Chapter 36: Up the Mountain
The sky is gradually breaking, the morning light is shining, and the air gradually shows a touch of pink, reflecting the Nine Heavens Peak Mountain, which is hazy above and below, and looks quite mysterious.
I saw a slightly larger figure carrying a bamboo tower on his back holding a smaller figure, at the foot of this mist-surrounded mountain, slowly climbing and walking.
The two of them looked a little hard walking, this mountain trail was originally rugged and difficult to walk, not to mention the heavy rain that fell during the catastrophe yesterday, which made this mountain road look even more potholed, mud twisted, very slippery and bumpy.
But the sides of the trail are in stark contrast.
There are green grass and wild flowers, trees are thick, high and low are scattered, look up and look up, only to see all kinds of plants more and more dense, the grass is more and more green, all with a piece of dampness and mist, like a fairyland on earth.
The two of them waded through the mud, and stopped from time to time, their eyes turned between the grass and trees, searching back and forth for traces of medicinal herbs, these two people were Zhou Jun and Xiao Luo.
Every time he started, Xiao Luo would turn his head and whisper to the governor beside him: "You have to catch me, this mountain road is very slippery, don't slip." ”
Zhou Jun is also very well-behaved every time, Xiao Luo always has a smile on the corner of his mouth when he hears it, and he continues to lead Zhou Jun forward.....
But said that the two of them were busy looking for nearly a day on the mountain, but Xiao Luo only sparsely lay a few medicinal materials in the basket, at this time Xiao Luo felt a little hungry, after all, he was not willing to eat the nest head in the morning, so he broke a small half and gave it to the little black cat, and now he is hungry, and he can't help but think:
"The governor must be hungry, and he didn't speak along the way... ”
With some embarrassment on his face, he said to the governor: "Governor, why don't we go down the mountain first, and come to the mountain tomorrow to pick medicinal herbs... ”
I saw Zhou Jun turn his face, Shui Lingling's big eyes looked at him carefully, looking at the slightly embarrassed dark face, and he didn't know what to think in his heart, so he pursed his mouth, and Qiong's nose was soft "Hmm~" and said, the well-behaved demeanor was as obedient as a little lady who had just married.
The honesty of the governor along the way made Xiao Luo a little uncomfortable, because the two of them were used to playing and playing, and the governor was full of ghost ideas to toss him, and it was the first time that such a serious governor had been made.
couldn't help but make Xiao Luo think that the governor hadn't eased up, but he estimated that it would be fine in two days, so he smiled and responded: "Okay, let's go down the mountain!"
But when the two of them were about to go down to the foot of the mountain, Xiao Luo suddenly stopped, and the curtain spread the hand that held the governor tightly, and then without saying anything, he ran quickly towards the grass beside the path, and ran until he reached a bronze thick tree that was more than three people high, and then raised his head and looked at it.
As everyone knows, Xiao Luo's letting go frightened Zhou Jun a lot, and Zhou Jun's good-looking big eyes instantly became panicked, and even his heart seemed to be empty, just standing on the mountain road in a daze, his eyes were a little hollow.
Because Zhou Jun immediately thought of Xiao Luo, who was dragging and couldn't move that day in the medicine field, and then the scene when he fell into the demon again, it was like digging his heart and lungs, and his mouth trembled involuntarily and whimpered:
"He's going to forsake me again ... "Tears are pouring out of my hazy eyes, and they don't stop.
Looking at Xiao Luo again, who knows the state of Zhou Jun at the moment, he is still trying to climb to the top of the trunk, and his eyes are still scanning every branch that spreads out of the main trunk from time to time, as if he is carefully selecting something.
When Xiao Luo took a fancy to a branch, his eyes lit up, and with some excited smiles on his face, he jumped up and rode on the branch that was extremely slender compared to Xiao Luo.
So he grasped the branch with both hands, and his body squeaked up and down, and the old bronze tree shook slightly, and the leaves were scattered all over the ground.
After a while, I only heard the two sounds of "squeak, click!" two sounds, Xiao Luo is legs between the branch and fell to the ground from several meters in the air, only to see Xiao Luo rarely did not howl in pain, but quickly pulled out the branch that was pressed under him, only to see that there were still some tender branches and leaves growing on it, just like that, he grabbed it in his hand and stared at it and smirked, I don't know what good things are thinking about in his head at the moment.
When Xiao Luo had seen enough, he grabbed the branches with both hands, fluttered up and drove away, and a few leaves on his body fell down his shabby cloth clothes, and ran back to the state monarch in a hurry.
When he ran to the side of Zhou Jun, he clamped the branch under his armpit, and continued to stretch out his hand to Zhou Jun's smooth little hand, and when he was about to lead, he found that Zhou Jun was stunned in his eyes, and he couldn't stop crying, Xiao Luo immediately panicked, and the branch clamped under his armpit fell to the ground instantly, and quickly turned around, pressed Zhou Jun's shoulders and asked anxiously: "How did you get it, Zhou Jun?"
Seeing that Zhou Jun still didn't reply, his cry seemed to be a little louder, and his little head shook slightly with the sobs, Xiao Luo then looked around in a panic and found that there was nothing unusual, what was going on?
Xiao Luo thought about it, and Yumu's head rarely opened up, so he looked at Zhou Jun and asked softly, "Did I run away suddenly, are you unhappy?"
I saw Zhou Jun looking up at him with tears in his eyes, Qiong's nose couldn't stop twitching, and his little mouth was also pouted and closed, looking like he had been greatly wronged.
Looking at Xiao Luo's eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, and he was also thinking in his heart:
"How can this state gentleman be so sensitive and crying in the past two days?, these tears from childhood to adulthood are almost lost by her in the past two days??.... Alas, hopefully in a few days it will be better......"
Seeing Zhou Jun's hopeful eyes looking at him, Xiao Luo couldn't help but explain:
"I just ran over and saw the bronze tree growing, thinking that its branches must be very tough, and as for this branch... I can't say yet, I want to give you a little surprise, hehe. ”
Xiao Luo seemed to think of Zhou Jun's happy appearance when he saw the surprise, and he didn't care that Zhou Jun was full of tears, so he couldn't stop smirking at Zhou Jun.
After laughing, he bent down and picked up the branch, continued to clamp it under his left armpit, got up and went to take Zhoujun's tender little hand, and said with a smile while holding it:
"Okay, it's a big man, how can you still live more and more and fall back, haha, I'll hold you this time and don't let go, okay, let's go home." ”
I saw that when Zhou Jun heard this, his beautiful big eyes regained a little bit of brilliance, and he didn't speak, just nodding his head with a tight mouth, and then raised his right hand and gently wiped a few tears, and when his hand was put down, the other little hand grabbed Xiao Luo tighter, and tilted his head slightly, with his slightly red and swollen big eyes, he stared at Xiao Luo deeply, as if he couldn't see enough.
Seeing that Xiao Luo was a little embarrassed, the old face of the disciple was red, but he couldn't see anything on his dark face, so he pretended to cough a few times, and said awkwardly:
"Then let's go......" He took a step as he spoke, and cautiously led the governor down the mountain.
