The two ran to the cliff. It was dark at night, and Xiu Yuan heard the sound of rushing water. Looking down, there were white flowers.It turns out that under this mountain peak is a waterfall more than ten feet wide, and the flowing water is fast and rushing, which is daunting.But the pack of wild wolves in the back were chasing after him. He and Ping An hadn't eaten for a day, and now they were hungry, thirsty, and exhausted. As he got closer, he stretched his teeth and claws, and there was no other way to repair the edge. He had to grab Ping An's hand and shouted loudly amidst the sound of running water: "Follow me and jump down!"

The wild wolf bared its fangs in the dark night, its eyes were all green, and every pair of eyes was fixed on them. As soon as Xiu Yuan finished speaking, he and Pingan jumped into the waterfall.

Not long ago, he was also forced to the cliff and had nowhere to go, but a month later, similar things happened to him again.Xiu Yuan didn't know if he could be as safe and sound as last time. He felt drenched all over his body. Although the impact of the waterfall was strong, fortunately he grabbed a vine on the edge of the cliff, and his hand was dripping with blood, but he blocked the powerful With the momentum, he loosened the vines little by little, Ping An hugged his waist with one hand, and touched the grassy plant with the other.

"Hold me, just be careful if your hands bleed." Xiuyuan found that although the waterfall was wide, it was not very high. After sliding down about two or three feet, there was a platform not far from them. High above the ankles, the gurgling stream is beautiful and quiet, which is very disproportionate to the sound of rumbling water in the ear.

Xiu Yuan asked Ping An to hug him tightly, and then slid down a foot, the vine cut his right hand so numb, and a person was wrapped around his body, Xiu Yuan was overwhelmed, and the overflowing blood spilled directly on the front of his clothes.

Ping An saw it, showing a look of surprise and pain, but he couldn't speak, hugged Xiu Yuan and widened his eyes, but fell silent.

Xiu Yuan comforted him:

"It's fine when you're on flat ground. It's common for us martial arts practitioners to suffer some skin trauma."

As soon as the words fell, he performed lightness kung fu, and the last half of the distance fell slowly with peace.

Both of them were barefoot at this time, stepping in the clear and cold water, their whole bodies were agitated, their tiredness disappeared, and they were much more awake.Ping An is walking ahead under the moonlit night. Although this young man is not as tall as Xiu Yuan, he has a faint sense of being tall and tall. His whole body is covered by the cold light of the cold moon.Xiu Yuan raised his head a little, and saw his back, with a graceful figure, recalling the scene of killing the wolf, the demeanor and vigilance at this age are really rare, and he is completely different from when he first saw him from the small town .

The two walked for a while, Ping An seemed to be thinking about it for a long time, turned around, held Xiu Yuan's right hand, and did not speak.

Xiu Yuan understood what he meant, just smiled, shook his head and said:

"This kind of minor injury will heal quickly."

Under the reflection of the water and the moon, everything around was clearly visible, Ping An looked at Xiu Yuan's face, and then at his hand, the cut wound was deep and long, stretching from the tiger's mouth to the little finger, the skin and flesh were separated.

Xiu Yuan retracted his hand uncomfortably, not letting Ping An look at it again.

"There seems to be no way ahead, let's go and have a look."

Ping An withdrew his gaze and looked forward. Sure enough, he had reached the end, and further ahead was another cliff.

Although they escaped unharmed, there is a rapid waterfall on the upper right of the platform, and a cliff on the lower left. Could it be that they can only wait for death and go back, under the cover of the water, there is obviously a hole in the platform !

At the same time, Ping An also found out. He touched Xiu Yuan's fingertips, and the two looked at each other. There was no other way out, and they could only go in to find out.

The further you go in, the deeper the water gets, and in just a few steps, you reach your calf, repairing the edge to stop Ping An, and whispered: "If there is a pool of water inside, what should we do?"

Ping An took a deep look inside, and touched Xiu Yuan's bald head again. This time, his eyes turned soft and firm, which meant he might as well give it a try.

Xiu Yuan was teased by a young man like this, as if he was much younger than him and had to rely on him to take care of him, but he was not angry at all.He regarded Ping An as his younger brother, and felt very kind, so he smiled at him, and the two continued walking one after the other.

After walking to the end, the icy water was up to the knees, and the entrance of the cave was close to the eyes, but it was only as high as a person. Xiuyuan looked inside, and there were stone steps on it, and he didn't know where it led.However, because the stone steps are high, it is no longer soaked in water. It is good to walk across here and climb up the stone steps.

When Xiuyuan watched carefully, Ping An was also secretly contrasting.Xiu Yuan was still hesitating, Ping An took a look around and saw that there was no way out, so he took a step, walked through the cave, stood on the first step, and stretched out his hand to Xiu Yuan.

In fact, Xiuyuan also has this intention. It may be better to have another encounter after entering the cave, rather than having nothing to do outside.

He held Ping An's hand and was pulled into the cave by him.

The two stood together on the stone steps, they didn't know if they touched the mechanism or something, suddenly there was a loud noise from the cave, Xiu Yuan glanced at the young man beside him, if there was any change, there was still time for them to go out now.

The boy looked calm, turned around and walked up the stone steps.

The huge boulder fell under the weight of a thousand catties, and it took almost an instant. Xiuyuan saw that Ping An had already gone up, and just turned around to look at the situation at the entrance of the cave, only to hear the huge boulder hitting the ground next to his ear. His hands touched the surrounding stone walls, and he was shocked. numb.As far as the eye can see, the huge rock has firmly blocked the entrance of the cave, and there is no way out at all.

It is impossible to go out now, so I can only bite the bullet and move forward.

Ping An stopped and walked, as if he was waiting to repair the relationship. The stone steps were only dozens of floors, and there was a cave on the top. After this section of the upward road, there was another platform, which was located on the half-open mountainside. You can see the stars and the moon when you look up. The air is fresher than before, and the sound of the rushing waterfall cannot be heard, and everything is quiet and comfortable.

"It turns out that the mechanism that blocked the stone gate is a way to use it when we encounter a strong enemy. I don't know how we touched the mechanism. But it doesn't matter, this place is open, and it is the same for us to find a way to go up from here."

Both of them were tired, and Ping An immediately sat down and leaned against the stone wall of the platform. The night wind was blowing here, and the bright moon was boundless. Looking down, you can see the cliffs. However, the scenery is so moving that people temporarily put aside the danger of their lives and rest in peace. .

Xiu Yuan couldn't bear to disturb him, so he had to sit down with Ping An and let out a long sigh.

The night view of this mountain stream is more magnificent than any other place. Xiuyuan looked at the distant mountain peaks looming in the clouds and mist, and couldn't help but be fascinated.

Ping An rested on his shoulder, and fell asleep peacefully.

The two woke up before dawn, the sky had already dawned slightly, Xiu Yuan was lying on his side, Ping An was looking at him silently with his head on his hands.

Xiu Yuan didn't know where he was for a moment, he was at a loss for a moment, then regained his clarity and sat up.

This time, Ping An not only touched his head, but also touched his stomach.

When Xiu Yuan was sleeping, this place did call out several times, but he didn't realize it, and asked Ping An: "Are you hungry?"

Ping An shook his head with a smile, Xiu Yuan told the truth:

"I'm really hungry." After finishing speaking, he stared ahead:

"Look, there seem to be stone steps ahead, which match the place we came up from. Maybe there is a way out."

Ping'an had discovered it a long time ago, but he didn't think there was any way out there. Could it be possible to open mountain roads and build tunnels here, especially along the waterfalls, is it just for the convenience of people?I'm afraid that if you want to go out, you have to start from the current half-open platform.

However, he still got up quickly, and together with Xiu Yuan, he continued to move forward.

As soon as the two of them entered, they started a fire, and the cave was suddenly brightly lit.This time, the stone steps only had about ten floors. After going up, they were firmly blocked by a big stone gate. They had to find a way to get in, or go back the same way.

In the open space in front of Shimen, there are a game of broken chess, a Guqin, and a jug of good wine.

Xiu Yuan stepped forward and reached out to touch the wine, the wine was still warm, so he couldn't help being shocked.

Look at this place, no one has been here for more than ten years, the piano and chess are covered with cobwebs and covered with a thousand layers of dust, how can this wine be hot.

But Ping An just laughed it off, picked up the jug of wine, lowered his eyes, put the mouth of the jug to his nose and smelled it, looked calm, raised his head and poured it down.The wine was like bead threads, continuously sprinkled on his neck, and he didn't care about it.After drinking half of the pot, he handed it to Xiu Yuan. Although he is a monk, he has long forgotten the rules and regulations when walking in the rivers and lakes. drank.

It's strange to say that after drinking that wine, Xiu Yuan felt warm all over his body, and he didn't feel hungry in his stomach. After a little exercise, he actually had the illusion that his internal strength increased greatly.

He glanced at Ping An, he looked innocent and young, and touched Xiu Yuan's head affectionately, the extraordinary wisdom at a certain moment was almost in Xiu Yuan's own imagination.

However, he now concluded that this young man must not be a child of an ordinary family. After thinking about it for a while, Xiu Yuan felt that it was very likely that he was a young disciple of some sect, or a descendant of a famous family. , to where it is today.

Xiu Yuan calmed down, but saw that Ping An was already sitting on the ground, silently studying the chess game.

Xiu Yuan has been carefully taught by his master since he was a child. Although he is not proficient in chess, he also knows a little bit. start.

It's not like a game of chess at all, it's like someone has flipped it wantonly, the chess pieces are scattered and lifeless.

Xiu Yuan even found out that after staring at the chessboard for a long time, he became dizzy and almost fell to the ground with one step, but fortunately he was supported safely.He stretched out his hand to touch the repaired eyelids, told him to close his eyes, and drove him aside to rest.

Seeing that Xiu Yuan really closed his eyes, Ping An sat down again, and this time he quickly moved a pawn.

Between black and white, within a square inch, if there seems to be no end in this game, I still hold my breath, wanting to break it.Ping An thought for a moment, and conveniently settled on his position.

Xiu Yuan secretly raised his eyes to see, it was still a dead end, even more messy than before, he couldn't see the clues, he guessed that the peace of mind of the young man had come up, if he wanted to play, just let him play, and he didn't care about him, he just cared about himself Close your eyes and rest.
