Quick Wear: Welcome to the Crazy Scene

"Tell me, how did this kid offend Lord Kong?" A big bearded man threw his bag onto the camel and rubbed his hands.

"Keep your voice down." A companion said, "How can a runner like you know the intricacies of those important people?"

"Yes, I might as well hope to buy more tea from this batch so that I can save up a dowry for my daughter."

"Hahahaha!"

Traveling merchants are so heroic, but the wind and sand also rub their temples.

"One hundred taels." Three words suddenly appeared in the wind and then drifted away.

Camel bells rang out as the caravan continued its journey westward. A shortage of personnel was perfectly normal.

……

His back was already covered with a thin layer of yellow sand. If he lay there any longer, he would probably be buried alive.

Fortunately, the man lying dead in the dirt raised his head. He began coughing violently, as if he was going to cough out his lungs.

Stunned, confused, and incredulous, he pinched his elbow and realized that everything in front of him was not an illusion.

The people who had called him a brother at night and looked forward to the future with him abandoned him in the wilderness the next day and took away all the food and money he had with him.

This is to let him die in the wilderness.

It turns out that you can't trust anyone.

Xiao Jiangran cursed himself in his heart.

One by one, they are all liars.

He looked up at the sky and tried hard to determine the direction with the help of the sun. No matter what, he had to find a place to shelter now.

The reddish-brown rocks were exposed on the ground, leaving no traces when walking through them. Instead, the soles of the feet were rubbed to the point of bleeding and burning with pain.

Xiao Jiangran clenched the pendant on his chest, squatted down, and carefully sensed the moisture in the soil.

The sun was blocked by clouds at some point, which relieved the heat but also made it impossible to tell the direction.

He was now walking according to his intuition, squatting down from time to time, touching the soil with his fingertips, trying to find water sources based on the soil.

Another wooden pole got stuck in the crack of the rock and broke in two. He threw it away, feeling somewhat helpless.

Without water or food, he temporarily didn't have the strength to walk.

I found a towering rock and sat down with my back against it.

He began to review why he ended up in this situation.

He almost instantly thought of the big man's gentle expression when he talked about his daughter, and smiled happily beside the campfire: "My daughter will be a big girl by next spring."

"Brother, you promised to introduce me to a wife!"

"I just hope my mother can stay healthy. She is already 70 years old!"

"Hehe, you guys definitely can't believe it, I'm a dad."

Xiao Jiangran was the most ordinary passer-by in their lives, but one night, he witnessed their most heartwarming moments from the past. Those moments brought people closer together.

He had nothing worth recalling, so he just held the kettle and raised it as they raised their glasses.

"I wish you all the best, and I also wish me all the best." Xiao Jiangran said truthfully.

The atmosphere suddenly fell into silence, and it was the big man who spoke at the beginning who spoke again: "It's getting late, it's better to go to bed early so that you can hurry on your journey."

At that time, Xiao Jiangran just thought that he had scared them, but now he thinks that he must have been feeling guilty.

Unfortunately, the bonfire that night was too warm, giving him the illusion of being close to her.

Clang, thunder sounded in the sky, and dark clouds had gathered overhead without anyone noticing.

Rain is a good thing, but getting wet in the rain may put you at risk of getting sick.

Xiao Jiangran took off his outer robe, put it on his head, and hurriedly looked for a place to shelter from the rain.

Fortunately, there was a cave not far away.

When did the cave appear?

Why did he realize it only now?

But Xiao Jiangran didn't have time to think more. In any case, the situation would not get worse than it was now, so he hurriedly ran towards the cave.

The bonfire at the entrance of the cave was still warm.

And in the cave, there was a familiar little liar sitting with his chin propped up, watching him run in like a drowned rat.

Oh, now you can’t call him a liar, after all, they really met.

"Why, brother doesn't dare to come in?"

Shen Jin smiled and waved the barbecue in his hand.

He stopped at the cave entrance, his movements a little stiff, mainly because he was not in good shape.

Originally, his body was covered with yellow sand because of walking forward, and now it was mixed with mud and water after being hit by the rain.

Clammy, itchy, and messy.

He instinctively wanted to escape and rushed into the rain to wash himself clean.

But when Shen Jin asked, his uneasy heart eased: "I'm worried about dirtying your cave."

Well, with her ability, it's normal for her to smash out a cave or something.

Shen Jin asked in return, "Then how do you know, brother, that this cave isn't there because of you?"

If Xiao Jiangran hadn't been here, she wouldn't have come to this place. She had been looking for food for a long time, but in the end she could only treat him to grilled scorpions.

shame.

Xiao Jiangran sat opposite Shen Jin.

He stared at the bonfire, took the scorpion she handed him in a trance, closed his eyes and bit it randomly, his mind full of "it's here because of me", and he felt inexplicably honored.

Shen Jin admired the way he struggled to eat the insects and collected the sugar beans with great pleasure.

This time, I discovered a new flavor. It's slightly sweet and bitter, a little lighter than chocolate, but still delicious!

He finished eating three scorpions and declined the fourth one offered by Shen Jin before ending his meal tonight.

Shen Jin felt a little sorry and threw the extra scorpion into the fire. With a snap, sparks flew out.

Xiao Jiangran asked: "Why are you here?"

Shen Jin: "I'm begging here."

……

This excuse is really lame.

But Xiao Jiangran did not expose it. Perhaps she really had a very magical way of practicing.

"Have you cried?"

Shen Jin pointed at his slightly red eyes, unable to tell whether he was happy or angry.

"I was deceived."

In fact, she wasn't crying, she was just blinded by the wind, sand and rain. But when she asked, she really felt a little aggrieved.

He touched his eye sockets in some confusion. Why did he feel aggrieved when he sat here?

It was obviously his own mistake because he was too naive.

Shen Jin: "So stupid."

Xiao Jiangran silently fanned the flames, feeling a chill in his heart.

He admitted that he was looking forward to Shen Jin's answer, so much so that he could hardly bear hearing these three words.

If you were here, maybe things would be different.

He didn't say this, but nodded: "Yeah, I'm stupid."

The atmosphere was suddenly silent.

Shen Jin frowned, a little distressed.

It shouldn't be like this.

With her ability to perceive emotions, and Xiao Jiangran being her mission target, he should at least get more reasonable comfort from her.

But Xiao Jiangran was a bit special. Before she could sense his emotions, they were first transformed into sugar balls and eaten...

Food naturally cannot reflect emotions, which gave people the illusion that Shen Jin suddenly had "extremely low emotional intelligence."

Anyway, apologize first.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have called you stupid."

"You are a very smart person."

Xiao Jiangran became even more silent.

Apologies seemed to have no effect, so the only option was to avoid him. So Shen Jin forcefully changed the subject: "Um...are you lost?"

"Let me take you away."

"Okay, thank you."

Shen Jin smiled and said, "Then let's go now!"

Xiao Jiangran pointed outside. It was not only dark but also raining heavily. "It's not suitable now."

He smiled and said solemnly: "It is my great honor to be able to wait for you again."
