He parked the car on the mountain road outside the highway, then opened the door, walked around the front of the car to the side where Xiaotian was sitting, and let her jump out of the car relying on his arms.
Looking at the dark woods in front of him, he held her little hand, feeling quite unbearable. He didn't know what dangers he would encounter on the road from here. Although he knew Ye Hen well, he couldn't guarantee that he could escape from his control.
However, if he could get out of city A, he decided to take her to his hometown to hide.
He came out when he was seven or eight years old, and he completely forgot the road there, but he still remembered the approximate location clearly.
Seeing the girl next to me jumping for joy like a bird, I simply didn’t know what would happen in the future, so I thought it would be safe to follow him.
For this trust, he will definitely take her out.
He took her hand and walked towards the forest.
************
"Pingzhi..." Leng Xiaotian held on to a rough pine tree next to him and gasped, "I can't walk anymore."
Pingzhi used the long knife he carried to clear the way ahead and cut down the tangled vines. When he heard her voice, he quickly put away the knife and walked over.
"Tired? Let's take a rest."
Her clothes were somewhat tattered due to many days of running around. Her beautiful curly hair was tied randomly on her head, revealing her smooth and white forehead. There were also a few minor scratches on her face, and her eyes were sunken in, as if she was suffering from extreme pain.
tired.
He suddenly felt pain in his heart. He was a grown man and had grown up in this kind of environment since he was a child. He was naturally not afraid of people with rough skin and thick flesh. However, she had been pampered since she was a child and had basically not suffered much. She has been able to stay with him until now.
It's not easy anymore.
He found a large flat stone. The stone was too cold and he was afraid that she would get cold, so he took off his shirt and spread it on it.
Leng Xiaotian sat on it, curled up his knees, looked at him and asked: "Pingzhi, how long do we have to go?"
She felt that she could no longer hold on any longer. They had been walking in this forest for four days and four nights. They were traveling during the day and sometimes slept in caves at night. Sometimes they could only sleep in haystacks. It was very cold at night.
He always took off his clothes and put them on for her, and then hugged her tightly with his thick chest.
He could tell that she had reached her limit, so he walked over and sat down next to her, and said comfortingly: "You can get out of this forest in one day's walking. If you can't walk anymore, I will carry you."
She nodded, as long as he was by her side, she could endure any hardship.
Pingzhi raised his head and glanced at the sky. There was a group of dark clouds in the distance. It looked like it was going to rain. He wanted to find a cave before the heavy rain came. If he fell ill in this deep mountain, with her condition
My body may not be able to support it.
"Come." Pingzhi squatted down in front of her and motioned for her to climb on his back.
"I can still walk." She knew that he was also a little exhausted and couldn't bear to trouble him anymore.
But he said stubbornly: "Come up."
Xiaotian knew his temper, so he had to climb on his back and put his arms around his neck.
He lifted her up by her buttocks, then stood up and strode forward.
While he was carrying her, he was cutting away the thorns with a knife. She lay on his back and could hear a slight gasp coming from his chest.
In fact, from the beginning of her escape to now, Xiaotian didn't know why. She felt that he was always aloof and polite to her. She thought it was something she didn't do well. She wanted to ask him but didn't dare to ask, for fear that he would say something.
The reason why I was sad, so I kept enduring it.
There was a salty coolness in the air, and a heavy rain was imminent.
"Pingzhi, look, there is a cave there." Xiaotian excitedly pointed to a hillside in the distance.
Pingzhi also saw it and immediately turned around and walked that way.
Although the cave is not big, it is quite clean. The ground is full of sand and there are not many stones.
Pingzhi put her down and went out to find some hay and firewood.
She also followed him enthusiastically, helping him hold firewood. Seeing her jumping up and down with joy, Pingzhi couldn't help but smile and shake her head. This girl regarded this as camping, and had no idea that danger could come at any time.
Arrive.
"Pingzhi, are these enough?" She put the firewood in the cave and wiped the sweat from her head.
"That's enough." Pingzhi squatted down and spread the hay into a thick mat in the cave. Xiaotian was also helping. Both of them were kneeling on the ground with their heads lowered, so they didn't see each other's expressions.
.
Xiaotian had a look of joy on his face, feeling like an ordinary young couple decorating their own small home, warm and happy.
Pingzhi, on the other hand, has a melancholy look on his face. He feels that he cannot bring her any happiness. He is a person living in darkness. He does not want to contaminate a clean person like her. Moreover, he is poor and has nothing.
No, she lives a wealthy life, how can she live a poor and miserable life with him.
"It's so comfortable." After the mat was laid out, Xiaotian lay on it happily and exclaimed.
She is really sleepy and tired now and just wants to have a good sleep.
"You go to sleep, I'll light the fire, otherwise the temperature in this cave will be too low." Pingzhi smiled at her, then sat there alone, sorting the dry firewood into a pile, and took out a lighter from his pocket to light the fire.
The firewood was a little damp and had some white smoke. He lowered his head and blew on it with his mouth.
Xiaotian was lying on the straw mat, pillowing her arms. Looking at his serious look at this time, a sweet smile couldn't help but appear on her face. She felt that she was so unreal now. She had never thought that there was such a thing.
One day she would fall in love with such a man, and she would never have imagined that she would flee to the end of the world with him, leaving her comfortable mansion, dazzling gold and silver jewelry, delicacies from all over the world, and her favorite design job...
Everything was unexpected, making her scared and excited, but more importantly, it was sweet.
She thought of the TV and novels she often watched. Those princesses and ladies in ancient times seemed to follow such a hero around the world, and then lived a happy and free life.
If he were by her side, she would have no regrets if she gave up her former glory and wealth.
Pingzhi didn't know what Xiaotian was thinking. He finally lit the fire, and it started to rain heavily outside. He sat by the fire, and the firelight illuminated his handsome face red. He was lost in thought for a while.
Yes, then he turned around and looked at the girl who had fallen asleep peacefully on the straw mat. When she fell asleep, the corners of her mouth were slightly upward, as if she was smiling.
He couldn't help but walked over and sat down next to her, stretching out his slender fingers to touch her white cheeks. Only when she was asleep could he dare to face her so calmly, but the fingers stopped.
It stayed in the air for a long time, but finally it didn't fall.
There was a thunder outside and the rain became heavier.
Xiaotian, who was sleeping, seemed to be frightened. His two little hands unconsciously hugged Pingzhi's arm, and he put his little face on it, finding a safe position for himself.
Pingzhi's eyes gradually became darker, and he almost uncontrollably lowered his head to find her lips.
