Chapter 49

The plains stretched as far as the eye could see. The silver moon cast an orderly shadow on the ground.

After many days of battle, the Xiliang infantry reeked of blood. Just as they were about to break through, they were suddenly ordered to retreat by the imperial court. This was not good news for professional soldiers who relied on their military exploits to go home and spend time with their wives and children. However, the Xiliang Army obeyed orders and no one complained. They just followed the two generals, Yang Zunyi and Tu Qianchu, as they marched in silence.

At the front of the army was a group of white wind-chasing horses. They maintained a distance of more than a mile and advanced slowly towards Nanyang. The infantry marched very slowly. The wind-chasing horses could only be considered to be strolling. They had to stop after a while.

Ning Qingye, who was dressed in light armor, took off his helmet and hung it on the side of his horse. His fine black hair fluttered gently in the night wind. The tall horse, coupled with his tall and slender figure, under the silver moon and the vast plain, created an extraordinarily beautiful scene. If Xu Danqing was here, she would probably feel that the painting by the seaside was drawn too early for Ning Qingye.

Just like the last time when she sat alone on a tree by the sea and looked at the sea, Ning Qing Ye looked at the endless plains. She was thinking about the same person, and she was also at a loss.

Ning Qing Ye tried to think about where she should go in the future. However, since she grew up in the mountains, the only person by her side was her master. She had never thought of separating from her master, but she could not accept the current change. She was at a loss.

Alone and on a horse, she did not travel far when she heard the sound of wings flapping above her head.

Ning Qing Ye looked up. The little sparrow swayed down and landed directly on the head of the white wind-chasing horse. Then, it lay down. It was obviously woken up in the middle of the night and flew so far to find someone. It was very tired.

Ning Qing Ye looked at it and took out a waterskin. She poured some water into her palm and stretched out her hand.

The little sparrow flapped its little wings and jumped onto Ning Qing Ye's wrist. It nodded and pecked at the water.

"Why are you here? Did Master send you? "

"Chirp chirp — —"

The little sparrow drank two mouthfuls of water and turned around. It raised its head and chirped seriously.

Ning Qing Ye did not understand bird language and did not have much contact with the little sparrow. She shook her head and smiled. Then, she put the little sparrow on her shoulder and continued walking towards Nanyang.

The little sparrow was very smart. It sensed Ning Qing Ye's mood and became similar to Chu Chu's when she fell out of love. It chirped a few more times and rubbed its head against her neck.

Ning Qing Ye said nothing. It felt a bit itchy after being rubbed against the sparrow., and rubbed its head against the sparrow's neck. Ning Qing Qing Ning Qing Ye's.

A man and a bird continued to move forward aimlessly. With some comfort, Ning Qingye didn't think about those troublesome things anymore.

However, she were not feeling... while, she was the sound. she could. of. of. away. as of the thought.

The the the the on.

The sound of the horse's hooves was clear and familiar in the night.

Ning Qing Ye's body stiffened. She did not look back. She instinctively squeezed the horse's belly and wanted to run away. But after a few steps, she came back to her senses. She slowed down and continued to walk at a steady pace.

The little sparrow turned around on her shoulder and looked at the plain behind her.

The black Wind-chasing Horse galloped across the plain with a sword and a spear hanging on its side. Xu Buling had changed into a black robe and a cloak. His face could not be seen clearly in the dark. He went around the side of the team.

Soon, Xu Buling came to Qing Ye's side. He pulled the reins and walked side by side with her.

"Qing Ye, why did you leave so suddenly?"

He still had that bright smile on his face, handsome without losing his heroic spirit, and with a hint of tranquility that was out of this world.

However, Ning Qingye had just seen Xu Buring's bestial nature go wild on her gentle and considerate Master. How could she be touched by this amiable face? She just looked ahead and said calmly, "Master, you're a good person.

"I miss you. I'll go back and stay for a while. You don't have to see me off. I'm not a child. I know the way."

Xu Buling moved closer. He held the reins of Qing Ye's horse and sped up.

"I want to go back too. Let's go together."

Ning Qing Ye heard this. She narrowed her eyes and was about to pull the reins of the horse.

"Forget it. I'm not going back. Chu Chu is bored staying in the barracks. You go back alone."

？？

Xu Buling was a little confused. Even if he was a blockhead, he could understand that Qing Ye was avoiding him. He looked at Qing Ye. After thinking for a while, he suddenly flew up and sat behind Ning Qing Ye.

"Qing Ye, what's wrong?"

Ning Qing Ye's body suddenly stiffened. She pushed him with her shoulder.

"You go down."

Xu Buling naturally refused to go down. He put his arms around Qing Ye's waist. Although she was wearing armor, he felt like he was hugging an iron lump. But he still hugged her very gently. He smiled and said,

"Why are you suddenly angry? Did I do something wrong? "

Ning Qing Ye's breathing gradually quickened. She held the reins tightly and pushed him with her shoulder. But she failed to push Xu Buling away. Instead, she squeezed her own tears.

Ning Qing Ye's eyes were red. She tried to hold back for a long time. But she still couldn't hold back her tears.

"Go away!"

Her voice was a little hoarse. No one knew how much grievance and anger were hidden in it.

The little sparrow trembled in fear. She hurriedly jumped onto the head of the Big Black Horse. The Big Black Horse also turned its head, as if wondering why the two masters were quarreling.

Xu Buling's smile froze. When he returned to the military tent, he heard Nightingale mention that Ning Qing Ye borrowed the telescope to look at the stars. He didn't take it to heart at that time. Now that he thought about it, he might have seen something …

"Uh …"

Xu Buling was still holding Qing Ye's waist. He smiled embarrassedly and said, "Don't be angry. Let me explain …"

"Explain what?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, he could no longer suppress the emotions that he had been suppressing for many days. They rushed to his mind, almost making him hysterical.

Ning Qing Ye turned her head. Tears flowed from her eyes, but her eyes were still cold and sharp.

"What do you have to explain? You are a bastard, a pervert! How could you do this? How could you do this? "

"I …"

"She is my master!"

Ning Qing Ye couldn't suppress it anymore. She jumped off the horse angrily and threw the snow-white sword at Xu Buling.

"She is my master! You kissed me. You said you liked me. You know I like you!

For you, I don't want to take revenge. I don't want to do anything. I just follow you around aimlessly. I follow you wherever you go. I do whatever you ask me to do …

… You think I like your Prince's Mansion? You think I haven't been on a ship? Or do I crave this kind of luxurious life? I like you, so I follow you! "

Ning Qing Ye shouted herself hoarse. Her shoulders couldn't stop trembling. She wanted to hold back her tears, but her eyes showed uncontrollable sorrow.

Xu Buling caught the long sword and got off the horse. He smiled and said, "I know …"

Ning Qing Ye took two steps back. Her eyes were red. "Since you know, why are you still like this? You can stay away from me. I don't like you in the beginning. As long as you don't pester me, I won't like you. Since you like my master, why don't you let me go … "

Xu Buling stepped forward slowly. "I really like you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have kissed you …"

"You call this like?"

Ning Qing Ye pushed Xu Buling hard. There was anger and sadness in her eyes.

"You are a pervert! You are just a pervert. Why do you say you like me? If you care about me, you won't do this kind of thing! You and my master are like that. Now you come and tell me you like me? What do you think I am? You … "

Xu Buling looked embarrassed. "No, it's my master who forced me. I can't do anything about it."

"You … Huh?"

Ning Qing Ye's cheeks were full of tears. She couldn't see clearly. She was on the verge of breaking down. But when she heard this, she was stunned and then angry.

"Nonsense! You … "

Xu Buling walked up to her. He raised his hands and hugged Qing Ye tightly. He said softly,

"Really, I'm not lying. I really like you. I didn't know Yu He was your master at first. I saved her once in Chang 'an City, and then I took her as my master. Later, my master fell in love with me for some reason. Then, in the Cao family of Mount Jun, my master rowed a boat to pick me up. When we were on the boat, she pressed me down … I really refused to resist at that time … "

Ning Qing Ye was almost hysterical. She couldn't even maintain the firm expression on her face. She twisted her shoulders and struggled crazily.

"Let me go! You are talking nonsense. My master couldn't have … "

Xu Buling gently stroked the hair on Qing Ye's back and said seriously,

"I swear to God, it was my master who did it. I couldn't stop her. If I lie, I will never get it up again."

Ning Qing Ye struggled a few times. But she couldn't get out of his arms. She could only look up and glare at him.

"You are so good at martial arts. How could my master force herself on you? You are a liar who only knows how to talk. You are still looking for such lame reasons. Let me go! "

"No matter how good I am, I can't hit my master, right? There is no place to run on the boat. My master threw herself on me as soon as she took off her clothes. I … Alas … "

Xu Buling looked at her calmly and sighed slightly.

Ning Qing Ye was not good with words. She was very slow when it came to feelings. She was so emotional that her mind was in a mess. She couldn't think at all. After a few questions, she ran out of words. She stared at Xu Buling. After a while, she said angrily,

"Do you like my master?"

Xu Buling nodded seriously. "Of course I do."

Ning Qing Ye's eyes suddenly sharpened. "Since you like my master, why did you still …"

"Because I kissed you first. Then I saved my master. I saw my master's body without knowing it. I am a man, so I have to be responsible for it, right? "

"You are lascivious."

"Yes, I am lascivious. But it doesn't stop me from liking you two …"

"Bah …"

Ning Qing Ye couldn't go on. She didn't want to talk about such a messy thing. She squeezed out of Xu Buling's arms, turned over and got on the horse. Then she ran to the plain.

Xu Buling also got on the horse and followed beside her. "Qing Ye …"

Ning Qing Ye wiped her tears with her sleeves and galloped on the horse. "Shut up!"

"Alas …"

Xu Buling opened his mouth. He had to keep a distance and let Qing Ye calm down first.
