The prince is very fierce
Chapter 18 Worse than Beasts (117/429)
The morning light just sprinkled on the endless yellow sand on the east side of Suzhou City, and horses and camels galloped out of the city gate.
Xu Buling rode the snow-white horse Zhuifengtuxue, whose hair was black and shiny. A weapon was hung on the hook on the side of the horse. It was longer than the ordinary white wax pole spear and was wrapped in waterproof black cloth.
Zhong Lichuchu changed back to the red gauze skirt, wrapped her hair with a headscarf, sat sideways on the white camel, and paid attention to her appearance. Her figure and temperament attracted many passers-by to look at her.
After seeing the eyes of those stinky men, Zhong Lichuchu finally felt relieved. Xu Buling ignored her these days, and she even suspected that she had become ugly. Now it seems that she has not changed. Xu Buling must be a blockhead, so he did not react at all...
Zhonglichuchu looked at Xu Buling walking in front of her, thinking that he was going to a manor outside the city to find a jade pendant, and did not take it seriously. She was thinking about how to attract the attention of this blockhead.
The two of them rode their mounts and galloped outside the city, and soon approached the edge of the desert. There were fewer and fewer pedestrians around.
Zhonglichuchu thought for a long time, and suddenly an idea came to her. She sat on the camel and began to hum the tune of the Western Regions.
"Hum..."
The tune was gentle and moving, just like a clear spring suddenly appeared in the deserted desert.
The red gauze on her body fluttered gently with the never-ending wind and sand, and her green eyes were a bit lazy and saw through the world. She was beautiful and had the taste of an exotic beauty.
After such a hard effort, the wooden man in front finally responded.
Xu Buling turned his head and smiled, but did not disturb him. After all, it was a rare enjoyment to hear such a song in the desert.
The outline of Suzhou City gradually disappeared, and the sand sea on all sides was endless. The scorching sun in the sky rose to the sky and fell from the sky, turning into a red sun at the end of the sand sea.
Zhongli Chuchu hummed dryly for a whole day. The wooden man in front never turned his head again. His voice was almost hoarse. He was thirsty and hungry. He gradually became annoyed and stopped humming to look around:
"Where are you taking me?"
"To find the jade pendant. There is a ruin ahead. Camp there for a night and continue on the road tomorrow." ? ?
Zhongli Chuchu was puzzled. This was her first time in Suzhou since she could remember. She didn't know where this deserted place was. She was a little wary at the moment.
He wouldn't want to sell me...
Thinking of this, Zhongli Chuchu felt that she was overthinking. A son of a vassal, he would go so far to sell a girl. Is he bored?
Could he take me to the wilderness...
That's impossible. He is so powerful and has such good martial arts. No one would dare to say anything if he killed me in Suzhou City. There is no need for him to come here...
Zhongli Chuchu has her own life-saving tricks when she travels in the world. After she felt that Xu Buling had no reason to attack her, she dispelled her vigilance and asked:
"Where is the jade pendant? How far is it?"
Xu Buling calculated: "A few hundred miles, it will take about three or four days to walk."
Zhongli Chuchu couldn't tell which was which, so she didn't say anything more. She followed Xu Buling and walked another two miles to a small green area in the desert.
There was a small lake between the green areas, and next to it were old houses. No one lived in them and they were dilapidated. Several sections of the low wall collapsed. It should be a small village.
Zhongli Chuchu got off the camel at the lakeside, let the white camel eat grass and drink water, took the water bag and walked to the entrance of the small village, but saw dozens of skulls piled up outside, most of which were buried by yellow sand. There were also many corpses at the entrance, all of which were broken limbs and remains, and none of them were complete.
Having traveled around the world for many years, I must have seen corpses, but this scene of bones all over the ground can only be seen in the frontier fortress where there have been many years of war. Zhongli Chuchu frowned, feeling a little creepy. She walked around a pile of skulls and looked inside:
"We stay here tonight? There won't be ghosts in the wilderness, right?"
Xu Buling took the bag from the wind-chasing horse, walked into the dilapidated village with ease, and joked:
"With me here, ghosts dare not come. If Miss Zhongli is afraid, just live with me."
Zhongli Chuchu narrowed her eyes slightly, but saw that Xu Buling's expression was calm and his eyes were straight. He was not teasing her. After thinking for a while, he followed him into the village and said softly:
"Okay."
"..."
Xu Buling paused, confused. He couldn't hear such obvious teasing?
Seeing that Zhongli Chuchu seemed to trust him very much, Xu Buling didn't want to say too much. He sat down in a mud house that could only block the wind with the package, took out a blanket from the package and spread it on the ground, and gathered the broken wood from the collapsed beams together, lit it with flint, and started a bonfire.
It was getting dark. Xu Buling took out the dry food he brought with him and handed a portion to Zhongli Chuchu:
"You are a girl, wandering around the world alone. You are not wary of men. You are quite brave."
Zhongli Chuchu sat sideways on the blanket, took the dry food, and chuckled:
"Young Master is a good person. I believe you."
Xu Buling took a sip of the wine gourd: "If you believed me, you wouldn't hide the hidden arrows in your boots and point them at me all the time. You also hid a lot of poison needles on your waist and even tied a few poison needles in your hair. Aren't you afraid of stabbing yourself?"
Zhongli Chuchu's face froze and she retracted her foot a little:
"I am used to wandering around the world. Young Master, don't misunderstand... But how do you know so clearly?"
"Using poison is the lowest form of martial arts. There are basically no colorless and odorless poisons in the world, especially highly toxic ones. People with high martial arts skills must have keen senses. You can smell the type of poison from a few feet away. Even if there is no poison, From the smell, the sleeve arrows and silver needles cannot hurt the master at all, and the poisonous smoke inside has little effect. Unless it is an extremely overbearing and strange poison like Locking Dragon Gu, it will not hurt anyone."
Zhongli Chuchu didn't believe it. After a little hesitation, he still didn't dare to test it. He just chuckled and said:
"There are many ways to use poison. Some young masters can't even imagine it. It just depends on how ruthless the person who uses poison is. Anyway, if someone has ill intentions towards me, no matter how high my martial arts skills are, I will be sure to escape unscathed."
Xu Bu Ling was dubious and had no comment.
There was only the night wind in the desert, and there was no sound, making it look a bit eerie.
Zhongli Chuchu sat for a moment, looked at the bones in the village, and asked curiously:
"Where is this place? Why are there so many bones? If they were left behind in a war, someone should collect the bodies."
Xu Buling glanced at it: "I came here when I was sixteen. I got lost and ran here to ask for directions. It turned out that the horse was too good and was surrounded. Only then did I realize that it was the den of horse bandits."
Zhongli Chuchu had heard about the power of desert horse bandits and frowned:
"Then, how did you escape?"
Xu Buring raised his finger and pointed at the small Jingguan at the entrance of the village: "After killing the people, I slept here for one night and escaped on horseback the next day."
"..."
Zhongli Chuchu looked slightly stunned, tilting his head to look at the village that looked like it had been destroyed by war:
"Did you do this alone?"
"Didn't you hear what Mr. Shu said?"
"Storytellers love to exaggerate. I can't believe it... I also heard that you like to bully women, especially married women. Is it true?"
Xu Buling blinked: "Well... this is nonsense. I heard Qingye say that the girl came from South Vietnam, but she looks like someone from the Western Region. Why did she travel so far?"
"It's nothing. When I was a child, I was born in a small tribe outside the Great Wall. I met bandits and was sold to South Vietnam. Fortunately, I met a master, and that's where I am now."
Xu Buling nodded: "Your honorable master can find a way to crack the Dragon Locking Gu. I think he is also a master. If you have the opportunity, I must recommend him to one or two."
When Zhongli Chuchu heard this, he smiled faintly, did not answer, took a piece of wood from the corner and put it under the blanket, then lay down with his back on his back:
"I...I fell asleep."
Xu Buring smiled, didn't interrupt anymore, and closed his eyes to meditate beside the campfire.
In the yellow sand of the desert, there is not a single person in a radius of dozens of miles. There is only a man and a woman in the dilapidated small village. The woman is still very weak, and something will happen no matter how you look at it.
Zhongli Chuchu closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, but she was actually a little tangled in her heart. Not only was she afraid that Xu Bu Ling would be a beast in disguise and would mess with her, but she was also afraid that Xu Bu Ling would be worse than a beast and not mess with her.
If she messed up, she would be able to escape unharmed even if she couldn't beat Xu Buling, but the wealth she had accumulated over the years would definitely be gone.
But if he doesn't act recklessly, doesn't it mean he has no idea about her at all?
result……
This guy is really a piece of wood!
Could it be that she had to run to the lake and take a wild bath to remember that she was a woman?
Zhong Lichuchu's heart was full of annoyance and frustration. She gritted her teeth and still didn't dare to take a wild bath. She became increasingly curious about how Ning Qingye's charming girl could attract such a humble gentleman. How is she worse than Ning Qingye?
The more I think about it, the angrier I get!
Zhongli frowned and waited till midnight. Unable to bear it anymore, he raised his hand and rubbed his arm, whispering:
"Son, it's a bit cold."
Soon, a robe was draped around her body, bringing with it some residual warmth.
Zhongli Chuchu blinked his eyes and looked back. The handsome young man in white clothes was still sitting by the bonfire with his eyes closed. Under the firelight, his face was really beautiful, just like a jade-faced monk with his hair covered in practice. ……——
