Chu Xiangtian's forehead bounced with blue veins, and he held Fu Tian's hand with only a trace of reason, and gently pecked and kissed his cheek.
Fu Tian took his hand, grunted a few times in dissatisfaction, and rubbed it in his arms like a coquettish little beast.
"Hey, don't make trouble."
Chu Xiangtian couldn't even harden his tone. He could only helplessly and indulgingly push the person into his arms, letting Fu Tian make trouble in his arms with dissatisfaction.
"It's too cold, it won't work here, it's easy to catch wind and cold."
Fu Tian hummed softly from the tip of his nose, cuddling in his arms and snuggling in his arms. After a while, he put his cool hand into his clothes and touched the hard muscles.
Chu Xiangtian's breathing was stagnant, and the fingers on his waist tightened, relying on strong self-control to endure it.
Fu Tian is very nostalgic for this skin-on-blind feeling. The warm body temperature allows him to confirm that Chu Xiangtian is still with him, giving him a real sense of security.
He buried his face in the man's arms and arched his nose, until he found a comfortable posture, he stopped motionless, his face pressed close to Chu Xiangtian's chest, his ears listened to the powerful heartbeat, palms Feeling the warm skin, the whole body's vigilance was lifted, he was buried in his arms relaxed, and he fell asleep unconsciously.
Chu Xiangtian remained motionless, caressing his head with a big hand, waiting for someone to fall asleep for a while before he took the hood, holding the rein in one hand, and protecting him while walking back slowly.
The sky was already dark, and there were only a few fires in the camp in this huge mountain.
During their absence, Xue Qingshan had already set up a few tents that he brought with him. They brought a lot of food, but there were too many people, so they could only boil the soup and keep the water down. He drank it and warmed his body. .
The accompanying guards also brought a doctor who knows how to heal, who happened to have the pulse of the child with a fever and re-prescribed the medicine. Now the older child is guarding the fire and decoction.
The movement of the two came back attracted many people's attention. Xue Qingshan had probably talked about Fu Tian's identity, and learned that it was him who persisted and even found people in the mountains from the capital to the border. Everyone felt admiration. When he saw the general who had always been irritable and almost cautiously hugged people from his horse, and then carried him into the tent, they looked at each other and smiled tacitly.
Everyone rested in the mountains for one night, and they set off early the next morning. There were not many horses left. Everyone could only walk on foot. The spies had already followed the road pointed out by Xue Qingshan to report the letter, and then brought people back to meet them.
Fu Tian sat on the horse, and Chu Xiangtian was holding the reins in front. The two of them leaned together and spoke quietly from time to time. The people around were far away from them for fear of hearing what they shouldn't.
The group walked and stopped for three days, and the army arrived on the fourth day, guarding the group in the middle, and quickly returned to Shanyu Pass.
In the city, Zhou Chuanqing personally brought people to greet him. He saw a group of people described as desperate, and stepped forward and hammered Chu Xiangtian's shoulder hard, "I know you can't die."
Chu Xiangtian disliked him and avoided him. These days when he was absent, Zhou Chuanqing had stubbornly defended the city against foreigners' offensive day and night. To be honest, the description at this time was no better than Chu Xiangtian.
They were all blue eyes, sallow complexions, and shaggy beards.
"I haven't been here for only half a month, why are you so ghostly?" Chu Xiangtian didn't feel enough about it, and he still had to say a few words.
Zhou Chuanqing just gave birth to a little sadness of reunion with his best friends, and he lost his life. He snorted displeasedly and waved his hands to arrange the slaves he brought back.
"Then you can do it yourself, Mulla Kili is still clamoring outside the city."
Fu Tian chuckled at the side, "How old are you about him."
Chu Xiangtian shrugged and embraced him back to his residence, "Get used to it."
Fu Tian was settled, and he sent more people to protect him. Chu Xiangtian went back to discuss the war with the eager generals. In the past few days, Mula Kili made a huge wood and climbing ladder, using a sea of people to attack the city. , If you return two days later, the entire city will be caught in the flames of war.
Fu Tian was not as physically strong as they were. After returning, he slept and regained his energy before going out to see if he could help.
From this look, I found that there were many more refugees in the city than they brought back.
Zhou Chuanqing is arranging people to count the number of people and their original hometown. Fu Tian walked over and said in surprise: "Why are there so many people?"
Zhou Chuanqing said, "Shortly after you entered the mountain, the other three teams came back with people one after another." These people were the teams that split up with Chu Xiangtian and the others to chase the foreigners that day, and then dispersed separately, and they circled the mountains. After a few days, it came out, although it is inevitable that there will be damage, but most people are still fine.
Only Chu Xiangtian and the others were too lucky and caught up with the avalanche. They fled to the old deep mountain without knowing what happened. They didn't get around for more than ten days. Zhou Chuanqing and the others sent someone to look for it, but the mountains. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack, and there was not the slightest gain.
"Unexpectedly, you found the person instead." Zhou Chuanqing joked: "They all say that the evil is left for a thousand years, and the ancients sincerely don't deceive me.
Fu Tian smiled and helped him count the refugees' information.
Most of these rescued slaves were taken away by foreigners halfway, so they knew where their homes were. After they reported their names and hometowns one by one, Zhou Chuanqing would send people to verify them one by one. People can be returned.
The remaining small number of people either have no relatives at home, or they are unwilling to return home for other reasons.
Those who could go home couldn't help but rejoice. There was no lifelessness at the beginning, and they covered their faces and wept in excitement, while the small group of people left remained silent as before.
Zhou Chuanqing looked at them and sighed, and said to his deputies: "Those who don't want to return to their hometowns will be temporarily settled in the city. Let people keep an eye on them. After confirming that there are no foreign spies, let them find a living in the city. Right."
Fu Tian's gaze fell on the silent crowd with his head down. There were two children in the group of adults. The smaller one hugged the larger legs tightly, and his dark eyes peeked out cowardly.
Fu Tian looked over, and he shrank back timidly and hid behind the older child's legs.
"Are these two children no relatives?" Fu Tian asked.
The record official read the booklet and shook his head sympathetically: "No, the older one said that his mother is dead. They were born and raised in a foreign race."
They have seen many situations like this. Young women are taken captive and defiled by foreigners, and some will give birth to children, but these children will not be accepted by foreigners. On the contrary, like their mothers, they have to be enslaved by foreigners all their lives. Yes, with the protection of a mother, you can still live to grow up. If you are unlucky, your mother will die out of torture. How long the remaining young children can live depends on luck.
These two children are considered fatal, and they can survive the tossing in the mountains for so long.
Fu Tian thought for a while, took two bowls of porridge, and squatted down in front of the younger person to talk to him, "Hungry?"
The younger child hid all behind the older one, showing only half of his dirty face, staring at the porridge in Fu Tian's hand eagerly and fearfully.
Fu Tian looked at the older child again, "You feed him, it's not enough to come again."
The older child stared at him silently, dropped his eyes for a while to take the porridge bowl, and said thank you in a low voice.
Fu Tian gave him the porridge bowl, then got up and walked away and explained to the others: "The two children are still young, so please take care of them if it is convenient."
The story of Fu Tian's entry into the mountains to find people has spread in a short time, and there are no soldiers in the city who don't know him now. They are grateful and awed to him, and quickly agreed.
What's more, when the trapped soldiers came back and added the matter to their families, it spread among ordinary people. Many people brought their own chicken, duck, and fish to thank them.
Not only thank him for saving his relatives, but also thank him for saving Da Chu's God of War.
Chu Xiangtian existed like a Dinghai Shenzhen at the border. As long as he was there, the people at the border would not panic. I heard that something happened to Chu Xiangtian before, and many people were prepared for the city's destruction. He even packed up and fled to other counties.
Now that Chu Xiangtian had returned safely, everyone was relieved, and they were even in the mood to prepare for the New Year's day--Chu Xiangtian and the others had been trapped in the mountains for half a month, and now they came back, it was the late twelfth lunar month. In a few days, it will be New Year's Eve.
When Chu Xiangtian finished discussing the counterattack strategy, he saw Fu Tian's feet full of vegetables, fruits and fish, and even a wild boar tied up on the ground lying on the ground, groaning from time to time.
There was also an aunt with a vegetable basket on the side persuading, "Master Hou should eat more meat to gain weight. This wild boar is the best. If you like it, we will ask the guy in the family to go into the mountains to catch it!
Fu Tian twitched the corners of his mouth and glanced at the fat boar on the ground. He smiled and declined politely, "Enough is enough, one is enough, you don't have to be so polite."
Chu Xiangtian stood not far away and looked at him. He couldn't help but laugh. Fu Tian turned around with feeling and saw him laughing, and gave him a fierce look.
