Cold Emperor Loves Consort Ardently - C159
I fell back, covered in sweat, and the people behind me stopped supporting me.
Lying on the pillow, my eyes were still somewhat perplexed, my head was still rumbling loudly, the sounds of horses hooves outside were heard again, and the firelight shone on the tent, growing further and further away.
“Sleep early,” said Zaitsi from outside. “It’s okay, they’re gone. I won’t worry about you. Rest well tomorrow, you’ll have to go to the sheep farm. Don’t just eat and work.”
She almost burst into tears. Zaitsi, you knew I was the one they were going to leave. Is it really worth it to take such a big risk by protecting me like this?
The world quieted down again. The man beside me put away his dagger and looked at me with an aggressive gaze. He chuckled, “So it’s the Great Matriarch, Yun Wanyi. My trip was worthwhile.”
“I’m not.” I quibble.
His starry eyes lit up. “I’m not one of those idiots.”
If Zaitsi didn’t see me, maybe he just smiled a little. He would think I didn’t want to implicate them, so he left.
Although I had those thoughts in my mind, I didn’t leave by myself.
The man threatened to drag me along with him if he didn’t behave himself, so I got on the horse and sat behind him.
Actually, I had some thoughts as well. I didn’t want to implicate Zatechi, but this annoying fellow, if he had to be tired, then so be it. He shouldn’t be an ordinary person.
The horse jumped down from the mound, and I quickly reacted by grabbing onto his waist to prevent myself from falling down. He coldly snorted and said, “You aren’t afraid, but don’t think I’ve never killed anyone.
This person is really not an ordinary person, even I can feel that he is not afraid.
I also coldly snorted and said, “You speak so majestically, but why did you land here?” He still had to hold the woman hostage and leave.
“Woman, don’t think that you’re smart. If I’m unhappy, I can let you never have the chance to show off again.”
“How far the sky is and how far the heart is. You can take me a long way.” Let’s go, maybe we really can’t stay here any longer.
However, this kind of wandering, will never be able to step on the ground as light as a feather.
He stopped arguing with me and suddenly turned around to look at me. That big furry face and dark starry eyes really scared me.
“You don’t want anyone to find you in the great conflict?” His eyes narrowed, as if he was trying to read my mind.
I smiled and seriously said, “To be honest, you know what kind of hatred it is to be able to find me even after digging three feet into the ground. I killed someone, a very important person, so I have to escape, right? However, the Emperor was extremely furious. He couldn’t even catch a woman, how shameful! Do you want to take me to Lang Teng? That’s great. Humph, did you really think that something so stunning would happen in the palace that it would make people unable to think straight? You really look down on the court too much, and you even think that any one of them from the palace is much better than me. ”
He said, “I believe you. I’ve been to the Great War, but you’re not what you say you are. You’re a woman, and you can’t be trusted.”
It really was a failure. The purest Yun Zhiqiu. Yun Zhiqiu, who kept to his word, had also fallen into the trap of becoming a woman. It was my sorrow, alas.
When I didn’t answer him, he stopped talking and went off to some unknown place, one horse and two people.
But we were lost.
He angrily kicked his horse. “Useless thing.”
I gently caressed its back and looked at the snarling, angry man, who, I thought, was about the same as the big man, who would be angry and then not a head, who did not know that the road went on and on, and now, I did not know where this place was, but was surrounded by lush grass, and from the highest vantage point, I could not see any cattle or sheep.
Not so good. The weather seems to have changed. The blowing wind made my hair flutter. I gathered my hair and tied it with a rope from my waist. I sat on the ground and looked at the sky worriedly.
Rain was the worst in this prairie. There was no way to avoid it. In addition, lightning struck the silver-white fire serpents, as if they were in front of one’s eyes. It was extremely soul-stirring.
The horse couldn’t go. I looked back at him and saw him looking at me.
I said lightly, “Did you see anything?”
“An unfathomable woman.” He said very softly, “Why can’t you guess?”
I laughed and patted my red face. “Don’t you ever guess, I said in my book. If you keep guessing, you’ll fall in love with someone.”
He scoffed disdainfully, “Just like you, your grandpa still doesn’t like you. Your grandpa’s women can have as many as he wants, you don’t even have a place to stand, and the women you guys are acting like are as soft as grass. What use is there in giving birth to a child that is so difficult that you can’t even hold a chicken, only knowing how to play around with music, chess, calligraphy, and paintings. You don’t have enough to eat, don’t even put on airs.”
So you’re saying that all the women we have against each other are unnecessary?” “Really, look down on him. Is his wolfish woman as strong as a bear, and as capable as Zatsi?
“Isn’t it? “What a troublesome thing, especially for women in the great conflict, it’s the most useless.” The more he spoke, the more it made sense to him.
I also kindly said, “That’s a woman of our generation, not a pig. A nest can have more than ten pigs, and you can’t only eat grass. I think you, Lang Teng, are probably the wolf girl. Such a powerful woman, do you want to eat grass or bones?”
His eyes narrowed, “You can say it again. Don’t think that I’m a good person.”
He could only speak of others without rebutting them.
I stood up and faced the wind as I said, “Although the women of the Great War are extremely weak, the children they produce are strong and fierce. They can protect their family and protect their country without teaching the werewolves how to take a step.”
He laughed heartily and then laid down on the grass on all fours. His laughter was so vigorous that it shook the heaven and earth.
Then he stood up and said, “Let’s go, the woman who gives birth to a strong and powerful child. Master will bring you Lang Teng to be a guest. See, women and pets are different from pampered cats and dogs.”
I didn’t make a sound, but snorted coldly. Who does he think he is, to bring me Lang Teng as a guest? He’s obviously a man who escaped and knows how to get lost.
I wanted to jump on the horse and leave him, but I couldn’t ride a horse. Zaitsi had said he would teach me, and I was scared the moment I got on the horse, so I didn’t learn anything.
The soles of my feet were raw, and I groaned inwardly, but he strode on, and I had no strength left, and the grass tripped me to the ground.
He looked back and didn’t have any intention of helping me up. Instead, he said coldly, “Hurry and get up. It’s going to rain soon.”
“Very tired.” I got up. “I’m very hungry. I can’t walk anymore.”
“You can stay, and I can leave you, and the wolves will gnaw you to the bone.”
He’s not a threat, he said, and he really did go straight to the point.
I clenched my teeth and got up to walk, my shoes were already bleeding and I wanted to scream from the pain, but I just couldn’t move. I fell on the grass and saw him leading his horse down the grassy slope, slowly disappearing into the green, and it would take him a long time to walk out on this endless prairie, and maybe he wouldn’t even be able to walk me out.
I stopped, panting as I watched the long tail of grass waving in front of me.
It’s so quiet. No one should be able to find me here anymore.
Beautiful prairie, so soft, so green, but just as the wolfman said, there are unknown dangers in the prairie, wolves, and other things.
“Come up.” The angry voice called from the side.
I turned my head to see him come back and pat the horse’s back and tell me to come up.
What made me angry was that this arrogant fellow actually didn’t bring any rations with him when he came out to roam the vast plains of the northwest.
It was late in the afternoon when the heavy rain fell and the sky darkened. The cold wind made us shiver, so we had to stay by the horses.
Lightning flashed in front of my eyes, and the horse whinnied uneasily, and the rumble was in my ears, and I was so scared that I covered my ears with my hands and he grabbed me and threw me back and the horse broke free of the rope and ran off into the darkness.
Why was it just him and me? The rain drenched me to the point that I couldn’t even open my eyes. A snow-white light always flashed in front of my eyes, as if it was trying to take away my life.
I’m afraid of thunder and rain, and if anyone comes to my rescue now, whoever it is, I’ll forgive him.
Am I asking for him? I think so.
Didn’t you say that you would dig three feet out of the ground and dig me out? Now that I’m here, I’m on the prairie in the northwest, and I’m afraid to let the white light cut through me time and time again, and you haven’t come yet.
With a loud bang, I turned around and hugged the Langton, burying my face in his arms. I don’t want to look, I don’t want to listen, I want to feel it with all my might, I’m not the only one here.
His hands were stiff, but he covered my ears in the end. His thick hands moved around my neck for a while, and somehow I couldn’t keep my eyes open.
The rain was still falling and the thunder was still ringing, but it seemed to be quite far away.
When I opened my eyes, the rain had lessened a lot. The sky was so dark that it felt like it was about to fall. The wind was blowing from all directions. He kept walking with his back towards me.
He could no longer hide the hunger in his stomach. His entire body was drenched and he felt very uncomfortable.
I whispered, “Do you think we’ll die on the prairie?”
“Nope.” He arrogantly said, “If you die, Yours Truly will not die.”
What an arrogant tone. However, there was nothing left to worry about. If he had the strength, then he might as well endure it and not get hungry.
He carried me through one mound after another, and I prayed to see the nomads, or the cattle, but there was nothing.
Looking back to the boundless drizzle of the sky, I saw that the grass in front of me was still green to the point where my eyes almost turned green, as if it had no end in sight.
He could carry me for one more day, but what about another?
So what if he was powerful, he was still a human after all.
I don’t know anything about him, but I don’t think he’s a bad guy. If he was a bad guy, he would have killed me long ago.
The roar was endless, and we all became happy. He sped up the slope with his feet. I’ve been in the prairie for so long, and I can hear it. It’s the sound of cattle running.
However, upon reaching the slope, he sucked in a breath of cold air.
Yes, it’s an ox, but it’s a wild bull without an owner on the prairie. A large group of buffaloes are running as if they were frightened, and wherever they step on, they’ll definitely turn into mush.
I kept looking back, hoping they would slow down, but no matter how slow we were, we couldn’t outrun them.
The sky was filled with people. Fortunately, there was a small lake not far away. He ran down, but the mud kept on sinking down.
He scolded me in the language of the wolf, and carried me high on his back.
When the bison passed by, its terrifying speed and strength made the entire prairie tremble. They didn’t come to where there was a lake, but instead brushed past the mud and splashed it on my face.
Come on, come on, he’s going to fall, my feet are in the mud.
I put my hand up to cover his nose to keep him from breathing too hard.
When the bison were almost done, he threw me hard on the grass, and I tore off my belt and threw it at him so he could catch it and pull him up with all his might.
He can save me, and I don’t want to give up on him.
Seeing that there were still a few more calves coming from behind, I ordered him to grab them and ran out with my belt stretched out.
He called out, “Come back, you will be trampled to death.”
I won’t be able to walk out of this vast prairie.
At least I was able to dodge a few of the cattle that almost hit me. A small bison rushed up from the right and I shouted, “Hold on tight!”
When it hit the belt, the huge brute force charged forward and the Langton also used this force to rush out of the muddy water. He and I were dragged along by the ox, so we stopped only after the belt was broken, but the left side of our face, arms and waist were all burning with pain.
The drizzle stopped, and I turned to look at him. He looked so bedraggled in the dirt, but his eyes were as beautiful as the stars.
“Wise and brave woman, my name is Lang Xiao.” “No,” he said.
I smiled, and this was the first time he’d ever laid eyes on me, the first time he’d ever looked at a woman.
Sometimes, people were really strange. Even when one was in a hopeless situation, they would still feel proud and happy for something that was so rare and formless.
He held out his hand, and his starlike eyes looked at me gently. “For the first time, I don’t think it’s ugly to be a woman in a great conflict.”
“Is it because we know that we can’t fight with the heavens and the earth, and we can’t walk across the plains, so we don’t hate them?”
He smiled and shook his head: “No, woman, I will take you out of the prairie and back to the Langton. I will take you back to the LangTeng.”
He was talking about carrying, not grabbing, and I didn’t understand why. I only found out later.
I weakly laughed. “I don’t have any strength left in my entire body. I can only lie on the ground and wait for death to come. Wherever you want me to take you, I’ll go.”
“There is a rule in the Wasteland. The woman who saved him is the woman he brought back, the woman he has loved for his entire life.” He muttered as he carried me on his back.
