9. Assistance
In spring, Yesanpo has a unique scene, and the jungle on the mountain is lush and charming. Different from the summer when the mountains are full of green, the wild three slopes in spring are so tender that they can come out of the water with a pinch, walking in the mountain road, there are occasional mountain birds singing low, and the wild three slopes are more and more like a paradise forest, quiet and peaceful. Walking on such a mountain road, Ding Si and Bai Yi were not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery on both sides. Bai Yi just heard Bian Fengping say that the Holy Aunt and the Dharma Protector want to have a secret meeting with people here, but in such a big place as Yesanpo, where can they find the two of them? Fortunately, Ding Si often came here to play during the martial arts practice time in Niujiabao, and was very familiar with Yesanpo, thinking that since it was a secret meeting, it must be a relatively remote place, and after looking for a few places, it was a bad time, but he also found it, but he didn't expect to see the suspension bridge destroyed, and then look at the chaos of horses' hooves by the river, Ding Si and the two people were more sure that the Shenggu and his party must be in front.
Seeing that the river was turbulent, Bai Yi still refused to give up, picked up a stone and threw it in, only to hear the sound of "bang", the stone sank to the bottom of the water, and the sound knew that the river was quite deep. Looking at the surrounding area, there are no signs of ferrying.
Ding Si persuaded on the side: "White girl, there was a suspension bridge in this place, which was the only way to the clean room in front, and it was destroyed for no reason today, there must be someone with ill intentions who didn't want us to find the holy aunt." ”
Bai Yi said hatefully: "This must be someone who has set up a mechanism to prevent us from seeing the Holy Aunt." Now that I have fallen short, I am really unwilling. ”
Ding Si pondered and said: "It doesn't work here, and I think Shenggu and her party can't return from here, so they can only return to Beijing by ferry from the Juma River." Speaking of this, Ding Si was refreshed: "White girl, I know that there is a mountain road, although it is steep, but it is a shortcut to the Juma River, let's take a small road." ”
Bai Yi was overjoyed when he heard this, and when he followed Ding Si, he drove the horse and turned away.
The path was indeed difficult, overgrown with weeds and thorns, but fortunately they were on horseback, and although it was slow, it finally worked. After walking for about half an hour, both of them were sweating profusely and sweating all over their faces. Ding Si saw that although Bai Yi was a woman, he was very strong, and he didn't admire Bai Yi a little.
The two of them were walking with one heart, but suddenly they came to a place, and both of them were taken aback, it turned out that the trail was blocked tightly by a big rock, and it was really more difficult to pass through it than to climb to the sky. I thought it was a rockfall on the mountain and rolled down the road, but it just stuck the way.
Ding Si hurriedly dismounted and pushed this stone with his hands, this stone was more than one person high, no matter how hard Ding Si tried, but he didn't move.
Ding Si was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and Bai Yi hurriedly came over to help, and the two pushed for a long time, but there was no change, so they had to stop and look at each other.
Bai Yi was silent for a while, then he became discouraged, and said to Ding Si: "Ding Gongzi, they all say that there is no endless road to heaven..." ”
As he spoke, sweat fell.
Ding Si saw that Bai Yi was extremely disappointed and forced to press himself, and couldn't help but be extremely anxious, but after all, there was nothing he could do, and when he saw that it was getting late, he said: "What the white girl said is very true, when I return to the capital, I will think of other ways." ”
Bai Yi looked up at Ding Si and said gratefully, "Ding Gongzi, you are so good." ”
Ding Si heard Bai Yi say this for the second time, and the sweat kept falling, and he hurriedly hugged his fists and said, "You're polite."
The two of them were about to drive their horses back, but suddenly they heard a voice from below, as if they were chasing forward and backward.
I only heard an old male voice say, "Aunt Hui, Aunt Hui, don't be angry...... Today's ...... Ahh Cut wait for me. ”
Before she could finish speaking, an old woman spoke angrily: "Qi Laosan, I was going up the mountain to enjoy the scenery today, but you have to take me back to the road of the year." This thorny ground made me embarrassed and made me not in the mood for my birthday. You...... You pay me for my fiftieth birthday. ”
As soon as the words fell, Ding Si and Bai Yi saw two people appear in front of them, and these two people didn't expect someone to appear in this remote place, and they were also taken aback.
These two people are both crane-haired and childish, the man named Qi Laosan is tall and has a gray beard, and the woman named Huigu is petite, but her eyes are extremely charming, although she says "fiftieth birthday" in her mouth, she looks like she is thirty-five or sixteen years old. It's just that both of them are full of thorns and ears, and they look a little embarrassed.
Qi Laosan saw the two of them holding the horses, but he was happy in his heart, thinking that if I stepped forward to sweep the horses away, obediently, I would not have to be bothered by this thorn. But after thinking about it again, if Aunt Hui saw me do this, she would definitely not like it in her heart. He had no distinction between good and evil in his heart, but he had a concern in his heart, and he hesitated to do things, so he had to look at the two of them with his eyes, thinking that if they were willing to lend the horses to him, then he would be ......
In the middle of his thoughts, Bai Yi was already holding the horse and passing by him, Qi Laosan was hesitating to "grab or not to rob", but saw Bai Yi stop again, turned his head and said: "Mother-in-law, if you think that the ground is full of thorns and it is difficult to walk, you can ride this horse, I just want to walk alone." ”
Before Huigu could say anything, Qi Laosan was overjoyed, stepped forward in three steps and two steps, and said to Bai Yi: "Young man, good boy, I'll wait for your words." ”
Seeing that Qi Laosan was so eager, Huigu stomped her feet and shouted, "Qi Laosan, why are you embarrassed?" Bai Yi saw that although this Hui Gu was fifty years old, her gestures were infinitely charming, and she thought to herself that this woman didn't know how beautiful she looked when she was young.
Qi Laosan answered: "Aunt Hui, I made a wish just now, thinking that if these two young people are willing to lend their horses, I will definitely do a good deed every day, I mean today, not every day." Obediently, it turns out that God really heard it. Then he said to Bai Yi, "If you have anything you want to do, I will definitely do it for you." ”
Bai Yi thought to himself, I can't do what I want to do, how can you do it? I felt that I had a trace of kindness, and I was able to make the other party so happy, and my originally depressed mood was also a little joyful, and I was busy resigning.
Qi Laosan said hurriedly: "I have always done what I say, don't you think I can......'t do it" While speaking, he looked up and saw the stone blocked at the intersection, and hurriedly said: "Even if you move this stone, it is not a difficult thing." ”
When Bai Yi heard this, he was overjoyed, but he glanced at Qi Laosan again, but laughed at his illness and rushed to take medicine, the other party was just talking, how could it come true.
Qi Laosan was also taken aback when he saw Bai Yi's expression: "You...... You don't really want to move this stone away, do you? ”
