Chapter 68: The Plague

It wasn't until she came out of a hidden cave that Xu Feifei found that the black halberd had been following her. It found out that she was leaving, but it didn't alarm the others, and it was obvious that it still had the intention of letting her go to Mu Chun for a decision. That's fine, having it with her all the way, at least it's much safer than her alone.

Xu Feifei stretched out her hand and stroked her stomach, sighed lightly and murmured: "Baby, I will take you to your father, you must be well-behaved and strong." ”

"No matter how strong a child is, he can't stand your toss!" Gu Sichen didn't know where to come out, and there was a carriage behind him.

"What do you want to do? I'm not going back. Xu Feifei watched him approach step by step, protected her stomach and unconsciously took two steps back.

"After getting along for a few months, you are still so afraid of me!" Gu Sichen smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, I don't want to take you back to the palace, let alone force you and me to go back to Pilan." If you want to go to Mu Chun to decide, I'll take you there. ”

"You're taking me?" Xu Feifei obviously didn't want to believe it.

"I really didn't expect you to be willing to let the child in your belly accompany you in order to find Mu Chun! Do you know how dangerous this trip is? What would happen if he came back safely one day, but something happened to you and your child? Gu Sichen's eyes were calm, and he changed his previous appearance and said seriously.

"I ......" Xu Feifei looked at her bulging belly and was silent for a long time, then raised her head and asked, "Will you really take me there?" ”

"If you believe me, get in, if you don't, go yourself!" But don't forget, if something really happens to Mu Chun, this in your stomach is Chiyun's last hope. After Gu Sichen finished speaking, he sat in the carriage alone.

"Fei Fei, get in the car! I believe in Him. Ai Qing said in her heart, after these days of getting along, she knew that although Gu Sichen was stubborn, her nature was not bad. And if you don't follow him, I'm afraid that if you can't walk ten miles, you and your children will have an accident.

"Hmm!" Xu Feifei answered, called the black halberd and got into the carriage together.

The coachman drove the carriage very steadily, obviously Gu Sichen was afraid that the bumps on the road would hurt her and the child, Xu Feifei looked at Gu Sichen, who was calm and speechless at the moment, and said softly: "Thank you"

Gu Sichen didn't react as if he hadn't heard it, just leaning on the wall of the car and looking up. After a while, he opened his mouth and asked, "What do you like Mu Chun to decide?" ”

"Huh?" Xu Feifei was puzzled by this sudden question.

"Most of the men of the emperor's family are the same, and they are born for the throne and power. Yes, so is Mu Chun, but who has ever asked us if we want this throne and power? Gu Sichen said and smiled miserably: "In the end, he Mu Chun is lucky to meet a woman like you who is infatuated with him." ”

Xu Feifei listened to these words, she wanted to say something but didn't know where to start, she only now understood that the reason why Gu Sichen showed love to her in every way was not because she loved her, but because of her sincerity to Mu Chun.

"One day, you'll meet it too." Ai Qing saw that Xu Feifei didn't speak, so she controlled her body and said softly.

Listening to her words, Gu Sichen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked with a wicked smile: "Qin'er, are you really not thinking about it anymore?" In fact, I am not as good as Mu Chun in kung fu, as for the others, they are definitely evenly matched, if you are willing to go back with me, I will definitely not treat you worse than Mu Chun. ”

Ai Qing looked at this man who was serious but started messing around again for half an hour, and he glanced away, but he was not angry.

------

Because she was afraid of hurting the child in her belly, she stopped and stopped along the way, and it took ten days to complete half of the journey, and the black halberd often summoned the wolf soldiers stationed in the desert to come out to inquire about the situation, although Ai Qing didn't understand, but she was clear about the ability of the black halberd, so she also led the way by it and moved forward slowly.

Because it was early summer, the climate of the desert was getting hotter and hotter, sitting in the camel cart, Ai Qing only felt sweat like rain, Gu Sichen saw that her face was not good, so he ordered the camel cart to stop, took a sheepskin water bag and fed her to drink, because the temperature was too high, the water in the water bag had become warm, Ai Qing took a sip and stopped drinking. Stretched out his hand to check his pulse, but fortunately, there was nothing wrong with the child in his belly, so he set off with confidence.

Oh woo~~

A wolf howl came from outside the camel cart, and Ai Qing knew that it was another wolf soldier who came to report the news, and before she could speak, the black halberd jumped out.

Every time Ai Qing heard the wolf soldier coming, he would have some expectations in his heart, whether it would be the news of Mu Chun's decision, but every time it was just empty joy. This time she still did not give up and stepped out of the camel cart, but at this moment, the black halberd suddenly turned and ran, shaking its tail and head, and seemed to be very happy.

"Black Halberd, is there any news from the prince?" Ai Qing asked happily.

The black halberd roared towards the sky, and its front hooves were raised high, as if she was afraid that she would not see it.

Ai Qing's excited eyes were filled with tears, and she stroked her stomach and muttered: "Baby, we have found your father!" You hear me? After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Gu Sichen who was standing behind him.

Gu Sichen looked at her overjoyed appearance, sighed and said, "Got it!" I'll take you there now. ”

Ai Qing happily turned around to get into the camel cart, but her dress was dragged by the black halberd.

"What's wrong? Black Halberd, let's go find the prince! Ai Qing said but saw that the black halberd did not mean to let go, and suddenly became anxious again: "Why don't you let me go?" But is the prince in danger? ”

The black halberd let go of its mouth, but it circled around Ai Qing several times, and Ai Qing watched its movements but never understood what it wanted to say.

"You're leaving us waiting?" Gu Sichen walked up and asked, these days in the same camel cart, he is no longer as afraid of the black halberd as before.

Hearing that he understood what he meant, the black halberd quickly lifted his front hooves up again.

"Qin'er, since the news that the wolf soldiers can execute Mu Chun came, then Mu Chun must have known about you coming to him, the war ahead is dangerous, and there is a plague rampant, Mu Chundu's intention should be to let you wait for him to come back in the same place." Gu Sichen looked at the black halberd's actions and confirmed his speculation.

Before Ai Qing could speak, the black halberd pulled up her sleeve again.

"What's wrong? "Black Halberd" Ai Qing hugged her stomach and sat on the ground with difficulty as it pulled.

"Ai Qing, medicine, it must be the medicine in its sleeve." Xu Feifei reminded in her heart.

After listening to her words, Ai Qing hurriedly reached into his sleeve pocket to probe, only to find that he was in a hurry, and he didn't bring any medicine in his sleeve, and his heart panicked: "Black halberd, is the prince injured?" ”

Seeing that the black halberd rubbed her sleeve, but there was no other movement. Ai Qing asked tremblingly again, "Plague! The prince is suffering from the plague, isn't he? ”

As soon as the words fell, the black halberd raised his front hooves, Ai Qing looked at the black halberd's movements, and his heart was even more anxious, and tears slid down his cheeks: "I obviously know that this trip is dangerous, why can't I remember to bring some medicine and come out again!" ”

Gu Sichen looked at her helpless appearance and squatted down to hug her in his arms, and only said, "Don't worry, I will take you to save him." ”

"That's right! I'm going to save him! Ai Qing hurriedly got up from the ground, got into the camel cart, choked up and called the black halberd to guide the way, the black halberd saw that she had no medicine in her sleeve, and hesitated for a moment and could only step forward to lead the way.

------

After walking for half a day, I saw two corpses lying on the ground, half buried by the yellow sand. They knew that these people must have died of the plague, and they didn't dare to come forward to investigate in order to prevent being infected, and the coachman was so frightened that he threw down the camel cart and ran back, so Gu Sichen had no choice but to get out of the camel cart, take the driver's place, and continue to drive on a camel.

Getting closer and closer to the border city, there were more and more cases of seeing corpses along the way, out of professional sensitivity, Ai Qing found two silk handkerchiefs, moistened them with water and asked Gu Sichen and himself to cover their mouths and noses, in case they were infected by the plague. But the temperature was too high during the day, the silk handkerchief was just wet for a while and then it dried again, and the dripping water on the desert was as expensive as oil, repeated a few times, Ai Qing didn't care anymore, and only wanted to find Mu Chun to decide earlier.

After walking for another half a day, it was getting dark, and I felt that the camel cart had stopped, Ai Qing stretched out her head to look, and saw hundreds of wolf soldiers standing faintly in front of her, and she was suddenly happy in her heart, and hurriedly got off the camel cart with her stomach in a hurry. Seeing that the black halberd also turned back to guide her, Ai Qing hurriedly followed.

Gu Sichen was afraid that she would fall, so he followed behind him not far away, and just turned over the small mountain bag in front of him and saw a black shadow lying on the ground.
