The husband is actually time-traveling!

Chapter 74 Get a spiritual (roast) beast (duck)
The little boy whose sleeve was pulled looked at his crying sister in embarrassment and tried to reason with her:
"No, don't cry. There's nothing you can do if you lose."

The little girl refused, shaking his sleeves and saying, "I don't care, I don't care. Brother, please help me get Xiaxia back."

Looking back, he saw Wan Yanjing coming over. Huo Xiang, whose head was full of tears from the little girl, suddenly lit up. He stood behind Wan Yanjing. His handsome head was completely exposed because he was tall, so he bent slightly. He bent his knees, rested his chin on Wanyanjing's shoulder, and smiled arrogantly at the little girl:

"Isn't it amazing to have a brother to support you? I also have people to support me. Madam, please help me beat them up. They want to steal my Xiaxia without paying."

Being so close, Wanyanjing smelled a faint fragrance coming from her body.

This smell was very special, and it didn't seem to come from some kind of spice, because their clothes were all washed and dried in the same wave, but he didn't feel that he had this smell.

As Huo Xiang spoke, he stroked the goose in his palm. The soft down warmed his palm, and a soft feather seemed to fall in his heart.

Wan Yanjing tilted her head and gave him a strange look, and then her eyes were attracted to the little white goose in his hand.

The gosling seemed to have just hatched, but it was surprisingly energetic and humane. It had a short red beak and two small eyes the size of mung beans, which were dark and shiny.

A cub as small as this has not yet gone through molting, and is mostly gray and yellow. However, this one is rare and pure white, and it is fluffy like a soft cloud when held in the hand.

As if noticing her gaze, the little goose jumped half a circle in Huo Xiang's hand, raised its little head and looked at Wan Yanjing, and gave her a cute "Xiaxia" twice.

Wanting Huo Xiang not to cause trouble, they were still on the road and quickly returned the goose. The words slipped between their lips and teeth, and then they were swallowed.

It happened that the little girl's family heard the cry and came looking for her, looking worried.

They were all tall men from the banker. They angrily drove the baby back home and confronted Wan Yanjing and the others.

A war was about to break out. Wanyanjing didn't want to cause trouble anymore, so she took out a piece of silver and bought the goose as compensation.

Boss Huo Xiang stood aside holding the little goose, watching her negotiate with the villagers.

When the situation calmed down, he lazily strolled over, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "As expected of you, my wife, I dispatched them easily. The villagers here are so fierce."

Wanyanjing ignored him and asked about the whereabouts of Lao Xu and Ergou.

"They went to inquire about the news from the villagers." After Huo Xiang finished speaking, he went over to ask for money from Wanyanjing with a smile, "Madam, where did you get the money? Do you have any left? When I went to Tianlao to accompany you, I I was searched, and I wasn’t allowed to take anything with me. I felt a little uncomfortable as my whole body was completely white.”

Wan Yanjing was not searched, but she did not have the habit of carrying money with her.

Lao Xu brought the money from the house. There were several money bags in the secret compartment of the carriage. When she got out of the car, she picked one up and put it in her arms.

But there is no need to tell Huo Xiang.

Instead, she stretched out her hand towards Huo Xiang, with her palm facing upward. There was a slightly scabbed scratch on the thenar side, and there were calluses in Bai Shengsheng's palm from daily knife practice.

Huo Xiang looked at her outstretched palm and was confused for a moment, but his mouth was faster than his brain. He frowned exaggeratedly and said heartbrokenly: "Madam, you are injured. Is it painful? I will ask Lao Xu later." I didn’t bring any ointment.”

Wanyanjing glanced at him and felt that there was something different between him now and before.

After being carried for dozens of miles by two dogs and begging for mercy without dignity in front of Tu Shanying, Huo Xiang completely let go. Something strange seemed to escape because he was not restrained by King Xuan's identity and body.

"The ribs that were broken by the old man have healed. Does my blood have the miraculous effect of curing all diseases? In this case, Axiang is willing to bleed for the lady to heal her wounds..."

Wan Yanjing sneered and interrupted him: "I asked you to give me the goose, which I bought with my money."

"..."

Huo Xiang put the goose in Wanyanjing's hand and watched the goose jumping in Wanyanjing's hand. He couldn't help but asked curiously: "Is this a goose? I thought it was a little white duck. Madam, what are you doing? How can you tell them apart?" Why is Wan Yanjing, who is also at the top of the ancient privileged class, so handsome and knows how to distinguish ducks and geese?

Wan Yanjing wanted to quarrel with him again, but she took a deep breath and held back.

Huo Xiang doesn't remember it now.

Xiao Goose started with it, and it felt as good as expected. The troubles caused by the dream seemed to be purified a little by this pure whiteness.

Huo Xiang's eyesight was sharp and he saw Wan Yanjing's pale face and lips. The smile in his eyes gradually faded: "Why are you feeling uncomfortable, madam?"

Wanyanjing didn't squint her eyes, thinking that I feel uncomfortable all over, and I get upset when I see you.

Maybe it was the physical discomfort caused by the dream that made her feel unhappy when she saw Huo Xiang. She tried her best to maintain the princess's demeanor and not speak harshly to him.

Soon Lao Xu and Er Gou came back.

Ergou indeed went to inquire about the news, and also purchased a more detailed map of the surrounding area.

Lao Xu was very interesting. He could count the treasures of any house in the village that had a beautiful widow in a short period of time.

There are still ten miles away from Luyang, and their destination is a mountain village more than ten miles to the west after passing Luyang.

The local village was xenophobic, so instead of staying in the villagers' homes, they decided to live in an abandoned temple not far from the village.

Wan Yanjing slept alone in the carriage at night, while Lao Xu, Er Gou and Huo Xiang made do on the straw mat in the temple.

Although the carriage was not big, it was still spacious for two or three people to sit and sleep in. Wanyanjing was alone in a room with bedding, so she had the best sleeping conditions among the four of them, but she couldn't sleep well.

She looked up at the intricately painted carriage roof, recalling the past few days, trying to tease out a main line from the details.

Maybe it was excessive thinking that caused her headaches. Wanyanjing couldn't think much about it, so she had to sit up and meditate for a while to get some relief.

It was about midnight, it was cloudy and moonless, and it was dark outside the car window.

Wanyanjing felt something strange.

She checked before going to bed. The window was facing the deserted temple. At this time, the shadowy fire in the deserted temple became fainter and fainter, until it suddenly went out, and the surrounding area instantly fell into darkness.

At the same time, there was a faint sound of wheels very close to her, as if another carriage was passing very close to her.

Wanyanjing was shocked. The surroundings were very quiet. The sound of insects and grass leaves disappeared at some point, leaving only the strange feeling of passing by in the silence.

"Snapped!"

Wan Yanjing pressed a switch somewhere on the carriage, and the complex patterns on the roof connected in an instant, giving off a faint golden light.

Wan Yanjing also looked through the transparent glass window and came face to face with a purple and decaying dead face pasted on the window.

　It feels good to stop updating every day, and it feels good to stop updating every day. I admit that I am a bit too presumptuous.

　　I was very relaxed after the exam, and no one urged me to take exams, which only encouraged my laziness.

　　This is so wrong, I reflect!
