Zhou Xu stared at Madam, looking down from her confused and misty starry eyes, to her reddish cherry lips, her snow-white neck, slender, and covered with a wide crane cloak, like a fairy's feather coat.
"Madam calls Zhou Lang to let me listen." Zhou Xu kissed Madam's ear.
Xiao Luolan blushed, caught a glimpse of the sky outside, and pushed Sect Leader Zhou to ask him to pay attention.
Zhou Xu naturally knew what Madam meant, and he chuckled.
Seeing that he didn't give up, Xiao Luolan had no choice but to open her mouth and shout: "Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Xu heard his wife's soft voice, which still had the aftertaste of a thin breath that had not calmed down. Because he was afraid that others would hear it, the volume was very low, making it sound more and more delicate and timid, and his Adam's apple moved.
"Call me again."
Xiao Luolan saw that Sect Master Zhou was keeping his promise and did not continue to kiss her. She hurriedly straightened her clothes. Seeing him staring at her with burning eyes, she called out again: "Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Xu felt soft after hearing this.
Xiao Luolan also noticed something strange and closed her mouth and stopped talking, but her face became increasingly red.
Zhou Xu stared at the madam's peony-like crimson color, and took her hand over. Xiao Luolan curled up her fingertips because they were burned, and sweat broke out on her nervous forehead. Although the doors and windows of the carriage were closed, there was still a distance. Not far away from the carriage were guards and doormen, and further away was the slightly noisy military camp.
In the carriage, Zhou Xu watched his wife's snow-white and soft hands being pulled by him and placed on the dark robe.
Xiao Luolan was hugged in Zongzhu Zhou's arms, and the hot breath hit her face. She looked at the brown wall of the carriage opposite, and couldn't hear anything for a moment. The sounds outside also became silent, and she could only She heard the man's heavy and messy breathing hanging on her neck.
Until a long time passed.
Only then did Xiao Luolan feel that she was finally back to herself.
She was still kneeling upright on the cushion, her clothes were intact, and the crane cloak surrounded her whole body, but the exposed neck was stained with a layer of crimson, and even the tips of her ears were extremely red.
Zhou Xu didn't care about the wrinkled robe on his body, found a handkerchief and moved it over. Just as he was about to speak, his mouth was covered by the extremely shy lady.
Xiao Luolan's cheeks were red, and she knew what the man was going to say without even opening his mouth. Ever since they got married, whatever kindness, enthusiasm, kindness, and ability to read poetry and books that Sect Master Zhou had pretended to be in front of her were all fake!
"I will do it myself."
Zhou Xu looked at his wife's hand and couldn't move his eyes away.
Xiao Luolan finally allowed herself to accept what happened on the carriage. She returned the handkerchief to him and did not dare to call Zhou Lang, the leader of the Zhou clan, for fear that he would get excited again: "Why don't you sort it out."
Zhou Xu took advantage of Madam returning the veil to him and held Madam's hand. He looked at Madam's snow-white fingertips in fascination.
"Mr. Zhou." Xiao Luolan was a little confused by the look in Clan Master Zhou's eyes, so she had no choice but to call out again: "Don't you have any official duties today?"
Zhou Xu raised his eyes and looked at his wife, so dignified and clean.
"I've finished my work." Zhou Xu's heart was filled with dark thoughts of Gu Qian, and he replied with a smile on his face: "It won't rain outside. Later, Li Xun will take the Sijie captives and use the smoke method to find the bones hidden in the cave. Yaku people.”
As for what happened after he found it, Zhou Xu didn't say anything because he didn't want to scare his wife.
Xiao Luolan wanted to take her hand back and go out for some air, but her hand was held tightly by Clan Master Zhou. Just when she wanted him to let go, she saw Clan Master Zhou holding her hand and using only her fingertips. Touched on her lips.
Xiao Luolan was startled.
She was very familiar with her own hands, but the smell on her hands at this moment was extremely unfamiliar, with a strong aura of aggression.
Xiao Luolan looked at Sect Leader Zhou and found that his eyes were frighteningly dark.
The beauty's jade finger gently touches the small cherry sandalwood mouth.
Zhou Xu suddenly thought of this sentence.
He also looked at his wife and found that she was a little uneasy, like a frightened little animal, her intuition was so keen. Zhou Xugang really wanted to dirty his wife, but in the end he suppressed the dark thoughts in his heart.
Sometimes, Zhou Xu feels like he is two people, one is himself who respects, loves and respects his wife in front of her, and the other is himself who just wants to dirty her and make her cry.
The latter thought became stronger and stronger, beyond his control.
"Madam, Miss Zheng is here to see you."
The sound of winter snow sounded outside the carriage.
Xiao Luolan pulled her hand back, without looking at Sect Master Zhou, and said in a panic: "I'm going to find Yu Xin to see what's wrong with her." After saying that, she picked up the hem of her skirt and got out of the carriage.
After returning to the tent, I found Miss Zheng sitting inside, with a small black clay pot and a special fine-tip writing brush placed on the table.
"Mother." Zheng Yuxin stood up happily.
Xiao Luolan washed her hands first to calm herself down, then sat opposite the little girl and relaxed her mood.
"Do you want me to draw it for you?"
Zheng Yuxin nodded shyly: "Thank you, mistress."
Xiao Luolan looked at the pattern carefully, and then practiced it eight/nine times on the paper. The pattern on the back of the little girl's hand was not difficult. After the drawing was smooth, Xiao Luolan took the back of the little girl's hand and gave it to her. She paints patterns.
Zheng Yuxin looked at the mistress who was carefully drawing patterns for her, and her face turned red.
After Xiao Luolan finished the painting, he received the wild fruits collected by the little girl.
Zheng Yuxin was sitting next to her mistress, feeling very satisfied and happy. Seeing that her mistress was absent-minded, she asked, "Mistress, are you worried?"
Xiao Luolan looked at this carefree and innocent little girl, who had a lot of worries and no one to talk to. Hearing the little girl's concern, she thought for a while and said: "Yuxin, if you have someone you like, you can What will happen to him?"
Zheng Yuxin thought for a moment: "How much do you like it?"
Xiao Luolan thought of Sect Master Zhou's usual attitude towards her and the meticulous care he took in her: "I should, I should like her very much."
Sect Master Zhou must like her quite a lot, but...he seems to be a little bit, Xiao Luolan can't think of a suitable adjective for the time being.
"If you like him very much." Zheng Yuxin frowned, as if he couldn't imagine that scene, and said: "If you like him very much, then be nice to him. Of course, he must also be nice to me, otherwise I won't like him. .”
Xiao Luolan laughed when he heard the little girl's words.
The little girl herself has never been in love, so asking her would be too much.
After Miss Zheng left, Xiao Luolan looked at her brown crane cloak. Only the cuffs were dyed a little with the dye that the little girl brought. If you don't look carefully, you can't tell. If she was wearing the white fox fur that morning, I'm afraid it needs to be washed.
She looked outside the tent and remembered the look in the carriage that Clan Master Zhou had given her.
At that time, she could clearly feel that Zongzhu Zhou wanted her to kiss off... the remnants of his on her fingertips.
Later, for some unknown reason, he let go again and looked at her with that suppressed but actually crazy look.
Xiao Luolan thought for a while and finally found a word to describe what Sect Leader Zhou did on the carriage.
"A bit perverted."
Who in the right mind would do that?
In the distant sky, the autumn wind blows thousands of miles, and wild geese fly south.
Chapter 76
Wu Yi Lang flew high in the sky, occasionally turning his eyes to look down. Most of the time, he enjoyed the freedom of thousands of miles in the sky and the autumn wind on the grassland. The old man's loud and vicissitudes of life came from below. The singing is a ditty that the owner often hums.
Then, Wu Yilang's pale yellow eyes looked at the hunchbacked old man holding a large banner with the word "You" underneath.
In the autumn wind, the military flags were flying, the horseshoes were beating, and the old man's voice carried the unique desolation and longness of the North, and was carried further away by the autumn wind.
"The wild geese are flying south and the grass is yellow!"
"The dust fills the sky and the bride cries!"
"The grass will grow again and again next year."
"Whose son! Never come back! Never come back!" The old hunchback waved the banner in his hand vigorously. The bottom of the banner was as red as blood, and the word "you" was as black as ink. The pole was upright, and the banner rustled in the wind.
At first it was just the old man singing loudly on a whim, but later the rear cavalry who were hanging out with him also began to sing. Hu Dali followed the captain and was responsible for guarding the prisoners. The most important one was the one who led the Gu Lun Wu Gu this time. Dudagula, his hands were tied behind his back with a tendon rope and he was thrown on the horse. His body was stained with blood. Hu Dali whipped him when he saw him dishonestly on the road. After a few whippings, the man became honest as expected. When he was first captured, he was on the verge of death. He even wanted to commit suicide. His mouth was stuffed with a ball of dirty cloth and he was starved for three days.
Oh, the horses are all rushing to eat the food.
However, three days later, this famous general in the Gulunwu ancient tribe became extremely thin and haggard, with red eyes, because all the people he led with him died. Hu Dali had no sympathy at all, and even laughed loudly a few times. Bite the dry biscuits, bite them hard, as if you are eating the flesh and blood of the invaders.
"No return, barren tombs, hundreds of miles without human habitation, no human habitation!"
Hundreds of people sang the song and soon infected most of them. The sound was as loud as thunder, shaking the whole country. The banner with the word "You" in the old hunchback's hand was lifted higher. At this moment, his back was supported by the flag as if it was standing up to the sky. He had never been The crooked hunched back seemed to straighten.
"Joking about the flock of geese in the flock of wild geese, leaving it to him for a good year."
"The new nest is like a forest. I will never return to the north if I am happy!"
"Quickly fetch the sweet rice, and quickly bring the golden jade cage."
"The head goose is wearing Zhuangyuan red, which attracts the saints to be happy from heaven."
"Ten huks of pearls and ten thousand buckets of gold will be given to the dog pigeon."
"Thousands of people are waiting to be slaughtered and their heads will be slaughtered. If you don't teach Li Ge, you will be everywhere in Youzhou."
After Hu Dali finished singing, he picked up the water bag as a wine bag and took a sip. His blood surged in his heart, and he wanted to pick up a long knife and chop him upside down, killing his head. He laughed loudly, and the laughter of his colleagues around him Mixed together, there were aftershocks.
On the carriage in the middle, Xiao Luolan listened to the deafening laughter and finally understood that the name of the ditty that Zhou Zongzhu often hummed was actually Youzhou Lige. She opened the curtains and looked at the person who was either smiling heartily or roaring loudly or The cavalrymen who were whispering softly were all singing this Youzhou tune without exception, causing their voice to be the only one in the empty grassland.
Autumn is high and cloudy.
After passing Niujiao Mountain, their marching speed increased again, and the prisoners had become much less. Every time they arrived at a new grassland, the scouts would conduct reconnaissance in advance. They also encountered several small attacks on the road, but Xiao Luolan She was too far away, and she often didn't know what happened until the attack was over.
There were no casualties on their side. Xiao Luolan stared at the cavalrymen. The dead comrades would be turned into a small earthen jar and brought to their families, and they would also receive generous pensions, money, food or It is to give land to support their families.
"Madam, are you feeling noisy?" Dongxue saw her mistress looking outside and poured her a cup of tea.
"No." Xiao Luolan turned her head: "This song is very nice."
She recalled what she had asked when she was in Taiyang County. Did Sect Master Zhou discover that their identities were false at that time? It was much earlier than she thought.
Xiao Luolan's mind wandered for a while, listening to the description of Chang'an in the Youzhou tune, and then comparing it to the uninhabited atmosphere of the previous tune, she felt a sense of absurd extravagance, like the last carnival before the end of a grand empire. .
What does Chang'an in this world look like?
Xiao Luolan has often heard the word Chang'an since she came to this world, and it is even more indirectly related to it. Because of her dress and Mandarin, she was regarded as a noble person from Chang'an by Zhou Zongzhu and others. Only then was she slightly regarded by Zongzhu Zhou. Take it with you on the road.
As the city of ten thousand cities in Da Chu, Xiao Luolan also learned some things from books. For example, today's saints dote on a beloved concubine named Jia Fei, appoint relatives, and treacherous eunuchs run rampant, causing the people to live in dire straits.
"Dongxue, how long do you think it will take us to reach Huiyi?" Xiao Luolan asked, looking at the endless wilderness ahead and the crowd of cavalry around him.
"I guess it will be twenty days at most." Dongxue replied with the most conservative date.
"Now the number of small groups of cavalry sent by the grassland aliens has increased significantly. They are obviously trying to drag us down on the march. However, our Youzhou cavalry are very powerful. Madam, don't worry." Dongxue comforted.
Xiao Luolan also felt the tense atmosphere before the war in the army. For example, little master He Jin, Miss Zheng and three or four disciples followed her carriage at a short distance all day long, taking turns guarding him 24 hours a day. The little master is now sitting behind the carriage, and you can occasionally hear the sound of him beating wooden fish.
