Rivers and lakes

The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.The two hadn't spoken for a while, but Gu Wuyou suddenly felt awkward.He hurriedly looked away, coughed and said, "I saw that sable's nest today, shall we catch one when we have time?"

Han Lu raised his head, a pair of star-like pupils shone with stars, creating a smile as warm as the spring breeze in March for no reason.Gu Wuyou only heard a deep magnetic voice echoing in his ears: "You're so hurt, do you still want to go?"

Gu Wuyou was a little dazed, quickly shook his head, blinked and said, "Of course I'm going, I've been greedy for a long time."

When he came out of the pharmacy after applying the medicine, it was already dark.The two walked into the small courtyard, Han Lu was obviously in a good mood, suddenly raised his head and said, "The moon is so beautiful today."

"Really?" Gu Wuyou looked up, and suddenly saw a huge full moon hanging on the eaves in the distance.A few dark clouds brushed across the soft white moon, and in the endless starless night sky, only this new moon was as bright as a bead.

Gu Wuyou almost blurted out: "What day is it today?"

"Today is Shangyuan Festival, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."

Gu Wuyou nodded after hearing this, and said without changing expression: "It's getting late, then I'll go back to my room first. You go to bed early too."

"it is good."

Once back in the room, Gu Wuyou immediately closed the door.Pull out the charcoal brazier from under the bed, light the fire, and pull out several thick quilts from the cabinet and put them on the bed.Think about it, hurry over and close the window.

Every fifteenth night, Gu Wuyou would be so cold that his hands and feet would be cold and his whole body would tremble.I didn't pay attention when I was young, and even fainted from the cold.If the head hadn't appeared in time, this life would have been gone long ago.

The cotton batting has already covered several beds, and it is heavy on the body, but there is no warmth.Gu Wuyou stayed on the bed for a while, and his body began to feel cold. He added cotton wool to the quilt, and was thinking about lighting another pot of fire when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Gu Wuyou had no choice but to stand up and open the door, only to open the door, the wind from outside the door poured in.

Normally, I would feel nothing, but tonight it seemed particularly penetrating.Gu Wuyou was shivered by the oncoming wind.

Gu Wuyou restrained the trembling of his body, and asked as calmly as possible: "Is there something wrong?"

Standing outside the door was Nangong Mu.She held a small bowl, looked into Gu Wuyou's eyes, and said lightly, "This is the dessert I just made, everyone has it, do you want to try it?"

Just as Gu Wuyou was about to refuse, she heard Nangong Mu say: "It's boiling hot, it's very warm after drinking."

Gu Wuyou said: "Thank you then." After saying that, he was about to go in with a small bowl.

Nangong Mu said: "Drink it now, why, are you afraid it will be poisonous?" After finishing speaking, he picked up the bowl of soup and took a sip.

Nangong Mudu had already said so, how could Gu Wuyou refuse, he took the bowl and drank it down.Although the taste is a bit strange, the hot soup is really comfortable to drink in the stomach.

Gu Wuyou let out a long sigh of satisfaction, and returned the bowl to Nangong Mu.Nangong Mu saw Gu Wuyou's fat hands that were still swollen and painful, but he nodded and left without asking any further questions.

Gu Wuyou hurriedly closed the door, breathed on his cold hands, and there was a strange smell in the hot air he exhaled.It smells like rust.Isn't this the smell of blood?Gu Wuyou was a little confused, but he didn't care, and shrank under the quilt.

Warm night.

It was pitch black outside, and before the rooster crowed, Gu Wuyou suddenly woke up from his sleep.There were crystal beads of sweat on his forehead, feeling the almost feverish warmth in the quilt, Gu Wuyou felt relieved.

He actually fell asleep last night, if he froze to death like this, it would be a big loss.

The charcoal fire in the room had been burned out, and the heavy quilt was pressed on his body, Gu Wuyou didn't bother to move, so he just lay down again.It was rare to have such a good sleep on the night of the fifteenth day, so Gu Wuyou closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The next day, because his hands were swollen and he couldn't hold the sword well, Gu Wuyou didn't go to practice the sword. He took the clothes to the well to wash, and happened to meet Nangong Mu who was drying the clothes.These days, she has been wearing Zuo Luo's clothes, and the size is suitable.

After Nangong Mu finished drying the clothes, he turned around and saw that his hands were still abnormally swollen, so he said, "Why don't you put the clothes on and I'll wash them for you."

Gu Wuyou declined and said, "Thank you, Miss Nangong, I'm not disabled to such an extent, I can come by myself." In fact, his hands were rubbed with ointment and should not touch water, but for some reason, Gu Wuyou was a little wary of her.

Although this woman had never acted out of line, Gu Wuyou was inexplicably wary the moment she stood there.

Nangong Mu didn't force it, and asked casually: "Did you sleep well last night?"

"Very good, thank you."

Gu Wuyou poured water into the basin, looked at Nangong Mu's back, and wanted to ask her why she was so kind to him on weekdays, but couldn't.What if the girl is only nice to everyone?

Thinking of this, Gu Wuyou regained his senses, and suddenly saw Nangong Mu holding his forehead, his body was shaking.While Gu Wuyou was wondering, Nangong Mu's body had already collapsed.

Gu Wuyou quickly dropped the clothes in his hands, supported Nangong Mu's waist, and let her lean on his shoulders.After feeling the pulse and checking the pupils, Gu Wuyou was relieved, she was just anemic.

He picked her up, and when he walked back to Zuo Luo's room, he happened to bump into the head of the sect watching the masters and nephews practicing swords.Gu Wuyou said loudly: "Sect Leader, help me get some medicine, she's fainted from anemia."

Gu Wuyou stood by the bed, and nodded his head only when he heard from the master that it was just a blood loss and it was nothing serious.Can't help but ask: "Why do you lose too much blood?"

Zhang Kailing sat in front of the bed and looked up at him.The latter reacted belatedly, and before he had time to blush, he was forcefully dragged out by a person behind him.

"Slow down." Gu Wuyou's words didn't help at all.

Han Lu pulled Gu Wuyou out of the room, and asked with a cold face, "Why are you so concerned about her?"

"what?"

"Are you familiar with her? Do you know if a man and a woman give or take kisses?"

"I……"

Before Gu Wuyou could finish speaking, Han Lu flinched and left.

Gu Wuyou, who was scolded for nothing, said, "..."

Fortunately, the returning air from the cold road did not affect him to accompany Gu Wuyou up to the mountain to catch the mysterious beast.

Three days later.

Qingcheng Mountain has been evergreen for thousands of years, and it is a piece of green.Gu Wuyou stepped on the dead branches left by the winter, making a clicking sound.

He held up the small cage and said, "I'll try to lure the big one away later. You go to the nest to see if the small one is a mutant, so why not just catch that one?"

Gu Wuyou's hands were almost healed, and it was time for the old and new grudges to be settled together.

Han Lu followed behind him, humming softly.

Gu Wuyou stopped, handed him the cage in his hand, and said, "I'll give you the cage, you will be careful later. The poison of the small mink is probably more poisonous than the big one, but it has no other attack power except for biting."

"Ah."

The two walked gently towards the sable's cave.

Han Lu followed behind Gu Wuyou, taking advantage of Wuyou's inattention, and unscrupulously looked at his back.

If Gu Wuyou looked back now, he would definitely find that Han Lu's eyes were glued to his body, like a dog's skin plaster, which he couldn't tear off.

Han Lu suddenly asked: "I remember you once soiled your clothes to make way for spiders. I thought you respected life like the monks in Baochan Temple. Why are you spending so much effort to catch minks now?"

In fact, this is also something that Han Lu doesn't understand.

Han Lu suddenly remembered that before autumn, Gu Wuyou caught a mouse by the stream, tied it to a rope and hung it to play.But the mouse who disliked him so much didn't want to play with him, and only left him a round butt.

Gu Wuyou didn't have the awareness that everyone would hate him, he hung the mouse's legs like a swing, making the mouse dizzy, even letting the mouse beg for mercy.

At that time, Gu Wuyou played with the mouse for a long time, and Han Lu hid behind the tree and watched for a long time.

Gu Wuyou walked in front, without turning his head, he said without hesitation: "I release spiders because I like it, and I want to catch minks because I like it. There are so many moral scruples, it's just for fun."

In fact, Gu Wuyou didn't know what Han Lu was talking about. Normally, he would pity all spiders and centipedes for their lives—it wasn't such a big deal, so naturally he wouldn't remember it.

But after Han Lu heard this reason, the corners of his mouth curled up in an imperceptible arc.

Worry free.

Wuyou, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, turned around and whispered, "Wait here, I'll lure the female mink away."

According to legend, the mink is a very kind animal. If it sees someone frozen on the snow in winter, it will lean over to warm that person with its own body temperature.

Gu Wuyou tried it before, and it turned out that that mutated little beast was smarter than him.Gu Wuyou believed the legend, but Sable did not believe him.For this reason, Gu Wuyou was very depressed.

Gu Wuyou came to the outside of the sable's nest, and only then took a look into the nest. The calf-protecting female mink came out of the nest immediately, and looked at Gu Wuyou with a grin, clearly saying: "Damn, it's another You, I remember you!"

Gu Wuyou: "..."

Gu Wuyou pulled out the saber in his hand, but before he finished drawing, the female mink suddenly rushed towards him.Gu Wuyou was so frightened that he didn't even have time to draw out his sword, so he stretched out his feet and ran wildly.

The female mink was obviously irritated by Gu Wuyou's attack twice and three times, and immediately ran towards Gu Wuyou.

One person and one sable ran away at full speed, Han Lu saw them running far away, so he came out from behind and came to the sable's nest.Opening the cage, Han Lu lit a cigarette and threw it into the nest.Smoke billowed from the nest.

The three little sables were so choked by the smoke that they were about to poke their heads out.Unexpectedly, the first one just took a head, and saw the open cage facing the nest, and the cold road with a face of "come in, it's over".

Sable was so frightened that he stopped urgently, and the two behind him were blocked in the hole.

Han Lu was taken aback for a moment, he never imagined that a sable who had been smoked like this could control the pace of running.Now I want to reach out to catch the sable.

The sables, whose teeth were not fully formed, tried their best to fight against the claws of the cold road, but apart from biting, they had no resistance moves at all.

The helpless little sables resorted to housekeeping skills——screamed.

The female mink who was still entangled with Gu Wuyou suddenly stopped because she heard the children calling for help.The female mink scratched her front paws angrily, turned around and wanted to go back.

Gu Wuyou quickly stood in front of it.Sable glared at Gu Wuyou, with a clear expression on his face, saying: "Despicable human beings, they will plan on my child!"

Gu Wuyou didn't feel ashamed at all of bullying animals, he held his sword and talked: "Come on, let's fight for three hundred rounds."

The female mink's paws dug deep claw marks on the ground, and it suddenly raised its head and howled loudly, its high-pitched voice spreading through the forest, then looked at Gu Wuyou with a haughty face, clearly saying: "You think that Are you the only one with help? Stupid human being."

Gu Wuyou: "..." How could he forget that a female ferret with children has a husband!

Well times!

Gu Wuyou ran away again without a fight, and ran back.

The cold road is still there.
