In the process of Shen Li's escape, the woods had gradually darkened. Finally they stumbled into a cave, and then they hid together for a while.

Shen Yan picked up firewood to light the fire, Shen Li couldn't support it because of excessive blood loss, and when he saw that the situation was stable, his body instantly lost his strength and fell weakly into Mu Yan's arms.

Mu Yan hurriedly hugged him, and his hand touched his injured shoulder, stained with blood. Although she is not pampered, but she has never seen such a scene since she was a child? Looking at the blood on her hands and Shen Li's face that became more and more pale under the light of the fire, Rao is usually calm, but she is also panicked at the moment.

At this time, Shen Yan walked over, tore the fabric of Shen Li's wound without any ambiguity, took a closer look at the wound, and then stretched his brows and sighed lightly.

"Fortunately, there is no poison on the arrow. As he spoke, he took out a vial from his sleeve pocket and threw it to Mu Yan, and said, "This is a healing medicine, you feed the third brother one." I went out to find out if there were any herbs nearby to stop bleeding, and picked some for the third brother to put on them. ”

Mu Yan nodded, and when he saw Shen Yan leaving, he hurriedly opened the medicine bottle and poured out a pill and fed it to Shen Li. Shen Li wanted to sit up after swallowing the medicine, but Mu Yan didn't let him, and carefully hugged him and leaned on his arms. This action made Shen Li laugh out loud, even though his face was as pale as snow, his eyes were still calm and calm.

"Yan'er, don't be so nervous, I'm fine. ”

"Why are you okay!"

As soon as Shen Li opened his mouth, Mu Yan's tears slipped down like pearls with broken threads. She is introverted and not very expressive. Glancing at Shen Li's wound, he didn't say anything. Seeing this, Shen Li lowered his eyes and an unknown emotion flashed in his eyes, knowing that the situation just now should have scared her, he couldn't help but close his eyes and wanted to take a nap.

But as soon as he closed his eyes, he was awakened by Mu Yan's panicked voice. He raised his eyes to look at her, and with a brief glance, he understood why. I just wanted to explain something, but I heard Mu Yan say: "Don't sleep, don't sleep." I—Shall I tell you a joke?"

Shen Li knew that Mu Yan was afraid that he wouldn't wake up as soon as he fell asleep, and wanted to explain that it was okay to make her feel at ease. But when she heard that she was going to tell a joke, she couldn't help but nod her head in cooperation.

Mu Yan wiped his tears, thought for a while, and said: "Once upon a time, there was a rich merchant who did all kinds of evil passing by a forest, and he met a robber on the mountain. When the robber leader caught him, the rich merchant knelt down before him and begged for mercy, saying that if he spared him, he would give him all his treasures. When the robber leader heard this, he thought about it, and said to the rich merchant, "It's okay to let you go, you answer me a question, and if you answer correctly, I'll let you go." Although the rich merchant hesitated, he thought that it was a glimmer of life, so he nodded. Then the robber leader asked him, "How many trees have been planted in this forest?"

Speaking of this, Mu Yan deliberately looked at Shen Li's expression, and seeing that he didn't react much, he continued: "The rich merchant was stunned, how did he know how many trees were planted in this forest." Seeing that the bandit leader was urging, he could only kowtow and beg for mercy. The bandit leader said, you can just guess the number, maybe you are lucky enough to guess correctly. The rich merchant thought about it, so he casually said the number, but the robber leader cut it down with a knife and killed a housekeeper next to the rich merchant, splashing blood on the rich merchant's face. ”

"And then?"

Then the rich merchant was frightened, and the robber leader said to him again, "I guessed wrong!" But I am in a good mood today, sir, so I will give you another chance! The rich merchant hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him, so the robber leader asked him, "How much is one plus one?" This time the rich merchant was so happy that he answered without hesitation, and the robber leader cut him down again and killed him. ”

"Why?"

Shen Li was at a loss, wasn't he telling a joke? Why didn't it sound like that at all?

"Because he knows so much. ”

Mu Yan said the answer, and Shen Li looked at each other, and no one spoke for a while. After a moment, she blinked, and pulled the corners of her mouth in embarrassment.

"Isn't it funny?"

Suddenly, Shen Li smiled, not deliberately pandering, but really laughing from the heart. His eyebrows and eyes were dyed with a smile, and he endured the pain, smiling as brightly as a child who had received a gift.

And he smiled, and the wound opened again. Blood came out, wetting his clothes and causing Mu Yan to panic. She wanted to reach out to cover the wound, but she was afraid that he would hurt, so in the end she could only touch Shen Li's cheek and choked up: "Don't laugh, don't laugh! I'm sorry, I'm sorry I'm not good! Why am I so stupid, I know that you are injured and still say a joke, I-"

The epilogue came to an abrupt end, and the unfinished words were drowned in the warm lips. Shen Li pulled down her head and kissed her lips as if aggressively. With the air of domineering and conquest, it lingers on death.

After a while, they retreated slightly, and the two of them pressed against their foreheads to calm their breathing, and then Shen Li dropped a fine kiss on Mu Yan's lips before he said leisurely: "I'm really fine, it's just that my shoulder hurts." When he went hunting in the paddock with his father as a child, he was also accidentally injured. I'm sorry to scare you, right? If you're scared, you keep touching my chest, and your heart doesn't stop, it means I'm still alive. ”

Mu Yan nodded silently, tears burst and kept sliding down his cheeks. Shen Li raised his hand to touch her face, and pulled her hand over his chest.

"Don't cry, smoke doesn't cry. I've been there, I've always been there. ”

Outside the stone cave, Shen Yan stood there for an unknown amount of time. He was holding the herbs in his hand, although he should have gone in early to apply the medicine to the third brother, but when he saw the two people hugging each other, he finally stopped.

There are some things he has always hidden in his heart, although he has persuaded himself to give up countless times, but every time he sees Mu Yan's smart smiling face, he leaves behind what words and determination. He knew that Mu Yan had a third brother in his heart, but he always had a little hope. How beautiful that dream was before, if it wasn't for his suspicions in the end, he was afraid that he would really have to sleep in that dream for the rest of his life and not wake up.

He originally thought that no one in the world loved Mu Yan more than him. Even if the third brother likes it, he definitely can't compare to him. He is willing to give up everything for Mu Yan, glory and wealth and even the status of a prince, as long as Mu Yan is willing to go with him, he will not hesitate to do anything at the ends of the world. But what about the third brother? The third brother is bent on being the emperor of Daming, and it is impossible to give up everything he has for the sake of a woman, and even for the sake of being thoughtful in many ways, he even pretended to turn a blind eye to the bullying of Mu Yan by several wives and concubines in the house. In this way, how could it be possible to bring happiness to Mu Yan? How could Mu Yan be happier with him than with him?

But today's incident made him completely wake up. When the arrow came over, he saw that the third brother was almost without a trace of hesitation in front of Mu Yan. Just like his brother who he has admired since he was a child, he is strong, calm, fearless, and handsome, which makes his eyes red.

It turns out that it is not comparable to glory and wealth. The third brother is even willing to give his life, how can he still fight?
