【Tuyan】Sword goes slant

Shen Tu threw a dead branch into the fire, and the bonfire swayed and rose, and the golden-red sparks exploded in all directions, making one or two crackling sounds from time to time.

He patted the ashes on his hands, and said lightly: "You should have noticed that this forest is alive."

An Yan frowned and nodded, "I feel a little... But this is too ridiculous, a forest, can it be alive?"

In human cognition, the concept of "alive" is very broad, but most of them refer to individuals with self-awareness, and this forest obviously does not belong to the concept of "individuals" or having "self-awareness".Therefore, although An Yan had conjectured, he still dared not draw a conclusion.

Seeing that Shen Tu also said so, An Yan couldn't help asking: "How can you be sure?"

Shen Tu's gaze turned back to An Yan, pondered for a moment, and replied: "I was the only one in this forest before, maybe I knew I couldn't go out, so the forest is only consciously hindering harassment, not obliterating."

"You mean, because of my appearance, the forest has a sense of crisis?"

Shen Tu nodded, "You have the power of Yu Lei, I'm afraid it made him aware of something."

An Yan was dumbfounded. After a while, he felt a little complacent, and couldn't help saying: "I didn't expect this forest to be quite sensible. I know that I am not a simple person."

"..."

"According to you, he evolved because of my appearance, so should I pretend to be a weakness so that he can miscalculate the enemy's strength, and then we will catch them all by surprise?"

"..." Shen Tu secretly rolled his eyes, turning his head away and not paying attention to someone who was shy.

"Why don't you talk? See if my method works!"

Shen Tu coldly spit out two words: "Dream."

An Yan suddenly fainted.

After talking for a while, it was already very dark. Except for the fire where the two of them were, the rest of the place was shrouded in darkness by thick fog.Shen Tu was injured, and it would take a while to fully recover, so An Yan proposed to rest for one night before leaving, Shen Tu did not refuse.

To be on the safe side, Shen Tu set up a simple formation around his body, as long as there were abnormal fluctuations in spiritual power, the formation would wake up the two of them.

An Yan seldom saw Shen Tu setting up an array, so he became interested, and followed behind to ask questions. Shen Tu had a rare patience, so he simply taught An Yan along the way, making the other party happy for a while.

An hour later, An Yan finally mastered some methods, and then remembered to ask Shen Tu to sleep, and then consciously gave the only blanket to the wounded number.

Shen Tu glanced at him and said, "Let's go together."

An Yan was stunned, and pointed to himself, "Sleep together?"

Shen Tu nodded, and the man had already laid down on the side and closed his eyes.

An Yan scratched the back of his head, and fell asleep on the other side obediently.

The two of them were back to back, feeling a little snuggled, which dispelled the chill of the cold night a lot.

After a day of tossing, An Yan was already exhausted, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

The bonfire burned for most of the night, slowly extinguished and darkened, and the thick darkness poured down in an instant, and the mountains were silent and cold, completely submerging the two of them.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, An Yan was awakened by a slight tremor.

When he opened his eyes, he thought that an enemy was attacking, and the formation was triggered. When he sat up, he found that the surroundings were quiet, and there was nothing unusual. Only the fire a few steps away was still unburned. In the corner of my eye, sparks flickered like sparks.

An Yan yawned, put on his glasses, and looked at his watch. It was past four o'clock in the morning.

"It's an illusion..." He muttered and wanted to lie down again, but accidentally touched the person next to him with his elbow, and immediately felt the chill from the person next to him.

An Yan was startled, and immediately pushed Shen Tu's shoulder with both hands, and called, "Shen Tu? Shen Tu?"

He called a few times, but Shen Tu didn't respond, and didn't even seem to wake up in the slightest.In the blurred light, An Yan could only see Shen Tu's eyes closed, his brows knit into a ball, his face pale, and his lips pursed into a line.His whole body was trembling slightly, as if he had a terrible nightmare.

Fragments of dream talk overflowed from Shen Tu's lips, An Yan couldn't hear it clearly, but only vaguely caught a few breath sounds.

After a while, Shen Tu trembled more violently, and even had muscle spasms due to excessive exertion.

An Yan was anxious, quickly shook the other party vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Shen Tu, wake up! Wake up!"

As soon as the words fell, the person who was haunted by the nightmare suddenly opened his eyes, and grabbed An Yan's arm with one hand like lightning, with great strength, An Yan cried out on the spot in pain.

"I'm going, it's me! Shentu! Let go!"

Shen Tu shook his head, his hands loosened slightly, and after a while, his misty blue eyes regained some focus, and he fixedly looked at An Yan with a dazed expression.

"An Yan?"

"Yes, it's me!"

Shen Tu was taken aback for a moment, and finally let go of his hand, and said in a hoarse voice, "Sorry... are you okay?"

An Yan sat back on the ground, let out a long breath, rubbed the arm that was pinched by Shen Tu, and said sadly: "It's nothing, but I almost lost an arm."

Shen Tu: "...Let me see."

Seeing that the other party really wanted to get up and come over, An Yan waved his hands again and again, jumped up and said, "It's all right, I'm just kidding."

Shen Tu was silent for a long time, said "Oh", and sat back down again.

After what happened just now, both of them lost sleepiness. An Yan rekindled the fire, squatted beside Shen Tu, glanced at him from time to time, his expression hesitant to speak.

Shen Tu was tired of being watched, so he changed his leg stretching position, leaned against the tree with his arms around him, and said coldly, "Speak up if you have something to say."

An Yan muttered, rubbed his face, hesitated for a long time, and then said cautiously: "Did you just have a nightmare?"

Shen Tu's eyes flashed, but he lowered his eyes and remained silent.

An Yan secretly scolded himself for talking too much, and was about to apologize, but Shen Tu opened his mouth, and simply admitted: "Yes."

An Yan was at a loss, thinking about whether he should comfort him, but the more nervous he was, the less he knew what to say, and the atmosphere fell into a subtle silence for a while.

After a while, Shen Tu sighed, turned to face An Yan, and said flatly, "Don't put on that expression."

An Yan immediately covered his face and smirked awkwardly: "What, I don't even know what expression I have now..."

"It's like mourning a concubine."

An Yan was furious immediately: "Damn, people are worried about you!"

Shen Tu lowered his head and let out a muffled laugh, the ice and snow in his eyes melted, revealing a bit of warmth, and said, "Thank you."

An Yan was speechless.

This smile made An Yan a little uncomfortable. He suddenly remembered the mood after secretly taking pictures of the other party, and couldn't help his heartbeat speeding up. Ah, why are you thanking me?"

But Shen Tu didn't make any more noise, leaning there and looking at the sky quietly.

An Yan rubbed his face, calmed down his weird emotions, and moved to sit next to Shen Tu.

I don't know what beautiful things there are in the sky that can attract Shentu's eyes. An Yan imitated him and looked at them for a while, then gave up and lowered his head, turned his sore neck, touched his stomach, and thought about what to eat later good.

At this moment, Shen Tu suddenly asked, "An Yan, why are you following me?"

An Yan was taken aback, and was caught off guard by the question.

Shen Tu had already turned his head to look at him, his icy blue eyes seemed to be filled with stars and moons, and under the stars and moons were tiny dancing lights of fire.

An Yan's mouth became dry, and he remained silent for a long time.

Why follow Shen Tu?This is a question that An Yan himself rarely thinks about carefully.

As if it was a mission that had to be completed, this matter undoubtedly occupied the most important position in An Yan's life, so that there was no need to think about the reasons and reasons.

He wanted to follow him, so he followed.It is like this when you are alive, and it will be like this when you die. This matter will not even change because of life and death.

However, when did it become like this, An Yan had no way of knowing.

It was too natural, and it silently replaced An Yan's life for the past 20 years. By the time An Yan realized it, he had already been deeply involved and could not get out.

Shen Tu stared at An Yan quietly, and said slowly: "You could have been an ordinary person and have an ordinary but rare stable life. I gave you a choice, and you still followed."

An Yan knew that Shen Tu was talking about the farewell a year ago, which was supposed to be the end of their relationship, but because of his choice, it became a new beginning.

An Yan wondered why he mentioned this, looked up at Shen Tu, and said seriously: "Yes, this is my choice. I want to follow you, I am willing to follow you, no matter what dangers I encounter, it doesn't matter."

Shen Tu was silent for a long time, just when An Yan thought that the other party had given up on this topic, he heard Shen Tu's sigh.

Shen Tu said: "An Yan, you have the life I dreamed of. But you gave up."

An Yan's heart trembled, and he suddenly understood the meaning of Shen Tu's words.

Because I once had no choice, I gave others the opportunity to choose.Because I know how dangerous and difficult this road is, I hope that the other party can retreat in spite of the difficulties.

An Yan finally understood the tenderness and kindness in Shen Tu's words at the beginning, on this Shen Tu who he thought would never care about anyone.

"Fate is not as simple as you think."

"..."

An Yan stood up suddenly, and said word by word: "I know."

"..." Shen Tu raised his eyes and stared at him with a complicated expression.

An Yan took a deep breath and said: "I know, you hope that I will not continue to take risks, and hope that I can return to a peaceful life. However, the choice is given to me by you, but it is me who makes the decision, and I choose it myself I choose to follow you on this dangerous road, in the past, present, and future, I, An Yan, will not regret this choice."

"An Yan..."

An Yan interrupted Shen Tu's words, and almost shouted excitedly: "Yes, I don't know what Shen Tu's fate is, and I don't know what my future fate will be. But I don't care. I can't be here After going through so much, you can still pretend that nothing happened and go back to your past life, and then let you carry this heavy fate on your own to move forward."

"..."

"Besides, didn't you tell me that Shentu and Yulei are connected by fate, if that's the case, then don't even think about acting handsome and being a hero by yourself!"

Shen Tu was silent for a long time, the flame flickered, and a swaying reflection fell on his side face.

"I see." He chuckled lightly, lowered his head, his expression was soft and warm, very much like the Shen Tu he saw in the illusion in An Yan's memory.

"Since you have made a decision, follow closely and don't fall behind."

An Yan bent his eyes and smiled, and said confidently: "Of course, don't underestimate my perseverance!"
