Xu Jinhuan looked at his hands, then looked at Kong Duiyue, whose belt was untied, outer shirt slightly open, and whose face showed surprise.
"No, it's not what you think. I just want to take you away like this."
Xu Jinhuan felt that she couldn't explain it clearly. Oh my God, she really didn't intend to do anything. Who could have thought that the quality of belts in ancient times was so poor!
Kong Duiyue coughed lightly and suppressed the smile on his lips. At the same time, he quickly closed his coat and fastened his belt again.
He said in a gentle voice: "Miss Xu, Kong understands. This is an accident. You don't have to mind it. Besides, there are only you and me here, so I don't think it will be spread out."
Xu Jinhuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then she was in trouble again. Now that she couldn't pull the belt, how should she lead the people?
Xu Jinhuan looked at Kong Duiyue for a while, and finally put his arms around his waist, using his lightness skills to fly directly downstream of the river.
Kong Duiyue didn't cause any trouble this time. He just silently felt the same wind and listened to the same birdsong with Xu Jinhuan.
When Xu Jinhuan finally brought people back to the base, as soon as he landed, he saw Xie Datou looking at them in surprise.
"Brother Kong? Boss? You guys?!"
Xu Jinhuan quickly let go of Kong Duiyue's waist, walked to Xie Datou and gave him a slap.
"What are you thinking about? I happened to meet him upstream. He was not feeling well. I was just coming back, so I gave him a ride for your sake."
Xie Datou rubbed his aching head and muttered, "I see, Boss, there's nothing wrong between you and Brother Kong, you're all trying to help me."
Xu Jinhuan glanced at Xie Datou when he heard this. Although there was nothing wrong with what he said, why did it feel so strange?
Forget it, she still had things to do and had no time to deal with this idiot.
While thinking this, Xu Jinhuan walked to Xie Guangbai's carriage and knocked on the shaft.
Hearing the voice, Xie Guangbai pulled open the curtain, and when he saw it was Xu Jinhuan, he immediately got off the carriage.
"Master, what do you want me to do?"
After thinking for a moment, Xu Jinhuan expressed his thoughts, "The weather will get hotter and hotter in the future, and it is inevitable that everyone will feel uncomfortable on the road. Do you have any herbal tea recipes to clear away heat and relieve summer heat?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Guangbai felt that Xu Jinhuan was very considerate and even wanted to take care of these little things. He really followed the right person.
He had no idea that Xu Jinhuan did this just to complete his task better. The two people's ideas were indeed poles apart, but fortunately they ended up with the same result.
Xie Guangbai thought about it slowly for a while, then said with a smile.
"Yes, I have a herbal tea recipe passed down from my ancestors. Drinking it is the best way to relieve summer heat and cool down. It not only makes you feel comfortable on the outside, but also relieves the heat in your internal organs."
After hearing this, Xu Jinhuan nodded repeatedly. He thought that what Xie Guangbai made was just ordinary herbal tea, but he didn't expect it to have the effect of relieving the heat in the internal organs.
You know, once the surrounding temperature rises, the human body is prone to heat stroke if it stays in this environment for a long time. This herbal tea comes at the perfect time!
"That's it. First, check if you have enough medicinal herbs. If not, I can help you find more. The faster the herbal tea is made, the better." Xu Jinhuan said with a smile.
Xie Guangbai was also very happy that he could help his master. Upon hearing this, he immediately returned to the carriage with great enthusiasm and began to prepare the herbal tea.
After Xu Jinhuan finished arranging all these, he casually found a place under the shade of a tree to sit down, listening to the women chatting while closing his eyes and thinking about his next strategy.
"Aunt, what are you doing with all those clothes?"
"Of course I'm doing laundry. It rained for so many days before, and the clothes just won't dry no matter how hard I wash them. They smell musty.
Now that the sun is out, I have to wash it quickly, then string it with a rope and hang it next to the carriage, it will definitely dry quickly!"
"Oh, you're right. Why didn't I think of that? Wait for me. I'll wash the clothes in my bag too."
…
After collecting water, washing clothes and having lunch, and waiting until the sun was not so scorching, Xu Jinhuan and his group set off again.
The journey lasted three days. They traveled at full speed the whole time. Except for replenishing the water they had consumed when they came across a water source, they even ate their meals casually in the carriage.
Fortunately, the efforts were not in vain, and now we have arrived in Jizhou.
At the same time, everyone's expressions were becoming increasingly heavy. Only three days had passed, and the temperature was already hotter than the highest temperature in the capital city in previous years.
They couldn't stand the heat anymore, and if it weren't for the carriage, it would have been a problem to travel.
But if the temperature continues to rise like this, not to mention the carriage, even the horses won’t want to move.
Therefore, when Xu Jinhuan discovered that the temperature was wrong, he immediately adjusted his travel time and prepared to hide during the day and travel at night to reduce casualties.
At this time, everyone hid in a dilapidated temple and waited for the sun to set before continuing their journey.
"What the hell is God trying to do? Does he want to torture us all to death?" A woman wiped the sweat from her daughter's face with concern, but forgot to wipe it off her own face.
The plump white aunt fanned herself with a straw-leaf fan and replied with her eyes closed.
"Just be content. Now we have someone to get around and enough water to drink. If Jinhuan wasn't here, we would have probably died of the heat by now."
The woman sighed when she heard this, "Ah, you are right. The refugees we met on the road who were left homeless by the floods were all pale and skinny, so pitiful.
I can’t imagine how miserable we would be without Boss Xu. We might even be worse off than refugees.”
"In my opinion, Boss Xu is the reincarnation of a god from heaven. Otherwise, how could she be so capable and kind-hearted!" another woman said with certainty.
Although the other people present agreed, they did not particularly believe it. After all, gods and the like were too far away from ordinary people like them.
However, the secret guards nodded their heads one by one and gave the woman a thumbs up silently. Your guess is so accurate. Boss Xu is really the reincarnation of an immortal!
Xu Jinhuan listened to those people praising him more and more absurdly and coughed helplessly. He said, "Stop praising me. If you keep praising me, I'm going to make you look stupid."
Just then, there was a sudden noisy sound outside the dilapidated temple.
"All outsiders, please leave immediately!"
"Why do you think you are the king of the world?"
"Hey, you lowly people dare to be so stubborn? Our master wants to stay in this broken temple. Before he gets angry, you lowly people should get out of here!"
When the people in the temple heard the noisy noise, their faces changed.
"We really have to leave. It's so hot outside now. If we go out and find another place now, won't we get sunburned?"
"You are too timid. Hurry up and grab your weapons. Why should we go just because he tells us to? We have killed all the bandits in the past. What else do we need?"
