Chapter 2 The beauty of the foggy forest

Night soon fell, and the temperature on the mountain began to drop, especially in the fog. But fortunately, it was already mid-April, and although it was a little cold, it was not so cold.

"We've been walking for so long, we don't have any direction at all, it seems that we are still in place, it's really a bit evil." "The temperature is getting lower and lower, and I don't know if it will be colder in the middle of the night, so we need to find a place like a cave to avoid and build a fire to keep warm." ”

"You say, it's strange that you haven't seen a living creature, not even a single fruit, and you really have to be hungry for three days. Will we be able to escape? ”

Zhang Sirui sat next to Yan Ziyu and muttered, with a weed in his mouth, which seemed to be relishing. It's no wonder that he, he hasn't eaten for so long, and he's already hungry. The girls on one side were also cooing with hunger, and they shared these edible wild vegetables and the like in their hands. The girls didn't feel bitter, starvation was normal in this era, as long as they lived.

"Don't say these frustrating words, you can't say anything nice, at least we're alive, at least we're free of devils now." Yan Ziyu said, saying that he doesn't want to talk now, he's hungry.

But Yan Ziyu remembered something, raised his voice and said, "Girls, I know you are all hungry now, but there is no way, we have nothing to eat." Look at what you can eat next to you, eat what you can, and replenish your strength. But I would like to remind you that you should never leave where you are. This forest is strange, and if I walk away, I am afraid that I will get lost in this wood. Remember, even when you are resting, you should hold hands so as not to change, and it will be a little warmer. Did you hear me clearly? ”

"Benefactor, don't worry, we're all clear." Tian Lanxiang seems to be the spokesperson among these girls, she is bold and dares to say that these girls don't have a backbone, so they all listen to her. Under Tian Lanxiang's explanation, they all held each other's hands tightly, for fear of separation, but also to seek a sense of security.

"Look, the moon is out, it's so round, is it fifteen today?" At this time, a young female voice sounded.

Everyone looked up and saw that above the woods, this round of bright moon was hung, hanging above the nine heavens like a jade plate, cold and beautiful, pouring down the endless moonlight, the moonlight was like flowing water, beautiful and dreamy. No one present had ever seen such a beautiful full moon, rounder than usual, larger than usual, as if within reach. Above the bright moon, a towering palace can be faintly seen, and there is a jade rabbit pounding medicine. Under the huge laurel tree, there is a graceful figure, which seems to be dancing.

"It's so beautiful, is that Chang'e."

"I saw the Jade Rabbit pounding medicine there."

"Is that the Guanghan Palace where the fairy lives? Is there really a fairy who lives on the moon, isn't it beautiful on the moon? “

The girl was attracted by the beauty of the sky, and you forgot your own predicament for the time being.

"It's so beautiful, I've never seen a moon like this." Zhang Sirui muttered.

"Well, it's really beautiful. I want to go back by the wind, but I am afraid of Qionglou Yuyu. This situation and this scene could not be more appropriate. Yan Ziyu has been reading poetry since he was a child, and when he saw such a bright moon, he suddenly felt a sense of poetry in his heart.

Zhang Sirui hadn't read a few books, so he was just literate, and nodded on the side as if he didn't understand. Although he didn't spend much poetry and songs, he also felt that at this time, only the beautiful poems that his master said when he was young could describe it.

"No, there is a lot of fog here, why can we see the moon so clearly, in the daytime, we can't see the sunlight through the fog, this is unreasonable." Yan Ziyu was not confused by the beautiful scenery, and suddenly discovered this unreasonableness. He looked around and saw that the fog had not dissipated as before.

When Zhang Sirui heard Yan Ziyu say this, he also reacted immediately, glanced around and said, "What you said is yes, this place is really weird." There was such a thick fog, but the sky was clearly visible. Do you think we strayed into some forbidden place and encountered some ghosts? ”

The girls trembled visibly when they heard the word ghost.

Yanzi was suddenly nervous when he saw the atmosphere, and immediately said: "What are the ghosts, don't talk nonsense." Even if there is anything, it is a fairy. You didn't hear the legend that the girl said before, the legend says that there are fairies living here, maybe we can meet the fairies and be saved. ”

"Yes, yes, you're right, look at my broken mouth, it's a fairy. It's just that everyone is not allowed to enter, and it doesn't hurt people, and it must be a fairy who thinks it's kind-hearted. Zhang Sirui looked at the girl's door and quickly said with a smile.

When the girls heard this, the nervousness in their hearts was a little better, and they were convinced of the gods and ghosts.

The night is getting deeper and deeper, and the moon has risen in the middle of the sky. Everyone was tired, but no one could sleep. The moon in the sky is getting bigger and bigger, and the moon is like a waterfall, and everyone seems to hear the sound of running water. When the moon was high in the sky, there seemed to be a beam of moonlight reaching the top of the mountain, and the fog in the forest seemed to fade a little.

In the dark, Yan Ziyu seemed to see a confused path, and at the end of the road was the top of the mountain, and on the top of the mountain, there seemed to be a figure sitting there.

"You look at the top of the mountain, it looks like there's a person." Yan Ziyu said suddenly.

"Where." When Zhang Sirui heard this, he hurriedly looked towards the top of the mountain, and vaguely seemed to be a person sitting on the rock at the top of the mountain, which seemed to be the figure of a woman, shrouded in the moonlight, graceful and light, as if she was about to become an immortal.

"There really is, it can't be the legendary fairy."

"Maybe." Yan Ziyu was also attracted by this hazy and graceful figure, but after all, it was a figure, and it didn't make him fascinated. He didn't agree with what Zhang Sirui said about the fairy, he felt that it was either an illusion created by the moonlight, or a person who lived in seclusion here. Now that the war is in chaos, many people are willing to hide in the mountains.

"Let's go up and have a look. If there are real people, we may be able to find food and a way down the mountain, and even if there is no one, we may be able to find the way from the top of the mountain, or find traces of devils, so we can think of countermeasures in advance. "Yan Ziyu suggested.

"I agree with your suggestion, and we don't have any other choice anyway. But can we go to the top of the mountain, this forest is so evil. Zhang Sirui said.

"Isn't there a road, the fog has lightened a little, as if it leads all the way to the top of the mountain, don't you see?" Yan Ziyu asked in surprise, didn't you see it so obviously, although it wasn't the way people came out, but the fog was a little lighter.

"No, where is it?" Zhang Sirui looked around, but he couldn't see the way Yan Ziyu said.

"Can I see it, but you can't see it?" Yan Ziyu said, thought for a while, turned his head and asked the girl behind him, "Have you seen it?" ”

"Nope." The girls shook their heads.

"I seem to have remembered a legend, and I don't know if it's true." Tian Lanxiang said.

"What a legend, you say." Yan Ziyu asked.

"Legend has it that a long time ago, fairies came to settle here. Many people come to visit, but not everyone gets to see it. Only a sincere person can move the fairy, and the fairy will guide the person to the top of the mountain. I wonder if it could be a fairy descending for guidance. Tian Lanxiang said. This legend has been around for a long, long time, and few people know about it anymore. She still heard the old man when she was a child, it was the oldest person in their village, and it is said that her ancestors had been guided by fairies, asked for fairy medicine, and saved the life of the ancestor's wife at that time.

"We don't know if the legend is true, but one thing that may be true is that this guide will take us to the top of the mountain. It's just that this place is very evil, and there is obviously a road, but only I can see it. I don't know if it's bad or bad ahead, whether I can get to the top of the mountain. Even if we get to the top of the mountain, we don't know where it is. Yan Ziyu said.

"Why don't we go up, we're here anyway, so it's better to give it a go." Zhang Sirui said.

"I'm not afraid, it's these girls." Words meet and stop.

Tian Lanxiang and these girls glanced at each other and said, "Engong, we are willing to go up." Even if we die there, we are not afraid, we are also people who have died once, and it is better to die on this mountain than to die if you fall into the hands of the Japanese. Engong, you saved us regardless of yourself, and we are willing to follow Engong, even if we die, we will not regret it. ”

"Yes, we are willing to follow Eun Gong, and we will not regret dying." The girls also said.

"Okay, in that case, let's break through. I'm sure we're not going to die here, we're going to get out. Zhang Sirui said.

"Well, then let's break through, maybe we can really meet the legendary fairy." Yan Ziyu said, "Girls, let's go, follow me, Sirui, your palace." ”

"Alright, let's go." Zhang Sirui nodded.

In this way, two men and a group of girls, in the moonlight, set off towards the road ahead. No one knows what will be waiting for them in front of them, whether it is a ghost or a fairy, but they have no hesitation, and death no longer seems to be terrible.
