The Blue Adventures

Let's Go Home

"I say, why did you also bring his bag along?!" Pang Zi yelled at Yu Yao, but he could only make a helpless face. When Pang Zi helps him up, he quickly grabbed his own bag, if Yu Yao didn't bring his bag then the following event wouldn't follow, now they don't even know when the bomb will explode and Xiao Ge's plan is to find a strong cave to hide first, since it is impossible to find a way out now.

Before they can run far away, Wu Xie suddenly taps on Xiao Ge's shoulder asking him to slow down, Xiao Ge thinks that he is running too fast and it made him uncomfortable, so he slows down and tries to ask him what is wrong, but Wu Xie suddenly turn around and look at Yu Qin
"Don't kill him"

Pang Zi is flabbergasted "Don't you understand what the situation is now?!" Yu Qin and Fu Yin watch on the side, not saying or doing anything

Wu Xie turn around and looks at Jin Ye "Eventhough I didn't know you for long, I know that you are not the kind of person to do rash things, are you really that afraid of death?"

Jin Ye smiles and hold tightly to his wound "You are still as innocent as ever, you hurry up and go, the bomb will be activated in 10 minutes, I am sorry to have to drag you like this" Jin Ye and his men have been planting bomb everywhere they walk, Jin Ye intention is wanting to burry all the things with him, so that he won't die so miserably and being known as someone who is desperate to escape death, at least can help him save some face.

Yu Qin can't help but snort "You think my place is your home? All that thing you buried have been known by me and thrown away" Yu Qin huffed, hearing this, Jin Ye couldn't help but let out a small smile of defeat, even his last resort was gone.

Wu Xie, "Life, death, and sickness is a heaven law everyone must go through, why can't you let go of it? Just think about that stupid son of yours, I think he still needs your company for a few more years"

Jin Ye sighs, "I must be like a silly old man in your eyes, when I find a chance that can extend my life isn't it worth it to give it a try? That is what I am thinking about, but I have let it become my obsession. I still lose to you, I am not as strong as you"

"Stop saying nonsense, your child is still waiting for you" Wu Xie said, avoiding his gaze, Yu Qin suddenly laughed,
"Ge Ge, you are really not an ordinary person", he gave off a weird sad smile and disappeared.

***

Pang Zi is carrying Jin Ye who had already fainted on his back and walked towards the exit led by Yu Yao

Pang Zi, "It feels like a dream, I still can't believe that it just ended like this"
"So, what kind of things are you expecting?" Wu Xie asked, he didn't say anything, but just one looked at his face, anybody could know that he is struggling to stay awake now
"Don't know, maybe something like, we all crying, hugging and maybe comforting each other.. for your ass" Pang Zi replied sarcastically, still haven't quite satisfied with Wu Xie who hides things from him. Wu Xie just let out an awkward laugh and then the atmosphere became quiet again

"I say, Wu Xie, you are really a genius, you know that the time you spend with your loved one is precious, but you are also the one who put yourself in danger without considering our feelings"

Wu Xie can feel that Pang Zi is sulking, and his words are like a sword that is piercing his conscience, he lets out an awkward laugh
"How could it be the same? He is doing a stupid thing, while I am doing an important thing"

Before Pang Zi could refute him, Wu Xie continued again
"And didn't I already say that he won't die even if the place is indeed being bombed, it means that he still has another plan on his hands, he didn't really intend to die"

"He didn't but he almost buried us all alive" Pang Zi scoffed. Yu Yao suddenly stopped and turned around, telling us to cover all our face with a piece of clothing and then he put his mucus around it as if sealing it, we walked again and after a while, Yu Yao told us to took it off, we turn around and saw a field of mushrooms laying around all the place.
'I think this is the things that are protecting this place, whoever inhales this would become like the people who tried to barge in and die without leaving bodies behind'

After passing the dangerous section, they could already feel some cool wind coming from in front of them, Yu Yao stopped again, it seemed he would only escort them this far, Wu Xie got down from Xiao Ge's back and approached it, patting its head
"Thank you" he smiles at him, Yu Yao smiles and squeaks happily, Wu Xie turns around and sees a white shadow
"Fu Yin?" he let out its head to look "Thank you too" it became flustered and hid away, but then it extended its tentacle and waved goodbye shyly. Wu Xie smiled and looked far away but it seemed that Yu Qin won't see them off, so they continued their journey

***

"Aren't you going to say goodbye to them?" the voice said,
Yu Qin just stayed silent and asked "Why did you interfere?" he is laying on the big tree, feeling tired mentally and he is upset about something
"Didn't you also want him to be safe?" the voice asked

Yu Qin becomes silent and slowly speaks
"He.. is the second person that saved me when I am in danger, it has been a long time since I felt this feeling, so I was testing him a bit"

"Are you sure it is just like that? From my point of view, it seems that you are not happy that he has got a lot of friends beside him and wanted him to make you his only reliable friends"

"I am not!! I.. just wanted to see if they really care about him!!" Yu Qin flustered

The voice chuckled, "If you wanted to see him, I will give you permission to do so"

"I said I am not!" he huffed and walked away

***

"Finally!" Pang Zi stretches himself out after they successfully get out and put Jin Ye on the side, Wu Xie sits down on the warm grass and looks afar, it turns out that the closest entrance is from the cave behind the village, but they have gone a long roundway instead.

Wu Xie lay on the ground and looked at the sky, Pang Zi and Xiao Ge also followed along, Wu Xie looked left and right and smiled, holding their hand tightly
"Let's go home"
