Regardless of whether he was a boyfriend or a girlfriend, Xia Feng just wanted to stop and rest now, only the bagpipes were extremely dissatisfied with what to explain to the caravan members.

"Hey, I'm not his girlfriend, we're just normal friends."

These middle-aged caravan members looked like they had come over.

"Hehe, little girl, you just got along for a short time, it's okay, slowly get used to it."

"No, you misunderstood, it's really not that kind of relationship."

"Tut, my wife and I are in free love, and it was the same when the relationship was first confirmed, I'm embarrassed to say it in front of outsiders, I really miss the youth at that time."

"I ......."

Seeing that the explanation didn't make sense, the bagpipes kicked the summer breeze that was humming on the carriage and said angrily.

"Don't pretend to be dead, it's all your fault for talking nonsense and letting others misunderstand our relationship."

Xia Feng's face was pale, and he was powerless.

"Eldest sister, I'm not pretending to be dead, I'm really going to die, what do you care about what others say, justice is in the hearts of the people."

"No, you go and explain."

Xia Feng waved his hand.

"People's gossip is indelible, as long as the heart is determined, the more you explain, the more chaotic it becomes, once what you explain is not the answer they want, they will never wake up the person who pretends to be asleep."

The bagpipes were momentarily stunned by Xia Feng's crooked reasoning, but they still hummed and said dissatisfied.

"That's not okay, I'm not married yet, so it's so unclear that people misunderstand and damage my reputation."

Xia Feng was not happy anymore.

"You're still ruining your reputation? You are a yellow flower girl, we are also sunny and handsome, you don't seem to suffer. ”

"Cut."

The bagpipes didn't want to argue about it anymore, they just turned their heads away.

"Don't take it as an example, anyway, you are not allowed to make such jokes in the future."

"I'm not kidding, isn't that a slip of the tongue?"

"Not next time, anyway."

....

Xia Feng saw it.

Although bagpipes are very aggressive in the daily contact behavior of men and women, they are very principled in the relationship between men and women.

Very conservative, so to speak.

....

The caravan captain is a reasonable person, and in response to Xia Feng's request that "my girlfriend is tired", the whole team began to slow down and look for a place to rest.

In fact, it was not all to meet their requirements, the caravan had hardly rested along the way, each stop was a few minutes, two days and one night, and the convoy and horses were almost at the limit.

They were walking downhill at this time, and the sun had already set, because the night sky was clear, and the stars and the moon reflected each other.

The captain made a moment of distinction before shouting at the front of the line.

"After descending this low slope, we rested by the river for six hours and set off in the early hours of the morning before the sun outcropped."

"Good!"

It can be seen that the members of the caravan are very happy, although there are any complaints on the surface, everyone is actually tired for a long time.

....

The captain is the captain, and you don't need to look at the map to know that there is a river after going downhill, which is a living map.

After arriving at the river, more than ten carriages were parked compactly, and two people at the head and tail of the team were left on guard, and the rest of the people got off the car and began to light a fire by the river.

There were more than 20 people in the whole caravan, and it was quite lively when they were busy, some were responsible for cooking, some were responsible for replenishing water bottles, and some people began to lay straw mats.

In a few moments, the fire flickered, the smoke rose, and the hot gruel was cooked.

The team carried plenty of dry food, but because it was hard to swallow in the air, it was naturally better to go with gruel.

The captain looked at Xia Feng, who was slumped on the straw mat.

"Little brother, bring your girlfriend over for a bowl of porridge."

Xia Feng raised his head.

"No, we have our own food, not to mention that we only paid for the fare, not for the food."

The captain smiled kindly.

"It's okay, everyone takes care of each other when we go out, I cook a lot, come and drink a bowl."

The captain's invitation was very sincere, and Xia Feng was no longer polite.

After getting out of the car, he lay down on the smooth ground for a while, feeling better, and then took the bagpipes and the wind treasure and sat down by the fire.

....

"Whew~ It's so fragrant!"

In front of the fire, Xia Feng and the bagpipes were carrying a bowl of fragrant gruel, and even Feng Bao was divided into a small pot.

Although the porridge is very thin, this fragrant rice unique to the East Country is obviously very good, and if it is boiled into rice, it is estimated to be even more fragrant than the top-quality fragrant rice of the Royal Restaurant in Victoria.

"There's nothing good, little brother, you eat more, it's good if it's not enough for yourself."

"Thanks, then we're welcome."

"Heh, you're welcome." Fire extinguished

By the river, the sound of a large group of men drinking porridge was louder than the croaking of frogs, which sounded extremely strange.

But there is a simple laughter in it.

....

The scale of this caravan is not large, and the level of Dongzhou can only be regarded as a small and medium-sized caravan.

There were 26 people in the team, including 15 coachmen, who were responsible for driving and loading and unloading goods.

The remaining 10 people are "bodyguards", responsible for safety issues during transportation, as well as contact after arriving at a certain place, etc.

It's a hard job, it's dangerous, and it doesn't pay much, but it's a serious job.

The members of the caravan are basically middle-aged, and a man who runs with the caravan outside can't earn a lot of money, but it's enough to feed the family.

...

Sitting around the fire, everyone's laughter was sincere.

On the other hand, these middle-aged uncles are also very curious about young people like Xia Feng and bagpipes, and they can see that these two people are not ghosts.

A strong man with tied hair and a big beard laughed.

"Little brother, you're not from the East, are you?"

Xia Feng naturally has nothing to hide, just like an ordinary chat.

"We're from Victoria."

"Yo, Victoria, I think I've heard of it, it's a super country."

Obviously, even Victoria, a world-renowned power, is very mysterious to the people of the East, who are extremely closed off from their country.

Everyone who was drinking porridge sighed to varying degrees.

"I heard that Victoria is like spring all year round, and the roads are repaired in all directions, with a width of more than ten meters."

"I've also heard that there are people of almost all races in that country, and tens of millions of people are ruled by the king alone, which is really amazing."

"Hey, I've never left Dongguo in my life, and I've never heard of what you said."

Hearing everyone's gossip and sigh, Xia Feng corrected with a chuckle.

"It's not that exaggerated, Victoria's winters are cold, but the roads are well built, and the whole country is indeed ruled by the king, but not by one man, but by a well-established administrative system and the National Council."

Xia Feng's explanation sounded very professional, and even the relatively well-informed caravan captain was interested.

"Little brother, you know a lot, how is it, have you seen King Victoria?"

"Yes."

"What kind of person is it? That kind of superior person should be able to scare people to death with a single look. ”

The inquirer is unintentional, but it will tug at the listener's thoughts.

Xia Feng drank porridge, and the bagpipes next to him looked at him unconsciously.

....

For a long time, a knowing smile appeared on Xia Feng's face.

"In the past, she was just a little lion who was not good at hiding her emotions, but now she has grown into a qualified king."

For Xia Feng, at the founding ceremony of Luntinium that day, the last posture of Vina on the high platform of the royal palace was the last side of his memory.

In retrospect, he hadn't spoken to Vina since the sword that had severed the whole of Lentinium.

Even if it's a "goodbye".

....

Xia Feng's answer sounded a little foggy to outsiders, especially when he said that the king was a man who was not good at hiding his emotions, which was obviously very incompatible with his youth.

"Hey, little brother, listen to you, it seems that you are familiar with the king."

Exhaling heavily, Xia Feng's face was full of smiles.

"Yes, the king is a woman, and there was a time when she made me breakfast every day, and you said that she was not familiar with it."

The air fell silent.

Five seconds later, there was laughter from the fire by the river.

"Hahahahahaha, you're really good at bragging, hahaha!"

"Hahaha, this is called humor, I believed it just now, and it was a long time, it turned out that you were playing with us, hahaha, you really have you."

"Hahahaha

Xia Feng held the bowl and followed everyone to laugh as well.

"Hahaha, hahahahahahaha!"

His smile is casual, and his laughter is free, like the naughtiness revealed after the joke has been exposed, and a kind of self-deprecation.

...

Of the crowd, only one did not laugh.

The bagpipes quietly looked at the laughing Xia Feng, and in her opinion, the emotions mixed in the free and easy laughter of the summer breeze were things that would never be forgotten.

This man gave everything he had laid down with his own hands, sending the king of his mind to the apex of the empire.

In the light of light, darkness must disappear.

But even if each other's identities have changed drastically, there are some purest things he doesn't want to forget.

It's just that I won't mention it casually.
