"came back?"

Jiang Ning leaned against the door of the hotel, and was instructing Shen San to move various instruments. When she turned around, she saw the three-person group who had gone out to explore the road in the morning came back early, and she was surprised for a while.What was even more unexpected was that the weakest one among them got into the room as soon as she came back, and she didn't even come out for dinner, everything revealed a strange feeling.

At dinner, Jiang Ning rarely sat next to Shen Wangyan.

"Could it be that you guys bullied her?" Jiang Ning's eyes wandered between the two for a long time.

Jun Zhi ate in silence, neither speaking nor showing any expression.

Shen Wangyan, on the other hand, sighed invisibly and put down the chopsticks in his hand.

He said: "I will ask Shen San to take her back tomorrow."

Jiang Ning was shocked: "You are crazy, you let her go now, who will 'light up'..." Before she finished speaking, her voice became lower and lower, as if she was telling Shen Wangyan that only the two of them could understandwhisper.Jun Zhi was the only one who could hear her voice clearly. When she said "point the soul", the movements of her hands paused for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

Shen Wangyan raised his head, feeling an inexplicable emotion that couldn't be vented, a turbid air in his chest and lungs was brought out by a short and sharp cough.Since he arrived in Guyu, it has been a long time since he coughed so badly.

"She is not from the same world as us, she is just an ordinary person." Shen Wangyan's face was pale and frightening, except for a smear of blood on his lips, "My future has already been decided, but her future should not be up to us."Decide."

Jun Zhi looked at him.

The young master of the Shen family sighed, "She's still a little girl."

...

Jun Zhi came up from the robbery cave with her in his arms. The little girl was still in shock. At first, he had the intention to laugh at her, but later he found that she was really scared.

The word fear is far away from him, and she reminds him of himself many years ago, the self who was afraid of the future and wanted to retreat but had nowhere to go.It's not that he didn't see Junzhi's bloody left hand, and he also knew that these minor injuries were insignificant to him.Jun Zhi is the same as him, they have already been scarred and used to these pains, but she is not.

She is a normal person who has never experienced darkness and is as clean as a white paper.

She also has the feeling of pain and the ability to cry.

After the little girl came out, she kept holding Junzhi's hand, crying like a tearful person, and kept saying sorry, even if she couldn't cry anymore and her voice became hoarse, she kept apologizing silently.Jun Zhi looked at him helplessly, this was the first time Shen Wangyan didn't know what to say.

Nothing moves a man more than a girl's tears.

Thinking of the little girl who was so scared by grandma when we first met, thinking of her unconsciously following him all the way to Ya'an, thinking of her thinking that all this was just an ordinary trip.

Young Master Shen suddenly looked away, why bother to embarrass a little girl.

...

Jiang Ning laughed bloodily and cruelly after hearing his words: "Shen Wangyan, you don't think you still have the right to choose, do you?"

Shen Wangyan frowned: "This is my business."

Jiang Ning sneered, and slapped the table with one hand, wishing she could grab the young master in front of her by the collar and beat him up.Probably because the murderous aura in her whole body was too presumptuous, just as Shen Wangyan felt the danger, someone had already stopped him and Jiang Ning.Jun Zhi blocked Jiang Ning's left hand, so that the wound that had been bandaged with gauze leaked a little blood, dripping on Jiang Ning's fair wrist, and the sandalwood was wanton.

Jiang Ning just found out that Jun Zhi was injured, she was briefly surprised, her eyes drifted to the closed room on the second floor.

After coughing lightly, Young Master Shen said flatly, "Since we let her go back, I will finish the 'soul-pointing' myself."

Jun Zhi looked sideways in shock, his face full of disapproval.

Instead, Jiang Ning withdrew her hand and sat back in her seat.

Shen Wangyan nodded towards Junzhi, whose face was frosty.He shook his head again, and Jun Zhicai looked back at Jiang Ning, confirming that she had regained her composure and would not make a sudden attack, and then sat back in her seat.

"Would you like to make a bet?" Jiang Ning said.

Young Master Shen put his hand on his lips, and was a little surprised by her words: "What bet?"

"Just bet," Jiang Ning sneered, "She's not an ordinary little girl."

...

In the second half of the night, Bao Le couldn't fall asleep, and the scene in the tomb kept flashing back and forth in her mind during the day.The feeling that she was out of breath being strangled by the rope, the feeling that she was on the verge of death when she stepped on the ground, the familiar scent of sandalwood... and the world where there was only blood left.

Before she came, she really thought that her work was just like what was introduced in the Discovery column. Everyone used various professional instruments, wore special protective clothing, shuttled between large and small tomb pits, inspected day and night,Hold meetings, draw pictures, rush to repair various cultural relics, study together, work together, and call it a day together.

At least not today.

I never thought that because of my delay, another person would be injured.

She could have argued vigorously, she was just a restorer, and no one asked her to have superhuman abilities like them.But when someone got hurt in front of you, Bao Le realized that these were all excuses.

She just couldn't do such a job, but naively thought she could.

Bao Le shrunk himself into a ball, leaned against the old brick wall of the hotel, and leaned quietly for a long time.

...

Shen San was hungry in the middle of the night, cooked a bag of instant noodles, and sat happily at the dining table in the lobby, ready to eat, when a black-haired and white shadow floated in front of him, almost scaring him into the hospital on the spot.

Take a closer look, isn't this the technical one in their team, although it won't be tomorrow.

Shen San saw Bao Le holding an iron box, eyes swollen like walnuts, staring at his noodle bowl motionless, wondering if this girl got up in the middle of the night to look for food?He handed over the noodle bowl and asked cautiously, "Noodles?"

Bao Le shook his head, and after a while he sniffed and asked, "What does it smell like?"

"Braised beef."

She is a girl who can't be hungry. She didn't eat dinner at night because she was in a bad mood. Although she is not in a good mood now, her stomach still growled twice.Bao Le took the chopsticks from Shen San's hand, sucking them with relish.

Shen San is quite a bit older than her, seeing the little girl like this, a sense of fatherly love arises spontaneously.

"Eat slowly, when I go back to the city tomorrow, I will eat hot pot. There is nothing that one hot pot can't solve. If there is, I will have another one." Shen San comforted her.

Bao Le raised his head: "Back to the city?"

Shen San said: "The young master asked me to ride three rounds to send you back tomorrow morning."

Bao Le suddenly felt that the noodles in the bowl were no longer fragrant. She lowered her head and stared at the oily noodle soup for a long, long time, and her eye circles became more and more red, which made Shen San wonder if she had said something wrong.

Whether the little girl doesn't like to eat hot pot, or don't like to sit in three rounds, you can analyze it.

"Have you seen Jun Zhi?" Bao Le asked him, "I checked in the room, but he's not there."

Shen San was ecstatic, and finally had another question he could answer: "Master Jun likes high places, if you can't find them, just look at the roofs and eaves, you can always find them."

...

The hotel house is said to have two floors. In fact, the roof is also accessible, but generally no one is idle, so the store uses the space at the stairway to pile up firewood.Bao Le didn't know if Jun Zhi was there, but judging from the traces of firewood, no one had been there.But she changed her mind and thought again, if Jun Zhi wants to get on the roof, do he need to take the stairs?

She moved the firewood one way, and when she went upstairs, she accidentally touched a branch, and because she was wearing slippers, a small cut was made on the delicate skin of her ankle.

Bao Le wasn't thinking about it right now, he didn't even notice the wound, he just wanted to go up to the roof to have a look.

Fortunately, Jun Zhi was really sitting on the edge of the roof, with a pair of long legs hanging outside.

"Aren't you afraid of falling?" Bao Le walked over tremblingly. Although she was not afraid of heights, there was no guardrail on the roof, so she was somewhat afraid when walking.

Jun Zhi didn't move, he heard her when she went upstairs, even when she was chatting with Shen San in the lobby.

He said, "No."

Bao Le sat down beside him. Although she didn't dare to hang her legs outside the eaves like him, she could still sit on the inside beside him.

"Let me see your left hand."

Jun Zhi was stunned for a moment, and said lightly: "It's a small matter."

His tone was the same as when he was perfunctory Shen Wangyan that day in Shen's old house.Bao Le didn't talk nonsense with him, he grabbed his left hand and opened the iron box that he carried up with him. It turned out to be a medicine box.She carefully removed the gauze layer by layer, seeing that the blood stained outside the gauze had solidified into a deep red, Baole's heart twitched.

Breaking one's hand for three points, how could it be a trivial matter.He insisted not to go to the hospital. If he dealt with it casually, his left hand might be useless.

However, when the last layer was removed and the wound under the gauze was exposed, Bao Le was so shocked that he couldn't say a word.

The wound that was supposed to cut across the entire palm turned out to be a shallow mark no bigger than a fingernail on the palm.She was a little unbelievable, and checked his left hand over and over again, only to find that there was really only such a small wound.She immediately thought of the day when Shen Wangyan removed his gauze, it seemed that there were only bloodstains and no wounds.

Jun Zhi stretched out his right hand, gently stroking the wound on the heart of his left hand.

This time, Bao Le saw with his own eyes that although the wound was small, it was a real wound. Under his fingertips, it slowly glued itself together, and the wound became shallower to the point of disappearing.

She raised her head, and he was also looking down at her, his eyes met, his eyes were as dark as an abyss.

Jun Zhi took out a small knife, turned the handle of the knife, and handed it to Bao Le.

Bao Le seemed to have guessed something, but he couldn't believe it, and didn't dare to take his knife.

She heard him sigh slightly, and cut the tip of his thumb with the knife himself.Every weapon on his waist is regularly maintained, and this one is also chipped like mud, and after a while, red blood drops gushed out from the tip of his thumb.

Jun Zhi wiped off the blood on his thumb with disapproval, and put the knife away again.There was not even a scar left on the finger that was wiped clean.

It's not that he won't get hurt, but the speed of wound healing is several times that of normal people, and this kind of slight scratch can heal in an instant.So no need to go to the hospital or even treat the wound.

"You kind of thing, I've only seen it in sci-fi movies." Bao Le covered the medicine box in embarrassment, thinking, this thing is useless now.

Jun Zhi saw that she was not as natural as when she first came up.

"Don't be afraid," he said, "I won't hurt you."

Bao Le froze for a moment.

The moon was very bright that night, probably because of the good air in the countryside.In short, although there are no extra lights around, they can still see each other clearly, even the slightest emotion on their faces.

Jun Zhi suddenly supported the eaves with his hands, turned over all of a sudden, while Bao Le was still in a daze, squatted down beside her, reached out and gently grabbed her right leg, or right calf to be precise.It was only when Bao Le was concentrating on treating the wound that he realized that it was the cut on her ankle when she came up, and now it was dripping with blood.

Jun Zhi's way of dealing with wounds is very professional, if he is not often injured, he would not be so skillful.

He even picked out the shavings of firewood bit by bit from the wound before helping her wrap the wound with gauze.

Bao Le lowered his head and asked him: "Your wound healed so quickly, but when you were injured, did it hurt more than ordinary people?"

Jun Zhi trembled slightly, looking up at her with complicated eyes.

After treating the wound, Bao Le hugged his knees and sat down again. She didn't expect Jun Zhi to answer her questions. After getting along these days, she seemed to be able to accept his habitual silence.

Bao Le said: "I had a serious illness when I was young, and when I recovered, I couldn't see the blood. Most of the time, I was fine, but sometimes I couldn't control myself like today, and I was always immersed in my own world., unless someone can wake me up loudly. My grandma said that I am not afraid of seeing blood, but afraid of facing my true self, am I useless?"

Jun Zhi shook his head.

She turned to look at him: "I know your secret, and now you know my secret. You see, everyone has secrets, it's nothing strange."

He slowly realized that the little girl in front of him seemed to be comforting him.

Bao Le looked at the night sky: "You have saved me twice, I believe that you will not hurt me, and there is no reason to be afraid of you. Jun Zhi, when you were in the Shen family's old house, you and Shen Wangyan said that I was an 'outsider'', but now you take the initiative to tell me this, which means that I am no longer an 'outsider'."

This time, Jun Zhi took a long time to nod solemnly.

Bao Le patted his face, took a deep breath, and stood up.

"I made a decision."

He looked at her, quietly waiting for her next words.

Bao Le raised his hand and held the moon in his palm.

"I want to try to go further, because you believe in me," she said with a smile while looking at him sideways, "I also want to believe in myself once."

...

"There may be poisonous insects in the forest, prepare insect repellent powder and quicklime," Shen Wangyan put on gloves and elbow pads, turned around and said to several members of the Shen family, "You two stay and finish the geological analysis.Stay, and the rest will go into the mountain with me."

"Yes, master."

Bao Le woke up very early, and since the first person sat down in the lobby downstairs, she has been paying attention to every move below.Before Master Shen finished speaking, she took a deep breath and pushed open the door.

"I'll go with you."

Shen Wangyan looked up in disbelief, only to realize that she was not joking.She woke up in the morning, put on the hiking pants as Jiang Ning said before, and tied the legs of the pants tightly into the military boots.Before putting on the jacket, she added a layer of elbow pads and chest pads. Although this outfit made her sweat, she dared not not wear it.She is not as good as them, so she can't protect others, so at least protect herself, and don't hold them back.

Jiang Ning downstairs winked at the little girl, and looked at Shen Wangyan provocatively by the way.

"I know you guys are going to send me back to the city, but I won't go back," Bao Le said seriously, "don't dislike me for slowing me down, I can learn to protect myself, but you can't find someone better than me in a short time."Good restorer. Only I can do this job."

That look is completely different from yesterday. When you feel that she is fragile and needs protection, the little girl tells you with practical actions that she can grow, has her own determination, and also has her own pride.

"Shen San, you come with me." Young Master Shen sighed.

Shen San was extremely excited: "Yes!"

Bao Le went downstairs and asked them, "Let's go now?"

Shen Wangyan reached out from behind to grab the strap of her backpack, and pulled it out. The little girl didn't wear the chest strap and belt of the backpack, and the bag was pulled off easily.He unzips it and checks the contents of the bag—she has all the tools, from camera to flashlight, brushes, carving knife, calipers, plaster, adhesives, chemical paints.There is also a comb and a small mirror in the safe layer of the bag. After all, it is a girl.

He opened his bag, took out five compressed biscuits, and put a jug of water into her bag.While putting it in, he took out an iron telescopic shovel, which should be the heaviest thing in her bag.

"It's not your turn to use this yet," he said.

Bao Le put the bag back on her back, muttering that the shovel was for her to use just in case and for self-defense, and don't know if anyone heard it.

Shen Wangyan handed over a walkie-talkie: "Take it."

"Hey, hey, hey!" She had never played with this thing before, so she pressed the talk button in a very novel way, and bluffed.

For the first time, Shen Wangyan understood why Jiang Ning always said she was noisy.

"Fasten the chest strap and waist belt of the bag, and don't leave your bag unless it is absolutely necessary"

"it is good."

"Set off."
