Luo Yan and Youlan gathered by the fire to keep warm at this time, although the two of them are penniless now, but fortunately, the clothes are still neat, and it is not so difficult to get together next to the fire.

It's just that neither of them dares to sleep, for fear that someone will chase them, and second, for fear that there will be some fierce beasts in this wood, and either of these two possibilities can kill them at any time.

So in this long night, in order not to let himself fall asleep, Luo Yan and Youlan chatted for a while.

Although the two have known each other for some days, it is really the first time to talk like today, and it is not a blessing or anything, just to survive.

Luo Yan has never been out of Qujing City, so in addition to the things in Qujing City, she doesn't know anything about it, of course, she also knows some things in the painting book, but those stories are virtual and real, and they can't be counted.

Youlan knew less than Luo Yan except for the Medicine King Valley and those herbal medicine skills, so the conversation between the two was just about telling each other about the place where they lived.

Luo Yan is still curious about the Medicine King Valley, after all, this place has not even been mentioned in the painting book, let alone knowing the details, taking advantage of this opportunity, I want to ask in detail.

Youlan looked at Luo Yan's starry eyes dyed by the jumping firelight, and finally spoke: "In my memory, Yaowang Valley is a paradise, although it is surrounded by mountains and forests, but there is a family and a clan, which is happiness for me. ”

"The summit of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, and the melted water turns into a small river that passes through the valley floor and through the woods. When I was a child, apart from studying medicine, my favorite thing was to catch fish in the river. ”

As if recalling something good, the corners of Youlan's mouth unconsciously rose slightly, and her eyes looked at the night sky in a daze.

"My father was very strict with me, and I remember that my father rarely smiled at me and kept a straight face all the time, so I was very afraid of my father when I was a child."

"Mother is different, mother is gentle with everyone, so the clan will tell the mother when there is something, and let the mother convey it to the father. When I was a child, I was the same, and I always asked for anything to my mother. ”

Speaking of this, Youlan seemed to have some reflections in the corners of her eyes, but she was still smiling, smiling gently, smiling...... sad

"My father doesn't smile or smile, but my mother is not afraid of him, and sometimes she will discipline my father, so I admired my mother very much when I was a child, and I think my mother is very powerful."

"It wasn't until one time, when I was trapped in the miasma forest because I was playful, that I realized that my father loved me."

Youlan said slowly, it seemed that every word and every detail was cherished to her.

"That day, I finished the homework assigned by my father early, and because I didn't dare to tell my father that I wanted to go out, I had to go to grind my mother. My mother was discussing things with her people, and maybe she didn't hear it clearly, so she nodded and agreed to me. ”

"I was very happy at that time, so I went to play in the small river, and it happened that the snow on the mountain melted quickly on a sunny day in those days, so the river flowed much faster than usual."

"I was only 5 years old at the time, and I was squatting in the river to play, and I accidentally fell into the river, which was not very deep, but it was a bit difficult for me."

With that, Youlan raised her hand and stretched out her wrist.

By the light of the fire, Luo Yan vaguely saw that there was a scar there, although it was not obvious, but if you looked closely, you could still see that the color of the skin was slightly different from that next to it.

"The force of the river made it almost difficult for me to get up, and the stones in the water slashed my wrists, and blood came out, and by the time I came to my senses, I had already slipped from the river next to the valley gate into the woods."

"And then?" , Luo Yan asked.

"Don't worry, geese."

Youlan looked at Luo Yan with a smile, patted Luo Yan's head like a big sister, thought for a while and continued: "The miasma in the miasma forest does not dissipate all year round, and in the three hours between noon and evening, the miasma will disperse, so the clansmen will enter the woods to collect medicine within these three hours. ”

"It was already unitary time when I went out that day, and by the time I got to the woods, the miasma had begun to form. In fact, this miasma is not unsolvable, you only need to take the pill in advance and you will be fine. ”

"But who would take that medicine every day? So my life was hanging by a thread, and to be honest, I thought I was going to do that. The blood on my hands was not stopping, and I was running out of strength at that time, and it was impossible for me to run back into the valley before the miasma spread. ”

Thinking of this, Youlan sighed and continued: "When I was about to give up, I heard my father's voice, because of the miasma, the fire my father lit seemed almost invisible to me, and I thought I was hallucinating at that time. ”

Speaking of this, Youlan's tears fell unconsciously, sniffed, and then continued to speak: "When my father came to me, I saw the panic in my father's eyes in a trance, and I always thought that my father's face would have no other expression except seriousness. ”

"But that day I knew I was wrong, my father's face seemed sad and worried, and his voice trembled a little when he called my name. I was already a little unconscious at that time, so I could only respond subconsciously. ”

"I just felt like something was being stuffed in my mouth and then I was picked up. When I opened my eyes again, I was already in my bed. ”

Youlan's eyes were filled with infinite nostalgia, and her voice trembled a little at this time, but she didn't stop, and still recalled: "When I opened my eyes, I saw my father's face full of surprise, and my father's eyes were bloodshot, and I didn't know until later that my father had been guarding my bedside, waiting for me to wake up. ”

"That was also the first time, my father was angry with my mother, and my mother stood by my bed with red and swollen eyes, and my heart was full of guilt at that time, and I only blamed myself for being playful and ignorant, which made my father and mother worried."

Speaking of this, Youlan touched the scar, was silent for a while, and said: "My father saved me at that time, but I failed to fulfill my filial piety for them after all, if I hadn't run out of the valley at that time, at least I could still be with them now, whether it is life or death." ”

Luo Yan felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this, she didn't want to make Youlan sad, this would be to blame herself, if it weren't for her damn curiosity, Sister Lan wouldn't be sad.

She didn't know how to persuade her, and the comforting words she said were just self-deception.

Luo Yan leaned closer to Youlan, her face was solemn and silent, there was no empathy in this world, and she didn't have this kind of twists and turns, so all she could do at this moment was to accompany Youlan to be silent.
