Early in the morning, the night rain started to clear up.
It was humid in the mountains, and big drops of water dripped from the leaves and hit the rabbit's hat, making a mess.
Zhao Changhe took Cui Yuanyang's little hand and flew all the way through the mountains and forests. He climbed over the mountain where he stayed at night and did not enter the mountain road. He continued to run up another mountain on the opposite side, taking an uninhabited trail.
Cui Yuanyang didn't complain at all. He held her little hand honestly and allowed the thorns in the forest to cut her lovely coat into a mess.
She did not give a choice and allowed Zhao Changhe to arrange it, but this attitude itself showed the choice - she was unwilling to choose the first option.
She left home to find Zhao Changhe because she was attracted by the turmoil and excitement of the world. She was also attracted by the wildness that was completely different from the gentle family members she had seen since she was a child. The little girl in the rebellious period was impulsive. When the impulse passed, no matter how many things happened,
, she would know her stupidity at that time. Fortunately, Zhao Changhe did not disappoint her, otherwise she would have been put in various ways, and she would have regretted it.
When she was blocked by officers and soldiers in the city, she realized what kind of stain it would bring to her life, and she became grateful to Zhao Changhe for his actions in protecting her reputation while ruining his own reputation.
And it's the same this time. If she follows Zhao Changhe and flies away, she will have no other choice but to marry him. Has she considered it?
The little girl had never thought so much before this.
Once she thought about it, she realized that she didn't know, or at least couldn't make such a decision hastily.
Yangyang wanted to go home. She missed her parents, her brother, and that beautiful black peony... She didn't want to wander outside for a year and a half, being dragged to sleep by him and giving birth to a child.
Yangyang herself is still a child.
But Cui Yuanyang knew that the second way was a thorny road. Even if Zhao Changhe said it calmly, it would still be much more dangerous than taking a detour. Let her directly say that I want to go home. Let's take the risk. Then she
It's also impossible to tell.
We meet by chance, Zhao Changhe has done enough, and he doesn’t even want you for this ordinary secret book. Why should he let others be involved in danger and rely on your piece of cake? There is no need for him to be involved in these things. He can fly away long ago.
.
Zhao Changhe understood her thoughts, rested all night without talking, and took the little rabbit straight out of the hole early the next morning.
Cui Yuanyang resignedly got out of the cave and followed him. The moment he found out that the direction was to Qinghe, the little rabbit's heart trembled. It was like a stone flying from the sky and hitting Qinghe, causing ripples in circles.
ripple.
In fact, Zhao Changhe was born brave, with a beginning and an end, so he would have walked this thorny road, right?
Maybe even Han Wubing saw it and knew that he would definitely send Yangyang home.
But Yangyang still felt very strange.
The morning sunlight shines through the treetops in the mountains and reflects on his face. It is so beautiful, more perfect than the statues of the masters.
"Are you tired?" Zhao Changhe suddenly asked after he had been running away for an unknown amount of time.
Cui Yuanyang was panting, but still insisted: "It's okay."
"Well... you are at the third level of the Mysterious Gate after all, and have first-class Qinggong. You can still endure it." Zhao Changhe said: "Let's take a break first. I just can't go to the city to rest and eat anymore. No matter how unpalatable this cake is, I have to make do with it.
.”
Cui Yuanyang looked at the rough cake he took out. It was not only unpalatable, but also a little dirty... But she didn't say anything, took the cake and ate it in small bites.
Zhao Changhe smiled. This girl... is much cuter than the imagined rich lady.
He strode to the stream next to it, took a long drink, and picked a wide leaf, filled some water with it, and brought it back: "Na."
Cui Yuanyang held the water and was a little curious: "Why don't you drink your wine gourd? Is it gone?"
Zhao Changhe smiled: "Yes, but you have to use it sparingly."
Cui Yuanyang thought he was dealing with it when he was addicted to alcohol, so he didn't say anything and just lowered his head to eat the cake.
Suddenly there was a gust of wind, and there seemed to be a fishy smell in the mountains.
Cui Yuanyang didn't know what it meant. Isn't the mountain breeze normal... He was still eating the cake silently, his mind full of thoughts.
Zhao Changhe raised his head, glanced up, and said with a smile: "You eat, I'll relieve myself in the back, but don't turn your head."
Cui Yuanyang wrinkled his nose: "Who is looking at you!"
Immediately, his face became a little bitter. What should I do if I need to urinate...I haven't urinated since last night...
By the way, while he was going to relieve himself, shouldn't he take this opportunity to relieve himself? Cui Yuanyang had long forgotten that he said not to turn around, and subconsciously turned around to see where he was.
At this glance, he saw Zhao Changhe leaping forward with a steel knife in his hand, and an eye-catching white-fronted tiger in front of him rushed down towards Zhao Changhe.
The two sides are about to meet in mid-air.
"Roar!" The tiger roared in the forest, shaking the vegetation.
Cui Yuanyang dropped the cake in his hand and quickly covered his mouth.
People who have never seen a tiger pounce on food can imagine how to slide and shovel when facing a tiger, but when they face it directly, the momentum of the giant beast that weighs several hundred kilograms and rushes straight down at them is so overwhelming that their minds are empty.
Yes, fear can immobilize people.
At this moment, Cui Yuanyang's mind was empty. He didn't know where the sword skills he had practiced since childhood had gone.
He watched helplessly as Zhao Changhe was in mid-air, the knife in his hand was the color of blood, and the sharp red light struck the tiger's forehead heavily.
Gods and Buddhas are gone!
He actually didn't want to dodge You Dou from the beginning. He was afraid that Cui Yuanyang behind him would be injured if he gave way, so he used a special skill to try to stop the tiger in front!
"Bang!" I don't know whether the blow was real or not. Blood sprayed out. The powerful impact caused Zhao Changhe to fall in mid-air. He quickly twisted his waist in the air and kicked the tree trunk behind him, and it rebounded like an arrow.
And out.
The tiger's forehead was bleeding. It roared wildly, spun around and cut its tail, then threw it heavily towards Zhao Changhe in mid-air.
Zhao Changhe spun around in the air, sweeping the tiger's tail into the air. The knife had already slashed along the tiger's waist, causing blood to rain all over the sky.
"Step!" Zhao Changhe fell in front, and the strong inertia made him slide forward a few feet before he stood still. He turned around and looked back, seeing that the tiger was already dead.
In Cui Yuanyang's eyes, he is truly like a god.
In a daze, I remembered my brother's comment, like a tiger descending from a mountain, a dragon enters the sea.
How can a tiger compare to him?
"Ah, I told you not to look. I thought I could kill it in seconds, but I underestimated it. Damn, even the tigers here are more powerful than those in Beimang." Zhao Changhe strode back with hundreds of kilograms of tiger carcasses on his back and said with a smile: "
Since you are traveling in the mountains, you will encounter wild beasts. It is easier to deal with them than experts, and they will also deliver meat to your door. It’s okay, you continue to eat, and I will see if I can grill some meat."
Cui Yuanyang asked in a strange way: "Do you often hunt tigers in Beimang?"
"Well, I haven't hunted before. At that time, this thing was hunted by Luo... Well, it was my friend who was hunting, but I only saw him occasionally. It was winter at that time, and although tigers were not hibernating, they had little activity, so it was not easy to see." Zhao
While Chang He was cutting the tiger meat, he was very excited and said: "She hunted one at that time, and the whole village was like the Chinese New Year. Teacher Sun peeled the tiger skin himself to make a chair cushion, which was the one I sat on in the Juyi Hall later. I don't know.
Have you seen... Oh, it seems that you didn't enter the Juyi Hall, but I took you to the room..."
Cui Yuanyang just sat on one side with her chin in her hands and watched him ramble on. It seemed like she couldn't hear clearly what he said.
"Huh? Why are you looking at me all the time?"
"Oh...oh, it's okay. I, I, I'll go relieve myself too, and don't turn around!" Cui Yuanyang jumped up like a rabbit and slipped into the bushes behind Zhao Changhe.
Zhao Changhe: "..."
Although I can't see you squatting behind the bushes, please don't take off your clothes and squat at the same time...
Why is it the white tiger again? Isn’t this wrong? Isn’t it the same length?
"Ah!!!" Cui Yuanyang's scream suddenly came.
Zhao Changhe suddenly stood up: "What's wrong?"
"Yes, there is a snake!"
"..." Zhao Changhe grabbed her sword and threw it to her hand accurately: "You can use the Cui family's swordsmanship by yourself. I really can't help you this time."
Cui Yuanyang drew his sword and chopped the snake into pieces, then looked at Zhao Changhe's back suspiciously: "You...how do you know where my hands are?"
"Identify the position by listening to the voice. Do you know the position by listening to the voice?" Zhao Changhe was so embarrassed that his face turned red and he didn't even want to grill the tiger meat: "You've almost rested. Let's go quickly after you finish the exercise!"
Little White Rabbit picked up his pants and chased after him: "Zhao Changhe! It turns out you are also very nasty!"
Zhao Changhe turned his head and made a tiger-claw gesture: "I'll put you in eighteen different ways if you keep talking!"
"All you have left is your mouth."
"You just said I was nasty. Is your brain made of hemp?"
"Huh." The little girl seemed to have completely forgotten what she was questioning just now, and naturally put her hand into his big hand. The two started Qinggong and ran all the way.
The days of wandering around the mountains with a beautiful girl are so unpretentious and boring.
If he had a choice, Zhao Changhe would rather deal with tigers and snakes like this every day, and it would be best to reach Qinghe like this all the way.
Unfortunately, the road leading to Qinghe is not a series of mountains. After traveling through the mountains for three days, the road ahead is already flat.
The stream flows from the mountain stream behind and gradually merges into the river in front. In the flowing river, there are ships floating and fishermen singing melodious songs.
Zhao Changhe took a deep breath.
If you want to cross a river, that is the place where people are most likely to sit and wait, and their whereabouts will be difficult to conceal from now on.
