The two just looked at each other directly, and the atmosphere was inexplicably different.

The girl was stunned for a long time.

Even though she had thought about how to save Xu Huaigu thousands of times before, she didn't expect how to face him who suddenly woke up at this time.

Seeing that Xu Huaigu didn't speak, she thought that he was too seriously injured and had not yet healed and couldn't speak, so she had to take the lead in breaking the silence and explaining: "Ahem...... That, you were seriously injured in the Astragalus Mountains before, but my father met you when he was out hunting, and brought you back. ”

Xu Huaigu looked at the girl's clear eyes, and there didn't seem to be any fraud.

He wanted to thank her very much, but he couldn't move because of his injuries, so he could only solemnly say, "Thank you and your father for saving me, I will repay you in the future." ”

The girl hurriedly waved her hand and said seriously, "You don't have to thank us. To be honest, it's the first time I've seen you with such a serious injury, and I thought you wouldn't be able to survive, but you still woke up, and you survived it yourself. As for repayment, we just hope that you will survive and not covet anything. ”

The girl's mind is indeed as she said, there are no other thoughts, all from the heart, Xu Huaigu was very moved after hearing it.

The world is too chaotic, and more people think about how to benefit themselves, and such kindness is rare.

She reminded: "My father went up to the mountains yesterday to hunt, and he won't be back until a few days, so you can rest here for the time being." ”

After she finished speaking, she picked up a small bowl on the table and gently stirred the small half bowl of black liquid contained in it with a small wooden spoon.

This bowl of medicine was boiled out yesterday evening, and it has been some time now.

She touched the edge of the bowl, and the liquid was frozen cold by the cold of the spring night.

She put down the small bowl again, and said to Xu Huaigu a little apologetically: "This bowl of medicine seems to be a little cold, I'll go and heat it up." ”

Xu Huaigu was very embarrassed in his heart, and hurriedly dissuaded her: "Don't bother you, just make do with it, I'm not so weak yet." ”

The girl looked at him with some suspicion.

I was in a coma for three days and three nights before, and when I woke up for the first time, I was in a coma with pain for another day, and I insisted that I was not weak?

But she didn't say anything, just picked up the small bowl again and held it close to the bed.

Holding a small wooden spoon in his other hand, he carefully scooped out a small spoonful of black liquid medicine and sent it to Xu Huaigu's mouth.

Xu Huaigu opened his lips slightly and swallowed a small bite.

When the liquid medicine is in the mouth, it is extremely bitter, and it is mixed with a lot of medicinal residues, which is really difficult to swallow. He was injured again, and it was even more difficult to swallow, and it took a lot of effort to swallow one bite.

The girl handed over another spoonful, and Xu Huaigu swallowed it cooperatively.

Seeing the girl feeding herself medicine very seriously, Xu Huaigu's heart was very warm. Anyone who helps him in such a time when he needs it most will be deeply moved.

So Xu Huaigu showed a kind smile to the girl.

The girl was caught off guard by this smile, and she actually got up in a hurry and knocked over a spoonful of liquid medicine on him.

Xu Huaigu looked at her nervous appearance and suddenly smiled even more happily.

The girl rubbed her hair in annoyance, and secretly glanced at Xu Huaigu, who was smiling brightly, and her heart was slightly touched.

This person seems to be really good-looking, and he looks even better when he laughs.

Thinking of this, her face was slightly hot, and she only felt that the medicine bowl in her hand had suddenly become so big, and she hadn't finished drinking it after feeding it for so long.

So the movements in her hands unconsciously became faster and faster, and the liquid medicine was fed to Xu Huaigu's mouth one after another. As a result, Xu Huaigu hadn't swallowed the previous mouthful, and the second bite came to his mouth again, and finally he was choked and coughed.

Only then did the girl realize that her behavior was not quite right, so she stopped her movements and looked at Xu Huaigu with apologetic eyes.

Xu Huaigu knew in his heart that this girl was shy, so he closed his eyes and didn't look at her.

She was patient and continued to feed Xu Huaigu medicine slowly.

As soon as she finished drinking the medicine, the girl was relieved and ran outside as if she were running for her life.

Xu Huaigu almost laughed out loud when he heard the girl's hurried footsteps.

The door slammed open, and the room was brightened.

Xu Huaigu saw the moonlight outside the door, but the girl who had already stepped out of the threshold in half a step suddenly thought of something and turned her head to look at him.

She frowned and asked, "I haven't asked you what your name is?" ”

Xu Huaigu smiled and said, "Xu Huaigu." ”

The girl raised her chin, nodded, and when she turned around, she raised a waterfall of green silk, closed the door, and left by moonlight.

Xu Huaigu watched her go away, but what he was thinking about was the moment she finally turned her head. Behind him were stars, moonlight and cliffs, and in that scene, the beauty of the girl was deeply engraved in his heart, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

The candle flame still flickered.

……

The morning glow of the next day soon came.

In the early morning, the unique fragrance of the mountains and the sound of barking dogs and chickens woke Xu Huaigu from his dream.

He felt the sound in his ears and couldn't help but think of that line of poetry.

The dog barks in the deep alley, and the rooster cries in the mulberry tree.

However, there are no deep alleys or mulberry trees in this small village.

The small village is small and secluded, under a boulder jutting out from the river. All the houses were built of timber from the forest, on uneven ground, and as long as no one deliberately explored, they would not find a small village in such a desolate place.

But it also feels weird.

It's understandable that a village is remote, but it's not uncommon for a hidden village built beneath a rock, and it seems to be deliberately hiding from the outside world.

The sky was still only cloudy, and Yu Qin was already up, and she was cooking breakfast by the stove.

The children of the poor are in charge of the family at an early age, and this is especially true in remote mountains.

She skillfully stuffed a few pieces of firewood into the stove and burned the fire. After a while, I lifted the lid of the pot again, and when the oncoming heat dissipated, I saw a small pot of rice porridge tumbling inside.

Yu Qin took a small wooden scoop, stood on tiptoe, stretched the wooden scoop to the bottom of the pot and began to scoop the gruel, so that she could scoop more rice.

She stepped out of the stove room and prepared to go to Xu Huaigu's room.

She was walking on the road, but she was still reminiscing about what happened with Xu Huaigu last night, feeling a little ashamed and a little happy.

But she suddenly remembered that she had been in a hurry last night, and seemed to have forgotten to blow out the little candle, and she couldn't help but be a little annoyed.

A candle in this remote mountain village with scarce supplies is not big, but it is not too small.

Worried about the candle, she pushed open the door with some eagerness and looked inside.

Xu Huaigu had woken up and was staring at the roof in a daze, and the candle on the table had gone out for some reason, and he stood there, shedding a pool of candle tears on the table.

The candle was still there, and Yu Qin's mood was getting better again.

Xu Huaigu saw that she was in a better mood, and secretly rejoiced in her wit last night, and blew out the candle that the little girl forgot to blow out.

Although it took a lot of effort and a few injuries, it was worth it.

At the same time, after this small detail, he also confirmed that the little girl's mind is really clear, and there is no possibility of falsehood.

When he saw Yu Qin holding a small bowl again, he complained with a bitter face: "You won't drink medicine again today, right?" Yesterday that medicine was so bitter to me. ”

The little girl gave him a blank look, and said confidently, "You still don't want to take medicine?" Look at you like this, if you don't take medicine, you're going to die. ”

She also added "death" to a special weight.

Xu Huaigu was so funny in his heart that he finally couldn't help laughing, which made the little girl look at each other again.

He couldn't help but laugh and said, "You won't run away halfway through feeding today, right?" ”

Yu Qin angrily put the bowl on the table, pursed her lips, and said angrily: "I see that you are in good spirits today, I won't feed you, eat by yourself!" ”
