Ye An

In the middle of the night, Ye An suddenly woke up from his dream.

Opening his eyes, the top of his head was covered with scratched wooden boards. When he turned his head sideways, the animal skin under his head was soaked in sweat, and the originally soft fur stuck to his face, causing itching and discomfort.

Pulling off the animal skin and throwing it aside, with one arm resting on his forehead, Ye An took a deep breath, waited until his heartbeat returned to normal, then sat up with his arms propped up, his legs bent, his arms wrapped around his knees, and his head deeply buried in his arms. Take deep breaths constantly, trying to dispel everything that happened in the dream.

Since he settled on the isolated island, he hasn't had a similar dream for a long time.

In the dream, he went back to the snowy wasteland, hiding in the abandoned RV, living a precarious life without a meal.

Everything in the dream was so real that it made him short of breath and his hands and feet were cold.Even after waking up, it is still vivid in my mind, lingering like a thick fog, unable to be completely expelled from my mind.

Ye An lowered his head and brushed his fingertips across his neck. Even though the wound had healed without leaving any scars, he still clearly remembered being dragged out of the caravan in the heavy snow with no power to resist. He was about to face doom of fear.

Qiancheng, Qianjia.

Mingfang...

Everything seems so far away, but also seems very near, almost yesterday.

Ye An sighed in annoyance, and grabbed his sweat-drenched forehead hair. The short-term pain made him completely awake, and he could clearly distinguish dreams from reality.

"Why did you suddenly have this dream?"

He doesn't understand.

Could it be that the nerves were tense for a long time, and finally I was able to sleep well, and the sudden relaxation led to this result?

"What kind of luck is that?"

Ye An laughed at himself, lifted the animal skin and got out of bed, searched around and found a wooden basin of a suitable size, intending to catch some rainwater on the deck and heat it up to wipe off the sweat.

Sweat out, take a hot bath, and calm your nerves more than anything else.

Picking up the wooden basin, Ye An walked to the door, just when he opened the door, he accidentally found Xiao Yun standing behind the door with one arm raised, as if he was about to knock on the door.

"Are you okay?" Seeing Ye An, Xiao Yun immediately asked.

"It's okay." Ye An felt strange, suddenly thought of something, looked at Xiao Yun, and asked, "Can you feel it?"

These words were a bit out of date, but Xiao Yun understood what he meant, nodded, and said, "Intuition, I have a hunch that you are in trouble."

"It's not a trouble, it's just a dream." Ye An waved his hand, walked out of the room, and closed the door behind him.

"Dream?" Xiao Yun's eyes narrowed slightly.

"It's not a big deal, I think about some things from the past." Ye An said casually, walking along the corridor to the deck.

"past events?"

"Well, not a good memory, it's been a long time, I don't want to mention it again." Ye An didn't want to say more, and cut off the topic on his own initiative.

The two passed Xiao Yun's room, Ye An took a look, and found that the door of the room was not closed, and the animal skin on the bed fell on the floor, obviously Xiao Yun left in a hurry.

"I'm really fine." Sensing Xiao Yun's emotions, Ye An assured again and again, "It's just a dream."

While talking, the two walked through the corridor to the wooden ladder leading to the deck.

There was a heavy rain that night, and there was a lot of rain on the deck.

In order to prevent the cabin from flooding, the night watch hunters set up several planks in front of the cabin door and propped them up with wooden sticks.To get out from the inside, the planks must be removed first.Be careful with the long sticks supporting the plank during the process, otherwise it is easy to be injured.

Ye An put down the tub, removed the sticks and planks one by one, and then walked out of the cabin.

Seeing his actions, obvious doubts flashed across Xiao Yun's face.

"You go up on deck just to catch the rain?"

"Yes." Ye An nodded, "Get ready to boil water and take a shower."

Hearing his answer, Xiao Yun's expression became very strange. He seemed to want to say something, but swallowed it back.

"What?" Ye An could clearly capture Xiao Yun's emotions.The connection between the two is too deep, unless it is deliberately blocked, it is difficult to ignore it.

Xiao Yun's mood was too weird, Ye An turned to look at him, wanting to find out the answer.

Xiao Yun looked at Ye An, didn't speak, raised his hand in the dark, spread his fingers, an ice edge formed in the palm, slowly rotated, gradually condensed into the size of a fist, and floated in front of Ye An.

Seeing this piece of ice, Ye An was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed surprise, he patted his forehead hard, and groaned in a low voice, it was all because of that dream!

It's fine if Xiao Yun is not there, he has already reached the door of the room, and he still has to carry the wooden basin and run to the deck to catch the rainwater?It is simply superfluous.

Looking back, he wanted to laugh himself.

"Forget it, it's all here." Ye An smiled and shook his head, his mood suddenly improved, because the shadow of the nightmare gradually dissipated, like a thick fog, leaving no trace.

The rain was full, and the hunters on the night watch happened to change shifts.

After saying hello to the other party, Ye An picked up the wooden basin and turned to go to the kitchen where the fire could be lit.

"Aren't you going back to rest?" Ye An couldn't help asking seeing Xiao Yun walking beside him and not stopping as he passed the room.

"Is this water enough?" Xiao Yun didn't answer directly, but pointed to the wooden basin filled with rainwater.

If you just wipe off the sweat on your body and let yourself relax, of course it will be enough.If it is a bath, it is very reluctant.

Now that Xiao Yun mentioned it, Ye An didn't intend to reject his offer, and went to the kitchen with him, intending to boil more water and take a comfortable bath.

The two came to the bottom cabin, pushed open the door, the cabin was cleaned, and the fishy smell disappeared without a trace, leaving only a faint smell of fireworks.

Ye An put down the tub and pushed open another wooden door at the end of the kitchen.

Behind the door is a warehouse, which is very spacious and has a lot of things piled up.Before grilling saury, Ye An had entered here and found two large wooden barrels, which happened to be used as bathtubs.

The warehouse is well sealed and there is no water ingress like the cabin.

Ye An wiped the wooden barrel, thought about it, and decided not to bring the wooden barrel back to the room, so he decided to soak in the warehouse for a while, and then go back to the room to rest.

Beside the stove, Xiao Yun had already polished the flint and condensed a lot of ice.

The flames rose, and the ice cubes melted quickly in the container, bubbling bubbles.The water began to boil, and large sheets of white water vapor rose up and filled the room.

When the water was almost boiled, Ye An poured one pot after another into the bucket, and asked Xiao Yun for two pots of ice cubes to adjust the water temperature.

He tried it with his hands and felt that the temperature was about the same. Ye An was about to take off his jacket when he suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at Xiao Yun who was by the door, and asked, "Do you want to go together?"

Xiao Yun folded his arms and leaned against the door frame. When he heard Ye An's words, he was caught off guard and slipped for the first time.

"Together?"

"That's right." Ye An smiled and threw his coat aside, stretched his arms, his thin waist stretched with his movements, pointed to another wooden bucket, and said, "Anyway, there is a lot of hot water..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Anzheng felt a little embarrassed when he thought of Xiao Yun's inability to sense the temperature. Xiao Yun standing by the door suddenly stood up straight, walked into the room, and closed the door.

Covering the metal buckle of the jacket with his slender fingers, he opened it with his fingertips, his eyes fell on Ye An's face, Xiao Yun raised one corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome, one is enough."
