Traveling through troubled times, he fled with his stepson

Li Yuan used all his strength and focused his attention on the road under his feet to prevent Wei Qiqi from being tripped by vines or something on the road.

You also have to carefully look for the marks you made earlier to see where you are going.

When they arrived at the cave, Li Yuan just turned his head and Wei Qiqi slipped off his shoulder.

Li Yuan was quick-witted and quick-handed. He hugged Wei Qiqi's head in a panic, and both of them fell to the ground.

"Qiniang?"

Wei Qiqi did not respond. The hand that was holding Wei Qiqi's head felt hot.

It's getting hot.

Li Yuan's face looked grim.

After all, he was only an eight-year-old child. He calmly thought of solutions, but the only person who could accompany him was also leaving, which made him panic.

"Qiniang, you are my only relative. You are all I have."

"you can not……"

Li Yuan tried to move Wei Qiqi's body, but the body of a sixteen-year-old girl, no matter how light, was not something that an eight-year-old child could move.

Li Yuan placed his coat under Wei Qiqi, and then looked around for something.

This is the forest.

What is not missing is branches.

He found two branches of similar size and thickness, then took off Wei Qiqi's bag and took out her wedding dress.

The moment the wedding coat was taken out, I couldn't hold back my tears any longer.

This was bought by my father for Qiniang.

Now they are leaving him.

He had no time to be sad, so he tied the wedding dress to two branches and tried to drag Wei Qiqi on the simple trolley.

Li Yuan used all his strength. His fair face began to turn red due to the exertion, and even the blue veins began to jump.

step.

Five steps.

……

Finally, Wei Qiqi was dragged into the cave.

Li Yuan lay exhausted on the side. He slowly turned his head to look at Wei Qiqi, his fingers and calves feeling sore.

Wei Qiqi's face had begun to turn red, and it felt hot to the touch. Li Yuan took a breath and stood up again. He took off a sleeveless shirt from his body and cut it into several pieces on the slightly sharp stone.

Then walked outside.

There is a stream not far from the cave.

It was getting dark and he had a lot to do.

There was blood to be dealt with, rabbits to be dealt with, and fires to be made.

The most important thing is to suppress the heat for Qiniang.

Li Yuan's hair was disheveled, and his frighteningly bright pupils could be seen between the hair.

He dipped all the pieces of cloth in water to cool them down, then ran back and neatly placed them on Wei Qiqi's forehead.

Once or twice.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Yuan could no longer tell whether Wei Qiqi's fever had subsided.

He looked at the light that was already darkening, and this time he planned to light a fire first.

When he went out and picked up a pile of firewood and came back, Wei Qiqi was already looking around with his eyes open.

The cave was not very big, and if she lay down, Li Yuan would have to lean half on the edge of the cave.

There are some haystacks on the ground.

She saw Li Yuan standing not far away with a stern face, and couldn't help but wave to the child to come over.

She could vaguely sense what Li Yuan was doing, but she just couldn't wake up.

"Don't worry, I'm much better now."

In fact, she didn't. Her head was still groggy, but she could speak now.

Li Yuan came close to her and she took the child in her arms.

"It's okay. It's okay."

"Scared."

Li Yuan in his arms blinked, then hugged Wei Qiqi's waist with both hands and closed his eyes.

After the warmth, Li Yuan began to learn how to make a fire like Wei Qiqi. He piled a pile of firewood together and then started to light it with a fire starter.

The bright campfire slowly filled the cave, making the dark night slightly warmer.

Wei Qiqi felt weak all over, even a little cold, and moved slightly closer to the fire.

"Qiniang, it looks like it's going to rain."

Li Yuan suddenly looked outside.

She looked over and saw that outside the cave, near the fire, there was indeed a drizzle seeping through the ground.

A breeze blew towards the fire, causing the burning flames to sway from side to side.

Li Yuan looked at the flames, he stood up and used his body to block the fire that was swaying left and right in the wind.

"Xiaobao!"

Wei Qiqi shouted and looked at Li Yuan with a frown.

"What are you standing there for? Come here and get caught in the rain later."

Li Yuan shook his head and wanted to say something, but Wei Qiqi was about to stand up and pull Li Yuan.

Li Yuan had no choice but to walk over.

The two looked at each other in silence as the rain began to fall outside.

"Xiaobao, use the stone to move the fire a little further in."

Wei Qiqi really couldn't stand the child's gaze and felt that she was going to die in the next second.

Li Yuan obediently started to make a fire.

"Didn't you get a rabbit?" Wei Qiqi instructed one thing after another, trying to prevent the child from looking at her with a look of sadness that she would soon die.

The child came to his senses when he heard the rabbit.

He turned around to look at the wet and clean rabbit outside and brought it in.

Wei Qiqi was a little surprised when she saw it. This...

The rabbit was handled very well by the children. All the internal organs were dug out except for the rabbit head.

But where did he get the weapon?

As if he understood what she was thinking, Li Yuan said, "There is a stone outside that can be cut open."

At this point, Wei Qiqi had nothing but admiration for the little brother.

Li Yuan didn't need Wei Qiqi's instructions this time. He began to skewer the meat with branches, placed the two branches that Wei Qiqi had been using on both sides, and then slowly turned the meat over and roasted it.

"Xiaobao, who did you learn this method of handling rabbits from?"

Wei Qiqi chatted idly.

A silent atmosphere can make people feel depressed and uncomfortable.

"I saw someone else do it in the kitchen."

She was a little surprised. "Have you seen others do it? Is this your first time to do it with a rabbit?"

Li Yuan was a little silent tonight, and he nodded.

Wei Qiqi's forehead throbbed and felt a little painful, so he had to close his eyes.

It was only a short while after she closed her eyes that she came to her senses and opened them again.

This kid...

Wouldn't that be too wrong?

When I was eight years old, I killed a rabbit for the first time and didn’t feel any special reaction.

Just watch it and learn how to handle it.

"Xiaobao, Qi Niang wants to ask you, when you killed the rabbit, did you feel scared?"

Wei Qiqi observed the child's expression.

"You're injured. If I don't find a solution, there will be nothing to eat."

Li Yuan pursed his lips and said somewhat frustratedly.

His aggrieved expression made Wei Qiqi unable to think of anything else and she could only nod.

How scared the child must have been after she was bitten by the snake.

Just a child, Wei Qiqi, what are you thinking about?

Wei Qiqi nodded and smiled helplessly: "I don't dare to kill these, so I think you are so powerful."

Li Yuan lowered his head and continued to fiddle with it, a hint of relief silently flashing across his eyes.

Deceiving.

Boom——

There was a loud thunder outside and Wei Qiqi had a fever again. She vaguely felt that Li Yuan was hugging her, and she subconsciously hugged him back.

When he opened his eyes again, it was still dark outside and Li Yuan had fallen asleep leaning against the wall of the cave.

As she moved, the cloth on her forehead fell off and hit her thigh.

I feel much better than before.

She tried to cover the child with her coat.

The rain outside had almost stopped, and the fire was about to go out with a dripping sound because no one added fuel to the fire.

"Roar--"

Wei Qiqi, who was adding dry branches and leaves to the fire, felt his hand tremble.

This is…
