Four Hundred and Sixty-Two: The First Winter (9)

So thin?

When she held Wei Ci just now, Jiang Pengji had already discovered that although Wei Ci was tall, he was very light. Now she could feel his bones, and it felt like he had almost no flesh on his body, only bones.

She couldn't help but wonder if this guy had gone to some famine-stricken area for a year and lost the few pounds of flesh he had already lost?

She secretly touched his waist with her fingers, and the first feeling was that he was thin, too thin.

Jiang Pengji wrapped Wei Ci tightly and held him in her arms, while letting Dabai run at full speed.

The oncoming cold wind blew on her face, which was painful, but Jiang Pengji didn't feel anything. Instead, Wei Ci shrank unconsciously and hid in her arms.

She sighed softly, grabbed the reins with one hand, and passed her hand under his armpit to press the back of his head, trying to block the biting cold wind as much as possible.

On the other side, Dian Yin watched Jiang Pengji carry his teacher away.

Her whole set of movements was as smooth as flowing water, and she did it in one go.

Dian Yin had no time to stop her, and even before he could react, Dabai had already ridden away.

Li Yun said, "Brother, don't worry, the lord said he knew your teacher, so he definitely knew him."

Dian Yin's lips moved, and now he could only believe the young man who claimed to be Xiangyang County Magistrate, and the teacher's illness could not be delayed any longer.

On the side, Li Yun's curiosity was aroused, and his gossip factor was unusually active.

"Brother, where is your teacher from?"

Li Yun just watched the whole process from the side and saw Wei Ci's appearance.

Although this patient was seriously ill and thin, he did not become ugly and terrifying, but added a few traces of sympathetic fragility. Li Yun had never seen a man who looked so good even when he was sick.

Dian Yin replayed the scene just now in his mind. Jiang Pengji's movements were fast but not rude.

Just based on this detail, he could feel a little relieved.

Hearing Li Yun's question, Dian Yin remained silent, with an expression that said "I don't want to talk to strangers, shut up."

Li Yun was bored,

so he simply changed the way he asked.

He carefully discovered that the three people came down from the mountain, "Hey, what happened to you and your husband? Why are you so embarrassed? Yun thinks you and your husband are really strange. You are born strong and sturdy, with flesh everywhere, and your husband is so thin that only bones are left. Can illness really make people so thin? Hey, say something."

The first snow fell for three days and three nights, and the heavy snow had already covered the mountain road.

Could it be that these people ran to the mountains to take refuge, but unfortunately encountered heavy snow, and had to bite the bullet and go down the mountain to treat their illnesses?

Dian Yin didn't want to pay attention to Li Yun, because the handsome young man in front of him was really noisy.

However, thinking of the more than 500 people trapped on the mountain, he hesitated, and his rough face showed a bit of desire.

"There are still more than 500 people trapped on the mountain. We were chased by the Qingyi Army and had to flee to the mountain for refuge."

When Li Yun heard that there were still people trapped on the mountain, his face became more serious, and suddenly there was a mature aura.

"Two warriors, follow Yun to Xiangyang County first. When the heavy snow stops, we will send soldiers to pick up the people on the mountain tomorrow."

Dian Yin heard that this was the only way now, and he clasped his fists to thank Li Yun.

"Hey, what's there to thank." Li Yun scratched his head and said shyly, "It's also my job."

As long as it is within the territory of Xiangyang County, the people's affairs are the county government's affairs. Li Yun just patted his chest to guarantee it.

On the other side, Jiang Pengji rode his horse all the way, almost at the fastest speed to Xiangyang County.

Wei Ci was still trapped in a nightmare, with scattered and fragmented memories filling his brain, blurring his mind between life and death.

After an unknown amount of time, his cold and stiff body slowly warmed up, and the bumpy feeling became more solid from ethereal and illusory...

Was this another dream, or something else?

Wei Ci frowned uncomfortably and coughed twice with great effort. He thought he coughed very loudly, but it sounded like a kitten's cry to Jiang Pengji. If it weren't for her good hearing, she might not have noticed that he was awake.

After a long time, Wei Ci barely regained consciousness, and then he squinted and found that he couldn't move his whole body.

"Awake?"

A cold and familiar voice came from above his head, and Wei Ci's face changed, and he couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.

"If you wake up, let me say something first. It's still a while before we get to the county town. If you fall asleep now, I can't guarantee that you will wake up next time." Jiang Pengji lowered her body slightly to reduce the resistance of the wind. "I found that every time I saw you, you were either sick or on the way to being sick... By the way, have you been so weak and sick since you were a child?"

Wei Ci's consciousness completely returned. He was so scared when he found out about his current situation that he tensed up and dared not move.

Of course, according to his current situation, he couldn't move even if he wanted to.

Jiang Pengji wanted to speak, but Wei Ci's fans in the live broadcast room were not happy.

[Ci Meiren Marry Me]: Broadcaster, my Ci Meiren is already so sick, so don't bully her.

[Today's fifth update]: That's right - but a beauty is a beauty, even if she is skinny, she is still beautiful.

[The debt has finally been reduced]: Beauty is in the bones, not in the skin. It's not like those Internet celebrities nowadays, whose big eyes are made by surgery, whose nose bridge is made by filling, whose chin is made by filing, and whose watery skin is made by injections. With a face like this, even the person’s biological mother probably wouldn’t be able to recognize him after the hyaluronic acid melts away.

[Let's go on a date tonight]: Your topic is off. Didn't we ask the anchor not to bully the beautiful lady Ci?

Jiang Pengji didn't need these viewers to remind her, and she was in no mood to bully Wei Ci.

She had a gloomy face, but Wei Ci had no words to complain about. She was so scared that she didn't even dare to sleep.

Jiang Pengji was a head taller than the average woman, and not worse than a man.

Wei Ci curled up into a ball, and became so thin, he could really nestle in her arms.

In addition to her movements, the posture of the two people was a little subtle now. Wei Ci's face was facing her chest... This was a little embarrassing... Wei Ci's cheeks were a little red. It was okay when he was unconscious before, but now that he was a little awake, he wanted to keep as much distance as possible.

"Why are you moving? Be careful or I'll throw you off the horse."

Jiang Pengji warned unhappily.

Wei Ci held it in for a long time before saying, "Men and women... should not touch each other..."

"I don't believe you."

She sneered coldly, her words shocked Wei Ci so much that he dared not say a word, and even his dizzy brain became a little clearer. She said, "For someone who knows me, Liu Xi, so well, are you sure that our relationship really stops beyond the bottom line of 'not touching each other'?"

She didn't know what Wei Ci had experienced, but his reaction and the existence of the system gave her a lot of ideas!

Wei Ci's face changed, and finally he chose to play dead and stopped struggling.
