экстравагантный - Глава 60
Soon, Lin Feng stood beside the naked Lei Ran, crossed his legs, admiring the handsome man bathing. He smacked his lips from time to time, freely commenting: "King Lei's physique is indeed excellent, not a bit too much muscle or fat. Tsk tsk, this body, it seems that 'something' is also quite large. Your concubines are so lucky..."
"go out!"
"Huh? King Lei, didn't you tell me to come in if I wanted to?" Lin Feng asked, puzzled.
"I'll wash up as soon as possible, and you get out of here!" A deafening roar echoed throughout the city. If this continued, he'd be the one consumed by lust! Lei Ran had miscalculated one thing: men's and women's impulses are sometimes completely different…
While sleeping...
Exhausted from a long day's work, both of them fell asleep under a blanket and began to snore loudly. But in the middle of the night, Lei Ran suddenly opened his sharp, eagle-like eyes and stared at Lin Feng for a long time. The latter was sleeping soundly and breathing evenly. Lei Ran then revealed a smug look in his eyes, grabbed the rope with one hand, and was about to make a move when a sinister laugh came from behind him.
"Thunder King, what are you doing?"
"..." Lei Ran managed to stammer out a few words: "This king needs to use the restroom..."
"Oh, why didn't you wake me up?" Lin Feng asked kindly, opening his sleepy eyes.
"I was thinking about your sleep! You took my kindness for granted?" Lei Ran glared with sharp eagle eyes and started spouting nonsense, clearly having been poisoned by Lin Feng too much.
"It's alright, it's alright, there's a chamber pot in the back, it's only a few steps away." The two rustled around and lay back down on the bed.
Not long after, Lei Ran opened his eyes again, thinking, "This time you're finally asleep, right?"
Before he could even grab the rope, Lin Feng frowned and sat up, his eyes still glazed over.
"Thunder King, are you going to the toilet again?"
"Cough cough cough, I have a bit of an upset stomach."
"Oh, since your stomach is upset, remember to ask the imperial physician to prescribe some medicine for you later," Lin Feng said with great concern.
"Thank you for your trouble, Dark King." Lei Ran said with a forced smile.
After another rustling sound, the two returned to bed.
A moment later, Lei Ran frowned, tossing and turning, this time he really couldn't hold it in any longer. Lin Feng rubbed his eyes and sat up, puzzled, "Lei Wang, why are you like a monkey, so restless! Do you need to go to the toilet again?"
"Uh... I am indeed..." Even Lei Ran, with his thick skin, felt a little uncomfortable.
"Hey, go on, go on, hurry up, I'll go with you." The two slowly got off the bed, but Lin Feng said with great concern, "King Lei, I'm not trying to be mean, but you, the ruler of a country, have such a hidden ailment. You mustn't delay too long. Find a folk doctor to treat it as soon as possible. If frequent urination is left untreated for too long, it might affect your function in some way!"
Lei Ran slipped and nearly fell flat on his back, angrily retorting, "I didn't..."
"No need to say anything, no need to say anything, I know everything! You didn't, you absolutely didn't!" Lin Feng looked like he knew everything, and shot him a sympathetic look. Lei Ran's handsome face turned red, and he turned and left pretending not to see it.
"Oh right, remember to ask the imperial kitchen to prepare more black soybeans and pig liver later, they're very good for treating frequent urination..." Lin Feng whispered thoughtfully from behind.
Lei Ran, who overheard this by "coincidence," felt like he wanted to die!
There were countless similar incidents. After suffering defeat after defeat, Lei Ran had no energy left to continue dawdling with this woman. He finally got used to having a "bottle of oil" by his side, and his relationship with Lin Feng became more and more peaceful.
Before long, the procession approached Tiancheng Kyoto.
Chapter Sixty-One: Assassination
That night, the traveling carriages stopped at the post station in Xiancheng. The Tiancheng officials who received them were trembling with fear. Lei Ran's ruthless methods were known throughout the Tiancheng Kingdom, and everyone was afraid. Each of them wore a look of fear and trepidation, afraid of angering him. It must be said that, except when facing Lin Feng, Lei Ran truly had the majesty of a hegemon.
Soon they would arrive at Juling City, the capital of Tiancheng. Tiancheng was situated in a plain and hilly area, the complete opposite of Beichen. Beichen had abundant water and was unsuitable for farming, while Tiancheng was mostly hilly and uncultivable. Lin Feng looked around and couldn't help but sigh repeatedly. If Lei Ran understood the terraced farming technique and made Tiancheng's harvests better, with a well-trained army and sufficient supplies, the situation in this world would likely be quite different.
Lei Ran stared at Lin Feng's delicate face, noticing her sighs and thoughtful expression, and couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking about?"
Over the past few days, Lin Feng has smoothed out the personality of this Prince Tiancheng, and now he no longer speaks to Lin Feng with that arrogant attitude and tone. This is a very good sign for Lin Feng.
"I despise King Lei. Such good land is not being cultivated and is being wasted here. It is an outrageous waste of resources!" Lin Feng said slowly, shaking his head.
"Oh? Things can grow in a place like this? Dark King must be making fun of me!" Lei Ran's eyes showed disdain and contempt.
"This kind of provocation won't work on me. Since King Lei has investigated my achievements as the Dark King of Beichen and knows the origin of Beichen Paddy Fields, why speak against my will? Or is it that King Lei hasn't had enough of my methods along the way?" Lin Feng sneered, completely unconcerned. "However, I'm sure King Lei understands that I can't teach you my techniques."
Lei Ranqing snorted with a handsome face, but he didn't fly into a rage. He had been completely fed up with this woman these past few days. He couldn't help it; he really didn't want to be driven to death by her. Any other way of dying would be much better than this.
Staring thoughtfully at Lin Feng, Lei Ran felt a pang of sadness. How wonderful it would be if such a person could be of use to him! Why did she encounter Bei Chen Tian first…?
After their usual meal and bath, the two climbed into bed one after the other, separated by a tall quilt. They closed their eyes and fell asleep. In no time, Lei Ran was fast asleep. After the frequent urination incident and the many attempts along the way, he no longer expected to be able to untie the ropes on his hands.
This woman is practically a slime! Even the slightest noise will wake her up instantly, without the slightest mistake. Lei Ran initially suspected that this woman hadn't slept at all the night before, but as soon as she stretched in the morning, she would immediately become lively and energetic again, showing no signs of lacking sleep.
In the dead of night, under a dark and windy sky, the howling cold wind poured into the windows, and somehow the atmosphere inside the house had become icy.
A dark figure lurked beside the wardrobe in front of the door, completely unaware of its presence; its method of concealment was quite ingenious.
An eerie silence reigned all around, broken only by the breathing of the two people on the bed. After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, confirming that the two were fast asleep, the dark figure gripped the gleaming dagger, quietly raised it, and suddenly flashed with murderous intent in his eyes. He moved like a wisp of green smoke, swiftly pounced on the bedside, and slashed down at the people on the bed!
The two who were fast asleep suddenly opened their eyes at the same time, their eyes clear and full of mockery and sarcasm, showing no signs of sleepiness.
The shadowy figure cried out in alarm and hurriedly withdrew his attack, but Lin Feng grabbed his wrist and immediately delivered a vicious kick to his chin, dislocating his jaw. A white cloth was stuffed into his mouth, and Lei Ran, with his fierce gaze, instantly subdued him, pulling out a torn sheet from the side and binding him tightly.
The figure in the shadows went black and nearly fainted; he had been captured alive! Moreover, his attackers seemed to know he was a suicide squad member, as they had dislocated his jaw to prevent him from committing suicide!
He never understood why, even though he was a top-notch assassin, his whereabouts were still discovered. Did those two people know he was coming to assassinate him? That's impossible!
In the darkness, Lei Ran's eagle eyes gleamed with an eerie light, resolving his doubts.
How did you know someone was there?
Lin Feng gave a faint, cold laugh: "No one, no living being, has ever been able to move alive beside me without my noticing. I am most adapted to darkness. Haven't you experienced that yet these past few days?"
