it himself, and he didn't feel it, now he is very patient with Ling'er, and he is willing to coax her to be happy, sometimes although he doesn't say it, a clear-eyed person can see it at a glance, such as Commander Niu, listening to the chat between the two of them, he is very relieved, and he doesn't interject, pretending to be asleep.
"Who chats with you, I'm sleepy, sleep!" Ling'er also has changes in Ah Jue, but neither Ling'er nor Ah Jue found out, she is somewhat dependent on Ah Jue and has no fear, not like before.
Ling'er really fell asleep after tossing and turning for a while, sleeping with her face facing Ah Jue, Ah Jue felt that everyone was asleep, so she lay down and looked at Ling'er asleep, and couldn't help poking her face with her hand, and the smile was all written on her face.
"When are you going to tell Ling'er what you think?" The Grand Commander closed his eyes and spoke, and whispered to Ah Jue, Ah Jue was startled, quickly took his hand back, and was lying down and whispered to the Grand Commander: "Master Niu... Ling'er doesn't have a place for me in her heart, everyone can see what she looks like to the one who has gone, you must not say anything like my heart to Ling'er, if she knows, she will treat me the same as Shi Mi. β
"Not necessarily, I think Ling'er has been very dependent on you recently, you see who she has done this to, except for her father and mother, there is no one left, you are the third." The Grand Commander whispered to Young Master Wen with his face.
"Isn't there the one who has gone?" Ah Jue's heart is sweet.
"No, but I don't deny it, Ling'er likes him very much, it's just that the person is gone, and there is nothing to compare, you are you, and you can only accompany him, this is what her father meant." The Grand Commander replied.
Ah Jue was a little uncomfortable when she was said, and she couldn't show it: "I know, I can wait." β
"You're finally admitting your true thoughts to me?" The Grand Commander smiled, treacherously.
"What if you up...... Ah Jue reacted.
"No, your performance in the past few days has been obvious." The Grand Commander said with a smile.
"Then how can I not be obvious, I don't want Ling'er to know yet, and I can't let her know, if she knows, she will ignore me." Ah Jue was in a hurry.
"If you don't say it, no matter how obvious the performance is, she doesn't know that Ling'er is big in this regard. You can tell her when it's obvious to her that she has the same heart for you. "The Grand Commander has no family, and he talks about it one by one.
"Do you mean she's a little stupid?" Ah Jue smiled and put on the words of the commander.
"Don't fool me, I didn't say it." The commander is not fooled, "I fell asleep, I didn't talk to the people who talked to me, and I was still in a hurry." However, Ling'er will still rely on you to take care of her after this. β
"I'm really willing to fall into your trap." Ah Jue said helplessly.
"Hahaha, sleep!" The Grand Commander closed his eyes and turned his face to the other side.
Ah Jue didn't feel sleepy at all, opened her eyes and looked at Ling'er sleeping in front of him, she was stingy, and she didn't know how to attract people, her sleeping posture was a little wrong, and there was some drooling, Ah Jue gently wiped her with her hand, and sorted out the emanation on her face by the way, just looking at Ling'er who was asleep, and I didn't know when she fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, the horse suddenly screamed, the commander and Murong Bo suddenly got up, went out with the sword, closed the door, and then heard the sound of the wolf howling, and finally I don't know who killed the wolf with a sword, the master lit a fire next to the stable, so that the wolf would not dare to come, none of the three people sleeping in the house woke up, Ah Jue, Ling'er, and Yiyi were all older children. The two masters put the wolf they had slain, and went into the house and went to sleep.
The next morning, everyone got up early.
"Master, morning. Uncle Bo, early. Yiyi, early. Ah Jue, you're so lazy, get up quickly! I'm going to comb my hair. "Ling'er slept well and woke up in a good mood.
"Well, here we go." Ah Jue picked up the comb with a sleepy look on his face and came.
"Why don't I," Yiyi said, "I'll comb too." β
"No need, Ling'er promised me that I would comb it for her, and I can't ask you to help." Ah Jue was a little sleepy and still talked.
"What did Ling'er promise you?" The Grand Commander asked curiously.
"Shhh Ling'er doesn't want everyone to know.
"I know." Ah Jue smiled and combed her hair.
"Young Master Wen, comb Yiyi's hair." Yiyi is here to join in the fun again.
"No, I'll just comb men's hair." Ah Jue refused.
"Then you'll comb me a man's." Depend on it or not.
"Yiyi, hurry up and cook rice, eat and hurry!" Murong Bo didn't ask Yiyi to make trouble, Yiyi pouted and left.
"Didn't you sleep well last night? I am not allowed to sleep during the day today, and I will not sleep at night in the province. Ling'er looked at Ah Jue's bloodshot eyes and said.
"You don't talk to me in the car, why don't I sleep."
"Gongzi Wen, take my car today, I'll talk to you, and you won't be sleepy." Yiyi shouted to this side next to the stove.
ββ¦β¦ I can read books. Ah Jue smiled bitterly.
"Hahaha, Ah Jue, your peach blossom luck has been so strong recently." Ling'er winked at the person in the mirror.
After breakfast in the morning, everyone set off, taking with them the loot of last night, wolf skins.
In the car, Ling'er was a little noisy today: "Master, why didn't you call me when you killed the wolf last night, such an interesting thing." β
"Do you think that's a dog? I worked with your uncle to kill it, and it took me half a day to peel off the skin in the morning. The Grand Commander said with a smile.
"Ling'er, we'll have to go through the cave in a while, and we'll have to take a boat, and we'll be here before dinner today, and there will be more interesting things." Murong Bo comforted Ling'er.
Sure enough, when I arrived at the entrance of a cave, the carriage stopped, and the master and Uncle Murong Bo lit a fire before continuing to go inside, the cave was very dark, but the place illuminated by the fire bar was very beautiful, and there was the sound of ticking water, it took about half an hour to come out of the cave, and the bats were frightened before they came out of the cave, and many bats were scared out of the cave during the day.
Out of the cave, the master asked everyone to eat some dry food, and the boat would be dark and invisible, so eat it now. After eating dry food and walking some roads, it is a mangrove forest, with trees, water and mountains. There were two small boats parked next to it, and it was just right to catch the carriage up. The master took our carriage to the boat in front, and Master Murong Bo took the boat in the back. The two boats drove in the mangrove forest for a while, and then went to the cave, and when they started to walk in the mangrove forest, Ah Jue's face was not good-looking, and when they wanted to drive the boat into the cave, Ah Jue began to vomit, and the dry food he ate at noon was vomited clean.
"Master Wen, find a piece of cloth and spit on it, don't lift the window, there are snakes in the cave." The Grand Commander said with a frown and alarm.
Ah Jue was already seasick and was about to faint, Ling'er put Ah Jue, who was in a daze and didn't vomit, on his shoulder, the last time Ah Jue took the boat, Ah Jue suffered a lot, this time again, Ah Jue didn't speak, moved or vomited anymore, just leaned on Ling'er and breathed evenly.
"Ah Jue, Ah Jue, wake up, you can already see the light, let's get out of the cave soon." Ling'er patted Ah Jue's face and said, but Ah Jue didn't react at all, Ling'er touched his snort, there was no problem, the child slept again.
Out of the cave or mangrove forest, after shuttling in the mangrove forest for more than half an hour, I went ashore again.
"Ah Jue, it's no longer on the ship, wake up!" Ling'er's shoulders were a little sore, and she patted his face and called him again.
Ah Jue woke up and found himself lying on Ling'er's shoulder, a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry Ling'er, I fell asleep." β
"Ling'er, Gongzi Wen, we're coming! You two look outside! The Grand Commander shouted, his voice filled with too much excitement and the excitement and joy of a long-lost reunion.
