Chapter 40 Chapter 40 Is he dreaming?

The fire flickered, and Miao Ying leaned against a corner of the room. Even the wind blowing through the cracks could not blow away the heat on his body.

Miao Ying was panting, and his hands did not stop moving, but it was like scratching an itch through a shoe. The urgent need was deep in his bones, and superficial relief had no effect at all.

Miao Ying wiped the sweat from his chin and couldn't help but sigh. This thing is really harmful. If this happens in public, wouldn't it be like an animal in heat? No dignity, no sense of shame.

Fortunately, he is not at home at the moment. Being in the deserted mountains makes him feel a little better. Otherwise, he doesn't know how to face his mother and grandmother in the future.

Miao Ying only felt his hands were sore, but the situation did not get better at all, so he put on his pants in despair and wanted to go out to get some cool breeze, but the moment he stood up, he felt the wet marks on his pants.

Miao Ying cursed a million times in his heart, but felt really embarrassed, even though there was no one around. So he had to sit back down, and the pants he had just pulled up were pulled down to his legs again, and he continued to digest it superficially.

As he moved, his desire grew instead of diminishing. He closed his eyes in a daze and thought, "Go to sleep. It's always good to be able to sleep."

But the dream was not peaceful either. The more he slept, the hotter he felt. He took off his outer clothes and was left with only his underwear, but he was still hot. He closed his eyes and tried to touch the water bag he had just placed here, but he couldn't find it.

He turned over and reached out again, but still couldn't touch the water bag, but he touched warm skin.

Miao Ying suddenly came to his senses. He sprinkled insect repellent powder around the wooden house, but this powder could not protect against large animals like tigers, lions and bears.

He instinctively wanted to scream, but he heard a deep voice from the darkness: "It's me."

Miao Ying had a lot to ask. He wanted to ask when he would come back, why he came up the mountain, and whether what he dreamed about last time really happened.

But he didn't ask a single question, because the wave that surged from the bottom of his heart was stirred up again.

Huo Xing also noticed that something was wrong with him, so he lit a fire stick and saw Miao Ying clearly in front of him.

His cheeks were flushed and his forehead was covered with sweat. He was wearing thin clothes on the cold spring night. Huo Xing immediately reached out and touched his forehead, and the heat made him tremble in his heart.

"Are you sick?" Huo Xing helped him up and found a quilt to wrap Miao Ying up.

Miao Ying coveted the coolness of his palm. After her body was wrapped in the quilt, her face followed his hand. Huo Xing's hand froze, and Miao Ying emerged from the quilt again, pressing her whole body against Huo Xing's body.

Huo Xing also reacted. He lowered his eyes and looked at Miao Ying, listening to Miao Ying mumbling about being uncomfortable. He put his hand on Miao Ying's face again, and sure enough, he heard Miao Ying's comfortable sigh.

There had never been a boy in their family, and he had never come into contact with one. He only occasionally heard those rough guys say dirty words when he was working outside, including those days when his boy's physiological condition was affected.

Miao Ying’s current situation is very similar to what they described.

"Miao Ying." Huo Xing called him softly. This seemed to be the first time Huo Xing called his name after Miao Ying came here. Because he was tall, his voice was very low. At this moment, it was like a bowl of strong liquor in Miao Ying's ears, making his already dizzy head even more like it was covered with paste.

She could only follow her instinct and move closer to Huo Xing, but she felt that his clothes were in the way, so she wanted to reach out and take off all his clothes.

Huo Xing held his hand, knowing that he was not conscious at the moment, and also predicting that he would regret it when he was conscious, so Huo Xing did not move.

Miao Ying was a little anxious because he couldn't find what he wanted, so he whimpered, "It's uncomfortable."

Huo Xing patted him on the back gently and said with some difficulty: "Be patient, it will pass."

Miao Ying tried hard to hear what he said. He said anxiously, "It won't go away. I've been feeling miserable all afternoon."

He pulled Huo Xing's hand and moved it under his body. It was a sticky ball, and Huo Xing's breathing became rapid.

"I..." He swallowed hard, "I can't."

Miao Ying was still struggling with Huo Xing's clothes. It looked like they could be untied easily, but now he couldn't get them untied. After hearing Huo Xing's words, Miao Ying's mind suddenly became clear. He looked at Huo Xing in disbelief, "How can a man say he can't do it?"

Huo Xing couldn't help but feel a little moved when listening to his words. Just when Miao Ying was rubbing his neck, he came to his senses again. No, this can't be done. Miao Ying is not sober. This can't be done.

He slightly distanced himself from Miao Ying and reached out to hold his waist: "I'll help you."

Miao Ying was confused and was then caught.

It was a completely different feeling from what he had felt in the afternoon. Huo Xing's hand was cold when it landed on his face, but now it was very hot, and his hand was so big that it seemed to be strangling his throat.

But this was not enough. After a while of comfort, he began to hum again. Huo Xing had no choice but to go to the place covered with water marks.

Miao Ying's mind went blank for a moment, and an unprecedented sense of satisfaction rose in his heart. A long time passed while he was humming softly.

Huo Xing looked at the sleeping Miao Ying, tucked him in, and then walked out of the house. As the cold wind blew, he gradually calmed down. However, the wound on his back had opened again during the previous movement, but he didn't feel any pain at all.

He arrived home in the afternoon. He had previously followed the escort agency to Cangzhou. He thought he was going to retrieve the escort for his master, but he didn't expect that it would involve the imperial court.

Huo Xing had almost forgotten the danger involved, but what impressed him most was the red tasseled spear that fell from the sky when he was looking at the oncoming knife after he was slashed on the back.

The battle situation changed in an instant. After the reinforcements arrived, they quickly cleared out the entire bandit's lair. During the rest period, Huo Xing heard the name of the owner of the red tassel spear.

His name is Zhou Yu.

He is the son of Zhou Yuan, the founder of Zhenwei Escort Agency. He was the first martial arts champion after the martial arts examination was held a few years ago. This time, on his way back to Beijing to report on his work, he heard the signal from Zhenwei Escort Agency and immediately brought his men to reinforce.

If he had not arrived in time, I am afraid that all of them would have died here. There were more than 20 people in their group, 10 of them were slightly injured, 5 were seriously injured, and the rest could never return.

Huo Xing's injury was not serious, but he still needed to recuperate for a while. Zhou Yu would handle the remaining affairs of the bandit's den, and they returned to the provincial capital with the bodies of their deceased brothers.

Huo Xing walked silently on the road, looking at his own hands. Just when he was heading towards the bandits' den, someone stuffed a knife into his hands.

When the first bandit's blood splashed on his face, his mind went blank for a moment, so he didn't notice the knife falling on his side. It was the chief escort who pulled him away without giving him more time to react. The chief escort said that he would die if he was not careful.

Huo Xing woke up in an instant. He couldn't die. He had to go back to accompany Miao Ying to collect the rapeseed from him.

Huo Xing no longer knew what it felt like to kill someone. He just wanted to survive and return with his money and his people safe and sound.

The master gave a lot of compensation, and the Zhenwei Escort Agency also gave a lot of silver to the escorts. Moreover, the situation was so dangerous, so each of the survivors received twenty taels, and the escort agency would also take care of the aftermath of those who died.

Huo Xing stayed in the escort agency to recuperate from his injuries for a while. The two young masters who had rented him came to see him and wanted to hear what he had to say about the situation. Huo Xing spoke in a poor and dry voice, but the two young masters listened with great interest. Before leaving, one of them gave him five taels of silver and asked him to take good care of his injuries.

His injuries have not yet healed completely, but he can't wait to go home. Miao Ying must have been waiting for him for a long time, and perhaps his rapeseed has already matured.

The chief escort wanted to keep him, but Huo Xing was determined to go home. Before leaving, he gave the chief escort his home address and told him that if anything happened, he could just come find him. The chief escort was busy dealing with the aftermath, so he had no choice but to let him go.

Before leaving the city, Huo Xing went out for a walk, which was rare. He had some money in his hands, so he wanted to buy some things for his family.

He bought some snacks from the city for his grandmother and mother, and a set of pens and ink for Huo Xiaobao. Finally, he bought Miao Ying. He really didn't know what to buy for Miao Ying. He saw that the men in the city were all buying something called honey ointment, which was said to make the skin as smooth as cream after applying it. He thought Miao Ying's face was already like a peeled egg, and if he applied this, it would probably be even better.

A box cost half a tael of silver, but Huo Xing still gritted his teeth and bought it.

He earned a total of thirty-six taels of silver on this trip. He spent more than one tael on buying things today, and had thirty-four taels and one hundred coins left. Before leaving, he went to the wine shop and spent more than one tael of silver to buy wine for the people from the escort agency to thank them for their care over the years.

When he returned home, his grandmother and Li Hongying saw that he looked pale, so they took him aside to have a good look, then hugged him and cried for a while. Only then did Huo Xing realize that Miao Ying was not there.

When he didn't see Miao Ying, his blood ran cold, thinking that Miao Ying had abandoned them again during his absence.

Li Hongying looked at his expression and said with red eyes, "Xiaoying went up the mountain and said he was going to collect something."

Huo Xing was stunned for a moment, then looked at the darkening sky, put down his things, and headed up the mountain. Grandmother wanted to stop him, but was stopped by Li Hongying.

He went up the mountain under the cover of night. He knew the road by heart, having walked it thousands of times. When he reached the wooden house and saw the tiny light of the fire, his original reluctance to let go finally came to an end.

His movements were very gentle. Miao Ying had fallen asleep, but seemed to be sleeping restlessly. Everything that happened afterwards was far beyond Huo Xing's imagination.

I stood outside the wooden house for a long time, until my legs were a little stiff, before I went back into the house. At this time, there was already some light in the sky.

Miao Ying was sleeping soundly. Huo Xing took a look inside the house and then went out. There was not much food here. Miao Ying had consumed a lot of food. And he heard that this situation would last for a few days. He had to find some more food. Now it was spring, and he should be able to find prey.

As the morning light brightened, Miao Ying slowly woke up, his mind feeling confused. He remembered what happened last night, looked down at his neatly-fitted underwear, and frowned.

Was he having an erotic dream? Or was he dreaming about doing something with his good brother?
