Ningxue reached out her hand and wanted to wipe the remaining water at the corner of his mouth. This was her habit every time she fed him water. Because in the past, every time she finished drinking water, he would help her wipe the corner of her mouth. Ningxue stretched out her hand halfway and suddenly thought of something. She withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted and asked nervously, "Brother, are you hungry?"
Ning Xue retracted her hand very quickly, but that brief glimpse had caused Ye Wuchen's heart to tremble violently. His weak breathing suddenly became chaotic. With a hoarse voice, he asked anxiously, "Xue 'er, let me see your hand."
Ningxue was stunned at first, and then she hid her hand behind her back reflexively. Her expression became flustered, "I … My hand is very good. I don't want to show it to you …"
Her action of trying to hide made him know that what he saw just now was not an illusion. He said slowly and firmly, "Cher, listen to your brother and give me your hand."
In front of Ye Wuchen, Ningxue had no power to refuse at all. She finally took her hands out from behind and carefully opened them in front of Ye Wuchen.
Although he was prepared, the moment Ye Wuchen's eyes met her palm, his heart suddenly felt as if it had been pierced by thousands of steel needles at the same time. His heart ached so much that he almost suffocated. He even couldn't believe it. Were these really Ningxue's hands?
The shape of her hands was still so petite and perfect. He used to hold these two small hands slowly in his palm and enjoy this feeling. The white and flawless hands in his memory were now covered with thick calluses. They were very thick, dark, yellow, and some even had big or small blood blisters. On his palm and fingers, there were countless scars of various sizes. Some were scars that had aged for a long time, while others were only recently carved. There were too many scars that destroyed his entire palm until there was not an inch of skin left unscathed. The wrist below the palm was also full of scars …
Ye Wuchen looked at it for a while, closed his eyes, and couldn't bear to look at it any more. He couldn't imagine how many times it had to be broken, how much friction, and how much pain it had to endure to turn a pair of hands that were even more tender than snow into this state. The scars on his body were like incomparably sharp knives that ruthlessly stabbed into the softest part of his heart, causing him to be in so much pain that he wished he were dead.
What was a ghastly sight …
"Does it hurt?" Ye Wuchen asked in a trembling voice.
Ningxue took her hand back and put it on his body. She shook her head anxiously and said, "No, it doesn't hurt at all."
"But, it hurts." Ye Wuchen looked at her sparkling eyes and felt a heartache that he had never felt before. Even on the night of the full moon, he had never felt such pain.
In this world, who could be more beautiful than his Cher? Even the fairies in the heavens couldn't compare to his Snow 'er.
…
Ningxue came to this mysterious forest again, but her mood was completely different from before. It was the same eagerness in her heart. Ye Wuchen's awakening made her even more unwilling to be separated from him. She just wanted to find the fruit she wanted as soon as possible and return to his side as soon as possible. On the way here, she cheered in her heart again and again, "Brother has woken up! Brother has woken up … "
She had come to this small forest too many times. Although she never dared to go deep into it, she could remember the location of almost every tree in the periphery very clearly. She was also very familiar with some of the small animals that often appeared. This time, her footsteps were obviously much lighter than before. When she stepped into a haystack, there was a sudden movement in the grass. Ningxue was so frightened that she took a step back, and a frightened rabbit jumped out of the haystack and ran forward quickly.
Before Ning Xue could regain her senses, the panicking rabbit knocked into a sturdy ancient tree with a "bang". After being knocked into, it fell flat on its back. The rabbit's paws and legs twitched a few times before it stopped moving.
Ningxue widened her eyes and stared for a long time. Seeing that the rabbit was still not moving, she patted her pounding chest and walked over. She crouched down and used her hand to carefully touch the rabbit's body. Seeing that it still did not react, she picked it up and ran back quickly.
For a whole two years, she and Ye Wuchen had not eaten any meat. This was because she was a little girl and could not catch wild animals. Even if she could catch them, she did not dare to kill them. Today, this poor rabbit that had knocked itself to death was like a gift from the heavens. She could give it to her brother who had just woken up to nourish his body.
"Big brother, look, I caught a rabbit." From afar, she lifted the poor rabbit high up in the air and shook it while giggling. To her, this was really an amazing thing. Because she ran too fast, she lost her balance and fell onto the grass. She struggled to get up, but still had a happy expression on her face.
Her smile made Ye Wuchen's dull and stinging heart feel better. He silently thanked this rabbit that had fallen into her hands for some unknown reason. To him, Ningxue's smile was the most beautiful scenery in his life.
Ningxue ran to his side and happily showed him the fat rabbit in her hands: "Brother, look, hehe, this rabbit is so stupid. It actually knocked itself into a tree. It's so stupid!"
Knocked itself into a tree? Ye Wuchen found it funny and shouted "no wonder" in his heart. Then, he couldn't help but think of a story called "waiting for a rabbit by a stump" in his mind.
"Brother, let's eat this stupid rabbit, okay?" She giggled, but immediately thought of something. The corners of her mouth twitched, and she became a little anxious: "But, there's no fire here. How are we going to cook this rabbit …"
Ye Wuchen moved the fingers on his left hand and said, "Xue 'er, come to my side. I have a fire, a stove, and everything else. Did Cher forget? "
The God of Swords Ring on his finger flickered with a white light, and fire elements were injected into it. There was a fire box, a pot, a ladle, and a stove for starting a fire. There was even a lot of dry firewood that had been put in casually before. These were all brought with them when they went to the Volcano of Annihilation in Tenryū Province. They had also been used the whole way, and had always been stored in his God of Swords Ring. In addition, their bed, tent, and some unfinished food were all in it. Taking things out of the God of Swords Ring only required thought, not strength.
Everything in front of her eyes was so familiar. After Ningxue's joy, her nose began to slowly turn sour. She missed sleeping in her brother's arms lazily, she missed Oculum, she missed many people … It was just that she would never be able to see them again in this lifetime. The Death Abyss, which was so high that the top could not be seen, completely separated them into two different worlds, and they would never meet again.
Ningxue quickly started a fire, and she finally saw the color of the fire again. There was green grass under her feet, and she didn't have to worry about starting a fire. But after starting a fire, Ningxue was at a loss as she held the dead rabbit in her hands. Whether it was roasting or boiling, she had to first peel off the skin of the rabbit. Ningxue had never done it before, and it was almost impossible for her to do it. Although she could eat very well, every time Ye Wuchen peeled the skin of an animal, she didn't even dare to look at it.
Ye Wuchen immediately guessed what she was thinking, and said with pity: "Cher, can I eat this rabbit after I recover my strength? I still have a lot of pastries here to eat. "
Ningxue thought for a while, but she slowly and resolutely shook her head. She held the rabbit in one hand and a knife in the other, and walked to the side of the stream.
When she extended the knife to the rabbit's body, her hand trembled again and again, and she didn't dare to really put it down. After a long time, she gritted her teeth and fiercely stabbed the knife down, and closed her eyes tightly …
"I'm sorry, little rabbit, big brother's body needs nourishment, so I'll have to trouble you …"
"I'm sorry, little rabbit, I'm really sorry …"
She was completely relying on her own feelings as she cut the rabbit's body with the knife. After the initial reluctance and fear, her heart finally calmed down a little. However, her hands were still trembling, and there were a few times when she almost got cut by the knife. She kept murmuring softly, saying "I'm sorry" to the little rabbit in her hand over and over again. Only then would her heart feel a little better.
Listening to Ningxue's low murmurs, Ye Wuchen also softly called Ningxue's name in his heart. If it wasn't for her, he would never dare to stain his hands with blood, even if it was just a dead rabbit.
By the time she finished processing the rabbit, Ningxue was already sweating profusely. She put the rabbit into the pot, and then filled it with water from the stream. Then, under Ye Wuchen's guidance, she added all kinds of seasonings. When the smell of meat that she hadn't tasted for a long time came, Ningxue couldn't stop her saliva no matter how hard she tried. As she continuously swallowed, there was still a sparkling clear stream that flowed out from the corner of her mouth. She hadn't tasted oil in a long time.
"Big brother, do you think big sister, and big sister Oculum are doing well? Are they thinking about us? "Ningxue asked while swallowing her saliva.
Ye Wuchen said with a smile, "They must be thinking about us like we are thinking about them. Your big sister Oculum 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 into the Broken Soul Abyss that day, Oculum's breath was almost as weak as his. She was the same as him, making a desperate struggle. Her enemy was so powerful that she couldn't compete with him.
Was she in the same situation as him, already forced into a dead end? And what happened to Ye Shuiyao, who was waiting for him in the Great Wind Nation …
Thinking of this, his heart was in a mess. He once again thought about the person who forced Oculum into a dead end. Who was it that had such strength? And it was the appearance of this person that forced Oculum to leave Ningxue, made Ningxue be taken away by the Great Wind Nation, and changed everything that should have happened.
Who was that person? Tianchen Continent, when on earth did such a formidable powerhouse appear?
Or, that person … didn't belong to the Tianchen Continent at all. As soon as this thought appeared, Ye Wuchen's heart suddenly trembled. Another possibility became clearer and clearer in his mind.
