Chapter Ninety-Five: The Top of the Mountain
For the latest free chapters of this book, please visit wèn. When you actually arrive at your destination. It's been three days. When you set foot on land. Xiang Yantian took a deep breath. I feel like I've been given a new lease of life. The days in the cabin were really not for people.
The weather has been unusually sunny for the past three days. Therefore, Xiang Yantian spends a large part of his time outside the cabin. It's nothing to stay outside the cabin during the day. What really bothered her was the night. When huddled in the cabin. I've been on board for days. But she just couldn't adapt to life at sea.
The wooden boat gently leaned against the pier that could not be called a pier. Xiang Yantian impatiently let Yan Qing help him out of the cabin. She's fed up with those kind of ghost days.
It's a small island. She was able to clearly see the sea at the end of the island. Look around. There's no land left around. In the middle of the endless sea. The tiny island seems lonely.
The sparrows are small. All organs. The same is true for this small island. The entire island is submerged in a lush forest. Among them, there is no shortage of lakes, rivers, birds and animals. In the middle of the island is a surprisingly tall mountain. Xiang Yantian could even see a faint cloud mist swirling around the tip of the mountain.
"Let's go down." was held by Yan Qing's arm. Xiang Yan pouted and said. There was a hint of eagerness in his tone. And then. She lifted the corner of her skirt and was about to step off the boat.
But. She didn't expect Yan Qing to pick her up suddenly.
Exclaimed. Xiang Yantian hurriedly closed his eyes and hugged Yan Qing tightly. Then I heard the sound of footsteps falling to the ground. Wait until she opens her eyes. Find yourself on the island. The nasty wooden boat has been left far behind.
After a gust of wind. Lin Hao, who was dressed in blue, also fell behind steadily. He had a playful smile on his face. Bared his teeth and said, "Xiao Yan'er. I haven't seen you for a few days, how did you become such a timid girl. Even flying in the sky for a moment will make you scream in fear."
Faced with Lin Hao's banter. Xiang Yantian did not refute. Just glared at him angrily.
These days. She found that the poison in her was not as strong as she had imagined. She didn't even feel the slightest pain. It's just that the poison comes slowly, but it doesn't mean it's mild. Just a few days. Xiang Yantian felt that the strength in his body seemed to be losing little by little. The bones of the body are becoming weaker and weaker. Don't say use of force. Even walking like a normal person is a little overwhelmed.
The body is weak. And the courage also grew. Right now. She felt as if she were an old man in the twilight of her life. Every step of the way. Be scared every time you move. Fear of falling.
On the way to walk. Xiang Yan looked around. The island doesn't look like it's inhabited at all. The brow couldn't help but frown slightly.
Xu is worried about Xiang Yantian's body. Yan Qing's pace is not fast. Every step is solid. Try not to feel the slightest vibration to Xiang Yantian in her arms. And because of that. It's been a long journey.
There was silence for a long time. Xiang Yantian finally couldn't help but say the question in his heart. Lying in Yan Qing's arms. She tugged at the placket of his shirt. Raise your head. "I don't think the island is populated. Where do you usually live?"
Yan Qing didn't speak. He just pointed in the direction above his head.
Look in the direction of Yan Qing's finger. It is a high and upright cliff. At the top of the cliff is an ethereal mist. Unknowingly. They have come to the middle of the island. Beneath that towering mountain.
Living on the top of the mountain, Xiang Yantian suddenly felt a little surprised. But then a handsome and somewhat bewitching face appeared in my mind. for the man also dwelt on the top of the mountain. It's just that the mountain is far less steep than this mountain.
The mountain in front of me is more like a huge rock jutting out of the ground. The bare rock walls reach into the sky. There is not a single tree. Only a few vines and grasses grow in the cracks.
"Where's the way up the mountain?" Seeing that Yan Qing was standing here and didn't move. Xiang Yantian couldn't help but ask.
"It's right here." Lin Hao smiled and pointed to the cliff in front of him.
Over here. Xiang Yantian suddenly felt a little surprised. It's just a cliff. She searched around but couldn't find a way.
"Senior Brother Lin. Your wounds are not healed. Don't rush up there." Yan Qing glanced at the towering cliff. Road.
Lin Hao was not convinced: "Hey. You look down on your brother, don't you?"
Yan Qing just smiled. Then he took Xiang Yan and flew towards the cliff. His light work is more refined than it was four years ago. Just one step to jump to a very high level. Just when he reached the apex and was about to fall. I stepped on something. And then it jumped to a new height.
"Bang. Bang. Bang......"
Xiang Yantian's ears kept echoing with the sound of impact. It was the sound of Yan Qing stepping on a wooden stake. Then. Only then did she realize that the road they were talking about was actually a stake embedded in a crevice in the cliff. It's just that. This cliff is like a huge rock. There aren't many gaps in it. There are even fewer that can be embedded in wooden stakes. Looking high into the sky. Each stake is at least a foot apart. This is where the road is. It is clearly a test of people's light skills.
The wind is whistling in my ears. Although Yan Qing's speed is extremely fast. But Xiang Yantian didn't feel scared. Slender wrists climbed up his neck. She didn't make any noise. Just lying in his arms. Silently gazing at his handsome face.
Yan Qing's light skills are also extremely high. Despite the fast speed. But it still didn't make Xiang Yantian in his arms feel half uncomfortable. Hundreds of feet high peaks reach into the sky. But for him, it seems like a small scene in his own yard. Come and go as you please. It's just a cup of tea. He carried Xiang Yantian to the top of the mountain.
"Here we are."
This time. There is no need for Yan Qing to remind. Xiang Yantian also knew that he had arrived at the top of the mountain. Looking. I found that Lin Hao hadn't come up yet. She wasn't surprised. After all, he was so badly injured a few days ago.
The area of the summit is not very vast. There is no such grandeur as a general sect. The whole top of the mountain is grass and trees except for the rocks. The only things that have really been artificially carved are the small wooden houses scattered all over the place.
Gaze swept over the surrounding landscape. Yan Qing's eyes showed a hint of amazement: "When I left this watchful island, I didn't say goodbye to my master and his old man. Now that I'm back here, I'd better see him first."
Since ancient times, filial piety has come first. She had heard that the brothers and sisters "over there" seemed to be orphans. Raised by green pine. Case. It was also natural for Yan Qing to go to see Master.
