Chapter 63: It seems to be an old man
I shuddered, and folded my arms together, was it because I was dazzled?
After so many twists and turns, I am probably tired, maybe I was indeed mistaken just now. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but the image of that shadow always lingered in my mind, and I had a faint sense of foreboding.
In a trance, I felt like I was about to fall asleep, but I didn't want to disturb them, at this time, I believe that no one is more tired than me, in contrast, I feel a little guilty, I can't do anything, I can only make a mess.
Suddenly, a hand from behind me put a hand on my shoulder, and when I looked back, I saw Uncle Li sitting beside me a little tired, and said kindly: "You go back to sleep, just leave it to me here!" β
I shook my head and said, "No, I just came out, and I'm not sleepy." β
"Okay, then I'll accompany you, it's quite boring for you to sit alone." Uncle Li said to me with a smile.
Looking at this smile, I suddenly felt a warm current in my heart, I have never felt this way since my father died when I was a child, this kind of warmth and companionship is something I have never experienced.
At this moment, I felt as if I had suddenly felt a sense of security, like a wanderer who had finally returned to his homeland. I don't know what to say, I just want to enjoy it.
"Child, do you regret coming up with us?" He asked me softly, with a hint of hoarseness in his voice.
I didn't know how to answer him for a while, nodded my head, shook it quickly, and then lay on my knees in embarrassment, not daring to look at him.
"It's too late for you to go back now, I'll let Huazi send you." He said.
Hearing this, I became entangled, in fact, I was so seriously injured, I really didn't want to go any further, I wouldn't be able to die, but when I thought of all the previous experiences, I felt that it was too much of a loss to go back so empty-handed, and I came here, why not find out?!
Uncle Li saw that I was hesitant, and he didn't force it anymore, he sighed and looked a little helpless, and said: "Actually, there are many things you don't need to know, the less you know, the safer you are, we want to protect you for the purpose of protecting you, we stop you again and again, but you are more persistent than you imagined, you have to be strong, and we have no choice." β
I was confused, what protected me, what prevented me, where did I cling to it? I'm just trying to figure out what's going on!
I asked, "What are you trying to hide from me?" β
He looked at the sky and smiled slightly, and did not speak again, as if he thought that my question was very naΓ―ve, and I said in my heart that there was no need to pretend to be deep!
After a long time, he suddenly muttered softly, "You haven't changed at all!" β
Although the voice was small, I could hear it very clearly, and I didn't miss a single word. I was stunned, what does it mean that I haven't changed, have we met before?
I hurriedly asked, "What are you talking about?" β
Uncle Li twitched violently, as if he had woken up from a dream, but he was worthy of being an old man, and he quickly regained his composure, pretending to be calm and said, "No, I didn't say anything!" β
Looking at his expression, I felt very strange, this sentence was definitely something he inadvertently said, and generally what he said in this situation is the truth. Don't tell me we've actually met before! Either I have amnesia, or he's crazy, or he can't explain what he said.
My mind was in a state of confusion, I couldn't imagine what he was hiding from me, the secret seemed to be more confusing than I had ever realized, and if it hadn't been for his casual remarks, I'd never have known how complicated it was.
"You said I haven't changed at all, you must have seen me! What the hell is going on! "I was so anxious that I stomped my foot.
Uncle Li probably felt that it was difficult to collect the water, and wanted to divert the topic, but I was interrupted instantly, and I kept asking, but he just didn't say it, and I had no choice but to give up.
He is the same as Lao Hai, the secret he wants to keep, even if he is killed, he will not say it, it is estimated that Lao Hai learned it from him, but I finally have a little clue, at least I know that he must have known me before!
We were speechless for a moment, he took out a piece of jade pendant and handed it to me, which was carved with Pixiu, and I recognized at a glance that it was the piece that the fawn gave him, and asked, "What is this?" β
"Don't ask, just put it away, it should be useful in the future." He said.
I took the jade pendant and looked at him confusedly, not knowing what he wanted to do with this. I looked at the Pixiu, and I only felt that this jade pendant was so ordinary, and I couldn't guess his intentions at all.
At that moment, I suddenly smelled a burning smell, and then, the fire was everywhere, and we hurriedly turned around, and saw a thick smoke wafting from the cave, which made us cough incessantly.
Depend on! Caught fire?!
We hurried in, and saw that the clothes hanging on the fire were on fire, and by the way, we lit the backpack next to us, and a group of people were putting out the fire.
"Pull aside what isn't on fire first!" Uncle Li shouted.
Lao Hai took out the water bag and was about to pour it on the fire, but the black hook hurriedly pulled him and scolded: "Are you crazy?!" This is the water we drink! β
As he spoke, he took off his coat and put it on it, and kept beating, and after a while, the fire gradually decreased, and only the scattered flames were scattered everywhere.
Uncle Li hurriedly checked the backpack, but fortunately, everything inside was mostly intact, only some gauze and waterproof bags were burned beyond recognition.
We simply cleaned up, Lao Hai picked up the burnt clothes, stared at it distressedly, and said, "It's a false alarm, I'll come to see the fire at night, this cold day can't be without fire!" β
So everyone fell asleep one after another, and I also lay down tiredly, thinking about Uncle Li's words repeatedly in my mind, but I had no clue.
A wave of tiredness hit me, and I gradually closed my heavy eyes.
Half-asleep and half-awake, I only felt the jade pendant in my breast pocket heavy, and I was a little out of breath, so I turned over and turned to the side.
This side was wet, I don't know who was sleeping there, the snoring was very heavy, the exhaled air mixed with the damp saliva stars kept spraying on my face, the smell made me very uncomfortable.
This must be Lao Hai!
I was about to get up and pat him, but I found myself pressed down by something, lying on the ground unable to move, and my shoulder hurt terribly.
At first, I thought it was a ghost pressing the bed, but then a whisper came from my ear: "Don't move!" There's a rabbit in front of you! β
I suddenly sobered up a lot, and suddenly became nervous, and I squinted my eyes to see, and I saw a group of rabbits around us, and those cat faces were staring at us fiercely, with hatred in their eyes!
