Seeing them stagnating and not knowing how much time it will take, Chi Yue patiently panicked under the hunger, took Wen Qizhou's hand, and walked into the forest together to find a place to rest.

After walking 600 meters, a stream came into view. She found a rock and sat down, leaned over to wash her hands, and then took out two hamburgers and his belly pad from the space.

From waking up to now, she only ate half a piece of roasted sweet potato. As soon as she smelled the aroma of the burger, she couldn't help but bite into it, filling her mouth with bread and beef.

"Eat slowly, don't choke." Wen Qizhou took out the thermos cup from the mountaineering bag, unscrewed the lid and handed it to her.

Chi Yue answered vaguely.

She slowed down her chewing movements, pushed aside the greaseproof paper containing the burger with her fingertips, took a sip of water, and took a second bite.

After eating a hamburger, her empty stomach was satisfied, and she no longer groaned.

"Shall we pitch a tent here tonight?" She leaned on Wen Qizhou's chest: "It's more convenient to have a water source."

"can."

Wen Qizhou put his arms around her waist.

He took a flashlight to shine on those slender white hands, and found that the skin on the wrist was broken. He frowned slightly, and took out an iodophor cotton swab from his pocket: "Does it hurt? Why didn't you tell me?"

"It doesn't hurt." She lowered her eyes and watched him twist the cotton swab and apply iodophor on her: "I didn't even notice it myself."

They had to rely on flashlights for lighting on the road. As long as there was no bleeding, it was difficult to detect the scratches on the wrists unless they looked carefully.

Wen Qizhou put a Band-Aid on her.

Remembering that Chi Yue stepped on the broken board just now, he bent down, lifted up her trousers, and checked carefully again.

He was relieved to be sure that he was not injured.

He put the flashlight between his knees, followed the beam of light to look at the gurgling stream, his fingertips slipped into Chi Yue's fingers, and while wrapping his arms around her waist, he clasped her fingers tightly.

"Yueyue." He pondered for a while, still frowning Qingjun: "I just realized how you felt before."

The moment she stepped on the air and fell, his whole body seemed to have been hit by a heavy hammer, and even the depths of his soul trembled.

Looking back at this moment, I am still afraid.

Afraid of not being able to catch her, afraid of losing her completely.

"It's all over." Chi Yue knew that he was referring to the previous life, and she witnessed how he felt when he was submerged in the flood.

She raised her head, painted his eyebrows and eyes in the dim light, and said softly: "Aren't we doing well now?"

Wen Qizhou was silent for a long time.

He caressed that radiant face, no longer assuming things that didn't happen, and worrying about himself in the present.

"Well, we'll be fine in the future." He leaned against Chi Yue's forehead, and kissed her soft lips lightly.

Chi Yue bent her eyes and smiled.

They listened to the sound of running water and the symphony played by insects and birds, and sat quietly by the stream, enjoying a moment of peace.

Not long after, a ray of light came from the forest.

She poked her head out of Wen Qizhou's arms, glanced in the direction of the footsteps, and judged that it was Xie Changxiao and Chi Yunyan from her figure, and asked, "How about those people?"

"Fall down the mountain."

"all?"

"No." Xie Changxiao put down Xun Song, who was in his arms, and led him to the stream: "The man who is afraid of heights and the girl behind him are still on the bridge, and the rest fell down the mountain."

"Where are the people at the bridge?"

"They shouted for the soldiers to go back to pick them up. The soldiers don't know the way, so how can they pick them up? It's even more impossible for Master Ming to lead the way. They can only find a way to come from the bottom of the mountain by themselves."

Clear and not stupid.

He was willing to let them into the Taoist temple, and he was willing to take them out of Yuanyun Mountain, which was the limit of kindness. Once it involved his own safety, there was absolutely no room for negotiation.

"Then did they go down the mountain?"

"It seems to be walking a U-shaped ring." After washing his face, Chi Yunyan found a place to sit down: "Sister, you were not injured just now, right?"

"No."

Chi Yue handed him a pack of tissues.

Thinking that they were still hungry, she rummaged through her backpack and found two bags of homemade spicy dried rabbit meat some time ago, and handed them to them: "Eat something first."

"Okay." Chi Yunyan was so hungry that he chewed slowly with a piece of jerky in his mouth: "Shall we go forward?"

"Not leaving for now."

When Mingzhang and his party approached, Chi Yue talked about staying on this mountain temporarily and setting up a tent near the water source for a night's rest.

There are four tents in their backpacks, and each tent is large enough to accommodate 11 people without any problem.

"Let's ride on the opposite side." Wen Yaxian glanced at the location of the residents: "It's too close, it's easy to cause trouble."

"Okay." Everyone stepped across the stream.

Chi Yunyan looked back at the soldiers' team, but he didn't see the boy who was afraid of heights and the brown-haired girl. He asked them curiously, "Why didn't that girl go to the end of the bridge?"

"She was dragged down by the people in front."

"..."

He lamented that being kind would cost people their lives, and he stopped discussing them too much, and strode to the tree to set up a tent.

Because they were too tired, after they set up the four tents, they didn't bother to prepare dinner. They simply ate some dried meat to fill their stomachs, and they each locked the door chains and lay down to rest.

The people on the other side of the stream didn't bother to move.

They gnawed on the biscuit pads, squeezed together three tents, and fell asleep with exhaustion and sleepiness.
