so long

"Little brother is a very catchy name. I am much older than you. How about calling you Brother Yin?" Lord Ning is always easy-going and talkative with others, and it is easy for people to have a good impression of him. Saying this, Sure enough, the young man nodded in agreement and asked:

"I don't know what to call it..."

"Jing Yao..." Prince Ning is always reluctant to use his full name when he is outside, and he does not want others to know his identity. Firstly, it is for the sake of safety, and secondly, it is also to make others relax and not be so rigid. On the big rock that had already been wiped clean by the young man, his slender and fair hands straightened the underwear stuck to his body, and said, "Can you call me Brother Jing Yao?"

Of course the young man agreed, and then he was busy with his own business, did not say anything, just took out some messy plants from the back basket on the ground behind him, and began to classify them.

Ning Jingyao took a closer look and said, "Moon Sleeping Grass?"

The young man paused his movements, looked at the man with some surprise, the slight sense of strangeness that he had had from just now seemed to disappear all of a sudden, and asked, "How did Brother Jing Yao know this?" Probably because they talked about topics that the other party was interested in, the young man's eyes were a little bit bright when he looked at the man.

Ning Jingyao smiled and said: "...this... I have seen it in books before." Indeed, I have seen it in books. Before Prince Ning was 16 years old, he was carried to the imperial study every day by Emperor Juxiu. When revising the memorial, Prince Ning searched for interesting books everywhere, not to mention all of them, about nine out of ten of them were read by Ning Jingyao, and he never forgot them.

"Hey...Brother Jingyao's family must either be rich or famous..." Yin Shishi sighed, "After all, this kind of grass is very rare, even the book that records it is a rare book."

Ning Jingyao didn't continue Yin Shishi's words, but asked: "Did Brother Yin come to this mountain specially to look for moon sleep grass?"

"Not really..." Yin Shisi sat casually, but even if he rolled up his sleeves to reveal his strong forearm, which was stained with dirt and dust, it could still make people see the self-cultivation of the other party, "Accompany A friend came here. This Baidingfeng agrees with the growth environment of the moon sleep grass, so I came here to try my luck, I didn't expect it to exist."

"I heard that moon sleep grass is a good thing that can cure all diseases, but Brother Yin is here for this?"

The young man played with a small handful of moon sleep grass that had been separated out, threw the weeds away casually, shook his head and said, "It's just that I'm interested. But... maybe it will be useful in the future..."

Prince Ning laughed.

It's still raining, and it's getting bigger and bigger.

The sun that was covered by dark clouds due to the heavy rain also completely disappeared.Layers of thick clouds are depressing and frightening, and the loud thunder from time to time and the lightning that seems to split the sky and the earth suddenly illuminate the earth as if it were daytime, and then completely darken it.

The cave where Ning Jingyao and the young man locked is very long, it seems to be connected with other caves in the whole mountain. I don't know how it was formed, but the sound of dripping water can be heard in the deepest part. Out of curiosity, the man held a simple torch I went in with Yin Shishi to have a look, and found that the colder it got as I walked in, and I could see formed icicles later.

Just like the ten-thousand-year snow on the top of the mountain, it never melts all year round.

It's just that in this heavy rain, the rainwater penetrated from nowhere, and finally meandered and dripped down along the icicles.

After returning to the place where they lit the fire, Ning Jingyao found that her coat had been dried and was almost wearable, so she put on her coat and sat back in her original position, watching Yin Shishi add firewood to the fire...

After the 'expedition' who went into the innermost part of the cave together just now, the two of them obviously talked more.

The man also found that the young man in front of him seemed easy-going but actually had a delicate mind, or it could be said that he was unfathomable, and he was extremely good at planning for a rainy day.

Just looking at the weather, I thought it might rain today, so I bought a bundle of firewood on the way up the mountain, put it in the cave, and then took away the rabbit that popped up while picking sleep grass.

Ever since, the man watched the young man skin the still lifeless rabbit without changing his face, cut open the stomach with a sharp smile, and when he took out the internal organs, his heart was still beating!

Ning Jingyao was fascinated by the strong smell of blood, and always felt that she had that smell all over her body, so she lowered her eyes unnaturally, unable to see what kind of person this Yin Shishi was.

He is only 15 years old, but he is so tall, he is cultivated and educated like the son of everyone, but he is cold and ruthless without knowing it.weird and mysterious...

In a short while, the cave was filled with a smell of meat. Prince Ning contributed his own wine gourd and the young man drank the plum blossom brewed by himself, and the cold was dispelled a lot. The rabbit meat was very delicious. , it was grilled just right, and although it lacked a bit of salt, it was refreshing.Ning Jingyao was divided into two calves, and licked her lips after eating, which made Yin Shishi think that the man wanted more.

While filling their stomachs, Ning Jingyao and Yin Shishi got to know each other again, knowing that the other party was from Qianlong County not far away, the place where the war is happening now.I couldn't help asking the other party if he was going to live here this time or what.

Yin Shishi was already laying a small cushion with the only dry straw at this time, and while calling Ning Jingyao to go over to rest, he said: "Maybe I can stay here for a month, and I haven't seen you for a long time." So relaxing..."

"Then go back to Qianlong County?"

The young man took off his clothes and covered himself and the man. The man was not pretentious, and accepted it calmly. After all, they might not be able to go back tonight, and they must huddle together to keep out the cold before anyone can sleep.

Yin Shishi looked at the fire with unsteady eyes, and said, "Of course I want to go back."

"But soon, the barbarians may attack in an all-round way, and Qianlong County will be very difficult to defend." Ning Jingyao said flatly.

"Why?" Yin Shishi blinked, and there was a hint of surprise in the dark eyes under the thick eyelashes.

"..." The man was a little careless and helpless, "Well... guess. Well, go to bed early, maybe the rain will stop in the morning." After finishing speaking, Ning Jingyao helped Yin Shishi take the coat After a good tug, it covered the young man's body, while he draped it on himself a little, and closed his eyes sideways.

The young man looked at the side face of the man, and unconsciously showed an imperceptible smile, then added some dry wood to the fire, and then slowly closed his eyes.

It stands to reason that sleeping with the sound of rain is the most comfortable thing.

But this time Ning Jingyao always felt uncomfortable, and had a vague premonition, but after all, she couldn't resist the sleepiness that came up later, and fell asleep.

The boy seemed to have fallen asleep as well, breathing steadily, but when he felt something slowly leaning over his shoulder, and finally leaned gently on his shoulder, the boy opened his eyes all at once, without any sleepiness in his eyes, and looked at the The head on his shoulders, and the man's golden eyelashes illuminated by the fire, his heart is calm, like the lake below the mountain reflecting the sky...

However, the young man suddenly smelled a faint smell of blood, that strange but inexplicably disturbing smell!

Before the boy could find the source of the smell, the person leaning on his shoulder let out a muffled sound...

Yin Shishi frowned, thinking that the man was awake, he asked in a low voice, "Brother Jingyao, what's wrong?"

The boy's voice was suppressed very low, as if there was an echo in the empty cave.

The man hadn't fully woken up yet, and while he was half asleep, he actually answered bluntly: "...uh... my stomach hurts..."

Because they were all men, the young man directly stretched out his hand and gently pressed An An's lower abdomen, the heat from his palm warmed the man's stomach, Ning Jingyao was comfortable and no longer made uncomfortable sounds, but the good times didn't last long!The man who was about to fall asleep suddenly woke up, was stunned for a second, and then left the boy who was already half-encircling him!

The man's face was pale and he didn't know what he was thinking.

But the young man looked at the hand he took out from the man's belly, and felt that something was wrong. Finally, he saw a bloodstain on the place where the man was sitting just now, as if he had discovered something, and his face was full of disbelief.

Ning Jingyao's heart was cold, her face was expressionless, but her hand holding the boy's coat became tighter and tighter.

I only heard Yin Shishi say:

"Girl, you're disguised as a man... I don't know at fourteen, how offensive and how offensive." After saying that, she turned her back as if to see no evil, the tips of her white ears turned red from the light of the fire, or because of something else...
