Chapter 36: Chapter 36 - Precious~~
Right after he lost consciousness, Qu Wren felt his body lose all the heat. It was cold as the northern waters, freezing his veins and meridians. He shivered and moved towards the nearby heat source.
Warmth that he craved was very close.
He hugged that tightly and sleepy off again.
The next morning, blinding light woke him up. Yawning, he opened his eyes wide. 'where.....'
He was in an unfamiliar cave.
Hurriedly he looked around to see the smoking remains of a campfire and his clothes hung in the corner of the cave. Someone had taken care of him.
"but who..." he glanced nearby to see the little birdie deep asleep.
He gently held it close in case it might feel cold. Much to his surprise, the birdie was hot. Like really hot.
"Is it sick? It's burning up!" he worriedly touched the birdie's beak.
Feeling his prying and prodding hands, Feng Mian grumbled awake. 'Who dared touch my beak!' he squeaked loudly.
"I think it's in pain. What to do?" Wren panicked even more. He ran around the cave, trying to find the bag he was carrying around. It was causally tossed to the side. He tossed everything down and found what he was looking for. The blood jade root.
It is said to heal anything.
"It can cure sickness, right?" he pinched off a bit of its root and ran back to the birdie.
Feng main was still dazed. He wanted the man to run to him in panic. 'What's wrong with him fussing so early in the morning? Yawnnn' suddenly his open mouth was filed by a bitter thing.
'eww!' he tried spitting out, but the man gripped his beak close.
'What the hell are you doing' Feng Mian kicked his fingers off and scratched at his tongue but the bitter feeling stuck around. 'What the fuck did you feed me, you bastard? I even saved your life for god's sake!!!'
Wren sighed, listening to its high-pitched squeaks. "Oh thank god. I think the root really works." he hugged the kicking bird close to his face and gently nuzzled against it. "I thought you were going to die."
Feng Mian froze. 'It should be me who should be worried, you stupid man. Not the other way around. What did you feed me?' he pointed to his beak.
Wren somehow understood what the bird was asking for. "Oh that was the blood jade root." he smiled at him dazzlingly.
Feng Mian froze. He blinked at him quickly.
"Did you not hear me? I said it was a blood jade root,"
Feng Mian on the other hand wanted to face plant. 'Blood jade root! Who uses the precious blood jade root for sickness!!! It is precious, you stupid thing!! Wait....' his overwhelming anger calmed down in an instant. 'You were willing to use something so precious on me? why.....'
Wren just smiled at him, silly.
'He does look silly. Does he not know what that herb was....'
"What is with that silly look birdie," Wren gently caressed his head. "Are you feeling good now? It made your sickness go away, right?"
Feng Mian slowed down. 'It looks like he knew its effect but why..... I guess I'll take that as a repayment for me helping you yesterday. But don't you dare think that I've forgiven you, you swine!!' he kept jumping on his hand.
Qu Wren happily looked at him with a smile. "You are so cute my little birdie." He kissed the unexpected bird's head.
Feng Mian froze stiffly. 'W—what do you think you are doing!!! You kissed me again!! Again!!! You pervert!! Perverted freak!! I will kill you,'
Wren watched the bird hide its red face between its legs. "Aww, you cutie pie. Is shall name you pie is that okay?"
Feng who was submerged in embarrassment did not hear this sentence and so his mighty name was changed into cutie pie.
Qu Wren placed the bird in the moss he found nearby and looked around the cave. There were traces of another person. Footprints of this person coming inside the cave were imminent, but he did not manage to find any footsteps of this mysterious person walking out. It looked like this person just disappeared out of thin air.
"Weird..." he mumbled as he wore his shirt and his pants. Thankfully, this person did not strip him of his underwear as well. He just simply did not care for such things, though.
He found a small piece of charcoal and wrote a thank you note on the wall, just in case this person came back.
Feng Mian finally looked up to see that man writing illegibly on the walls of the cave. 'what is that.....tha—thank you... oh.....' he rose his chest a bit higher. 'Of course you have to thank me. The great me has saved you from a hound and from the cooling rain.'
Wren came back and picked him up along with the moss. "Let's go. I have nothing to give to this person so I've left him some of the blood jade root parts."
'WHAT!!!!!!' Feng Mian jumped onto his shoulder and watched as the cave went further and further. 'This stupid man just left that herb in there!!!! It's mine.' He jumped down and ran back in.
"Hey!!" Wren hurried after him to see the birdie pick up the parts of the blood jade and swallow it.
"You can't!!!"
But it was too late. The piece of the precious herb was already inside its little tummy.
