The night of the full moon.

The nights in the desert are much colder than expected.

Huo Wu sat in the phoenix, lifted the corner of the veil, glanced at the white moon in the sky, put it down again, and looked down at the morning light lying on his lap.

The morning light stretches out like a cat in the sun, lying quietly in the arms of Fire Dance. Her eyes were open, and her inky pupils were much darker than usual, like two bottomless whirlpools, staring at one place in silence and stiffness, motionless. After a long time, she let out a soft cry, as if to exhale pain. Suddenly, she raised her hand and stroked it around her slender neck.

Huo Wu looked at the blue and red veins on the back of her white hand trembling, as if they were constantly expanding to the sides, but there was no fixed gaze, everything seemed to be just her own illusion.

Fire Dance bit her lip.

"Your Highness." She called softly.

The morning light was silent for a long time, and the pale hand hung down softly.

"Si Qian." She said softly.

Si Qian, who was standing outside the phoenix, heard the sound and responded in a low voice:

"Yes."

Chenguang didn't say anything, but Si Qian seemed to understand, turned around, and walked silently towards the dense forest on the south side.

……

Late at night, Fu Li walked into the tent and whispered a few words beside Shen Run.

Shen Run frowned, was silent for a moment, stood up, and walked towards the territory of Feng Yingguo, before he walked in front of Feng Ying, a pretty girl greeted him, and Ying Ying saluted:

"His Royal Highness King Rong."

Shen Run remembered that she was one of the four dowries except for Huo Wu, and as for which one of the seven, eighty or ninety it was, he couldn't tell which one.

"Where's the princess?" He asked, staring at her face.

"The princess is bathing in the hot springs to the south." Si Shi did not hesitate for a moment, and replied respectfully.

"Who are the people who are with you?"

"Fire Dance and the others, and twenty guards."

"How long have you been there?" Shen Run hooked his lips and asked with a smile.

"Not long."

Shen Run's face was slightly gloomy, and he said with a smile:

"A slave also wants to lie to this king, you are so bold."

Si Shi hurriedly knelt down and urgently defended:

"His Royal Highness King Rong is angry, the slave maid really thinks that Her Royal Highness the princess has not been there for too long!"

Shen Run stared at her panicked look for a while, until Si Shi trembled a little, he spoke, and said lightly:

"Lead the way."

Si Shiyi was stunned: "His Royal Highness King Rong, lead the way?" ”

"Take this king to your princess." Shen Run replied lightly, and then he smiled very kindly, "If you lead the wrong way, this king will kill you first." ”

Si Shi trembled with fright, and said forcefully: "His Royal Highness King Rong, His Royal Highnesses the Duke and Princess are bathing......"

"Lead the way." Shen Run interrupted her in a deep voice before she could finish speaking.

Si Shi trembled, and had to respond: "Yes." ”

Shen Run explained Fu Li in a low voice.

Si Shizhan stood up tremblingly, and glanced at Fu Li with his residual light, Fu Li stood next to Feng Yuan, without any intention of moving.

Si Shi turned around, led the way in front, and walked towards the dense forest on the south side of the garrison. The silver moonlight shone obliquely on her face, and at that moment, the terrified face was like a lifeless mask, pale as a ghost.

……

This way Shen Run walked very smoothly, so smooth that nothing happened, but he always felt that something was not right.

The first thing I met was the twenty guards guarding the perimeter, and when they saw him, they knelt down and said goodbye.

In the dense forest under the dark night, the north wind howled, and the moon shadow was like frost, infinitely magnifying the breath on these guards.

Shen Run had an uncomfortable feeling for everyone brought by the morning light, including these guards.

If it was just delicate and delicate like a guard, Shen Run wouldn't care, he didn't expect the strength of the people of the Feng Ming Kingdom. But not only that, Shen Run felt that these people were lifeless, this kind of lifelessness did not mean that they had no heat and courage, it was completely literal, they were like dead people who could act, they couldn't feel the slightest bit of fresh vitality, clammy and cold, gloomy, and full of rotten breath, which made Shen Run very uncomfortable.

These people did not stop them, and generously got out of the way and let Shen Run move forward.

Shen Run crossed them, walked straight all the way, there was indeed a hot spring in front of him, he felt a burst of moist and warm water vapor from a distance, and when he came out of the dense forest, he was greeted by a green meadow and a natural hot spring pool, the water of the pool was foggy, and he could vaguely see two girls soaking in it next to him, only showing two heads.

There were three maids standing by the hot spring pool, and when they heard the sound, they turned their heads, and when they saw that it was him, they came up and knelt down quickly, and said in unison:

"His Royal Highness King Rong!"

As soon as the voice fell, Shen Run saw Huo Wu who was soaked in the pool water turn his head, obviously startled, knowing that the other party could only see her head, he still subconsciously dived into the water, and quickly grabbed the long towel placed on the stone and covered the neck of the person next to him.

"His Royal Highness King Rong!" She whispered.

Shen Run was a little embarrassed, he didn't want to see the other party take a bath, but his sensitivity made him feel a little wrong.

He didn't go any further, looking at the man who was soaking motionless in the hot spring with his back to him.

Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, Huo Wu kept staring at the morning light, a little anxious, and wrapped the morning light more tightly.

"Her Royal Highness the princess was tired and fell asleep just now." She explained to Shen Run.

Shen Run didn't look at her, stared at the back of Chen's Li, and after a long time, he opened his mouth and said lightly:

"Wake her up and let her come out, she will get dizzy after soaking in the hot spring for a long time."

"His Royal Highness King Rong, once Her Royal Highness falls asleep, she will not wake up, please Your Royal Highness King Rong avoid it first, and the slave will take His Highness back."

Shen Run glanced at Huo Wu, paused, and then turned around and walked in the direction he came from, and when he walked to the entrance of the dense forest, he suddenly stopped, turned his head and asked Si Qi:

"Where did Si Qian go?"

"First he stayed outside, and then His Highness told him to go back first." Si Qi said frankly.

Shen Run didn't say anything more, glanced at Si Qi, turned around, and went back the way he came.

After making sure that Shen Run had gone away, Si Qi and the others on the shore immediately ran to the hot spring pool, Huo Wu had already stood up, her petticoat was soaked in water, and it became very heavy, she didn't care about this, and bent down to fish out the morning light from the water.

The snow-white dress could not stop dripping, and the morning light slept pale in the crook of the fire dance, and the bright moonlight shone on her, illuminating the dark red dripping from the neckline to the chest.

Huo Wu took the big sword from Si Qi's hand, quickly wrapped the morning light, skillfully held it in his arms, covered her face with his hood as much as possible, and then walked quickly in the direction where the team was stationed.

Si Qi felt a trace of murderous aura from her.

Shen Run returned to the camp, and sure enough, he saw Si Qian standing next to Feng Yuan. Fu Li greeted him and whispered to him that Si Qian came back alone not long after he left, and he didn't notice anything unusual.

Shen Run glanced at Si Qian.

After Si Qian bowed coldly, he half-lowered his head and did not make any more unnecessary movements.

Shen Run stared at him and thought for a moment, didn't speak, took a step, and walked towards his tent.
