Probably because she never expected Wen Yantong to appear here, Chi Jingxi's shock lasted for a long time.
The surrounding soldiers didn't even dare to speak out, and stared at the two of them blankly.
It wasn't until Wen Yantong walked up to Chi Jingxi that Chi Jingxi's eyes moved slightly, and then his whole body became animated in an instant, as if a lamp had been lit.
There was a smile in his eyes, and his tone couldn't hide his surprise, "How could you..."
Wen Yantong said, "I'm worried about you, so I came from Chaoge."
Then the two held out their hands at the same time.
Wen Yantong saw blood drops on his silver armor, and he saw ginkgo leaves on Wen Yantong's hair.
Wen Yantong said, "I've been waiting here for a long time."
Chi Jingxi didn't know how to respond.
The person who came should not be Wen Yantong. Although after such a long time, it was a great surprise for him that the person he had been longing to see suddenly appeared in front of him. But thinking that Yibei is so dangerous, he still can't be sure, and he doesn't want Wen Yantong to be in this dangerous place.
Seeing that he didn't respond, Wen Yantong moved closer and said in a low voice, "Young Master, you see what I said is right, as long as you choose Sister Mountain, you will definitely return to the city safely."
Chi Jingxi looked down at her, his dense eyelids concealed a lot of emotion, but in the end it only turned into a sigh.
Wen Yantong blinked, "What's wrong? I'm here to find you, are you unhappy?"
Chi Jingxi didn't answer directly, but patted her on the head, "You came alone?"
Wen Yantong shook his head, "How is it possible, there are Fu Zixian and Mu Xingyi, but we just met a herd of beasts, we got separated, and my horse brought me here directly."
Chi Jingxi stretched out his hand to check the temperature of her palm, the palm was hot, but the back of the palm was cold.
He directly pulled it up in front of everyone, and led Wen Yantong to the bonfire, "Wait a little longer, they will find it."
Wen Yantong's hands were not as smooth as before after being exposed to the wind and sun for many days, and Chi Jingxi could feel it immediately.
He took Wen Yantong to sit by the campfire, wrapping her hands in his own.
Chi Jingxi's hands are always warm. It may be because he has a strong body, so the temperature on his body is very high. Wen Yantong traveled such a long distance, all she wanted was to get along with her at this moment, she couldn't help lowering her head and snickering.
Chi Jingxi found out, and grabbed her cheek, with a sense of blame, "You are too nonsense, you dare to come to such a remote place by yourself?"
Wen Yantong was grabbed, and all his five sense organs begged for mercy, "I'm not alone. His Highness the Fifth Highness sent two very skilled girls to accompany me. We didn't encounter any trouble along the way."
"Knowing that there is war here, people in Yibei City are fleeing, and you still come here." Chi Jingxi shook the flesh on her face.
"It's not because you are here." Wen Yantong said.
Chi Jingxi was stabbed in the heart by these words, so he had to let go of his fingers and looked at her helplessly.
It is said that only men can speak sweet words, why is it that every sentence in Wen Yantong's mouth is sweet
Wen Yantong rubbed his face, moved closer to Chi Jingxi, and said with a smile, "Young Master will definitely protect me."
Chi Jingxi was silent and didn't speak, but held her hand even tighter. The gaze that was staring at the bonfire now fell on Wen Yantong, and she didn't look at anything specifically. staring.
Wen Yantong was exhausted from running around, and came here to find Chi Jingxi without a moment's rest. After completely relaxing, his whole body would be overwhelmed by fatigue.
After a while, she became sleepy, and Wen Yantong leaned on Chi Jingxi's shoulder, drowsy.
Chi Jingxi took off the silver armor on her body and remained motionless, like a wooden stake.
After a while Wen Yantong fell asleep, her breathing was steady and her sleep was peaceful.
Chi Jingxi looked down, as if thinking of the time when he came out of Yibei.
At that time, the longing in my heart was really indescribable, and it was not so strong that it scratched my heart and lungs, just like water, which penetrated every hole.
In the past, when Chi Jingxi was doing things, her attention was highly concentrated, and she couldn't spare her energy to think about other things.
But this time it was different, no matter what he did, he couldn't concentrate very much, and would always be distracted thinking about what Wen Yantong, who was far away in Chaoge, was doing.
Originally, he planned to spend his spare time thinking about it, but after he came here, he realized that this kind of thinking was completely uncontrollable and penetrated into his heart from various places. After a long time, Chi Jingxi finally tasted the pain of separation. pain.
Now Wen Yantong is leaning on his shoulder, sleeping peacefully. To him, it was like a dream, and he was even a little afraid that a sudden noise would wake him up from the dream. When he opened his eyes, he found that the surrounding scenery had not changed, but he was still the only one sitting in front of the campfire.
While thinking about it, Chi Jingxi stared at it for a long time without realizing it, until the surrounding soldiers all started to look at each other.
Wen Yantong fell asleep for a short time, when it was sweet, but was awakened by Mu Yang's cry.
She opened her eyes and saw Mu Yang running from a distance excitedly, and kept shouting, "Brother Xi!"
Wen Yantong moved, and Chi Jingxi felt that she was awake, so he twisted his numb shoulders and stood up from the ground.
As soon as he got up, he was hugged tightly by Mu Yang.
Mu Yang whimpered and sobbed, Mu Yang looked like a wronged daughter-in-law, leaving Wen Yantong speechless.
"Masters, why are you always crying?" she said.
I completely forgot that I also shed tears when I saw Chi Jingxi just now.
Mu Yang stared at her with wide eyes, "I'm worried about Brother Xi."
"Didn't they all be found?" Wen Yantong took out a clean brocade handkerchief from his bosom in disgust, "There are so many people, stop crying."
Mu Yang snorted, and said to Chi Jingxi, "Brother Xi, you should stop patrolling next time and leave it to the people below, it's too dangerous."
Fu Zixian also stepped forward from the side, echoing, "Is the young commander safe?"
Chi Jingxi patted him on the shoulder, "Thank you for your hard work. I just heard that Yantong said that you encountered a herd of beasts. How is it? Are there any casualties?"
Fu Zixian shook his head, "Scared them with fire, and they retreated."
As he spoke, he looked at Wen Yantong again. Seeing that she was standing upright, he knew she was not injured, so he smiled, "You had a sudden change just now, and Mu Xingyi almost burst into tears."
Mu Yang immediately punched Fu Zixian, "Shut your mouth right now!"
Fu Zixian smiled with a good temper, but didn't care.
Several people took a rest at the local area, then did not stop, counted the number of people, and went out of the mountain while it was dark.
Mu Yang and Wen Yantong were side by side, the two horses were very close, and Mu Yang took out the snacks hidden in his arms to share with her. Wen Yantong had never eaten Yibei's food, and had no appetite at first, but seeing Mu Yang's eyes were red, with tiny teardrops hanging on his eyelashes, and he was serious about sharing things with her, he didn't refuse.
Chi Jingxi rode behind Wen Yantong, staring at the back of her riding the horse, not knowing what to think. Fu Zixian was next to him and reported to him what had happened in the past half month, and said, "Young commander, it was Wen Yantong's idea to come to this mountain to save you this time."
Chi Jingxi responded calmly.
Wen Yantong already knew about it. She knew two months ago that he would be driven into a deep mountain during a certain patrol, so she told him in advance which mountain to choose.
Chi Jingxi was trapped in the mountains for half a month, and many people in Yibei City couldn't hold back. In the intertwined army of the three forces, what they have to fight against is not only the enemy army hiding outside the city, but also their own people.
In the first few days when Chi Jingxi came here, he had already rectified with his power. There are military regulations in the army, and some of them wanted to use the military regulations to make a fuss, and resist Chi Jingxi's orders openly and secretly without violating the military regulations.
But Chi Jingxi didn't say a word of nonsense to them, and directly changed into normal clothes and killed them.
To disobey orders is to die. In the remote Yibei, no law can deal with people with strong fists, not to mention that the royal family represented by Chi Jingxi has a large number of people in the army. So when Chi Jingxi was here, the people below were honest.
But after he disappeared for half a month, some people couldn't hold it anymore, and they were about to go to the house to expose the tiles.
When Chi Jingxi returned to the city with Fu Zixian at night, the generals of Yibei's garrison army rushed over to greet him at the door of his residence.
Chi Jingxi wanted to ask a few times as usual, and then everyone dispersed, and went back to the house to let people boil water for a bath.
There was already a vacant room in this house, and now Wen Yantong came and just happened to live in that vacant room.
Wen Yantong was busy on the road when he came to Yibei, and Wen Yantong didn't take much rest. After resting proudly, Wen Yantong spent several days lying in bed, basically eating and sleeping.
And Chi Jingxi is also busy with military affairs, hardly sees others during the day, and sometimes when she comes to find Wen Yantong at night, she finds that she has already fallen asleep.
But it doesn't prevent Chi Jingxi from looking at her. Usually after taking a bath, they bring a book and make a pot of hot tea to sit beside Wen Yantong's bed.
Wen Yantong was lying on his back to sleep, and Chi Jingxi was sitting beside him reading a book. Occasionally there was the sound of pages being turned and water being poured, but the cups and teapots were handled with care, and there was a peaceful atmosphere everywhere.
When the tea in the pot was cold, or when Chi Jingxi felt tired, she got up and tucked Wen Yantong in the quilt, wiped her saliva, and then left gently.
It was like this for several days, and Wen Yantong gradually got used to Yibei's life. After a thorough rest, her dark circles disappeared, her work and rest went back to normal, and she would fight with Mu Yang when she was bored on weekdays.
Wen Yantong is a first-class leisure personnel in the army, and Mu Yang stands shoulder to shoulder with him.
The two often quarreled over trivial matters. Fu Zixian would occasionally try to persuade him as a peacemaker, but it was of no use.
This day, the two went to the dining room to find something to eat, and found the local special fungus in Yibei, so they rushed to ask the cook in the dining room to cook it.
But Wen Yantong wanted to eat fried food, Mu Yang wanted to eat cold salad, and then the two started arguing.
As a result, the noise became more and more angry, and the two fought in the dining room, overturning the food prepared by the cook for lunch. That day Chi Jingxi seldom went back to the house for dinner, but felt lonely.
He looked at the mess in the dining room, and Wen Yantong and Mu Yang, who were still unconvinced and spat at each other, didn't say anything, and directly carried them under the big tree at the entrance of the house.
He ordered people to find four baskets of mushrooms, and asked Mu Yang and Wen Yantong to stand with one basket in each hand, with their hands stretched out.
Wen Yantong was wilted, and stood obediently, thinking about how to admit his mistake to Chi Jingxi later.
When she was in a trance, she suddenly heard a strange noise, and turned her head to see that Mu Yang spit into her basket.
"What are you doing!" Wen Yantong said angrily.
"I want to increase the weight of your basket and exhaust you to death." Mu Yang snorted heavily.
Wen Yantong threw the basket and yelled, "You dog, I'm always going to fight with you!"
Chi Jingxi entered the room with a hungry stomach and just sat there for a while, thinking about when it would be appropriate to let him in, when the servant hurried in and shouted, "Young commander, Miss Wen and the shepherd team are fighting again!"
The author has something to say: [Chi Jingxi's Little Diary]
July 18:
She was indeed a fairy, and she appeared in front of me all at once.
July 19:
Today she rolled off the bed while sleeping, and it took some effort to lift her up.
July 20:
The saliva drools all over the pillow, and I will change her to a new one tomorrow.
July 23:
Today I talked in my sleep and told Yang Er not to steal food.
Yanger and food are more important than me?
July 25:
The servants said that she and Yang Er were always fighting, and I will come back tomorrow to have a look.
July 26:
I thought wrong before, she should not be a fairy.
How can any god roll on the ground and fight with people, and even spit on others...
