The sky darkened and sand flew everywhere. It was like night. After the raging storm of sand, the haze gradually dissipated and the light became brighter by the second.
Shi Yingying climbed up from the ground with much difficulty, shook the sand on her head and looked around anxiously, "Du Changfeng, where are you?! Du Changfeng, where are you?!"
She screamed for a long time, but there was no response. The only sound that could be heard was the sound of the wind blowing, as if someone was wailing in grief.
When the tens of thousands of golden beams of light shot down, the distant sand dune rose and fell like waves. The surroundings were quiet and peaceful, as if the nightmare scene from before was just an illusion.
But as for Du Changfeng, they had clearly come together, why was she the only one left?
She held onto her skirt, one foot high and the other low in the sand, while looking around in panic: "Du Changfeng, please answer me, Du Changfeng, where are you … …" If she still couldn't find him, she would really cry.
She regretted that when she left, her father had sent a maidservant for her to wait upon her on the way. She didn't want any of them, and even complained that her father wasn't sensible. But now, how she wished that those people were all here to help her look for Du Changfeng.
Du Changfeng hid behind the sand dune, expressionlessly looking at the figure that stumbled under the blazing sun. If she thought he was dead, would everyone be relieved?
They walked west along the official road, stopping at a relay station. The journey was quite smooth, but today, she had heard from a servant at the relay station about the desert outside the town, and as a result, she was very curious and wanted to pull him over to take a look.
The first time they saw the vast and magnificent desert, they were shocked. They stayed here for a long time, but they encountered a sandstorm.
To be honest, he did not want Shi Yingying to follow him to the northwest, he knew that Shi Shengcheng would do everything he could to keep his daughter, but the shameless Prince Chu actually made the biggest inn in the northwest to tempt the Shi father and daughter and gave them a grand and magnificent picture. In the end, Shi Shengcheng immediately changed his mind and agreed to follow Shi Yingying over.
Along the way, he firmly decided to stay away from Shi Yingying. However, it was the opposite for Shi Yingying. Let's make a decision here.
In his line of sight, the staggering figure fell, then quickly got up, spat a few grains of sand on the ground, and began looking around for him.
Du Changfeng hardened his heart and did not reply. All of his tenderness would only be given to one person, he had no feelings for other women, let alone the valiant Great Miss Shi.
The sunlight was bright, he hid in the shadows behind the sand dunes, it was still extremely hot, the clothes on his back were all drenched with sweat, and looking at Shi Yingying, she seemed to be extremely panicked, she had been walking in circles, her hair was messy, her face was red, and beads of sweat were rolling down her forehead. She was constantly walking, her face filled with anxiety, her eyes filled with tears, but she did not cry.
He looked at it and his heart finally couldn't bear it anymore. Just as he was about to reply, Shi Yingying's body swayed and fell down once more, but this time, she didn't get up. Instead, she laid motionlessly in the midst of the yellow sand.
Du Changfeng was shocked, he immediately ran over to check on her, "Ying Ying, how are you, wake up, wake up Shi Yingying, wake up … …"
Du Changfeng panicked for a moment and quickly calmed down. He knew that she had suffered from heatstroke and quickly took off the water bottle on her waist, lifted her head and poured some water for her to drink.
Shi Yingying didn't feel anything as the water kept flowing out. He had to wake her up and take her away, or else he would probably fall down. In a moment of desperation, he took a mouthful of water and sent it into Shi Yingying's mouth. She clenched her teeth, still unable to feed it, and he pried it open with his tongue, finally pouring the first drop of water into it. When she was about to leave, he accidentally touched her tongue. It was unbelievably soft. He jumped in fright as she stared at her with a bewildered expression. A suspicious red cloud rose up on his face.
However, he quickly extinguished that little bit of gossip that he shouldn't have and fed himself two more mouthfuls of water.
When Shi Yingying slowly woke up, seeing that Du Changfeng had just left her lips, her heart was immediately overjoyed. He grabbed onto Du Changfeng's clothes, pulled him down, and pouted as he went forward to welcome him.
Du Changfeng was shocked when she woke up. He quickly pushed her away, "What are you doing?"
Shi Yingying boldly and confidently said, "You can kiss me, but can't I kiss you?"
"Which one of your eyes saw me kissing you," Du Changfeng said in a flustered and exasperated tone, "You've suffered from heatstroke and can't feed me any water? I was just doing it out of helplessness, can you not turn black and white?"
So that's how it is, Shi Yingying didn't feel awkward at all, she crawled up from the ground, patted the sand off of her body, and smilingly looked at him: "Are you worried about me?" Without waiting for Du Changfeng's reply, she patted his shoulder: "A man that loves his wife, I didn't marry the wrong person."
Du Changfeng, "..."
Shi Yingying walked a few steps, then turned her head and called out to him: "Why are you standing there like a fool, leave quickly, if you get sunstroke, I'll have to feed you water again."
Du Changfeng shuddered and quickly followed suit.
"Du Changfeng," Shi Yingying suddenly stopped and said seriously, "Thank you. I didn't leave you behind."
Du Changfeng felt a little uncomfortable. Honestly speaking, that thought did indeed exist, if she had not suffered from sunstroke, he might not have come out.
"Don't worry. From today onwards, no matter what happens, I won't leave you behind." She said this very solemnly.
Du Changfeng, "..." I would be grateful if you would leave me.
The two of them returned to the inn. Seeing their sorry appearances, the young man jumped in fright, "Why is it like this? Did you encounter a sandstorm?"
"Yes, I did," Shi Yingying laughed heartily, and did not feel any fear at all. She then pointed at Du Changfeng, "Luckily my husband was brave enough to save me, otherwise my little life would have been lost in the desert."
The two of you can be considered to be on good terms with each other, but there are also husband and wife who flew away when faced with a great calamity. We have merchants here throughout the year, and only one of them has ever returned, but the sandstorm here isn't that bad. The sandstorm here isn't really that bad, after going through it, we can bring the person back, but the original people have never seen or dared to flee, they only know how to leave their wives in the desert, some have their mouths sealed by the sandstorm, some have gone missing.
Shi Yingying laughed: "My husband isn't that kind of person, he loves me dearly."
Du Changfeng, "Cough, cough, cough …" "Give me one catty of beef and two catties of aged white jerky." Let's just let him get drunk …
