The rivers and lakes are full of vests

This is the tenth day that Fu Peibai and Shiqi came to Xichuan Valley. Most of Shiqi’s cold poison has been cured, and his expression is much rosier than before. She asked Fu Peibai about the rush of inner breath. Under the treatment of the senior medical sage who has rejuvenated her body, she is also fine.

Her smile was so bright and sincere that Shi Qi had no doubts.

Early in the morning, Fu Peibai got up and called Shiqi up too. After breakfast, she mysteriously led Shiqi into the depths of the valley.

At the end of March at this time, the snow has faded, everything is competing for spring, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, flowing water is gurgling, and the scenery is quite good.

The two walked aimlessly along the creek, chatting a few words from time to time, quite leisurely.

Tired from walking, he casually found a lawn to sit down. Shi Qi asked Fu Peibai with a smile, "Why did you bring me here?"

Fu Peibai lay down directly, pillowed on the soft and tender green grass, looked at the blue sky and white clouds, and sighed comfortably, "I just want to take you out for a walk to get some air."

Shi Qi imitated her and lay down, not caring that the white clothes on her body were stained with grass clippings and mud.

The two watched the white clouds flow slowly in the sky, and felt that time was slowing down at this moment.

Before he knew it, Fu Peibai fell asleep. When he woke up, he felt itchy on his face. When he opened his eyes, he saw Shi Qi's bright smiling eyes. Looking again, it turned out that the other party was scratching his face with a piece of grass.

"You took me out to play, why did you fall asleep?"

Fu Peibai smiled embarrassedly, wrapped his hands around Shiqi's slender waist, and pulled the person towards him, Shiqi fell on her body unawares.

Fu Peibai laughed muffledly, and the vibration in her chest spread to Shiqi's body. After laughing enough, she began to rub her hands on Shiqi's waist, and muttered: "You are too thin."

She didn't have any wrong intentions to do this, but Shi Qi's body became weaker and weaker, and finally her head completely fell on her body.

"itch."

The light and fluttering word made Fu Peibai realize how ambiguous her actions were. She withdrew her hand and behaved perfectly.

The two lay quietly like this. Fu Peibai looked at the sun, and it was almost noon. Then he turned over, took off his shoes and socks neatly, jumped into the clear stream, and said with a smile, "I'll catch shrimps for you." you eat."

Shi Qi stared at the shining smile under the sun, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"it is good."

Half an hour later, smoke was rising from the creek. Fu Peibai took out the fine salt wrapped in oil paper from his bosom and sprinkled it on the skewered fish. The skin of the fish gradually turned brown and crispy, exuding a delicious fragrance.

The river prawns were not caught, only two fish were caught. Fortunately, Shi Qi had already broken the habit of not eating fish.

After the fish was grilled, Fu Peibai naturally handed it to Shiqi first, and said: "Be careful of burning."

Seventeen gladly took it, and tore off a little bit of the fish skin with small mouthfuls, and the smell of fresh and tender meat immediately poured into her nostrils. She took a bite of the fishbone-free part, and praised without hesitation, "It's delicious."

Fu Peibai smiled so much that he showed his white teeth, and happily ate his own.

After the two finished eating the fish, they stepped on the fire and continued to lie down to rest. The breeze was mixed with the fragrance of flowers, which was very pleasant.

After resting for a while, Fu Peibai took Shiqi into the forest, laughing and playing around from time to time along the way, and there was a lot of laughter.

"Shh."

Walking under a tree, Fu Peibai raised his index finger to his lips, and Shi Qi indicated with his eyes what was wrong.

Fu Peibai pointed to a towering tree beside him and whispered: "There is a warbler's nest on it, I will climb up and dig out a bird's egg for you and come down to have a look."

Shi Qi hooked her fingers and asked, "Did you play fish and birds like this when you were young?"

"Well, when I was young, my father often took me into the mountains to hunt, and occasionally I would go to the mountains to play with my friends from the village."

"Okay, don't go climbing trees, how old are you?"

Fu Peibai rubbed the back of her head, but did not insist on going up the tree. The two walked for a while, and she pointed to a tree branch in front of her excitedly, "Seventeen, look, beehive, do you want honey?"

Shi Qi laughed at her again, "Do you have to climb a tree today?"

"No, I just thought you must have never seen these when you were a child, and I want to show you some novelty things."

Shi Qi scratched her palm and said, "I understand, but I don't want you to work too hard, just accompany me like this, and I will be very happy when we take a walk together."

A warm current flowed through Fu Peibai's heart, "Okay."

The two then walked out of the forest and came to a sea of ​​flowers. This sea of ​​flowers was composed of silver-white flowers, which sparkled under the sunlight. Feeling novelty, Fu Peibai stepped into the sea of ​​flowers and asked, "What kind of flower is this?" , How come I have never seen it before, Seventeen, do you know him?"

Seventeen caressed the delicate petals and said: "This kind of flower is called Mingluohua. As the name suggests, it blooms today and will wither tomorrow. It is common in poetry, and usually implies the fleeting beauty after a short possession."

Hearing this, Fu Peibai thought of something, her excited expression faded, she held Shiqi's hand tightly and said, "I don't like this kind of flower, let's go."

Shi Qi didn't say anything, and followed Fu Peibai to leave the sea of ​​flowers, not far from the sea of ​​flowers was a piece of green grass.

Seeing this emerald green area, Fu Peibai couldn't help wanting to roll over, but Shi Qi was here, afraid of losing his composure, so he could only hold back his thoughts and sit cross-legged with Shi Qi.

Then he chattered about some interesting childhood stories to Shi Qi, Shi Qi listened quietly and responded from time to time.

The time of the day passed slowly, the sky was getting darker, and the sky was filled with stars competing to appear, and the night sky was full of stars shining brightly.

Fu Peibai was lying on the grass, with one hand resting behind his head, and the other pointing to the brightest star to introduce to Seventeen, and then pointing to the other one.

After Fu Peibai introduced Xingxiu, he turned his head to look at Shiqi, and happened to meet Shiqi's eyes.

It turned out that Shi Qi had been lying on his side, with his hands clasped under his cheeks, just staring at her for an unknown amount of time.

Fu Peibai also turned sideways, facing Shiqi in the same posture, and asked with a smile, "What are you thinking?"

Seventeen gently opened his mouth: "When you were talking about the stars in the sky just now, I was thinking that this vast sea of ​​stars does not belong to anyone, and the world can only look up to its light forever, but I have my own. Stars." Seventeen leaned closer to Fu Peibai, the tip of his nose touched his nose, and said softly, "Apei, you are my unique star."

The valley is breezy and the moon is bright, insects and birds are singing, Fu Peibai can clearly hear the heavy heartbeat in her chest, she presses against Shiqi's forehead, her eyes are red, and softly said in a hoarse voice: "You are also me!" , the unique moon."

The stars are always with the moon.

The bright moon always follows the stars.

......

The next day, when the sun was rising, a young man with an ordinary face and a woman covered with a light veil stood at the entrance of the Xichuan Valley.

Standing opposite them was an old man with a gray beard and an elegant and gentle middle-aged man.

The four said parting words among their words.

Gu Chuan's eyes were filled with tears, and his eyes were tightly locked on Shi Qi's body, "You must take care of yourself, understand?"

Seventeen politely responded.

"The big man is still crying." Mo Wen cast a disgusted glance at Gu Chuan.

Fu Peibai cupped his fists and said, "Mr. Gu, Senior Mo, take care."

Mo Wen nodded, and pointedly said: "Remember to take the medicine prescribed for you."

"it is good."

After all, Fu Peibai took Shiqi by his hand and left towards the east where the sun was shining.

Mo Wen stared at their figures gradually disappearing at the end of the ground, with deep eyes, and said quietly: "Recalling the past, the world has experienced ups and downs, but looking at the present, there are many winds and rains. Don't ask about the way forward, don't ask about the way forward."

Three hours later, Fu Peibai and Shiqi came to the nearest small town outside the valley. It was noon, and they found a restaurant for dinner and inquired about news.

It has been almost half a month since they fell off the cliff, and in this half month, Lu Wencheng has brought Shi Qinghan back to the Tianji Sect, and announced to Wulin that the Sky Conference will be held on April [-]th, and he will prove his innocence at the conference in due course , and the execution of the demon girl.

This incident was widely spread among the people, and even the shopkeepers who were not very familiar with Jianghu knew about it, and they discussed it from time to time in their spare time.

Fu Peibai listened to the conversation of the servants, sat upright, and picked up a chopsticks dish for Shiqi. Now she had put on the ordinary mask of a middle-aged man, and Shiqi kept his original appearance, but Covered with a light veil, it couldn't hide the extraordinary temperament around them. The two of them looked like a rich lady and a servant.

"Eat more."

Fu Peibai comforted him, and put another chopsticks of vegetables into the seventeen bowls.

Seventeen said angrily, "I really can't eat anymore."

"That's all, don't pinch."

Shi Qi didn't make a sound, but his eyes had already retreated, and he finished the last bit of food in the bowl gracefully.

Fu Peibai smiled contentedly, and poured hot tea for Shi Qi.

"It's more than [-] miles away from Jinyun Mountain. If we hurry up, it will take five days. We have to make plans after returning to the mountain. We have to hurry up."

Shi Qi looked a little serious, and responded in a low voice.

After the two of them had lunch, they rented two horses from the horseman in the town and galloped all the way to Jinyun Mountain in the southeast direction.

Five days later, in the first ten days of April, Jinyun Mountain was full of verdant green and spring was full, but the atmosphere in Tianji Sect was extremely solemn, and the reason was nothing more than everything that happened in recent days.

On the Chaoquan Peak, the laughter of the past was lost. Everyone in the backyard was immersed in their work, and their expressions were somewhat heavy. This heavyness became deeper when a low-pitched man shouted from the bamboo forest path.

"Come on, come on!"

The man's voice quickly attracted everyone in the backyard, Meng Yan was not there, the person in charge was an old man, the oldest in the backyard, everyone called him Grandpa.

Grandpa walked over tremblingly with a cane on his back. When he saw the unconscious woman on the strange man's back, his cloudy eyes instantly became clear, and his beard trembled wildly from the rough air under his nose.

"Peak - peak - peak!"

"Peak Master!" The others recognized it immediately, and completed what Grandpa was so excited that he didn't finish.

Grandpa blushed, and slammed his crutches, "Yes, it's the peak master, what are you all doing blankly, why don't you send the peak master back to the house quickly, Ruo Ling, hurry up, follow along, look at the peak What's wrong with the master, ah, and, hurry up and inform the suzerain, the peak master is back, move up, hurry up."

Although the grandfather is old, his head is still clear, and he ordered in an orderly manner.

Everyone took orders and got busy.

The middle-aged man was panting, and his eyes were fixed on the back of the woman in white who was being carried to Zhulin Xiaozhu.

Grandpa stepped forward and held his hand, "Young man, thank you, thank you for saving our peak master."

The man withdrew his hand and smiled honestly, "You're welcome, old man. I'm just a biscuit seller in Qi'an Town. I came out of the stall before dawn this morning. I saw a figure lying on the street. I walked in and took a look. It was a girl, pale and pale, but it frightened me.

I was about to take her to see a doctor in the clinic. She said the word "Tianji" in a daze. Carried her up the mountain. "

Grandpa nodded, his gratitude was beyond words, "Thank you so much, young man, you saved our peak master, our suzerain's daughter, you wait here, the suzerain will come later, the suzerain will definitely thank you personally of."

The man quickly said: "No need, it's nothing more than a little effort, but old man, I'm curious about one thing. Doesn't anyone in your majestic martial arts sect set up guards at the mountain gate and each peak entrance? I just came up with your peak master on my back. But no one was seen."

"Young man, you don't know. Our Tianji Sect has been in trouble recently. Not long ago, the suzerain captured the demon girl alive and brought her back to the mountain. She is imprisoned in the dungeon of the sky. All the guards have been sent to the sky to guard the witch."

The man suddenly realized, "That's it."

"Young man, just wait here, the suzerain will be here soon."

The man took a step back and said: "No need, old man, it's nothing to worry about. I still have something to do, so I'll go back first."

"Hey, this..." Grandpa waved his cane, before he finished speaking, the tall and thin man was already heading down the mountain.

The mountains were lush and green, and the man relaxed when he reached the long steps where there was no one else. He unconsciously scratched the joint of his jaw.

Sure enough, he is still not used to wearing this mask, Fu Peibai sighed from the bottom of his heart, and then left Jinyun Mountain.

Not long after she left Tianjizong, a large group of people ushered in the deserted Chaoquan Peak, and the leader was Lu Wencheng.

With an anxious expression on his face, he rushed straight to Zhulin Xiaozhu, and the guards on both sides had to trot to keep up with him.

"Yan Ran, Ran'er!" He pushed open the door and strode into the room. When he saw the woman sleeping peacefully on the couch for the first time, his eyes turned red.

Afu and Yun Ruoling stood on the left and right of the bed, and they lowered their heads knowingly when they saw Lu Wencheng like this.

Lu Wencheng came to the couch in a few steps, wiped the corners of his eyes calmly, and said in a deep voice, "Is there something serious about Yan Ran's health?"

Yun Ruoling replied: "It's not a serious problem, but I don't know what happened to the peak master during his disappearance. Right now, she has no internal energy in her body."

Lu Wencheng said angrily: "No internal strength?!"

Yun Ruoling frowned and hummed.

The room fell into a brief silence. Lu Wencheng's face was dark and unclear, and he gritted his teeth after a while and said, "For martial arts practitioners, there is nothing more painful than losing martial arts. They... how dare they Treating Yan Ran like this is an unforgivable crime!"

"Wu Zhong!"

"Subordinates are here."

"Notify all the sects in the rivers and lakes that the Sky Conference will be held seven days in advance. At the conference, I will personally kill the demon girl, and then I will notify the martial arts halls in various places and the Tianji disciples sent down the mountain. I will try my best to capture Fu Peibai, the remnant of the demon sect, and the remaining demon sects. Messenger."

"Yes!"

Wu Zhong quickly left the room after taking the order.

Lu Wencheng sat down by the couch, stared at the pale Lu Yanran with pity on his face, and after a short silence, he asked, "By the way, how did Yanran come back?"

Afu told Lu Wencheng exactly what happened not long ago that the middle-aged man in Qi'an Town had returned to the peak master.

Lu Wencheng squinted his eyes, and repeated Afu's last words in a low voice, "He has already left."

His expression regained his composure, and he couldn't see any emotion. After a while, he regretted saying: "I should thank Yan Ran's lifesaver personally, but I don't need to force him after he has left. When Yan Ran wakes up in the future, It’s not too late to pay a visit to thank you again.”

All the people in the house agreed.

After sitting for a while, Lu Wencheng got up and was about to leave. When he turned around, he told Afu, "Qingwan should also know about her elder sister's safe return. If she comes later, you will think that Yan Ran has not yet awakened." For sending her away, that girl is very noisy, don't let her disturb Yan Ran's rest."

"Yes."
