Chapter 137 Reincarnation (27)

He started to occasionally dream about a white fox at the age of three.

Now he is seven years old, and he has dreamed of the white fox no less than ten times.

Ning Qingyan asked his servants to look for the white fox everywhere, but none of the ones they found were the one in his dream. He knew it was not the one just by looking at it.

Ning Qingyan lowered his eyes and looked at the well-behaved fox in his arms, then suddenly reached out and touched his soft fur.

"Since you are here, stay with me."

Chen Ye wanted to accompany Ning Qingyan, but the system did not allow it.

In another hour, he would have to leave.

After Ning Qingyan sat on the ground for a while, he stood up and walked to the table.

There were many exquisite pastries on the table.

Ning Qingyan put Chen Ye down from his arms and said, "Are you hungry? Eat."

For some reason, Ning Qingyan felt that Chen would also like to eat these pastries.

Chen Ye picked up a piece of peach blossom cake with his paws. He lowered his head and was about to eat it, but then he remembered that the maid said Ning Qingyan had not eaten anything, so he handed the peach blossom cake to Ning Qingyan's mouth.

Ning Qingyan was not surprised that Chen Ye would make such a humane action. He took the peach blossom cake and took a bite.

Seeing Ning Qingyan eating, Chen was quite happy and started eating too.

After finishing the cakes on the table, Chen looked at Ning Qingyan a little embarrassedly. Ning Qingyan's expression did not change much.

"Is that enough? If you want more, I'll ask the servants to bring it to you."

Chen also shook his head.

The time was about to run out, and Chen Ye pointed to the window.

Ning Qingyan's eyes suddenly turned gloomy, "Are you leaving?"

Chen also nodded.

Ning Qingyan stretched out his hand and grabbed Chen Ye in his arms. Chen Ye was hurt by his grabbing and he suspected that all the hair on his body had been pulled off.

"No, you can't leave."

He hugged Chen Ye tightly, his voice was very low, with the unique crispness of a child's voice, but his tone was abnormally paranoid, "I dreamed of you, and you came to me just when my father left. You should be mine."

Ning Qingyan stood up and walked to the door and opened it. The guard standing by immediately lowered his head and asked, "Prince, what do you want?"

In front of outsiders, although Ning Qingyan is young, his every move is full of royal style.

"Go get the gold wire cage from the storeroom."

After receiving the order, the guard turned around and left.

Chen also shuddered. What golden cage? It wouldn't be used to lock him up, right?

The golden cage was quickly brought over by the guards. It was not the birdcage that Chen Ye had thought of, but a square golden cage the size of a table made of pure gold.

Because it was so heavy, it took two guards to carry it.

Ning Qingyan stroked Chen Ye's back and said, "I had this made last year. I kept dreaming about you, so I thought if I could see you, I would raise you."

He did not lock Chen Ye in, but carried Chen Ye to the bed.

"Don't worry, I won't lock you up as long as you're within my sight, but to prevent you from escaping, you'll have to stay in the cage for the time being while I'm away."

Chen also felt uneasy. He originally thought that Ning Qingyan would be a gentle and modest gentleman like Li Wenshui, but now it seems that Ning Qingyan, who is only seven years old, has shown extraordinary maturity and possessiveness.

As expected, people who grew up in different environments will have different personalities even if they have the same soul.

At night, Ning Qingyan fell asleep holding Chen Ye in his arms. When Ning Qingyan went to school during the day, he locked Chen Ye in a cage.

Chen spent more than twenty days like this.

During the day, the system said to Chen Ye: [If you don't leave, I will really punish you. ]

Chen Ye lied with his eyes open, "I'm locked up now, so I can't leave?"

[You are a hundred-year-old fox demon. You can open the cage with just a flick of your finger! You have been pretending to be stupid for so long, just to spend more time with him? I have turned a blind eye for more than 20 days. Today you must leave!]

It was the first time that Chen heard the system speak with such rich emotions. He sighed and knew that he really couldn't stay any longer.

He used his spiritual power to unlock the golden lock and then escaped from the cage.

Before leaving, Chen Ye went to the school and took a look at Ning Qingyan from afar.

See you next time, Ning Qingyan.

...

In the northwest desert, the sun above is scorching the earth mercilessly. The ground is dry and cracked, with no grass growing. Except for animals, it is difficult for people to survive here.

The desert is the border between Shengyang and the barbarians. It is vast and sparsely populated, with only military personnel stationed here all year round. Shengyang soldiers and barbarian cavalry stare at each other across a man-made ravine, never letting the enemy cross the line.

War is a constant presence in this land. With the orders given by the generals of both sides, the soldiers began to fight desperately.

Whether it was to protect their loved ones or to achieve great things, no one retreated.

The barbarian soldiers were more than twice as many as Shengyang's soldiers. After a fierce battle, Shengyang was defeated step by step and the city was almost lost.

After the war, the left-wing general Zhao Wu led hundreds of people to search for Ning Qingyan.

"General, General..."

"General Ning..."

Ning Qingyan had been with them at the border for more than two years. At first, the soldiers at the border thought he was just a playboy who came for fun, but after getting to know him for a long time, they found that Ning Qingyan was the one who charged the most fiercely in every battle and had the most and most effective strategies. The soldiers were gradually convinced by Ning Qingyan.

Qian Shi clasped his fists towards Zhao Wu and said, "General Zhao, we have been searching for three days and three nights, but still have no idea where the prince is."

Zhao Wu's eyes were red, "Your Highness is a lucky man, nothing will happen to him, keep looking."

If Ning Qingyan had not taken the enemy general's head at the critical moment in this battle, Shengyang army would have suffered a more miserable defeat.

But after the battle, Ning Qingyan disappeared.

In a remote town in the desert far away from the army, Chen Ye spent a lot of effort to find a family with an empty house.

The old woman with a cane said, "This room was where my son lived. He didn't come back because of the war a few years ago, so it was left unused. You can live here with peace of mind."

Chen Ye supported the seriously injured and unconscious Ning Qingyan. He took out a coin from his pocket and handed it to the old woman, "Please keep it as rent."

The old woman waved her hands repeatedly, "No need, the person next to you is a military officer, right? How can I take your money?"

Chen Ye forcefully stuffed the money into the old woman's pocket and said, "Soldiers also need money. Please provide us with some food every day."

Holding the money in her hand, the old woman immediately said, "I'll do it right away."

After the old man left, Chen Ye helped Ning Qingyan into the house.

Half a month ago, he left Qingyun Mountain and wanted to meet Ning Qingyan. When he arrived in Kyoto, he heard that Ning Qingyan had been in the military camp for two years and had risen from an ordinary soldier to the current General of Cavalry.

Chen Ye rushed to the border without stopping, but unexpectedly he encountered war.

When he found Ning Qingyan on the battlefield, Ning Qingyan had been stabbed several times and was almost dead.

After using his spiritual power to keep Ning Qingyan alive, Chen Ye planned to find a quiet place for Ning Qingyan to heal his wounds.

Ning Qingyan's injuries were too severe and the military doctors in the barracks would definitely not be able to cure him. Chen could only use his own spiritual power to slowly heal him.

Looking at Ning Qingyan lying flat on the bed, Chen couldn't help but reach out and touch his face. This face was now exactly the same as Li Wenshui's.

It’s just that because he had stayed in the frontier for two years, Ning Qingyan’s skin became darker and the expression between his brows became colder.

After changing Ning Qingyan's tattered military uniform, Chen also changed him into the clothes that the old woman had brought for her son. The clothes were a little small, but he had to make do with them for now.

Ning Qingyan's abdominal wound was very large and the bleeding had stopped.

Chen Ye frowned. He gave half of his spiritual power to Ning Qingyan, but Ning Qingyan showed no signs of waking up. He was too badly injured. If Chen Ye had not arrived in time, he would have died from excessive blood loss.

The situation this time is special. The system gives Chen Ye five days to treat Ning Qingyan. He must hurry up.

On the third night, Chen Ye used a handkerchief to wipe Ning Qingyan's body.

Ning Qingyan had many scars on his body, and Chen also wanted to use his spiritual power to smooth out the scars, but in the end he suppressed the impulse.

The wet handkerchief wiped across Ning Qingyan's forehead, his Adam's apple and his strong chest.

Suddenly, Chen Ye felt a pain in his wrist, and he raised his eyes and met Ning Qingyan's gaze.

Ning Qingyan said in a low voice: "Who are you?"

Chen Ye tried to break free from Ning Qingyan's hand, but failed. Ning Qingyan stood up and pressed Chen Ye under him, putting his hand on Chen Ye's neck and asking in a dangerous tone, "Where is this place?"

Feeling the pulse beating under his hand, Ning Qingyan raised his eyebrows slightly.

Chen Ye stared at Ning Qingyan's eyes carefully and found that although his eyes seemed to be staring at him, they were actually not focused.

Chen did not struggle and explained directly: "This is a farm in the northwest. I picked you up on the battlefield and brought you here."

Ning Qingyan frowned slightly. It sounded like the person in front of him was his savior, but Ning Qingyan never believed in kindness without reason, not to mention that he found that he now... couldn't see anything.

Chen Ye said gently: "Let me go first. You are injured and cannot make any large movements."

The wound on Ning Qingyan's waist split open again, and the blood that seeped out stained Chen Ye's white clothes.

Chen Ye raised his hand and held Ning Qingyan's hand on his neck, "I really have no ill intentions. If I wanted to kill you, I could have done it while you were unconscious."

After thinking for a moment, Ning Qingyan let go of Chen Ye.

Chen Ye raised his hand and waved it in front of Ning Qingyan a few times. Ning Qingyan said coldly: "Don't try, I really can't see now."

After saying this, he pursed his lips slightly, as if he was not satisfied with the result. Being blind is not a good thing.

Chen Ye said: "It doesn't matter, maybe you hurt your eyes on the battlefield, I can heal you."

"Heal me?"

Ning Qingyan recalled the injuries he suffered on the battlefield. He thought he was doomed to die. His abdomen was stabbed, his chest was stabbed by a sword, and there was a three-inch knife wound on his back.

If an ordinary person had these injuries, he would probably have died on the spot.

Ning Qingyan reached out and pressed his abdomen. Although there was blood, he could feel that the injury was not that serious. The person opposite him said that he had only been lying in bed for three days.

Ning Qingyan was suspicious. How could his injury heal so quickly?

"You are a doctor? You treated my injuries?"

Chen was also warned by the system not to reveal his identity. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I have been learning medicine from my master in the mountains since I was young, and I know a little bit."

No matter what, Chen Ye still saved him. Ning Qingyan said, "Thank you."

Chen Ye helped him lie down, but when he touched Ning Qingyan, Ning Qingyan dodged him.

"Sorry, I don't like people touching me."

Chen Ye didn't care, "You lie down first, I'll go ask my mother-in-law for something to eat."

After bringing back a large bowl of porridge, Chen Ye watched Ning Qingyan finish the porridge. Although Ning Qingyan did not trust Chen Ye, he knew that Chen Ye was right. If he wanted to kill him, he would have died long ago.

Late at night, Chen Ye and Ning Qingyan slept in the same bed. Chen Ye was sleeping inside, and Ning Qingyan was sleeping outside, almost sticking to the edge of the bed. Chen Ye felt that he was going to fall off at the next moment.

"You don't have to sleep so outside. The bed is quite wide."

Ning Qingyan didn't say anything. Instead, he asked Chen Ye a question, "What's your name?"

Chen Ye was silent. The foxes in this world had no names.

Ning Qingyan asked again: "Can't tell?"

"Chen Ye."

"Most people on the border have the surname Hu or Zhang. Your surname is rare here."

Chen Ye said: "I am not from the frontier, I am from the Central Plains."

Ning Qingyan continued to inquire about the news calmly, "I am also from the Central Plains, where are you from?"

"My hometown is not famous. You probably wouldn't know it if I told you."

Ning Qingyan: "Really? I have traveled to many places, maybe I know."

Seeing that he insisted, Chen Ye said, "My hometown is in Qingyun County."

Ning Qingyan had never heard of Qingyun County, but he still remembered the address.

It was late at night and Ning Qingyan gradually fell asleep.

Chen also stood up and looked at Ning Qingyan, and input spiritual power into Ning Qingyan's body.

The next morning, Ning Qingyan woke up and felt that his injuries had healed a lot. Ning Qingyan's heart sank. Although he drank the medicine given to him by Chen Ye yesterday, he didn't believe that there was any medicine that could heal his injuries immediately.

And what surprised him the most was that even his eyes could see blurry light and shadows.

Swords and knives are merciless on the battlefield, and occasionally there will be soldiers who become blind due to hitting their heads, but they will be blind for life. There is no such thing as Ning Qingyan who felt better the next day.

Ning Qingyan lowered his eyes and looked at Chen Ye who was still sleeping, his gaze heavy. Who are you?

Although he couldn't see Chen Ye's face clearly, Ning Qingyan always felt that he looked familiar, as if they had met before.

The spring weather was nice, and Chen filled the bathtub with water, ready to give Ning Qingyan a bath.

Ning Qingyan had injuries on his body before and couldn't get wet, so Chen Ye just avoided the wounds and wiped his body. But now Ning Qingyan's injuries have healed a lot and he can take a shower.

Chen Ye stretched out his hand to test the water temperature. After he felt that the temperature was suitable, he walked to the bedside and said to Ning Qingyan who was sitting on the bed: "I'll help you take a bath."

Ning Qingyan refused, "No need, I can do it myself."

Chen Ye didn't know that Ning Qingyan's eyes had recovered a little, "What if you fall?"

Ning Qingyan said: "I have learned martial arts, and I can sense where there are obstacles."

Chen Ye said, "Then I'll wait at the door. Call me if you need anything."

After seeing Ning Qingyan nod, Chen also walked out.

Not long after, the sound of water was heard in the room. A moment later, Chen also heard a "bang". Worried that something might have happened, he immediately stood up from the bench and pushed open the door.

Ning Qingyan sat in the bathtub without clothes, revealing his lean chest and abdominal muscles. Next to him, a white soapberry fell to the ground.

Chen Ye walked over, picked up the soapberry and handed it to Ning Qingyan.

"Let me help you. I'll have to apply medicine and bandage you later anyway."

Ning Qingyan hesitated for a moment, "I've already washed it, wait until I put on my trousers before you come in."

Chen Ye walked out. After a moment, Ning Qingyan coughed lightly and said, "Okay."

After entering the room, Chen Ye squatted in front of Ning Qingyan and applied the medicine he made to Ning Qingyan's wound.

Herbs have little effect on wound healing. The reason why Ning Qingyan's injury healed so quickly was mainly due to Chen Ye's spiritual power.

Thanks to the pharmacology knowledge he had learned from Li Wenshui, Chen Ye was now able to make some herbs to fool Ning Qingyan.

After applying the medicine, Chen Ye wrapped the gauze around Ning Qingyan's waist. The distance between them was less than an inch. For a moment, Ning Qingyan even felt that Chen Ye was pressed against his chest.
