What made Luo Caisi relieved was that there were no wild beasts in the cave, only some animal bones and broken leaves and branches were piled up.
Luo Caisi cleaned up the cave, and after bringing Lan Xiaobu into the cave, her whole body was exhausted. Previously she was busy, so she did not feel anything, but now that she stopped, Luo Caisi felt pain all over her body, and her body was also cold.
She took out a few band-aids and pasted them on her shoulder, and then took out her only coat from her bag and wrapped it around her body. The wind from the mountain stream blew, Luo Caisi shivered, she felt very cold. Her eyes subconsciously fell on Lan Xiaobu's feet, Lan Xiaobu's body was still wet, and even barefoot, if this continued, he would definitely fall sick.
Although she was exhausted, Luo Caisi still picked up some dry branches and brought them over, and then made a fire at the entrance of the cave.
Under the light of the fire, Luo Caisi finally warmed up a little. At this moment she was even a little glad that she still had a lighter in her bag.
Lan Xiaobu's clothes began to steam, Luo Caisi took out a towel, and simply helped Lan Xiaobu wipe his clothes, and then wrapped the towel around Lan Xiaobu's chest.
She did not dare to give her coat to Lan Xiaobu, she was worried that she would fall sick. Once she fell sick, she and Lan Xiaobu would have a dead end.
The night gradually deepened, Luo Caisi looked at the misty valley outside, she had a kind of hesitation in her heart, she did not know what she should do next.
From the depths of the mountain stream came the roar of an unknown wild beast, making Luo Caisi's heart uneasy. She subconsciously moved closer to Lan Xiaobu, looking at Lan Xiaobu's blank eyes, she hesitated for a moment and asked, "Lan Xiaobu, why did you appear in the Qinling Mountain Range?"
Lan Xiaobu muttered to himself and paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about this problem. But soon, he frowned in pain and began to mutter again.
Luo Caisi felt that there was nothing wrong with Lan Xiaobu. At the very least, he could understand his own name. Something must have triggered him. If she wanted to save Lan Xiaobu, she had to take it slow. She absolutely could not rush.
The flame gradually dimmed. Luo Caisi added a few pieces of dry wood into it. When the flame rose again, Luo Caisi's thoughts were once again immersed in the dark night outside the mountain stream.
Luo Caisi had a very long dream. She dreamed that she was about to come up with a treatment plan for her grandfather, but she lacked a medicinal ingredient. She went deep into the mountains to search for this medicinal ingredient alone, but in the end, she lost her way in the mountains. While she was looking for directions, she encountered a pack of wolves. In her panic, she fell into the depths of a cliff while trying to escape.
Fear caused Luo Caisi to suddenly wake up. She saw that she was leaning on Lan Xiaobu's body, and Lan Xiaobu's body was burning hot, but he was still muttering to himself.
Not good, Lan Xiaobu was sick.
The sky outside the cave was already a bit bright. Clearly, the sky was about to brighten.
Luo Caisi felt that she was a bit dizzy. She hurriedly took out her phone from her bag and put the SIM card back in. She was a doctor, but the direction of her research was still Western medicine. Right now, she had neither the medicinal ingredients nor the equipment on hand. She wanted to save Lan Xiaobu, but she was powerless.
Just as she was about to make the call, she put it down. At this time, she actually did not know who to ask for help?
She had very few friends. She did not even have a close friend. The only one who could help her was the Luo family. Once she called back, she was afraid that she would be grounded. As for Lan Xiaobu, even if the Luo family did not do anything to Lan Xiaobu, they would definitely not risk offending Thousand Resonance to save Lan Xiaobu.
She was a bit regretful that she did not ask for Ji Zheng's phone number. If she had Ji Zheng's phone number, she could call Ji Zheng. Ji Zheng and Lan Xiaobu jointly published a thesis. Their relationship should be pretty good.
"Lan Xiaobu, Lan Xiaobu, stop muttering. You are in danger right now …" After putting down the phone, Luo Caisi could only crazily shake Lan Xiaobu. She hoped that Lan Xiaobu would wake up.
But Lan Xiaobu turned a deaf ear to Luo Caisi's words. His eyes were still blank as he muttered to himself.
This was the first time Luo Caisi felt so helpless. Back then, when she crossed the ocean to a foreign country, she had never felt so helpless.
She always felt that she was very strong. Now, she realized that her strength was just a disguise. Tears welled up in her eyes. Luo Caisi forced herself not to cry. She felt a bit dry. She stood up shakily. She wanted to go out and get some water. But just as she stood up, her body swayed. Then, she weakly fell to the ground.
Luo Caisi knew that she was sick. Her head was dizzy and she should have a fever now.
"Lan Xiaobu … Don't always talk to yourself. We are all sick. You are a man, you are a man …" Luo Caisi shook Lan Xiaobu again. Lan Xiaobu still looked blank as he muttered to himself.
Luo Caisi finally could not help but cry. She was not strong at all. What she did before was laughable. Now, she realized that she was very weak. She needed someone strong to rely on. She did not need to take care of a crazy man in the wilderness.
"Lan Xiaobu … Are we all going to die here? Lan Xiaobu … "Luo Caisi wiped her tears. Her heart was uneasy. Her mouth muttered the same words as Lan Xiaobu. Then, she slowly closed her eyes.
After an unknown amount of time, Luo Caisi once again opened her eyes. The sky was already bright, but the outside of the cave was still gray.
The fog and the fog of the deep mountains overlapped. Even in the depths of the Qinling Mountain, the sun still could not shine in.
Luo Caisi struggled to the entrance of the cave. She looked out of the cave. A faint light seemed to pass through all the obstacles and fell on her face.
The roars of wild beasts came from the distance. Luo Caisi did not seem to hear it. She still looked up at the light. Her thoughts gradually drifted away. She seemed to feel that she could follow the light out of the fog and find a place that she yearned for.
"Lan Xiaobu, if there was no fog, then wouldn't the light be able to directly shine into the place where we live …" Luo Caisi's cheeks still had traces of tears. She stretched out her hand to catch that ray of sunlight.
After crying, her fake hard shell seemed to have been broken. Although her body was weak and her head was still dizzy, but her heart actually relaxed. If her grandfather was still here, she would also be a little girl. She would be the little girl that her grandfather loved the most.
Perhaps the biggest fear in life was death. When she forgot about death, she would be able to face everything calmly.
"Lan Xiaobu …" Luo Caisi called out again. Then, she turned around and found that Lan Xiaobu had disappeared. She was startled. She hurriedly called out, "Lan Xiaobu, Doctor Lan …"
In the surroundings, besides the sound of flowing water and the chirping of birds, there were only the occasional roars of wild beasts. Luo Caisi panicked. She stood up with the help of the stone wall. Her head was getting dizzier. She was once again afraid. Previously, when she was with Lan Xiaobu, even if Lan Xiaobu was just a hoodlum who needed her care, she still felt that she could rely on him. Or at least she had a partner. Now that she was alone in this place, she felt an indescribable loneliness and fear in her heart.
"Doctor Lan … Lan Xiaobu …"
No one responded. After a while, her voice came from the depths of the mountain stream. It seemed even more empty. Luo Caisi shivered. She suddenly felt that the biggest fear in life was not death, but loneliness and solitude. Being alone would make you afraid. Being alone would make you even more afraid.
Feeling that she had regained some strength, Luo Caisi held onto the stone wall and walked out. She wanted to find Lan Xiaobu. The unbearable loneliness made her unable to stay here alone.
"Wuu …" A familiar wolf howl sounded. Luo Caisi's face turned pale. It was the grey wolf from yesterday. It had actually come again.
Luo Caisi immediately thought of Lan Xiaobu. Lan Xiaobu was not in the cave. Did he go out alone and get eaten by the grey wolf? Thinking of the grey wolf biting Lan Xiaobu, Luo Caisi could not help but tremble. She wanted to crawl back into the cave. But she was very clear in her heart. Even if she went back into the cave, the grey wolf would still find her and eat her.
Tears once again fell uncontrollably. Dying in this place was one thing. But to be torn apart and eaten by the wolf, Luo Caisi could not help but feel frightened.
Holding onto the stone wall, she stood at the entrance of the cave for a few minutes. Luo Caisi took a deep breath. She seemed to have made up her mind. She once again slowly moved into the cave. She took out a cute cartoon hairpin from her backpack and inserted it into her short hair. Then she took out a box from her bag. Opening the box, there was a necklace inside. The necklace was not very good. It was just an ordinary pearl necklace. Luo Caisi spent a lot of effort to tie the necklace around her neck. She ran her fingers through her hair and muttered to herself, "I don't know if grandpa is doing well underground."
"Caisi is dead? East of the mountains. Who cares about the clouds? Beautiful Meng is mediocre …. "
Luo Caisi muttered to herself. The corners of her mouth slightly rose. Her face also became a little rosy. "Grandpa said that I am the most beautiful girl in the Luo Family. In the future, there will be an indomitable man who will ask me to go to the most beautiful place. Only then can I marry him …."
Luo Caisi looked up at the misty sky. "Maybe that man of mine is at the other end of the sky. I want to dress up in the most beautiful way possible …."
"Wuu Ao …." The grey wolf howled again. Luo Caisi returned to reality. Her mind was getting heavier and heavier. She shook her head. "Am I going to die?"
She knew deep in her heart that she might not be able to live much longer. Otherwise, why would she always think of her grandpa?
Trying hard to throw away these thoughts, Luo Caisi still walked in the direction of the wolf howling. Lan Xiaobu should have been eaten by the wolf. Instead of waiting for the wolf to come to the cave and eat her, she might as well take the initiative to go there. At least before she died, she would have someone to accompany her. Compared to death, she was more afraid of loneliness. Even if she died, she did not want to wander alone on the road to the Yellow Springs. With Lan Xiaobu, at least she would have someone to accompany her.
