Pour the glass

In the early morning, the bright sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves and lightly sprinkles under the peach trees.

"Hiss—" Ziyuan suddenly sat up from the couch, and the severe pain from the wound on her right shoulder made her gasp, before she came back to her senses and took a closer look at the hut, "Where is this?" ?" Subconsciously rubbing the back of her head, Ziyuan glanced down at her clothes, who had changed into a clean white one, and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Not good!"

"Squeak-"

The cabin door was suddenly pushed open.

Zi Yuan widened her eyes vigilantly, staring at who is the person who came in?

"Are you awake?" The old woman walked to Ziyuan's couch with difficulty, carrying the wooden bucket, lowered her head, scooped out a spoonful of well water from the wooden bucket, and fed it to Ziyuan, "Drink it."

Ziyuan took the wooden spoon and didn't understand the situation at all, "Mother-in-law, where is this?"

The old woman took a careful look at Ziyuan, "I haven't asked who you are, you just asked me where this is?"

Ziyuan coughed dryly twice, drank the water in the wooden spoon, and quickly apologized with a smile: "Don't blame the old lady, I just... just..." Ziyuan tried hard to recall everything about last night, as a picture of memory When she and Ah Ling fell into the mountain stream at the same time, Ziyuan asked in shock, "Old woman, can you see a girl who is about my age, but always cold and doesn't like to laugh..."

The old lady glared at Ziyuan, "I have seen it, but you haven't told me who you are yet?"

Ziyuan shook her head and said, "I...my name is Qi Ziyuan," she said, grabbing the corner of the old woman's clothes, "She must be fine, mother-in-law, tell me where she is, okay?"

"Seeing how much you care about her, she's not in vain..." The old woman's voice stopped suddenly, she walked slowly to the closet, found a set of clean clothes from the closet, and put them next to the bed, "Would you like to see She changed her clothes and came with me."

"Okay!" Ziyuan nodded again and again, grabbed the clothes in a hurry, and put them on her body, but she didn't realize that the wound on her right shoulder didn't hurt as much as before.

Seeing her eagerness, the old woman couldn't help asking at the door: "I'm curious, what is your relationship with that girl, and why you care so much about her?"

"Eh..." Ziyuan was suddenly asked such a question, but she didn't know how to answer. The only thing she knew was that if she couldn't protect Ah Ling well, she would fall into the injustice of her sister. If she leaked the news and lost her life, she would never feel at ease for the rest of her life.

Seeing that she couldn't answer for a long time, the old woman sneered, "There's no need to answer."

Ziyuan was startled, and couldn't help asking: "Grandma, were you the one who saved us last night?"

"It's sort of..." The old lady took Ziyuan along the Taolin path to a small stream, and pointed to the woman in the distance who lowered her head and beat her clothes, "There she is."

"Ah..." Ziyuan just wanted to call her, but suddenly held back abruptly, and saw her quietly walking over, looking sideways at the laundry she was washing in her hands, and couldn't help but stay where she was. .

"Snapped!"

Suddenly, the laundry stick in A-Ling's hand hit Ziyuan's leg lightly. A-Ling raised her face and gave her a cold look, "What are you looking at? Take a good rest if you are injured, here What are you doing in a daze?"

"Actually... I can do these myself..." Ziyuan's heart warmed, she squatted down next to Ah Ling, and stretched out her hand, wanting to wash her blood-stained blue dress.

Ah Ling retracted her hand while holding the clothes, and glared at Ziyuan, "I don't want to say the same thing twice!"

"That...my clothes...you changed them, right?" Zi Yuan leaned over her face and asked in a low voice.

Ah Ling's complexion was glowing, "So what? You have it, and I have it too. You didn't suffer, and I didn't take advantage of it."

Ziyuan shook her head and said, "How can I say that I didn't suffer a loss! I haven't seen it before..."

"Do you want to see it?" Ah Ling stared at Ziyuan, with a smile on her mouth, but the smile made people feel inexplicably cold, "The stream is cold, if you are injured, you should rest more, if there is any root cause, Zhexue will die again." I'm going to cry."

"Where is my body so weak?" Ziyuan patted her chest and said unconvinced, her voice softened suddenly, "But you, fell from such a height, did you get hurt?" As she spoke, Ziyuan stretched out her hand, held A Ling's cold hand, pulled A Ling up, looked up and down at A Ling, and finally her eyes fell on the bandaged wound on her left arm.

"Aren't you injured yourself? I'll wash the clothes, so you should go back and rest." Ziyuan said apologetically, then let go of Ah Ling's hand, bent down, and began to beat and wash the clothes by herself .

A-Ling stared blankly at Ziyuan's earnest washing, but felt warmth in her chest, and secretly said: "It turns out that this idiot is so warm when he cares about people..."

"A-Ling, how did you know that there is a bone Gu under the guhong mountain stream?" Ziyuan asked while beating.

Ah Ling said lightly: "Have you forgotten where I am from?"

Ziyuan thought about it carefully, and suddenly said: "It seems that you will teach me more about... Huh..." Halfway through speaking, Ziyuan seemed to think of something, and asked quickly, "Sister gave me sweat towel..."

"Here." A Ling stretched out her hand and patted Ziyuan's right shoulder lightly, "I know you care about this thing, so I just use it to wrap your wound."

Ziyuan smiled reassuringly, "It's fine if you don't lose it."

Ah Ling sighed sadly, and turned around, "You wash the clothes yourself, come back after washing, I'll ask my mother-in-law, is there a way out here?"

"Oh." Zi Yuan responded.

Ah Ling seemed worried, and glanced at Zi Yuan again, before walking towards the old woman.

Hearing that Ah Ling and the old woman were walking away, Ziyuan suddenly stopped to wash the clothes, searched and searched in the inner clothes, and finally found the purple jade pendant.

The gurgling stream vaguely reflected the seriousness on Ziyuan's face at the moment.

"Seventh brother, no matter what, I must figure it out, why are you willing to kill me?"

Holding the purple jade pendant tightly with her fingers, Ziyuan sighed deeply, and that sly smile no longer appeared on her face.

Here, Ah Ling and the old woman walked into the peach forest path, all the way silent, until they reached the small wooden house, the old woman stopped slightly, and glanced solemnly behind the small wooden house.

"Drink the well water from the Immortal Well for a few more days, and when the wounds are almost healed, you can leave here." The old woman gave the order to evict the guests in a deep voice.

Ah Ling asked in confusion, "Have you been living here alone?"

"Come and go, after all, they are just passers-by. What's the difference between one person and two people?" The old woman's voice was slightly hoarse, as if she was trying her best to suppress the resentment in her heart.

"Behind this house..." Ah Ling walked a few steps behind the small wooden house curiously. When two solitary tombs without monuments appeared in his sight, his doubts became more intense, "This..."

"One is my mother..." The old lady introduced, but only one of them was mentioned, and she fell into silence without further words.

A Ling looked at the layout of this Taoyuan with eyes full of doubts, "Is the other one your father?"

"My father...hehe...he's just a passerby..." The old woman's eyes were full of sadness, she raised her head slightly, and her eyes fell on the high stone wall beside the peach forest, "Since he left along the vines on the stone wall, I left here and never came back.”

"Then..." Ah Ling knew that if he continued to ask, he would not be able to ask anything, so he simply didn't say anything.

The old lady turned her face to look at Ah Ling, "I don't know something. It is clear that you begged me to save that girl. Why did you tell me as soon as you woke up, don't say you saved her?"

Ah Ling smiled faintly, "It's not rare."

"Do not care?"

"I don't want her to feel that she owes me anything, and I don't need her to owe me anything, that's all."

"You are interesting, girl." The old lady shook her head and sighed, "The most difficult thing to pay back is indeed the debt of favor. The saddest thing is that the debt of love is paid wrongly, and you end up with nothing."

The light in his eyes sank, and those past events that he would never forget in his heart came back to his heart again.

She still remembered that when their family was in this paradise, it was so peaceful.But Dad always thought about the outside world, so one day, he promised his mother that he would come back after going out to have a look, so he left, and did not come back until his mother was covered with white hair.

One day, this Taoyuan became her world alone, and her mother left, and the tranquility here made her feel extremely scary and lonely.

Until one day, a strange man covered in blood broke into the place, tremblingly took out the treasure in his arms, and begged her, "Help me...I'd like to give you this treasure...as long as you save me..." I……"

Her fate with him started with a transaction, so her fate with him finally ended with a transaction.

At the end of the crevice, there are many herbs that the bone Gu fears the most. In fact, as long as there is a life to rush to the end of the crevice, the bone Gu will not be able to kill this man.

However, she still happily wanted this strange man to owe her a life-saving grace.

So she used the acupuncture method her mother taught her to stop the bleeding and heal the wound of this strange man, just to use this life-saving grace to leave someone to talk to her in the future.

The man's injury gradually recovered, and he also began to love to laugh. His smile was undoubtedly a huge temptation to her who had been lonely for many years.

She felt that the loneliness in this life had finally come to an end, and she gave this man all her tenderness and goodness, in exchange for many nice words that she had never heard before, and a happy smile.

But he didn't want to, one day, the man was tired of the tranquility here and wanted to go out and have a look.

"Will you come back?" She was afraid that she would become the second mother.

The man played with the treasure in his hand, and replied with a smile: "I went out and sold this, and I will come back and take you out to live a better life."

"But I don't want to go out, how about you stay here with me?"

The man frowned, "The outside world is much better than here, you should go out with me and have a look!"

"I..." She walked up to the man, took the treasure from the man's hand, and asked sadly while playing with it, "Then why don't you leave tonight? I'll go with you tomorrow?"

The man stretched out his hand with a smile, and covered her hand playing with the treasure, "Okay, let's go together, find a good buyer, sell this treasure, and you and I will only enjoy happiness for the rest of our lives!"

On the second day, when the man sat up from the couch excitedly, he didn't see her sleeping peacefully next to him on weekdays. He subconsciously touched the treasure that he put under the pillow when he slept last night. It was empty and there was nothing there.

"you……"

She suddenly pushed the door open and entered with a sweet smile, "We can go now."

"Where are the treasures?" The man cared about the treasures after all.

She replied sadly, "I put the treasure in a safe place. If the outside world is not good, we can come back and continue to stay here for a long time."

"You... why should I go out without the treasure?" The man was furious.

"Then it's fine if you don't go out, stay here, just you and me, stay together..." She sat beside the man, snuggled into his arms, faintly expressing her fear, "Here, I only have you , you only have me, if we all go out, you will have many, many people..."

"You crazy woman! Crazy woman!" The man suddenly pushed her down on the side of the couch, "I am a living person, a living person, I escaped from a tomb and stepped into another tomb waiting to die, do you understand? ?”

"tomb?"

"Being with the same person day and night is a terrible and terrible thing. It's like being locked in a huge coffin. No matter how you shout, the person who responds to you will always be the same person. I can't stand such days. Can't take it!"

"But... before you came, I have been living like this..."

"That's why you became a crazy woman!" After the man finished speaking, he suddenly pulled her up, "Give me back the treasure, give it back to me!"

She said with tears in her eyes: "You said that as long as I save you, you will give it to me. You also said that I am more precious than that treasure..."

"You are already my woman, so naturally your things are also mine, and I have the right to decide what to take with me!"

"You must go?"

"I want to die and leave this ghostly place!" In the man's eyes, there was unprecedented indifference and anger, "You will never understand my pain, you will never understand!"

"You'd rather die... than stay?" Her heart was almost numb as if it had been stabbed a thousand times.

The man yelled confidently, "I don't want to stay! I don't want to only face you as a woman every day!"

"If you are willing to stay, the treasure and I are both yours..."

"The treasure is mine!" Before she could finish speaking, the man interrupted her.

"If you must leave, then... leave the life you owe me..."

The golden needle entered the acupoint, which is the fatal acupoint on the back of the head. When the man collapsed into her arms coldly, the tears she held back finally burst, "We drink the water of longevity day and night, and we will live a long life. You and I stay together day and night Why can't you keep it safe? Why do you want to go out and have a look like Dad? Why do you treat me so cruelly, why do you force me...to kill you..."

When all the crying came to an end, when all the love turned into hatred, there was only one last sentence left in her heart, "This time, you will never leave me again..."
