Chapter 22: A Change in Attitude
As soon as Xiao Shen looked up, he saw that she had only stripped off a small coat, and her waist suddenly appeared in front of her.
Xiao Yan's dark eyes deepened, this was the second time she had stripped in front of him without any scruples, didn't she have a little shame?
Does she really think of him as her husband?
"You are not ...... in front of others. Informal? ”
Su Ying didn't pause in her movements, hung all the wet clothes on the branches she picked up, tied the longer branches into a tripod with the rhizomes of the plant, and then put them by the fire to roast.
"You quickly take off your pants, and I'll look at the wound on your foot." Su Ying didn't think deeply about the meaning of his words, she just wanted to hurry up and get things done last night, and then sit down and eat meat!
Xiao Yan's face tightened, feeling that he couldn't talk to this woman normally.
"You still have medicine on you?"
"Yes, it's all wrapped around the body, and it doesn't fall off when it falls."
"Then you give me the medicine, and I'll take care of it myself."
Su Ying thought about it, and put the medicine bottle on his body in front of him, "First see if the wound on your foot is red, swollen and ulcerated, and if there is rotten flesh again, you can quickly apply the medicine again." ”
Xiao Yan took the medicine and responded lightly.
Su Ying returned to the edge of the fire and sat down, flipped the barbecue on the fire shelf, and suddenly thought that when chatting before, He Shouyi told her that if you want the meat to be roasted deliciously, it is best not to use an open flame, so that the meat will have a strong smoky atmosphere, you can find a big leaf to wrap the meat, and then wrap it in a layer of yellow mud and throw it into the fire to burn, as long as it is burned for half an hour, you can eat it.
With that in mind, she got up and walked out of the cave.
Before Xiao Ember could speak, she disappeared.
When Su Ying returned to the cave with a large handful of leaves, she found Xiao Shen sitting at the entrance of the cave looking straight at her.
Su Ying opened his mouth suspiciously, "What are you doing here?" ”
Xiao Yan said expressionlessly: "The smoke is uncomfortable, come out and breathe." ”
Su Ying did not doubt him, and carried the leaves into the cave.
After Xiao Yan saw her enter, he slowly moved in with his hand, "What are you doing with so many leaves?" ”
Su Ying said excitedly: "Try the flower rabbit and flower chicken that Uncle He taught me." ”
She took the chicken and rabbit off the shelves and wrapped them in the large leaves, then wrapped them in the yellow clay she had brought back, and then put the mud balls wrapped in the meat into the fire to burn.
Su Ying sat on the side, slowly adding firewood, and barely took her eyes off the fire.
Because the fire was burning very strongly, not to mention the clothes, even Su Ying's hair was dried.
Su Ying stared at the gap of the fire and glanced at Xiao Yan, "Have you taken care of the injury on your leg?" ”
Xiao Shen looked at her and nodded.
Su Ying looked at his peaceful eyebrows, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and always felt that Xiao Yan's attitude towards her seemed to have eased a little.
Probably because she bravely jumped off the rope bridge to save him, which moved him?
Su Ying felt that this was very likely, she didn't think about it, and calculated that the time was almost up, so she used a branch to get out the dried mud ball and break it open.
The moment the leaves were opened, a rich smell of flesh filled Su Ying's sense of smell.
Su Ying knocked several mud balls in a row, put the rabbit and a chicken that had been cooked in front of Xiao Yan, and took a piece of dry food from his body to him.
"It's yours, the rest is mine."
Su Ying saw that he still looked in front of his mud ball, frowned, and seemed to have made a thought struggle before pushing a cooked rabbit in front of him, "At most, I'm giving you one, I can't have more." ”
Xiao Yan didn't need to eat so much, but seeing her painful look, he accepted it unceremoniously, "Okay." ”
Su Ying grabbed a rabbit leg and took a big bite without caring about the hot hand.
The chicken has been burned to a very soft and glutinous level, and even without any seasonings, the chicken tastes exceptionally fragrant.
Compared with Su Ying's gobbling up, Xiao Yan's eating appearance is elegant, he is not slow to eat, but it does not make people feel that he is eager at all.
Xiao Shen didn't expect this meat to be so fragrant, and after eating it with a mouthful of dry food, he felt that the strength in his body had recovered a lot.
After Su Ying's gust of wind swept away, several rabbits entered her stomach, and she leaned against the stone wall and exhaled in satisfaction.
"It's a really, comfortable day."
Xiao Shen saw her leaning against the stone wall, his eyes were a little unopen, he took a branch to make the fire smaller, and then slowly moved to the direction closer to the entrance of the cave, where he could see the situation outside the cave for the first time.
Su Ying was really tired and fell asleep, in her sleep she took a laser to fight with the zombies, until she was exhausted and the rescue did not come, and finally, she fell down exhaustedly, and in the moment before she fell, she seemed to see a figure walking towards her.
But he had the light on his back, and she couldn't see his appearance clearly even if she tried to keep her eyes open.
Su Ying snorted lightly and lifted his eyelids, and saw Xiao Yan sitting at the entrance of the cave with his back straight, and the golden light outside was like a cave, enveloping his whole person in a halo.
Under the golden light, his eyebrows and eyes are deeper, and the bridge of his nose that stands like a distant mountain is three-dimensional like a sculpture, and it is a side face at any angle, which makes people unable to find a trace of error.
After falling into the water yesterday, the dirt on his face was washed away quickly, and his skin was still a faint wheat color in the sun.
As if sensing her gaze, Xiao Shen turned his dark eyes slightly to look at her.
"Wake up."
"Yes." Su Ying didn't have the embarrassment of peeking at the bag at all, and after sitting up neatly, luck swam around the circle, and she instantly felt refreshed.
Su Ying looked at the situation outside the cave, after they came up from the water yesterday, it seemed that there was no rain in this area, "Do you know where the team will settle down next?" ”
Xiao Shen reached out and dotted on the ground, and Su Ying realized that he had drawn a map on the ground with gravel.
"We should be in this position right now." Xiao Ember tapped a twig somewhere on the map.
"And they, if they crossed the bridge smoothly yesterday, they will settle in the ruined temple outside Yuecheng."
"By the time we arrived in Yuecheng, they must have gone far." They are still deep in the mountains, and they don't know when they will be able to get out.
"Where are they going next?"
Xiao Yan's fingertips moved, and finally stopped in a place marked in red, "We want to meet them, it's difficult to chase behind, we can only walk in front of them and wait, they can't take the official road, but we can after we go out, the premise is that we have to find the nearest village first, let them send us into the city, and then take the car to Yunshui City." ”
Xiao Shen had been in the court for many years, and knew that the officials who escorted the exiled prisoners would supply dry food in designated places, which were all set up by the imperial court and were fixed.
For a large team of hundreds of people, the dry food will be replenished once in five days at the latest, according to the previous consumption rate, they can't last four days, and there will be no supply points after Yuecheng until Yunshui City, they can only go to Yunshui City.
Therefore, as long as they wait in Yunshui City, they will definitely be able to wait for them.
