Chapter 44: The Seventh Day of the Seventh Month
Besides, Wang Tui and Liu Chang went out and quickly walked out of the village along the mountain trail.
At this time, the sunset is still showing half of its face, and the cool breeze is blowing, making people feel so refreshed.
"This place is really good, the air is fresh, and it's a good place to maintain health," seeing Liu Chang's melancholy affection, Wang Tui had nothing to say.
Liu Chang glanced at him, a smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, and quickly disappeared, lowering his head slightly, still silent.
The mountain path is rugged, and the exposed stones on the road are smooth and glowing. The people here are carrying a big bamboo basket on their shoulders, all the things are on their backs, and a basket full of melons, fruits and vegetables, how to say that there are also 180 pounds, but looking at them on their backs, it seems that they are not heavy at all, the pace is steady, the expression is relaxed, they met, and greeted them, their faces were full of smiles.
Liu Chang spoke to them in the local dialect, but Wang Tui didn't understand very well, they spoke too fast, like jumping beans out of their mouths, often half-understood.
The people in the mountains were hospitable, and they all talked to him. He only smiled on his chin, not only was he not disgusted by the loud voices of the mountain people, but he also had a feeling of returning to the basics.
The afterglow of the setting sun flashed out from the gap between the two mountains, coming and going, and the cry of a cuckoo made the mountain even quieter. The people had returned home after a day's work, and a long path was hidden in the mountains, looking empty.
The terraced fields on both sides of the ravine are scattered, and the ridges are all made of gravel blocks, "How much effort does it take, the people in the mountains are really diligent," Wang Tui said, pointing to the ridges.
"What's the solution, let's live in general," Liu Chang sighed.
"Well," Wang Tui immediately agreed, "the people in the mountains are miserable, and it's not worth much effort for a piece of land the size of a palm." ”
"I'm not afraid of the hardships of life, I'm afraid of the bitterness in my heart," Liu Chang said, his eyes were misty with tears, and he turned his head again to hide his emotions.
Wang Tui gently pulled her, Liu Chang covered his mouth with his hand, blinked his big eyes, two huge tears rolled down, and quickly fell on his shoulder and cried.
Wang Tui hugged her tightly and whispered, "Don't worry, I won't let her have a good time in the future." ”
Liu Chang burst into tears for a while, his mood calmed down, and he twitched his delicate nose vigorously and said, "Forget it, people are powerful and powerful, we can't afford to hide from it." ”
"What is it called can't be provoked, evil has evil retribution, you believe me. ”
"You must not do stupid things, it is a critical time, if you are not careful, everything will be in vain, or bear it, I can't affect you. ”
"What are you talking about, a man can't protect his beloved woman, but he is still a man. ”
"You mean I'm your beloved woman?" Liu Chang stared at him.
"Isn't it, is there something wrong with this, you can't see it?" Smooth shook his head.
"You're such a little fool. Wang Tui smiled and nodded her nose, "Liu Chang, to be honest, we are not young anymore, and when it is time to talk about marriage, I originally thought that when I have political capital, I will marry you into the family in a beautiful way." It seems that after mixing in officialdom for a long time, I have been dizzy and have fallen into the magic circle of official career. What is the relationship between love and status? The elevation of status does not mean that love will also rise, isn't there a lot of sweet love in the countryside, why do you have to decorate it. ”
"I don't understand what you're saying. I just know that it's not easy for you to get to this point, so you have to cherish it. ”
Wang Tui nodded, "I understand your thoughts. Actually, I'm not enthusiastic about being an official, and I've come to this point by mistake, telling you that I am already the county magistrate of Ying County. Life, it's really elusive, yesterday it was unattainable, but now I suddenly got it, and the situation is really tricky. ”
Liu Chang looked at him, smiled with satisfaction, and sorted out the clothes on his chest, "I knew that you would get it," he said, looking very melancholy, "Fortunately, I didn't hinder you, so I feel at ease, thank you for coming to see me." Actually, you don't have to come, and I don't deserve it. ”
"What are you talking about? You are not allowed to say this again in the future," Wang Tui looked very dissatisfied, "Don't worry, I will never let you suffer the slightest grievance in the future, I swear!"
Liu Chang looked at him, choked up again, and his eyes were misty with tears.
Wang Tui gently tried to tears for her, and kissed her forehead gently. Liu Chang also seemed to have a kind of longing, raised his face, sounded like he was breathing rapidly, and his petal-like lips trembled slightly, like a lotus flower beating in the rain.
Wang Tui slowly leaned up, and when the lips of the two were glued together, he heard a foolish laugh passing by. The two were startled and hurriedly separated. It was two peasant women who passed by with large bamboo baskets on their backs. He had already walked over, and he turned his head to look at them with a smile and waved at them.
Liu Chang immediately blushed, hurriedly got rid of Wang Tui, and held his hair with both hands to hide the uneasiness in his heart.
Wang Tui watched the peasant woman walk away, and looked at Liu Chang with a smile, "At a critical time, it seems that the mountains are not quiet," he said, taking her hand and walking forward.
Liu Chang's mood suddenly improved, he held Wang Tui's hand tightly, the flush on his face gradually disappeared, and he returned to his former charm.
"Come back with us later," Mr. Wang said.
"It's better to stay for one night, the road in the mountains is not easy to walk at night. ”
"Then," Wang Tui looked at her, "it's okay." ”
As the sky darkened, a high mountain in front of it blocked the afterglow of the setting sun. The two stopped at the foot of the mountain. Halfway up the mountain, it is surrounded by clouds and mist, and when you look at the top of the mountain, you can vaguely see that there is no mountain tip, as if a large round ashlar has been pressed on it, and it looks straight and smooth, as if someone has polished it.
"This is called Yuquan Gu, how high it is, no one in the village can say it, and no one has ever gone up, it is the best woodcutter and hunter in the village, come up in the middle of the night to climb the mountain, until the sunset will go to the bottom of Gu, and then there is no way to go, just like a knife to cut the general, not to mention people, even the spirit monkey in the mountain can not climb up. ”
"Really?" Wang Tui looked at Yuquangu and became interested.
I heard Liu Chang murmur again: "I heard that it is the jade spring pool of the Queen Mother of the West, on the seventh day of July every year, the Queen Mother of the West and her daughters come here to bathe, and at the same time sprinkle nectar on the mountain while bathing. ”
"yes, you mean you don't usually see it?"
Liu Chang nodded, and suddenly asked, "By the way, what day is today?"
"I'll check," Wang Tui hurriedly took out his mobile phone, "there is no signal at all," he said, fiddling with his mobile phone, and immediately surprised, "It's really the seventh day of the seventh month." ”
"Really?" Liu Chang was also pleasantly surprised, "It seems to be providence," she glanced at Wang Tui affectionately.
Wang Tui was still excited, "So, tonight, the Queen Mother of the West and her daughters came back to bathe?"
"It's legendary. ”
"It's a miracle, well, let's go and see. ”
Liu Chang sneered at him, "Sometimes you're really a child, that's just a legend." Besides, the mountain is so high, we are afraid that we will not be able to climb it until tomorrow, even if we climb to the bottom of the valley, there are still a few hundred meters from the valley, and we have not grown wings, how can we go up?"
Listen to me, if there are really immortals in the world, as long as we are sincere, they will definitely bring us up. ”
"Hey, wake up, are you dreaming?" Liu Chang was amused by him, and stretched out his hand to shake it in front of her.
Wang Tui grabbed her hand, "Even if we have a yellow dream, listen to me, hug my neck tightly, close your eyes, no matter what happens, don't open it, you open it again when I want you to open it." ”
Liu Chang didn't know what tricks he was going to play, looking at his serious appearance, he didn't want to ruin his fun, he laughed loudly, nodded at him again, and really put his hands around his neck tightly, put his head on his broad chest, closed his eyes and enjoyed what the woman thought in her heart.
When she finished all this, she felt Wang Tui hugging her waist tightly, and suddenly felt as if her feet were rebounding by a huge force, and there was only the sound of whirring wind in her ears. She felt a little difficult to breathe, and she was cold. Before she could understand how it could come, as if her feet were solid again, she hurriedly opened her eyes, and saw that Wang Tui was still closed, hugging her tightly, she was so frightened that she quickly closed her eyes, put her hands tightly around his neck, and even breathed carefully......
