don't go near that tree

Wu Chun wanted to stay by Xu Shiyao's side all night tonight, and this idea suddenly sprouted in his mind.

So when Xu Shiyao asked the phrase "Should you go back", Wu Chun's first thought in his heart was that he didn't want to go back, but if he didn't go back, grandpa would definitely be worried.

Although my grandfather didn't say anything during this time, Wu Chun could see his worries and concerns.

At the beginning, my mother was the only girl in this mountain village who passed the exam and passed the mountain. Grandpa was very proud. Even though he was nostalgic for this place, he did not follow his children to the city to live a better life.

But now Wu Chun is going back to this place.

After all, how many people dream of going out of this place and heading for a better world.

It's just that grandpa has never been the kind of person who would interfere with his children's decisions. He prefers to let his children make their own way, and he also believes that as long as there is a way, it will definitely work out.

So no matter how many worries he has in his heart, he still chooses to keep them in his heart.

And this kind of worry, sometimes, Wu Chun can't do anything about it.

Because of some things, no one can predict the result before it ends. As long as the result cannot be predicted, it will inevitably lead to some concerns and worries.

If Wu Chun doesn't go back tonight, grandpa will definitely sit at home and wait for him, and even run up the ten-mile mountain by himself.

So Wu Chun had to go back.

It's just that he didn't know if he could persuade his grandfather to let him spend the night in Shili Mountain, so he couldn't tell Xu Shiyao in advance.

Don't promise things that cannot be guaranteed.

On the way back, Wu Chun knew that Xu Shiyao had been following behind him, so he plunged into the house and quickly expressed his request to the grandfather.

"Grandpa, I'm leaving tomorrow. Can I go to Shili Mountain tonight?"

Grandpa was taken aback for a moment, then asked after thinking for a while, "Because of that child?"

Wu Chun nodded, and comforted, "Don't worry, Grandpa, he will protect me."

Even though Wu Chun said that, Grandpa still seemed a little worried, and he asked again, "Can he really protect you? No matter when?"

Wu Chun was taken aback for a moment, always feeling that Grandpa's words were a bit strange, but he didn't take it to heart, he smiled lightly, and said to Grandpa with absolute certainty, "He can."

It didn't take long for Wu Chun to turn off the lights in the house, and ran out, and then saw the familiar white figure floating in the night some distance in front of the yard.

Wu Chun trotted forward, and before he had time to rush into the opponent's arms, the opponent had already spotted him.

"Take me back?" Wu Chun opened his arms and said coquettishly to Xu Shiyao, "Go back to Shili Mountain?"

Perhaps Xu Shiyao felt a little sudden, stared at Wu Chun for a while, and then asked, "Is it okay?"

Wu Chun shook the coat on his body, said with a smile, "This is my grandfather's to keep me warm, besides, I have come out, do you think it is okay?"

As soon as Wu Chun finished speaking, he felt that he was suddenly picked up by the waist.After realizing what happened, he hurriedly patted Xu Shiyao.

"Put me down quickly." Wu Chun looked around anxiously while talking.

Just in case some unlucky guy came out for a stroll at night, they couldn't see Xu Shiyao, they could only see Wu Chun floating in mid-air.

Anyone who sees this scene will probably be scared to death.

But Xu Shiyao asked again with a puzzled expression, "What's wrong?"

"You're going to scare to death the people who come out at night!" Wu Chun said dumbfounded.

No wonder people always say that if you go out in the middle of the night, you will encounter ghosts.

In the eyes of others, Wu Chun was floating in mid-air.

"Someone will still come out at night, and they won't be able to see you." Wu Chun whispered again.

After Wu Chun finished speaking, Xu Shiyao was stunned, and the light that had just lit up in his eyes was gradually mixed with a trace of disappointment.

"it is good."

He said with some disappointment, and put Wu Chun down.

Seeing him like this, Wu Chun felt a little uncomfortable, but he still took a deep breath and forced a smile towards Xu Shiyao.

"Xu Shiyao." Wu Chun called him softly, and when he looked over, Wu Chun stretched out his hand to Xu Shiyao.

Seeing the doubt in Xu Shi's dazzling eyes, Wu Chun smiled and said, "Hold hands." Wu Chun then added, "Even if we meet someone, we don't have to be afraid."

Xu Shiyao was startled, then the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, he stretched out his hand, and tightly clasped the fingers of Wu Chun's extended hand.

The moonlight is bright enough to illuminate the way back to Shili Mountain.

The moonlight shone on Wu Chun, casting shadows on the road.

On the small road leading to Shili Mountain, there was only Wu Chun's shadow. Reflected on the road, he looked like a lone traveler at night, with one hand in a strange posture.

Wu Chun smiled and turned to look at Xu Shiyao. At this time, Xu Shiyao also happened to look over.

It's just that at that moment, Wu Chun saw that the spirit in Xu Shiyao's eyes seemed to be temporarily taken away, and then reinjected in an instant.

It's midnight...

Wu Chun's grip on Xu Shiyao's hands suddenly became tighter, and he looked at Xu Shiyao eagerly.

"Do you know me?" Wu Chun asked.

Xu Shiyao was stunned for a moment, and just as he raised his hand, Wu Chun grabbed it.

Wu Chun naturally knew what he was going to do, he wanted to find out the bark, as long as he saw the things recorded on it, he would "remember" himself.

The bark must be seen, but not now.

Wu Chun clasped Xu Shiyao's hands together, and he pulled Xu Shiyao to stand opposite him.

Wu Chun looked at Xu Shiyao with tenderness in his eyes.

"Your name is Xu Shiyao." Wu Chun said with a smile, "My name is Wu Chun." As he spoke, he paused for a while, and when he spoke again, his tone became extremely affectionate.

"We are a couple who are different from all couples in the world, but we have one thing in common. You said that you want to spend the rest of your life with me."

After Wu Chun finished speaking, he let go of Xu Shiyao's hand.

Even though Xu Shiyao's hand had been freed temporarily, his eyes still scrutinized Wu Chun's face for a long time. Finally, he waved his hand, and tree barks appeared in front of them.

Those barks seemed to have been ordered in advance, and they were arranged together in the order they knew each other.

Wu Chun was still holding Xu Shiyao's hand tightly with one hand, and he stood with him, quietly reading the contents on the bark with him.

It's just that Xu Shiyao looked at these things much faster than Wu Chun imagined.

When Wu Chun saw a third and was moved by the content recorded on the bark, a sudden force struck him and embraced him in a slightly cool embrace.

Before Wu Chun could react, Xu Shiyao whispered in his ear, "You are Wu Chun, and I am Xu Shiyao."

"Correct."

It is no exaggeration to say that Wu Chun's feeling at that moment was like teaching a child how to read, but the fact moved him even more than he imagined. After Xu Shiyao just said that sentence, Wu Chun just thought After saying something, Xu Shiyao whispered in his ear again, "Wu Chun, Xu Shiyao likes you very much."

……

Wu Chun spent the night outside for the first time.

Xu Shi was tired all morning during the day, and he experienced such a big mood swing just now. Now that his mood gradually calmed down, he began to feel drowsy.

Wu Chun was carried to the pine branch by Xu Shiyao, leaning against his arms, his upper and lower eyelids began to fight.

can not sleep!

Wu Chun pinched his face hard, trying to wake himself up.

"Sleep if you're sleepy?" Xu Shiyao's voice came from above his head.

"Don't sleep." Wu Chun said while yawning. He turned to face Xu Shiyao, and was about to take off his coat when Xu Shiyao stopped him.

"Cold." The other party said lightly.

Wu Chun blinked his eyelids, and ignored Xu Shiyao's words. He thought that if the temperature around him was cooler, he might not be so sleepy.

It's just that he didn't expect that just as he took off a sleeve, Xu Shiyao grabbed his right arm and stuffed it back.

"Are you going to get sick?" Xu Shiyao's tone was a little doting, but also a little self-blaming.

However, Wu Chun was momentarily taken aback by his words.

It stands to reason that Xu Shiyao, who is now after the restart, has a half-familiar and half-familiar impression of Wu Chun himself, so how could he know such details.

Besides, Wu Chun never told Xu Shiyao that as the summer gradually passed, the colder temperature would make him sick.

"How did you know I was going to be sick?"

As soon as Wu Chun finished speaking, a piece of tree bark appeared in front of him. Wu Chun looked carefully at the content on it, and saw that the title was impressively written - Precautions for being with Wu Chun.

And the first one at the bottom is - when the grass on the ground starts to turn yellow and wither, Wu Chun no longer likes the cold. If the other party is not wearing thick clothes, don't get close to him, otherwise he will get sick.

Wu Chun suddenly remembered what he said to Xu Shiyao unintentionally - no matter how cold it is, I will hug you even if I wear ten cotton-padded jackets and hug a stove.

The other party obviously also wrote down that sentence.

Wu Chun glanced at the ground. The grass is not yet withered and yellow, but the corn stalks and leaves in a few cornfields near Shili Mountain are starting to wither and turn yellow.

In Xu Shiyao's world, there is no concept of the four seasons of the year. His body temperature has always been the same. He can't feel the heat or cold around him.

Fortunately, he can see it.

Probably Xu Shiyao figured it out by himself. As the life of some plants began to weaken, Wu Chun gradually became unable to bear too much coolness, so Xu Shiyao came to this conclusion and wrote it down.

The bark is not limited to these contents, it even includes some small habits of Wu Chun's daily life.Xu Shiyao recorded them all.

"When did you write this?" Wu Chun stared at the bark and asked with a smile, "We've only just been together, how could you have time to write this?"

"I wrote it before." Xu Shiyao replied.

"Before? When was it before?"

After Wu Chun asked, he felt that he was talking nonsense, how could he remember when he wrote these things.

But looking at it, it should have been written some time ago. Wu Chun just felt helpless and regretful at the moment. He really wanted to ask Xu Shiyao why he wrote this in the first place, but the other party probably couldn't remember what kind of mentality he was at that time.

Wu Chun leaned on Xu Shiyao's shoulder and sighed slowly.

"Tell me next time you write something." Wu Chun said.

Even if Xu Shiyao couldn't remember, Wu Chun would still write down his specific state of mind at a certain moment for him.

"Yes." Xu Shiyao replied softly, "But..."

"But what?" Wu Chun asked.

"I forgot then, but now I know."

"What?" Wu Chun looked straight at Xu Shiyao, as if he understood what he was talking about, but also didn't seem to understand what he was talking about.

The moment Wu Chun raised his head to look at Xu Shiyao, he felt a sudden cool kiss on his forehead. Immediately afterwards, Wu Chun heard him say, "When I saw these words, my first thought was not to hurt you."
