Chapter Seventy-Five: Illya on the Initiative
After the ambush was completely destroyed, everyone looked closely and found that not a single person had died, and even a few of the caravan's guards were only partially injured due to the mercenaries' best efforts to protect them.
Fang Qiubai took out some of the hemostatic ointment and healing medicine he had purchased before going out, and motioned to the injured person to deal with his wounds.
Then he looked at Yagami with some concern, and asked Zhuge Liang, "Yagami is okay, right?"
Zhuge Liang had already checked Yagami's injuries just now, and replied easily when he heard this: "The toxins are all purified by his blood, and his injuries are not too big a problem under the treatment of medicine, so let him sleep." It's good to wake up. ”
Seeing that there was nothing going on, Fang Qiubai completely relieved his heart.
And Varref, who hadn't closed his mouth since Fang Qiubai appeared, finally reacted, and hurriedly put on a grateful smile and thanked Fang Qiubai: "Thanks to your careful protection, we don't have any losses this time, otherwise I'm afraid we will all have to fold here this time." ”
"Since we have taken over the task of escorting you, we must naturally do our best, otherwise how can we be worthy of this job. Fang Qiubai replied with a chuckle.
"But I didn't expect the leader of the Thunderwolf Mercenary Group to be such a person, we have been friends for many years, and we haven't seen through him," Varif said through some gritted teeth.
"Hmph, if you dare to hurt the people around me, you will all die!" Fang Qiubai said with some ferocity.
Suddenly, he turned his head and said to Xia Na in a flattering tone: "Xia Na, the next time you meet this kind of person, don't burn them down, you can't cheapen them like this." ”
At this time, Xia Na was recalling the mood just now, the burning boiling in her brain, and the throbbing pain in her chest. The trembling in my heart caused by the fear of losing these unprecedented, sudden abnormal feelings, for some reason, continued to emerge with a powerful force, allowing me to suddenly further grasp the power of the Arastel flame.
So when she heard Fang Qiubai's words, she just casually said in agreement, and the people on the side who didn't know Xia Na's state at this time only felt sweating profusely, for fear that Fang Qiubai would teach this girl badly.
The potion provided by Fang Qiubai was just like the building he had summoned, the effect was also incredible, the wound began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye after the ointment was applied, and some of the mercenaries who had lost a lot of blood and were a little sluggish after drinking the healing potion also turned rosy in a short period of time, and they looked full of energy, as if they were not injured.
After tidying up, the people decided to set up camp in the same place and wait until daytime to start again, and the mercenaries quickly lit a bonfire, set up tents, and everyone began to cook food around the fire.
The unconscious Yagami was placed in a small tent, and a member of the caravan volunteered to stand guard at the door of the tent thinking that the mercenaries had just gone through a great battle.
Fang Qiubai threw a smile full of gratitude to the other party, and pulled Illya to the campfire.
Just after experiencing a life-and-death crisis, the relaxed people happily ate the barbecue, and Varif even took out a few jars of fine wine, and with the acquiescence of Illya, he immediately drank a piece happily.
And Illya always seemed to lack of energy, not very interested, barely ate a little food before getting up and showing an apologetic smile and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a little tired, I'll rest first, and I'll leave the rest to you." ”
Watching Illya walk into his small tent, Bruce came to Fang Qiubai's side, hugged the other party fiercely, and said with emotion: "I thought I was going to lose Xiaoya just now! Fortunately, I have you! Qiubai, you must protect her!"
"I will, this will never happen again!" Fang Qiubai recalled Illya's calm expression in the face of death, and his heart throbbed again, and he replied categorically while covering his heart.
"That's good, we old guys don't work, Xiaoya's happiness depends on you!" Bruce patted Fang Qiubai on the shoulder, got up and walked towards Rudolph and the others, and drank heartily.
Fang Qiubai saw that the people around him were eating and drinking happily, and although Zhuge Liang did not join, he was also quietly observing this group of people on the side.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him, Fang Qiubai bowed and quietly touched towards Illya's tent, but he didn't pay attention to the gazes of Xia Na and Zhuge Liang who seemed to retract immediately at the same time.
"Who!" Fang Qiubai had just lifted the tent when he heard Illya ask in a low voice.
"Xiaoya, it's me. Fang Qiubai replied as he got into the tent, and did not forget to tidy up the door of the tent.
Hearing Fang Qiubai's voice, Illya relaxed her guard and looked at the other party.
At this time, Illya had already removed the armor on her body and was wearing only a tight white robe, revealing her slender and beautiful figure.
Retracting his gaze from Illya's slender jade legs and delicate skin, Fang Qiubai looked at Illya's face, but was surprised to find that there were faint tears in the corners of her eyes.
Fang Qiubai asked in surprise, "Xiaoya, are you crying?"
Quickly reaching out and wiping the sides of her eyes, Illya forced a smile: "No, you must be wrong." ”
Fang Qiubai stepped forward, the two of them were almost close together, and even the other party's breath could be felt, he asked gently, "What's wrong? Tell me, don't hold it in your heart!"
Under Fang Qiubai's questioning, Illya couldn't hold back any longer, and threw herself into Fang Qiubai's arms and hugged him fiercely.
Fang Qiubai, who was suddenly hugged by Illya, and his whole body seemed extremely stiff, was stunned for a moment, slowly raised his hand, and gently held Illya in his arms.
Feeling Fang Qiubai's body temperature, Illya finally couldn't help crying: "I'm so afraid! I'm so afraid of dying like that, I'm so afraid that I'll never see you again! I'm really afraid."
Listening to Illya's crying in his arms, feeling her tears wet his clothes, Fang Qiubai hugged Illya tightly with both hands, and said softly: "I'm so scared, I."
I'm afraid of losing Xiaoya!"
Fang Qiubai caressed Illya's back while carefully comforting the other party in her ear, and it took a long time for Illya to stop crying.
"Let's not be separated in the future, okay?" Illya raised her head in Fang Qiubai's arms and asked pitifully.
"Well, we will never be separated, I will always accompany Xiaoya. Fang Qiubai looked at Illya's eyes that were still full of tears, and nodded seriously.
Finally, under Fang Qiubai's patient comfort, Illya's mood finally calmed down, thinking of the cry she had just made, Illya couldn't help but burst out laughing: "It's all your fault, people have never cried!"
"Well, it's all my fault, that's why I'm letting you see danger!" Fang Qiubai nodded in agreement with a serious face.
"You fool. With a strong pair of hands, Illya broke away from Fang Qiubai's arms, she stood in front of Fang Qiubai's eyes and looked at each other carefully, and then spoke.
Seeing that Illya no longer seemed to be sad about what happened just now, Fang Qiubai smiled and said, "Xiaoya, you have a good rest, we have to rush tomorrow, and I will be with you this time." ”
After finishing speaking, Fang Qiubai turned around to leave, but Illya suddenly stretched out her hand and grabbed the hem of Fang Qiubai's clothes.
"Xiaoya?" Fang Qiubai turned his head and asked.
"Liar!" Illya whispered, looking down.
"What?" Fang Qiubai thought he had misheard and asked again.
"You're a liar, you obviously said you wouldn't separate just now!" Illya raised her head to look at Fang Qiubai, although her beautiful face was flushed from shyness, she stubbornly refused to turn her head.
Fang Qiubai's heart beat violently, he looked at Illya, who looked shy but didn't let go, and then looked at the simple bed made of demonic beast fur on the side, and said in a tone of disbelief in joy: "However, there is only one bed here." ”
"I don't care!" Illya pulled Fang Qiubai fiercely towards the small bed.
However, it was a little different from what Fang Qiubai imagined, after Illya pulled Fang Qiubai down on the small bed that could accommodate the two of them, closed her eyes tightly and kissed Fang Qiubai on the face, and then curled up into a ball and rested quietly against Fang Qiubai's heart.
Looking at Illya, who snuggled up to him like a kitten, he soon fell into a deep sleep. Fang Qiubai silently smiled bitterly, carefully hugged the other party, and closed his eyes.
