"Are you tired? Why don't I get some for you?"

Seeing Zhang Chen looking at her, Liu Qing opened his mouth to ask.

Zhang Chen wanted to shake his head and say no: "Sister, you really don't look like a person who often sits in the office, and the speed and physical strength of this mountain climb are also good." ”

"I exercised regularly, and I lived in the mountains with my mother when I was a child, so I knew some climbing skills. ”

When the word mother was mentioned, Zhang Chen could clearly feel the grief in Liu Qing's eyes.

Could it be that her mother is gone?

Just when Zhang Chen was thinking so, Liu Qing had already begun to change the topic: "What about me, aren't you the same, carrying so many things, walking for so long, your face is not red and you are not panting, you are simply an iron man." ”

"I don't want to behave well, so as not to be looked down upon by beautiful women, in fact, I am quite tired. ”

Zhang Chen subconsciously replied with such a sentence, and after speaking, he himself wondered how he could be so frivolous.

However, Liu Qing didn't care about his words at this time, but pointed not far away.

"Zhang Chen, come here, you see how beautiful it is there, how about we have a picnic there?"

Zhang Chen looked in the direction of her hand, only to see a clear stream winding between the long vines in the dense forest, jumping between the rugged rocks, the turbulent water slapped on the rocks, surging white waves, and with the breeze blowing, there was even a trace of fragrance.

If you look closely, it turns out that there are still a few white flowers between the stream and the gap between the stones, and the fragrance is emitted by those flowers.

"Okay, just go wherever you want. ”

Zhang Chen is also very satisfied here, because there is a large flat land on the side of the stream, which is just right to rest, and there is a stream on the side, but you can take water at any time, and look at the growth of those flowers, there is no damage.

It means that there are no wild animals in this place, and it is definitely no problem to set up a tent to rest here.

Finding a dry place, the two worked together to set up the tent.

Due to thirst, Liu Qing actually picked up a bottle of mineral water directly, walked to the creek and poured a bottle, drank a few sips, and closed his eyes and tasted: "It's a familiar taste." ”

Isn't it just a bottle of mountain spring water? Could it be that there are other stories?

Zhang Chen looked at Liu Qing's exaggerated expression of enjoyment, coupled with the backdrop of nature, he suddenly felt in a trance.

Liu Qing doesn't seem to be Liu Qing at this time, but the darling of nature, an ethereal fairy who is not contaminated with everything in the world.

Even Zhang Chen wanted this moment to become eternal, he really didn't want to destroy such a natural, natural beauty of man and nature.

But the stomach was not angry at this time, and there was a grunting dissatisfaction.

I was very reluctant to glance at Liu Qing a few more times, and then I went to find a stone and set up a simple stove.

I picked up some branches and weeds and put them in the simple stove.

After washing the pot in the creek and filling the bottle with some water, he returned to the stove, put the pot on it, lit the fire and began to cook.

"Brother, don't you want to barbecue?"

In Liu Qing's impression, picnics are generally barbecue-based, so he was a little surprised to see Zhang Chen boiling water.

Zhang Chen looked back with a smile: "Sister, I'll make water first and then go to catch a few fish, make a wild fish soup, and then grill something, there is soup and barbecue, and it will be comfortable to eat." ”

"I didn't expect you to be quite thoughtful. ”

When Liu Qing spoke, Zhang Chen had already prepared the seasonings such as chopped green onions, garlic, peppercorns, and spices for making fish soup, and finished cooking the pot, and then put the water he had just drawn into it.

I didn't expect this kid to be quite proficient in this set of cooking procedures.

Liu Qing looked at Zhang Chen, secretly satisfied in his heart, and even looked forward to the surprise of this picnic.

"Sister, don't look at it, I'll go hunt a few fish. ”

Zhang Chen saw Liu Qing staring at his side, and wanted to tease her, pointing to the branches on the side: "You slowly put these branches into the fire, and don't let the fire go out before I come back." ”

"Good. ”

Zhang Chen thought that Liu Qing would be embarrassed, but to his surprise, Liu Qing agreed very happily, and after coming over, he did not dislike the dirty branches, but added firewood in a decent way.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Zhang Chen would never have thought that such an elegant woman would even be able to do this.

This woman is indeed a person with a story.

"Isn't it surprising?"

Seeing Zhang Chen looking at him stunned, Liu Qing directly guessed what he thought in his heart, and asked with a charming smile.

Zhang Chen nodded: "Indeed, I didn't expect that you are an all-rounder, you can do anything, sister." ”

Liu Qing smiled, with a happy smile on her face: "When I was a child, I lived with my mother, she cooked, and I lit a fire, so I still have a little experience in making fires." ”

"Auntie must be very good to you. ”

"She is a great mother, I remember when I was a child, I was kissed by a boy once, and my mother told me that a girl's small mouth is the most precious, and a boy must not be allowed to kiss casually. ”

"I really envy that boy. ”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Qing's head was full of black lines, and he couldn't chat happily, so he directly threw the branch in his hand at Zhang Chen: "Get out." ”

"Hey, hey. ”

Zhang Chen avoided the branches and laughed twice, and ran towards the river.

He actually saw that Liu Qing fell into memories again, and his mood began to be low, so he deliberately gaged to change the topic.

Although Liu Qing didn't say it, Zhang Chen also saw by observing Liu Qing that today's day should be very special for her, and she didn't want to see Liu Qing sad.

Soon Zhang Chen beat several pure natural fish, removed the scales and internal organs, washed them, cut them, and then put them in the pot.

Then he lit a fire and started a simple barbecue to get some other dishes.

In this way, the two worked together for almost an hour, and a hearty lunch was ready.

Sitting in the land of mountains and rivers, eating delicious food and drinking high-end red wine brought, both of them had happy smiles on their faces.

"I didn't expect that your little guy is really good. ”

Scooping up a piece of fish meat with a spoon, chewing and swallowing it carefully, Liu Qing boasted.

"That is, we were imperial chefs in our last life. ”

Zhang Chen laughed and joked, which made Liu Qing giggle.

"Then I would like to thank Imperial Chef Zhang for making so many delicious dishes on my birthday. ”

Liu Qing was happy, plus drank some wine, and directly blurted out the reason why Zhang Chen was with her today.

"Being able to accompany a beautiful woman like Sister Liu for her birthday is simply a blessing from her previous life. ”

Zhang Chen had just finished speaking, when he suddenly heard the sound of a bird being frightened and rushing into the sky from the woods not far away, and he couldn't help frowning.

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Chen instinctively felt that something was wrong, and Liu Qing was obviously worse in this regard, so he asked.

"Someone is coming, let's be careful. ”

Zhang Chen reminded Liu Qing that when he saw him so solemn, he didn't care: "Don't be so nervous, maybe it's a nearby hunting villager." ”

Just as the two were talking, a man wearing peasant clothes but holding a **** ran not far away, only to see him running to the two in a little panic, and shouted in the local dialect: "Run, run, there are blind bears here." ”

Just when the two were in a circle, the man had already rushed to the front of the two, and this time shouted in jerky Mandarin: "Run, the blind bear will chase after you immediately." ”

"Bear blind?"

Zhang Chen was stunned, and Liu Qing was also frightened to get up, grabbing Zhang Chen's arm and preparing to flee.

Seeing Liu Qing get up, a gleam flashed in the man's eyes.

Then pretending to be unsteady on his feet, he fell towards Liu Qing, and at the same time as he fell, the shotgun in his hand was taken out of his hand, and a sharp dagger leaked out of his cuff, and he quickly took it in his hand and stabbed it directly into Liu Qing's heart.

This man is dark-skinned and ordinary-looking, the type that is hard to find even if thrown into a pile.

Zhang Chen didn't have much suspicion of his appearance, but when he opened his mouth, he said that there was a blind bear here, and he looked anxious, which made Zhang Chen a little more vigilant.

Especially when Zhang Chen saw the man's palm, he found that there were more calluses, but the position of the calluses did not look like a farmer, so Zhang Chen was a little more vigilant about him.

So when that guy deliberately fell to the ground, with a gleam in his eyes, Zhang Chen realized that it was not good.

I saw that the guy quickly took out the dagger from his cuff and stabbed straight at Liu Qing's heart, obviously he wanted to kill the woman with a knife.

"Damn it. ”

It was too late to stop it, Zhang Chen couldn't help but curse, pulled Liu Qing behind him, and reached out to grab the guy's wrist at the same time.

He wanted to knock out the opponent's dagger, but what Zhang Chen didn't expect was that at the moment when he stretched out his hand, the killer had already changed the direction of the attack and stabbed directly at his throat.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Chen realized that the purpose of this killer was not Liu Qing from the beginning, but himself.

At the critical moment, without much thought, Zhang Chen directly stretched out his hand to block his throat not far away.

The dagger's powerful penetrating power directly pierced his palm.

Blood rushed out from Zhang Chen's palm like a fine spring.

The tablecloth on the ground and the small white flower next to it were instantly stained red with blood.

The killer didn't expect that the assassination attempt, which had been captured, would fail.

And the ruthlessness and decisiveness of the young man in front of him were completely beyond his imagination, and his pupils couldn't help shrinking.

"No wonder the other party wants to spend a lot of money to buy his life, and he will pay it back when he grows up in the future. ”

The killer thought to himself, quickly drew his dagger, and prepared to launch a second attack.

But at the moment when he pulled out the dagger, Zhang Chen had already kicked out, hitting the guy's life.

This kick contained all the strength of Zhang Chen at this time, and the pain could be imagined, the killer fell directly to the ground, and the pain made him roll vigorously.

As the guy fell to the ground, the dagger was drawn.

The severe pain made Zhang Chen let out a scream of pain.

Liu Qing on the side picked up the boiling fish soup next to him and smashed it directly at the killer.

The double pain made the killer regain some senses, and seeing that his hand was pierced, Zhang Chen had already picked up a stone and walked towards him.

He knew that this assassination had failed, and if he continued to consume it, he was afraid that he would be in trouble, and he didn't care about the pain, so he got up and ran.

Maybe the fish soup was too hot, or maybe it was a route he had arranged a long time ago, in short, after running more than ten meters, he jumped directly into the river.

Watching the killer leave, Zhang Chen breathed a sigh of relief and threw away the stone in his hand.

"Zhang Chen, how are you?"

Liu Qing took out a tissue from his bag to wipe Zhang Chen's blood, and anxiously took out his mobile phone to call an ambulance.

"Sister, I didn't expect you to have a time when your IQ is in arrears. ”

In order to relieve his nervousness, Zhang Chen said with a smile: "There is no signal on the mountain at all. ”

Just as Zhang Chen was speaking, Liu Qing's mobile phone came with a prompt tone that could not be connected for the time being.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, let's hurry to the hospital. ”

After finishing speaking, he helped Zhang Chen and began to walk down the mountain, and everything on it was too late to pack up.

"Sister, just send me to the revitalization clinic. ”

Zhang Chen was anxious as soon as he heard that he went to the hospital, this was a penetrating injury, and he had to invite the police for interrogation when he went to a big hospital, he didn't want this matter to be extraneous, so that the mastermind behind the scenes knew that he was alert.

Of course, another point is that he is worried about the mastermind behind the scenes, and he will attack himself in the hospital, so no matter how he thinks about it, it is safest to go back to the villa.

Ten fingers connected to the heart, Zhang Chen was extremely painful, after saying these few words, his face had become extremely pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans fell.

"No, you have to go to a regular hospital. ”

Liu Qing didn't work the paper towel at all, directly tore a piece of Zhang Chen's T-shirt, wrapped his hand around him, and helped him walk down the mountain.

"Really ...... to go to the clinic"

Zhang Chen still wanted to speak, but he felt a pain in the back of his neck, and then fainted.
