Chapter 200 Nothing more than that
With every step he took, the pain in Shen Yanfeng's body became more intense. He didn't show it on his face, but his hands as he held Shen Jun were already trembling slightly.
Shen Jun is too fragile now, and Shen Yanfeng must ensure that Shen Jun can at least safely spend his childhood in this world.
Because he used his own power to forcibly change the plot, Shen Yanfeng is now unsure of the direction the changed plot will develop in.
His body had already been punished, and Shen Yanfeng was not sure what uncontrollable things would happen in this plot.
Now, he could only do his best to bring Shen Jun to a place as safe as possible.
The rain in the air began to fall again, drops hitting Shen Yanfeng, and then disappeared into his black windbreaker.
The smell of blood was gradually diluted by the raindrops. Shen Yanfeng paused for a moment, as if he thought of something. He looked down at Shen Jun in his arms.
The baby in his arms was sleeping soundly, and the swaddling clothes were kept clean and warm by Shen Yanfeng. Shen Jun was protected in his arms and was no longer wet by the raindrops.
The wind blew across the mountains, and the drifting raindrops were mixed with a faint scent of gardenia. Shen Yanfeng keenly captured the unique fragrance in the air.
He raised his head and looked in the direction where the fragrance came from.
On the hillside not far ahead, a warm yellow light was flickering lonely on the top of the mountain like a lonely star.
There was a knock on the door on a rainy night, and a man who looked quite old opened the door.
The night wind mixed with raindrops drifted into the room, the man's eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness the next second.
Shen Yanfeng stood in the room, carefully looked at the situation inside, and finally gently placed the baby in his arms on the bed not far away.
The blood on his body continued to flow out tirelessly, and the black windbreaker was dyed dark red under the light.
Holding on to the last bit of strength, Shen Yanfeng turned around and helped the man lying on the ground up. He raised his hand and drew a talisman-like mark on the man's head.
The next second, the mark instantly melted into the man's forehead and finally disappeared there.
After doing all this, Shen Yanfeng suddenly felt a fishy and sweet taste in his throat, and dark red blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth. Shen Yanfeng raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth.
He hoped that the plot he had implanted in this man's mind with his last bit of strength would help Shen Jun get through this period smoothly.
Shen Yanfeng turned his head and looked at the baby lying on the bed with a serious look, then turned around and disappeared at the door.
After he left, the man who was still sleeping suddenly opened his eyes.
The rain was still falling outside, and a loud thunder broke through the night sky, echoing rumbles in the mountains.
As Shen Yanfeng walked on the road, he had a bad feeling in his heart. He had no strength in his body and every step he took seemed difficult.
Another bolt of lightning, accompanied by strong wind, struck directly on Shen Yanfeng's black windbreaker.
The black windbreaker was torn apart, revealing the skin underneath which was somewhat charred by lightning.
Blood seeped out from the seams of the clothes, dripping onto the ground and turning into a gorgeous blood flower blooming on the muddy ground.
Shen Yanfeng staggered a few times, but finally managed to steady himself.
He raised his head, his calm eyes slowly looking towards the night sky as dark as thick ink.
As if sensing Shen Yanfeng's gaze, thunder sounded again in the sky.
This time, the sound of thunder and lightning was more deafening than any previous time.
Another flash of lightning streaked across the night sky, and the lightning quickly attacked Shen Yanfeng like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue.
Raindrops and lightning fell, and Shen Yanfeng just stood there quietly, watching the lightning rushing towards him from the night.
With a loud bang, Shen Yanfeng had another charred scar on his chest, the same as the one on his back.
A few drops of blood couldn't stop oozing out of the corner of his mouth. Shen Yanfeng raised his arm with bulging veins and slowly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Is this your punishment? It seems... it's nothing more than this." Shen Yanfeng's lips curled up into a faint smile.
The thunder and lightning in the sky seemed to have heard Shen Yanfeng's words, and struck several more bolts of lightning at Shen Yanfeng's feet.
This time, it failed to hit Shen Yanfeng accurately, but just brushed Shen Yanfeng's feet and left a deep crack on the muddy ground.
Shen Yanfeng raised his eyes and looked at the night sky again, with a few unpredictable emotions in his eyes.
After a moment, he turned his head and looked at the small house on the hillside with warm yellow lights on.
"Wait for me, Shen Jun." After Shen Yanfeng said this, his figure suddenly flickered a few times like a broken TV screen, and then disappeared from the spot.
The rain finally stopped, and a few breezes blew across the inky black night sky, blowing away the thick clouds in the sky, revealing the twinkling stars behind them.
The next morning, the crying of a baby broke the tranquility of the forest. Fortunately, there were no people living around the small house on the hillside, so no one heard the crying of the child except the man in the house.
Shen Jun was lying on the bed in the small house, crying loudly. He didn't want to cry at first, but he couldn't speak in this baby's body. This was the only way he could get the man's attention.
Shen Shian had never taken care of a child. As a bachelor, he originally planned to build a house in the mountains and live out his life there alone, but God still gave him a child.
Although Shen Shian didn't quite remember where he brought the child back from, there was always something in his mind telling him to take good care of the child.
Although Shen Shian had never given birth to a child, she often watched other people raising children in the village when she was a child, so she learned a little bit.
Hearing Shen Jun crying, Shen Shi'an had no choice but to walk to the bed, pick up the child, hold him in his arms, and gently pat his back to comfort him.
Shen Jun opened his eyes wide and looked at the man in front of him. He looked to be almost fifty years old, with a few strands of white hair on his temples.
His somewhat dark face was covered with wrinkles, and he seemed to be older than fifty, but his eyes were extremely clear and bright. Shen Jun looked at him and felt a sense of intimacy for a moment.
The purpose of Shen Jun's crying just now was to attract the people in the room to come over so that he could see who the person was.
He remembered that he was clearly on the rooftop of the system building of the Quick Travel Bureau at the beginning. Later, he seemed to be pushed down the building, caught by someone, and then sent here.
And the person who saved him last night... Shen Jun knew that person was Shen Yanfeng, including the person who caught him from the roof.
He originally thought that the man in the room would also be Shen Yanfeng, but now it was obviously not him.
"Junzi?" Shen Shian saw Shen Jun staring at him with a pair of big round and watery eyes. For a moment, he thought that this baby was really adorable, so he called him by the nickname he had given him.
Shen Jun listened and realized that Shen Shian was only calling him. He subconsciously wanted to answer, but when he opened his mouth, the sound that came out was an innocent laugh.
When Shen Shian heard Shen Jun's answer, a smile immediately broke out on his face.
The relationship between people is so wonderful. Sometimes, just a glance can bring each other's hearts within reach from tens of thousands of miles away.
Shen Shian held the child in his arms, smiling so hard that his mouth couldn't close, but he didn't notice that a pair of deep eyes outside the window were staring at the two people in the room through the window crack.
