Xiu wiped it several times.

His sleeves hadn't dried yet, and his face was still wet when he wiped it like this, and he couldn't tell whether it was water stains or tear stains.

What's wrong with me?

He thought emptyly in his heart. It was as if he had lost something important, but he couldn't remember it, and the feeling was fading at a rapid pace. He was resisting the feeling of loss, and he felt that something funny was really far away from him.

But he couldn't think of anything.

After a while, he wiped his hands clean on his clothes, patted the girl in his arms and asked softly

"Sakura, is there anything wrong with you, or any injuries?"

The girl shook her head, but grabbed the corner of his clothes harder and whispered, "It's just a little cold."

It's cold

If you want to find a way to keep warm, yes, you have to make a fire.

It was good for heating and it was good for drying clothes, especially my wool cape! With these, it won't be cold!

But if you want to make a fire

He looked at the wet broken wood, a little weak.

There was very little to burn here, not even the only piece of wood that was wet. Although it is said that the wet one cannot be burned, there is no way to use this to start a fire.

Is there anything he can do to help, he checked his belongings.

However, he didn't have much on him, and even the knight's sword was lost in battle.

His hand pressed the powder pouch around his waist and opened it for inspection. There is no doubt that the bag has completely flooded.

He poured out the gunpowder. But everything that came out had been blistered and solidified into a hard stone. More than 30 copies, all of them became like this, and none of them were spared. Apparently it doesn't work.

Do you want to burn clothes

He shook his head. If you burn the clothes, there will be a fire for the time being, but once you burn them, it will be over.

What to do

Oh, and one more thing!

He hurriedly glanced around, but fortunately, he saw it beside him.

"Yes, yes, this is it!" He almost jumped for joy.

What he was looking for was the thick net, the one that caught Yae Sakura.

Xiu leaned over slightly, trying not to overwhelm the girl in his arms at the same time. I pulled the net over, pinched it hard with my fingers, and it felt okay. Although it is still a little moist, it can still be burned.

Now there's just one last thing left.

He took the few pieces of gunpowder soaked in water, and prayed to him who he didn't know was there, "Give me something useful left"

Then press them down with a hard piece of armor, pressing the whole body up. After a cracking sound, they were crushed.

Xiu flicked through the pieces, and in his expectant gaze, he found what he wanted to see. This made him laugh in surprise.

So lucky!

The inside of the gunpowder soaked in water, sure enough, there is still a little bit of dryness!

Although there are not many in this piece, you can always make up enough for a few more pieces!

He excitedly crushed seventeen or eighteen pieces in a row, and finally made a small pile. He tore through the net, smeared the gunpowder where it had broken, where the velvet was so dense and dense, and sharpened it with saltpeter.

There was a blinding flash of light and sparks, and a small cluster of flames erupted from the powder pile. But the flames soon disappeared again, but left a dense spark on the rope that flickered faintly.

This is what Xiu wants!

He helped the girl in his arms to the stone wall and leaned against it, and then lay down in front of the spark and blew gently, little by little to make the temperature of the rope higher, the sparks became more and more, and slowly emitted a trace of white smoke, and it really burned.

It worked!

Feeling the temperature of the fire, he was also a little excited in his heart, and he lived alone for a while, and it was not too difficult to make a fire!

With fire, the rest is easy to say!

He stood up with the help of the stone wall, tried to overcome the softness on his legs, walked to the dead wood, and worked hard to break off a few branches and throw them on the fire, let it burn slowly, and then break a few more and put it aside for later use, so that he was really relieved.

He sat relaxed by the fire, let out a long breath, feeling the heat of the flame warm his body, and for a moment he felt extremely satisfied.

Hold Sakura by your side and bake the fire together, spread your clothes aside and let the fire dry. Watching the white smoke from the bonfire drift out of the cave little by little, he lowered his head and whispered in the girl's ear: "We just need to wait patiently, the smoke from the wet wood is very large, and it can fly high into the sky." The god and the people of the village will come to our rescue, and when they see the smoke, they will know where we are. ”

"But we're down the cliff, how can they save us?" Sakura whispered.

"And the old man of the Oni Warrior." Xiu said. Then he thought about it and said affirmatively, "I also saved him, how can he find a way to save me." Then he was a little embarrassed and said, "Besides, this time we are all implicated by him, and you are even more innocent." He won't ignore us no matter what, right? ”

Xiu saw that the girl seemed to nod, and then did not speak again.

The atmosphere fell silent. Sakura didn't speak, but Shu didn't know if he wanted to speak.

The flame on the rope burns more and more, and the moisture in the rope is burned along with the rope in the sound of 'zilazila'. Waterlogged branches also lit flames in the fire. As long as you can keep adding firewood all the time, there will be no problem.

Xiu finally couldn't help it.

"I'm sorry, Sakura. It's caused you a lot of trouble, it's brought you so much danger," he lowered his head, not daring to look at the face of the girl next to him. I didn't dare to look at her embarrassed face, messy hair, tired eyes, and pale lips.

He just wants to stuff all the guilt into his heart, and then admit his mistakes hard, hoping to get a chance to make amends, a chance to be forgiven.

He was now uneasy, and he was tormented every minute by the fact that he had brought innocent people into such a danger for his own reasons. Only by doing so can he feel a little at ease.

"What am I to blame you?" The girl lying sideways by the fire raised her head slightly, her eyes streaming to reflect the boy's restless face.

"I shouldn't have put you in such danger"

"They've been looking for you since the beginning, haven't they?" The girl whispered.

"That's not it, they're looking for the old man Ghost Martial Arts, and after I saved him, they're looking for me."

"That's right," the girl seemed to smile a little relaxed. But it was very slight, just a smile and disappeared, and Xiu barely felt it. "So, am I going to blame you for saving someone?"

Xiu nodded. Then he shook his head for a moment. It still didn't seem right, so he nodded again.

She ignored Xiu, who was still entangled, and asked, "Then, if one day, another person falls in front of Yae Village, ragged, covered in wounds, and dying, will you save it?" ”

Xiu nodded hesitantly, then shook his head again, and nodded again.

But Sakura didn't wait for his final answer. She was weak, but firm and said, "I will save it." I will. Looking at Xiu's somewhat surprised eyes, a soft smile hung on her lips, "So I don't blame you." Not at all. ”

She tilted her head sideways and stretched her body, "Saving people is not doing bad things." It would be unreasonable to be blamed for this. ”

Xiu lowered his head and did not speak.

"I don't think the old man is a bad person." Sakura said softly, "Because the people who are going to deal with him are very bad." So I don't think he's a bad guy. To save him is to do good. The gods will surely bless those who do good deeds. ”

"Even if those who have done good deeds have brought disaster upon you?" Xiu asked.

"It must be a disaster that is destined by fate, but it must be saved." Sakura's eyes were smiling.

Xiu's pupils dilated slightly. But it was soon back to normal.

"Thank you," he whispered. But before he could finish speaking, there was a strange, embarrassed sound in his stomach.

Sakura looked at him with a smile even deeper.

"Xiu, if you really want to do something, can you find something to eat?"

"I'm a little hungry."
