Lost 3
Lin Jin'er had already fallen asleep on Bai Zechen's shoulder, but Bai Zechen had to cheer up, he was sleepy and hungry, and he had to twist his thighs every once in a while in order not to fall asleep, so as not to make himself sleepy and let the two of them fall from the tree together.
"I'm still hungry......"
barely lasted until dawn, Lin Jin'er woke up in a daze, watching Bai Zechen holding the branch with one hand, and supporting his back with the other hand to avoid falling down, and suddenly felt that although this man usually scolded him, he was actually very reliable.
"You haven't slept all night, have you? Now for a shift change. ”
Lin Jin'er lowered her head to hide her moved eyes, looking around for something to eat.
"Don't eat those leaves anymore, even if it's not poisonous, it's very stomach-hurting, now we have weapons in our hands, find a way to catch a small animal to eat, didn't that girl say yesterday that there is a river not far from here, it shouldn't be difficult to catch a fish."
"yes, okay."
Usually Lin Jin'er talks a lot, but now she is so hungry that she can't eat anything and is frightened, she is a lot gentler.
"But yesterday's roar...... I don't know if it's dangerous or not, and it seems that people of other races will die when they see us. ”
"Now I count on the system to take us away as soon as possible, and the others can only take one step at a time."
There are relatively few beasts during the day, and this time is a waste of time to sleep, Bai Zechen explained and jumped off the tree.
"Give me the weapon, you hide in the tree and don't come down, I'll go around Fujin and see if I can find the river, if I find it, I'll come back to you, I'll make some marks along the way, if you don't come back for a long time, it's probably into the belly of the beast."
"Don't talk nonsense, how dare I stay here alone when you say that, and so does the system, why did you bring the two of us to this hellish place."
"Let's be honest."
Bai Zechen smiled lightly, and then took the weapon handed by Lin Jin'er.
"I don't know if the knot is strong."
…………………………
In less than an hour, Bai Zechen came back, Lin Jin'er's tense nerves also relaxed, and he looked at Bai Zechen, who climbed up the tree, with a few blood marks on his face, and instantly became nervous again.
"What's going on? Did you meet someone? ”
"No, the branches are blowing, I saw the river, but it was much farther than I thought, but the good news is that we have a relatively high terrain here, you can see the environment over there, if you are ready, we will go on the road."
Lin Jin'er nodded and slowly climbed down the tree trunk, hesitated for a moment and said.
"Every time I cross, as long as I complete the task, you will be sent back safely, you don't have to work so hard."
"That's why I'm working so hard, if you die halfway, won't I be able to go back?"
Bai Zechen listened to Lin Jin'er's words and felt warm in his heart, although she didn't love herself now, at least she was her important person, and he was already very content.
"Why are you smiling so cheaply?"
Lin Jin'er glanced at Bai Zechen, thinking about whether what she had just said made Bai Zechen misunderstand and just about to explain, she saw his beautiful expression, and her face darkened instantly.
It really can't give this person a good face, neurotic!
secretly reminded himself that he couldn't show that he cared too much about him in the future, but he still carefully helped Bai Zechen remove the branches beside him.
"What are you going to do when you get back?"
Maybe it was because there was no danger along the way, and there was a life-saving guy in his hand, and the emotions of the two gradually calmed down and began to chat without a word.
"Well, I didn't think about it, I should still be by your side."
"You're ridiculous, why don't you go and see your family when you've gone back to your original world? Even if they don't recognize you, at least they know how they're doing. ”
Bai Zechen glanced at Lin Jin'er helplessly.
"The family definitely wants to see them, but they can't get too close to them, and they can't disturb their lives, you know? My presence will subtly affect their future lives, so it would be nice to just take a look at them from afar, after all, we are traveling through the past, not really going back. There is a big difference between these two. ”
Bai Zechen rarely has such a serious time, usually when he talks to Lin Jin'er, he always has a kind of smile, which makes Lin Jin'er feel that it is possible that Bai Zechen is the system boss behind the scenes, but every time he is unlucky, and even several times he is just a soy sauce role that makes Lin Jin'er slowly believe him.
"What about you?"
Bai Zechen turned to look at Lin Jin'er, Lin Jin'er, who was originally relatively thin, looked even thinner because she didn't eat well and sleep well in the past few days, she usually walked and was full of energy, like a little rabbit, she now looks like she has no energy at all, and she is very depressed.
"Me...... I'm definitely going to meet my mom and dad, although it's a bit silly to say that now. ”
"Why?"
Bai Zechen knew that Lin Jin'er wanted to return to the original world quickly, and suddenly being so sad really made him unaccustomed to it.
"I've said it many times, I don't have the memories you once had, I don't know if I can find my parents, so you just said that you will be with me alone, and you have to talk and count."
"I might be able to help you inquire, after all, we come from the same place, and we may have friends who know each other in common."
System Jun kept reminding Bai Zechen that he couldn't tell Lin Jin'er the truth, and he could only use this excuse to find a way for her to find everything she had done.
"I don't know if I have a boyfriend, or if I'm married, or even have a baby."
The more Lin Jin'er spoke, the more energetic she became, her eyes slowly brightened, and the journey seemed to be a lot shorter.
"Wait."
Lin Jin'er had already seen the small river full of fish and shrimp that she had been thinking about for a long time, but at this time, Bai Zechen stopped her.
"What?"
"Usually there are a lot of animals near the water source, and they also come to drink water, and there are people of other races who will also come here to fetch water, so let's not get too close and observe and observe."
When Lin Jin'er heard this, she quickly agreed.
"It's true that there are a lot of trees and weeds along the river, but where are we hiding?"
Looking at the surrounding plants, they were almost all about the same height, and there was no point in hiding in the trees at this time, when they were observing others, it was possible that there were people in other trees observing them.
"Let me think about it."
Bai Zechen looked at the dirt on the riverside, then ripped off a piece of cloth from his clothes, spread it on the ground, and used a branch to paint on the soil.
"What is this?"
"Look at the lines on the riverside, they should have been left by some animals that came to the river, I will write down the layout of the lines, and then we will come back tomorrow to see, if it is a large animal or some other intelligent race, the mark left must be very obvious."
Lin Jin'er snorted, and peeked at Bai Zechen with a sideways face.
