Chapter Twenty-Seven: Encounters in Distress
I don't know how long I walked, but I finally got out of the woods. Wuyu's feet were already weak, but she was hungry and thirsty, and even if she had nothing to eat, she had to find water. Therefore, she has been supported strongly, dragging her tired steps, walking aimlessly.
In the middle of the day, it must have passed noon. At this time of the day, she will take a nap in the Yuanyuan Pavilion, Xianghui will put the refreshments on the table in a timely manner, and when she wakes up, she can eat soft and delicious pastries, drink fragrant and pleasant flower tea, such days, now I think about it is really extremely comfortable.
Such memories are simply torture for Wuyu, who is now hungry and thirsty. She could only close her eyes and savor the taste of the pastry, the fragrance of the tea, so that she could gather some strength and move on.
There had never been such despair, her lips were chapped, her throat was on fire, and she desperately wanted to drink. But she was already dizzy, and she would fall down at any time, all supported by an obsession, and she didn't know if she would fall like this in the next second, and then she wouldn't wake up.
Every time the feeling of despair came up, she struggled with herself, telling herself over and over again, don't fall, don't fall.
In this way, after walking for about half an hour, her mind gradually became chaotic, and she seemed to hear the sound of rushing water, and she was shocked and sobered up a little. The desire to live gave her strength, and she dragged her heavy steps towards the sound of the water again.
The sound of the water was getting closer and closer, and she dared to believe that it was not her own hallucination. Suddenly, a long and narrow river appeared in front of me. The river is turbulent, like a hurried passer-by, and I don't know where the river is flowing in a hurry...
Wuyu walked to the river, squatted down, drank a few sips of river water, and the whole person was a lot more sober, and then she looked at the river with emotion.
If it weren't for this river, she would have fallen by now. The water of the river is clear and you can see the bottom, so it must have flowed down from the mountain, maybe the water from the waterfall in the back mountain of Wangcheng Mountain flowed here.
Then can she walk along the upstream, maybe she can go to Wangcheng Mountain? With this thought, Wuyu cried with joy, this was her only hope, she could only gamble once.
As soon as he turned around and wanted to go in the opposite direction, he unexpectedly caught a glimpse of a person who seemed to be stuck in several rocks in the river out of the corner of his eye. The white fabric felt a little familiar, and he walked over without hesitation.
The reef was in the middle of the river, and it was just knee-high when I probed the depths of the water. Wuyu touched the water and slowly approached, the current was turbulent, almost washing her away, and Wuyu was in a hurry to climb the reef in the water with both hands.
Gradually, the white figure became clear, and the wet white robe had a striking blood red. Wuyu was scared in his heart, but he still mustered up the courage to walk in front of the white figure.
She dragged the white figure out of the reef with great effort, and without caring about her master's face, she dragged the white figure to the shore with great difficulty.
After all, her strength is effective, and she herself is very hungry and injured, and she is a little powerless. As soon as she relaxed, the river swept her and the white figure away, and she herself fell into the water.
Wuyu drank a few sips of river water, and finally got up, but the white figure floated out of the distance.
To be honest, in this situation where it is difficult to protect herself, Wuyu wants to give up, but her conscience does not allow her to do so. Besides, multiple people find a way to have a better chance of getting out of this place.
So, she had no choice but to fish for the figure, and this time, she dragged the white figure to the shore in one go. As soon as he arrived on the shore, he collapsed and passed out on the body of the white figure.
I don't know how long it took, but the fingers of the white figure moved. When he looked up, there was a look of confusion in his eyes.
There was something pressing on his body, and he brushed it away, but he didn't expect it to be a person's body, or a woman. He rolled over and sat up, brushing away the messy hair on the woman's face, and his eyes widened in surprise at the sight.
How could it be her? Glancing around, he looked at the woman again in confusion, wondering why she was here. Now that it was getting dark, they had to find a place to take refuge.
Standing up, enduring the pain of the wound, the man picked it up, observed the surrounding environment, and finally chose a direction and walked over.
Fortunately, in the midst of the strange rocks, I found a stone cave, and it was quite dry inside. The man leaned against the cave wall and walked out by himself.
After a while, he came back with dry firewood in his hand and a few fish hanging from the branches. I didn't know where to find a curved stone, filled it with some water, and fed it to the unconscious Wuyu to drink.
Although unconscious, Wuxian was still conscious, she drank a few sips of water on the stone, but there was not much water in it, she didn't seem to have drunk enough, frowned dissatisfiedly, and pouted the moist cherry red mouth.
The man looked interesting, couldn't help but look at her a few more times, and couldn't help but reach out and caress her delicate face and rub it carefully. It was as if the face he was holding was a rare treasure, completely unconscious, just from the heart, out of the control of his mind.
When he came to his senses, he suddenly withdrew his hand, and looked at him in a daze, countless thoughts flashed. He finally sighed, put aside distractions, and set up a wood fire to grill the fish.
Her thoughts were chaotic, and she felt so tired that she wanted to sleep like this all the time. In her sleep, she dreamed that her mother gently caressed her cheek, and the love in her eyes drowned her.
She couldn't tell the difference between reality and dreams, and fell into her mother's pampering. Reluctance to wake up. Because, she believes, she has never left her mother, at this moment, she is resting her head on her mother's knees, enjoying her mother's gentle touch, and the sun is quiet!
Suddenly, a scent wafted in, as if from a distant place, and Wu Yu sniffed the smell vigorously. An unspeakable hunger, accompanied by a throbbing pain in her stomach, destroyed all the sights, and she opened her eyes abruptly.
Everything in front of her made her a little unaware of what time it was, and when she saw the white-robed man turn around, she exclaimed, "Xuanyuan Che? How did you end up here? What kind of place is this? ”
Looking around in a panic, there is a few square meters of enclosed stone-shaped space, and a firewood pile is set up in the middle, barely visible. All of this is not as good as the fragrant grilled fish on the branch in Xuanyuan Che's hand, which makes Wu Yu more concerned.
She was so hungry that she swallowed as she watched the grilled fish. But she didn't dare to squeak, maybe it was stubbornness, or maybe it was the current situation of the two of them, and she didn't know how to face Xuanyuan Che.
Pitiful, embarrassed, hungry eyes, how can such a girl not give birth to compassion? What's more, this person is still the little girl he watched grow up.
Xuanyuan Che handed the grilled fish to Wu Yu and said, "Let's eat first, and I'll talk about it later when I'm full." ”
