Jiaohua

Chapter 988
After a long time, the stone stopped and the echo stopped.

"It's the stone steps," Xia Zhaoyi said, "the southeast corner is eight feet deep."

"You come." Shen Lie handed over a stone.

Xia Zhaoyi raised his hand, found the right angle and threw it towards the other end.

The stone rolls and rolls, rolls and rolls, and the lingering sound returns.

"It can be confirmed that there are no corpses over there, and there is no sound of hitting the bones." Shen Lie said.

"Master talked about Yuetang Temple, it was hundreds of years ago," Xia Zhaoyi frowned slightly, "But I don't know if this place is really related to Longyuan, if not, we are just passing by."

Thinking of this, Xia Zhaoyi thought of Shen Yan, and turned to look at Shen Lie: "Shen Fan, can I write to you?"

"No."

"I stabbed him in the face..."

"You can stab him anywhere, I won't stop him." Shen Lie looked at her.

Xia Zhaoyi smiled lowly: "Dear younger brother."

Shen Lie also laughed.

Xia Zhaoyi picked up a stone and threw it down again.

This time, I didn't deliberately look for an angle. The stone fell on the bones. Although the knocking sound was clear, it was also light.

Xia Zhaoyi stood up and said, "Forget it, it has nothing to do with it, we can't do anything for a while, the air below is thin, and the fire can't hold it, let alone you and me."

"But the loud noise is strange," Shen Lie said, "under what circumstances would the engine suddenly shut down inside a huge, immovable mountain? Back then in the Qianqiu Palace, it was the waterfall that rained water, which was affected by the large waterwheel, but Inside here, it doesn't look like there is water."

Xia Zhaoyi frowned: "I don't understand it for a while, let's think about it slowly."

"Yeah." Shen Lie looked down the secret passage, always feeling uneasy.

The two of them left the main hall, it was still early in the morning, and it was about three hours before they arrived.

Xia Zhaoyi asked Shen Lie to go to bed first, but Shen Lie didn't want to, but finally went anyway.

Xia Zhaoyi sat down at another part of the lake, looking at the mountains, the waterfall, and the end of the sky.

The pursuers appeared on the other side of the trestle bridge around [-]:[-] pm.

Not many people came to the top of the mountain here, only about [-] people.

People in the world are afraid of heights, nine out of ten, such a long trestle is suspended in the air, rickety, just looking down, it makes people feel timid.

Everyone looks at me, I look at you, I don't know whether to go or not.

Several people couldn't make up their minds, and one of them suddenly saw a figure walking slowly on the long mountain road next to the waterfall below.

"Is there a figure in the middle of the mountain!" The soldier shouted.

Everyone followed and looked, and there really was.

But it's not a young girl, but a 35-year-old clear-cut man, wearing a purple-gray robe with long sleeves, and his facial features cannot be seen clearly. He is walking slowly with a basket in his hand and a bamboo stick in his hand. .

"This person is someone who lives in the mountains."

"There is a road over there, why don't we go around this trestle bridge, let's go through the mountains below?"

"This man is so weird." A soldier stared closely at the pale man.

The word "weird" made all the soldiers feel cold inexplicably in broad daylight.

"Stop talking nonsense."

"He's a good guy, but you say he's weird."

The soldier pointed: "He has a Taoist head upright, but he is wearing a pair of embroidered shoes."

Everyone looked, but the distance was too far, and the sight was not as good as that of the soldier.

And soon, this person disappeared from their sight.

"Let's go, there is no weird person."

"It's just a hermit on the mountain. We will pass through another mountain, so we won't go this way."

"Let's go."

……

The soldiers turned around and left while talking.

In the late afternoon, Shen Lie woke up on the wooden bed.

Come out from the wing room, but there is no beautiful girl.

The place where he boiled water in the morning, there was a bunch of bubbling sounds, and she found two pots from nowhere, a pot of fish soup, a pot of steamed fish, and a pot of boiling water.

Shen Lie looked around, but couldn't see her.

He specially cut down the tree stick for her and put it beside the fish pot.

"Ali?" Shen Lie called out very lightly.

No one responded.

Shen Lie frowned, turned around and ran to today's hall, which was empty.

After he came out, he searched all the wing rooms, but there was still no her.

Not in the rest of the main halls, not in the waterways and lakes, not in every part of the entire mountain.

Shen Lie returned to the fish pot, looking around in confusion with deep eyes, not knowing where she had gone.

Feeling something at this time, he turned his head and saw a line of words written with a branch in front of the stone she was sitting on before.

Shen Lie walked over quickly, suddenly relieved, and then couldn't laugh or cry.

"The view on the roof is nice, go up and take a nap, don't worry."

Which roof, but did not say clearly.

Shen Lie is strong and athletic, but for this kind of bucket arch-style eaves, he is completely inferior to the girl's proficiency and lightness in climbing and overturning.

After searching several places, I finally saw Xia Zhaoyi lying on his back and sleeping soundly on the roof of a hall.

Probably couldn't stand the bloody clothes on her body, so she took off her coat. The gown inside was still stained with blood, but it was much better than the outer one.

She was in such a casual posture, lying on the flat roof of the roof without any particular attention, letting the spring sun shine on her body.

In the eyes of the world, if a girl looks like this, she will be criticized for not being reserved.

Shen Lie looked at her from the side, but suddenly showed his face, smiling freely.

What is reserve?
The girl he admired grew up in the mountains and rivers, with an elegant and calm body, and a regular and regular demeanor in a non-noble family.

Her nobility and elegance are the leisurely nature of the world, the ease of the world, high mountains and flowing water, white deer and green cliffs, how many women in the world can possess this aura, as clear and unrestrained as she is.

Black eyes fell on her bloody clothes, Shen Lie quietly went over and took the clothes away.

After the sun went down, Xia Zhaoyi was woken up by the cool wind on the top of the mountain. Shen Lie sat on the rock below to chop wood branches, and heard a soft whisper from above.

Shen Lie raised his head against the sunset, and the girl who had just woken up ran to the cornice: "Shen Lie, my clothes were blown..."

She turned her head slightly and saw several fires twenty steps ahead of Shen Lie.

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, her clothes were slowly roasting on the splendid bonfire.

She looked at her clothes, and then at the handsome young man in the glazed sunset glow.

Lightly falling from the roof, Xia Zhaoyi said, "Did you wash the clothes for me?"

Shen Lie noticed that when she landed, her feet were still limping, and she frowned slightly due to the pulling of the wound.

"Well, I washed it." Shen Lie put down the dagger and long wood, got up and walked, "I can't wash it clean, I just barely soaked it with wild herbs to remove the fishy smell."

Xia Zhaoyi didn't know what to say, so he laughed, "Although you don't like being polite, I really want to tell you again..."

"Ali." Shen Lie interrupted her lightly, his voice was gentle, but his black eyes were serious.

"Forget it," Xia Zhaoyi said with a smile, "it's gone, I'll get it."

"Ah."

Because of the fire, the clothes are dry and still warm.

There are more than one kind of vanilla on it, which is very clear and quiet, and the fire below is also burning with Lanzhi and Duheng, the fragrance is infecting and lingering.

"Vanilla is often associated with the word romance, and it is always accompanied by frivolity and generosity that sprinkles the sky. If you don't know, you can't guess that we are running for our lives." Xia Zhaoyi looked back and smiled.

Shen Lie looked at her and smiled faintly.

Xia Zhaoyi quickly put on her clothes, picked up her crutches and walked, said: "I didn't expect you to wake up earlier than me, I thought it would be me who got up first, when I closed my eyes, and opened them, the sun went west. "

"It's getting dark, shall we go down the mountain now?" Shen Lie said.

"Okay, there's no need to clean up these." Xia Zhaoyi looked at those pots and pans.

Although it is unethical to be so scattered, everything on this mountain was abandoned hundreds of years ago. If someone later wants to rebuild this mountain, they should clean it up along the way.

Shen Lie put the sharpened wooden branches into the quiver that he had just made, and left with Xia Zhaoyi.

There are many ways to go down the mountain here, but when it is time to leave, Shen Lie suddenly feels a little bit reluctant.

He looked towards the surrounding houses, and the pale white and gray buildings were silent and peaceful in the deep twilight.

Small theater: (the following words will not be charged ^_^)

Zhili (shaking the bowl): Give me the ticket, give me the ticket, give me the recommended ticket and the monthly pass for this little cutie. qaq
Crowd: Fragmented, why did you come out to shout?

Fragmented (hugging someone's thigh casually, lasagna tears): The stepmother author said that I, who barely rely on family relations to be regarded as a marginal protagonist group, can only rely on recommendation tickets and monthly tickets to keep the status of the protagonist group up. π.π
　Thank you for the reward of the dynamic cat, _(:з」∠)_
