Chapter 298 Still No Title
Looking up at the young lady's extremely pretty face and her smiling red lips that always exuded an alluring and warm breath when she opened them, Wang Yao said with embarrassment, "It's a bit unbearable."
There is a beautiful lady in front of you, and you are holding her smooth, slender feet in your hands. When you feel the hot and delicate touch from your hands, accompanied by the warm and charming body fragrance, who can remain calm?
If someone really dares to say that he has no distracting thoughts in such a situation, then he would be too hypocritical.
Wang Yao would not deny the throbbing of desire. Human beings are inherently emotional animals and act based on desire. It is not shameful to be distracted when faced with a beautiful woman.
He also admitted that the eldest lady was now in her prime and was very likable in every way, but it was precisely because of this that he was always respectful to her whenever he was alone with Sun Shangxiang.
It's not just because Sun Shangxiang and Liu Bei have a nominal engagement, but also because in Wang Yao's heart, there is only room for one person.
If you really want to be responsible for your significant other, you should be self-disciplined. The so-called loyalty is never a sanctimonious pretense, but a lot of perseverance.
Perhaps with Wang Yao's current strength and status, he could easily have three wives and four concubines like in the YY novel plot, and it would be legitimate in this alien world, but that would be too unfair to Luna who has always been wholeheartedly devoted to him, and it would also lose his sense of responsibility as a man.
Therefore, facing Sun Shangxiang's intentional or unintentional teasing, Wang Yao calmed down instead. In this situation, he just wanted to end this somewhat ambiguous behavior as soon as possible.
"Please be patient, it will heal soon." After saying that, Wang Yao continued to clean Sun Shangxiang's wound while taking a piece of green elm grass from the side, chewed it into pieces and applied it to the wound.
This herb was used by Luna to heal Wang Yao when he was injured in the wild area, and the effect was quite good.
With Wang Yao's instructions, Sun Shangxiang, who seemed to be very afraid of pain, no longer made those seductive cries, but just sat there quietly and endured it silently.
In fact, girls who appear to be open-minded are often very sensible in their hearts and extremely conservative in their thinking. They will make all kinds of jokes with the opposite sex without restraint, but they will also stop when it is too much. At least Sun Shangxiang belongs to this type.
After that, everything went smoothly. After Wang Yao applied the medicine, he took a clean bandage and bandaged Sun Shangxiang's wound. He stood up and said, "That's it."
Sun Shangxiang silently retracted her slender legs. Her originally pale face became a little rosy because her injuries had eased. She looked up at Wang Yao and seemed to hesitate for a moment before she stammered and whispered, "Thank you, thank you."
The eldest daughter who has always been so self-centered would actually thank others?
Wang Yao glanced at Sun Shangxiang with a hint of surprise, then chuckled and said, "No need, you saved me, this is nothing."
After saying that, he walked aside and started to mess with the animal meat; heroes are not cultivators, cultivators can go on a fast without eating, but heroes still need to rely on food to maintain basic physical strength.
Sun Shangxiang sat on the side with her chin propped up by her hands, watching Wang Yao busying himself with skill, and couldn't help but say, "You are quite skilled, and you seem to know everything. Before joining the army, you were not a handyman, were you?"
Wang Yao put the meat slices on the famous knife and roasted them on the campfire, and said shyly: "Sir, we are just soldiers. This is basic skill in the army. We are not like you heroes. Even in the canyon, there are people who prepare food for you."
Sun Shangxiang raised her eyebrows and said, "Why do you sound prejudiced against heroes? In fact, in a sense, you are also a hero, right? At least in my opinion, you are very strong, even scary. You can fight against four heroes of Wei State in a row, and even kill two of them!"
“Well, sir, just treat me as a special soldier.” Wang Yao didn’t want to reveal too much about himself to Sun Shangxiang, so he immediately changed the subject and said, “Relatively speaking, you are the bravest among all the soldiers. Dian Wei is the undisputed number one warrior in Wei State, but even he was defeated by you. It shows that you are the strongest archer among the Three Kingdoms.”
Sun Shangxiang was really a simple girl with no ulterior motives. After being praised by Wang Yao, she immediately forgot her intention to ask more questions: "Hehe, even if you say that, I won't be happy!"
Having said that, her pretty face had already smiled into a vivid and beautiful flower.
Of course, Wang Yao did not dislike Sun Shangxiang's straightforward character, and her strong self-confidence from the inside out was something that many people envied but lacked.
In fact, as a shooter with strong mobility and high burst ability that can destroy the world, Sun Shangxiang can indeed be regarded as the strongest shooter in Three Kingdoms.
The three skills not only have abnormal physical bonuses of over 100%, but also have various additional effects such as deceleration, blasting, physical penetration, etc. When you meet the enemy, you can use skills 1 and 2 at the same time, and basically kill a fragile ADC in seconds.
Without her explaining in detail, Wang Yao could guess that when fighting against Dian Wei, Sun Shangxiang could completely rely on the 2% deceleration + 90% physical penetration effect of her second skill [Red Lotus Bomb] to use the kite tactic. In front of her, no matter how strong Dian Wei's pursuit ability was, he was just a moving target!
When you move forward, she slows you down and shoots you at the same time. When you retreat, she slows you down and continues to shoot you. When you run away with low health, she uses one of her ultimate skills [Ultimate Crossbow] with +185% physical damage bonus, which explodes at a very long distance and kills you instantly. That's it!
Sun Shangxiang is such a violent shooter. She has good skills. Killing someone is no different from drinking water. She can beat you without even taking a breath!
At this moment, Sun Shangxiang suddenly said something inappropriate: "But speaking of which, judging from the situation at that time, you seemed to know the newcomer from Wei State? And you seemed to know him very well."
The cave, which had been warmed by the bonfire, suddenly became cold because of Sun Shangxiang's words.
Wang Yao's expression slowly changed, losing the gentle lines. The orange-red firelight was reflected in his eyes, filled with an indescribable sadness.
"Uh, just pretend I didn't say that." Sun Shangxiang seemed to realize that Wang Yao's mood had suddenly become extremely depressed, so she quickly changed her words.
After five minutes of uncomfortable silence, Wang Yao finally spoke.
"He is my friend and my brother. We were both soldiers in the Shu Kingdom's road army and served in the same vanguard squad. We have fought many victories together and have also been forced into desperate situations together and survived. We can be said to be the best partners who can share honor and disgrace."
Wang Yao slowly turned the famous knife so that the meat slices could be evenly roasted, and continued: "But the canyon battlefield is a very cruel place for soldiers. In a war against Wei, all our companions were brutally killed by the enemy. We were the only two left in the team overnight. He also suffered a huge blow at that time. Because he was different from me, he resolutely chose to betray Shu and defected to the enemy Wei. That's when we parted ways."
The rich aroma of meat slowly spread in the cave as time passed, but it could not arouse the appetite of a person who was immersed in the past.
Wang Yao squeezed the juice of the fruit used for seasoning onto the meat slices, and said with a complicated expression: "But what I can't understand is that in just half a year, the person who had the same dream as me has completely changed. Although our paths are different, at least we both decided to fight to save the soldiers, but today, he has completely forgotten his original intention."
At this point, Wang Yaolian's hand holding the famous sword was shaking slightly uncontrollably, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Perhaps, not everyone can finish what they started. Some people go off the path as they go along.
Sun Shangxiang, who had been listening carefully to Wang Yao's past, stared at Wang Yao in front of the campfire with her lively green eyes. After a while, she said, "Don't be sad. I think what your friend said is not wrong."
Wang Yao raised his eyebrows and looked back at Sun Shangxiang.
Sun Shangxiang said, "The law of this world is that the strong prey on the weak. The strong will always be strong, and the weak will always be weak. This is all destined. Although it is cruel, it is also the truth. What's more, the world is so big that you really can't decide everything. There are so many soldiers, how many can you save? Maybe your partner didn't deviate from his original intention, but just recognized the reality. At least in my opinion, he is right. Since you have the ability to transcend the world, why bother about the life and death of a mere ant?"
"Heh." Wang Yao laughed coldly. After all, it turned out that Sun Shangxiang was just like other heroes.
"What are you laughing at?" Sun Shangxiang was very concerned about Wang Yao's sneer, because it made her feel inexplicably uncomfortable. Wang Yao said coldly: "My lord, please think about it. If you were not a hero, but one of the weak ones, would you still say such a thing? You are lucky and born to be an invincible hero, but the soldiers are different. They are weak, so weak that they can't even have the consciousness to resist. Isn't this the biggest mistake and sadness in this world? We are all living beings, and some of them are obviously greater than heroes. Why do they have to die? And heroes can be resurrected infinitely?"
As Sun Shangxiang looked uncertain, Wang Yao said, "With great ability comes great responsibility. If everyone is as selfish as the hero and only cares about themselves, then the world will never make progress. My hometown has also experienced the ravages of war. The reason why it was able to rise to prosper is because of those people with great righteousness who sacrificed their lives and shed their blood. I know this road will be difficult, but someone has to do it, right? It's better than dying together."
The cave fell silent again.
Sun Shangxiang stared at Wang Yao, who was staring at the campfire, in a trance. After a long time, a smile from the bottom of her heart slowly appeared at the corner of her lips, where Wang Yao could not see.
"There are still idiots like you in this world who are willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of everyone else."
In response to Wang Yao's impassioned speech, Sun Shangxiang made a very pertinent comment without any hesitation.
But having said that, she then smiled and said to Wang Yao: "However, from now on, I really look up to you, a little soldier. There are many people who can say nice things, but few can put them into action. In this respect, you are better than many people. Maybe you are right, but no matter what, I will support you!"
"Thank you." Wang Yao was stunned. He didn't expect that Sun Shangxiang, who was always noisy, also had a compassionate side. For him, a word of encouragement was the greatest support.
So looking at Sun Shangxiang, Wang Yao finally smiled again: "Sorry, my tone seemed a little harsh just now. Actually, you are right, my behavior is indeed a bit stupid. Not only that, some people even say that I am hypocritical."
"Tsk, if you say that, I will despise you." Sun Shangxiang rolled her eyes at Wang Yao. "A real man can conquer the world with a three-foot sword in hand. Why bother about other people's opinions? Can you have a little self-confidence? Look at me, when have I ever been afraid of other people's criticism? There are so many people who say bad things about me, who do they think they are?"
"Your Excellency is mighty and majestic." Wang Yao could only smile bitterly at this.
There are many kinds of people. Not everyone can be as free and easy as Sun Shangxiang, at least Wang Yao can't, otherwise he wouldn't have compassion for the soldiers. This is the essential difference between him and Sun Shangxiang.
But it is undeniable that chatting with a confident person is indeed a very pleasant thing, because she can always bring people a sense of power from the heart. This is the charm of Sun Shangxiang.
Then, Sun Shangxiang said with a dissatisfied look on her face: "Also, what's wrong with you? Why do you always call me Sir? I've told you countless times to call me Miss! Otherwise."
After a pause, Sun Shangxiang turned her head away and muttered in a low voice: "Otherwise, you can just call me by my name."
Wang Yao thought about it, and then resolutely chose the former. He stood up, wrapped the roasted meat slices in a clean leaf, handed it to Sun Shangxiang, and said, "Please enjoy your meal, Miss."
Perhaps it was the first time that Sun Shangxiang ate the meat of wild monsters in the wild. After taking the food from Wang Yao, she stared at the barbecued meat with a strange expression for a long time, not knowing whether it was clean or not. She hesitated for a long time before slowly taking a bite.
But when the tender, juicy, rich and delicious meat spread in her mouth, Sun Shangxiang's eyes suddenly lit up, reflecting the firelight, as beautiful as an emerald, and she couldn't help but say, "It's delicious!"
Wang Yao smiled and handed over the bamboo tube filled with water. Then he couldn't wait to eat his share. After fighting for a whole day, he was really hungry.
By the time the two had eaten and drunk their fill, it was slowly approaching late at night.
Wang Yao glanced at the quiet night scene outside the cave, chewed the sweet wild fruit in his hand, and stood up and said, "It's getting late, Miss, you should rest first."
Having said that, he walked towards the cave entrance.
"Where are you going?" Sun Shangxiang called Wang Yao in confusion.
"I'll be keeping watch at the cave entrance." Wang Yao said while drinking water.
"There's no need to run so far, right? Won't you be cold at night?" Sun Shangxiang patted the warm blanket under her body, and then said something that was very much in her style: "Why not come here and sleep with me?"
puff!
The unexpected words made Wang Yao instinctively spit out all the water in his mouth. After coughing violently for a while, Wang Yao said with difficulty: "Miss, you are the daughter of a wealthy family after all. Can you be more careful with your words? There are differences between men and women, don't you understand?"
"What's wrong with men and women? It's nothing to just sleep together. I didn't expect you to be so conservative. Or..." At this point, Sun Shangxiang curved her beautiful eyes and said with a smile: "Or are you hiding something?"
In response, Wang Yao could only smile bitterly: "I am just a human being, please stop making fun of me, Miss."
After saying this, he no longer paid any attention to Sun Shangxiang and sat alone at the entrance of the cave.
The bonfire in the center of the cave was still burning, and the crackling sound of firewood could be heard from time to time.
After a while, Sun Shangxiang's whispering voice could be heard from behind again: "Hey, why are you always so polite to me? Do I look scary?"
"Young Miss is so beautiful that she can make fishes sink to the depths and geese fall to the ground. How can she be scary?" Wang Yao yawned and said with his back to her, "But Young Miss, you and Liu Bei are engaged. If we spend a night together, it would be indecent if it gets out. So, at this time, we should avoid suspicion."
But just as she finished speaking, Sun Shangxiang replied with a slightly disdainful and meaningful tone: "Tsk, what's there to avoid? I haven't promised Liu Bei anything yet."
The atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle.
Wang Yao turned around and looked at the girl in green dress who was sitting on the blanket in a duck-like posture. At this moment, he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he did see a subtle and moving light in Sun Shangxiang's bright eyes.
Wang Yao was stunned.
But in the blink of an eye, he seemed to remember something and turned his head away. After five seconds, he said calmly, "Miss, please go to bed early."
After saying this, he leaned against the cold stone wall at the entrance of the cave, put aside all distracting thoughts for the moment, and silently looked at the night sky without saying anything else.
There was no more sound in the cave, and the world was finally quiet.
Wang Yao stared up at the beautiful starry sky, enjoying this wonderful night, not knowing whether he was spending it with someone else or alone.
The moon tonight is very round and beautiful. The blue night sky, reflecting the bright moonlight and a few white clouds floating in it, gives people a very subtle and ethereal feeling.
I don't know how Luna is doing in Fuso, whether she is injured or eating well.
With this thought in mind, Wang Yao, who was already very tired, leaned against the wall at the entrance of the cave and slowly closed his increasingly heavy eyes.
