The old man quickly stepped forward and put down the basket on his back. First he tested Ye Wuchen's aura, and then pinched his wrist with a dry old hand. After a while, his face showed surprise, then he sighed and shook his head. Then he set his sights on this girl who was unforgettable at a glance. He pointed behind her small wrist, and a look of surprise appeared on his face: "At such a young age, you have such strong endurance, and you will almost exhaust all your vitality and potential by then... There is no way to recover. But even now, my vitality has been seriously injured, and I don’t know how long it will take to recover, alas!"
"I'll make an exception for you, an amazing little girl."
The old man grabbed Ye Wuchen with one hand and Ye Ningxue with the other, his old and withered body unexpectedly lifted them in his hands, and then his body flew into the air and flew out of the forest.
brother... brother...
In a coma, she kept calling his name. Because of what a fear it would be for her to lose him.
When she was most helpless and didn't know why she was alive, he held her hand and became her brother. When everyone rejected her and hated her, he touched her face and said that he would protect her, not let her go hungry, and not let her be bullied again, and then he did not hesitate to offend the public, and taught those who bullied her...
From then on, her world was no longer gloomy, but there was one more him. It is also because of his existence that the world is so nostalgic.
If you lose your brother...
She opened her eyes faintly, and whispered: "Brother, brother... where is brother?"
His whole body was limp and weak, and it was so difficult to even move his eyelids. A gentle and old voice answered her: "Child, are you awake? Sleep a little longer, you are too tired."
"Brother, I want brother..."
"Your brother is by your side, you can sleep at ease. If you don't raise your strength, who will take care of your brother."
Ningxue let out a soft "um", finally closed her heavy eyelids, and fell into a deep sleep again. She is really tired.
The old man looked at her lovingly for a while, and said to himself: "It would be great if I had this granddaughter. Although the face is damaged and she still has strange white hair, but her heart is so kind, even My old bones are... hey, no matter, since I have already made an exception once, let’s help her again, anyway, I won’t be able to use my old bones.”
He stretched out two fingers, and tapped between Ningxue's eyebrows, a stream of warm air flowed continuously from his fingertips. Ningxue's pale face in sleep began to turn rosy gradually, the corner of the old man's mouth opened into a smile, he withdrew his hands, and then looked at his hands with some weirdness: "After all, I'm just a little girl, and I haven't consumed much. Vitality... Huh, in this case, she should be able to recover after waking up, hey, it's really hard for her."
only…
His eyes fell on Ningxue's face again, with an inquiring look on his face, he said to himself: "It's really strange, I've lived for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen such a scar... What is it? What caused it."
In the evening, Ningxue finally opened her eyes again. Although the body still had soreness and pain, but her strength had recovered a lot, she subconsciously called out "Brother", got up in a hurry, and then saw Ye Wuchen lying beside her at a glance, his face was still as pale as ever. Paper, almost non-existent. She stayed there, just staring straight, unable to say a word, tears quickly gathered in the sockets of her eyes, she lightly sucked her little nose to hold back the tears, but the tears finally fell down.
The old door curtain was lifted, and the old man walked in with a small bowl, and then said with a smile, "Son, you're awake. Come, have a bowl of medicinal porridge first."
Ningxue seemed to see hope, she hurriedly got down from the wooden bed, and knelt down in front of the old man with a "plop": "Grandpa, please save brother, please, grandpa, please save brother... you let Xue You can do anything."
After finishing speaking, her little head was about to knock down, and the old man quickly helped her up, sighed secretly, with a pitiful smile on his face: "My child, listen to grandpa's words and finish this bowl of porridge first, and grandpa will talk to you again." Are you okay? By the way, you can call me Grandpa Long."
"Well, thank you, Grandpa Long." Ye Ningxue nodded gratefully, picked up the medicinal porridge on the table, and drank it without a spoon, because she was really hungry. However, she had just drank a little, and she put down the bowl again, "Grandpa Long, I want to give the rest to my brother."
The muscles on the old man's face twitched, and he finally let out a long sigh, and said, "Son, sit down first. Sit next to your brother."
Ningxue sat down as she said, and suddenly began to feel uneasy.
At this time, a young man's hearty voice suddenly came from outside: "Grandpa, I'm back!"
The door curtain was lifted, revealing a heroic face, around 20 years old, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, with obvious arrogance and a little melancholy on the handsome face. Although this is only a remote town, this person's aura and temperament are definitely not what ordinary people can have. Seeing Ye Ningxue, he was startled for a moment, and then asked with concern: "Little sister, you're awake, are you still feeling unwell?"
Mr. Long had already told him about Ningxue, which made him feel even more deeply moved. Such affection at such a young age is really rare in the world.
Ningxue raised her little face full of anxiety, and asked, "Big Brother, who are you?"
"This is my grandson, his name is Long Zhengyang, you can just call him Big Brother Long." The old man said gently.
Obvious surprise flashed across Long Zhengyang's face, because he confided his real name to an outsider so easily.
"Brother Long... Okay, my name is Ningxue, Ye Ningxue, it's the name my brother gave me." Her gaze rested on Ye Wuchen's face, hoping that he would wake up immediately.
"The name your brother gave... Is he your real brother?" Long Zhengyang asked doubtfully.
Ye Ningxue shook her head: "Everyone hates me, but my brother treats me the best. He plays with me every day, protects me, and even gave me a name."
Long Zhengyang smiled and said: "Little sister, most worldly people judge people by their appearance, so don't pay attention to it. It seems that this little brother is not a commoner, so it's no wonder you even gave up your life for him. By the way, little sister, you How did you get the scar on your face?"
Ye Ningxue was stunned for a while, because she had never thought about this question before, so she could only shake her head and said: "I don't know, I am the same as my brother, I don't remember the past... Please hurry up and save my brother, okay?" it is good… "
Old Man Long's eyes flickered, and he sighed softly, "Yang'er, go check out his condition."
"Me?" Long Zhengyang looked surprised: "But grandpa, I only know some of the simplest medical skills, this..."
"Just try it and you'll know."
Long Zhengyang seemed to understand something, he stopped talking, after hesitating for a while, he stretched out his right palm and pressed on Ye Wuchen's chest. But immediately, he withdrew his palm as if he had been scalded, with a look of horror on his face.
