05 Tiredness

This road is a road full of countless memories, thinking that she has been running on this road all these years, she suddenly felt tired, physically and mentally exhausted.

Ding Guoguo leaned against the window of the inn, looking at the empty street facing the street, quietly in a daze.

The Snowpiercer army is about to attack Upper Valley Castle, and this city is the only way to get to Upper Valley Castle.

The war made the originally prosperous and lively street market become depressed and cold, the poor fled and families migrated, and the huge city became empty, with no half of a figure in sight, like a ghost town.

Yesterday they had traveled overnight, bypassing Upper Valley Castle to get here. Originally, I wanted to rest here for a morning, change horses and go on the road again. Where would you think that the people in the city have already run out, let alone buy horses, even food can't be bought.

"Master, I'm done."

As soon as Ding Guoguo turned around, she saw that Ding Ning's face was covered with ashes, and she couldn't help but burst out laughing. She has never been able to cook, and she is too lazy to learn, Ding Ning is better than her, and can cook porridge and noodles.

"It's like a little flower cat." She took out the veil and tried to wipe the black ash off his face for him, but she didn't know how to wipe it, and it was everywhere. She shoved the handkerchief into his hand and smiled, "Go wash it." ”

"Yes." Ding Ning grinned and tugged at her sleeve and pulled her into the kitchen in the backyard of the inn. "You eat first." He gestured to the two bowls of noodles on the table.

Ding Guoguo sat down at the table with a smile, picked up a hand with chopsticks to roll out the noodles, the length and width of the noodles were even, she raised her eyes to look at him, and praised with a smile, "Your skills have made a lot of progress, Ning'er." ”

Ding Ning washed his face, hung the handkerchief on the bamboo pole at the door, returned to the kitchen and sat opposite her, and said proudly with a smile, "That's it, I have been working on others for more than a year in the back kitchen of the Ethereal Temple." ”

Hearing his words, Ding Guoguo's nose was sour, tears almost fell, and she was busy hiding her head and lowering her head to eat noodles.

Although Ding Ning was not born in a wealthy family, he has never suffered since he was a child, if it weren't for her, how could he have suffered so much and suffered so much injury. The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became, and tears poured down her face.

"Why are you crying, master?" Seeing her crying suddenly, Ding Ning hurriedly got up and sat next to her, and wiped her tears with his sleeve.

Ding Guoguo didn't want to say it, and it didn't make him feel uncomfortable, she wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve, and said with a smile, "My eyes were accidentally splashed by my face just now." ”

"Scared me, I thought you remembered something sad again. Come, I'll help you blow it, and it won't hurt if you blow it. Ding Ning smiled and cupped her face and blew on her eyes.

Watching him coax her like a child, Ding Guoguo couldn't help but be angry and funny, but her heart was warm, she reached out and twisted his arm, and scolded with a smile, "You coax the master as a three-year-old child?" ”

Ding Ning grinned, let go of her, took her bowl, picked up the noodles with chopsticks and swayed them back and forth in the air, trying to make the noodles cool quickly.

Ding Guoguo held his chin in his hands and looked at him with a smile on his face.

Her Ning'er has really grown up, not only can take care of people, but also has a very gentlemanly demeanor.

Because they were all tired from traveling all night, after eating, they picked up a room and went to sleep.

Asleep, asleep, Ding Guoguo suddenly felt that someone was staring at her in her sleep, she was startled, and woke up. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw that Ding Ning, who was laying on the floor next to the bed, also woke up, holding a knife in one hand, looking out of the wide open window vigilantly.

Her heart tightened, and she hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, is it someone?" ”

Ding Ning frowned and said, "I felt a little strange yesterday, I always had the feeling of being stared at in the dark. ”

"Why don't we get out of here?" Listening to his words, and thinking of the feeling in his sleep, Ding Guoguo couldn't help but feel a little hairy in his heart, and hurriedly brought clothes and put them on his body.

Ding Ning got up and walked to the window to look around, he nodded thoughtfully, "It's okay." ”

They didn't dare to stay long, and they didn't stop until the next town. The horses had been running for a day and a night, and although they had a break on the way, they were so tired that they could not continue their journey.

Fortunately, all the families in this town were still there, so they found an inn to live in.

With the experience of the last time, Ding Guoguo didn't dare to sleep at night, and she woke up at the slightest movement. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw someone standing by the bed, and she screamed in fright.

"What's the matter, master?" Ding Ning, who was standing next to the bed, was startled by her and hurriedly asked.

"What, it's Ning'er." While Ding Guoguo breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but scold angrily, "Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night, why are you standing by the bed?" ”

Ding Ning pouted aggrievedly, "I wanted to call you to get up and hurry, but before I could make a sound, you shouted, which scared me!" ”

Hearing him say this, Ding Guoguo scratched his hair a little embarrassed and apologized, "I'm sorry, I thought it was... She was halfway through her sentence when she suddenly felt wrong. She hurriedly smiled and asked in a panic, "Did you find out who was following us?!" ”

Ding Ning looked at the closed window and frowned, "That's not true, I just think it's weird, I always feel stared at." I think we'll make it all night and take a look at the next stop. ”

Ding Guoguo didn't dare to say more, hurriedly dressed quickly, packed the packages of the two, and the two went to the inn stable in the dark to lead the horse, sneaked out of the inn, and went on the road overnight.

After two days of trekking, they finally arrived at Colorful Bay on the third day. After the round with Langka, both men breathed a sigh of relief. In the past three days, they have been in a hurry with fear, and neither of them has rested well, so they decided to rest in Wucai Bay for two days before hitting the road.

"Congratulations."

In the evening, Langka and Ding Guoguo were drinking in the courtyard of the temporary residence, and Langka said this coldly.

Ding Guoguo was stunned, "Congratulations on what?" ”

Langka poured her a glass of wine, put down the flask, looked at her with a smile and said, "Congratulations on the good things you have with the king." ”

Ding Guoguo's face flushed, he reached out and picked up the wine glass and drank it, then lowered his eyes and looked at the wine glass, but did not answer.

"You're not happy?" Langka looked at her face and asked cautiously, "Or do you really not want to marry the king?" ”

"It's not." Ding Guoguo shook his head, raised his eyes to look at him, and said with a smile, "He is very good, and he will be very happy to be his wife." ”

"What about you?" Langka looked at her inquiringly and asked tentatively, "You haven't forgotten Nangong Li?" ”

Ding Guoguo shook his head again, reached out and took the wine jug and poured himself a glass of wine, and after drinking, he raised his eyes to look at the night sky, and sighed, "I just feel very tired, very tired, I want to rest for a while and get a good night's sleep." ”

Langka looked at her and frowned slightly. He had never been a delicate person, and he didn't quite understand what she meant.
