C41 (1/2)
A thousand miles away from the King Xuan's Palace, Yue Luo Xue was leaning against a tree trunk and sleeping. A thick fragrance drifted over, and she couldn't help but sniff a little.
Tuo Ba Hong sat by the fire, holding a wooden stick in each hand. On each stick was a rabbit leg, it was more or less done roasting, the color was gold, and a thick smell of meat floated out.
After sniffing with all his might, Yue Luo Xue looked at Tuo Ba Hong and sighed in heartfelt admiration: ”I didn't expect your culinary skills to be so good.”
She really did not expect Tuo Ba Hong to be one of the famous Seventh Young Masters, and to be the heir to the Battle King's Palace.
Yue Luo Xue's praises did not have any flattery, but Tuo Ba Hong enjoyed it very much. She laughed: ”It's only roasting rabbits, what I'm good at is roasting the entire lamb, this place's ingredients are not complete. I'll roast it for you in the future.”
”Then let's talk about it, you can't act shamelessly!” Regarding food, Yue Luo Xue would never reject it.
”Gu gu …”
Yue Luo Xue's eyes were staring at the rabbit leg, and the leg was shining brightly, her stomach was also growling at the same time, making her feel extremely awkward. Why was she always embarrassed in front of a beautiful guy?
Tuo Ba Hong however, waved his hand, and a wooden stick flew towards her. Yue Luo Xue hurriedly caught it, and casually swung her rabbit leg, laughing: ”Many thanks.”
”Why are you so desperate? Is Na Lan Rong Xuan very important to you?” Tuo Ba Hong looked up at Yue Luo Xue, and spoke as if they were talking.
Yue Luo Xue pondered for a moment, then said: ”I guess so. He had helped me a long time ago, so even if I had to repay him, I wouldn't stand idly by and watch him die.”
”I didn't realize that your medical skills were quite high.” Tuo Ba Hong laughed.
Yue Luo Xue's black eyes stared at the rabbit leg, shining brightly under the light of the flames, and said: ”The one with high medical skills is my Master, I'm just here to look for medicine, that's all.”
It was unknown whether Tuo Ba Hong believed it or not, but he casually smiled and said, ”Is Na Lan Rong Xuan's illness really that serious?”
”Young Master Zhan, I feel that your question is a waste of time. If I said yes, you might not believe me, but if not, do you think I would tell you? Although I am not his trusted aide, I am still one of his men. ” Yue Luo Xue unhesitatingly opened his mouth.
Tuo Ba Hong laughed, ”Feels good! Luo Xue, you are the most special woman I have ever seen! ”
Tuo Ba Hong's eyes did not hide the admiration in his eyes, his heart feeling slightly uneasy. When Yue Luo Xue said that she was Na Lan Rong Xuan's man, it was as if something that she had her eyes on had been snatched away by someone.
”Thank you, Young Master Zhan, for your praise. You are also a very special man that I have seen.” The rabbit leg had already been roasted, and Yue Luo Xue impatiently cut a piece off with her dagger, throwing it into her mouth and beginning to eat.
Tuo Ba Hong only laughed, he lowered his eyes, and his brown pupils carried an unfathomable emotion. So what if he was Na Lan Rong Xuan's person, the person Tuo Ba Hong took a fancy to, would eventually be Tuo Ba Hong's person!
”Hey, woman, that's mine!”
”Hehe, the famous Young Master Zhan has made their move, yet you're still worried about not being able to kill the rabbit, why don't you give this to me?”
”You're the most edible woman I've ever seen!”
”Many thanks. Master said that being able to eat is a blessing.”
In the silent mountain forest, Tuo Ba Hong's somewhat flustered and exasperated voice resounded, along with Yue Luo Xue's calm and collected teasing …
After three days of travel, Yue Luo Xue and the others finally approached the Yan Yang City, and the peace on the way was also finally broken.
”I'll open this mountain, and I'll plant this tree. If you want to walk this path, leave behind your life!” A group of over 10 burly men stood on the road and spoke in a black language that anyone could understand.
This was the last stretch of forest before entering the city. It was said that bandits would appear here, and people would get robbed.
One black and one white steed stopped, the tall and handsome man glanced at the petite and beautiful woman, then said with a smile, ”This time you're implicating me, right?”
As Yue Luo Xue rode on her horse, she didn't look at the people who were blocking the road in front of him. Instead, she looked at Tuo Ba Hong and said: ”They're just a few small fries.
”It's very expensive.” A cunning smile once again appeared on Tuo Ba Hong's serious face.
Yue Luo Xue shrugged her hands helplessly and said: ”It's not me who will be paying anyway, you decide on the price!”
”You can make the decision?” Tuo Ba Hong's expression became somewhat strange.
Yue Luo Xue shook her head: ”I can't, but I should at least pay for saving my life, right? ”I'm counting on making a hit, and when you do, I think the chances of success are better.”
”Haha, then I'll give you a hand!” Yue Luo Xue's answer seemed to have made Tuo Ba Hong in a rather good mood.
However, the other person's expression didn't look good. The leader of the group said angrily, ”Where did this stinky brat come from? He actually dares to meddle in our grandfather's affairs. Isn't he courting death?”
Tuo Ba Hong's expression changed as he laughed coldly: ”You dare to say that you're my grandfather in front of this old man, because you haven't even been born yet! I think you all are in a hurry to be reborn! ”
Just as he finished speaking, his body had already leaped up from the horse's back. Unknowingly, a broadsword had appeared in his hand, and he hacked it towards the boss who had just spoken.
Yue Luo Xue rode on top of the Treading on Snow and watched Tuo Ba Hong's stunning rise in momentum. Compared to Na Lan Rong Xuan's speed that day, Tuo Ba Hong's attack could be seen by her, or perhaps she could even see it clearly.
