Chapter 100: Separation

The Nafdi Temple, as a place for recording and transmitting knowledge, has only one entrance and exit, and the passage behind the stone statue also has one and only one way to pass. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info crossed the high threshold and walked into the passage, and the content on the wall gradually changed in the order of "infant" - "newborn" - "fetus" - "child" - "sexual intercourse" - "menstruation".

When he first entered the door, facing all kinds of words and paintings about babies and young children on the wall, Lu Shaoyun did not feel embarrassed or shy. Therefore, he divided a part of his mind and analyzed after looking around: "The reason why the threshold is so high, and the knowledge of infants and newborns is recorded in the closest place to the entrance, should be to prevent those who are not old enough to enter to see the content that should not be seen by them, right?" ”

Lu Shaoyun, who continued to walk along the passage behind Xia Shuanghan, looked up at the written record of the newborn under the moon on the wall, and whispered: "The threshold is high enough to prevent the children who have not yet grown in physique from entering the temple; The boring text of raising and caring for babies and newborns can dispel the curiosity of teenagers and girls who want to come in and find out. Frost, did you think I guessed right? ”

"Sounds reasonable, but unfortunately I guessed wrong." Xia Shuanghan, who also looked up at the newborn painting on the wall, explained: "In the matter of raising and teaching the next generation, the Rong people pay attention to 'conforming to nature', that is, 'doing what at what age'. ”

Therefore, all children under the age of age know that the Nafudi Temple is a place that should only be set foot in when they are married. Therefore, no matter how strong their curiosity is, they will never walk in when they should not enter. ”

Therefore, the threshold is high enough to prevent rainwater from backing up and destroying the records on the wall. The reason why the content related to babies and toddlers is engraved closest to the entrance and exit is because this order is the most convenient and reasonable. ”

After all, for couples who have already given birth to children, they already know what is in front of the channel. So if you reverse the order and have to run all the way to the end of the passage to find what they need, this way is too cumbersome. ”

Speaking of this, I realized that the text on the wall had transitioned from "maternal physical recovery and dietary precautions" to "how to take care of premature babies and make them thrive", Xia Shuanghan decisively stopped his steps and was reluctant to move forward. Because going further, beyond the walls of "childbirth" and "pregnancy", the next thing is the content of "asking for children" that she has seen countless times in her previous life.

For Xia Shuanghan, who failed to become a mother in her previous life and doesn't know if she will become a mother in this life, she really doesn't want to watch the previous content again.

"Frosty?" Lu Shaoyun, who stopped following Xia Shuanghan, thought at first that the reason why she stopped moving forward was because the previous content made her feel shy. But soon, Lu Shaoyun found out that he was wrong. Because Xia Shuanghan's face was not shy and embarrassed, but with a bit of sadness and despair. "Frost, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, I don't have anything." Xia Shuanghan, who quickly got rid of the memories of not being able to have children in his previous life, smiled lightly and took Lu Shaoyun's hand and said, "Let's go, let's not read the previous content." ”

"I'm not leaving." Lu Shaoyun, who held Xia Shuanghan's right hand into the palm of his hand with his backhand, pulled his sweetheart who wanted to turn around and leave. He wanted to figure out what was the matter with her momentary change in mood.

However, before Lu Shaoyun asked the doubts in his heart, Xia Shuanghan, who misinterpreted the reason for his reluctance to leave, blocked his questions back with a smile: "Why, are you so interested in the previous content?" So want to see it? ”

"I ...... How can I have? Reacted in an instant, and now he was alive in Xia Shuanghan's eyes, like a womanizer who was anxious to see the picture of the Spring Palace, Lu Shaoyun, his cheeks were slightly red, and he retorted: "I don't want to see the pictures inside!" ”

"Don't you want to see it? Don't you really want to see it? In his previous life, Xia Shuanghan, who was always teased by Lu Shaoyun with such jokes, instantly found the fun of "bullying" lovers who were purer than himself. So she raised her hand to wrap her arms around Lu Shaoyun's back, raised her head and licked and kissed him on his Adam's apple and said, "How is it, do you think you can refute it now?" ”

Which parts of Lu Shaoyun's body are his sensitive points, Xia Shuanghan, who was his wife for three years in his previous life, knows it best. So, such a seemingly shallow and short kiss set his body on fire in an instant because it accurately provoked Lu Shaoyun's sleeping desire.

Looking at the pair of amber eyes flashing with a cunning light in front of him, Lu Shaoyun's body stiffened for a moment, and he was completely bewitched after coming back to his senses. He couldn't wait to lower his head, all he wanted was to take Xia Shuanghan's two petal-like lips in his mouth and kiss hard.

It's a pity that at the moment when he took action, Xia Shuanghan's move of raising his hand to cover his lips was destined to be a kiss that fell on the back of his hand.

"Lu Tingxuan, I advise you to dispel the idea of kissing me." Looking up at Lu Shaoyun, who couldn't help but show grievances and doubts because the kiss was in vain, Xia Shuanghan, who was playful, grinned, leaned forward and gently rubbed an organ belonging to Lu Shaoyun with her lower abdomen, which woke up the moment she licked and kissed him, and then said: "If you really kiss down, then I guess we will really not be able to get out in a short time." ”

β€œ...... You, you ......" Lu Shaoyun, who was rubbing against the summer frost and cold in the most sensitive part of his body, only felt that his body temperature was rising desperately, and he was about to burn him to ashes.

"Me? What am I? Xia Shuanghan, who knew what it meant to accept it when he saw it, after getting the effect he was satisfied with, very cruelly played "what is called leaving after teasing" to the fullest.

Taking a few steps back and looking at Lu Shaoyun's appearance of wanting to burn himself and desperately forbearing, he deeply realized the fun of teasing his sweetheart Xia Shuanghan, and he couldn't stop laughing.

"You...... You actually make fun of me in such a bad way......" Glancing at Xia Shuanghan who was smiling angrily, Lu Shaoyun couldn't figure out the feeling in his heart.

Is he angry now? Of course I'm angry! was teased by his beloved girl but couldn't really "eat" her, can Lu Shaoyun not be angry? However, in addition to being angry, what is the sweet, warm feeling in the bottom of my heart, which swells all over my body in an instant?

"What, you're really angry?" After a while, when Lu Shaoyun suppressed his desire and turned to walk outside the temple, Xia Shuanghan, who was left behind by him in ignorance, caught up with him in a few steps, stretched out his hand and grabbed his sleeve and said, "What are you angry with me, is it worth it?" ”

"Why is it not worth it, since you dare to be bad, you have to accept punishment. From now on, I won't talk to you anymore! ”

"Poof!" Xia Shuanghan, who was amused by Lu Shaoyun's naΓ―ve but extremely cute words and deeds, couldn't help but lean over and peck and kiss him on the cheek, and then smiled: "Good, don't be angry, okay?" ”

......Lu Shaoyun, who was once again in the bottom of his heart, recalled the kiss that Xia Shuanghan fell on his cheek, and after several hesitations, he barely restrained the idea of compromise, and said with a fluttering look against his will: "It's not good, a kiss, or a kiss that falls on the face just want me to dissipate my anger?" There are no doors. ”

"Hey, since you don't want to get angry, then forget it." Xia Shuanghan, who let go of the sleeves in his hand, turned around and walked out, while bowing his head and sighing listlessly: "You are willing to waste the precious time we have left alone before going to business, that is also your freedom, I can't interfere." ”

"......" Hearing this, Lu Shaoyun, who knew that he was completely eaten by Xia Shuanghan, shook his head helplessly and smiled, rushed forward and took her left hand, and tried to be serious: "You are not allowed to tease me casually in the future, do you hear?" ”

"No," Xia Shuanghan, who had been waiting for Lu Shaoyun to catch up, tilted his head and smiled after interlocking his fingers with him: "I just like to see your forbearance of the two heavens of ice and fire." So in the future, I will tease you. ”

"Hey! Why is my life so miserable? Lu Shaoyun, who had just experienced what it meant to be "painful and happy", turned his head to look at Xia Shuanghan's bright and unusual smiling face, and whispered in his heart: "But what should I do if I am so happy?" ”

The afternoon after lunch was busy, carrying the blankets from the bedrooms into the yard to pat and dust, cutting winter furs in the cloister with Sanisha and Camorra, and baking naan in the villagers' common stove with Baliya...... There are too many things that need to be done by Xia Shuanghan.

However, even after a busy afternoon, when night fell, the summer frost after washing up, he was still energetic to find something to do for himself.

"Shixuan, Ran, are you free now?" Outside the room shared by Lu Shaoyun and Lin Xiran, Xia Shuanghan, who was holding a tape measure and a pen and paper, raised his hand and knocked on the carved wooden door. "If you have time, I'll give you the size you need to make winter clothes!"

Shoulder width, chest circumference, arm length, waist circumference...... All the data needed to make a complete set of winter clothes from head to toe was recorded after Xia Shuang Han measured them one by one.

And seeing Xia Shuanghan busy around him with a tape measure, Lin Xiran, who couldn't bear to trouble his "friend's wife", couldn't help but say: "Shuanghan, if you make the winter clothes for me and Brother Shixuan, will you not have time to make the dowry?" ”

"It's okay," Xia Shuanghan, who rolled up the tape measure while recording the last data, explained: "According to the tradition of the Rong people, all kinds of embroidery dowries are made by the bride since she was ten years old. Therefore, except for the auspicious clothes on the day of marriage, I have completed all the dowries such as pillowcases and quilts three years ago. ”

"Oh, I see." Recalling the carriage full of various living materials he brought from the capital, Lin Xiran, who suddenly came to his senses, said: "When I left Beijing, did the heavy wooden box you hand over to me contain all your embroidery dowry?" ”

"Yes, that's it." After answering Lin Xiran's question, Xia Shuanghan bent down to pick up the dress concept that he had conceived in his previous life from the low table, but it didn't come in handy at all, and turned to Lu Shaoyun and said: "Shixuan, this is the idea of the auspicious dress that I figured out by myself this afternoon, you can take a look, if you are not satisfied, you can put forward any suggestions." ”

Painted on the drawing paper is a set of groom's auspicious clothes that combines the two styles of clothing and decoration of the Rong and Han people.

The front and back sides of the auspicious costume, the specially enlarged local embroidery, as well as the material and color labeling of each part, and every pattern and idea on the drawing paper, all made Lu Shaoyun feel satisfied and ironed: "No need to modify it, just do it like this." Frost and cold, being able to marry a clever lady like you is simply a blessing that I have cultivated in eight lifetimes! ”

"Not serious!" Although the two of them were very open when they were alone in private, once there were others around them, Xia Shuanghan was embarrassed to face Lu Shaoyun's sweet words.

So, she was a little shy and embarrassed, and Lu Shaoyun, who was smiling with a white face, picked up the drawings and nodded hurriedly to Lin Xiran, and then went out to go back to the room she shared with Baliya.

"Look at you, you're embarrassing the bride!" Facing Fa Xiao's sweet words that did not care about others, Lin Xiran, who deeply felt that "the love between men and women really has great magic", patted Lu Shaoyun's shoulder with a smile and said: "It's good to be able to hug a beauty, but don't forget to get down to business." ”

What Lin Xiran said about the business naturally refers to the fact that he and Lu Shaoyun entered the interior of Qiuzi Mountain and secretly drew a map. It's just that, according to the results of their quiet discussion last night, the operation of drawing a map needs to wait until they return from the business before officially begins.

And the reason why they decided this way is nothing more than the following three points:

First of all, for Lin Xiran and Lu Shaoyun, who had just entered the village, it was undoubtedly a reckless stupid act to use the short few days before the twenty-fifth day to rashly enter the mountain to investigate before they had obviously been able to dispel the doubts of the "sentinels" in the village.

Secondly, before Xia Shuanghan and Lu Shaoyun completed their wedding, she lived in the same room with Baliya, and it was not convenient for her to discuss with Lu Shaoyun and Lin Xiran about entering the mountain and cover for them. Therefore, in the absence of a helper, it is obviously preferable to wait patiently for the time to come.

In the end, Lu Shaoyun and Lin Xiran, who are busy for business, weddings, celebrations and winter preparations, really can't find time to go into the mountains at present. Charcoal for heating in winter, forage for sheep and horses to survive the winter, drying and drying fruits, and hunting for food and fur, there are so many things they need to do.

So in this way, after a few busy days passed, in the early morning of the twenty-fifth day of July, Lu Shaoyun and Lin Xiran rode on horses, drove the car, and together with the caravan led by Hazlu, ushered in the day of embarking on a business journey to the direction of Persia.

Looking back at Xia Shuanghan, who had to stop reluctantly sending him to the entrance of the village, Lu Shaoyun, who couldn't help blushing slightly in the friendly laughter of the elders, followed the example of the young men in the same village who were also going to get married in September, put his hands to his lips and plucked up the courage to shout: "Shuang Han, obediently wait for me to come back and marry you know?" ”

And like the girls who came to see off their sweethearts next to them, Xia Shuanghan, who shouted in response to "I know", waved his arms, and his heart was as happy as if he had soaked in honey.

Being separated from the two places for a long time with the sweetheart who is happy with each other is undoubtedly very painful for Lu Shaoyun. After all, unlike Xia Shuanghan, who retains the memories of his previous life, Lu Shaoyun, who has been in love with Xia Shuanghan in this life, has never been separated from his sweetheart for more than two days.

When he was in the capital, Lu Shaoyun, who was busy with official business during the day and couldn't see Xia Shuang's cold, could take time out of the night to sneak into Xia's house in Shuanghe Lane in the dark; After embarking on the journey to Naming Village, Lu Shaoyun, who shared the bed with Xia Shuanghan almost every night, was even more satisfied and often carried his sweetheart to sleep.

But now, walking on the business road leaving Naming Village, Lu Shaoyun, who slept alone at night, let alone take Xia Shuanghan into his arms, he couldn't do anything except hold the peace and ruyi made for him by his sweetheart. So, every time in the dead of night, Lu Shaoyun's thoughts about Xia Shuanghan became more and more surging, and it was difficult to suppress it.

"You must be careful on the road, take care of yourself, and be careful not to get sick or hurt, you know?"

Under the bright starry sky, he once again thought of Lu Shaoyun who was cold in Xia Shuanghan before falling asleep, and his mind kept coming up with Xia Shuanghan's earnest advice and deep concern for him in the early morning of leaving the village. Warm and sweet in his heart, he looked up at the small half round of Emei Moon shining like celadon light hanging in the sky, and couldn't help but think: I don't know, what will the frost and cold do at this moment?

Under the same night sky, on the same land, Xia Shuanghan, who was sitting in Lu Shaoyun and Lin Xiran's room with an oil lamp, was drawing a sketch of the internal passage of Chuzi Mountain on a drawing paper based on the memories of her previous life and the preliminary investigation in recent days.

In his previous life, Xia Shuanghan, who had lived in Naming Village for three years, would always hike into the mountain alone whenever he missed Lu Shaoyun, and walked among the complex but mysterious passages and caves in Chuzi Mountain.

After all, no matter what, the space inside the mountain is a place that Lu Shaoyun has visited many times in his previous life. Therefore, being able to set foot on the same land as his beloved can be regarded as a small comfort for Xia Shuanghan, who had just arrived in Naming Village to live at that time.

At that time, when the Chuzi Mountains had been completely swept away by the Great Xia warriors, the den where the red and white pills were made and sold in the mountains had long since ceased to exist. Therefore, walking inside the mountain, which has become more open and brighter due to the encirclement and suppression operation, is not much difficult for Xia Shuanghan, and there is no danger at all.

So, as a person who has gone deep into the interior of the mountain many times in his previous life and remembers some passages very much, in recent days, he has taken advantage of the opportunity to go out to peek at the hidden entrance of the mountain many times in the summer, and decided to draw all the things he remembers to help Lu Shaoyun and Lin Xiran complete the task as soon as possible.

According to the memories of his previous life, there are four entrances and exits to the inner passages of the mountain that Xia Shuanghan remembers.

The first entrance and exit are hidden among the rocks with intertwined canine teeth. After entering the passage, about 700 steps forward, on the originally smooth rock wall of the passage, there will be a dense crowd of thousands of gray-yellow spiders crouching in thick white spider webs.

Spiders are poisonous or not Xia Shuanghan doesn't know, she only knows that in her previous life, after seeing the octagonal carnivorous small animals in this whole passage (spiders are not insects), she fled in a creepy manner.

The second entrance is on a steep hillside with strange rocks. After entering the passage, you will walk about 1,200 steps and encounter countless large bats hanging upside down on the top of the rock face.

In his previous life, he faced these countless flying animals that were abnormal to small sounds, and Xia Shuanghan, who inadvertently made a loud noise between his feet, in order to prevent himself from being attacked by them, he had to cover his head with a hood, and lay down on the cold and hard ground alone for a long time without exposing his skin.

The third entrance and exit is hidden behind various artificially set up camouflage obstacles. Soon after entering the cave, you can see man-made defenses such as fences and gates.

It is conceivable that before the encirclement and suppression operation was launched, it was obvious that this passage was the main path for the criminals to enter and exit the mountain. In addition, the stone walls deep in the passage are covered with fluorescent lichens that emit light on their own.

Under the light of fluorescent lichens like the full moon and moonlight, the summer frost and cold who entered the mountains in the previous life can still move forward a long way even when the oil lamp is extinguished.

The final entrance is a small cave on a steep rock face, some distance from the ground and the top of the cliff.

The cliff where the cave is located goes straight up and down, and there is almost no place to step on. Therefore, it is completely impossible to enter the cave without climbing down from the top of the stone wall with the help of ropes, or flying up with light power to step on the wall.

In addition, the interior of the cave is directly connected to an underground river. As a result, the turbulent water gushing out of the cave has been hanging from the cliff for many years.

"Aunt Frost Cold," outside the door, the little girl Tireco, who came over with sour eyes and yawning, raised her hand and knocked on the carved door, and said sleepily, "Have you finished drawing your bride's auspicious costume?" If you haven't already, can you paint it again tomorrow? It's getting late now, it's time to go to bed. ”

"Ah, Auntie was so engrossed in the drawing just now that she didn't notice that it was so late." Under the guise of drawing the bride's auspicious clothes, Xia Shuanghan, who hid in Lu Shaoyun and Lin Xiran's house, naturally packed up the sketches she had just drawn and the text instructions marked aside, and then turned to Tireco, who came to ask her to go to sleep.

"It's Aunt Frost tonight, it's not right, I forgot to make an appointment with you to tell you a story before going to bed that night. Tonight's story, when Auntie is doing needlework during the day, will I tell you later? ”

"Okay." Because she likes the fragrance of osmanthus flowers on Xia Shuanghan's body, she always likes to sleep with her after getting acquainted with her, Tireco, who raised her hand to cover the yawning of another exit, and said in a soft and lazy voice: "Then Aunt Shuanghan, let's go to sleep now!" ”

"Okay." Smiling as she blew out the lights, she walked out the door, closed the door, and then bent down to pick up Tireco, who was waiting at the side, and turned around and walked into the room she shared with Baria. (To be continued.) )
