This night was particularly long, although it was only a few hours, but after some experience, everyone was thirsty and tired, it was easy to rest, and finally they were able to eat, drink and sleep, and lay down on the ground one by one, looking at the stars in the night sky, but it was also very comfortable.

Qiu Ji tore off one leg of the roasted hare, tore it into small pieces, and handed it to Yao Shi on the washed leaves.

Yao Xian's eyes glanced to both sides, and when he saw that everyone didn't look at her, he took it and thanked him with a smile.

Wu Shiwei also tore a rabbit leg, but he was so scalded that he almost threw it out, and wrapped it on the leaves with his left and right hands in turn, and blew a few breaths of cool air before he began to eat.

"This rabbit is fat, but it's a pity that it's a little bit worse, if you let Guiyun Pavilion do it, it must be a superb rabbit." ”

Yao Xian has been poor since he was a child, so he naturally doesn't pick it, and said with a smile: "Next time Mu is on vacation, I will definitely book a seat with you in Guiyun Pavilion first." ”

Wu Shiwei glanced at Qiu Ji with his eyes: "Go to Guiyun Pavilion to have more life, next time I will definitely bring gifts to visit your house, I didn't bring some gifts yesterday, I really don't want to go." ”

Yao Shi didn't know what the meaning of his words was, but she knew that Wu Shiwei was unprofitable and couldn't afford to be early, and she knew that Wu Shiwei was standing on the side of Yang Meng.

Meng Meng...... Yao Yan shook her head violently, she didn't want to think deeply, because the intricacies in it were too complicated, she felt a chill when she thought about it, there, it was not something she could touch, she was just a small Yangshan Academy student.

Qiu Ji has never said much, and when he saw that Yao Yan had almost eaten, he handed over the water bag again.

Yao Shi took a sip and praised: "The spring water in this mountain is really sweet. ”

"Luckily, we occupied this body of water early, and the terrain was not as good as the other waterfall here. Qiu Ji said.

His voice was already low, and the words he said made people feel very calm, and the crisp sound of the waterfall hitting the stones complemented the deep words, which was particularly intoxicating in the night.

Realizing that he was confused by the sound, Yao was embarrassed to read Chinese in his mind, picked up a small branch and drew unconsciously on the ground.

"According to the regulations, we have to get the pennant to win, we only have three days, and we have to set off early tomorrow morning. She said softly.

Wu Shiwei smacked his mouth and snorted: "But it must not be so smooth, you didn't see Cao Jian's face tonight, it was as black as the bottom of the pot, I bet that he was definitely discussing how to deal with us tomorrow at this time." ”

Qiu Ji pondered for a moment, "Although they have no food and grass, there are also a lot of game and wild fruits in this mountain, and they will not be left without food." ”

Wu Shiwei muttered: "Wasn't the area around the other waterfall cleaned up by us?"

All the fruit they could pick was plucked, and all the hares they could be picked up, and even if they were to find something to eat, there was nothing to be found in the vicinity. ”

"That's why we have to be even more vigilant, they can't find food, so they naturally set their eyes on us. Yao added.

Wu Shiwei shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "Anyway, the rations are on everyone's backs, so I am not afraid." ”

"Sleep, it's not too early. Qiu Ji said warmly to Yao.

Yao Xi was also feeling sleepy, nodded, and looked at the others again. Everyone picked up hay and spread it on the ground casually to sleep, although they brought blankets when they came, but it was already cold in this forest, and it was only early spring, so it was naturally cold, so they were all huddled together.

She had also laid her own floor, and could not sleep next to anyone else, so the place near the fire was left to her.

"Come here. Qiu Ji beckoned at her.

Yao Yan was puzzled, but still walked over: "What's the matter?"

"You sleep here. Qiu Ji pointed to the place where he had been laying for a long time, it was very neat, with a thick layer and a blanket on the surface.

Yao Xi was a little embarrassed: "I'll sleep on my side, you can sleep here." ”

Qiu Ji looked at Wu Shiwei, who was already lying down on Yao Shi's side, and couldn't help but pull Yao Shi to sit down, "This place is spacious, you sleep here, I'm not far from you." ”

Wu Shiwei sat up again, walked over with his blanket, and sighed: "If it's really spacious enough, the night is deep and heavy, don't be so particular, you both sleep next to each other, I don't have to be cold alone." ”

As he spoke, he lay down straight, moved left and right, and said with a smile: "Brother Qiu really does things properly, and it is very comfortable to sleep, you rest early, and I will sleep first." Then he put the blanket over his head and did not move.

Yao Yan quietly glanced at Qiu Ji's face, probably backlit, otherwise it looked a little dark.

She smiled, "That.... Don't worry about me, I don't pay much attention to going out, I want to take the county exam, don't I still eat and live with men, don't hinder... Affair.... Son...."

Seeing Qiu Ji looking at herself, her eyes were a little deeper than the night, she coughed dryly, "Go to bed early, Ming'er has to get up early, and this blanket..."

She wanted Qiu Ji to take the blanket up and cover it, after all, it was night, and it was easy to catch a cold.

Qiu Ji didn't wait for her to finish, lay down next to Wu Shiwei, pulled the blanket that the latter covered his head, and pulled half of it to cover himself.

Wu Shiwei almost didn't shout, but he endured it before he endured it: "Brother Qiu, what are you doing with my quilt?"

"You slept in my bunk, and it is not too much for me to cover your quilt. Qiu Ji lightly put down his words, and fell asleep with his eyes closed.

Yao Yan hesitated slightly, but still lay down next to Qiu Ji, and then put his blanket on his head, revealing only two big grape-like eyes, staring at one place in a daze.

The night was so quiet that even the insects had slept, except for the crackling of the firewood burning in the fire, and the barely audible sound of breathing on his side.

Yao Xi felt that this felt very wonderful, since she left Xiaotou Village, she had experienced a lot of things along the way, but there was only one thing, these people around her had never changed, they were always there.

She is not yet of age, and the days ahead will be long, and the road in the future will definitely not be easy, but if there are these people around all the time, she is also very grateful.

If.... It would be nice if we could keep doing this.

In the middle of the night, Qiu Ji woke up, looked to the side, smiled helplessly, and then reached out and pulled down the blanket that Yao Yan had covered his head, revealing a small head.

The sleeping Yao Yan looked as well-behaved as a baby, without his usual sincerity and strength, and he looked particularly cute.

He looked at the beautiful and serene face, and felt that his heart had never been so peaceful as it had been at this moment.

Even if it's just a moment of peace, I'm going to keep you. Even if the road ahead is difficult, I will protect you.

He made a promise softly, in his heart, looked at Yao Xi with a smile, and closed his eyes slightly.
