Chapter 2617 Companion (31)

In the afternoon.

The sun is getting hotter and fiercer.

Looking around, there is only the scorching and dazzling sun hanging in the sky. There is no wind. Even the white clouds are hidden in unknown places to avoid the scorching sun.

The long official road filled with dust was exposed to the sun, and the land seemed to be melted by the sun. Steam was rising, and the hot and unbearable air hit from all directions.

Even if there are trees on both sides to block it, it is difficult to resist the heat coming from all directions like a steamer.

It's dry and stuffy, and the heat makes your throat feel hot and dry.

Unbearable thirst.

The outermost layer of the body seemed to be suffocated.

It was red from the sun and boiling with heat.

During a break, Huo Yuangong stopped by a creek.

The stream is next to a green bamboo forest. The bamboo forest is tall and densely grown, and the slender bamboo leaves silently block the sun.

The ground is covered with fallen bamboo leaves, which are withered and yellow, reflecting the sunlight that sparsely penetrates the bamboo leaves.

It was still oppressively hot.

Fortunately, the small stream next to the forest is cool.

It is crystal clear and gurgling from a distance.

Occasionally, a few green bamboo leaves float on the stream, like small boats, drifting uncertainly and can only sway along the current.

Keep drifting, keep drifting.

Until he was picked up by a soft and white hand.

Gently, place it under the sun, the light refracts the water droplets on the bamboo leaves.

A beautiful rainbow appeared, reflecting the bamboo leaves, which were as thin as paper, and the white fingers seemed to glow in the sunlight.

Dazzlingly white.

The owner of the finger raised his head and squinted his eyes slightly, staring at the bamboo leaves for a while.

Seemingly feeling a little bored, she put down the leaf casually, turned around, and looked at the man who was tying the horse's rope.

He had his back to her, was dressed in black, and looked cold and inhumane.

The air was obviously so hot that even breathing felt painful and stuffy, and everything felt hot.

Looking at him, it seemed that the air around him had cooled down a lot.

It's cold, like ice that won't break apart.

Not far away, but with a sense of distance.

The atmosphere became stagnant, silent, and extremely quiet.

It was so quiet that you could only hear the sound of clear flowing water from the creek, which was endless and as clear as a silver bell.

Yun Si stared at him for a while, until he tied the rope and turned around.

The two people looked at each other, his eyes were secretive, and there was no emotion on his wheat-colored, tough face.

He is very thoughtful and hides all his thoughts in his heart.

He didn't say anything, just looked at her calmly.

It's like being angry, but not like being angry.

It's worse than a woman's heart, it's as deep as a needle in the sea and can't be touched.

"..." Yun Si opened her mouth slightly, thinking about what to say... to break the silence at this moment.

She didn't want to, but saw him walking over, bending down and pulling her up.

He took her hand and led her under the shade of the tree.

Now, the sun can no longer reach her.

She blinked and stared at him.

"Is it hot?"

He took out a black handkerchief from his pocket and handed it over gently, as if he wanted to wipe her sweat.

The tone was still the same, without any excessive emotion.

He really didn't seem to be angry.

At least, not angry at her.

Yun Si shook her head, "It's not hot."

He hummed and she didn't answer, so he wiped her hands with a handkerchief.

While wiping, he lowered his eyes and spoke in a very light voice.

"What do you think about that matter?"
