"Yes!" After the subordinate responded, he lay quietly aside and stopped talking.
Beside the bonfire, after everyone finished eating, they went to the river in twos and threes to wash their hands. Except for some light cavalry who were on duty tonight, everyone found a big tree, leaned against the trunk, and began to close their eyes and relax.
After Mo Xiuzhu finished eating, he looked at the oil stains on his hands, stood up, and said to Mo Hanqing, "I'm going to wash my hands over there, do you want to go?"
"Well, we'll go later." Mo Hanqing still had half a rabbit leg left in his hand. He glanced at Ye Qiqi, who was eating happily, and said casually to Mo Xiuzhu: "You yourself Go ahead."
"Okay." Mo Xiuzhu nodded, and when he was about to walk to the river, Murong Hongyu raised his head and looked at him and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go with you."
As he spoke, he stood up, patted Mo Xiuzhu on the shoulder, and walked away with him.
The black figures lying behind the bushes immediately became alert when they saw Mo Xiuzhu and Murong Hongyu getting up and leaving the bonfire.
The man with the scarred face stared at Mo Xiuzhu, until he was some distance away from the light cavalry stationed on both sides of the river, then he waved to the men around him and said: "Act."
"Yes!" The men quickly responded in a low voice.
Immediately afterwards, these black figures slowly moved towards Mo Xiuzhu and Murong Hongyu under the cover of the bushes.
Mo Xiuzhu walked to the river bank, picked up his robe, and squatted down carefully. His slender fingers reached into the river water, and the cold water temperature instantly brought a chill to the back of his hands.
Murong Hongyu stood upright next to him, looking at him quietly without saying a word.
After Mo Xiuzhu washed his hands, he turned around and glanced at Murong Hongyu with some doubts. He couldn't help but ask: "Hongyu, aren't you going to wash it?"
Murong Hongyu shook his head and said in a low voice: "When I ate just now, I wrapped it with a handkerchief and didn't dirty my hands."
"Then why are you following me here?" Mo Xiuzhu asked with puzzled eyes.
"protect you."
"Uh..." Mo Xiuzhu was immediately stuck by his words. He tugged at the corner of his mouth, looked at the expressionless Murong Hongyu and said, "Protect me? There are so many light cavalry here, who dares Come and trouble me."
Murong Hongyu glanced at him silently and said nothing.
Probably because he was used to his reticent look, Mo Xiuzhu only asked him a few words and then said nothing more.
Their current location was a little far away from where the light cavalry were stationed.
Mo Xiuzhu glanced at the lively camp, then looked up at the bright moon above his head, and said to Murong Hongyu, "Let's take a walk. After riding a horse for a day today, I feel like my bones are about to fall apart."
"Yes." Murong Hongyu nodded and simply responded, then followed Mo Xiuzhu away from the station.
When the bonfires were no longer visible behind him, the moon in the sky seemed bigger and brighter.
"Hongyu, you said this time we..." Mo Xiuzhu breathed the air in the mountain forest and turned his head to Murong Hongyu who was following him. As soon as he said a word, he heard waves of Qinggong coming from around him. A passing sound.
"Come and die!!"
