Qianfeng Town is located in a basin in Qianfeng Ridge. The surrounding mountains provide natural protection, making it almost isolated from the outside world. After traveling for a long time, several people were finally able to rest in the town. Although there was a little incident, they also got to know Ajuan, the daughter of the local Miao leader.
Pushing through the towering peaks, one passes through similar forks in the road. Just when Zhao Kuo and his party were sighing inwardly that Ajuan could understand the complex road conditions by heart, Miao Nu who was walking in the front said: "We are almost at the town after turning the corner in front. However, there is a slope on which it is dangerous to ride a horse. , so let’s dismount and walk first, right?”
"Miss Ajuan, do you want Yan'er to dismount too?" Bai Feng asked.
"Ouch! Look at your distressed look." Ajuan joked mischievously: "With a man as fierce as Mr. Bai next to him, the horse won't dare to make a mistake no matter what, right?"
The young man called Ajuan's name with a wry smile, trying to deny what she described about himself. Then he looked behind him at Murong Yan, who was covering her mouth and laughing, feeling a little ashamed.
Miao Nu looked into the sky and suddenly said in shock: "Let's go down the mountain quickly, it might rain today!"
"No way, the sky was still clear just now, why did it suddenly become covered with dark clouds again?" Zhao Kuo asked puzzled.
"The sky changes within ten miles in Qianfengling, and sometimes four seasons can occur in one day!"
Sure enough, after a while, sporadic light rain began to fall from the dark sky. Raindrops hit the clothes of several people, and the wind blowing in their faces was still the hot and humid "summer wind". They had just walked down the slope not long ago. When we reached the bottom of the slope, the rain was already very heavy. The dense rain mixed with the cool wind swept over people's bodies, making them shiver. Due to the heavy rain, the five people had to mount their horses to speed up the pace.
Bai Feng sat behind Murong Yan. This was the first time the two of them had such close contact. "Be passionate, stop being polite. When facing your lover, never give her everything you have. Sometimes appropriate restraint and forbearance will be very good for you and her..." Master's earnest words The teachings linger in the young man's heart. For him, who was taught by his master to abide by etiquette, this was the best he could do. Even so, he was content with his work. I don't know when he started, but what he missed day and night was not only his grand ideals and the kindness he should repay, but also the "destiny" that he met by fate. More and more facts prove that what Murong Yan said is true. Perhaps following herself is her "Tao"; while Bai Feng's own "Tao" is to uphold justice in the world. Meeting this wonderful woman has so far been as brief as a dream. In order to distinguish between reality and illusion, the young man almost greedily smelled the body fragrance of the girl in front of him mixed with the smell of rain and grass. He touched the hand she placed on the horse's neck to keep it steady with the hand pulling the reins, feeling the reality. .
At the same time, Murong Yan was keenly aware of this unusual situation. Although they never said they loved each other, the legend about "destiny" was like a red thread connecting their marriage, connecting their hearts together. She gently put her hand on Bai Feng's hand, as if to say: "We will walk through the road ahead together..."
"We're here! Let's rest here for the night!" Ajuan said, pointing to an inn by the road.
"Oh, the rain has finally stopped." Zhao Kuo complained, "My clothes are almost soaked!"
Bai Feng jumped off the horse and said to Murong Yan: "Come, I will carry you."
The girl smiled widely and said, "Brother Feng is so kind to Yan'er!" Then she jumped on the young man's back.
On the other hand, Zhao Xiaomei looked even more depressed. Her beautiful bun, which was damaged by the heavy rain, was as messy as a wild nest of wild birds, which made her even more lost and confused. Zhao Kuo, who cared about his sister, naturally asked her what happened, but the little sister did not answer. It wasn't until Ajuan's words at the next moment that her sad face returned to its former childish and cute look.
"Everyone, look!" Ajuan pointed to the "peak forest" where everyone came and said, "There is a rainbow there!"
Everyone was very surprised to see the seven-colored light pillars stretching between the peaks like a bridge. The little girl who saw this spectacle for the first time was even more relieved from her previous low mood. She stared straight into her eyes, opened her mouth slightly, and praised her repeatedly.
"How's it going, little sister? Isn't it much better than the desolate desert?" Ajuan asked her little sister.
The younger sister looked at the Miao girl who was half a head taller than her and found that she was also disheveled and looked very funny, so she replied with a smile: "Yeah, yeah!"
"Come, come to my room! I will change you into Miao clothes. My little sister will look very beautiful in them!"
Ajuan then led the little girl into the inn. The waiter and the shopkeeper in the inn seemed to recognize her and bowed slightly to show their respect for her. Bai Feng followed behind and handed Murong Yan's injured foot to Ajuan to take care of her, then went back to her room to rest.
In this way, the three women chatted in the room all night, greatly enhancing their mutual understanding and feelings. Zhao Xiaomei also learned about a different Bai Feng from Murong Yan. She would never tell Murong Yan about her crush on that handsome young man. She didn't even want anyone to know, including Bai Feng herself. Being able to learn about him from Sister Murong's mouth is already enough to satisfy the younger sister. She asked Murong Yan to tell the story of how Bai Feng and Murong Yan met no less than three times, including this time tonight. The story between them is like the fairy heroes that the little sister longs for from strange stories. She just wants to be a person in the story once, instead of spending her whole life in a deep house...
It's midnight, when most people are already asleep. But Ajuan didn't. She took a piece of white cloth and a porcelain basin and walked to Zhao Kuo's room.
"Master Zhao, Master Zhao!" Ajuan shook Zhao Kuo and said.
Zhao Kuo woke up in a daze from his sleep and was suddenly startled when he saw Ajuan's figure. He hurriedly picked up his clothes and prepared to put them on. Unexpectedly, Ajuan stopped him and said, "What are you wearing? Take off your clothes quickly and I'll change your dressing!"
"Then... I'm really bothering the girl..." Zhao Kuoxuan took off his shirt, and then asked: "I wonder why Miss Ajuan came to treat my injury in the middle of the night?"
"Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid? I, a young woman, go in and out of the room of a grown man like you by myself. What if others see me?"
"Haha," Zhao Kuo said with a shameful smile, "I'm really ashamed to let the girl risk her reputation."
"You are really ashamed." Ajuan said with deep meaning: "Have you never thought about why my little sister is so depressed?"
Zhao Kuo replied: "This...she has never traveled far away. Maybe she misses her family?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ajuan pinched the bruise on Zhao Kuo's body hard and said complainingly: "You really don't understand women! My little sister did this because she saw me applying medicine to you."
"Ah?" Zhao Kuo said in surprise.
"Anyway, you must stay with her more in the future. A little girl is helpless, and she only has you as her brother!"
"I didn't expect...Miss Ajuan to be so considerate to my roommate."
"Maybe it's because she and I are very similar..."
The night was long and peaceful, and everyone got an excellent sleep in this paradise. However, no one knows what will happen tomorrow.
