"I've always been thinking, at that time, why did Sister Tongxin leave?"
"She left because she wanted to protect you and me." Ye Wuchen replied with distant eyes.
Ningxue turned her head, puzzled.
Ye Wuchen couldn't explain it clearly to her, and he didn't want her to worry too much, so he said with a smile: "Xue'er, it's ready to eat."
The smell of meat was overflowing, Ningxue hurriedly put out the fire when she heard the words, looking at the rabbit meat in the pot eagerly, swallowing her saliva and waiting for it to become less hot soon.
Ye Wuchen used to sleep for ten years without a drop of water, instead of being starved to death, he grew up day by day in deep sleep. Because at that time, he could freely absorb the spirit of heaven and earth to supply his body. But now that his body is deficient and can no longer recover his spirit, coupled with his frail body, if it wasn't for Ningxue's careful care over the past two years and the life force she inadvertently instilled in him, he would have died long ago. Now smelling the smell of meat, he also felt hungry. This feeling surprised him. The feeling of hunger meant that his body was fine except for being extremely weak. Maybe it won't be long before his body can slowly recover.
When it was finally cool enough, Ningxue picked up a knife and cut off a piece of rabbit meat with great effort, then squatted down impatiently and put it near Ye Wuchen's mouth, "Brother, this rabbit smells so good, this is the first one I've caught. A rabbit, brother, eat it quickly."
Ye Wuchen didn't open his mouth, and said with a smile: "Xue'er, I don't have the strength to chew at all now, people who have just had a serious illness are not suitable for eating hard to digest food, I am only suitable for drinking soup now, so this rabbit Xue'er You have to eat them all."
"Ah? Is that so?" Ningxue was slightly disappointed, then quickly stood up again, picked up a small bowl to fill a bowl full of soup, picked up a small spoon to stir carefully, and tasted Several times, he didn't scoop up a small spoonful until the temperature he was satisfied with, and blew on it worryingly for a while before putting it on Ye Wuchen's lips: "Brother, the soup is not hot anymore."
Every mouthful of the delicious rabbit meat soup made him recall it for a long time. In his life, he will never forget the taste at this time. The girl was so excited when she came back with the rabbit. Waiting anxiously, feeding him carefully while swallowing, with deep concern and satisfaction hanging from the corner of his mouth. Every movement, every expression of hers contained the affection that he could never finish in his whole life.
From now on, even if you taste all the rare treasures in the world, there will be nothing like this one in case. Because in the bland broth, there is a girl's flawless heart.
After being fed by Ningxue for two bowls, Ye Wuchen finally said: "Okay, I'm already full, Xue'er, don't just feed me, you should drink more, after so long, you must be starving. "
Ningxue put down the small bowl and shook her head: "I don't like soup."
Ye Wuchen smiled secretly when he heard the words, and said: "Then I want to eat this rabbit today, okay? Otherwise, it might be broken tomorrow."
"En!" Ningxue responded, swallowing her mouthful of saliva forcefully, picked up half a rabbit with her small hand, and bit it bit by bit. At first, he ate very slowly, gradually biting faster and faster, and his eating became more and more indecent, and he wanted to eat all of them in one breath. She was really too hungry, while feeding Ye Wuchen, all the gluttons in her stomach had already turned upside down.
"Eat slowly, be careful not to bite your tongue." Ye Wuchen looked at her eating and said dotingly.
"Yeah." Ningxue smiled at him a little embarrassedly, and then started to gobble it up again. It didn't take long, and half of it was wiped out like a storm. While chewing, her movements gradually slowed down, and tears overflowed from her eyes.
"Xue'er? What's wrong? Why are you crying again?"
Ningxue wiped away the tears from her face, raised her head, and said with tears in her eyes: "I... I can finally take care of my brother, and I can finally stop burdening my brother... My brother has also woken up, I am really happy, so happy …”
She has always been clinging to Ye Wuchen, treating him as her only reliance, not wanting to be separated from him for a moment. But at the same time, she always knew that she was a burden to him. Without herself, he would be able to do many things with ease and worry less. But she just didn't want to be separated from him. Every day, she enjoys his protection and his embrace, and immerses herself in this complex state of self-blame every day, longing to one day be able to protect him like Tong Xin. Although... She knew that he would not blame her for anything.
During this period of time, she was finally able to get what she wanted, using her own hands to wake him up with daily expectations and persistence. Today, she even brought back a little rabbit for him. Her heart is really good. Satisfied, gradually, I began to want to cry...
Ye Wuchen's heart warmed up, and he stared at her softly: "Xue'er, I have said many times, there is no encumbrance between us, as long as you are by my side, it is a kind of happiness for me, If one day you are afraid of dragging me down and leave me temporarily, that will hurt me, understand? Just like me now, I can accept your care with peace of mind... "
"We all met and cuddled each other when we were the loneliest and most helpless. Do you still remember, when I left you behind, you ran all day and night to catch up with me, and your worn out feet took all your shoes and socks It was dyed red. In order to save me, I desperately climbed Tianlie Mountain and stole the egg of a celestial beast... From then on, you are my half life, the little shadow beside me, even if I throw it away I will not leave you behind. This time, you have worked hard for so long to save me, if you are dragging it down, it is I who dragged Xueer down."
"No... no, my brother didn't drag me down. If it wasn't because of me, how could my brother..." Ningxue's heart was filled with warm panic, how could she feel that it was her brother who was tired of her.
"So, Xue'er, don't say things like dragging on in the future, okay?" The corners of Ye Wuchen's mouth slightly curled up, showing a warm smile that can only be shown in front of Ningxue: "We have long been indistinguishable from each other, there is no relationship at all." To be dragged down or not to be dragged down, if Xueer said that again, it would make my brother sad."
"I won't say it, I won't say it again." Ningxue threw away the bone in her hand and threw herself into Ye Wuchen's arms, "I just want to be with my brother, look at my brother every day, and never separate."
Ye Wuchen smiled gently: "This is my good Xue'er."
After talking too much, a strong tiredness continued to hit him, and he said weakly: "Xue'er, I'm a little sleepy, can you sleep with me for a while?"
The hand on his chest was tightened violently, Ye Wuchen understood in his heart, and said with relief: "Don't worry, I wake up, it means that I'm much better, and I won't sleep for so long. If If you compete with me who can sleep longer, maybe I will lose."
Ningxue smiled sweetly, buried her head in his arms, and slowly closed her eyes.
Tired for too long, tense for too long, scared for too long... Relaxed at this moment, the tiredness she felt was stronger than Ye Wuchen, almost fell into a deep sleep as soon as she closed her eyes. This time, with a contented and happy smile on the corner of her mouth, she no longer has to worry about being awakened by a nightmare in her sleep.
Listening to her breathing that became soothing and even in a blink of an eye, Ye Wuchen was stabbed in the heart again. He really wanted to open his arms, hold her in his arms, and let her fall asleep comfortably and unencumbered like before.
"Master, tears, her tears!" Nan'er reminded anxiously. Although she couldn't figure out why there was life element in Ningxue's tears, but for Ye Wuchen who lost all his strength, Ningxue's tears could restore him in the shortest time.
"I will get better gradually." Ye Wuchen closed his eyes, and said to Nan'er and himself in his heart: "I don't want to see her cry again."
Nan'er was silent and did not insist anymore. Ye Wuchen is not the only one who loves Ningxue.
…
After Ye Wuchen woke up, Ningxue was as happy as a bird out of the cage every day, even jumping up and down when she went to pick fruit in the forest, but unfortunately she never saw any rabbit killed by herself again. Also because of Ye Wuchen's waking up, their food also began to become more abundant. The food stored in the sword god's ring was enough for them to eat for many days. The number of times Ningxue went to the forest was also much less, and she kneaded it for him every day. body, or lying on the grass next to him, crossing his calves and telling him many interesting things he encountered here.
Two days later, Ye Wuchen finally raised his arm, stroked Ningxue's face, Ningxue pressed his hand on her face, and burst into tears again. She could already see that it wouldn't be long before she could be held in his arms like before. Ye Wuchen kissed away her tears and waited quietly. What he thought in his heart was much more than Ningxue.
Day by day, Ye Wuchen's body is also recovering day by day, even Ye Wuchen himself thinks this is really a miracle. Falling from Duan Hunyuan, I don't know how many times it takes the blessing of the god of luck to survive and get better day by day. Although he lost his strength, the consciousness of every part of his body has been restored, which also means that none of his parts have been invalidated.
He really didn't know what else to describe it other than miracles.
And this miracle was brought to him by Ningxue.
Half a month later, Ye Wuchen finally stood up with Ningxue's support. At that moment, Ningxue hugged his body and jumped up and down, laughing heartily amidst the tears she shed, the laughter that lasted for a long time spread far away with the soft wind, echoing for a long time. In the end, she and Ye Wuchen who were exhausted from laughing both fell on the grass.
However, Ye Wuchen's recovery was so far. He only had the strength to stand up and barely walk a few steps to the greatest extent. He is like a balloon that has been burst. No matter how hard you try to inflate it, you can only inflate it by a small amount. Even if there is more, it will only escape through the broken hole.
When Ye Wuchen discovered this, he could only sigh heavily. He didn't dare to tell Ningxue, and comforted her that she would feel much better every day.
With this kind of him, he can only stay here forever, being taken care of and protected by Ningxue for the rest of his life. He couldn't accept this reality.
Another five days passed, and with Ningxue's support, he began to observe this mysterious world.
