Chapter 277 We won’t die!
Chapter 277 We won’t die!
She took his hand, put his arm around her neck, and helped him rush into the snowfield.
The man who was cheated by them will definitely not let them go easily. As long as they have not walked out of this strange place, they will be caught by the man sooner or later.
There was a huge gap in strength between them and that man. They were able to jump into the ice coffin only thanks to that man's arrogance and their plan to avoid him when their sea of consciousness merged.
There was only one chance, and since she had already deceived him by pretending to be controlled, there would be no second chance.
But this snowfield was really huge, with no end in sight. Jiang Liqian supported Xu Youan and walked for a long, long time. The temperature of his body dropped at a very fast rate, and his hands and feet seemed not to belong to him anymore.
This feeling was as if she had returned to the year when her biological parents gave up on her. The little girl nestled in her wet nurse's arms, scared and helpless, with only her wet nurse by her side, holding her and running forward desperately.
Behind him there were cries, curses, and a blazing fire that illuminated half of the night.
She suppressed the fear in her heart and dared not cry out. Her wet nurse protected her and carefully avoided the crowd along the way, but she was still forced into a desperate situation.
The wet nurse was originally a mortal, without spiritual power, and it was difficult for her to protect herself. However, the wet nurse refused to abandon her as a burden like her biological parents did. Instead, she held her and resolutely jumped into the mortal well.
She was still a little baby, and her wet nurse was penniless. Even if they reached the mortal realm, they still had no place to live.
Jiang Liqian always remembered that year and that day.
The snow was falling heavily, and everything was covered in white. The tiles, the grass, and even the entire sky were all gray and white. The wind was biting, and the snowflakes were falling. There was not a single person in sight in the vast sky and earth.
The wet nurse held her tightly and walked in the snow, taking one deep step and one shallow step.
Her hands and feet were numb from the cold and she was unconscious. The only thing she could hear was the gentle call of her nanny.
Qian'er, Qian'er, my dear Qian'er, don't sleep...
She suddenly burst into tears.
She had no strength in her body and her crying voice was very soft. As soon as the tears flowed, they froze on her messy hair. But she still wanted to cry, to cry out all the grievances, all the sadness, and all the disappointment.
Her small hands grasped the nanny's clothes and she choked with sobs: "Go away, go away. My parents don't want me anymore. Just abandon me too. I'll give you all my clothes. You can live on your own..."
She didn't want to, she didn't want to. The only wet nurse who refused to abandon her also froze to death in the snow.
But no matter how she cried or begged, the wet nurse held her and refused to leave her.
The wind and snow that day were really cold. My eyebrows, nose, mouth, every part of my body was cold, but there was one place that was very warm.
It was so warm that she felt alive.
It was so warm that she refused to die.
Jiang Liqian stepped on the snow step by step, and suddenly, she finally recalled those dusty memories. Her life should have been cut short, but the person who loved her refused to give up and gave her a new life. Only then could she embark on the immortal path and pursue her unwillingness, her unattainable.
How could she have given up her life so easily?
How can those who love her bear this?
[Ding! The young master's inner demon backlash value has decreased by 10%, and the current backlash value is 39%.]
A determined light flashed in her misty eyes. Jiang Liqian braved the wind and snow, trying her best to hold Xu Youan in her arms, sharing the remaining warmth with him so that he would still have the strength to escape with her.
She won't die here.
Xu Youan doesn't know either.
They will definitely escape.
The wind was strong and the weather was cold in the snowfield. There was no day or night. Although there was ice and snow everywhere, I had never seen a single snowflake falling.
Jiang Liqian and Xu Youan had been forcing themselves to walk in the thick snow. If they were not cultivators, they would have died long ago. But even with their strong willpower, they had reached their limit after walking for several days and nights.
The two stiff legs were just moving forward mechanically, and the wind on the snowy field seemed to never stop.
Finally, he stumbled violently, and Xu Youan's vision went dark. He fell to the ground on the snow with Jiang Liqian on top of him.
As soon as the still warm body touched the snow, the snow immediately turned into cold water, soaking the already thin clothes.
The cold wind blew and it was so cold that my bones were shivering.
Xu Youan tried to get up several times, but his hands and feet had no strength. He gasped twice and closed his eyes resignedly.
His lips, which had been holding back from speaking, trembled slightly as he leaned over her and said, "Sister, please leave me behind.
"I can't walk with you any longer."
If she brings him along, it will only be a burden.
In fact, he had wanted his senior sister to leave alone long before he jumped into the ice coffin, but he knew her temper and was greedy for the warmth she was willing to give him, so he had persisted until now.
His senior sister must not know that he was actually very happy in this snowy field, in this life-threatening cold wind.
Because there are no right and wrongs from the outside world here, and there are not so many people who occupy the senior sister's mind. There are only him and her here, and in the eyes of the senior sister, she can only see him.
He was so reluctant and unwilling to let go, but he wanted his senior sister to live.
Even if he wasn't by her side.
Even if... maybe many years later, she would not remember that she had a junior brother like him, just like the countless reincarnations in the past, no matter how unforgettable it was, the first person she would forget would always be him.
"Don't talk nonsense, I will take you out!" Jiang Liqian grabbed his shoulders and frowned slightly, obviously dissatisfied with his discouraging words.
His eyes darkened, and he wanted to laugh and cry at the same time.
It has always been like this.
No matter how dangerous the situation is, Senior Sister would never choose to live alone.
The bright moon's light refuses to be tainted by a trace of dirt.
"But," he really hated her, really hated her for being like this, "Senior Sister, I can't walk anymore. You're just insisting on taking me with you. In the end, we'll both die here. Maybe no one will even find our bodies..."
"We won't die!" Jiang Liqian firmly rejected his words, struggled to climb out of his body, took two breaths, untied the belt around her waist in front of him, bent down, took a deep breath, lifted him up from the ground, turned around and carried him on her back, and tied them both tightly with the untied belt.
After completing this series of actions, she emphasized again: "Xu Youan, don't ever tell me to leave you again, ever."
She didn't die before, and they won't die now.
She found a sturdier branch on the side of the road to use as her crutch, supporting the weight of both of them and continued walking forward.
There was a fishy and sweet taste of blood rolling in his throat. Xu Youan felt the beating of his senior sister's pulse, and stars flickered in his eyes.
"Senior Sister, I did that to you, don't you hate me?"
