The torrent of time continued to slide by, and every member of the team chose to rest in place for a deep rest and mental adjustment. Humans and wolves, two completely different creatures, coexist in this moment of tranquility, forming a unique landscape. However, due to the language barrier, coupled with the indelible defense of both sides in each other's hearts, they always keep a distance, close but far away.

At this moment, Ye Ning had no choice but to step forward and act as a translator between the two sides. His voice echoed through the empty ruins, and he used patience and strength to explain, to communicate, to reconcile contradictions. I hope to use his sincerity to influence every soul, so that they can let down their guards and accept each other's existence.

However, until night fell like a parachute and the sky sprinkled with stars began to dominate the earth, Ye Ning's efforts still did not seem to have achieved the desired effect. His sincerity, like a beam of light, seemed faint in the dark night, but it insisted on flickering, showing his determination and hope to all living beings.

As night fell, the hustle and bustle of the day was replaced by the silence of the night, and every tired star twinkled silently in the sky. After a long day of trekking through mountains and rivers, or foraging for food and hunting, every creature in the team was exhausted, and the energy in the body seemed to be completely squeezed out.

Although sleepiness swept over like waves, the vigilance between everyone and the wolves was like an invisible line of defense, firmly blocking their desire for comfort. In the dark night, their consciousness remained awake in a hurry, and their senses did not dare to relax at all, raising one hundred and twenty percent vigilance, for fear that the other party would suddenly launch a surprise attack.

In this atmosphere of mutual defensiveness and tension, people are waiting for a long time to find a chance to sleep, even if they have already fallen into a warm sleeping bag or huddled in a corner. Extreme vigilance makes it difficult for them to fall asleep, and only in the middle of the night, when fatigue overcomes vigilance, can they barely rely on the remaining strength to fall into a restless slumber.

And only Li Yishuang, a person with big nerves, can fall asleep early. Mainly because she always has an inexplicable sense of security, feeling that no one can hurt her. She was so unsuspecting that she forgot everything around her and barely fell asleep.

At some point in the middle of the night, Li Yishuang was driven by physiological needs to withdraw from her sleep. The warmth of the sleeping bag and the temptation of sleep had not yet been completely withdrawn, and her consciousness woke up hesitantly in the chaos. In the dim moonlight, she recognized the human and wolf in the ruins of the house, forming two clear boundaries, their resting areas far apart, like two parallel worlds, and realized what she was in.

Li Yishuang moved her body carefully, her gait light as a feather, as if she was afraid that her every move would wake up this sleepy creature. Like a night owl, she swept along the edge of the ruins, searching for a hidden corner to address a pressing physiological need.

However, when she stepped out of the doorless door and out of the dilapidated shell of the ruins, she was exposed to a bright starry sky and a quiet figure. Ye Ning was standing on the open ground at the moment, facing the starry sky, as if he was talking to the endless universe. Li Yishuang saw his back, looking lonely and resolute under the starlight, and at this moment, her heartbeat couldn't help but freeze.

"Someone came, it was the girl. You start by asking about the situation. Seeing this, Star Soul immediately accepted his small talk with Ye Ning and asked Ye Ning to deal with the matter in front of him first.

"Why do you wake up if you don't sleep in the middle of the night?" Ye Ning turned his head, looked at Li Yishuang, and asked gently.

Li Yishuang's voice was very low, and she was sure that she didn't make any noise, so she wondered, how could Ye Ning hear her voice and know that she had come to the door?

Li Yishuang didn't think about it, and said bluntly: "I drank too much water, so it's convenient to get up in the middle of the night." ”

"Okay, then you can go." Ye Ning immediately turned his head, continued to look at the stars, and said jokingly, "Don't worry, I won't peek at you." ”

Li Yishuang was speechless, but she didn't want to refute either, so she immediately found a quiet place to facilitate it for a while, and then walked back.

The moonlight sprinkled like water on the ruins, and the golden starlight poured down. Li Yishuang sat beside Ye Ning lightly and skillfully. Her amber eyes flashed with curiosity, and she gracefully stroked Ye Ning's shoulder, and the corners of her reddish lips curved into a silent smile.

\"Why don't you sleep at night, so leisurely to look at the starry sky? Her voice was as light as a feather, skimming the surface of the lake, plucking round and round ripples in the night. There was an affectionate and puzzled gaze in her eyes, she was so curious and puzzled about Ye Ning's many bewildering behaviors, and joked, "What is the charm of the starry sky that makes you love and linger, or do you also want to go to the moon to find a daughter-in-law?" ”

Ye Ning only sighed lightly, and at the same time revealed a hint of depression; "I'm upset......"

His tone was low and slow, like a tired traveler, pouring out his helplessness and confusion in the night: "Habitually looking at the starry sky, you may find some lonely comfort." The stars, they are always so tenacious...... Looking at them, I feel a moment of relief from the stress in my heart."

Ye Ning's words were made up temporarily, and he couldn't tell Li Yishuang that he came out to talk to the Star Soul. His words also deliberately avoid proving the answer to the question, directing the cause of his own contradiction to the stars.

But Li Yishuang took it seriously, and immediately went to Ye Ning's side, comforting Ye Ning and saying, "I know that you are worried because of that matter." However, please relax and don't carry the weight forward. Your desire to bring two very different races to life together is not something that can be achieved overnight. ”

"Just as fine water needs a long stream to chisel stones, and falling flowers need the four seasons to come to an end, all good things need time to nurture and grow. Even if two ordinary people who have never met before want to establish a sincere and deep friendship, they have to go through several days of mutual understanding and tempering. This interaction and understanding is like fine porcelain that needs to be fired countless times before it can shine. ”

"What's more, the peace you want is not the understanding between people, but the coexistence of races and groups, the connection between humans and wolves. It is a span that crosses races, crosses the laws of nature, and is more difficult than any kind of reconciliation within humanity, entangled in a presupposition higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea. ”

"So, relax! Everything that has meaning is worth our efforts and dedication. No matter what happens, I'll be there for you. ”

Ye Ning was stunned by Li Yishuang's words for a moment, but he immediately reacted to what Li Yishuang said and immediately said calmly: "Thank you." ”

And just at this moment, the voice of the star soul sounded in Ye Ning's ears: "Ye Ning, this is a good opportunity. I need to know how strong this girl really is. ”

Ye Ning turned his head to look at Li Yishuang, his eyes were like a calm lake, so deep that it was elusive. His mind was full of stars, his thoughts were misty, and he pondered how to test Li Yishuang's ability strength tactfully and politely.

While maintaining respect and etiquette, she deliberately explores the extent of Li Yishuang's ability. He didn't want to openly reveal his inner doubts, and he didn't want to directly state the purpose of his trip. He knew that if Li Yishuang's abilities exceeded his expectations, then she might be out of his control in the future.

Ye Ning knew that if Li Yishuang's ability was stronger than herself, she might not be able to control her in the future, which was also the point that the star soul was most afraid of, but the star soul had not been able to invade Li Yishuang's mind until now.

Everything is possible, and before it was known, Ye Ning did not have the slightest fear. These thoughts surged in Ye Ning's mind like a tide, but he suppressed them one by one, not allowing the slightest emotion to be revealed.

After thinking for a moment, a relaxed smile rolled into the corner of his mouth, as if he had already solved the mystery in his heart. He said to Li Yishuang gently and naturally, "Yishuang, open your palms." ”

Ye Ning's voice contained a calm that was happy but not restless, as if it was just an inconsequential matter, and it was almost impossible to detect the expectation in his heart.

When Li Yishuang heard Ye Ning's words, she couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in her heart. I was talking about that topic just now, why did you suddenly change the subject? Still such a strange topic.

Her eyes flickered, unable to capture the intention behind Ye Ning's words, and she was determined to figure out the unknown deep meaning. However, she has absolute trust in Ye Ning, who is more like a friend than an instructor in her daily life. No matter what, she has a deep trust in Ye Ning, which is a trust that comes from respect, and it is also a trust that trusts her choice.

Moreover, Li Yishuang's trust has always been unconditional, as long as the relationship is good enough, she can trust the other party unconditionally, and she has not suffered a loss so far, and she is still so. After all, Li Yishuang's character is like this, kind and straightforward, calm as water, and crystal clear.

After just thinking about it briefly, he put aside the confusion in his heart for a while, and chose to trust Ye Ning, ignoring all kinds of worries about his abilities. She nodded slightly, and stretched out her palm, which was as white as jade, with no disobedience on her face.

Li Yishuang gently opened her palm, and her five fingers spread out at will, soft and firm. The palm was delicate, extremely white, with slender fingers, full of strength and flexibility, like a blooming lotus, quietly appearing in front of her, showing her elegance.
