  There was no specific route, only a general direction, so when I set out, I carried a small knife with me. After walking a distance, I would carve some eye-catching marks on trees or stones, so that on the return journey, I could follow the marks and make the journey smoother.

  Xiao Bai, Tan Yao and Xia Yan were heading upstream, so the road was winding upwards.

  The road was bumpy and there were dense forests and overgrown weeds everywhere. We had applied some insect repellent on our bodies in advance. This season was considered early winter, but the temperature in the woods was already close to several degrees.

  We were moving quickly so we didn't feel too cold.

  Xiao Bai walked in the middle, Tan Yao was in front, and Xia Yan followed behind.

  The three of them held flashlights in their hands and moved quickly through the jungle.

  The destination was clear, and they didn't talk much to each other while walking. They all moved forward quickly, and only slowed down occasionally when passing some steep slopes.

  Tan Yao always took good care of Xiao Bai. After all, their relationship was clear. Although they were not openly in a relationship, they were just one step away from breaking the window paper. Xia Yan watched the two people in front of him showing off their love from time to time, and he just thought it was ridiculous.

  After walking for almost half an hour, I could vaguely hear the sound of flowing river.

  This mountain is more than 4,000 meters above sea level. Unlike flat land, the air is relatively thin. The breathing of several people has become noticeably heavier than before.

  When they arrived at a relatively open area, Tan Yao, who was walking in front, stopped.

  "Take a break before continuing." Tan Yao turned around and turned off the flashlight in his hand.

  A few stars appeared in the night sky, and a vague scene was visible in the forest.

  It was quiet all around.

  Xiao Bai was holding a bottle of water in his hand. He also turned off the flashlight and put it beside him. He also put on a bottle of water on his body. After unscrewing the lid, he gave it to Tan Yao to drink first, then he took it and took a sip with his head tilted back.

  Xia Yan stood aside with the flashlight on, projecting a beam of light towards the surrounding dense forest.

  Xiao Bai sat on the stone, looked up at Xia Yan for a while, then stood up and walked over.

  "Would you like a drink?"

  Turning his head, Xiao Bai's face was shrouded in gray shadows under the moonlight, but his eyes seemed brighter than the stars in the night sky.

  "Thank you, I'm not thirsty yet." Xia Yan refused indifferently.

  Xiao Bai took back the bottle of water and returned to Tan Yao.

  Tan Yao looked at Xiaobai's profile and seemed to sense a little bit of depression in Xiaobai's mood. He pressed Xiaobai's shoulders, and when Xiaobai turned around, he leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.

  "Your husband is here, don't be too nice to other people, I might get jealous." The voice was deliberately lowered so that only the two of them could hear it, and there was a hint of teasing in the tone.

  Xiao Bai tried to defend himself: "No, I just..."

  At this time, Tan Yao covered his mouth and prevented him from speaking.
