He asked her to lie down on the blanket while he came to take a look. Ranran lay down on the ground obediently and stretched out her hand to him.
After checking his pulse for a moment, he said, "You are not seriously injured, why..."
Before he finished speaking, Anmuda and his aunt came back.
Ran Ran suddenly remembered something, "No, no, no, I'm not sick, Anmuda is sick."
Anmuda said in surprise, "Then why did you ask him to take your pulse?"
"I... I..." Ran Ran blushed.
The aunt saw the little girl's thoughts and said, "It's not that she shouldn't see a doctor. This little girl is indeed sick and needs to be seen."
Anmuda was puzzled, "What disease?"
"Lovesick," my aunt said.
After saying this, everyone in the tent laughed.
Wei Lang opened the curtain and came in and asked, "What are you talking about? You are smiling so happily."
Ran Ran's face turned even redder, but the young Doctor You said calmly, "Concubine, please stop teasing her. It seems she is thin-skinned."
They were talking in Shiwei dialect, and Ran Ran couldn't understand a word of it.
But Anmuda heard it clearly and gradually tightened his grip.
Doctor You came closer to check her pulse, but Anmuda withdrew his hand and said, "I'm already well, I don't need you to see a doctor for me."
"That's okay, you still had a stomachache just now."
"Just have a few sips of hot wine and you'll be fine." Anmuda said to her aunt with a smile.
My aunt patted her head and said, "Hun said, you can't drink anymore."
Wei Lang looked at the unfamiliar Doctor You and said, "Why have I never seen you before?"
"In the past, his master came to treat people in the tribe. He just fetched medicine for people in the medicine house and never came out for a few steps. You and Anmuda didn't come to my place for a long time, so naturally you avoided him. .”
Anmuda said in a bad tone, "We are talking as a family. You don't need to be here. Just go out."
My aunt knew that Anmuda was unhappy, but she didn't know why she was angry. She coaxed her and said, "Since we have friends here today, let's kill a sheep to have fun."
When we got up in the morning, the clouds were low, the sky was dark covering the distant mountains, and the grassland looked smoother.
I don’t know when it started to snow, and soon the cow and sheep dung in the grass was covered with snow, and the first grass seeds were covered under the snow.
My aunt touched a lamb in the flock and said with a smile, "The down is quite soft. It would be best to make a vest for Anmuda."
"It's better for Bei and Du to choose this one. I think the hair of yours is too short and it won't be enough to make one. Although this one is bigger and the hair is not soft, it is thick and can best protect against the wind."
The sheep were held quietly in the sheepfold, lazily nibbling hay.
These sheep are well-raised by the tribesmen, and their body fat is half a finger thick.
Anmuda and Ranran got up early and fed the dog outside their tent. This was the dog raised by their aunt herself. It roared to the sky and started running. From a distance, it was impossible to tell whether it was a dog or a wolf. An Muda was almost bitten by it when she was a child. Her great-aunt said she wanted to kill it, but An Muda found it interesting. All the dogs in the tribe hid away when they saw her. It was the only one that dared to come forward. She teased him. It, it dared to bite her.
He hasn't been here in the past few years, and it has become an old dog. Anmuda stroked its head and said to Ran Ran, "This is my favorite dog since I was a child."
"The favorite one? Why is it?"
"Because it wanted to bite me."
"What? You still like it when it bites you?" Ran Ran felt incredible.
"You see there's a long scar on its back, right?"
"Yes, I saw it." Ran Ran said.
"That was once when I went out to play and met a prairie wolf. He was much smaller than that wolf, but he actually dared to fight and saved my life. When I came back later, I fed him fat lamb as a reward. , he ate very fiercely at that time, I originally wanted to secretly put another piece away and feed it at night, but it found it, and I felt that I was not as smart as it, so I took the meat back, and it thought it was its meat. But I feel that I am the master, and I have the right to decide whether to give it to him or not.”
"And then it bit you?"
"It was just a little bit off. If I hadn't worn a thick winter coat, it would have bitten me from shoulder to shoulder."
"It's really dangerous, but you are too, why bother with a dog?"
"The rule on the grassland is that biting dogs cannot be kept. My aunt said that the dogs in the grassland retain the blood of wolves. If they are stained with human blood, they will soon turn into bloodthirsty wolves. But I do not believe in evil and must keep them. it."
"Fortunately, you kept it, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see it when you come back later. Look at how docile it is lying at your feet. You prairie people just like to make a fuss about it."
Anmuda smiled.
Before she could say anything, Wei Lang opened the curtain, changed into clean clothes and said, "Later, Salle bit a child to death and ate the child clean."
Ran Ran's hand suddenly felt cold, and she hurriedly moved her hand away from the dog, "Isn't this dog called Saler?"
Wei Lang raised his eyebrows.
Ran Ran was startled, "This... it killed people, why do you still keep it?"
Anmuda knelt down and played with the dog, "I want to keep it. It saved me, and I like it too. So what if it bites a child to death? The child wanted to rush in front of it and scare him. It doesn’t overestimate its own capabilities.”
Wei Lang saw that Ran Ran looked unhappy, so he said, "There is a wrestling match in the tribe tonight, will you go?"
Anmuda quickly said, "What's the point of a wrestling match? Besides, this place is not as good as the Shiwei Lord Tribe, and the wrestling skills are really not that impressive."
Ran Ran said, "I don't like watching men wrestling anyway. What's so good about fighting?"
"Yes, there's nothing interesting to see." Anmuda smiled.
Wei Lang deliberately said, "Ijige will go too."
"Um?"
"The visiting doctor last night." Wei Lang reminded.
"real?"
"believe or not."
"I'll go, wrestling is so interesting, of course I have to go and see it. I haven't seen how you lose Wei people wrestle."
Anmuda was discouraged and turned back to his tent with great interest. Wei Lang glanced at it from the corner of his eye and started talking to Ran Ran again.
"But he doesn't wrestle."
"Why doesn't he wrestle?"
"He will not."
"Then why did he go?"
"Of course he goes to treat people's injuries. Wrestling often causes accidents. He is on the side and can treat people's injuries in time."
Ran Ran had no patience to listen to him anymore, so she opened her tent bag and went to find An Muda. Wei Lang heard the two girls talking.
Ranran asked Anmuda if he had any new clothes. Anmuda asked, "Aren't you wearing my new clothes?" Ranran said that this one doesn't look good, and you have to find another one for me...
Soon Ran Ran was pushed out by her, confused, "Anmuda seems to be angry, what do you think is wrong with her?"
Wei Lang shook his head, "Who knows? By the way, go and ask Liyou if he wants to go together tonight."
"Okay!" Ran Ran happily ran to Ji Liyou's account.
Someone in the tent was cooking meat porridge with a fragrant aroma. The aroma of millet and mutton made Ran Ran couldn't help but take a deep breath.
She opened the door of the tent and saw Ji Liyou stirring porridge in a small pot. Ran Ran walked over and said, "It smells so good. Brother Liyou, are you making porridge?"
"I don't drink it, I feed it to the dogs." He said calmly.
"For dogs? Can I have a taste first?" Ran Ran swallowed.
Ji Liyou's calm face suddenly broke out into a smile, "Are you a dog?"
"I...it smells so good, I want to take a sip."
He had no choice but to take the bowl and chopsticks and fill a bowl for her, "Drink, puppy."
Ran Ran devoured her food, her sleeves were too long and half of them were stained with porridge water. Ji Liyou felt sorry for her and rolled up her sleeves for her, recalling how noble she was in Liangzhu and loved and cared for everywhere. Now that she is here, her hair is also Messy.
"We will set off back to Liangzhu in a few days."
"So fast?"
"Yeah, didn't you say you don't want to be in Shiwei?"
"I said I didn't want to be in that tribe, I didn't say I didn't want to be in this tribe."
"Then do you want to go back to Liangzhu?"
Ran Ran slowly put the bowl down, wiped her mouth, and shook her head slightly.
"Isn't it good to go back?"
"I... don't want to go back."
"You left Liangzhu because of me. Now that I'm fine, you don't have to follow them around anymore."
"But...but I am willing."
"What do you want?"
"I… "
"You are Princess Tangshuo. People from the imperial court will come to you soon. We, a group of people, can live a wandering life, but you cannot."
"I can too."
"Can you dress up?"
"I can."
"Didn't Anmuda tie your long hair for you? It's exactly the same as her chicken coop." Ji Liyou couldn't help laughing.
"Originally, Wei Lang wanted to comb my hair, but I...my brother said that women's hair cannot be tied up by men."
Ji Liyou nodded, "You do remember this."
He walked out of the tent and came back soon with a comb in his hand, "Turn your back."
"Okay." She turned around obediently.
"I'll bind you once, and you can see clearly how I do it."
"Well, I learn quickly."
"You better learn quickly, I don't have the patience to teach you twice."
"Brother Liyou, when I learn how to tie my hair, will you take me with you?"
Ji Liyou's hand froze, "What did you say?"
"I don't want to go back to Liangzhu. I just want to follow you and Mr. Wen. Otherwise, I can stay here with Wei Lang and Anmuda. I just don't want to go back."
"You are so wild. It seems that only Yang Guogong can control you."
Ran Ran turned around and looked at the smile that had not faded from Ji Liyou's face, but she said nothing.
"Okay, I'll tie it up for you and see how it goes."
"It's the hairstyle of Southern Wei women. Why don't you tie my hair into braids like the girls who lost Wei?"
"You have the same braid as them. It's hard for me to distinguish you in the crowd. If you encounter danger here, you won't even have time to cry."
"Brother Liyou, I find you are so smart."
"It's natural."
The two of them still looked like they were in Ji Mansion before.
The person who had been sleeping in the corner said slowly, "It's really noisy."
When Ji Liyou saw him waking up, he filled a bowl and put it aside to cool it gently.
Ran Ran approached him and said, "Mr. Wen, it turns out you are here. I thought you were sleeping in another tent."
Ran Ran's back blocked Ji Liyou's sight, and only the storyteller and her eyes met.
"The princess's hair is tied up beautifully." He said deliberately.
But his eyes are as fierce as a wolf.
Ran Ran suspected that she had seen it wrong, but the look in his eyes was really scary. She didn't know what she had done wrong, and she was at a loss.
Ji Liyou suddenly said, "Of course, it doesn't matter who tied her up. I've tied it up for someone over the years, so I still have some skills."
His eyes gradually converged and he smiled, but there was an irresistible threat in his eyes. Ran Ran felt scared and turned around and said, "Brother Liyou..."
The storyteller's hand was placed on her back at some point, and Ran Ran suddenly noticed that cold sweat was breaking out from behind, feeling panic and anxiety.
"What's wrong?" Ji Liyou asked her.
"No... nothing..."
She repeatedly thought about whether she had said something wrong just now, and that was why Mr. Wen suddenly changed. However, after thinking for a long time, she could not remember what offensive words she had said.
The storyteller sat up leisurely, reached out and tapped the back of Ran Ran's neck. Ran Ran was so frightened that she sat on the ground.
"Stop scaring her." Ji Liyou said.
"Where can I get it?" The storyteller let her go.
"Just teasing the kids, I can't help but be scared." He tightened his clothes as if he was afraid of the cold wind outside.
"Those eyes of yours are meant to poke holes in people. How can she not be afraid?"
The storyteller shrugged, "It's my fault."
Seeing them talking, Ran Ran dared to walk over for a long time and said, "Mr. Wen, were you angry just now?"
He shook his head, "No, I just think you are cute, elegant, lively and free. I have bad intentions and deliberately tease you. Your Highness, don't blame me."
"it's okay no problem."
"Do you have anything else?" the storyteller asked her.
Ran Ran was stunned for a moment, "No, no, I just came over to see brother Liyou... Oh, by the way, Wei Lang asked me to ask you if you want to go to the wrestling match tonight?"
"Okay, you can come to me when the time comes and follow us."
"It's okay, I'll just follow Wei Lang and An Muda."
After she finished speaking, she was about to leave, but Ji Liyou stopped her.
He stood up, looked down at her and said, "Whose clothes are they? Anmuda's."
"Yes, it belongs to her. I have nothing to wear."
Seeing that the sleeves were long and the waist was wide, Ji Liyou sighed, "I'm not a good girl. Go find the women here and ask them to help you adjust the size of this dress."
"It doesn't matter, I can wear it just like this."
"No air leakage?"
"Leak...it's okay."
"It doesn't matter, just go and talk to Wei Lang and he will help you."
"But Wei Lang said that I am very funny and interesting wearing these loose clothes. Prairie people like to dress like this. I look like a prairie people."
"Bullshit." Ji Liyou muttered, "Go if I tell you to."
The storyteller finished his bowl of porridge listlessly and turned around to go back to sleep.
Ji Liyou touched his cold hand and asked, "Why is it still so cold?"
"I don't like cold places. Let's go back to Bolu as soon as possible. The four seasons are like spring, and Sanqi Tea House is the place we should go."
Ji Liyou pouted, "We have to wait until you feel better before we can set off."
"I'm fine. There's no need to wait for my wound to heal."
Ji Liyou felt a little sad when he thought of the injuries all over his body, "I asked you to wear black clothes. If you hadn't taken off your clothes, I wouldn't have noticed the injuries on your body at all."
"Liyou, my body hurts, as if I was cut by a sword."
He sighed and let him lean on his legs, "Come back to sleep. Although Wei Lang's spell can help a little, your injury is too serious. It won't be possible to heal in less than a year and a half."
"Don't worry, everything will be fine."
"Now that you have no immortal bones, you are no different from an ordinary person. If you count the day you saved me as your first day as a human being, then you have only been a human being for half a month. I have been a human being longer than you."
"so what?"
"So I am your senior, you have to listen to me in everything."
"Okay... are you still angry?"
"What?"
"everything."
