Later, I finally became a white lotus in the flourishing age [Quick time travel]

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it showed no sign of stopping.Xie Yi looked outside, he could only see a hazy white, everything between the sky and the earth was hidden in the thick and thin rain and fog, and he didn't know the direction.

Xie Yi was a little worried, he didn't know if those killers would come after them, and he didn't know if Qin Zhi's bodyguards could find the two of them.

He withdrew his gaze and looked at Qin Zhi.The man had put on his clothes again, except that his face was slightly pale due to excessive blood loss, his whole body was the same as usual, and no one could see that there was such a hideous injury under the cover of his clothes.

"Your Majesty...can you rest for a while?"

Qin Zhi was slightly stunned, and raised his head to look at Xie Yi.Xie Yi was also looking at him, his youthful pupils were warmed by the orange light of the fire, a little concern and guilt were hidden deep in his pupils, barely visible.

"I don't remember that there is a mountain here." Qin Zhi was silent for a moment, and said softly.

Xie Yi was stunned: "What?"

Qin Zhi repeated again: "I don't remember, there is a mountain in this direction."

Xie Xi's face changed slightly, he realized the reason: "We got lost."

It was raining too much before, and they couldn't see anything clearly. They had already deviated from their original direction without knowing it, and they didn't even know where they were now.

The young man's crow-feather eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he said apologetically, "I have caused Your Majesty to be troubled."

The flames danced, casting flickering shadows on the jagged stone walls.

Qin Zhiding stared at him for a long time, stood up, walked to the stacked hay and branches, bent down to search for something.After a while, he approached Xie Yi and stretched out his hands to him.

In the palm of his hand lay two half-green and half-red fruits.

Xie Yi was a little surprised, raised his eyes to look at him, and asked in a tone: "Your Majesty?"

Qin Zhi's face was submerged in heavy shadows, he couldn't see the real expression, and his voice was calm: "I found it in the cave."

Only found this.

Xie Yi hesitated for a moment, but finally raised his hand and took one of them.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xie Yi bent his lips, and a smile bloomed on his lips.

Qin Zhi's pupils shrank, and he slowly closed his palms, holding the remaining fruit.

The unripe fruit was hard, which made his palm feel slightly uncomfortable.What flashed in my mind was the smile that Xie Yi's lips curved slightly just now.

Xie Yi rarely seemed to smile.he thinks.

However, when she inadvertently raised her lips slightly, it was hard for anyone to ignore her good looks.

His eyes are the purest black, like spots of paint, and when he smiles, it seems that there is a very light, feather-like soft color blooming.The brows and eyes are full of clean and clear joy, just like in February when the grass grows and the warbler flies, the cool spring breeze passes through the steep mountain wall and enters the world.

Xie Yi wiped the outer skin of the fruit with his clothes, and then began to chew.

The fruit was blue in color, obviously not ripe enough, Xie Yi took the first bite, the sour taste exploded in his mouth, making him squint his eyes unconsciously, and frowned.With a move in his throat, he swallowed the fruit pulp.

Qin Zhi noticed his expression and raised his eyebrows: "It's hard to eat?"

Xie Yi shook his head, and said softly: "It's not bad." Then he took a second bite - in the current situation, how can he be picky?

Qin Zhi watched him quietly, and waited for Xie Yi to finish eating before putting the one in his hand into his mouth.

"Sour." He swallowed his first mouthful and said.However, he finished eating slowly without moving his eyebrows.

……

In the middle of the night, it rained harder.

Xie Yi was awakened by the thunder, and saw that the fire was almost burnt out, and the dim flames were attached to several dark branches, jumping slowly, and the gray-black embers scattered all over the ground.

He wanted to pick up some more flammable branches to keep the fire from going out, but when he reached the edge of the haystack, someone grabbed his hand.

"...Thank you." Qin Zhi's voice was hoarse.

The fire light was too faint to illuminate the cave, Xie Yi could only see his vague outline.

"Your Majesty?" Xie Yi let him grab his wrist without struggling.

"Thank you." Qin Zhi only felt as if he was floating in the endless sea, and his mind was dizzy. He instinctively opened his eyes wide, trying to see everything in front of him clearly, but what he saw was the darkness as thick as ink.

"Your Majesty." His voice was like a lingering wind in the empty mountain night, slightly cool but soft, "I am here."

"what are you going to do?"

"The fire is out." Xie Yi said, "I want to get some branches."

Qin Zhi laughed and let go of his hand.

Xie Yi stretched out his hands and groped, wanting to find firewood to continue burning, but the man's voice sounded in his ear: "Do you want to kill Gu?"

His voice floated in the night like thin ice on the water.

Xie Yi was a little dazed, he stopped his movements: "Why does Your Majesty ask such a question?"

"A lot of people, a lot of people..." He probably really lost his consciousness, "I want to kill Gu."

It's not that Xie Yi doesn't understand the current situation at all, Qin Zhi is really a big threat to the aristocratic family.The government was originally monopolized by the aristocratic family, but since Qin Zhi came to power, he has continuously promoted the children of poor families and suppressed the aristocratic family.

"I do not know."

Xie Yi repeated it again, word for word: "I won't."

There was a thunderclap in the sky.

The bright light of lightning tore through layers of rain curtains, illuminating the cave as bright as day.In the split second between light and dark, Xie Yi could clearly see the appearance of the person in front of him - Qin Zhi's forehead was covered with sweat, and his cheeks were abnormally bright red.

"Your Majesty." Xie Yi called him again.

Qin Zhi let go of his hand and turned his face to one side.

"Baibai." Xie Yi called the system, "What should I do?"

"It needs to cool down." Bai Tuanzi was floating in the air, clearly glowing, but it couldn't illuminate anything except himself. "He has a fever and needs to cool down."

Xie Yi tore off the fabric of his own clothes, folded it a few times, went to the entrance of the cave and soaked it in rainwater, then took it back and put it on Qin Zhi.He never took care of a sick person, and everything he did was taught him for nothing.

Soon, Bai Bai reminded him: "It's time to change."

The damp cloth that was ironed by Qin Zhi's body temperature was once again immersed in the cold rainwater by Xie Yi.Xie Yi picked up the cloth after it was soaked by the rain and dried it.

Before he could stand up, there was a loud bang in his ears, shaking his ears for a while.

Countless rubble fell from the top of the cave, and the ground was trembling. An in vain voice sounded in his mind, eagerly: "The host is running! The mountain has collapsed!"

Xie Yi was startled, stood up, but turned and ran into the cave.

Bai Bai was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately, and shouted: "Leave him alone, let's run—"

In the next second, Bai Bai's voice was drowned out by the loud noise of the mountain collapse.

The whole cave collapsed.

……

Xie Yi opened his eyes.

He didn't know how long time had passed, but there was deep darkness in front of his eyes.

"Big host, are you awake?" The white dumpling floated in front of his eyes, and the system's soft voice couldn't conceal the surprise in the words.

Xie Yi tried to move his body, except for the few bruises before, it seemed that there was no serious injury and he couldn't move anymore.

He remembered that the moment the cave collapsed was for nothing...

He reached out and touched Bai Bai, and smiled: "Thank you."

The dull-colored Bai Tuanzi rubbed against his palm, and said in a soft voice, "It's good that the host is fine."

Xie Yi propped up his body, groped to the side, and touched a hand.

The man's skin was still warm.

"His Majesty."

no respond.

Xie Yi stretched out his hand to feel Qin Zhi's pulse, and he breathed a sigh of relief at the slight beating under his fingertips.He groped towards Qin Zhi's forehead, and what he touched was scorching hot.

Qin Zhi still had a fever.

Fortunately, in the narrow space, water seeped from the stone wall on one side and dripped to the ground, forming a small puddle.

Xie Yi took some water, moistened the cloth, and put it on Qin Zhi.

With so many things happening tonight, Xie Yi was extremely tired, after finishing all these things, he leaned against the stone wall and fell asleep.

When he woke up, there was still darkness around him, and he didn't know what time it was.In vain huddled in the corner, motionless, as if exhausted.

Xie Yu sighed imperceptibly, and reached out to touch Qin Zhi's forehead.However, before he touched him, his hand was caught.

"Thank you." The man held his wrist and pronounced his name.

Xie Yi: "Your Majesty is awake?"

When those things happened last night, Qin Zhi only had a hazy consciousness, not sober: "What happened?"

"Landslide." Xie Yi said, "We are trapped."

Qin Zhi gave a "hmm" and stopped talking, he slowly let go of Xie Yi's wrist.

Xie Yi withdrew his hand and didn't make any sound.

In the silent darkness, time seemed to pass extremely fast, and at the same time seemed to pass extremely slowly.

Xie Yi fell asleep again - he really didn't know what else he could do.

In the end, he was awakened by hunger.

His stomach convulsed and burned.Xie Yi couldn't help but hummed softly.

"Hungry?" Qin Zhi's voice sounded in the darkness.

Xie Yi nodded: "Yes."

"Eat." Qin Zhi touched his hand and handed him something.

That thing has a soft touch, like some kind of plant.

Xie Yi was hesitating whether to eat it or not, but he heard Qin Zhi say: "Gu has eaten it, you can eat it."

He bit off a small piece lightly and chewed it twice.The bitterness is also mixed with a damp earthy smell, which is difficult to swallow.

"Swallow it." Qin Zhi said.

Xie Yi stopped chewing.He wanted to spit it out, but he was afraid that this was the only food Qin Zhi could find, and he didn't want to waste it, so he swallowed it in the end.

He stopped eating: “What is this?”

"Moss." In the darkness, Qin Zhi's voice was calm and unwavering, "It's not poisonous."

Xie Yi was silent for a moment: "...Thank you." But this time he did not address "Your Majesty".

Qin Zhi closed his eyes and turned his head away.

Xie Yi took some water, and with the water, ate some food that Qin Zhi gave him.The moss wasn't enough to fill his stomach at all, just to keep him from dying too quickly.

Just that is enough.

Xie Yi thought, we can always go out.
