41. Hero, wait for me
It's a valley.
Now that night is approaching, the sky is close to darkness, and the surrounding mountains and vines have all turned into dark silhouettes, and nothing can be seen clearly. Occasionally, when Mo Mingzhu walked by, a night bird flew away. The night birds chirp and scream, and the hollow valley echoes, which is very poignant!
It's kind of scary.
Vigilant around, Mo Mingzhu swallowed his saliva a little nervously, picked up a dead branch stick on the ground, and hit the grass in front of him as he walked. It's damp and the grass is so thick that there might be snakes!
Snakes are cold-blooded animals that prefer to roost among damp grass in summer. Speaking of cold-blooded animals, though...... Mo Mingzhu looked at the man in front of him. Under the cover of night, only his tall and long back could be seen reflecting the dark sky over there, like the mountains and forests, turning into a dark silhouette, and occasionally a hint of wind led the tips of his hair to sway around his waist.
If you want to be cold-blooded, this man is probably the leader of all cold-blooded animals! And it's a cold-blooded snake with a beautiful appearance. Since Fang just rolled down together, the man ignored her, and walked forward on his own, no matter how she shouted, he didn't care.
Mo Mingzhu was secretly indignant. If you are the same person who has fallen to the end of the world, can't you love and help each other?
Of course, Xiao Yuchen didn't want to take care of the woman behind him, if he insisted on taking care of her, he would definitely want to slap her to death and throw her in the grass! He should have finished his healing in the cold jade pool, and then went back to a comfortable room to sleep and rest, but now he was in this deserted place, dragging a stiff and "shameless" oil bottle (between the series of things just now) to escape......
"Hero, where are you going? It's all dark...... "Mo Mingzhu stumbled, limping and struggling to follow.
“……”
"Hero? Swordsman! "Mo Mingzhu was tired of shouting, and he also shouted some anger." I can't walk anymore! ”
Xiao Yuchen paused, and after a second, he turned around to look at Mo Mingzhu - "You can also wait for death here." ”
Frightened, Mo Mingzhu looked around, only to see the silhouette of the treetops and the occasional flying night bird. "Could it be that the killer is still following?"
"Since you're a killer, how can you stop until you kill someone. If I'm not mistaken, the two of them are back to pick up a new batch of reinforcements, which means that where we are standing now, a large number of killers will soon search for our traces. Xiao Yuchen calmly analyzed. After more than ten years of battlefield life, how many times on the line of life and death, his analysis has never been wrong.
The more Mo Mingzhu listened, the more frightened he became. She thought that the two killers were going back. It turned out that the two of them didn't leave, but went to find help!
"That's why you pick up the grass so you don't leave a trail in the dirt, don't you?"
Xiao Yuchen didn't answer, but Mo Mingzhu was sure that it was like this. It rained during the day, the soil was soft, and if you walked on the path, it would definitely leave traces, and the grass was dense and tough, and it was difficult to tell where it had been walked.
This man seems to be calm and wise. Mo Mingzhu thought, didn't talk much, and followed. Although it looks cold, it doesn't seem to be bad.
Covering his chest, Xiao Yuchen forcibly held back the churning qi and blood in his heart, and the more he walked, the stiffer and more difficult his legs became. He's almost at the limit! In fact, next to the waterhole, the moment he broke his skill, the ice toad poison had almost eroded his body. After that, saving people and running away were all done by him forcibly suppressing the poisonous hair, and the more severe the suppression, the worse the stiff pain.
Sure enough, you shouldn't be in this nosy!
"You, how are you?" Mo Mingzhu also noticed that he was wrong, and hurriedly stepped forward to support Xiao Yuchen.
Being touched by a stranger, Xiao Yuchen couldn't help but shrink his arms.
Mo Mingzhu was slightly embarrassed. Could it be that this man has a habit of cleanliness of the body? It's not to stretch out your hand for a while, and it's not to withdraw your hand. Fortunately, in the next second, the man no longer resisted.
Mo Mingzhu raised his eyes, and happened to meet the man's low eyes, and the two pairs of eyes touched, as if a slight electric current flowed from his eyes to the bottom of his heart, and his heart jumped slightly. Mo Mingzhu hurriedly turned his eyes away, and suddenly felt that his breathing was a little chaotic.
Mo Mingzhu lowered his head, and Xiao Yuchen could only see the top of his delicate, furry head in the night, as if he was a little ashamed.
It's strange that when she touched her arms with both hands, he actually ...... And not disgusted. On the contrary, there is a sense of familiarity......
The original anger in Mo Mingzhu's heart dispersed when he touched this strong but very cold arm, and he became a little worried. "You, did you get poisoned?"
According to his previous personality, Xiao Yuchen wouldn't say much, especially about things like Ice Toad Poison, but with a strange sense of familiarity in his heart, he patiently replied: "No, it's just a recurrence of the old disease." You go, I'm not well, I can't walk, if you hold me, you can't escape......"
"How's that going to work!" Before Xiao Yuchen finished speaking, Mo Mingzhu interrupted and looked at him with bright eyes, "You saved me, how can I leave you!" Don't say anything like that again. ”
Xiao Yuchen was suspicious. "You're not afraid of death?"
Thinking of the killer's bright knife, Mo Mingzhu still had palpitations. "I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid of death. But I'm more afraid of your death. You saved my life, and if I forsake you, what difference will I have from an ungrateful beast! ”
As he spoke, Mo Mingzhu put Xiao Yuchen's arm on his shoulder, wanting to carry him forward.
Stunned, Xiao Yuchen was a little surprised, looking at the righteous and awe-inspiring appearance of the woman under his arm, a little funny, and ...... A slight touch? He didn't quite understand what that feeling was.
Mo Mingzhu took two steps with difficulty and found that ......
"Hero, please excuse you, you are lower, I can't help ......"
He's too tall! She couldn't stand it......
Softly curling his lips, Xiao Yuchen silently showed a hint of a smile. Mo Mingzhu was stunned, this was the first time he smiled. The sky was dark, and only an outline could be seen, but even though there was only one outline, it was enough to make people lose their souls.
No wonder, Gao Yue risked the woman's inaction, and she had to take risks to have a relationship with this person. Although this man seems to be ruthless, after these few hours of getting along, he seems to be a man who values love and righteousness and is very responsible. If he becomes his woman, he will surely provoke all that woman's possession. Just like now, they obviously didn't know each other, but after he decided to save her, although he was cold-eyed, he never left her or ignored her.
I just don't know what the identity of this man is. But looking at his lonely but cultivated temperament, as well as well-fitting clothes with high texture, Mo Mingzhu felt that he should not be an ordinary man.
Mo Mingzhu hurriedly retracted his gaze and concentrated on helping people.
Xiao Yuchen lowered his body and gently pressed a small part of his weight on Mo Mingzhu's shoulder. Afraid of pressing her, Xiao Yuchen deliberately controlled her strength. This posture of slightly bent legs is actually more strenuous than walking alone.
However, seeing this woman's "righteous and awe-inspiring" concern, he felt that he couldn't be so faceless, so he chose this more strenuous posture.
Mo Mingzhu didn't feel anything at first, but after walking for a while, he realized that something was wrong—this posture was really intimate. Her face rubbed against his chest, but fortunately he was still wearing a black dress before, otherwise it would be embarrassing if there was no cover.
Mo Mingzhu touched the texture of this garment and always felt ...... How did it look like the one she threw away when she came?
Odd......
Mo Mingzhu secretly wondered. Could it be that this man was actually a poor bastard, who picked up the clothes she threw away and put them on the road? Ignoring and ignoring, Mo Mingzhu secretly said to herself, don't let him find out, she knows that this dress was picked up by him and thrown by her, otherwise, I am afraid it will make him lose face.
……
The two of them continued to walk in the dark for a while, and thunder rolled in the sky, and lightning swept through the treetops not far in front of them, as if they were about to set the mountains and forests on fire. Earlier, the night was full of dark clouds, and now looking at the posture, there is bound to be a heavy rain tonight!
'It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and the disaster is not a one-way street! Mo Mingzhu secretly called unlucky.
Sure enough, soon, the rain of beans "crackled" and poured down, drenching the two of them.
"Ah, it's raining heavily, let's quickly find a place to hide......" Mo Mingzhu was drenched in panic.
Then, Mo Mingzhu found that she didn't seem to be drenched in the rain, and the weight on her body was light, almost nothing—it was the man who straightened up and clamped her to her waist, unable to get drenched in the rain. Although Mo Mingzhu couldn't get drenched in the rain, he was gradually wet by the rain, and felt the biting cold on this man's body! I couldn't help but feel worried.
His body, why is it so cold?
Fortunately, just as the rain was pouring, the two of them arrived at a banyan forest in the middle of the mountain forest, with intertwined roots and lush foliage, and in some places there was no rain, only a few drops of water dripping from the gaps in the lush leaves.
By the light of lightning, Mo Mingzhu saw that the roots of the banyan tree were connected to the rocks, forming a big net, and there was a cave.
"There are caves! Let's get in ......."
“……”
Mo Mingzhu and Xiao Yuchen entered the cave. The cave is not deep, barely sheltering from the rain.
"Fortunately, there is this cave to shelter from the rain." Mo Mingzhu was happy, but did not get a response. I was shocked. "Hero?"
Still no response.
"Hero?!"
It was pitch black, Mo Mingzhu could only grope with his hands, and sure enough, he touched Xiao Yuchen's cold body on the ground. Xiao Yuchen was stiff and painful, and the ice toad poison completely broke out, and he couldn't move!
"You, you're so cold!" Mo Mingzhu was a little panicked, this black light was blind, even if he wanted to save him, he couldn't save him. Taking advantage of the lightning, Mo Mingzhu glanced at the cave. And he saw a candle with ashes on the wall of the cave, and flint. There were abandoned old hunting bows and arrows, as well as some dry firewood.
It seems that this cave is where Orion hides from the rain and spends the night.
"Wait, I'll make a fire for you to keep warm."
When the fire rose, Mo Mingzhu finally saw the surroundings clearly. After so long and arduous trek in the dark, I saw the light of fire for the first time. It was as if a cluster of warmth and light had risen in my heart.
"How are you?" Mo Mingzhu hurriedly went to check on the man who fell to the ground, touched it, but jumped and hurriedly threw away his arm.
"Ahh
He was stiff, like a dead body!
He's dead?
Mo Mingzhu's heart is like a drum.
