Outside the tent, there was movement.

It wasn't the first time I've felt this kind of thing that night, and at first someone walked past me. At first, I thought it was someone patrolling the camp, but gradually I realized that it was not.

The man's footsteps were so light that they were like trotting, and in two or three steps they flashed outside my tent.

Later, again, until the third time, I had to notice that it was so strange that it was unusually slender and soft, but it was extremely agile, and it was clearly not human.

By the third time it flashed out of my tent, I had sat up and listened to what was going on. Suddenly it stood outside the tent, and stood still, and its shadow was reflected in my tent by the candle flame that had been shining all night in the camp outside the tent, and it was very terrible.

It's really coming for me?

Now it's outside the tent, probably still watching me. I knew I was inside, so it stood there watching me, not moving, it was useless to hide, and I was really curious what it was, so I stood up quietly, and stood in front of its shadow in the tent without lighting the candle on the table.

Its shadow was large, half the height of my body, and I calmed down, trying to feel it for what it really was.

But all of a sudden, it moved. Want to go? I saw that it was not in the right situation, so I rushed out of the tent directly, and chased it in the direction it had just fled, and before I could take two steps, I met Gao Yonghe and the guards patrolling the camp.

"Miss Neon, what's wrong with you, why are you in a hurry?" Gao Yong suddenly saw me and was slightly startled.

"It's too late to explain." I said, "Did you just see anyone go before me?" ”

"People? No one has ever passed. We just came from patrolling all the way over there, and if anyone passes, we'll definitely see it, don't worry, girl. Gao Yong was confused by my words, but he understood that I had seen some uninvited guests enter the camp.

If it weren't a person standing outside my tent just now, Gao Yong and the others would definitely not have noticed it. I didn't care about anything else, I left Gao Yong and the others in a daze, and continued to follow the trace of the thing just now, and I could feel the breath it left all the way, and brought me straight out of the camp, getting closer and closer to it, I couldn't help muttering in my heart, its intention to attract me was too obvious.

Thinking in my heart, I instinctively raised my vigilance, and the Fengming Sword I held in my hand was already slightly unsheathed, ready for battle at any time.

The steps slowed down, one step at a time, and I approached the strange place where the breath grew heavier and heavier. I feel that it is there, but I feel that something is wrong, if it is there, how can it leave such a heavy breath for me to perceive?

Sure enough, after I stepped into a maple forest, I finally found "it" among several maple trees. A feral cat stabbed behind a tree with a dagger. It's dead, it looks a little old, and it's the breath that led me all the way here, but it's been killed here for at least half a day.

In this way, what stands outside my tent should not be it.

I was a little frightened at the moment, and suddenly came back to my senses, and suddenly, Changhong was forced by a daylight to come in a hurry, I flashed slightly, fortunately I just reacted quickly, otherwise the daylight would really be in a different place.

But when I looked closely, there was not even a shadow of the man who suddenly attacked me.

It's hiding again? I was now completely sure that the man who had struck me in the light of daylight was the one who was outside my tent, and that it had led me here with the scent of a dead wild cat, and that it had been hiding and not daring to come out, and that it had secretly attacked me.

I think it didn't dare to show its face openly, probably because it was afraid of being recognized by me, and if so, it must be someone I know.

Since this breath is not necessarily left by it, it may not be a demon, but it may also be a talent.

But what kind of person is trying to harm me here?

Until after that move just now, the person hiding in the shadows did not move for a long time, I don't know if it really stopped there, or if he was waiting for an opportunity again. I don't know what it came about, and I don't dare to let up.

Faintly, I heard footsteps from far and near, and it was obvious that it was a person, and I could lighten the footsteps, just as I had stepped into this maple forest when I first stepped into it. It's just a little urgent, and it's a lot different from the one that attacked me.

When he approached, I saw that it was Yuan Jue who had arrived.

When I saw him, I flickered for a moment, but soon came to my senses, and still cautiously watched my surroundings. "Why are you here?"

"Gao Yong saw that you left the camp in a hurry, and thought that you must have something, so he didn't worry, so he came to sue me." After Yuan Jue noticed my caution, he also carefully noticed the changes around him, "What happened?" ”

"I don't know." It's only when I see him now that I feel a little relieved. "Someone deliberately lured me here from the big camp."

"Can you see the man's face?" Yuan Jue's gaze fell on me, and suddenly his face changed, "Are you injured?" ”

As soon as he spoke, I noticed a bloody mark on my left arm, "It may have been the wound that the man had just taken when he attacked me with a white light." ”

I was too nervous all the time, and I was wary of what might happen around me, so I didn't find out that I was hurt. Fortunately, the injury was not severe, and it should have been bruised when I hid just now.

"Don't move yet." Yuan Jue admonished, then leaned over, tore off the hem of his clothes with a hiss, and came to help me.

"I'm fine!" I hurriedly explained, not to mention that I don't know where the person hiding in the shadows is yet, in case it suddenly comes out, we can't be unprepared at all, just by the moment it just happened, I thought it would definitely not be weak.

"Don't move." Yuan Jue helped me sit down, gave me a sharp warning, and then raised my arm and carefully wrapped the placket of my shirt. "Don't worry, he didn't show up for half a day, I think he would have left a long time ago."

"Gone?" I blurted out, but instead I thought about it, how could Yuan Jue know what I was worried about.

"Although I don't know why he brought you here from the camp, but I think that after he tried his best to sneak attack you once, he found that there was no way to bargain from you, and he would definitely not make a rash move again, he has not moved for half a day, and he should have left." Yuan Jue said, bandaging my wound properly, looking up at me, his very sure look made me slowly relax my guard.

"Maybe." Maybe that trick was really used with all its might, and if so, I'm afraid that at that moment, this person was going to kill me with one blow. It's just that it didn't expect to be avoided by me, if it heard Yuan Jue's voice coming again at this time...... "But, why yourself, what about them?" ”

Why didn't Vice General Qiao and the others protect Yuan Jue with them, not to mention whether I was really brought here by someone for some reason, how could they rest assured that Yuan Jue would come alone.

"Gao Yong went to inform them, I didn't worry about you, so I rushed over first." Yuan Jue looked at me as if he suddenly remembered what he said that day, he suddenly lowered his eyes, and said an extremely simple and calm sentence.

Looking at the messiness of his sideburns, I think he must have been terrified when he heard the news that I had chased me out of the camp, and I could think of the anxiety he must have been when he was looking for me.

Up to this moment, I was sitting in front of him, he was half-kneeling in front of me, he had just bandaged my wound, and he was still not breathing evenly, revealing his complete uneasiness at that time.

"Fool." I comforted him, "I'm much better than you, and if I can't handle it, you'll just die for nothing." Next time, don't be so abrupt. ”

As I spoke, I reached for his sideburns.

Yuan Jue was still half-kneeling, one hand on the ground, one hand clasped my hand behind my back, and covered my hand on his face.

At this moment, I wish that time had stopped like this, forever and ever.

"Where's your shoes?" When Yuan Jue lowered his head, he saw my bare feet and asked puzzledly.

I looked down and like, really, where are my shoes? It seems that he was not wearing it when he chased him out of the camp. "Maybe I was in too much of a hurry when I chased it out, so I forgot to put on my shoes at all."

Yuan Jue listened to my words, frowned slightly at first, and then sighed helplessly. He reached out and grabbed my ankle and smoothed the dirt off the soles of my feet, the bells on my ankles making a crisp sound.

"Come on." He turned and crouched down with his back to me. "I'll carry you back."

I hesitated for a moment, lay on his shoulder, Yuan Jue got up lightly, and walked in the direction of the camp with me on his back.

"You can't even take care of yourself, and you dare to chase others." He said as he walked. "If you encounter such a situation in the future, don't be so reckless, not everyone in this world is as schemless as you."

"Are you calling me stupid?" I was telling him just now, but now it's the other way around.

"How so, could anyone be smarter than you?" Yuan Jue complimented me in a low voice. "It's just that being smart and scheming are two different things, being smart doesn't necessarily hurt people, but people who can trick themselves into harming others are not necessarily smart people."

When I heard this, I fell silent, and I understood what he said.

It's just that these words put me in the bottom of my heart, and the things about ten years ago came out little by little, and the fate of Yiqiē seemed to have changed strangely because of my self-cleverness ten years ago.

"Why don't you speak?" Although Yuan Jue can't see me, he can hear my sighs.

"I thought I was too stupid." Ten years ago, it seems that nothing has changed at all after ten years, and the déjà vu in fate has undergone earth-shaking changes, but I am still stunned and not adapted to the human world at all.

"You're not stupid," Yuan Jue slowed down and corrected me. "You just don't understand human nature."

I don't understand human nature......

This time, we were all silent.

If you don't understand human nature, you don't understand the darkness and nature of human beings, human beings have seven emotions and six desires and I don't have them. Humans laugh and cry, but I don't even have tears, I don't understand the greed and lust of human beings, just as I can't understand their love.

But in fact, I also want to be humane. If I have humanity, can I also be like a human being, understand what selfish desires are, and understand that I can give up a qiē worth for myself and my feelings?

From the moment on, I even had a small expectation, hoping that I could give up my desire to cultivate into a god's body, and become an ordinary person, stay by his side, love and stay with him, and learn many things in the world.

"This ...... What's going on? ”

Yuan Jue walked back to the camp with me on his back, Vice General Qiao and others just happened to meet him, when he first saw this scene, he probably thought I was injured, so he seemed a little nervous, but when he found that Yuan Jue was still very calm, Vice General Qiao slowly stopped and followed us to the camp.

When I arrived outside my tent, I met Hou Yue again, and Hou Yue suddenly came forward in a panic, but was pulled aside by Deputy General Qiao, and everyone stopped outside the tent, Yuan Jue carried me into the tent and put it on the bed.

Sure enough, my shoes were sitting next to the bed, and I was in a hurry to get out. But at this time, it would be too embarrassing if I didn't say anything, and I pointed to the place where the shadow was just reflected in the tent, "When I was resting on the top of the tent, a shadow came by my tent several times, and then its shadow stopped there, so I was in too much hurry to chase it out, so I didn't put on my shoes." ”

I wasn't used to wearing shoes before, so I just wore them to fit in the way of human beings and not to look so special. Actually, I wore shoes just enough to cover the bell on my ankle, so even if someone heard the sound, but couldn't see it, I wouldn't think it was a sound from me.

"Alright." Yuan Jue leaned down and put his shoes on my feet. "Don't forget to put on your shoes in the future, be careful that your feet are pricked."

No, I used to be in the mountains, and I didn't get pierced with so many rocks or something. It's just that I didn't say it, and what I'm saying now feels a little weird.

"Second son." Gao Yong shouted outside the tent.

Yuan Jue turned around, thought for a while and said to me, "You wait a minute, I'll go out and have a look." He got up, then stopped without taking two steps out, and said emphatically, "If you hear any movement again, don't be reckless and break out alone, I'm outside, you just call me." ”

After he finished speaking, he lifted the curtain of the tent and went out.

I muttered to his last instructions, "I didn't know who it was before, I didn't see anyone for a few days, and now I blame me for not calling him." ”

"Oh?" Unexpectedly, at this time, Yuan Jue opened the curtain again and came back, clearly heard my complaint, hesitated, but still pretended to be flat, "Gao Yong has something to tell you." ”

As he spoke, Yuan Jue let Gao Yong follow him into the tent.

"Niyin girl, there is a woman who has come to the camp and said that she is looking for you." Gao Yong still looked at Yuan Jue from time to time, as if he was very embarrassed.

Woman? Looking for me?

"Who is it?" I asked.

"She said, her name is Jialan." (To be continued.) )
