The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled all over the land, and the clouds in the sky were also dyed a brilliant red, and the string of clouds that looked like sugar gourds had already been blown away by the wind, and I don't know what form they had changed into and where they had drifted to.

Hu Yu held Hu Yueling in one hand and a hare in the other, and finally climbed to the top of Tongtian Peak, just happened to see the sun slowly setting in the sky, hiding behind the mountain at the end of the sight.

Hu Yu took a deep breath of some refreshing air from the peak, and the familiar smell of the mountains returned.

Standing on the top of the peak and looking down at the earth, it is completely different from what you see by the lake, looking down from the peak, the Tianshui Lake, which is not too big, is like a small mirror at this time, reflecting the red glow of the sky.

"There's a rock, let's go there and sit down and rest for a while. Hu Yu pulled Hu Yueling and walked towards the edge of the cliff.

Next to the steep cliff, there is a stone block for two people to sit side by side, the smooth and flat surface, as if it has been polished, specially used for resting, and the place where the stone is located is just right to have a beautiful view of the peak.

Reaching out and touching the stone, there was still residual heat from the sun, Hu Yu said: "This stone is sensible." ”

Hu Yueling asked puzzledly, "What do you mean?"

Hu Yu pulled Hu Yueling to sit down, and then asked, "Is the temperature still right?"

Hu Yueling nodded, still looking at Hu Yu with a puzzled expression.

"Hehe, look, it knows that we are coming, first of all, it flattens itself out, and it is hot, so as not to be embarrassed, and ice our buttocks, and then it stops in just the right position, and then we go forward and we sit on it unsteadily, afraid of falling off the cliff, and take a step back and can't see the beautiful scenery under the cliff, do you say this is a sensible stone." ”

In the process of mountaineering, Hu Yu found that Hu Yueling had been silent and not very interested, and originally thought that her mind had not been completely recovered, so she seemed a little in a trance.

But after Hu Yu's careful care, Hu Yu felt that it was not like that, and Hu Yueling was more like she was reluctant to speak, so Hu Yu kept gagging, hoping to relieve her.

However, all this Hu Yu did had no effect, and after Hu Yueling said a soft "oh", she sat on the stone, looked at the sky stupidly, and fell into deep thought.

Although Hu Yu was a little worried, he didn't think much about it, smiled lightly, and then began to prepare their dinner.

In addition to a hare caught during the climb, Hu Yu also picked a lot of wild vegetables along the way, peeled and washed the hare, stuffed all those wild vegetables into the belly of the hare, and then set up a fire and began to make wild vegetables and roast rabbit meat.

Hu Yu used to do this often when he was in Yaowang Mountain, and the aroma of wild vegetables soaked into the meat, coupled with the spices he specially blended, the roasted rabbit meat was tender and silky, which made people appetizing.

But it's a pity that Hu Yu doesn't have spices on his body today, and he can't make the perfect fragrance that he thinks, but even so, the hare and wild vegetables are also natural and delicious, and they have a unique flavor to eat.

The colorful glow on the horizon performed the last dance music, faded its gaudy coat, and returned to the plain, and a crescent moon quietly climbed into the sky, swimming among the stars, like the emperor of the night.

The top of Tongtian Peak was full of flames and fragrance, Hu Yu pulled out the knife on his foot and cut off the fat rabbit leg, and the fat from the meat dripped into the fire, making a crackling sound, as if celebrating a delicious meal about to be baked.

Hu Yu handed the knife with a rabbit leg in his hand to Hu Yueling, and said, "Ling'er, you have drunk a bowl of gruel in the past three days, you are hungry, come and taste my craftsmanship." ”

Hu Yueling took the knife, put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed, a fragrance entered along the nostrils, which made people appetite great, gently blew the skin, took a small bite of the roasted crispy yellow rabbit meat, and kept chewing in her mouth.

"It was delicious. Hu Yueling said lightly.

"Really?" Hu Yu also tore off a rabbit leg, tasted the taste, and continued: "Without my unique material bag, the taste is really much worse. ”

Even though it was early summer, the peak at night was still a cool breeze, seeing that Hu Yueling didn't answer, just quietly eating rabbit legs, Hu Yu continued: "Let's go back after eating the barbecue, it's windy at night, be careful of catching a cold." ”

Hu Yueling bit off the last piece of shredded meat on the rabbit leg, then handed the knife back to Hu Yu, and said, "The starry sky is so beautiful tonight, I want to sit here all night." ”

Hu Yu cut off another rabbit leg and handed it to Hu Yueling, but Hu Yueling shook her head lightly and said, "You eat, I'm already full." ”

Hu Yu frowned, put the rabbit leg back on the fire rack, then put the knife aside, sat next to Hu Yueling, and asked, "Ling'er, are you okay?"

Without answering Hu Yu's question, Hu Yueling raised her head, looked up at the starry sky, her thoughts seemed to drift to a very far place, and after a long time, she said faintly: "Have you carefully observed this starry sky?"

Hu Yu looked up, maybe because of the rain and sunny weather, tonight's night sky was extraordinarily transparent, and the stars in the sky were dense, all of them were constantly flickering, which Hu Yu had never seen before.

"There are more stars today than in the past?" Hu Yu asked tentatively.

Hu Yueling shook her head with a smile, and asked again, "What about this round of crescent moon?

"The moon hasn't changed, today is the sixth day of the new month, and the moon should be like this. ”

After finishing speaking, Hu Yu reached out to Hu Yueling's forehead, felt Hu Yueling's body temperature with the back of his hand, and muttered to himself, "No fever?"

Hu Yueling did not stop Hu Yu's movements, but withdrew her gaze looking at the starry sky, gently leaned her head on Hu Yu's shoulder, and stared at Tianshui Lake not far away and said, "Do you remember what you said to me that day under the heavy rain?"

Hu Yu nodded, he knew what Hu Yueling said: "Of course I remember." ”

Hu Yueling said softly: "The sun and the moon will rise and set year after year, day after day, just like two people chasing each other, chasing each other all day long, but they can never catch up, because they all have their own responsibilities and cannot appear at the same time, all of this has a certain number." ”

These are all common sense, just like Hu Yu once said to Hu Yueling that the rain will eventually fall.

Hu Yueling stretched out her right hand, pointed to the brightest star in the sky and said: "But the stars in the sky are different, just like the brightest star, you can see it today, but will it still be there tomorrow? Maybe from now on, you will never see it again, all this can be called variable." ”

"Variables?" Hu Yu repeated softly, and said with some vague understanding: "Are you saying that our life is like a sky full of stars, full of variables?"

The same can be said. ”

Hu Yueling lowered her arms and closed her eyes, as if she was about to fall asleep in Hu Yu's arms.

From time to time there was a crackling sound from the fire next to it, and the grease of the hare kept dripping, and after being evaporated by the flames, the fragrance continued to float out and permeate the entire peak.

Hu Yu gently stroked Hu Yueling's hair, her expression was full of worry, today Hu Yueling is too strange, less innocent in the past, more sad and sorrowful, Hu Yu didn't understand what was wrong with her, she didn't solve her heart, but added a lot of confusion to herself.

A gust of mountain wind blew, a slight coolness hit, and the two people who were clinging to each other leaned tightly together, and they didn't say anything for a long time.

The fire has been extinguished, and the surface of the originally shiny and crisp yellow rabbit meat is already charred black, although the roast meat is full of fragrance, but neither of them seems to have an appetite, and let the fat hare turn into a small piece of charcoal.

"Hu Yu, if I leave suddenly one day, will you be sad and sad?"

I don't know how long it took, Hu Yueling's voice like a whisper came to Hu Yu's ears.

Hu Yu was taken aback, a chill invaded from head to toe, cold sweat instantly wet his back, and asked Hu Yueling in disbelief: "What did you say?"

Hu Yueling got up from Hu Yu's arms, looked up at the sky, and couldn't tell whether her voice was sad or cold: "I said I left, would you be sad and sad?"
