Originated from mountains and seas, life never ends

"You are hurt?"

When everyone woke up, Qin Xiao and the others simply packed up and set out again. Mo Hanyu moved around a few times and found nothing wrong with his body, so he went with them.

He thought of something in the middle of the conversation and suddenly turned around to ask Qin Xiao.

"Ah, yes." Qin Xiao said calmly, without any expression, "He has been cured by Tian Miao."

After hearing this, Mo Hanyu turned his head and saw that Tian Miao consciously met his eyes and smiled at him.

Mo Hanyu smiled back, then turned to Qin Xiao and said sullenly, "Then why didn't you tell me before?"

"Why should I tell you?" Qin Xiao was puzzled.

Mo Hanyu was a little angry and stared at him without saying anything.

He knew that Qin Xiao didn't mean to anger him. Qin Xiao really didn't understand why he had to tell him about this. After all, knowing it wouldn't change anything, but would affect his mood.

Mo Hanyu turned his gaze to Qin Yunan and looked at him silently. Suddenly, his eyes fixed and his expression became a little strange.

Qin Yun'an didn't understand what was going on. When he turned around, he saw that Mo Hanyu had turned his head back.

Qin Xiao saw that Mo Hanyu didn't reply for a long time, looked at him, and when he saw that he had nothing to say, he withdrew his gaze.

The journey was uneventful. Perhaps it was because of Qiongqi and Taotie, but even small animals were rarely seen along the way.

When night came, several people sat by the campfire, staring at the barbecue skewered on branches in front of them and chatting.

Qin Yun'an had been chatting with Tian Miao and Qiu Puyue a lot these days, and he quickly became familiar with them. He had a good temper, and even when Tian Miao didn't know basic common sense, he could explain it to him with a smile, without any impatience.

"So... why are you so determined to go out?" Qiu Puryue turned over the roasted rabbit in front of her and looked at Qin Yun'an.

"What?" Qin Yun'an was surprised by her question.

"What I mean is..." Qiu Puyue met Qin Yun'an's puzzled gaze and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. She touched the back of her neck and said, "I have met a few people who have married and lived here along the way... After all, I have been trapped here for many years. The hope of getting out is very slim. Moreover, I have been isolated from the world for so many years. Can I really adapt to life outside if I go out?"

"...I haven't thought about that." Qin Yun'an blinked and touched his chin. "I have been thinking about getting out for decades. After all, the mountains are so dangerous."

"But for someone like you who has lived here for decades, these mountains are the places you are most familiar with, right? Why are you so persistent?" Qiu Puryue asked.

"Well..." Qin Yun'an was silent for a moment when facing Qiu Puyue's puzzled eyes, and then smiled, "Because when I came in, I promised someone that I would definitely leave."

"Although I don't know how he has been doing over the years, I still want to give it a try. Even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, I shouldn't give up." Qin Yun'an smiled, "After all, I promised him."

"Who is that person?" Qin Xiao suddenly asked.

"My brother." Qin Yun'an was surprised by Qin Xiao's reaction. "He was less than five years old at the time. Before I left, I lied to him and said I ran away from home. I don't know how he has been doing these years..."

Qin Yun'an said this, his eyes dimmed.

"What's his name?" Qin Xiao asked.

"? Why are you so curious?" Qin Yun'an suddenly became alert and looked at Qin Xiao, "Are you planning to take revenge after you get out?"

Qin Xiao: ...

"What do you have that's worthy of revenge?" Qin Xiao's brows twitched, as if he was helpless.

"Then why are you acting so abnormal?" Qin Yun'an still stared at him in doubt. "Didn't you say before that you were not interested in what I said?"

Qin Xiao: ...

Qin Xiao: "Forget it if you don't want to say it."

Qin Xiao turned his head and gnawed on the freshly roasted rabbit.

"If he wanted to do something, he would have done it long ago." Yin Xihui held up his chin and said with a smile, "Based on the curse mark on your neck, it would only take him a few minutes to kill you. Why wait until we get out?"

Qin Yun'an rolled his eyes, looked at Qin Xiao who had stopped talking, then looked at Qiu Puyue who showed approval, and thought for a moment.

Forget it, Yuhua is so old, how could it be such a coincidence?

Qin Yun'an smiled and sighed: "His name is Xiuyun."

Qin Xiao paused.

Mo Hanyu next to him glanced at him.

"Eh? Your name is Qin Xiuyun? It's a nice name." Qiu Puryue didn't feel there was anything wrong with it and praised.

"Yeah, my brother and I both have nice names." Qin Yun'an said with a smile.

Qin Xiao stopped chewing, raised his head and looked at the sky.

Qin Xiuyun...

Very familiar name.

"Your father." Mo Hanyu couldn't help but whispered in Qin Xiao's ear.

Qin Xiao: ...

Qin Xiao: ???

Qin Xiao's pupils shrank slightly and he looked suddenly at Mo Hanyu.

Mo Hanyu nodded heavily.

Qiongqi, who was lying between them, raised his eyes, swept his gaze across the two of them, and finally stopped on Qin Xiao's face.

There was no expression on Qin Xiao's face, except that his pupils narrowed and his eyes widened.

Qin Xiao turned his head to look at Qin Yun'an, without moving his head, and scanned him carefully from head to toe. Finally, he revealed a strange expression.

"...What's wrong with you?" Qin Yun'an was still a little confused.

Qin Xiao immediately replied: "No, nothing."

Faced with Qin Yun'an's puzzled eyes, Qin Xiao turned away expressionlessly, but he didn't know where to look, so he could only stare at Mo Hanyu.

Mo Hanyu smiled at him: "Is it exciting?"

"…You knew that a long time ago?"

"You'll know after you meet him and think about it." Mo Hanyu lowered his eyes, "You look a bit like him."

Qin Xiao had a complicated expression as he recalled the series of things he had done since he met Qin Yun'an...

If he told Qin Xiuyun after he got out...

Qin Xiao covered his forehead with his hands. The scene was so beautiful that he didn't dare to think about it.

Qin Xiao suddenly remembered that before he came here, his father did tell him that there was an uncle here who had not returned.

"...How is your relationship with your brother?" Qin Xiao held his forehead and turned his eyes to look at Qin Yun'an.

"That... is still pretty good." Qin Yun'an seemed to be thinking of some scene and smiled happily, "Oh, my brother is so soft and chubby. Every time he calls me brother, he is so sweet. He has a dimple on the left side when he smiles, and he is also very obedient."

After the words were spoken, Qin Yun'an was no longer so nervous. Thinking of his brother, Qin Yun'an's eyes were filled with smiles and the corners of his mouth curled up gently.

"I don't know how he is now... Before, when I said I wanted to leave, he was crying and kept pulling me to stop me from leaving... In the end, I promised him that I would definitely come back, and he reluctantly stopped." Qin Yun'an smiled and looked at Qin Xiao, "Considering his age, he should be married now, and his children are probably grown up."

Qin Xiao: ...

Qin Xiao felt inexplicably guilty and turned his head to cover his mouth.

"I don't know if his children will be as well-behaved as he was when he was a child... After all, he is that kind of gentle child." Qin Yun'an couldn't stop daydreaming.

Qin Xiao: ...

"So, your brother is very cute." Yin Xihui smiled and noticed that there was something wrong with Qin Xiao's expression. Thinking of his previous guess, he glanced at him lightly.

Qin Xiao covered his mouth, still thinking about what Qin Yun'an had just said, and trying to find a figure among the brothers and sisters in this life that matched Qin Yun'an's fantasy.

Be good and gentle...

Qin Jiuyuan?

No, that kid is very noisy.

Qin Jichen?

No, too calm.

Qin Jinyi?

wrong……

Qin Xiao thought for a long time and found that the image of Qin's father alone was very different from what Qin Yun'an described.

Soft... tender...

Qin Xiao narrowed his eyes and, based on Qin Yun'an's description, imagined Qin Xiuyun holding on to Qin Yun'an and refusing to let go.

Qin Xiao: ...

Help.

Qin Xiao covered his eyes in pain.

"If he raised a child, he would never raise a vicious child like you who only wants to kill people." Qin Yun'an thought of something and snorted at Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao: ...

"...Are you from Rongcheng?" Qin Xiao wanted to make a last-ditch effort.

"? How did you know?" Qin Yun'an was surprised, "You too?"

"I... have heard of him."

Qin Yun'an inexplicably felt that Qin Xiao's words were a bit empty.

Qin Xiao pretended to be calm: "He is now the patriarch, and he has four children. I have seen them all."

"Really? Then it seems like he's doing pretty well, haha." Qin Yun'an was surprised and happy, and asked with a smile, "Then how old is his youngest child?"

Qin Xiao thought about Qin Jiuyuan's age: "Four or five years old?"

Mo Hanyu suddenly looked at him in disbelief.

Qin Xiao:?

"Ah? Then it's coming in a year..." Qin Yun'an was a little disappointed. He subconsciously thought that Qin Xiuyun would let the last child come. After all, those who do this kind of thing are either the first or the last, and there are very few in between.

She doesn't need to come?

Qin Xiao blinked, but still didn't tell the truth.

"How is Xiuyun now?" Qin Yun'an was obviously very interested in Qin Xiuyun's current situation and asked.

Qin Xiao: "...He's doing well, right?"

Qin Xiao recalled Qin Xiuyun's words and expression before he left, and didn't know how to describe it.

"Really... That's good." Qin Yun'an breathed a sigh of relief, smiling gently, "He should be very anxious now, right? Because he became the clan leader, he must choose a child to come here... But if we succeed, we can avoid all this."

Qin Yun'an said, thinking of something, his eyes shone again, looking at Mo Hanyu with hope in his eyes: "So you must get out alive, it would be even better if you can open the seal."

Mo Hanyu, who was watching the excitement, said:...

"I, I will try my best..." Mo Hanyu laughed dryly and turned his head to the side.

"So, you have never given up on finding a way out all these years just to fulfill that promise?" Yin Xihui smiled, his two smiling eyes like crescent moons, shining with crystal light, "It sounds really touching."

"It's nothing actually. Although it's dangerous outside and I'm not so familiar with it...but compared to the mountains, I still prefer being outside because there may be someone waiting for me outside." Qin Yun'an touched the back of his head and smiled.

"That's why I was so nervous, you little brat." Qin Yun'an changed the subject and looked at Qin Xiao dimly, "When we first met, you really scared me half to death. You were so murderous and cold-blooded..."

Qin Xiao: ...

"The key is that you are quite capable." Qin Yun'an became more and more angry as he thought about it. "How come you guys are born with such a high talent for evil cultivation? You don't even leave anyone a chance to survive."

Qin Xiao: ...

Qin Xiao and Mo Hanyu looked at each other, both feeling helpless.

"Why did you look at me like that just now?"

Seeing that Qin Yun'an didn't talk about this topic anymore, Qin Xiao turned around and asked Mo Hanyu.

"...Isn't your sister two years younger than you? She should be at least six or seven years old now." Mo Hanyu glanced at Qin Yun'an and whispered to him.
