"So you saved me?" Xu Jinxin took another sip of Shu Mo, which Li Yi said was not very authentic, but did not look at Li Yi.
"I just think you should live and you must live."
Xu Jinxin laughed loudly, and tears seemed to flow from his eyes.
Who knows what he feels like in his heart. I can't help but think, probably, only God knows.
I think it's time to taste failure, otherwise it would be too boring if everything goes smoothly.
"When I was traveling in the South, I met a man who was very interesting."
Li Yi looked at him and asked. "How is this interesting? The story of the affair between the brother-in-law and the sister-in-law is the most popular story in the world. If so, I am all ears."
Xu Jinxin rarely smiled bitterly. Thinking about it, I wonder when Li Yi became sharp-tongued. he said. "His name is Sun Hanqi, a native of Yining in Northeast China. He originally came to the south to look for weapons with the person he likes, but an accident happened on the way."
"Accident?"
Xu Jinxin smiled. "Actually, that woman's heart belongs to her. Do you know that her heart belongs to her?"
Li Yi nodded. "Know."
"How did he know that this was a trap set by the woman. The purpose was to separate from him forever. It was not a big deal, but you know the result, he died."
"died?"
"That's right. He was betrayed by the person he trusted the most, but he volunteered to be killed."
Li Yi asked. "That person you were talking about when you ruined your life that day?"
"That's right!" Xu Jinxin smiled and said again. "I could have saved him, but he still died. Do you know why?"
"Why?"
"He said that that person was the most trusted person in his life. Since that person asked him to die, he would die. The reason was that he would not regret it if he buried his love in the past. So I agreed."
Xu Jinxin said calmly.
Li Yi was a little depressed. He said that he didn't understand such nonsense. Maybe the death of the guy named Sun Hanqi was tragic and affectionate, but so what!
If you die, will the person who asked you to die feel a little sad for you, or burst into tears or something? Come to think of it, probably not!
"So the woman wants him to die, so he thinks he should sacrifice himself to help others? It sounds great, but it's just great."
Xu Jinxin shook his head and said. "He just felt like she was everything to him."
Li Yi smiled and felt that this man was really inexplicable.
"This friend of yours is really incomprehensible. It's called dying for love, but in fact it's so stupid."
"Yes! But that's how it is when you like someone. They always like to be inexplicable. Even if they are stupid, I am no exception." Xu Jinxin said.
His eyes were full of sadness, like a thousand-year cold pool. It's hard to imagine how sad he must be to be so depressed.
Li Yi thought of the story he heard in Pengzhou City, which was about a boy and a girl who met and fell in love under a peach blossom tree, hence the name Peach Blossom.
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but laugh.
That boy was really stupid.
He looked at Xu Jinxin's back. Xu Jinxin walked over there, raised his head and took a sip of the Shu Mo he gave him.
He just looked at Xu Jinxin, who ignored him and just murmured to himself. "It's been more than two years since Zongheng, it's time to take a rest. Brother Deng, the number one person in Xi Chu's generation, it's your turn to shoulder the responsibility. To be number one on the Langya list is both your and my wish."
He raised the wine in his hand and was about to pour it into the river, but suddenly he felt that the wine was expensive, so he took it back.
Li Yi asked with a smile over there. "Brother Xu, what are you talking about?"
Xu Jinxin raised the wine bottle in his hand. "Raise your glass to the God of the Sea, and hope you have a smooth journey."
Li Yi took the wine bottle thrown by Xu Jinxin, took a sip and said. "This wine is very expensive. If I go to southern Xinjiang, I'm afraid I'll have to exchange it for the burning knife."
"It doesn't matter. I don't drink much. The so-called drinking to relieve my worries is just to raise a glass casually and show it to others."
He said, walking towards the cabin.
Li Yi asked. "What are you doing?"
"Don't worry, I'm not going back to hang my neck. I just want to ask the boatman for a pole to pass the time. In short, I feel like eating fish."
Soon, he walked out of the cabin again with two more fishing rods in his hands.
He handed one of them to Li Yi, skillfully hung up the bait and swung the pole into the water.
Li Yi touched his nose and looked at the pole Xu Jinxin handed him, feeling a little embarrassed.
To be honest, he had been to the south and had seen big rivers, but he had never really fished, so he was a little at a loss for the moment.
But their boat kept going down, and fishing in such a hurry was really unprecedented.
Come to think of it, it's just as he said, the so-called fishing is nothing more than a show to show to others!
Li Yi didn't bother to think about whether he could really catch a big fish. He followed Xu Jinxin's example and threw the fishhook into the water.
At this time, Jiang Yu and Nangong Zhenyi walked out of the cabin. Seeing them like this, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Yu came over and knocked on Li Yi's shoulder and said. "It seems like you're not very good at fishing. Li Wenqing, how about you let me give it a try?"
Li Yi turned to look at Jiang Yu, thought for a while, and finally handed over the fishing rod.
Jiang Yu said he was righteous, but in fact he had never caught a fish before, so he made himself blush and almost tripped over.
Xu Jinxin looked at Nangong Zhenyi, smiled, put the fishing rod into her hand, stretched lazily, and walked towards the cabin.
Li Yi asked. "No more fishing?"
"Let's get you some food."
Soon after, he brought a charcoal-burning brazier from the cabin.
They found a lot of iron tags from the boatman and brought them over. After a while of busy work, he and Li Yi finally put a few fish caught in the bucket on the fire rack.
Nangong Zhenyi was not in the mood for fishing, but stood at the railing and looked at Xu Jinxin and asked. "You can do this too?"
Xu Jinxin didn't look at her, just stirred the iron picks and said. "I learned it from a friend before. It's not perfect, but it's edible."
"Yeah!" Nangong Zhenyi responded.
Xu Jinxin asked again. "Why did you follow me?"
This question is somewhat confusing to answer, just like asking why you eat.
Nangong Zhenyi thought for a while and considered his answer. "The scenery in the south is beautiful. You shouldn't miss it when you go out to experience it. Is this a valid reason?"
This is a rhetorical statement, but it sounds flawless.
"Um!"
But Xu Jinxin nodded and stopped talking.
Soon after, Xu Jinxin handed the grilled fish to Nangong Zhenyi. said. "Want to try it?"
Nangong Zhenyi took it, but was a little at a loss.
Xu Jinxin smiled. "Afraid I'll poison you? If you don't want to eat, give it to them."
"without thanks."
Xu Jinxin turned his head again and stopped looking at her.
Nangong Zhenyi gave the remaining bunches to Jiang Yu and Li Yi, and took a small taste himself.
But he was stunned for a moment.
It's not that she has never tasted this taste before. It's not exactly the same, but it really looks like the craftsmanship of senior fellow apprentice Deng Shilin.
Jiang Yu patted her back and asked. "What's wrong? Can't you eat?"
"No, I just think of a person. This smell is so similar to his craftsmanship."
"Is that person Deng Shilin?" Xu Jinxin said.
"How did you know it was Senior Brother Deng Shilin?"
"I met him once. He taught me how to bake. I'm lucky enough to know a little bit about it."
Nangong Zhenyi suddenly realized that he had seen senior brother Deng Shilin when he came down the mountain.
But after going up the mountain, Senior Brother Deng Shilin concentrated on the chess game and would never go down the mountain unless he could break the chess game played by his uncle.
It took a few people to put away the fishing rods and brazier, and then a light rain began to fall from the sky.
Several people walked towards the cabin one after another. After arriving at the cabin, Nangong Zhenyi turned around and looked. In his eyes, Xu Jinxin was standing at the hatch of the cabin looking out, his back reflected in the rain curtain, which was indescribably desolate. After all, he felt a little more lonely. Lonely.
She didn't understand how the girl could bear to lie to such a good man.
In fact, she just lied. She didn't come to the South because of the southern scenery, but because of him, she traveled thousands of miles to come here.
In fact, she originally wanted to go north.
Xu Jinxin stretched out his hand outside and let the rain wash away, as if he wanted to wash away those pitiful and ridiculous memories.
Nangong Zhenyi didn't say anything, just stood not far behind him and watched.
Just looking at it made me feel a little more at ease.
When Jiang Yu was about to pull her, she made a silent movement. "Be careful, you disturb him."
Jiang Yu nodded and left on his own.
Xu Jinxin suddenly turned around, and when he saw her, she was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do, but she still calmed down in the panic, took off a wine bottle and handed it over. "Can you drink?"
Xu Jinxin nodded.
Nangong Zhenyi smiled and said. "I saw you and Li Yi drinking together before, so I brought this over. I bought this from Wuyou in the northern town. I gave it to you."
Xu Jinxin looked into her eyes and said. "You give alcohol to a patient? Are you afraid of being scolded if you tell me?"
Nangong Zhenyi spread his hands. "Anyway, I don't know how to drink it myself, so I'll treat it as something prepared for you in advance."
"Thank you." Xu Jinxin said, hanging the wine bottle on his waist, and walked towards his room. "I'm feeling sick all over my body. I need to take a nap first. If I get to Australopithecus Gorge, can I call out?"
"Okay!" Nangong Zhenyi responded, looking at his back. He was dressed in white, tall and thin, and his body was still a bit frail.
Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that he has nothing now, but he is really good-looking, and even senior brother Deng Shilin, who is loved by thousands of people, cannot compare to him.
In the middle of the night, Li Yi sat on the bed and closed his eyes. The spiritual energy around his body was activated by him and slowly circulated around him.
He felt a little uneasy.
In fact, all the way north and all the way back, he had no intention of getting stronger, but now, he was so desperate.
Maybe it was because the south was more dangerous, or maybe he wanted to protect Xu Jinxin, who was now powerless.
But he had damaged his heart when he destroyed his luck, so he was really helpless.
They arrived at the bottom of the canyon called Ape Canyon, and several people walked out of the cabin.
When I looked up, I saw chirping apes climbing on the walls of the surrounding canyon. The apes moved up and down. But no matter what, everyone was staring at their boat, as if they had really delicious food on board.
Li Yi and Jiang Yu stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the spout in front of them, feeling a little uneasy for some reason.
"What's wrong?" Nangong Zhenyi asked.
"No, it's just in a place like this that I feel a little more nervous. I didn't understand it before, but now that I think about it, I just can't let go."
"Relax, someone has lived here before, nothing will happen."
Nangong Zhenyi was not talking nonsense. She had heard Senior Brother Deng Shilin talk about this place.
Years ago, it was said that there lived a certain reclusive master who liked to tease these apes when he had nothing to do. Later, this expert was invited to work in the court. So far. No one cares about this group of apes.
Later, there were reports that apes robbed the fleets that passed here when they docked.
Over time, the term "Ape Tribulation" came to be known on this river.
"Yeah!" Jiang Yu responded.
Nangong Zhenyi nodded. "Okay, I'll go over there. He, I'm really worried about him."
Jiang Yu nodded. "good."
Nangong Zhenyi walked behind him.
Jiang Yu looked away, looked at Li Yi, and said. "Do you believe Sister Nangong's statement?"
Li Yi looked at her and shrugged. "Apes are always like this. Once you reach the shore, they will naturally come to grab some food."
"That's right." Jiang Yu nodded. "It is said that the expert set up many barriers in this area back then, and no one could enter at all."
"Are you curious? Why don't we go over and take a look?"
Jiang Yu rolled his eyes at him and said. "You are not afraid of being robbed by those apes. Don't come back naked when the time comes. It will be embarrassing."
"You don't believe me so much?"
"Um!"
"That's all! I'll spread my mind and bypass them."
Jiang Yu smiled and said. "It's not that I don't believe you, I just don't believe in these apes. I was robbed once when I was a child. As you said, they have always been annoying."
Li Yi seemed to be interested and asked. "Then did you cry at that time?"
Jiang Yu looked at him, his eyes couldn't hide anything, as if he was trying to figure out how to laugh at being played by a monkey and then burst into tears.
Jiang Yu kicked him in the leg and said. "It happened many years ago. Who still remembers whether I cried or not?"
"It's boring. I thought, with your temperament, you must have begged grandpa to sue grandma!"
Jiang Yu rolled his eyes at him again.
He quickly waved his hand. "I'm just talking nonsense, there's no one who's angry, right?"
Jiang Yu smiled and said. "Leave aside those apes, you are not afraid of being pierced through the heart by a bamboo stick. Back then, you were not afraid of losing your life when the expert was there, but it is different now. The expert is not here, and there is no one to be stabbed. save."
Li Yi spread his hands. "It seems that if you want to go up and see it, you have to wait until next time. It's really a pity, that's all! It's not necessary to see it."
At this moment, footsteps came from behind.
Jiang Yu and Li Yi turned to look.
Nangong Zhenyi and Xu Jinxin stood not far behind.
Two people stood side by side, one dressed in white and the other in a green blouse.
Xu Jinxin is tall, almost half a head taller than Nangong Zhenyi. But in terms of appearance. The two people stand together, but they are a perfect match.
