As Xin Yue spoke, he stared at the injured part of Yan Zhan. Yan Zhan had large and small wounds on his body and was bleeding. The largest wound was on his left arm. It was caused by fighting with someone in the cave.

With a strong smell of blood.

Xin Yue frowned slightly, looking at the wounds all over his body, feeling a little uncomfortable. She pursed her lips and tied the wounds on Yan Zhan's arms. She found that what he could do for him was limited to this.

She moved her lips: "Thank you."

"What?"

Xin Yue lowered his head and said sincerely: "Thank you."

A long, long time ago, there was a man who sacrificed so much for her. Even though he was facing a formidable enemy, he still pulled her to run away, giving up the chance of reversal, just so that she could not be harmed in the slightest. At that time, he

He must have placed all his trust in her, so he didn't fully react until she tied him to a tree.

At that time, she didn't know that he was different from other pirates, so he was cold and indifferent, so even if her heart fluctuated, she still had a clear boundary with him in her heart. She considered his feelings, and she knew that this would be cruel, but

She still almost let him die on a desert island.

She didn't know why. She suddenly missed Chu Zhiling very much at this moment, missed him very much, but she also knew that there was too much between them. Even if she missed him again, she would not bow to him, or even if he bowed his head.

, she also felt that they might not get along well together.

She is also a woman. During the cold nights, when she is lonely and helpless, she will be sad, scared, think of the past with him, and think about those warm and beautiful past like crazy. Sometimes

When I dream about him, I dream about the past, before anything unpleasant happened, when he took her out shopping, took her to see the prosperity of Hirado, and kissed her on the street without any scruples.

Sometimes she really wanted to surrender, really wanted to compromise, really wanted to ignore everything and just return to him covered in wind and snow.

But her reason told her that she couldn't.

It has nothing to do with self-esteem, nothing to do with pride, nothing to do with everything she cares about on a daily basis, it is just to prevent herself from being hurt again.

He is not a good man, so why bother trusting him?

"Thank you, just thank you. There's no need to cry." Yan Zhan heard the slight choking sound and raised his eyes.

Xin Yue lowered his head and moved his shoulders slightly. Yan Zhan put on his clothes and asked slightly worriedly: "Does your foot hurt?"

Xin Yue still didn't speak. Yan Zhan lifted Xin Yue's chin half helplessly and half tentatively, and a drop of hot liquid rolled onto his hand.

He was startled, and looked into Xin Yue's eyes. A pair of dark, watery eyes flashed, his lips were pressed tightly, his small face was as pale as paper, with a pear blossom like rain, and a small tear mole at the corner of his eye, which looked pitiful.

To the extreme.

Yan Zhan felt that a hole had opened in his heart, and countless emotions poured into his heart, lingering into thin streams of heat.

Xin Yue reached out and knocked his hand off, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, cleared his throat, and said in a muffled voice: "Snowflakes got into my eyes."

The frowning and weeping look disappeared in an instant. She was as cold and indifferent as usual, with a hint of arrogance in her expression.

"Um?"

"I didn't cry."

Yan Zhan was startled, looking at her uneasy look, he slightly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.

"Every difficulty will pass, just keep an open mind."

"I told you that I didn't cry or feel sad."

"Okay, you're not sad." Yan Zhan raised his eyebrows, "I didn't say anything."

After Yan Zhan said that, he continued: "Let's go."

He carried Xin Yue on his back and continued to shuttle through the deep forest, but the sky was dark and they could not find any direction. They gradually lost their way and did not know where to go.

"We can only leave at dawn tomorrow," Yan Zhan said.

Xin Yue frowned slightly, as if she had some objection, but at this moment, several firelights caught her eyes, and then, several dogs barked from the forest.

What she was worried about actually happened: "As time passed, someone really caught up with me."

They had no choice but to walk deeper, but Yan Zhan's body became weaker and weaker, and his speed became slower and slower.

Under the light of the torch, a group of hounds were howling. Zhu Rui's confidant Quan An stood there and commanded, saying in a cold voice: "Look for it carefully."

"yes!"

Soon after, the hounds began to run around, all running in one direction.

These hounds are native Japanese dogs, and Zhu Rui borrowed them from a Japanese friend. The time just passed was long enough for them to capture the hounds and add reinforcements.

"Ouch!"

"They are coming." Xin Yue's voice was extremely cold. She lay on Yan Zhan's back, thinking quickly about ways to resolve the crisis.

There are trees here. On normal days, you can definitely try to climb the trees. Even if you can't escape the rug-like search of the hounds, you can at least take a look at the overall situation and check the situation below. However, it is winter now, and there should be most of the trees here.

It is a temperate deciduous broad-leaved forest, and the branches have fallen off one after another. The branches are visible. The most important thing is that there is snow on the trunks, making it impossible to climb.

The cold wind blew by, and Xin Yue couldn't find an effective method, and his mind suddenly became confused. At this moment, Yan Zhan's feet went soft, and the two of them fell to the ground. Xin Yue quickly got up first, and said:

Yan Zhan said:

"Escape alone and get out of here."

"I'm fine. I just bumped into something. My body can still hold on for a while. Don't worry."

Xin Yue still wanted to speak, but at this moment, she seemed to sense a crisis, and the alarm bell suddenly rang in her heart.

"careful!"

Everything seemed to happen at 0.01 second, and the situation took an unbelievable turn. Before Xin Yue could react, Yan Zhan's body flew forward and pressed directly on her.

A huge hound rushed from behind Xin Yue. It can be guessed that the hound was very fast and light. Otherwise, they would not have discovered it until the hound was almost close. The hound seemed to be riding on the wind.

It ran towards Yan Zhan and couldn't restrain its inertia when it stopped in an emergency. It pressed directly towards Yan Zhan's body, but its reaction was very sensitive. It opened its mouth with white teeth and bit hard at the important acupoints on Yan Zhan's back and neck.

.

At this moment, Xin Yue, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes, raised the knife in his hand, and inserted the knife into the hound's throat like a flying bird. With a pop, the tragic blood suddenly spattered, Xin Yue's cold dagger

Direction to the right, continue to draw along the main artery of the hound's neck, rotate, pull, and wail!

Suddenly, another hound came. Xin Yue got the strength from nowhere and quickly pushed away Yan Zhan who was pressing on him like lightning. He turned around and kicked the approaching hound sideways on the waist.

The screams of hounds came, and the air filled with blood and the shadows of swords and swords.
