Ye Guilan was the first to run up and reach out to help the tightly wrapped man lying on the ground, but Ye He stopped him again.
"I'll do it, but you can't control the strength."
Ye Guilan quickly retracted her little hand and watched her father step forward. Instead of touching him directly with his hands, his spiritual energy moved first and circled the man who was lying there without opening his eyes.
Compared with last time, Ye He was more cautious this time, as if his body was very fragile.
In fact, this was exactly the case. Although the preserved spiritual seeds were intact, the quality of the spiritual energy was too poor. Ye He carefully lifted his body and placed it on the soft bed.
If he hadn't added the floating dragon scale armor powder, I'm afraid... the body would fall apart as soon as he touched it.
"Xiao Guilan, your armor can come in handy."
Xuanhui Wuyou reminded, and Ye Guilan quickly took it out. Before Ye He could ask what it was, after the armor came into contact with the body, it disappeared in a flash like light and shadow.
"What's this?"
"The armor is made of floating dragon scales. Doesn't he need this in his condition?"
Xuan Hui's worry-free voice came as he lowered his head and continued forging, "If this body is not protected, I'm afraid something will go wrong no matter how careful you are."
Ye He was stunned for a moment, these words...are indeed on point.
The old father reached out and touched his daughter's head. Only then did he finally let out a sigh of relief. The man on the bed was lying there with a peaceful expression, as if he was asleep.
"Uncle Lieyang, does he look like this?"
Ye Guilan stood by the bed, looking back and forth between the man and his father. They were really brothers, it seemed.
Ye He stood there noncommittal, his eyes resting on the person lying on the bed, and did not move away for a long time.
"I don't even remember what he looks like."
Ye He murmured and sat down, "This is also the first time for me to really see what he looks like."
After Ye He finished speaking, he suddenly laughed.
"Even though we haven't seen each other for so long, even though his appearance has long been blurred, when I see him now, I don't feel much strange, as if... I met him yesterday."
Speaking of this, Ye He's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Ye Guilan felt sad when she heard this. For the Ye family, which was riddled with holes, this was a child that was finally recovered after such a long and turbulent years.
Raising his head, Ye Guilan held back the tears in his eyes, "Dad, it's time to tell grandpa."
Ye He sighed, "Ah, it's time for my dad to come over."
The news was handed over immediately, and while waiting for Ye Tianming to come over, the father and daughter stayed by the bed, one and the other without speaking, just looking at the person lying on the bed silently.
Xuanhui Wuyou continued to forge beside him, raising his eyes to look at them from time to time. Are they not tired after watching them for so long?
It only took half a day for Ye Tianming to arrive.
After hearing the news, Ye Tianming put down everything at hand, no matter how important it was.
He came at a lightning speed and stopped in front of Fang Chengqiu's courtyard gate.
The old man tensed his body, looked at the closed courtyard door in front of him, and suddenly stopped.
After waiting for a long time, he didn't open the door.
He clenched and unclenched the hand at his side, loosened and tightened it, and repeated it until his palms were covered with sweat, and Ye Tianming took another deep breath before pushing the door open.
The moment he put his fingers on the courtyard door, just as he was about to exert force, the door was opened from the inside.
The old man stumbled and almost fell forward facelessly.
"Grandpa, you are here."
It was Ye Guilan who opened the door. She looked at Ye Tianming with red eyes and smiled, "Please keep your voice down, Uncle Lieyang hasn't woken up yet."
Ye Tianming's breath tightened, and his heart couldn't help but beat a few times when he heard the name. He nodded and walked in silently.
But the old man didn't expect that there was another person in the yard.
Xuanhui Wuyou smiled and nodded when he saw Ye Tianming. Ye Tianming saw the forging tool in his hand and looked like he had seen a ghost.
"Xiao Guilan, this is..."
Ye Tianming lowered his voice, and Ye Guilan looked back, "Uncle is helping me make something."
Hearing this, Ye Tianming's temples began to beat wildly, and a vein on his forehead bulged out due to excessive tension.
The head of the Xuanhui clan makes something for his granddaughter...?
Even if the two families have an engagement, will this... bring the relationship closer too quickly?
Ye He sat on the edge of the bed and didn't even bother to get up. He only gave him a "here you come" look. The old man automatically ignored this traitor and focused his heart and eyes on the person lying on the bed.
The man on the bed has his eyes closed and his breathing is steady. His skin is no longer too pale as it was at first. It has a normal color, and even a little rosiness can be seen on his cheeks.
Ye Tianming looked at the exposed facial features, which perfectly matched the face in his memory.
The child still looked like a child when he disappeared, but Ye Tianming never forgot his appearance.
Day after day, year after year, he pictured in his mind how his children would grow up.
The old man just looked at it without blinking, until tears began to well up.
It was the same, exactly the same as the face he thought of.
Ye He watched silently until he saw the tears shining in Ye Tianming's eyes, and silently looked away.
"It's hard, are you okay?"
When Ye Tianming spoke, he suppressed his emotions and turned to look at Ye He. Ye He's body trembled, obviously he didn't expect that he would care about him.
"I'm fine."
In a very low and muffled voice, Ye Tianming hummed, and then stared in silence for a while, "How long will it take for Lieyang to wake up?"
"I don't know, the quality of this body is not good. You have to plan to recuperate it for a long time." Ye He paused for a while after saying, "Don't rush him to do things."
Ye Tianming looked at Ye He with a complicated expression. He wanted to say something but swallowed it back, "I'll guard him. You guys go and have a good rest."
"Dad, go and rest. Grandpa and I will stay here first."
Ye Guilan quickly spoke in a low voice, and Ye He looked at the person lying on the bed, "I'm not tired."
None of the three people could convince anyone, so Ye Tianming simply joined in.
Xuanhui Wuyou raised his head and looked at the three wooden stakes beside the bed, and couldn't help but raise his lips. He couldn't find such three interesting people in his family.
A week has passed and the person on the bed has not shown any sign of opening his eyes.
The three of them, grandfather and grandson, stayed like this and no one left.
Xuanhui Wuyou finished making the armor and protective plates a day ago, and left without saying anything else. He had other things to do and did not plan to join the ranks of wooden piles.
Ye He frowned, it had been so many days, no matter how weak he was, he should have woken up.
Ye Tianming was waiting anxiously and did not dare to ask more questions or do more, so he could only suppress his temper and continue to wait.
Ye Guilan would talk to the old man from time to time to relieve his nervousness and anxiety.
Ye He looked at it for a while, then stood up and walked over. Ye Tianming nervously wanted to stand up too, but Ye He gave him a look that said don't come over.
The man on the bed was lying there. Ye He came to the bed and looked down for a while, his eyebrows moving.
After a while, Ye He said in a low voice, "He's going to wake up."
Boom.
The chair he was sitting on was carried away by Ye Tianming. The old man strode over excitedly and squeezed Ye He out.
Ye Tianming pursed his lips and locked his eyes tightly on that face. His Adam's apple moved a few times and he couldn't help but tighten his fingers.
The man who had not woken up for many days slowly opened his eyes. His dark eyes returned to clarity after a brief period of confusion. He rolled his eyes and finally settled on Ye Tianming.
"...the blazing sun."
Ye Tianming's voice was hoarse and trembling uncontrollably. He reached out to help his son on the bed, but he gently pushed him away.
"Who...are you?"
The man on the bed sat up, the wariness and unfamiliarity in his eyes like a sword, piercing the old man's heart.
It hurts and is harsh.
"Uncle Lieyang?!"
Ye Guilan's eyes widened after hearing this, and she looked at her father anxiously. Ye He stood there with an expression that he couldn't distinguish between good and bad.
Ye Tianming frowned, obviously unable to accept that his son, who had finally come back, had lost his memory. The man who woke up on the bed also frowned.
"Who are you anyway?"
The old man's body shook, "It doesn't matter, just come back, just come back..."
"Uncle Lieyang, do you remember who you are?"
Ye Guilan rushed over with a very urgent tone. The man sitting there turned his eyes to her, and the look in his eyes stunned Ye Guilan.
The old man, who was secretly feeling sad next to him, glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw someone's eyes, and he was enlightened.
The old man raised his hand and slapped it hard.
Snap!
A hard bang hit the head of someone who woke up on the bed.
"ah!"
Someone covered his head and shouted, "I just woke up! Do you really want to make me lose my memory with such force!"
Ye Tianming raised his hand again, his eyes filled with anger and joy, a mixture of sadness and joy.
Someone jumped off the bed, looking so weak that he couldn't wake up. He took a quick step to Ye He's side and rubbed his grinning mouth with his hand.
"Brother, did you know this would happen a long time ago?"
Ye He snorted, and Ye Tianming looked at Ye He with a sudden realization. The old man raised his arm, covering his chest with his hand and pointed at the two brothers standing together.
"You two are traitors... you two are traitors!"
Bang.
After saying this, Ye Tianming leaned back.
Neither of the two brothers standing there came over to offer a hand. Instead, they looked at each other and laughed tacitly.
Only Ye Guilan dodged and rushed over, "Grandpa! Grandpa!"
Ye Tianming, who originally wanted to pretend to faint, was really knocked out this time.
