"Brother, brother …" A clear and sweet voice came from not far away. A young girl in a coarse hemp dress looked around, looking for her brother.
She walked into the depths of the forest. Not long after, she stopped and looked in surprise at a person lying in the weeds in front of her.
Could it be her brother? She hurriedly ran over and found that it was a naked boy covered with a large piece of snakeskin.
"You … Who are you? Why are you here? " The girl cried out in surprise. No outsider had ever entered this forest. Except for her brother and herself, no one dared to come in.
"Hey hey, are you dead?" The girl opened a pair of round eyes and looked at the boy curiously and nervously. She gently poked him with a tree branch in her hand. Could he be a dead person?
The girl felt very strange. The boy did not look like he had been bitten by a beast. Why was he lying there motionless? Moreover, didn't her brother go hunting? Why didn't she see him?
"What a big snakeskin." The girl touched the snakeskin with the tree branch. If there was such a big snake in the forest, the men in their village would have come out to catch it. Moreover … she could not tell what kind of snake it was.
It did not look like a python.
Just as she was about to lift the snakeskin, the tree branch was grabbed by a slender hand. The person lying on the weeds raised his head, revealing a delicate and beautiful face. His long and narrow eyes seemed to be covered with a thin layer of mist. He looked at her innocently and curiously.
"Hey, you're still alive." The girl cried out in surprise. "How did you fall asleep here?"
It was still a boy, and a very good-looking boy. He had a pair of long and narrow eyes and skin as clean as jade. However, why was he here and not wearing clothes?
The boy slowly sat up. When he saw the girl hurriedly turn around, he realized that he was not wearing clothes. He wrapped the snakeskin around his body and turned to look around. He frowned and asked, "Where is this?"
"You don't know where this is, then how did you get here?" The girl glanced at him from the corner of her eyes, then turned around and squatted in front of him. She looked at him curiously. "I've never seen you before. Who are you? What's your name? "
"I …" The youth frowned in confusion, realizing that he had no idea what his name was. "I don't know."
The girl's eyes widened. "Who doesn't know their own name?"
The youth said, "I don't know."
"Then … where do you live?" the girl asked.
"I don't know." The youth glanced at her. "What's your name?"
"My name is Xiao Yao," the girl said, drawing on the ground with her hand. "It's this Xiao."
The youth looked at him silently for a while. "My name is Wen Tian."
"You remember?" Xiaoyao asked in surprise. He said he didn't remember, and then he remembered. This person was so strange.
"Here." The youngster pointed to a thumb-sized iron plate on the ground, on which the two words "Wen Tian" were engraved.
Xiaoyao picked up the iron plate and found that it looked like it was made of iron, but in fact, it was not. She couldn't tell what material it was made of. She only felt that even her palms were cold when she held it in her hands.
"So cold." Xiaoyao threw the card back. "Well, then you can call yourself Wen Tian first, but you don't even know where your home is."
Wen Tian looked at Ye Zhen with blurred eyes. He couldn't understand what she meant by home.
"Do you still know where you come from?" Xiaoyao asked.
"Xiaoyao, who are you talking to?" At this time, a teenager came from the other side of the woods. He frowned at Xiaoyao. When he saw the snakeskin on Wen Tian, his face became a little ugly. "Who is he?"
"Brother." Xiaoyao cried happily, stood up and ran to the teenager. She looked back at Wen Tian. "His name is Wen Tian. He forgot where his home is. He looks so pitiful."
Wen Tian didn't speak, just kept looking at Xiaoyao.
The pair of innocent and pitiful eyes softened Xiaoyao's heart.
"How many times have I told you not to talk to strangers?" The teenager said. He was Xiaoyao's brother, Woo Sheng.
"He doesn't look like a bad person." Xiaoyao argued in a low voice. "And he looks pitiful."
Woo Sheng scolded, "Bad people don't write the word 'bad' on their faces. Well, I've caught a lot of prey today. I'll have meat to eat tonight."
Xiaoyao beamed with joy. She liked eating meat best.
The brother and sister left hand in hand. Wen Tian didn't stop them, but kept looking at Xiaoyao's back.
When they were about to walk out of the woods, Xiaoyao couldn't help looking back and seeing a pair of eyes like those of an innocent little beast. She took Woo Sheng's hand and said, "Brother, he looks so pitiful. He doesn't even remember his name. He can't go home. He will be eaten by beasts after dark. Let's take him back."
"Xiaoyao!" Woo Sheng frowned and didn't agree with his sister taking a stranger back.
"Brother, brother …" Xiaoyao took Woo Sheng's hand and said in a soft voice.
Woo Sheng sighed. "I really don't know what to do with you. I can only take him in for one night and let him go tomorrow."
Xiaoyao clapped her hands happily. "Thank you, brother."
"My words haven't …" Woo Sheng still wanted to tell Xiaoyao, but she didn't listen to him and ran to Wen Tian's side.
"Tian, my brother promised you to live in my house. Let's go. Tomorrow I will take you to the best doctor in our village. She will cure your illness and let you remember where you live as soon as possible." Xiaoyao took Wen Tian's hand. In the eyes of the girl who was protected since childhood, there were no bad people in this world, so she didn't doubt whether Wen Tian was a good person or a bad person.
Wen Tian lowered his head and looked at Xiaoyao. He didn't say a word, but he still left with her.
Woo Sheng frowned and looked at him. It was really strange that this teenager appeared here. When he went hunting in the mountain this morning, he also passed by here, but he didn't see this teenager here.
"Brother, his name is Wen Tian," Xiaoyao said in a delicate voice.
"Didn't you say that he forgot everything? How do you know his name? "Woo Sheng said lightly.
Xiaoyao pointed at the plate in front of Wen Tian's chest. "This is engraved with Wen Tian, so I call him Tian."
Woo Sheng glanced at the iron plate. Although he had been hunting in the village, he could see that this plate was not an ordinary iron plate. It seemed that this teenager was not so simple.
"How did you appear here?" Woo Sheng asked.
"I don't know," Wen Tian answered straightforwardly. He didn't look at Woo Sheng, but kept looking at Xiaoyao.
Xiaoyao said to Woo Sheng, "Brother, let's go back. It's getting dark. When Wen Tian remembers, it will be good."
Woo Sheng helplessly stared at Xiaoyao. "Okay."
