Nangong Yu had no choice but to knock on the door, and after knocking three times, no one responded. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info He didn't have the face to knock again, and when he was about to leave, Ouyang Shan suddenly opened the door. Nangong Yu had forgotten when he had blushed last time, anyway, his face was red now. Facing Ouyang Shan, who had a questioning face, her mouth opened, but she couldn't speak.
Ouyang Shan said lightly: "I thought Gongzi was a decent person, but I didn't expect to come and knock on my widow's door, I don't know what to say?" Nangong Yu lowered his head and teased: "I... Can I go in and say?" Ouyang Shan sneered: "Just say it here, what did my father let you do?" Nangong Yu sighed, pulled up his sleeves, and said: "I respect Mrs. Zhenlie, I didn't dare to be abrupt when I was killed, but... It's just that his life is all in the hands of Ling Zun, and he has to do something reluctant. β
Ouyang Shan was surprised: "This is my family's seven-day life-sustaining pill?" Nangong Yu nodded and said, "Yes, otherwise I would dare to be rude to my wife." Ouyang Shan was silent for a moment and said, "Childe come in and talk about it." After Nangong Yu thanked him, he entered the wing room and sat on the bench. Ouyang Shan sat down opposite him and said, "What the hell is my father forcing you to do?" Nangong Yu said: "Ling Zun can afford to be below, and wants to let him pursue his wife and let his wife have a home." That's why I was kidnapped from Shu to here. In Xia Ming's wife's heart, in fact, one of my fiancΓ©es was also killed not long ago, if it weren't for Ling Zun's poison, I would have returned to the Zhulian Water Pavilion with my wife to honor my master, and there would be no trip to the Western Regions at all. Ouyang Ye stiffened his face and said, "My father is too much! It not only embarrass me, but also embarrass my son." I'll go to him. β
Nangong Yu hurriedly said: "Madam, slow down, you know his character, if you turn your face, my little life will be lost, it's better not to provoke him." Ouyang Shan said: "What does the boy propose? Hey, so much to the son, the slave family really doesn't want to go." Nangong Yu said: "As long as my wife doesn't misunderstand that I am the prodigal son of Dengtu, I will be satisfied." The antidote to the cure is in the Sword Demon Villa, I can only go back with you, as long as the lady pretends to cooperate with me along the way, no matter what he asks you, you can just answer 'okay'." When I get the antidote, I will return to the Central Plains immediately, and I will not disturb my wife's purity. β
Ouyang Shan thought for a while and said, "Okay, I... I try to cooperate with Childe. It's all my father's trouble, and if he wants to make things difficult for you when he returns to the villa, I'll give you the antidote. Nangong Yu was overjoyed and said: "Thank you, madam, don't bother me anymore, and say goodbye." After saying that, he withdrew.
The next day they prepared all their dry food and water and walked to the endless Gobi. On the way, Ouyang Ye asked Nangong Yu about the conversation yesterday, and Nangong Yu said, "The situation is good." Ouyang Ye asked his daughter about her impression of Nangong Yu again, and Ouyang Shan replied, "It's okay." But when asked what to talk about, she didn't say much. Ouyang Ambition thought that it was reasonable to say some private words inconveniently, and the current progress was already a breakthrough, so he didn't ask anymore.
To say that it is late autumn weather at this time, even if it is not cold, it should not be hot, but at noon, the scorching sun is on the head, and there is no shade in the Gobi to escape the heat, Nangong Yu's head is drowsy, and his eyes can't be opened, all relying on Ouyang Ye to lead the way. Ouyang Guo fell asleep on the horse in a sluggish spirit, Nangong Yu was afraid that she would suffer from heat stroke, so he propped up his coat and put it on the horse's head to block the light for her. Ouyang Shan saw it in her eyes, and she was also moved in her heart.
The sun was so strong that no one had the strength to speak, and they finally stayed up until dusk, and the climate cooled down, Nangong Yu and the others all breathed a sigh of relief, and their spirits recovered a lot. Ouyang Ye took them to a wooden house built on a mound, he saw that the front of the house was full of yellow sand, the door was closed, and there were cobwebs, frowned, jumped off the horse and called: "Is the old man at home?" After calling for a long time and no one answered, he pushed the door and entered, and saw that the dilapidated hut was empty, the stove was covered with dust, and there was nothing to eat. Without saying a word, he pushed back and came to a well, looked at it, and scolded: "Damn! β
Nangong Yu and the others also tied their horses into the house, and Ouyang Ye said to them: "There is an old man living here, who makes a living by selling water, and it is estimated that he moved away because the well was dry. It hurts us. Ouyang Shan said: "The water in our bags is enough to spend one night, and we will find a water source on the road tomorrow." Ouyang Ye smiled and said: "Silly girl, I prepared two carriages of clear water for you when you go to the Central Plains, how do you know how terrible this Gobi is." There is no water source on the way for the next three days, can our water storage last so long?" Nangong Yu said: "Why don't we go back to yesterday's town and prepare more water and dry food before we go." Ouyang Ye shook his head and said: "If the old man expects it to be good, those birds of Tongtian Gang will not wait obediently in Xining, they must follow our traces far away, and go back to find death." β
Nangong Yu said: "Then let's bear with it, and save some drinks tomorrow." Ouyang Ye scolded: "At first glance, you are a fool who came to the Gobi Desert for the first time." Even if you don't drink water, Marco does. If you wear the horse out, the trouble is even greater. Besides, Guoguo has already shown signs of heat stroke, and her water can't be cut off at all. Nangong Yu said: "Now you can't move forward, you can't retreat, what do you say?" Ouyang Ye groaned for a moment, suddenly turned his head to look at Shen Jun, stepped forward and snatched the water bladder and the burden of dry food on his table, and said, "The old man will let you go now, get out." Shen Jun said angrily: "Don't use this tone to entertain the master!" Ouyang Ye scolded with a smile: "What the hell are you, if it weren't for the face of my future son-in-law, would you be able to live until now?" "Shen Jun has an impulsive personality, he usually doesn't care if he can fight or not, he came to fight hard in the morning, but now he has no weapons, and he doesn't even have the capital to fight hard, so he can only hold back his anger and turn away. Nangong Yu said: "Second Senior Brother... Shen Jun glanced at him and said, "Take care of yourself, don't be with this kind of person." So saying, he got out of the hut, got on his horse and left.
Ouyang Ye said: "Give me all your water bladders for safekeeping, I want to make sure that you don't die of thirst within three days." Then he carefully gathered the water, filled two bags, and said, "This bag is for Guoguo, and the other is for the three of us, and there is no water to drink tonight, so I will drink the first sip tomorrow at noon." Don't eat dry food, the more you eat, the thirstier you get, go to bed early, and hurry tomorrow morning while the weather is cold. β
Nangong Yu saw that this wooden house was only one room, so he closed the two benches and prepared to rest. Ouyang Ye said: "What are you doing?" Nangong Yu said: "Get ready to sleep." Ouyang Ye said: "You and Shan'er sleep in the house, and I sleep outside with Guoguo." Ouyang Shan said angrily: "Nonsense! Let's not talk about whether men and women give or receive kisses, how can Guoguo sleep outside." Ouyang Ye said: "Guoguo is unwell, even if she sleeps in the bed, she is not stable, I can sleep with her in my arms." Ouyang Shan said: "What about you, don't you sleep?" Ouyang Ye smiled: "It's okay if the old man doesn't sleep for three days and three nights, you can go." Ouyang Shan said: "That's not good, I'm a widow, how can I be in the same room with a man?" Ouyang Ye said: "Aren't you a widow when you get married?" Ouyang Shan hated and said, "You... She couldn't help it, so she snorted and went into the house. Ouyang Ye glared at Nangong Yu and said, "You don't want to go quickly." Nangong Yu had no choice but to follow in.
