Chapter 3 Departure

The two of them were surprised and delighted, this kind of light work is not much different from the Lord!

Yanran stepped on the thick willow branches, began to slowly lean under the roots of the tree, peeling off the thick moss with her hands, and she suddenly found that the so-called insect corpses that were black and tangled together, where were the insects, they were the fungus umbrellas of the agarwood bone!

Her heart pounded, and she cried out in ecstasy: "Found it, now found it!" ”

But there was an exclamation from the sword picking up the book: "Princess, don't move!" Don't move! ”

Just above her head, a large snake with a thick bowl was already closing in on her waist. The snake was coiled on a willow branch, and it was impossible to notice it without looking at it. At this moment, he was probably alarmed by Yanran, so he swam down from the branch, and they found out.

At this time, she was in Shekou, and they were ten feet away from her, unable to get close. Shi Jian was so anxious to pick up the book that his face turned pale, and the wind and rain Erwei were at a loss for a while.

When Yanran heard the two of them screaming, she knew that something was wrong, and suddenly heard a hissing spit in her ears, and she knew that she had encountered a snake. There were snakes in the mountains, too, and she was familiar with their temperaments, so she shrunk and didn't move. The snake approached her, but suddenly lost its purpose, and spat out its core suspiciously, and circled around her. She held her breath, and several times even felt the snake core reach in front of her eyes, so she had to close her eyes, desperately trying to control her urge to jump off the tree and escape.

Then the rain found a dead branch, took it in his hand and waved it, and yelled at the serpent, trying to provoke the beast to anger. Inspired by the wind, he also ran to the vicinity, finding all the dead vines and branches that he could find, and also brandished the enraging snake. The big snake was really stimulated by the fluttering things not far away, and slid down from under the tree, and its huge body ploughed out a black wave from the black mud, and swooped down on them.

Yan Ran on the tree let out a long breath, hurriedly took out a dagger, and cut off the agarwood bone in front of him little by little. This agarwood bone grows all around the trunk, the roots are very deep, it is estimated that the willow tree was sucked away by them alive before withering and dying, which shows the strong vitality of this thing!

After the four of them attracted the big snake over, the sword picked up the book and used the secret weapon skill, and the handful of iron thistles beckoned directly to the seven inches and eyes of the big snake. Hearing only two plops, the snake's eyes were blinded, but the seven inches were unscathed, and all the thistles were bounced off by the scales on its body. The big snake was blind, and suddenly became furious, flicked its tail, and the whirring wind sounded, and the rain could not dodge, and was swept away by it, and rolled out seven or eight feet away. The wind rushed over to help him up, and without hesitation, the two drew their swords and fought the furious serpent. The sword saw the opportunity and jumped on the snake's head, the big snake felt that his head was heavy, so he shook his head frantically, and the sword only felt the wind whistling in his ears, and his stomach was uncomfortable, but he still held the snake's neck desperately, and at the moment when it stopped, he took out a dagger from his arms and stabbed seven inches from the jaw of the big snake. The serpent screamed and rolled on the ground, and the sword took the opportunity to jump down, picked up the book and rushed forward, and the dagger in his hand stabbed into the snake's belly. The two guards of the wind and rain struck together, and finally cut off the snake's head.

All four of them sat on the ground panting. Yanran on the tree had already picked enough agarwood bones, but she couldn't return. The plank had already sunk into the black mud.

The sword and the book found two dead vines, connected them into one, threw one end to Yan Ran, and let the two of them pull the other end. Yan Ran tied the dead vine to the branch of the tree, jumped up on it, flew over the vine, and returned to them without danger.

The wind and the rain, the books and the sword, the five of them returned to the grass hut at dusk. An Ran was also overjoyed to hear that they had finally found the agarwood bone as they wished. Tomorrow, you will be able to say goodbye to this swamp!

At night, Yanran sat in front of the grass hut with An Ran, looking at the starlight in the dark sky. An Ran was full of emotion, he spent seven years here, and the best years of his life were wasted. Even if he returned to Middle-earth, his desolate state of mind was not suitable for surviving in the crowd after all. Yan Ran comforted him: "Brother An Ran, in fact, you and I and Brother Tairan are lonely people in our bones. Fame and fortune are not attractive to us, as long as we take care of our hearts, then what about laughing at life? ”

An Ran smiled: "You are so young, how can you say such a thing!" It's like we've gone through the weather. ”

Yan Ran sighed: "Brother An Ran, sometimes I really feel that I am very old, many people, many things can be seen through at a glance, so it is not interesting. I know it's not good, and I want to be stupid, but it's not something I can control. ”

Enron was silent. She knew that she had also experienced vicissitudes, especially in her relationship with Tranquility, which had quite a few twists and turns, so she had created a seven-hole exquisite heart. He took Yanran's hand and said, "In the future, you have one more relative by your side, so if Xie Tairan doesn't live with you, I won't let him go." ”

Yanran smiled: "He won't live with me, I'm afraid it will make him sad." She sat down beside him and spoke brightly. Those words that couldn't even be said to Tairan finally had a place to say them.

An Ran listened and was speechless for a long time. The two of them were still looking at the stars in the sky. Yanran remembered that the night she left Huangzhou, he and Minglang were also watching the stars in the pavilion, and finally fell asleep, I don't know if he was also looking at the stars at this time. Xie Anran's deep voice came: "Yanran, at a critical moment, you must ask your heart, don't think about anyone, just ask your heart, and you will make a choice that you will not regret." ”

Yanran nodded. She is always considerate of other people's feelings, and many times she goes against her own wishes. In the end, I will mistake myself and others.

"I see, Brother Enron. I have long been connected to Tairan, and we cannot be separated in this life. It's just that we need to wait five years. And Minglang, he is the person I care about in my heart. It's different. ”

An Ran nodded.

The next morning, everyone got up, and after cleaning up, Uncle Cui put An Ran into the carriage, and everyone got into the carriage. Through the window of the carriage, Xie Anran watched the swamp gradually retreat and gradually disappear from his sight. But there is no sorrow or joy in my heart, and I am calm and safe. His father died, Xie Zhenyu died, and his half-brother became emperor. He has no regrets or worries in this life. I only hope that a pair of legs will regain consciousness as soon as possible, no longer drag others down, and spend this life calmly and steadfastly.

The group once again crossed the mountains and rushed to Yongzhou.

Along the way, Yanran served Xie Anran wholeheartedly, giving him injury medicine and massaging his legs every day. On July 27, they entered Yongzhou City one day earlier than expected, and Xie Anran's legs actually felt a little, so that others could stand up. Xie Anran was so excited that tears flowed out.

The sword and the book picked up Xie Anran in the inn, and Yanran returned to the palace with the two guards of wind and rain.

In front of Qixiang Palace, Yunshang Yunni and a group of attendants knelt down to welcome the princess. Yan Ran hurriedly entered the door, calling her brother in a loud voice. She was going to tell him that she had found the agarwood bone, and that she had brought back Brother Enron; She was to tell him that she had arrived two days early and had lived up to their vows; She also had to tell him how much she missed his arms, his taste.

In front of the door of the study, she saw Xie Tairan, still dressed in white, but his face was whiter than his clothes. Beside him, stood Guo Tinglan with a smile on her face.

Yan Ran was stunned. How did she end up here? Why was his face full of sadness? (To be continued.) )
