Ling Dongwu Gu held the forty coins in her hand and cheered, her laughter in the crowd was like a wind chime hanging in the spring breeze, crisp and pleasant.

She turned around and raised the money in front of Xiao Haotian as if offering a treasure, "Look, this is the money I earn myself, I can buy whatever I want, if you don't pay me in the future, I'll come here to earn it!" ”

Suddenly, an arrow broke through the air, stabbing straight into Ling Dongwu's chest with a swishing wind, only to hear a sound of muscle tearing, Xiao Haotian's body shook, he covered his left shoulder, bright red blood gushed down from his fingertips, it turned out that when the feather arrow was about to shoot Ling Dongwu's body, he blocked her chest like lightning.

"Lord Wang!"

"Big brother!"

"Haotian!"

Countless exclamations rang out at the same time!

***

Xiao Haotian ** on his upper body, his muscles were tangled, his bronzed skin was covered with large and small scars, the arrow was not deep, and the end of the arrow did not all pierce his left shoulder.

Ling Dongwu cried silently, seeing that the military medical officer was busy taking arrows for Xiao Haotian to treat his wounds, the military medical officer used a hot knife to cut the skin of his left shoulder and dig out the piercing arrows.

Xiao Haotian's face turned pale in an instant, and he broke out in a cold sweat, but he didn't even snort from beginning to end. This kind of knife is extremely sharp, so when it is cut on the flesh, it is unaware at first, and the dull pain that comes up slowly comes up, and it bursts out in an instant, and even the breathing is piercing.

Ling Dongwu finally couldn't help crying at this time, how could a person soberly bear such pain? It's all because of her, Xiao Haotian was injured because he saved her! Unconsciously, she sat at the head of the bed and held his right hand into a fist

。

Xiao Haotian tried his best to endure the severe pain, and smiled at Ling Dongwu bitterly: "What are you crying about!" ”

"It's all because of me, it's all about me! I'm too stupid to hurt you! Ling Dongwu choked up.

"In that case, how do you want to repay me! Let's make a promise! Xiao Haotian said half-truthfully.

Ling Dongwu stared at Xiao Haotian quietly with a pair of black and white eyes full of water, thought for a while, and nodded solemnly.

At noon, she still resented him for refusing to stand up for herself, but it turned out that it was not, he could block arrows for her, and disregard his own safety for her, which shows that he has his own in his heart, so she can also pretend to be him in her heart for a lifetime!

After Xiao Haotian was injured, Ling Dongwu lived in the outer room of his bedroom, so that it was convenient to take care of him.

In the middle of Xiao Haotian's room was a rosewood table carved with Rui beasts and flying birds, and several round stools with identical jadeites were placed next to the table.

The windows are wide and clean, and the patterns of the game shelves standing against the wall are sparse, and there are all kinds of rare antiques, porcelain, and the furnishings of different sizes in the room are all luxurious.

Xiao Haotian is a very cooperative patient, and every time he will drink all the medicinal juice in one gulp, he will not even frown, as if there is no bitter taste at all.

Ling Dongwu looked at the freshly boiled medicinal juice, and then at Xiao Haotian who was still asleep, and suddenly wanted to taste this medicine, whether the honey was stolen by the guards, otherwise how could he drink it so happily.

She couldn't help but secretly take a sip, so bitter that she almost screamed, hurriedly stuck out her tongue, picked up the water, and rinsed her mouth violently, God, why is this medicine so bitter!

Just as she was jumping up and down bitterly, she turned back unintentionally, and saw that Xiao Haotian had opened her phoenix eyes to look at her, with a forbearant smile on her face.

"You, you don't have a sense of taste, such a bitter medicine, why don't you hesitate to drink it at all?"

"Because I am the king of Zhennan, I can't get sick, and I must recover as soon as possible."

There was a melon ice bowl sent by Zhou Zegang on the table, Ling Dongwu saw that Xiao Haotian drank the medicine, this time she knew the bitterness of the medicine, and hurriedly held the ice bowl and sent it to his mouth.

The weather was hot, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on the tip of Ling Dongwu's nose, just waiting with bated breath for Xiao Haotian to eat melons.

At this time, in this place, it is not easy to get such a good melon ice bowl, Xiao Haotian knows her childish nature, and she is greedy, so she pushed the ice bowl in front of her, "It's hot, you eat!" ”

Ling Dongwu bit his lip lightly, "You just took the bitter medicine, you can eat it!" ”

"I'm not afraid of bitterness, and now that the bitter taste has passed, this thing is for children, and I don't eat it."

Ling Dongwu lowered her head, watching the ice gradually melt, the melon was green and yellow, cut very thin, faintly revealing a sweet fragrance like honey, she whispered: "Zhou Ze warned me when he sent the melon, saying that if I dare to steal it, he will make fun of me next time!" ”

Xiao Haotian looked at her pink little face, and his heart was soft, "Eat, if I let you eat, it's not a stealing meal!" ”

"Then let's eat together, okay!" Ling Dongwu's eyes were fixed on the melon, and he excitedly proposed.

Xiao Haotian couldn't bear to look at her disappointed eyes, and nodded, "Okay." ”

Ling Dongwu sent a piece of melon to Xiao Haotian's mouth with a fork, and put another piece into his mouth, "It's delicious, it's cold and sweet, it's delicious!" She only cared about the taste of smacking the melon, and didn't notice how ambiguous and intimate her and his actions were!

***

Xiao Haotian sat in the study with a thick gauze wrapped around his shoulders, and a man in black kneeled on the ground, "Lord Wang, please forgive me, the slave accidentally injured the prince!" ”

"I don't blame you, get up!" Xiao Haotian's voice was cold.

"Yes."

"Don't touch her again! Even if there are comrades around her, we have to use other methods to investigate. ”

"Yes, Lord Wang, in fact, if you don't block the arrow this time, I won't want her life! The arrow would have hit an inch below her heart. ”

"I know, how can I not believe that I am the archer of the Northern Desert, He Yaodun. This matter has nothing to do with you, I changed my mind temporarily. Xiao Haotian saw Ling Dongwu's frightened eyes again, he couldn't bear to see her so flustered, so helpless, he couldn't bear it, so he changed his own plan.

***

The news of Xiao Haotian's injury spread far and wide, and all the dignitaries, young masters, generals, envoys, and even some mysterious heroes of the rivers and lakes all came to the door to say goodbye.

This kind of vast travel really made Ling Dongwu stunned, and then Xiao Haotian couldn't bear to bother and had a headache, and finally took care of his illness, so that the military advisor Mo Li and the major general Zhou Ze came forward to entertain the guests, and he stole half a day to recuperate in the house.

In this way, it is hard for Ling Dongwu, Xiao Haotian has nothing to do to take a fancy to her, every day she must sit there like a primary school student, and learn to read and write, and Xiao Haotian became a hidden gentleman, and also got a smooth bamboo stick in her hand, as long as she is lazy, the bamboo stick will definitely hit her.

After learning the words for two days, Ling Dongwu understood why learning should start from the doll, because he really can't remember it when he is old!

On the first day, under Xiao Haotian's strict supervision, Ling Dongwu memorized 200 words desperately, and on the second day, she memorized 200 words in the first style. On the third day, Xiao Haotian took the test, and she only remembered more than 20 words, not only did she not remember yesterday, but she also almost forgot the day before yesterday.

She looked at Xiao Haotian's slightly narrowed phoenix eyes, and smirked a few times with a weak heart, and said, "It's not bad, I remember more than twenty of them, take your time!" ”

Xiao Haotian also smiled at her, "This king only knows that Yan Shi makes a high apprentice!" As he spoke, he didn't know when there was a smooth bamboo stick in his hand, grabbed Ling Dongwu's hand, and hit it on the palm of his hand a few times without hesitation.

"Ah, it hurts!" Ling Dongwu looked at Xiao Haotian with tears in his eyes.

"It's good to know that it hurts, and I won't forget so much next time!"

Sure enough, it was a strict master who was a high apprentice, and when Ling Dongwu accepted Xiao Haotian's exam again, he finally recognized all 100 words, Xiao Haotian smiled with satisfaction, he didn't know, Ling Dongwu even used his strength to eat!

On this day, Xiao Haotian was finally invited by Mo Li to go to the study, summer has arrived, the room is stuffy and unbearable, Ling Dongwu is lazy on the couch under the rattan trellis in front of the window, and gradually falls asleep.

When Xiao Haotian came back, he saw Ling Dongwu wearing only thin clothes and sleeping on the couch outside. Her body was slightly sideways, one hand was on her side, one was resting on her face, her cheeks were a beautiful curve down, and the gown on her upper body was withdrawn, revealing a piece of snow-white skin on her waist. Two smooth and lovely slender feet, two rows of small toes, enjoy the rare coolness of summer.

Although Xiao Haotian was used to seeing the world, he also felt red and at a loss for a while. Stunned for a moment, he turned his head, coughed, and turned his face away.

The courtyard was extremely quiet, only hearing the warbler chirping on the branches, Ling Dongwu was suddenly awakened by the sound of coughing, only to see the tall figure in front of the cool couch, the bright yellow robe was very familiar, with a faint and cool fragrance of sinking water. She knew that Xiao Haotian was back, so she sat up hurriedly, her skin was still flushed with sleepiness, her sideburns were slightly loose, and her clothes were half faded.

Xiao Haotian disguised his face, "If I'm not there for a while, you'll be lazy!" ”

Seeing that he was not holding a bamboo stick in his hand, Ling Dongwu became bold, and muttered and stood up from the cool collapse, "You can't take a break, you are more landlord than a landlord!" ”

"What is a landlord?"

"Ahh Nothing, I have hysteria! Ling Dongwu ran into the house as if he were running away.

Xiao Haotian then entered the house, but he didn't look at her, and said sharply: "Don't read and write yet!" ”

Ling Dongwu secretly pouted, he didn't know what he was doing outside, he came back and got angry with himself, sat down in front of the table unhappily, and suddenly saw the flute placed on it, and ran to Xiao Haotian's side, "Master, let's be illiterate today, I'll play a tune for you!" My flute is so good! "She's boasting.

Xiao Haotian already felt impetuous, but now she spoke to herself with a smiling face, exhaling like an orchid, making him slightly dizzy.

Seeing that he hesitated and refused to speak, Ling Dongwu reached out and grabbed his arm, shook it gently, and pleaded like a child: "Master, let me play a song for you!" ”

Her sideburns are already a little messy, and there is a wind flowing between the doors and windows on the side, blowing a few strands of hair, and her eyebrows are curling when they fall, lined with a pair of slightly squinted lacquered pupils, which has a different kind of lazy and gentle style. Xiao Haotian was disturbed by her, and pushed her hand away, "Okay, you can do whatever you want!" ”

Ling Dongwu succeeded in his treacherous plan, secretly rejoiced in his heart, picked up the flute and put it to his mouth, and blew it melodiously. She still blows the song 'Butterfly'.

At the end of the song, Ling Dongwu asked Xiao Haotian obediently, "Is it good?" ”

"Nice, what's the name of this tune you play?" This is something he wanted to ask her a long time ago.

"'Butterfly', also called 'Liang Zhu'."

"'Butterflies'?" Liang Zhu'? But what are the allusions? ”

"Yes, an absolutely classic allusion, a swan song for the ages! I'll tell you! Ling Dongwu's eyes sparkled, she just wanted to delay time indefinitely.

"Okay, let's hear it."
