Chapter 31 To the Bittersweet Land

The army traveled all the way north for nearly a hundred miles, and the number of rests during this period could be counted with both hands, and Scarlet Smoke rode on his horse, only to feel that there were bursts of hot pain from his inner thighs, and his whole body seemed to be about to fall apart.

Although she often trekked through mountains and rivers with her master to find medicinal herbs when she was young, the master would always take care of her, and that experience was not the slightest bit worse than the intensity of this long march. Fortunately, there was a Wei Chimu beside her who came to her from time to time to take care of her, otherwise she was really afraid that she would fall behind at any time.

Scarlet Yan thought that seeing that she was so embarrassed, Wei Chimu would tease her if she didn't mock her, but she didn't expect that from beginning to end, Yu Chimu didn't do that, just silently helped her, and her gaze drifted from time to time, and then moved away lightly after tossing and turning.

Finally, Yu Chimu ordered to rest again, Scarlet Smoke got off the horse with difficulty with the help of others, and as soon as she stood firmly, a slap slapped down on her shoulder, Scarlet Scarlet Staggered a few steps, she could stand still, turned her head to look, and the person who came was Brother Dong, whom she knew in the team.

Brother Dong's full name is Dong Zhihai, he is a native of the countryside, and there are two younger brothers at home who are waiting to be fed. His hearty and rough temperament gets along with each other at these times, and Scarlet Smoke also understands a thing or two.

Enduring the clamor of the bones in his body, Scarlet Smoke grinned at Dong Zhihai and wailed, "Brother Dong, you are light!" The bones with the kid are afraid of falling apart! Her wail immediately caused a burst of laughter from the soldiers around her.

As if realizing that he was too heavy, Dong Zhihai scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "Ouch, I didn't pay attention." Sorry! But you're too weak, like a girl, next time I'll teach you a way, practice for a month, and you'll be as strong as me. Dong Zhihai raised his arm as he said and showed his biceps to Scarlet Smoke.

Scarlet Yan couldn't cry or laugh, and before he could speak, a voice came from a distance, "The surname is Dong, you kid still don't give water to Dr. Yan?" Bring people to death from thirst, and see who will bandage and heal you! ”

It seems to relieve the siege of Scarlet Smoke, but in fact, this sentence once again fulfilled her weakness, Scarlet Smoke smiled with a smile on her face, looking at a group of soldiers sitting on the ground around her, with dusty faces on her face, there was no dissatisfaction in her heart, there was a battlefield waiting for them ahead, and it was good to relax and relax at this time.

The laughter gradually weakened, Dong Zhihai handed a kettle to Scarlet Smoke, and said with a smile, "Look at my memory, give!" ”

Scarlet Yan took the kettle, sat under the big tree, raised her head and poured water into her mouth, I have to say that following these men, her behavior is also a little arrogant, and sure enough, living such a deceitful life in the imperial city, it is better to be simple and straightforward in this barracks.

Seeing that she was really thirsty, Dong Zhihai smashed his mouth, "Hey, Yan boy, tell me, how did you know our iron-masked prince?" ”

"That's right, let's talk about it!"

"I've wanted to ask for a long time."

……

Dong Zhihai's words caused a response as soon as they came out, and Scarlet Smoke laughed dumbly, who said that men don't gossip? Scarlet Yan shook his head, and in a group of expectant eyes, he said slowly, "I also treated the prince for a second time." ”

"Oops! You're a doctor! Of course we know, what kind of illness it is? What's the cure? Dong Zhihai was stunned, very dissatisfied.

Scarlet Yan laughed, thinking of the experience of treating Wei Chi Mu's injuries outside the city, it should be enough to satisfy the appetite of these people, and he just wanted to speak, but he didn't want to be interrupted by the voice before,

"Doctor Yan, the prince invites you to come over."

"Hey! Here it comes! Scarlet Smoke raised her voice in response, and then in an ambiguous gaze, she helped the big tree to get up, "Come back, come back." Then he hurried to the place where Wei Chimu was.

When he came to Yu Chimu's horse, he saw that the man's face was pale, and he sighed in his heart, and secretly said that it was not good, so he reflexively touched the man's veins, but the next second, he held his wrist with his backhand. Scarlet was startled, and just wanted to break free, but heard a voice full of tiredness, "Don't move, this king doesn't feel good." ”

"What's going on? You let go of me, I'll help you see. Hearing him say this, Scarlet Smoke was secretly a little anxious.

Yu Chimu raised his eyebrows, he was pretending to be weak, but when he received the news that Huo and Mu had been prepared, he thought about taking her out quickly to join the two. I don't want her to take it seriously, "You help this king to the water's edge first." ”

Scarlet frowned, faintly feeling that something was wrong, but she still did as he said, and when she reached the water's edge, she looked back again, but saw that the man looked uncomfortable in the slightest? I couldn't help biting my lip, did I care too much?

Seeing the complicated expression on Scarlet Yan's face, Wei Chi Mu's eyes were gloomy, "I'm sorry, but you and I have to change routes." ”

After calming down, Scarlet Smoke guessed that they were going to that extremely cold place, but thinking of the soldiers who had been with her for a long time, she couldn't help frowning slightly, "What about these soldiers?" ”

Expecting her to ask this, Yu Chimu took out a set of women's clothes and said lightly, "This king has already arranged it." Just change your clothes and go to the Wood Convergence. ”

Scarlet Yan glanced at him deeply, took the clothes, and when Wei Chimu saw this, he walked to the side and looked into the distance.

Taking advantage of Wei Chi Mu's farewell to his face, Scarlet Smoke walked behind the reeds by the water, took off his clothes, changed into the clothes given by the man, scooped up a handful of water, washed off the powder used for camouflage on his face, and drugged the worn inner thigh, and then walked out.

I don't know when, Wei Chimu has already taken off the armor on his body, wearing a dark shirt, looking a lot more restrained, he led a horse, stood on the side of the horse to smooth its hair, and fed it some forage. Scarlet Smoke walked up to him, looked at the brown horse, and wondered a little, so he listened to the man,

"The extremely cold land is still some distance from here, and in the marching army, you can only move one horse, and you will be wronged along the way." With that, he rolled over his horse and held out a hand towards Crimson.

Scarlet Smoke looked at him for a while, and finally put his bare hand into the warm and thick hand, stepped on the horse, jumped on the horse's back with all his might, and was circled on the man's chest, feeling Wei Chimu's powerful heartbeat and the chest that was close at hand, Scarlet Smoke stagnated for a while, and the silver teeth bit down to force himself not to care.

Yi was in his arms, and the corners of Yu Chimu's mouth slightly hooked an arc, and then he grabbed the horse's belly and ran to the northwest.

I don't know if it was Wei Chimu's horse riding thousands of miles, or it was already close to Saibei, when the sun was close to the west, Crimson felt that a cool wind, mixed with fine sand, came straight towards the front of the person. Looking up, a round of red sun hangs on a dark "ribbon" from dark to light, and the smoke curls up to the blue sky in the distance, which is really a good scene of "lonely smoke in the desert, sunset on the long river".

Scarlet looked at it for a long time, unaware that the horse below her had already stopped, until it snorted, and she turned her head in a daze, and crashed into a pair of eyes that seemed to swallow her. After staring at each other like this for a long time, Scarlet Smoke felt a strange feeling in his heart for some reason, and his heart beat like a drum.

"Is it beautiful?" The man's thin lips opened lightly, I don't know if she was wrong, his handsome face looked a little soft in the afterglow of the setting sun.

An intoxicating smile gradually appeared on Scarlet Smoke's face, "Beauty, I've never seen such a beautiful scenery again." As she spoke, she looked back again, and saw that the sunset was getting closer and closer to the almost dry water belt, and the water in the air reflected each other, and there was a hint of desolation in the glamour.

Seeing this, Wei Chimu didn't urge her, but only led the horse and walked slowly. It wasn't until an inn that he stopped, he didn't know how many times he had seen such a side stopper, and every time he saw it, he had a different feeling, not to mention the eldest lady who grew up in Chaoge City like Scarlet Yan.

Huo Hemu had been waiting here for a long time, and from a distance, he saw his prince slowly coming here with a man and a horse, and the two looked at each other, and they had a tacit understanding not to break this quiet and beautiful atmosphere.

When the sunset completely set, Scarlet Smoke retracted her gaze, and saw not far away, except for Yu Chimu, Huo and Mu both looked at her with a smile, remembering that she had been hooked by this scene before, she couldn't help but blush, but she didn't say anything, and she was about to get off the horse.

Knowing from Fire and Wood that there was only one inn within a radius of several miles, the four of them repaired here, and the next morning, when the surroundings were still white, they set out on their way to the extremely cold land.

It is said to be an extremely cold place, but in fact, the place they are going to is located in the middle of the extremely cold land and belongs to the Duanheng Mountain Range. This mountain range is continuous, spanning half of the northern frontier, and the most important thing is that there is a dormant active volcano here, so no matter how cold the surrounding weather is, this mountain range is still surrounded by greenery, there is such a unique environment, all kinds of strange flowers and plants, and the beasts will gather here, and the dogwood blood lotus they are looking for this time was born here.

All these stories about the Duan Heng Mountains were all heard by Scarlet Smoke from books and from the mouth of his master, and he had not personally experienced it, so when such a green place appeared in front of him in the vast snowfield, Scarlet Smoke couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

The four of them stepped into the mountains together, looking around at the bushes, it was summer and in this extremely cold place, all kinds of flowers were competing with each other, and the tall trees almost obscured the sky above them.

Scarlet Yan quietly turned his head and forgot to glance at Wei Chimu beside him, and saw that his face was quite impressive, so he let go of a hanging heart slightly.

Fire and wood were at the forefront, and from time to time they cut off some of the branches and vines with their swords to make it easier for them to walk.

And at this moment, Scarlet Smoke suddenly felt a shock, she was shocked, looked at Wei Chi Mu, saw his solemn face, couldn't help but lean down, put his ear close to the ground, and burst into her ear, shocking her eardrum for a while, as far as the eye could see, the insects and ants quickly fled, and Scarlet Smoke's heart sank.

It seems that they are in luck!
