Chapter 55: Grass Snake (1)

Views:

A ray of spiritual light came from the horizon, and disappeared in the pine forest of Huanxinghai.

This long kiss didn't come to an end until the ice hole Shen Lou dug was frozen again.

"My legs are weak." Lin Xin hung on Shen Lou's neck, pretending not to leave.

Shen Lou lightly pecked at the corner of his mouth, "I'll carry you." It's too cold in the north, and standing in the snow for a long time consumes spiritual energy, it's better to go back to the house quickly.

Lin Xin happily lay on Shen Lou's back, fastened the belt of the cloak, and wrapped both of them in it. On the icy lake and snowy sea, the two of them piled on top of each other, and moved forward slowly, trapped in the warmth of a square inch.

Rubbing the deer in his hand, Lin Xin couldn't help but secretly smiled, "Hey, let me ask you, when you were on the Luqi Terrace, you were actually willing, right?"

Shen Lou coughed lightly, but did not speak, and the tips of his ears gradually turned red.

Who would want to be chained and humiliated? It's just that facing Lin Xin like that, he couldn't help himself, sinking and tossing between the heavens and the underworld every day, he really wanted to die.

Lin Xin tilted his head to look at the red ear, and couldn't help biting his mouth, "Tsk, no wonder you have to fight back every time at the end, can't you help it? Prudence, obviously you want it so much , but also to pretend to be steadfast and unyielding, really..."

"Lin Xin!" Shen Lou gritted his teeth.

"What? Turned into anger from embarrassment! Do you really want to press me on the snow and rectify the Fa on the spot?" Lin Xin grabbed his shoulders to look at his face, but Shen Lou suddenly let go, and the whole person fell down. Turning on the ground, the back rested on the thick maple tree.

Before I knew it, I had already reached Fengjin, where the thick century-old tree in front of the gate was covered with ice and snow.

Shen Lou pressed Lin Xin against the tree trunk, and blocked the mouth of that nonsense, the snow on the treetops shook and fell, and the sparrows perched on the branches were startled and flew high.

"My son... oops!" Zishu came out to greet him, but seeing such a scene, he was so frightened that he almost fell into the frozen lake.

Lin Xingang put his hand into Shen Lou's lapel, when he heard the exclamation, he didn't want to pay attention to it. However, Shen Lou was a face-saving person, so he stopped immediately and wrapped Lin Xin tightly with his cloak.

Zishu stood there awkwardly, not knowing where to put his hands and feet. Huang Ge, who came out after hearing the sound, didn't know what happened, and said directly: "My lord, someone from the Zhong family in the Western Regions is here, Lord Guo please go over immediately."

Lin Xin thought of the spiritual light he had glimpsed just now, was it not a hallucination caused by his excitement

"Understood." Shen Lou helped Lin Xin to stand up, straightened his clothes, "I'll go over."

"I'll go too!" Lin Xin gritted his teeth, the damn Zhong family has never brought him any good things.

As the end of the year approaches, the New Year's gifts that should be given have already been delivered. At this time, the aristocratic families usually don't walk around with each other anymore, and they are all waiting at home for the New Year. The Zhong family sent someone here at this time, there must be something urgent.

"The Di people suddenly invaded, and the second master was unprepared, and was sent down to two cities. He had no other choice, so he called the little one to ask for help." The person who came was an acquaintance, Wu Zhaoyang, the vassal who had previously delivered tea and wine to the Southern Territory.

Wu Zhaoyang was full of anxiety, kneeling in front of Shen Qirui and speaking earnestly.

Shen Qirui helped him up, sighed and said: "Why is Suifeng so confused, even if it's Chinese New Year, we can't withdraw all the soldiers."

Wu Zhaoyang showed embarrassment, "The second master is also kind-hearted, and wants the soldiers to go home for the New Year."

There is a foreign race in the Western Regions, named Di people. The Di people are brave and good at fighting, but they are rare in number. In recent years, for some reason, they have frequently clashed with the Zhong family. Zhong Suifeng is incompetent. Whenever he can't fight, he asks for help from the Northern Territory, but he never knows how to train and strengthen the army. The Zhong family gradually weakened in this conflict.

"Father." Shen Lou pulled Lin Xin in.

"Qing Que, you order three thousand elite soldiers to help." Shen Qirui said helplessly.

In order to prevent changes in Beimo, Shen Yingying was sent by her father to patrol the border as soon as she arrived home, and she has not returned until now. Now that the Western Regions are asking for help, they can only send their sons.

"Yes." Shen Lou agreed and turned to look at Lin Xin.

"I'll go too, and check the Zhong family's Luli along the way." Lin Xin said with a serious face, but his fingertips hidden in his sleeves stroked Shen Lou's palm back and forth.

Shen Lou smiled helplessly, and grabbed the troublesome finger.

Order troops, let's go.

The hooves of the steeds were covered with flannelette to prevent slipping, making a dull sound when walking in the snow.

Lin Xin and Shen Lou were driving side by side, shaking their feet in dissatisfaction, squinting at the black horse under Shen Lou, "Is this the horse whose hoof was cut off by me?"

The black and bright horse seemed to sense the other party's malicious intentions, and turned to the side, keeping away from Lin Xin.

Shen Lou laughed, "No."

"Well, that's good." Lin Xin looked at Shen Lou's slender arms greedily, thinking about how to jump over to share a ride with him.

"My lord, the bridge ahead is broken and needs to be repaired." The soldier who was exploring the way ahead ran back and reported.

This is the junction of the Northern Territory and the Western Territory. In order to hurry up, I copied the path between the mountains. Ahead is a cliff, connected by a suspension bridge. Snow crushed the bridge deck, which was in disrepair, and horses could not pass.

Shen Lou raised his hand, and the team behind him stopped immediately.

"Fix it within an hour." Shen Lou gave an order, immediately some engineers went to repair the bridge and pave the road, and the others repaired it on the spot.

"Where is this place?" Lin Xin got off his horse, stood on the mountain road and looked into the distance.

"Back to the Marquis, this is Fuyao Mountain, the junction of the Northern Region and the Western Region, and the east is the road to Yongdu." Wu Zhaoyang was very familiar with the road, and he introduced it to Lin Xin graciously, "there is Fairy Peak. Nine Heavens Xuannv once bathed in the hot spring on the top of the mountain; that is Zhaoyao Peak... "

Zhao Yaofeng! Lin Xin looked at the lonely peak surrounded by misty mountains, his heart moved, and he turned to look for Shenlou, "I'm fine now, let's go somewhere."

Shen Lou twitched his brows, and looked at Lin Xin helplessly, "Xinxin, it's too cold here, you still have injuries."

"Bah, bah, you bastard, what are you thinking!" Lin Xin kicked his calf, "Hurry up, follow me."

Walking along the wine pot on Shen Lou's horse, Lin Xin led the men to the leeward place, looked left and right, sacrificed the Yanggu sword, and dragged Shen Lou to Zhaoyao Peak.

Zhaoyao Peak is steep and the scenery is ordinary. Few people visit it, and it is still cold today. The two tombs stood in a good Fengshui place, covered with a thin layer of snow.

Shen Lou looked at the inscription on the tombstone, and his heart trembled slightly.

Lin Xin poured the wine in front of the tomb and muttered in his heart. "Father, mother, this is Shen Lou. I'll bring him to see you. The man I always talked to you before, look, he looks handsome! Don't think he's a man..."

After the wine was drained, Lin Xin knelt down in front of the grave, "Happy New Year, old man." Turning to look at Shen Lou, he found that he also knelt down and kowtowed three times in a proper manner.

The author has something to say: Small theater:

Xinxin: Let’s go, I’ll take you to a secluded place

Lou Lou: It’s kind of dark in here

Xinxin: It’s better to be black

Loulou: (blushing) What do you want to do

Xinxin: Mie hahaha, look, my new luminous watch!

Lou Lou: …
