Chapter 023: Memories of the Last Life (9)
It's Gu Moxi......
The person who caught Xue Xiao's eyes was the owner of the last picture that flashed in her mind when she fell: on the sofa on the second floor of the island villa, there was Gu Moxi, who was chatting with her expressionlessly.
I saw that at this time, Gu Moxi's right hand was holding Xue Xiao tightly, and his left hand was laboriously grasping the rattan on the inner wall of the ravine, the slender rattan was regularly wrapped around his arm several times, carrying the weight of the two people was slowly declining, his body was bearing the force of the rattan and the double friction of bumping around, because of the force of the rattan and Gu Moxi's efforts to find a balance point, the speed of the two falling was much slower.
Gu Moxi didn't dare to relax his vigilance, at this time, the ravine below the two of them was still bottomless, and he tried his best to protect Xue Xiao while looking for the best landing position.
The dead branches and gravel on the side wall of the ravine seemed to have eyes, and they were desperate to entertain him.
After a while, Gu Moxi's clothes had been shattered into strips of cloth, and the scars on his face were increasing one by one, and Xue Xiao, who was protected by him, had no new injuries on his body except for the abrasions he had suffered when he rolled down the steep slope in order to escape. Compared with Xue Xiao, Gu Moxi at this time was relatively embarrassed, but he calmly dealt with life and death, and the courage to find life in such a dangerous situation made him not look embarrassed at all, but full of fatal attraction.
Xue Xiao looked at Gu Moxi desperately protecting her, and couldn't tell what it felt in her heart, she was sour.
It was a desperate dying person's full of emotion and joy when he saw the savior appear.
The bodies of the two were still declining, and suddenly a bright light flashed in Gu Moxi's eyes, and without waiting for Xue Xiao to react, he quickly let go of the vines around his left arm, held Xue Xiao with both hands, and his feet violently turned in the direction of the oblique side of the two through the inner wall, and quickly rolled in two circles. In the process, Gu Moxi let out a dull snort from his mouth.
After the two stopped, Xue Xiao saw the current situation clearly: he saw that the two of them were now in a small cave, and because it was still dark at this time, they still couldn't see the bottom of the ravine at a glance.
In other words, the two of them are now in a cave in the middle of the ravine.
Xue Xiao had to admire Gu Moxi's keen insight, in such a dark night, the bodies of the two were still falling under gravity, he was able to find this cave in such a situation, and reacted quickly, carrying the weight of two people into this cave accurately, and there were weeds at the entrance of the cave.
Unless such a vigorous skill has received some kind of professional training, it is impossible for an ordinary person to be able to do this step in such a situation......
"We're safe for the time being, right?" Xue Xiao felt a sense of joy in his heart for the rest of his life, and his tone was slightly relaxed and cheerful.
After several seconds, Gu Moxi beside him didn't react, and Xue Xiao felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly crawled to his side to check.
Seeing that Gu Moxi had completely lost consciousness at this time, Xue Xiao could only vaguely see Gu Moxi's pale cheeks and several obvious scratches on his face by relying on a few rays of moonlight that slightly penetrated through the entrance of the cave.
"Gu Moxi......" Xue Xiao was a little anxious, and called his full name for the first time.
Gu Moxi, who was lying on the ground, still did not react.
Xue Xiao pounced and tried to help him up and lean against him, but as soon as his hands touched him, he felt a sticky patch. Xue Xiao was stunned, and then continued to touch the other places on his body, but none of them were dry.
Thinking that he had a gunshot wound in the back last night, and that he had saved her in such a dangerous situation tonight. also blocked the surrounding dead branches and rocks for her, and used his body to protect her.
How painful must it be to bear the gravity of two people and block so many gravel and branches when he is already seriously injured?
Xue Xiao only felt that the tip of his nose was a little sour.
Although she doesn't have many friends around her, there are people who treat her sincerely.
But she has been protecting herself for so many years, because no one should always be centered on her except herself, and her own path is spelled out by herself step by step. In her opinion, she should be fully responsible for her own life, and others are unreliable.
Some friends persuaded her, saying that it was not easy for her to be alone, and she could still find a man to rely on when necessary. She didn't think so, no one could let her rely on, the only person she could rely on was herself.
Because of this, Xue Xiao is very powerful in the eyes of outsiders, and he does not need to rely on others for protection.
So in Xue Xiao's memory, no one has ever done this for her, and no one has ever risked his life to protect her for her.
But the person in front of him did it, even though they had only known each other for half a year. Although the two chatted from time to time, to be honest, they didn't spend much time together, and the relationship between the two was one that they didn't understand each other.
In Xue Xiao's definition, the relationship between the two is not even an ordinary friend.
But at this moment, Xue Xiao knew that the person in front of her had a place in her heart.
Although she still can't tell what position he is in her heart now, there are only a few people who can be put in her heart by heart.
In Xue Xiao's opinion, the current Gu Moxi is at least a very important friend in her eyes.
Xue Xiao's eyes were slightly red, and she carefully helped Gu Moxi up and leaned against herself, while she herself gently leaned on the somewhat cold inner wall behind her.
Gu Moxi was still unconscious, and it was dark around him, and there were no emergency tools. Xue Xiao couldn't do anything, the only thing he could do was to let him lean on himself and pass the body temperature on his body to him, so as to prevent him from getting cold even if he was seriously injured.
After spending several hours in an extremely tense situation, experiencing escape, and experiencing life and death, Xue Xiao was also a little tired at this time.
She wanted to lean against the inner wall of the cave and take a nap, but before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.
Early the next morning......
The first rays of the morning sun shone obliquely through the weeds at the cave entrance, and the stars sprinkled on the ground. Gu Moxi, who was unconscious, frowned and moved his head due to the light, just about to wake up, but Xue Xiao next to him woke up first because of Gu Moxi's movements.
She anxiously turned her head to look at Gu Moxi and shouted softly, "Gu Moxi, are you awake?"
Gu Moxi, who had just woken up and was still dizzy, only felt a crisp and pleasant sound pour into his ears, making his brain instantly sober up a lot.
This was the first time the woman in front of him had called him by his full name, and it made him feel like the distance between them had narrowed a lot.
Actually, it was the second time, the first time he was unconscious, and he didn't hear it......
Before he had time to make him feel a little more happy in his heart, the girl's bean-sized eyes in front of him fell down, startling Gu Moxi, who had just woken up.
In fact, Xue Xiao also felt embarrassed, this was really the first time she shed tears in front of a big man.
But it's really not her to blame. The light was too dim last night, and she only felt the sticky blood on Gu Moxi's body, and vaguely saw the scratches on his face.
But now that the light is bright, she suddenly saw Gu Moxi's tragic situation, under the influence of such an impact, the tears really fell unconsciously, and even she didn't react.
I saw that Gu Moxi in front of him didn't have a good place on his face.
His face turned pale and transparent, and his bloodless lips were even more bruised. The visible area of the exposed skin is full of various abrasions and scratches. The clothes were broken into pieces, and some of the strips of cloth were still trapped in the flesh of the wounded.
If it weren't for Gu Moxi wearing a black dress, and the color of blood was integrated into the black of the clothes, then the current Gu Moxi would be a bloody person.
Even Xue Xiao looked forward and saw a protruding sharp stone standing on the ground in front of him, and the stone was full of coagulated blood. Thinking of Gu Moxi's muffled snort when the two of them rolled into the cave last night, Gu Moxi, who was already seriously injured at that time, carried the weight of two people and smashed on the sharp stone, Xue Xiao's heart throbbed invisibly.
"What's wrong with you, does it hurt somewhere?" Gu Moxi had never seen a woman cry in front of him, because he had never been in contact with a woman so closely.
Moreover, Gu Moxi is not a person who will pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and those women who have worked hard to get to him one by one did not please him in the end.
Gu Moxi was seriously injured, the most serious being the gunshot wound in the back, which had cracked open and became infected. Now Gu Moxi can't exert any strength on his body, and he can't move all over.
Last night, he was able to take Xue Xiao so smoothly to find a foothold, all of which was supported by his perseverance at that time, so that now that he is relaxed, not only can he not move, but even his voice seems to be very weak, dumb, low, as if it took a lot of effort to make a sound.
"He's like that, and he asked her if it hurts?" Xue Xiao's heart shrank again, and the tears fell even more fiercely.
Xue Xiao, who never shed tears easily, also knew in her heart that it was embarrassing and cheap to shed tears in front of a big man like this, but she couldn't help it.
She couldn't help it......
Gu Moxi saw that after he asked, the tears of the woman in front of him fell even more fiercely.
Gu Moxi, who has always been unfazed, seemed a little at a loss, he had never experienced such a situation, and he really didn't know how to deal with it.
Emotional intelligence is not very online, and when he saw that he asked such a question, the woman's tears fell even more fiercely, and he thought that Xue Xiao was really injured somewhere.
After all, it's a girl, and it's a young lady, and in such a frightened and tired situation, she was also injured, so it's normal to cry.
Gu Moxi just wanted to struggle hard to get up and check where she was injured, but she was stunned by a question from the woman in front of her.
I saw the woman wipe a handful of tears indiscriminately, and then raised her head and asked him, "Gu Moxi, why did you save me?"
The expression on the woman's face was very serious, and there were crystal clear tears in the corners of her eyes.
Why did you save her? Gu Moxi didn't think about this question.
He has saved so many people, and others have accepted his rescue as a matter of course. No one had asked him why he had saved them, and he hadn't thought of asking them for anything in return.
Because that's where his job lies.
Tonight's situation is a different person, and he will also save it. It's just that if that person is Xue Xiao, he will do his best to save her, and if he succeeds in saving her, he will also feel very lucky.
Xue Xiao didn't know what was wrong, she just suddenly wanted to know this question very persistently. After all, this person didn't just save her life, but almost saved her with his own life, and protected her with his own flesh and blood.
Seeing that Gu Moxi was silent and didn't answer, he thought that he might be too injured and didn't have the strength to speak.
Although Xue Xiao was slightly disappointed when he couldn't hear her answer, he still felt sorry for his injuries when he thought of his injuries.
Thinking about it, why don't you wait until he's better to ask?
Xue Xiaogang thought so, but he didn't want Gu Moxi beside him to answer.
"You don't have to blame yourself, I will save it if it were someone else today" Gu Moxi looked at Xue Xiao, thinking that she asked this probably because she felt guilty because she was in danger to save her.
The reason why Gu Moxi answered like that was just to prevent Xue Xiao from blaming himself, and he answered the truth, but it only concealed his determination to save Xue Xiao. Although he would try his best to save someone else, he would not be as desperate as he was to save Xue Xiao.
But he didn't want Xue Xiao at this time to feel dissatisfied after hearing his answer......
