ecstasy

In March, the grass grows and the warbler flies.

For the first time since this month, Gu Tingshuang took the initiative to ask the Immortal Emperor for orders - to go to a place called "Morning Mist Peak" to regain lost ground.

This place was chosen after careful consideration by him and his staff.Prior to this, this place had been occupied by the demons, and was later dispersed by the Baili Prefecture.However, even though the demons were expelled, this place still has not recovered its former prosperity. There are still many people from the underworld, demon world, and blood races staying in that place, which has caused Chenwu Peak to become a chaotic area. There are all creatures, and it can be regarded as an area that has escaped from the jurisdiction of Jiuzhou.

The reason why this place has been left unattended is also because it is not very important. Although it is located in the middle, it is a basin and valley, surrounded by high mountains and unable to get out.If it can't become a transportation hub, it doesn't make much sense strategically.

But Gu Tingshuang discovered through the eyeliner of the blue bird that Chenwu Peak is actually a gathering place for spirits. On the dark side that no one has discovered, there is a rift that runs through the entire valley and connects to the outside world. Gu opened up a secret passage for food and grass, which will also provide Gu Tingshuang with a strong military barrier in the future.

After looking at the map, Ning Shiting agreed with his decision.After the petition was sent up, the Immortal Emperor quickly approved it-this kind of place is not very dangerous, but it has been neglected all the time.Although the place is relatively tasteless, it is still the territory of Jiuzhou after all, and it would be better if someone offered to take it back.

What's more, although Gu Tingshuang's legs are disabled, he used to be a Tianlinggen. His petition is actually a kind of loyalty to the immortal emperor.

And for this trip, the person he decided to take away was not Ning Shiting, but a recently reused staff member named Shen Kong.

He didn't take Ning Shiting with him, but only told him to rest at the house.

In order to make this decision, Gu Tingshuang thought about it for a while. He felt that if he told Ning Shiting all day long that he was his most valued courtier, and he didn't take him with him at such a time, Ning Shiting would be terrified. Won't you be angry?

Occasionally, he also felt that he was too self-indulgent, but once this idea came up, he could never shake it off.Gu Tingshuang didn't want Ning Shiting to go because he knew that place was bitter and cold, and Ning Shiting was a poisonous shark, so his body would definitely not be able to bear it.

After thinking about it, he first told him the strategic importance and preliminary plan of that place.

Ning Shiting did not participate in the whole plan. After Gu Tingshuang passed by, Ning Shiting thought for a moment: "It is indeed worth a try for His Highness. Since His Highness has already decided, let's do it like this. How about the dispatch of troops? Are you ready? "

Gu Tingshuang said: "I will take the four wolves there, and they will guard that place for me for a long time. The white wolves in Lingshan are invulnerable to swords and guns, only their aura can hurt them. You don't have to worry about them. In addition, you should cultivate well this time at the mansion. It’s a small place, so you don’t have to follow it.”

Ning Shiting gave him a surprised look, didn't say anything, just said "OK" softly.

He didn't know whether he cared or didn't care, which made Gu Tingshuang a little nervous.

He always felt that if he explained to Ning Shiting why he was not taken with him, it might mean that there is no silver 300 taels here. After struggling for a long time, Gu Tingshuang quietly wrote a letter to Ning Shiting, probably meaning to He took good care of his health when he was away, and he couldn't just stay up late to deal with official duties. The civil affairs hall may or may not be open. If he was caught sick again when he came back, then he would definitely punish him severely.

Ning Shiting asked the little wolf to answer the letter, and it was still a "good" word.

Gu Tingshuang thought about this word and it seemed that it was not quite right, so he wrote another letter to Ning Shiting, to the effect that this position would be important in the future, but although it was important, it was not as important as Xizhou; Although the other staff and ministers are capable, they are not as capable as Ning Shiting, but "barely enough".

The little wolf passed by with the letter in his mouth again, and it didn't take long for him to get back Ning Shiting's reply, which was still one word "know."

Gu Tingshuang thought that the merman was probably angry, why even the letter had an attitude of ignoring him, so he coaxed him carefully: "I will bring you merman flower mud when I come back. I will keep the little wolf play with you."

The little wolf ran over again.This little fat wolf probably thought it was interesting to run around at their fingertips, and was very active.

When Gu Tingshuang saw the little fat wolf again and took out a reply letter from the little wolf wagging its tail and shining eyes, he fell silent.

There are still two words in the letter: "Stupid King."

On the other side, Ning Shiting felt sleepy early in the morning, and planned to go to bed after taking a bath. He picked up a book and read it, but the little wolf came to bother him and sent him letters one after another.

Taking a closer look, it wasn't the little wolf that bothered him, but the big wolf, Gu Tingshuang.

It's not that he doesn't know Gu Tingshuang's thoughts, the young man is straightforward and youthful, he doesn't know how to express his respect for him, and he doesn't want him to be wronged, so he explains to him in a roundabout way that he wasn't taken there.

Ning Shiting found it very strange - in his perception, the monarch should not be so overly concerned with the wishes of his subjects. When he was with King Qing, he knew from the beginning that he would not be the only useful pawn .

But Gu Tingshuang is only seventeen, so it's normal to be so immature occasionally.

When Ning Shiting was about to fall asleep, the door creaked open again. Ning Shiting closed his eyes and gave way in, saying, "Little wolf, don't send any more letters, come here and sleep well."

Then something approached, lifted the quilt and got in.

Ning Shiting waited for a while, but before the little wolf got into his arms as usual, he turned his head and found that it was Gu Tingshuang.

Ning Shiting sat up, a little vigilant: "What are you doing here, Your Highness?"

Gu Tingshuang found a comfortable position to lie down, stretched out his hand to pull his sleeves, and pulled him back into the bed: "The ancients said that the king is a good minister, and I am here to share the bed with you."

Ning Shiting: "..."

He sighed, pulled the quilt to wrap himself up, and got ready to sleep.

When he was about to fall asleep, Gu Tingshuang regained his sanity again - this person was so annoying that Ning Shiting heard Gu Tingshuang turn over, and approached him and asked, "Ning Shiting, what are you doing?" If you go out for so long, will you miss me?"

Ning Shiting said, "Yes."

"What is 'um'? Yes or no." Gu Tingshuang muttered dissatisfied.

Ning Shiting said, "Yes."

"Oh, good." Gu Tingshuang was satisfied now, and shrank back a little flattered.

The little wolf climbed onto the bed and lay down between the two of them, with its tail resting on Gu Tingshuang's palm, and its little furry head resting on Ning Shiting's elbow.

Gu Tingshuang turned her head to look at Ning Shiting.

Under the dim bedside lamp, the shark had already fallen asleep.

He set off the next day and walked away quietly.

He didn't take the little wolf away, and when the little wolf searched around after getting up in the morning but couldn't find his alpha wolf, he sadly found out that he was abandoned.

It ran to Ning Shiting to cry, buried it in his arms and flicked its tail, thinking that the wolf didn't recognize him, and didn't even ask him to go out to enclose his territory.Even so, it is willing to stay with the fish, because a fish is very lonely here.

Ning Shiting patted its head and smiled softly: "Go find him if you want."

He couldn't understand the language of the wolf clan, but it didn't prevent him from understanding the meaning of the little wolf.

The little wolf looked up at him, his golden eyes sparkling.

Ning Shiting smiled and said, "The White Wolf of Lingshan should conquer all directions, shouldn't it?"

He pinched one of the little wolf's golden, fat and furry paws and shook it: "Go, this is what Yin Bing wants to see, and we little wolf will grow up together."

Gu Tingshuang and his party had been gone for several hours, and if the little wolf chased them out following the scent, it would probably take them all night to catch up.It's still too young to be very good at Lingshan White Wolf's technique of controlling the wind.

Ning Shiting made him a small package and hung it around its neck, which was filled with heavy dried venison.

The moment the little wolf ran outside and turned around, Ning Shiting suddenly realized that he had become someone he couldn't let go of unknowingly - he was greedy for the cuteness of the little wolf, the people and things of Qing Palace, Gu Ting After Shuang left, no one bothered him anymore, and the whole palace became empty and lonely.

This kind of loneliness was something he had never tasted in his previous life.At that time, he and Gu Tingshuang didn't get in touch with each other for ten years. Although he was lonely and silent most of the time, he knew that in this small world, there was another person just like him.

Gu Tingshuang went well in Chenwu Peak. On the tenth day in the past, he wrote a letter home to Ning Shiting, telling him that the little wolf had joined him, and that there was a pile of dried venison hanging around his neck, without a bite. eat.

This means that the little wolf found this place by hunting all the way.This little fat wolf has learned to hunt after leaving Prince Qing's mansion, and he has the backbone to not eat the dry food that Ning Shiting prepared for him.

Ning Shiting wrote back and said, Got it.

No. On the 20th day, Gu Tingshuang picked a spiritual leaf under the canyon of Chenwu Peak, sent it back to Ning Shiting, and asked him if there was any medicinal material that he needed to help collect here.He knew that he was looking for a substitute for the merman's blood in the soul returning incense.

Ning Shiting replied: "Your Highness, first pick a piece of each kind, and bring it to the minister when you come back."

So besides patrolling around the mountain every day, the little wolf has another task - a grass frame is hung around its neck, and it jumps down into the canyon every day to bite all kinds of strange plants.

The accident happened on the 30th day. This time, Gu Tingshuang hadn't had time to write a letter to Ning Shiting, but Ning Shiting's letter had already arrived.

It was said that there was a new guest in the mansion, but he didn't tell him who it was.

Gu Tingshuang thought about it for a long time, but she didn't think about who this "guest" might be—is it a man or a woman?Is it Ning Shiting's old acquaintance?

He just found out that he had been away from home for a month.

The little wolf wandered around here and began to miss home. Every night before going to bed, he would squat pitifully on the head of the bed and ask Gu Tingshuang to tell him a story about "wolf and fish". Wusiyu will shed tears.

Gu Tingshuang was very impatient with this hypocritical little fat wolf, he patted its furry round head, and spread the letter on the table: "It's been so long, don't you want to be an upright wolf? I don’t raise wolves that desert on the way, I wonder if you felt that you were praised by me when you chased me at first, so you started to drift away, right?”

The little wolf squatted obediently, saying that he didn't have one.

Gu Tingshuang went to grab his tail, but when he lowered his eyes, he glanced at a line on the back of the letter paper, and couldn't help being stunned——

There are words on the back of the letter paper!

He quickly picked it up to read, and found that it was Ning Shiting's handwriting: "His Highness left for [-] days, and finally felt the courtyard was lonely, and I missed him very much. I hope His Highness and Xiaolang are all well."

At that moment, Gu Tingshuang only felt that the blood all over his body rushed to the top of his head, and he imagined the way Ning Shiting wrote these words in his mind - in front of the Xiangge, or by the pavilion lake, looking outside Resting his chin in one hand and holding the stove in the other, he wrote quietly.

For the first time, he realized what it means to return one's heart like an arrow.
