The three words "I'm sorry" pierced my heart like a sharp needle, but like a spring breeze caressing my blood and bone marrow, forcibly extinguishing the flames surging in my body.

As soon as the cold wind blew, I couldn't help but shiver.

Ling Kai on the other side was still looking at me, the sword in his hand was still not put away, and the blue light like water waves rippled between the heavens and the earth, just like my fluctuating mood at the moment. Although he didn't give me any explanation, for some reason, deep down I still chose to believe that he had a hard time, and if I don't say it now, it's just the wrong time, and he will tell me sooner or later!

Closing my eyes, I took a deep breath, the cold silence of the cold night mixed with the smell of earth and grass flowed into my body with a slight bitter taste, all the way to the bottom of my heart.

It is said that women in love are stupid, and it is true.

When I opened my eyes again, my tumbling mind had completely calmed down, and I resolutely turned and walked towards the camp.

Behind me, there was the sound of his heavy footsteps, I didn't dare to look back, for fear that he still had a sword in his hand, staring at me coldly, for the silver-haired old man who escaped, he was really willing to hurt me!

The footsteps involuntarily quickened, almost running, and the sun and moon condensed into the shape of a fountain pen with my thoughts, and I held it tightly, my palms full of sweat.

When I returned to the camp, I still didn't look back at Ling Kai, who had followed me all the way, and went straight into the tent, zipped up and fell weakly under the covers.

That night, I was destined to be sleepless, and the knot between me and Ling Kai was destined to accumulate deeper and deeper.

In the early morning of the second day, I heard Li Hongxun's call, reluctantly opened my eyes, looked at the green tent for a long time, got up with cold hands and feet, opened the tent, and looked at Ling Kai who was packing things opposite, and my heart unconsciously felt a little cold.

After the four of them quickly packed up their things, they continued to move towards the "Ghost Gate", the dense forest was deep, and the pace of walking startled countless small beasts in the forest and birds perched on the trees overhead, breaking the death-like silence, but it could not arouse the temperature in my body.

Sensing that Ling Kai's expressions were wrong, Li Hongxun and Qin Rui didn't speak all the way, and the four of them walked silently, until I suddenly sank under my feet when I was absent-minded, and something seemed to be pulling desperately in the soft soil, instantly submerging to my knees, I didn't wake up, and hurriedly reached out to grab the weeds next to me.

Unfortunately, the weeds seemed solid, but they couldn't withstand the toss, and I pulled hard, tearing off a large mass in an instant, and the speed at which I fell into the dirt did not slow down at all, I finally became nervous, and opened my mouth to shout, "Help." ”

Startled by my voice, the three people who were originally rushing with their heads bowed quickly withdrew, and in my chaotic gaze, Ling Kai's figure flashed, he quickly grabbed my wrist with his hand, threw it backhand, and the slender iron lock flying out of his sleeve flew out, entangled the nearest big tree with great accuracy.

Ding, a dull sound sounded, the iron hook at the end of the iron lock was deeply embedded in the middle of the tree trunk, I felt the sinking body suddenly shake, and finally stopped sinking, and the heart hanging in my throat finally returned to its original place.

Raising my head, I looked at Ling Kai who was close at hand, the tension and worry that could not be concealed in his deep eyebrows touched my heartstrings again, the wet mist inexplicably surged into my eyes, and the originally low mood instantly warmed up again.

Ling Kai didn't have time to look at me, he looked around, as if looking for a strong support point, otherwise if he pulled me up too hard, it might backfire or sink him into the mud together.

I looked down and saw that the soft mud had submerged my waist, and my legs were completely covered in mud, and I couldn't use any strength at all. And when I wanted to move towards the ground with a little strength, my body immediately fell down a few points, so frightened that I didn't dare to move anymore, and the wrist held by Ling Kai in his hand trembled uncontrollably.

"I'm here, it's fine." Sensing my nervousness, he whispered, his gaze searching again.

"Need our help?" Not far away, Li Hongxun's voice came, her expression was very worried, and the concern in her eyes was clear at a glance.

Qin Rui stood far away, looking at me calmly, I didn't blame them in my heart, because I knew very well that they were afraid that they would accidentally fall into the swamp, but instead drag Ling Kai who was rescuing me.

The power of nature cannot be ignored, and no matter how powerful you may be, it is useless in this place.

"No need," Ling Kai lightly refused, his fingers were slightly forced, but he didn't exert too much force, I knew that he was testing the strength of the soil, so as not to backfire, I wanted to try to make myself as easy as possible, but there was no way to suppress the fear of death in his heart, his fingers were already stiff.

It turns out that people are afraid of death, and I myself am no exception, at this time, when I think back to the past when I was going to give up my life in order not to affect others, I suddenly feel like a different life, as if that person is not the same person I used to be.

Recruiting Ran, Ling Kai's feet slipped, and his body involuntarily pressed towards my position, startling my brain blank, his face turned pale, Qin Rui also screamed, Li Hongxun's reaction was very fast, with a stroke of his right hand, a red silk flew out of her sleeve like lightning, and wrapped around Ling Kai's arm, she pulled hard, Ling Kai also took the opportunity to take two steps back, barely stabilizing his body, this did not really press on my body, but I was afraid, trembling all overwhelmed.

Ling Kai looked at the mud puddle that slipped out of his feet, his brows furrowed, and only after a while did he turn back to Li Hongxun and say, "Pull Yun Ya out now, you must pull her down." ”

"Don't worry." Li Hongxun nodded, his expression extremely determined.

I looked at Ling Kai, although his expression was fine, but there was a deep reluctance in his eyes, and it was gone in the blink of an eye, so fast that I thought that what I had just seen was just an illusion.

But I soon felt that something was not quite right with this matter, his glimmer of gaze was by no means my illusion, but my mind was in chaos, and I couldn't think of anything wrong at all, so at this moment, Ling Kai's hand pulled hard, and the powerful force pulled me out of the mud pit.

When my body flew into the air uncontrollably, Li Hongxun had already withdrawn the red silk wrapped around Ling Kai's wrist, and instead wrapped it around my waist, the moment I was pulled by her, I saw Ling Kai lose his center of gravity out of the corner of my eye, and his feet slipped heavily, and the whole person fell towards the deep pit where we had just fallen.

I was in a hurry, and hurriedly turned around and waved my arm vigorously to pull him, but unfortunately Li Hongxun was also pulling hard, and she was on the ground and I was in mid-air, there was no suspense about the difference in strength, my arm could only cross the boundless air, and even the corners of Ling Kai's clothes could not be touched, and there was a strong dull pain in my heart, and my voice trembled and shouted, "Ling Kai!" ”
