Chapter 115: Zhu Pingzhai
"Sister." Yan Bing affectionately grabbed the arm of the girl in red.
Xu Ning stood in the crowd and couldn't help but look carefully at the woman under the tree. is really a little similar to Yan Bingchang, with wavy black hair flying slightly, slender phoenix eyebrows, big eyes, and a light posture, the age of the two sisters should not be much different.
Compared with Yan Bing's playfulness and agility, her sister looks much quieter and more charming, perhaps because she wears the costume of a Central Plains girl.
The girl in red looked at the dozens of people in front of her, and asked quietly: "Bing'er, I see that these people look tired and frightened, and they have some injuries, I don't know where you brought them from?" ”
Yan Bing was about to tell her that an old man with a rickety figure walked out of the crowd, it was the patriarch of the Hongshan clan, and he said tremblingly: "We are all Hongshan people who live near Tianchi, and we have to flee everywhere because we are avoiding pursuit. ”
The old man coughed, took Yan Bing's hand, and continued gratefully: "Fortunately, I met this girl on the road......
He walked into the crowd again and pulled Xu Ning out, and finished speaking: "And this son, who saved me and other dying people, escorted him all the way here."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, his eyes flashed with tears, and his expression was very excited. The rest of the Hongshan clan suddenly shouted "Engong" and knelt on the ground in unison.
Xu Ning only felt embarrassed and panicked, and hurriedly helped everyone up with Yan Bing.
The girl in red understood eight or nine points in her heart after hearing this, nodded, slapped her two palms lightly, and a middle-aged burly man flashed out of the thatched house, walked up to the girl in red, and saluted with both hands with a respectful expression.
The girl in red pointed to these people in front of her and said, "Ah Hu, you take these guests to dinner first, and then prepare a change of clothes for them, and I will come over later to arrange a place for them to live." ”
Ah Hu said and beckoned everyone to go with him, and Xu Ning was about to follow, but he was grabbed by a pair of soft and boneless little hands.
Yan Bing grabbed him and said with a smile: "Could it be that you are also hungry and panicked?" ”
Xu Ning hehe, and said softly: "I am very nervous when I see your sister, can you let me avoid it?" ”
Yan Bing's small mouth curled, categorically rejected him, pulled Xu Ning to the girl in red, and introduced: "Sister, this is Xu Gongzi, and he is also my half-captured Langjun." ”
Xu Ning was shocked when he heard this, cold sweat was pouring down his head, and he scolded in his heart, why are you so shameless and shameless, this is not the same as suing others You and I have a skin-to-skin relationship.
The girl in red was also stunned when she heard this, and looked at Xu Ninglai carefully, looking at his sword eyebrows and starry eyes, his aura was magnificent, and his figure was majestic and heroic. I couldn't help but secretly admire: "My sister's vision is really good, this son is extraordinary." ”
She looked at Xu Ning standing dumbfounded with her head down, with a look of sincere fear, and she almost couldn't help laughing, so she forcibly suppressed her laughter, cleared her throat, and introduced herself: "The little woman is Yan Bing's sister Yan Qing, the son doesn't have to be restrained, this is a place outside the world, and there is no need to pay attention to too much red tape." ”
Xu Ning listened to her very tactfully and kindly, so he was a little relieved, raised his head, and saluted respectfully.
"Okay, okay, you don't have to be so outside." Yan Bing is a straight person, looking at his trembling appearance, he is angry and pitiful, "Come with me to change your clothes first, there are still important things to do later." ”
Yan Bing took out a small cloth bag full of colorful fairy orchid seeds from his arms, handed it to his sister, and said aggrievedly: "If it weren't for him, not to mention that he couldn't bring back the flower seeds, he would have lost his life." ”
Yan Qing was puzzled, and was about to ask, Yan Bing had already grabbed Xu Ning's hand and walked towards the back.
The two of them walked slowly along the grassy path side by side, and the bamboo fences of the huts on both sides gradually increased, presumably in the middle of the village, and from time to time they could meet people sitting under the trees or in the corridor to enjoy the coolness. Yan Bing looked calm and only replied with a smile, but Xu Ning was uncomfortable in her back, and her arm was firmly grasped by her and couldn't break free, so she had to lower her head as much as possible, just hoping to arrive soon.
Walking through the denser areas of these houses, the two entered a fruit grove again, and colorful fairy orchids can also be seen everywhere, although these tall flowers are not as many as those seen in the underground ancient city, they are also growing everywhere in patches, illuminating the entire fruit grove as if it were day.
Xu Ning asked: "There is a scene full of vitality here, where is there any demonic poisonous mist?" ”
Yan Bing pointed to the sky above his head, Xu Ning looked up, and gasped for cold air, only to see a gray patch in the air, and the fog covered most of the moonlight like a dark cloud, and it was hazy and unclear. It turned out that the light here was actually emitted by the colorful fairy orchid.
I remembered that I had recklessly thrown a big stone into the blood pool last time, and almost caused a big disaster, but seeing that these colorful fairy orchids were growing very well, my guilty mood also improved slightly.
This forest is full of fruit trees, there are many varieties, what star fruit, walnut, and apricot trees, pear trees, etc., all grow together, he turned his head around, Yan Bing asked curiously, "What are you looking for?" ”
Xu Ning muttered, "I'm looking for the kind of yellow-skinned fruit you picked for me yesterday, what is it called Ice Spirit Fruit." ”
Yan Bing smiled and told him that the fruit tree grew extremely tall, because the air poisoning mist was too strong, even if it could survive, it would not bear fruit, Xu Ning then understood.
As they walked out of the orchard, a slowly flowing stream appeared in front of them, and the water was like a flowing rainbow under the light of the colorful fairy orchids.
When the two walked to the middle of the wooden bridge, Xu Ning pulled Yan Bing to sit on the bridge deck, took off his shoes, and his feet could be immersed in the water, the water temperature was extremely cold, which made people feel refreshed.
"This stream is the snow water that flows down from the peak of the ancestors, which is not only clear and thorough, but also has a hint of sweetness." Yan Bing sued him.
Xu Ning sat on the bridge deck, the cool breeze caressing his body, taking away the fatigue of the day. But I feel that this place is extremely quiet, away from all the distractions of the world, if you can live in this paradise, it is simply the dream of the fairy life.
He was infected by the tranquility and serenity here, gently took Yan Bing into his arms, and looked at the innocent and clear eyes on her white and flawless face, Xu Ning secretly thought to himself: "When all my things are done, if I am still alive, I will come here to stay with you for the rest of my life and have children." ”
They sat in the bridge for a long time before they continued their way towards a valley.
Yan Bing told him: "This valley is the intersection of the Ancestors Peak, and the old patriarch you will see later lives in it." ”
I saw that the Ancestors Peak was like a huge tower piercing through the clouds, and the top could not be seen at a glance, and it was serialized with the surrounding peaks and mountain ranges. The valley is also dotted with simple huts and wooden huts, and the lights are sparse.
Yan Bing took him to climb a slope paved with stone steps, and a small pavilion with a bamboo and wood structure built according to the mountain stones among the flowers and trees appeared in front of Xu Ning's eyes.
Walking through the courtyard made of bamboo strips, the two entered the house, Yan Bing lit a candle, and under the orange light, the small living room was cleaned up extremely neatly, and it was Yan Bing's residence at a glance.
Yan Bing hung the horn bow and quiver on the wall, climbed the wooden ladder lightly, and after a while, took out two sets of clothes from it, pointed to one of them and said, "This set was left by my father, he is as tall as you, and it should fit well." ”
"Lingzun him? ......" Xu Ning saw that the smile on Yan Bing's face gradually hardened, and he didn't dare to ask more.
Yan Bing exhaled and said calmly: "My father died in battle when I was born, and my mother died of depression not long after, this was a long time ago. ”
Xu Ning took the clothes from her hand, and was shocked to find that it was a set of gorgeous thin shirts with exquisite workmanship, and couldn't help but be puzzled. Yan Bing looked at him in surprise and said with a smile: "You have also seen what my sister and the villagers here are wearing, you shouldn't make such a fuss." ”
Xu Ning was still puzzled, some of the villagers here were dressed like people in the Central Plains, and some were also wearing animal skin clothes, could it be that people from several continents in the Barbarian King City also lived together here?
Yan Bing explained: "Including me, the people living here are all ancient tribes in the forest, but you must know that the ancient city of the wilderness was actually built slowly by our ancestors, and there is more contact and communication with the people of the Central Plains, so naturally many customs will be affected." I dressed up like that so as not to attract attention. ”
Xu Ning still didn't understand anything when he heard her. Yan Bing took him into a small cubicle in the courtyard again, and used a bamboo pipe to lead the mountain spring into a large wooden barrel, which was filled with water.
After Xu Ning bathed, he put on the clothes given by Yan Bing, but it was only a little tighter, and it basically fitted. Yan Bing changed into a light blue waist-cinching skirt, like a hibiscus out of the water, delicate and gorgeous.
Xu Ning was stunned and swallowed his saliva.
Yan Bingqiao's face was shy, seeing that he looked impatient, he was also moved, and pulled Xu Ning into the boudoir soft couch, and the two of them couldn't help but talk to me for a long time.
Xu Ning remembered that he was extremely hungry, and Yan Bing said, "Let's go, follow me to the patriarch." Now I guess my sister and they have prepared a banquet for you. ”
Xu Ning was overjoyed when he heard this, the mountains and rivers here are so beautiful, his lover is on his side, and he almost forgot the purpose of his visit.
Yan Bing pursed her mouth with her hand and let out a crisp whistle, which startled Xu Ning a lot, not knowing what she was doing. After a while, I heard a stabbing sound in the courtyard, and faintly heard the low roar of wild beasts.
Xu Ning looked out, and sure enough, he saw a black and fierce leopard in the courtyard staring at him with green eyes, and roared at him motionlessly.
Yan Bing actually walked directly towards this ferocious beast, Xu Ning was shocked, and eagerly stopped: "What are you going to do?" ”
"Brother, don't panic, this night leopard is a mount raised in the village, you don't have to worry." Yan Bing was already riding on the back of this black beast, grabbed the collar around the neck of the night leopard with his hand, and beckoned Xu Ning to sit up.
Xu Ning walked over slowly, thinking that these Yan people were also powerful enough, even such a ferocious beast could be tamed and raised, and remembered the scene when Yan Bing played with the Heavenly Winged Horned Eagle Beast on the Gathering Spirit Peak that day, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart.
So he jumped up and sat behind Yan Bing, wrapping his hands around her waist from behind.
Yan Bing whispered close to the night leopard's ear, "Take us to the elder residence in the back mountain." ”
The big black guy really understood her words, turned around, and rushed directly towards the back mountain, like a cloud driving through the fog.
It turned out that there was still some distance from the back mountain, and the road was tortuous and difficult to walk, but the leopard ran very fast in the night, jumped and flew between the mountains and rocks, and after a while, he came to a stone house in the back mountain, and stopped.
"It's here."
Yan Bing said, jumped on the back of the beast with Xu Ning, and walked towards the stone house built of huge stones.
