you touched my years

Chapter 173 His panic
The night is terribly quiet. There are no insects or birds here, and they can't even hear the beasts in the distance. The night outside the house, and the cave where you can even hear the heartbeat. I don't know why, but I am sleepy again. Tired, but not sleepy at all.

After a long time, feeling the slight movement of the people around him, he asked, "Are you afraid?"

The body of the person in his arms was unnaturally stiff, making his eyes dark. She was a little different. She was not so easily startled and frightened before. Is it because the ancient tomb made her so sensitive?He was a little uncertain, the perception that she had something to hide from him was getting stronger and stronger, what happened.

"Don't be afraid, with you here, I'm not afraid."

These words please him again, she always seems to be able to make him feel better just right.

"Jiu'er is not afraid, I am here."

"Jiu'er" he called himself "Jiu'er", when did he change his name, and when did he actually call himself that, as if it was earlier?She didn't remember, but she didn't like this name when he called it out of his mouth, because what she wanted him to call the most was not the name Wen Jiu, but Liu Xiaoyu, Liu Xiaoyu, but, in the end, it was still not It's okay, Liu Xiaoyu may have become a cinnabar mole in his heart at this moment, or it may have become a nightmare that has been abandoned long ago, a woman who has lied to him, she doesn't think he can tolerate it with his personality.

But when I thought about it, I found it ridiculous. Didn't she also use up all the lies?Wen Jiu?Hahaha, Wen Jiu is just a splicing of half Liu and half Qiu, how could he know the true meaning of this.

"Aren't you afraid that I will hurt you?"

Liu Xiaoyu asked softly, she knew how guarded he was, and also knew that after the first contact, there were people around her who were watching him 24 hours a day, so she also wanted to know when she asked him this. , What kind of thoughts and feelings does Qiu Zeran have towards Wen Jiu at this moment.

Qiu Zeran didn't make a sound, afraid?Of course not, she had too many chances to kill him or harm him, but no, even if he was powerless, even if he was caught in a trap, this woman never thought of leaving, and always It was to save him in a way that even he didn't expect. How could he believe that this woman would harm her.

"Do you know?"

He asked back, of course she wouldn't, but she also didn't say it, and suddenly realized how ridiculous the question she asked was. After a moment of silence, she asked carefully: "You want Donglai country yourself!" Treasure?"

At this time, she asked such a question, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer it. There had been deals and alliances between them, but no one had really touched on the topic of Donglai National Treasure.

She provided the treasure map, and he provided the clues. She originally thought that such a tacit understanding should be known without asking, but now she asked him this question specifically, and he didn't know how to answer it.

Want treasure, money?No, he doesn't care about these things. What he wants is actually the truth. What he wants is to visit the legendary hidden village. What he wants is to know whether the mother he once pretended to exist still exists in the world. is it right or not.

But these, how would he tell her?lie?No, he didn't tell her, the truth?It seems that I haven't reached the point where I can say these things, so how should I answer them?
"What about you? Why are you looking for Donglai Country?"

His rhetorical question was an obvious avoidance of the question. According to the past, both of them should have stopped the topic and stopped discussing it. However, instead of changing the topic, they got a soft sentence from her, short Those few words seemed to exhaust all her strength, the breath of her life.

"Because of a promise."

Promise, he closed his lips tightly, and he didn't spit out those words again, he naturally moved her closer to his arms, promise, this answer was vague and unrealistic, but he believed it immediately, for some reason, He felt that she was different from Liu Xiaoyu, she would not lie to him, and she would definitely not harm him.

"sleep"

There was nothing for a night, and neither of them said a word again. After all, she didn't get the answer she wanted, and he didn't ask any more questions. Even if it was only a few days, they I also hope that it will be like this. If they have to face the scene of their opponents after going back, they have all thought, at least, they can try their best to protect each other...

She understood this cognition too late. If she had figured it out earlier, maybe she would continue to contact him as Liu Xiaoyu, but it was a step too late. She was already Wen Jiu, and she could only be Wen Jiu. nine...

In the early morning, they woke up with a strange scream, like the voice of an elephant, but sharper than the voice of an elephant. She sat up suddenly, and she had never slept so peacefully in a night without dreams, so As soon as the cry came, she instantly woke up. What was it?
The gray light in the sky has not yet fully awakened, and I glanced at the person who was also sitting upright. He is more alert and sharp than her. She can't see her surroundings clearly, and she can feel his eagle-like eyes under such grayness. His sharp eye-like eyes looked directly out of the hole, he did not let go of his arm around her, and even pulled her tighter into his arms, one night blind, one lame, no matter what, they couldn't save themselves or others, could All he had to do was stay in this natural cave to preserve his strength and wait and see what happened.

"Don't be afraid, don't go out, there are no big beasts that can break in here, let's wait for dawn."

"Um"

She nodded, she never doubted his words, they were close together, in this chilly morning, in this morning when the temperature dropped sharply, they snuggled together, trying to warm each other's body.

He was a little annoyed, never thought that one day he would be so weak, never thought that one day he would just stay in a cave and hide in order to save his life for a short time, how long has he not experienced such a day, 15 years , 10 years, he himself will not remember clearly.

Time passed very slowly, and they were no longer sleepy. The voices outside the cave came one after another, one after another, shrill and sharp, but Qiu Zeran, who had lived in the jungle for many years, still found something strange.

"You said earlier that you hadn't seen a single animal haunt the area?"

Qiu Zeran spoke suddenly, which made Liu Xiaoyu stunned, then nodded and said, "Yes", "Then the fish and shrimp you found were caught in the lake where we escaped from? Did you find any other strange things?"

"No, there are a lot of fish and shrimps by the lake, especially when I packed up the fish and cleaned them, piles of them surrounded me. I think it might be because the water quality here is good, so there are a lot of fish and shrimps."

As soon as she said this, even Liu Xiaoyu discovered the weirdness of what she said.His face turned pale for a moment, and he turned to look at him. He seemed to know what she was going to say, and immediately calmed her panic.

"The fish and shrimp are fine, don't worry, what I'm afraid of is that there is something wrong with that lake..."
