Chapter 249 Hei Xiazi's Little Princess 9
While Hei Xia Zi and the others were resting, Wu Xie on the other side had just experienced a miserable experience of being sucked blood by a grass beer bug, and he and Fatty Wang were dealing with the bugs together.
"This bug is too powerful, it almost sucked all my blood dry." Fatty Wang helped Wu Xie sit down slowly in pain.
"Brother is still the best, bugs dare not come near him." Wu Xie envied the brother's physique.
Just then Zhang Qiling came back and threw the herbs he had picked into the fire to drive away the insects.
"I don't know what happened to Xiaohua and Gege," Wu Xie thought of Li Yuchen.
"It's okay, I'm here," Zhang Qiling said to Wu Xie when he saw that he was worried.
Fatty Wang heard what they said and said, "The person you are talking about is the head of the Beijing city, right?"
"Fatty, do you also know the Jiumen Jie family?" Pan Zi also interjected.
"This Mr. Xie is a very powerful figure in Beijing, and I am just a small figure in Panjiayuan. Although I know him, he may not recognize me." Fatty Wang smiled self-deprecatingly.
"They are carrying a child, they may not be as safe as us." After treating his wounds, Aning leaned against a tree to rest and poured a basin of cold water on them.
"Why did they bring a child to the Queen Mother of the West Palace? It's so dangerous." Fatty Wang scratched his head in confusion.
Wu Xie was about to tell Fatty Wang, but he looked at Aning and stopped talking.
Zhang Qiling also looked at Wu Xie and shook his head.
Fatty Wang scanned the faces of the two people with his sharp eyes, and instantly perceived the subtle changes in their expressions. With years of experience, he knew clearly: there must be something here that Aning, this woman, must not know! So, he tactfully shut his mouth and stopped asking questions. After all, sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing.
At this time, the night was as dark as ink, as if a huge piece of black silk covered the entire earth. The surroundings were quiet, and only the occasional chirping of insects broke the tranquility. Everyone was exhausted after running around all day. So everyone found a comfortable place to settle down and prepare to have a good rest so as to recuperate.
...........................................................................
Xie Yuchen slept lightly for about three hours. He opened his eyes and checked that Gege was still sleeping. He got up quietly and went outside the tent.
"Hei Xia Zi, go inside and sleep. I'll keep watch."
"Why did you get up?" Hei Xia Zi was adding firewood to the fire.
"You've rested enough." Xie Yuchen sat next to Hei Xia Zi.
"Hei Xia Zi, you are a bannerman, right? Otherwise, the princess wouldn't call you Ama."
"I am a Mongolian, from the Borjigit clan," Hei Xiazi said silently.
"Borjigit? That's a noble family name." Xie Yuchen was a little surprised. Hei Xiazi just smiled and said nothing more, adding another piece of wood to the fire.
"You go into the tent and have a rest. Speak quietly so as not to wake up the princess." Xie Yuchen insisted on letting Hei Xia Zi have a rest.
"Then you have to be careful! If you encounter any trouble or anything goes wrong, be sure to call me loudly!" Hei Xia Zi said as he turned his head slightly and looked at Li Yuchen. However, because his iconic sunglasses covered most of his face, others could not see what his eyes meant at the moment. Perhaps, only Zhang Qiling, who had been with him for a long time and was very familiar with him, could see through this ink-colored barrier and understand what he really thought in his heart.
At this moment, a low cry suddenly came from the tent. The two hurried in to check, only to see that Gege had woken up and was looking around in horror. After seeing Hei Xiazi and Jie Yuchen, she threw herself into Hei Xiazi's arms and started crying.
"Don't be afraid, it's okay." Hei Xia Zi comforted softly.
"Snake... There is a snake..." Gege leaned towards Ama's cup in fear.
"Uncle Huaer, why don't we both stay here with her, otherwise she won't sleep well." Hei Xiazi hugged Gege with heartache.
"It will be dawn in four hours, there will be no danger now."
Xie Yuchen nodded, worried that the child would have a nightmare and be overly frightened without an adult by his side.
Hei Xia Zi patted Gege's back gently and hummed an unknown little tune to calm her.
After a while, Gege gradually calmed down and fell asleep. Hei Xiazi carefully placed her on the bed.
"This child has been through so much with us. It's hard for her." Xie Yuchen said softly.
"Yes, but as long as we can protect her well, it will be fine." Hei Xia Zi replied.
The princess woke up at dawn. Hei Xia Zi and Jie Yu Chen had already packed their simple bags. "Uncles, where are we going today?" the princess asked, rubbing her eyes.
"We need to find a safe place where there are lots of delicious food and fun things to do." Hei Xia Zi coaxed her with a smile.
"Daddy, I want to go to the toilet." Gege's face was red with shyness. "Then I'll go with you." Xie Yuchen said and took Gege's hand. Hei Xiazi stayed where he was, guarding the bag and being alert to the surroundings.
Xie Yuchen took Gege to a hidden bush. After Gege had solved her personal problem, he wiped her clean with a handkerchief.
After returning to the camp, Xie Yuchen gave the princess a simple wipe.
Hei Xiazi threw the compressed biscuits into the pot and added a small bag of dehydrated vegetables. After a while, he cooked a pot of fragrant vegetable porridge.
When the princess smelled the fragrance, she ran over happily, "Wow, it smells so good." Hei Xia Zi scooped out a bowl of porridge, blew it cool and handed it to the princess, "Be careful of the heat, eat slowly." The princess took the bowl and started eating in big mouthfuls.
After breakfast, the three continued on their journey.
Not far from the three of them, Wu Xie and his group suddenly encountered a terrifying black python! The python was incredibly huge, and its scales were shining with a dark light.
Faced with this sudden crisis, everyone was stunned. However, at this moment, Zhang Qiling stepped forward without hesitation, holding a black gold ancient knife, with a firm and cold look in his eyes. He flashed and rushed towards the black python at lightning speed.
Zhang Qiling's movements were extremely swift, and each of his strikes was fierce and powerful, as he slashed at the giant python. But the giant python was no pushover either, as it twisted its body flexibly, opened its bloody mouth, and continuously launched fierce attacks at Zhang Qiling. For a while, the two fought back and forth, neither giving in.
Fatty Wang held a black pistol, his face trembling with nervousness. He stared at the giant python that was twisting its body and spitting out scarlet tongue with his eyes wide open. Pan Zi, who was standing next to him, held another long gun tightly with both hands. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, but the gun in his hand was steady without any shaking. The two of them had a tacit understanding and pulled the trigger almost at the same time. The sound of gunfire continued, and bullets shot towards the giant python like meteors.
