A warm mountain breeze blew in his face, and Li Xiuyuan had the illusion that it was his mother Ye Zhiqiu who was stretching out her hands to caress his cheek.
This feeling is the kind of atmosphere he felt in the Apricot Blossom Valley one day when he went to the future and transformed into a dog-fighting town.
But unexpectedly, today, in this strange place...
It seemed that he was destined to go back to the place where he faced a strange woman and experienced it silently again.
"In that case, let's go back."
There was no dissatisfaction. Facing such a woman who was as gentle as his mother with the spring breeze blowing on her face, Li Xiuyuan couldn't say the word "no".
It doesn't matter to the crow, as long as it is where Li Xiuyuan is, it will be there.
Xiao Mengdie thought for a while, then stepped forward and took Li Xiuyuan's hand and said, "Master, if you change to the way you were before, Die'er will ask you to carry me on your back tomorrow."
Li Xiuyuan laughed and said, "If you don't want to leave, I will leave on my back tomorrow."
The woman followed slowly, looked at the long path, and said softly: "Thank you, I met a good person today."
The crow thought for a while, then flew onto Li Xiuyuan's shoulder, looked back at the woman and said, "You are not the first one, there was an old man yesterday..."
After saying that, she frowned and looked at Ximen Mengdie who was following it. The little girl made a "Shh!" gesture to it, meaning not to talk nonsense.
She would silence her junior brother until the last moment.
Crow suddenly remembered something, looked at her and nodded, looked at the woman and said, "Our young master is a good person, don't lie to him."
The woman nodded, looked at Xiaodie'er with pity and said, "Thank you, little girl."
Just like Li Xiuyuan didn't see the woman blocking his way, the woman didn't seem to see the piece of black cloth on the young man's face.
Perhaps in her opinion, those who can appear in this mountain forest and set foot on this magical stone path are not ordinary people.
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and said: "This is the last time today. It won't be the same next time." ap.
His words seemed like he was blaming Crow for not exploring the route properly before setting off, and also seemed like he was telling Ximen Mengdie about his decision.
It was more like he wanted to prove his determination to the woman behind him. No matter who he met tomorrow, he would never give in again.
No matter what, you have to let the other person look back once, and you have to move forward.
The woman behind him sighed and said leisurely: "I also feel amazing. This is not the first time I have been here, and this is the first time I have been blocked by someone..."
Li Xiuyuan quietly released his consciousness, wanting to feel the woman's breath.
However, after his hard work, he was as disappointed as the old man yesterday, and he no longer insisted on whether the woman in front of him was a monk, a monster, or a mortal.
Ximen Mengdie, who was following behind him, said, "The most difficult thing in life is to know how to advance and retreat."
Ximen Mengdie said directly: "Master, what you mean is that we can turn back yesterday and turn back again today. If there are still people blocking the way tomorrow, we won't turn back?"
The crow was silent for a long time and whispered, "I seem to understand."
The woman behind him followed suit and said, "It seems that the young master is indeed a good man who knows how to advance and retreat. I was worried just now that you wanted me to turn around and walk again."
Li Xiuyuan sighed and said in a solemn voice: "Senior is right, but as a human being, it is impossible to look back on everything."
Ximen Mengdie thought for a while and asked, "Master, how can we determine when we can return and when we will not?"
Li Xiuyuan was silent for a moment and said, "I don't seem to be sure. If you encounter such a situation in the future, you can try to see your current mood."
Crow was startled when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask: "It depends on my mood, what if I am in a bad mood at that time?"
Shaking his head, Li Xiuyuan replied word for word: "Then don't look back."
The group of people silently turned back towards the mountains and forests.
The woman came slowly behind Li Xiuyuan and Xiao Mengdie without asking.
Who was the old man they met yesterday?
Perhaps in her opinion, it was not easy for the two people in front of her to make way for her.
According to the rules of the world, she, who is not yet an old man, should actually make way for the blind boy and turn around on her own.
But he didn't expect that the young man in front of him, whose face was covered with a piece of black cloth, pulled the girl back.
So, the woman following behind had no choice but to say, "I wonder why you two are doing this? Are you trying to find some magic medicine?"
Xiao Ling'er was about to answer, but Li Xiuyuan replied first: "I have a disease in my eyes, and I just want to find a magical medicine to cure it..."
In his opinion, this side of the world is just a passing passer-by to him.
Whether it was the old man before, the green dragon encountered in the mountains, or the woman in front of him, there was no need to leave any cause and effect.
The woman sighed and murmured to herself: "I don't know any medical skills, otherwise I can take care of the young master."
Li Xiuyuan, who was walking in front, paused hesitantly, and then continued to move forward. Perhaps in his heart, the woman's polite words made him see a touch of warmth in the world.
Just like the most popular saying in Fengyun City back then, whenever a friend comes to visit, the host will definitely say a kind word when the friend is about to leave.
Although some people do take these kind words seriously, there are also enthusiastic hosts who bravely swallow them.
That is: "Look, it's getting dark, so don't leave. I'll kill the old hen that lays eggs for you..."
Li Xiuyuan had not heard this from Tang Chao and Hu Ge, because he rarely went to their homes, and in the academy, the two guys did not have their turn to go to his own home for dinner.
Therefore, the three of them have never been so polite.
Only her mother, Ye Zhiqiu, would tease Tang Chao and Hu Ge's mothers about this from time to time, as a joke after dinner.
At that time, it was not easy for Li Xiuyuan to hear a joke from his mother.
Today, when I heard the woman behind me say the same thing again, I knew it was impossible, but I still couldn't help but sigh.
When people in the world are helpless in the face of God, they will occasionally find a way to have fun to comfort themselves.
Ximen Mengdie seemed to have never thought about this matter. Today, when he heard the woman behind him mentioning his master's eyes, he couldn't help but ask: "Master, what should I do with your eyes?"
Crow shook his head and almost fell off when he heard the senior sister's words while lying on Li Xiuyuan's shoulder.
He quickly grabbed Li Xiuyuan's clothes, looked at Ximen Mengdie and said with a smile: "Sister, are you curious? I think I have to ask God about this..."
In Crow's eyes, Li Xiuyuan had treated countless people, but could not cure his own eyes, so he could only resign himself to fate.
Li Xiuyuan nodded gently.
He smiled at Ximen Mengdie and said, "I'm used to it. When God is happy every day, he will naturally give me back my light."
He still couldn't figure out why he didn't cry blind when Wu Xin died. Later, when his sister Yueying went to Wangchuan, he didn't go blind. So when his brother Yelu Qi died, he just vomited a mouthful of blood...
But because of his two disciples, and because of Ximen Xiaoyu, he would become blind with blood and tears in one day.
A pair of shoes once again measured the length of the stone slab under my feet, but I was thinking about what Ximen Xiaoyu looked like when he was learning piano from me in the wine shop.
It seemed as if he saw the little girl sitting under the eaves, playing the piano to herself, and asking him how to avoid hearing the sound of wind and rain.
And focus on your own piano sound...
Walking, walking, for no reason, Li Xiuyuan vomited a mouthful of blood again, and the blood instantly stained the stone slabs under his feet, scaring Xiao Mengdie into screaming.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
"Senior sister, when you mention his sadness...be careful what you say in the future."
Wu Wu had followed Li Xiuyuan all the way from the Victory Pass, and he had never seen him sad, and he rarely even frowned.
But he vomited a few mouthfuls of blood and shed a few bloody tears in the wilderness. Although it didn't quite understand this, it also knew that it must have something to do with the two senior sisters.
close.
But the problem is, how can blindness be cured so easily? Others don't know it, but Crow knows that Li Xiuyuan has preserved apricot meat from Yiluoxia Mountain.
There is also spiritual wine... Although there are not many spiritual medicines, it can also find some in this mountain forest.
As long as Li Xiuyuan opens his mouth, Crow will give it to him without hesitation.
The woman following behind was also startled. She obviously did not expect that the young man walking in front actually spurted out a mouthful of blood as he walked.
She was so frightened that she quickly asked: "If the young master is not in good health, you might as well rest one night in the mountains before continuing on your journey."
A gentle mountain breeze blew in his face, caressing Li Xiuyuan's face. He took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
He sighed and said, "Yes, I need to rest for a while."
He listened to the old man's obsession last night and wondered what kind of story the woman behind him would tell him today.
Xiao Mengdie held one of the master's hands and whispered: "Master, why don't you go find the green dragon? She must have the elixir."
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Don't disturb her from studying Buddhist scriptures. I'm not sick and I don't need any magic medicine."
Crow thought for a while and smiled strangely: "It seems that I have to find some more food and continue to bake it at night."
Upon hearing this, Xiaodie'er narrowed her eyes and smiled: "I like it too."
This time, Li Xiuyuan's pace slowed down a lot, not because of the woman behind him, but because in his opinion, since he decided to rest for another day, there was no need to rush on.
As a result, when they returned to rest under the tree yesterday, it was already near the end of the day.
At this time, he didn't have the energy to cook porridge anymore, so he just ate some dry food he brought with him from Ding'an City.
However, Ximen Mengdie was clever and gave some dry food to the women she met.
The woman didn't mind it, but tore a piece of the cake she brought and gave it to Xiao Mengdie.
The little girl who was eating nodded and looked at Li Xiuyuan and said, "Master, Die'er has never eaten such delicious cakes before."
Looking at it, Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said softly: "Is it possible that you, like Xiaohong, will also be a shopkeeper in the future?"
The wine shop and the brocade clothing shop were given to the matchmaker and the couple. In the coming years and months, they may be busy... Thinking about it now, Li Xiuyuan regretted it a little.
I should have persuaded the eldest sister to sell the Jinyifang and leave only a wine shop.
The woman ate dry food and bread and rested under the tree. Like the old man yesterday, she was not in a hurry to leave.
Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and asked the crow to take Ximen Mengdie to hunt nearby, and warned the little girl not to run too far, so as not to cause trouble and he would not be able to take action in time.
Just as Li Xiuyuan lit a fire and boiled water, the green dragon who was practicing Buddhist scriptures on the mountain stream flew down and came to where Li Xiuyuan was.
I thought to myself that God had pity on me and made the young man look back again.
Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but smile when he heard the whistling sound in the wind. He looked at the sad-looking Qingjiao and said, "Is it possible that you have forgotten it again?"
Qingjiao placed the processed yellow sheep he had brought next to Li Xiuyuan.
He sighed and said, "This guy fell down into the mountain stream early in the morning. I was thinking that I haven't learned how to barbecue with my husband yet."
This guy is smarter than a crow. Not only did he not talk about Buddhist scriptures, he also brought food for everyone in the evening.
Li Xiuyuan sighed softly and said, "It's not easy to survive in this jungle world."
Qingjiao took the opportunity and said, "Then please have mercy on me, sir, and explain the sermon to me again... I have been thinking hard, but I still forgot a few words."
Li Xiuyuan greeted the crows in the mountains and asked the two little guys to come back quickly.
Then he took out the cup and placed it on the stone platform in front of him, listening to the sound of spring water in the pot, and said softly: "In this case, I will read it to you again."
