The location where Bai Ling and Shangguan Yu were located was about ten meters away from the ground. There were vines everywhere and dense trees, but if they looked carefully, they found that there were dead branches underneath.
These dead branches, like the plants in other parts of Jiming Mountain, decayed due to toxins, and the green color that appeared was probably due to Bai Ling and Shangguan Yu pouring spiritual spring water into the water source some time ago.
The plants here are showing signs of recovery.
If Shangguan Yu hadn't accidentally discovered this protruding stone and the two of them followed the vines, they probably wouldn't have thought that there was a different kind of scenery between the gaps in the rocks.
The two of them walked along the path on one side of the boulder and observed the environment here. The ground in the middle was flat, as if it had been carefully polished, and around the boulder, trees could be seen.
They are distributed in an orderly manner, and these trees are very thick. They should grow very lush before they wither.
In the open space in the gap, there is a flat stone placed here, with several wooden piers placed around it, arranged like a stone table.
There are also baskets, shelves, and chairs made of wood scattered around...
When he saw this scene, Bai Ling was instantly shocked. There were actually people living here between the cracks in the rocks?
"Shangguan, is there anyone here?"
"No, there is no third person breathing here except you and me." When Shangguan Yu saw all this, he subconsciously held his breath and listened, but found nothing.
"Also, although there is some furniture here, it is very dusty. Apparently no one has been here for a long time." Shangguan Yu said, reaching out and wiping the stone on the stone, grinding the dust on his hand, putting it under his nose and smelling it.
"Although this place is backed by mountains, the mountain winds are raging, and the winters are cold and the summers are hot. Why did you choose to live here?" Bai Ling looked at the nearby environment and was full of doubts.
Most people choose to live in a place with mountains and water at their back, which is warm in winter and cool in summer. In this way, even in the wild mountains, you will feel extremely comfortable.
But this was the first time she had seen someone living in the spotlight like this.
The two of them came to the innermost part with doubts. After seeing the scene here, it seemed more certain that someone had indeed lived here before. At the junction of the gaps between the rocks, the space inside was surrounded by a fence. The wooden door opened to reveal a
In the small courtyard, some mountain peppers that have been dried for a long time are drying. Further inside, there is a narrow door, and behind the door, it can be seen that there is a living room.
There was a small bed made of wood, and the bedding was already covered in dust. There was a wardrobe and a table next to the bed, with some daily necessities scattered on it. Judging from the things on it, it looked like a woman's dressing table.
"Shangguan, why does a woman want to live alone in such a remote mountain? There are no other roads connecting to the bottom of the mountain except vines. How did she get up?" Bai Ling looked around, but couldn't find it.
On the way up the mountain, apart from the mountains behind, the only surrounding areas are the vines just now.
I think these vines must have grown lush and green before. Could it be that the woman who lives here is so skilled that she can pull the vines up the mountain?
"It's unknown how she came up, but how she fell down was found. Ling'er, come and have a look!" Shangguan Yu pulled Bai Ling to the dead tree at the door, and then hugged Bai Ling and fell together.
Arriving at the thick trunk of a tree.
Bai Ling leaned on Shangguan Yu's arms and barely stood firm. But he didn't expect that when he lowered his eyes, he saw a big white bird made of stone. Next to the big bird, there was a nest made of weeds.
There is also a small white stone in this nest.
"It seems that the woman living here is still a little leisurely, and she actually became a bird here."
Bai Ling said, pulling the tree trunk and carefully moving over to pick up the small stone in the nest. As expected, it was exactly the same as the small stone in her hand.
She looked at the location of the small stone. It was far away from the entrance of the cave below. She didn't know how the small stone in the nest fell there.
In addition, she felt that the big bird made of stone was so lifelike, as if it were real!
Thinking of Bai Ling, he subconsciously touched the big bird next to the nest.
"Ling'er, be careful!" Shangguan Yu had been watching Bai Ling from the side. When he saw her touching the stone bird on the branch, he immediately warned her.
At this time, Bai Ling's hand had already touched the stone bird.
At this moment, the stone bird seemed to be alive. It suddenly came to life. It opened its mouth and bit Bai Ling. Bai Ling was caught off guard and was bitten on the arm. A bloody gash was opened and blood instantly poured out.
come out.
"Ah!" Bai Ling exclaimed subconsciously, and fell from the branch when his feet lost balance.
Upon seeing this, Shangguan Yu immediately reached out to catch Bai Ling, but he was still a step too late. In desperation, he had to jump down and pull Bai Ling tightly into his arms, using himself as a cushion to support his back.
Shangguan Yu let out a muffled groan and fell from such a high tree, still holding Bai Ling in his arms. If he hadn't strengthened his body, his bones would have fallen apart by now.
"Ling'er, how is your hand?" Shangguan Yu ignored the pain in his body and stood up to check Bai Ling's wounds.
Bai Ling felt a little dizzy at the moment. She shook her head hard, trying to wake herself up: "Shangguan, this stone bird is probably poisonous. Help me get an antidote pill..."
Bai Ling tried her best to keep her eyes open, looking at Shangguan Yu in front of her with overlapping expressions and weak words. She clearly felt that her right hand and right arm that had been bitten had no feeling at all.
Shangguan Yu quickly took out an antidote pill from the cloth bag he carried with him and gave it to Bai Ling to take. He also took off the water bag on his body and gave her some spiritual spring water to drink.
As for the remaining spirit spring water in the water bag, he poured it out to clean Bai Ling's wounds.
At this moment, Bai Ling's wound was full of flesh and blood, and the blood flowing out had turned black and red at some point. Shangguan Yu carefully helped her clean and bandage it, his eyes filled with distress.
"Ling'er, let's go inside and have a rest first." Shangguan Yu treated Bai Ling's wounds, then got up and picked her up, preparing to put her on the small bed in the room to rest, but before he got up, he felt something.
There was an unusual noise behind me.
Shangguan Yu immediately turned around, not wanting to welcome a gust of evil wind, which was strong and mixed with gravel and rushed towards them. He hurriedly turned around and used his own body to pass Bai Ling's hand and began to fly towards the small house. The gravel
It hit him, and even some of it was directly embedded in his flesh, and he didn't hesitate at all.
Shangguan Yu entered the room, quickly closed the door, and placed Bai Ling on the small bed and settled down.
