Chapter 8: The wind blows the grass low and you see the roasted lamb No.54 Whose love rival
Spoon was lying in my arms, hiding in the shade of the headscarf. I was riding on a pony with my face flat, wearing the uniform of women accompanying the army: navy blue jodhpurs with silver trim, a black jacket embroidered with Persian patterns, and a white plain hemp headscarf covering my head and face. The only difference from the others was that I didn't wear boots. My bare feet were swinging on both sides of the horse's belly. On my left ankle was a delicately handcrafted silver ring, with three cute little bells clustered together on it, which made a series of crisp rings as I moved...
Mi is wrong! This is the despicable condition of Baimao!
On the morning before the army marched north, Baimao excitedly climbed onto my bed, took out a silver ring with a bell and put it on my ankle! After I kicked him off, he slowly began to set conditions:
What I am the commander-in-chief of the three armies and I have to lead by example and I can't always bring you with me, what there are too many people in the army and I'm afraid something will happen to you, what if you are out of my sight I can find you immediately by the ringing of the bell, what in short, it's all for your safety... In the end, he used both soft and hard tactics to say: Minmin, either you wear the bell and go with me to Najinba, or you don't have to wear anything and stay in the palace to fight with the chief eunuch's Ten-in-One Tonic Soup... Now it's you who beg me, not me begging you, think about it carefully...
I wanted to agree to it and take it off when he wasn't paying attention . But I didn't know that this thing was so mysterious that it couldn't be opened without internal force. I watched Baimao put it on me easily, but I couldn't pull it off no matter how hard I tried! And I couldn't even wear boots to hear the sound! As a direct result, I am now like a cat with a bell tied around its neck, which can't run around. Wherever I go, it dings. Do you think I can't be upset? !
I had originally followed the army north to avoid those women in the palace who were overly concerned about my relationship with Baimao. But I didn't expect that most of the women who followed the army were married women, and most of them were bold and unrestrained. They threw away their young girls' reserve and shyness, and asked me more restricted questions... It's too late to regret now. After being harassed by these enthusiastic middle-aged women for several days, do you think I could not have a sullen face?
Also, I had originally slept in the palace by myself after I argued with them, but who would have thought that now that I was going to the battle with the army, before I could ask the surprised old lady which tent I was sleeping in, I was carried away by Baimao and taken back to the main tent. What was even more infuriating was that the old lady looked pleased when she saw Baimao robbing a decent woman in broad daylight! … Baimao threw out a bunch of excuses, such as the quilt was too thin, the pillow was too hard, and the bed was too cold, and pressed me into his bed, and then arrogantly said that if I didn't want to sleep in the bed, I could go to the tent to keep watch, and it just so happened that there were not enough people at the moment, and so on… Tell me, how could I not be upset? !
Now my only pleasure every day is to watch Spoon grow up day by day under my painstaking cultivation. The number of times he scratched me has been reduced from three times a day to once a day, and the strength of his bite has gone from bleeding to just leaving a tooth mark. At night, his attack power against Baimao's sneak attacks has increased by ten percentage points... My little Spoon punches and kicks all over the world, and is a strong dragon that suppresses local snakes. Even Yaksha is afraid of him. Whenever I see Yaksha aiming at my shoulder and swooping down, but when I see a flash of cold light in Spoon's eyes, he turns sharply in the air and pounces on his master Baimao, I burst into tears... Spoon... I really love you for a reason! (The cool and handsome little Spoon sharpens his claws and shakes his tail disdainfully...)
Five days later, we arrived at the front line where the Wind Chasers and the Najinba were confronting each other.
The reckless third man who had been the vanguard, and the murderous fifth man, had just returned and were reporting to Baimao in the big tent.
After I came into contact with the army, I realized that when I first saw Baimao, the Arabic numerals around him were all Fengzhuo warriors who swore to die for the king! Except for the second elder who was the chief elder, the fourth Azu who was the military advisor, and the ninth who was the military doctor, the rest were Fengzhuo warriors who were brave and good at fighting on the battlefield and licked blood on the tip of the knife! I haven't seen them for a long time, but they are very close to me. Even the murderer, although he didn't say anything, finally stopped drawing his knife when he saw me...
Although my current identity is unanimously recognized by the Wind Chasers , it is not my turn to listen to the military secret order, and I am not interested. After leaving the tent, Shaozi jumped out of my arms and ran away. I was afraid that it would accidentally hurt the soldiers (why not afraid that the soldiers would accidentally hurt it? Minmin: Don't worry, it is very fierce~), even though I was barefoot, I had to jump around in the grass far away from the camp to look for it...
“Minmin!”
I turned around and saw Ah Zuo standing outside the bushes with a small package in his hand, smiling gently and calling me. Ah Zuo was extremely kind to others, smiling all day long without any airs, which was really hard to associate with the way he helped Bai Mao with his strategies and maneuvers.
I jumped up and down and ran towards him, "Ah Zuo~~ Do you have something good for me? What is it? Food?"
"No, Minmin, sit down first." A Zuo was still keeping the secret.
I found a rock to sit on, swung my feet, and pressed the tinkling bell in annoyance.
"Minmin doesn't like this silver bell?"
"Only perverts like it! That pervert Baimao! Does he treat me like a dog?!" It would be fine if he didn't say anything, the more he said, the angrier I got! What's even more annoying is that I seem to be getting more and more used to this bell recently. Maybe if I suddenly take it off, I won't be used to the silence around me... tears... have I been tamed?
"Hehe..." Ah Zuo laughed out loud, squatted down, picked up my left ankle, and pointed to the words on the inside of the silver ring to show me, "Minmin, do you know what this is?"
“I don’t recognize it.” It was probably the language of the Wind Chasers. It looked a bit like Tibetan and it looked very beautiful when engraved on silver.
"So..." Ah Zuo hesitated for a moment, "Then I'd better not tell you for now. One day you will understand the young master's painstaking efforts..."
"What?"
"By the way, I called you to give you this." Azu opened the small package, and inside was a pair of exquisitely crafted deerskin sandals. Hey, this wind chaser tribe is quite advanced!
"It's not a good idea to always go barefoot. Although you mostly ride horses, you might get hurt. So I asked the leatherworker for a pair of flat shoes for you." Ah Yong used the cloth used to wrap shoes to wipe my feet, then helped me put on the shoes and tied the soft straps.
I stood up and ran and jumped for a few steps. It was different with the soles! So comfortable! Seeing my happy face, Ah Zuo deliberately squinted his eyes and whispered, "This was specially made by someone who asked the craftsman to do it. He was not satisfied and threw away several pairs~ Ah... The poor cobbler probably still doesn't understand why Wang would go to him again and again for a pair of women's shoes, right?"
I was jumping around happily when I heard this, but I almost fell to the ground. I blushed quickly under Ah Zuo's ambiguous scrutiny...
Ah Zuo had teased me enough, and told me several times not to run too far before bowing and saying goodbye. Just as Ah Zuo turned around, I suddenly felt a sharp gaze on me! Who was it? I turned around, but saw a black shadow quickly hiding behind the bushes! Then there was no sound... After observing for a while, I wanted to turn back and call Ah Zuo, but I saw that he had already walked away. After hesitating for a while, I still walked carefully towards the place where the black shadow disappeared. Just as I was sweating in my heart, a black shadow suddenly jumped out and threw himself into my arms!
I was startled! When I looked closely, I found it was a spoon.
I sighed and was about to leave when an arrow suddenly rubbed my neck and got stuck in the grass at my feet! While I was stunned, another arrow flew towards me! The spoon in my arms suddenly jumped out like lightning and grabbed the arrow and rolled to the ground. I turned over and made a threatening grunt in one direction with a fierce look in my eyes...
At this moment, I calmed down and said coldly in that direction:
"Who the hell are you? Come out right now! This place is only 500 meters away from the camp. If I yell, you will never be able to escape! Why are you playing tricks on me? Get out now!"
The half-human-high grass rustled, and a girl in a red skirt, a tight black jacket, and her hair braided in ethnic style stood up with an indignant look on her face. She was holding a small crossbow in her right hand and a cowhide quiver on her back. She was not dressed like a wind chaser. The strangest thing was that she had snow-white skin, gray eyes, long silver-gray hair, and a beautiful face full of vitality that shone brightly in the sun! Although her body frame was a little tall in my opinion, she was definitely a beauty with her thin waist, long legs, plump breasts and cute buttocks! Especially the little tiger teeth that appeared when she spoke, which made her even more playful~
But what she said was not very nice. She said:
"Bitch!"
I opened my mouth and eyes wide, looking puzzled! She glanced at the shoes on my feet with almost resentment, gritted her teeth and said:
"Stay away from my Anda! Otherwise I'll make you pay!!"
What is going on here? Anda here means husband or lover. It seems that this girl thinks I am her love rival! Is it because of Baimao's affair? But she looked at my shoes... Baimao ordered the shoes, the leatherworker made the shoes, and Azuo delivered the shoes. Who is she jealous of?
"Well," I stuttered, "Although, although it is very exciting to be regarded as a love rival by a beauty like you (would a normal person think so?), can you tell me first, what kind of bitch am I? Am I a bitch who seduces Wang? Or a bitch who seduces Fu Jun? Or a bitch who seduces the cobbler?"
She was dumbfounded.
