Pei Chenshuo's lips curled into a smile. He had long known that Si Muran was eccentric, so he was used to it. He had no energy left in his body and was barely conscious. However, he could still feel Si Muran's determination.
Her petite body struggled to carry him as she walked in the rainy night. The road under her feet was not clear at all.
"I didn't send people to kill you that day. It really wasn't me. Concubine Ning wanted to kill you. Believe me, I never wanted you to die.”Even though Pei Chenshuo was weak, he did not forget to explain what happened in the ruined temple to her.
Si Muran's heart skipped a beat." I believe you. You're very weak now. Stop talking."”
Si Muran's answer was very straightforward. She believed Pei Chenshuo's words when he said that it was not him, but it was baffling.
"Tian Xuan is a traitor of the Void Tranquil Sect. He is a scheming man. He faked his death and lied to you to win your trust. This person is very dangerous. If you meet him in the future, you must be careful. Don't be deceived by him again, understand?”
Pei Chenshuo acted as if he would never have the chance to tell her about it in the future. He was hoping that Si Muran would not get too close to Tianxuan. Pei Chenshuo wanted Si Muran to know what kind of person Tianxuan was.
Si Muran remembered Tianxuan's fake death, Tianxuan's false accusation of Pei Chenshuo colluding with Xuning Sect, and how he had killed Xuning Sect's teaching elder and destroyed their branch.
However, Si Muran recalled the days when Tian Xuan had brought her away. That period of time had given her a good impression of Tian Xuan. If she could meet Tian Xuan again, she would definitely confront him and ask him why he was doing this.
"Stop nagging. Do you know that it's very tiring for me to carry you, but you keep talking? If you say anything else, I'll leave you here." Si Muran said in a threatening tone.
Pei Chenshuo only smiled and did not say anything else, but he could not hold on any longer and fainted.
Hearing Pei Chenshuo suddenly become quiet, Si Muran suddenly felt a trace of fear in her heart. "Pei Chenshuo, Pei Chenshuo." Si Muran tried to call out to him, but there was no response.
Si Muran gritted her teeth and quickened her pace. She realized that she had already walked into a forest. The rain had lessened a lot, and the lightning in the night was lighting up the road ahead.
Si Muran opened her eyes wide and looked around. She found a sunken stone wall that looked like a shallow cave. Si Muran helped Pei Chenshuo in.
After settling Pei Chenshuo down, Si Muran looked at the forest in front of her under the light of the lightning. The forest was lush and boundless. In order to avoid the pursuers, Si Muran prepared to set up traps in a safe area.
After searching through the Encyclopedia in her mind, Si Muran could only choose to set up those simple traps. As she was too weak, Si Muran didn't know if the trap she set up would work.
As it turned out, Si Muran couldn't confirm if her trap had succeeded. Si Muran heaved a sigh of relief as she waited for quite a while but didn't see any pursuers. The forest was dense and it was difficult to find any clues because of the rain.
Knowing that she was safe, Si Muran was relieved. The rain had stopped after midnight, but Si Muran was shivering from the cold.
He thought to himself that he had already shaken off the pursuers. The path they would take in the future was still unknown. He could not let himself fall sick at this time. Si Muran imitated the ancient method of starting a fire by drilling wood. She found a piece of dry wood around the stone wall and dry wood that had not been soaked by the rain and started to start a fire very seriously.
After failing for the fifty-eighth time, Pei Chenshuo woke up from the creaking sound. When he opened his eyes, he saw Si Muran starting her fifty-ninth attempt.
"What are you doing?" Pei Chenshuo asked curiously as he watched Si Muran use the two stones to knock against each other, making a squeaking sound.
Si Muran's patience was running out.""I'm making a fire." Si Muran suddenly stopped what she was doing and threw the two stones to the side.""I'm so angry. It's all a lie.”
Pei Chenshuo was shocked by Si Muran's tantrum. He took out something from his pocket and handed it over.""Can't you just use a lighter? Why are you angry?”
Si Muran stared at the lighter in Pei Chenshuo's hand and her anger grew. She jumped up and pointed at the lighter in Pei Chenshuo's hand."Why didn't you say so earlier that you had a lighter? My hands are about to get blisters. You did it on purpose!"
Pei Chenshuo was confused." I asked you when I woke up."”
Si Muran sat on the ground and picked up the lighter in Pei Chenshuo's hand. She said aggrievedly,""Couldn't you have woken up earlier? If you woke up during my first experiment, would I be so angry?”
Pei Chenshuo was rendered speechless by her words. After all, she was the one who saved him today. He could not refute her and could only let Si Muran throw a tantrum at him.
Si Muran lit a bonfire amidst her complaints. The light that gradually lit up shone on Si Muran's grumbling little face, making her look extremely adorable.
"Alright, don't be angry. Come and sit here." Pei Chenshuo said as he moved to another place.
The stone wall was not deep. Si Muran was sitting on the outermost side. Pei Chenshuo could see the water dripping onto her body.
Si Muran knew Pei Chenshuo's intentions and did not reject him. She walked towards him.
After sitting down, Si Muran felt that she was too close to Pei Chenshuo. She wanted to move away but was suddenly stopped by Pei Chenshuo,""I'm a little cold. Come closer.”
Si Muran wanted to say that they were already close enough, but before she could say anything, a pair of arms suddenly wrapped around her waist and pulled her into an embrace.
Si Muran gritted her teeth. Pei Chenshuo was taking advantage of her. Si Muran was about to curse when she felt Pei Chenshuo's body trembling slightly.
Si Muran remembered that she had carried Pei Chenshuo on her back on a rainy night, but Pei Chenshuo had shielded her from the rain. At the very least, her back was dry, while Pei Chenshuo's entire body was drenched.
Si Muran's hands unconsciously wrapped around Pei Chenshuo's waist to give her some warmth, but Pei Chenshuo realized it and hugged her even tighter.
"Why did you save me?" Pei Chenshuo felt that the cold in his body had dissipated a lot, and his body was no longer trembling.
Si Muran was about to fall asleep when she heard Pei Chenshuo whisper into her ear in a daze. Si Muran replied without thinking,""I don't want you to die. I want you to live well. Although I hate you."
The first sentence made Pei Chenshuo's heart burst with joy, but the second sentence made him feel as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him. "Why do you hate me?" Pei Chenshuo asked.”
Si Muran was still in a daze.""Because you used me, I hate you. I hate you to death.”Si Muran did not forget to hit Pei Chenshuo as she spoke.
Pei Chenshuo grabbed Si Muran's hand and held it tightly, but his heart felt like it was blocked by something. It turned out that she already knew that he wanted to marry her to find the whereabouts of the Heavenly Works Canon.
But was that really the case? Pei Chenshuo was a little dazed. Did he really want to marry her just for the Heavenly Works Canon or was it just an excuse?
Si Muran seemed to have fallen asleep in his arms. Her shallow breathing was very even. Si Muran was especially gentle when she was quiet. Pei Chenshuo lowered his head and looked at her with a faint smile on his lips.
"I'm sorry." Pei Chenshuo's soft voice was directed at Si Muran, who was fast asleep.
Si Muran whimpered and burrowed into Pei Chenshuo's arms. Pei Chenshuo smiled gently. The eastern horizon gradually revealed its white color. Pei Chenshuo hugged Si Muran and fell asleep.
When Si Muran woke up, she saw that the sky was already bright. The bonfire seemed to have been extinguished for some time, leaving only a faint white smoke floating in the air.
Si Muran did not disturb Pei Chenshuo. Seeing that his face was still a little pale, Si Muran wanted him to rest for a while.
Rumbling sounds came from his stomach, and his five internal organs began to become restless. Si Muran rubbed her flat stomach, thinking that they still had to continue their escape journey and couldn't starve to death. Si Muran planned to look around, hoping to find something to fill her stomach.
Si Muran walked around and found a fruit tree full of fruits. The red fruit was especially lovable, but the tree was too tall.
Si Muran walked around the tree and looked at the red fruits anxiously. However, there were no branches or trees around. Si Muran thought about it and picked up a stone on the ground, preparing to smash the fruit with it.
When Pei Chenshuo chased after her, he saw Si Muran throwing stones under a tall fruit tree. She was jumping and jumping, but not a single fruit fell.
Si Muran was so angry that she kicked the fruit tree hard. The fruit tree didn't budge, but she hugged her leg and cried out in pain. Pei Chenshuo couldn't stand it anymore. He picked up a stone from the ground and threw it with his internal energy. A branch covered in fruits fell with a crack.
Si Muran thought that it was the result of her kick. She was proud of her invincible leg when she saw Pei Chenshuo walk over and pick up the wild fruit on the ground. He wiped it and put it into his mouth to take a bite.
Si Muran walked over and Pei Chenshuo handed the fruit to her.""Try it. It tastes good."
Si Muran's eyes lit up as she took the fruit from Pei Chenshuo and took a big bite. The moment Si Muran bit down, Pei Chenshuo spat out the bite he had taken.
"It's just a little sour." Pei Chenshuo added.
Then, she saw Si Muran's face contort and spit out the wild fruit she had bitten. Si Muran felt her nerves swell.
"Pei Chenshuo, you lied to me, you bastard.”Si Muran threw down the wild fruit in her hand and glared at Pei Chenshuo.
"I told you, it's just a little sour.”Pei Chenshuo looked very innocent.
"Damn it, it's more than just a little sour.”Si Muran cursed and the slogan of Lao Tan's pickled cabbage beef noodles suddenly flashed in her mind. This sour feeling…was simply unbelievable.
Pei Chenshuo could not help but laugh out loud. He had been trying his best to suppress the sourness and pretend to be delicious. He did not expect that silly girl, Si Muran, to fall for it.
"Pei Chenshuo!" Si Muran roared like a furious lion!# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:111420184: 24PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 55PM #
