Yi Yue left after not staying for long.

Jiang Que built the house with a loud clanging sound.

He Wenshang didn't know when he made a bamboo leaf hat and put it on his head.

Red and green, squatting in the yard chopping bamboo, looks very funny.

But this color tone doesn’t look ugly on a teenager.

He Wenshang ignored him. Before it got completely dark, he took a basin and went to the spring in the back mountain to fetch water for washing.

He Wenshang wiped his body with his clothes, and then he heard footsteps falling on the muddy ground behind him, making a crisp sound of breaking bamboo leaves and dry bamboo strips on the ground.

He Wenshang turned around and saw only a hint of red, and the person behind him was holding his head.

With her chin on He Wenshang's shoulder, she whispered softly and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Brother, you lied to me again."

The touch of the young boy on his lips had not yet faded, and facing Jiang Que's questioning, He Wenshang's breathing was unstable.

She raised her hand to Jiang Que's back and wanted to hug him back, but after thinking for a moment, she put it back.

"What did I lie to you about?"

"I won't tell you. If I tell you, you'll get angry again."

The angry He Wenshang: "..."

Who of us is angry?

Don't exaggerate.

He Wenshang took a deep breath and said, "Are you talking about the town?"

Jiang Que hugged He Wenshang, his breath hitting his neck, and he hummed softly when he heard the words.

Then he added: "Brother, it doesn't matter if you don't want to say it. One day, you will believe me."

After Jiang Que finished speaking, he let go of He Wenshang, took the handkerchief from his hand, and squatted down to wash it beside the spring stream which was less than half a meter wide but about half a meter deep and clear to the bottom.

The cool stream comes down from the mountain, continuously flowing down, drawing a quiet dividing line in the bamboo forest behind the mountain, and flowing all the way down the mountain.

After washing and wrung out the towel, Jiang Que began to wash his face very rudely with He Wenshang's towel.

After cleaning herself, she wrung out her towel, unfolded it, stood up, walked to He Wenshang, and smeared it all over his face.

He Wenshang frowned and pushed him away: "I've washed it."

Jiang Que didn't say anything, just smiled and glanced at He Wenshang's abnormally red lips, as well as the not-so-obvious handprints on He Wenshang's face left by his dirty hands.

He Wenshang pursed his lips, raised his hand to touch the boy's face that had been wiped clean, suppressed his temper, and left.

Jiang Que quickly washed the towel again and followed He Wenshang, carrying the wooden basin that He Wenshang used to wash his face.

Jiang Que's bamboo house has not been built yet, so I will sleep with He Wenshang tonight.

During this period, He Wenshang was recuperating from his injuries and was used to Jiang Que lying next to him.

...

...

"Jiang! Jiang Que! Come out here!"

Early in the morning, someone was shouting in the bamboo forest.

He Wenshang was the first to be awakened, and when he woke up he found himself lying in Jiang Que's arms.

He Wenshang rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.

Seeing that he was still sleeping and frowned in displeasure because of the noise at the door, He Wenshang raised his hand to smooth out the annoyance between his brows.

He Wenshang stood up and put on his clothes. He rubbed his lower back, took a deep breath, opened the door and went out.

The person who came out was He Wenshang. Several people mocked Jiang Que for being a coward and asked him to get out because they wanted to avenge their brother.

However, they did not stop cursing for long when there was a sound of mechanisms being activated and hidden arrows from the mechanisms in the nearby bamboo forest almost shot them into hedgehogs.

He Wenshang has lived alone in the back mountain for so long and no one dared to cause trouble because there are so many traps in his place that one could lose his life if he is not careful.

These mechanisms were all made by the old master himself, for fear that someone would come and see something they shouldn't see.

This group of guys who threatened to avenge their fellow brothers were so scared that they ran away as soon as He Wenshang activated a mechanism.

He Wenshang looked at their stumbling escape route with a mocking look in his eyes.

With this kind of courage, you still want revenge?

Do not overestimate your own capabilities.
