" I..." Zhong Yan suddenly grabbed onto Gu Luolan's sleeve, her face pale.
The fear in his heart was naturally indescribable. She was afraid that others would abandon her and go alone. She was even more afraid of the feeling of being slowly eroded by loneliness and fear while waiting.
When there was silence all around, it was always when the most terrifying thing happened.
At that time, should he choose to go in and find that person, or should he wait for death to arrive??
He was just worried that the one and only person beside him would disappear at this moment and leave him alone to fight. This was a very terrifying thing. If there was someone beside him, he might still be able to muster up his courage. However, if there was no one around, he would probably collapse first without any other threats.
"Don't worry." Gu Luolan suddenly grabbed the cold hand that was tugging at his sleeve.
Her hands were stiff and cold from fear.
Gu Luolan's heart skipped a beat as she held this hand.
He had never been so close to a woman before. Even when his mother was still around, he was respectful and never touched her skin.
However, this woman was actually the little princess of Li Kingdom.
Princess Dong Yan…
He turned his head to look at the pale face.
Forget it, no matter what her identity was, she was just a little girl. Forget her identity, forget how experienced she was in handling things. She was just a little girl who wanted someone to accompany her.
"Shall we go over and take a look?"
As he spoke, his footsteps were already moving in and out, pulling Zhong Yan's staggering footsteps.
Although Zhong Yan was afraid, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow him in.
"Wait here, I'll go take a look."”
Instead of leaving her alone and saying that it was safe, it was better to let her continue to face danger.
That was what she had thought.
It was just like in modern times. Every time she had an injection, others would turn their faces away in fear, but she had to see the needle pierce into her skin with her own eyes before she was satisfied.
" Say…what was that thing that ran past just now? It looked like a child to me…" Zhong Yan trembled as he looked at the dark houses inside, each of them standing in the cold wind.
Gu Luolan was also suspicious. The figure just now was so fast, and it was relatively small. If there were no ghosts in the world, it should be a child!
But why were there children in this village but no one else?
The two of them trembled as they walked to the end of the village.
There was no longer a path ahead, and the sky had completely darkened.
"Why don't we rest here tonight?”Guloran sighed.
"Why don't you see my army?" Zhong Yan asked warily. They should have left much faster than us!”
Guloran looked ahead and slowly shook her head, indicating that she was not sure.
Could it be that Guloran brought me here?
Zhong Yan stole a glance at Gu Luolan.
If he did it on purpose, it would not be the best policy to expose him now.
She pretended not to know anything and followed him into the temple.
His cold palms were sweating.
The door creaked open…
Dust blew against his face.
He couldn't see anything clearly inside, but he could feel the coldness and killing intent in the hazy moonlight.
" Cough cough…" The two immediately covered their noses.
It was so dark inside that he couldn't see anything clearly. She mustered up her courage. She had been like this since she was young. Even if it was an injection, she had to see the needle pierce into her body with her own eyes before she could feel at ease. If she turned her head away, she would feel even more panicked.
Zhong Yan walked in first, followed by Gu Luolan.
She stood in front of the broken Buddha statue and looked at the spiderweb on it, but she did not pay her respects.
He didn't believe it, so why would he kneel down…For this kind of thing, it was better to believe it, and it was meaningless to not believe it, right?
Looking around, the entire hall could not be illuminated. Instead, the moonlight outside the open door lit up a little.
"Ah!"
Zhong Yan screamed and jumped to Guloran's side.
" What?" Gu Luolan was shocked." What?"”
"There's something!" Zhong Yan pointed to the other side." There's something moving there!”
Gu Luolan took out a lighter and lit it up immediately.
The warm light from the fire lit up the hall. At the same time, it also calmed the two of them down. The light brought people something far greater than itself.
However, the two of them looked around the hall in fear.
This place was packed with people!
All of them looked at the two neatly dressed people who were obviously different from them.
They were also panicking.
Looking at this, Zhong Yan suddenly calmed down."Are you…the villagers who suffered from the disaster?”
These people did not speak. Suddenly, the door of the hall was pushed open. A little boy in tattered clothes and a gray coat barged in. When he saw the two people standing in the middle, he was stunned.
"Are you the little boy at the village entrance today?" Chong Yan immediately asked.”
The boy hesitated and nodded.
He looked like he was only seven or eight years old.
His face was black, his eyes were big, and the tattered cotton on his clothes was already exposed. There were some places where there was no cotton, just a piece of cloth.
" We're not bad people," Gu Luolan said." This is our Dali Kingdom's Princess Dong Yan. The purpose of her visit this time is to help everyone through the winter.”
Everyone looked at Zhong Yan with puzzled eyes.
Zhong Yan was clean and clean. She looked like a little girl who didn't know anything.
Even the child laughed." Sister, why are you here alone to help us through the winter? Do you know how to burn firewood or cook?" Unfortunately, a clever housewife can't cook without rice. We don't have food.”
No one believed that Zhong Yan was a princess.
The princess in their minds should be following a large group of people and disdaining to look at commoners like them.
Zhong Yan was also helpless. Looking at his empty sleeves, he said,"Mister Gu and I got separated from the team. They said that they would meet me at the village along the Qianming River. Who knew that we still haven't seen anyone.”
The child smiled and said to everyone,"I found some dead fish from outside. It should be edible to roast them.”
When Zhong Yan heard this, her eyes widened. It was a dead thing, not to mention when it died. The fish was definitely not clean. How could it be eaten?
However, everyone seemed to be very happy.
The child ignored the two of them and picked up the firewood from outside.
Some of the people who were with him also helped to carry the firewood. Then, a few of them lit it with flint.
The room finally lit up.
Gu Luolan put out the lighter and brought Zhong Yan to sit near the fire.
As the child grilled the fish, he started talking to himself,"My name is Ah Mi. This village is Wa Village. Although it is quite a distance away from Qianming River, it is still affected. Those officials who had nothing to eat and could not plunder brought their troops and robbed us of our food. We could only hide in the temple and start a fire to keep warm.”
