Chapter 40
Chapter 40
The wind and snow were getting bigger and bigger, although it wasn't bone-piercing, but the feeling of icy contact with the skin and then melting into snow still made Shen Changling's fingers tremble.
I can't just fall down like this, there is another person behind me, even if it's for him, I have to persevere!
However, the body is almost at its limit... With one hand holding a cane to explore the snow, only the other hand is holding Duan Xuehuai on his back, Shen Changling squinted his eyes and looked at the greenery in the white in the distance - in such a bitterly cold On the snowy field, where is the way out?
"You have to work hard to hold on..." Shen Changling murmured, not sure if she was speaking to herself or to the unconscious person on her back.
He could feel the continuous heat on his back and heart, which was the temperature that Lie Yanhua could not dissipate. Suddenly, there was a lingering heat in his heart—in such a mountain that seemed to be dead, he could feel the warmth that belonged to human beings. What kind of feeling does it feel to be able to feel the existence of two people who are dependent on each other?
Probably the feeling of a trembling little flower emerging from the rock wall in the glacier...
"Are you awake?" Feeling the traces of someone's movement on his back, Shen Changling asked with a hoarse voice, not knowing how many times.
Probably because a person is too lonely, he seems to be able to feel the movement of the person on his back waking up every time, but every time he turns around, he can only see the sleeping face of the other person.
Peaceful as if dying...
He had no choice but to tirelessly ask again and again, walking alone in the wind and snow, the swirling cold wind whistling, the sound was blown back by the rushing wind, it was frighteningly small.
However, a voice smaller than him rang in his ears.
"Really... it's you... I thought I was dreaming..." The voice was intermittent, and it was hard to hear clearly in the cold wind, but the warm breath was close to his ears, and Shen Changling seemed to think that he was dreaming for a while. Hallucination again.
However, no.
When he turned his head to look over, he saw the child's snow-covered long eyelashes trembling undetectably a few times, and a great joy suddenly rose in his heart—even in such a hopeless situation. , the road ahead is long and there is nowhere to be found, but he is already satisfied to see that the other party is safe and sound, and his chest is full of unspeakable warmth and excitement.
"It's not a dream, I found you... I don't know why there was some kind of connection between us, and then I came to you." Dare not to stop, so he had to keep walking forward, Shen Changling was careful Talking to the other party calmly, there is a smile in the eyes that cannot be erased even if it is covered with snowflakes.
A trace of tears slid down almost imperceptibly, and it was almost invisible and melted into the snow on the collar.
It's good that he woke up.
"Silly, I'm here to protect you, not to let you fly moths to the flame." The chest on the back rose and fell weakly, with a more obvious vibration than before breathing, and Shen Chang heard the child's thin voice. in the ear.
One-line lead is set up to protect the other party, and it has completed its mission when it finally protects the other party. It is not, it is not used to let the other party find itself along the link.
How can such an omission be possessed and put the other party in danger?However, it seems to be too late to think about these now...
Duan Xuehuai was lost in thought, and sighed weakly with her lips opening and closing.
Shen Changling turned his head with a smile, his frozen expression was especially weird.But he didn't care about the other party's complaints, he just wanted to smile, even though it was so difficult to reveal the smile at the moment.
He can also talk, which is nice.
"Moths to the flame, just kidding, this is a world of ice and snow, I really hope there is a fire to keep us warm." Breathing out a breath and spraying it on the other person's face, Shen Changling ignored his frozen purple lips, Wanting to make the other party warmer, he even had the mood to joke - I hope he has no breath...
I feel that my legs have no feeling, but as if being controlled by a powerful mind, I am still wading through the deep snow and walking hard.
It's better to find the way away from the mountain quickly. If you follow the direction of the different density of trees, you should be able to distinguish the direction, right?
When you find the water flow—even if it is covered by ice, you should be able to get out of this mountain range by going downstream along the water.
He didn't know why this mountain was called the mountain of death, but no matter how difficult the road ahead was, he must find a way to get out, and he couldn't really give up hope.
Probably it is a brand firmly imprinted in his heart, he seems to never think of giving up, but always looking for a way out to survive, and go on forever.
I am not only responsible for myself, but also responsible for this person on my back.
"Shen Changling... If one day, you find that you can't escape your fate, what should you do?" When there was no words for a long time, the person on the back suddenly asked softly.
Shen Changling was taken aback for a moment, and the hand that was leaning on the cane also stopped.Subconsciously, he thrust the thick branch used as a crutch into the ground, and changed his back to the other hand.
Using the crutch in the other hand to explore the way again, he pressed hard against the ground, and continued to move forward after confirming that it was solid ground.
The wind and snow subsided a lot on this mountain plain, but the air of Xiao Su between the heaven and the earth became more and more icy. As a fallen leaf that persisted on a tree until the last hit it in front of his eyes, Shen Changling watched That fallen leaf, looking at the fallen leaf left and right by the wind and snow.
The so-called fate?But how can a person like him have a destiny?
For some reason, Shen Changling suddenly had an extremely ridiculous illusion. These two words were like some kind of big joke. He wanted to laugh out loud, but he could only hold back, not letting his frozen face He showed a strange expression again.
"Fate? It seems that someone has asked me this question before, but I feel that something like fate seems to be destined and cannot be changed. However, the so-called destiny is just that people are predicted in advance after the results of their hard work. It's all over..." Sighing, he seemed to think for a long time before saying this.
Duan Xuehuai looked at him with eyes open weakly, and put her hands on the other's neck.Those words just now had consumed a lot of his energy, but he suddenly wanted to ask this question.
It's like a stubborn child who can't wait to get an answer even if he is in danger.
"It's like what happened at different points in time on the same timeline. How do you know that the fate you experience is destined to be arranged by God, not the result of your own hard work?" The man turned his head and looked at him deeply, something suddenly appeared in Duan Xuehuai's blurred vision.
That's the scorching temperature in the other person's eyes, that kind of tenderness and strength, the tenacity that can't be broken even by the wind and rain...
That kind of strength defeated the wind and snow, and shone into Duan Xuehuai's heart in the silent and cold snow.
How could this be possible?Duan Xuehuai felt a powerful force in such obviously exhausted eyes, he seemed to see the deepest place in the other person's heart through the hazy sky and blurred spots of light - so contradictory and beautiful...
Yes, indeed.
The word fate has suppressed them for too long, but who has ever told them that fate is not predestined by the sky? It seems that someone has said this to them, right?
However, as the endless time flows forward, they grow up, see too many flowers bloom and fade, and people are impermanent. In a puppet show, everyone is a marionette on the stage, controlled by the word fate.
Then, those former courage seems to have slipped away.The stronger you are, the more you can feel the unpredictability of God's will, the more timid you are, so you have to use masks to disguise yourself, layer after layer...
Duan Xuehuai smiled wryly, but found that at this moment he was so weak that he didn't even have the strength to laugh, and a shocking pain hit him every time he moved, but he smiled, regardless, as if the burden that had been suppressed for a long time suddenly disappeared .
But even the smile that he felt exhausted his whole body was just a slight vibration, not even comparable to the movement caused by his speaking - so weak...
The person under him was still moving forward in the winter snow all over the sky, the hand holding him was already stiff, but it did not waver at all, firmly, like a promise that he would not let go if he grasped it.
In such a desperate snow, there were two people, and only the two of them, a huge storm surged in Duan Xuehuai's heart, overwhelming the sky and covering the earth, so hasty and swift, it just drowned him in the blink of an eye.
He felt the stubborn breathing of the person under him, and walked forward slowly but firmly step by step.The flaming flower in the chest is burning naturally, with a never-ending temperature—in such a dead wasteland, it seems to be the last temperature between heaven and earth.
He was originally just an arm hanging around the other's neck, trembling and hugging it tightly, and his cold hands were placed in the other's soaked skirt, although it was not warm, it was so reassuring.
It is probably a blessing to meet such a person at such a time, so should I seize this gift from heaven?
Duan Xuehuai thought of those secret past events, those...memories that were originally considered unavoidable disasters and shackles.
I thought I should be like this, guarding a side of peace in Litian Palace, until the world is broken and the mountains and rivers are forever silent, and then I gradually die...
However, when she clenched her hands and looked at the person in front of her, she found that she couldn't see clearly, and imprinted a cold kiss behind the other's ear so imperceptibly that Duan Xuehuai didn't even dare to touch it for real. To the other party's skin—even if he knew, the chances of the other party being able to detect it were very small when he was about to freeze to death.
But, don't dare to be abrupt...
However, there was another impulse rushing wildly in his heart, he couldn't restrain his inner feelings, and spoke carefully into Shen Changling's ear.
His strength was already very weak, and he probably needed very quiet conditions to hear clearly, let alone on such a snowy field.
However, his tone was so firm, as if he had exhausted all his strength, and then he yelled out softly, which fell on Shen Changling's ears like thunder, causing a burst of echo.
"Then, I want to tell you..." He heard him speak carefully, like a tiger in his heart, but sniffing a rose.
"If I say I like you one day, it's definitely not because of other things, but because you are you, that's all..."
