Chapter 204: The Test
He turned around, picked up a water bladder from the fire in the yard, and threw it to Pu Yangxuan, "The water in the forest is poisonous, you bring this." Because I'm a monk, I can't have a murder weapon on me, ...... Let's see for yourself. ”
He raised his hands, formed the shape of eagle claws, and made a fluttering motion.
"In short, although my brother knows martial arts, it's better to be careful."
Pu Yangxuan turned his head to Xue Jinyi and said, "You wait for me in the carriage, and I'll go back when I go." ”
"No, I'll go with you." Xue Jinyi grabbed his arm without hesitation, and smiled at An Zhi: "Master Yonghua is merciful, how can he let people step into a dangerous place and lose their lives in vain, so as to test people?" So, ah......"
She looked at the forest again.
"Just as you can't just look at your appearance, so you can look at everything."
Pu Yang was stunned, looked at his friend, and shook his head with a smile.
An Zhi sighed, "Then why don't you go quickly?" ”
"Thank you, Master Anzhi, for showing the way." Xue Jinyi looked at the somewhat disappointed monk with a smile, waved her hand, and walked through the overgrown courtyard with Pu Yangxuan, went out through the back door, and walked into the forest.
To get closer, the forest does not look so terrible, those dark green leaves turned out to be a large piece of pines and cypresses, of course, the big trees that cover the sky and the sun can not penetrate the sun, and there are a few osmanthus trees, it is now July, it is not yet the time to bloom, want to come to wait for the flowers to bloom, the osmanthus fragrance is rich and fragrant, if you can all pick them back, make into a variety of food, it must be very beautiful.
"Sure enough, I didn't know the truth until I got closer." Xue Jinyi looked around, "It looks scary from afar, but it's pretty good up close." ”
Pu Yangxuan said meaningfully: "Is it like you treat me?" ”
Xue Jinyi looked at him sideways and muttered, "It's obvious that you're looking at me, right?" Didn't you dislike it to death at first, and that posture wanted to kill me? ”
Pu Yangxuan grabbed her hand, "I don't want to let go of your hand at all now." ”
Thankfully, they gave each other a heartfelt treat.
"Ah Xuan, the roots of your ears seem to be red." Xue Jinyi stared at Pu Yangxuan's face and said seriously.
Puyang Xuan's face did not change color, "It's hot." ”
"Really? It's a pity I didn't bring a mirror, otherwise I would have let you take a good look at your blushing face. Xue Jinyi laughed, teasing Ah Xuan is really a happy thing.
Pu Yangxuan turned his face away, pretended not to hear her, picked up a branch, used it to sweep away the weeds, and walked into the forest.
Although Lin Zi didn't look terrifying, for the sake of caution, Xue Jinyi followed closely behind him.
"There are traces of people passing by, not wild beasts." Pu Yangxuan said softly, the experience that walking around as Ah Yan had brought him, allowing him to easily distinguish all traces in the forest.
"You say, will there be jackals, tigers and leopards here?" Xue Jinyi looked around and asked softly, carefully avoiding the dry branches on the ground, "There are one or two sporadically, if they don't appear very often, Master Yonghua may not know about them......"
Pu Yangxuan said: "Although there are fewer people here, the beasts have already been captured, so I am afraid of hurting passers-by." If you want to find the traces of those beasts, you have to go to the mountains over there. ”
He raised his hand to the mountains beyond.
"But hares, badgers, and the like can still be seen in such forests." Pu Yangxuan's eyes were bright and looked at Xue Jinyi.
"Are we here to find Master Yonghua, or don't do anything killing?" Xue Jinyi shook her head.
"Hmm." Puyang Xuan said: "When it is autumn, my father will go hunting, and the princes, ministers, and nobles will accompany him." If you're interested, we can also follow along. ”
"Okay."
In fact, in the backward feudal era without networks and electronic devices, there were many things to do, and life was not boring.
Xue Jinyi thought about it, and her current life can be described as "wonderful".
Also, I finally experienced love here.
After walking for a while, it suddenly became clear to them that there was a cliff that was not too deep in front of them, and under the cliff was a rushing river, and a somewhat rudimentary suspension bridge connected the two banks.
Pu Yangxuan squatted down, stroked the shallow shoe prints on the mud with his fingertips, and walked to the suspension bridge to try the degree of acquaintance.
"......" Xue Jinyi cautiously looked at the river under the cliff, and somehow remembered that when she crossed into this world, she floated in the water and almost drowned.
"Sort of." She honestly admitted, "But did Master Yonghua walk across this suspension bridge?" ”
"Judging from the shoe prints, it should have been an hour to walk over," Pu Yang Xuan dusted off the dirt on his fingers, "there are no shoe prints returned." It's okay to take a detour, but it will take an extra half an hour. ”
"We have to get back by noon." Xue Jinyi gritted her teeth and made up her mind, "The others can only go to Baiyun Temple after noon, which means that Xue Fangyi will leave around noon, and she will definitely do it again after that." We have to go back as soon as possible and be prepared. ”
As soon as the words fell, she saw Pu Yangxuan half-squatting down in front of her.
"Huh?"
Pu Yangxuan patted his shoulder, "I'll carry you over, you just need to close your eyes." ”
Xue Jinyi smiled slightly, and lay on his back obediently.
"You're still so light." Pu Yangxuan stood up easily, "It's like a flower falling on my back." ”
"It's not such an exaggeration." Xue Jinyi said with a smile.
Pu Yangxuan looked serious, "I don't lie to you." Close your eyes. ”
"Hmm." Xue Jinyi lay on her warm and thick back, wrapped her arms around Pu Yangxuan's neck, buried her face in his shoulder socket, smelled the familiar smell, and closed her eyes.
The darkness fell, the wind blew across her cheeks, and the sound of running water could make her know that she was on the edge of a cliff, but she didn't have the slightest fear.
Pu Yangxuan took solid steps, but when he stepped on the suspension bridge, he still couldn't stop the bridge from shaking, and a dangerous "squeak" sound followed.
Not only that, the sound of the water was clearer, and the wind became more violent, Xue Jinyi couldn't help rubbing against Pu Yangxuan's body, closing her eyes tighter, and grabbing his clothes with one hand involuntarily, so as to bring some sense of security.
Pu Yangxuan took out a hand, put it on the back of Xue Jinyi's hand, and then spoke.
In the sound of water and wind, Xue Jinyi heard a low chanting.
I don't know if it's an ancient language or a certain dialect, she can't understand it, but she knows that the man's voice is originally good, and the songs he sings are even more beautiful.
She smiled knowingly, her frown loosening a little.
As long as they are together, there is nothing to fear.
