Facing Shen Jingyun's words, I was silent, just leaning lightly on Shen Jingyun's arms, and one finger was intentionally or unintentionally playing with Shen Jingyun's buttonhole. Of course I understand what Shen Jingyun means, and I love him too, but this doesn't mean that I don't have my own ideas, I'm thinking about how to express my thoughts clearly.

My silence made Shen Jingyun a little uneasy, he gently hugged me tightly, and rubbed his chin against the top of my head: "Xiaoshuang, why don't you speak?" ”

"Jingyun, I don't know if you have gone to school normally?" I thought about it for a long time, and I said something like this.

Shen Jingyun was a little puzzled, but he still thought about it very seriously for a while before answering me: "Speaking of which, the formal education I received in the school before college was all a match, and occasionally I could settle down in a place for a long time, so I went to a semester or even a half-semester class, and if I couldn't, I didn't go to school, so I naturally had to study by myself." And then go back to school and skip the grades. ”

Only then did I know Shen Jingyun's previous life, I didn't know how to describe it, what was the difference between it and street children? It seems that this young man did not suffer less when he was a child. However, this is not the point of the question, the point is that I just used this topic to lead me to what I wanted to say, but I still said, "I can't imagine that you used to go to school like this, and you can finally go to college, then you are very good." ”

Shen Jingyun smiled, but I praised him, and there was always some smugness in his eyes.

I didn't pay attention to it, but continued to say my main point, not wanting to take the topic away: "Shen Jingyun, I asked this, I just wanted to ask you, do you remember a poem in the textbook?" ”

"Poetry?" Shen Jingyun narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, To the Oak." I happily looked at Shen Jingyun and said loudly.

"Uh." Shen Jingyun looked a little embarrassed, obviously this guy who reads books intermittently won't care about a text that is not very important, and what kind of poem is it?

I could only go crazy in my heart for a moment before I said to Shen Jingyun: "Okay, you don't remember, I can tell you roughly." That poem is about a woman's attitude towards love, hoping to stand side by side with the man she loves, he is a tall oak tree, and she is not just attached to him, she hopes to be a kapok tree around him, the roots are entangled, the branches and leaves are nestled, do you understand what I mean? ”

I think I've made it clear enough to Shen Jingyun, I found that I can't be too literary and artistic to him, and it's best to say what I think directly.

Shen Jingyun let go of me, touched his chin and looked at me for a long time, and then said, "Oh, I understand, in your eyes, I am a tall oak tree." You admit that I am the man you love, and you also admit our relationship, right? ”

I was almost mad with Shen Jingyun, and many words in my heart were blocked, and finally I could only look at Shen Jingyun helplessly, and said, "Okay, you didn't say it to me." ”

After saying that, I wanted to leave here and sit over there, but Shen Jingyun grabbed me with a smile and said to me, "Okay, Xiaoshuang, I know what you mean." You are trying to tell me that you want us to be together, to be able to share ups and downs, to rely on each other, and not just for you to rely on me. Let me not think of you as so fragile, can you tell you the truth, you actually, maybe, can help me, at least help me analyze? Is that so? ”

Shen Jingyun's tone was not quite sure, but his eyes were full of tenderness looking at me.

This is not a sweet word, but Shen Jingyun analyzed my words once, but I felt extremely moved, for the first time, I took the initiative to hold Shen Jingyun's hand, and it was tight, hard.

"I said, respect you. And I trust you 100 percent, as long as you bring it up to me, I will trust you to bear it, and even be able to make me rely on it. Come here, let's talk while we eat, okay? Shen Jingyun touched my hair, kissed my forehead, and then said to me gently.

I am extremely happy in my heart, I don't know what other girls are like, and for me, whether a man spoils me or is generous, it is not as good as a man's respect for me to make me happy. The respect that Shen Jingyun gave me really touched me and made me feel that I loved him very much.

This conversation undoubtedly strengthened my resolve again, and I felt that even if I was burdened with guilt or even "crimes", it was the right decision to be with Shen Jingyun.

Sitting in front of the fire, Shen Jingyun's carefully prepared lunch was already hotly arranged.

In fact, relying on the dense forest, it is not too difficult to get ingredients, such as a pot of mushroom snake soup and a roast rabbit in front of me. To be honest, Shen Jingyun's craftsmanship is really not outstanding, but being able to eat such food in the wild has made him very troubled, and the most important thing is his heart.

I didn't think much about Helian Cheng, although I felt his warmth when I was most helpless, but there was a lack of affection between the two people, it really seemed that the food had become less flavorful, and at this point, I could only let him down.

Seeing that I ate sweetly, Shen Jingyun looked very happy, I finished drinking the snake soup, he actively took it over for me, and after I finished eating the rabbit meat, he diligently tore some more for me, looking very "doglegged", I was moved and funny. However, during the meal, he never mentioned everything I wanted to hear.

But I'm not in a hurry, and it's nice to enjoy his gentle care at such times, and since he has promised to tell me, I know he will say it.

We had a very happy meal, but on the underground cave platform under the sinkhole, I felt that Shen Jingyun and I were as happy as if we were on an outing, completely forgetting the environment we were in, until Shen Jingyun's smile suddenly paused, he grabbed a knife next to him, and stabbed a poisonous snake that was quietly swimming towards us, I woke up, we were still in a dangerous environment, love can only change people's mood, and it can't change the environment.

"I have anti-snake powder, but in this environment, you have to be careful to leave a way back for yourself. It's relatively safe here, and I'm not going to waste the already precious powder, you know that our backpack has too many things, and everything except for the very necessary food has a strict portion limit. Shen Jingyun opened the topic like this.

And when he said this, his face became serious, and the gentle lover just now seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

There was no abnormal fluctuation in my heart, and when I turned my head and saw the poisonous snake that was nailed by Shen Jingyun's knife and was still struggling, I didn't have any change in expression. In fact, how could I not be afraid for a moment, but I had stated myself before that if I wanted to be the kapok tree beside Shen Jingyun, then I had to show an appearance, at least an attitude.

Shen Jingyun was satisfied with my performance, he walked in front of the poisonous snake, pulled out the knife casually, and then lifted the tail of the poisonous snake with his hands and feet, shook it vigorously, threw the poisonous snake off the cliff, and then said to me: "We have encountered a lot of things along the way, right?" Not to mention what kind of attitude I have, which makes you wonder, just say that those snakes, wolves, etc., are what you have seen with your own eyes, not to mention the danger, at least beyond your understanding of nature, right? ”

"Yes, a lot of it is beyond my knowledge. I don't know if the wilderness itself is like that, or if it's something special that we've encountered. But none of this is anything, I didn't come with the mood that everything would be without danger, and it was you who puzzled me the most. I replied in a straightforward manner.

Shen Jingyun wiped the knife, then folded it and put it in a buckle on his boots, he glanced at me before he said to me, "You just said something right." It doesn't matter if it's a pack of wolves or a pack of snakes, it's nothing. Oh, and what I'm trying to convey is that the dangers they pose are really nothing to me. The dangerous thing is that I had a judgment and a guess at the beginning, and after I got here, whether it was my previous guess or my judgment, it was confirmed, and that was the worst and most dangerous thing, you know? ”

I looked at Shen Jingyun and didn't speak, I knew he would definitely continue.

Sure enough, Shen Jingyun did not pause, and quickly walked in front of me, although serious, he still gently took my hand and walked to the edge of the platform. I don't know what he's going to do? But I was patient to wait.

"Here, let's call the lake that looks like an eye a lake a lake. Now with Lake Meko as the center, except for this area is the most important, it is our goal, so let's ignore it for the time being. Then, you look at other places, and then you think about yesterday, and you tell me a judgment that you have the most intuitive feeling. As Shen Jingyun spoke, he pointed to the space under the platform.

The dense primeval jungle is not all, there are some other strange terrains. Standing at this height of ours, there is no end in sight, but Shen Jingyun asked me about my intuitive judgment, and I couldn't help but think about it when I connected it to yesterday's events.

What do you mean? I thought about it, as if I had caught something, but the window paper was still close to bursting.

Shen Jingyun was not in a hurry, just patiently waiting for my answer.

And after thinking about it for a while, the vague point of view in my heart has become clearer and clearer, and I can't help muttering: "Territory, is it territory?" ”

Shen Jingyun's eyes lit up, and he said to me: "Yes, Xiaoshuang, you are very smart!" It is the territory, in this underground, there is a very strict territory area, and this area represents the order of this underground space. We avoided the serpents yesterday, and it's because of this order, I said this, don't you understand? ”
