Chapter 192: Helping Others
After the meal, everyone went back to their houses.
Liu Ruyan asked the little maid to bring the bath bucket, fill it with hot water, and after closing the door, she stepped into the bucket to bathe.
During these days in the army, I usually wash with cold water, and it is rare to be able to use hot water.
She soaked in warm water, washed carefully, and only after a while did she get up and dress.
The candle flickered, Liu Ruyan put on plain clothes, sat by the window and wrecked her wet hair.
The breeze outside the window is gentle, a lonely lamp, a lonely shadow.
At this moment, she seemed to hear something strange outside.
Liu Ruyan was lying on the window lattice and looked out, but found that under the window, Shen Yanchu was squatting there, raising his eyes.
Liu Ruyan said with a smile: "On a big night, you stay here to admire the moon?" ”
Shen Yan glanced at the sky at the beginning, dark clouds covered the moon, and the night was dark.
He swept her smile coldly, his eyes fell on the thin dirty clothes and paused slightly, but he said, "It's not early, you have a good rest." ”
With that, jump off the eaves.
Liu Ruyan secretly said that he was weird, shook his head, and closed the window lattice.
Outside the window, the dark clouds dispersed, leaving only a full moon.
Bai Zhi had just rested when she heard someone knocking on the door.
He put on his coat and got up to open the door, only to see that it was Shen Yan waiting outside.
"It's so late, Brother Shen has something to do?"
Shen Yanchu stepped straight into the house, his expression was cold, making people shudder.
"Did you keep the Tai Sui that you brought out of the sword mound at the beginning?" He asked suddenly.
Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment, "I kept it, but to this day, Bai still can't see the medicinal properties." ”
"Show it to me."
"Okay."
Bai Zhi took out the jar containing Tai Sui from the medicine box and opened the seal.
But I saw that Tai Sui grew up a little, and the color was transparent, like jade.
Shen Yanchu reached out to touch it, and the touch of his fingertips was particularly slippery. He held Tai Sui in his hand, and the thing squirmed slightly as if it were alive.
Bai Zhi was quite surprised, he had usually met Tai Sui, but it had never changed like now.
Shen Yanchu raised his eyes and said, "If you want to solve the blood curse in her, you can only use Tai Sui as a medicine." ”
Bai Zhi asked, "Do you know how to break the curse?" ”
Shen Yanchu looked at him coldly, "I naturally know that even if it is a curse I planted, only I can solve it in this world." ”
Angelica Angelica was completely confused.
"Didn't she tell you that I planted the Blood Curse for her?"
"Not really."
When Shen Yan first saw this, he told Bai Zhi the ins and outs of the matter.
"So, she is a blood curse puppet, if you want to break the spell, you have to use this Tai Sui?"
"To be precise, it is the blood Tai Sui that grows from the dead people, purified with clean water, and then coexists with the living."
Symbiosis?
Bai Zhi was surprised, "Could it be that you want to raise this Tai Sui?" ”
Shen Yanchu clenched his palm, "You can just use it as medicine afterwards, and you don't need to ask about the rest." ”
Following.
The group left the room and hit the road again.
Jin Buchang brought a large number of retinues, and after the carriage arrived at the wharf, it was necessary to change to a Canton boat and go to Jinling.
The trip lasts for three days, and the cost of the boat is not small.
The carriage alone had to pay 180 yuan.
If you want to move in, you have to add an additional 50 yuan per person and squeeze into the cabin on the lowest floor.
Jin Buchang swept over the civilians who were about to board the ship, and directly paid Qianwen and booked the topmost Tianzi room.
In this regard, Gong Yuyu was stunned: "A rich businessman is a rich businessman." ”
Everyone's money is usually handed over to Bai Zhi for safekeeping, so they looked at Bai Zhi together.
Bai Zhi made a careful calculation and said to the boatman: "Five people, book three rooms." ”
The floor room is much cheaper than the sky room, and there are two sleeping beds in the room.
Bai Zhi planned to let Miss Liu live alone, and the rest of the people could share the night, so as to save some boat fare.
Know very well.
"I'm going to live alone!" The public loses the Yu to grab the talk.
"Bai is staying with you." Bai Zhizhi frowned.
"I don't want it, Huai'an will be seasick, and it is inconvenient to sleep with others!" Gong Yu vetoed it.
Liu Ruyan saw that the two of them were arguing, so she kindly suggested: "Why don't I share a room with Bai Zhi?" ”
"No!" Angelica dahurica.
"No!" Shen Yanchu.
"No!" Dong Qingxian.
Several voices rang out in unison.
Liu Ruyan felt very weird.
"I used to live together in Song Ying, what's wrong with it now?"
Shen Yanchu pursed his lips and was silent......
At that time, there were many people in the camp, and several people would share a tent, and they would be relieved of each other.
However, this is no longer the case.
A cramped and airtight cabin, who knows if those stinky boys will try to do wrong.
It's not appropriate, it's really inappropriate.
Shen Yanchu simply said: "I will sleep with her." ”
When Bai Zhi saw him speak, what he was thinking about was Brother Shen's practice of abstaining from lust and desire, which was no different from that of a high-ranking monk.
Bai Zhi was naturally relieved: "That's fine, Bai and Dong Qingxian can stay together." ”
The sub-room is settled.
After paying the boat fare, everyone will receive a bamboo stick.
Liu Ruyan boarded the boat with a bamboo skewer and came to the cabin where she was staying.
The cabin was not spacious, with a bed next to each wall with a table and a stool in the middle, and a small window open by the doorway.
She stuffed her luggage under the bed and began to make the bed.
Shen Yanchu entered the room a little later, still carrying a bamboo basket in his hand.
Liu Ruyan finished making the bed, changed into a clean cloth, and looked up to see the basket in his hand.
"Going to buy kumquats?" She asked with a smile.
Shen Yanchu put down the bamboo basket and took out the oranges inside.
"The river is windy, and it is easy to get seasick, so I heard from the vendors that it is better to eat some oranges."
He paused for a moment and continued, "What I bought for you is not allowed to be distributed to others. ”
Liu Ruyan washed her hands and teased him: "Do you think the two of us look like we are eating alone?" ”
She took the orange, slowly peeled it off, broke off the flesh one by one, and handed it to her mouth.
Shen Yanchu stared at her, and in his sight, his red lips were slightly open, and his lips were moist.
Eat alone.
him and her.
The cabin was small, Shen Yanchu's throat rolled, looking at the moist lips, and suddenly, he felt a little thirsty.
"What does it taste like?" He asked.
"Sweet and sour, it tastes good, do you want to taste it?"
"Yes." He replied, secretly thinking a little about himself.
He lowered his eyes, "But I didn't clean my hands, why don't you feed me?" ”
Oops, that's right. Ye Xun couldn't help but bubble up.
It seems that the male protagonist is not a dumbfounder!
If she was an ordinary girl, she would have lowered her head a long time ago, and her eyebrows and eyes were shy and timid.
But who is Liu Ruyan, a rough man who grew up in the barracks, not to mention feeding oranges, it is not a problem to take a bath and rub his back.
She peeled the flesh and coaxed in her mouth, "Ahhh
Then while the other party opened his mouth, he stuffed it all in.
He choked a little.
"Rude."
"Eh, you asked me to feed the oranges, don't you feed them all like that?"
She continued to peel.
Before she could peel it, Shen Yanchu suddenly lowered his head, grabbed her hand, and bit a petal of flesh.
He bit down on the flesh, and the sweet juice flowed down, wetting her fingers, and he lowered his head and sucked the juice.
Liu Ruyan was stunned and retracted her hand, although she was not ashamed, her cheeks were flushed with red clouds.
Opposite her, Shen Yanchu's eyes were burning and he stared at her eyebrows.
Liu Ruyan was stared at by him uncomfortably, thinking that today's demon is very weird.
As if he was going to eat not oranges, but her?
She was stunned by the thought in her heart.
But as soon as she thought about it, she shifted her mind again - he didn't clean his hands, she was happy to help others, why not?
