Chapter 16 Depend on each other (2)
The group rushed to the camp gate, the body had been moved aside, and the number of guards reached a team.
When checking the body, he found that most of the soldiers were killing each other. Lonna, who was a little disappointed, couldn't help but mutter: "Damn, I thought it was really so powerful! Kayla, how many people did you send to track it?"
Kaira hurriedly said, "Your Highness, the prince, have sent out all the elite soldiers under his command, and there are 500 people." Speaking of this, Kaira turned her eyes and leaned against Lonna's ear and muttered a few words.
Lonner nodded, then looked around and glanced at the officers around him, and ordered loudly: "Light cavalry and scout cavalry, immediately search and reconnaissance on the mainland of Qihong! Then search for the princess! Other soldiers are in squad and take turns to rest!"
This is not what Ronna suddenly controlled the army, but Keira reminded him in his ear, because they will start siegeing cities and land tomorrow.
Enno reacted contrary to Lonna, because he learned the horror of this enemy. This was seen from the destroyed lantern placed on the ground.
He knew that the enemy attacked first, destroying the lighting equipment during the attack, causing the people on his side to suddenly fall into darkness. Because of the enemy's attack just now, they panic and unable to slash their swords, and the enemy took this opportunity to escape.
When he heard that Kaila sent five hundred people to follow him, Enno smiled that others could not notice because he knew that these five hundred people could not gather together to track them, and they would definitely need to be scattered into dozens of ways. Even if such a few people on each road could catch up with the princess, the result would be self-evident.
"Who is this person who protects the princess? I really hope he becomes my subordinate."
This is the difference between Ennuo and his elder brother. If a beautiful princess and a general who can be civil and martial, he would choose a general without hesitation.
After running for a day, before nightfall, the white horse left the grassland and entered the mountainous area just before nightfall.
Alice felt that her lower body had lost consciousness, so she could only let Cons help her walk. When the blood circulation was smooth, Alice felt that her buttocks and thighs were terrifyingly painful, and her mouth was trembling. How could she have suffered such pain when she was spoiled? If it weren't for the great responsibility of the country and the family's destruction on her delicate shoulders, she might have cried immediately.
Cons saw the princess's difficulty walking and knew what harm she had suffered, because her new cavalry had also suffered these injuries. Cons, who had only been riding for an hour, suddenly ran for a long time. He was considered powerful if he didn't fall down directly.
Cons originally wanted to ask, but when he thought of the difference between men and women, he closed his mouth, gritted his teeth, held the princess with one hand, and held the white horse gasping with the other hand, and walked towards the top of the mountain with difficulty.
At dusk, the two finally found a dry shelter to settle down.
Cons helped the princess to a mountain spring not far away, found a slightly flat stone for the princess to sit down, and then led the white horse to let it enjoy the cool spring water. It had great achievements. If it weren't for it, the two of them would have been caught back long ago.
While pounding her thighs, Alice frowned and looked at Cons drinking with spring water in both hands. Alice instinctively felt that Cons was very rude. He actually drank water on his own? Could it be that he, a lady, didn't need to take care of him?
Originally, because of her princess status, she subconsciously thought that Cons should serve her, but when she thought that she had not shown her identity to Cons, Cons thought that she was a palace maid and could not treat herself as a princess as before. However, what Alice was very dissatisfied was that even if she was a palace maid, you should take care of the lady first, not yourself.
Seeing that Cons and Baima were drinking water and drinking continuously, Lis, who had already smoked from his throat, finally couldn't help but get up and come to the mountain spring, holding the spring water in both hands, and drank it.
Alice never thought that the spring water was so sweet and so cool that the drinks in the palace were incomparable.
When Alice raised her head with satisfaction, Cons had already sorted out her clothes and led the drunk white horse aside, allowing it to chew on the grass on the ground.
Horses are everywhere in these places, and now Cons needs to consider the issue of food for two people.
Seeing the birds that started returning to their nests because the sun was about to set, and the hares that rushed past the cave, Cons couldn't help but sigh that it would be great if he had a bow and arrow, at least he didn't have to consider the issue of food.
Looking at the saber in his hand, Cons was a little confused. What prey can this weapon hunt in this mountain?
Thinking of this, Cons smiled helplessly and shouted to the princess: "Don't leave here, don't make a fire, I'll go find food." After that, he left the place without waiting for the princess to respond.
Looking at Cons's back, Alice stretched out and opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything. Alice knew what she wanted to say, and she was afraid that Cons would leave her here and never return. However, as the pride of being the heir to the Qihongguo, she would never allow herself to say these weak words.
"It shouldn't be. Cons is an outstanding warrior loyal to the kingdom. He will not do such a moral thing. He will definitely take me back to the capital. I should believe him."
Alice can only cheer herself up in her heart, otherwise she will not be able to stabilize her fear of gains and losses.
However, at this moment, she often forgot that she had certainly believed that Cons did not know her identity, and at the beginning, she used Cons to know her identity to ask Cons to be loyal to her.
This is very contradictory. Perhaps this is because Alice now has no one to rely on except Cons. Although she doesn't know, she subconsciously regards Cons as her most loyal knight, that is, her final support, so she can't help but have such a chaotic thinking situation.
After thinking about it for a while, Alice suddenly realized that the sky was dark and looked around. Apart from the sound of the dinging spring water, there was silence around. The shadows of trees around her swaying with the wind. Alice immediately felt an inexplicable sense of fear. She wanted to find some branches to make fire, hoping that the flame would relieve her fear, but when she thought of what Cons said when she left, she forced herself to give up.
Because she understood that the firelight would attract the attention of the tracker, you should know that the firelight in the mountains at night is enough to be seen for miles away.
The sound of crows and the shaking black shadows from time to time made Alice, who was increasingly frightened, had already walked to the white horse and held the white horse to sway.
Unfortunately, Baima couldn't give her a sense of security, which made her whisper: "Why haven't you come back yet? Where did you go to find prey? What should I do? It's already so late, he won't leave alone, right? No, I must not, I must have not found food yet, or he found food, but got lost and couldn't find it? Ah, what should I do if it's like this?"
When Alice thought of this, she couldn't help looking around, hoping to see Cons, but everything she saw was dark, so Alice had to withdraw her mind and focus on the white horse.
The fierce white horse of Mercedes-Benz was already asleep at this time. If it weren't a super breeding horse, it would have been exhausted for a long time. After all, it ran for hundreds of miles on its back.
Aware of the fatigue of the white horse, Alice gently stroked the white horse's hair. She originally wanted to ride a horse to find Cons, but now the white horse is asleep. Cons also said not to leave here, so let's continue waiting.
When I thought of Cons, I don’t know why the fear in my heart disappeared a little. Perhaps Cons’s efforts to protect Alice’s image made Alice feel safe. When I think of these things, Alice is looking forward to Cons’ return.
Suddenly, Alice heard the sound of stepping on the branches. Although the sound was not very loud, it was extremely amazing in the mountains. Alice's hair stood up all its hair. She hugged the white horse tightly and asked in a trembling voice: "Who?"
"I."
With this plain tone, Alice suddenly felt as if she was full of strength and was full of energy. She couldn't help but say in surprise: "Why did you come back so late? People..."
Speaking of this, Alice immediately closed her mouth with a flushed face, because she suddenly felt that her tone was a bit like when her wife finally waited for her husband who had not returned home for a long time.
Although there was moonlight, the branches blocked most of the light, which made Alice unable to see Cons' appearance clearly, nor could she see what prey Cons had hit.
When Cons came, Alice finally saw Cons holding a few pheasant-like things in his hand. It seemed that this was today's dinner.
Alice, who was childish, completely forgot about the fear just now and watched Cons prepare dinner with great enthusiasm.
I saw Cons take out a waterproof cowhide bag from his arms, and it should have been a while since that look and color. Through the hazy moonlight, Alice found some fragments inside, but she really couldn't see clearly what it was, and she couldn't help but ask, "What are the ones inside?"
"Salt, fire, needles, daggers, scissors." Cons said simply, taking out a sharp dagger to open the belly of the pheasant. Then he dug some mud, combined with the spring water to make it mud, and finally wrapped the pheasant with fur and skin.
Alice said with interest: "This is beggar **? Why is it so simple? I remember that it should be to keep the pheasant's body intact, and directly from the pheasant's fart..." Alice blushed and felt a little embarrassed when she said this, but she continued: "From the pheasant's internal organs out of there, then fill it with seasonings such as garlic, scallion, oil, and salt, then wrap it with red paste, and finally bake it slowly over charcoal fire."
"You know so much." Cons looked at Alice with a little surprise. He had never eaten such a particular beggar chicken. Not to mention anything else, I don't know where to find the red mud alone.
Alice was afraid that Cons would know her identity, so she couldn't help but explain: "This is what I saw in the palace for the Royal Kitchen." Without waiting for Cons to respond, she continued: "By the way, didn't you tell me not to make a fire? Then why do you beg for the chicken?"
Cons did not answer, but made an object to cover it with rotten wood and branches at the leeward, and then a fire was created inside.
Alice, who was staying outside, looked at the scene in front of her foolishly. Didn’t she say that the firelight at night could be transmitted far away? Why did he block the firelight by just doing it casually?
Alice, who was staying in the fire, saw Cons silently adding wood. She felt that the atmosphere of both sides was a little awkward, and she couldn't help but muster up the courage to raise the topic: "Cons, is your cowhide bag that all soldiers must match?"
"No, it's just my personal habit." Cons said softly.
He was touching the cowhide bag and couldn't help but thank him for his habit of living in the wild all year round. If it weren't for this habit, the two of them would probably stay in the mountains with cold and hungry all night. At that time, my uncle would be suffering from his injuries.
Alice and Cons were chatting together. Alice had never seen such a guy who yelled at him. Is it so boring to talk to him? He always answered so concisely, and never said more if he could say a word less. It was so frugal.
When Alice was angrily trying to blame Cons, Cons pulled out the beggar chicken and smashed the mud shell on the outer layer, revealing the tender croquette meat inside.
Alice, who had been so hungry that she was roaring, was not polite when she caught it and started eating.
At this time, the princess didn't think she was rude, because she thought that she could fully play the role of a vulgar palace maid.
After eating and drinking, the princess was a little scared and blushed to solve her personal hygiene, both sides went to bed. Of course, they slept separately with the fire as the dividing line.
At first, the princess was worried and couldn't sleep. She was half worried that the enemy would come after her late at night, and half afraid that Cons would do anything.
But when the feeling of nervous and hard work came up for the day, the Gongshang immediately fell asleep and sold her at this time. I believe she didn't know either.
And Cons, who was leaning outside to admire the night, slowly fell asleep. He had already made simple alarm devices around him, and no one could get close to this place without waking him up.
