As soon as Gu Yanting came out of the courtyard wall of Xu Mansion, Wu Qin came to greet him.
Gu Yanting pursed his lips and shook his head. The fire was too strong and he couldn't get in. The entire waterside pavilion was destroyed. There was no trace of Sasu and the snake. He didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
When the people in the house heard the commotion, they all rushed to put out the fire. The soldiers in charge of patrol were also rushing here. They couldn't stay too long.
Gu Yanting took Wu Qin and left to avoid the oncoming soldiers. Gu Yanting deliberately took a detour to the blacksmith shop to choose a hammer. Seeing that there was a crossbow hanging on the wall, he also carried it on his back.
Although Wu Qin had a sword, he also held two kitchen knives on his waist like a bandit.
Gu Yanting glanced at him, said nothing, and put a piece of broken silver on the table as a reward.
The two of them returned to Nanling Mountain together. On the way, Gu Yanting hunted two pheasants. Passing by a stone pool, he squatted down and began to pluck and clean the pheasants.
Wu Qin squatted down and was about to help Gu Yanting pluck the hair when he heard Gu Yanting say coldly: "This is not for you to eat. If you want to eat it, go hunt it yourself."
Wu Qin¡¯s eyes twitched, and he asked in disbelief: ¡°Sir, I¡¯m planning to wander the world with you, but you¡¯re not even willing to give me a stutter?¡±
Gu Yanting moved the other chicken behind him and said calmly: "You can go back now."
Wu Qin: ""
Is this sincere heart of mine worthless?
We are all here, and it is impossible for Wu Qin to leave. Seeing that the chicken is still raw, he has no appetite, so he said, "If you don't want to eat it, just eat it. I will help you pluck the hair, and we can go back quickly."
With free labor available, Gu Yanting did not refuse.
The two quickly finished handling the pheasants and returned to the cave. As soon as they reached the entrance of the cave, Chu Yichen was awakened and looked at the two of them warily. Gu Yanting ignored him and saw that Song Wan was still sleeping quietly next to the fire. His eyebrows softened a little, and he walked to the fire with the pheasant, sat down, and started roasting it.
Wu Qin hadn't figured out Gu Yanting's current attitude toward Chu Yichen, so he walked to the fire and sat down without rushing to speak.
Chu Yichen didn't sleep much that night. He rubbed his brows to wake up and asked in a low voice: "I just heard an explosion in the city. Have you been discovered by Xu Yingqing's people?"
Wu Qin got excited when he mentioned this, and said, "You don't know"
Being used to staying in the camp, his voice was a bit loud. As soon as he started talking, he was hit with a stone by Gu Yanting.
Turning around, Gu Yanting looked at him with a cold expression, silently warning him not to disturb Song Wan.
Wu Qin shrank his neck and lowered his voice and said, "I was wrong, I spoke in a low voice."
Gu Yanting ignored him and continued roasting the two chickens.
Wu Qin breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and said to Chu Yichen: "Those are just wine bags and rice bags. They didn't even notice that we passed under their noses. Did you even hear the explosion here? It seems that the movement was quite loud."
Speaking of this, Wu Qin was a little proud. He raised his eyebrows at Chu Yichen and said, "We blew up Xu Yingqing's lair. How about that? Are you awesome or not?"
Wu Qin is very familiar with him, and he looks as if he is very familiar with Chu Yichen.
Chu Yichen had never dealt with someone like him before, so he hesitated and replied: "Cow."
Chu Yichen originally thought that Gu Yanting was just returning to the city to inquire about the situation, but he didn't expect that he would come back and blow up Xu Yingqing's mansion. Xu Yingqing probably hated Gu Yanting to the core.
Gu Yanting didn¡¯t think too much. He sat there and focused on roasting the two chickens. His movements were skillful, as if he was born to sell snacks on the street.
After a while, the smell of roasted chicken came out. Seeing the shiny layer of oil on the chicken skin, Wu Qin felt a little hungry, but Gu Yanting was so aggressive that Wu Qin didn't dare to speak. Fighting for food with Song Wan.
Song Wan woke up not long after being tempted by the smell of roasted chicken. She slept too soundly. After opening her eyes, her expression was still confused, but her body instinctively rushed towards the roasted chicken.
Gu Yanting was on guard for a long time. He grabbed her thick collar and caught her back, and commanded solemnly: "Sit tight."
Song Wan was a little confused in her sleep and forgot what she meant. She frowned and struggled, and Gu Yanting patted her on the head.
That sound was quite loud. Song Wan puffed up his cheeks and covered his forehead. Gu Yanting repeated again: "Sit tight."
Song Wan reluctantly sat down cross-legged, then held his cheeks and looked at the roast chicken and swallowed his saliva.
Gu Yanting helped her wash her hair without tying it up, which made her originally small face look even smaller.
??p; Song Wan finished the two roast chickens in one go. If Gu Yanting hadn't watched, she would have eaten all the chicken bones. Wu Qin was dumbfounded and slowly understood what Chu Yichen said before. I want to eat whatever I see and I don¡¯t know what it means to be full.
The chicken bones were thrown out of the cave by Gu Yanting. Song Wan licked his lips in retrospect and started to look around for other things to eat. Gu Yanting pushed her into his arms and sat down, and pulled out a piece of floral cloth like a magic trick. Tiao helped Song Wan tie his hair.
Gu Yanting didn¡¯t know how to do too complicated hairstyles, so he just gathered all of Song Wan¡¯s hair behind her head and braided the simplest three-strand braid for her, and finally tied it with strips of cloth.
When helping Song Wan tie up his hair, Gu Yanting's expression was visibly gentle. Song Wan moved around restlessly and kept making little moves, but he wasn't angry at all.
Wu Qin¡¯s jaw dropped when he saw this. This man was like the King of Hell when he was training people in the camp. He must have been possessed now.
Song Wan didn¡¯t know what Wu Qin was thinking. She was very curious about Gu Yanting¡¯s hair. Unfortunately, she couldn¡¯t see it without a mirror, so she could only touch it with her hands.
Afraid that she would loose her hair, Gu Yanting grabbed her wrist and said, "Don't touch it. I'll buy you something else when we get to Dongheng Country."
Song Wan stopped and his eyes fell on the place where his wrist was held.
She was born with a small frame, while Gu Yanting was completely different from her. He was tall and tall. His wrists were twice as thick as hers, and his palms were even more generous.
The previous fight with the giant python had injured the tiger's mouth, and the wound had just scabbed over. When he was frying the waterside pavilion last night, he was burned again by the flames. In addition, the calluses from years of martial arts training formed the shape of Song Wan's slender white hands. A very sharp contrast.
To be honest, it¡¯s a bit ugly.
Song Wan looked at it seriously, but did not show the slightest expression of disgust, as if he was observing something very interesting.
But Gu Yanting felt a little uncomfortable when she saw him, and asked in a low voice: "What, you are not allowed to touch?"
Song Wan didn¡¯t understand, but he could clearly feel that after asking, Gu Yanting increased his strength and tightened his grip on her wrist.
Song Wan looked up at him again.
The eyes are a little brighter than yesterday, clear and bright, with a trace of candid joy.
Gu Yanting's heart was lightly touched.
She seems to like this action.
Thinking like this, Gu Yanting gently rubbed Song Wan's wrist twice with his thumb and asked, "Do you like it?"
Song Wan tilted his head, looked at him and then at the thumb rubbing on his wrist, stretched out his pink tongue and licked his lips, as if he thought it would taste good to bite off the finger and eat it.
Gu Yanting agreed that Song Wan's reaction was that he liked it, and a faint joy spread in his heart.
He remembered that when he was in Hanjing before, he had grabbed Song Wan's hand and gently rubbed it several times. At that time, Song Wan was not as ignorant and confused as he is now, and would blush because of his touch.
She is thin-skinned. Even if she has done everything, when her face turns red, her ears and neck will also turn red. Her whole body seems to become pink, and even her breath is sweet.
Thinking of Song Wan at that time, Gu Yanting's chest felt slightly hot and his throat was a little tight. He quickly suppressed his desire with reason and said to Wu Qin: "Are the customs clearance documents for going to Dongheng Kingdom ready?"
Gu Yanting asked suddenly, Wu Qin opened his eyes wide and said, "Sir, how come I have that kind of thing here?"
Gu Yanting didn't speak and just looked at Wu Qin calmly. Wu Qin soon felt the overwhelming pressure. He wanted to say something to get through. Gu Yanting said solemnly: "You should know that I don't like to beat around the bush. Henanzhou probably doesn¡¯t want us to waste time on such inconsequential matters.¡±
Hearing the words "He Nanzhou", Chu Yichen looked at Wu Qin in shock, but he didn't expect that he was from the Marquis of Yue'an.
Wu Qin was not too surprised and said, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you, but I didn't expect you to see it so quickly."
Gu Yanting helped Song Wan wipe away the saliva that was dripping from his mouth, and said calmly: "My friendship with you is not going to make you go through life and death with me."
Wu Qin smiled and said: "My admiration for you, sir, is true. You, sir, don't have to make our relationship so fragile."
Gu Yanting did not respond.
It¡¯s not that he doesn¡¯t trust Wu Qin, it¡¯s that he himself is a cold and heartless person and doesn¡¯t believe in any friendship between life and death.
Now that his identity has been exposed, Wu Qin did not hide it, and said frankly: "The Marquis has indeed made some preparations for us, but after arriving in Dongheng Kingdom, everything will still depend on the adults' decision." (Remember this Website address: www.hlnovel.com
