In the following days, the three of them lived a monotonous and fulfilling life.
After eating every morning, Ge Kailin and Xu Xinyu went out to forage and collect firewood, while Wu Yinwei made a fire at home to cook.
As their physical strength recovered, the place where Ge Kailin and Xu Xinyu foraged for food was getting farther and farther away from the courtyard.
Wild fruits, wild vegetable roots, grass seeds that had not fallen to the ground, anything that could satisfy their hunger were brought back.
They also ate a lot of meat, including hares, roe deer and the like that the two of them shot, but they didn't encounter any large animals.
Wu Yinwei's starved and thin body gradually became rounder, and her body functions were almost restored.
Ge Kailin and Xu Xinyu planned to straighten her legs first, but they tried several times but couldn't get it right.
"I see you are very efficient in helping the second grandmother.
Why are you hesitating now?"
"You said it was for help, but I have never done it alone.
Besides, this tool is too simple."
The two were having a heated discussion when a man's voice came from behind: "Whatever you want, maybe I have it."
Ge Kailin stiffened.
Xu Xinyu shouted happily: "Brother, Neva, how did you find this place?"
Xunie asked: "Sister, Sister Kailin, what are you two doing?"
Xu Xinyu pulled Xu Nie over and said, "I planned to treat Kailin's fifth cousin's leg, but I couldn't move her hands."
The two siblings knelt down and watched Wu Yinwei roll up her trouser legs.
Wu Yinwei had fallen asleep after drinking the medicine.
Ge Kailin slowly turned around and met Xu Xiang's complicated eyes.
"Brother Xiang," Ge Kailin said softly.
Xu Xiang didn't respond or move, he just stared at her.
A little fox jumped on Ge Kailin's shoulder.
"Xuelu, you're here too."
Ge Kailin pulled the little fox from her shoulders and hugged her.
"Let's talk about it later.
Let's take a look at her legs first."
Xu Xiang touched Ge Kailin's head and walked around her to look at Wu Yinwei.
After some consultation, he asked, "What have you prepared?"
Ge Kailin showed Xu Xiang the medicine, knives, daggers, cotton cloth, splints, etc. she had prepared.
Xu Xiang ordered: "Bring the things in."
Sun Jing came in, took off his baggage, opened it and placed it next to Wu Yinwei.
He said to Ge Kailin: "Sixth Miss, Miss Xu.
You two can go out first.
It is enough to have the general and the young master here."
He had no intention of going out.
Xu Xinyu didn't move: "Brother, the fifth cousin is a woman, I will help you."
Ge Kailin didn't go out either: "I can also take action."
Xuxiang took her hand and walked out without saying a word.
There were several people dressed as sergeants in the courtyard, checking the courtyard inside and out.
Xu Xiang touched Ge Kailin's head and said warmly: "If you are afraid of the cold, just go to the kitchen and wait.
You will be fine soon."
Ge Kailin nodded obediently: "I'll boil more hot water."
The appearance of Xuxiang and others.
She looked not much different from when she first came to the trench.
She was in such a miserable state that it would be better to boil more hot water.

"Yeah."
Xu Xiang nodded and sent her into the kitchen.
She was busy boiling water in the kitchen.
She actually wanted to go out and take a look, but she held it back.
Whatever you want to know, you will know sooner or later.
After finishing the leg bone correction, Xu Xinyu guarded Wu Yinwei, while Xu Xiang and Xu Nie came to the kitchen to rest.
Ge Kailin scooped hot water for the two of them and said: "This is a big maze.
It's obvious at a glance, but we can't get out.
Xin Yu and I searched countless times and couldn't find the exit."
Xu Xiang said: "I left a mark along the road, rest for a while and then leave."
Ge Kailin nodded, but in her heart she didn't have much hope for Xu Xiang's words.
It's not that she and Xu Xinyu didn't leave a mark when they looked for the exit, but they either couldn't find it or they were just wandering around in circles.
Sure enough, the group of people wandered around but could not find the way they came, and the mark disappeared.
Xu Xiang ordered: "Go back to the courtyard to rest first.
Save your energy and then search carefully."
He held Ge Kailin's hand but didn't move.
When everyone walked away, Xu Xiang wrapped Ge Kailin in his cloak and hugged Ge Kailin tightly with his hands, as if he was afraid that Ge Kailin would run away.
Ge Kailin did not panic.
Without turning around, he called softly: "Brother Xiang" "Hmm" I answered carefully.
"How do you know I'm here?"
"Following your trail."
"I'm afraid it won't be easy to find."
"I found it."
"I'm afraid it's easier to get in than to get out."
"It's okay, let's look for it slowly."
The two of them were chattering away, without the excitement they deserved for having just reunited after going through a lot of hardships.
In the distance, Xu Xinyu and Xu Nie looked at each other, Xu Xinyu's eyes were full of narrowing.
This layer of window paper was finally pierced.
Xu Xinyu thought about how to take revenge on Ge Kailin for teasing her.
Xunie breathed a sigh of relief.
Her brother and Sister Kailin were finally reunited.
I wonder if this was the right time as the old monk said.
Following the marks left by Doctor Gao, Xu Xiang found the place where the marks disappeared.
Doctor Gao and the little man both said that Ge Kailin and Xu Xinyu disappeared suddenly at the place where the mark disappeared, so the place where the two people were hiding should not be far away, but he couldn't find them even after searching nearby.
Xu Nie, who came with Lin Yan, also looked for her, and Xueluo plunged into the dense forest and disappeared.
Xuxiang ordered the search to be expanded, and Xunie asked Xuxiang: "Brother, do you know a place called dry land?"
"I seem to have seen it in a dream, but I don't remember it when I wake up."
Xu Xiang shook his head.
He has a strange emotion towards Xunie, and even when he has a cold face, he is rarely impatient with Xunie.
"This mountain is very similar to a dry land mountain.
One side of the mountain is a dry land river, and the other side is a big trench."
Xunie pointed to the river at the foot of the mountain, and then to the other side.
But there was no trench on that side.
Instead, it was foggy and nothing could be seen.
Xunie didn't care and just continued: "My father buried my brother and I alive.

It was my brother who found a way to escape and raised me.
The fish in the dry land river are very nutritious.
My brother can't see, but he can catch fish in the river.
Make fish soup for me to drink, pick out the fish bones and feed me the fish meat.”
Xu Xiang touched the top of his head: "You and I have the same surname, and your temper is not unpleasant, so we are destined."
"Brother."
Xunie immediately showed a big smile.
Xuxiang couldn't help but move on.
This child was only three or four years old when he was picked up by the old monk.
He probably doesn't remember what happened when he was a child.
He probably regarded his fantasy as reality.
When people feel lost, they will fantasize about what they don't have.
When he was a child, he saw the harmony of the Ge family and never imagined that he also had such a simple and warm home.
The search scope has been expanded again and again.
As time passed, Xuxiang's heart became heavier and heavier.
In the middle of the night, Xu Xiang, who was in a restless mood, was walking back and forth in the woods when he accidentally saw something unexpected in one direction.
Xueluo was jumping around there, and by some strange coincidence, he walked over there.
As we walked farther and farther, we entered a large trench at dawn.
In the cloak, Xu Xiang reached out and held Ge Kailin's little hand.
The tentacles feel cold and rough, and you can even feel bloody scabs.
Xu Xiang was startled, and slowly turned Ge Kailin to face him, held up the little man's face, and stared at it carefully.
The long, dry and rough face was covered with bloodshot eyes, and there were several cracks in the nostrils, exposing the red flesh inside.
The lips were chapped and peeled, and the blood was also scabbed.
Xuxiang's heart ached.
People who have been held in the palm of their hands since childhood have never suffered like this.
He pressed Ge Kailin's head to his chest, not knowing how to express his distress.
At night, Ge Kailin slept on the bed, and Xu Xiang sat on the edge of the bed, staring at Ge Kailin's face intently.
Wu Yinwei didn't wake up, and Xu Xinyu insisted on staying with Wu Yinwei.
She was making space for Ge Kailin and Xu Xiang to be alone.
"Brother Xiang" "Um" "It's very late, you should rest."
"fine."
"I'm right in front of you, and I can't run away.
You go and rest."
Zhuge Lin's answer was a long silence.
Xu Xiang put his big hand on Ge Kailin's head and said softly: "I will go to sleep when you fall asleep."
She gently massaged Ge Kailin's head with her hands.
Not long after, Ge Kailin's breathing stabilized.
Xu Xiang stared at Ge Kailin for a while.
Get up and get ready to leave the house.
Ge Kailin muttered: "Brother Xiang" "Um" "Do you really think I'm your sister?"
Xu Xiang's heart was shocked, and he lowered his head to look at Ge Kailin carefully.
Ge Kailin's breathing was long, and she was obviously asleep.
Xu Xiang came to the room that Xu Nie had packed and lay down.
Xu Nie was already fast asleep.
Although he was extremely tired, what Ge Kailin just said kept swirling in his mind, and Xu Xiang couldn't sleep no matter what.

The next few days.
Xu Xiang led the others to find the exit of the trench, while Ge Kailin and Xu Xinyu concentrated on taking care of Wu Yinwei.
I don’t know whether Xu Xiang did it deliberately or because correcting the leg bones really consumed a lot of energy.
Wu Yinwei slept most of the time.
Just like the efforts of Ge Kailin and Xu Xinyu, several people tried all kinds of methods but could not find an exit.
Xu Xiang took out the needle box he gave to Ge Kailin and sent a signal to the outside world in his own way, but received no response.
The days are passing by, and according to Sun Jing's calculation, today is the New Year.
Zhuge Lin and Xu Xinyu immediately commanded several followers to circle around and killed several chickens alone.
Sun Jing and Xu Nie went hunting with tools, and they were competing to see who could hunt more.
Sun Jing felt very unhappy when he was still looked down upon by a little brat at an old age.
He had to find an opportunity to suppress this brat.
Xu Xiang found pen and ink and red paper from nowhere.
The red paper was cut into long strips and spread on the table.
He held the brush in his hand and frowned in deep thought.
Ge Kailin was curious: "Brother Xiang, what are you doing?"
Xu Xiang put down his writing brush, touched Ge Kailin's hand to make sure that Zhuge Kailin was not frozen, and then replied: "Writing couplets, even though today is just a small year, I also want to post some couplets to be lively."
Ge Kailin's mood suddenly dropped, and she suddenly disappeared.
How anxious the family must have been.
"Kailin, don't cry.
No matter what method is used, Brother Xiang will take you out."
Xu Xiang gently wiped Ge Kailin's tears.
Ge Kailin simply lay on Xu Xiang's chest, letting her tears flow without wiping them or caring about them, crying until her shoulders twitched.
Xu Xiang sighed, hugged Ge Kailin tightly, and gently patted Ge Kailin's back with his big hand.
Xu Xinyu entered Wu Yinwei's house, and the entourages were doing their own things, as if their eyes and ears were closed.
By the time Ge Kailin was tired of crying, the clothes on Xuxiang's chest had become wet.
Xu Xiang pulled Ge Kailin into the kitchen, wiped Ge Kailin's face with a hot towel, and carefully applied the self-prepared skin care ointment on Ge Kailin's face, then wrapped Ge Kailin in his cloak and half hugged Ge Kailin and left. courtyard.
Arriving at a sheltered place, Xu Xiang looked into the distance without speaking.
He wanted Ge Kailin to calm down.
He placed his chin on top of Ge Kailin's head and rubbed it gently.
"Haha."
Zhuge Lin burst into laughter.
Rubbing his chin, Xu Xiang paused and asked, "What funny thing comes to mind?"
"Haha, I don't know how Xin Yu will tease me."
Ge Kailin said.
Xu Xiang did not answer Ge Kailin's words.
After a while, he asked: "Do you still remember the question you asked that day?"
"What are you talking about?"
Ge Kailin was confused.
She asked Xu Xiang a lot of questions, but Xu Xiang's words were haphazard.
Who knew which sentence he was talking about.
"You ask me, do I really think of you as my sister?"
Xu Xiang answered hesitantly.
Pushing Ge Kailin away a little, he lowered his head and stared carefully at the little man who looked up at him.
Ge Kailin didn't remember asking Xu Xiang this question, but she had already thought about it many times, so she asked: "Then do you really think that I am your sister?"
Xuxiang replied: "So it is."

"What about now?"
"Now it should be a relationship between a man and a woman."
"Kevin also asked me what kind of feelings I had for you.
At that time, I still thought it was a brother-sister relationship.
When you disappeared this time, I rushed back without thinking and searched for you day and night.
Only then did I realize that I was deeply interested in you.
Your relationship is no longer the brother-sister relationship I thought it was.
"These days, I have repeatedly thought about the scenes with you.
When you were still babbling, I began to notice you.
There was always a sense of irony in your eyes towards me.
I was young and energetic at the time, and always wanted to take revenge on you. , but every time I get a chance, I can’t bear to do it.”
Ge Kailin remembers that when she was a child, she paid little attention to Xu Xiang, always thinking that he was just a child pretending to be cool.
Thinking about it carefully at this time, Xuxiang is ten years older than her.
At ten years old, he has begun to enter the psychological rebellious period.
This is not the time when others ignore him, the more he wants to attract others' attention.
Wow, ten years older than him.
In this world, Xu Xiang is already a so-called old man.
Ge Kailin's eyes turned into crescent moons when she smiled.
"When I got older, I found that you and my eighth sister are somewhat similar.
You are smart, kind, perseverant, and naughty.
When I realized this, I felt a little awkward inside.
Eight sisters are unique in my heart.
I don't want anyone to be like my eighth sister. , but I don’t know what’s going on, but I can’t help but want to get close to you.”
"Kailin, are you listening?"
Seeing that Ge Kailin was distracted, Xu Xiang was helpless.
He could make up his mind to say so many words, which was really contrary to his temperament.
He didn't know how much Ge Kailin would listen to.
Ge Kailin nodded, but she laughed at her own thoughts in her heart, and the smile on her face became even bigger.
Xu Xiang couldn't hold it back and pecked her big eyes with his lips.
She was so scared that Ge Kailin lowered her head and shrank back.
Xu Xiang hugged her back and hugged her even tighter.
Xuxiang continued: "As I get older, I have become aware of things between men and women, but I don't know why.
Every time a young woman wants to get close to me, I feel disgusted.
Only you are the only one I want to do."
Close."
"With your cold face, would anyone dare to get close to you?"
After the words came out of her mouth, Ge Kailin realized something was wrong and quickly covered her mouth, but there was no hint of anything wrong in her eyes, instead she was smiling
