Chapter 465 Jiji Extra (8)
Why did he feel that it was not Xun Pei'er who was on the pirate ship, but himself?
"Then let's go." Gigi called her, "Try carrying the bag. If it doesn't work, give it to me."
"I'm fine! I won't cause you any trouble." Xun Pei'er trotted after him.
"It's okay." Gigi smiled, "I'm your husband, so you can bother me as much as you want."
"Yeah! My husband is so nice!" Xun Pei'er smiled unintentionally.
Some people feel guilty.
…
Jiji rented a carriage at the post station and hired a driver to take them west to the county seat of Luzhou.
On the one hand, he can take care of Xun Pei'er's health, and on the other hand, he can have more time to study "The Essentials of Astrology".
Although this road is on the official road, it is very bumpy.
Xun Pei'er had never ridden in such a bumpy carriage before. She vomited twice when the carriage stopped that day and basically didn't eat lunch. Even though Jiji gave her some spiritual power, the effect was not obvious.
Xun Pei'er didn't expect that her physical condition was so poor. She fell behind on the first day and was too embarrassed to see Gigi.
"How do you feel? How about I take you home first?" They found an inn to stay in at night. Gigi handed Xun Pei'er a glass of water and asked her this.
Unexpectedly, the latter didn't even swallow the water and just shook his head vigorously.
"Husband, I didn't get enough rest yesterday, so I'm not feeling well today. Can you give me another chance?"
"This isn't a question of opportunity," Gigi said patiently. "If we go too far and you can't handle it, and we can't go back, what are you going to do?"
"No!" Xun Pei'er pursed her lips, looking a little angry. "Don't you realize that even though I wasn't feeling well today, it didn't take me that long? I only vomited twice, and it took less than a quarter of an hour."
Jiji was stunned and then remembered that even after vomiting, Xun Peier never said she wanted to stop and rest. Every time she vomited, she would immediately ask the driver to drive.
She was really serious about not wanting to fall behind.
No matter how uncomfortable her body is.
"How about this?" Guido said. "We can just walk."
Xun Pei'er's eyes lit up immediately: "On foot? Great! I just can't take a carriage, so it doesn't matter how far we walk."
"That's possible," said Gigi. "The road here isn't as smooth as the one in the capital. There are lots of potholes and bumps. If you walk too far, your feet will definitely hurt. If you can't reach the next city at night, you'll have to sleep outdoors or in a farmhouse. The pit toilets in the farmhouses are different from the ones in our house. They're extremely smelly and easy to slip into..."
"Okay, okay, I get it!" Xun Pei'er said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
The two of them made an agreement and prepared to go to bed early.
They were already married, so when they asked for a room, they only asked for one, as they slept like this every day anyway.
If two rooms were opened, Gigi would have to keep an eye on her side, fearing something might happen.
"Husband, can I see your sword?" Xun Pei'er stared curiously at the dagger hanging next to Jiji's clothes.
That was the sword passed down from his family.
"Of course." Gigi leaned against the headboard. "Be careful when you handle it. It's very sharp."
Xun Peier hummed heavily, drew out the sword, and looked at its sharp blade and the undercurrent runes on it.
It looks so impressive. My husband must be very special to be able to wield such a powerful sword.
"I wish I were a boy," she said suddenly. "Then I could wield a sword and kill enemies like you. I heard that my husband slew a fire dragon a few years ago."
Gigi laughed: "It was a childhood thing, not worth mentioning."
"You were so powerful when you were a kid?!"
"Um."
"Hey! How can you show off like that!" Xun Pei'er quickly put the sword back, grabbed the pillow and threw it at Gigi.
"You asked, so I'm answering truthfully." Gigi rolled over and dodged with a smile.
The two of them played and fought, and fell asleep quickly when they were tired.
…
The next day, Xun Pei'er woke up and found that there was no one around her. She was immediately frightened awake and broke out in a cold sweat. She thought her husband didn't want to run away by himself. When she saw that his luggage and sword were still there, she breathed a sigh of relief.
How deep was her sleep last night? She didn't even notice her husband got up and went out. Usually they got up together.
Speak of the devil, and here comes Jiji, who pushes the door open at this moment.
"Are you awake?" He placed breakfast on the table. "If you're awake, get up and eat. I brought you a small gift."
"Gift?!" Xun Pei'er likes gifts the most. No matter how much they are worth, she enjoys the process of receiving gifts.
She quickly got up, changed her clothes, and started taking them off in front of Gigi.
"You..." Gigi turned around quickly, "Pull the bed curtains."
"Oh oh." Xun Pei'er was also very embarrassed. She pulled the bed curtain and curled up to change.
Neither of them realized that they were already husband and wife and didn't need to care about these things.
"I'm fine." Xun Pei'er jumped out of bed. "What gift did my husband bring me?"
Gigi handed her an intricately carved wooden sword.
"You reminded me yesterday that I need a weapon to protect myself when I'm out and about," he explained. "Don't underestimate it because it's a wooden sword. My senior sister said that wooden swords are the most powerful, capable of unleashing the full potential of their wielder."
This sentence was said to the fortune teller, meaning that the wooden sword can bring out all the fortune teller's spiritual power. For ordinary people, the steel sword is naturally more practical. This was used to fool Xiao Pei'er.
But for her, the wooden sword was indeed the most useful. It would not accidentally scratch her hands, and it could at least provide some protection against bad guys and wild beasts.
"Senior sister? Are you talking about Senior Sister Xu?" Xun Pei'er immediately turned into a super admirer, "I've heard about her deeds, she's like a legend!"
"Okay, our Pearl will be a legend in the future." Gigi laughed, "Hurry up and wash up, eat something, and get ready to go."
"Yes, Lord Shen!" Xun Pei'er blinked mischievously.
After everything was packed up, Jiji dismissed the carriage and the two of them walked to Luzhou County.
When people passing by saw them, they all said in their hearts that they were a perfect couple.
