Small Lingzhi

82 Coexistence

There is no time in the mountains, and Xiao Yan's days of recuperating are also leisurely.

Compared with healing his wounds, he seems to focus on Lingzhi, and is more willing to find ways to restore Lingzhi's flesh, without revealing his traces to the outside world.

Lingzhi hesitated to speak several times, but she didn't say anything.

He wanted to ask Xiao Yan why he didn't let his hidden guards find it here?If Xiao Yan has a plan, once he wakes up, there must be a way to get in touch with the outside world and let those people come to pick them up.

And after the flood blew the dam, the outside affairs should continue to be handled by Xiao Ni, but Xiao Ni didn't seem to be anxious at all.

After being nervous alone, Lingzhi gradually stopped thinking about so many things. Xiao Yan is far smarter than he imagined. This person is thoughtful, and what ordinary people can think or can't think of is not as thorough as his arrangements.

No matter how much Lingzhi thinks about it, judging from the current relationship between him and Xiao Yan, where does he stand to think about these things.

He let go of the confusion lingering in his heart, the cave was empty, and Xiao Yan just went out.

Lingzhi got up and was about to go out to find someone. Xiao Yan came in with a smile on his lips. Looking at him, the smile deepened.

Xiao Yan said: "I walked along a road behind the mountain, and found a water pool inside, maybe I can catch some fish."

Lingzhi said softly: "You are injured, it's better not to run around."

Xiao Yan stood in front of Lingzhi and pulled up his cuffs.

"These injuries have healed more than half, and it's not a problem to walk outside."

He said again: "There is no hunting bow in this cave, and my body can't move freely. It's rare that I have free time. It's a pity that I can't go into the mountain to hunt some game for you to roast."

He sighed: "You can only try your luck. It's better to catch a few fish than none."

The boy behind him didn't move, Xiao Yan turned sideways with a smile on his face.

"Come on, as long as I ask you, can you go with me?"

The summer cicadas in the mountains are very lively, and the treetops are very lively.

After the torrential rain that had lingered in Yuezhou for nearly a month after the earthquake, the clouds and mists cleared up, and the sky cleared up five or six days ago.

The dappled sunlight passed through the verdant treetops, swaying slightly with the pace of Xiao Yan's walking.

Lingzhi's eyes fell on Xiao Yan's fingers that had been holding his cuff. This person didn't use much strength, but if he wanted to, he just had to break free.

Lingzhi's eyes wandered from Xiao Yan's finger to him looking at the back figure walking in front of him. This person seemed to be strolling in a courtyard, walking a kitten along the way.

Xiao Yan took Lingzhi's cuffs and walked to the edge of the pool, letting go of the piece of fabric that was held by her fingers.

"arrive."

Lingzhi came back to her senses, and focused her attention on the pool in front of her. The water quality was so clear that you could see the bottom at a glance, and a few fish were posing and diving not far away.

At this time, Lingzhi was extremely sensitive to water, and once again regretted that she could not soak in water.

With a sleepy expression, he managed to pull himself together, raised his head and said to Xiao Yan, "We don't have hooks and baits."

Xiao Yan smiled without saying a word, walking around to relax and fold a few branches around.

Lingzhi imitated the example, he followed behind Xiao Yan, and followed Xiao Yan's bending movement from the corner of the eye to look intently.

The man rolled up his trouser legs, he was a little anxious: "The injury on your body..."

Xiao Yan said: "No problem."

Seeing that the bottom of the pool was not deep, Lingzhi still hesitated.

"Let me come..."

Xiao Yan moved his hands and feet a little on the water's edge, and after stepping into the water, he smiled at Lingzhi, signaling that he was fine.

Lingzhi squatted on the shore, patronizingly watching Xiao Yan, and encountered a stone or something under the water, and before Xiao Yan stepped on it, she hurriedly gave a warning to prevent Xiao Yan from slipping.

The warm and bright sunlight shone behind Xiao Liang, and Lingzhi stared at the tree branch raised by the other party. When Xiao Liang raised a pole and poked it towards the bottom of the water, he subconsciously held his breath.

Xiao Yan didn't poke the fish with the branch.

He turned his face away and cast his eyes on the boy squatting by the water.

Lingzhi's black eyebrows were curved, and his smile just started. He realized that Xiao Yan had discovered him, and thought it was not good to base his sudden jump of joy on Xiao Yan's failure, so he suppressed the corners of his mouth and eyebrows blushingly, even he himself didn't understand Why did Xiao Yan want to laugh when he didn't poke the fish.

Xiao Yan turned around and walked up to Lingzhi.

"Do you want to come down?"

Lingzhi retracted her knees and shook her head.

Xiao Yan lightly grasped Lingzhi's wrist, his palm was covered with cool water drops, perhaps because of the cold, the snow-white and slender wrist trembled slightly.

A lock of Xiao Yan's black hair fell down, and the wind blew it directly on Lingzhi's face.

Lingzhi raised her hand to push it away, and the nameless clamor in her heart that had been suppressed not long ago resurfaced again.

Xiao Yan seemed to just come back and talk to him face to face, and continued to pick up branches to spear fish.

After a while, Lingzhi stared down at the slightly swaying water waves, and said in a muffled voice, "I'll help."

He took off his shoes and socks and tentatively prepared to step into the water, but Xiao Yan said, "Wait."

Lingzhi was puzzled, Xiao Ni said: "Before entering the water, it is best to exercise your muscles and bones."

He also said: "Use some water to slap your legs. If the water is too cold, you will easily cramp after entering the water."

Lingzhi said "Oh", and Yubai raised and lowered his feet, kicking and tapping repeatedly.

Xiao Yan couldn't help laughing, Lingzhi's ears were slightly hot, and she refused to move no matter what she said.

He wanted to bend down to take some water with his hands, but Xiao Yan walked up to him and said, "You can't be perfunctory, if you don't move your hands and feet enough, you will be the one who suffers when you get into the water."

Lingzhi wanted to say that the water is shallow and not in the way, so Xiao Yan raised some water in his palm and patted Lingzhi's calf lightly, and said while patting, "Look at how perfunctory I was when I was exercising my muscles and bones just now."

Lingzhi thought about it and shook her head.

But he looked at Xiao Yan and retorted softly: "But I didn't laugh at you."

Xiao Yan said: "I am not laughing at you."

After a pause: "I just saw your cute actions, and I'm very happy."

Lingzhi didn't "oh" or nod at this moment, he took two small steps back and kicked indiscriminately, feeling that it was enough, picked up the branch and ran to the other side to enter the water.

The depth of the water was only up to the calf, and he walked around to make sure there was nothing to fear, so he turned his back, his ears turned red under the sunlight, and he urged: "Go to the other side quickly, the fish will all run away. "

Xiao Yan looked at the two red ears that had nowhere to escape under the sun, overflowing with tenderness, but at this moment reserved a decent tolerance for Lingzhi.

He said something more, and swallowed the words on the edge of his mouth, fearing that Lingzhi would run back into the cave and ignore him.

The Golden Crow was about to hang in the air, Xiao Yan let Lingzhi go ashore, and he caught four fish, Lingzhi's expression flashed a bit unwilling and discouraged, and he walked back to the shore and sat down resentfully, holding an empty tree branch.

Xiao Yan picked up some firewood and sweet and sour berries from nearby, and the two of them sat cross-legged by the water and raised the fire to grill fish.

Xiao Yan turned the fish body, smeared the fruit pulp, and asked Lingzhi whether the taste should be more sour or sweeter.

Lingzhi wondered about something for a long time, her lips moved, and finally couldn't help asking: "Xiao Yan, why do you know everything?"

Xiao Yan's status is noble and prosperous, so he should be good at these mundane things, but he is clearly able to do it with ease, like an expert who lives in seclusion in the world and is indifferent.

After he finished asking, he immediately regretted it. It's okay to be curious about other people's private affairs, but it's extremely unreasonable to ask rashly.

With a smile on the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth, he looked at him and said, "Sweet for you?"

There was no sign of anger at all, his eyes flashed, and he sighed.

"I am from Xizhou. The war in Xizhou was over when I was born. After the war, the people of Xizhou had no means of living for ten years. When I was not adopted by Master, I was almost sold as a slave in various places in Xizhou. At that time, I did everything in order to survive Learning, these small tricks are just a little skill for survival."

Lingzhi let out an "ah" and suddenly didn't know how to answer.

Seeing that he was at a loss, Xiao Yan shook his head and said: "There is no need to show mercy. People who have lived from the Xizhou before and after the war to today and made a difference are definitely not good people."

He smiled, as if testing Lingzhi's attitude, and said: "Don't underestimate young children, often young children are the easiest to let people let go of their guard, and give a fatal blow when they are not prepared."

Xiao Yan's hands have been unclean since he was a child. He is intelligent and forbearing, good at disguising, with a gentle face and a shy heart. After being adopted by his master, he slowly regained his character.

Human nature is inherently good. For Xiao Yan, he sometimes suspects that he is born with an evil seed.

Although there was always a smile on the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth, his eyes were locked on Lingzhi's face. Seeing that Lingzhi didn't show disgust after listening, his heart dropped slightly.

He has done all the evil things, no matter how bad he is, he can't go anywhere.

Once he was an official, the ministers criticized him verbally and in writing, and it was difficult to speak.Even the little emperor who helped him up with one hand feared him and wanted to take power from his chess game, but the people sang praises to him. The decision he made after weighing the pros and cons became a good thing that the people talked about and wrote in the book.

What is the difference between good and evil?

Xiao Yan has not been able to give a specific definition so far, but how about the decisions he made without any selfishness, and with a mind of fearless dedication?Master's way has already given him enough beatings.

Therefore, even with Lingzhi, he was sincere and extremely selfish, never thinking of letting him go.

So there will always be a day when Lingzhi will see his evil.

The summer is fine, and the rest of his life after the catastrophe, at such an ordinary moment, with his body wounded, he sits with Lingzhi sitting by the river grilling fish and chatting, telling Lingzhi what kind of person he is in a relaxed and comfortable way.

Lingzhi took a bite of Xiao Yan's cold grilled fish, the sweet and sour berry juice diluted the taste of the fish, and chewed it a little smooth.

He ate a few more mouthfuls, and after hearing so many words from Xiao Yan, it was unreasonable for him not to respond.

Lingzhi nodded very simply, did not judge Xiao Yan's behavior, and was even a little envious.

Xiao Yan lives a firmer and more sober life than many people, unlike him, he is just a Ganoderma lucidum that muddles along and lives in troubled waters.

Xiao Yan grilled four fish, Lingzhi ate half of them, and one and a half went into Xiao Yan's stomach.

For the remaining two, Xiao Yan wrapped them in leaves, and Lingzhi took the wrapped grilled fish back to the cave in her arms, and kept them for supper at night.

Xiao Yan wiped himself with water, but couldn't reach behind him, so he called Lingzhi in a low voice to help him.

Without a cloth towel, Lingzhi patted Xiao Yan's shoulders with clear water in his palms, his focused eyes gradually wandered, and the force of the pats became lighter and lighter.

Xiao Yan asked hoarsely, "What's wrong?"

Lingzhi babbled and scrubbed harder.

He looked at Xiao Yan's broad shoulders, narrow waist and abdomen, and his tightly clenched hands were hot from rubbing.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to rest for a while, Xiao Yan suddenly fell in front of Xiao Yan from the corner of his eyes when he dodged. He saw that the fabric under the clothes was arched like a stone bridge pillar, and his hands shook.

Xiao Yan looked sideways, Lingzhi stopped rubbing his back, and hurried to the side.

Lingzhi stared at the hot and red fingers, thinking that fortunately he didn't touch them randomly just now.

All normal men would do this, even himself.

He was confused and his mind was buzzing.

Xiao Yan smiled helplessly: "I can't control this, no wonder me."
