Chapter 23 Escape

When Yan Ji saw this warm scene, she was moved and had a trace of envy for Yang Huanyu, who was loved. Perhaps, it is difficult for people whose parents are still alive to understand Yan Ji's current mood.

Gradually, Yan Ji found that it was superfluous to appear in this scene and wanted to leave here.

Su Qiurong coaxed her daughter for a long time before making Yang Huanyu laugh and talking happily with her mother there. The scene was extremely warm. At this moment, Yan Ji stood beside him and couldn't speak. He looked a little embarrassed and felt that it was superfluous here.

Fortunately, Yang Huanyu did not forget her "brother" at this time and smiled in her mother's arms for a moment. Suddenly, she left her mother and walked to Yan Ji's side. She took Yan Ji with a jade-like hand and walked to her mother and said to her mother, "Mom, look, I found my brother."

Su Qiurong nodded and smiled and said gently, "Well, I know. Yuer is really good." Then he turned his eyes to Yan Ji and said to him, "Drink some water quickly. You haven't drunk all day. Are you thirsty?"

Yan Ji answered sly, picked up the lotus leaf and only took two small sips. Soon handed the water to Yang Huanyu and said, "I'm full. Let me give you a drink."

With Yang Huanyu's pure and straightforward nature, of course, she will not doubt that her brother just took two sips symbolically. The purpose is mainly to leave more water for her. Looking at Yan Ji's sweet smile, he took the lotus leaf and took a big sip and drank it.

At this time, Su Qiurong took out two peaches from another bag of lotus leaves and handed them to Yan Ji. He said softly, "Eat some fruit, it's much better than nothing to eat."

Yan Ji took a look at the lotus leaves and found that there were as many as 20 peaches in the bread. He ate a few and would not make Yang Huanyu hungry, so he rest assured to take over the two peaches to eat. Su Qiurong was delicate. Just now, she found that Yan Ji drank very little water. Now she saw that Yan Ji only ate two peaches and didn't eat them anymore. She immediately took four or five peaches and stuffed them to Yan Ji and smiled, "Don't look outside. Eat more peaches to quench your thirst. Don't think I didn't see anything just now. In fact, you didn't drink water at all."

At this time, Yang Huanyu found that Yan Ji's care for her was greatly moved, but the water had been drunk by her alone. At present, in addition to complaining that she was too stupid in her heart, she also said to Yan Jijiao with emotion, "Brother, you are so good!"

Of course, it was not a bad thing for Yan Ji to do the ground, but when she was found, she was a little red-faced and at a loss.

Outside the cave, it rained continuously and did not stop until the evening.

At the mouth of the cave, Yan Ji stood there alone, looking at the rain curtain in a daze. Perhaps affected by this dark weather, a big stone in his heart could not be put down. He was always entangled with that matter and had all kinds of worries in his heart. Therefore, his 20-year-old face looks like a 30-year-old man.

Su Qiurong is accompanying her daughter in the cave until dark. After Yang Huanyu fell asleep, she went to the mouth of the cave to see what Yan Ji was doing.

Although Yan Ji was in a daze, she still heard the gentle footsteps behind her. Looking back, she saw that it was Su Qiurong. She nodded to her and asked, "Yuer, is she asleep?"

Su Qiurong nodded slightly, walked to Yan Ji, looked into the rain curtain, and said to Yan Ji, "Isn't it urgent to wait like this?"

At this moment, after Yan Ji knew that Yang Huanyu was asleep, an idea suddenly came out of his heart. He thought that he would not be entangled by Yang Huanyu while leaving now. He hesitated for a moment and finally said to Su Qiurong, "I have rested all day, and my injury must be fine. I think I should now It's time to go."

Su Qiurong didn't expect that Yan Ji would suddenly say this sentence. She suddenly turned her eyes back to Yan Ji. After thinking for a moment, she gently persuaded her, "The rain hasn't stopped yet, not to mention that the situation in the mountains is very dangerous. There are people searching for divine fire everywhere. If you go out like this, you will meet them if you are not careful."

After a pause, he aggravated his tone and said to Yan Ji, "Also, the injury on your body will not heal so soon. At least it will take a day and a night. Children can't always lie."

Su Qiurong's words made Yan Ji speechless, especially when she heard the word "lie" and felt sad. He thought there for a while, suddenly realized what the problem was and asked Su Qiurong tentatively, "So, did you meet those people when you went out during the day? When I went out in the morning, I already found that there was an injury on my body. If I had to deal with those people, the injury would be more serious.

Su Qiurong smiled and nodded, "Are you worried about me? But it's just a minor injury. I didn't come back safely.

Yan Ji's face remained unchanged and turned to look at Su Qiurong. I don't know what she was thinking.

Su Qiurong continued, "If you want to leave, just wait until late at night! At that time, Yuer fell asleep and would not pester you as a good 'brother' and cry to prevent you from leaving.

When Yan Ji heard the three words "good brother", his heart couldn't help trembling. For a moment, his feelings were mixed, sour and hot, and his eyes gradually lowered. But just as he lowered his head, he found that there were several colorful long snakes coiled between the rocks in front of the cave, and the snake letter spit out, which looked particularly horrible.

This is a wilderness. At first glance, it is normal for snakes to appear, but Yan Ji and Su Qiurong saw these snakes and thought for a moment, and soon associated these snakes with Duanmu picking flowers. Especially now the number of snakes at the mouth of the cave is gradually increasing, which verifies Yan Ji's idea.

Yan Ji suddenly became nervous and hurriedly held the Jinghong Sword in his hand and said to Su Qiurong, "It may be the end wood picking flowers in Lianhua Valley."

Su Qiurong looked carefully at the snakes, nodded and confirmed, "Yes, Duanmu picking flowers is known as the 'King of Demons' and can control all birds, insects and beasts. These snakes must have been summoned by her to find our enemies. As long as these beasts find the target, they will soon notify Duanmu to pick flowers."

Speaking of this, they suddenly realized that their situation was already very dangerous and quickly said to Yan Ji, "We must leave here as soon as possible and find a place to hide again, otherwise we will soon find it here by picking flowers." After saying that, without waiting for Yan Ji's reaction, he turned around and rushed into the hole to wake up his daughter.

Yang Huanyu was sleeping in the cave and was suddenly carried out by her mother. She was stunned for a few times and didn't realize what had happened. She yawned a few times and then fell asleep.

The three rushed into the rain like this and ran quickly in the night. Yang Huanyu gradually woke up after being caught in the rain. Only then did she find that her mother was walking in the rain behind her back. She probably felt that her dream had been disturbed. She muttered a few times and asked, "What's wrong? What are you doing when it's raining?"

Su Qiurong looked back at her sleepy daughter and couldn't bear to tell her the truth. She said to her in a warm voice, "Take you home to sleep!"

"Go home?" Hearing these two words, Yang Huanyu subconsciously looked around and found that Yan Ji was also following him. The resentment that the original dream was disturbed suddenly subsided. She changed into a beautiful smiling face like hibiscus, looked at Yan Ji a few times, and then buried her head on her mother's back and lay quietly.

Along the way, Yan Ji kept paying attention to both sides of the road. No matter where they went, they could see those colorful snakes, as if the whole ground was full of these things. And at this time, he found that Su Qiurong's footsteps were gradually slowing down, and his breathing was getting heavier and heavier. Obviously, his internal breath was disordered and his injury was aggravated.

He hesitated for a moment, and suddenly caught up with him, moving parallel with Su Qiurong, and said to Su Qiurong, "Let me carry Yuer on my back!"

Su Qiurong was stunned for a moment, turned her head and looked at Yan Ji a few times. She didn't agree to him. She hesitated for a moment and shook her head and said, "No, you have a heart."

At this moment, Yang Huanyu suddenly shouted with joy: "Okay! Let my brother carry me behind his back!" With that, he also broke away from his mother's back, jumped on Yan Ji's back, put his hands tightly around his neck, and leaned his head on his shoulder.

Su Qiurong didn't say anything. She looked at the two people with a smile and then continued to run forward.

In this way, the three of them ran for a while in the dark. Although the rain was not heavy, they would wet their clothes over time. Yang Huanyu lay on Yan Ji's back and was soaked by the rain. She felt very cold. She subconsciously tightened her body, hugged Yan Ji's neck tightly, and put her pretty face against Yan Ji's neck, as if she wanted to borrow a little warmth from Yan Ji.

Yan Ji felt the soft face, as delicate as water, and smelled the faint fragrance on her body, as if she was upset. But at the critical moment, Yan Ji couldn't think much and concentrated on fleeing forward.

However, no matter how they walk, they can't walk to a place without snakes. What's worse, Su Qiurong's footsteps are getting slower and slower, and it seems that the injury has worsened.

Just as Yan Ji was thinking about what to do, a large group of snakes suddenly appeared in the open space in front of them, densely stacked on the ground and could not get down at all. And behind him, there was also a large group of snakes chasing up, forming a situation of encirclement, surrounding the three of them in the snake array.

Yang Huanyu had never seen so many snakes. She was so scared that she shouted "ah" and buried her head behind Yan Ji's shoulder with her eyes closed. She dared not look at those terrible things.

Yan Ji and Su Qiurong both stopped, but Su Qiurong's form was not optimistic, and her breathing became heavier and heavier. After stopping, she simply bent down and squatted on the ground and gasped. Obviously, she suffered great pain.
