days of being forced

After sending Qin Yuan to the guest room, Gu Xingzhi went back to the bedroom and didn't see Jiang Ning, so he went to the room where he made medicine by himself.The part with the best light by the window here has been requisitioned by Jiang Ning. He set up a desk there and came to read and write in his spare time.

Of course, one of the careful thoughts was that he could pester Gu Xingzhi so much.

Judging from Jiang Ning's various secret rubbing movements, Gu Xingzhi suspected that his possessiveness was much stronger than his own towards him, but Gu Xingzhi didn't care about these, and even felt a little secretly refreshed in his heart.

The person you like likes you even more than yourself, of course it is something to be happy about.

When they arrived at the room, Jiang Ning was indeed here. The two had a conversation, and one of them began to refine medicine, while the other continued to look at his account book.

Gu Xingzhi was thinking about the reward of the Shenlong Jue in the Pharmacopoeia, and he paid more attention to refining medicine, and he was immersed in it all afternoon.In the evening, when it was time to eat, Qin Yuan in the guest room had already left by himself.

Not long after, the fifth prince led elite soldiers to fight wits and courage with the people of Heifengzhai.Worried about his own safety, he called Gu Xingzhi over again.

Gu Xingzhi was originally a person who worked for the imperial court, so naturally he didn't care about these things, but he was a little unhappy that he delayed his refining time because of this.

It's rare for him to miss the days in Canglan Continent, where it is normal to retreat and practice for a few months at any time.After coming here, let’s not mention many other things for now, even if he doesn’t eat a meal, Jiang Ning will be worried that he won’t be able to bear it, so he likes to let him sleep in his arms at night, and hopes to see him when he wakes up in the morning.

There are a lot of things to worry about, thinking about it makes Gu Xingzhi feel distressed and sweet.

The people in Heifengzhai were also vigilant and moved quickly. As soon as Gu Xingzhi appeared, they immediately ran away.Gu Xingzhi didn't chase after him, the fifth prince was furious, but he was also concerned about his own life, so he didn't show anything on his face.

In the end, the [-] elite soldiers were messed up, and the battle situation was reported to the court, and other princes added fuel to the fire. The emperor was furious, and the fifth prince had no choice but to rush back to the capital in despair.

Gu Xingzhi returned to his post of guarding the city gate.

The weather was getting colder and colder. In the morning, Gu Xingzhi got up from the bed and opened the door, but suddenly the snow mixed with the wind hit his face, and the sleepy man who was still warm was immediately woken up.

Snowing.

He turned around and wanted to tell Jiang Ning that in his impression, snowing is a novel feeling for many children every year, and Jiang Ning should be the same.But when he turned his head, he found that Jiang Ning was still sleeping soundly, and it was not yet light outside. After thinking about it, Gu Xingzhi closed the door and decided to go to practice first, and it was just right to talk about it when he came back.

The wind outside was also very strong, but Gu Xingzhi was still sweating from practicing, and his clothes were all wet.

In the body exercise formula given to him by the Pharmacopoeia, apart from the formulas for practice and the matching medicinal baths, of course the physical connection is indispensable.

Looking up, it was already dawn. Gu Xingzhi took the cloth towel that was placed on the boulder aside and wiped off the sweat on his face. He put the cloak he brought when he came out on his shoulders, and was ready to go home.The yard at home was a bit too small, it was not convenient for him to use it, and he didn't want to disturb Jiang Ning, so he came to this mountain every time.

Anyway, he moves fast every time, so it doesn't affect anything.

Back home, the mother-in-law boiled the water early, and the two maids prepared the hot water. Gu Xingzhi took a bath before going back to the house.

Jiang Ning was still sleeping soundly. Gu Xingzhi called him a few times, but the other party just mumbled a few times in a daze, then buried his head in the quilt and ignored him.

It's so annoying that he doesn't remember it yet.

Gu Xingzhi stood by the bed and looked at it, a smirk suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, he simply took off the clothes he had just put on and threw them aside, got on the bed, and got under the covers.There was a high bulge in the middle of the quilt, and then Jiang Ning's favorite little rabbit pajamas was thrown out.

He seemed to have a sense of what he was about to suffer, and the hands clasping Gu Xingzhi's back trembled slightly in his sleep.The slender and slender eyelashes are dyed with tiny drops of water, which are as eye-catching as broken diamonds, and the tiny humming sounds can be heard endlessly.

The temperature rose for a while, and after a long time, Gu Xingzhi got out of bed.Seeing the tears in the corners of Jiang Ning's eyes, he stretched out his hot fingers to wipe them clean, then turned over and lay on the bed, wrapping his arms around Jiang Ning and letting him lie on his body.

After this, Jiang Ning didn't feel sleepy at all anyway, the trembling feeling had not completely disappeared from his body, and he didn't dare to move at all, fearing that the feeling would deepen again.

After he recovered, he breathed a sigh of relief, and poked Gu Xingzhi's chest: "Take me to take a bath, my body is covered with sweat, it's so uncomfortable, and the sheets have to be changed again."

"Yeah." Gu Xingzhi knew his habits, so he got up and asked someone to get hot water in again, and when he was done, he came back and picked Jiang Ning into the bathtub.

After the two of them washed up and had breakfast, they each went about their own affairs.Naturally, Gu Xingzhi is an unstoppable alchemist. On the one hand, the skin care products in the store are selling very well, and on the other hand, it is the practice method "Shenlong Jue" in the Pharmacopoeia. He wants to get this exercise as soon as possible.But Jiang Ning is different.

The shop in their family was originally managed by Jiang Ning alone, and those books seemed easy to him.Recently, he has become obsessed with another hobby, designing some hairpins, bracelets and other things. It seems that he wants to open a jewelry shop.

Gu Xingzhi didn't care about these things, so he let him torment, anyway, there are shops selling skin care products, and the family is making money every day, so there is no need to worry about money.

On the other side, Gu Qingqing's hot pot restaurant is finally ready.

When it was almost noon, Gu Xingzhi and Jiang Ning packed up and went to the hot pot restaurant together. Today is the opening day of Gu Qingqing's hot pot restaurant, so I greeted them in advance.

They came a little late, and when they arrived, the restaurant was already full of people coming and going.

A long distance away, the strong and domineering aroma of the hot pot tightly attracted people's minds.Jiang Ning took a deep breath and said, "It smells so good. Nothing I've eaten before smells as good as this. It must be delicious."

His heart is full of anticipation.

Hot pot is also available in other places, and its spread is quite wide. Jiang Ning has eaten it in the capital before.But that taste is absolutely incomparable with this one.

"En." Gu Xingzhi said: "Let's go in quickly." Gu Qingqing is not a professional cook, and his skills are actually not that good, but he can't stand the psychic liquid.

Gu Xingzhi has long discovered that as long as the food is added with this spiritual liquid, the taste will be much more delicious.Eating it is also beneficial to the human body.

After entering the restaurant, the waiter had known them a long time ago, led them into a separate private room, and handed them the menu: "Take a look, what do you want?"

While talking, Xiaoer took out a small ink pen from his waist, and whenever Jiang Ning ordered something, he would write an Arabic numeral after the name of the dish.

According to Gu Qingqing, this is the counting characters from the other side of the sea, which is more convenient.

After ordering what to eat, the food was quickly put on the table, neatly placed on the plate and looking very nice, Jiang Ning waited eagerly for the water in the pot to finally boil, and hurriedly picked up a few pieces of mutton slices and threw them in , After it is cooked, dipped in sauce, it is really delicious.

With a smile on his face, he took another piece and dipped it, and fed it to Gu Xingzhi: "Try it, it's delicious."

Gu Xingzhi ate it cooperatively, "It's delicious."

Jiang Ning's smile immediately became satisfied.

The two ate this meal for a long time, and when they finally left the restaurant, Jiang Ning's stomach was bulging.The smell of hot pot was strong, and both of their clothes were stained with this smell, and they didn't bother to go out for a walk, so they planned to change their clothes first.

As I was walking, I saw the little fat dog at home flopping over in panic, barking.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Ning squatted down and hugged it distressedly, and looked towards the alley where the little fat dog came from: "Is someone bullying you?"

Gu Xingzhi: "You put it down and let it go to us."

"Oh, good." Jiang Ning hurriedly put down the little fat dog again: "Zai Zai, please show us Qi, so that we can know what happened?" After raising it for so long, Jiang Ning also knew that it was a dog A human puppy, it can understand what most people say.

The little fat dog is worthy of the name of Gale Wind. After Jiang Ning put it down, he ran a long way away, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Looking at the empty alleyway, Jiang Ning looked at Gu Xingzhi in a daze: "It...it...where did it go?"

Jiang Ning has never felt so deeply how fast the wind dog is at this moment.

Gu Xingzhi smiled lowly, and took Jiang Ning's hand: "Come with me, I know the way."

He could sense the position of the little fat dog, and he also understood the yelling of the other party just now. It just meant that something happened to a kitten, and it panicked and didn't know what to do.

This little guy has been going out to tease cats a lot during this time, his nose has been scratched, his hair is a few bald, and he is still happy and excited every day.If it wasn't for sure that the two were not of the same race, Gu Xingzhi would have suspected that this guy had fallen in love.

In fact, the little fat dog just wants to tease the old cat.

After walking for a while, the little fat dog who found something wrong in front had already turned back. This time, it was trotting, not too fast.

The two came to a fence, and the little fat dog got in through the dog hole below, Jiang Ning: ...

Then his waist was grabbed by someone, Gu Xingzhi said: "Be careful, I'll take you up." It was just in time to think in his heart that Jiang Ning's body has been recuperating for so long, and he should be taught martial arts.

Jumping up the wall with someone in his arms, there is a small deserted courtyard with overgrown weeds, covering the original path, and thick cobwebs, it seems that no one has lived there for a long time.

Gu Xingzhi jumped down with Jiang Ning in his arms, then took his hand and walked inside, and soon they heard an explosive meow.

When I walked in, I saw the little fat dog walking and confronting a wild big cat with an expression that turned into flying. The big cat was full of irritability, and wanted to beat the dog, or scratch this bitch to death dog emotions.

And the little fat dog is full of grievances.

It obviously didn't come to snatch the kitten this time, nor did it intend to make the big cat angry. It knew that a kitten was sick and asked the owner to help it, but it was still treated like this by the big cat.

Seeing Gu Xingzhi and Jiang Ning, the big wild cat became even more vigilant. It arched its body where the ribs could be seen, and uttered a ferocious threat at the two of them.

Gu Xingzhi stopped, pointed to the little fat dog who was still caring about his grievances, and said, "I am the owner of this little fat dog, and it brought me here."

But obviously, although the big wild cat can be considered human, it is not yet able to understand Gu Xingzhi's words, and its vigilance has not diminished in the slightest.When Gu Xingzhi pointed at the Blast Dog, its eyes didn't move, it just stared at Gu Xingzhi firmly, in case he made any sudden actions.

Jiang Ning looked at the dilapidated house behind the wild cat, and he heard the meowing of young cats coming from inside, and there seemed to be more than one cat.

His mind moved, and he roughly guessed what might have happened.

He squatted down, hugged the little fat dog next to him, and smiled gently at the wild cat. He stroked the little fat dog, and after confirming that the other party had noticed the cub, he shook the little fat dog's paws with a smile and said : "We followed it, what happened to you here, we can help you."

As he spoke, he tentatively pointed to the inside of the house, and was not discouraged by the wild cat's roar, and still coaxed him nicely.

He also directed Gu Xingzhi to get some food for big cats and kittens.

After Gu Xingzhi came back, he was surprised to find that although the wild cat was still wary of Jiang Ning, his attitude had changed for the better.

Jiang Ning carefully pushed the food towards the wild cat, but no one approached, and let the little fat dog go over to eat some.With the "acquaintance" of the little fat dog, the wild cat really didn't know how many days it hadn't eaten, so it gradually took a bite, and then it ate fiercely.

After eating, he retreated into the house, probably because he wanted to feed the kitten.

Gu Xingzhi and Jiang Ning also followed in. Among the many kittens vying for milk, there was a thin and small one lying on the side, dying, not knowing what was going on.
