Qi Yun rested in the flowers for a long time, and then suddenly remembered what the head of the grade said about the four o'clock must go back to the foot of the mountain to gather, she glanced at her watch and found that it was almost three o'clock, and time passed so fast that she was secretly speechless. She hurriedly stood up, patted the dirt on her body, and planned to go down the mountain.

Qi Yun retreated to the forest where she came, carefully observing the surrounding environment, and couldn't help but be taken aback, and secretly screamed badly. It turned out that when he came first, Qi Yun first thought of Lu Wei, and then he was a little distracted, and then chased the little squirrel, and he was even more excited to get out of the road where "the more people walk, the road becomes the road", the woods on the high mountain are not dense, and she runs without obstacles, so that she leaves the channel unconsciously. At this time, I wanted to go to the forest to find the red cloth strip that the pathfinder in front of me had tied as a mark, but I couldn't find it, so I had to sigh. She took out her phone again, but after fiddling with it for a long time, there was no signal.

Fortunately, Qi Yun has a stubborn and optimistic nature. Unable to find the strip of red cloth, she simply walked in one direction according to her own judgment for about ten minutes, but she did not see the red strip of cloth, and she felt that the tree in the forest looked completely unfamiliar. She stopped, crossed her waist and watched for a moment, and finally to her dismay, the books in the forest looked almost the same. Her sixth sense, which she had always been proud of, vaguely reminded her that she had taken the wrong path. She paused and thought about it, then walked in another direction she thought was right.

But this time it was not as good as the first time, the road became narrower and narrower, and finally there was no place to put her feet, this time Qi Yun was sure that her direction was wrong again, and she also found out that the worse situation was that she could no longer find the wildflower bush where she had been sitting for a long time.

Qi Yun walked around and stopped alone in the woods, Rao was bold, and anxiety and fear were still slowly drilling from the bottom of her heart. At this moment, she remembered the words of the head of the grade - although she didn't want to think about them, but those words still got into her head one after another - the year before last, there were five rampage teams with compasses and professional clothes who went into the mountains and forests to explore, and they never came out again.

Thinking of this, Qi Yun's mind tightened. Could it be that Qi Yun, who is as beautiful as a flower and has unpaid ambitions, and can represent the new generation of good young people of the motherland, will also be like the unlucky rampaging team that can get in and out? That's unreasonable. Qi Yun absolutely couldn't accept such a fate, but the fact gave her a basin of cold water, that is, when she turned around in the forest like a headless fly for nearly two hours, and the watch hands were already pointing mercilessly to five o'clock, she had not yet found any way that could be called hope.

The western sky was already burning red, and Qi Yun knew that it would not be long before the terrifying night would fall quietly. The cold also slowly came with the darkness of the sky, and it ate at her will like maggots. In this situation, no matter how indomitable she is, she can't help but have a trace of desperate coolness from the bottom of her heart.

Qi Yun finally couldn't hold back his tears. But consider that tears are the most stupid liquid at this moment—not only are they of no use, but they deprive her of precious heat and break her will. So Qi Yun raised the back of his hand to wipe away his tears, and calmed down to carefully observe the surroundings. Her sixth sense, which had just failed due to impatience, had once again played some role, and she seemed to feel that the scenery around her was truly familiar! Confirming this made her heart happy, and her steps quickened.

At this point, Qi Yun understood that he couldn't catch up with the instructions of the head of the department at four o'clock anyway, but he didn't think about it anymore, and now he just wanted to get out of the predicament, no matter how angry the department head with a Mediterranean hairstyle was afterwards, no matter how much his parents reprimanded him when he went home, he couldn't care about it.

Next, the surrounding environment gave Qi Yun a stronger sense of familiarity, and Qi Yun suppressed the joy in his heart and walked faster and faster. She sped through the woods until she had made her way through a gap in one of the woods, and then she stood in shock and frustration, full of disbelief.

Is God playing a joke on her? She went around and around, and finally looked forward to a glimmer of dawn after nowhere to go, and when she got close to this glimmer of light, she found that she had returned to the wrong starting point, and now she stepped on it with great hope that it was the alfalfa field that had amazed her in the afternoon!

It was not for nothing that Qi Yun's will completely collapsed. Thinking that she Qi Yun has never owed God, although she is not usually pious, but she has never been disrespectful, not to mention that she is upright and upright, and she has always been law-abiding, no matter how you look at it, she should be a "God's beloved people", but why did such bad luck befall her?

This time, God seemed to have heard Qi Yun's belly slander immediately. It didn't take long for Qi Yun to see her "hope" on a natural boulder on the edge of the alfalfa flower field, it was not wrong to say that it was hope, but when she saw him, Qi Yun couldn't help but close her eyes for a moment, and she even wondered if she wanted to see him, or would she rather be trapped and die on this high mountain?

A figure Qi Yun was very familiar with stood on the huge stone. The dying sunset just cast light and shadow from the position where Lu Wei was standing, and the heavy golden red color set a golden edge on his figure, so his figure looked extraordinarily tall.

Although Qi Yun resisted in her heart, her instinct to survive prompted her to keep walking to Lu Wei's side, and Lu Wei certainly saw her at this time. He stood on the big rock, looking down at Qi Yun, and his originally handsome eyebrows and eyes were even more vibrant at this moment.

Qi Yun actually felt a wave of dizziness. She inexplicably remembered what she had told Zhuomei the other day: at a cocktail party in Argenqian in 1931, Consuelo went to the cloakroom to get his coat and was about to leave, but when he turned around, he suddenly bumped into a tall man, who wrote in his memoirs, "I had to look up at the sky to see him." ”

When Qi Yun realized that he was also looking up at Lu Wei with a demented face at this time, he immediately felt a chill in his heart, and regretted that he almost bit his tongue and committed suicide. Fortunately, Lu Wei didn't give her more time to remember and regret, and when he saw Qi Yun, he immediately jumped down from the boulder, frowning and reprimanding her:

"If you are told not to climb the wild mountains, you just won't listen."

One of the things that Qi Yun hates most in her life is that others teach her, not even her favorite father, how old is Lu Wei? So she retorted without hesitation:

"I can climb if I like to, who cares about you? Besides, you didn't climb the wild mountain, why are you here? ”

Of course, she knew that the reason why Lu Wei appeared here was because of her, but when it came to the nonsense kung fu Qi Yun, if he recognized the second, who in the world would dare to be the first? Lu Wei couldn't say anything about her, so he only snorted from his nose, dropped the sentence "Follow me", and walked to the front.

"Hey, hey, don't just lift your legs and leave," Qi Yun dragged his sleeve, "Why don't you say that you also need to set the position and find the direction first?" …… By the way, my dad said that you can use your watch to identify the direction, oh, divide the time you are in by 2, and then point the quotient to the sun, and the direction of 12 on the dial is the north......"

While letting Lu Wei trot, Qi Yun stretched out his wrist to show Lu Wei the platinum-gold Longines watch on his wrist. She was really annoyed, she didn't even think of this "survival cheat" when she was alone just now, how could she be angry with Lu Wei, and her IQ suddenly increased? It seems that she is really a motivational talent.

"Tsk," Lu Wei was stumbled by her, and asked disdainfully, "Miss, where do you see the sun now?" ”

Qi Yun glanced up at the sky, and a fiery cloud immediately hung on his face. At this moment, the sun has officially set behind the mountain, and the sky is at the junction of light and dark, although it is not very dark, but even people like Qi Yun who have little life experience know that the night will fill the whole world in ten minutes.

"What should I do," Qi Yun's voice couldn't help but carry a hint of timidity, "It's getting dark, do you remember the road...... By the way, you must have marked the tree with a strip of red cloth, like the one I came across earlier. ”

Lu Weiping's performance in the class is very calm, and Qi Yun believes that he will not be like himself. Thinking about it like this, her heart settled down a little. But this sense of stability that had just risen was dispelled away by Lu Wei's cold words:

"Others are prepared in advance, where do I have something on me to tie to the tree? Originally, I drew a sketch as I walked, but then you ran too fast after the squirrel, and I was afraid that I would lose it with you, so I didn't have time to remember anything, so I hurriedly ran here. ”

"What? What did you say? Qi Yun's mouth was open enough to stuff an egg, and he stretched out his hand and pointed directly at Lu Wei: "You, you, you...... Stalking me? ”

It turns out that this hateful guy has been secretly monitoring her whereabouts, what is this not voyeurism? Thinking that the incomplete five-tone song "Love When You Die" in the afternoon was also listened to by him, Qi Yun couldn't wait to dig a hole on the spot and bury himself. At this moment, he reluctantly followed behind him, looking at his back, and it was like a murderous heart.

"It turns out that you only knew that I was following you, and you drilled left and right in the woods in the afternoon, and I thought it was your anti-tracking skills that caused me to lose it." Lu Wei was dismissive: "Don't think that anyone wants to follow you, if it weren't for me, you might not be able to go home today." ”

"That's not your business!" Qi Yun's mouth stiffened.

The voice from the hateful back actually brought a hint of a smile: "Okay, I don't care, but what are you doing now walking behind me." ”

"I ...... I'd love to! Can you handle it? Since he was choked and rolled his eyes, Qi Yun simply took the "Invincible Cheeky Technique at the Corner of the City Wall" to the extreme. In this way, he also succeeded in making Lu Wei silent.

Lu Wei walked through the woods like a saw-billed gourd, but Qi Yun couldn't bear the loneliness, and suddenly turned his eyes cautiously, and became puzzled again: "Since you didn't mark the road, where are you taking me now?" Don't just walk around, you have to find a way to find the bearing, oh yes, I remember again, the way to find the way to find the direction in the woods is to see which side of the canopy grows thicker, and the denser side is the south side. And ......"

"Tsk," Lu Wei couldn't bear to stand still, and pointed to the sky: "Classmate Qi Yun, if you really want to know the southeast and northwest, let me tell you, the location of the brightest star in the sky in the evening is the west, oh, it is the one I finger at, called Sirius, next to it a little southeast There are three small stars forming a small horn, like a bow?" This is what the ancients said, 'bending the bow and shooting the wolf'. ”

Qi Yun looked up and saw a whole ink-blue sky, so pure and tranquil blue. In the direction of Lu Wei's finger, she saw a few little stars that were blinking mischievously. The visibility in the mountains is much higher than in the city, and the stars are very clear, like many small gems, flashing and flashing, which makes Qi Yun's heart itch. She was silent for a moment.

The only sound of two people's footsteps remained in the silent woods. After half a ring, Qi Yun said sullenly:

"It's good that you know where to go. But this forest is really evil, just now I drilled around in it and went back to the same place, it seems that the legendary ghost hit the wall. ”

"It doesn't matter, let's walk along the stream," perhaps because of exhaustion, Lu Wei unexpectedly slowed down his tone, "Wherever there is a stream, the stream itself will definitely find a way down the mountain, and this forest can lead to the way down the mountain, and there is a pass that must be passed through is the Jade Emperor Peak." ”

"Well, really?" Qi Yun was still puzzled: "But where is the stream?" ”

She thought that Lu Wei was just talking. But Lu Wei beckoned and motioned for her to squat down.

"You touch the ground." He first demonstrated that he stretched out his hand and touched it, and the hand raised again was actually wet, "Although there is very little water here, it is almost impossible to rush out of a stream, but if you listen carefully, you can still hear a little stream in the depths of the woods." ”

Qi Yun calmed down, and sure enough, he heard the sound of a gurgling spring, which was very, very slight, as if it were nothing. At this time, a bright moon rose above the treetops than the city, Qi Yun looked at the moon, and felt the tranquility of the forest as if condensed into solid, "the bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring stone flows upstream", although the scenery is different, but the interest is always very close.

As if to break the embarrassment of being poetic and picturesque, Qi Yun squeezed his eyes at Lu Wei and asked a little maliciously: "Didn't you say that your hometown is dry and short of water, and you have to walk several miles to the river to fetch water every morning before going to school, how can you be so familiar with the stream of the creek, where do these skills come from?" Did you learn it when you were mowing grass and herding pigs on your back? ”

Lu Wei glanced at Qi Yun silently, and said unhurriedly: "It is precisely because of the extreme drought in our hometown that we know more about finding water, and we are particularly sensitive to the sounds and traces of water. Speaking of herding pigs, my old sow once got lost in the mountains, but the next morning I saw her back in her pen with a herd of piglets. ”

This was the first time Qi Yun heard about the sow feeding the piglets, and he was very interested, and he was about to ask, but suddenly felt that there was something in Lu Wei's words, and it was very shady and explicit, and he couldn't help but be angry.

Just as he was about to say something to ridicule each other, he unconsciously stepped out of the woods, although it was in the dark, there was still a shadow of an antique building with a glazed tile roof in front of him, which looked solemn and magnificent in the night light. Of course, Qi Yun had seen more ingenious ancient buildings than this, but for her, who had been lost for a whole afternoon and a night, how could there be anything more moving than what she saw in front of her?

"Jade Emperor Peak!"

After Qi Yun was stunned, his next reaction was to point to the building in front of him excitedly, jumping to his feet again and again, and even forgetting for the time being that he had provoked her just now. She heard the person beside her breathe a long sigh of relief from her chest, and the sound of her breathing was also excited, but she suppressed it vividly, and just said unhurriedly:

"Finally found ...... I was also up and down in my heart just now, for fear that I wouldn't be able to find it again, but it would be bad. ”

Qi Yun came back to his senses, and naturally immediately hit the snake with the stick: "It's also true, after running around like a blind mouse for so long, even your old sow should find a way." ”

The people around him shook their chests and let out a hehe laugh, "Didn't I tell you that my old sow only returned to the pen the next morning?" Then it must have been stumbling around like a blind mouse for a long time on the first night, but it didn't find its way, but was sent back to the place by the ghost hitting the wall. ”

Qi Yun was furious again, and he couldn't even care about the ladylike demeanor that he had been working hard to maintain among his classmates, so he reached out and slapped the back of Lu Wei's hand, only to hear a muffled sound of "pop", the voice was heavy and heavy, and it was obvious that this palm was very strong. Qi Yun was not only proud, but also a little embarrassed, although she and Lu Wei had been classmates for half a year, except for tonight, they had never even said a few words, and they could be said to be familiar strangers. Such a sudden physical contact, especially in such a barren mountain range, in the middle of the night, can't help but show a trace of ambiguity. Besides, he's a big boy, and he's always had a weird temper, so what if he gets angry when she attacks her like this? What if he fights back? Even if he didn't fight back, would he leave her alone in this barren mountain in a fit of rage? Qi Yun regretted it very much when he thought about it, and coughed lightly, as if to drive away the little embarrassment floating in the air.

Qi Yun felt the bodies of the people around him stiffen, obviously more nervous than himself. Fortunately, his voice did not put Qi Yun in a more embarrassing situation, he just said very strangely:

"Yikes! Qi Yun, why are your hands so cold? ”

"I ......" Qi Yun made a bitter face, crossed his hands in front of his chest, hid his hands under his armpits to maintain a little body temperature, and said pitifully: "It's so cold!" ”

She was right. This is the weather at the beginning of spring, and it is a mountainous area, coupled with the sharp drop in temperature at night, a thin jacket with a long-sleeved T and a cover on her body is naturally unable to resist. However, the family motto that Qi Yun has received since he was a child is to swallow it silently even if he is bitter, and he will not show weakness in front of others. Although Qi Yun had been fighting for a long time, he had been holding back and did not show the slightest hint to Lu Wei.

Qi Yun complained about the damn weather, but he didn't have anything more to say. After all, it was she who climbed the wild mountain without permission that would cause her to get lost, and she was to blame, not to mention that she was so tired that Lu Wei was also frozen. Although Qi Yun's mouth is hard, he is not an unreasonable person, and at this time, he can't help but feel a little sorry for Lu Wei in his heart. She pursed her lips as she walked, thinking about saying something or two, when she suddenly felt her shoulders sink and a warm touch poured from her shoulders into her heart.

Qi Yun was stunned, and it took several seconds before he reacted, it was Lu Wei who took off his coat and draped it on his body.

After thinking about it, Qi Yun's face was redder than the red scarf mask, and she couldn't even speak clearly, she pointed at Lu Wei, and then pointed to the clothes on her shoulders, and stammered:

"You, you...... I...... I don't have to ......."

Lu Wei still frowned habitually, his thin lips were tightly pursed into a line, and he also stammered: "This dress...... ...... just washed yesterday"

Qi Yun was anxious: "It's not that I don't think the clothes are clean!" I ......"

Lu Wei said categorically: "If you don't like it, just dress it well!" ”

There was an undoubted force in his voice, which made Qi Yun unable to object. Of course, Qi Yun also suspected that it was too cold this night, so a small voice subconsciously persuaded her to keep this coat. Anyway, Lu Wei said that this coat must be true if it has only been washed, because there is still a clean soap smell on it, and of course there is another smell, a little bit of it is unique to boys, a little wild and a little rough atmosphere, this little bit of breath makes Qi Yun's heart slightly shocked.

They trekked through the pine forest in the dark, and what a beautiful place they had been during the day, but now they were only surrounded by endless darkness and scorched emotions. Qi Yun was uneasy, not knowing what would be waiting for them when they reached the foot of the mountain? The other students in the department must have left, will there be a teacher who will stay and wait for them? If there were, I'm afraid they would have called the police at this time, and the search and rescue team said that they might not come up the mountain to find them in a while.

Qi Yun knew that what she had broken into was almost a catastrophe, but when she thought of the search and rescue team, she didn't feel too much panic, but felt a kind of hope in her heart. If she wants to be scolded anyway, if the search and rescue team comes, can you carry her down the mountain on a stretcher? She really couldn't walk a single step, and after a day of climbing the mountain road today, she was now cold and hungry, and her legs were more like lead. She screamed, and her feet grinded.

"Tsk," Lu Wei looked back with an impatient look, "Qi Yun, why are you walking so slowly?" Don't you see that it's getting colder? Even if you have entered the tourist development zone and there are no wild beasts, in the middle of the night, this mountain will freeze to death! ”

Qi Yun felt a great grievance in his heart. She is a delicate girl, so tired that her legs are about to break, and she has been walking here all the time. Although all this is caused by her fault, no matter how you say it, Lu Wei shouldn't be so fierce to her! She gritted her teeth, trying to hold back the tears that were rolling in her eyes, and stomped her foot in anger, wanting to say a cruel word, but she stepped on something, screamed "ah", and squatted on the ground.

Lu Wei hurriedly turned around and saw that Qi Yun couldn't stand up anymore, looking at him with a pair of innocent big eyes, and his face was covered with sweat. His heart tightened, and he hurried to check on her wounds. It turned out that Qi Yun stomped her foot just now, and she just stomped on a sharp stone, and as soon as the stone slipped, her foot was bent, and it was quite serious, and the ankle of her right foot was swollen at an alarming speed.

Qi Yun took a light breath and subconsciously reached out to rub the wound. Lu Wei hurriedly grabbed her forearm and warned, "Don't rub it!" Qi Yun was also obedient, although his eyebrows were tight, but in the end he retracted his hand raw. Lu Wei squatted in the cold wind to check Qi Yun's injury, at a loss, and asked with a glimmer of hope, "Can you still get up and go?" ”

Qi Yun snorted lightly and replied. Lu Wei was also silent, feeling that what he was asking was nothing more than nonsense. He rubbed his hands together and silently calculated the distance in his mind. It takes about 40 minutes to walk from the inside to the foot of the mountain during the day, but now it is night, and I am afraid that it may not be possible to walk in 1 hour; Another option is to return to the Jade Emperor Peak, explain the situation to the staff in the Taoist temple, it should not be impossible to spend the night, but from here to climb to the Jade Emperor Peak, there is no 20-minute walk and you can't go back.

Lu Wei glanced at Qi Yun's injured ankle again, which was already swollen and shiny in the moonlight, which was extremely shocking. He frowned secretly, seeing that Qi Yun couldn't take another step, in case he tore his ligaments or even fractured his ankle, it wasn't a joke. Rao is Lu Wei has always been quiet, but at this moment he also fell into a short period of confusion, and heard Qi Yun say pitifully:

"You go alone, if the wolf is coming, eat me, it's better than our whole army being wiped out."

Lu Wei was angry and funny. Seeing that he was silent, Qi Yun continued to say: "Otherwise, there should be a mobile phone signal here, so it's better to call the police, call the search and rescue team, and ask them to send someone to rescue us." ”

Lu Wei scoffed: "Do you think the police station was opened by your family?" Ready to rescue your eldest lady? By the time the search and rescue team arrived, I don't know if you would have frozen into a popsicle. ”

Qi Yun heard that the boss was unhappy, so he kicked the only remaining good leg in vain, and said: "I'm happy to change popsicles, you can go by yourself, go quickly, go quickly, and when the search and rescue team comes, I will invite them to eat popsicles!" ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand to drive away Lu Yu. Lu Wei squatted down beside her quietly, only to find that her big eyes were full of tears, and Lu Wei was silent in his heart. the worries, fears of this afternoon; more than ten hours of walking and trekking in the mountains and forests; Plus now the injury...... She was a little girl after all, and it was indeed enough for her. Lu Wei stretched out a palm towards Qi Yun.

Qi Yun raised his face and looked at Lu Wei blankly. Lu Wei whispered: "Try it, can you stand up?" ”

Qi Yun gritted her teeth and stood up with his hand, this action affected the injury, her beautiful brows twisted again, but she didn't complain, and even showed an apologetic smile at Lu Wei:

"It doesn't seem to be good......

Lu Wei bent down, grabbed her arms and put them on his shoulders, and then straightened his waist with a little strength, and Qi Yun's slender body was firmly carried on his back. Lu Wei stabilized his mind, just like the little nephew who stayed at home with his sister who worked on his back when he was in his hometown, he stretched out his hands and gently supported Qi Yun's two legs, so that when he walked the mountain road, she could stay more stable on his back.

"Hey, hey......" Qi Yun was stunned for a few seconds, and then suddenly burst into a scream, she twisted her body to get off him, and when she found that she couldn't do it, she pinched Lu Wei's shoulder with her fingernails.

"Let it go...... Put...... Put me down! Qi Yun was so angry that his face turned red and he stammered when he spoke. She screamed, "You bad guy! You wait for me! ”

In fact, Lu Wei's nervousness was even more intense than Qi Yun's, he didn't even use his mind to think about how he got on her back, maybe he subconsciously thought that if he didn't do this, there would be no way to escape from the cold mountains and forests tonight, right? But is this a danger to others? Lu Wei obviously felt cold just now, but now he was sweating profusely.

But as soon as he spoke, his tone was still as cold as an ice cube, "Tsk! Don't make a fuss! Either we'll just go down the mountain, or we'll just stay here together and spend the night frozen into popsicles - you can pick one! ”

After Lu Wei finished speaking, he only felt a strange silence on his back. Qi Yun didn't even make any more rebuttals, and even stopped making trouble, just lying quietly on his back. Qi Yun is actually very thin, and when he doesn't struggle hard, he only has a slight touch on his back, and Lu Wei is a person who is used to carrying weights, carrying her through the mountains and forests, and he can also walk steadily, and his speed is not slow.

Lu Wei didn't feel tired, but the sweat on his head only flowed more and faster, his heart pounded out of his chest, and his breathing became heavy. He could feel Qi Yun's soft cheeks gently against a small patch of skin on the back of his neck, and her hair was blown up by the night breeze, and the silk was twisted around his ears, with the fragrance of shampoo. His mind was as confused as a numb, but Qi Yun's silence reassured him, and he stabilized his mind and strode down the mountain.

That day, until Lu Wei carried Qi Yun to the foot of the mountain, they all tacitly maintained this silence, for fear that as soon as they spoke, the already ambiguous atmosphere would be even more white-hot and unbearable.

And in this silence, Qi Yun raised his head and carefully observed the night sky that day. The night sky in the mountains will always have a beauty that people who have lived in the city for a long time have never seen, and on the gorgeous background like inky blue velvet, Qi Yun gently saw a river composed of stars for the first time in her life, this is what people call "the Milky Way", she also saw the two sides of the Milky Way, each with a bright star, watching each other across the river, this is probably the two stars of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl - the river is clear and shallow, how much is it different? It's not a chapter all day long, and the tears are like rain! Qi Yun's heart was suddenly deeply moved by the poignant love of ancient legends.
