Concave and Convex World: The Wind of Freedom

"brother."

"Don't call me brother."

"Brother, seriously, seriously, look at me, don't turn your head away, look at me."

In a thatched house, Zander and Shen Yun sat face to face. After negotiating with the old man, they were arranged to live here. Since they lived alone all year round, the other rooms were covered with spider webs and were too rotten to be inhabited.

At least there are complete beds and quilts here.

Xander agreed with a smile on his face, then turned around and complained to Shen Yun, as if he had been bullied.

Chen Yun found some rag clothes. Although they were not very cold-proof, they were at least better than blood-stained clothes.

And now, Zander was staring at her as if he was about to say something big.

"Brother, are you... injured there?"

Shen Yun:?

Shen Yun frowned, "Where?"

"Don't be shy, we are all men, there is nothing to be embarrassed to say..."

Shen Yun:? ?

Shen Yun felt something was wrong, "Who is your boyfriend..."

Zander suddenly slapped his thigh, "Tell me, are you injured there? How come we haven't known each other for half a year and it's been ten and a half months, right?"

"That thing from this man is very precious. Let me see if it's serious, so I can find some medicine for you..."

"What the hell are you talking about??"

"Stop talking, I've seen it. Your pants were stained with blood before. Don't blame me for looking around. It's just that your walking posture is not right." Zander said seriously, "Hey, this injury I have to say, don’t be shy, this is a big deal.”

"...Me." Shen Yun was speechless.

She didn't expect that she would face such a situation. All words seemed to pale in front of this mentally retarded person. For a moment, she couldn't help but wonder if her birth date and his horoscope were not the same.

"So is it serious or not?" Xander asked.

Shen Yun sighed, "Seriously."

"Huh?? Then why are you holding back and not saying anything??"

"Your cognitive impairment is indeed very serious. I didn't expect it to be so severe that it would not differentiate between men and women."

"?" Xander thought carefully, but to no avail. "What's the meaning."

"I'm female."

Xander:?

Xander:? ?

Xander:? ? ?

"...Look again and I'll pluck out your eyeballs."

"Ah? That's not right? No, no, don't lie to me, I have read a book!" Zander hesitated, "You, you, you don't look like..."

...Chen Yun silently clenched his fists.

"...Really a woman?"

"Really?"

Zander blinked and looked up at the roof, "Ah...ah?"

"what……"

"..."

Xander took a while and then pursed his lips, thinking, "Hey... uh, let me straighten it out, so what are you here for... your period?"

"It's good to know." Shen Yun turned his head dissatisfied.

Zander seemed to be lost in thought.

But after a while, he came over again, "I haven't asked yet, how old are you this year?"

"Thirteen."

"Then I'm three years older than you, little brother... uh no, this... little sister?"

Shen Yun frowned and said, "Call my name."

"Oh, don't be so outspoken." Xander chuckled, looking silly. Perhaps he was embarrassed because he recognized the difference between men and women, so he changed the subject and said, "Besides, we also accepted a mission from that old man. You have to live here, but you can’t just live for free.”

Shen Yun cautioned, "It's best to check again before eating. Although he does seem... like a good person, we can't take it lightly."

"Don't think so much. The old man looks like he has only one foot in the coffin, and he probably doesn't have much left to live." He glanced at Shen Yun, "But you...you have been in poor health recently. Just don’t move around, just stay here and take a rest.”

"I'm not that weak."

"Don't be so pushy at this time. I heard that girls feel very uncomfortable during their menstrual period. They may suffer from stomach aches, waist soreness, back pain, dizziness, weakness in limbs, and bad tempers..."

Chen Yun raised his eyebrows curiously, "...do you have a sister at home?"

"I have a younger brother."

"Then you know so clearly? As you said before, apart from your master, the only person you grew up with was your brother."

"You're not allowed to inquire about this kind of thing?" Xander spread his hands, "I heard that you little girls don't all like those warm men? Then I must learn a lesson, right? Maybe I can get rich from a rich woman in the future. …Ahem, I said it wrong.”

"..." Chen Yun said perfunctorily, "Oh, big warm man. Then do you know what to do now?"

Xander thought for a while, "Drink hot water?"

"Go, get me a cup of hot water."

"Hey, think of me as your servant." Xander opened his mouth to curse, but stopped immediately, stood up and walked out, "Okay, okay, okay, okay, who told you to be a patient? Just wait. , burn it for you."

Xander sighed and walked out swaggeringly, "Hey, old uncle! Where is your water boiling place?"

"Over there." The old uncle replied with a hunched waist, "Everything is a bit old, the kettle is leaking..."

"Hey, it's okay!" Zander looked carefully and found that there were indeed some water stains around the table where the kettle was placed. There was a thick layer of dust on the lid of the kettle, but the handle was very clean, which was proof that it had been used frequently.

The old uncle asked again, "Young man, is your brother okay? This environment is prone to water accumulation, and it gets extremely humid when it rains. But be careful, it's not a trivial matter to have a fever."

"Thank you for your concern, old man. My brother is much better now. We are all people who have traveled abroad, so our health and bones are much better. Don't worry!" Xander replied with a smile, and went over to boil a cup of hot water.

"Hey, adventure..." The old uncle looked at the sky. He couldn't see, and his eyes were full of darkness. He raised his neck and recalled the past, "When my grandson was young, he always thought about adventure, Ranger. Ah what."

"He watched those cartoons, Heroes, which were so cool and unrestrained, and he liked them. Now...he has really left my old man."

Xander quickly comforted him, "Don't be sad, old man. This matter is all on us! Although our brothers don't have much ability, we have to do our best to find someone for you after accepting your favor!"

"My old man, thank you..."

After Zander boiled the water, he poured a cup and gave it to Shen Yun.

"You'd better not talk too much." Shen Yun took it and boasted, "We can't protect ourselves, so we have to go out and find someone for others?"

Shen Yun obviously heard the conversation outside.

After the scalding water cooled down a bit, she took a sip, but it was still a little hot.

"Yes." Xander shrugged, "So, it's just a verbal agreement."

"...You lied to him?"

"It's not a lie. After all, it's not easy for such an old man to live in such a wretched place by himself. I promised to look for him, but I'd better look for him. But, who knows if I can find him?"

Zander said to Shen Yun, "If you stay sick for a few more days, wait until you have rested here before leaving. Then you can just leave by using the excuse of helping him find his grandson."

"..." Shen Yun sighed lightly, "I've seen it."

"This old man is in a very hidden place, and he won't be easily discovered even if he stays here for a long time."

Xander continued, "Well...so you plan to stay here forever?"

"He described that his grandson was lost on a flat area at the other end of the bridge. That location is not far from here." Shen Yun thought, "Going further north from there, there is a village, which can be seen from the mountain. You can see that it is quite large, and there is a canteen and the like, so his food source may come from there.”

"Let's go there to inquire. If we have any clues, we can help him." Shen Yun put down the water glass and looked at Xander, finding that he was smiling, but what he said was irrelevant to him.

"Wow, our little Shen Yun's analytical skills are so great..." Xander smiled and clapped his hands, changing the topic, "But, are you a little too kind?"

Xander chuckled, his words carrying a hint of sadness and disdain, "You just said that we can't protect ourselves... how can we care about others? Anyway, this old man is not going to die soon, so lie to him. so what?"

"..." Chen Yun replied, "Yes... just think that I mean well."

"I don't want to let down other people's kindness, because there are not many people who are nice to me."

"He gave us food, shelter, and just helped find people. I'll take it as repayment. Why not?"

The two looked at each other.

Zander chuckled, "When you repay others' kindness, have you ever thought that maybe they don't need it, and maybe they can sell you around? What will you do then?"

"Then run away." Shen Yun frowned and said firmly, "I repay mine... just because I see him being good to me. Whether he really wants to be good to me is not important."

"Haha, you will be easily deceived like this."

"...It's not the first time anyway."

Speaking of which, the water in my hand cooled down a few degrees, and the temperature was just right.

After she took a few sips, she heard Xander laugh.

"Should I say you are smart...or do you always like to have your own way?" He whistled and put his hands in his pockets and said nonchalantly, "Okay, then I will accompany you to find him. Anyway, it is just for fun during the trip."

Shen Yun paused and replied, "Okay."
