The next day, Yang Guo and Guo Fu explained what happened yesterday to Wang Jian. Wang Jian frowned and sighed, "This has never happened in the barbarian land in recent years. Why did you two meet? I heard that in the Tujia Village of Wulong It seems that there is a strange woman who is well versed in this technique, folklore is all about it, but no one has ever seen her."

"General Wang, since there are rumors, it is worthwhile. We will leave tomorrow."

"Hero Yang and his wife are careful on the road. They pestered me to send someone to the two's residence. If you need anything, just let me know."

Yang Guo said goodbye to Wang Jian, and took Guo Fu to the medicine shop in the city.

Guo Fu took the medicine according to the prescription, realgar, Jiacao, wheat bran, raw peach powder, Phellodendron, Artemisia annua, Forsythia, Sophora japonica, Mint, Bupleurum, Chuanxiong, Shenghuang and more than 20 traditional Chinese medicines.After leaving the pharmacy, they bought some garlic from the market, and the two returned to the station.

"Fu'er, are these useful?" Yang Guo watched her examine the medicine carefully, curious and uneasy.

"I don't know. I just dipped the realgar in liquor and wiped it. This method is useless." Guo Fu curled her lips. "Yesterday, my mother-in-law used the method of patting flowers. You just need to pat them on the palm of the other party." She sat down on the chair discouraged, "I prepared a few pills for you. The garlic is for you. If you chew garlic Gu, you won't be able to get on your body. Brother Yang, if you go to my mother-in-law's house, you can follow me to do what I do. Do not move."

"Fu'er, there is no prescription for dispelling Gu in the medical books?"

"The key is that I don't know what kind of Gu I got, insects, snakes, plants? And the Gu can't be solved casually, whoever releases it will solve it." She got up and put away the prepared pills on the table, and came to Yang Guo, " Brother, don't worry. You won't die."

"Let's leave now!" Yang Guo looked distressed, "One day later you will suffer one more day."

Guo Fu took his hand, "Don't worry, at this moment, the word "Southeast" is carved under the temples, which indicates the direction." She raised her eyes and looked at him, "Since he has his eyes on me, naturally he won't kill me."

In the middle of the night, there were still rumors of enduring pain in the room, Guo Fu locked herself in the room, she didn't want Yang Guo to see her in pain, let alone let him see her in distress.

Yang Guo was pacing anxiously outside the door, just now Fumei sent him away to make tea, and when she came back she locked herself inside the house.The pain and sorrow of the two phases are overwhelming, and the heart is burning with grief.

"Fu'er, open the door." He patted on the door impatiently, resisting the urge to kick it open with his feet.

Finally the house was silent, Guo Fu lay limp on the bed, sweat mixed with tears drenched her clothes, she heard Yang Guo's anxious voice outside, got up, put on her coat and opened the door.

"Fu'er, why didn't you let me in, you'll get hurt!" Yang Guo stepped into the room, grabbed her hand and gently lifted up his sleeves, only to see bloodstains and bruises everywhere on the snowy muscles and jade bones. "You, why are you bothering, you know that I won't do anything beyond the rules."

"It's okay." Guo Fu sat on the bed tiredly, bruises looming on her untied neckline, "I don't want you to see me like that, it's so embarrassing." She lowered her head and twisted the corner of her clothes, feeling ashamed and not knowing what to do.

"There's nothing embarrassing about being poisoned. Look at the scars all over your body." He hugged her distressedly. Fumei, who was proud since she was a child, has never suffered such humiliation and grievance.

Guo Fu is much calmer at this time, the matter is already like this, there is nothing to do if she is sad and wronged, she can only work hard in a good direction. "We will start early tomorrow morning, about 200 miles away. There are many mountains here, I wonder if we can find them tomorrow night."

"Fu'er, show me the butterfly on your temples."

Guo Fu took it off her head and handed it to him, Yang Guo took it over and carefully examined the two small characters on it, the handwriting was not shallow and not deep just right, he wondered, could it be that it was carved with nails, if so, the inner strength is pure Thick, has reached the state of perfection. "Fu'er, this person is not simple, but his internal strength is already at its peak."

"Hey, that's strange. I don't think the two characters are engraved deeply."

"The wonderful thing is that it's neither deep nor shallow, just right. The temples are slender and soft, and you can see that every stroke of this character is consistent in depth, as smooth as writing with a pen. It shows that this person's skill can be retracted and released freely." Yang Guo pointed to the words on it and showed it to Guo Fu, carefully analyzing it for her.

The future is unpredictable and bad luck is uncertain.The two kept their thoughts to themselves, and neither of them wanted to speak out, for fear that the other would be worried.Guo Fu was finally exhausted and fell asleep in Yang Guo's arms.

At the beginning of the ordeal, he was already in a state of disarray. When he was alone, he never knew what fear was.He looked down at the person in his arms, Fu Rong was unable to hold back tears, and the white jade was wrapped in plain brocade.All kinds of pity welled up in my heart.He gently put her on the bed, pulled off the quilt and covered her, and stood in front of the bed, staring at her in a daze, worried, her face was haggard from running around for several days, and the heart-eating poison even ruined her mind.Thinking that I have a peerless martial arts but can't protect her, I feel unbearable pain.

At the beginning of dawn the next day, the morning light was faint, and the two of them packed their bags and hurried on the road.Guo Fu tilted her head and saw Yang Guo's eyebrows were slightly frowned, and his phoenix eyes were worried, knowing that he was worried about her.She called softly, "Brother Yang, brother Yang?"

When Yang Guo heard Guo Fu calling him, he turned his head and smiled, "Why did you change your name today?"

"I called you that way when I was a child, remember?" She turned her head slightly, her eyes were full of blue waves, her dimples were full of tenderness, and a warm smile bloomed on the corner of her lips, her demeanor was elegant and charming.

Her warm and playful expression melted Yang Guo's heart in an instant, and he looked back with a smile, "Yes, I remember. A willful and naughty little girl."

"The little nigger back then was poisoned, but was he ever afraid?"

"Fu'er, now it's time for you to take the trouble to enlighten me and understand your intentions. I won't do this again."

"Brother Yang, do you know "Morning Songs"? 'The wind blows the sky and the waves start, just smile and don't worry. If you look at it closely for two days and three days away, you will rest when your strength is exhausted.' Steady heart, patience, put Good rudder. Knowing that Brother Yang takes pity on me, you will be happy if I have no worries, but the opposite is also true." She spoke softly, with indescribable tenderness.

Hearing how open-minded and cheerful she was, Yang Guo shook off his worries and smiled at her, "Fu'er, you are a beautiful piece of jade."

In the afternoon, the two went to the Wulong (now Wulong) area of ​​Wuling Mountain. This place has been known as the "Yuqian Gate Screen" since ancient times. They rested on horses. Four volts. Like being in a fairyland, everything around seems to stop, only the clouds and mist in the mountains and the sparkling streams flow. Overlooking the mist and mist, buildings on stilts are built with the mountains, and the angled cornices are faintly visible in the mist.

"Fu'er, are you tired? It's windy and foggy here, are you okay?" Yang Guo held her hand, his fingers were slightly cold, "Is it cold? It's much colder in this mountain than outside."

Guo Fu shook her head and looked up at the sky, "The sky is dark and the climate here is changeable, so it's not suitable to stay for a long time. The mountains ahead are steep and dangerous, and horses are difficult to ride."

"Looking from the hillside here, there seems to be a village built against the mountain over there. I don't know if it is Wuximan or Tuman."

"Brother Yang, let's go." Guo Fu took Yang Guo's hand and walked along the mountain road. Because of the abundant rain all year round, the mountain road was slippery and the road became more dangerous.

Yang Guo carefully protected Guo Fu, the two of them walked to the mountainside, suddenly there was continuous rain in the sky, and soon the potholed mountain road was full of water, he wrapped his left hand around Guo Fu's back, wrapped his right sleeve around the crook of her leg, He picked her up and ran forward.

Guo Fu let out a low cry, and subconsciously reached out to grab his shoulder and neck, "I'll just walk by myself, first find a place to shelter from the rain."

Miasma rain and smog made the surroundings darken, Yang Guo was worried, if they couldn't find a foothold, the two of them would be trapped in the mountains and lose their way.

"Brother Yang, there seems to be a hole there, let's go and have a look."

He looked in the direction of Guo Fu's finger, and there was indeed a cave in front of him. Under the thousand-foot cliff, the cave opened like the mouth of a beast.He tapped his toes lightly, like a wild goose piercing through the forest, and fell to the entrance of the cave in an instant.Gently put Guo Fu down, protect her by her side, and look inside, the cave is high and low, with twists and turns.The two did not dare to go deep, and only found a dry place at the entrance of the cave to sit down and rest.

"Just now I can go by myself, why do you need to hug me?" Guo Fu's cheeks were dizzy, and she took out a silk handkerchief to wipe away the slight sweat on Yang Guo's forehead.

"I'm afraid your shoes will get wet. How good is this barren mountain? You'll be stuck here tonight."

"Fortunately, there is a place to rest, it's better than getting lost in the forest."

The two of them had a simple meal, the darkness surrounded them quietly, the drizzle swayed, and the wind blew and rustled the dead branches.Guo Fu felt dry and hot all over her body, but today was different from the previous two days, she was surprised by the vague feeling.

"Fu'er, are you feeling unwell again?" Yang Guo noticed that she had a strange look on her face, and knew that this daily calamity had happened again.

"Well, today is different from before, I, I can control it." She whispered softly, subconsciously controlling herself not to lean on Yang Guo.

"Why are you hiding from me? Anyway, I'm still awake." He pulled her into his arms, hugged her to keep her from moving, "Fu'er, I don't want you to be hurt a little bit, so trust me, huh?"

Guo Fu nodded with misty eyes, "I know, it seems to feel different today, not so strong."

With a wry smile on the corner of her lips, Yang Guo knew that today's calamity was over.

"That mother-in-law is so powerful, she wants me to use my own consciousness to defeat this Gu." Guo Fu pondered over the details of the three days of poisoning, the burning force was especially severe on the first day, and violently acted on the second day, and violently on the second day Although there was a fire in the first two days in the third day, it was gradually controlled by consciousness.

"You mean, she's testing you?" Yang Guo also felt that today's attack was not as violent as it was two days ago, he was terrified when he thought about it carefully, this person is unpredictable, and the knowledge of witchcraft makes people even more frightened.

"Well, it's possible."

The two fell into deep thought, when suddenly a faint singing sound came from the cave, with a voiceless voice.

"Brother Yang, listen, there seems to be someone in the cave."

Yang Guo didn't answer, doubts came from the barren mountain cave, "I'll go in and see, you wait for me here." He got up and walked into the cave.

Guo Fu didn't say anything, but followed behind him holding his sleeve.

"You wait here, don't go in!" Yang Guo looked back at her and stopped her from following.

"I do not!"

Seeing her pouting and stubborn face, Yang Guo nodded Qiong's nose, shook his head and smiled wryly, "You are still so willful. Follow me." He held her hand tightly and continued to go deep into the cave.

Guo Fu lit the torch, and saw the cliffs in the cave, the stalagmites towering, and the water droplets dripping from the cave roof, making a clear and agile sound, like a golden jade chime, and the sound of dingdong is clear and pleasant.

Walking hundreds of steps forward, the cave gradually warmed up, as warm as spring.Yang Guo suddenly stopped, and a girl was tied with a rope to the milk stone of the cliff in front of her, and the song was sung by this girl.

"Brother Yang, go and save her." Guo Fu pushed Yang Guo, beckoning him to save her.

Yang Guo didn't move, he didn't know that the girl Weihe was locked in this deserted cave all by herself, he didn't dare to act rashly. "Fu'er, I don't know why she is trapped here, let me ask her."

"Girl, we passed by here to avoid the rain, please forgive me if it disturbs you. I wonder who trapped you?" Yang Guo stepped forward and asked loudly.

The girl on the cliff looked a little panicked, her singing stopped abruptly, and her big eyes looked at them with a hint of panic.

"Brother Yang, you scared her, I think she looks like a savage."

"Little sister, can you understand our words? We are not bad people." Guo Fu looked up at the girl and asked softly.She looked deeply at the girl. The girl was about sixteen or seventeen years old. Her big, bright eyes were pure and clear. She looked at a loss, which made people feel pity.

The girl still didn't answer.Guo Fu couldn't hold back her anger, she saw the girl's simplicity and innocence, she thought she was murdered by some bad guys and brought her here.With a heartbeat, he jumped on his toes lightly, flew between the cliffs, and came to the girl's side.

Yang Guo was shocked, and immediately jumped up the cliff, "Fu'er! If you want to save someone, you have to ask first, so reckless." In this barbaric place, right and wrong are unknown, he was worried about Guo Fu's safety, and lightly reprimanded her.

"Look at how pitiful she is, she must have been done by bad people." Guo Fu felt unhappy when he heard him accusing her, and her eyes burst into flames.At this time, she had already untied the rope that bound the girl, and the rock wall suddenly loosened.

Guo Fu took advantage of the momentum of the cliff and tapped her toes lightly, returning to her body and landing smoothly.The girl didn't know martial arts, she fell backwards, Yang Guo was startled, he jumped down and grabbed the girl's slender waist in time, the two landed safely.As soon as he stood firmly, he immediately let go of the girl and returned to Guo Fu's side.

"Brother Yang, it's a good thing you're quick, otherwise—or—" Guo Fu let out a long breath, putting her hands on her chest, "I'm scared to death, I'm scared to death."

Seeing her pale face, Yang Guo felt pity and anger at the same time, "You, there is always a time when you are not obedient. Sooner or later, you will die of anger."

Guo Fu also knew that she was too reckless, so she stepped forward and took his arm, smiling sweetly, "Don't be angry, I'll change it."

Seeing her charming face, Yang Guo calmed down, "Fu'er, I really don't know how you have lived to such an age." He turned his head and looked at the girl in front of him, "You are from a nearby village? Can you understand our language? understand?"

After the girl was rescued by Yang Guo, she stood aside and stared at him obsessively. After a while, she said, "I'm from the village on the other side of the mountain, so I can understand your words."

"Who bound the girl here? An enemy?" Guo Fu asked her curiously.

"It's none of your business." The girl replied coldly, but her eyes were on Yang Guo.

"Although you saved me, you also committed a big taboo." She said this to Yang Guo, her eyes were as calm as water.

Guo Fu and Yang Guo looked at each other, regretting that they did not listen to Yang Guo's words and acted hastily.

Yang Guo didn't pay attention to the girl anymore, he led Guo Fu out, and said angrily in his heart: "You are such an ignorant child, I don't feel grateful for saving her."

"Brother Yang, it's my fault for being too hasty. The barbarians have many rules, I'm afraid..." Guo Fu followed him back to the entrance of the cave, feeling uneasy.

"What can you do to us, Fu'er, it's okay, don't blame yourself." Yang Guo sat down against the cave wall and pulled Guo Fu into his arms, "Go to sleep for a while, don't worry." He comforted him, thinking in his heart , the local barbarians do not have as many taboos as the Wuling barbarians. They are descendants of the Ba people, and their living habits are no different from those of the Han people.Looking back carefully at the scene of saving people just now, there was nothing excessive.What is that little girl referring to?

In the morning after the rain, the cool wind blows, and the cold smoke floats and condenses but does not disperse.Guo Fu woke up curled up in Yang Guo's arms, with a lazy smile on her lips, and closed her eyes to enjoy the warm embrace, "Brother Yang, you woke up so early."

"Well, you didn't sleep well, you were uncomfortable." Yang Guo smiled lightly, his eyes full of doting.

Suddenly Guo Fu opened her eyes wide, "I disturbed you all night?" Then she turned her head and saw the girl who was rescued last night sitting across from her, her cheeks flushed immediately, the intimate posture of herself and Yang Guo overnight, and the crowd watching, she With a low groan, he was ashamed.

"What's there to be shy about? Outsiders see us as husband and wife. Tuman are more open-minded than Han people, and they won't laugh at you." Yang Guo knew she was too ashamed to look up, and whispered in her ear.

She jumped away from his arms, stroking her hair unnaturally.

"Ma'am, is this your husband?" The girl sitting opposite asked her.

Guo Fu was slightly taken aback, and nodded her head as an acknowledgment. "Girl, is your home far from here?"

The girl shook her head, looked at Yang Guo, "It's really good that your husband treats you well."

"Girl, may I ask if there is an old woman near your village with a thin body and very gentle eyes. She is proficient in medicine." Guo Fu asked the girl. According to Wang Jian, after passing this mountain, it should be the place mentioned in the rumors. She didn't dare. Yan Ming wanted to find the grass hag, but only described the appearance of the old woman to the young girl in detail.

Yang Guo felt uncomfortable being looked at by the girl, thinking that with Fu'er in the future he would not need to wear a mask, so he got up and hugged Guo Fu.

"We have a lot of old ladies that Madam asked about, but none with medical skills. I wonder who you two are looking for?"

Guo Fu bit her lower lip lightly, not knowing how to ask again.

"Has Madam been bewitched?" The girl narrowed her eyes slightly.

Yang Guo's heart tightened, this little girl is very clever, it seems she must know where to find the grass hag. "Miss, do you know where to find this old woman?"

"It's hard to say. I haven't heard of the voodoo thing when I grow up. It depends on fate if I meet you." The girl said lightly, "What's your name?"

When Yang Guo heard her say that he was angry, it was as if he hadn't said it, and when she asked his name, he felt that the little girl was being unreasonable.

"Girl, we are foreigners. If we offended you last night, we hope you will forgive me. Those who don't know are innocent." Guo Fu looked at the young girl with a strange expression. She only looked at Yang Guo, but never looked at herself. Could it be... a woman's sense told her , the girl was thinking about how to treat Yang Guo, probably he violated the taboo of other girls. "Girl, we have to hurry, you can go home by yourself." Guo Fu thought the safest way was to leave the girl with Yang Guo.

Guo Fu turned around and went out of the cave with Yang Guo, she just wanted to escape from this girl, she was worried, she always felt that she was in trouble again.

"Fu'er, you don't believe me?" Seeing her walking in a hurry, Yang Guo grabbed her wrist and asked her.

"No, you don't know, a man in a barbaric land offends a girl, he either stays or dies."

Yang Guo laughed out loud when she heard what she said, "Fu'er, are you serious? Don't dare to brag about anything else. There is no one who can keep me. If I die, I usually cause people to die."

Guo Fu stomped her feet anxiously, "You're so frightening, so crazy! I always feel uneasy, even martial arts have weaknesses."

"My weakness is you." He confessed subconsciously, his heart tightened suddenly, they couldn't trap me, Yang Guo, they wouldn't attack Fu Mei.

"The focus is not on me now. What if that girl wants to recruit you as her son-in-law?" Guo Fu narrowed her eyes with a smile, her expression mischievous and charming.

"You think it's fun?"

"No, no, I guessed it." Guo Fu looked at his evil and dangerous eyes, stuck out her tongue and smiled, "Let's go, I'm not joking. I'll be by your side to see which girl dares to keep you!"

"Fu'er, you really don't care, or are you not jealous?" Fu'er, who has always been in love with her, never cares, Yang Guo has a frustrated face, feeling extremely unhappy.

Seeing that he looked lonely, Guo Fu stepped forward to hold him, and said softly, "Brother Yang, although I am stupid, I am not stupid. Do you treat other girls the same as you treat me? Even though I am self-willed, I am still praised by you." In the palm of my hand. I have known since I was a child that you treat me differently from others, no matter what difficulties you are in, you are always the first to save me, do you think I am really indifferent?" Her eyes were warm, her cherry lips moved slightly, and she exhaled like Lan, "Do I still need to care about others?"

Hearing what she said, Yang Guo also felt that he was petty, so he smiled at her, "You are different from others." He stretched out his arm to hold Guo Fu, his figure swayed slightly and rose into the air, walking lightly through Lin Yueshu, like a bird passing through a tree. The clouds were erratic, and in an instant, walking against the wind, he had already rushed tens of feet.

The two jumped freely in the forest, using the trees to fly through the sky, and they rushed to the back mountain. The Tujia stockade deep in the mountain was hidden in the vast and lush ancient trees. Among the green mountains and green waters, the mountains are rough and cold, and the water is gentle and tender.The melodious and provocative love songs echoed in the valley.

"Brother Yang, this can be regarded as a paradise." Guo Fu was fascinated by the beautiful scenery in front of him, and looked at the surrounding mountains and rivers with a lively expression.

"It's very beautiful, simple and natural." Yang Guo took Guo Fu to the village, "Since the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the barbarian leaders surrendered to the imperial court, and the Song Dynasty even made them 'rule the barbarians with the barbarians' and their leaders can be hereditary." During the conversation, the two We have arrived in front of the tallest chieftain building in the village. The building here is different from other stilted buildings. The outside of the building is high and the courtyard is deep. The wooden building in the courtyard is tall and magnificent, and the wooden beams and columns are exquisitely carved.At this time, a young girl came out from the gate of the building. She had dark skin, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, a healthy body, long braids hanging down her waist, and a red scarf covered with silver ornaments. skirt.
