Chapter 422 The unexpected late-night visitor and the moon
This ancient world is not like modern society. Ethics are strict and girls are much more conservative. It is already very bold to take action. As for letting a man touch her slender feet? That is almost no different from touching her anywhere else.
Chu Zheng quickly gave up this unrealistic idea, took out the bottle of slaughter wine specially refined by Cheng Lingsu and handed it to Ajiu, and then said, "I'll go to the room next to you tonight. You can go to bed after rubbing the wound."
Ajiu hurriedly called him: "Young Master..."
Chu Zheng turned around: "Hmm?"
Ajiu hugged the quilt, buried most of her face in the quilt, and whispered: "It became so cold as soon as you leave here, and I am alone, a little scared..."
Chu Zheng was stunned.
It was snowstorm outside, and the windows were repaired, but the cold wind was still drilling into the window cracks and tiny broken places. There were also many holes in the tiles on the roof, making this dilapidated room without a warm kang freezing like an ice cave.
The night wind whimpered, like howling ghosts and wolves. The old windows also made squeaks and shaking sounds that made people sore teeth.
The ruined temple, snowy night, cold and lonely, how could a girl like Ajiu not feel afraid?
Thinking about this, Chu Zheng interrupted her and said, "The room next to her is really too dilapidated. Our children in the world don't pay much attention to it. We are in a hurry to do it. I will practice in this corner tonight. You have a good rest. I won't get close to you." As he said that, he found a corner and sat cross-legged. The heat quickly spread from his body, and soon the house became as warm as spring.
"Thank you, Young Master." Ajiu's little face turned slightly red, but his eyes flashed with gratitude.
For a girl, it would be bad to be alone in the same room late at night with a man she was not familiar with. Now Chu Zheng takes the initiative to propose it, the meaning is completely different.
Ajiu couldn't help but think, the young master is so careful and gentle, his fiancée will definitely be very happy.
Seeing that Chu Zheng was indeed closing his eyes and practicing cross-legged, Ajiu secretly pulled his feet out of the brocade quilt, took off his silk stockings, and saw that his snow-white and tender right ankle had swollen, and it was very swollen.
She stretched out her hand and pressed it gently, which made her feel so painful that she was sucking cold.
She was born in a wealthy family, and even if she was around the world, she never lacked guards and maids. This time she sneaked out alone, Cheng Qingzhu took care of her more, and never tried to suffer such pain.
But thinking that if the medicine is not applied, it will probably be even worse tomorrow, and I am afraid that I will not even be able to get rid of the ground. This may drag down the young master and delay his preparation of gifts for his fiancée.
Ajiu bit her teeth, tried to pour some medicinal wine, and gently rubbed the wound with her hands. "Ouch!" The heart-wrenching soreness immediately caused cold sweat to appear on the girl's forehead, and tears also appeared in her eyes.
"Or... I'll rub it for you, my true energy can speed up the healing of the injury."
Hearing Chu Zheng's slightly helpless voice came from more than ten steps away, Ajiu looked up and looked at him with tears in his eyes. Seeing that he was always facing his back, he must have heard his crying pain.
"Young Master...Woo..."
For some reason, when Chu Zheng made a sound, Ajiu couldn't help but feel a sense of grievance from his heart, and choked up softly, his voice was pitiful, like an abandoned puppy.
Chu Zheng sighed, got up and walked over, sat down beside her bed, and reached out and said, "Give me the medicinal wine."
Ajiu wanted to take his white and tender feet back into the brocade quilt, but he finally held it back, but his face was covered with blush. He secretly glanced at Chu Zheng, and then obediently handed him the medicinal wine in his hand.
Chu Zheng didn't talk nonsense. After taking it, he poured some medicinal wine into his palms, rubbed his hands to warm it up, and then reached out to hold Ajiu's white and tender feet.
But I feel that it is smooth and smooth, like white jade in mutton fat. On the little toes that are as white as onions, there are crystal clear round toenails. The back of the feet is small and round, and even the skin on the soles of the feet is amazingly soft and delicate.
Chu Zheng had never touched a woman's slender feet before, but this was the first time he had touched her after coming to this world.
Even Guo Xiang and Qin Ruyun are relatively close girls, he just held hands and had no chance to hold their slender feet in his hands like this.
I have to say that Ajiu's slender feet are extremely beautiful, snow-white and tender, and can almost even see the blood vessels inside. With Chu Zheng's rock-solid mind, he had a brief distraction.
However, Chu Zheng was Chu Zheng after all. Chu Zheng, who was extremely experienced, regained his calmness in the blink of an eye. He fixed Ajiu's soles with one hand, and used the other hand to activate the true energy of the immortality of the Divine Raider. While injecting Ajiu's swollen ankle, he gently kneaded it.
Ajiu hummed twice at the beginning, but as the special medicine and the warm Shenzhao Changsheng True Qi flowed into the wound, the sprained ankle became hot, as if soaking in a hot spring, which was extremely comfortable.
Feeling the temperature of Chu Zheng's palm, the girl's pretty and unparalleled face was as red as fire. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Chu Zheng, let alone look at her slender feet that were kneaded in her hands.
I don’t know how long it took, but Ajiu felt that he might have lived his whole life, but it seemed that he had only just passed a while. The feeling of time was missing out on parting. She was dizzy and she didn’t know when she had leaned softly on Chu Zheng.
"Okay, you go to bed quickly, you should get better tomorrow."
Chu Zheng let go of Ajiu's slender feet, put her back into the brocade quilt, and quietly helped her to lie back into the bed, and then returned to the original corner and sat cross-legged again.
Everything seemed to have never happened, but Chu Zheng seemed to be able to smell the sweet girl's fragrance that lingers in his heart.
Chu Zheng breathed slowly for a few times before he could regain his mind.
The bonfire was light and dark, and Chu Zheng added a firewood to it casually.
The sparks exploded.
"Young Master..." The soft girl's voice came from the bed.
Chu Zheng turned around and saw Ajiu huddled in the brocade quilt, only her little head was exposed, and her little face was still red, as delicate as a crabapple, as beautiful as a rose.
When he came into contact with Chu Zheng's gaze, Ajiu shyly turned away and whispered: "I can't sleep... Master, can you tell me a story?"
The girl's nice voice has a little sweet and glutinous nasal sound, as if she is acting cute.
No, this is just acting cute, okay?
Chu Zheng really wanted to say to Ajiu, girl, don’t act coquettishly towards men in such a cute tone. There are few people in the world who can withstand it.
——But think about the day since she met Ajiu, she has never acted coquettishly in front of others. Even when facing Chu Hongliu's pressure, she did not show any weakness of being timid and begging for mercy. Why did she become so coquettish in front of herself?
Could it be that she became extremely weak and coquettish because she was uncomfortable and sprained?
Seeing that Chu Zheng didn't say anything, Ajiu shouted softly again: "Young Master..."
Somehow, Chu Zheng's mind looked like Guo Xiang was acting coquettish again, and after changing "Young Master..." to "Little Junior Brother...", it was almost exactly the same.
Are cute girls acting like this in such a similar way?
No, why do you think of Guo Xiang when you see Ajiu acting cute? You should go to see Guo Xiang quickly. This must be because you haven't seen Guo Xiang with contraceptive symptoms for too long.
Chu Zheng sighed: "Okay, what story do you want to hear?"
As soon as he heard that there was a show, Ajiu immediately became energetic and immediately took the opportunity to say, "Just tell your story."
It's the purpose after all, but my story... There are many circulating in the world. If you talk casually, this little girl may see through her identity.
Seeing Chu Zheng hesitating, Ajiu looked at him again, and shouted softly: "Young Master~~~"
"Speak seriously, don't use such a tone!" Chu Zheng raised his face. If he heard her act coquettishly, he would probably even be defeated if he continued to act like this.
Ajiu suddenly retracted into the brocade quilt, only revealing his eyes, pouting and saying, "You said you are not cruel to me..."
Sure enough, if you look good, you will look very cute when you do any action. Chu Zheng quickly turned his face and stopped looking at her: "...I admit defeat, can't I tell stories?"
Ajiu immediately showed a happy expression: "Hehe."
Chu Zheng thought for a while and simply said, "Tell you about my childhood."
"Uh-huh."
"I'll talk about this first, and then I'll go to bed after I've said it."
"Okay~~~~"
Chu Zheng chose this story mainly because his childhood experiences are very common in this troubled world, and it does not involve his experiences as Chu Loujun in this world. Ajiu would never think of him as Chu Loujun.
As for his childhood story, if it weren't for the recent adoption of Niu Niu and that he would slowly start to face up to this dark childhood, he would probably never have mentioned it to others.
“I was born in a small village on the border…”
Ajiu couldn't help laughing, "Didn't you insist that you were the stupid son of the landlord of Chujiazhuang, Jicheng? But half of her face was hidden in the brocade quilt, so Chu Zheng didn't notice the beautiful curves that curled up the corners of her mouth.
"My parents are honest farmers, and I have a sister and a little sister. The small village we are in is very close to the grassland. The villagers in the village fled to the border of this grassland because they were famine. The land they reclaimed there is not fertile. Working hard for a year may not allow the whole family to have a full meal. However, because they are close to the grassland and those fierce alien tribes, the government rarely comes to collect grain, and the grassland alien tribes are too lazy to pay attention to small villages like us, so everyone can barely survive."
"As far as I can remember, I was running wildly in the grassland with barefoot. My mother was very skillful and could use grass leaves to weave various small insects for me, such as grasshoppers and mantis. I would be able to play with it for a day..."
Ajiu had never seen the grassland, nor had he ever heard of such a life experience. He listened with relish. He thought of the little Chu Zheng squatting in the grass and playing with grass-woven grass grass.
But Chu Zheng's next story slowly made the smile on her face disappear.
"But this day lasted for a few years. When I was three years old, shortly after my little sister was born, a foreign race from the deep grassland became stronger and stronger, and annexed the small tribes on the edge of the grassland. From then on, three or five murderers riding horses and holding scimitars broke into the village to grab food, and would kidnap women..."
"My father and mother were very scared. They felt that the situation was getting more and more dangerous. They wanted to leave the village and escape, but they were reluctant to leave the crops that were about to be harvested. My mother had just given birth to a younger sister and could not get out of bed, so she delayed it. My mother was originally very beautiful, but in order not to be taken by those evil people, she cried and scratched dozens of knife marks on her face with scissors..."
"I still remember that autumn that year, the aliens in the grassland crossed the border to fight the autumn wind, and robbed the property when they saw it, especially various iron tools such as hoes and sickles. My father and mother were timid and did not dare to resist, but just hugged me and my sister and my younger sister who had just been born less than two months old. They were whipped a few times. My father's left leg was trampled by the horses of the aliens, but he finally escaped and saved his life... The rest of the villagers who resisted were killed by those who raised their knives..."
"From that year, I started my life of escape with my parents. We rarely stayed in the same place for more than two years, because with the invasion of the grassland alien race, the officers and soldiers retreated step by step, and the border line continued to move backwards. We had just lived there not long ago, and that place became the border again..."
Ajiu's eyes turned red when she heard that Chu Zheng's family was refused entry into the city because they could not afford to interfere with the guards and had to live in the abandoned village for a while, but her younger sister was buried under the first snow in winter, she finally couldn't help but shed tears.
Hearing the sobs, Chu Zheng suddenly woke up.
Later, he had actually forgotten that he was telling a story with Ajiu, which was more like a confrontation of his dark past.
To his surprise, after looking at the past in this way, the darkness and coldness that had been hidden in his heart were diluted and he felt much more relaxed.
At the same time, it seemed as if something that bound his soul was quietly releasing, and he could even vaguely feel that his mental power had undergone a long evolution.
Chu Zheng turned around and saw Ajiu crying loudly, with tears on his face, so he pretended to be relaxed: "Haha, Ajiu, how is my story made up?"
Ajiu looked at him with gentleness and pity, and she whispered: "Young Master, you have experienced so many unfortunate things when you were a child..."
Chu Zheng was very unaccustomed to such gazes. He regretted it a little. He must have been dizzy and actually mentioned these past events to Ajiu. He hurriedly said, "Everyone said it was made up, it was made up. I am the second young man from Chu Junwai, Chujiazhuang, Jicheng, Luzhou. I have been frugal since I was a child, and I have never suffered such hardships. Okay, I won't say it anymore. If I had known that you were so cried, I wouldn't tell you. It made me seem to be making up stories to deceive you into tears."
Ajiu didn't believe it at all, but he was still amused by him and laughed: "Young Master, why do you love to lie so much?"
"I am known as the 'Honest Young Master, the Benevolent Young Master'..."
Ajiu blinked his eyes: "But didn't you say before that others called you 'kind, kind-hearted, righteous, jade-faced little man'?"
Little girl, you have such a good memory and you will have no friends, I will tell you.
Chu Zheng was about to talk a few more nonsense when he suddenly stopped the voice.
Ajiu took out his handkerchief and wiped his tears. Seeing this, he said strangely: "Young Master, what's wrong?"
"Two horses are coming here. Well, there should be two people riding in front of you, and the other riding in the back is empty. Strange, there are still people rushing to go on such a stormy night?"
Ajiu asked curiously: "Young Master, how do you know?"
"Listen to the sound of hooves."
Ajiu was not aware of the harshness, and she listened intently, but she heard nothing except the sound of the north wind.
