Qi Yang looked up at Ling'er in embarrassment, and then realized that Ling'er was standing very close to him, so close that he could smell the fragrance of flowers on Ling'er. And he couldn't escape by leaning on the stone wall.
He suddenly felt at a loss and was so nervous that his heart was beating wildly.
"What's wrong with you?" Ling'er asked with concern, noticing that Brother Yang was breathing more seriously.
"Girl..." Qi Yang originally wanted to remind Ling'er that the two of them were too close, but he soon discovered that although the place they were in seemed more open than elsewhere, it was actually less than three feet square. If Ling'er takes a step back at this time, he may be in danger of falling. Therefore, Qi Yang quickly stopped talking.
"Huh?" Ling'er was puzzled. Seeing the cold sweat on Brother Yang's forehead, she quickly took out her silk handkerchief.
Qi Yang had no choice but to turn his head towards the steep slope to relieve the embarrassment.
Ling'er's movements were light and gentle, but this made Qi Yang even more out of breath. He said in a deep voice: "Since the girl's foot injury is fine, let's continue on the road!"
"Still climbing a steep slope?" Ling'er was unwilling and asked him, "Even if we want to avoid the pursuers, we don't have to take such a difficult road, right? Obviously you...you and I both have injured legs and feet."
Hearing this, Qi Yang lowered his eyes and blamed himself: "This is all my fault. If it weren't for my poor legs and feet, I could have just used Qinggong to bring the girl up the steep slope..."
"No! It's not your fault!" Ling'er quickly put her fingers on Brother Yang's bloodless lips to stop him from blaming herself. Ling'er explained: "I just think we can try to find other ways to go up the mountain."
Qi Yang gently removed Ling'er's fingers and said truthfully: "I have studied the terrain here, and this is the only place where you can go up the mountain without leaving any trace."
"No trace?" Linger was confused.
"Look, girl, this slope is so steep that it cannot be covered with snow. If we walk on it, we won't leave any footprints." Qi Yang raised his hand and pointed to the steep slope.
Ling'er took a look and realized it was true! There were indeed no traces left on the stones they had trod upon.
"In the final analysis, I still have to blame me. I should have taken the girl up the mountain like Liu Shaoxia and the others, which is easy and will not leave any clues. It's a pity that I have internal strength..." This time it was Qi Yang who stopped mid-sentence. He realized that he said something he shouldn't have said, fearing that he would make Ling'er worry again.
Ling'er was worried, but even more distressed. She had always known that Brother Yang was weak internally, but hearing Brother Yang say so himself, she still felt pity for him in her heart. Brother Yang is such a strong person, but he has to show his weak side to others.
"I said it's not your fault!" Ling'er said softly, her eyes red with heartache, "You've done a great job! I know how serious your injuries are, and how painful your knees are! I know it all!”
Qi Yang was moved in his heart, lowered his eyes and whispered: "I'm fine."
"I know you are not afraid of pain! I know you can climb to the top of a steep slope like this! I know you can hold on! But I...but I feel bad!" Ling'er snuggled into Brother Yang's arms with tears in her eyes.
Qi Yang's heart was deeply touched. Except for Ling'er, no one had ever cared about him so much.
