Chapter 11

"Please, don't always ask this question, okay? I'll say it again, I will never regret it. It's impossible to let me die and refuse to save you." Tiao Chen gave me helplessly, gasping for breath, and his pace accelerated a little.

"Huh? Look there, there is a thatched hut over there. Let's go over and take a look first." I turned my head and suddenly saw a wisp of blue smoke coming out about ten meters ahead.

"Yeah." Tiaochen responded softly, and his hand holding me shivered slightly. He probably had walked for too long and could not support him.

"Put me down, I can leave." Seeing his difficult appearance, I couldn't bear it and struggled to get off.

"Don't move, you want to exhaust me?! It's coming soon!" Tiaochen cursed at me, looking angry.

It was indeed a somewhat shabby thatched hut, with dry thatched huts plastered on the roof, like a rural toilet. Tichen slowly put me down, gently supported me, and opened the door. He saw a rough man in his thirties sitting at the table drinking. When he saw us, he was shocked.

"Who are you?" The black man like charcoal suddenly put down his big bowl and looked at us with caution.

"Don't worry, we are not bad guys, but we are lost in the woods. We see it's too late and want to stay here for a night. Is it okay?" Tiao Chen said politely, while looking at the small house with the corners of his eyes.

A bent bow hangs on a small pillar under the roof, several beast skins are sloppy on the bed, and a pile of firewood is placed in a mess on the ground, which is simply a standard hunter's residence.

The rough man looked us up and down with his two small eyes, and there was no expression on his black face. Finally, he slowly said: "If you want to stay, you must help me with work. Also, pay fifty taels of silver first, otherwise there will be no way." After that, he picked up the bowl and poured a large bowl of wine.

"What? Fifty taels?" I looked at him dumbfoundedly. This man was too good at raising prices. Just this broken house, the cost of five taels was considered expensive, and he was simply extortion!

"What? I'll go out if I think it's expensive. I'm too lazy to entertain you!" The rough man's eyes made people feel very vulgar when they see it.

"You! OK, I'll ask you, you're just a room, we're fifty taels of silver, how dare you ask where to sleep?" I glanced at Tiaochen beside me, and half-closed my eyes, making it impossible for people to figure out what he was thinking.

"Sleep there." The thick man raised Erlang and stepped back, pointed to a pile of hay next to him, and said disdainfully.

I looked in the direction of his finger. A messy yellow hay pile was on the corner. The sloppy scene made me frown and said unhappily: "What? I can buy such a rotten hay pile of you for fifty taels of silver?"

"It's more than that. If you don't want to freeze to death, you can pay ten taels of silver for a night." The rough man looked at me lazily and said with confidence.

"You! Are you deliberately extorting?!" I glanced at the pile of foreign objects that looked like quilts and not quilts beside him. It was actually just a pile of broken cotton wool.

"Okay! Girl, go out. If you don't get rid of the wind, you will be taken away by the jackal." The thick man Gulugued two sips of water, staring at me with a pair of thief eyes.

"You..." I was about to curse, but I was taken first by Tichen. A low voice slowly rang out: "Okay, we will give you a hundred taels of silver, and you can arrange food and accommodation for us."

"Hey, are you crazy? You actually answered him, one hundred taels! How many nights do you have to stay in a good guest room?!" As I said, I glared at the rough man angrily.

"Okay, don't be as familiar with such villains." Tichen patted my shoulder and helped me sit down next to the bench opposite the rough man.

"What are you looking at?" I glared at the rough man. How could this barbarian look at him and dislike him?

"Haha..." The rough man laughed as if no one was around, and a dirty lust flashed through his eyes.

I turned my eyes elsewhere, grabbed Tiaochen's sleeve with one hand, and sat fucked uneasy. The pain from my stomach made me frown.

"What's wrong?" Tiaochen carefully found something wrong with me, and asked anxiously.

"It's probably because I didn't eat anything and I had stomachache." I climbed on Tichen's arm tightly, and my face looked ugly.

Tichen hurriedly wiped away the small sweat beads from my forehead with his sleeves, and said to the thick man in a deep voice: "Come on a basin of water quickly."

"What? I've given you this nail of gold. Go." Seeing that the rough man didn't take action, Tiaochen quickly pulled out a nail of gold from me and put it on the table, shouting sternly.

"Are you crazy? This is gold!" I stared at Tiao Chen with wide eyes, very dissatisfied.

"I know it's gold, but you're like this, do you still care about the money?!" Tiaochen sighed helplessly, and his handsome eyes looked at me with a funny look, as if he was ridiculing me for being stupid.

"But, I'm not willing to give up!" I looked out the door, not knowing what the barbarian was doing. I've been in for a long time and haven't come in yet.

"Forget it, don't bother with such people. You girl is really rare in the world. Anyway, the most you have is money, and you are still so stingy!" Tichen rubbed my hair and smiled, with a hint of doting in his eyes.

"Hey, why did you come in so late? You didn't give me any medicine, right?" I raised my eyebrows and cursed in anger.

"Girl, I want to add medicine, and you can't help it. Whether you drink it or not." The rough man put a big bowl in front of me, and his strength was so strong that the water inside suddenly spilled out.

"Okay, drink it." Tiaochen gently picked up the big bowl, put it to my mouth, and advised with kind words.

I gave the rough man a blank look. The guy was looking at me in a daze. The flesh on his face gathered together, and a small lump was raised.

"Is there any better now?" Tiaochen wiped the water beside my mouth and asked with concern. The gentler his eyes were, and even made me suspect that he was acting.

"Okay, I want to sleep." In such a ghost place, I can't stay there for a moment, especially when I have to face a disgusting person.

As soon as I finished speaking, Tiaochen gave a wink at the rough man. The guy lazily pulled a piece of broken cotton wool and threw it on the haystack.

"By the way, where are you sleeping?" Seeing that the rough man had come back, I whispered to Tiaochen, glanced at the corner of my eyes, and there was really no space left.

"Yeah... sleep on the stool." Tiaochen pointed to the two long benches with grievance, but his tone was a little helpless.

"Ah? Or, you sleep with me! We are all modern people anyway..." I glanced at the rough man, feeling a little scared, and couldn't help but whisper.

"Haha... aren't you afraid?" Tiaochen approached me a little, and hugged with a slight hint.

"I'm more afraid of him than you." I pushed Tichen, lowered my voice, and glanced at the rough man with concern.

"Okay, baby, go to bed." Tichen thoughtfully helped me tuck the quilt, lie down slowly beside me, and put one hand on the quilt intentionally or unintentionally.

"Yeah." I slowly turned to the side. The dirty ground in front of me made me feel goose bumps. I asked worriedly: "Tichen, will there be mice?"

"Sleep, just fall asleep. Besides, if you have me, just sleep with peace of mind!" Tichen gently patted my back, whispering softly as if coaxing a child.

"Okay." I smiled at him, lowered my head and closed my eyes.

Although the hard ground made me feel a little uncomfortable, the warm breath from Tiaochen miraculously made me feel particularly warm.

...

"Ti Chen..." I opened my eyes and touched my side. I found that Ti Chen had disappeared, so I hurriedly shouted.

"What's the name? Your man is going out to work." The rough man suddenly pushed the door in with a hunting knife in one hand, cursing in anger.

"Work? What kind of work are you doing?" I looked at him in a daze, feeling an unknown premonition in my heart.
