They say it's sick

Chapter 57

There was nothing to see in Li Yan's dilapidated house, not to mention the ruins that had been burnt down. All the way in, there were only broken tiles and a few remaining mud walls to prove that this place was once a family.

The fire that was lit that day was nothing to Li Yan. There was nothing worth nostalgic about in this house where he had lived for more than ten years. It was more like a relief to burn it down, not to mention...

Li Yan took out a brocade handkerchief from his arms, took Yunzhi's hand who had just finished eating the buns, wiped it carefully, and said, "I've thought about it carefully."

Yun Zhi looked up at him, unable to keep up with the endless sentence: "What are you thinking?"

"I really don't regret burning this place..." Li Yan put away his dirty brocade handkerchief, "I regret that I didn't say a few words to you before the fire that day."

"What are you doing now..." Yunzhi tilted her head to look at him, "You are more and more able to say such things?"

"I can't help it..." Li Yan held the basket with his left hand, and naturally pulled Yun Zhi with his right hand, "Just this house is still burning, and there is no betrothal gift, so I can only say something nice."

"So it's not the truth, it's just to save some dowry..." Yunzhi answered the words solemnly, but couldn't help laughing, shaking the hands that were together, "The house is burning, but the village is still alive." , take me around?"

Li Yan nodded without hesitation: "Okay..."

This village is not big and the population is not large. Except for the fields, there are slightly old village houses. Compared with the villages that came all the way from the capital, there is no special scenery, but because Li Yan has lived for more than ten years When it falls into Yunzhi's eyes, it has a different meaning.

The well where Li Yan used to fetch water, the shade of a tree where he listened to others chatting, the forest where he picked up firewood and saw fireflies...

Walking through one place after another, the appearance of that lonely young man in his mind became more and more clear, which made Yun Zhi feel that maybe Li Yan really didn't care about the pain of the past at all, the one who was brooding It's actually me.

Because I feel sorry for all the things my sweetheart endured when we never met, but I know clearly that the past is irreparable after all, so I can only comfort Li Yan in this way, and even comfort myself.

In the future, I will treat Li Yan better.

After Yun Zhi said this from the bottom of her heart, she turned her head to look at the people around her.

They went all the way from the empty house at the entrance of the village to the burnt house at the end of the village, and then slowly turned back to the entrance of the village along the path outside the village, and finally rested under the big locust tree.

It took a long time to count, but it was nothing to Yun Zhi.But for Li Yan, who has been eating and drinking well since entering the capital, but neglects activities, it is already quite a distance.

Li Yan was a little tired, but he didn't care too much. He met Yunzhi's gaze with some confusion, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

"Shall I carry you back?" Yun Zhi finished speaking, without waiting for Li Yan's reaction, she got up and squatted in front of him, patted her shoulder, "Come on..."

The boy's figure is actually a bit thin, squatting there makes him look like a small one, but Li Yan clearly knows that no matter at any time, as long as he wants to lean over, his thin back can easily bear it. Own.

So he really leaned over and followed this posture, and planted a light kiss on Yunzhi's side face.

"Okay..." Li Yan straightened up, "It's my turn to carry you."

Yun Zhi covered the face that had just been kissed with one hand, turned around and looked at Li Yan in a daze, the moment her eyes met, her ears blushed inexplicably.

His cheeks were also hot, which made him feel incredible.

Along the way, he and Li Yan ate and walked together, getting tired of being together all day long.After all, they are young and energetic, and they have tried and explored many intimate things when they slept together at night.

Most of the time, Yun Zhi is open and generous, never shy about expressing her desires, let alone feel ashamed because of such things.

But he didn't expect that at this time, he would still be blushing because of Li Yan's behavior that could be regarded as innocent.

But Yunzhi is not an ordinary person after all, and he can still maintain his superficial composure and rare rationality.

He was still squatting on the ground, but he just turned his body around, looked up at Li Yan, and followed what he said just now: "You want to carry me?"

It was already dark, but his eyes were shining brightly, with obvious surprise, but also a little hope, Li Yan looked down from above, and couldn't help squatting down: "I seem to be a little thinner. , Then you saw it just now, I have done all kinds of farm work and housework, so don’t worry that I can’t carry you.”

Yun Zhi reached out and tapped his forehead lightly: "I don't want to part with your hard work!"

"Then I'll be happy..." Li Yan took another half step forward, leaned over and touched Yun Zhi's forehead, "Give me a chance?"

Yun Zhi pretended to think for a while, then nodded: "Okay then!"

In fact, Yunzhi has always been very clear that although Li Yan's health is not very good and he is prone to illness, he has never been a fragile person who needs protection and care.

He dared to sneak up on a tall bandit alone, drag Li Gui's body home in the heavy snow, and walk dozens of miles to Pingzhou City even when he was still sick.

It's not too difficult to carry yourself back to the empty house.

It's just that it's one thing to be clear, but you can't be completely rational when you get along with each other every day.

Yun Zhi leaned on Li Yan's back, wrapped his arms around his neck, and whispered in his ear, "Do you think I'm too careful sometimes, as if I don't trust you?"

"How can I be so ignorant?" Li Yan turned his head to look at the person on his shoulders, "Then do you think that I usually do those trivial things because I think you can't do it?"

Yun Zhi thought for a while, then nodded.

Long before they knew what they wanted, they had already reached an understanding and trust in each other, so there was really nothing to worry about.

He reassuredly buried his face on Li Yan's shoulder: "Tell me if you can't walk anymore."

Li Yan responded: "Okay..."

In fact, it is not that far away. Looking from the big locust tree, you can see the smoke from the empty roof.So even though he slowed down by carrying someone on his back, it didn't take long to reach the door of the empty house.

It's not to the point where Li Yan can't move.

The house has already been cleaned up briefly, and a few attendants are lighting a fire to prepare dinner. Chen Jin can't help in this kind of thing, so he took a few wild fruits picked halfway, squatted at the door and ate boredly. .

Then I saw Li Yan carrying Yun Zhi back.

This is really an unexpected picture.

Not to mention Li Yan, Chen Jin thought about it carefully in his mind, the last time Yunzhi was recited was a certain war a few years ago.

As a vanguard, Yunzhi was seriously injured because he went deep into the enemy's line, fell off the horse and became unconscious, and was carried all the way back to the camp by himself.

Thinking of this, Chen Jin didn't even care about the half-eaten fruit in his hand, he hurriedly stood up and went forward: "What's the matter?"

Afterwards, she saw Yun Zhi nimbly getting down from Li Yan's body, and she didn't forget to lean over to plant a light kiss on his face.

Chen Jin: "..."

"The buns and eggs from the village chief's house..." Yun Zhi turned around and handed out the basket that had been in her hand all this time. After meeting Chen Jin's gaze, she remembered and replied, "It's nothing, I went around the village. Turn around, Xuanzhi will carry me back when he is tired from walking."

"You're tired from walking... Forget it, I don't need to ask."

Chen Jin changed his words after speaking halfway.

During these days, or not only during this period, since Yun Zhi didn't know when he got acquainted with Li Yan, there were often some behaviors that he, who grew up with him, found inexplicable.

As time goes by, it's no surprise.

Probably even a person like Yunzhi would become unpredictable in front of the person he likes.

Chen Jin took the basket, and greeted Li Yan who was at the side: "There is well-filled water over there, wash your face and you can almost eat."

Li Yan nodded, and pulled Yun Zhi to turn around to wash his face.

Most of the way along the way is to live in the post station or inn, and there are very few times when you have to prepare your own food like this.

Although the attendants could make some food, but the conditions were limited after all, the finished products were not very good. Fortunately, there were steamed buns from the village chief's house, so they had a full meal.

It was completely dark, and the villagers, who were used to the sunrise and rested day in and day out, rested early, and the village was silent.

In order to get here from the last post station before dark, they set out on the road almost before dawn. The whole day's bumpy fatigue made it rare for a person like Chen Jin to feel a little tired. After chatting a few words about the next arrangement, they went back to the room early to rest.

Yun Zhi and Li Yan also went back to the room.

It is said to be a room, but this empty house is really simple and the doors and windows are not neatly arranged. Fortunately, there is a complete earth kang. After simple tidying up, it can barely stay for one night.

Li Yan spread out the quilt, and looked up to find that Yun Zhi was standing at the window, looking out at the dark night through the gap.

"What are you looking at?" Li Yan got off the bed, walked to Yun Zhi's side, and looked out together.

Yun Zhi shook her head: "I didn't see anything, I just felt..."

He thought about it, then turned to look at Li Yan, "We Yun family members may have a sense of mission. Ever since I entered the army, I have vowed to protect the people of Youzhou. But it may not be until today that I really understand. What is it that I have been protecting.

It's not the heavy land under your feet, nor the villages and towns. It's about letting every ordinary person sleep peacefully in such a dull night. "

When he said this, Li Yan kept looking at him quietly, until he couldn't help laughing embarrassedly: "It's actually a bit hypocritical to say this."

"No..." Li Yan had a gentle smile on his face, and his tone was serious and firm, "I have always been aware of your persistence, and I can also see what you have been doing for this persistence."
