PS: At the request of book friends, I will add two updates tomorrow, no... no more, as if my body has been hollowed out
The wind blew the trees, making a rustling sound. The sound of the waterfall became smaller and smaller, gradually disappearing in the wind. As you move forward, the outline of the mountains slowly unfolds between the layers of trees, and the light of the setting sun pours down.
Being in the mountains means that this day is about to pass.
Li Xingchen, who was walking forward slowly, suddenly stopped. Behind him, Li Lian'er, who just lowered his head and followed his brother, stopped hurriedly. Xiao Shilian, who kept looking back and looking around, was caught off guard and bumped into Li Lian'er. The two of them were in a panic.
Rolling on the ground, if Xiao Shilian hadn't quickly covered Li Lian'er's mouth with his quick eyes and hands, the girl's scream would have shaken the entire forest.
Li Xingchen frowned, hurriedly stepped forward to help Li Lian'er, and glared at Xiao Shilian fiercely. Xiao Shilian knew that he was not at fault and had nothing to do, so he could only smile, get up, and bow to salute: "Miss Lian'er, really
I'm sorry."
This was actually the first time that she had such close contact with other men besides her father and brother. Li Lian'er's pretty face turned red, she stomped her feet bitterly, and turned to leave, but Li Xingchen hurriedly grabbed her: "Okay.
, Lian'er, Brother Xiao didn't do it on purpose. Just wait."
Hearing his brother speak, although Li Lian'er was still angry, he still stopped obediently, raised his head and looked at Li Xinchen, with an expression that if you can't make sense, I will definitely not let you go, which made Li Xinchen dumbfounded.
And Xiao Shilian guessed something. He looked up and looked at the outline of the mountains that could be seen between the woods: "Brother Li can already guess where we are now?"
Li Xingchen nodded and pointed in the distance: "Look at that mountain. That mountain is on the southwest side of the mountain behind the village. Presumably the back mountain should be to the north of this mountain, just because there is this mountain blocking it.
So it is invisible. In other words, the cave actually leads to another mountain through the saddle of the two connected mountains, and then the rushing water gushes out from the south of the mountain, forming such a large waterfall.
·····”
"No wonder!" Xiao Shilian also understood and nodded. They had been looking for traces of the back mountain before, and found that there was no way this mountain could be the back mountain of the village that had carried so much blood and tears. Now it is obviously magical.
The creation made a small joke with them.
Li Xingchen took a breath. It was a good thing to at least find out the location. It was better than them wandering around in the mountains and old forests like headless flies. What's more, Li Lian'er was not Xiao Shilian and Li Xingchen. They had a lot of time to wander around.
It will definitely not be able to support it if it grows longer, and it will be even harder to walk.
"After all, there is only one mountain away from the back mountain, and it is far from safe." Li Xingchen said in a deep voice, "We'd better be careful, especially now that it's getting dark. It's not appropriate to continue walking in the dark. It's best
The best way is to seize the time to climb over the mountain in front, then find a place to rest for the night, and wait until dawn tomorrow before leaving. After all, it won’t take long to continue walking from here, and resting in this mountain is ultimately more stable than outside.
Some."
Xiao Shilian nodded. Although he said that, it is easy to get out of this mountain. It is still a long way to find the camp of Nanchen Army. Even if you don't sleep, you have to walk for a day and a half, not to mention it is almost dark now.
, and the three people were already exhausted and hungry after running for their lives in such a mess.
As Li Xingchen said, it is better to rest in the mountains than to rest in the wilderness outside the mountains. The wild dogs wandering in the wilderness outside the mountains make the outside of the mountains no safer than inside the mountains. After all, Li Xingchen was with these people last night
Those who specialize in digging up dead bodies to eat them have had experience with them and know that they are not easy to mess with.
There are still human corpses to eat, but who knows if they will bite living people directly if they can't be found.
In an instant, Li Xingchen felt that, at least for the people in the village, it was a good thing to be buried in the bottomless cave. The flowing water and the howling wind could at least make them slowly rot and turn into bones.
, and turn into dust, instead of being buried in the belly of a dog.
At this moment, Li Lian'er let out a low cry and stretched out his hand to support a big tree next to him. The expressions of Li Xingchen and Xiao Shilian both changed. Li Xingchen hurriedly stepped forward and helped his sister: "Lian'er, what's wrong?
?”
And Xiao Shilian looked at himself up and down. Li Lian'er didn't do anything just now. She just bumped into him. Now he doesn't feel anything. Why can't this girl even walk?
Li Lian'er stretched out her hand to hold her forehead: "No...it's okay, I'm just a little dizzy..."
Li Xingchen was startled for a moment, but subconsciously touched her forehead, and his face suddenly changed slightly: "It's so hot, and you've caught the wind and cold, it's a fever..."
"It's okay!" Li Lian'er said decisively, and the girl's hoarse voice interrupted Li Xingchen's words.
Li Xingchen raised his eyebrows and winked directly at Xiao Shilian. Xiao Shilian nodded and took the package from Li Xingchen. Li Xingchen squatted down without saying a word: "Come on, I'll carry you on my back!"
"Brother, I'm fine..." Li Lian'er said reluctantly, "You won't be able to stand carrying me on your back on the mountain road..."
"Come up!" Li Xingchen said without hesitation, his voice already filled with anger, and even Xiao Shilian next to him was caught off guard and was startled.
Li Lian'er breathed out softly and could only climb up on Li Xinchen's back. He grabbed his sister's legs and Li Xinchen said sternly: "You are someone's sister. As a brother, I can't do anything else. This
It can still be done!”
Li Lian'er just lay on Li Xinchen's back silently, but a drop of water fell on Li Xinchen's hair, along his temples, and fell down his cheeks. They were tears. Li Xinchen said in a deep voice: "Okay, don't cry, you must persist.
Go down and don’t sleep either.”
"What if I don't agree?" Li Lian'er didn't know whether she was crying or laughing, she leaned on Li Xingchen's back and whispered.
Li Xingchen looked around and happened to see Xiao Shilian: "Then let Brother Xiao carry you, and you can cry on his back!"
"Silly brother!" Li Lian'er couldn't help but smile bitterly, and immediately reached out to wipe away her tears.
And Xiao Shilian couldn't help but rolled his eyes. Could it be that I have become a man-eating monster and can actually scare people to stop crying? But looking at Li Xingchen's eyes, Xiao Shilian also understood and solemnly handed over his hand: "As long as Miss Lian'er doesn't dislike it.
,Ready to serve."
"Who... who needs you!" Li Lian'er's face turned red and she said bitterly.
After being teased by the two "disrespectful" guys, Li Xingchen and Xiao Shilian, Li Lian'er also cheered up a bit, gritted his teeth and raised his head to look forward.
However, Li Xingchen and Xiao Shilian also knew that Li Lian'er might not be able to hold on for long now, so they had to quickly find a safe place to stop and rest.
