Luo Jiujiang suddenly raised his head and stared at Xie Chuncan for a long time, until Xie Chuncan's eyebrows twitched uncomfortably. Then he pondered, "I wonder if anyone has told Brother Xie that you speak with an accent?"
Xie Chuncan was stunned for a moment before he understood what he meant. He immediately laughed angrily and said, "Jiujiang is really not afraid of me at all now."
"I'm not afraid of many things in my life, and Brother Xie is not one of them." Luo Jiujiang smiled slightly, "Even when Brother Xie aimed an arrow and could have shot through my head with just a flick of his finger, I was never afraid of him."
Xie Chuncan unexpectedly raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile, "If you're not afraid of me, do you still want to thank me?"
"I do want to thank you." Luo Jiujiang smiled frankly, "Brother Xie, you helped me escape from the siege and saved me from death at the hands of mediocre people. Even if the tip of Brother Xie's arrow was pointed at my head the next moment, it would be better to die at Brother Xie's arrow than at their hands."
After a pause, Luo Jiujiang teased, "At least others are in charge of slaughtering and eating, but only Brother Xie is in charge of killing and burying."
Xie Chuncan threw his head back and laughed!
After a long pause, he spoke in a tone of interest, "I don't think Jiujiang is someone who would just say thank you with empty words. I wonder if you would be willing to let me kill you as a token of my gratitude?"
"Then Brother Xie, you're dreaming." Luo Jiujiang flicked his finger, and the long sword in his hand, including the scabbard, spun and blossomed in his palm. "There are only Luo Jiujiangs who die in battle due to exhaustion in this world, and there are no Luo Jiujiangs who sit and wait to die. If Brother Xie really wants to do this, why not try drawing your bow?"
"...Forget it. I don't want to see you die of exhaustion now. Besides, I dragged you into this bet with me, so it's not right to ask you for a reward." Xie Chuncan spread his hands out in front of his eyes and looked at them again and again. "Empty thanks will do me justice. If you thank me a few more times, it will be considered as repaying me."
"Oh, then I really have to thank you very much for your kindness." Luo Jiujiang laughed out loud and said warmly in a teasing tone, "Thank you, brother, thank you, brother, thank you!"
Xie Chuncan: “…”
Xie Chuncan was just taking off the water bag from his waist to drink, but he almost spit out the water when he heard him shout "Thank you" three times in a row.
"Are you thanking me? You're telling me to never accept your thanks again in my life." Xie Chuncan sneered, "Please don't thank me anymore, it's almost shortening my life."
"Whether I say thank you or not, it's still Brother Xie." Luo Jiujiang took out the half roasted bird without oil or salt from his arms and took a few bites. "If you ask me, Brother Xie, you should change your name to reflect the poem every time you appear on stage. From now on, I will call you Brother Xie by your first name. That way, we will be closer. Brother Xie's current name is really not very convenient to call."
Xie Chuncan asked with great interest, "Oh? You want me to change my name?"
Luo Jiujiang spat out a piece of bird bone and said seriously, "That's right. As the saying goes, 'The flowers in the forest fade away so quickly.' If Brother Xie changed his name to Xie Chunhong, I could call you Xiaohong from now on. If he changed his name to Chunhua, I could still call you Huahua. Even if he changed his name to Xie Chuncong, I could still call you Dacong or Laocong. But Brother Xie insisted on ending his name with the character 'can'. So no matter how I call him, it sounds like I'm scolding you."
After saying this, Luo Jiujiang dodged quickly to the side. As expected, a strong wind blew past his ears, and for a moment he heard only three "snap, snap, snap" sounds. Three arrows hit the wood. He stole a glance out of the corner of his eye and saw that the white feathered tail of the arrow was still trembling.
Judging from the hardness and toughness of the trees in this area, these three arrows were shot with great force to kill and silence the witnesses.
"Brother Xie, are you going to destroy the body?"
"Brother Xie, you are filled with righteous indignation." Xie Chuncan sneered, "Now I see that you are truly not afraid of me."
Luo Jiujiang laughed heartily. "Brother Xie, you know it's hard to find someone to talk to normally in this damn place. It's so rare that I can meet Brother Xie. When you were chasing me, I thought you were a tough opponent. After the game, we chatted for a few minutes, and I thought of Brother Xie as a special friend. Opponents need to be respected, and friends need to be cherished. How can there be any fear or indifference?"
“…” Xie Chuncan remained silent and stared at Luo Jiujiang for a long time.
"Okay." After a long while, Xie Chuncan slowly spoke, "Because you have the courage to be my friend, I'll let you go. The stakes for this round don't require you to shave your head. Write a few words for me to see. It'll be your stake for losing this round to me."
Luo Jiujiang touched the three thousand strands of trouble that were almost saying goodbye to him, and asked sincerely: "Xie brother, what do you want me to write?"
Judging from Xie Chuncan's expression, he seemed to really want Luo Jiujiang to write something like "Luo Jiujiang is a big bald donkey without balls." But at the very end, his lips moved and he only whispered, "Just write 'Xie Chuncan'."
The author has something to say: Small theater:
Xie Chuncan: "You said friends need to be cherished."
Luo Jiujiang: "Exactly."
Xie Chuncan: "But judging from your behavior, I don't think you cherish me very much."
Luo Jiujiang (sincerely): "It's like this. At certain important moments that affect a man's second half of life, I really wish I had never made a friend like Brother Xie."
Xie Chuncan: “…”
