Chapter 9: Surprise
"Yan Xi!" "Mu Yanxi!" "Miss Mu!"
He Nuo shouted Mu Yanxi with various titles, and He Nuo's voice echoed in the empty valley, and the layers of voices overlapped, like the sound of waves for a while, but no one answered.
He Nuo quickened his pace, in the past, he had to rest three times in the middle of the mountain to climb the mountain, and this time, he almost climbed the mountain in one breath, he himself felt strange, but he thought about it flawlessly, looked around, there were layers of dense forests on one side, the branches and leaves were swaying in the wind like waves, and on the other side was a steep cliff, and below was a cliff.
He Nuo always thought that something was wrong when he climbed the mountain, and at this moment all kinds of thoughts rolled in his mind, and he understood what was wrong: this mountain top is hidden and uninhabited, how did the famous family know that Mu Yanxi can jump off the cliff here, Yanxi is alive and well, why did he jump off the cliff?
"Live a good life......" He Nuo thought of this, shook his head, and nodded fiercely, "Could it be that Yanxi's strange illness?" ”
At this moment, on the edge of the steep cliff, He Nuo found a silk scarf, light blue, decorated with white geese.
He Nuo's heart was pounding, he approached slowly, grabbed the stone of the cliff with both hands, leaned forward, leaned out his left foot, and with the help of the length of his body, he carefully hooked the silk scarf, and then slowly moved his body forward, He Nuo's body balance was good, seeing that the silk scarf finally left the slope of the cliff, he finally made a sudden leap, and then turned over and firmly grasped the silk scarf.
A familiar feeling touched He Nuo's heart, but he felt a sadness in his heart, "The silk scarf is a goose...... Then she ......."
Geese are generally gray, but Mu Yanxi stubbornly said that he had seen white geese and rusted them on his silk scarf with his own hands, and there is no second person in the world who has such a silk scarf.
This mountain originally had no name, He Nuo often took Mu Yanxi to climb the mountain here, and the child's heart rose, and the two of them combined it, and named the mountain Yannuo Mountain.
Geese are stubborn animals, going south in winter and returning north in spring, year after year, never changing.
The two of them named Yannuo Mountain, and they both have a hope in their hearts, hoping that their friendship will be like a wild goose, and the promise will not change, of course, these friendships may only be the friendship in the hearts of children.
He Nuo pinched this silk scarf, he was never really afraid of losing anything when he was a child, but now there are a lot of things in his chest that want to come out, and he can't vent anything.
"Yan Xi!" He Nuo roared.
The valley began to echo again, "geese, geese, geese"
It's like a laugh.
He Nuo rubbed his eyes, a little astringent, but he didn't shed tears, maybe he couldn't believe that Yanxi would really jump for some reason.
In the evening, it always gets dark very quickly.
Two black dots suddenly appeared in the sky, He Nuo thought he had seen it wrong, and rubbed his eyes again, but it was getting darker and darker, and he didn't know if he was wrong.
But suddenly the two black dots suddenly brightened, because their tails seemed to be smeared with a bright light, and He Nuo couldn't see what they were.
But the scene that appeared next will never be forgotten by He Nuo.
Two black dots suddenly burst, fireworks filled the sky, and then countless fireworks on the ground rose into the air, blooming and converging in the air, the continuous rotation of light, the deployment of colors, the whole canopy seemed to become a huge canvas, with flowing colors on it, not only beautiful, but also a kind of magnificence. Then there was a horizontal light, and a line of words appeared side by side.
He Nuo didn't see what was written clearly at first, but as the light became more and more intense, He Nuo finally saw that it was six words, but the words seemed to be smashed in his heart: Happy birthday He Nuo.
He Nuo understood everything, "It's really hard." He Nuo gently wiped the corners of his eyes, this time he was really crying.
At this time, he heard footsteps behind him, and He Nuo turned back suddenly.
Three people appeared.
Meng Ruo, Meng Xiaochen, and Mu Yanxi.
Meng Ruo walked in the front and grimaced at He Nuobi, "It's my idea to deliberately drop a scarf, Yanxi is nervous next to her, she seems to be afraid that you will jump down too, but I know that you will not be so fragile." ”
"You ......," He Nuo's voice choked up.
Mu Yanxi smiled and said, "This birthday is memorable enough, right?" It's a little joke to deepen the impression, so that you can get there as quickly as possible. ”
"Unforgettable." He Nuo admitted.
"Brother Meng did it." Mu Yanxi said, "Canglang has some unique craftsmanship, and we Jinyang people can't do these fireworks." ”
Meng Xiaochen took a step forward and shook He Nuo's hand.
He Nuo shook it back hard, knowing that this prince of the Rong clan didn't have too many words, but they were friends these days.
"Thank you." He Nuo looked at the three friends in front of him, felt that they were extremely cute, and silently muttered in his heart, "I'm fourteen years old." ”
……
He Nuo was still the first time to Mu Baichuan's study.
At that time, the right minister was writing hard at the desk, and when he saw He Nuo coming, he nodded and motioned for him to sit down.
At this time, an old servant entered the door, Mu Baichuan whispered a few words, and the old servant took the order and left.
Mu Baichuan smiled warmly at He Nuo, "I prepared a snack for you, you can eat casually first, there are a lot of recent reports from the Southern Border Guard, and I still have a few things to deal with soon." ”
He Nuo's movements were a little restrained, and he hurriedly waved his hand, "Don't be in a hurry." ”
After a while, the servant who had just left came up with a disc made of mahogany, with three blue and white porcelain plates on the disc, and two stacks of flavor plates next to the porcelain plates.
He Nuo took a closer look, and one blue and white porcelain plate contained plum blossom cakes, and the other two plates seemed to be meat, but he couldn't tell what kind of meat it was. Of the two stacks of flavors, one is almost transparent and the other has a faint amber color.
Mu Baichuan's eyes drifted to He Nuo from time to time, and seeing that he was motionless, he said with a smile, "Just eat more, you will like it." ”
He Nuo nodded, picked up the plum blossom cake and took a bite, the entrance was slightly bitter, and the more he chewed, the more a sweet taste came out, permeating the tip of the tongue, which was very refreshing.
He Nuo's eyes looked at the other two plates, sandwiched a piece at random, slightly dipped in the amber flavor plate, biting into the mouth, there was a tender feeling, after the taste dish was soaked, the fishy smell was not so rushed, but He Nuo still tasted it, it was only medium-rare mutton.
He Nuo sandwiched another piece of meat from another plate, and was so shocked that he almost spit it out, but out of politeness, he had to chew and swallow it.
It was a plate of complete raw beef.
However, the more He Nuo chewed, the more strange he felt, it seemed that he was born to like to eat such raw food, and it became more and more delicious, he picked up another piece and dipped it in the transparent stack of flavor dishes, the entrance was cold, as if it had been chilled, He Nuo swallowed it in a big gulp.
Looking at He Nuo's actions, a smile appeared on Mu Baichuan's face.
He Nuo felt a little scared, it was the first time he had seen this Mu Xiangye, it could be said that both parties were not very familiar, but he seemed to have been seen through by this Mu Xiangye from head to toe. Most people don't eat raw food like this, He Nuo knows cooking skills very well, and knows that cooking food through cooking can bring out more delicious food, but how did this Mu Xiangye prepare such a strange snack, and even expected, "You will like it." ”
He Nuo sandwiched a quick raw beef, which was actually smeared with a layer of salt, which was pickled and had a better flavor, and after a while, the two plates of raw meat were all wiped out by He Nuo, and the plate that seemed to be exquisite actually had plum blossom cakes, but there was a large plate that did not move.
Not long after He Nuo finished eating, Mu Baichuan finally closed the thick pile of books, took out a letter and instructed the servants at home to send it out quickly, He Nuo seemed to hear the words "Weiguo" and "Jiang's", but he felt that it was rude to eavesdrop, so he didn't listen carefully.
However, Mu Baichuan quickly walked over and said, "I'm really sorry to keep Nuo'er waiting for so long." ”
He Nuo shook his head again and again, and also burped.
Mu Baichuan snorted and asked, "Do you know what I asked you to do?" ”
He Nuo stared at Mu Baichuan, his heart beating.
"I think there's something I should let you know." Mu Baichuan said very slowly, as if He Nuo could understand every word, "You know that the Qianran meeting is about to be held, you really have to prepare well, the story still has to start from the Qianran meeting that year, it really changed the fate of too many people." ”
