Chapter 36: A New World? That's Ridiculous
‘Huuu, huuu”
The high winds tugged at the corners of Gu Nan's clothes But as if not noticing, she leisurely sat on the rock, stretching her hands behind her head
The weather in Changping was certainly freezing, but as a martial artist, she never felt it to be noteworthy
Co nearby had been eyeing her silently for a while now His right hand never straying too far froh the opposite party stated their position, he didn't dare relax his vigilance
They're someone froht, it's iranted, he was also here to let his horse graze
“I must say, you don't need to be so antsy I said that we're unrelated, so I won't go back on it”
Although the snow flurried and the surroundings dark, she couldn't directly see the other's face and neither could he see her's, only the vague contours of his face and outlines of his robes But her perception still felt his eyes eyeing her with hardly-disguised suspicion
She disdainfully curled her lip This guy's courage is so pitiable
The young man looked at her with soh they were so casual, he reentle his hand upwards, he conceded, “It is an to ht was pitch dark and the di the short distance seee
He couldleisurely on a stone, but he couldn't make out their appearance That voice was a bit neutral, even somewhat re ht about it but quickly quashed the notion Why would the are of words, the atht for a ht salute, he spoke with a smile “This is Zhao shi+ of the State of Zhao Brother, you really have a good eye This area is all frozen over and perhaps within a ten-rass for horses”
“You're daring enough to say you're fro my blade?” Gu Nan said, be He was all timid and tense but now dares to reveal himself
“I a about it, Zhao shi+, I don't really have anyhe's just another one of the countless young men in the Zhao army
Zhao and Qin, once these two statuses were unveiled, it's impossible for there not to be conflict But neither of thehts This “man” doesn't sound like a muscle-head, but his character is as direct as one Rather, hewith direct people that speak less, but mean more
“Since Brother is so relaxed, I should be as well, or else I'd be looked down upon”
“En” Gu Nan responded with a quick nod A silence followed again but that's because they were from different armies after all
In the dark wilderness, s were piled with snow Far away, only the twin lights of the Qin and Zhao caht whistling of the winds atop the hill The horses rustled around as they chewed on the grass Meanwhile, Gu Nan was resting on her stone with her eyes closed
When on the march, it becomes a habit to rest whenever possible
“Guuuu~”
A low gru her brows to furrow
Zhao shi+, sitting nearby, had an aard expression on his face
“Guuuu~”
That sound again
Her eyebrows perked up
Zhao shi+'s face turned ugly at the ru of his stomach He's only had two uessed that his sto
How shary?” Gu Nan asked after some hesitation
“Eh” His face was quite bitter ”Yes, Brother probably got a laugh out of it”
“Hmm, how about this” Gu Nan fumbled around her outer robe and took out an uneaten dried cake
This was froh her stomach isn't full either, the dried cake is really too unbearable to eat
“If you don't mind, I still have some dried cake that I haven't eaten”
Gu Nan held the hard lump and handed it out
“This…” Zhao shi+ looked at the dried cake and quickly took it after a rateful look towards Gu Nan and said, “Many thanks, Brother”
“It's nothing” Her voice was a bit light “It's just a chunk of dried cake”
Zhao shi+ didn't continue talking Soon after, there were a couple loud sounds of snapping and crunching
Occasionally, it would also be acco
It's probably too dry
“Your Zhao ar at your clothes, you should be a junior officer and you still don't get enough food?” Gu Nan asked faintly
