Chapter 116: Finding Out That He Sacrificed His Own Life.

Outside, the rain started pouring down unpreparedly, and the thunder rumbled as if hitting their eardrums. That sound was extremely frightening. While the rain poured down, it was as if the only noise left behind in the whole world was the sound of the rain drops hitting the ground.

In this kind of weather, it was impossible for Xiao YuAn to go out to pick up wild fruits. In order to fill up their stomachs, Xiao YuAn emptied the bag of rice lying in the corner, and decided to try and cook some porridge again.

This time, Xiao YuAn learned his lesson and didn’t add ginger to the porridge.

But he did put some garlic into the porridge…..

When it was ready, Xiao YuAn tasted it.

‘Mmm… It’ll be better if I add a little bit of ginger!!! This tastes awful!!!’

Xiao YuAn painfully reproached himself for wasting food, and just when he was about to pour out the porridge, he suddenly heard Yan HeQing say: “Is it ready?”

Xiao YuAn couldn’t help but shake his hands. Just a few moments ago, the atmosphere between them was very strange to Xiao YuAn, so he simply replied: “It’s ready. But, it tastes too bad to be eaten. Don’t worry, I’ll think of another way to get food.”

However, Yan HeQing fumbled over and sat down: “It’ll be alright, give me a bowl”

Xiao YuAn swallowed with some difficulty: “I’m serious…. It’s not good….”

Yan HeQing insisted: “It won’t hurt eating it.”

Xiao YuAn couldn’t say no to him, and when he remembered that last time Yan HeQing hadn’t eaten the porridge he cooked; he thought that this time, after eating a single spoonful, Yan HeQing will think that his own life is more valuable than eating this life-threatening porridge. So, after thinking it over, Xiao YuAn took a small bowl, and handed it to Yan HeQing.

Yan HeQing scooped up a spoonful of porridge and ate it. After trying to swallow it for a long time, he said as if nothing had happened: “It’s not bad.”

Xiao YuAn: “…..”

‘I knew that love blinded people, but I didn’t know that it could also make his sense of taste disappear! How can you say that it’s not bad, Yan-ge? Doesn’t your conscience hurt?!’

Yan HeQing didn’t mind that the porridge was hard to eat, and naturally, Xiao YuAn didn’t mind either. The two of them managed to fill their stomachs, however, the sound of the thunderstorm outside didn’t seem to be abating at all.

“Why is it suddenly raining so heavily…..” Xiao YuAn mumbled to himself as he looked out of the window.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a deafening sound coming from somewhere not too far away, as if something had collapsed and fallen to the ground. Even the wooden cabin seemed to tremble with the loud noise. The candles inside the cabin were also flickering from the wind blowing in through the broken window, causing a frightening sensation.

Xiao YuAn was startled as he held onto the window and looked out. Outside, it was really dark and the trees were shaking; he wasn’t able to see anything clearly, but he could feel the rain on his face brought by the strong wind. Xiao YuAn thought for a moment, shook out the straw raincoat that had accumulated some dust due to the passing of time, and draped it over his body. As he walked outside the wooden cabin, he looked back at Yan HeQing and said: “Something might’ve collapsed outside, I’ll go check it out.”

Yan HeQing instantly frowned and said: “Don’t go, it’s raining too heavily. It’s extremely dangerous to go outside.”

Xiao YuAn replied: “It’ll be alright. I know what I’m doing, and in case something did collapse, it’ll be dangerous for us if it also falls on top of the wooden cabin. So I’ll go take a quick look.”

After saying that, Xiao YuAn opened the door and rushed out. The wind was strongly blowing outside, and the rain was pouring down in torrents. It was as if the earth on the mountain was shaking after being provoked by the rainstorm.

Yan HeQing didn’t stop Xiao YuAn, but when he saw him rushing through the rain curtain, he felt as if his heart was stuck on his throat. However, right the next moment, Xiao YuAn rushed back, howling as he ran: “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go!! It’s collapsing!! It’s right up there!!!! A landslide! A landslide! I’ll bury Zhang Baizu’s big mouth when I get back home!”

Yan HeQing was dragged outside by Xiao YuAn. The heavy rain hit their bodies wildly, and the dazzling lightning cut through the sky. Yan HeQing saw the falling stones and trees covered in mud rolling down the cliff. After the lightning, the world fell into darkness again, followed by the loud sound of thunder.

Suddenly, Xiao YuAn remembered something and stopped running. He fiercely touched his face drenched in rain water as he began to say: “No, no, no…….”

‘The disasters kept on piling up one after the other! I left the red fruits, and the tumeric I had picked up for Xie Chungui in the cabin! Without the small red fruit, I won’t be able to disguise my voice in front of Yan HeQing!’

Xiao YuAn gripped Yan HeQing’s arm and shouted as loud as he could: “Wait for me here! I’ll be right back!”

Right after he said that, Xiao YuAn didn’t dare to hesitate. He turned around and ran back to the wooden cabin.

Suddenly, another bolt of lightning pierced through the sky. Under this dazzling white light, Yan HeQing saw that a tree trunk was falling down the slope right towards Xiao YuAn! And where that tree trunk was falling, it was Xiao YuAn’s blind spot! He wasn’t on guard!

Yan HeQing’s eyes shrank, and without any hesitation, he ran as fast as he could.

After the lightning fell, the surroundings fell into darkness again, and a thunderclap exploded in Xiao YuAn’s ears. Because of that, he couldn’t hear anything except for the thunder, and even his ears began to hurt a little due to the loud noise.

Naturally, he didn’t see nor hear that not that far away from him, Yan HeQing used his back to block the fallen tree trunk.

The tremendous impact had almost displaced Yan HeQing’s internal organs. He was knocked to the ground and rolled down several times along the hillside until he stabilized himself. The cold rain mercilessly stole the warm from Yan HeQing’s body temperature, and the way the rain poured on him with such intensity, made him unable to open his eyes.

Yan HeQing tried to take a deep breath, but the heavy rain blocked his mouth and nose, freezing his body all over. Yan HeQing put his hands on the ground and stumbled, trying to get up and walk towards where Xiao YuAn told him to stay. However, as soon as he stood up, his heart and lungs felt like they were being strangled and split open by a sharp blade; he felt such an intense amount of pain that he wasn’t able to breathe at all.

With blurred eyes and ringing ears, Yan HeQing took a few heavy breaths, when suddenly, he heard Xiao YuAn’s voice calling out to him.

His voice was mixed with the sound of rain and thunder, and it was really hard for Yan HeQing to hear it clearly. He felt that the voice sounded both distant and near at the same time.

Yan HeQing pressed his muffled chest and followed Xiao YuAn’s voice. He wanted to reply, but before his voice could come out, he suddenly felt an iron taste invading his mouth before he started to violently cough a mouthful of blood. After that, Yan HeQing felt as if the sky began to spin around and his consciousness blurred, as he fell straight forward.
