Chapter 40: Crying and Laughing

Ji Ying climbed into the woods with a roll, but after a night of running, her hands and feet were scratches caused by tree branches, and after soaking in the pool, the pain was terrible. She leaned against a big tree and sat down with her knees crossed.

Jiang Yichen turned around, he didn't know what to do. Say goodbye and meet in the future as if nothing happened? No, their danger has not been completely lifted, it is not safe to leave Ji Ying alone, besides, Ji Ying's crime of bullying the king is obvious, even if he doesn't care, Ji Ying will not be relieved; Then go over and comfort her, put your arms around her shoulders, and tell her that we are still brothers. Forehead...... It's so unrealistic. What to do? Jiang Yichen scratched his head and thought of an idea as he moved into the forest.

Ji Ying, who was sitting under the tree, was very sad and nervous. Does the fact that another person knows her identity mean that her efforts are about to be reduced to ashes and her ideals to be shattered? She knew from the beginning that once her identity was revealed, many people would be implicated, and many innocent friends would die because of her. Jiang Yichen, what will you do?

Jiang Yichen walked over slowly, and he saw Ji Ying sobbing quietly. Since he was a child, he has only seen his mother crying. When he was thirteen years old, he went to an ambush with his father, and was shot by the enemy in the battle, wounded in the armpit, and his mother sat at the head of his bed, took care of him all night and cried all night. But when he went to the battlefield again, his mother did not stop him. That's his calling, she said.

Jiang Yichen knew that Ji Ying was buried with many secrets, and these secrets made her ignorant and fearless, because everyone has a mission. He sat down next to Ji Ying and asked, "Scared?" ”

Ji Ying cried to herself and didn't answer.

"Crying for what? I don't think so. ”

Ji Ying sobbed and replied: "I can't cry myself!" ”

"Why the hell do you want to dress up as a man?"

Ji Ying didn't answer again.

"Looks like you have something very important to do. Something to do with Bowehou, right? ”

Ji Ying looked at Jiang Yichen with teary eyes, with the coquettish attitude of a little daughter: "You have already guessed it, right?" You're always talking to me. ”

Jiang Yichen lay lazily on the ground and said, "You are also pitiful." Not long after entering Beijing, he was calculated so many times, and he was still guilty of killing the head of a bully, you ......"

Before Jiang Yichen finished speaking, Ji Ying howled and cried: "I...... I also...... Felt...... Whining...... Myself...... Bad luck...... Woohoo......"

For a long time, the Ji Ying that Jiang Yichen saw was polite and pretending to be old, even if he was calculated, fell from the horse, and raised his injuries for a long time, he maintained a forbearance attitude and did not cry out in pain. I was lucky today. He watched the disheveled and scarred little girl in front of him crying unscrupulously in front of him, and somehow, he felt the urge to laugh, and he laughed out loud.

"You...... What are you laughing at...... Woo...... "Ji Ying wiped her tears while blaming the gloating guy next to her.

Jiang Yichen, who laughed loudly, sat up, leaned against the tree, and said, "It's okay, you cry, cry as much as you want!" ”

Ji Ying, who had been howling for most of the day, finished venting, finally stopped, wiped his face, tidied up his clothes, and said, "I'm crying." ”

It's like a great task has been completed, Ji Ying said it very solemnly, and Jiang Yichen burst into laughter again. Jiang Yichen said: "You really don't want to cry for a while? I haven't appreciated enough. ”

"The clothes were wet and cold. I'm going to get some firewood and grass to bake and roast clothes. Ji Ying said let's go.

"Hey, aren't you afraid I'll tell you about it?"

Ji Ying turned her face and said, "I just made a bet with myself, bet that you wouldn't say it." ”

Ji Ying disappeared into the dense forest, Jiang Yichen smiled ruffianly, and whispered, "When will you bet?" It's not good to learn - it's lucky. ”

The sky is already dark. When Ji Ying limped back to the place with the pitiful firewood and grass, she saw that Jiang Yichen had already given birth to a firewood team and was roasting a hare. There was a rack for drying clothes next to it. Ji Ying asked in surprise, "How did you do it?" It's fast! ”

Jiang Yichen didn't raise his head, and roasted rabbit meat by himself: "If I waited for you to come to work, I would have starved to death." ”

Ji Ying grimaced, piled up the firewood and grass she had picked up, and walked to the fire to roast it.

Jiang Yichen glanced at Ji Ying, pouted at the drying rack, and said, "Dry the wet clothes there." ”

Ji Ying didn't want to take off her clothes in front of a man, she shook her head and said, "You go, I don't need to." ”

Jiang Yichen smiled, and immediately recovered, he clapped his hands, shook off the soil on his body, and said while undressing: "Then I might as well be respectful." ”

Jiang Yichen took off his wet clothes layer by layer, and seeing that he was about to reveal his strong chest, Ji Ying hurriedly covered his eyes and shouted: "Jiang Yichen, don't take it off again!" ”

Jiang Yichen pointed to the drying rack and said, "There is such a big place here, just to dry clothes." Anyway, if you don't need to, I'm afraid of wasting. ”

"I use it! I can't use it! "Ji Ying said goodbye.

Jiang Yichen put on his underwear, sat back down, and continued to barbecue. Ji Ying obediently took off the outermost layer of clothes and came back to roast the fire very uncomfortably.

"Do you know where we are now?" Ji Ying asked.

"I've been running in the dark for so long, how do you know."

"What then?"

"It's okay, when the sun is all out, we'll know the direction, and we'll go out when the time comes."

Jiang Yichen has experienced a lot of days like this, and he is not worried at all, and such a calm and calm Jiang Yichen makes Ji Ying feel extremely down-to-earth.

Jiang Yichen roasted the rabbit and tore off a rabbit leg to give to Ji Ying. After a night of desperate tossing, Ji Ying's chest was already hungry and pressed against her back, so she was unceremonious, and she took it and gnawed it. The soft and fragrant rabbit meat is held in the mouth, moisturizing every taste bud on the tip of the tongue. Ji Ying devoured and ate extremely satisfied.

Jiang Yichen ate quite well, he slowly enjoyed the rabbit meat in his hand, and after Ji Ying swallowed the rabbit leg, he also sent the next rabbit leg in time.

Ji Ying munched unceremoniously. Jiang Yichen was interested, and asked seriously: "Ji Ying, why do you say that rabbits have four legs?" ”

Ji Ying ate Zhengxiang, and didn't think about it, and replied casually: "I don't know." It's that long. ”

"Let me tell you, there's an interesting story in it." Jiang Yichen pretended to be mysterious and said, "A long, long time ago, rabbits still walked on two legs. At that time, there was a kind of eagle in the world, which looked like a chicken. This type of eagle is especially fond of preying on rabbits. So one day, the leader of the rabbit told his rabbit people that in the future, they should run on four legs, run faster, and don't be caught by the chicken eagle (Ji Ying), otherwise they will be eaten to the scum! ”

What kind of story is this, clearly teasing Ji Ying. Ji Ying didn't have time to swallow a mouthful of rabbit meat, and squirted out with a poof. She took the gnawed bones and threw them at Jiang Yichen. Jiang Yichen's eyes were quick, he dodged sideways, and laughed and put it away. Ji Ying chased after him and threatened to pick Jiang Yichen's skin, but after chasing two steps, he laughed. In the quiet woods, because of the hearty laughter, countless flying insects and small birds flew up.

After sitting for a while, the clothes were almost baked, and the sky was bright, Jiang Yichen and Ji Ying put out the fire, got dressed, and walked back.

"Ji Ying," Jiang Yichen called, "can you still walk?" ”

Ji Ying didn't want to hold Jiang Yichen back anymore, so she replied stubbornly: "You can move." ”

Jiang Yichen handed the long sword to Ji Ying, and Ji Ying instinctively took it. Jiang Yichen walked in front of Ji Ying and said, "I'll carry you away." ”

"Huh? No, no, no. Ji Ying took two steps back.

"Your hands and feet are scratched and soaked in water, I have seen it. Don't be pushy. ”

Ji Ying's heart was warm, but she was still shy: "It's okay with this little injury." ”

Jiang Yichen turned his back to Ji Ying, half-squatted and said: "In the past, when the army was marching and fighting, when there was a lack of stretchers, I often carried wounded soldiers on my back. Hurry up, we need to hurry back to the city. ”

Ji Ying thought to herself, it seemed that Jiang Yichen was just comparing her to a wounded soldier. Everyone is a brother, so maybe you don't have to stick to the details. What's more, her wound did hurt badly, so she simply accepted his kindness. She encouraged herself and hugged Jiang Yichen from behind her.

Jiang Yichen, who carried Ji Ying on his back, regretted it for a moment, because he realized that Ji Ying was indeed different from the wounded people he had carried before. Whether the wounded wore armor or not, their bodies appeared to be very strong, especially the upper body, which was hard and heavy.

But Ji Ying is not. Ji Ying was very light, and his soft upper body was close to his broad back, making him sluggish for a moment. There was a fragrance on her body, not the pungent scent of any powder, not the sweet scent of rouge gouache, not the contrived scent of scrolls, nor any kind of fragrance on his mother's body that soothed his pain. The fragrance emanating from Ji Ying's body is indescribable, but it can make him unconsciously attracted to it.

At first, the two of them were very embarrassed, and they said a few words without words, and then Jiang Yichen spoke again, but Ji Ying didn't answer, and when he looked up, Ji Ying was lying on his shoulder, tilting his head and sleeping, and the hair waterfall floated down Ji Ying's slender eyebrows, fair face and thin shoulders, and floated to his shoulders, arms and back, and some naughty broken hair flew with the cool wind in the early morning.

Ji Ying's breath was long and soft. The warm air flow swept across Jiang Yichen's neck, making him feel numb. Jiang Yichen shook his shoulders slightly, and Ji Ying didn't wake up. It seems that this guy is really tired.

The sun shone in on them, as if to show them the way. After walking for most of the day, Jiang Yichen saw the official road, and the gate of the capital was faintly visible.

At this moment, the sound of rustling sounded in the woods again. Last night's killers were waiting for the rabbits.
