11. Road
In the wilderness, the sun sets, and the night closes.
The already cold weather is still cooling.
The cold penetrates through the skin, and even the twinkling stars and moonlight on the horizon are like ice water, soaking pedestrians in it.
The two found a low hill, and then set up a tent that they had brought from the caravan, and in front of the tent was a warm bonfire, which was red and illuminated Bai Yuntian's side face.
Xia Wuwu skillfully inserted the turkey with a bamboo stick and put it on the fire to barbecue.
One by one, it is rolled over one after another so that it is evenly heated, and it will not burn in one place.
When the heat rose and the aroma was permeating, he took a deep breath, then brought two bamboo sticks to his left hand, and his right hand picked up the spices, and quickly sprinkled them on the fragrant chicken.
"Here you go. ”
Bai Yuntian lay lazily on the flat sapphire blue silk cloth, crossed his legs, and unceremoniously took the roast turkey, "I didn't expect that a person like you would still know how to live." Killed someone, threw a knife, and didn't forget to take a bottle of spices when looting. Admire, admire, admire. ”
Xia Wuwu smiled and took a bite of a large piece of turkey meat, the taste was okay, the key was that the sky was the curtain and the ground was the seat, and eating barbecue in such a background had a unique flavor.
"I'm also surprised when you say that. ”
"What's the matter?" Bai Yuntian said casually.
Xia Wuwu said: "I thought that laziness was just a mask for you to confuse people, but I didn't expect me to be wrong, you are not lazy, you are really lazy." ”
"Haha..." Bai Yuntian couldn't help laughing, she still maintained a lying position, even eating roast chicken.
"In this world, the weak eat the strong, if you lie down, someone will naturally step over you, trample you to death, and then return your corpse as food and use it as a material for cultivation..."
Xia Wuwu said again and again: "Stop, stop, leave these words to you to educate your future disciples." ”
Bai Yuntian was surprised: "Am I not right?"
"It doesn't matter if it's right or not" Xia Wuwu ate and drank to his heart's content, threw the wooden stick into the bonfire far away, and the flames jumped up, shining his face red, "Don't try to interfere with my vision by using some seemingly reasonable words to let me characterize you as a certain kind of person." ”
"Hehe-hee..."Bai Yuntian covered her mouth and smiled sweetly.
Now that it was debunked, she didn't say much.
It's just that the two of them took turns to keep vigil, Xia Wuwu in the first half of the night, and she kept watch in the second half of the night.
Not worried about the beast, but about the other two saints who could appear at any moment.
Bai Le, as well as Bai Qi.
They won't bring anyone with them, because this fight is between the three holy women.
The insects chirped in the night, the strange beast cries in the distance were intermittent, Xia Wuwu crossed his knees to breathe, and then opened his eyes and randomly played the bonfire with a wooden stick.
I don't know what happened to all the people of the Lang Sword Sect, as well as the little junior sister, the cheap sister, and Mu Chen.
Trapped dogs, it should be a difficult life, right?
But since the system has issued a task to kill the general manager of the Liangzhou Road March, "Cool Night" Weinis, then at least Weines is not dead, otherwise the mission should fail.
With Mu Chen's kid here, he should be fine, right?
If he wants to die, he will also hold out with the Langjian Sect until the last moment.
Forbearance, black-bellied, cunning, acting, like to dig a knife behind his back, he is definitely not a good person, but he is still righteous and angry, and he agrees with his own love, and it is estimated that a thousand little junior sisters are not his opponents combined.
He doesn't know martial arts, which was originally his fatal weakness, but in his hands, it has been transformed into the biggest cover-up.
Just ask, who will defend a small city lord who is powerless?
The first half of the night passed, and it was calm and there was no movement.
Xia Wuwu yawned, got into the tent and fell asleep, there seemed to be the smell of the woman in the bed, he sniffed, it should not be poisoned.
So, after two laps, I entered the dream.
I don't know how long later, he suddenly felt the sound of a fight outside the door, his eyes suddenly opened, and then he lowered his body, and rushed to the tent with an arrow, and slightly opened the curtain to look out.
But seeing the corpses of some wild wolves around Bai Yuntian, she was squatting on the ground and looking at those wild wolves carefully, as if she was distinguishing something, her body was still like a reef in the sea, and she shook her head gently for a long time, as if she had negated any judgment.
"Did anyone escape?" Xia Wuwu lifted the curtain and walked out slowly.
"Nope. Bai Yuntian shook her head.
The two of them glanced at each other and couldn't help frowning at the same time, because there were only a few wolf corpses on the ground, and as a pack of wild wolves, it was really rare for less than ten to appear in such a wilderness.
Bai Yuntian continued: "This kind of wolf is very common in the Northland, usually one hundred or ten, or even hundreds, in packs, led by the wolf king..."
Xia Wuwu said: "But there is no wolf king here. ”
"No, no. ”
Xia Wuwu looked at the girl with locked eyebrows, yawned and said, "You continue to keep vigil, I'll go to sleep." ”
"Still sleeping?"
"The soldiers are coming, the water is coming to cover the earth, how can you work if you don't sleep enough?"
"Hey, I want to sleep, you said. Bai Yuntian said lazily.
Soon there was snoring in the tent...
Bai Yuntian narrowed his eyes and muttered in a low voice, "It's completely different from those fools, you are qualified to be my ally." ”
Then she also fell silent, looking at the starry sky, huddled by the campfire, her eyes still, not knowing what she was thinking.
The next day, it was cloudy.
The two continued their horses on their horses towards the Northlands, but stayed until midnight and set up their tents as before, and then rested.
So another day passed, and it was calm.
Day 3.
The two of them had already walked into the mountain and forest area, found a cave, and explored a little, but did not find any poisonous insects or the like hidden in it.
A bonfire was set up directly in front of the cave and rested in the same way as before.
"How much longer?"
"If we hadn't had a storm, it would have been about two days. Bai Yuntian replied, "At that time, you and I will return to the Inurong camp together, and after I return to the temple to resume the mission, I will take you to find the team from Liangzhou Dao that day." Since you are sure that you are besieged by our Inu warriors, I will naturally be able to ask when the time comes. ”
"Well, I hope you can keep the covenant. ”
"Of course, I swore to the demons because of your strength. But now... I really want to make an alliance with you. People like you are fit to be friends, not enemies. Bai Yuntian said softly.
Xia Wuwu glanced at her deeply and didn't make a sound.
Words can deceive, but time cannot.
And many times, people can't choose, whether they are friends or foes, and they don't just rely on a momentary will.
Both of them fell silent.
"Are you sure they will come?" Xia Wuwu suddenly asked, after all, he had never seen those two holy women, and he didn't know anything about the Spirit Gate, Totem and the like before.
Bai Yuntian looked out of the cave faintly, "Tonight, it's their last chance." ”
