At dawn the next day, the carriage to Kuanzhou departed as planned.

Hua Zhuo watched the New Year's Eve until midnight yesterday, but she didn't hold on, and fell asleep for an hour.After getting into the carriage, he was still sleepy, so he leaned against Ji Xiao's arms and continued to sleep.

There was no solution to what happened last night, and the two of them tacitly didn't bring it up again.This time the trip was carried out secretly, and there were a lot of people with them. In order to deceive people, the whole team set off under the banner of a caravan, and even the carriages were replaced with merchant specifications.The interior of the car was much narrower than before, and the two men sat together, unable to use their hands and feet.

The convoy has been traveling for half a month. Sometimes, in order to hurry, they will choose to take the sparsely populated but time-saving path. There are many grasses and rocks on the way, and the carriage bumps are inevitable.So when the weather is fine, Ji Xiao will take flowers and ride out to get some fresh air.

On the Lantern Festival, it rained for a whole day, Hua Zhuo's thin body was tossed about by the carriage, and when it was getting dark, he finally drove into a small town and found an inn to rest for a while.

The town is not rich, and there is nothing lively to watch during the Lantern Festival. In addition, Hua Zhuo is not feeling well, so he just stays in the room without going out.

When Ji Xiao came in with a bowl of glutinous rice balls, he saw Hua Zhuo lying pale in front of the mirror stage, not using Lin Qiu's appearance, but changed back to his own, frowning slightly, with a painful expression .

"What's wrong?" Ji Xiao thought something happened to him, put down the bowl and walked over.

"Uncomfortable..." Hua Zhuo said weakly.

The journey these past few days is really uncomfortable, especially today, even his internal organs are about to be thrown out.Just now he didn't feel too uncomfortable in the carriage, but now that he is stable, his whole body starts to ache.

"I told you a long time ago that your current body can't bear such a toss, and you still insist on following." Ji Xiao reprimanded him, leaned over lightly and took him into his arms from behind, and asked, "How do you change back?" gone?"

It stands to reason that he is only a mortal body now, and even if he changes back to his original state, it will not relieve the pain, but will consume his mana in vain.

Hua Zhuo leaned in his arms, facing the mirror, and said quietly: "I think I feel like a sick beauty right now..."

His face was weary and his body was limp.

"You still have the mood to look at yourself." Ji Xiao squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth.

Resisting not to scold him anymore, Ji Xiao touched his forehead, fortunately it wasn't hot, this place is remote, if there is any illness, it may not be easy to heal, and asked: "What's wrong?"

"Back pain." Hua Zhuo was weak, glanced at the steaming bowl on the table behind him, sniffed, looked up at him, "I'm hungry..."

Hua Zhuo put all her strength on Ji Xiao's body, and she didn't intend to move at all.

At this time, Ji Xiao can't do anything to him, he can only let him use his temper, first carefully carry him to the bed, then bring the glutinous rice balls to the bedside, and feed him bite by bite.

After eating, Hua Zhuo already felt a lot more comfortable, she leaned against him with her eyes closed, and let Ji Xiao rub her waist moderately.

Although it is now spring, the weather is still cold, and there is no charcoal fire in the inn in the small town.Hua Zhuo slid down a little more, her cheek was pressed against his chest, and the warm body temperature came from the other person's body, which was so warm that it made people nostalgic.

"Is it better?" Ji Xiao asked.

"Hmm..." Hua Zhuo lazily replied.

"If it really doesn't work, let's rest for two days before leaving. Don't get tired. I still have a lot of things to deal with when I get to Kuanzhou. If you are sick, I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of you." Ji Xiao's voice was cold. , it is especially pleasant to listen to closely.

Hua Zhuo shook his head and said: "It's okay, it's not too late."

The windows are a bit leaky, and occasionally you can feel the cool air blowing through the window cracks in the room.

Hua Zhuo was leaning against his arms, and the touch from the other party's chest was tough and gentle, making people uncontrollably reverie, Hua Juu couldn't hold back for a moment, raised her hand, and touched it.

Hua Zhuo secretly raised his eyes and glanced at Ji Xiao, seeing that he didn't seem to respond, after a moment of silence, he wanted to reach into the front of his shirt to try his hand.

As expected, Ji Xiao grabbed his wrist, and stopped rubbing his waist with his hands. He looked cold and solemn, and frowned, "Is it not uncomfortable? It's like this, do you still have the strength to make trouble?"

Hua Zhuo curled her lips and remained silent.

Ji Xiao's eyes paused, and he stared at him inquiringly: "Is there something else that makes you uncomfortable?"

Hua Zhuo said ambiguously: "When you say that, it seems... that I feel a little dizzy."

Ji Xiao was silent for a while, and pressed his temples with both hands, his gaze was deep and complicated, and he reminded: "If you feel uncomfortable, tell us as soon as possible, don't hide it, don't bear the illness, you know?"

Hua Zhuo couldn't figure it out, and said quietly: "...do I look so delicate?"

Ji Xiao didn't answer, and concentrated on pressing acupuncture points for him.

Hua Zhuo didn't bother much, and An Xin lay in his arms for a while.

Not long after, he vaguely felt hot, and the overly comfortable atmosphere made him feel drowsy again. He couldn't help but yawned, and fell asleep without thinking too much.

He fell into a drowsy sleep this time, and there were some hazy and unreal things in his dream, the content of which was unclear and elusive.There are ghostly shadows of candlelight mixed inside, as if separated by a layer of veil, warm and ethereal, trying to grope but can't find the direction...

The temperature at night was surprisingly warm, so hot that Hua Zhuo unconsciously frowned, moved, and murmured a few words.There is something lingering in my mind, my chest seems to be pressed, and even my breathing becomes heavy and sweet.

That kind of feeling is not very good, but it is inexplicably sweet and addictive for no reason.

When she opened her eyes again, it was already bright outside, Hua Zhuo stared at the top of the bed, and after a long delay, she could distinguish between dream and reality, her face blushed unconsciously.Tilting his head, he was surprised to find that Ji Xiao was still sitting beside him, he seemed to have woken up early, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Hua Zhuo's mind suddenly went blank, feeling guilty for no reason, and after a while he couldn't believe it: "You...why are you still here?"

In the past, Ji Xiao always went out very early, and there was no one on the bed before dawn, but today he was still sitting on the bed at this hour, but it was the first time he had ever done so.

Hua Zhuo's voice didn't know whether it was because he just woke up or something, but it sounded a little hoarse.Ji Xiao gave him a gloomy look, stood up, and said in a flat tone: "Get up, I'll ask someone to prepare hot water for you."

Hua Zhuo was about to ask him what he was doing for preparing hot water early in the morning, when he moved, he found that the place under his body was a bit indescribable.

There was a chill between the legs, as if they had been soaked by something.

It seemed that Ji Xiao just wanted to tell him this, and left the room without caring about him after finishing speaking.

Hua Zhuo's face was already flushed, but after realizing this, it became even redder. She lay there looking at the top of the bed, stiffened for a long while, and then got up feeling hopeless.

... It's also thanks to Ji Xiao's attention, otherwise he really couldn't think of any reason why he had to wash his body in hot water early in the morning on the way.

As soon as Ji Xiao came downstairs, a shadow guard came over to give him a message.

In the past few days, there has been no change in the Demon Sect, but there is news from Fuying Pavilion, saying that because of the robbery of the previous tributes, Kuanzhou has always been heavily guarded, especially Kuanyun City, which is still under strict investigation. Soldiers guard.The people in Fuying Pavilion are not easy to enter the city, and they will be restricted if they go in. For these few days, they have not found anything at all.The only thing that is certain is that the previous sect site of the Devil's Cult is indeed empty now.

Ji Xiao felt that it was expected, and already had a faint guess in his heart.

"Leader." Chen Zhu walked in from the outside, with dew on his shoulders, and asked, "It's not early, everyone is ready, why don't we set off and continue on our way?"

Ji Xiao's face was calm, and he said lightly: "Wait a little longer."

"But what happened?" Chen Zhu asked.

In the morning, the alliance leader and his wife asked for hot water in their room. The shadow guard knew the situation, so he hurriedly took over the conversation and explained in a cryptic manner: "Madam was exhausted yesterday and woke up feeling unwell this morning. I'm afraid there will be a little delay."

Chen Zhu thought of the emaciated figure of the leader's wife, so he was not surprised, nodded clearly, turned around and left.

After about an incense stick of time, Huaju finished tidying up and came down from upstairs.

Ji Xiao stood up and asked the shadow guard to go out and prepare to leave.

Hua Zhuo heard his voice, her feet went limp, and she almost fell down the stairs, really explaining what physical discomfort is.

Ji Xiao hurried over to help him, frowned and said, "Your waist still hurts?"

Hua Zhuo looked complicated and shook his head.

The shadow guard vaguely felt that there was something he shouldn't hear next, so he immediately lowered his head and turned around to slip away.

Hua Zhuo intentionally or unintentionally avoided Ji Xiao's support, and said evasively: "Then what... the weather is good today, but I'm not feeling well, so I won't ride with you."

Then, without waiting for Ji Xiao's answer, he quickly left the door.

After getting into the carriage, Hua Zhuo found that the cushion in the carriage was thicker again, and there was an extra soft pillow on the back, which seemed much more comfortable than yesterday.However, before his butt could sit still, the car curtain was pulled open, and Ji Xiao followed closely behind, sitting beside him.

Hua Zhu wanted to hit the post, "Why did you follow?"

The carriage moved slowly, Ji Xiao glanced at him, and said indifferently: "I was negligent yesterday, I thought you were not feeling well, you can't..."

Hua Zhuo looked at him warily.

Can't what?

Ji Xiao didn't say the second half of the sentence, but added, "I will pay attention to it in the future."

Hua Zhuo suddenly had a strange expression.

Pay attention to what? !

His unfinished sentence was really thought-provoking, which made Hua Zhuo feel agitated, but he didn't dare to open his mouth at all, for fear of asking something he didn't want to hear.

Hua Zhuo couldn't help but move towards the window.

But the car was already cramped, and he didn't hide very far, on the contrary, he seemed very deliberate.

Ji Xiao raised his eyebrows, not sure if it was on purpose, but his tone was very flat: "What's wrong?"

Hua Zhuo was silent for a long time, seemed to be very entangled, thought about it, finally came up with a reason, and said sadly: "Actually... I have lice on my body. Can you stay away from me these few days?"

This is the first time I have heard of butterflies with lice.

Ji Xiao hooked his lips mockingly, "Really."

Hua Zhuo kept her face sullen, tried her best to remain serious, and said dryly: "Really, maybe it's still contagious... No, otherwise, why don't you get out of the car first?"

Ji Xiao gave him a meaningful look, and faced such a lame reason, he didn't refuse, "That's fine."

"If you don't feel well, you must tell me, you know?" Before getting off the car, Ji Xiao reminded again with a blank face.

This is the third time he has said something like this.

Hua Zhuo nodded, until he got out of the car, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Huazhuo [covering her face in despair]: The promised spring dream has no trace, and the ancients deceived me...
