Chapter 480: Encountering Long Ban and meeting Yang Dou
After spending a night in the Western Yi Army camp, the four continued their journey eastward.
The spring sun was shining, the breeze was gentle, and the weather was much better than the previous few days. This made the four of them less gloomy, and their mood became more cheerful, and they walked more easily.
Xiaoying said, "Sister Xiaoxuan, we came from such a far place like Baihua Island, and you said that the general didn't even come to greet us. That's really not nice of him!"
Xiao Xuan said: "Firstly, the general didn't know we were coming, and secondly, he had military duties to attend to, so he certainly couldn't leave easily."
Xiaoying said: "You always speak for him and leave my sister alone on Baihua Island. I don't think he is a good person!"
Xiaoxuan smiled and didn't argue.
Du Heng said: "Isn't Baihua Island good? I think it's much better than those places in the East Continent."
Xiaoying said: "If you can't be with the person you love, no matter how good the place is, it's meaningless."
The other three were speechless when they heard her say this.
Xiaoying added: "What kind of person is the general? When I asked my sister, he always kept silent. But when I asked her too much, she got angry and said I was making trouble."
Xiao Xuan paused for a while before saying, "Although I haven't met the general many times, he is a very good person."
Xiaoying said, "That's good. If he is a tyrant, we won't give him my sister's letter."
The other three laughed.
Du Heng was worried about something else, so she asked Chu Xiaomu, "Brother Xiaomu, you said Yang Dou has a heart disease. Will he...will he not recognize me?"
Chu Xiaomu said quickly, "How could that be? I know that guy Adou. Even if he forgets everyone in the world, he will never forget you. Besides, his personality has just changed a little, he has not suffered from amnesia."
Du Heng was overjoyed, but she accused Chu Xiaomu of lying.
As they were talking, Cheng Huang suddenly stood still, then stood up and screamed loudly a few times, broke free from the reins in Chu Xiaomu's hands, and ran towards the southeast.
Everyone was puzzled and didn't know why it suddenly ran away. Chu Xiaomu wanted to chase it, but even though he was fast, how could he be faster than Cheng Huang? In the blink of an eye, Cheng Huang disappeared. He called out loudly, but Cheng Huang didn't seem to hear him.
However, Chu Xiaomu was not worried, because he knew that it must have run away because of something, and it would always come back in the end and would never abandon him like this.
Not long after, the sound of hurried horse hooves was heard from the southeast again, and there was more than one horse's hooves, rumbling like the sound of thousands of troops.
The horses were approaching in the blink of an eye. Chu Xiaomu counted them and found that there were only ten including Cheng Huang. Looking carefully, the other nine horses all had red fur and a pair of white curved spots on the left and right sides of their backs, like a pair of wings attached to their bodies. They were the nine dragon zebras from Red One to Red Nine!
Chu Xiaomu was overjoyed and rushed over, calling their names.
The dragon zebras still recognized Chu Xiaomu and rubbed against him, showing their affection.
Chu Xiaomu rode on the yellow horse and led the dragons to the three women, saying happily, "We have horses to ride!"
Xiaoying frowned and said, "Stupid, even horses like you so much, are you also a horse in disguise?"
Chu Xiaomu was in a good mood and laughed, "Brother, I am the reincarnation of a horse in this life. If you follow me in the future, you will have to flatter me more."
Xiaoying kept saying "Puh, you wild boy" and said, "You are so stinky, I won't follow you."
Xiaoxuan and Duheng both smiled.
The zebra had no saddle, so Chu Xiaomu simply split the green cloak in two and put it on the horse's back to use as a cloth saddle, which was light, soft and comfortable.
But among the three girls, except Xiaoxuan who can ride a horse, Xiaoying and Duheng don’t know how to ride a horse, and they can’t learn it in a short time.
The four of them had to share a dragon zebra, Chu Xiaomu and Xiaoying rode one, Xiaoxuan and Du Heng rode another. The dragon zebra was extremely majestic, even two strong men could ride it, not to mention that the four of them were not too heavy.
Xiaoying was hugged tightly by Chu Xiaomu. Her face immediately turned red and she scolded, "Let go of your dirty hands!"
As soon as these words came out, Chu Xiaomu was struck by lightning. It turned out that he suddenly remembered that he met Jin Li'er, Chang Lun and others on the official road of Bicheng more than a year ago. At that time, he held Jin Li'er hostage, and she said exactly the same words.
Seeing that Chu Xiaomu really let go, Xiaoying became unhappy again and shouted, "Stinky wood, dead wood! You...you want to throw me to death!"
Chu Xiaomu had no choice but to hug her tighter. With her warmth and softness in his arms, the girl's body fragrance filled his nose, and he seemed to be floating in the clouds.
Although the dragon zebra was not as fast as the yellow horse, it was not much slower. The journey from the vicinity of the Western Yi Army camp to the west bank of the Kun River was 500 miles. They set out at noon and arrived at twilight the next evening.
It was already completely dark, but the zebras were still running, obviously they could see in the dark.
Suddenly, two rows of flames appeared on the road ahead. Several soldiers from Bicheng heard the sound of horse hooves from afar and stood on the road to block the way.
A soldier in silver armor holding a black spear stood majestically in the middle of the road and shouted, "Who's coming from the west? Get off your horse quickly, you can't pass by!"
When Chu Xiaomu heard the voice, he was immediately overjoyed and asked loudly: "Is that Xiaodou in front?!"
The man was indeed Yang Dou. He also recognized Chu Xiaomu's voice and asked, "Are you Xiao...Xiaomu?"
Chu Xiaomu replied: "I am Chu Xiaomu!" With a little force, the dragon under his crotch rushed out first.
Chu Xiaomu got off the horse holding Xiaoying, rushed over and hugged Yang Dou, laughing non-stop.
Yang Dou said: "Xiao Mu, I haven't heard from you for so long, I thought you...you had an accident at Humu Pass. I asked the general many times, and he said he didn't know..."
Chu Xiaomu said: "Let's not talk about this for now, guess who I brought to you?"
Yang Dou naturally saw Xiaoying as well, and pointed at her and said, "She...she...isn't she the one you said lives in a very high place..."
Xiaoying was very upset and shouted, "My name is Xiaoying, you idiot, have you forgotten it so quickly?!"
Chu Xiaomu said, "I'm not talking about her." He walked to the dark and led Du Heng over, and said happily, "Look who she is?"
Yang Dou looked at the pretty face in front of him becoming brighter and clearer in the firelight, and was stunned for a moment. The spear in his hand fell to the ground with a snap.
Du Heng didn't dare to look at Yang Dou. She looked at the ground, biting her lips lightly, and it was unclear whether she was smiling or shy on her face.
Yang Dou could hardly believe what he saw and rubbed his eyes hurriedly.
Isn't this girl in front of me the one I gave her a token of love on the Ancestor Worship Day more than two years ago?
