Biography of Xi Shan

Chen Daozhen and Jing Ji followed Heizi to a small lake. The patriarch seemed to have been there for a long time, and he was bending over and squatting on the ground rubbing something.

Jing Ji ran over in small steps, and said with a smile, "Patriarch, what are you looking for?"

"Oh, Xiaojing is here." The patriarch straightened up with a smile, "I didn't find anything, I'll feel if the stone is hot."

Jing Ji wondered, "This autumn is almost over, how could the stone be hot?"

The village chief shook his head mysteriously. He smiled and said, "There is a mystery under this ground. Come and find out if you don't believe me."

Jing Ji bent down half-believingly, and just touched the stone with his fingertips before being scalded, "It's really hot, Senior Brother Chen, come and touch it too." As he spoke, he stepped forward and grabbed Chen Daozhen hand.

Chen Daozhen bent down and touched it dumbfounded, and then quickly agreed: "It's really hot."

The patriarch pointed to the lake and said, "Actually, I'm not very clear about the doorway here. After all, it's a long time ago. In fact, there was another hidden road, but you also know that after that incident, you will be given It's sealed."

Jing Ji was confused when he heard it, and he asked in a daze, "Patriarch, isn't this the river? Where is the road you mentioned?"

The patriarch laughed meaningfully, pointed to the lake and said: "The exit is just below the river, but the door is blocked. It is strange to say that the river here will cool down only on the day of the fifteenth month. It will also loosen, and you can swim all the way along the passage to find the exit."

Jing Ji blinked and said slowly, "But I can't swim..."

The patriarch froze.

Heizi laughed suddenly, came up happily, and hurriedly said: "I don't think you should leave, or you can stay, you two are not young, and there are unmarried girls in the clan, just right I will be your daughter-in-law."

Chen Daozhen and Jing Ji: "..."

"What nonsense!" The patriarch swung Heizi away and scolded, "Can you say anything? You're as tall as you are but you don't have a brain, go away."

Heizi scratched his head and retreated reluctantly.

The patriarch smiled and said: "Don't pay attention to him, I think it's still early from the fifteenth day of the eighth month. Brother Jing looks smart, he is a savvy person. It's not difficult to learn how to float before the weather is cold. You Say?"

Jing Ji reluctantly nodded and smiled awkwardly.

After bidding farewell to the village chief, Chen Daozhen led the boy back.

Jing Ji said absent-mindedly, "I can't do anything."

"You live in the mountains on weekdays, so it's normal if you don't know how to float. Don't worry, if you can't learn it in a month, are you afraid you can't learn it in a year?"

Jing Ji pursed his lips and muttered softly: "I'm afraid Master is worried, I miss him."

Chen Daozhen laughed, and his handsome and cold eyebrows softened instantly, "You're acting like a baby again, do you want to recite it?"

"Yes." Jing Ji suddenly became happy, and before Chen Daozhen had time to squat down, he had already rushed towards his back, pushing him staggeringly.

Chen Daozhen picked him up, walked back slowly, and scolded him: "Naughty bastard."

"That's not true." Jing Ji hummed, and whispered in his ear, "I'm only being naughty with you."

Chen Dao's heart was as soft as if he was stepping on a ball of cotton. In this world, only Xiaojing could make him like it so much that the blood in his body was boiling for it.

As long as he smiles, it seems that brilliant and colorful flowers can bloom in the quiet winter night.

The two laughed and went back all the way. As soon as they reached the door, they saw Awang running away. The witch chased after him with a broom. After chasing to the door, they cursed a few words and turned around to see Chen Daozhen and Jing Ji came back.

The arrogance of the witch was extinguished in an instant, she threw the broom, shrank like a timid woman, turned around and ran away.

Jing Ji looked at Chen Daozhen suspiciously, and asked, "What's the matter, Ma'am?"

"Probably because we don't want us to see her like this." Chen Daozhen lowered his eyes and could only sigh helplessly.

Miss Chu's family, who was once magnificent and well-known all over the world, has fallen into such a state now that others don't mention it, but in front of Xiaojing, she may be inferior and guilty after all. She wants to be a kind, gentle and generous mother, but reality forces her It made her arrogant and vicious.

Jing Ji looked up at Chen Daozhen and said, "I'll go see her."

Chen Daozhen hooked his lips, feeling complicated.

Jing Ji went to the door of the room and knocked on the door. The witch quickly opened the door, her eyes were pleasantly surprised and then dimmed.

The witch's eyes lit up again as if she remembered something, "Come and try."

She picked up a padded jacket. Although the material was not of the highest quality, it was brand new and snow-white, which was already rare in this place where almost all peasants lived.

Jing Ji took the padded jacket in a daze, and gently touched the texture on it. Although he didn't quite understand it, he could tell that Wu Wuzi's handicraft was very good, with neat needle holes and all the knots were hidden.

The most important thing is that no one has ever made clothes for Jing Ji. He has no father and no mother. Although Liu Muyan treats him like a jewel, he cannot play the role of mother after all.He understands the principle of contentment and happiness, but occasionally he can imagine his parents. In his heart, his father should be like a master, kind-hearted, kind-hearted, hard-hearted, and his mother is probably like a witch, who will take care of him carefully. When preparing meals, you will worry about the coming of cold winter, and you will put him first in your heart.

Jing Ji's eyes were wet in an instant, and his voice choked up: "It would be great if you were my mother, I miss my mother very much sometimes."

The witch was taken aback, and her body trembled violently. She pushed Jing Ji away abruptly, waved her hand and said, "I'm not good, I'm not good, I'm not good for you."

Jing Ji took a step forward and said anxiously: "Why is it not good? You saved my life and made me new clothes. This is the first time someone made clothes for me. If my mother is still alive, it must be A gentle and kind person like you."

The witch raised her head slowly, with tears rolling in her eyes, she knew that she had changed over the years, became rude and rude, no different from ordinary rough village women.

It's also because of this that she always avoids Jing Ji, even if she can't recognize each other, she doesn't want her children to think that she is fierce and scary.

But now, his child was standing in front of him, telling her that she was what he imagined his mother would look like, and she was about to blurt out and tell the boy the truth.

Suddenly, the witch remembered Chen Daozhen's words, those exhortations were vivid in her memory, she hesitated for a moment, but swallowed the words back, raised her hand and said: "Try it quickly."

Jing Ji quickly responded and put on the padded jacket.

He turned around and asked with a smile, "Does it look good?"

The witch said sincerely: "It looks good."

Jing Ji was so proud that he said complacently, "I look good in my clothes."

The witch was all smiles, she couldn't get enough of it.

After a while, a thin layer of sweat appeared on the young man's face. If it wasn't too cold today, the witch's clothes were really well made, and he was sweating immediately after wearing them.

Jing Ji took off his clothes and said, "Ma'am, I want to ask you something."

The witch took the clothes and looked at them again and again. There were a few places she wanted to change, but she nodded involuntarily when she heard Jing Ji's question.

"Do you know senior Chu Nantian from the Chu family in Fuzhou?"

The witch stopped her hand, shook her head violently, and said in a panic, "I don't know, I don't know."

Jing Ji looked at her suspiciously, and asked, "Where did you hear the phrase 'nine days travel, gods and ghosts are unpredictable, the south is broken, and snow turns into spirit'?"

The witch frowned, her back was full of sweat, but suddenly she calmed down, and said lightly: "I am here, there must be a reason for me, Xiaojing, please don't tell others that I am here. "

"Then are you really Miss Chu?"

The witch looked at the boy's ignorant face, and nodded with difficulty.

Maybe there is one person whose son will inevitably know his life experience, at least on that day he will remember that the old woman he met in the land of no desire is his mother.

Jing Ji was stunned, he thought of the portrait of the girl he saw in the secret room, the person on the portrait overlapped with the witch for a moment, but when he thought about it carefully, they were still two different people.

Jing Ji said: "No matter who you are, I only know that you are my savior, the aunt who will cook for me and make clothes for me."

The witch nodded with red eyes. She couldn't help walking over and hugging the boy's shoulders, and said with tears: "Be careful when you go out. If you regret it, come back. It's safe here."

Jing Ji patted her shoulder reassuringly.

In the next month, the witch changed from the steps of the door to the chair by the window as if nothing had happened, her eyes still followed the boy's figure closely, the resentment on her body seemed to gradually dissipate, replaced by a Share wish has been free and easy.

In the morning, Awang would come to practice martial arts, and Chen Daozhen taught him the simplest set of swordsmanship. Awang repeatedly complained, and asked Chen Daozhen, "How old were you when you learned this?"

Chen Daozhen hit him mercilessly and said: "I practiced martial arts when I was two years old, and I have never practiced such a simple move."

Awang was blocked and had nothing to say, so he could only continue to practice patiently.

When the sun was at its peak in the afternoon, Chen Daozhen took Jing Ji to swim in the lake. Jing Ji was a landlubber, and he couldn't even splash water for a few days at first, so he was laughed at by Awang for a long time.

But Chen Daozhen was very defensive, he splashed a pool of lake water with his hand and poured Awang a chill, Awang was convinced and angry at the same time.

On August [-]th, Chen Daozhen and Jing Ji packed their things. According to the patriarch, the door in the water was difficult to open, and the passage was not long.

But after all, you have to go into the water, and you can't bring many things with you, so you can only pack up the necessary items hastily and leave here.

The witch was closed behind closed doors, Jing Ji could only say goodbye to her through the door, and after a few words, the witch's tears fell down, she didn't dare to say more and could only wish Jingji a smooth journey.

Jing Ji looked at the room reluctantly, followed Chen Daozhen and left after every step.

The sad mood just now turned into panic when he saw the lake water. Jing Ji hid behind Chen Daozhen tremblingly, and said, "I grew up on the mountain."

Ngawang laughed loudly, then said in a moaning voice, "Coward."

Jing Ji pouted his neck and said, "You should practice your sword well, you can't even hold a wooden sword well."

Awang blushed and had a thick neck when he said it, and his eyes were red with anger.

Such a commotion made Jing Ji feel at a loss.

The patriarch sighed: "Okay, stop making trouble, get into the water, and don't worry about Xiao Jing, she'll be out in a while."

Jing Ji approached the lake like a hero.

Awang rushed over suddenly, cried loudly and hugged Jing Ji, crying, "You idiot, you want to come back, wait, hiccup, when I grow up, I, I will take you to play around."

Jing Ji picked him up, looked at him like an adult for the first time, and comforted him: "Don't cry, I will be back, take good care of Madam, and wait until I come back to see you."

Awang was picked up by him, but his face blushed in shame, and he whispered: "What are you doing, let me down quickly."

Jing Ji quickly put him down, and said with a smile, "Then I'm leaving, Boss."

Awang was still red-eyed, leaning against Lin Xiaowan and not speaking.

Lin Xiaowan's eyes were also red, she looked deeply at Chen Daozhen, then at Jing Ji, and then she seemed to understand something, but she knew that no matter whether she believed it or not, these two men would be with her The world is far apart.

Chen Daozhen jumped into the water holding Jingji and swam all the way to the door the patriarch said.

It was a wooden door with a somewhat distorted shape, with rusty red spots on the hinge, which made a muffled creaking sound as the wooden door shook.

Chen Daozhen was stronger than ordinary people. The door that the patriarch said was difficult to open came under his hands, and it was pushed open abruptly.

Chen Daozhen swam ahead, and he had to pay attention to Jingji's situation all the time.

Jing Ji couldn't open his eyes in the water, he held his breath tightly, his whole face wrinkled into a bun, and followed behind only by feeling.He was still wearing the clothes made for him by the witch, and he was reluctant to take them off before going into the water. Fortunately, the patriarch said that the passage was not long, and he could pass through it in one breath, but now the padded jacket was so wet that it sank heavily.

Chen Daozhen was startled, grabbed him and pushed him to the front.

Jing Ji's eyes could barely be opened a crack, he held his breath, and walked quickly along the passage.

Soon, the road in front of them became wider, the water plants swayed, and there were small finger-long fish swimming around, and the light reflected from the water surface was above their heads.

Jing Ji got out of the water quickly, and the sun was shaking in front of his eyes, bright and dazzling.

Chen Daozhen then leaned out of his body, his hair was messy hanging around his ears, and the lake water dripped down along the ends of his hair.

Chen Daozhen's water skills are really good, and he doesn't feel short of breath at the moment, but is very worried about checking the boy's condition.

Jing Ji looked at Chen Daozhen foolishly, the young man's black hair was messed up, his thick eyebrows were furrowed indistinctly, his whole body was dripping, his clothes were messed up in the water, revealing a large piece of his strong chest.

Chen Daozhen touched the boy's face worriedly, and asked, "Are you all right?"

"I have something to do." The young man nodded, suddenly rushed over and bit the young man's lips, hugged him and sank into the water again.

Chen Daozhen breathed a sigh of relief, it really didn't seem like something was wrong with being so energetic.

The two made out in the water without shame or impatience, and only emerged from the water when they couldn't hold their breath.

Chen Daozhen looked at this place, and suddenly laughed, isn't this the first water pool encountered in the forest?Lord Ye Ge sincerely does not deceive me, where there is water, there is indeed a road.

When the two came out of the water, they were all drenched, and the young man's clothes were even sticking to his body, which made Chen Dao really feel pain.

Chen Daozhen lit a fire and put their clothes on the fire to roast.He quickly hugged the boy to warm him up.

Jing Ji couldn't help but laughed: "Brother Chen has practiced his internal strength for so many years, and it's all used here."

Chen Daozhen smiled and said: "This is the right way to use it, just don't get sick."

The two rested for a while, and did not dare to delay, after all, this forest is very strange.

After leaving the forest, I came to Panpo Village again.

Chen Daozhen was surprised to find that the large herb fields had been uprooted, and all of them were planted with messy grains.

Jing Ji touched his head and asked, "Did we stay here last time?"

Chen Daozhen lowered his eyes: "Let's go, people here are not easy to get along with."

Jing Ji didn't want to stay longer after hearing this, and planned to rush to the small town ahead before nightfall while it was still early.

The two of them jogging all the way along the road did not look boring. Chen Daozhen has always been a person who doesn't talk much, but he can talk more when he is with Xiaojing. There are a lot of talents.

Jing Ji couldn't understand a few words, but he also found it interesting, sticking to Chen Daozhen's body like boneless.

When approaching the small town, I heard Jing Ji yelling: "Brother Chen, I'm starving to death, there's no oil in it, I want to eat a lot of meat later."

Chen Daozhen shook his head with a smile, and scolded: "I will act like a baby all day long."

Jing Ji blushed so badly that he shut his mouth tightly and stopped talking.
