The firelight lit up, and the small cave seemed to be warm, Mu Lingkong rubbed his hands and looked sideways at Feng Mingzhen.

Feng Mingzhen was half-leaning on the stone wall of the cave, his eyes lowered, as if he was recuperating, and his half-wet hair spread out from the jade crown and hung down on the side of his neck.

Mu Lingkong turned his head and looked at the fire for a long time before turning around and walking in front of Feng Mingzhen and half-squatting down, "Do you want to take off your clothes and bake them?" I'm afraid I'll catch a cold if I wear wet clothes! ”

Feng Mingzhen raised his head, showed a miserable white smile, and said a little apologetically, "I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you to help, I'm very stiff now!" ”

Only then did Mu Lingkong notice that Feng Mingzhen's posture against the wall had not changed.

Her face changed slightly, and she didn't care about the difference between men and women, she reached out to pick up Feng Mingzhen's clothes.

Feng Mingzhen just half-leaned on the stone wall, let her untie her belt, remove her outer robe and underwear, and finally reveal her strong chest, with distinct abdominal muscles, under the light of the fire, there was a jade-like luster, like the best craftsmen carefully polished.

Unfortunately, the wound on the shoulder spoiled this delicate beauty, and in addition to this, there were many large and small scars, which seemed to be old wounds.

Mu Lingkong stretched out a finger, and the ghost envoy gently stroked these scars, Feng Mingzhen's eyes trembled slightly, and he raised his eyes to look at her, his eyes were warm, and she hurriedly withdrew her fingers as if she had just woken up from a big dream, and sat down by the fire to bake her clothes.

But his mind couldn't be retracted, and he couldn't help asking, "Is this the injury you fell from leading your troops to fight?" ”

Feng Mingzhen raised his lips and smiled, obviously weak, this smile brought out a bit of sly teasing, "What?" Do you care about me? ”

Mu Lingkong stopped flipping his clothes, raised his head and said seriously, "Yes, I care about you." ”

Feng Mingzhen was actually a little funny, seeing Mu Lingkong answering so seriously, he restrained his thoughts, lowered his eyes and looked at the scars on his body for a moment, and when he raised his eyes again, his expression was a little softer and reminiscing.

"This was the winter of the year my mother died, and when Ciro came to attack, I was sent to the frontier by a holy decree of my father to lead troops against the enemy. At that time, the whole person was confused, charging and fighting, it seemed that any pain and sadness could be covered by hot blood, insensitive, and many injuries were left at that time. In the next few years, I was recalled to Chasing Cloud City, but I began to pamper and slack off a lot, but the occasional assassination couldn't hurt me. ”

Such a difficult life in the cracks, being said so lightly by him, Mu Lingkong felt his heart heavy. It can be imagined that a fifteen-year-old boy experienced the pain of losing his mother, and was sent to the border by his father, and His Royal Highness the Prince, who was honored and jade, suddenly had to be with the sword forest and sword rain, how desperate and sad it was.

Feng Mingzhen seemed to feel Mu Lingkong's low mood, and patted her head with a smile, "It's just a matter of youth, and now it's an unforgettable experience in the army!" ”

He seemed to regain some strength at this moment, and moved towards the fire to take his clothes, "I'll do it myself!" You're soaking wet, so bake it! ”

Mu Lingkong hesitated for a moment, Feng Mingzhen had already taken his clothes, hung them up with roots and branches, and put them on the side of the fire, and he had already turned sideways with a polite manner.

Wet clothes are really uncomfortable to wear, Mu Lingkong is no longer hypocritical, take off his coat and bake it first.

In the cave, for a while, only the occasional "crackling" sound of firewood burning in the fire was heard, and the two were silent to each other, not embarrassed, but had a feeling of quiet years.

After Mu Lingkong waited for the clothes to dry and put on, she glanced back at Feng Mingzhen, and saw that he was already sleeping against the stone wall, she frowned, feeling that something was not right, so she stepped forward lightly, and from a distance, she could already feel the abnormal body temperature on Feng Mingzhen's body, and reached out to touch his forehead, which was really hot like fire.

They were now in the wilderness, and it was impossible to find medicine for Feng Mingzhen, so Mu Lingkong had to put on his dried clothes first, and then wrapped him tightly with a cloak before he walked out of the cave.

Outside the cave, it was icy and snowy, and the cold wind was raging, Mu Lingkong shrunk his neck, took a rag torn off his robe, wrapped a bag of snow, and returned to the cave.

In the weather where dripping water turned into ice, as soon as the ice and snow touched Feng Mingzhen's forehead, it slowly melted into water, and Mu Lingkong had to go out over and over again to reload the snow to cool down Feng Mingzhen.

Fortunately, when the sky was bright, Feng Mingzhen's body temperature finally dropped. She breathed a sigh of relief and fell asleep next to him against the stone wall.

This sleep was not comforting, sometimes dreaming of being chased and killed in the snow, sometimes suffocating after jumping into the Huaishui, until she was slowly put down and covered with a particularly warm cloak, she fell into a deep sleep.

When I woke up again, it was already bright outside the cave, and the snowstorm that had been raging all night had stopped, and everything was snow-white.

Feng Mingzhen fell crookedly next to her, still asleep, but the cloak that covered him before had been moved to him, thinking that he had woken up halfway.

She sat in place wrapped in a cloak for a while, leaned over and touched Feng Mingzhen's forehead, and after making sure that there was no fever, she began to think about what to do next.

At this moment, a faint human voice suddenly came from outside the cave, she looked abrupt, got up and took Feng Mingzhen's long sword, and protected Feng Mingzhen in front of her.

The voices outside became clearer and clearer, and finally I could hear the voices of a man and a woman, the male voice was a little old, but the female voice was very young and lively, and was chirping, "Dad, I remember that there is a cave in front of me, let's go in and rest for a while!" ”

It seemed that it was just an ordinary hunter, but Mu Lingkong did not relax, he still clenched his long sword, staring at the entrance of the cave vigilantly, and at this moment, a warm hand held her hand that held the hilt of the sword.

The first to come was a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard and a dark face, he saw Mu Lingkong and the two in the cave, he was stunned at first, and before he could speak, the girl who came in was already shouting, "Dad, what's wrong?" After speaking, he noticed the two people in the cave.

Feng Mingzhen was lying on the hay, his eyes closed, as if he had fainted, while Mu Lingkong was half-squatting in front of Feng Mingzhen, with the horizontal sword in front of him, obviously in a defensive posture.

The four of them looked at each other, and at this moment, no one spoke.

Or the girl with a loud voice opened her mouth first, "Who are you?" How is it here? ”

She glanced at Mu Lingkong a few times, and then looked at Feng Mingzhen lying on the ground, but unfortunately he was half blocked by Mu Lingkong, and he couldn't see it really.

Mu Lingkong's posture remained unchanged, and he asked lightly, "Who are you, there are people in this cave, if you want to rest, please take the trouble to move elsewhere!" Although this was polite, the tone was very unceremonious and a little domineering.
