The little princess was torn, and the demon emperor patched her up

Chapter 113 Many fox-faced peddlers surrounded her with their hands in their pockets

The cloud ship travels thousands of miles a day.

Xiao Baojing returned to Julu County on the cloud boat and stepped into the depths of the Julu Mountains again.

"Furong Town..."

She looked at the ancient boundary marker at the entrance of the town and ran into the town cheering, "Peddler! Yaoyao!"

The peddler had a fierce fight with Lan Ru in Gu Song Dynasty. They were evenly matched. Even if the peddler won, he might be seriously injured. The only places she could think of for him to recuperate were Jile Temple and Furong Town.

But the peddler should have known that she was looking for her.

Therefore, it is very likely that he returned to Furong Town, back to the starting place.

He knew she would come here to find him.

Everything in the town remained the same, with mottled shadows of trees and dilapidated houses. Many puppets gathered under the eaves and watched her run past.

But Xiao Baojing was no longer as scared as when he first arrived.

These puppets are so familiar, they are just like her fellow countrymen in this world!

After passing through the criss-crossing streets, Xiao Baojing finally arrived at a familiar place.

A small banana courtyard stands there quietly, with a big red lantern hanging under the eaves!
Xiao Baojing ran over happily: "Peddler! I knew you were back!"

The girl's skirt swirled in the wind, and the string of persimmons on her bag jumped as lightly as her footsteps.

She burst into the house, and it was quiet.

Lifting the bamboo curtain and entering the inner room, the young man was curled up on a low bed with his ponytail tied in a mess. He was only wearing a thin robe and pants, and his naked upper body was casually wrapped with a few circles of white bandages, but the bandages obviously could not stop the bleeding. The blood seeping from the wound almost dyed the bamboo green mattress red, and blood beads dripped along the sheets to the ground.

"The peddler..."

Xiao Baojing murmured.

She had never seen a peddler so badly injured.

She walked forward slowly.

The boy's face was pale, which made his eyelashes look even more dense and black, outlining the tails of his fox eyes in his hair. There were a few unfaded scarlet demonic patterns on his cheeks, like the most gorgeous patterns on the fur of ancient demon beasts.

She squatted down in front of the bed and reached out to touch his forehead.

Fortunately, there is still temperature.

"Your Highness, you are back..."

Suddenly, a faint voice was heard from outside.

Xiao Baojing looked back and saw Yaoyao lying beside the bamboo curtain holding a freshly picked chrysanthemum. She must have just come back from playing outside.

"Yaoyao!" Xiao Baojing asked with concern, "How long has he been unconscious?"

"The master just came back here a few days ago," Yaoyao didn't dare to come in, and looked at Shang Bingjiu with fear, "He has been unconscious since he came back, and the blood from the wound has never stopped! It's scary!"

Xiao Baojing thought to himself that the floor of the inner room was stained dark with blood, and he didn't know where so much blood came from.

She couldn't count on Yaoyao to provide more useful information, so she rummaged through the basket in the corner for a long time before finally finding a bottle of ointment.

It smells strong like medicine, so it might be of some use.

She untied the bandages on Shang Bingjiu's body.

There were more than a dozen wounds on his body, with the skin and flesh turned outward so deep that the bones were visible, which made her terrified.

She asked Yaoyao to boil a basin of hot water, cleaned the wound a little, and poured the bottle of ointment on it.

Perhaps the ointment worked, and after re-bandaging the bandage, the blood no longer stained the gauze red.

Xiao Baojing breathed a sigh of relief, made some noodle soup for Yaoyao and himself, and then went to bed with his clothes on.

Perhaps because she was back to the peddler, she slept very deeply.

In the dark and sweet dream, there was a vast wasteland without sky or boundaries, and she was about to cross an underground river.

Many fox-faced peddlers surrounded her with their hands in their pockets, talking to each other. Some said they should build a raft, some said they should just swim across, some said they could build a stone bridge, and some said they should fly over from the sky.

They all held their own opinions and chattered loudly. She put her hands on her hips and ordered them to be quiet, but none of them would listen to her. Instead, they quarreled even louder, and her ears were about to explode...

The morning light danced on the girl's smooth jade-like cheeks.

Xiao Baojing muttered: "You are so annoying, so annoying..." A clear voice came from his ear: "Not annoying."

Xiao Baojing was stunned for a moment.

Then, she suddenly opened her eyes: "Are you awake?"

The boy's face enlarged before my eyes.

She has a charming figure, red lips and white teeth, her sharp teeth touching her thin lips, and her fox eyes are curved when she smiles, like a sharp yet gentle moon.

Xiao Baojing sat up suddenly, stared at him for a moment, then suddenly rushed towards him and hugged his neck tightly: "I'm glad you're okay!"

The little girl is delicate and soft, like a sweet and sticky red bean paste rice cake.

Shang Bingjiu placed his big hand on her lower back, and she made him smile.

"Forget your injury..."

Xiao Baojing realized it later and was about to move away, but Shang Bingjiu held his waist tightly.

Although he looked so thin, he was very strong. She was pressed against his chest and couldn't even move.

Shang Bingjiu touched her nose with his nose and said, "Little Princess, don't you have anything you want to ask?"

The tip of the boy's nose felt warm and cool.

This reminded Xiao Baojing of the time when he touched the puppy, and the puppy's nose also felt warm, cool and moist.

She stared into Shang Bingjiu's fox eyes and said seriously: "I do have a lot of things I want to ask you, but if I ask, will you tell me honestly? For example, are you a human or a monster, have you swallowed Gu Song's dragon vein, are you the same person as Chao Yuan and Lan Ru, you..."

Do you want to swallow the sun too?

Shang Bingjiu did not answer.

The slender jade-like fingertips twisted the messy hair hanging from the girl's forehead and slowly tucked it behind her ears.

He stroked Xiao Baojing's cheek. The girl's face was plump and rosy, like a fresh little apple.

He asked, "Besides these, why don't you ask me how I feel about you?"

His avoidance of the question further confirmed some of Xiao Baojing's guesses.

Her heart felt like it was sinking into the deep ocean. She really didn't understand why the peddler was so obsessed with swallowing the sun.

It turned out that after all her efforts, she failed to prevent the world from falling into darkness.

She was in a heavy mood and no longer interested in the love affairs of her children. She said perfunctorily, "Then what kind of feelings do you have for me?"

Shang Bingjiu did not answer her directly.

He opened his mouth and gently held Xiao Baojing's head.

Xiao Baojing: "..."

What is wrong with these people?!
Why do you always like to hold her head in your mouth?

Her head isn't a lollipop!

She gritted her teeth and said, "If you don't let me go, I will never talk to you again!"

Shang Bingjiu said regretfully: "Little Princess doesn't like it?"

"I like it, that's for sure!"

...

It was already dusk when we boarded the cloud boat back to Yejing.

Xiao Baojing dragged Shang Bingjiu and hurried to the academy.

The academy was in chaos. Lu Xueying came up and said that Xiao Yulou was missing and everyone was looking for her everywhere.

A young palace maid ran over and said, "Crown Princess, I found Her Royal Highness the Princess in front of the Prince Consort's grave!"

The prince consort's tomb was only two miles away from the academy.

Everyone rushed over, only to see Xiao Yulou, dishevelled and dirty, hugging the tombstone and crying.
