Let the Villain Go

Chu Qianxun dug up the yellow sand and dug Ye Peitian out of the ground.

He was mixed with yellow sand and blood stains. He was cold, and had completely lost his vital signs.

Chu Qianxun reached out and touched him gently. His head fell to the side weakly, and the corners of his mouth were all dry with blood. Chu Qianxun took his hand and shook it. His very fair and beautiful palm was now lacquered, and his nails were covered with blood and yellow sand. It slumped on Chu Qianxun’s hand unresponsively.

Chu Qianxun didn’t know how to describe her feelings at the moment. Over the years, she saw countless people die. From the initial fright and crying, she gradually became numb and indifferent.

But at this moment, looking at the cold body in front of her, her numb heart was caught in something, and there was a pain that was about to suffocate her.

…

Ye Peitian felt pain.

A large amount of fresh air surged into his lungs in an instant, as his senses gradually became clearer. The pain from the limbs became more clear.

He knew he was dead and got reborn again.

He was lying on a flatbed. He could hear the sound of wheels rolling on the ground.

Ye Peitian reluctantly opened his heavy eyelids and what entered his line of sight was the blue sky and white clouds, the sun was particularly good. A little golden light leaked between the leaves and sprinkled on him.

There was a person sitting beside him.

Realizing this, Ye Peitian’s heart tightened again.

He turned his head carefully, and saw the person he had expected sitting next to him in the front of the cart. She held the reins in her hand, with a thin grass in her mouth. The mule hurriedly pulled the cart.

The trees on both sides receded quickly, and from time to time one or two yellow leaves fell from the sky. Ye Peiting stared at the person. His neck, his body, his hands and feet were all painful, only his heart seemed to be soaked in warm water. It was sour and soft, the feeling was hard to explain.

Chu Qianxun turned his head and saw Ye Peitian awake. She showed a smile from her heart.

“You finally woke up,” she said happily.

She reached out a hand to check his temperature, pulled the blanket covering him, and covered him tightly.

“It’s okay. We are far away from the desert. There are too many people coming from the south. We will go north and avoid these people.”

Chu Qianxun was really happy. Although she had heard that Ye Peitian was an immortal, she was only relieved when his cold body slowly recovered its temperature, and he finally opened his eyes. 

“What do you need? Do you want to drink some water? Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?”

“Sorry,” a hoarse, dry voice rang around her.

Chu Qianxun drove the newly purchased mule in her hand and glanced at him. She thought he was talking about the things in the castle before.

“You don’t have to apologize to me. I know that you were aware of the upcoming enemy, and of implicating me, so you drove me away.” She sighed softly, “But, if you encounter such a thing again in the future, can you tell me the truth?”

In the future, he should stay far away from her. Ye Peitian thought bitterly in his heart that a devil like him would only bring danger to those around him.

In fact, when he sent away Chu Qianxun, he was determined that he would never approach her, the only person who had been gentle to him.

But at this moment, there seemed to be a block of dry cotton in his throat, and the sentence “You should leave me” was stuck in his throat. No matter how many times he opened his mouth, he couldn’t say it.

He was full of fatigue and weakness. He was really greedy for the warmth and was eager to stay with this person for a while.

While he was deeply guilty of his selfishness, he was immersed in an inexplicable joy. His heart had two distinct emotions of self-blame and pleasure.

Chu Qianxun looked at the clear eyes repeatedly looking at hers several times. Eventually, the yellow sand-covered head moved slightly in her direction, and the soft and slightly curly hair leaned towards her.

The first time she saw these eyes, they were cold and violent, full of hate for the world. But at this moment, in this forest path, under the little sunlight, these eyes that were looking at her were wet eyes that seemed to be filled with grievances, he wanted to talk to her.

Chu Qianxun’s heart softened, and she raised her hand and gently rubbed his hairy.

Previously, Ye Peitian was just a stranger who made her feel a little guilty. She took care of the patient, but she didn’t care too much about the physical contact.

But at the moment her mindset changed a little bit, and she felt that such small movements were somewhat inappropriate.

She pointed her finger to Ye Peitian’s neck, “What’s the matter with this? Can’t you take it off?”

“It doesn’t matter,” he said. As if this was just a trivial matter.

Because of his increasingly powerful regeneration ability, those who came to arrest him either cut off his hands and feet, or severely wounded his body with a weapon that had a sustained damage effect. Even such special shackles were made. But for him, it wasn’t a big deal, by force, it could always be removed from his neck.
