Chapter 23 What is the difference between kicking people out of the warm quilt and robbing houses?
This large caravan has a habit.

If there is one person in the tent, let down one side curtain; if there are two people, put down two;Otherwise, in the dark at night, a large caravan of hundreds of people, one tent after another, is looking for an empty bed, and it is estimated that they will not be able to sleep until midnight.

Xu Baiyan was lucky, and soon found an empty tent. He walked over, but instead of sleeping directly, he sat in front of the tent and looked at the sky.

I slept too much during the day, and didn't feel sleepy at night. The sky without industrial pollution was full of stars like falling silver, surrounded by black and white moons. After watching for a while, I felt that my body and mind became ethereal and bright.

There are two moons in this world. One of them is the white moon. Like the world before crossing, it reflects the sun's light at night, and changes with the seasons.

And beside the white moon, there is a black moon.

Xu Baiyan didn't know what it was, it looked like a black spot beside the moon, usually faintly visible, only when passing through the center of the full moon, with the bright white moonlight, would people notice it.

The black moon has existed in the night sky for tens of millions of years, and people in this world have long been accustomed to the existence of the black moon, so they feel that this is a very normal sight. The black moon has turned a blind eye. After all, it has no influence on the world except for the occasional black spot on the moon.

In the calm night, there was not even the sound of insects. Xu Baiyan looked up at the sky for a while, and felt a little pain in his neck, so he turned around and went back into the tent, lowered the curtain on one side, and was ready to sleep.

Get into the bed, close your eyes, and there is no light around, people will follow their instincts to fall asleep.

The same is true for Xu Baiyan, even if he is not sleepy, he gradually feels sleepy.

I don't know how many hours have passed since I fell asleep.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes sharply!

There was no light around, so Xu Baiyan's eyes adapted to the darkness directly.

In the darkness, he clearly saw a thin silhouette standing not far in front of him, looking at him quietly.

I don't know when this person came or how long he has been standing here.

Xu Baiyan was a little surprised, because no matter what he said, he was the one who had carried several nests of horse thieves at the mouth of Yuxia, and his awareness of the surrounding sounds was not weak.But this person approached him quietly like this, and he stood there for so long, yet he didn't realize it until now.

"Are you...?" He asked tentatively.

The figure in front of him didn't respond.

"What's the matter with you?" he asked again.

But the person in front of him remained silent, like a dummy.

Xu Baiyan frowned, the atmosphere was too weird, so he got up and walked to the door, stretched out his hand and opened the curtain of the tent to let the moonlight shine in.

Immediately afterwards, he finally saw the other party's appearance clearly.Can't help being even more surprised.

Because the one standing in front of the bed turned out to be a woman. No, it should be a girl.

It seems that he is younger than himself, about fifteen or sixteen years old, not tall, and the clothes are beautiful, and the material is not cheap at first glance.The hair on the head was beautifully rolled up into two buns, tied with a light blue ribbon, which looked very cute.If such a little girl is placed in someone's home in Yucheng, the matchmaker who talks about the marriage will probably be overwhelmed.

However, such a cute girl made Xu Baiyan feel a little weird.

Is it because it's too quiet?So quiet that within three steps of walking into him, he couldn't make himself alert.

Or is it because those eyes are too dull?Like a body without a soul.

"Little girl" Xu Baiyan hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Did you get lost and couldn't find your tent?"

"." The girl in front of her remained silent.

"Then what's your name?" Xu Baiyan asked again.

The girl remained silent.

Xu Baiyan scratched his head in distress: "You don't say anything, just stand here, it's hard for me, what about your adults? I'll take you to find them."

There was still no response to his words.

But in the next second, Xu Baiyan was dumbfounded when the little girl suddenly lifted her quilt, then got in directly, covered her body with the quilt, and closed her eyes.

Xu Baiyan was stunned. He stood at the entrance of the tent, looking at the girl who occupied his bed without saying a word, and suddenly:

"Hey, little girl, what are you doing?"

"." The girl didn't make a sound

"You don't want to sleep here, do you?"

"." The girl remained motionless.

"But this is my bed?"

"."

"Here... at least you can talk to me and tell me why you want to sleep here all of a sudden?"

"Okay, but even if you want to sleep here, don't you just sleep in this suit?"

"Uh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ask you to take off your clothes, but can you really sleep like this? Besides, you sleep here, where should I sleep?"

Xu Baiyan was confused by this little girl's inexplicable intrusion and didn't know what to do.

After all, she is a woman and she is a man.

She didn't take off her clothes, and she could sleep in another bed by herself, but this scene should be regarded as a lonely man and a widow sharing a room.

Xu Baiyan scratched his head and yelled a few more words. In order to make the other party pay attention to him, he deliberately increased his tone to make himself look more aggressive. He even summoned up his courage and pushed the girl on the bed a few times.

However, the other party still did not respond.

Not only that, but she actually made a soft sound while lying down.

"Falling asleep.??" Xu Baiyan was even more shocked now, not just shocked, he felt a sense of being molested by the other party for no reason.

I am a dignified person who scares horse thieves in the frontier, and forces the horse thieves to be like nomads. The Daqin frontier soldiers who change their nests every two months, let a little girl snatch the bed without saying a word?
No matter how good-tempered a person is, he must be a little angry.

This is not to say that Xu Baiyan doesn't want to help the little girl, but that the other party is really unreasonable, kicking people out of the warm quilt, how is this different from beating a house?
So he was a little angry, staring at the thin figure with extreme displeasure, then walked to the empty bed on the other side of the tent, and stretched out the cold quilt.

"I obviously came here first to this tent, but you insisted on coming in without saying a word, and even occupied my bed! I can't just go out and endure the cold all night because of your unreasonableness, right? It's unreasonable." ..."

While muttering resentfully, he spread the quilt and got in.

The bed that had been frozen for most of the night was very cold, and Xu Baiyan shivered as soon as he entered.

"I will find your adults tomorrow, and I must let them educate you! You are so unreasonable at such a young age, how can you marry when you grow up?"

He tried his best to dispel the chill in the bed, looking for the sleepy bug that had flown to nowhere. Under the night, the bonfire had been extinguished, and there were still no insects around.
