Heartburn

"Sweet words." I looked at each other silently for a long time, but I couldn't bear it and looked away.

Although she tweeted her pretendingly indifferently, the burning on her face could not be concealed, and the sweetness in my heart was also bubbling, making it hard to ignore.

"...I'm thirsty." Hearing her clear laugh in the ear, she pinched her arm angrily, and felt that she was hopelessly naive, so she had to let go of her hand and change the subject abruptly.

She also stopped her smile very well, fearing to annoy me, so she poured half a cup of tea along what I wanted, and graciously brought it to my mouth, pretending to feed me.

She glanced sideways, and saw her mouth pressed tightly, she looked serious and serious. Although there was still a little smile in her eyes, her shadowy eyes were full of reflections of me, and she looked at me nicely for a moment. I taught me a heartbeat and stopped refusing, so I took a few sips of the tea she had fed to her lips.

"Or?" She was considerate and prepared, and she was very different from her usual indifference and strength-I couldn't deny it. Putting aside those ethical shackles and unknown gaps, her smile attracted me deeply, as if every Get along with each other more and get more addicted.

I vaguely realize that this is a dangerous signal, but why is it so easy to get away?

At least these few attempts have ended in failure-although there is also a reason for my indulgence time and time again.

"Where are we going?" Concentrated, I sat up straight from her arms and asked pretendingly.

Originally, my plan was to go to Xining to join the King of Duan and return the tiger charm that led the soldiers by the way. However, the appearance of Kuang Xidong disrupted everything and taught me to have to be led by her nose—perhaps the mess was not only the schedule, but also There is my unsteady heart that wants to keep a distance from her.

"White Cloud Valley outside Rongxi City." She frowned, but didn't stop me from sitting upright and leaving her embrace. Instead, she took two pillows and stuffed them into my back waist to see if I was reliable. Replied unhurriedly.

"Rong breath, Baiyun Valley? Is there anything special about this place?" She looked unpredictable, but there was a hint of expectation in her eyes, as if hoping that I could think of something... I sighed and made sure. I didn't have any impression of this place, and I didn't want to say it to disappoint her, but silently served the tea and sipped it, avoiding her scorching gaze.

After waiting for her voice for a long time, I made a "chuckle" in my heart, and looked up again, only to see her looking at me as usual, looking at me naturally, and I did not forget to return a clear and soft smile— —The expectation in Cai's eyes has also converged very well, as if nothing happened.

But the more it is so nonchalant, the more dull my heart is taught, and a deep sense of guilt and guilt arises spontaneously.

"Baiyun Valley is where I grew up and my home... So, I want to show you." I don't know what she was worrying about when she paused after she wanted to talk, but obviously, what she was talking about The meaning taught me to care more, and even more confused-as Kwong Xidong is the emperor, her childhood should naturally be spent in the palace. Why would she say that this Baiyun Valley is her home? Did something happen before that caused her to be sent out of the palace and had to grow up outside the palace?

However, I was even more puzzled, and what she didn't dare to think deeply was what she said in the last sentence: Why do you want to show me?

Does this have any special meaning to her?

With full of doubts and entanglements, the carriage slowly reached the Baiyun Valley mentioned by Kuang Xidong.

This is a valley not far from the town of Rongxi. It is only half an hour’s drive from the city. If you ride a horse, it only takes a stick of incense at the fastest; but to my surprise, it is connected to the city of Rongxi. Xiangshan's official road was so quiet that it could be said to be off the beaten track.

The woodcutters, medicinal pickers, and hunters I thought there would be none of them, it seemed that we were the only visitors; even when I heard that we were going to Baiyun Valley, the expression on the face of the inn’s shop Like seeing a group of fools sent to death.

What is the mystery of this Baiyun Valley that teaches people to keep secrets about it and stay away from it?

I didn't mention it, but I was really curious about the "place where I grew up" that Kuang Ximing identified in my heart.

The carriage slowly stopped in front of the Gukou Boundary Monument. Kuang Ximing patted me on the shoulder soothingly, then lifted the curtain of the driving car, and sat on the cowl of the car comfortably with one hand, and took the reins from the guards driving.

Seeing the two guards sitting in front of the carriage leaped behind the other two riding companions, the four men and two rode at us for a half salute, and then left without looking back.

"She, they... how did they go?" When the dust from the horseshoe was gone, I turned my head in a daze, and asked the old **** Xiang Xiang who was leaning on the ground, calmly playing with the reins Kuang Xidong.

"Baiyun Valley has a lot of institutions, which they can't deal with, so I told them to go back first," she said, shaking the reins, urging the horse pulling the cart to move, and winking playfully at me. Blinked, "rest assured, I will protect you."

Of course I believe she can protect me, but these guards have left. Doesn't that mean that I will be alone with Kuang Xidong for the rest of the time?

This is what worries me.

It suddenly occurred to me that most of my purpose of leaving the palace this time was to stay away from her, but now, how come I still struggle with her?

It seems to be going against my original goal more and more.

I sighed, I stopped looking at her, and sat back in the carriage to reflect on myself, but couldn't have the courage to stop and part ways... Probably from the moment I acquiesced to her to sit in the carriage in the name of escorting Jiang Zhuo, it foreshadows me Let's have an unbreakable bond with her.

Thick clouds piled up in the sky, grabbing the bright morning light.

The sky in the valley became gloomy, just like my gloomy and swaying mood at the moment.

After a while, it really started to drizzle.

The mountains are full of green trees and dense flowers and plants. Although the rain can be avoided everywhere, it is very inconvenient for the carriage. It pales in comparison. After more than half an hour of walking and stopping, the carriage is still on the path that can't tell the direction. It turned around, and the rain was getting stronger and stronger, and there was a faint sign of thunder and lightning—most of the clothes on Kuang Xihan, who was driving in front, were already wet.

She didn't care, but taught people to look impatiently, and hurriedly pulled her into the carriage to avoid the rain.

The mountains are empty, the rain is vast, I didn't notice it at first, but after a long time I noticed a hint of coldness.

I used my sleeves to wipe the drops of water on Kuang Ximin’s cheeks and forehead, watching her hair dripping down, her robe was also soaked, it must be uncomfortable tightly on her body, and I wanted to let her take it off and change her body clean. Yes, but I thought that the carriage was just such a square inch, and if she undressed in person, I would have a clear view, and the embarrassment in my heart would be awkward, but I couldn’t open my mouth—some embarrassment, but more. I don't want to teach her to misunderstand me to take advantage of her when others are in danger.

As soon as this thought came out, I was stunned again: I and she are sisters of blood, and we are both women. What's the matter...what's the matter? The big deal, I turned around and closed my eyes.

I secretly laughed at myself and thought, I was about to speak, but my nose was itchy, I couldn't help but sneezed, before I had time to say anything, I sneezed a few times in a row, sneezes, and I was embarrassed and unconscious. There was a shiver.

The playful color on her face disappeared, she glanced at me worriedly, reached out her hand and fumbled in the dark, took out a small bamboo tube that looked like a firecracker, raised the car curtain, and twisted it against the sky a few times.

Hearing a sharp whistle, a dazzling flame rose into the air, bursting open in mid-air, and even the rain curtain of the sky could not conceal the glare of the moment.

"This is... a signal arrow?" Although I asked her, I was sure in my heart.

"Servant Yamaka saw the signal arrow, so he would find it and wait for it with peace of mind." She smiled and shook my hand, rubbing it back and forth a few times, trying to warm me up.

I glanced at her, because her face was pale and her palms were slightly damp and cool. In the end, her heart softened a bit, she didn't pull her hand, but turned her face to look at the rain screen, and ignored her.

——Since there is this signal arrow, why didn't you take it out, wasting so much time in vain?

I don't know what I'm thinking about, and it's annoying.

The servant in her mouth was swift, almost like a cup of tea, and a few deep outlines appeared from the misty white rain curtain with only afterimages. I was squinting my eyes to make a careful identification. After a while, the outlines came close to my eyes, revealing the true face of Lushan, but they were four tall and strong women in buffalo leather and thin armor—the four of them worked together to lift a top and five feet. A square sedan chair.

"Let's go." My gaze was still rolling on the low sedan, thinking about the role of this sedan, and listening to Kuang Ximing gently urged in my ear, "Hold tight."

Suddenly, there was nothing at his feet, and he left the carriage.

Before he could exclaim, he just subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab the support that was close at hand, and his eyes went dark, and the water curtain that covered the sky was separated by a five-foot-square sedan.

Her arms hugged my back tightly, and the damp placket pressed against my skin, clearly conveying a chill, but I felt that my heart was hot, and my cheeks couldn't help but evaporate heat.

In the claustrophobic space, with the passage of time, the air becomes thinner and thinner, and the heat is getting out of control little by little. In the dark, only her bright eyes can be seen, with shallow gleams, that water-like eyes. It is full of amber-like color, exciting and touching.

If it hadn’t been for the warm halo from the opened car door, I would almost drown in the gentle waves of the eyes—as the beating heartbeat filled my ears, like the cold fragrance of the first snow lingering slightly Pointing to the tip of his nose, he breathed out from the warm breath that was worse than that, revealing the eager reverie, indulging the turbulent sentiment...

Of course, all this came to an abrupt end in an instant.

——The car door opened in time, but it was too timely.

I looked at the light that penetrated, and Kuang Ximing's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he couldn't help but laugh.
