Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"No, I don't mind." Old Master Nan laughed. Why should he mind traveling with Long Qian Xing? If it was Long Xu Nian, he might mind a lot, but since it was this brat, he didn't mind at all.

Long Qian Xing smiled. "Thank you for your hospitality, General Nan."

Inside the carriage, Feng Ao Kuai was restraining Nan Luo. Nan Luo wanted to get out and yelled that he was the one who minded it. However, Feng Ao Kuai would naturally not want Nan Luo to tarnish their image.

Why did they have to make things difficult for that young commander when it was unnecessary?

"Luo."

With one word from Nan Hua, Nan Luo finally stopped. He was still sulking but he knew that his twin sister wouldn't like it if he confronted the general. Forget it, he would rather stick close to his twin sister more than anything.

The journey would last a few days since they were not moving at fast pace.

Thus, Nan Luo ended up glaring at Long Qian Xing when the latter came to their small group to eat.

"Young Commander Long, there are many others place and you choose to come here?" Nan Luo asked, partially rude because of his annoyance.

Long Qian Xing chuckled when he saw Nan Luo emitting such hostility to him. He felt that these brats were really cute. "Am I not allowed to join in when you build a campfire for more people?"

Feng Ao Si looked at Long Qian Xing and furrowed his eyebrows. "We build it to roast the meat."

He hunted several rabbits with Nan Luo not long ago while Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Hua were building the campfire. They ended up with quite a lot and after cleaning it up, they decided to roast it.

"May I join in, Young Miss Nan?" Long Qian Xing asked with a faint smile.

Feng Ao Kuai was watching Long Qian Xing and felt a bit irritated. He could see that Long Qian Xing knew that they were all revolving around Nan Hua and felt that it was something that was a bit annoying.

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and nodded. "Yes, Brother Long."

"Hua'er…"

"In that case, please excuse me."

The others merely sent a gaze at Long Qian Xing then focused on roasting their meat. Nan Hua was also holding a stick in her hand with the meat stuck at the other end. Her eyes were watching the fire in front of with indifference.

Feng Ao Kuai took another stick from the side. "Would you like to roast meat too, Young Commander Long?"

"There's no need."

Long Qian Xing had no interest on taking little kids' food. He brought a rather good wood with him and a knife. Slowly but surely, his hand moved to carve the wood in his hand. The sound of wood scratching attracted the others near him.

"Wood carving?" Nan Luo asked in curiosity.

"Young Commander Long could carve?" Feng Ao Si was even more blunt.

"Yes." Long Qian Xing admitted readily. This was a skill that he had from the modern world. Even though the equipment was not that good, he still could carve some simple structures.

Nan Luo blinked his eyes. "Was the present you gave to Hua'er before something you carve by yourself?"

He still remembered that Long Qian Xing seemed to have given Nan Hua an exquisite carving in a necklace back then. The carving was a bit crude, though. However, the purpose of the necklace was to deliver message, so they turned blind eyes to that.

Come to think about it, Hua'er still kept that necklace, right?

"Yes." Long Qian Xing pursed his lips. "Since the gift didn't seem to be appropriate, I have been thinking of making a different one for Hua'er. Would you please accept this little gift, Hua'er?"

Nan Hua raised her head. She originally wanted to say no need but seeing his gaze, the words were swallowed back to her throat. Slowly, she nodded. "Thank you, Brother Long."

Long Qian Xing smiled. "Please wait. It'll be done soon."

"Okay."

Seeing the obedient Nan Hua, Nan Luo felt his heart was pierced. He looked at his little sister with longing gaze but since she didn't reject him, he couldn't bring himself to tell her not to.

Feng Ao Kuai was Nan Hua's right hand, so he also didn't try to dissuade Nan Hua. Even though his eyebrows creased slightly in displease, he still accepted what Nan Hua wanted to do.

Only Feng Ao Si didn't seem to care that much.

Before long, the wood in Long Qian Xing's hand had changed to that of a rabbit. It looked pretty and exquisite, much better than the crude carving that Long Qian Xing gave to Nan Hua in the past.

"For you, Hua'er."

"Thank you, Brother Long."

Long Qian Xing merely smiled. He looked at the other brats and arched his eyebrows. "Would you like me to teach you how to carve?"

"Yes!"

"Please teach us!"

Nan Hua furrowed her eyebrows when she saw them so excited. "Eat first."

"Oh."

They immediately began to eat the roasted meat that was almost overcooked because they were busy watching Long Qian Xing. Right now, they didn't dare to delay in the slightest bit.

Nan Hua looked at the roasted meat in front of her. It was a bit lacking without enough spices but since she didn't have anything right now, she broke a part of the meat and handed it to Long Qian Xing. "For Brother Long."

Long Qian Xing blinked his eyes then laughed. He really wanted to say that it was unnecessary but seeing the serious expression on the girl's face, he couldn't bring himself to do that. He picked the meat. "Thank you, Hua'er."

"Mhm."

As Long Qian Xing was eating, the other boys were all glaring at him. To think that Nan Hua treated him well because of the wood carving… they suddenly felt the need to learn how to carve well!
