Long time no see, Mr. Qin

Chapter 65 Facing the sea, spring flowers bloom (2)

So from this day on, the distance between Qin Ziyang and me is only a dozen meters away.

Every morning when I get up to pick mushrooms on the mountain, he follows behind. When I go to my grandma’s house to chat, he also follows. If any boy in the mountain shows favor to me, he will look at me with a sullen face like an enemy. other side.

I often think he is annoying, saying, this place is very boring, you better go.He said, with you, it will not be boring.

I had no choice but to continue to treat him as air.

"Young man, you can't chase after him like this. It's too gentle. You just kidnap someone and put him on the bed. Cook raw rice and make a big fat boy. This person must be yours."

"I'm already familiar with it." Qin Ziyang said lightly.

"Ah? Is that so...together? That's easy to handle. There's a lot of noise at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed. You just need to work harder."

"She has a stubborn temper, she has to calm down." Qin Ziyang looked at my blushing face and continued, calmly and authentically.

I glared at Qin Ziyang unhappily, turned around and went back to the room, until the door was closed, I could still hear the man say in a loud voice: "This girl, you have a really strong temper, brother, you have to suffer."

"Sweet as sweet as candy." Qin Ziyang's faint voice came from outside.I suddenly felt a little irritable, and I took the bamboo basket and went up the mountain.

Qin Ziyang hurried over and grabbed my arm, "It's raining and the mountain is slippery, so it's not suitable for going up the mountain."

"You don't have to worry about my affairs." I shook off his arm, carried the bamboo basket on my back, and strode forward.

I knew he was following me, and deliberately chose some difficult paths when going up the mountain.

"Nian Jin, this road is not easy to walk, be careful of falling." His voice was very low.

The more he said that, the more I walked on my own way.In fact, I never take this road on weekdays. First, it is muddy and difficult to walk, and second, it is very dangerous. If you fall, you may never get out again. Every year, people are trapped in it to death.

I heard a helpless sigh behind me, followed by footsteps and the sound of rain dripping on the leaves.

Gradually, the sky became darker and darker, and I climbed higher and higher.Just when I was about to stop and squat down to pick the mushrooms, a slippery little snake broke into my sight.

Because it was too sudden, my foot slipped, and I tripped over a tree root and fell down.I closed my eyes, my mind went blank, and as soon as I rolled, I felt someone rushing over to protect me firmly.But the downward pressure did not slow down, and the two of them slid down together.I don't know how long it took before my body gradually stopped.When I opened my eyes, I saw Qin Ziyang's worried face.

"Qin Ziyang, are you okay?" I called him, feeling a little flustered.The force of the downward rush was so great, even though he was firmly protecting me, my whole body was still in unbearable pain, and I was injured in many places, especially my legs, which were extremely painful.It hurts so much to even move, but what about him who has been holding me in his arms and desperately trying to protect me?
I didn't dare to think about it, so I turned around and went to investigate.

"It's okay." He said, and then took out his mobile phone, which showed that there was no signal.

"We have to go back before it's completely dark." He gritted his teeth and stood up unsteadily.

"Qin Ziyang... I don't seem to be well."

He quickly looked at me, "Are you hurt?"

"Well, my leg seems to be hurt."

"Come up." He knelt down.

"No, I can do it." I shook my head and refused.

"Su-Nian-Jin." He called me word by word, standing there calmly, his whole body was cold.

I gritted my teeth and walked a few steps, but the pain was still severe. I was afraid that it would delay my time, so I walked towards him with small steps and stepped on his back.

"If you're lucky, you should be safe after going up here," he said.

"What if you're not lucky?"

He said nothing.I didn't ask again.

It was getting dark, but the road seemed to never end.

There are only a few families in a radius of dozens of miles, scattered on several mountain ridges, and at this moment I have no idea where I am, let alone how to find help from the mountain people.

Although the rain had stopped, the night sky was still overcast with gloomy clouds, without a single star, and it was impossible to tell the direction.

The mountain walls on both sides are dark and steep, leaving only the narrow valley we are in, winding to nowhere.

It's really cold in the mountains in the middle of the night, never felt so cold in late autumn, the wind at night is whistling, like crying.

"Wrap yourself tightly." His voice was very dry, hoarse, like the sound of long-lost grass and trees rubbing against each other.

"Yeah." I leaned on his back, up and down with his bumps.

I felt that he was walking more and more slowly, his breathing was becoming more and more unsteady, and the hand that was always holding me tightly was gradually not as strong as it was at the beginning.

"Qin Ziyang." I called him.

"I'm here."

"If you're tired, put me down, my legs feel better."

He didn't speak, but supported my body that kept sliding even harder, forcing me to stay on his back.

Time passed by little by little, but he was like a furnace underneath him, warming me up in the howling wind and rain in the middle of the night.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and even the cruel waning moon hid in the depths of the clouds and disappeared.Gradually, I can't see my fingers...

At this moment, I am lying on Qin Ziyang's back, and as far as I can see, there is only the outline of the back of his head which is close at hand.

I don't know what's around me, the only thing I can feel is that Qin Ziyang's steps are very careful, very careful.

I don't know how long and how far I walked, but suddenly I just felt that my body lost its support.

Two people fell to the ground.

"Are you okay? Did it break?" Qin Ziyang rushed over to check.

It was pitch black, and I could only guess his location by his eager voice.

"I'm fine. How about you, Qin Ziyang, are you okay?"

"It's good that you're fine." He seemed relieved, "I just stepped on the ground. It's too dark here, so it's not suitable to go." He touched me and hugged me tightly in his arms.

I leaned against his chest and listened to his heartbeat.Such a scene has not been there for a long time.

"Qin Ziyang, do you still remember that time in New York, I love leaning on you like this the most."

"Remember." He said, "You still like to put your cold hands on my stomach."

"Yes, because every time this happens, you will frown, but you look like you don't care about me. I love your expression at that time."

"You usually cook some weird dishes when you have nothing to do, and then let me eat them." He laughed, his voice was low, but still so nice.

"Is it delicious? To be honest..."

He thought for a while, and I could imagine his frown.

"The taste is a bit strange, but it's bearable." He said for a long while.

"Just tolerable? Then you still eat it every time."

"Your eyes were full of anticipation at that time, and you said desperately that you didn't care. How could I bear not to join in?"

"You obviously did the most painful thing for me, so why would you be afraid of my discomfort?" I said, my voice a little sour.

"But in the end, I still found out that no one can do it except you. The wedding has been cancelled, and I'm on the way."

"Really..." I said softly, but my heart was filled with astonishment.At that time, I was determined to leave, and I even blocked all news about him. I didn't look at or touch anything about him.Hide even if you can't.

Thinking of these, I choked up a little.My whole body hurts, and I didn't want to talk anymore, so I leaned against him quietly and closed my eyes.

The night was long, never had it been so long.

I don't know how long it took, but I felt that there was a faint light shining down from the sky. I raised my head and looked up, "It's dawn."

"Ah."

I looked back and suddenly found that the steep slope we fell off yesterday was less than 100 meters behind.

After walking in the dark for so long last night, it turned out that I only moved such a short distance.

Qin Ziyang's face also sank, more serious than ever.Immediately, he picked me up again and started on the road again.

……

However, the mountain road seems to never end.

The pain in my leg was slowly dissipating, maybe it was numbness, but the exhaustion came in waves.

Where is Qin Ziyang who is carrying me?

I don't want to think about it.

"Su Nianjin."

"Ah."

"That tree... have we seen it?"

"It seems... I have indeed seen it."

—We're lost.

After walking with difficulty for a long time, but just going around in circles, like countless passers-by lost in the deep mountains and old forests.At this moment, a sense of fear came over me.He also stopped, found a tree root and sat down.

"Are you hungry?" He looked up at me.

"Not hungry."

I know he won't believe it. How can he not be hungry if he hasn't had any water or rice for almost a day and a night?
"Do you have anything to eat?"

I shook my head.

He took out a bar of chocolate, looked at it, and carefully broke off a small piece and handed it to me.

"This is the only food we have now, we need to save some food."

He carefully wrapped the remaining chocolate and put it back in his pocket.

……

I don't know how many days I have walked, it seems that we will never get out of this mountain again in this life.

Fortunately, it has just rained, and there is no need to worry about finding water in the mountain stream.

But food is a big problem. The only thing we can eat is the palm-sized piece of chocolate in Qin Ziyang's pocket.

Every half a day, he would reach into his pocket, take out a small piece of chocolate and hand it to me, and then repeatedly told me: "Hold on, Su Nianjin, you have always been the strongest."

"In your heart, I'm probably just a tough female man." I used teasing to alleviate the despair at the moment.

"Qin Ziyang, have you eaten yet?"

"I ate it before you noticed."
