Face-Slapping the genius from another world (2.2)
Editors: Aaghna
However, it was as if the people from the Hedong clan had made up their minds to fight in this forest, but they were not willing to fight there. After all, they would suffer great losses since they were unfamiliar with the terrain, so they continued to flee in another direction.
Because their formation was vertical, and the cliff in front of them was also vertical, ten minutes later, the warriors from the Hexi tribe could not see the road ahead clearly.
They didn’t know the lush vines and branches and the moss and weeds on them, which had been connected to the other side, had long submerged the road.
In a split of a second, only two hundred people were left from the initial eight hundred.
At that time, the Hexi clan’s warriors turned around and realized that the people from the Hedong clan were still chasing in this direction. They had no choice but to fight.
However, seeing that they had already lost most of their clan members, how could they still create any fighting formations. They could only roar and fight the people from the Hedong clan to the death.
The team without any coordination was quickly defeated by the team led by Zhou Xu and Yan He.
After they returned, Han Wen was dumbfounded. He hadn’t seen a single enemy on his side at all. That was something Zhou Xu also didn’t expect. He thought there would inevitably be a group of people who would get in here. However, the people from the Hexi clan directly separated into two groups, one group was wiped out by mosquitoes and the other by the cliff.
A deadly struggle between two clans had ended just like that, as if it was a joke.
The follow-up was very troublesome because most of the warriors from the Hexi clan did not die.
Those bitten by mosquitoes would be fine as long as they were rescued, and those who fell off the cliff did not have any big problems as the vegetation there was too vigorous. Even if they fell down, they would not fall to their death or break their legs.
Instead, it was the warriors, who didn’t fall off the cliff, who weren’t bitten by mosquitoes, and actually went to battle that suffered a bit more casualties.
Their clan needed to drag all these people back as hostages and negotiate with the Hexi clan. In the end, their life or death depended on their clan’s response.
In any case, Zhou Xu was too lazy to care about the follow-ups. The transmigrated protagonist, Ruan Shijin would definitely be busy making arrangements. His negotiations this time were actually quite successful, so Zhou Xu might as well have taken it as he used him.
On that evening, Zhou Xu once again went to look for Yan He. This time, as soon as he entered, he saw an even more breathtaking scene. A white-faced handsome boy was sitting in front of Yan He, his head was lowered, and it looked as if he was gulping.
Because there was a bucket in front of Yan He, all his important parts had been obstructed. When Yan He lifted his head, he saw his face full of sweat.
Zhou Xu stood at the entrance, too shocked to think. His heart seemed to have been crushed by something. It was very painful, more painful than being stabbed by a knife, than being pricked by a needle, it was even more painful than being burned. This lover who chased after him for so many worlds, just like that&#k2026;
“All good, in the future don’t be so hot-blooded. Fortunately, the wound was not deep.” The white-faced boy stood up.
“Thank you, Zhou Yang.”
“It’s nothing.”
Zhou Xu took a step to the side and found that behind the bucket, Yan He’s waist was wrapped in a bandage and his trousers were worn properly.
Wait, Zhou Yang?
Zhou Xu discovered he needed to properly review the original owner’s memory because it was as if he didn’t know anyone in this world.
Zhou Yang was not Zhou Xu’s brother, but his cousin. Since his birth, his body had been weak. The great master of the clan looked at his fate. He finally told him not to live in the clan, and to not eat meat. He could only find some edible wild herbs to eat.
That was why Zhou Yang, from a young age, followed his mother to live in the forest. However, a doctor from the clan took a liking to Zhou Yang. Sometimes, when he had nothing to do, he would teach him medicine. Now, Zhou Yang was an amazing doctor. But if one wanted him to treat them, it all depended on fate. Because there were times when Zhou Yang’s body wasn’t well and couldn’t go to the village for several days.
Furthermore, even if Zhou Yang came to the village, he would not wander around. He basically stayed at the clinic the entire day.
Most of the villagers didn’t know Zhou Yang in reality. The healthy ones, who didn’t need to visit a doctor, might have only heard of Zhou Yang. Even if Zhou Yang stood before them, they would not know who he was.
Zhou Yang turned his head and smiled when he saw Zhou Xu, “Xiao Xu, how come you’re here?”
“Big brother, I still need to ask you, why did you come to the village so late at night?”
“I had spare time and heard that today we fought with the Hexi clan, so I wanted to help. Xiao Xu, are you ok? You’re not hurt, are you?”
Shaking his head, Zhou Xu said, “I’m fine, I’m not hurt at all.”
“That’s good.” After saying that, Zhou Yang turned back to Yan He and said, “Remember to rest well, don’t try to be brave.”
Yan He nodded. Zhou Yang patted Zhou Xu’s shoulder. “I’m going back. Tomorrow, I’ll go to the clinic again. If you have time to spare, then come look for me.”
“Alright.”
When Zhou Yang left, Yan He had already worn his clothes properly. Zhou Xu’s heart had felt very warm. The last few worlds he experienced often had the character, Zhou Yang. He was always as kind as jade, never angry, nor showed any extreme emotions. He always doted on Zhou Xu, like how his real brother did.
Yes, Zhou Xu’s brother would also look at him in this doting manner, looking at him with concern. Zhou Yang would always walk next to his parents’ side, while he walked between them. Sometimes, his parents would hold his hand to make him fly, and Zhou Yang would smile at all that.
Wait!
In the real world, Zhou Xu also had a big brother. In the amusement park, the figure of the slightly older figure at his side was not a stranger, but it should be his brother.
Right, it was Zhou Yang!
Remembering, Zhou Xu thought of what happened in the amusement park.
After he was lost, what was the name of the big brother who always accompanied him and held his hand, never releasing it?
His head hurt as if it was being gnawed by millions of ants.
Zhou Xu crouched down as he covered his head. His whole body was shivering as if he was locked in an extremely ice cellar where the temperature was tens of degrees below zero. Zhou Xu’s lips also began to turn purple, and his teeth chattered. Even while crouching, his legs couldn’t hold his body weight.
Zhou Xu fell, however, his consciousness was very limpid. He even knew that he was losing consciousness.
Zhou Yang, who only walked a short distance away, was pulled back by Yan He. He felt Zhou Xu’s pulse. Zhou Yang also didn’t understand because Zhou Xu’s pulse was very normal.
Zhou Yang spoke uncertainly, “There should be no problem, his pulse is normal. It’s probably fatigue, let him rest for a while.”
“Are you sure there’s no problem?” Yan He asked.
“Ehm, otherwise why don’t I call my teacher over to look at him.”
“Alright, thank you.”
After Zhou Yang left, Yan He sat at the bedside and looked at the deeply asleep Zhou Xu. He suddenly remembered Zhou Xu confessing to him.
“Is it true? Do you really like me?” Yan He’s voice was really quiet as if he was talking to himself.
He took Zhou Xu’s hands and held them in his palms. Yan He felt that Zhou Xu’s hands were very cold.
Holding the hands tightly, Yan He whispered, “Why are your hands so cold? Strange, are you really ok? Zhou Xu, wake up. If you wake up, then I…”
Yan He suddenly froze. What he wanted to say was, “I promise to be with you.” However, how could he like Zhou Xu? They were clearly always confronting each other.
Zhou Yang’s teacher came. He also examined once and came to the conclusion, “There’s no big problem. It’s possible that he hadn’t had a good meal recently and his body became weak. Warm him up and he should wake up soon.”
“Alright, thank you.”
After Zhou Yang and his teacher left, Yan He once again held Zhou Xu’s hands. He looked at Zhou Xu’s beautiful appearance and suddenly whispered, “Zhou Xu, wake up. When you wake up, I’ll tell you the secret about my body.”
Zhou Xu didn’t wake up, but all the words Yan He said during that time were heard by him. He started to suspect the reason why his memories were like this was because his brain might have been tampered by someone when he transmigrated. That was why when he recalled something, his head would hurt.
However, fortunately, even though he fainted, he recalled the person who always held his hands, who always gave him candies. It was the big brother next door.
The feeling of holding hands with him was the same as the current one, strong and warm as if he wanted to put him in his heart to love.
Hearing Yan He, who was holding his hands, say that he would tell him the secret of his body after Zhou Xu woke up, he really wanted to smile. He didn’t care about secrets, all he cared about was if the man, who was holding his hands, would once again love him and walk beside him until the end of this life.
The sensation of his body gradually became clear, and Zhou Xu’s consciousness also followed and he gradually returned to his body.
Zhou Xu’s fan-like thick eyelashes slightly trembled. He finally opened his eyes and looked at Yan He, in front of him. Zhou Xu said, “Meow~”
Yan He, “…”
Yan He’s face was still as expressionless as always, but Zhou Xu knew he had already gone from pleasant surprise to fright.
Zhou Xu smiled slightly and said, “I was playing with you.”
Yan He, who was frightened, released Zhou Xu’s hands and said angrily, “Zhou Xu, get out of here!”
