After leaving the town, following the shortest route to the hidden forest, the convoy will pass through several cities. In order not to disturb the local residents, and to be more low-key, they decided to take a detour and try to walk along the sparsely populated suburbs.

Xi Ning felt that the convoy was driving faster during the day, and it was more bumpy than when it first started, but he could basically bear it.

The dwarf rested for another half day on the road, and regained his lively appearance. He got to know the mercenary group a lot when he was drinking in the hotel, and now he often hangs around tables in the middle of his meal, chatting and bragging with others.

Lin An finished his meal in the corner, packed the dishes and returned to Xi Ning, and served him a bowl of soup.

Today's soup is mushroom and tofu soup, which is very light and suits Xi Ning's taste. Xi Ning picked it up and took a sip, then looked up at Lin An: "Why don't you just eat with me in the future? You don't need to go anywhere else."

Lin An lowered his head and stood beside Xi Ning: "Your Highness, my face is inconvenient to show to others."

The dining shed was full of people, and it was impolite for him to have a meal with Xi Ning as a servant, so he showed his whole face in case someone would cause trouble, saying that he affected his appetite, after all, such a thing had happened before.

"What are you afraid of?" Xi Ning grabbed Lin An's wrist, forcing him to sit down, but Lin An didn't sit down, so he said, "My neck hurts when I talk like this."

Lin An had no choice but to sit down. Someone nearby turned his head and took a look, but there was no other reaction.

"How about another mask? Just cover the upper half of your face."

In this way, the half of the face that was not covered also had some traces. Lin An imagined the picture, shook his head and said, "Your Highness, don't worry about me."

He refused again and again, so Xi Ning had no choice but to stop talking and finish the soup in the bowl with a dull head.

The dwarf came back to pick up the food. He didn't know what he was talking about with others before, and he muttered: "I will never drink again..."

He casually asked Xi Ning: "His Royal Highness, you were the only one who didn't drink the bar at the hotel that day? No, the little mask didn't drink either..."

What is the strange name for the little mask?Xi Ning glanced at Lin An and put down the bowl: "I drank it too, but only a little bit."

The dwarf gasped and widened his eyes: "What did I hear? A forest elf actually drank wine? Are you really a forest elf?"

His voice was not low, someone at the next table looked over curiously, Xi Ning touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment: "I didn't know at first, I thought it was something like juice."

The fruit wine tasted like fruit juice, and the dwarf seemed to have discovered something strange, so he sat next to Xi Ning and kept asking him.

"How do you feel after drinking? Do you talk gibberish?"

"Of course not," Xi Ning emphasized, "I only drank one cup, a very small cup."

The dwarf said "Oh": "Then you should be quite awake. I woke up that day and forgot how to get back to the room."

Xi Ning smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Yes, I'm just a little dizzy, and I haven't forgotten anything."

Lin An listened silently to the conversation between the two, lowering his head, wondering what he was thinking.

After the dwarf finished speaking, he took the bowl and went to another table. After drinking the soup, Xi Ning got up and walked to the carriage. The sun was at its peak at noon, and the warmth on his body was very comfortable.

Xi Ning didn't want to get into the carriage now, so he found an open space to bask in the sun, and Lin An brought him a chair.

This time and weather are the most suitable for taking a nap, but unfortunately the chair is too hard, Xi Ning propped his head up and felt sleepy, wishing that Lin An could hold him.

When he was about to fall asleep, he felt that the sunlight in front of him was blocked by someone, and when he opened his eyes, he found that Lin An was blocking him.

Seeing that Xi Ning was not asleep, Lin An explained in a low voice, "Your Highness, a stranger is here."

Xi Ning quietly turned his head to take a look, it was a teenage child.

Their convoy stopped in a suburb outside the city, and the children walking towards them were wearing plain clothes, carrying a small woven basket filled with flowers, talking to passers-by while walking.

Xi Ning was not wearing a cloak at this time, and his appearance was inconvenient for strangers to spot. He simply got up and hid behind a tree. When the child approached, he heard that he was selling flowers in a basket. How many are sold.

He estimated that it had already been out all morning. Although the flowers in the basket had been sprayed with some water, but the sun was high today, most of the flowers were already wilted, their petals were limp, and the stems were tilted and fell into the basket.

Wouldn't it be even more difficult to sell this way? Sure enough, the child asked several people in a row. Some of the mercenary group became interested. They wanted to buy it and put it on the skirt to look good. When they saw that the flowers looked like this, they quickly waved their hands: " Forget it."

Seeing this, Xi Ning found a few gold coins from the storage ring, and tugged at Lin An's sleeve: "Go and buy all his flowers."

Lin An didn't take the gold coins from Xi Ning, but took some ordinary currency from him: "It's not expensive, just use these first."

Before the child could go far, Lin An stopped him and asked to buy all the flowers in his basket.

Lin An wore a pitch-black mask. The child was taken aback at first, but after hearing what he said, he was very pleasantly surprised. He bowed and thanked him, and gave the basket to Lin An directly.

The child guessed the reason why Lin An did this, and thanked him sincerely: "Sir, you are really a good person."

Lin An twitched the corners of his lips mockingly, returned to the tree with the flower basket and handed it to Xi Ning.

The child had turned back and left, Xi Ning sat down again holding the flower basket and touched the wilted petals.

He has the fire of life in his body, which should also bring these flowers back to life. Xi Ning mobilized the aura in his body based on his feeling, and the light green soft light radiated from his fingertips, slowly melting into the flowers in the basket.

The originally bent stems became straight again, and the petals became gorgeous and plump again, completely disappearing from the previous appearance.

Xi Ning used the Flame of Life for the first time so smoothly. He showed Lin An a flower basket and said excitedly, "Look, they are all alive."

Lin An pursed his lips and smiled, realizing that Xi Ning couldn't see his face, so he responded, "Yes."

Xi Ning checked each flower and made sure there was nothing wrong with it, and handed it to a passing guard: "Divide these among them."

It's useless for him to keep so many flowers, the guard took the flower basket and replied: "Yes, Your Highness."

From the moment Xi Ning used the fire of life, Lin An's attention has been on the revived flowers. After the guard took the flower basket, he stared at the guard's back for a while, then turned his head to face Xi Ning, who had started to doze off again. Said: "Your Highness, I will go back as soon as I go."

Xi Ning didn't think too much, closed his eyes and responded, listening to his footsteps and leaving, he came back not long after.

After a rest, the convoy set off again. In the afternoon, Xi Ning was sitting at the window looking out at the scenery. Lin An pushed the door open and came in, holding a small flower pot that he did not know where he got, and a water-red flower was planted in it. flower.

Xi Ning looked familiar and asked, "This is..."

"I went to ask for one of the flowers that His Highness rescued at noon." Lin An lied without changing his face or tone, "How about putting it on the table?"

There is still a basket in his storage bag, all of which are airtight and sealed. When Xi Ning used the fire of life, these flowers also grew new roots. He picked the most beautiful one and wanted to put it on every day. where you can see.

The flower pot is the simplest earth-colored ceramic, plain and simple but not ugly. Xi Ning took it and placed it in the middle of the table. When she touched the petals with her fingertips, the whole flower seemed to be in better condition than before.

Xi Ning's eyes darkened, and he said with a smile, "It's very happy."

Lin An stared at Xi Ning's fingers and flickered for a moment. When Xi Ning put his hand on his face, could he also feel his emotions?

Xi Ning quickly withdrew his hand and leaned against the window again.

Last time they were delayed in the hotel for a long time because the dwarves were unwell, and it took a lot of time to detour. The head of the group suggested to His Majesty Ferro that they should hurry at night and reach their destination as early as possible.

The head of the group can ensure that the day and night manpower is arranged, but those who have to rest at night like Fei Luo and Xi Ning may not be so comfortable.

Fei Luo and Xi Ning talked about it, and Xi Ning had no objection. After all, saving lives is the most important thing. It is better for everyone to go early and return early.

So the team adjusted its schedule up and down, and started to rush at night, only stopping for two hours in the middle of the night to rest.

No matter how comfortable the carriage is, there will inevitably be bumps and turbulence when driving on the road, which Xi Ning could barely bear at first.

After a long time, Xi Ning always couldn't sleep well, and he only wanted to catch up on sleep during the day after lunch, and couldn't fall asleep peacefully during the rest of the time.

He felt that probably due to the influence of this body, the forest elves never went out, and when they were far away from the woods, they were weaker than ordinary people, and their own aura could not give much help.

Moreover, when he woke up at night, he was the only one in the carriage, and it was not easy for him to clean Lin An at night. The impact of the illness continued to hit, and Xi Ning was in a worse mood.

In the middle of the night, the wheels of the carriage slid over a small pit, the carriage bumped, and Xi Ning woke up again.

He closed his eyes again, but he couldn't fall asleep anyway, and he was so sleepy, irritability and grievance surged together, Xi Ning could only blame himself for feeling too light, but he couldn't bear things that others could bear.

Xi Ning tossed and turned for a while, couldn't help sitting up, and tried to call out: "Lin An?"

Lin An and the two servants took turns to watch the night. It was his turn tonight, and he rested outside by the door. Hearing this, he immediately opened his eyes, opened the carriage door and walked in.

There was no light in the room, Xi Ning sat by the bed, saw a familiar figure in the dark, and felt a little better.

"Your Highness?" Lin An half-kneeled in front of Xi Ning, and said softly, "What's wrong, can't sleep?"

He has a keen sense of hearing and knows that Xi Ning often wakes up every night recently, probably because they also started to hurry at night.

Xi Ning let out a "hmm", lay down on the bed, and grabbed Lin An's sleeve: "Did I wake you up? Can you stay here with me... If you are sleepy, you can just sleep here." Can……"

Just sleep here?There was only one bed in front of him here, Lin An remained silent and did not answer, Xi Ning didn't know how he was going to react now, he just thought he was refusing.

Xi Ning slowly let go, and whispered: "I'm sorry, you can go back and rest."

Lin An looked at the table, because Xi Ning was in a bad mood recently, and the flowers on the table were not in good condition, he restrained the urge to touch Xi Ning's hair, and whispered: "I won't leave, Your Highness rest at ease."

"Really?" Xi Ning was instantly happy, grabbed Lin An's wrist again, and pulled it closer, "Then do you want to..."

He wanted Lin An to go to bed with him directly, but Lin An would definitely not agree.

There was a small blanket in front of the bed, and Lin An sat on it, covering Xi Ning with the other hand: "Sleep, I'm not sleepy."

With him here, Xi Ning's emotions were soothed a lot. He held his warm hands tightly, and even though the carriage was still shaking slightly, he felt much better.

Xi Ning hugged Lin An's arm and fell asleep, and Lin An sat in this position all night.

The next day, Xi Ning's spirits improved a lot. At night, he still wanted Lin An to accompany him, and called him into the carriage before going to bed.

"Will you sleep here from now on?" Xi Ning whispered with anticipation in his eyes, "I will sleep better when you are with me."

Lin An didn't quite understand the reason, but he quickly responded, "Okay, I'll go get ready."

Xi Ning thought he would refuse, but Lin An agreed so easily. He quickly took a narrow mattress and spread it by the door. Xi Ning asked him to spread it next to his bed, closer to him .

The bed in the carriage was very low, and it was almost like sleeping next to Xi Ning. Lin An paused, and obediently pulled the mattress close to Xi Ning.

After tidying up, Lin An waited for Xi Ning to go to bed first, the mask on his face hadn't been removed yet, Xi Ning lay down on his side and said, "Take off the mask."

Lin An hesitated for a while, and went to turn off the lamp on the table before taking off the mask and putting it on the table.

After getting along with Xi Ning for a long time, Lin An understands his personality better, and he no longer needs to ask him about some trivial matters, just do it directly.

The vision in the carriage dimmed, Lin An went to the floor and lay down in his clothes, and said softly, "Your Highness, go to sleep."

Xi Ning felt his presence and breath, and closed her eyes obediently.

He fell asleep in Lin An's direction, and Lin An could see Xi Ning's face as long as he turned his head, with a few strands of silver hair hanging down beside the bed.

Lin An also turned sideways, looked at Xi Ning for a long time in the dark, and then slowly fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, Xi Ning woke up as usual, and he couldn't tell whether it was because the carriage was bumping again, or he had formed a habit of waking up continuously in the middle of the night these days.

When he opened his eyes, he immediately saw Lin An next to him. The other person was breathing calmly, as if he was completely unaffected by his journey at night.

Xi Ning moved a little to the side of the bed, stretched out his hand to touch Lin An, Lin An who was sleeping soundly moved slightly, and opened his eyes: "Your Highness?"

His voice was very soft, Xi Ning was still in a daze just after waking up, and accidentally rolled off the bed, Lin An quickly stepped forward to catch him.

Xi Ning put his arms around Lin An's waist, his brain cleared up a lot, but he didn't want to let go, and he didn't speak, he hugged him tighter, and buried his face in the clothes in front of Lin An.

Lin An's breathing was stagnant, and after waiting for a while, Xi Ning didn't see any movement, so he lowered his head and called softly, "Your Highness?"

Xi Ning didn't respond, and his breathing became steady again not long after leaning against him.

There is still a long way to go to the secluded forest. It is not a solution for Xi Ning to sleep well like this. Lin An released a trace of smoke from his fingertips and slowly drifted into Xi Ning's body. Xi Ning in his arms fell asleep even more deeply. Unless he withdraws his aura, Xi Ning won't wake up again this night.

This is also the reason why he simply agreed to sleep in the carriage. It was only logical that he could use spells more unobtrusively if he got closer, and he could respond to any other situation at any time.

The system didn't see Lin An's actions. It was feeling sorry for Xi Ning, but suddenly its eyes went dark. Not only could it not see the outside world, it couldn't contact Xi Ning either.

It panicked to see if there was any bug, and after checking all the data, an instruction appeared.

[Because the host is affected by the spell in this world, the system is temporarily blocked and cannot be connected. ]

The spells in this world... I didn't expect the spells in this world to have such a big impact. The system has calmed down. It didn't find anything abnormal just now. Lin An is the only one who can use spells on Xi Ning under such circumstances.

It knew that Lin An was not that simple, what did he want to do when he used spells on Xi Ning?

The system can't go online, and I can only hope that Lin An will never hurt Xi Ning like the previous few worlds.

Lin An had already put Xi Ning back on the bed, sat on the ground and stretched out his hand, drawing the outline of Xi Ning with his fingertips.

He touched the long silver hair as he wished, strands were entangled between his fingers, and he got closer to smell the fragrance of the grass and trees, and then slowly let go of it and tidied it up.

Finally, Lin An took Xi Ning's hand and kissed his fingertips lightly.
