Chu Qianxun carried Ye Peitian without difficulty.
She quickly left the place and turned into the jungle from the edge of the battlefield.
Ye Peitian’s ear heard the sound of wind. The woman holding him was a saint of the wind ability, and her rank was very low. However, she could also use the wind to accelerate her actions. When running, one could jump high in the air along the wind, and experience a thrill of moving forward.
Perhaps the woman was finally reluctant to only take a little, and decided to take him.
But she wasn’t like the others who tied him up and dragged him, but took care to avoid all his serious wounds, wrapped him in a warm coat and carried him in her arms.
Ye Peitian came from a separated and divorced family. From a young age, his father didn’t care much about him, and his stepmother was very cold. In his memory since childhood, he had never been held in such a shameful way.
The jungle was so densely black that he was captured by the darkness, like a drowner sinking into the abyss. His body stiffened and he was almost unable to breathe. He exhausted all his strength and forced himself not to tremble too much, lest the woman holding him could find his weakness.
Ye Peitian could be chased and killed by the world, but he would never show his weakness and be laughed at and pitied.
Fortunately, his head was leaning against her shoulder. The temperature of the human body passed from the skin’s contact surface. Ye Peitian could even clearly hear the sound of her heartbeat which was raised because of running.
This made him feel slightly better, because he knew he was not the only human being alive in the dark.
Chu Qianxun ran fast all the way from Beizhen back to the vicinity of Spring.
There was some anxiety in her mind. She had been in Beizhen for too long and was unable to buy the legendary potion. In the end, she had to take the risk to find Ye Peitian herself. She received a “healing potion” from him regardless of his wishes.
Nevertheless, the time had been too long. She was worried that when she went back, she would face Gao Yan’s cold body.
Chu Qianxun found an abandoned building in the wilderness outside the base. After the advent of the demons, the plants on the earth seemed to be nourished by the demons and grew rapidly with unusually strong vitality. They had almost covered most of the traces left by humans in the golden age.
This small building had also been completely covered with green vine plants.
Chu Qianxun opened the green vines and drilled in. She put Ye Peitian carefully on the ground.
The man in her arms maintained a completely stiff posture. He was motionless and silent.
“Wait a moment,” Chu Qianxun said. She flipped out a small night light from her backpack and turned on the switch.
The soft micro-light poured out in an instant, driving out the darkness in the house.
This was just a cheap plastic product that was not much bigger than table tennis, and the monotonous casing was a bit old. In the golden age, such a small lamp was only sold for one yuan on the ground. But now it was not easy to obtain. It was very practical and could be lit for a long time. Chu Qianxun used it very much in ordinary days.
At this moment, she took it out, lit it, and gently placed it in front of Ye Peitian.
The man lying on the ground seemed like a drowning man who was able to breathe suddenly. He opened his mouth and gasped a few times, and his stiff body relaxed.
Chu Qianxun took out her kettle and the only dry food she carried. She opened the lid and the packaging, and placed it in front of Ye Peitian.
“Sorry. I have to go,” she said.
Before preparing to drill out, Chu Qianxun looked back again.
The figure laid motionless on the ground, but his eyes were open. His gaze was fixed on the little light that shone lightly.
His eyes were reflected in the small and fragmented lights, and he no longer looked so deadly. He had a look similar to the one in her memory.
