Early in the morning, on the outskirts of the city of withered leaves. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Whoosh"

Two people appeared, it was Ah Gui and Xinyue, and after Ah Gui handed over Na'er to her mother, she continued her journey!

Suddenly, the originally clear sky was cloudy and began to rain.

Ah Gui took off his coat and put it on Xinyue's head, and they ran forward, when Ah Gui saw that there was an inconspicuous cave in the mountain not far away.

"Xinyue, there's a cave over there, let's go there to hide from the rain." Gui and Xinyue quickly ran into the cave.

A fire was lit, and Gui and Xinyue were roasting their clothes, and at this time, with the help of the light of the fire, Gui discovered that there was an inconspicuous passage in this cave.

"Huh? Xinyue, there seems to be a passage here. Gui pointed to the passage and said to Xinyue. Xinyue looked closely and saw this passage as well.

Driven by the curiosity of adventure, Gui entered this passage, which was narrow and could only be passed by one person, with Gui in front and Xinyue following behind. After walking for dozens of years, the passage became wider, and a pair of small white eyes at the top suddenly opened.

Ah Gui only saw the small white eyes that came up hundreds of times, but Ah Gui immediately reacted, on the top of the cave, and it was still white eyes, isn't that a large-mouthed bat, because the supersonic bat has no eyes, and the eyes of the forked bat are earthy yellow, so Ah Gui concluded that these are all large-mouthed bats.

"Xinyue, get down." Ah Gui immediately said to Xinyue.

Ah Gui and Xinyue lay on the ground, and Ah Gui used his superpowers to condense a protective shield to cover himself and Xinyue. And the large-mouthed bats at the top of the passage were "buzzing ......" flying out of the hole, because the large-mouthed bats were poisonous Pokémon and were restrained by the super system, so they flew out and did not attack Gui and Xinyue.

After a cup of tea, the passage finally returned to calm, the protective cover was lifted, and Ah Gui and Xinyue got up from the ground, at this time they felt a little sour in their hearts, and their character was too bad! Hundreds of large-mouthed bats were encountered, but they kept walking.

After walking dozens of steps, Ah Gui and Xinyue saw a hole at the top of the passage, and a slanting sun shot into this hole. Underneath the mouth of the cave there was a pond with a few lotus flowers and a few lotus leaves. Dew drip from above the hole, and the dew drips on the lotus leaves, and when it accumulates to a certain extent, the lotus leaves tilt and pour the water into the pond. And the slanting sun shines on the lotus flower that has not yet opened, and the lotus flower blooms with dazzling light, although it is not open, but it is more beautiful than it opens.

Ah Gui and Xinyue came to the pond, the two felt that their mouths were dry, and they couldn't help but hold a pool of clear water, the two looked at their own reflection in the water, and then looked at the lotus flower that bloomed with dazzling light, and the two drank the pool of clear water.

The entrance, the water was so sweet, that the two of them instantly remembered the happy memories of the past in the time they stopped.

Sobering up from the memories, Ah Gui and Xinyue looked at each other, and both showed sincere smiles at each other, although neither of them spoke, but they were telling each other that they were happy to be with you.

Ah Gui and Xinyue move forward again in a sweet atmosphere!

After walking dozens of steps, Gui and Xinyue saw that there was one thing growing on the top of the passage, on the rock wall, and on the ground—medicine.

The air is filled with the smell of medicine, but the fragrance of medicine is bitter, Ah Gui and Xinyue feel a bitterness in their hearts when they take a breath, Ah Gui and Xinyue quickly retreat, at this time, Ah Gui saw in the passage! There are a few words engraved on the rock wall - the bitter sea is endless, and the shore is turned back.

Ah Gui looked at these eight words and said to Xinyue: "This should be a warning from the ancestors to the descendants, since this is the case, then turn back!" ”

Ah Gui and Xinyue walked back to the pond, and suddenly, Ah Gui stopped and looked at the sparkling water in the pond, as if he had figured something out, and said to Xinyue, "Let's go, let's keep walking." Xinyue didn't understand what Agui wanted to do, but she still followed him!

Ah Gui and Xinyue returned to the passage full of medicine, and Ah Gui looked at the rock wall engraved with "The bitter sea is endless, and the shore is back". At this time, Gui's right hand used his superpower to condense a sharp blade.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Ah Gui brandished a sharp blade to engrave words on the rock wall, and after carving, Xinyue looked at the four extra words on the rock wall, and immediately knew what Ah Gui wanted to do!

Gui and Xinyue walked forward, the bitterness in the air as if it was useless to them, and they continued to walk.

At this time, the medicine on the top was dripping like rain, and the medicine dripped on Ah Gui and Xinyue's lips, sliding from the lips into their mouths.

Agui remembered the pain of losing Na'er on the island of Asia; Rejoicing remembered the pain of waiting......

However, when those four words flashed through their minds, they regained their determined gaze and continued to walk......

After walking hundreds of steps and tasting hundreds of bitter tastes, finally, they came out, and at this time, the bitterness in their mouths seemed to be no longer bitter, but sweet, they looked at each other, smiled, and continued to move forward......

On the silent ancient road, overgrown with medicinal herbs, the bitterness in the air is unbearable, the dripping medicinal juice is even more penetrating bitterness, next to the eight big characters engraved with "the bitter sea is endless, turning back is the shore", quietly engraved with four big characters, these four big characters exude a kind of temperament, this temperament seems to be able to infect everything, these four big characters are - bitter and sweet.

After walking dozens of steps, Ah Gui and Xinyue felt that the temperature had risen a little, he continued to walk forward, and after walking dozens of steps, Ah Gui couldn't smile bitterly when he saw the scene in front of him.

On the ground of this passage, there are two kinds of Pokémon that sleep.

A Pokémon looks like a camel, but the two humps on its back are two volcanoes, with red skin, and the word 000 on the abdomen, which is the Pokémon of the Toyogen region - Charizard, in the illustrated book, its introduction is: There are small volcanoes in the body, and when you are angry, it will spew hot magma from the crater bulging on your back.

And another Pokémon looks like a turtle, but, its skin is brown, the turtle shell is coal-like black, and there are hexagonal holes in the turtle shell, and there is a burning red in the hole, this turtle-shaped Pokémon is the coal ghost of the Fengyuan region, and its introduction in the illustrated book is: The body burns charcoal to generate energy, and when it encounters danger, the nostrils and back will spew smoke, which makes the opponent overwhelmed.

Gui was surprised to see these two Pokémon here, but when they slept, they erupted with magma and smoke, which made Gui and Xinyue unable to see the road ahead, and the magma would burn themselves and provoke them to attack themselves.

Ah Gui watched for a while, and finally, he hugged Xinyue, and Xinyue was suddenly hugged by Ah Gui and blushed a little, and it became even redder under the effect of high temperature, as if it could drip blood.

And Ah Gui didn't care about this, after hugging Xinyue, he used his superpower to condense a protective shield, cover them in it, kick his right foot, and fly at a low altitude with Xinyue.

Although the smoke made them unable to see the road, Ah Gui could use spiritual detection to see the way, and the magma erupted one by one and sprayed on the protective cover.

At this time, another magma sprayed on the protective cover, and the protective cover was shrouded in fiery red, but it still did not break, and the magma splashed on a coal turtle, and the coal turtle felt something, woke up from the dream, and suddenly, it saw Ah Gui and Xinyue in the protective cover.

"Woo~"

It roared, and at this time, the fire-breathing camels and coal turtles in the entire passage stopped erupting magma and smoke, and woke up from their dreams, all looking at Gui and Xinyue with fierce eyes.

Gui and Xinyue can finally see the road, but when they see hundreds of fire-breathing camels and coal turtles staring at them, Gui and Xinyue know that they are miserable.

Both the fire-breathing camel and the coal turtle unleashed their jet flames at Ah Gui and Xinyue, and the already red rock wall that had been reflected was even redder now, and the hundreds of jet flames merged into a fire dragon, and this red dragon rushed towards Ah Gui and Xinyue.

Ah Gui was still calm, and when the fire dragon came to Ah Gui, he was still very calm.

"Boom~"

The red dragon slammed into the protective cover, setting off a puff of smoke, and the entire passage seemed to be in turmoil, and when the smoke cleared, Ah Gui and Xinyue in the air were gone! The fire-breathing camels and coal turtles thought they were hanging and went to sleep.

Somewhere in the channel

"Huh! It's exciting! Ah Gui laughed heartily, it turned out that the moment the red dragon hit the protective cover, Ah Gui used the escape magic technique - teleportation - to pass directly through that section of the passage.

"Hmmm! It's exciting. Do you want to stimulate it again. Xinyue said to Ah Gui with a "smile" on her face, making him so worried, but he was playing.

"Ugh! I was wrong! Let's move on! Ah Gui immediately admitted his mistake and rushed forward, but Xinyue could only follow helplessly.

After walking dozens of steps, Ah Gui and Xinyue saw that there was light in front of them, so they quickly ran forward, and finally, Ah Gui and Xinyue walked out of the passage.

It was dusk, and there was an old tree that had gone through the vicissitudes of time, and its branches were still wrapped around withered vines, and a few dark crows rested on it; There is a small river here, and there is a small bridge with a curve on the river, and there is a courtyard next to the small bridge; There is a wooden house in the courtyard, and in front of the wooden house, there is an ancient road, on which sleeps a flaming horse, enjoying the afterglow of the evening sun and the warm wind blowing from the west.

Ah Gui looked at this scene and couldn't help but say the first three lines of a poem: "Withered vines and old trees, faint crows, small bridges and flowing water, ancient roads and westerly winds and thin horses." ”

"Huh? Gui, what do you say? Xinyue didn't quite understand what Gui was saying.

"Huh! I didn't expect Xiaoyou to be so emotional! At this time, an old man appeared out of nowhere and said.

"What's next?" Ah Gui said straight to the point, after going through the previous events, Ah Gui found that this was actually a test.

"Huh! The last test is just a question: what is life? The old man said unhurriedly.

Ah Gui thought about all kinds of things before, looked at the scene in front of him and said: "Life is: sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty. ”

"Huh...... I didn't expect that I would live in seclusion here, and after many years, someone would solve my problem. Yes, this is for you. The old man was very satisfied with Ah Gui's answer, and handed Ah Gui and Xinyue a tree fruit that looked like a gourd.

"This fruit, called the Tumu fruit, can greatly improve the abilities of the elves. Go ahead! Passers-by have to get back to the road after all. ”

Less than half of the sun sank into the mountains, and under the afterglow, Ah Gui and Xinyue continued their journey.

At this time, Ah Gui said the last two lines of the poem: "The sun is setting, and the heartbroken man is at the end of the world." ”
