Chapter 584: The Vast Snow Field (6)
At dusk, the group arrived at a low valley after passing through the magnificent river canyon, looked at the surrounding scenery, stopped and began to camp.
Ahead, the river is gentle and wide, surrounded by rolling hills and lush vegetation under the snow.
If it weren't for the snow, the scenery would be almost indistinguishable from that of the hinterland of Middle-earth.
After setting up the tent felt bag, Ouyang Zeming and Luo Caisai Golang went to collect firewood, and the three maids of Yuchun also went to let off steam, and only Shen Nishang and Ling Feihuaxun were left in the camp.
Hua Xun found some dry wood nearby, lit a fire and began to boil water.
In the distance, Ouyang Zeming shouted Hua Xun's name in the forest, Hua Xun looked at Ling Fei, Ling Fei nodded, and Hua Xun went in the direction of the sound.
Shen Nishang came out of the felt bag, glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Ouyang called Hua Xun too?"
Ling Fei sat by the fire, threw a piece of firewood into it, nodded carelessly, and asked, "The water is boiled, drink some tea?"
Shen Nishang turned around and went into the felt bag to get the tea set and tea leaves.
The tea set is made of bamboo, and after the tea is brewed, it has a refreshing taste unique to bamboo.
It's a different flavor.
"Did it yourself?" Ling Fei took a sip and raised the bamboo cup to measure it.
Shen Nishang nodded: "Yuchun, they learned a few hands from Brother Sai, and let them think about it, this is convenient." ”
Lightweight and not afraid of breaking.
Before the group set off, they prepared thick leather jackets, in order not to be eye-catching, although the texture of the leather jacket was the best, but the style and color were indeed extremely ordinary.
But even this slightly bulky style looks very good on Shen Nishang.
The dull color set off the delicate face like snow, and a pair of apricot eyes were black and shiny, as clear as two black crystals soaked in ice water under the silver moonlight.
Shen Nishang took a sip of tea with a bamboo cup, and under the light of the fire, in the white mist, her long curly eyelashes trembled slightly.
Ling Fei retracted his gaze and lowered his head: "There are still a few days left...... Do you think we'll find it?"
"I don't know. Shen Nishang sighed and stretched out a soft wattle to roast the fire, "Actually, I'm quite scared." ”
"Scared?" Ling Fei was a little surprised.
Along the way these days, Shen Nishang has always been calm and comfortable, and she seems to be in a good mood.
He really couldn't see the word "scared".
"Hmm. Shen Nishang raised her eyes and smiled at him, "Natural danger is unstoppable, so you will naturally be afraid." We went to Tianzhu Mountain, the snow field is 2,000 zhang, and the highest point of Tianzhu Mountain is almost 3,000 zhang. Nowadays, although there are some clues, in fact, they are very slim, how can they not be afraid? Just know that it is useless to be afraid, so there is no need to show it. ”
"Are you afraid that you won't be able to find the Holy Lotus Seed and won't be able to save your wife?" Ling Fei looked at her.
"I'm afraid of this, and I'm afraid that everyone will be in danger. Shen Nishang glanced at the mountains and forests in the distance, "...... It's my business. ”
Ling Fei understood.
Shen Nishang was afraid of affecting others.
"It's not just for you, I'm here by command. Ling Fei raised his eyebrows, "Even if it weren't for your wife's business, if I knew about my great-grandfather, I would definitely go through this situation." ”
Shen Nishang smiled when she heard this, she could see that Ling Fei was telling the truth.
According to Ling Fei's temperament, if he knew Ling Wen's story, it was really possible.
But you can't say that.
If it weren't for the fact that she wanted to save Madam Si, Elder Ling would never have easily revealed this family secret to Ling Fei.
At least, not at this time.
"Your great-grandfather...... A rare temperament. Shen Nishang said.
But the Great Elder hated him. Ling Fei replied lightly.
Shen Nishang was stunned.
"Really. Ling Fei hooked his lips lightly, "He has never been married in his life, he is atoning for his great-grandfather's sins, and he doesn't agree with what his great-grandfather did." ”
Atonement?
Shen Nishang thought about it, and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
However, in addition to the family, there should be part of the reason because Ling Wen left behind not only family responsibilities, but also his wife and children.
As an outsider, Shen Nishang couldn't comment on Ling Wen's choice.
There are some things in the world that are like this, and there is no one way to do it.
One choice is destined to be a betrayal and a disservice to another.
"What about you, do you agree?" Shen Nishang asked Ling Fei.
Ling Fei was silent for a moment, and then said, "Even if it is a life-saving grace, it can be for the sake of a border clan...... If it was, I probably shouldn't have thought it would, but now it'...... Sometimes I feel that the border people are cleaner than us Middle-earthers. ”
Shen Nishang looked at him and smiled, but didn't speak.
"You seem to be in a good mood lately?" Ling Fei raised his eyebrows, a little bit like a smile, "I almost turned my face and didn't recognize people before, are you women so fickle?"
Ling Fei smiled and looked at Shen Nishang lazily.
"It was my rudeness. Shen Nishang avoided the conversation, smiled and apologized, and then looked at it frankly, "I was too caught off guard at that time, and I thought too much." ”
"That kid from Changsheng knows, and Shaohan also knows, but he doesn't want me to know-" Ling Fei paused, raised his eyes and smiled faintly, "It seems that the last thing you believe is me." ”
Looking up half-smiling, the phoenix eyes were sharp.
Shen Nishang choked slightly.
Ling Fei asked directly, and for a while she was really a little difficult to answer.
In fact, this question is not only related to the identity of Mrs. Si.
Mrs. Si is a mixed-race border clan.
And so did she.
She originally had only one secret that she would never be humane for the rest of her life, but she didn't expect that there was another one on this body.
One is the secret of the soul.
One is the secret of the body.
Compared to the former, the latter will obviously make her more uneasy.
The night she first found out, she hadn't slept well.
Don't trust?
Maybe a little.
Before that, she had never revealed Mrs. Si's identity to anyone.
Even Luo Cai's place, never.
If she had a choice, she might have kept it hidden forever.
Even Mu Qing and Zhang Shaohan didn't know it from her.
But this ...... It's also not about trust.
"Am I having a hard time getting along with?" Shen Nishang asked, but she didn't mean to let Ling Fei answer, she smiled lightly, her eyelashes drooped slightly, and she came to a conclusion, "Actually, I know that I have not liked since I was a child. Except for the people closest to me, not many people like me. ”
Ling Feijun was stunned and opened his mouth to speak, but Shen Nishang lowered his eyes and smiled, and continued.
Ling Fei closed his mouth and only looked at her quietly.
"I don't care if others like it or not, anyway, the people I care about the most don't dislike it, what do other people do to me? For so many years, I have lived this way. Shen Nishang lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, "Later, I met Madame." She told me that sometimes I had to learn how to make quails...... She taught me many truths that no one had ever told me before. She said I was bold, but I was far less daring than her. It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I'm used to the old way of living, and I want to learn more from my wife, but ...... I don't know if there is a chance. ”
