The general went out again at night

The sun had sunk into the western mountains, and the sky was getting dark.Cai Zhujun doesn't like the dark night, in the night, she can't absorb spiritual energy, and her body will be cold.

Walking to a slightly open place, Cai Zhujun stopped his horse, turned around and said, "Miss Yang, it's getting dark, let's rest here, let's go tomorrow morning."

"Okay." Yang Xiyu listened to Cai Zhujun and had no objection. She got off the horse and tied the horse rope to the branch.The horse bent down to eat the tender grass, and Yang Xiyu looked at the quiet forest.

Cai Zhujun also tied up the horse, took out a dagger from the pack, and entered the depths of the jungle. After a while, a few large banana leaves appeared on her shoulders.

"Ten feet ahead, there is a small stream. Miss Yang can fetch water there." Cai Zhujun cut short the petiole of a banana leaf and spread it beside the tree she chose. This is where she will live tonight. place.

Yang Xiyu was squatting on the ground digging a hole with a thick branch. Hearing this, he turned his head and smiled: "Okay, thank you Miss Cai for telling me. There is a stream, and there may be fish in it. After I light the fire, go to the stream and have a look. If you are lucky, Grab a few and roast them, and today's dinner will be settled."

"Thank you, Ms. Yang, for your kindness. I don't eat fish. If Ms. Yang wants to catch it, just catch her own." Cai Zhujun refused indifferently.

What a picky eater.Yang Xiyu turned her head back, pursed her mouth, and didn't work as hard as before when digging holes with branches.

After the sun set, it got dark very quickly, and Cai Zhujun's body began to feel cold. She sat on the banana leaf with her knees bent, leaning her back on the tree stem, and resisted with the few spiritual energy.

"It's on!" Yang Xiyu lit the fire, and a puff of smoke rose into the air.

Cai Zhujun opened her eyes and looked at the blazing fire with a blank expression. Her eyes followed the smoke and looked at the night sky.There is not a single star in the dark night sky, and the moon is also covered by thick clouds.

It's really not a clear night sky, Cai Zhujun frowned, worried about the night.For safety, she used the remaining spiritual power to drive the ground stems, and set up traps around. If someone attacked, she should be able to resist it for a while before she dispelled the coldness.

In the universe, the spirit of the scorching sun is the most important, followed by the spirit of the bright moon. Other bright things also have spiritual energy for tree coffin people, such as fluorescent lights and fire lights... but these spiritual energy is very little, nothing How useful.

***

Yang Xiyu's fire was piled up in front of the two people's resting place, if you look carefully, it should be closer to Cai Zhujun.This is Yang Xiyu's careful thought.

She has never been like this with others, but she is willing to give Miss Cai so much detail.The meticulousness she pays will make her happy.

Life is alive, happiness is so important, Yang Xiyu is willing to do things that make her happy.

"Miss Cai, do you want something to eat?" After adding firewood, Yang Xiyu ran to the "bed" she made after Miss Cai's appearance, and took out the delicate pastries during the day.She was well protected on the road, and the pastries were not affected by the bumps, and they were still intact.

"No need, Miss Yang can eat by herself." Cai Zhujun still refused.

"Oh, good." Yang Xiyu lowered her head, and the little joy brought about by digging holes was instantly surrounded by disappointment.

There was fire in the forest, but it was still dim. Cai Zhujun looked sideways, and could only see the outline of Yang Xiyu, and the expression on her face was unclear.But just by looking at this outline, Cai Zhujun knew that she was sad, like a green onion and tender grass scorched by the scorching sun.

Cai Zhujun's heart softened, he cleared his throat and said, "I'm still a little hungry, please come with me, Miss Yang, thank you."

The wilted grass was filled with a large pot of water, and the limp body suddenly straightened up, full of energy.Yang Xiyu turned her head to look at Cai Zhujun, with a smile on her face, she said repeatedly: "Okay, okay."

Standing up, Yang Xiyu couldn't wait to take a portion of all kinds of pastries and send them to Cai Zhujun.

"Thank you."

"No...You're welcome." Yang Xiyu scratched the back of her head with a smirk.

From entering the coffin to today, Cai Zhujun has not eaten ordinary food for a hundred years. Those distant memories blurred her senses. Looking at the things in her hands, her head could not help imagining the taste of pastries.

Putting it in front of the nose and sniffing, Cai Zhujun carefully took a bite and chewed lightly.The pastry is soft and easy to melt, and the mellow fragrance overflows the lips and teeth.

"Delicious." After swallowing a mouthful, Cai Zhujun spat out a two-word comment.

Yang Xiyu was so happy that she could hardly control herself, she tried her best to maintain her composure: "As long as Miss Cai likes it, as long as she likes it."

"Thank you Miss Yang, I have a small appetite and it's not easy to eat too much at night. I'll save these for tomorrow."

"Okay." Yang Xiyu frowned contentedly, "I have to hurry tomorrow, so Miss Cai should rest early."

"Yes. Miss Yang also rests earlier."

Back on her banana leaf bed, Yang Xiyu lay down with her back to the fire, covered her mouth with her left hand, and secretly smiled.Joyful and cheerful, she felt sleepy, blinked her eyelids twice, and fell heavily.

The mountains and forests are quiet, with the sound of insects from time to time.Before freezing, Cai Zhujun recalled a wandering ground stem and learned about the surrounding situation.All is well, no one and no beasts.

Cai Zhujun lay down flat, feeling a little relieved.

The moon was still covered by thick clouds, and there was no moonlight at all. The coldness spread from Cai Zhujun's feet to the whole body. Soon, her consciousness was also blurred by the coldness. After a while, she fell into the boundless darkness.

Midnight is the coldest time of the day.Yang Xiyu was covered with a change of clothes, a gust of wind blew through, and the coldness swept across her whole body.

Eyelids moved, Yang Xiyu woke up and turned to look at the fire.Sure enough, the firewood was almost burned out, with only one or two clusters of small flames left.She got up quickly and added firewood to the fire.

"It's really cold." Yang Xiyu caressed her thin clothes and muttered these two words.

Miss Cai wears less clothes than herself, so I don't know if she is frozen.Yang Xiyu turned her head to look at Cai Zhujun's lying body, and the idea of ​​checking appeared in her head.

She approached on tiptoe, and reached out to touch Cai Zhujun's flat palm at her side.

A slice of ice cold!Yang Xiyu was shocked, and hurried to the fire to add a few big firewood to it.The dry firewood was lit, and the flames rose.

Yang Xiyu was still worried, so she took out her bag, poured out all her clothes, and covered Cai Zhujun's body one by one.

"Why is it still so cold?" Yang Xiyu touched Cai Zhujun's palm with the back of his hand again, and Yang Xiyu realized that his methods were useless.

"Miss Cai, Miss Cai." Yang Xiyu tried calling twice, but got no response.

It won't be frozen!You have to think of a new way quickly!

Yang Xiyu squatted beside Cai Zhujun, her mind spinning rapidly.

Have!After a cup of tea, she thought of a way.She had heard in the past that if it was very cold in winter, those children from poor families who did not have thick quilts would huddle together in twos to keep warm.As long as one person's body is warm, the bodies of other people will also be warmed up quickly.

Going to give it a try.Miss Cai is so pretty, she can't be frozen.

Yang Xiyu took off her coat and covered Cai Zhujun's body with her own coat, but she was only wearing a thin inner coat in the howling cold wind.

Yang Xiyu's body covered Cai Zhujun's body, hiding her cold palms under layers of clothes.

"It's so cold." It's not what Yang Xiyu imagined. As soon as she covered her body, Cai Zhujun's coldness was transmitted to Yang Xiyu, and she couldn't stop trembling.

Another gust of cold wind blew by, and Yang Xiyu raised her trembling hands, pressed down the corners of her fluttering clothes, and wrapped Cai Zhujun tightly.

Eyelids suddenly became heavy, the warmth from Yang Xiyu's body gradually receded, her head became chaotic, and she fell asleep not long after.

The sudden wind speeded up the movement of the clouds, half an hour later, the moon and stars hiding behind showed their faces.

The moonlight poured down, sprinkled in the quiet mountain forest, and fell on Cai Zhujun's face.The aura penetrated into the body, generating heat and resisting the coldness.

Cai Zhujun became conscious, and she found that something was pressing on her body, and her hands were also trapped somewhere, unable to be drawn out.

Cai Zhujun opened his eyes, and cast his cold eyes on the "thing" covering his body. Dozens of angry stalks emerged from the ground and surrounded her, flashing back and forth, gaining momentum ready to go.

"Miss Yang?" After distinguishing the identity of that person, Cai Zhujun was stunned for a moment, and the fluttering stems also stopped.

what happened?

After a few more glances, Cai Zhujun found some clothes covering his body.She roughly understood.She froze, her limbs were cold, so Miss Yang covered her with her clothes, trying to keep her out of the cold.

But her coldness is not something that can be driven away by these ordinary methods. She covers her body and cannot help herself, but will be implicated by herself.

Cai Zhujun struggled, but she couldn't pull out her arm, Yang Xiyu tightly grasped the clothes on her shoulders, trapping her body inside.

Cai Zhujun stopped his movements and sighed helplessly.It seems that only one word "stupid" can be used to describe Miss Yang.

She closed her eyes and used her spiritual power to radiate heat, which slowly entered Yang Xiyu's body through her clothes.

The ground stems were no longer vigilant, they slid back, shrank a little, burrowed out from Cai Zhujun's feet, bent into a semicircle, closed, and burrowed down from the ground on the other side.

Circles of ground stems are arranged together, from the sole of the shoe to the side of the head, forming a tight semi-cocoon-shaped small cover, covering the two of them.

The small cover of the ground stem climbed up the vine again, and the vine produced palm-sized leaves, which were stacked one by one, blocking the gap surrounded by the ground stem.

The howling mountain wind was blocked outside, and there was no trace of coolness inside, and Yang Xiyu's body gradually heated up.

She was still sleeping, but her body was no longer stiff, she gradually regained consciousness, and her breathing was no longer shallow and weak.

Nothing serious, Cai Zhujun felt relieved.

Yang Xiyu's head was leaning on the side of her neck, and her breath was warm on her neck.I have been alone for a long time, and suddenly there is another person beside me, which is very different.

Cai Zhujun stared blankly at the ground stem above her head, and after a while, sleepiness struck her, and she closed her eyes.Consciousness was hazy, and when she was about to fall asleep, Yang Xiyu rubbed against her neck, murmuring indistinct dreams.

Then everything was quiet again.
