***********************

knocked on the door three times in a row without answering, Wang Yuehan slowly pushed open the door, and a pungent smell of wine came to his face, so that Wang Yuehan and the maid Xiaozhen covered their noses.

Wu Ming unconsciously turned over, the quilt continued to sleep, the even snoring disappeared, and the sound of long breathing sounded.

"This scruffy drunkard." Xiao Zhen couldn't help but mutter.

Wang Yuehan glared at Xiao Zhen reproachfully, walked to the fireplace lightly, and looked at it carefully for a moment, his face was full of doubts: the fireplace made of regular block mountain stones is definitely a rare novelty, it seems rough but strong and ingenious, and the textures of the red and black stones are smooth and intertwined, and the combination has a unique beauty.

Wang Yuehan had only seen this kind of similar thing from foreign pictures, and felt very novel for a while, thinking of the simple and beautiful spire shape of the cottage, the chic terrace in front of the door two feet above the ground, the thick log pillars and the pine railings that exude natural fragrance, and then looked at the double-layer panel-like walls in the house, stools made of tree roots, simple and practical furniture and other items, and found that the whole cottage was full of unique style, rough and bright, but it also revealed a warm atmosphere.

Xiao Zhen did not have Wang Yuehan's vision and mood, pouted to add firewood to the fireplace, walked quickly to the back door to open the door, in order to blow away the pungent smell of wine all over the house, pushed open the back door but was attracted by the spring water attracted by the long-haired bamboo flying frame, gurgling water gushed out from the bamboo tube port in front of the eaves, and fell on the slope of the large stone slab on the ground, the amount of water is not small but the sound of water is not big, the whole arrangement seems simple, but it is very exquisite and convenient.

Wang Yuehan also came out, and the two looked around and whispered, very curious about the sleeping drunkard in the room with such exquisite skills.

Standing for a moment, Wang Yuehan bent down to lift the wooden bucket soaked in dirty clothes, Xiao Zhen immediately grabbed it, picked up the soap corner on the side with water, and began to scrub it neatly. Wang Yuehan found the palm bamboo broom by the back door, returned to the house to clean, cleaned carefully, and then found a cloth towel dipped in water and wrung it out, and carefully wiped the few pieces of furniture in the house, and even the surface of the fireplace was not missed.

After tidying up, fine beads of sweat appeared on the tip of Wang Yuehan's nose, and her sideburns were soaked with sweat, meekly sticking to her creamy face, Xiao Zhen had washed a few dirty clothes, and surprisingly did not hum half a word of complaint.

Both of them had a little shyness on their faces, but they were naturally not far-fetched, as if all this should be done, not to mention that Wu Ming's cold temperament has an indescribable attraction, just Wu Ming's righteous act of saving people in danger made the two of them full of gratitude, and doing something for Wu Ming at this time was really insignificant compared to the grace of saving lives.

A gust of mountain wind blew, Wang Yuehan hurriedly went to close the front door, the fire in the fireplace stopped swaying, the roaring burned multiplied the brightness, and the aroma of the camphor wood burning in the furnace slowly diffused in the warm cabin.

Wang Yuehan stood behind the closed door, looking at the clean and tidy room, and his gaze fell on Wu Wei's well-defined face, with long sword eyebrows, a straight nose, and a resolute chin with a short beard that was slightly upturned, it was so familiar but so unfamiliar, this handsome face looked so handsome and reckless against the backdrop of messy long hair.

Unconsciously, Wang Yuehan's heart was pounding, and at the same time, the doubts in her heart became thicker and thicker: too similar, too similar!

"How are you?"

Wu Ming, who woke up, looked surprised, and looked at Wang Yuehan, who was so frightened that he jumped up, in a daze, and couldn't believe his eyes.

Xiao Zhen, who heard the noise, ran in quickly, and when she saw that there was nothing to do, she went out to dry her clothes again.

Wu Ming hurriedly grabbed the robe and put it on his body, quickly raised his legs and got out of bed to put on his shoes, walked to the fireplace and poured himself a bowl of water unhurriedly, put down the copper kettle and sat at the low table, looking at Wang Yuehan, who was gradually recovering, without saying a word.

Wang Yuehan calmed down, hesitated for a moment and sat down opposite Wu Ming, took a bowl of water handed by Wu Wei, put down the bowl and brushed away the hair that covered his face: "I'm sorry, I knocked on the door when I came in, and the door was not locked, and I saw that you didn't wake up after coming in, and it was not good to wake you up." ”

Wu Ming didn't know what to say in the face of the good-tempered Wang Yuehan, drank a large bowl of water in one gulp, poured another full glass, rubbed his swollen temples and asked, "Today is not the day of incense, why did you come here?" ”

"We are here to thank you, we couldn't find you on the day of the Qinglong Festival, saying that you entered the mountain, and it is estimated that you are at home today." Wang Yuehan's voice was gentle and calm.

There was a sound of shaking clothes from the backyard, Wu Ming frowned, paused for a while and whispered: "Forget about the matter in the past, there is no need to worry about it." ”

Wang Yuehan trembled slightly, feeling a little warm in her heart, and the sentence "There is no need to linger in your heart" is not a kind of understanding and an explanation? Wu Ming's seemingly bland words made Wang Yuehan quite moved in his heart.

Wang Yuehan lowered her head and drank saliva to hide the panic in her eyes, for a long time, she gently put down the bowl and mustered up the courage to stare at Wu Ming's indifferent eyes: "I have inquired for a long time, but I only know that your surname is Wu, and the villagers under the mountain said that you are the Taoist chief from the ancestral court of Longhu Mountain, and you have superb medical skills and a hot intestine ...... ancient road."

"What do you want to say?" Wu Ming interrupted Wang Yuehan's words a little rudely.

Wang Yuehan bit her lip: "You look very similar to a person, that person is my brother, the second phase of the Guangzhou Huangpu Military Academy, who died in the battle of Wuchang in the Northern Expedition four years ago, and his photo is hung in the main hall of our house." ”

Wu Ming stared at Wang Yuehan's eyes: "Don't you think it's ridiculous?" There are many people in the world who look alike, I am a child of a poor family, I grew up in the mountains from childhood to adulthood, and I don't seem to have anything to do with the brother you mentioned, right? Miss Wang, if there is nothing else, please go back! ”

Xiao Zhen returned to the house after drying her clothes, and stomped her feet with hatred when she heard this, Wang Yuehan stood up sadly, and was just about to apologize and leave, when she suddenly remembered something, and slowly raised her head to look at Wu Ming's eyes: "Mr. Wu, how do you know that my surname is Wang?" ”

Wu Ming quickly reacted: "I heard what Junior Brother Chengyuan said, saying that you came to me twice. There are some things that shouldn't have been said, but I still want to tell you that I will leave this place in a few days for a long journey, and if Miss Wang wants to thank you in person, you have already done it. ”

"Why are you like that? The people under the mountain said how good you are, I didn't expect you to be such a person, Miss and I have gone up the mountain four times in order to thank you, is it easy? Xiao Zhen couldn't help but complain loudly.

"Jane!" Wang Yuehan quietly pulled Xiao Zhen, Xiao Zhen leaned on Wang Yuehan's arm, and glared at Wu Ming angrily.

Wu Ming stood up: "Little girl, don't be domineering and fight for a while, if you don't pay attention to it again, I'm afraid that in the future, I will not only harm yourself, but maybe it will also affect your young lady." ”

"You ......" Xiaozhen was speechless, and suddenly remembered that the old man at home had scolded himself for this, and he had said the same sentence "Disaster comes from the mouth", and he also vowed to correct it.

"Xie Lu, Mr. Wu's teachings!" The empathetic Wang Yuehan relieved Xiao Zhen, she knew that although Wu Ming's words were ugly, it was also for Xiao Zhen and herself.

"No thanks, you've already thanked you."

After Wu Ming finished speaking, he returned to the bed, quickly put on his shoes and buckled his robe, strode over to open the door, walked to the cliff in the front yard, looked up at the sky that was gradually accumulating dark clouds, and felt irritable for no reason.

The mountain wind becomes stronger, the towering ginkgo trees are sprinkled with yellow leaves, and the bamboo is slightly swaying and the forest is undulating, and it looks like the sky is about to change.

Wang Yuehan and Xiaozhen, who were wearing tweed coats, came behind Wu Ming, and saw Wu Ming staring at the dark clouds in the sky motionless, with long hair fluttering in the cold wind, Wang Yuehan was suddenly a little stupid.

After stopping for a moment, Wang Yuehan politely said goodbye to Wu Ming again, and hurriedly left with Xiao Zhen with a tight scarf. Walking through the path covered by the bamboo forest, Wang Yuehan's heart suddenly tingled, she seemed to see the melancholy that could not be concealed in the depths of Wu Ming's indifferent eyes, and felt that Wu Ming's tall back looked extremely lonely.

Wang Yuehan suddenly stopped and looked back, her beautiful eyes were flushed, she didn't know why she was like this, and she didn't know why she was so lost and sad, she only knew Lu Dao, maybe from now on, she would never see this shadow that suddenly broke into her dream.

The two walked out of the mountain gate and hurried down hundreds of meters along the winding stone steps, when the howling wind suddenly stopped, and the sky and earth were gray and quiet. A few bean-sized ice rains fell, clattering on the stone steps, and Xiao Zhen looked at the sky in panic, and found a vast curtain of rain hanging under the western sky, which soon submerged the mountains in the distance.

Xiao Zhen was so anxious that she pulled Wang Yuehan and ran to the sunken rock wall next to the mountain road: "Miss is here to hide from the rain first, you are just sick, you will definitely fall ill again if you get wet, I ran down the mountain and called Uncle Mao Lin to bring an umbrella to pick you up, and there are clothes on the carriage." ”

"Xiao Zhen, be careful!" Wang Yuehan rushed Xiao Zhen who ran down the mountain and shouted loudly.

The raindrops became heavier and heavier, and the hail mixed with the rain curtain fell down all over the sky, and the sky and the earth were filled with the roar of the wind and the sound of rain.

The splashing rain did not leak through Wang Yuehan, who was clinging to the rock wall, and the water stains on her face flowed, and her whole body was shivering with cold.

Suddenly, an oil-paper umbrella covered the gap above the rock wall, and Wang Yuehan, whose eyes were misty, smelled the familiar breath, she slowly opened her eyes, and stared at Wu Ming's familiar face with a complicated expression.

Wu Ming's half-body clothes were already soaked, and water beads rolled down from between its wet long hair, but a pair of eyes were still so indifferent, and after asking Wang Yuehan if she could walk around by herself, she took the lead in walking in front of Wang Yuehan and escorted her slowly down the slippery stone steps.

Wang Yuehan followed cautiously, seeing Wu Ming walking half a step in front of his side, but holding the entire umbrella on his head, bursts of excitement and sadness surged in his heart for no reason, and uncontrollable tears burst out of his eyes, mixed with rain rolling down.
