Chapter 38: Salvation
The pain and darkness of the night were especially long. A ray of sunlight shone through the gap in the leaves and hit Jinyun's eyes.
She moved her eyes, her slender eyelashes rising and falling, and then a pair of clear, transparent eyes exposed to the sun.
Stimulated by the bright light, she shielded herself from the sun with her hands, and slowly saw everything around her through the shadows of her palms.
Jinyun tried to straighten up, but found that he was tightly wrapped in a pair of large hands and strong arms.
She looked up at Xiao Feng, the sun shining on his face, and a strand of hair scattered on one side. The handsome face was pale at this time, and there was not a trace of blood on the lips.
Jinyun shook Xiao Feng's body and called him softly, but found that Xiao Feng did not react at all. She began to panic in her heart, Xiao Feng was so seriously injured that she was frozen all night. Nothing should happen?
Jinyun raised his voice to call, but there was still no response. She reached out and touched Xiao Feng's forehead, which was as hot as fire.
If it continues to burn like this, Xiao Feng's life will definitely be in danger.
No, she definitely can't watch Xiao Feng die, she can't watch this man who has saved herself many times and loves herself die, he has already paid so much for himself, and she can't owe him any more.
Thinking of this, Jin Yun was full of strength, and used her weak body to carry Xiao Feng to move little by little. As long as you get out of the woods, there will be hope.
Jinyun exhausted all his physical strength, and finally the two collapsed by a stream.
After a long time, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old peasant girl came to the stream to wash clothes with a wooden basin in the distance. accidentally found Jinyun who asked her for help, and the two worked together to bring Xiao Feng back to the girl's home, a simple but warm farm yard.
It is located under the cliff of Baizhang, and the people are simple and isolated from the world. Every family has water, every household has flowers, and people's lives are happy.
For three days, Xiao Feng's fever finally subsided.
"Sister Jinyun, Brother Xiao, he's awake!"
The girl who rescued them was named Xue'er, and she saw that Xiao Feng finally came to her senses and yelled excitedly at Jinyun.
Xiao Feng opened his eyes and saw a woman with a delicate face looking at him with concern.
He raised his hand and gently took the woman's hand.
"Did you save me? Thank you! What is your name? ”
Xiao Feng looked at her gently, with affection in her eyes, the woman suddenly blushed, lowered her head embarrassedly, and said softly: Xue'er.
"That's good! People are also good-looking! ”
Hearing Xiao Feng say this, the woman was even more embarrassed and buried her head deeper.
Hearing Xue'er's scream, Jinyun hurriedly put down the boiled decoction and ran in.
Xue'er pulled her hand out of Xiao Feng's hand and ran out of Jinyun's side with her head down.
Jinyun saw everything in her eyes, she walked over and slapped Xiao Feng's hand before she had time to get it back.
"What? Your waist is like that, and you still want to flirt with other little girls? ”
"How? When people save us, we have to express our gratitude! ”
"Good! Why don't you stay here and make a promise when you're healed? ”
"Are you really willing?"
"Is there any reason to be reluctant?"
"Oh well! I think about it. ”
Although the two were joking, Jinyun showed that he didn't care.
"Qing'er, if I really get with someone else, will you regret it?"
Xiao Feng secretly thought in his heart, all kinds of tastes came to his heart, Qing'er, can't you love me?
As the days passed, Xiao Feng's injuries gradually improved.
He sat on the top of the hill and looked out over this beautiful little mountain village.
"Qing'er, look how beautiful this place is! Why don't we live here in seclusion and don't go back to Chang'an? ”
"Are you willing to give up your fame and fortune, glory and wealth?"
"No fame or fortune, glory and wealth are as good as your smile, as long as you are by my side, it is worth it for me to give up."
"Alright! It's not serious again, no kidding! I went to cook. ”
With that, Jinyun went down the mountain.
"I'm not kidding, I'm serious!"
Xiao Feng looked ahead and said this, but he didn't look back. He knew that Jinyun hadn't heard it, but even if he did, what could he do! Will she stay?
Before I knew it, a month had passed.
Xiao Feng is intimate with Xue'er every day, playing and making trouble, and getting along happily. Sometimes even the existence of Jinyun is overlooked.
One day, the two of them were playing by the bed, Xue'er slipped under her feet, and the two fell on the bed one after another, Xiao Feng pressed Xue'er tightly under him.
Jinyun just wanted to enter the house, and saw this scene from the door, when suddenly she felt a pain in her heart like a knife, and gently closed the door and ran to the stream alone. Her lonely and lonely back looked even more miserable under the rays of the setting sun.
Tears kept sliding down Jinyun's cheeks, and Jinyun stubbornly wiped them.
And Xiao Feng hid behind the tree and looked at her silently, his heart was a hundred times more painful than Jinyun.
"Sister Cher, do you think I can do this?"
"Brother Xiao! Seeing her so sad, you should know that she definitely likes you, don't worry! When she knows that we have already become brother and sister, and everything we have done is to keep you together, she will definitely forgive us! ”
"I hope so!"
Xiao Feng was still faintly uneasy in his heart, did he force Qing'er to do it a little too much.
"Brother Xiao ~ Brother Xiao ~ Something happened! Sister Jinyun is gone! ”
Early in the morning, Xue'er rushed into Xiao Feng's room in a panic.
"What!"
Xiao Feng was shocked, and hurriedly went to Jinyun's room, she was very clean, and she didn't leave a single thing, as if she had never been here.
She didn't even leave a letter! Must be mad at me! I've got to go back to her! ”
"Hmmm! Brother Xiao take care all the way! ”
Xue'er prepared a salute for Xiao Feng and sent him away.
Xiao Feng worked hard all the way, sleeplessly, and the horses changed several times, but there was no trace of Jinyun along the way.
After five days and five nights, he finally arrived in Chang'an.
Xiao Feng seemed to be crazy, and searched all over the Chu Mansion, the Li Mansion, and every place that Jinyun might go. But even if the capital is turned upside down, Jinyun disappears without a trace as if the world has evaporated.
Xiao Feng regretted it so much that his heart ached, and he relied on alcohol to numb himself all day long.
"Kaede~Kaede~"
Huali hugged Xiao Feng and kept crying, Xiao Wenzhong, Chu Fei and Wen Su were all by his side.
"Where's your boy? I don't know what to say when I come back! And drink like this bear! I heard that you fell off a cliff, and everyone has been looking for you like crazy for more than a month, thinking you are dead? ”
Chu Fei looked at Xiao Feng, who was in a state of collapse, and came out of his anger.
"Why don't you die? Qing'er is gone, and there is no point in my life! I still have a lot to say to her! ”
Xiao Feng's hair was messy, his beard was unkempt, and he smelled of alcohol.
"Alright, alright, it's good to come back, it's good to come back. We don't want anything else, we don't want to think about it! ”
Huali hugged Xiao Feng tightly in her arms and gently patted him on the shoulder, Xiao Feng cried helplessly like a child.
