After coming out of Guo Anni's bedroom, Lan Feiyang carefully washed the antique jade ring that Guo Anni bought yesterday and put it in the cabinet in her study that was specially designed for small jewelry.
The more he looked at it, the more he felt that this ring and his own ring looked like a pair, so he couldn't help but take out the ring tied with a red string on his chest and compare it again and again.
I feel that my piece has more shadow-like patterns, is slightly larger, and has a crack. No matter the texture, texture, color, or rustic atmosphere, it is exactly the same. It really looks like a pair polished from close to each other. Ring.
Moreover, he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to see a hazy light flashing out when the two rings came together.
But when he opened his eyes and looked carefully, there was nothing strange. There were just two simple and warm white jade-like rings in his hands. He could only think that he was dazzled just now.
Finally, he pursed his lips, put down the ring and shook his head: What if it's a pair? So what if it's not a pair?
He went to the gym on the third floor again and practiced for more than an hour using as little force as possible before going back to his room to rest - he has made great progress in controlling his force and will no longer damage the walls and floor. Because there are really some I was tired, so I fell asleep quickly.
On the edge of the green mountain forest, every leaf is verdant; in the distance, the river is flowing clearly; squirrels are jumping leisurely on the trees, and the orioles are lightly croaking in the sky.
"Lan, wait for me." A pretty and lively little girl of eleven or twelve years old called, waving her white and tender arms like lotus roots. Not far in front of her was a young man with disheveled hair who was one or two years older than her. He was jumping and picking wild flowers among the fluttering butterflies.
"Hey." The young man turned around and smiled brightly, with a round pear dimple appearing on the left side of his face.
He reached out and picked two particularly beautiful flowers, then turned back and ran to the girl holding the flowers: "Lotus Master, look, I picked several more beautiful and exotic flowers."
"Yeah! It's so beautiful!" The girl stretched out her pink hands to take the delicate flowers in the boy's hands.
"I'll make a garland for you to wear." Seeing the girl holding the largest and most beautiful peony and happily smelling the fragrance of the flower, the boy said with a smile.
"Okay!" The girl nodded. The boy started to weave the garland quickly, and in a moment a beautiful garland was ready.
The young man placed some particularly delicate flowers in front of the girl and nodded with satisfaction: "Lotus Master, you are so beautiful!"
"Really?" The girl giggled innocently as she spun around. The boy pulled the girl to the side of the river and let her look at the crystal clear water for herself.
While the girl was intoxicated with her beautiful reflection in the water, several women who were sowing seeds in the distance dissatisfiedly asked them to go to work. One of the women with a black face and triangular eyes said to a woman who looked more noble: "Madam, Blue When he is older, he should be allowed to learn hunting and herding from the men. Otherwise, if he continues to play around with the Lotus Master without any respect, something will happen."
"You are right to remind me." The noble woman nodded, "Lan's mother has served me since she was a child, and Lan grew up with Lian, so I almost forgot about it. Lan should have gone hunting with the men long ago. Grazing and clearing up wasteland."
So the boy called "Blue" was taken to a middle school among men to hunt and herd.
When Lan is hunting or grazing, the girl's innocent and beautiful smile always appears in front of his eyes.
Because he was already half a boy and lived with the men; and the girl was the daughter of a protected leader, he could not see her often.
But he misses her and wonders if the new little girl can serve her well? Can she do somersaults and make faces to make her happy? Will she pick beautiful wild flowers for her? Can she cut tender grass to feed her newly raised sika deer?
?
He really wanted to play games and have fun with her as before.
However, he is no longer a child, and has reached the age where he should learn the skills of a man. However, she is the daughter of the leader, and she is no longer someone who, as a lowly member of the clan, can approach him at will. Unless he strives to become a clan warrior and work as an errand beside the leader.
.
Therefore, he worked hard to practice hunting skills every day, and at night he also learned to strengthen his physical strength from the warriors. He gritted his teeth and kept making progress.
Flowers are blooming and leaves are falling, snow is falling, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye. This year, there was a lot of rain in early summer. Days of heavy rain caused river levels to surge and flash floods to break out.
Late one night, the roaring flood peak submerged all the wooden houses and low caves at the foot of the mountain. Lan, who was thinking about the girl, saw that the leader, his wife and their sons had all gone up the mountain, but Lian was not there.
When he heard that she and her maid were chasing the panicked sika deer, he didn't follow the tribe to higher ground, but rushed down the mountain desperately to find Lian.
Lan held up a piece of banana leaf, lying on the water, calling in the dark night in the rain: "Lotus... Lotus Master, where are you?"
"I'm here!" A whimper of surprise suddenly came from the dark night.
Lan ran toward the sound, and dimly saw a slender figure hugging a bare tree stump after the collapse of a wooden house and asking with choked sobs: "Lan, is that you?"
"Lotus Master, it's me!" Lan happily came to the tree stump and reached out to help her down, and then carried her up the mountain in waist-deep floods. However, the floodwater continued to rise, and in an instant it reached Lan's chest.
Already.
"Lan, will we drown?" Lian clung to his back and asked tremblingly in the drizzle.
"No." The tired Lan smiled and walked faster in the early morning light, heading towards a small hill not far away. When he walked with difficulty out of the water and onto a solid slope, he gasped and put down
Lian sat down with her legs weak.
Lian was afraid that the water would flood again soon, so she dragged him up and helped each other to the top of the mountain. By then it was daybreak and the rain had stopped.
Because her clothes were dirty and wet, Lan took them off and tied them around her waist with banana leaves. Then she made a short skirt for Lian by threading the tendons of tree branches through large leaves, and asked her to take off her wet clothes and light a fire to bake them.
Otherwise you will get sick.
Lian was embarrassed for a long time, and then she shyly changed out of it, but covered her chest with wet clothes. Because at the age of thirteen or fourteen, the delicate breasts were already rising like buds.
"Master Lian, how can you dry your clothes by baking them like this?" Lan Fan was baking his clothes that were smoking white, and glanced at Lian with confusion as he slowly walked to the fire and sat down, "How can you dry your clothes like me?"
Put the clothes on the fire to bake. How about you bring them over and I can bake them for you?"
"Ah... No, no, no." Lian quickly shook her head and waved her hands in embarrassment, "I'd better bake it slowly by myself. You bake your clothes and go find something to eat. I'm hungry."
"Oh well."
While Lan put on the freshly dried clothes and walked away, Lian quickly leaned over and put the clothes on the fire to dry.
The hills exposed on the water were not too big. Lan searched around and didn't see even a hare or a pheasant. He only picked some green fruits and came back.
He happened to see the beautiful bud-like bulge on Lian's chest from the side between the branches and leaves, and suddenly he was stunned, and then his face turned red.
He understood why Lian had covered her chest with wet clothes just now: Master Lian had grown up! In order to avoid embarrassment and to calm his mind, he waited for a while before stroking away the branches and walking over.
