Gradually, I felt that every part of my body was itchy.
Lin Qingping couldn't scratch it anymore, and asked Gu Juncheng with a frown, "When are we going down the mountain?"
"Go down the mountain?" Gu Juncheng carefully put the dishes in Lin Qingping's bowl and said, "Wait a little longer."
Well, Lin Qingping had no choice but to endure the itch on his body, sit stiffly and continue waiting.
Lin Qingping didn't know what he was waiting for. It was very awkward for three people to wait here without talking. Moreover, when it was quiet, all her attention was on the itchiness on her body, which was really uncomfortable.
"Gu Juncheng, what are you waiting for?" She scratched her body quietly.
Gu Juncheng said seriously, "You will know in a moment."
How long do we have to wait?
If I had brought a deck of playing cards, the three of them could have played Landlord. Oh, do they know how to play Landlord?
Lin Qingping looked at Gu Juncheng uncomfortably. His face, which was as red as the bottoms of two iron pots on the ground, and his usually taciturn personality, made Lin Qingping feel that she probably couldn't expect him to say anything.
She placed her hopes on Xiaotian, "Xiaotian, tell me about the interesting things that happened during your training."
Let’s chat to divert my attention. Otherwise, how can I get over the itchiness all over my body?
Xiaotian had an expression that said, "If you talk about this, I won't be sleepy anymore." He immediately became very excited and said, "Sister-in-law, you know, if we can catch the caterpillars at their fattest time in the wild, we are very lucky. We can catch a bag full of them in a short time. We can put tiles on the fire, and then roast the insects on the tiles..."
Lin Qingping felt her head buzzing and it felt like countless big green caterpillars were crawling on her body.
"Change it, Xiaotian." Her voice was trembling.
"Okay!" Xiaotian immediately changed his answer. "Sister-in-law, you know, you will encounter all kinds of wild animals in the wild, right? Bears, wild boars, and snakes are the most common. One day, a snake crawled into our comrade's tent and he slept there all night without even knowing it. In the morning, the snake crawled over his feet..."
Lin Qingping's entire body froze. At this moment, she felt something crawling over her feet...
She screamed, and her extremely tired body suddenly generated infinite strength. She jumped up and jumped onto Gu Juncheng.
Thanks to Gu Juncheng's agility, he hugged her tightly and held her steadily.
Lin Qingping was held horizontally by him, with her arms around his neck and her feet raised to the sky, making sure no part of her body touched the ground. At the same time, she screamed in fear, "Snake! Snake!"
There was a rustling sound in the grass, and then there was no more movement.
Xiaotian took a closer look and said, "Sister-in-law, it's a gecko, oh, a lizard."
Gu Juncheng also patted her, "It's okay, it's just a lizard."
Motioned for her to come down.
How could Lin Qingping be willing to get off him?
Instead, she hugged him tighter, strangling his neck with her arms, and began to cry, "I don't want to stay here anymore, Gu Juncheng, I want to go down the mountain, how long do we have to wait before we go down the mountain!"
Gu Juncheng patiently comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here for you. What do you have to be afraid of? Even if there really is a snake..."
“No——” Lin Qingping couldn’t bear to hear the word snake at all. She felt cold and terrified. Although she was born in the countryside, the animal she feared most was snakes. “No! I want to go back! Gu Juncheng, what are you waiting for!”
Gu Juncheng hugged her and answered her question seriously, "Wait for the sunrise!"
What!
sunrise?!!
That means you have to wait all night!
Lin Qingping couldn't stand it anymore. She felt itchy all over, and there was an unknown fear in the dark grass. She was afraid that some unknown reptile might jump out at any time. She couldn't stand it if she stayed there for another second!
"I don't want to watch the sunrise anymore! Otherwise... if you really want to watch it, you can ask Xiaotian to accompany me back and you can watch it here by yourself. Or, I will go back and ask my eldest sister and brother-in-law to come and watch it with you. I... wuwuwu..." Lin Qingping cried breathlessly.
It can be said that since Gu Juncheng met Lin Qingping, he has never seen her cry like this.
“But…” He looked at the pink and white flowers in the bushes around him, and the pots and pans used for cooking on the ground: ???
What kind of advice did Wu Tianping give him?
"Don't say but, Gu Juncheng, I beg you, please let me down the mountain... I'll let my sister and brother-in-law come instead, okay! Wuuuuu--" Lin Qingping cried more and more miserably, and still begged.
Gu Juncheng was speechless, "Then go back."
Lin Qingping heard it and said, "Okay!"
She immediately jumped out of his arms, not daring to stay there for a moment, and ran down the mountain crying.
This mountain road is dark all the way down...
Gu Juncheng didn't dare to delay any longer and pointed to the ground, "Xiaotian, clean it up."
After saying that, he followed Lin Qingping away.
Lin Qingping walked very fast, one step deep and one step shallow in the darkness, crying as she walked. It was because she felt itchy all over, or her lower abdomen was still aching, or she was very tired, but none of them could overcome her fear of snakes. She just wanted to get down the mountain quickly and go back.
Although one of Gu Juncheng's feet had not fully recovered, he was physically strong and only needed to use his other foot for a little leverage. He could move very quickly on one foot and soon caught up with her.
"Lin Qingping!" he called her, "Don't cry, I'll carry you down the mountain."
Lin Qingping paused. She was really scared and really didn't want to touch the ground with her feet, but she sobbed and looked at Gu Juncheng's feet.
He is lame himself, how can I ask him to carry me?
She sobbed, her face full of tears, and looked up and asked him, "How about I carry you on my back?"
Gu Juncheng: …
"What should I do?" Lin Qingping couldn't help crying again, "Why are you doing this?"
He had a limp, so why did he come to climb the mountain, why did he come to watch the sunrise, and why did he do so many things that she couldn't understand?
Gu Juncheng: …
He also wanted to ask why?
Lin Qingping cried and held his hand, "Let me help you walk, walk slowly."
Between his injured foot and the possibility of snakes, she chose to take care of his injured foot.
At most, she would be bitten by a snake, but his foot would be a lifelong matter...
"I'm fine!" Gu Juncheng wiped the tears from her face.
"Then, let's go..." She cried so hard that she hiccupped, and she supported him and walked slowly.
Later, Oda caught up with the pots and pans in his hand. Looking at the two people supporting each other in front of him, he didn't know what to do for a moment.
Should he carry the captain on his back?
Or carry your sister-in-law on your back?
It seems that none of them are suitable...
In fact, it would be best if he didn't show up...
Lin Qingping's hair stood on end along the way, and she would be frightened by the slightest movement in the grass. But fortunately, she was safe and sound, and finally got down the mountain without seeing any animals.
