"Mom, walk slower!"

I don’t know how many times I have repeated this sentence. Once the wounds on my body move too fast, there is a tearing feeling, which brings me fear again and again, but my mother’s pace never slows down, so I can only grit my teeth.

Hold on, I don’t know how big this damn mountain range is, and the surrounding environment has not changed at all after walking for four or five days.

"Ah!" I suddenly shouted and squatted on the ground, my forehead tightly wrinkled.

Just now, my leg accidentally hit an extending branch, which happened to be the area covered by scab. I carefully rolled up a corner of my clothes to expose the wound. The palm-sized scab had been completely loosened, and I lifted it gently with my hand.

It's a scene of flesh and blood being separated.

"What's wrong?"

My mother came over, took a look at my wound, and asked, "Why are you so careless? Can you still walk?"

She actually just glanced at the wound the size of a palm. I was a little angry. If that was the case, let's go. I wouldn't die anyway!

I stood up again, ran a few steps and walked in front of her. I glanced at the wound from time to time. Although it had scabbed before, the flesh inside had not grown back yet, and a lot of blood flowed out due to the force. I initially

I stopped and wiped it casually, but then I just ignored it. The blood dripped onto my feet, and every step I took was stained with blood.

"Double Mystery!"

Suddenly my mother's voice came from behind me. I felt as if I had been wronged. My steps were getting faster and faster, but her voice was getting closer and closer. Just when I was about to run to distance myself, my mother hugged me from behind.

He asked me, then leaned down and rolled up my clothes to reveal the wound I had just made, and then I saw my mother’s frown.

"You've shed so much blood, don't leave."

Hearing this, I showed an unhappy expression and said coldly: "You just asked me if I could still leave, and now you're telling me not to leave."

My mother smiled slightly, stood up and touched my head, "I'm sorry Shuangxuan, I didn't see you bleeding just now, so I thought you were trying to show off your temper by trying to get me to carry you."

I seemed to have put down the scab when she came over before. It was normal not to see it. I unknowingly used my own opinion to speculate on the results my mother saw, and took it for granted that it was correct. I didn't say anything anymore.

, walked to the side silently, and found a protruding tree root to sit down.

My mother also came over. She was not next to me. Instead, she found another rock protruding from the ground and sat down. Then she looked at the location of my wound and said, "How about I lick it for you?"

"No need." I shook my head immediately. It wasn't her fault, it was my own carelessness and impulsiveness, and a human body wouldn't get better after being licked.

We sat here for an hour, and when I saw that the wound was no longer bleeding, I got up and continued to move forward, but this time the speed was much slower, and my mother followed me without saying anything.

We walked like this one after the other until it got dark without saying a word. I wasn't angry, but I wasn't sure whether my mother was. Along the way, I was even blaming myself for why no beast passed by or ran out, so she would

Protect me.

"Shuangxuan, you can rest now. We'll leave tomorrow."

My mother's voice came from behind, just like before, no change could be heard.

"oh."

I answered in a low voice, and then looked around for dead wood that could be burned. I had not seen any rain since I came out of the ancient city, so I quickly found enough dead wood. I turned around and looked in the direction of my mother from a distance, but I was slow to step forward.

I didn't move. I didn't know what I was hesitating about, but it just felt very uncomfortable.

When I dragged the long branches back to my mother, she had already lit a fire. I walked over and put the firewood aside, and then squatted down beside her silently.

"Are you still angry with me?" Mother said suddenly. She took out the remaining piece of barbecue and placed it on the prepared stones. There was a crackling sound immediately.

It is difficult to heat the roasted meat, so she put the stones into the fire in advance, and then took them out and put the meat on top after the stones were hot. This method was her idea.

I remember the first time I was stupid enough to grab it with my hands. If I couldn’t catch it with my right hand, I would let go of my left hand. If my left hand couldn’t handle it, I would throw my right hand away...

For the last ten days or so, I couldn't eat with my hands, so my mother fed me one bite at a time. Two animals, one road, and walking for a long time was inevitably boring, but those things were deeply remembered.

"I'll give it to you. I'm covered in scabs. If you don't feel pain, I'm still heartbroken."

My mother's hesitant words made my blood boil like thunder. I didn't know what to do for a moment. I took the food with a blushing face and lowered my head, for fear that she would see it.

"I'm not angry." After saying these words, I should have been completely relieved, but for some reason, the temperature on my body rose rapidly. Even if there was no fire, I probably wouldn't feel the slightest bit of cold.

I said the words just now very quietly, and I don't know if she heard it, but I didn't have time to care about it. I hurriedly fell asleep after eating the food.

The next day, I woke up from my mother's arms.

She hadn't woken up yet, which was a rare thing. I tried my best not to make any movement, closed my eyes again, and felt every breath she took.

…

At three o'clock in the morning, my mother slowly opened her eyes, and then she heard only one sound.

"ah--"

"over slept!"

My mother's arms were very warm, so I fell asleep again. I was really startled by her voice and almost fell into the embers. I turned around and shouted: "You scared me!"

My mother smiled bitterly, got up and tidied up a few times, then took my hand and strode forward, "I may have to walk faster today, not like yesterday. If you feel uncomfortable in any way, just tell me and I will carry you."

.”

I'm not that fragile, I already have scabs, and one night is enough to stay together, but it's like this every time, no fuss.

"What are you doing in such a hurry?" I followed her closely. Normally, nothing would happen in human territory. Even if I overslept occasionally, it was not uncommon. But after all, I had been comatose for two years. With her

If you have a bad temper, you might actually cause some trouble.

I can only hope that it won't be too much trouble, otherwise I will have to run for my life again. My body really wants to stabilize for some time.

"Actually, it's not a big deal..."

Although she said that, her steps were getting faster and faster. I struggled to keep up, and then a sudden pain came on my back, and it was a damn branch again!

There are a lot of wounds on my back, most of them caused by old illnesses from a long time ago. The pain is several times stronger than yesterday.

Just when I was about to fall, a hand held me tightly. It was my mother who had returned. She squatted in front of me and said softly: "We met again? I'll carry you."

Mother's back is always the place I long for most. I didn't say anything, but I still leaned on it gently. After she carried me on her back, my mother's pace was obviously much slower, even worse than yesterday.

"Let me down. You go and do your own business first. I'll walk slowly behind you. If you finish your work and I haven't arrived yet, come back to me."

"Will you come back to collect the body for you?" my mother said. Of course I was very angry, so I turned my head and ignored her. When she saw this, she laughed out loud and looked helpless:

"The boy you rescued two years ago has been practicing in the mountains. He came to see you once on this day a few months ago. I don't know how long it will take for you to wake up, so he made an appointment with me at this time.

He said that he must see you wake up before he can practice with peace of mind. I originally calculated the time to come, but ended up oversleeping. He didn't know that you were awake, so he would definitely go to the previous place. Wouldn't it cause more trouble then?

"

I didn’t know what to say at that moment, so from the beginning I just stayed as promised for a few more days, right? I might even lose a few pieces of my scabs in those days, but it wouldn’t be like this, really.

It's asking for trouble.

This kind of thing is within my tolerance. The worst-case scenario is that I will waste ten days. I am really looking forward to that boy.

"What does he look like now?" I turned my head back.

"He has changed a lot. He is now a famous little strong man. He has been alone in this mountain range for the past few months. You would definitely not be able to do it," said the mother.

I have survived in places that are much more dangerous than this in the orc territory. As long as I am careful, it is not difficult to survive in such a place. Fortunately, she is my mother. Who hunts more often?

Not sure?

I was too lazy to argue with her and just enjoyed riding on her back. After walking like this for a long time, a figure slowly walked over in front of me. My mother stopped. I knew it was this human being. I asked my mother to put me down, but I didn't wait.

When I tried to stand on the ground, I realized that my body couldn't even blink.

"Brother Shuangxuan, are you okay?"

I didn't fall down. A pair of white-looking hands were on my shoulders. They were obviously so small, but they seemed to have inexhaustible strength.

"The changes are so big!"

Two years ago she was a little shorter than me, but now she is a full head taller than me, and her face loses its childlike look.

After seeing my surprised expression, he closed his eyes slightly, and then revealed the aura covering his whole body. This aura gave me the feeling that I could step into a higher level at any time.

“It’s awesome!”

I thought about it for a long time and only said these few words. I was really happy for him. Of course, I was also a little disappointed in my heart. Cultivation is the common expectation of all living things, but there are lives that cannot practice it. My mother and I are among them.

one.

"I'm not powerful enough, far behind Brother Shuangxuan." He helped me sit down next to a tree, and he sat next to me and continued: "You face the black-striped giant python as a human, until

Even if I fight with my body to pieces, I will probably never achieve it."

It's too early to say forever. My mother once said something similar to me.

"You are so powerful when you are only seven years old. Those uncles with messy hair and beards are not as powerful as you. You will become even more powerful, maybe even more powerful than the Jushi level."

I was silent for a moment, and then continued: "Just like me, I know that I can't practice, and I often ask my mother why she should pay attention to the world that does not belong to us, but in fact, I am eager to practice. After entering the human territory, I have no idea about practice.

The more I understand, the greater the desire in my heart. Even if I really can never practice, my ultimate belief in anything related to practice must be that I want to practice until it is shattered."

I turned my head and glanced at my mother. I understood many things and tried my best to do them, but I couldn't see through this fool. Every step I took towards her was extremely difficult.

"I'm going hunting. I'll rest here for the night."

"Auntie, let me help you."

"No, let's talk."

My mother left on purpose again, just like two years ago, and left this matter completely in my hands.

"What does Brother Shuangxuan mean by destruction?"

I looked at the direction where my mother disappeared, not knowing what to say. After hesitating again and again, I slowly said, "I'm probably walking a path. If I still can't practice when this path reaches the end, it means it's broken. Otherwise, even if

Even if I die a hundred times and a thousand times, I will never give up this belief."

I know this sounds like a joke. After all, you only live once. If I heard this in the past, I would definitely sneer at it. It doesn't matter. The choice is yours.

He was silent for a long time, stood up and looked at the sky quietly.

"I'm not as good as Brother Shuangxuan, and dying a thousand times is unthinkable to me. I have one life, and now I'm betting on it. No matter what happens, I will persevere until I die!
