Uncle Wu was born as a hunter and was good at all kinds of traps.
He told Bai Xian that if he was afraid at night, he would bury a trap outside, but he had to be careful.
Bai Xian is serious about learning from him.
After two days, no prey was found at night, indicating that the beast would not come near here.
But the movement of the mountains and forests, as well as the roar in the distance, still made Gu Chen afraid. She can't sleep at night or in the daytime. She's very listless.
Even if Bai Xian lives next to her.
"... can you sleep with me?" That night, Gu Chen asked him on his own initiative.
Bai Xian was stiff from head to foot.
He held his breath.
"I'm afraid." Gu said, "it's OK for us to have two quilts."
Her face was already red when she spoke.
That night, Bai Xian brought all his bedding.
After a simple wash, Gu Kun climbed into the bed first.
It's not a bed. It's just a layer of wood on the ground, covered with bamboo board, and then covered with thick thatch. It's no better than home.
After she slept well, Bai Xian came up.
He is well dressed.
There is still a sound at night. It may be that Gu Kun hasn't slept much these days and is in poor spirit. It may also be that the people around her make her safe. She is confused, but her heart is very quiet.
Her side is quiet, while Bai Xian's side is full of torrential waves.
His ear kept pounding, and his heart beat like a drum. The evil thoughts in my heart began to bubble again.
He imagined that he was twining his fingers and making a blind date with her.
His knees could touch her feet across each other's quilts.
He hesitated and tried to get his knees closer.
Gu did not respond.
Bai Xian leaned over and waited for a long time, but he couldn't calm down.
She heard him breathe lightly, and then she was asleep.
He can't sleep well.
When the day was about to dawn, he felt the movement of the people around him, and Gu Kun turned over several times.
Bai Xian asked her, "what's the matter?"
Gu Chen sat up and said, "I'm so thirsty."
Bai Xian hurried to pour water for her.
After drinking water, each other was sleepless. The night was coming to an end. They lay silently. They all felt that their breathing rhythm was not quite right, so they held their breath.
Then Gu Chen asked Bai Xian, "shall we... Spend time together?"
Bai Xian doesn't believe his ears much.
He didn't seem to understand this sentence: "what, what?"
"Let's..." Gu's voice trembled, "I can decide my own business. What about you? Do you want to..."
Bai Xian heard clearly this time.
He lifted his quilt and rolled over her.
Gu's breath was suddenly held.
His hand, gently stroking her hair, then her cheek
His palm was hot, and Gu's cheek was slightly cold. She shivered.
"Miss Gu, if I come here this time, I will not leave you even if I die." Bai Xian's voice was a little choked. "If you are willing to follow me, I can die for you."
His hand, still resting on her cheek, gently brushed her hair and ears, and then felt the moisture.
She cried.
Bai Xian was a little nervous: "Miss Gu..."
Gu's hoarse voice was almost inaudible: "when you left, I was seriously ill. If you mean it, i... i..."
Her voice was split, and great sorrow and joy rushed into her heart, which was about to block her throat.
She finally tried her best: "I will."
Bai Xian's lips fell down.
At the beginning, his strategy was very fierce. He tried his best to absorb her breath and linger with her. Slowly, he seemed calm, and the kiss became long and light.
He opened Gu's quilt and got into her bed.
Gu Chen thinks it's inappropriate.
But what's wrong with today's world? She closed her eyes slightly and waited for something.
Bai Xian just hugged her.
He seemed to have found a baby, kissing her hair and touching her cheek from time to time.
Occasionally, I would use force to clamp her firmly, as if I was afraid it was a dream.
It's getting brighter outside.
As the sun rose, the light in the small room became brighter.
Bai xiansong opened Gu Chen: "Miss Gu, I'll go down the mountain and buy something in the town. Aren't you afraid to be alone in the mountains during the day?"
"I'm not afraid. Go." Gu Chen said.
As soon as he left, he didn't come back until dusk.
The sun gradually shifted to the west, and the sunset shrouded the whole vision, which also brought a warm glow to Gu's side face.
The pine waves rise and the sunset melts gold. Gu is not in the mood to appreciate such a beautiful scenery.
She is worried about Bai Xian.
What's wrong with not coming back for so long? Was it found by the people in the village?
At this time, she heard footsteps. Bai Xian took a big burden and came back sweating.
All Gu's worries dissipated.
She stood up to meet him.
Seeing that his hair was wet with sweat, Gu said, "go in such a hurry?"
"Yes, I'm afraid you're worried." Bai Xian said, "Miss Gu, I'm sweating and go to the mountain stream in front to wash."
Gu said, "I'll cook, you go."
After that, she was busy in the main room.
She wants to see what Bai Xian bought.
Bai Xian washed it quickly.
During the meal, he wanted to say something several times, but he wanted to stop talking.
Gu did not speak.
After the two men finished eating silently, Bai Xian put down his chopsticks and said softly, "Miss Gu, what you said this morning... Did you go back on your words?"
Gu's face is also inexplicably hot.
How could she go back?
It was a secret in her heart, dark and deep. She had been seriously ill for it, but also because it was sweet.
Finally said, how can you pull it back?
"No." She said.
Bai Xian seemed relieved: "well... I don't want to wait. What rites do you need to get married? Let's make it up later. I want to worship heaven and earth with you and testify to God. If I lose you, I'll die."
Gu is a little flustered.
She's not ready yet.
But what do you have to prepare?
There were wars everywhere. Her mother and sister were thousands of miles away in Peiping and could not come back.
Bai Xian has no parents.
None of those people in the village is her close relative except the fourth uncle, and she doesn't need their consent.
"I believe you." Gu Chen whispered.
Bai Xian opened the baggage.
He came back so late because he made two sets of wedding clothes. He gave double money and stared at what the tailor was doing.
No matter how hard the tailor tries, he still needs to sew one needle. He can't finish it in three or five days. Finally, the tailor called out his wife and daughter and rushed to work together.
The work is not the best, but it's decent.
He also bought red candles, wedding characters and so on.
In addition, he bought Gu Kun Jewelry: gold bracelet, necklace, ring and a jade bracelet. This is his bride price. The girl's wedding needs these vulgar things.
"I have to prepare these in a hurry." He felt guilty. "Let's worship heaven and earth tonight, shall we?"
Gu Zhen gets a solid knot and realizes the mood of his bride - uneasy, but with a little vague expectation and joy. She nodded, "OK."
