Modern Couples' Life in Women's Society

Chapter 150 On The Road

Even though they set off at night, because of the snow, the night was no longer a real night, not as good as the day, but the road could be seen clearly, and Xiao Tong's night blindness didn't affect her anymore.If there is any difference between her and Prince Su's group, apart from physical horse riding skills, it should be that she can't use her hands well.The more powerful right hand was injured and couldn't use much force, and because he hadn't learned how to ride a horse, the number of times Xiao Tong was thrown off the horse along the way was several times that of others. Fortunately, the horse has been trained, and it won't mess up after the rider falls It will not be trampled by horses.

By the dawn of the next day, that is, at dawn on January 17, [-], Xiao Tong's clothes were already extremely dirty. Wearing thick clothes reduced the pain to a certain extent when he fell, and prevented his body from being covered in bruises. But the injured hand was not so lucky. The cloth bandage was already coagulated due to the oozing blood. What's worse, the blood would continue to flow continuously.

Prince Su's brows were already frowned. Looking at the embarrassment and glaring blood of her pampered daughter since she was a child, she was heartbroken, but seeing Xiao Tong's expression, she couldn't say anything to stop her from moving forward.On this kind of road, one person can only ride one person at a time, and he cannot take others with him, and because it is such an important moment, he cannot stop and rest, so he has been conflicted all night.

This contradiction has been contradictory, and finally became distressed, helpless and powerless.

In the early morning, a group of people stopped, got off their horses and shook off the snow that had piled up on their bodies again. After their own convenience, they ate some dry food, drank water, and changed horses routinely, and set off again in only a quarter of an hour.During this process, Xiao Tong only felt that he was numb. He rode the horse hard all night. When he got off the horse, he collapsed to the ground because of the weakness of his legs. , did not feel pain.

After trembling, it was time to eat dry food but I couldn't swallow it anyway, so I had to force myself to swallow it with water.After starting again, Xiao Tong looked at his injured right hand and sighed. If he had known this, he should have been careful not to get injured.

It was another non-stop ride on horseback, Xiao Tong was still being thrown off the horse and climbed up again, Prince Su frowned, and the people in the company were helpless and moved by her strength, helping her on the horse in turn back, to help her slap off the newly accumulated snow on her body, without slowing down at all.

At noon and night, repeat the morning procedure, the others remain unchanged, but Xiao Tong cannot remain unchanged, her movements become more sluggish.At night, you can rest for an extra hour before setting off, in order to recover your strength and sleep.The whole group, including Prince Su, fell asleep, but Xiao Tong didn't feel sleepy, his eyes were open in a daze, and bloodshot eyes gradually appeared in his eyes.

She just felt that she was getting older, getting older, from fifty to sixty, and becoming more and more inflexible, not only her body, but also her mind went blank, without the random thoughts of last night, only one thought, to arrive as soon as possible Maoling, find Mo Li!
The next day, on January 17, 60, everyone's complexions gradually became less rosy, and Xiao Tong's face under the mask only became paler.This day and night, she felt that she went from 65 years old to [-] years old, time slowed down, blood flow seemed to slow down, and the injured hand no longer bleeds, I don’t know if she is used to the pain, or because she was numb from the cold , Xiao Tong no longer felt the pain, and the number of times she was thrown gradually decreased, but after a while, she was carried off the horse to help her pat off the snow.

The snow doesn't stop, it doesn't stop.

On the third day, on January 17, 70, Xiao Tong's eyes were bloodshot, and she felt that she was [-] years old.

This night was approaching dawn, after three days and four nights of traveling, they finally arrived at Zaitong, Prince Su wanted to bring people to lead the army, she thought simply, Xiao Tong would definitely go together, but she never thought about it but was rejected.Because Xiao Tong knew that if the army set out, two-thirds of the people would walk, and the speed would definitely be slow. She couldn't wait and insisted on going first.

Seeing Xiao Tong like this, Prince Su could not take her to a remote place, and slowly persuaded her, but Xiao Tong was indifferent. Prince Su was so angry that he slapped Xiao Tong directly on the spot. She never paid attention to anger, her waywardness, Her current physical condition did not allow such behavior at all, but Xiao Tong was so stubborn.

Xiao Tong was knocked down by that slap, but she didn't feel any pain, because her whole body was made of wood, and her ears were buzzing. She wanted to get up and apologize, but she couldn't get up. She hated herself very much at this moment. annoying.Powerlessness, not only physical weakness, but also the powerlessness in her heart towards herself. How did she become like this? Now, she who is usually so calm has turned into the protagonist in an idol drama, so desperate, so unreasonable, so unreasonable. hysteria.

"I'm sorry, mother, I'm sorry!" Xiao Tong just lay on the ground and muttered, saying sorry to the second person in this world.

"This is the first time and the last time. I will never do this again, never again! Really never again!" Xiao Tong said to Prince Su and himself.

Really, never again!
"You said it yourself, don't let me down again." Prince Su's voice was stiff and trembling, and the hand that hit Xiao Tong was tightly clenched into a fist. It was the first time she hit Xiao Tong like that. With force, my heart hurts like being torn.The footsteps that took half a step stopped abruptly, trying hard to control himself not to pull Xiao Tong.

Hearing her apology and hearing her saying that it was the last time, Prince Su raised his head and closed his hot eyes, letting the snowflakes float on his face.After a while, she spoke.After speaking, he turned around and left abruptly, not looking at Xiao Tong on the ground.

After walking a few steps, I could faintly hear the subdued sobbing from behind, but I just kept moving forward.

After Prince Su left, Xiao Tong's tears finally poured out, he couldn't help sobbing, the guilt towards Prince Su reached the extreme in his heart, but in the end he still insisted on going first, praying in his heart that Mo Li was fine.

Prince Su ordered the two people who came with him to escort Xiao Tong to Maoling first. When the two arrived at the place where Xiao Tong was, Xiao Tong was still lying on the ground with a thick layer of snow on his body.

On January 17, 75, Xiao Yuan was still on the road, and she felt that she had reached the age of [-].

On this day, there began to be a man with seven horses behind Xiao Tong. It was Qi You. He followed not far or near, which attracted the attention of the two escorting soldiers, but he ignored her if he didn't make any next move, and Xiao Tong was unable to pay attention.

In the early morning of January 17, [-], Xiao Yuan was about to step out of the land of Erythrina, the snow stopped, and the sun finally showed up, Xiao Tong felt her heart come alive, she cheered up rarely, and looked up at the sun from time to time.When they reached the boundary of Maoling, the snow became less and less, and the speed of the group gradually accelerated. Xiao Tong only felt that the sun was so cute, and he could rush to Maoling soon.

There is a saying in the world called extreme joy begets sorrow. Shortly after stepping into the Maoling area, when the ground without snow could be seen, Xiao Tong’s eyes began to cry for no reason. His eyes felt filled with wind and sand, and the stinging pain was endless. It was itchy, Xiao Tong instinctively rubbed it, and then loosened his hands a little, and fell off the horse again without paying attention.

"Miss Xiao." The two soldiers got off their horses and helped Xiao Tong up. Xiao Tong wanted to open his eyes, but the pain was so severe that his tears kept flowing. The two soldiers were startled and asked what was wrong Xiao Tong hurriedly comforted the two of them, told himself to calm down, endured the pain and began to think hard, smiled wryly for a while, and she thought of snow blindness.

Looks like I've been blind for a few days.

He told them the symptoms of snow blindness and told them not to worry. He washed his eyes with the water he drank, and took out the cleanest handkerchief from his bosom to gently cover his eyes.Finally, one of the soldiers was asked to help hold the reins of the horse in front, and let her lead the way, while she only held on to the saddle hard to prevent herself from falling off.Fortunately, the snow has come out, so there is no need to worry about falling.

Qi You from behind frowned, he felt that something was wrong, and hurried forward, Xiao Tong could only hear the voice, but couldn't see anyone, so he hurriedly asked.Qi You took out the handwritten letter given by the empress dowager, and shook his head lightly to keep them from talking. Coincidentally, one of the soldiers had seen him in the palace and knew his identity.Seeing his request, he thought it was the emperor's wife who asked him to protect Xiao Tong. Although it was strange that he followed up alone, he complied.

Xiao Tong could only get the answer that a dumb businessman wanted to go on the road together, Xiao Tong didn't think much about it, and she didn't have the strength to say so much.

After Qiyou inquired about the situation clearly, Xiao Tong's expression became more and more complicated. Although Xiao Tong's actions were bad to a certain extent, but because of her affection and persistence, it was always good. It's not a disadvantage for him to travel this far!
Right now, I only hope that she and Mo Li can grow old forever.

After thinking about it, he took the rein from the soldier's hand and let him guide her.

After another day and night of rushing, Xiao Tong felt that he had reached the age of 85 all of a sudden.

As for Qiyou, in just a few days, his appearance didn't change at all, but his thoughts changed a lot.

In the early morning of January 17, [-]th year of Xiao Yuan, the group of them finally arrived at the town where Mo Li and the others were stationed.
