Chapter 112 Farewell and Returning Home
The orcs' regenerative abilities are truly astonishing.
Since waking up, the night wind has been recovering at an astonishing speed.
Just as Qingji had said, the orcs could recover as long as they had a breath left...
Moreover, with the support of relatively professional doctors and the hospital, Ye Feng has recovered very well.
About half a month later...
Once the wound had completely healed, Ye Feng was finally able to be discharged from the hospital.
The sun was shining brightly that day.
Su Yun packed her things, extended her hand to Ye Feng, and said with a light laugh, "Let's go, Ye Feng, let's go home!"
Night Breeze nodded and smiled at her.
In the sunlight, his golden eyes shone with anticipation. He reached out and firmly grasped Su Yun's hand. "Okay, let's go home together."
Although one of them looked exhausted and the other pale and sickly, their expressions betrayed their undisguised joy.
Su Yun gripped the outstretched hand and nodded. "Okay! Let's go home!"
Finally, after being away from home for more than half a month, they are finally going home.
Upon hearing the news that the two were leaving, Qingji, who rushed over to say goodbye, was still somewhat surprised. "Are you going back so soon? Why not wait a little longer or spend the winter in the city?"
Su Yun smiled and shook her head, refusing: "It's almost the New Year. If I don't go back now, it might be even harder to get back after it snows in a few days..."
Looking at the two who seemed a little tired, Qingji couldn't help but worry: "The mountains are high and the roads are long, why don't you stay in the city for the winter?"
Su Yun shook her head: "But this is not home, and... we can't trouble you anymore..."
Su Yun shook her head and declined the other party's offer.
In the post-apocalyptic world, resources are extremely scarce. A single surgery can cost a fortune, not to mention the continuous medical expenses incurred over the past few days.
The funds in their account had long been depleted, and it was unknown how much Qingji had advanced for them.
Not only did he use his connections to find many excellent doctors to come and examine Ye Feng, but he also visited Ye Feng's condition every few days.
Everyone is desperately hoarding supplies to survive, and it will take even more time and effort to get through the winter.
They can't have two people dragging Qingji down alone.
not to mention......
"But—" Qingji wanted to say something more.
Looking at the aloof and beautiful policewoman in front of him, he showed a rare expression of concern and tenderness.
Su Yun smiled and shook her head, saying, "Thank you, Qingji. We know how kind you are, but... we really have to go... we can't trouble you any further... also, there are people waiting for us at home! Winter supplies and everything we need are all prepared there... it will be better for us to spend the winter back home..."
The family prepared food for the winter well in advance... and there's also Little Feather, that silly kid, who hasn't been home for over ten days, he must be worried sick, I wonder if he's doing alright at home...
Qingji looked at the two exhausted people, her eyes still filled with worry.
Night Wind knew what she was worried about. He took Su Yun's hand and whispered to Qing Ji, "Don't worry, we will come back..." This was both reassurance and a promise.
Seeing their resolute attitude, Qingji lowered her eyes and remained silent. After a few seconds, she sighed softly, forced a smile, and said gently, "Then I wish you a safe and smooth journey!"
Seeing the sincerity and well wishes in the other person's eyes.
Su Yun smiled and said, "We will. Thank you for taking care of us. See you next year."
Qingji smiled, her eyes crinkling, "See you next year."
It's very cold.
The old, worn-out little motorcycle chugged off onto the road once again.
The grass by the roadside was covered in frost, which melted into water when the sun came out. The grass was damp with moisture, making it feel even colder.
Su Yun laid a thick blanket in the carriage, and then prepared pillows and blankets, making everything soft and cozy.
Ye Feng was completely wrapped in a thick blanket, as if he were buried in a pile of blankets, with only his eyes showing.
This made him feel a little uncomfortable. He tried to stick his head and hands out, "Huff, it's so stuffy."
Before her hand could even come out, Su Yun pressed it back down. "Don't reach out, you'll catch a cold."
"But it's too hot inside." Because she was worried about the bumpy ride and the night wind, Su Yun found a thick and warm blanket.
The night breeze soon made me sweat profusely.
"That won't work either. You can sit up a little, but make sure your hands and feet are properly tucked in. It wouldn't be good if you caught a cold." Su Yun pulled the blanket up higher and tucked the corners in.
The night breeze still wanted to struggle out and get some fresh air.
Su Yun held him down again, frowning as she said, "Don't move around. It'll get cold once the car starts moving... If you're tired, just sleep in the car, and I'll drive."
Seeing Su Yun's worried expression, Ye Feng only slowly opened the gap a little to let in some air, and didn't reach out any further. He obediently replied, "Okay."
Perhaps because of her illness, her ears drooped softly, and her voice sounded tired and childish. Looking at her soft and obedient appearance, Su Yun felt a little soft-hearted. She kissed her forehead and said, "You can get some fresh air. Just remember to bring it back in if you get cold later."
"Um."
The car started—
Because Ye Feng was still very weak, Su Yun drove very slowly and steadily the whole way.
We traveled at a leisurely pace, setting off during the day and seeking safe havens to rest as soon as night fell.
After driving on and off for a while, we finally arrived near home on the sixth day.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed across the sky, rushing straight toward them at top speed.
At first, Su Yun was a little nervous, but after seeing the familiar wings, she waved with relief and greeted them, "Little Feather! Little Feather! We're here! We're back!"
Hearing her call, the figure flew even faster, like a falling grenade, and in a flash, it rushed to the front of the dilapidated little motorcycle—
Su Yun slammed on the brakes with a "screech," looked at the little feather in front of him, and said, "Why did you stop in front of me? It's very dangerous if you can't stop in time, don't you understand?"
Little Feather: "Su Yunyefeng! You're finally back! I thought, I thought—"
Night Breeze was also startled awake by the sudden braking. He hurriedly pushed aside the carport and poked his head out to ask, "Su Yun, what happened? Did you encounter a bear?"
Su Yun turned around and replied briefly, "No, we're almost home, it's Little Feather!"
"Little Feather!" Ye Feng was unusually excited to finally see his family after so long.
When Xiao Yu saw the familiar faces again, he became even more excited and rushed forward, "Waaah, Su Yun, Ye Feng, where have you been? Why haven't you come back for so long? I thought... I thought... something happened to you... Waaah... I'm so glad you're alright!"
As he spoke, he rushed over and hugged Su Yun, crying and laughing at the same time.
"I'm not dead! Don't squeeze me so tight, loosen your grip." Su Yun gasped for breath and finally managed to push the other person away.
However, the orc was incredibly strong; Little Feather's emotional outburst nearly snapped her in two.
Su Yun finally managed to break free from Xiao Yu Mao. Through her teary eyes, Xiao Yu Mao saw Ye Feng's figure again. He seemed to have just woken up, with his fluffy ears drooping on his soft, fluffy hair. Xiao Yu Mao's heart stirred with excitement, and he was just about to step forward and take the opportunity to touch Ye Feng's ear when he cried out, "Ye Feng, I missed you so much!"
Su Yun, with her sharp eyes, quickly stopped him: "No, no, no... He's injured, he can't take your abuse."
Little Feather then noticed Night Breeze's pale face and regretfully withdrew her hand, which had been reaching out to pet the cat's ears. "Night Breeze! What's wrong? Are you hurt? Are you alright?"
It was very cold, and the night wind blew out, chilling the air. He couldn't help but cough twice before slowly saying, "I'm fine, I'm all better now."
Seeing him cough again, Su Yun quickly shoved him back inside, saying, "Don't come out again. Put on your hat and rest." Then she turned to him and instructed, "Little Feather, you fly fast, go home and wait for us. Boil plenty of water, cook lots of food, and make some meat porridge!"
Seeing that the two looked exhausted, Little Feather didn't say anything more. They were tired from their journey and needed rest...
He nodded and gently agreed, "Okay, I'll head back now! Be careful!"
"Okay!" Su Yun waved his hand.
Watching the little feather's figure quickly disappear into the horizon, he then twisted the accelerator and continued on his way.
I saw Little Feather.
The dreamlike journey home slowly began to feel real.
They encountered no wild bears or attacks and finally returned home safely.
When Su Yun finally lay back down on her own bed, she completely relaxed and buried her head in the blankets.
The bed at home was very thick, made of large cotton quilts that Su Yun had sun-dried in the summer. They were soft and fluffy, carrying the scent of summer, and made one's nerves completely relax as soon as they lay down.
After taking a shower, Su Yun collapsed onto the bed, not wanting to move at all. She really wanted to just lie there lazily in bed.
Thinking this way, my mind gradually relaxed, and I suddenly felt drowsy, my eyelids began to droop...
When Ye Feng brought in the steamed sweet potatoes, Su Yun was already asleep...
She was too tired...
I was busy taking care of him the whole way...
Busy on the road...
Busy being on guard against the surrounding environment...
Busy keeping watch...
Tired and tense, unwilling to relax...
She was afraid that if she didn't hold on to something tightly, she would lose it all...
......
I'm finally home.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the window frame, falling on the girl's fair skin. The fine downy hairs shimmered with a hint of gold, making her appear as if she were glowing.
A small shadow was cast on her long eyelashes, rising and falling gently with the breath of the water, quiet and beautiful...
As the light in the courtyard gradually dimmed, the darkness thickened and enveloped the sleeping girl, serenely and peacefully fading into darkness.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Feng finally returned the bowl to Xiao Yu Mao.
He returned to the room, and before the last ray of light faded, he reached out and embraced the girl, gently holding her in his arms.
Sensing the sudden change in light and the chill of darkness, Su Yun groggily looked up and asked, "Is it dark yet?"
"Mmm..." Night Breeze's lips brushed against her forehead.
Su Yun hadn't been feeling well lately and was a bit sensitive to the cold. "Cold..." she murmured, shifting slightly as she felt the chill of the winter night, making it difficult for her to sleep soundly.
Hearing the noise, Ye Feng reached out and pulled her even closer. His lips touched her forehead, gently comforting her as always, and he enveloped her completely with his body heat.
After a long while, Su Yun, feeling the warmth, finally stopped moving around and quietly nestled herself in the warmest part of the fluff.
He watched as the girl fell asleep again, but his brows were tightly furrowed.
The night breeze bowed its head again, gently soothing her with kisses, just like before.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Sleep soundly, we're going home..."
I could feel the whispers in my ear and the same gentle touch as always.
finally......
The girl's brows furrowed, and she drifted into a deep sleep.
