Chapter 14: The Warm Sun

After finishing Liu Taiwei, Lin Jieyu bent down to look at Zhao Huanghe.At this moment, Zhao Huanghe was lying on his back with a pale complexion.She stretched out her hand to detect her breath, which was very weak, as if it would break off at any moment.

"Zhao Huanghe. I'll take you back." Lin Jieyu said softly, then set up Zhao Huanghe and added. "Don't die."

The movement of the body involved Zhao Huanghe's wound, and the heart-piercing pain woke her up from a deep coma.

"Is your body okay?" Seeing Zhao Huanghe woke up, Lin Jieyu asked with some relief.

"En." Zhao Huanghe smiled, and the corners of his chapped mouth overflowed with blood again.

"Can you walk?" Lin Jieyu asked, seeing that she still had a sliver of sanity.

"Yes." Zhao Huanghe replied, then turned his head to meet Lin Jieyu's eyes.Those pupils were not as red as before, and seemed to be gradually turning back to black.

Lin Jieyu just supported Zhao Huanghe and walked slowly on the snow mountain.Zhao Huanghe only felt delirious, but he didn't stop moving forward for a moment.The sun hangs high at noon, illuminating the snow-capped mountains in colorful colors.

Zhao Huanghe looked at this scenery in a daze, and his mind drifted to a farther place.

At dusk, Lin Jieyu placed Zhao Huanghe on the mountainside and went hunting by himself.Zhao Huanghe was leaning on the mountainside, and seeing Lin Jieyu holding his sleeves and holding a sword to barbecue, he suddenly felt that the time was quiet, and he felt an indescribable sense of joy.

But it so happened that Lin Jieyu looked back at her at this time, just in time to see Zhao Huanghe smiling at him, and said.

"Why are you smirking? Can you eat it yourself?"

"So what if I can't eat? Are you feeding me?" Zhao Huanghe said rascally.

"If you can't eat, just starve to death." Seeing Zhao Huanghe's unruly appearance again, Lin Jieyu lowered his voice, turned his face and continued to barbecue.

"But... I really can't eat anymore..." Zhao Huanghe closed his eyes and said calmly.

About half an hour later, Lin Jieyu roasted the meat and walked back to Zhao Huanghe.She raised her hand to touch Zhao Huanghe's forehead, and immediately retracted her hand.The heat was so hot that my hands ached.

"Zhao Huanghe..." Lin Jieyu called her.

"En?" Zhao Huanghe replied, but Lin Jieyu knew that most of her consciousness had faded away.

"I'm eating meat." Lin Jieyu put the meat in front of Zhao Huanghe.

"En." Zhao Huanghe took the piece of meat, bit it down, and swallowed it.Seeing her suffering from eating, Lin Jieyu was about to say something when he saw Zhao Huanghe smiled.She smiled childishly to herself. "Delicious."

Lin Jieyu still remembers that evening, Zhao Huanghe's smiling face reflecting the bonfire was so gorgeous, it could surpass the sunset glow in the sky.

At night, Zhao Huanghe fell asleep by the campfire.Seeing her lying on the ground tossing and turning in pain, Lin Jieyu went to her side and knelt down.She held Zhao Huanghe's head in her arms, and reached out to caress her cheek.Zhao Huanghe's body, which was scalded by a high fever, seemed to have found a trace of cooling from Lin Jieyu, and it became much more stable.She pressed her face tightly into Lin Jieyu's palm, as if absorbing the coldness.

"In this way, will the cheeks be more comfortable?" Lin Jieyu smiled, but Zhao Huanghe did not reply.

The night was dark, and Lin Jieyu had no intention of sleeping, only listening to the slight sound of the bonfire burning beside him.And Zhao Huanghe's ravings seemed to blend into the sound, it was so slight and ethereal.

Lin Jieyu approached Zhao Huanghe, and heard her whisper softly:

"Xiaoyu...I found a...very warm person..."

"Xiao Yu?" Lin Jieyu raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at the sleeping Zhao Huanghe.

"I...I miss you..." As if the tears flowing from Zhao Huanghe's eyes were scorching hot because of her fever, Lin Jieyu felt that Zhao Huanghe's tears filled his palms, hot and heavy.

On the second day, Zhao Huanghe's condition became more serious. She still had a high fever, and she even had trouble waking up.Lin Jieyu stood by Zhao Huanghe's side, but there was nothing he could do.In this endless snow mountain, there is no medicine to treat Zhao Huanghe's injury.

Lin Jieyu just kept watch all morning, but saw that the sky that should have been clear was gradually getting darker.

"Zhao Huanghe." Lin Jieyu tugged on Zhao Huanghe's sleeve, but Zhao Huanghe didn't respond. "Zhao Huanghe, get up quickly, the weather...seems like there is going to be a snowstorm."

However, no matter what Lin Jieyu said, Zhao Huanghe didn't respond. She was shivering and looked extremely cold.Lin Jieyu looked at the sky, feeling that he couldn't wait until Zhao Huanghe woke up before taking action.She then took off her snow fox cloak, wrapped Zhao Huanghe up, carried her on her back, and went down the mountain.

The mountain road is rugged, and Lin Jieyu felt several times that she and Zhao Huanghe would just roll down to the bottom of the mountain, but after walking, she became numb and no longer had the heart to worry about it.

At night, it was finally completely dark.There are no stars and no moon tonight, and the world is as dark as if it is shrouded in an abyss.Lin Jieyu couldn't even see where Zhao Huanghe was, and could only perceive Zhao Huanghe's existence from his arms.Unable to move forward, she looked around, and finally found a snow cave on the edge of the rock that could only accommodate one person.

She circled Zhao Huanghe and placed him in the snow cave.He stood outside the cave alone to welcome the blizzard.

After a whole day of depression, the blizzard finally hit violently.The heavy darkness swept away between the sky and the earth, and turned into a vast expanse of whiteness.Lin Jieyu lost Xuehu's cloak, and felt that his whole body was about to be blown apart by the wind and snow.

The snow cave was relatively warm, and Zhao Huanghe, who had been asleep for a day, finally opened his eyes.She looked sideways, and saw Lin Jieyu sitting on the edge of the cave, as if frozen.

"Lin Jieyu?"

"En." Unexpectedly, Lin Jieyu could reply. "Are you feeling better?"

"Better." Zhao Huanghe asked when she saw her turn her head. "Are you... cold?"

"Not cold." Lin Jieyu said.

"You... didn't you always want to kill me?" Zhao Huanghe said. "If you throw me in this snow mountain now, I will definitely die. Isn't it just as you wish?"

"You saved my two lives, and I will pay yours back." Lin Jieyu said. "In the future, we will not owe each other."

"If I save you for the third and fourth time in the future, do you want to pay it back?"

"There won't be such a time." Lin Jieyu replied indifferently.Zhao Huanghe saw that her long hair had been entangled by white snow, and even her eyebrows were covered with frost, which made her pupils redder.

Zhao Huanghe's health deteriorated day by day, and he could only rely on Lin Jieyu to carry him.The blizzard seems to never want to leave once it comes, and it always sweeps the entire extremely cold region without interruption.Lin Jieyu's physical strength was exhausted these days, and he could not carry Zhao Huanghe.

However, the blizzard hit again.

"Lin Jieyu." Zhao Huanghe, who woke up from time to time, lay on Lin Jieyu's back and called her softly.

"En." Lin Jieyu replied, but his mind was not clear.

"You said...we didn't lose to the giant dragon, but did we lose to these snow-capped mountains?" Zhao Huanghe smiled faintly.

"We haven't lost yet," Lin Jieyu said. "I'm still nostalgic for this world. I still want to give the blood to Kaguya. Didn't you say that? If you don't struggle to the end, you can't give up."

"That's right." Zhao Huanghe closed his eyes, but he knew that his body had indeed reached the final stage.She couldn't drag Lin Jieyu any longer.

Lin Jieyu was walking like this, when he suddenly heard Zhao Huanghe talking.

"Put me down."

"Why."

"Let's go separately, and then gather at Wei Qing." Zhao Huanghe said.

"Zhao Huanghe." Hearing what Zhao Huanghe said, Lin Jieyu finally said. "I will save your life. Even if I die, I will take you out of the snow mountain."

Hearing what Lin Jieyu said, Zhao Huanghe didn't make any sound anymore.Lin Jieyu didn't know if she fell asleep again or fell into deep thought.

The 50 people led by Wei Qing have been waiting at the entrance of the snow mountain for ten days and nights.The soldiers were very worried when they saw their general sitting in the tent with his back straight for two nights without sleep.So he mustered up the courage to go forward.

"General."

"What's the matter?" Wei Qing turned to look at him, and saw Wu Jue worried. "Should we return to Beijing to return to our orders?"

"What fate?" Wei Qing said coldly. "Do I want to tell His Majesty that General Zhao, Master Xie, and Taiwei Liu died in a fierce battle with the dragon. But I am living in the rear safe and sound?"

"Didn't General Zhao just leave you to pass a message to His Majesty? If you also die in a fierce battle, no one can tell His Majesty..."

"It's been ten days." Wei Qing said, looking at the wind and snow outside the tent. "We have to go in and find them."

"General Wei! General Wei absolutely cannot do anything!" Hearing that Wei Qing was going to enter the mountain, Wu Jue was terrified.He knelt down on the ground and said. "Just send us to find Mr. Zhao...you can't go!"

"What's your reasoning!"

"General Zhao hasn't come out for ten days... I'm afraid it's more ominous..." Wu Jue said. "That giant dragon is so ferocious and inhuman, you will surely die if you go there, General. I...how am I going to explain to Young Madam!"

"The life of the general is at stake now, how can I care about the young lady!" Hearing what Wu Jue said, Wei Qing was furious.He rushed out of the big tent and ordered in the snowstorm. "Everyone listen to my orders! Immediately go into the mountains to find General Zhao!"

However, the team led by Wei Qing had not yet entered the deep mountain, when they saw a person standing in the snowstorm not far ahead, seeming to be looking towards this side.

"That's..." Wei Qing stared at that person, but finally couldn't tell who it was.

"Master Xie...?" The soldier behind him seemed uncertain, because the man in ragged clothes and disheveled hair was too different from the cold and clean Lin Jieyu in their impression, and there seemed to be someone behind him .

One of the soldiers ran forward curiously, and finally confirmed the identity of that person.Wei Qing saw that he was overjoyed and turned around and shouted at himself: "It's Mr. Xie, that's right! It's Mr. Xie who brought Mr. Zhao back in triumph!"

Upon hearing the news, everyone was silent.Then, the whole team burst into unprecedented cheers.

Lin Jieyu stood silently with Zhao Huanghe behind her back, she could no longer hear any sound, and she couldn't see what was in front of her with her eyes open.She only felt that many people were running towards her, and then surrounded her and Zhao Huanghe in the middle.

"Look at her injuries." Lin Jieyu instructed the black shadow in front of him.

"Okay!" Wei Qing immediately obeyed Lin Jieyu's words and unloaded Zhao Huanghe from her back.

Then, everyone saw Lin Jieyu face down and fell into the snow.
