The black halberd would report the news from the wolf soldiers to Qing Xue every day, and at this moment, with Ding Qi interpreting by his side, he could clearly know any news.

As long as the wolf soldiers did not find Mu Chun in the corpses transported, Qing Xue would be at ease again. It's just that the road is far away, and although the wolf soldiers all use roars to transmit, there is not much timeliness for the news to reach Qing Xue's ears.

Therefore, they can only race against time as much as possible, and if they can arrive a moment earlier, they can make Mu Chun less dangerous.

Since Ma Boiling was discovered, Ding Qi no longer had the means to force Qingxue to rest. Therefore, for four consecutive days, except for changing horses and coachmen, or going down to rest when replenishing dry food, they basically spent time in the carriage.

In such a day and night journey, the travel speed can indeed be much faster, but the horses can be replaced, and the coachman can also be replaced, but Qingxue and Ding Qi are suffering from bumps and torments day after day. Coupled with the climate, I can't stand it even if I am beaten with iron. Qing Xue only felt that her mouth was dry, her head was getting heavier and heavier, and she was groggy and unable to speak.

Ding Qi noticed her abnormality and reached out to her forehead and touched it. The hot temperature reached the palm of his hand, and his brow furrowed.

"You've got a fever!" When he withdrew his hand, he saw that Qing Xue's cheeks had burned crimson.

Qing Xue opened her eyes in a daze and patted the medicine box on her side: "There is medicine in it, you can help me take it out, and it will be fine if you eat it, you can't stop." ”

"You're still going to stop burning like this?" Ding Qi said as he rummaged through the medicine box for the medicine bottle for treating fever. The medicine bottles were pasted with notes written on them, so it was not difficult to find them, Ding Qi took two pills according to the instructions on the paper and fed them to Qing Xue's mouth, and then pulled the stopper of the sheepskin water bag and let her swallow the water.

Because of the bumps in the carriage, Qingxue was choked and coughed violently, Ding Qi could only help her pat her back, and when the air was smooth, she fell on Ding Qi in a daze.

Ding Qi could only untie the fox fur he was wearing on his body, wrap her tightly and hold her in his arms. At this moment, it is not realistic to stop and rest even if there is no shop in front of the village and no store, Ding Qi can only tell the coachman to speed up and rush to the next post station before dark as much as possible, so that Qingxue can rest and recuperate.

The carriage galloped all the way, and before evening the sky suddenly began to drift with snow, and as the temperature became colder, the road began to freeze, and the horses' hooves often slipped in the snow, and the wheels began to disobey.

The driver had to slow down again just in case. They slipped in three steps until it was completely dark, and they still couldn't get to the station.

The road ahead was already a little unclear, the coachman could only restrain the horse's head, and asked: "Childe, the road is slippery after dark, I am afraid that there will be danger if I continue to walk, there is a broken temple next to it, or go inside to rest for a night and then walk!" ”

"It's good!" Ding Qi replied, looking at Qing Xue lying in her arms at the moment, her condition did not seem to have improved in the slightest, her forehead was still hot, her eyes were closed, and she occasionally talked nonsense.

After the coachman drove the carriage to the gate of the broken temple, Ding Qicai hugged Qingxue off the carriage. The cold wind swept across his cheeks, like the tip of a sharp knife scraping against his skin.

Ding Qi didn't dare to stay for half a moment, so he ran into the broken temple with Qingxue in his arms. This temple seems to have been unworshipped for a long time, and the doors and windows on all sides will leak air in two places. There is no way to withstand the bitter cold.

Ding Qi could only carry Qingxue to a corner covered with straw and sit down, trying to find a way to make a fire. Fortunately, everything was well prepared, and the flint for the fire was also carried with me, but the trees outside had been wet with snow and water, and they couldn't light it at all. Ding Qi could only tear down the broken window directly and split it with the knife he carried with him to make firewood.

After the coachman parked the carriage and moved the medicine box and valuables in, Ding Qi had already lit the fire, and the temperature in the temple gradually increased.

It's just that this bit of firewood alone can't burn for long at all, so Ding Qi can only order the coachman to go outside to find some dead wood to come in and put it on the side of the fire to roast, and when the firewood runs out, it can be replaced.

The coachmen Geng Qiushan found were all kung fu skills, and their movements were very neat, and after a while, there were more chopped firewood in the temple, and the leaky doors and windows had been blocked by the straw and some rags on the ground.

"Childe, your subordinates are guarding the carriage, if you have any orders, just stand at the door and call out." The coachman walked out and sealed the door with great ease.

Ding Qi wanted to keep him warm in the temple, after all, it was too cold in the carriage, and he couldn't understand the hierarchy of this era, and he couldn't imagine the loyalty of his slaves. But seeing that the coachman had gone out, Qingxue shrank in the corner in pain, so he didn't have the heart to call people back again.

After adding some more firewood to the firewood, Ding Qicai walked to Qingxue and sat down, leaning against the wall and taking her into his arms and wrapping her tightly, so that she could sleep more comfortably.

Woo~~

Qing Xue was uncomfortable, and every sound touched Ding Qi's heart, stirring him with pity.

Reaching out and touching her hot forehead, the heat still did not subside, he could only touch the medicine box beside him and take out the gauze, and untied the sheepskin water bag around his waist, poured some water to soak it and then covered Qingxue's forehead to help her cool down.

Maybe it was the coolness in her forehead, Qing Xue opened her eyes in a trance, looked up at Ding Qi with difficulty, and opened her mouth to shout: "Pure decision"

"I, I miss you so much!" Qing Xue slowly raised her hand and stroked Ding Qi's face, her heavy eyelids opened and closed, but her gaze was always fixed on this face.

"Hmmm! I know! Ding Qi's heart was sour, but he was covered by distress. It's just that the two hands unconsciously tightened Qingxue.

Qing Xue hugged his neck, a smile appeared on her crimson face, the gauze fell with her movements, and the hot forehead stuck to Ding Qi's chin, burning his heart.

Ding Qi caught the gauze, poured some water and covered her forehead again, and at this moment, Qing Xue suddenly put her red lips on his lips, and a sweet and burning feeling instantly spread to her whole body.

Ding Qi's brain suddenly went blank, and the gauze in his hand fell to the ground. After only struggling for a moment, the reason in my heart was completely occupied by impulse. He began to kiss her back like a siege of the city. Kiss her lips, which had been dry from the heat, moistened.

------

The next day, the heat in Qingxue's forehead gradually faded, Ding Qi carried her into the carriage and continued to hurry, this place is only more than ten miles away from the next post station, and only when she gets there can she recuperate.

Sitting in the carriage, Ding Qi looked at the woman who was still sleeping in his arms, and shook his head secretly, if she hadn't been sick last night, maybe he really couldn't help but ask for her.

The soft and sweet touch of her lips seemed to stay on his lips, and the possessiveness in her heart became stronger and stronger. He couldn't even imagine the days when he would lose Mu Chun completely after rescuing her. It's just that the reason after the impulse reminded him over and over again that the person in Qing Xue's heart was never him, and everything last night was just a void and empty illusion.

As the daytime temperature rose, the snow on the ground had melted a lot, and the carriage moved faster. After traveling for two hours, he finally arrived at the last post station in the border city of Pilan.

Ding Qi walked into the guest room with Qingxue in his arms, and she woke up as soon as she put her on the bed. Qing Xue naturally doesn't remember what happened last night, maybe even if she remembers something, it will only be a dream.

Every time she was sick, her consciousness was very weak, and she would not go to that world when she fell asleep, but dreamed one dream after another until she woke up. In these dreams, without exception, there are Mu Chun's decisions, reunions, partings, sadness or joy, no matter which one it is, after waking up, it is a rambling longing and emptiness.

"You're awake!" Ding Qi was afraid that she would shout to hurry again, so he had secretly taken out the hemp boiling in the medicine box last night and held it in his hand.

"Hmmm! How long did I sleep? Is there any news from the wolf soldiers? Qingxue seemed to be too weak, and did not get up as expected, but lay on the bed with a worried face and asked Ding Qi.

"It didn't take long, now we have arrived at the border of Pilou, the black halberd took the wolf soldiers to find out the news in advance last night, it should not be long before he returns, you are not well yet, sleep again, and you will be able to reach Jicheng in five or six days at most!"
