Although I couldn't laugh or cry, I believed it.

Because, in line with human nature.

Standing in the doorway, I weighed it for a moment.

Although Monan is only a county seat, it is a deserted place, after all, it is a minority.

The only place I can think of is Qilin Mountain.

I tried not to think about the bears in the mountains, gritted my teeth, and stomped my feet: "Let's go!"

Entering the mountains late at night is a taboo.

First, the road conditions are unfamiliar and it is easy to get lost.

Second, most of the mountain poisons are diurnal and nocturnal, which is more dangerous.

When he arrived at the bottom of the mountain, Ji Canghai took out the mountain knife without saying a word, cut down a large section of tree branches, and used it as a trekking pole to explore the way.

I untied my belt and locked Chen Jiayan's wrist with the metal buckle, and held the other end in my hand.

Xiaobai, a heartless and lungless goods, doesn't know what we're going to go through, just chattering and jumping.

"Poof!"

Xiaobai jumped up high, and then saw that he had fallen into a puddle.

I suddenly felt like my head was big.

Ji Canghai stretched out the branch and wanted to pull him out, but I stopped him.

I bent down and said, word by word, "Please, be quiet."

"Okay, okay." Xiaobai tossed a few times in the water: "You save me first."

I gave Ji Canghai a look, and Xiaobai crawled out.

"Where the hell are we going?"

Obviously, the puddle didn't shut the talker.

I replied impatiently, "Mushroom picking!"

"Oh."

He nodded in agreement, and he didn't know if he was distracted.

When I reached the halfway point of the slope, I took out my compass and looked at it carefully.

Feng Shui is not only about looking at the yin house, but also about the surrounding environment.

I'm not looking at feng shui, but I'm trying to determine the geographical location of this place, such as leeward and sunny.

Xiaobai leaned over and asked curiously, "Are we going to rob the tomb?"

I stared at the compass and whispered in response.

"Erhai, beat him."

"Don't don't, I'm not talking."

I looked back and forth, "That's it."

Ji Canghai threw down his backpack and stuffed the electric baton into my hand.

"I'm going to build a shed."

I quickly stood up: "Let's go."

Ji Canghai blocked me with a smile, and glanced at Chen Jiayan again.

"You're not good at it, so let's rest!"

After a pause, he pointed his finger at Xiaobai: "You go with me!"

"I—I'm not doing it!"

Ji Canghai pinched the joints of his hands and squeaked: "***......"

"Go, go, I'll go!"

Looking at Xiaobai's aggrieved appearance, I couldn't help but smile.

"Erhai, don't bully him."

"Don't worry."

After the two of them left, only Chen Jiayan and I were left silent.

She sat on her knees and unbuckled the belt buckle from her hand, "You can just talk nonsense about what I said in the water prison."

I was stunned and nodded silently.

I know why Ji Canghai had to drag Xiaobai away.

He's leaving us both a little time.

After a while, she lowered her head and said again: "In the future, you will take care of me everywhere."

"I deserve it."

I squeezed out a smile, "It's right for everyone to be together and take care of each other."

"It's not." Chen Jiayan looked up at me, "You have given me the feeling of home, but you are not willing to give me a real home."

"It's like a carrot in front of a donkey. It's always in front of you, but you can't get it."

I didn't expect her to be clear again.

I know very well how much courage it takes for a girl who has always been an introvert to spread these words out.

I was a little speechless for a while, and I was silent for a long time.

Forget it, Ji Canghai vacated all the places.

Why don't I be more straightforward, so as not to make each other uncomfortable.

"I never thought there would be a girl willing to come near me, I ......"

Before I could speak, Chen Jiayan interrupted first: "I didn't think that anyone would be willing to take care of me."

I sighed, "You could have a better choice, you don't have to spend it on me."

"Hmm," she tugged at the grass on the ground and nodded, "Forget it, don't talk about it."

I wanted to get it through, but I didn't expect her to stop suddenly.

The night breeze slipped by, speechless.

I've never envied the powerful who have had a smooth sailing.

But at this moment, I suddenly became envious.

At this time, Ji Canghai and Xiaobai walked back with a handful of branches.

I looked at Xiaobai, who looked like a mud monkey, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? You're beating him again?"

Ji Canghai glared at him helplessly: "The thing that lacks the heart and eyes has to pick the fruit."

Xiaobai stretched out his dirty hand and handed me a few fruits.

"You taste it."

An inexplicable warm current rose in my heart, and I nodded gratefully, "Thank you."
