Chapter 20: Spending the Night in a Cave

Zhang Yue hid in a dark corner of the cave that was invisible, and took off his robe. After a while, Zhang Yue bit her lip and ran back to Rumo.

Rumo was surprised by Zhang Yue's actions, saw her go and returned, and then saw the white cloth in her hand and the prominent female figure. Immediately understood, but there was not too much surprise, just a slight redden, and deep eyes dyed with a gleam.

Zhang Yue was stunned in his heart, he thought that Rumo would be surprised, but he didn't expect him to look like he knew it in his chest, could it be that he had already known?! For a moment, I was a little at a loss.

"That, this... This is our... Now the only... Clean... Zhang Yue stammered and explained, "I... I'm actually... Yes..., heyβ€”β€”, I'd better bandage you first. ”

Rumo looked at Zhang Yue a little narrowly, but did not speak. Zhang Yue hid his shy expression, tore the cloth into strips, carefully bandaged Rumo's wounds, and draped Rumo's dried coat on his body, and then sat by the fire with his head down sullenly roasting wild sweet potatoes. The cave was silent, except for the occasional crackling sound of branches burning in the fire. The aroma of sweet potatoes gradually spreads throughout the cave.

Ji Rumo's face, which was flushed with fever before, slowly faded, and his confused eyes gradually became brighter, and his body temperature should have dropped.

Zhang Yue was so upset, so embarrassed, should I say something? Thinking about whether to talk about some topics to break the embarrassment, the gang of men in black during the day were obviously coming for Rumo? Those people are well-trained, and they won't give up. When it is dawn, it is safest to bring Rumo back to the academy first. Right! Go back as soon as the morning dawns! Zhang Yue was about to say his thoughts, and his magnetic voice sounded,

"It smells so good! When is this sweet potato baked? ”

Zhang Yue rushed out, "When it's dawn!" ”

Rumo looked at her with a stunned expression. Zhang Yue reacted and explained with his hands dancing, "No, no, I'm not talking about this, the sweet potatoes have already been baked." She quickly took out a roasted sweet potato, stuck it in a twig and handed it to Rumo, then quickly turned around and bowed her head.

A gentle voice came from overhead, "Little Five? ”

"Ahh As soon as Zhang Yue raised his head, he was met by his deep eyes, and he tilted his head slightly,

"Are you shy?"

Zhang Yue's face flushed, "Who is shy?" In a hurry, he stood up, "There is nothing!" Yes, I'll admit, I... I am indeed a woman, and I didn't mean to hide it from you, in... After I came to the college, I was... It's always been like this. Master and Yuan Mo all knew. Besides, whether I'm a man or a woman doesn't affect us from being good friends. What am I shy of? ”

Seeing that her reaction was so cute, the corners of her mouth rose in a larger arc, he pursed his lips slightly, leaned back, looked at me steadily, and after a while, said slowly, "It's over." ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Yue agreed.

"I already knew you were a woman."

"Oh, what?! How could you? Zhang Yue was stunned.

"When I first saw you, although you were thinner than ordinary men, but it didn't make me suspicious, that day with you down the mountain to investigate the case, the examination of the woman's body, you are an unenlightened teenager, unraveling women's clothes so skillfully, and checking the woman in many places, without a trace of shyness and discomfort, I was suspicious, and then in order to lead out the murderer, you dressed as a woman in my face, the man pretended to be a woman, the appearance, the action can be imitated vividly, but the woman's natural shy look is how men can't learn, I confirmed that you are a daughter. Presumably, Mr. Huanchu let you dress up as a man in order to let you enter and exit the academy freely. In this case, I waited and watched what happened, and did not pierce you. ”

Zhang Yue was completely dumbfounded, "Rumo, you!" You're so amazing!! ”

Rumo couldn't help but feel very cute when she saw Zhang Yue's stupid appearance, and chuckled.

Zhang Yue also laughed stupidly. The atmosphere in the cave is no longer as awkward as it was just now,

"Rumo, although I'm a woman, we're still good friends, right? You can't deny me as a friend just because I'm a woman. ”

"How so?" Rumo gently tapped between Zhang Yue's eyebrows with the index finger of his right hand, "I won't deny you." He said seriously.

"Hey, hey!" Zhang Yue felt that the cold fingers of Rumo and the place on her forehead that were hit were very comfortable, and somewhere in her heart seemed to be touched, she touched the center of her eyebrows, and smiled stupidly.

"Is the name Zhang Xiaowu your original maiden name?"

"No, my surname is Zhang, that's right, Xiao Wu is the scientific name given to me by my master. My daughter's name is Yue'er, and when my mother said she was pregnant with me, she dreamed that the moon had burrowed into her belly. Then my father gave me the name Yue'er. ”

"Yue'er, it's very good!"

"Hehe, it's okay, I think it was maybe my mother didn't see it clearly when she dreamed, it's likely that a ball or something got into her stomach, and my mother saw it as the moon, otherwise, how do I always love to run around."

Rumo just took a bite of the sweet potato, and almost choked when she heard her words, coughing several times. Seeing Zhang Yue shook his head, he smiled helplessly.

"Rumo, why did those men in black kill you during the day? They are well-trained and highly skilled in martial arts, and they don't look like ordinary bandits. ”

A trace of complicated emotions flashed in the depths of Rumo's eyes, which were then replaced by indifference. "My family is very large, and I am the eldest son in the family, maybe I have offended some people, right?"

"Oh, then your situation in the capital is not very good. By the way, your retinue Ah Jing doesn't know what's going on? ”

"Don't worry, Ah Jing's martial arts are very good, if we are separated from him, he can let go of his hands and feet to deal with the enemy, even if he can't destroy the enemy, it is absolutely no problem to save his life. I just hope that there will be no accidents in the ancient paintings inscribed by your master. ”

Rumo paused thoughtfully,

"Then now do I call you Miss Yue'er, or the fifth brother?" Rumo's tone said with a slight hesitation. Hearing Rumo call her Yue'er for the first time, Zhang Yue's heart was hot for no reason.

"That, you still call me Xiaowu, I have been called Zhang Xiaowu for so many years, and I was suddenly called by my name, which is a little uncomfortable. In fact, you and Senior Brother Dongyang are best friends, and now we have become good friends again, so you can make me happy with anything, otherwise, you can call me Little Leather Ball! Zhang Yue smiled stupidly.

His inky black eyes were as bright as stars, and in an instant, a hint of apology floated, "Xiao Wu, I'm sorry, today's incident has affected you, and you have been involved in this assassination without any reason." ”

"Rumo, don't say this, we are all good friends, friends are in trouble, how can we ignore them, it's just that my little three-legged cat kung fu can't help you, but it has become a drag on you, and you have been injured to protect me."

Rumo said softly. "Actually, you've helped me a lot."

"Well, how can it, Rumo, you will really comfort me. By the way, although your wound is covered with herbs, it can only temporarily relieve the injury after all, so it is better to go out to the doctor for treatment as soon as possible. We'll leave here at dawn tomorrow, for safety, let's go back to the academy first, my master's medical skills are also very good! ”

Ji Rumo pondered for a moment, "Count the days, the people who came to pick me up at home should be coming soon, after the accident, Ah Jing will definitely contact them as soon as possible, it is estimated that they are already looking for our traces now." Tomorrow morning, let's find a way to go back to the academy first. ”

"Okay."

"Little Wu, have you eaten enough?"

"I'm full." Zhang Yue nodded.

"Then you should rest sooner."

"Good!" Zhang Yue nodded, and lay down on the haystack not far from Rumo, this haystack is very large, and it is soft and comfortable to lie on after a tired day.

Zhang Yue lay down for a while, and when he saw that Rumo was still sitting, he couldn't help but wonder, "Rumo, don't you lie down and sleep?" ”

"You go to sleep first, I'm worried that those men in black haven't left the mountain, I'll keep vigil tonight."

Zhang Yue got up after hearing this, "Rumo, I'll keep vigil!" You are wounded, how can you keep vigil? ”

"You're tired all day, you're a woman, you're weak, rest quickly."

"You see, after I knew that I was a woman, I despised me and didn't treat me as a good friend as an equal!" Zhang Yue pouted angrily.

A helpless smile gradually sprung up in his inky black eyes.

"Okay, okay, let you keep vigil, since you want to be equal, I will keep watch in the first half of the night, and you will keep watch in the second half of the night, you go to sleep first, and how about I wake you up later?"

"Okay." , Zhang Yue reluctantly agreed, and lay down again, "Rumo, you remember to call me, I sleep very deeply, so if I can't wake up, come and pinch me a few times and kick me." She muttered.

"Good!" Rumo's voice was smiling.

Zhang Yue was lying there, and her slender figure in the firelight came into view, and she couldn't help but ask softly.

"Rumo, does your wound still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

"Rumo, is it cold?"

"It's not cold!"

"Rumo, my roasted sweet potatoes are delicious, right?"

"Hmm."

"Rumo, when we go out tomorrow, I'll invite you to eat Sanjiu Sauce Duck in Duofulou in the city, right?"

"Hmm."

"Rumo, I will go to the capital to find you in the future, and you will also invite me to eat the famous roast duck in the capital, right?"

"Hmm."

"Rumo ......." Zhang Yue's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and he fell asleep unconsciously. Ji Rumo looked at Zhang Yue, who was unguarded and sleeping soundly, a faint smile appeared on his lips, and he slowly moved over, gently covered Zhang Yue's body with the coat he was wearing, and gently pushed a strand of broken hair from Zhang Yue's forehead to the hairline. When his fingers touched Zhang Yue's soft skin, there was an indescribable tingling sensation that spread all over his body, he was shocked, quickly gathered his mind, turned around and sat down, looked at the vigorous fire, and fell into deep thought.

Zhang Yue felt that he had slept for a long time and was very warm. When she woke up, the sunlight had already shone in along the hole, she rubbed her fluffy sleepy eyes, and found that she was wearing a coat like ink, and suddenly remembered that it was not the second half of the night that she should have kept vigil, she actually slept all night, she quickly sat up, and turned her head to find that the grass was empty, and the ink was gone!
