Ji Shuangshuang was stunned, seeing him take the snake and turn to leave, she immediately pulled on his sleeves, feeling embarrassed.

"Sorry, I was reckless just now, don't worry. That... "Thank you for saving my life."

With that, she pointed at the black snake in his hand.

If Yan Qianxu had not appeared in time, the snake would have bitten her leg.

Yan Qianxu stomped his feet, his indifferent gaze landing on the finger she was gently pulling at his sleeve.

It was a very thin finger, long and soft. Occasionally, there were one or two rough areas, which were probably the result of him getting used to rough work.

Ji Shuangshuang did not have any of the ancients' habits, she directly went forward to tug at Yan Qianxu's clothes, and carelessly asked: "Big brother, I still don't know what your name is."

The corner of Yan Qianxu's eyes twitched, he stared at the sleeves that she had grabbed. This was the first time he had met such a thick-skinned girl.

"Eh? Brother, don't go. You haven't answered my question. "Hey!"

However, the more he shouted, the further away he got, and after a while he could no longer see his back. Ji Shuangshuang was lost in her thoughts, the last time they met, she did not speak, and this time, she did not speak, could it be that she was a mute?

It was rather pitiful.

Thinking of this, her heart became a bit more balanced.

The original owner lived in seclusion in the mountains with her parents for a while. She had a special constitution and had a strange smell that attracted all kinds of snakes and insects.

Later on, my aunt read the medical books and soaked her body in various medicinal herbs before she covered up the smell.

Ji Shuangshuang looked at the grass around her feet. Could it be that she had died again?

"What a nuisance!" Ji Shuangshuang muttered to herself, this kind of physique would definitely be troublesome in the future, she had to think of a way to solve it.

Snakes could be seen everywhere on the mountain. It was no longer safe for her to stay here. She had to leave as soon as possible.

Ji Shuangshuang carried the basket full of grass and chased after Yan Qianxu down the mountain. The sky had already begun to darken.

She walked rather slowly. Coupled with the fact that the mountain path was rugged, she accidentally sprained her leg. It was so painful that she sucked in a breath of cold air.

Just as he was thinking about how to limp down the mountain, he suddenly saw a figure appear in front of his. Yan Qianxu seemed to have realized the situation behind him and slowed down, as if he was deliberately waiting for her.

Seeing that, Ji Shuangshuang held onto a stick and stood up, stumbling as she continued to walk down the mountain.

He thought to himself, this person doesn't want to look so cold on the outside. With the speed at which he was walking just now, he might have already returned to the village by now.

After walking forward for a while, the sky had completely darkened, and the road under their feet could no longer be seen clearly.

Ji Shuangshuang squatted down and rubbed her ankle, "Big brother, are you sure this is the right path?" She felt like she had walked for a long time, but she was still on the mountain.

Yan Qianxu was sure that it was this path. The reason why it was so slow was entirely because her movements were inconvenient. But seeing her frown, Yan Qianxu stopped in his tracks.

"Elder sister …" Elder sister, where are you? "

Xiaoqiu's voice transmitted over. It turned out that she saw that Ji Shuangshuang did not return home this late, so she came to look for her.

"Xiaoqiu, it's so late, why did you run out?" Ji Shuangshuang looked at her thin clothes. The wind was strong tonight, so she would definitely catch a cold.

"Sister, what's wrong with your foot? I'll carry you down the mountain. " Xiaoqiu said as she squatted and was about to carry Ji Shuangshuang up.

"No need, I can do it." Ji Shuangshuang glanced at the basket behind him. She had no choice but to throw down the grass that she had cut today.

Yan Qianxu frowned, the night was getting darker, bringing the two girls along was not convenient to travel, and any more accidents would be harder to deal with.

After thinking for a moment, he turned back and found an empty land under the stone wall. The mountain wind was weaker here, so it would be safer to stay alive and spend the night there.

Yan Qianxu waved his hands, signalling for the two sisters to come over and stay at the bottom of the stone wall in the empty ground.

After figuring out what Yan Qianxu meant, Ji Shuangshuang couldn't help but take a few more glances at the person in front of her. It was just that, she herself was fine, with Xiaoqiu's frail body, she might not be able to endure the night on the mountain.

Ji Shuangshuang looked at the empty space in the middle of the land, and prepared to light a fire here, in order to protect herself from the cold in the night, "Xiaoqiu, stay here and don't move, I will go gather some dried wood."

She was too embarrassed to bother the mute guy, so she could only do it herself. Just as she was about to stand up, Yan Qianxu stopped her with a look.

Yan Qianxu stood up and walked to the side, giving her a look that said 'Don't move here'.

He moved quickly and disappeared.

Ji Shuangshuang looked at his disappearing figure and suddenly smiled. It was possible that she had never felt the warmth of being cared for and taken care of by a stranger ever since she arrived in this world.

The mountain wind was not as strong anymore. Ji Shuangshuang carried Xiaoqiu in her arms, and on the mountain, the sounds of animals could be heard from time to time.

After a while, just as Ji Shuangshuang was about to go find someone, Yan Qianxu appeared. Other than the bundle of firewood on his shoulder, he was also holding a rabbit in his hand.

Ji Shuangshuang was shocked. It was so late at night, she did not even know where he caught the rabbit. No wonder she took the time to do so.

"Big brother, you're amazing!" Leave the rabbit to me, I guarantee that it will be done roasting in a while! "

Yan Qianxu did not wait for her to make a move and put down the firewood.

The fire was lit and the rabbits were ready. The three of them surrounded the fire and felt warm.

"Thank you for today. Otherwise, if Xiaoqiu and I spent the night on the mountain, I would know how dangerous it would be." Ji Shuangshuang thanked her generously.

As expected, Yan Qianxu remained expressionless. After nodding slightly, he placed the rabbit on the fire and started to roast it.

Ji Shuangshuang was even more sure of her conjecture now. It was a pity that such a handsome young man was actually a mute.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, Ji Shuangshuang had nothing to say.

In a place like this where there was no mobile phone and no internet, talking was the only way to communicate. Ji Shuangshuang chose a special story to listen to, and Xiaoqiu clapped.

After the picnic, Yan Qianxu's expression slowly relaxed, no longer as cold as before.

Ji Shuangshuang filled the fire with firewood and suddenly remembered her life when she was young. She was an orphan who grew up in a welfare home.

Her eccentric nature slowly became more cheerful. She had her first friend from childhood, the first team. Everyone shared their hardships, trained together, ate together and slept together.

Who would've thought that not long after becoming a police officer, Big Boss Black would shoot him in the heart and muddle along to this strange era?

Unknowingly, a tear fell from the corner of his eye. It was ice-cold under the caress of the mountain breeze.
