Chapter 121: Tired and sick
"Of course you want to go, why don't you go?" Gu Wanwan replied casually, but after seeing Bai Wutong's suddenly changed expression, she couldn't help but turn back. "What? You don't want to go to the East China Sea anymore? ”
Going to the East China Sea to get mermaid tears, this is the itinerary they planned early in the morning, but looking at Bai Wutong's expression at the moment, it seems that he has something else in mind.
"It's not!" Bai Wutong shook his head, he wanted to help Gu Wanwan find the mermaid tears in the East China Sea more than anyone else, but now he had to think about a problem.
"Princess, do you remember yesterday when you were talking in the camp and someone eavesdropped on it outside?"
Gu Wanwan nodded, of course she remembered! If it weren't for the fact that someone had eavesdropped and knew that their whereabouts had been leaked, they wouldn't have fled immediately. It's just that at this moment, Bai Wutong suddenly mentioned this matter to say something?
Under Gu Wanwan's confused gaze, Bai Wutong said in a deep voice: "Maybe our whereabouts have already been known by Yan Wushuang, if we go to the East China Sea at this moment, it will definitely be very dangerous." ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence all around. After being silent for a long time, Gu Wanwan looked at Bai Wutong again and asked him, "Are you afraid of danger?" ”
"Of course not! Weichen was only afraid of the princess...... "In order to restore the country, he has long put his life and death on the line, and he is ready to make sacrifices at any time." But he couldn't let Gu Wanwan go on an adventure with him.
"That's it!" Interrupting Bai Wutong's unfinished words, Gu Wanwan's expression became more firm than ever, "Let's leave for the East China Sea immediately." ”
"Let's wait a little longer! After Yan Wushuang's men and horses leave, it's not too late for us to leave! "As it stands, it's safe to do that.
"Can't wait any longer! Yan Wushuang will definitely go to the East China Sea, and when the time comes, he will be given a first step, and he will snatch the merman's tears, and then it will be over! Looking at Bai Wutong's hesitant appearance, Gu Wanwan was angry.
There is no need to guess at all, she also knows that Yan Wushuang is now rushing in the direction of the East China Sea, that guy who is eager for quick success, how could he not want to get the merman tears? If they go too late and the treasure falls into his hands, it will be too late to regret it.
"No, princess, Weichen can't let you put yourself in danger." Bai Wutong shook his head, and his gaze at Gu Wanwan was also as firm as casting.
Now that Gu Wanwan has determined that Yan Wushuang will go to the East China Sea, how can he let Gu Wanwan jump into the tiger's mouth?
"Who said I had to be in danger?" Gu Wanwan gave him a fierce look, "Yan Wushuang took so many people, stopped and rested all the way, and when he arrived in the East China Sea, I don't know what year and month it will be." The two of us, no burden, hurry up, we must get the mermaid tears before them. ”
"But ......" Bai Wutong was obviously moved by Gu Wanwan's words, and felt that it made sense, but when he thought of Gu Wanwan's safety, he hesitated again.
"Don't be! Yan Wushuang is chasing after so many people and horses, if we don't leave now, it will be really dangerous! Without waiting for Bai Wutong to say anything, Gu Wanwan had already pulled him and ran up.
Two days later, the birds sent out by the white sycamore flew back. First of all, the Dark Pavilion troops led by Zhang Han also encountered the same situation as them, but because they were all agile people, no one was injured.
In comparison, the news from Zhang Li's side is sad. Because the white spirit beast was flying at a high altitude at that time, no one thought that something like that would happen, so except for Zhang Li, all of them were injured, and those who were weaker had already gone.
"Damn! I, Gu Wanwan, swore that I would never let go of the person who poisoned him. Gu Wanwan clenched her fists and said hatefully.
Yan Wushuang actually did such a despicable and shameful thing for his own interests, from now on, he is already her enemy!
"The princess is angry, we will definitely avenge this revenge!" Bai Wutong comforted Gu Wanwan, her face was as cold as water.
In the evening, he received another piece of news that Yan Wushuang's men were rushing here, and it seemed that he was really going to the East China Sea.
If Yan Wushuang didn't go to the East China Sea, she didn't have to go to the East China Sea, but now that she had determined that Yan Wushuang's direction was the East China Sea, she had to go! Saying nothing can't let him get the merman's tears, otherwise he will be like a tiger, and it will be even more difficult to regain the territory of the Xiliang Women's Kingdom from him.
In order to rush to the East China Sea before Yan Wushuang, Gu Wanwan and Bai Wutong hurried day and night, and finally fell ill.
Bai Wutong immediately took her to Yilu to see a doctor, and the doctor told him that Gu Wanwan was overtired and exhausted because she was traveling overnight, so she must have a good rest. So Bai Wutong found an inn nearby to live, but he didn't think that this stay was half a month.
"It's ...... Where? ”
After Gu Wanwan woke up, she found herself in a strange room, she panicked, and instinctively jumped out of bed, but almost fell to the ground because of her dizziness.
Bai Wutong happened to come in with a medicine bowl, and hurriedly came over to help her when she saw it: "Princess, you are sick, don't move, have a good rest." ”
"What is this place?" Seeing that it was Bai Wutong, Gu Wanwan stabilized her mood a little, and let him lie back on the bed.
"This is the Auspicious Inn! The doctor said that you are not very sick and that you need to recuperate. Bai Wutong explained.
"How can this be? We still have to go to the East China Sea, Yan Wushuang's people are rushing behind, we can't let him get to the ...... first," Gu Wanwan said and wanted to get out of bed again.
"Princess......" Bai Wutong called in a deep voice, staring at her fixedly, "Don't think about taking treasures anymore, nothing is more important than your life!" ”
"I'm fine, don't listen to the doctor, he's making a fuss, I can keep going...... "Cough cough cough cough ......" Seeing Bai Wutong blocking him, Gu Wanwan had no choice but to beg him softly.
But her weak body betrayed her, and her pale face was unusually red with constant coughing.
Bai Wutong patted her back lightly and said distressedly: "Princess, even if the treasure is really taken away by Yan Wushuang, we can find another way!" But you must not have any problems! Your body collapsed before you reached the East China Sea, how can you take the treasure then? ”
Gu Wanwan was blocked and had nothing to say, indeed, her broken body now, even if she arrived in the East China Sea, what if the mermaid tears were in front of her? It's not that you don't have the strength to take it, and you watch Yan Wushuang take it? Rather than this, it is better to take care of your body first.
But when she thought of her resting like this and being preempted by Yan Wushuang, she was still very unwilling in her heart.
Bai Wutong saw the unwillingness in her eyes, and then persuaded: "Princess, don't worry so much first. In fact, Weichen has already calculated, we have been working day and night before, braving the rain and traveling to throw Yan Wushuang's team far away, so we will not make a mistake here. ”
"Seriously?" Hearing this, Gu Wanwan looked up at him suspiciously.
"When did Wechen cheat on the princess?" Bai Wutong first asked rhetorically, and seeing that Gu Wanwan was silent, he said again, "If the princess doesn't believe it, you can calculate it yourself, and you will know that we have gone far away." ”
Gu Wanwan's face was very different, these days, she only cared about blindly hurrying, and she didn't calculate the time at all. But she should believe Bai Wutong's, Bai Wutong has no reason to lie to her.
"And how far is it from the East China Sea?" It's ridiculous not knowing how far to go, and she doesn't know how far she has to go.
"According to Weichen's estimate, you can reach the East China Sea in another month." Bai Wutong said softly, "After the princess recovers here, she can take the East China Sea directly." ”
"That's right!" Gu Wanwan nodded, she finally compromised, and decided to recover here first, and after she had the strength, she could rush to the East China Sea in one go, and at that time, she must have a good competition with Yan Wushuang.
It's night, and it's as cool as water.
Yan Wushuang put down the book in his hand, raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhang Xun who entered the room, and his voice was cold: "Where are you?" ”
"Back to the prince, the princess and Bai Wutong have reached the town of the northern frontier." Zhang Xun knelt on the ground and said.
"Without the white spirit beast to travel, it is still so fast." The corners of Yan Wushuang's mouth twitched, full of mockery, "In a few months, it will be time to go to the East China Sea, right?" ”
"It stands to reason that it is, but for now, the princess's trip may be delayed." Zhang Xun gave Yan Wushuang an unexpected answer.
"Oh?" Yan Wushuang raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "What is the reason?" "From the beginning to the present, although there is no spirit beast as a substitute, Gu Wanwan is still walking fast, and it is said that he is rushing sleeplessly.
Isn't it so anxious to arrive in the East China Sea earlier and take the mermaid tears first? Why is the trip suddenly delayed?
"Back to the prince, the princess was physically and mentally exhausted because she traveled day and night, so she fell ill and had to find an inn to recuperate, so the trip would be delayed. As long as the people hurry up, they will definitely be able to catch up with the princess......"
Zhang Xun's words, Yan Wushuang couldn't listen to them anymore. When he heard that Gu Wanwan was sick, his eyebrows jumped, and the smile on his face completely froze, replaced by anger.
"You said she was sick?" Yan Wushuang interrupted Zhang Xun's words.
"Yes." Zhang Xun's voice became quieter in reply, as he clearly sensed how terrifying the cold aura emanating from Yan Wushuang's body was.
"What a bastard!" Yan Wushuang shouted angrily, and the things on the table were swept to the ground by his sleeves.
The voice was not small, so startled that Zhang Xun trembled, and hurriedly said: "The prince is angry!" ”
"Stand down!" Yan Wushuang scolded angrily. Zhang Xun hurriedly got up and retreated.
When he was the only one in the house, his eyes became colder and colder as he looked out the window at the night.
In order to avoid herself, she rushed away regardless of her body, so much so that she fell ill! She was obviously self-inflicted, why didn't he have a trace of pleasure? Or so angry?
Gu Wanwan, you woman, let this king say how are you good?
I don't know if God is helping, on the third day of their stay at the inn, Bai Wutong received a report from the spirit bird that Yan Wushuang actually returned to Nanyue with the team.
After learning the good news, Bai Wutong immediately reciprocated to Gu Wanwan, wanting her to be happy and recuperate with peace of mind.
He knew that although Gu Wanwan listened to his advice to recuperate here, his mind had already rushed to the road, and he couldn't wait to put on his wings and fly by himself.
If she knew that Yan Wushuang had already led the troops back, she would no longer have the urgency to get ahead of Yan Wushuang, and she would be very happy when she relaxed.
