"It's not time to go to bed yet."

"You need to be stronger."

A word came to Ye Ziqing's mind, and in a trance, he seemed to see a figure, he wanted to reach out to touch it, but he couldn't touch it, and then the figure disappeared from front of him, and then he felt that he had fallen into a big hole, and he was at a loss.

Suddenly he opened his eyes and looked around panting. I saw that I was in a small room full of medicinal smells, and there was a fire rising from the fireplace in front of me, and from time to time there was a 'rattling' sound of wood being burned, and then I saw that my grandfather, the village chief, and the master were sitting on chairs and falling asleep next to me. Ye Ziqing looked at the ceiling and closed his eyes again, took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, and asked in his heart after opening his eyes again.

"Is it all over?"

I wanted to support myself with my hands, but my body was so sore that Ye Ziqing accidentally 'hummed' and woke up the village chief beside me. The village chief hurriedly opened his eyes when he heard the strange noise, and looked at his precious grandson if something had happened. When the village chief saw Ye Zi sober up, his face instantly swept over the previous sad face, and his smile bloomed.

"Ziqing, you've finally woken up. Does it still hurt? ”

Seeing that his village chief grandfather woke up and worried about himself, Ye Ziqing smiled and said, "There is nothing wrong anymore, it's just that it's still a little sore." ”

The village chief hurriedly helped Ye Ziqing and let him lean his back against the bed.

"Nonsense, you don't have a good skin all over your body, and you're covered in blood, how can you be okay."

Ye Ziqing looked at his whole body, except for his face, he was wrapped in gauze from head to toe, and he could only laugh so as not to worry his grandfather.

"Grandpa, don't you see I'm still alive?"

"If the wolf king hadn't asked the other wolves to scavenge for medicinal herbs from the forest, you see you would still be able to say that."

Hearing the wolf king, Ye Ziqing hurriedly asked, "Is the wolf king okay?" And what about a thousand shadows? ”

"Looking at the situation of the wolves, there shouldn't be any problems, as for the thousand shadows you said, it's probably fine."

"What about Randy?" Ye Ziqing asked cautiously.

"He—" The village chief shook his head.

"Grandpa, what's going on with Randy?" Ye Ziqing asked anxiously.

"He's fine, he's resting in his house."

Ye Ziqing breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, relieved himself and asked, "Grandpa, where is my weapon?" ”

"It's all out there for you to keep in good place. As for your right-hand weapon, it disappeared from your arm in the blink of an eye as soon as we carried you into the room. ”

Ye Zi counted and opened his equipment slot and found that the name of his hidden weapon was still ??? , muttered in his heart: It seems that this hidden martial arts still hasn't met the conditions to appear, as for what the vague figure said at that time, is it his own hallucination? Ye Ziqing, who couldn't figure it out, could only shake his head, hoping to sort out this series of things in the future.

"I told Old Man Ma to go to the place where you fought, and it was a tragic battlefield as he said. The trees were uprooted, the soil was turned over several layers, and blood was splattered everywhere. There was also a large, headless, red and black snake body with a hole in its belly. What's really going on there? ”

Hearing that there was only the corpse of the Red Tempered Horned Python, it was probably the wolf king who brought back the corpse of his companion.

"Grandpa is actually such a ......"

Ye Ziqing told his village chief grandfather everything that happened, and talked about it carefully without reservation.

"You still don't care so much about your own life, what if you have three long and two short, what do you call me?"

"Grandpa, you know I'm not from this world. You can be resurrected from the dead under the protection of the so-called gods in your mouth, but you don't have one life, and I don't want to see any of you get hurt and die, I really like everybody, I like this kind of place. ”

Ye Ziqing lowered his head and couldn't help but shed tears, while the village chief stroked his head and looked at him with a smile.

"Silly boy, it doesn't matter if you are in this world or not, no matter how many times you can be resurrected, but life is precious. Everyone should take it seriously and cherish their own life. It's not an item, it's not a bargaining chip, it's a life. I don't know what it feels like to die, but I've lived so long, and I know that death is definitely not liberation, it makes the dead regretful, it makes the living miserable. So you have to look at your life as if it were the last time, not thinking about how to use it. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Ye Ziqing choked up, and the tears couldn't stop flowing.

"You don't need to say I'm sorry, but I'm going to say thank you on behalf of all the villagers. If it weren't for you, our problems wouldn't have been solved, and if it wasn't for your hard work, we wouldn't have gone back to the carefree we had before. You have changed all this, we didn't know the wolves before, and they didn't know us either, but after getting to know you, they all got to know each other more or less, and even put aside their barriers to unite against the enemy, which is the result of your efforts. You have made everyone see hope, less obsession, less prejudice, and finally let everyone understand that unity will eventually overcome difficulties. ”

"That's what I'm supposed to do. If you treat me as family, then I should do my best to help my family. ”

"That's right, kid, I really didn't see the wrong person."

The village chief continued to stroke Ye Ziqing's head, and Ye Ziqing looked at the village chief sincerely and smiled.

"Actually, I still have something to hide from my grandfather."

The village chief looked at the leaves questioningly, please.

"Actually, my real name is Ye Ziqing, it's my name over there. I didn't mean to hide it from you, I just wanted to change my name and have a new life. ”

After hearing this, the village chief smiled and said, "Ye Ziqing is a good name, but I only know a stinky boy named Ling Ziqing here, and he is still my good grandson." ”

"Yes, Grandpa. My name is Ling Ziqing, and I am a good grandson of my grandfather. ”

The two laughed, and Marbo, who was asleep on the side, was woken up, rubbing his eyes and yawning.

"What is the old man laughing at? Woke me up. As soon as Ma Bo finished speaking, he looked at Ye Zi lying on the bed and woke up and shouted happily: "Stinky boy, you finally woke up." It's okay now, tell me what's going on? ”

The two of them watched as Ma Bo was still jumping up and down, and laughed even louder.

"You old naughty boy, it's the same at all times." The village chief laughed.

Fresh breakfast, the sun shining through the air into the pharmacy hut, standing at the door of a cloth coat, with a gauze tied to his body, Ye Ziqing, limping towards Randy's house. When he arrived at Randy's door, Ye Ziqing began to feel at a loss, not knowing how to face Randy and Lily, muttering at the door and rehearsing the conversation. In the house, Lily is still feeding white porridge to Randy, who has woken up, and when she hears a sound at the door, she asks Lily to open the door to greet her.

As soon as Lily opened the door and saw Ye Ziqing who was tied with gauze all over her body, she was stunned for a while, and Ye Ziqing was stunned when she saw Lily suddenly open the door, so the two stood silently at the door, and then said "I'm sorry" in unison and began to look at each other and laugh.

"Who's Lily?"

"It's Brother Ziqing here!" Lily yelled into the room, so she let Ye Ziqing into the house, took it to Randy's bedside, and moved a stool for Ye Ziqing.

Randy, who was still in bed, was very happy to see Ye Ziqing, got up and hugged Ye Ziqing and said, "I didn't expect you to be alive, I thought you were going to accompany me on the road." ”

Ye Ziqing smiled and said helplessly: "I also wonder, why doesn't hell accept you and me?" ”

Lily covered her mouth with her hand and laughed, "How can you two curse yourself like this." ”

"Are you alright, Ling Ziqing. If Lily hadn't insisted on letting me have a good rest last night, I would have gone straight to accompany you. ”

"I'm not a patient, so what are you doing with me. It's better to pay more attention to yourself, an old bone still has to be so desperate. ”

"What an old bone, I'm only 31 years old. If you weren't in danger, I wouldn't care. You tied it like a big dumpling, and you said you weren't a patient. After speaking, he poked Ye Ziqing's chest.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts. I'm not welcome to do so. ”

The two eldest people frolicked like children, forgetting the previous life and death parting, and were happy. Lily was glad to be watching them.

"Brother, you're like this, today's lunch is gone. Brother Ziqing, let's eat here at noon."

Ye Ziqing nodded in response, while Randy sighed and said, "The female is not in the middle." ”

"Brother!"

The happy time at noon was fleeting, and Ye Ziqing walked in the direction of the forest after saying goodbye.

The forest is still lush and dense, and one or two small snakes can be seen, but they no longer actively attack humans, but quickly flee from this place when they hear a strange noise. Ye Ziqing, who was panting and roaming in this forest with a wooden stick, looked around.

"I'm so tired, I don't know how long it will take. However, this is also the only way to appreciate the charm of this forest, and in reality, you can't see such a tall and magnificent forest sea at all. ”

After finishing speaking, he continued to stroll in this forest, and after walking for a while, he heard a sound in the distance, and Ye Ziqing didn't care.

"Finally came to pick me up."

A black wolf, a little smaller than Chikage, emerged from the bushes in front of him.

"The Wolf King asked me to pick you up, Lord Ling Ziqing."

"Let's call me Ling Ziqing, listening to the word adult, I twisted."

The little black wolf nodded and rushed to the wolf's den with Ye Ziqing. As soon as he entered the wolf's den, he saw a huge pile of stones piled up next to him, and immediately rushed over and bowed his head in silence, and the wolf king also walked slowly from behind.

"Every time you come, it makes this king feel incredible."

"They are heroic, and I can only stand here remembering them." Ye Ziqing said with a little sadness on his face, and then turned his head to look at the little black wolf who had come to the wolf's den with him in the distance.

"Is the little black wolf a child of the black wolf?"

"Yes."

"One day it will become a fighter like its own father."

The Wolf King stared at Ling Ziqing as if he saw the figure of that person, and fell into memory.

"Wolf King, what about a thousand shadows? Is it okay? ”

"It's fine, it's just that the body hasn't recovered yet, and it can't come out."

Ye Ziqing sighed and said, "Really? It's okay, I've done what I should have done, I've asked when I've asked. Then I'll go back. ”

After speaking, he limped outside, and the little black wolf wanted to send Ye Ziqing back but he refused.

"No need to send it, I still want to see around here."

The Wolf King looked at his figure, and kept recalling that long memory in his mind.

"Don't you have to send him off?"

Chikage stepped out of the room, staring outside, not saying a word.

"He's leaving tomorrow, don't you go and see him?"

Qianying, who had been staring ahead, recalled the days with Ling Ziqing in the past few days, although it was hard, but he felt very happy, he should have stayed in the wolf's den to protect his clan, but when he saw him leaving, he wanted to chase after him. Thinking of this, Chikage's front paws lifted slightly upward, wanting to step forward, but as soon as he stepped down, he hesitated, and finally turned around and slowly walked back to the depths of the cave.

"I want you to go out with him." The Wolf King said.

Chikage didn't reply, just silently returned to the depths of the cave.

After Ye Ziqing returned to the village, he went to find the village chief's grandfather and master, sat and chatted for a while, and then left the offline in a hurry. Ye Ziqing, who got up from the bed and sat on the edge of the bed, rubbed his eyes, but his eyes were uncontrollable and cried silently.

"Why should I cry? Obviously, the task is accomplished. ”

Listening to the raindrops outside gently lapping on the window, there was only one man in the room crying alone and quietly. I don't know how long it took, Ye Ziqing wiped away the corners of his tears, took a deep breath, and covered the corners of his mouth with his hand as if he was laughing, but this smile carried loneliness and emptiness.

"Okay, hurry up and eat and rest, I have to go to Huangqi City tomorrow." After speaking, Ye Ziqing went to wash, put a towel on his eyes, stood in the bathroom for a long time, soaked a bowl of noodles and went to sleep after eating.

The sun was rising, but today's light was unexpectedly soft, the sky was blue, and clouds of cotton wool hung in the sky. There was a small village on the ground that lit wisps of green smoke, and the entrance of the village was crowded with villagers who had come to see them off. The village chief took Ye Ziqing's hand, his eyes were red with tears, and carefully told Ye Ziqing to pay attention to safety.

"I will, Grandpa. Don't cry, didn't you say it yesterday, you have to be happy. ”

"Old bearded man, don't cry. It's not a bad thing, Ling Ziqing is going to a broader world, he should be happy. ”

Although Ma Bo said that he was smiling on his face, he was still reluctant in his heart, and kept tidying up the set of wild boar leather armor on Ye Ziqing's body.

"Don't forget my master when you go outside, if you can't get along, you will come back, this will always be your home, remember?"

"Master, thank you." Ye Ziqing nodded with a smile.

Ye Ziqing came to Randy and Lily and joked, "Randy, I'm leaving." Don't die again, there won't be a miracle medicine to save you next time. ”

"You are, remember not to die, I'm not by your side." Randy smiled, Ye Ziqing also smiled, and finally the two hugged each other.

"Thank you, Big Brother Randy."

"Little brother, you have to take care."

"Brother Ziqing, you have a smooth journey." Lily looked at Ye Ziqing from the side and said.

"I will, Lily. Your cooking is really delicious, and you will definitely become a personal favorite chef in the future. ”

Lily nodded after hearing this, blushed and looked at Ye Ziqing shyly and said, "This is for you, please be sure to accept it." Lily held out her hand, and in her hand was a silver-white necklace.

Ye Ziqing smiled after being startled for a moment, picked up the silver-white necklace and brought it with it.

"It's beautiful, Lily, thank you."

Lily's face was as red as an apple, and Randy on the side was also surprised and said loudly, "Lily, you are too eccentric too." As your brother, I have never confiscated any gifts. ”

Lily slapped her brother and said like an adult, "I'm not satisfied with my meal, brother." Then the two siblings began to argue.

The atmosphere that was originally very sad instantly burst into laughter when the two brothers and sisters were arguing.

"Alright, it's time to say goodbye. Then don't send it anymore, Ling Ziqing is here to say goodbye to everyone. ”

After bowing to everyone, Ye Ziqing walked into the distance, crying as he walked, not wanting everyone to see that he was uncomfortable, so he walked faster and faster, but soon stopped and stood in place. The village chief, Ma Bo, Randy, Lily, Tie Fan, and Uncle Wen were all looking at Ye Ziqing standing in the distance at the entrance of the village.

At this time, Ye Ziqing suddenly turned around and shouted to everyone: "Thank you all for this time." Let a kid like me feel the warmth of home, I really like Yunyou Village and I really want to continue to stay with everyone. When I've settled my own affairs, I'll definitely come back and come back to live with everyone. ”

"We are waiting for you, remember, you must come back!" Randy shouted.

Everyone waved their hands and shouted "We are waiting for you", Ye Ziqing waved goodbye to everyone with tears in his eyes, and finally looked at the sky in the distance and walked confidently in the direction of the prompt. Before he walked for a while, a wolf with a dark blue body as tall as a human appeared on the road, and when he looked at it, it turned out to be a thousand shadows, and when he saw Ye Ziqing, he immediately ran over. A man and a wolf hugged each other instantly, Qianying kept licking him, and Ye Ziqing was also happily rubbing Qianying's soft fur.

"Chikage, why are you here? Are you here to see me off? ”

Qianying shook his head, looked at Ye Ziqing's eyes and said, "I'm here to follow you." ”

"Are you sure? What about the wolves? You are gone, the wolf king knows? ”

"I'm pretty sure the wolf king has agreed, and I want to go out with you to see the world."

"Then Qianying, you will be my partner from now on. No matter how difficult it may be, I'm sure both of us will be able to get over it. ”

Ye Ziqing happily stroked Qianying, and finally rode on Qianying and shouted "go" and ran forward, running towards the unknown sky and the wonderful world.

In the distance, the wolf king led the wolves to howl at the sky to bid farewell to Ye Ziqing and Qianying. Looking at this distant man and wolf, the wolf king remembered his former self.

"Xiaolan, how about I say I buried the medicine here?"

"Hmph, I didn't eat it after I worked so hard, and I had to use it to save people, and now this one has to be buried."

"Don't be so indifferent, this medicine can also save people, what if there is a fool like me in the future."

"This medicine can greatly increase one's strength permanently, and it is a complete waste to save people."

"Alright, Blue. It's our first day as partners, so let me ride you. ”

"No, absolutely not."

"Hey... If you don't let it, don't let it, don't run, I can't run away from you, wait for me! ”

The wolf king looked at the sky and said slowly: "That day was the same as today, it was also a long journey of one man and one wolf. ”
