Li Qianrong slowly opened her eyes, and what she saw was Li Quan's familiar face and worried eyes.

"Master Li, are you worried about me?"

"No."

"..."

"Not at all."

Chapter 309: The bones exposed in the wild

Li Qianrong's frail body was slightly startled, and the dry and hard soil on her body cracked and fell off one after another.She suddenly didn't dare to look into Li Quan's eyes, Li Quan's answer made her realize a new problem.

I have always been self-righteously asking how I feel in my heart, but I don't know what the other party thinks about me.Maybe it's still wishful thinking in the end.

"However, if he doesn't have feelings for me, why is he trying to protect me? Is it because I'm the princess?"

Li Qianrong lowered her head, countless questions suddenly appeared in her mind, she really wanted to ask "Why are you desperately trying to save me?", but she didn't ask after all.The words came to the lips but became:

"Master Li, why did you tear up your official uniform and use it as a handkerchief?"

Because Li Qianrong saw that the rag in Li Quan's hand was part of his official uniform, and it was still steaming slightly.

"In a catastrophe, the city does not belong to the city, and the people do not belong to the people. It is rare to survive the cholera. Why do you care about these details?"

Li Quan's voice was weak, and Li Qianrong couldn't help taking a sneak peek. The deep worry and tiredness in his eyes made her heart tremble.

"Could it be that Mr. Li is still thinking about the people in the county at this time? Yes! It must be like this!"

"Princess, try to get up and see if you can move around? We have to go back quickly."

Li Quan's anxious words made Li Qianrong more sure of her inner thoughts.

"Sometimes you are as shrewd as a fox, and sometimes you are as stupid as a cow. People are all on their minds, when can they think about themselves? Have you seen the princess's thoughts for you? Even if you can't, at least you can Let yourself rest, shall we?"

Li Qianrong suddenly couldn't bear the tiredness in her eyes, she got up slowly, she could have walked around a bit, but she frowned deliberately and sat on the ground again:

"No, my feet are so sore!"

Li Quan was even more worried: "How about I carry you?"

"Why is this cow so stubborn?" Li Qianrong felt annoyed.

"Master Li, your current situation is not very good. We don't know where we are, let alone how long it will take to return to Quxi County. How can you go so far behind my back? I know you are concerned about the disaster, but the natural disaster is over. However, manpower is always poor, we can't change anything, returning early and returning late is nothing more than early knowledge and late knowledge. Listen to the little girl once, let's take a rest in this cave for a day. Maybe go back faster if you have enough energy. "

This is indeed a cave, the four sides of the mountain walls are clearly illuminated by the fire, the night sky is full of stars at the entrance of the cave in front, and there are fragrant barbecues on the nearby fire, if you forget everything that happened today, you can also see it here It can be regarded as a place of elegant scenery.

Li Quan sighed silently, thinking about it carefully, resting here for a day is not a good idea.

The power of the gray beads in the body is not so easy to use. The blow through the mud is like a flash in the pan. After the power emerges, it is immediately retracted by the gray beads, and the result is more serious weakness.Li Quan was very aware of the situation in his body. Except for a gray bead, he didn't have any yang energy, and his body was extremely weak.Just take advantage of today's day to absorb the aura of heaven and earth to supplement, and at the same time, the barbecue around you can also replenish your physical strength.

Li Quan didn't answer, picked up the barbecue meat that Li Qianrong had shared, and then sat aside to eat quietly.

Seeing this scene, Li Qianrong smiled faintly.

"Master Li stayed for himself, maybe he..."

Li Qianrong was in a good mood, and the aroma of the barbecue in her hands was overflowing, which made people's index fingers move.Bite lightly, the hot oil stain is very fragrant, and it is so hot that Li Qianrong breathed out, forcing her to swallow dryly.

"Master Li, where did these things come from in the middle of the night?"

Li Quan looked outside: "It's not just people who died, the corpses of wild animals can be seen everywhere in the mud."

"Oh."

There was silence in the cave, and the two of them gradually finished eating the barbecue in silence.

Li Quan got up and walked straight out of the cave.

Looking at Li Quan's back, Li Qianrong was a little anxious: "Master Li, it's cold outside, why do you want to go out?"

"As the princess, how can I live in the same room with you? Needless to say, the princess will sleep again, and I will watch the night outside."

After all, Li Quan sat down silently at the entrance of the cave and entered into a state of meditation.

Li Qianrong stared blankly at the weak figure for a long time, then retreated silently to the depths of the cave.

As the night deepens, no one knows what time it is.But the night wind howled, and after the earthquake, it was much stronger than before.

Li Qianrong hid in the cave, looking at the bonfire swaying by the wind, and then at the back of the cave entrance being blown by the wind.

"He must be cold?"

Li Qianrong looked at the mud shirt on her body. Such a thing is really not easy to wear on others, she sighed faintly and chose to watch silently.

……

……

A day's rest did not achieve the desired effect, Li Qianrong spent the night watching Li Quan in the cave without blinking her eyes.In the afternoon, there were many bloodshot eyes.And Li Quan has indeed meditated for a long time, and he has absorbed a lot of heaven and earth spiritual energy. The strange thing is that his physical strength has not improved at all, and the recovered zhenqi was immediately absorbed by the gray beads in his body, which makes people feel very uncomfortable distressed.

The only good news is that last night's barbecue allowed the two of them to recover their exhausted physical strength, and there is no problem with their actions.

Sufficient physical strength but no true energy, the result was that the two had to return to Quxi County on foot.

There is no place to take a bath, the mud has already made the two of them lose their original appearance, the master is no longer a master, and the princess is no longer like a princess.But it doesn't attract the slightest attention, because everyone along the way is dressed like this, everyone is disheveled, covered with dust, fluffy and messy hair can be seen everywhere, and there are dazed and bewildered eyes everywhere.If someone is wearing a piece of undamaged clothes, it will definitely attract a group of surprised eyes.

Li Quan led Li Qianrong through the dense forest and returned to the official road.

Today's official roads have also changed beyond recognition, the land is full of cracks and unevenness, and even horses find it difficult to move an inch.

Looking at the tragic scene of the people around them, the two couldn't help but become solemn. There was less dialogue between them, and the only thing left was deep worry.

This is a scene where the bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles.Although the earthquake only occurred in a small area of ​​Quxi County, the damage it caused to Quxi County, and even the entire Bizhou, was unmatched by any war.The village was considered flat, and the terrain of the mountains and rivers was also distorted. In order to reach Quxi County, the refugees who had escaped by chance had already seen them walking together hungry and cold.

There are many scenes of looting and looting on the way.

Li Quan and Li Qianrong saw an old man's baggage being snatched away by several middle-aged men, and took out a bag of uncooked rice and a few ingots of broken silver from it.The silver was thrown on the ground, and several middle-aged men scrambled to swallow the raw Misai like hungry beasts in the wilderness.

Li Qianrong looked at the old man lying on the ground and clenched her small fists angrily.

"Master Li, go and teach them a lesson!"

Li Quan shook his head: "Forget it, everyone is trying to survive, there is no right or wrong. Everyone has their own destiny. We shouldn't interfere, let's hurry back."

At this time, it was already the second day after the two returned.

After being washed away by mudslides for most of the day, it took them two days to return on foot.
