After Bao Guangyuan finished speaking, he praised himself for his wit in his heart. However, the next moment, he didn’t know if it was his illusion, but he felt that Yu Ning’s gaze towards him became even colder
Based on Ji Mingxia's words, he praised Yu Ning in front of Pei Yuan. What was wrong with that
Could it be that even praising people could have the opposite effect these days
Bao Guangyuan was thinking with fear in his heart, but Ji Mingxia beside him didn't notice the ups and downs of Bao Guangyuan's mental journey.
Hearing that Bao Guangyuan also agreed with his point of view, Ji Mingxia continued to say to Pei Yuan: "These past few days in the forest, it was Yu Ning who took care of us. The sandwich just now was actually found by Yu Ning. And the staple food, snacks, clothes, various outdoor supplies, everything was arranged by Yu Ning."
"Yu Ning is actually a very soft-hearted person, but he just doesn't show it on purpose. When someone treated him badly in school before, he never used his intelligence and power to retaliate against others; after getting the ring and the bronze mirror, Yu Ning rarely abused the power of the mysterious items..."
Pei Yuan said that polluted people, because they have mastered powers that ordinary people do not possess, their emotions gradually get out of control without them realizing it.
Not only does he have a violent personality, he also has a destructive tendency. Ultimately, he loses control of the mysterious object, is attacked by it, and dies.
But looking at Yu Ning's performance along the way, there was nothing unusual at all.
Everything he does has a reason.
Even when he attacked Pei Yuan just now, everyone thought he was controlled by his emotions, even Ji Mingxia almost misunderstood him, but in the end it was proved that Yu Ning did it just to test Pei Yuan.
Obviously, at least so far, Yu Ning is still rational and shows no signs of going crazy.
Ji Mingxia kept talking, hoping that Pei Yuan could see the gentleness behind Yu Ning's introverted personality like he did.
Pei Yuan listened quietly, and when Ji Mingxia had almost finished speaking, he said to Ji Mingxia: "You are a very meticulous person to be able to see so many of his advantages."
Ji Mingxia was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then nodded and said, "Yes, Yu Ning has many, many advantages. You will feel it as long as you have some contact with him."
"How did you two know each other?" Pei Yuan asked.
"We, we are classmates." Seeing Pei Yuan asking proactively, Ji Mingxia immediately began to explain in detail.
The focus is on describing that Yu Ning's personality was different from that of ordinary people before he obtained the mysterious object.
But after he got the mysterious object, he became more organized, his thinking was clear, his IQ was high, and he was careful, cautious and gentle.
Pei Yuan seemed to understand what Ji Mingxia meant and said slowly: "Okay, I'll try it too."
Ji Mingxia said: "What if..." What if the future really reaches an unpredictable point...
Ji Mingxia said, hesitating: "Sorry to bother you..."
Pei Yuan understood Ji Mingxia's hint and nodded to him reassuringly.
Seeing this, Ji Mingxia finally smiled.
Just then, several red lights suddenly appeared near the tent.
Bao Guangyuan was the first to react. He turned his head and looked at Yu Ning with some horror.
Just now when Ji Mingxia started to praise Yu Ning, he also followed Ji Mingxia's praise, but Yu Ning's eyes became even colder.
Bao Guangyuan felt something was wrong at that time.
But Ji Mingxia's attention was all on Pei Yuan, and she didn't notice how long Yu Ning had been standing in the corner watching.
Feeling that Yu Ning had ill intentions at this moment, Bao Guangyuan shuddered all over and suddenly jumped up from where he was.
Ji Mingxia was also stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked towards the tent.
Then Yu Ning was seen walking out from the thick night.
His skin was unusually white, his black eyes were as deep as ink, and his other grey eye was as clear as glass.
Surprisingly, a drop of bright red blood fell on Yu Ning's cheek at this moment.
Yu Ning had a strange and delicate look to begin with. Although he was handsome, it was hard for people to get close to him.
It was late at night and the dew was cold. His face was indifferent, and with that drop of scarlet blood, it looked so eerie that it was almost frightening.
Ji Mingxia's expression changed suddenly.
He had just told Pei Yuan that Yu Ning was intelligent and rational, and never abused his abilities, but Yu Ning turned around and used the power of a mysterious item, and there was blood on his face for no apparent reason
Ji Mingxia looked again and discovered that Yu Ning seemed to be holding something in his hand.
The thing was long, slightly curled and squirming, with blood oozing out from time to time, staining Yu Ning's hands.
The red blood formed a sharp contrast with his pale skin. As Yu Ning walked along, blood dripped down his face. Coupled with his strange eyes and pale face, he looked as cold and eerie as a ghost.
Bao Guangyuan showed fear on his face and quickly ran behind Ji Mingxia and Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan looked at Yu Ning quietly without saying anything.
Ji Mingxia was the first to react. He quickly asked, "Yu Ning, what you are holding in your hand... is it a snake?"
"Yeah." Yu Ning responded and walked in front of the crowd.
He walked into the range of the light, and now everyone could finally see what he was holding.
It turned out to be a huge brown snake with a long and thick body and scales reflecting cold light.
Its head had been cut off by Yu Ning. Although the corpse was separated, the snake's body was still wriggling slightly, with blood oozing out. The scene was extremely creepy.
"It was a highly poisonous cobra. We found it in the tent," said Yu Ning.
"In the tent?" Ji Mingxia breathed a sigh of relief when he heard it, but then he realized what was happening and was frightened.
A snake suddenly appeared in the tent, and it was fortunate that Yu Ning discovered it first. If Ji Mingxia encountered this, firstly, his reaction ability would be slow, and secondly, even if he came to his senses, he would have no means of attack.
I guess he'll just get bitten.
Ji Mingxia said: "Did he sneak in when we weren't paying attention?"
"Yeah." Yu Ning said.
Pei Yuan looked at the dead cobra and said, "This is a primeval forest, and there are many wild animals. When the barrier was there before, it affected the entire area. Now that the barrier is gone, people can enter and exit freely, and so can animals. It's time to pay attention."
When Ji Mingxia heard what he said, he nodded repeatedly: "Fortunately, Yu Ning acted quickly, otherwise, in this deep mountain forest, if he was bitten by a snake, it would be terrible!"
Ji Mingxia said, looking at Bao Guangyuan who was still hiding behind him and showing his fear of Yu Ning, Ji Mingxia said to him: "Right?"
When Bao Guangyuan saw Ji Mingxia looking at him, he suddenly felt embarrassed.
He could probably tell that, for some unknown reason, Ji Mingxia wanted to speak well of Yu Ning in front of Pei Yuan, so that everyone could see the gentle and fragile side of Yu Ning beneath his aloof appearance.
As a result, after speaking for so long, he didn't expect Yu Ning to appear like this.
The fear that Bao Guangyuan showed when facing Yu Ning, and even his first reaction of running away, basically slapped Ji Mingxia in the face.
It can be seen that in his heart, Yu Ning has nothing to do with gentleness and kindness.
Realizing this, Bao Guangyuan smiled awkwardly: "Yes, yes."
Although Bao Guangyuan tried his best to show his support, the warm atmosphere of the meal completely disappeared after this interruption.
Ji Mingxia had just spent quite some time chattering about creating a positive image of Yu Ning, but it was completely destroyed in an instant.
Seeing that the time had passed, Yu Ning also went to deal with the snake corpse, and Ji Mingxia finally stopped talking.
After everyone finished their meal, it was already past eight o'clock. After tidying up a bit, it was time for a break.
Because a poisonous snake appeared in the tent, Ji Mingxia finally decided not to turn off the lights. Everyone slept near the flashlight so that small animals would not dare to approach.
As long as we can get through tonight safely, we can go down the mountain and leave tomorrow.
Ji Mingxia failed to create a positive image of Yu Ning in front of Pei Yuan. He was worried about the unknown energy and felt a little depressed.
The strange thing is that compared to Ji Mingxia who was in a depressed mood, Yu Ning was in a good mood.
After dealing with the poisonous snake, Yu Ning checked the entire tent, then made the bed, and waited for Ji Mingxia to come in and sleep.
Ji Mingxia quickly changed his clothes, lay down and prepared to close his eyes.
"Mingxia." Yu Ning said softly.
"Hmm?" Ji Mingxia opened his eyes and looked at Yu Ning dazedly, "What's wrong?"
"Are your ears okay?" Yu Ning asked.
Ji Mingxia didn't know if he was too sleepy, but he always felt that Yu Ning was looking at him with burning eyes. His usually calm face now seemed to show some expectation.
"My ears..." Ji Mingxia looked at Yu Ning curiously. He was a little slow due to sleepiness. After several seconds, Ji Mingxia came back to his senses and replied, "My ears are fine."
Yu Ning glanced at Ji Mingxia's ear and whispered, "Has it recovered?"
"Yeah." Ji Mingxia nodded.
Seeing that Yu Ning was relieved, Ji Mingxia thought for a moment, sat up from the ground, took his coat, and then took out ofloxacin eye drops and erythromycin ointment from his pocket.
While Yu Ning was in a good mood, Ji Mingxia Yu Ning said, "When I was talking to Pei Yuan in the evening, my ears suddenly hurt. When Pei Yuan found out, he gave them to me. I tried them when I was changing clothes just now. They are very simple. Just a drop is enough. They are really practical."
Ji Mingxia said that he hoped that Yu Ning could feel that Pei Yuan was an easy-going person through this practical medicine.
However, after listening to Ji Mingxia, Yu Ning did not answer her words, but asked: "You have tried it, how do you feel now?"
"It's very comfortable and cool. Now I don't feel uncomfortable at all." Ji Mingxia said.
"That's good." Yu Ning nodded, helped Ji Mingxia put away the medicine, and said calmly, "Go to sleep."
As Yu Ning spoke, he turned off the small light in the tent and covered Ji Mingxia with clothes.
Li You was dead, the ghost disappeared, and Ji Mingxia's injuries were almost healed, so their tent was once again separated into two.
Ji Mingxia followed his movements and lay down naturally. It was not until Yu Ning returned to his tent that Ji Mingxia realized belatedly that Yu Ning's indifferent reaction showed that he did not want to talk about Pei Yuan at all.
So... he killed the snake today on purpose.
Ji Mingxia thought.
If a normal person encountered a poisonous snake in the tent, they would lose their composure and do whatever it takes to save their life.
But with Yu Ning's personality and abilities, he could have handled it better.
For Yu Ning, it was not difficult to kill the snake on the spot and throw it away, or to throw it into the water and let it flow away along the spring.
But this time, after he killed the person, he brought him in front of everyone, letting everyone see the bloody scene...
It would be nothing if it was normal times, but at this moment, Yu Ning seemed to be suspected of being "contaminated".
Ji Mingxia tried hard to justify Yu Ning's behavior in front of Pei Yuan, but Yu Ning refused. He didn't want Pei Yuan to see his strengths at all, and even wished that there would be no interaction between them at all.
Thinking of this, Ji Mingxia couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
Yu Ning and Pei Yuan did not meet at the right time. From the current perspective, not only did they not become close friends, but they developed in the opposite direction.
Ji Mingxia chose to believe Pei Yuan, and Yu Ning was willing to believe him, so he could also believe Pei Yuan.
You can eat with him and go camping with him.
But becoming friends, or even going further, is completely impossible given the current situation.
Yu Ning was essentially hostile to Pei Yuan.
Unfortunately, he didn't know about the "pollution" incident, nor did he know Pei Yuan's suspicion of him.
Ji Mingxia was thinking so much that he couldn't fall asleep.
Should he tell Yu Ning about Pei Yuan's suspicion? Under what circumstances should he tell him? And how should Yu Ning react
Because he had so many things on his mind, Ji Mingxia, who always had excellent sleep quality, tossed and turned until late at night before he could barely fall asleep.
When he opened his eyes again, it was already daybreak.
When Ji Mingxia walked out of the tent, he found that he was the last one to get up.
Pei Yuanhou closed his eyes and rested on the side. Yu Ning had already tidied up everything except the tent. Bao Guangyuan was sitting on his leaf bed. When he saw Ji Mingxia wake up, he quickly moved to Ji Mingxia's side.
"You finally woke up. I was alone, so weak, so helpless, and so scared." Bao Guangyuan said in a low voice with a bitter face.
"What's wrong?" Ji Mingxia didn't sleep well last night and just woke up, feeling a little dazed.
"What did you do last night? Why did Yu Ning get up so early in the morning and be in such a low mood?" Bao Guangyuan whispered.
"Low pressure?" Ji Mingxia was stunned for a moment, "I didn't do anything."
Ji Mingxia thought carefully about what happened last night, and he simply mentioned the medicines Pei Yuan had sent. Although Yu Ning did not answer him, he did not seem to be interested either.
There's nothing wrong with this kind of thing.
Thinking of this, Ji Mingxia glanced in the direction of Yu Ning.
After seeing Ji Mingxia wake up, Yu Ning started to prepare breakfast. Ji Mingxia paid special attention to Yu Ning's expression and behavior. Although he was still cold and indifferent, he was no different from usual.
When distributing food, it was done equally based on the principle of fairness, and there was no abnormal behavior.
"Did Yu Ning do anything?" Ji Mingxia asked.
Bao Guangyuan felt a pair of eyes on him, and could only whisper: "Nothing, I just feel that he and Pei Yuan... are not compatible. These two people must have been enemies in their previous lives."
Ji Mingxia: …
No... they are a couple...
"Everything will be resolved after we leave here." Ji Mingxia said, not knowing whether he was comforting Bao Guangyuan or himself.
After breakfast and packing our luggage, we left the mountain spring and walked down the mountain.
After this period of recuperation, the wounds on Ji Mingxia's body have scabbed over. Although his movements are still a little slower than usual, he has no problem walking normally.
The terrain of the mountain is steep and it is difficult to climb up the mountain, but going down the mountain is quite fast as long as you keep your balance and pay attention to safety.
All the people in the group were men, and they walked quite fast along the way, and successfully got down the mountain before noon.
It's just that along the way, there was always a long distance between Pei Yuan and Yu Ning.
Ji Mingxia and Bao Guangyuan walked in the middle. Although there were four people walking, only Ji Mingxia and Bao Guangyuan talked to each other the whole time. Yu Ning and Pei Yuan were both exceptionally silent.
Ji Mingxia thought about what Bao Guangyuan said in the morning and paid close attention. He found that although Yu Ning concealed it very well in front of him, Ji Mingxia was so familiar with Yu Ning that he still noticed some clues.
Yu Ning did not look very happy.
But before going to bed last night, Yu Ning was in a good mood. The two of them discussed Ji Mingxia's ear inflammation and didn't mention anything else.
Ji Mingxia was puzzled until they reached the edge of the forest and came to the vicinity of the commercial vehicle driven by Li You, Song Yuelin and others.
When Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia first saw this car, it was already in a state of disrepair.
Now, a few days have passed, and several battles have occurred again near the commercial vehicle. The car has been completely destroyed and its original appearance cannot even be recognized.
