Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 86 Brother Tribulation

Fortunately, after learning this lesson, Yazai calmed down a lot and followed Kumbu step by step, not daring to take another wrong step.

After passing through the peat swamp, the miasma became thinner and thinner, and disappeared completely after half an hour.

Kumbu nodded and said it was safe. I hurriedly sat on the ground, took out water from my bag, took off my sunglasses and rinsed my eyes.

"Did the bug get into the eye?" Kunbu asked.

I gave a vague grace, and Yazai immediately rushed up and asked me if it was okay, his tone was worried and guilty, he must have understood when the bug got in.

I shook my head and washed my eyes for a few minutes before they felt better.

Kumbu walked up to me, turned my face and said, "It's nothing serious, just a little red, and I'll be fine after a few days of rest. Be careful these few days."

Then he asked everyone to find a place to camp nearby, because it was already afternoon after such a toss, and my eyes were a little uncomfortable, so it's better to take a rest.

Lao Yan and Ms. Qiu pitched up the tent, and then the latter glanced at me and clicked his tongue twice: "It seems that you are not destined to be my apprentice. There will be problems in one or two days!"

"Hey." I smiled: "Maybe it's to hone my will, isn't it, Sister Qiu?"

She took out something from her bosom and threw it to me, and said lightly that she should practice throwing knives as soon as her eyes recovered, then she went to the side to discuss something with Lao Yan.

I looked at the things in my hand and smiled helplessly.It seems that Miss Qiu is also a knife-mouthed bean curd heart. What she threw to me was a small bottle of ointment. Seeing how she hides it next to her body, I am afraid that this ointment is of great value.

I picked out a small piece with my hands and wiped it around my eyes. I felt that the eyes were much more comfortable, and I decided that it was a good thing.

"Chang'an, thank you very much this time." Yazai came over from the side, scratching his head in embarrassment: "If it wasn't for me..."

I raised my hand to interrupt him: "Okay, it's not a big deal."

But it seems that Yazai is still a little sorry. I thought about it, maybe it is because he is more sensitive to eyes. After all, he became an orphan because of eye problems.

I didn't continue to comfort him, I just said that it's okay, this kind of thing is more comforting, and he felt awkward instead.

Fortunately, he is not a hypocritical person. He patted me on the shoulder and said that he would thank me by taking me to eat a few more hot pot meals when he returned to Yanjing. I gave him a blank look: "Can't you eat something else?"

Although hot pot is delicious, it is easy to get angry if you eat too many times.

He smiled and patted his chest to promise that he would take me to eat all the specialties in Yanjing.

"Okay, hurry up and tidy up yourself, and eat it with this body smell, you don't feel too panic!" I pushed him.

Fortunately, there was a big stream nearby, and he ran over with his clothes on, not caring about the crowds here, and washed himself clean with his bare buttocks.

In the evening, we lit the fire, because we couldn't figure out the situation in Taibai Mountain, and Miss Qiu didn't go hunting rashly, so we could only eat dry food.

"Sneeze!" While eating, Yazai suddenly sneezed fiercely, and a snot bubble immediately burst out.

He wiped it off casually, and continued to eat the dry food indifferently. Lao Yan glanced at him, stepped forward and touched his head: "Do you have a fever?"

"Fever? No." Yazai shook his head.

But Lao Yan snatched the dry food in his hand, hating iron for nothing and said: "Look at your face is flushed, you haven't had a fever yet? Why can't you even feel that you are sick?"

Hearing what Lao Yan said, I also felt that Yazai's blushing was a little abnormal. At first, I thought he was sitting by the fire to illuminate the fire, but now it looks like he has a fever.

Lao Yan reluctantly took out antipyretics from the bag and gave him the fever-reducing medicine, then drove him into the tent to let him rest, then he said to us helplessly: "It's just that Lao Xu is too spoiled with him! No, as soon as we leave Master, just like a baby."

Ms. Qiu snorted: "Who knows what Old Xu thinks, how could anyone be so stupid as a person in 701?"

I didn't talk to them on the side. Although listening to their words, they seem to look down on children, but their demeanor is not like this. The pampering in their eyes is really the same as that of children. I guess they actually want to return to 701. There must be someone as simple as Yazai.

We each ate dry food, leaving Kumbu to watch the night, and then we all went into the tent.

Lao Yan worriedly huddled in my tent with Yazai, checking his body temperature from time to time, while Miss Qiu was resting alone in the tent next to us.

"Old Yan, is he alright?" I looked at Yazai with some concern, only to see that his face was flushed, and he obviously had a high fever.

What surprised me was that Yazai took off his sunglasses, but his eyes were tightly closed, and I didn't see any difference, but I felt that his face looked more tender without the sunglasses covering it.

Lao Yan touched Yazai's head, and said with a sad face: "This kid hasn't suffered much since he followed Lao Xu, and Lao Xu took him to the grave before, and everything stood in front of him, this time I was negligent!"

Seeing Lao Yan's appearance, I smiled and comforted him and said, maybe this time Professor Xu agreed with us to bring the boy out, just to give him a chance to exercise?
"That's right." Lao Yan took his hand back, asked me to help the boy up, and stuffed him with another antipyretic.

After finishing these old smokes, let me go to rest first, and let him watch the boy.

My eyes are uncomfortable, and I'm not suitable for taking care of people all night, so I only let Lao Yan call me if something happened, and dragged my sleeping bag to the side to sleep.

"You...do these things all these years?"

"It's none of your business."

I don't know how long I slept, but I vaguely heard the voices of someone talking, one of which seemed to belong to Kumbu.

I suddenly became interested, struggled to open my eyes, moved to the side of the tent, and opened a crack to look outside.

I saw Kumbu standing with his back to the tent, and opposite him stood a person of similar stature, it was Tashi!
I thought of the look that Kumbu looked back before entering the miasma today. Now that I think about it, he must have felt that Tashi was following behind.

"Why don't you go back to southern Xinjiang?"

At this moment, Tashi suddenly spoke.

I was taken aback when I heard this, I remember Lao Yan said that the two of them fell out because of fighting for the Gu King?It was only after Kumbu joined 701 that Tashi could become the Gu King. Why does it look like he is inviting Kumbu back now?

Kunbu's voice was still emotionless, and the answer was still: It has nothing to do with you.

Tashi said sullenly: We are also brothers after all, we can't keep away from each other because of a Gu king, right?

"Heh." Kunbu sneered, his tone full of sarcasm.

Tashi wanted to say something else, but Kumbu added: "You'd better treat me as dead."

Tashi couldn't speak, so he could only stand like this until Kumbu aggressively asked him what purpose he had been following us.

"Didn't the little boy in your team tell you?" Tashi laughed, "It's just that what I'm looking for happened to be on the way with you. If it's not on the way, I won't follow."

I don't know if Kumbu believed it or not, but he told Tashi to leave with a colder voice.

"Southern Xinjiang is your home after all." Tashi said something, and in return for Kumbu's cold roll, he didn't say anything in the end, but just hid in the darkness dejectedly.

I don't know why, although Kumbu's voice hasn't changed, I can still hear his anger and a trace of sadness.

"Did you hear it all?"

Kumbu turned his back to me and said something. I touched my nose and climbed out of the tent, saying that I didn't mean it.

He glanced at me, obviously not believing it, and I was even more embarrassed, after all, it is really disgraceful to eavesdrop on the conversation between other brothers.

Kumbu didn't mean to pursue it, but just raised his hand and asked me to sit down.

Looking at his posture, I thought he was going to reveal the past between the two of us, but after I sat down, he was just silent, and that expressionless face always made me feel sad.

"Are you okay?" I asked hesitantly.

He shook his head and still didn't speak, so I fell silent too.I think maybe he doesn't need to talk at this time, he just wants to be quiet, but he doesn't want to be alone.

I just sat with him like this for most of the night, until Miss Qiu came out to change shifts: "Hehe, it's strange, seeing this posture, we talked all night long?"

Kunbu raised his head and glanced at Miss Qiu, and then at me. I nodded silently, and he got up and went back to the tent without saying a word.

"What's wrong with him?" Miss Qiu was a little puzzled.

I made a vague sentence, and then fled back to the tent under Miss Qiu's questioning eyes, only to hear Yazai talking nonsense.
