Starting from Dunhuang City, walking along the post road to the southeast, the field of vision becomes wider and wider, and the terrain changes more and more. There are rolling hills in the vicinity and cascading mountain peaks in the distance, stretching to the end of the line of sight.

In the cold winter season, there are no people on the post road, and the post stations are closed. These few days are rarely sunny, but there are still snowflakes on the road.The snow does not fall from the sky, but the snow on the ground is blown up by the wind.No matter how strong the wind is, the snow will be as powerful as it is. The snowflakes hit the face horizontally, like needlepoints, cold and painful.

In such weather, only a fool would go to the mountains.

But there were two fools riding horses on the vast and empty mountain road.

In order to save energy, the two seldom talked along the way, but leaned against each other to keep warm.It's been less than a day since the two expressed their feelings for each other, but they didn't even have the time to be lingering, they could only steal a moment of lingering love during the bumpy road.

The clear sky and the vast land are like two mirrors, reflecting their figures.

The Qilian Mountains are narrow and long, spanning hundreds of miles, and are composed of numerous peaks of varying heights. The post roads are spread along the mountain streams.However, to find the place where the ice lotus plant grows, it is not enough to just walk along the post road. You have to go to the snow-covered place on the top of the mountain. Those places are inaccessible, and horses are not available, so you can only climb with your feet.

Zhao Shitu found an unoccupied post station, tied the horses into the leeward stable, and knocked on the door.

Although there was no one in the post station, the doors and windows were still in good condition, and the beds, tables and chairs were also kept. Zhao Shitu shook off the snow on his body, looked at the sky outside the window, and said: "Shangguan, wait for me here, I will go into the mountain Go find it."

Shangguanqing immediately said: "I will accompany you."

Zhao Shitu withdrew his gaze, looked at him with concern and said, "No need, your previous injury hasn't recovered yet, I'm afraid you'll catch the cold again..."

Shangguan Qing interrupted him, shaking his head and said, "I just want to be with you."

His tone was not an order, but an earnest begging, and he closed his mouth after speaking, waiting for the other party's decision.

Since that night, he has always maintained a cautious attitude, for fear of saying something wrong and offending the lover around him. Every time he really asked for something, he would use this tone of asking for instructions, but unconsciously brought out a trace of grievance , even he himself hadn't noticed it.

Looking at his appearance, Zhao Shitu thought it was kind of funny and cute.Although in the past, Shangguanqing had a stiff face all day long, and she definitely didn't have a chance to describe her as cute.But recently, he seems to have shown a new look.

Funny enough, Zhao Shitu couldn't ignore the forbearance and anticipation in his tone, so he leaned forward, put his arms around his shoulders, patted his back, and comforted him, "Then let's go together."

Shangguanqing was not lucky in his life, and he was rejected countless times, but if everyone in the world had to reject him once, Zhao Shitu would definitely be the last one.

This person regards him as a treasure, how could he not feel it.

The two climbed on the narrow mountain road, and his eyes fell on each other from time to time.

Zhao Shitu finally felt it, stopped and asked, "Why do you always look at me?"

Shangguan said: "Because you are good-looking."

Zhao Shitu couldn't help laughing out loud: "Oh, if I didn't know that what you swallowed was poison, I would have thought that what was in the Ziyun Cauldron was Xiaoyaozisan, and my heart was full of enthusiasm. Look, your temperament has changed now. "

Shangguan's face became hot when he said it, and he immediately defended: "I'm telling the truth, but I haven't said it before."

Zhao Shitu was originally walking in front, but after hearing what he said, he immediately withdrew his body, approached him in a serious manner, and looked him up from the bottom up: "Oh? So you used to peek at me often?"

He lowered his eyelids slightly, and his eyes just fell on Zhao Shitu's face. The two were not close to each other. Shangguanqing saw that his brows were delicate and warm, the corners of his eyes drooped slightly, and his outline was not as sharp and rigid as his own. Lively, like a flowing river, jumping light.

Such a face, a person, let alone a year or so, let him look at it for a lifetime, and he will never get tired of it.

The sudden thought made him unable to help raising his hand, and touched that cheek that never got tired of looking with the palm of his hand.

Zhao Shitu was startled for a moment, then smiled, took his hand, and pulled him up another rock.

They walked non-stop for nearly an hour, and they were close to the top of the mountain.Here the wind is louder, the terrain is steeper, and there is no road between the jagged rocks, so we can only feel our way forward while walking.Fortunately, the top of the mountain was not far away, and apart from stones and withered grass, snow began to appear on the ground.

Shangguan Qing walked and said: "I also find it strange that after taking Mr. Xiao's elixir, instead of feeling uncomfortable, I am much more relaxed than before."

Zhao Shitu thought about himself, he didn't seem to have any special feelings, and asked in surprise, "How did you feel before? Could it be that you have been enduring pain all the time?"

Shangguan Qing frowned slightly, but quickly shook his head and said, "It's not worth mentioning."

Zhao Shitu's heart trembled, he turned his head to look at him, and insisted: "Tell me, I want to know."

Shangguan Qing lowered her head and thought for a moment, then slowly said: "...It's nothing, but there will be a throbbing pain in the meridian from time to time, like insects and ants gnawing, or like needle tip pricking, intermittently, sometimes awakened at night."

Zhao Shitu's brows were tightened, and he asked: "What else?"

Shangguan Qing said: "Sometimes I have a fever, the symptoms are strange, the forehead is hot, but the limbs are cold,"

Zhao Shitu said: "Could it be that these symptoms have been present since childhood?"

Shangguanqing nodded and said: "I've been used to it since Miracle Doctor Xiao sealed my acupoints."

Zhao Shitu didn't know how to answer, but a bitterness welled up in his throat.

But Shangguanqing still said: "I think Mr. Xiao has excellent medical skills and a kind heart, which is why he can refine such poison."

Zhao Shitu looked at his profile, wanted to speak several times, but didn't know what to say.

The children of the rivers and lakes, who doesn't yearn to be unrestrained, unrestrained, and truly live for themselves.But after he practiced the evil kung fu, he not only betrayed his relatives and estranged himself from others, but also endured the pain beyond ordinary people. He was not blessed to endure the things that ordinary people are accustomed to.

He didn't even open his mouth to drink.

Thinking of this, Zhao Shitu suddenly had an idea, and asked, "By the way, if the seal on your acupoints has been released, can you drink alcohol?"

Shangguanqing quickly understood what he meant, and said hesitantly, "But we still have to hurry."

Zhao Shitu had already untied the jug he was carrying with him from his waist, held it up in front of him and shook it.This wine was originally brought by him to keep out the cold, but now it has a more suitable purpose.

He pointed to the stone platform not far away: "I'm tired, let's rest in front for a while."

They walked for a while, and sat side by side on a relatively flat stone platform. The cliff behind them blocked the wind and snow for them, enclosing a small but peaceful habitat.

Zhao Shitu opened the jug and handed it to Shangguanqing, who took it with one hand and raised it to his lips. At first he just swallowed it cautiously, then simply raised his neck and poured it down his throat.

Zhao Shitu watched his Adam's apple tumbling, swallowing rhythmically, a little wine seeped out from the corner of his mouth, and merged into a strand of filaments, the ponytail was originally messed up by the wind, but now it fell back to the back of his head, hanging down weakly.

He drank most of the jug of wine in this way, finally stopped, put the jug aside, and turned his head in Zhao Shitu's direction.The ponytail was thrown back by him, and a few strands of hair fell down and hung on his shoulders.

His face was no longer pale, but had a rosy color from the alcohol.His jet-black eyes were deeper than usual, filled with mist.

Zhao Shitu was surprised, and after a while, he heard the other party's voice.

Shangguan seemed a little dizzy, propped his forehead with one hand, moved his lips, and called his name in a low voice.

Zhao Shitu replied softly: "I am here." Leaning over, he put his hand on the back of the opponent's hand.

Shangguan Qing stared at him with those eyes full of water, after a long time, finally closed his eyes, then straightened his back, took a deep breath suddenly, and began to chant softly.

He sang:

"The sky is boundless and the earth is boundless, and my heart is full of sorrows--

Life is as fleeting as the passing of a white horse, but it is joyous and never fails to live up to its prime—"

The singing is soothing, the melody is melodious, and the magnetic voice line rises and falls, like a huqin coming from a distant place.

The clear sky and the boundless land are all melted into his singing.
