Heavy rain that night.

"Red Dust, Red Dust! Red Dust Wake Up! ”

Hongchen heard someone calling him in a coma, and his voice was far and near, loud and small. He tried to open his eyes, but there was still darkness in front of him, the darkness that he couldn't see his fingers, he suddenly panicked, as if he was deep in a very unsafe place, and there were dangerous things hidden in a trance all around, he wanted to stand up, but his whole body could not exert his strength, only his eyelids could still be opened.

Just when Hongchen was panicking, he heard a very familiar voice say, "Are you awake?" ”

Hongchen was stunned, and the voice he made when he opened his mouth was indeed hoarse: "Xiao Jin? ”

Hongchen was stunned, and coughed twice in disbelief: "I...... My voice ......"

Xiao Jin comforted him and said, "You just drank too much river water and put sand in your throat, so it's not in the way." ”

Hongchen breathed a sigh of relief a little reassuringly, and after a while, he said with some excitement: "Xiao Jin, I'm ...... Why can't I see you......"

Xiao Jin was a little speechless and said, "Aren't you night blind?" Saying that he was afraid that Hongchen was afraid, he reached out and held his hand.

Hongchen touched the entity, felt a little relieved, and suddenly said a little embarrassed: "You...... How did you know I was night blind? ”

Xiao Jin was worried about sending Qingyi, and he didn't know where she could go in such a heavy rain, so he replied casually when he heard Dao Hongchen's question: "I found out in the palace of the Nightmare Palace, before I saw the torches, you were very nervous walking next to the wall." ”

Hongchen smiled happily, Xu Shi also felt that his voice was not good now, and he didn't speak again.

Xiao Jin frowned and looked at the sky outside and said, "It's still down." ”

Hongchen squinted, still couldn't see anything, he swallowed hard and said, "Xiao Jin, I'm thirsty." ”

Xiao Jin glanced at him and said, "Bear the thirst." ”

Hongchen licked his lips and said aggrievedly: "I can't bear ......"

As he spoke, he hooked his little finger and said, "It's raining outside, and I feel even thirstier." ”

Xiao Jin rolled his eyes impatiently, stretched out his hand to cover Hongchen's ears and said, "If you can't hear it, you won't be thirsty." ”

Hongchen: "......"

Hongchen raised his hand and took Ji Qingyi's hand off his ear, and said with difficulty in his hoarse voice: "Can you go and get me some rain." ”

"No, no."

Hongchen sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll go by myself." ”

As he spoke, he was about to sit up, but his hand accidentally touched his leg, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said with a crying voice: "Xiao Jin, where is my leg?" Why don't I feel sensation in my legs...... Am I going to be crippled......"

Xiao Jin took his hand down with a black line on his face and said, "You touched my leg." ”

Hongchen retracted his hand a little embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry." ”

Xiao Jin sighed, looked at him helplessly and said, "You wait, I'll go pick up some rain for you." ”

Hongchen nodded, afraid that Xiao Jin wouldn't see it, so he said again: "En." I waited. ”

Xiao Jin and Hongchen were hiding in a tree hole, and the outside of the cave was windy, rainy, thundering, and flooding, and the inside of the cave was naturally damp, wet and water-stained. Xiao Jin just walked for a while, Hongchen felt more and more water under him, he wanted to stand up but had no strength, his eyes were wide and he couldn't see anything, and his voice was a little trembling and he shouted: "Xiao Jin." ”

No one responded.

Hongchen didn't know where they were staying, and he was even more scared, for fear that at this time, if the water was fierce and drowned him, he shouted again: "Xiao Jin, Xiao Jin, are you there?" ”

An impatient voice came from beside him: "Can you be quiet?" ”

When Hongchen heard that it was Xiao Jin, he hurriedly closed his mouth.

Xiao Jin brought a handful of rain to his mouth: "Open your mouth." ”

Hongchen obediently opened his mouth, Xiao Jin sent the water in his hand to Hongchen's mouth along his fingertips, and asked, "Is it better?" ”

Hongchen choked, coughed a few times, and said, "Okay, much better." ”

After that, he grabbed Xiao Jin's sleeve and said, "Can you hold me up, there is water underground." ”

Xiao Jin touched the ground and said, "It's okay, the water from outside is flowing in." ”

Hongchen snorted pitifully twice, sniffled and said, "I, I'm afraid of being drowned." ”

Xiao Jin wanted to ask Cangtian speechlessly, holding Hongchen's shoulders and letting him lean against the wall: "Relieved?" ”

Hongchen licked his lips and said, "Why did you suddenly run out." ”

Xiao Jin lowered his eyelids and said lightly: "Qing'er hasn't returned home yet, I'm afraid something will happen to her." ”

Hongchen frowned, tilted his head towards the source of the voice and asked, "Why didn't Ji Qingyi return home?" Didn't she follow you to the palace? ”

Xiao Jin stared at the flowing water outside the tree hole and said, "Well, I seem to have made her angry, so she didn't come back." ”

Hongchen nodded, thought for a long time and said, "But have you been looking for He Qingchen?" ”

Xiao Jin was stunned for a moment and said, "I haven't been there yet." ”

Hongchen's expression also became nervous, and he said in a deep voice: "The rain is so heavy today, if she is not in Kyoto City, it will be in danger." ”

As he spoke, he pushed Xiao Jin and said, "Is there any place to shelter from the rain near this suburb?" Ji Qingyi is a smart person, and when he sees such a heavy rain, he will naturally find a place to hide. ”

Why didn't Xiao Jin arrive? But he had already gone into the surrounding temples and Taoist temples, and even the dilapidated farmhouses, but there was no half of them. Xiao Jin didn't speak, glanced back at Hongchen and said, "You don't have to worry about it, take a good rest, don't something happen for a while, you can't run." ”

The next day, because of the gloomy weather, it was very late to dawn, Xiao Jin and Hongchen stayed up all night, both of them stared at each other and stayed up until dawn, not that they were not sleepy, but it was too cold, and they shivered from the cold.

Xiao Jin and Hongchen came out of the tree hole, it was already sunny outside, but there was still a lot of water on the ground. The two of them waded through the river and walked back, some of the trees in the woods had been blown down by the wind last night, and in addition to the difficult water, the two of them had to climb through the obstacles composed of tree trunks, which could be said to be very difficult.

After walking for a while, Hongchen climbed to the trunk of the tree tiredly and didn't leave: "Xiao Jin, can we rest here for a while?" ”

Xiao Jin glanced back at him, and continued to walk forward expressionlessly: "If you rest, you can rest, I won't wait for you." ”

That posture, as if serious. Hongchen hurriedly climbed down from the trunk of the tree and muttered, "You really don't wait for me." ”

Xiao Jin said lightly: "We have to hurry back to the house and see if Qing'er has returned." ”

Hongchen turned his head and looked around and said, "Otherwise, let's look around here first, it was gloomy and rainy last night, what if we didn't see it?" ”

Xiao Jin thought about it and felt that what Hongchen said made sense, so he nodded and pulled Hongchen towards the mountain on the side, because the mountain collapsed last night, so there were many broken stones in the water, Xiao Jin and Hongchen stepped on the broken stones in the water and stumbled to the foothills formed last night, and then climbed up along the foothills.

Xiao Jin looked at the somewhat tall foothills, turned to Hongchen and said, "You wait until you climb to a stable place and rest first, I'll go up and take a look and come back." ”

Hongchen said, "I can be with you." ”

Xiao Jin frowned, turned around impatiently and said, "You are not in good health, so you should rest." ”

As he spoke, he climbed up with his hands propped up. Hongchen sat aside, squinting at the entire noisy woods, and suddenly felt as if there were a few points moving in the distance, he took a closer look, and realized that it seemed to be a person. So he was very happy to call Xiao Jin and said, "Xiao Jin, look, it seems to be a person over there." ”

Xiao Jin rolled his eyes, continued to crawl forward, and said casually, "What about people?" What we are looking for is to send Qingyi, not just someone. ”

Hongchen rubbed his eyes, stared at the person walking this way again, and said, "Hey, hey, Xiao Jin." ”

Xiao Jin was impatient, and said angrily: "Why do you make people talk so much?" ”

Hongchen was taken aback by Xiao Jin, and muttered aggrievedly: "I want to say, it seems that it is to send Qingyi over there." ”

Xiao Jin was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly turned his head to look not far away, and said while looking: "Where is there someone ......?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a group of people rushing in the direction of the woods. He grabbed the vine on the side to stabilize his body, looked at it carefully, and suddenly said in surprise; "It's indeed Qing'er."

When he was about to jump down, suddenly the tree vine seemed to be about to break, and it slid suddenly, Hongchen was startled, and hurriedly flew forward to catch Xiao Jin, but both of them fell into the water. Hongchen wasted his strength to pick up Xiao Jin, and after he fell into the water, he didn't think about going upstream, and sank to the bottom of the water as soon as he closed his eyes.

Xiao Jin turned around and didn't see the Hongchen man, he was suddenly stunned, and hurriedly dived into the water to take a look.

The river water contains a lot of sand, especially at the foot of the mountain, and it is even more turbid. There was nothing to see under the water, Xiao Jin was in a hurry, and vigorously waved away the turbid river in front of him, so that a half-open clear interface was formed in front of him.

Xiao Jin swam to the bottom, and caught a glimpse of red in front of him, so he hurriedly walked over and grabbed the red and fished it up, suddenly the water suddenly increased for some reason, and Xiao Jin dragged the red dust to swim hard. Finally swimming to the side of the mountain, Xiao Jin dragged Hongchen up with great difficulty, and then panted tiredly.

Xiao Jin gasped for a while, and when he saw that Hongchen still hadn't woken up, he patted his face and said, "Hongchen wake up, wake up!"

Xiao Jin frowned without reacting, stepped forward and touched his snort, it was still there. Xiao Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and lay Hongchen face down on the ground in a lying position, and then Xiao Jin slapped his back.

Saying that, Hongchen was so sleepy, and after drinking so much river water, he naturally couldn't stand being hit by Xiao Jin's indiscriminate bombardment, and he fainted again after just breathing out a few mouthfuls of water.

Xiao Jin didn't move, he raised his head and looked at Ji Qingyi and them not far away, thinking that he would just wait for them here.

So Xiao Jin wanted to put Hongchen on the flat ground on the side, he squinted his eyes and fell asleep.
