The candles in the military tent have been extinguished, and the tent is dark.
Huo Changze had excellent eyesight, and with a little light from the bonfire outside, he could clearly see Shen Jiao sleeping.
Huo Changze wiped it with the water she used, then warmly went to the bed and hugged Shen Jiao.
Huo Changze frowned as soon as he hugged him.
In the past, when I held her, there was still some flesh on her body, but now it was all bones to the touch. It was even thinner when lying on the bed. Huo Changze stood up and looked at her, his face became sharper, and this wrist...
Huo Changze didn't dare to hold it hard, for fear of accidentally breaking it.
Huo Changze's brows furrowed more and more tightly, and he began to wonder if he had made a wrong decision in bringing Shen Jiao here.
At this time, Shen Jiao suddenly snorted softly, as if she was about to wake up.
Huo Changze didn't care anymore, thinking that he would take good care of him in the future. So he hugged Shen Jiao and patted her gently, coaxing her to fall asleep again.
…
They rested for two days before setting off again.
This time we took the official road, which was smooth and much better than before. Shen Jiao slowly regained some energy.
Soon the march arrived at a town near the border.
The border is desolate, but such a town is already the most prosperous place within a hundred miles.
It was already very close to the destination, but considering that the march was tiring and it was getting late, Huo Changze ordered everyone to set up camp outside the town.
Huo Changze did not restrict their movements. The soldiers could also go shopping in the town and buy some things. After all, it will be difficult to come out again in the future.
There was an inn in the town, and after Huo Changze took care of everything, he took her there to rest for the night.
Shen Jiao didn't show any pretense when faced with Huo Changze's proposal, she immediately agreed. Because the beds in the military camp are really too hard! Her whole body ached from sleeping in the past two days, and she felt no energy anywhere.
After Huo Changze changed into casual clothes, the two entered the town.
As the soldiers poured into the town together, the shops that usually closed early became busy.
The soldiers simply lived this day as if it were their last day in their lives, having a great time eating, drinking and having fun in the town.
Huo Changze didn't say much when he saw this, as long as they didn't do anything that violated military orders.
Huo Changze and Shen Jiao walked together in the crowd. Because of the dim weather and Huo Changze's change of clothes, the soldiers did not recognize him as their general.
Shen Jiao was not very interested in this town. After seeing the prosperity of Shangjing, everything seemed boring again. And I didn’t see anything new.
Huo Changze asked several inns, but for some reason, the inns that usually had many empty rooms were now fully booked.
When they arrived at the last restaurant, they received a reply that it was still full.
Huo Changze couldn't help but frown and asked, "Is it really full?"
"of course--"
Before the landlady finished speaking, Huo Changze put two ingots of silver on the table.
The landlady's eyes lit up when she looked at the silver. She changed the topic and said, "Don't worry, sir. I'll go and ask for you right now." After saying that, she quickly put the silver in her pocket.
The landlady went upstairs and knocked on the door, and a burly soldier came out.
The landlady smiled sarcastically: "Master Jun, there is a young man from outside who wants your room. Please pay this price."
The landlady took out a piece of silver and put it into his hand, "Do you think it's okay?"
The soldier wanted to get angry, but looked at the ingot of silver in his hand and hesitated. Just when the landlady thought this could be done, a delicate voice suddenly came from the room: "Master Jun...come on~"
The soldier immediately changed his mind, returned the money to the proprietress and prepared to close the door and go in.
How could the boss's wife watch the fat duck fly away? She immediately became anxious and stepped forward to hold the door to prevent him from closing it. "Hey, hey! Master Jun, please think about it again."
The soldier was also a little angry, "Why don't I give you this money! If you don't leave, I think you don't want to live anymore!"
In the end, the landlady could only apologize and leave angrily.
The landlady went downstairs and returned the two ingots of silver to Huo Changze, "Sir... you have also seen that the military master is unwilling to change, so you should go elsewhere."
Shen Jiao quietly took a look at Huo Changze's expression, only to see him suddenly break into a nasty smile.
Huo Changze then went directly upstairs to the room where he was just now and knocked on the door.
After a while, the person inside cursed and opened the door while getting dressed, "You don't want to fucking live anymore..."
The next second he saw who it was, he was so frightened that he almost knelt down, "General, general...!"
Huo Changze directly stated his intention to come and said, "I want to live here."
The soldier was immediately frightened. He lost any of his arrogance and responded quickly: "Yes...yes...I'll leave right now."
The woman inside had a charming voice: "Master, what's wrong? This is..."
"Let's go! Let's go!" The soldier didn't want to say anything more to her. He put his coat on her head and quickly led her out.
The proprietress was stunned for a moment, wondering who the young man in front of her was, yet she managed to convince the official in one go.
Huo Changze went downstairs and handed the money to the landlady.
The landlady didn't dare accept it now, and Huo Changze didn't force it. He put the money directly on the counter and said calmly: "Replace everything in that room. Use the best."
Upon hearing this, the landlady nodded repeatedly and immediately asked the waiter to go to the room and change everything.
Huo Changze pulled Shen Jiao into the guest room, and Shen Jiao looked around. The guest room is not big and the things inside are very basic. But it's quite clean and tidy.
Shen Jiao didn't mind it, after all, the conditions were much better than sleeping outside.
But the thing is, this room has a queen bed.
Shen Jiao looked at Huo Changze and asked: "...Then how can we sleep?"
Huo Changze's eyes were open, as if he had not sneaked into Shen Jiao's bed to sleep in the past few days. He pretended that he was not very willing and sighed and said:
"There's nothing we can do about it, we can only sleep together."
…
Across the screen, Huo Changze felt distraught as he listened to the sound of Shen Jiao bathing.
I wish I could rush in immediately and deal with her severely.
But this idea was quickly rejected by him.
This would be too rough, not to mention she is timid, and it would probably scare her to the point of crying for days and nights.
Huo Changze thought about it again. Anyway, if we sleep together tonight, we can sleep with her in his arms openly. Maybe he can do something even more extreme...
Huo Changze's heart was filled with excitement, but soon reality hit him in the face.
After Huo Changze briefly rinsed and came out, he saw a roll of quilt placed in the middle of the big bed, dividing the bed into left and right sides.
And Shen Jiao slept on the right side, wrapping herself tightly.
Huo Changze laughed angrily when he saw this scene.
Where has he not touched Shen Jiao? She had been kissed thoroughly by him, and now she still had to sleep across the quilt.
In the end, Huo Changze resisted the urge to throw out the quilt in the middle, and lay down on the left side of the big bed with a dark face.
Huo Changze closed his eyes and his breathing soon stabilized, but Shen Jiao never fell asleep.
She had always been very fond of beds, and had finally adapted to sleeping in a military tent. Now that she suddenly changed places, it was really difficult to fall asleep quickly.
She looked sideways at Huo Changze, saw that he was asleep, and then looked at the roof.
Just as Shen Jiao was counting sheep silently in her mind, she suddenly heard a sound.
It seems to be coming from the room next to it...
Shen Jiao held her breath, trying to hear clearly what the sound was. The sound suddenly became louder, and the man's voice and the woman's scream were mixed together, with an ambiguous gasp that made the heart beat faster.
Shen Jiao, who heard clearly now: "!!!"
Shen Jiao's face turned red and she covered her ears not to listen.
But because this guest room was so simple, the sounds coming from the side seemed to be right next to her ears, completely unable to be isolated.
Shen Jiao suddenly remembered the soldier and the woman who originally lived in this room... Could it be that they were too...
No wonder the first thing Huo Changze did when he came in was to replace everything.
Shen Jiao listened to the whole thing with a blushing face. When there was completely silence, she took off the hand covering her ears.
Then... the room on the other side started again...
Shen Jiao was about to collapse hearing this familiar voice.
Just when she was about to let the system play the Heart-Cleaning Spell for her, a fiery body suddenly appeared behind her and hugged her tightly.
She could even feel all the changes in his body.
Hot breath sprayed in her ears, and the man's voice was hoarse, full of heavy desire.
"Jiaojiao..."
How could she forget that Huo Changze was lying next to her!
