Ningxue stretched out her hand, wanting to wipe away the water left on the corner of his mouth. This is already her habitual action every time she feeds him water. Because in the past, every time she finished drinking water, he would wipe the corners of her mouth for her. Ningxue stretched out her hand halfway, and suddenly thought of something, she retracted her hand like an electric shock, and asked nervously: "Brother, are you hungry?"
Ningxue withdrew her hand quickly, but that brief glance shocked Ye Wuchen's heart, and his weak breathing suddenly became chaotic, and he asked anxiously in a dry voice: "Xue'er, let me see you hands."
Ningxue was startled for a moment, then hid her hands behind her back like a conditioned reflex, her expression became flustered, "I...my hands are fine, don't show my brother..."
Her attempt to cover up made him know that what he saw just now was not an illusion, and she said gently but firmly: "Xue'er, listen to brother and stretch out your hand."
In front of Ye Wuchen, Ningxue didn't have the strength to refuse at all. She finally took out her hands from behind her back, and opened them carefully in front of Ye Wuchen's eyes.
Although he was prepared, the moment Ye Wuchen's gaze touched her palm, his heart felt like being pierced by thousands of steel needles at the same time, his heart ached so much that he almost wanted to suffocate. He couldn't even believe it, is this really Ningxue's hand
The shape of the hands is still so petite and perfect. He used to hold these two small hands slowly in the palm of his hand, enjoying the feeling. And the white, tender and flawless hand in memory was already covered with thick calluses, very thick, dark and yellow in color, and some even had large or small blood blisters. On the palm of the hand and fingers, there are countless large and small scars vertically and horizontally, some are old scars, and some are carved only recently. Too many scars have completely destroyed the entire palm. On the wrist with the palm down, there are the same scars...
Ye Wuchen watched for a while, then closed his eyes, and couldn't bear to watch any more. He couldn't imagine how many times, how much friction, and how much pain he had to suffer to turn a pair of hands that were tenderer than snow into this shape. The scars vertically and horizontally on it were like sharp knives piercing into the softest part of his heart, making him feel so painful.
Why is it shocking...
"Does it hurt?" Ye Wuchen asked with a trembling voice.
Ningxue withdrew her hand and placed it on his body, shaking her head anxiously: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all."
"But, I hurt." Ye Wuchen looked into her bright eyes, feeling the heartache that he had never felt before. Even on the night of the full moon back then, he had never felt such pain.
In this world, who else is more beautiful than his Cher. Even if it is a fairy in the sky, it is impossible to catch up with his Xue'er in case.
…
Ningxue came to this mysterious forest again, but her mood was completely different from before, the same, it was the urgency in her heart. Ye Wuchen's waking up made her not want to be separated from him even more, she just wanted to find the fruit she wanted as soon as possible and return to him as soon as possible. On the way here, she cheered in her heart again and again: "Brother woke up! Brother woke up..."
She has come to this small forest too many times, and although she never dared to go deep, she can remember the location of almost every tree in the marginal generation, and some small animals that often appear are also very familiar. This time, her footsteps were obviously much lighter than before. When she stepped into a grass pile, there was a sudden commotion in the grass. Ningxue took a step back in fright, and a frightened rabbit ran from the grass pile Come out and run forward quickly.
Before Ningxue came back to her senses, the rabbit who was in a panic bumped into a solid old tree with a "bang", and was knocked on its back. There was no more movement.
Ningxue stared wide-eyed and watched for a long time, only after seeing the rabbit remained motionless, she patted the startled "Bang Bang" on the chest and walked over. She lowered herself down, and carefully touched the rabbit's body with her hand. After seeing that it was still unresponsive, she grabbed it and ran back quickly.
For two whole years, neither she nor Ye Wuchen had any meat. Because a little girl like her can't catch game at all, even if she can catch it, she doesn't dare to kill it. And today, the poor rabbit who killed herself is like a gift from heaven, so that she can take it to nourish her brother who just woke up.
"Brother, look, I caught a rabbit." From a long distance, she lifted the poor rabbit high, shaking and giggling, to her, this was really A remarkable thing. Because she was running too fast, her body became unsteady and fell to the grass. She struggled to get up, but her face was still full of joy.
Her smile made Ye Wuchen's dull and stinging heart feel better, and he silently thanked this rabbit that fell into her hands for some unknown reason. For him, Ningxue's smile is the most beautiful scenery in his life.
Ningxue ran to his side and happily showed him the chubby rabbit in her hand: "Brother, look, hee hee, this rabbit is so stupid, it actually crashed into a tree by itself, it's really stupid!"
Hit yourself into a tree? Ye Wuchen yelled in his heart a little amused, no wonder, and then couldn't help thinking of a story in his mind called "Waiting for the Rabbit".
"Brother, shall we eat this stupid rabbit?" She giggled, but immediately thought of something, and she became a little anxious again: "But, there is no fire here, how can we put this rabbit on fire?" The rabbit is cooked..."
Ye Wuchen moved the fingers of his left hand, "Xue'er, come to me, I have a fire, a pot and a stove, everything. Did Xue'er forget?"
The sword god's ring on his finger shone with white light, and it was infused with fire elements. The fire box, pot, spoon, and stove used to make the fire were all available, and there were even many dry firewood that were not used up before. These were all brought by them when they went to the Tianmiie Volcano in the Tianlong Kingdom, and they used it all the way, and they have always existed in his sword god ring. In addition, their beds, tents, and some unfinished food are among them. Taking something out of the sword god's ring requires only the mind, no strength is required.
Everything in front of her was so familiar, after Ningxue was overjoyed, her nose slowly became sour. She missed sleeping lazily in her brother's arms back then, she missed Tong Xin, and missed many people... It's just that she will never see them again in her whole life. A peakless abyss of broken souls completely separated them in two worlds, and they would meet each other indefinitely.
Ningxue quickly started the fire, and she finally saw the color of the fire again. There is green grass under your feet, so you don't have to worry about starting a fire at all. But after the fire was lit, Ningxue once again held the dead rabbit at a loss, because whether it was burning or cooking, the rabbit's skin had to be peeled off first, Ningxue had never done it before, and it was almost impossible to do it arrive. Although she can eat very delicious, but every time Ye Wuchen peels the animal's skin, she dare not even look at it.
Ye Wuchen immediately guessed what she was thinking, and said pitifully: "Xue'er, can I eat this rabbit after I regain my strength? I still have a lot of pastries to eat here."
Ningxue thought for a while, but slowly but firmly shook her head, holding the rabbit in one hand and a knife in the other, she walked to the side of the stream.
When she stretched out the knife to the rabbit's body, her hand trembled again and again, never daring to really drop it. After a long time, she gritted her teeth, stabbed the knife down fiercely, and closed her eyes tightly...
"I'm sorry, little rabbit, my brother's body needs nourishment, so I have to wrong you..."
"I'm sorry, little rabbit, I'm really sorry..."
She relied on her own feeling, and the knife slashed on the rabbit. After the initial intolerance and fear, her heart finally calmed down a little bit, but her hands were still trembling, and she was almost cut by the knife several times. superior. She was always whispering in her mouth, saying "I'm sorry" over and over again to the little rabbit in her hand. Only in this way would she feel better.
Listening to Ningxue's low voice, Ye Wuchen also whispered Ningxue's name in his heart. If it wasn't for her, she would never dare to get blood on her hands, even if it was just a dead rabbit.
When the rabbit was finished, Ningxue was already sweating profusely. She put the rabbit into the pot, filled it with stream water, and added various seasonings under Ye Wuchen's guidance. When the smell of meat came, Ningxue's saliva couldn't be stopped no matter what. While she kept swallowing, there were still strands of crystal clear water overflowing from the corner of her mouth. It had been too long since she had smelled of oil.
"Brother, you say sister, and sister Tongxin are they doing well now? Are they thinking about us?" Ningxue asked while swallowing her saliva.
Ye Wuchen smiled and said: "They must be thinking of us the same way we miss them. Your sister Tongxin is so powerful, no one can bully them."
Thinking of them, Ye Wuchen's heart became heavy again. He couldn't predict the real situation. When he jumped off Duanhunyuan that day, Tongxin's breath was almost as weak as his. Like herself, she was struggling desperately. Her enemies are too strong for her to fight against.
Was she, like herself, driven to a dead end? And what happened to Ye Shuiyao who was waiting for him in the Great Wind Country...
As soon as he thought of this, he was in a mess. Once again, I thought hard about the person who pushed Tongxin into a desperate situation. Who on earth has such strength. And it was the appearance of this person that forced Tongxin to leave Ningxue, let Ningxue be taken away by the Gale Nation, and changed everything that should have been.
Who is that person? In Tianchen Continent, when did such a terrifying powerhouse appear
Or, that person... doesn't belong to Tianchen Continent at all. As soon as this thought appeared, Ye Wuchen's heart shook violently, and another possibility became clearer and clearer in his mind.
