Dianxia Qingcheng - Chapter 235
The two of them opened two rooms. The innkeeper saw Zhao Litang’s face was not good, and he just thought that the two of them were also here to stay in the store to recuperate, and they didn’t want their money for anything. There is no charge for any inn you stay in.
The shop assistant led the two upstairs, and the two entered the same room together. After the shop assistant left, Alanyue hurried over and closed the door tightly.
Zhao Litang didn’t look at him, went to the bed and sat down, closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, and began to mobilize the inner strength of his whole body.
A Lanyue took out a lot of medicines from the package he was carrying, which he stole from the military camp. Now that they were neatly arranged, he sat on the stool and looked at Zhao Litang beside the bed. .
The general’s face was still dirty and gray, but the handsome and determined eyebrows were still so good-looking, A Lanyue held her breath, for fear of disturbing him.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Litang suddenly opened his eyes and looked straight over.
Alanyue hurriedly turned her eyes away, holding a medicine box in her hand, and murmured, “General… Otherwise, I’ll help you get the medicine first…”
Not hearing Zhao Litang’s answer, Alanyue raised her head, but saw Zhao Litang was still looking at him, he whispered again, “General?”
“Yeah.” Zhao Litang only replied in a deep voice, and then closed his eyes again.
A Lanyue came over with a few pill boxes, walked lightly, and stood by the bed.
He stretched out his hand and undid the clothes on Zhao Litang’s body, revealing the deep and shallow scars in front of him, some of which no longer bleed, but some began to ooze blood again because of the day-to-day running.
A Lanyue’s movements were a little more gentle, and the scars seemed to be on his body, making him a little more painful than Zhao Litang.
The small palm was dipped in the ointment, and softly smeared a few times on a long whip mark on the chest, feeling that the body under his hand seemed to be stiff, A Lanyue looked up and saw Zhao Litang brow slightly. He frowned, his chin was sternly tensed, and he didn’t make a sound.
There was a sudden throbbing in his heart, he lowered his head slightly, and blew lightly on the scar, until his wrist was suddenly grabbed and lifted, Alanyue realized what she had just done.
He stared blankly at Zhao Litang, his ears turned red, he stuttered and didn’t know how to explain, “General…General…I…I just…”
– A finger suddenly rested on his lips, blocking the rest of his words back in his throat, Zhao Litang looked down at him, and his eyes signaled him not to make a sound.
Alanyue swallowed involuntarily, and his lips moved on that finger. He blinked at Zhao Litang, kept leaning against his chest, and didn’t dare to move.
Just then, a small sound came from outside the door.
Alanyue suddenly became nervous, she turned her head slightly and wanted to take a look at the door, but who knew that a hand directly pinched his cheeks and turned his face back, and then an arm came across his waist, with strength It was very big, and when I hugged him and lifted it hard, I volleyed him and threw him on the inside of the bed.
A Lanyue was stunned by the fall, and before she could react, the candlestick in the house was extinguished, and a body was next to her.
“Will…”
Zhao Litang reached out and covered Alanyue’s mouth fiercely, and put the other hand on her lips to make a silent gesture.
In the darkness, A Lanyue could still see Zhao Litang’s eyes clearly. They were dark and deep, and they couldn’t see the end at a glance. They were full of warnings and threats.
Alanyue was almost breathless under his cover. The two of them were lying on the bed together, so close that they could smell each other’s breaths and their hair was entangled.
Alanyue nodded vigorously, but Zhao Litang still did not let him go.
At this moment, a voice came from outside the door.
“Hey, the light was still on just now, why did it go out when I came up, and I wanted to come and give me something to eat…”
Outside the door is the second shopkeeper. He glanced at Alanyue’s room next to him. Seeing that it was also dark, he muttered again, “Why are you going to bed so early…”
As he spoke, the sound of footsteps left.
The two people on the bed remained in that position and didn’t move until the sound of the outside was gone, and Zhao Litang’s strength eased.
Alanyue took a deep breath. He was so suffocated that his face was flushed. .
I don’t know how long I’ve been lying down, Alanyue’s body is too tense, and half of his body is numb. He can’t help it. He raised his head and glanced at Zhao Litang secretly, but he didn’t know when he had closed his eyes, as if he was asleep .
Alanyue stretched out her hand and shook it in front of his eyes, but he didn’t respond at all, he really fell asleep.
A Lanyue suddenly relaxed a lot, put her hands under her cheeks, and stared straight at Zhao Litang’s face.
Under the afterglow of the full moonlight, he quietly stretched out a hand and traced it along the curve of Zhao Litang’s face in the air, the corner of his lips raised slightly unconsciously.
Further down, is the exposed collarbone and strong chest.
Alanyue looked back in a panic, not daring to look anymore, he wanted to get up quietly and go back to his room.
Unfortunately, before he could sit up, he realized that Zhao Litang’s clothes were firmly pressed under him.
He pulled it carefully for a while, but he was afraid that Zhao Litang would wake up, so his movements were gentler and he couldn’t pull it out.
Pulling and pulling, he also yawned a lot, and he was always worried during the daytime running around, so he was very tired.
The hand that was pulling the clothes gradually lost its strength, and the breathing of the two people on the bed became even and long, one after another.
The next day, when Zhao Litang woke up, he was covered with a quilt and felt that his energy was much better. He hadn’t had such a good sleep in a long time. The room was empty, and he was alone.
He sat up from the bed, still feeling a little weak, the door happened to be pushed open, and A Lanyue came in with two bowls.
“General, you are awake!”
A Lanyue’s tone was full of surprise, she put the bowl on the table, then walked over to the bed, and helped Zhao Litang to sit on the stool.
– One bowl holds a bowl of hot noodle soup, and the other bowl holds a black and bitter concoction.
“General, don’t worry, I borrowed the kitchen to cook the noodles and the medicine myself. You’ll be fine. You eat the noodles first, and then drink the medicine.”
Zhao Litang looked at the bowl of noodles, but did not move.
Alanyue thought for a while and said, “General, if you are worried, I can take a bite and see…”
As he spoke, he picked up the chopsticks on the side, and it seemed that he really planned to take a bite first, but the chopsticks were snatched away.
Zhao Litang started to eat noodles unceremoniously. His stomach was empty for a long time, and he ate a bowl of noodles in three or two, and even finished the soup.
Alanyue said, “If it’s not enough, I’ll do more.”
He didn’t expect that the general would eat so cleanly, and he thought that the general would not believe that he would not eat at all.
Zhao Litang didn’t speak, picked up the bowl of medicine next to him and drank it, and then walked back to the bed by himself.
As if thinking of something, he raised his eyes and asked, “Where did you sleep last night?”
“In…in my room…” Alanyue replied.
“Well,” Zhao Litang replied lightly, and it seemed that last night was indeed his own illusion.
“I’ll rest for a while and leave at noon.”
After he finished speaking, he lay back on the bed and continued to close his eyes to rest.
A Lanyue cleaned up the table and didn’t go back to her room, she just sat at the table, far away from Zhao Litang, glanced at him from time to time, and then moved away.
Only at night did he dare to stare at Zhao Litang so recklessly, but in the daytime, he dared not.
Zhao Litang slept until noon, and slept very lightly. When he woke up, he felt that his strength had recovered a lot. It seemed that the medicines A Lanyue gave him were all excellent and had quick results.
After leaving the inn, A Lanyue was still sitting on the horse, and Zhao Litang walked in front to lead the horse.
The two went to the tailor’s shop to buy casual clothes. After leaving the town, it would be very strange to wear military uniforms.
Change your clothes and move on. This small town is not big, and you soon reached the gate of the city.
After leaving the city gate, Zhao Litang got on his horse.
“General, where are we going next?”
Zhao Litang rode his horse and waved his whip, “Continue to the south.”
The further south you go, the farther you will be from the Celestial Empire, and the deeper you go inside the barbarians, the more danger you will face.
However, Zhao Litang also has his own considerations. Amule is currently trapped in the frontline and cannot escape. Once he returns to the camp and finds that he is gone, he will definitely send someone to chase north as soon as possible. It will be overtaken, and it may even run directly into the barbarian army returning to the camp.
But if you do the opposite, go south and go to other cities within the barbarian tribe, you may not be discovered for a while, and you will have enough time to heal your wounds, and then see if there is a chance. Send the information back first.
The two ran for another afternoon on horseback, instead of taking the main road, they took the inaccessible path. They did not see the next city until the evening, but they saw a ruined temple in the wilderness.
Zhao Litang pulled his horse and stopped before the temple was destroyed. He got off the horse first, but his footsteps stumbled a bit. He walked to the temple and took a look. .
After tying up the horse, Zhao Litang walked directly into the temple, ignoring Alanyue who was still sitting on the horse.
A Lanyue jumped down carefully from the horse, looking at Zhao Litang’s back, she was only a little disappointed in her heart, so she also stepped up.
There was straw in the temple, as if someone had slept in it, Zhao Litang went over and lay down, then closed his eyes.
Alanyue sat down beside him, the surroundings were pitch-dark, and the temple did not know where the gods and Buddhas were worshipped.
There was no sound at all, only the whistling of the wind.
A Lanyue was a little scared and didn’t dare to sleep at all. She curled up beside Zhao Litang, leaning closer and closer to him.
But Zhao Litang didn’t react as if he didn’t notice his fear at all.
