In the middle of Li Qiu's words, a busy tone came from the phone.He stared at the notification that there was no signal on the screen, his chest heaved twice, and he raised his hand and slammed it against the inner wall of the cave: "Grass!"

His mood gradually calmed down, and he tried to look at his phone again, but there was still no signal.Fortunately, the most important information has been told to Yan An. With his intelligence, Li Qiu should have realized the problem when he didn't call him yesterday.

Chen Ci was still suffering from a low-grade fever, his energy was low, and he was a little sleepy: "Who...?"

"Xiao'an." Li Qiu said, "I've already told him, don't worry, Zhang Tong and the others will find him soon."

Chen Ci hummed in a low voice, closed his eyes and did not speak again.

Li Qiu turned on the kettle and fed him some water, then took off his coat, soaked it in rainwater and wrung it dry, let Chen Ci lean on his body, and cooled him down with the wet coat.

Chen Ci squinted for a while, then suddenly said, "Xiao Li, please chat with me."

Li Qiu touched the temperature on his forehead and felt that the temperature had dropped a lot, so he said: "You should take a good rest first."

"I don't want to sleep. When I fall asleep, I will only have nightmares." Chen Ci opened his eyes, leaning on Li Qiu's shoulders, not only did he not know where to turn, "It's rare to want to relax, but it turned out like this... This is a business trip and not doing business consequences?"

His tone was rare and naive, and Li Qiu couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard it.

The two of them chatted for a while, and Chen Ci became more energetic, sat up, and faced Li Qiu.Li Qiu saw that his appetite had improved a little, so he gave him all the chocolate.But Chen Ci had to give half of it to Li Qiu, after a couple of refusals, Li Qiu said with a smile: "Okay, young master, you are my big boss, I have to take good care of you."

When Chen Ci heard the word 'young master', he was in a daze for a moment, and then he followed Li Qiu's words and said, "Okay, I'll give you a bonus when you go down the mountain—well, it's called the best bodyguard... Wait, this is What?!"

"what?"

"There's something behind you!"

Li Qiu looked back suddenly, only saw the pile of withered grass behind him, he muttered: "...No."

"Impossible, I saw it, I don't know what it is, it passed by in a flash."

Li Qiu looked carefully again, and found that there was indeed nothing, so he said to Chen Ci: "Did you have a fever and didn't rest and get dizzy, there is really nothing."

Chen Ci himself was worried, so he looked at it twice more, and after repeated confirmation, he said: "I should be wrong."

But he still felt concerned, and pulled Li Qiu to move towards him.Li Qiu saw his nervousness and wanted him to relax a bit, joking intentionally: "Okay boss, it's broad daylight and it's raining again, the old corpses in the mountains and forests don't want to go to work, right, there won't be anything coming .”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Chen Ci's eyes widen.Li Qiu was about to ask him what's wrong, but the other party shouted: "Li Qiu!"

Almost at the same time as he was speaking, Chen Ci suddenly threw Li Qiu down, and the two of them rolled half a circle outside the cave.Before Li Qiu realized what happened, Chen Ci pushed him away again.

After falling to the ground, Li Qiu pressed Chen Ci, and he pushed him outside. At this moment, Li Qiu was outside the cave, covered in mud.He stood up in extreme embarrassment and looked at Chen Ci, his eyes were tearing apart—Chen Ci's left leg, the one that was originally intact, was wrapped around a snake!

The snake's feet were as thick as two fingers, the snake's body was wrapped around Chen Ci's leg, and the snake's head was raised slightly, spitting out a letter.Chen Ci's face was pale and he remained motionless.

This is the first time Li Qiu encountered such a situation, he didn't dare to walk around casually, for fear of startling it.He quietly squatted down to pick up a branch, then slowly walked to Chen Ci's side.

The snake seemed to have discovered Li Qiu, and suddenly stopped moving.

Hit the snake seven inches, but the snake's body was wrapped around Chen Ci's leg.A straight branch has almost zero effect.Li Qiu looked at the snake, and thought he was going to fight it out, so he took advantage of it's stagnation and suddenly stretched out his hand to grab the snake's head.

Li Qiu's shot was so quick that he caught it unexpectedly.The snake felt threatened, and kept shaking its body in an attempt to break free. Li Qiu pulled it up and said to Chen Ci: "Bring me a stone, and then hide away!"

However, I don't know if it was because of weak legs or something else, but Chen Ci couldn't stand up for a long time.Li Qiu cursed in a low voice, telling Chen Ci to stay here, before he could respond, he ran out of the cave and picked up a stone.

The snake was in his hand, struggling so hard that he almost couldn't catch it.Li Qiu wanted to let it go, but he was afraid that it would bite someone again, so he squatted down cruelly, grabbed the snake's tail with his right hand, and smashed the snake's seven inches with his left hand holding a stone—!

The snake paused for a moment, then twisted wildly.Li Qiu was afraid that he would not be able to kill it with one blow, so he hammered it with stones several times until it stopped moving.

After confirming that the snake was dead, Li Qiu threw it outside the cave before running back.Seeing that Chen Ci was still sitting in the same place, Li Qiu immediately squatted down beside him: "How are you?"

However, Chen Ci just had a pale face, a little numb.

Li Qiu felt cold, and looked at Chen Ci's left leg.He quickly rolled up his trousers, and saw a small hole on Chen Ci's calf after being bitten by a snake.

For a moment, Li Qiu's movements stopped.

His eyes were red, he looked at Chen Ci, his lips moved but he couldn't say a word.Chen Ci looked at him silently, his eyes were gentle and sad.

Li Qiu can't care about anything, doesn't want to care about anything.He turned around, half squatted and shouted at Chen Ci: "Come up, I'll carry you back! I'll take you away!"

"Xiao Li." Chen Ci's voice trembled slightly, "I can't get up."

Li Qiu's heart skipped a beat, he was afraid that it was a toxic attack that made him feel weak.He knew in his heart that after being bitten by a poisonous snake, he had to inject serum in time, and now every minute and every second was a race against time.

Li Qiu gritted his teeth, and slapped himself hard, gradually regaining his sanity.He recalled the things he had seen about being bitten by a poisonous snake, and quickly took out the knife in his backpack, slit his clothes, tore them into strips, and tied them near Chen Ci's wound.Then, some of the poisonous blood was squeezed out.

When doing this, Li Qiu swept his tongue around his mouth.It's fine, no sores or cuts.Li Qiu leaned over, held Chen Ci's wound in his mouth, and sucked out the poisonous blood with his mouth.

He has calmed down a bit, thinking about this snake in his heart.Before he didn't know that Chen Ci was injured, he threw the dead snake away, but now that Chen Ci has been bitten, the snake's body must be brought back—in order to confirm what kind of snake bit Chen Ci, so as to speed up the process. Find the corresponding serum injection.

He sucked and spat out, and didn't stop until the blood was hard to suck out.Li Qiu took out his mobile phone to check, but there was still no signal. Looking at the windy and rainy weather outside, he thought that this fucking life wouldn't be so miserable for a dog.

Li Qiu took a deep breath and looked at Chen Ci: "Wait here for me."

Before Chen Ci could respond, Li Qiu plunged into the majestic rain.

The snake's body was smashed to pieces by him, and it was already dead.Li Qiusheng didn't like this kind of animals very much, but at this moment, he didn't feel any disgust in his heart, only anxiety and fear.He carried the snake back, and saw Chen Ci's eyes half-opened, his face pale.

Now that it was raining heavily and the road was muddy, it was not easy for Li Qiu to go down the mountain alone, let alone go down the mountain with a grown man on his back and climb another hill to go to the town for help.

Chen Ci leaned against the mountain wall and looked up at him, the corners of his lips curled slightly, looking uglier than crying: "Xiao Li, sit down and chat with me."

The uneasiness in Li Qiu's heart instantly magnified.However, Chen Ci's face was full of anticipation, and he couldn't refuse, so he sat down.

"How long have we known each other?" Chen Ci suddenly asked nonsensically, but Li Qiu was taken aback by the question.

How long?

Li Qiu couldn't remember when they met, but he only remembered the day when he first met Chen Ci.He originally thought that the other party would be a ruthless 'Taoist', and originally only wanted to get more money and resources from him.

However, at some point, he began to treat Chen Ci as a brother, began to trust him, and began to open his heart to him.

Aside from that unpleasant experience, Chen Ci has always been a noble person in his heart, a boss who gave him more opportunities for promotion, a friend who talked with him heart-to-heart, and a benefactor who helped him when he was in extreme difficulty.Chen Ci has helped him unconditionally too many times, each time without expecting anything in return.

For example now...

Li Qiu's eyes were slightly red, and the veins on his forehead were bulging.Chen Ci moved his position with difficulty, and leaned on Li Qiu: "It's been seven years. We've known each other for as long as Yan An has been with you."

"I liked you at first because of other reasons. But later, I really liked you." Chen Ci's ending sound trembled slightly, revealing sadness and exhaustion, "I'm very happy that you did not live up to my expectations."

Li Qiu was very upset, for the first time, he didn't want to push him away, and stretched out his hand to embrace him.

"Remember Wang Laojiu? I just came to Qiyang at that time, and I heard about you and him, so I wanted to keep you, not only because you are famous here, but more importantly, you are very talkative. righteousness."

"I've been investigating you for a while... Wang Laojiu was released from prison a few years ago, and I've been paying attention."

Li Qiu's hand shrank subconsciously.

He already knew what Chen Ci was going to say.

A sense of powerlessness and sourness welled up in his heart, Li Qiu didn't intend to cry, but the tears kept streaming down.One or two drops fell on Chen Ci's neck, he looked up at him slightly, and stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears for him.

"A few years have passed, and his relationship has long been gone. I asked someone to help you a little. He will never trouble you again in this life." Chen Ci wanted to pat Li Qiu's head, but he In Li Qiu's arms, reaching out to wipe away the tears was difficult, so he could only give up, and said with some regret, "Even if I'm not here, you will be fine...don't pay back the money you owe me, you are my default successor, Help me run the company well, okay?"

"You fucking fart!" Li Qiu wanted to yell at him, but he was afraid that his voice would disturb him too much, "I'll fuck you, Chen Ci, who the hell wants you to help...you try talking nonsense to me again !"

Chen Ci laughed softly in his arms, his voice was nice.He wanted Li Qiu not to cry anymore, but the tears couldn't be wiped away, and finally he cried too, holding Li Qiu's hand and saying: "Xiao Li, Yan An is fine, I can see that you also like him Yes. At least not annoying, right? Don’t care too much about what other people think, people who really love you only want you to be happy, don’t they?”

He took a deep breath, and his voice was weak: "Can I...can I kiss you?"

Li Qiu didn't know what to say, whether to agree or refuse.Chen Ci didn't get a response, and smiled softly: "Actually, I'm afraid of pain, and I'm also afraid of the dark. I'm afraid of thunder, I'm afraid of snakes... But everything doesn't seem to be that important anymore."

Chen Ci caressed Li Qiu's hand, grabbed his hand to his lips, and pressed a kiss on the back of his hand with great care.

"It's rare to be willful once, I hope you don't mind." Chen Ci coughed, his voice broken, "Xiao Li, Li Qiu..."

"I like you."
