Rebirth Night Expedition Far River

After sleeping all night, the heat finally subsided, and I woke up refreshed in the morning.

Wen Jiang opened his eyes and sat up, touched his forehead, and was dazed for a while, then heard Xie Zheng's voice: "Are you awake? How do you feel? Are you still uncomfortable?"

"Brother Xie!" After being confused all night, but as if he hadn't seen him for several days, Wen Jiang said embarrassedly: "I caused you trouble yesterday."

Xie Zheng approached him, touched his forehead directly, his palm just covered the back of Wen Jiang's hand, he took it down and held it in his own palm, and said with a slight smile, "As long as you are fine."

Eh, eh?Eh eh eh? !

Why does it feel like I just had a fever, but it seems that the painting style is not right?

There must be something wrong with the way I wake up!

Wen Jiang closed his eyes, it must be!

"What's the matter? Are you feeling uncomfortable again?" Xie Zheng said with a smile, how could he not know what Wen Jiang was thinking, but Wen Jiang who was so stupid was really cute and ruthless, and it also made people very excited.

"Hey, I'm being stupid again." Wen Jiang said uncomfortably, and turned his head to look around: "Where is the old man?"

"Outside, I cooked porridge and eggs for you, do you want to eat?" Xie Zhengwen said: "My husband has his own pickles at home. I have tasted it. It is very refreshing and tastes good. It should suit your appetite."

Wen Jiang nodded, sweating all night, feeling a little exhausted, and his stomach was even more empty.Hearing that there are refreshing side dishes, he immediately swallowed his saliva and said with a smile: "Brother Xie, you said that, I think I can drink two bowls of porridge."

Xie Zheng caressed his face and said, "Seeing that you are energetic and able to eat, I feel relieved."

Wen Jiang laughed, took a big mouthful of porridge, held up the bowl and said, "Brother Xie, have you gone out to see this village?"

Xie Zheng picked up a chopstick of pickled vegetables for him, motioned him to eat it, and said: "Last night I was only focused on picking herbs, I just glanced at it casually, this village seems to have something famous, I went out to have a look again in the morning, it sure enough."

"Really what?" Wen Jiang's eyes lit up when he heard Xie Zheng say that he was famous, and he hurriedly asked, "Is there something weird in the village?" He rubbed his chin and pondered, "Could it be that there is an expert hermit in this village, There are still martial arts masters living in seclusion here, so it’s not like some devil sect leader is in trouble, oh yes, the real leader is in Huai’an, that’s, wow, is there some treasure hidden or something?!”

Xie Zheng laughed: "Nonsense, how can there be so many experts and treasures." He pondered: "I just think that there is something wrong with the people in this village, and they seem to be hiding something. Someone should have entered this house last night, maybe He didn’t leave this morning, but he doesn’t know where he is, at least he doesn’t feel at ease with us, and has been watching us secretly.”

"Last night?" Wen Jiang was stunned, propped his chin and recalled the next slap on his thigh and said: "Yes! Last night I vaguely heard the old man talking to someone again, the voice was very low, and I was in a daze again. , so I didn't hear it clearly, but I felt that it was a young man's voice, but I thought it was you who came back."

Xie Zheng shook his head: "When I came back, he had already left. I thought he was not far away from us, but there was only an old woman living in the house next door. I asked Mr. Li before, and he said that Aunt Liu had no relatives by her side for a long time. , and the young man you guessed should have lived there last night." Seeing Wen Jiang's worried face, he comforted him: "Forget it, at least he didn't do anything last night, at most he was just spying on us in secret. It’s almost ready, let’s set off for Huai’an and join Xiaoshan and the others later.”

Wen Jiang also nodded: "Brother Xie said that if we rush to investigate, it won't be good if it leads to any trouble."

Although there are strange things in this village, they did not threaten their safety. The so-called one more thing is worse than one less thing.

The two chatted casually for a few more words, and they were talking about going to Shen Bai's place when they heard old man Li walk in from the outside: "Hey, little brother, you're awake, that's great, you don't know how old your brother was last night. Worrying about you, I sat beside your bed all night without closing my eyes, fearing that something might happen to you, alas, our place is too poor, we don’t even have a doctor, even the nearest city of Huai’an has to go for hours.”

Wen Jiang said gratefully: "Last night, Uncle Lao took care of the boy when my brother was out looking for medicine."

Old man Li waved his hands again and again, his old face was a little uncomfortable and said: "Your brother hasn't been there for long, he was worried. I was a little afraid of what he would encounter in the forest. You know, our forest at night , will tell the children in the village not to run there, it’s not safe.”

Wen Jiang turned his head and stared at Xie Zheng when he heard the words, but because of the presence of outsiders, there was infinite emotion in his heart but he couldn't express it.

Xie Zheng shook his hand and smiled at him.

Wen Jiang lowered his head, surrounded Xie Zheng's palm with his other hand, and raised the corners of his lips.

Mr. Li looked at the two brothers in front of him, and seemed to feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell, so he just smiled and said, "I'll go out and have a look first, you guys for lunch—"

"Old man Li, we are leaving later." Xie Zheng said, "I have bothered you a lot, and now my younger brother is better. We still have friends waiting in Huai'an. I dare not bother you, old man."

"That's right, that's right. The ingot you gave me last night is enough for the old man to spend more than a year. I don't need this meal. Don't worry about it. I'll go now. Ready for you to go."

"Old man Li." Wen Jiang called him, and said with a gentle smile, "What my brother said was that we were supposed to set off this morning, but it was all because of my weak health and the wind that delayed our efforts for half a day. I had agreed with my friends to meet in Huai’an today, but now it’s a day late, if I stay longer, I’m afraid they will worry, you let us two brothers into the house without hesitation last night, and gave us a place to spend the night, already It's a great favor. Don't think it's worth it."

"This, this, well, since you still have something to do, I won't keep you here." Mr. Li said, "When you leave the village and head north along the path for about a quarter of an hour, you will see the road to Huai'an. The official way, and then you can go to Huai'an in another day."

"Thank you, old man, for letting me know." Xie Zheng cupped his hands in thanks.

Mr. Li waved his hand: "It's just a little effort."

Xie Zheng's eyes flickered, he looked at Wen Jiang, and both smiled.

Mr. Li was a little confused, scratched his head, and went out first.

Xie Zheng listened for a while, he should have gone out, so he said to Wen Jiang: "How?"

Wen Jiang shrugged: "He is speaking the truth, but he is a little entangled, and seems to want us to leave quickly."

Xie Zheng nodded: "Let's go to Huai'an first."

Wen Jiang nodded, and suddenly stood still.

"how?"

"I just felt like someone was staring at me."

Xie Zheng frowned, and for a moment, he embraced Wen Jiang in front of him, leaned into his ear and said: "Now there is no one here, pack up and leave."

"En." Wen Jiang rested his head on Xie Zheng's shoulder, secretly looking out of the window.

The spring breeze blew a little green on the branches, he raised his hand, put it on Xie Zheng's shoulder, and hugged him gently.
