"What do you want?" Suddenly, a voice came from his ears, which frightened Ning Yuanru's soul and almost screamed. The person who came seemed to be familiar with the abnormality, and reached out to cover Ning Yuanru's small mouth.

Ling Chen laughed when he saw this: "Why do you like to shrink in the bushes when you have nothing to do." In this situation, Ling Chen immediately thought of when he first came here, when he saw Ning Yuanru hiding in the grass and shivering, he grabbed her like a chicken and ran away.

Ning Yuanru seemed to be a little angry, and opened her mouth to bite Ling Chen's hand. Ling Chen was in pain for a while, but Ning Yuanru was no better, and when he bit down, he actually gnawed a mouthful of mud, and it turned out that Ling Chen's hands were stuck with a thick layer of mud.

Why is this person so unhygienic...

Ling Chen couldn't help laughing, and Ning Yuanru's mood gradually calmed down after the initial embarrassment. A man squatted on the side, bowing his head to himself and saying nothing.

Ling Chen just wanted to make a joke to liven up the awkward atmosphere between the two of them, and now he felt that the atmosphere was even more awkward. The pain in his right hand became more and more obvious, the blood under the skin had gathered into a lump, purple and red, and with the spasm of the ear muscles caused by the pulling of his body, Ling Chen knew that he had to start dealing with it quickly.

"Yuan Ru. Ling Chen called Ning Yuanru very seriously, but Ning Yuanru didn't seem to respond. "Come and help me. ”

Hearing this, Ning Yuanru got up and walked to Ling Chen's side. There was no other indication on her face, and the little girl looked very calm, as if something had just happened to her. Ling Chen didn't care if she was really entangled in the previous embarrassing atmosphere, and took out four or five wooden sticks that had been sharded and a piece of silk, which was torn from her long robe. The only time after Ling Chen arrived here did he feel that the silk caftan could be of some practical use in addition to being in the way.

"Will it be bone-straight?" Ling Chen asked.

Ning Yuanru shook his head. The sky was dark before, and Ling Chen left suddenly, so Ning Yuanru didn't have time to check if Ling Chen was injured. It was only at this time that she realized that Ling Chen's other hand had been hanging down. "Is it a fracture?" A sudden panic in his heart, Ning Yuanru began to carefully examine Ling Chen.

Due to the rain, the soil and leaves are wet, so the clothes are stained with a lot of mud and dead branches and leaves, and the neat and white hospital uniform can only be vaguely distinguished on Ling Chen's body at this time, and the word neat can no longer be properly described.

"Just hold my hand down, and I should be able to pull it back. Ling Chen pointed to his elbow and motioned for Ning Yuanru to hold it down. The fractured part is the forearm of the right hand, Ling Chen endured the pain and groped it before, there should only be a fracture, and the situation is not too bad.

Ning Yuanru frowned slightly, and the sadness in her eyes could no longer be concealed. But she didn't say anything, and as Ling Chen instructed, she used all her strength to press Ling Chen's arm to the ground. A trace of helplessness welled up on Ling Chen's face, and then he took a deep breath, and his eyes became fierce and resolute.

Slowly groping with his left hand to find the right position, Ling Chen's left hand turned into a palm, and he suddenly slapped down with his strength. I only heard a "click", and the arm should have recovered. Ling Chen gritted his teeth hard, his lips closed, and his eyes were wide open like copper bells, with a hint of evil spirit. In just a moment, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his throat was humming, but he never screamed. He curled up his body and buried his head deep in the ground, as if he were convulsive.

After a moment of severe pain, Ling Chen gradually eased up. Ning Yuanru always stood aside, without much verbal concern, just silently wrapped the branches and silk on the side on her arm, and then tied them tightly together to correct the position of bone healing. Ling Chen didn't move, quietly waiting for Ning Yuanru to be bandaged. Ning Yuanru's hands were very slender and his movements were slow, but they were very delicate.

After a moment, Ning Yuanru breathed a sigh of relief. He nodded with a smile and said, "Okay." ”

At this point, the pain was not as severe as before, and the arm could exert a little more strength. Ling Chen examined the bandaging effect, nodded with great satisfaction, and praised, "Not bad, wow! I think you can learn medicine in the future." Ling Chen had a whim and said casually.

"Okay. Ning Yuanru knelt on the side and smiled lightly. At this time, although there is rain on the ground, the skirt under your feet is already soaked, so you don't have to care. But the person who said this didn't care too much, just thought that Ning Yuanru agreed casually to him.

Most of the fractures have been resolved, just wait for tomorrow to pick some herbs to reduce swelling and relieve pain, and Ling Chen is embarrassed to let Ning Yuanru help deal with the bruises on his back. The pain is bearable, so you don't have to worry about it for the time being. Calling Ning Yuanru, Ling Chen took her to a big tree. Clean up a little and remove the fallen leaves to reveal the turf.

"I can only spend the night here. Ling Chen said a little helplessly.

Ning Yuanru nodded lightly and knelt to the side.

There was also a handful of dry firewood in the storage ring, and there was also the pine resin collected before, Ling Chen just gave Wang Qingyun the guy who was eating, and he still kept some of these trivial things. Every time Ling Chen sighs, his storage ring is indeed much more convenient, not only the weight is not strong, but the space is also very large, which is the conclusion obtained by comparing their Qiankun bags. The second uncle left him only a set of yards, a storage ring, and a rusty sword.

Leafy firewood was lit and pine resin was added, and in a few moments, the bonfire was blazing. It doesn't hurt to add some drenched firewood at this point. Fire always makes people feel happy, and Ling Chen was slightly relieved at this time. Fortunately, the beast corpse in the storage ring is still there, so the two of them will have a barbecue tonight.

After greeting Ning Yuanru, Ling Chen took out a large piece of meat from the storage ring and prepared to untie the knife and barbecue. Helplessly, the right hand is broken, and it is really inconvenient to cut the meat with a knife in the left hand. Ning Yuanru took the initiative to take the dagger and cut off two large pieces of meat, and then untied the knife into several small pieces. He cut a few wooden sticks from a branch, put the meat on it, and put it by the fire and roasted it. Ling Chen laughed a little uncomfortably, in the past, he did all this, but now he is resting as a sick person, being taken care of by a little girl, he always feels a little uncomfortable.

Everything is pretty much cleaned up, just waiting for time for the meat to be cooked. Although it is the height of spring, it will still be a little cold at night, and it will be rainy for both days. Occasionally, the breeze blows, and I feel that the pain and depression in my body have been alleviated a lot. The bonfire is blazing, and there is a lot of dry firewood on the side, so I am not afraid of running out of firewood. From time to time, the firewood crackled and sparks burst out. Ning Yuanru gently lifted her skirt and dried it in front of the fire. Ling Chen also silently looked at the fire in front of him in a daze, and the atmosphere seemed a little silent for a while.

"You, do you still miss her?" Ning Yuanru suddenly burst out with a sentence. It was very quiet in the dark night, so although Ning Yuanru said this sentence very abruptly, Ling Chen heard it accurately.

"Who?" Ling Chen was stunned, a little unconscious. Ning Yuanru's words pulled back his thoughts from wandering in the world.

"Xiao Zi Soul. Ning Yuanru did not hesitate in his words, and in the dark, his clear eyes looked very bright.

Hearing this, Ling Chen's heart suddenly paused.

"Why did you mention her all of a sudden?"

With a relaxed smile on his face, he seemed to be unconcerned, but somehow, his mood suddenly became a little heavy.

"What you're doing all this for her?" Ning Yuanru put down the skirt in her hand and put her hands on her cheeks.

"What are you referring to?" Ling Chen was interested. He didn't know how Ning Yuanru knew about the matter between him and Xiao Zisoul, because there was no her at that time.

"You want to enter the four courtyards so hard, and you work so hard to save us. The eyelashes blinked slightly, and in the fire-lit eyes, Ning Yuanru looked at Ling Chen with a slight smile.

"No. Ling Chen paused, "Of course, it's also because of you." I'm not going to watch you die in front of me one by one. "In such a dangerous place, I don't know what tomorrow will be. Ever since that day and Wang Qingyun had seen that hellish scene, he had been having nightmares for several days. Seeing that one by one his companions had left him, and he couldn't do anything about it. So he had to take them as far away from that place as possible.

"So it's because of us, for her?" Ning Yuanru said.

Ling Chen was stunned for a moment, to be honest, he didn't understand what this sentence meant, and he didn't know how to answer. There was silence for a moment, turning over the meat that was being roasted, and continuing to be silent.

"Actually, we can do better together. Ning Yuanru pursed her lips and said.

"Hmm. Ling Chen nodded in agreement. "I've seen it all today. Every aspect of life, although the time is short, I think you have all learned about it. ”

"You're working hard. You take everything on your own. You have also taught us a lot, but you still have to take care of many things by yourself. Ning Yuanru paused, wanted to continue, opened his mouth, but stopped again.

"With great power comes great responsibility. After a pause, Ling Chen said again: "Actually, I also want someone to stand up and help me and take over the mess of my body; However, I don't feel at ease. One by one, you don't realize how serious the problem is, how can I rest assured that you are going to do something else. Here, lives will be lost at every turn. Ling Chen was smiling, laughing casually and bitterly. Perhaps only he can understand the bitterness in it.

Obviously, Ling Chen probably misunderstood something, Ning Yuanru just wanted him not to resist all things alone, but to be good at sharing and sharing with them.

"Actually, you don't have a stone of rice at all, do you?" Seeing that Ling Chen didn't understand the meaning of his words, Ning Yuanru no longer grasped the topic, and said to Ling Chen bluntly.

She thought that Ling Chen would be a little surprised, but Ling Chen didn't. Ling Chen nodded generously and acknowledged. This made Ning Yuanru a little surprised, could it be that he had been paying attention to himself? Somehow, there was a sudden sweetness in his heart. Just like the sprouts that sprout in the middle of spring, the sweet and greasy thoughts of the girl also have a hint of ripples. But none of this can be shown on Ning Yuanru's face, at a young age, he has cultivated a restrained body, which is really incredible.

"Lao Yun said early on that you might know, and now it seems that it is true. You're very observant," Ling Chen exclaimed.

"Wang Qingyun. Ning Yuanru muttered slightly. I thought about it a little, but I came back to my senses in a blink of an eye.

"After drinking porridge for so many days in a row, if you think about it, you can see that it is because of the lack of food. Ning Yuanru said.

"Well, not necessarily. Ling Chen suddenly retorted, "I can bet with you that Qingyu doesn't know." This Nizi is the most heartless, what you say she will feel. Ling Chen laughed and teased Wang Qingyu.

Ning Yuanru also smiled and agreed with Ling Chen's statement. The personalities of everyone in the team are very clear, except for Ling Yue, who has just joined. Sometimes mentioning some characteristics of another person obviously makes the atmosphere of the chat much more relaxed.

Ling Chen continued to flip the meat, and Ning Yuanru looked at him quietly. At this moment, the skirt under his feet was also dry, the ground was not as wet as before, and the meat was almost ready.

"At that time, why did you jump down to save me?" Ning Yuanru asked. The casual question may be what she wants to ask the most today.

"Isn't that how it should be? If it were someone else, I would have saved him as well. Ling Chen said. It means that saving people is a matter of course, and there are no excessive reasons.

"What if it's Ling Yue?"

Ling Chen was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Ning Yuanru mentioned Ling Yue.

"Absolutely. Ling Chen nodded in affirmation.

"What about Xiao Zi Soul?" Ning Yuanru didn't pause for a series of questions, as if he had already thought about it.

Hearing this name again, a touch of irritability suddenly rose in Ling Chen's heart, probably caused by the pain of the wound. Even he didn't know why, he liked the name so much, but he was so afraid to hear it. Maybe it's coming out of someone else's mouth, or maybe it's running away from yourself.

Ling Chen didn't answer, and the subtle movements in his hands seemed to be a bit much. He was nervous, and Ning Yuanru saw it.

"Ling Chen, there are many ways to solve problems in the world. But you have to choose to escape. You are trying hard to achieve your ideals, but you are still running away from your heart. Ning Yuanru said.

She had never said so much and told a boy so much before as she did tonight. In fact, she wanted to say more, but she couldn't. She understands that there is only one person in his heart now, and she sees through his character, his heart. So she never forced him to think of anything for himself. I only hope that he can see his weaknesses clearly and understand more truths. A person can never see himself clearly, and it is not himself who knows himself best.

The unknown of the road ahead, the fear of the unknown, and the unfulfilled promise. Ling Chen didn't say anything, so Ning Yuanru wouldn't know either.

"You don't understand. Ling Chen pursed his lips and spit out such a sentence after being silent for a long time. Ling Chen had his own ideas, but he wouldn't tell anyone else what the outcome would be, but for now, he had to fulfill the promise he had made.

Hearing this, crystal tears welled up in Ning Yuanru's eyes, and her eyes were hazy for a while. The little girl blew her delicate nose, but fortunately, the tears did not fall. She was sad that she had told him so much. But he still didn't understand. Did he really not understand, or did he pretend not to understand? Or did he never have too much weight in his heart?

I know him...

"The meat is cooked. After speaking, Ling Chen handed over a few skewers of meat to Ning Yuanru. "Go to bed early after eating. ”

Ning Yuanru took the meat, and the haze in her eyes did not subside for a while, but it was not so conspicuous, at least Ling Chen didn't notice it. The barbecue is very fragrant, full of fat, soft and delicious, but Ning Yuanru tastes the same as chewing wax in his mouth. Perhaps, she should know more about Ling Chen. Or, I didn't know him all along.

After dinner, Ning Yuanru curled up sideways by the bonfire, probably gradually falling asleep. After Ling Chen confirmed it repeatedly, he carelessly removed the clothes on his upper body and used fire to bake the abrasions on the back of his spine.
