Chapter 326: typical
Helping Yun Jinghong find an antidote is a responsibility, and Li Haitang must join in.
My husband always has a cold face. If there is a happy event in the tribe, he will attract attention wherever he goes, so I can't get involved.
It would be easier if she was there, and besides, she was a doctor by profession, so she could easily sneak into the back house.
Staying alone in the border town, suffering every night, might as well go with the barbarians.
"Husband, didn't you say you would take mine with you everywhere?"
Li Haitang touched her lower abdomen, it was flat and not yet raised, she was able to eat and drink recently, and there was no abnormal reaction, which made her almost forget that she was pregnant.
Xiaodoubao will be obedient, she is very confident.
"it is good."
His own wife stayed in the border town alone, and the border town was chaotic. Wufu and a new maid might not be reliable, and he was not at ease. If so, let's go together.
Liusu wanted to follow, but Yun Jinghong's situation was not stable, so she had to stay to prevent sudden changes.
The couple first went back to Chunniang's small courtyard to discuss it, and it was already nightfall.
They sent Wufu to look after the house, and the two rode together. Li Haitang sat in front, leaning against Xiao Lingchuan's chest, and his tall body protected him from the cold wind.
This time when going to the barbarians, the couple used the tunnels owned by the black market, so the safety factor would be much higher.
Because they didn't know if the barbarians had spies in the Daqi army, they rashly used the tunnels of the army in the north of the city, fearing that it would be counterproductive.
Riding quickly, the two arrived at the foot of the mountain not far from the city wall in the border town.
The night was silent, only the whistling wind could be heard, like ghosts crying and wolves howling. It was a kind of courage to live here.
Only one family was still lit with oil lamps, and the rest were completely dark. Li Haitang quickly found the location of the vegetable cellar according to the location given by Tassel.
There is a sliding door on the top, covered with straw, if it snows in winter, it is even more difficult to find this vegetable cellar. This kind of vegetable cellar at home is a tunnel, so it is very secretive, and most people can't find it.
Xiao Lingchuan went down to the cellar first, lit the fire pocket, and searched, but found no danger, and made a gesture to his wife, Li Haitang immediately understood, jumped, and fell into the warm embrace of the savage husband .
There is a small underground room below, which is filled with freshly harvested Chinese cabbage.
Behind the cabbage, there is a black hole as tall as a person, which is consistent with the description of Tassel, and the cold wind flows everywhere, indicating that this is a ventilated place.
"It's no wonder that the black market is so rich, it's not unreasonable."
There is a tunnel leading to the barbarians in the black market, and there must be a lot of transactions on weekdays to earn silver taels.
Especially now, during the war, the gates of the city were closed, and there were fewer and fewer barbarian furs and medicinal materials on the market.
"Husband, you said that there are so few authentic people, there is no way to drive cattle in, no wonder you can't eat beef."
To be critical, Li Haitang is still thinking about the food of the barbarians.
"It can be killed and cut into pieces for easy transportation."
However, this tunnel is too narrow and can only accommodate one person, even if you want to pass a cart.
Depending on the situation, this place has been abandoned for at least a long time, and the black market cannot have only one tunnel leading to the barbarians.
"I didn't expect that."
Li Haitang patted herself on the head. Now who said that she was pregnant for three years and was stupid, she didn't refute, her mind was full of the scene of people driving cattle out of the tunnel.
This ??? road is very long, with some twists and turns, and dirt scum will often fall from the top of the head. Li Haitang put on a hood and followed behind Xiao Lingchuan, keeping vigilance at all times.
In order to prevent accidents, she insisted on Xiao Lingchuan swallowing an antidote elixir before entering inside.
She gave two tassels, and she lied to her husband that she had eaten them, but she didn't eat them, and secretly hid them in her sleeve pockets.
In case of an accident, keep it for emergency.
The same is true for Xiao Lingchuan, who took the detoxification pill and made a fake action, the pill lay quietly in the small porcelain bottle.
The couple engage in petty tricks and deceive each other, but they are actually thinking of each other.
The tunnel was gloomy and filled with cold wind.
"?? This is too long, isn't it over yet?"
Going around and around, Li Haitang estimated the distance, and it should be near the city gate, so where is the exit? The wind in front is a bit strong, maybe it's near here.
"??According to the direction, it's not far away, lady, let's take a rest when we're tired?"
The two walked for more than an hour. In this narrow secret passage, only one person passed through. It was almost impossible to use lightness kung fu.
Restricted by the conditions, Li Haitang felt that the wind was blowing, and the torch in Xiao Lingchuan's hand was flickering and dimming, and it was about to go out.
"? You can hold on for a while."
There was no rest, and Li Haitang was very tired. She took out a handkerchief and touched her forehead, and ate a sesame ball to replenish her strength.
It's hard to stretch your arms and legs in such a cramped little place. The two walked for about a quarter of an hour, and finally reached the end.
Xiao Lingchuan pulled Li Haitang up from the tunnel, surrounded by barren mountains and wild ridges, and the distance was dark, it should be the long and steep river.
The weather was cold, the river was rolling, there was an iron chain bridge on it, no one was guarding it, and it was easy to cross. Li Haitang and Xiao Lingchuan searched around, trying to find another tunnel exit nearby.
"??? Well, crossing the river is the border of the barbarians."
A ??? round of cold moon hung in the sky, with countless twinkling stars, Li Haitang put one hand on his hips and beat himself on the back with the other.
There was a section of the tunnel that was very short, and she had to bend over to pass through it. Her savage husband was tall, so she almost had to bend over.
"???Yep."
Xiao???? Lingchuan nodded, looking at the gate of the barbarian city in the distance with deep eyes, he could not enter the city openly, but had to climb the city wall.
The two chose a dry place, sat down to rest, Xiao Lingchuan took off his cloak, and put it under his wife, in case she would catch cold, the two snuggled up and chatted.
"Husband, shall we go to the city tonight?"
Li Haitang sought Xiao Lingchuan's opinion, the two countries were at war, and there were barbarians' tents outside the city gate, they seemed to have learned that Yun Jinghong had been poisoned in the past two days, so they died down.
Now that the river is not frozen, it is not a good time to start a war. The barbarians crossed the border. If the soldiers of Daqi get angry, the barbarians will have no way out and can only be buried in the long river.
"??? No, let's go back and come back tomorrow."
It was already late at night, there was no shelter outside the pass, and the cold wind was blowing. Xiao Lingchuan helped Li Haitang warm her hands, but her hands were still cold after a quarter of an hour. He opened his lapel and put her hands inside.
His chest was warm, Li Haitang felt the warmth, and her hands began to fumble left and right dishonestly.
Xiao Lingchuan's face was stiff, and he felt that his body was getting hotter. He grabbed Li Haitang's little hand and said hoarsely, "My lady, don't touch it..." Li Haitang blinked and quickly withdrew his hand. Before withdrawing her hand, she touched her savage husband again, the muscles on her chest were hardened, she couldn't help it.
