Chapter 17 Moon Shadow

Yan Ji slowly lowered her head and saw that the beautiful girl in her arms was asleep at this moment. The arm that was still holding his waist gradually slipped down, and her head began to hang uncontrollably on her shoulders.

The girl fell asleep quietly, and her serene face showed a beautiful smile from time to time, as if she could feel what she wanted after falling asleep, and she was by her side at this moment.

Yan Ji seemed to have a little hesitation on her face, but in the end, she still held Yang Huanyu tighter, for fear that sleeping with her head down would cause neck pain, and she also supported her head with her arms to sleep on her arm.

flew for another while, and Yan Ji found that there was an empty valley below. The cool breeze in the mountain stream was extremely quiet, which was a good place to enjoy the cool. He looked at Yang Huanyu, who was sleeping in his arms, thought for a while, and suddenly put away the formula and slowly fell to the valley below with Yang Huanyu in his arms.

As soon as it fell, he felt that the mountain wind was blowing and it was not cool. He put away the formula of flying with the imperial sword and calmed down. The small sweat beads on his forehead had also been blown away by the wind. The surroundings are quiet and cold, quiet and pleasant. From time to time, a few insects call mosquitoes, and they don't feel noisy at all.

Yan Ji came to a stream with Yang Huanyu in her arms, found a big smooth stone, took off her robe and spread it on the stone, and then put Yang Huanyu on the stone to let her lie down and sleep.

Although there are not many mosquitoes in the valley, several mosquitoes flew to bite Yang Huanyu from time to time. She still fell asleep quietly. After being bitten by mosquitoes, she kept turning over and scratching her arms with her hands. Yan Ji heard her movement, hesitated for a moment, and finally came to her side and sat down, constantly waved his sleeves to drive away mosquitoes for her. Naturally, there was an effect. After that, Yang Huanyu's movement gradually decreased, and finally fell asleep peacefully.

The stream flows slowly, making a "gurgling" sound, but it does not disturb Yang Huanyu's sleepiness. Instead, it creates a kind of clear and sad atmosphere, as if it shows that the water is ruthless and will never return.

With the faint moonlight, Yan Ji saw the corners of the beautiful girl's mouth slightly squeezed a few times. Before long, she actually made a few smiles, mostly dreaming of something that could make her happy.

"Brother!"

Yan Ji suddenly heard Yang Huanyu's soft shout, and immediately subconsciously answered. She looked at Yang Huanyu's face and found that she was still lying there with her eyes closed, and there was no sound since then.

At this time, Yan Ji reacted. It turned out that she was talking in her sleep.

Yan Ji didn't care much and began to concentrate on waving her sleeves to drive away mosquitoes. Doing this monotonous action endlessly, as if you can't enjoy it, and you can't feel bored and tired at all. I don't know how long it took, Yang Huanyu made another "woo" sound, as if crying, and then rolled restlessly, and kept shouting, "Brother, don't leave your sister, don't be so bad..."

After crying for a while, Yang Huanyu was suddenly woken up. She sat up and rubbed her tears. She found that Yan Ji was still by her side. She immediately smiled and wiped her tears and said, "It turned out that my brother didn't leave. My mother often said that she thought about the day and dreamed at night. It seemed to be true. I was always worried that my brother would leave, but I really dreamed that my brother would leave, which scared me to tears.

As she spoke, she wiped away the tears on her cheeks. Like a child, she sat next to Yan Ji and said to Yan Ji with a smile, "Brother, you are so kind. I knew you would watch me sleep. I will be good to my brother for the rest of my life."

After thinking for a while, he continued, "They are all brothers. You are a sullen fool and a young man who can't speak. It's not at all. I just found that my brother can talk and deceived those people like fools."

Yan Ji's face suddenly looked ugly, stared at her for a moment, and then said lightly, "Don't talk about those things anymore!"

Yang Huanyu also sensed Yan Ji's anger and immediately looked clever and whispered, "Brother, I know I'm wrong. I won't say anything."

Yan Ji nodded silently. After all, he didn't mean to blame her. After a moment, he changed back to gentle language and said, "You only slept for about two hours. Let's sleep a little longer. When you sleep well, I will take you to your parents."

Yang Huanyu said "Oh", but then as if he had made a wrong decision, he immediately shook his head and said, "I don't sleep. I'm afraid that after I fall asleep, you will run away."

Yan Ji slowly lowered his head and didn't say anything, as if he was thinking about something. After that, Yang Huanyu didn't say much. She seemed to be infected by Yan Ji and began to think about something.

Maybe she is wondering if they can really be together forever like tonight...

The two were so silent, quiet, with only the low calls of mosquitoes and the slow flow of streams. However, a moment later, there was another "cooing" sound.

Yan Ji looked up at Yang Huanyu and asked, "You... haven't eaten anything yet?"

Yang Huanyu admitted without avoiding suspicion and said, "Yes, my stomach is cooing and thirsty!"

When she remembered that she didn't even care about eating because she had to take care of herself, there was a burst of soreness in her heart. She looked at her deeply and pointed to the stream and said to her, "There is ready-made water here. Since you are very thirsty, drink some water. What are you doing here?"

Yang Huanyu gave a "um" sound, slowly walked to the stream and squatted down, holding the clear stream water with his jade palm and drinking it.

At this time, Yan Ji also stood up and took out the fire folds from his arms to light them up, trying to see if there was anything around to satisfy his hunger. However, there are a lot of rocks in this mountain stream. Only a few big trees grow sparsely, but they are not fruit trees. There is really no wild fruit or anything to eat.

However, it is also an endless road. When Yan Ji looked over the stream, he found that there were dense water plants floating on the water downstream of the stream. It was a kind of water grass called "Lingjiao", and the fruit was edible. Yan Ji immediately found a branch and stood on the shore to fish up a small pile of diamond horn branches and leaves, carefully looking for the fruit of the diamond horn.

After drinking enough water, Yang Huanyu turned his head and found Yan Ji's movements. He quickly came this way and asked curiously, "Brother, what are you doing?"

Yan Ji pointed to a pile of diamond fruit he picked and said to Yang Huanyu, "Aren't you hungry? This thing can also be eaten. I only find this thing, and you will eat some.

Yang Huanyu is a young lady who doesn't leave home. She has never seen these things, but as soon as she heard that it can be eaten, she became curious. She grabbed one and stuffed it into her mouth, chewed it a few times, but spit it out and complained, "It's very bitter and can't bite."

When Yan Ji saw her way of eating, she couldn't help laughing, peeled off the shell of a diamond horn, handed the white snow-like fruit to Yang Huanyu, and said, "You have to peel it before you can eat it."

It was this short smile, but it was caught by Yang Huanyu. She reached out to take over the diamond fruit and couldn't help laughing and said to Yan Ji, "Brother, you look so beautiful!" After saying that, he sent the white diamond horn fruit into his mouth and felt sweet and delicious. His attention suddenly turned to the diamond horn. While eating, he praised, "So you want to eat it like this! This thing is so sweet and delicious.

Yan Ji looked at the girl who was happily eating the diamond horn. For a moment, she seemed to forget those troublesome things. The faint smile on her face did not dissipate. She stared at her and helped her pick the diamond horn fruit.

And Yang Huanyu also ate so unscrupulously, and from time to time stretched out his green onion-like jade fingers, stuffed a diamond horn into Yan Ji's mouth, and did not forget to ask, "Is it sweet?"

About half an hour later, Yang Huanyu also ate a lot of horns and felt that she was no longer so hungry. Once the freshness passed, she didn't want to eat it. Yan Ji stopped picking diamond horns and asked Yang Huanyu, "You really don't know where your parents are?"

Yang Huanyu was silent for a moment, and her face changed slightly. She avoided Yan Ji's eyes and replied, "I really don't know where they are."

Yan Ji looked at her, frowned and asked, "You have only slept for two hours. Do you still want to sleep now?"

Yang Huanyu suddenly rushed to Yan Ji's side and said with a sweet smile, "I don't want to sleep. I'm sleepy at all now."

Yan Ji nodded and said to her, "Then I'll take you to your parents now. The 'Phoenix Dance Temple' on the top of Hengshan is about to be born. Where are your parents busy? I'll take you to Hengshan."

Yang Huanyu suddenly asked, "Brother, are you leaving again after you took me to find my parents?"

Yan Ji was silent for a while, and finally answered her, "Yes, I want to go back to the master."

After he finished speaking, he did not immediately look at Yang Huanyu's expression. After a moment of silence in his ears, he suddenly heard Yang Huanyu say to him, "Brother, I want to sleep again now. Let's sleep for a while." After that, Yang Huanyu's several yawns came.

Yan Ji didn't expect the girl's mind to change so quickly. She was stunned for a moment and asked her, "Didn't you just say you didn't want to sleep?"

"Ah...I..." Yang Huanyu pondered for a moment before saying, "I, I don't know why. Anyway, I really want to sleep now."

After saying that, she secretly glanced at Yan Ji, and then quickly ran to the big stone where she used to sleep and lay down, making a look like she was sleeping with her eyes closed. For a moment, she didn't move, and she didn't know if she was really asleep or pretended to be asleep.

However, Yan Ji thought she was really asleep. She stood there for a while, and finally walked to him and sat down, waved her sleeves to help her drive away mosquitoes.

Yang Huanyu lay there and seemed to fall asleep again. I don't know how long it took, Yang Huanyu suddenly sat up and was so scared that she trembled. After she sat up, she made a choking sound and said to Yan Ji, "Brother, you are so kind to help me catch mosquitoes..."

Yan Ji was stunned there for a long time and finally reacted: "You didn't fall asleep at all? Just lying here?"
