Journey to the Rose

After poking around in the open space of the camp all night with the binoculars, Wen Kai set the date.

The night was windy and rainy, and the faint light flickered.

The rain fell in the middle of the night, and gradually turned into sleet, and finally snowflakes fell to the ground, piled up in layers of white.

He made a drawing as big as a sand table, and spread it out on a wooden table, with a kerosene lamp used for marching and camping on top of his head, and drew with a pen. It is composed of a larger circle, which is filled with some astronomical symbols and numbers.

The other little warriors couldn't understand what he said about the "primitive guardian of the palace", they just remembered that this was the way the older generation often used to see the day.

As for Li Shen, he pretended to understand when he didn't know anything, and he insisted on watching him to draw pictures when he couldn't help him with anything.

Although Wen Kai didn't know what enemies he could have at this time?

My enemy is you!Wen Kai said so.

Maybe!

Li Shen rolled his eyes, wrapped himself in a padded coat and sat down next to him, and put the hot soybean milk he snatched from the cooking company on the table, saying whether you like it or not.

Wen Kai was hungry again, so he drank up the soy milk.

In the early morning, Ruan Xi fell asleep and woke up to look at the sky.

The weather was gloomy, and the cold wind blew into the temporary tent, whistling, and a two-meter-long ice edge hung from the flagpole.Li Shen said that it was convenient for him to get in the car and escape if he had something to do, so he didn't live in the original building anymore, and he was stationed on the spot in case of emergencies.

After getting dressed, Ruan Xi looked back at the bed.

The man is still asleep.

Lu Zhenghe personally led the patrol team last night, and he didn't come back until the middle of the night. His hair was trimmed, and it wasn't as messy as before, and his cut was back.At this moment, because it was too cold, Lu Zhenghe was wrapped in the blanket, with the top of his head exposed, like a fried kiwi.

After the patrol last night, Ruan Xi woke up as soon as Lu Zhenghe came back.After Lu Zhenghe washed up in the dark, he went to bed, and the two of them kissed in a daze.

Ruan Xi put her arms on Lu Zhenghe's shoulders, saying that she had to sleep in her arms in such a cold weather.

Even if he hugged him, his fingers were still tapping on Lu Zhenghe's shoulder. The skin of the two of them was so close that Lu Zhenghe could even feel a thin layer of calluses on his fingers. A "medal" from knife training.

Although Lu Zhenghe is not used to sleeping next to someone at night, he still has to adapt to life after marriage, so he let him hug him for a while, and he felt that it was quite satisfying to warm Ruan Xiyun.

Lu Zhenghe also said, should the two of us try to get a certificate?

When Ruan Xi heard this, she was taken aback, ah, do you need it?

After thinking for a while, Lu Zhenghe said forget it, probably the staff who issued the marriage certificate had already been absent from work... He was silent for a few seconds, and said, does it count as marriage without a certificate?Ruan Xi said what, are you afraid that I will run away?

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhenghe rubbed the tip of his nose and said something in a low voice, quite scared.

It made Ruan Xi laugh all night in his dreams.

After yawning, Ruan Xi stretched her waist, and found Wen Kai tidying up equipment at the table in the open space with a tired face.Looking at the dark circles under his eyes, Ruan Xi guessed that he had been busy all night.

Ruan Xi walked over with her hands behind her back: "Are you still watching the day?"

The snow on the ground didn't seem to melt, it was wet and would soon soak the soles of his shoes.Lu Zhenghe thoughtfully stuffed cashmere insoles into his military boots, which are soft and not cold to the feet.

"Yup……"

Seeing him yawn, Wen Kai wanted to yawn too, and his breath was misty, "This is the task that the young master entrusted to me."

Ruan Xi was attracted by the astrolabe drawn by him, and she was no longer sleepy. She regained her energy and was curious: "Let's see when it is forbidden to travel?"

Hearing his question, Wen Kai lowered his head and turned over the pages of the almanac that were bigger than his face, said "Oops", then raised his head, and said with great grief that he was forbidden to travel for the past six months.

Ruan Xi scolded: "Then you didn't say it earlier."

Wen Kai was extremely innocent, and blinked: "Did I not go out if I told you earlier?"

After thinking about it, Ruan Xi said, "Then quickly see which day is suitable for marriage?"

Gusts of cold wind blew past, carrying the unique breath of ice dew in the morning.

There is water vapor in the wind, and the water vapor turns into white snowflakes during the blowing process.

Ruan Xi raised her head slightly, and the snow fell on the broken hair on his forehead, and then lay on his eyelashes.In the blink of an eye, the entire field of vision turned milky white.He was looking at people through the snow.

"In my opinion..."

Wen Kai drew a circle on a certain day on the almanac with his red pen, tapped a few strokes, and said, "This day is pretty good."

So the date was set two days later.

Snow fell again.

·

The next day, the day before the wedding.

For two consecutive days, heavy snow enveloped this northern border city.The soldiers folded their arms and complained, saying that the weather was so cold that it felt like peeing would freeze into icicles.

The air is dry and hard, and the sky is depressingly gray. If you look at it a few more times, it seems that the entire sky will be stained with gray and a biting chill.

Lu Zhenghe led the patrol team to patrol around Zenith City as usual, but his car was replaced by a horse, saying it was for convenience.Every few meters, he and the warriors who rode together got off their horses, and the red flag hanging obliquely on their backs was inserted into the snow, because this was the route for the wedding car to travel.

The long road is like a giant snake with white patterns coiled on its back.

The snow-covered ground is rough and uneven, and horseshoes step in, leaving traces that are not deep and not shallow.

Lu Zhenghe was wearing a training uniform with a thick hat, a gun on his left shoulder, a flag on his right shoulder, the soles of his military boots were on the stirrups, and the reins were firmly held in his hands.

He straightened his upper body, raised his chin, and looked towards the direction of the road towards the snow mountain...

This road leads to the majestic and majestic snow-capped mountains without end. From a distance, the red flags fluttering along the road are obviously a festive event, but there is a sense of sadness for nothing.

Now Zenith City is no longer itself, but represents the last hope of the whole land.

No one knows whether the fission on the ground will stop, and what the prophecy will bring.Whether the wedding was the beginning or the end for them, they couldn't be sure.

However, to Lu Zhenghe's relief, according to the report from the soldiers guarding the city gate, there was no movement on the ground for the time being, and the smell of the sea in the air also faded due to the heavy snowfall.

Smelling the ocean in the north is a red flag.

Holding the reins, Lu Zhenghe reined in the tall steed, and walked around in a circle in the snow.

This circle reminded him of the ring he had been preparing for a long time——

When he didn't call himself in Fire City, he had already put a ring on Ruan Xi.The ring was simple and generous, inlaid with a silver diamond, but it was not prepared by him himself.

Even before setting off for ablaze city, he forgot about having the ring.

In other words, before he went, he didn't take marriage too seriously.What he needs are the two words "Ruan Xi", which carry weight, not the person himself.

But it is different now.

"Young Master," a little soldier ran, panting while brushing the snowflakes off his shoulders, "The task of planting the flags is all over, should we confirm again now?"

"There should be no problem. Leave two people to check, and the others will go back with me." After Lu Zhenghe finished speaking, he glanced at the horse team behind him.

He pursed his lips tightly, under the brim of his hat was a pair of snow-like eyes, and the camouflage uniform on his body seemed to be wet and heavy armor.

"Yes!"

After the soldier answered, he turned his head and whistled towards the horse team, and shouted: "No. [-] and I will stay for review, and the rest will go back to the camp with the young master—"

Inside the Zenith, the camp area.

And here, Ruan Xi nervously checked her lines with Wen Kai over and over again in the camp, extremely nervous.

Wen Kai saw that he was reading calmly and his ears were red, and felt that the veil was used really well, it just covered Ruan Xi's shy ears faintly, which was very cute.

It's getting dark now, and the snow hasn't stopped, Ruan Xi is very worried about whether he can drive on the snow-covered road tomorrow.Wen Kai opened the curtain and went out to take a look, and said that it was snowing, and it would stop tomorrow morning!

After a while, Ruan Xi said that he wanted to drink.

One is because I am too nervous, so I have to take two bites to let myself enter a relaxed state, and the other is to warm my body.I don't know if it's because of the cold spring, but Wen Kai said that this year's weather is colder than previous years.

Lu Zhenghe hasn't come back yet, he seems to be busy with other things.

The clothes made by the tailor of the clothing store were also delivered to him. Although it was a day late in a panic, the quality was comparable to Ruan Xi's suit, and they were all made one by one by the whole land.

Because of his experience before adulthood, Lu Zhenghe refused to wear military uniforms, and specially made a dress with the same color as the military uniform. If you look carefully, you can see the dark patterns representing roses, which match Ruan Xi's suit.

"It's pretty pretty." Ruan Xi took a sip of the wine, his throat soured by the smell of lemon and juniper. "He said last night that he wanted to wear a wedding dress."

Wen Kai: "...Really? This sounds unbelievable."

"Really." Ruan Xi said, repeating a few lines of Wen Kai's emcee.

Outside the camp, Lu Zhenghe was wiping his face with a hot towel before he could come in, and was about to wipe his body clean before going in.Hearing Ruan Xi's thoughts, he stopped abruptly.

Seeing Ruan Xi drinking happily, Wen Kai said, "You love drinking so much?"

"It's all my mother's fault," Ruan Xi curled her lips and stood up, "When she was pregnant with me, she buried a jar of daughter red at home, and said that if she was a daughter, she would drink the wine on the day she got married."

"What if it's a son?"

"Just wait until I become the son-in-law." Ruan Xi sighed, "But my mother never thought that I would be an omega."

Wen Kai asked, "Why can't it be an omega?"

"Because I'm the only one in my family."

Ruan Xi said, wiping off the wine stains on her lips, and said: "The day I split into omega, I almost pissed my dad off to death... Lu Zhenghe is different, he split up early, he just split up into alpha. He was arrested by Li Shen and the others for two days without even seeing me. I only knew that he was an alpha, disappeared, and then I didn’t know anything about it..."

"Li Shen was only performing the task at that time." Wen Kai knew that he was a little emotional now, so it was better not to say anything.

"I know." Ruan Xi lowered her eyes, "I don't blame him."

"However. I really should drink a little today. I remember that the night before the wedding, there should be some bachelor party." Wen Kai raised his glass and had a drink with Ruan Xi.

When Ruan Xi heard him talk about the bachelor party, she recalled the first time she met in the back garden, and also remembered the "Sleeping Coral" played crazily by the band hired by her father at a high price. The melodious and slow melody seemed to still reverberate in her mind.

"Don't talk about it. I originally had this bachelor party, but I beat Lu Zhenghe that night. He came to pick me up that night, and he said he didn't know me when he came." Ruan Xi waved his hand.

"Although...but, domestic violence is not advisable."

Wen Kai was facing the curtain of the camp tent, and had seen the shaking figure long ago, so familiar that he only needed to glance to know who it was.

Seeing Ruan Xi's pity for Bala, he couldn't bear to criticize him, so he could only verbally condemn him.

Just that.

Lu Zhenghe thought silently outside the tent.

The door of Zenith·116 will not be blocked, will it?
