Knowing that he had been discovered, Bai Qiao, who was half-hiding, leaked out of his whole body, and used a somewhat frightened trill: "Uncle An, Xiaomo, I want to go to the mountains with you to have a look." ”

The master and apprentice were not surprised, Mo Jingting was quite willing to let her go with her, and An Zixian was a little worried about her.

"Then let's go together, you know the road well, so we can go faster." Mo Jingting said happily.

"It's just ......" An Zixian paused, "Don't you practice dancing?" Does your abba know you're here? ”

"I don't want to practice anymore, I asked for leave and came secretly." Bai Qiao pouted, "Yesterday's dance competition was not good, I really didn't have the mood to continue practicing, and Abba just didn't want me to make trouble for you, it didn't mean that I had to practice, hey......"

"In that case, let's go together," An Zixian smiled, "How familiar are you with this place?" ”

"It's okay, it should be fine," Bai Qiao happily walked over and took Mo Jingting's arm, "Let's go." ”

.......

The three of them left the locust poplar tree, followed the chaotic path, disappeared in the grass, under the sun, accompanied by the breeze, it was particularly comfortable.

I don't know how long it took, when I came to a fork, Bai Qiao hesitated: "The intersection to the left can lead to my cousin's previous address, and the intersection to the right has to take a detour, I haven't walked for a long time, and I don't know if it can be passed." ”

An Zixian looked around and said, "Is there a road to the mountains at your cousin's house?" ”

"Yes, yes, but you can't take the right path," Bai Qiao thought for a moment, "I know another way, which can save a lot of trouble, and it should be much better than this one to the right." ”

"Then let's try to avoid the crowd as much as possible," Mo Jingting looked at the intersection to the left, "Your cousin's house is now a scenic spot, so why don't you just go straight to the wrong road you said." ”

An Zixian also agreed with this statement and nodded in agreement.

Bai Qiao happily agreed, and led the master and apprentice to the intersection on the left.

When you reach the halfway point of the mountain, you will see the surrounding mountains, and when you look up, you will see the overlapping distant mountains stretching straight to the horizon.

When they went up further, the three of them were already immersed in thick clouds, and they could only see the top of the mountain, but not the foot of the mountain.

"Look there!" Bai Qiao suddenly stopped and stretched out his hand to point in a direction, "That's where my cousin used to live." ”

The master and apprentice immediately looked in the direction she pointed, and it was a small village, estimated to have dozens of families.

The village is all made of bamboo, called mie bar, with upper and lower stables, cuan and sleeping place connected together, retro and deep.

It seems to be a peach paradise, with mountain flowers, pastorals, bamboo branches, and clear water, all of which are intoxicating.

"It is worthy of being a scenic spot, and it is indeed desirable." Mo Jingting remembered the bird of paradise, the place where Bai Rong was worshiped as a goddess, the style was so similar, it turned out to be from here.

"Compared with the houses in the dam area, those are relatively old and simple, and now they can only be used as scenic spots, and no one lives in them." Bai Qiao said softly.

An Zixian silently admired, listened silently, and looked at the wind direction and the mountain road in the distance from time to time.

"Is there anything particular about the houses in the dam area and the mountains?" Mo Jingting said disapprerovitically.

"It's too obvious to be exquisite," Bai Qiao looked at Mo Jingting, "In the past, it was the difference between the poor and the rich." The houses in the dam area are three-bay main houses with kitchens and stables on both sides, and then surrounded by courtyard walls. ”

"Probably like a courtyard house." An Zixian said casually.

Mo Jingting nodded as if she didn't understand.

"Okay, let's not talk about these miles," Bai Qiao remembered that he was going to lead the way, "let's go quickly, it's not early, the weather here changes quickly, you have to return before dark, otherwise you will be frozen." ”

The three of them continued to move forward, and soon bypassed the scenic cottage and walked into the bottomless jungle.

The three of them didn't know how Bai Rong and Li Wenji would choose the route back then, so they only tried to maintain ordinary people's thinking and continue to advance towards the distant mountains, as if they were doing a simulation, hoping to think of some clues in what they saw and heard.

This way of thinking is productive when there are no clues available.

I don't know how long it took, but the sun was tilting a little westerly, and it looked like it was past noon.

Mo Jingting hurriedly looked at the time, and sure enough, it was almost two o'clock, and she didn't know it when she was constantly moving.

When Bai Qiao learned the time, he couldn't help but wonder: "It's really weird, if you don't see me go home at this time, Abba should have called me a long time ago." As he spoke, he checked his phone, and when he saw it, he shouted, "Why is there no signal on the phone, what's going on?" Isn't this era already fully covered? Then he scratched his head.

Hearing this, the master and apprentice immediately looked at their mobile phones, and found that it was the same as what Bai Qiao said, as if someone had deliberately blocked it.

The three of them immediately became alert, Bai Qiao had already begun to retreat, and in order to take care of her, the master and apprentice decided to send Bai Qiao back to the intersection and then turn back to continue deeper.

But the problem is that when they want to turn back, they find that when they look around, each direction is almost exactly the same, and they can't tell which direction the original road is.

Bai Qiao felt a chill in his heart, and then identified a direction behind him, insisting on walking for a while.

The master and apprentice were helpless, and accompanied her all the way for a while.

The sun was slanting a little more to the west, the wind was blowing and the leaves were falling, and the three of them seemed to be spinning in one place.

After walking for a long time, the three of them failed to find the intersection.

"Oh no, we might be lost." Bai Qiao said tremblingly, "It's all my fault, in fact, when I bypassed the cottage scenic spot, I was not familiar with the road, and I haven't walked it for many years, and this place has long changed." After speaking, he beat his chest with self-reproach.

An Zixian frowned, wanting to go up and comfort the little girl, but Mo Jingting took the lead.

"Don't worry, it's still early, we still have time to try it around."

Mo Jingting began to use her data analysis ability, but she could only analyze which plants and trees were harmful or harmless, and could not help herself identify the direction.

What to do? I thought I could take the initiative, but this time it's okay, it's big, did Li Wenji and them encounter the same situation at the beginning? It seems that it is, otherwise how would he be found hungry and faint in the mountain pass. Will you faint from hunger like they did?

After thinking about it, Mo Jingting said: "Your cousin was able to go out and stick to the mountain pass back then, I think the three of us should be able to go out faster." ”

An Zixian said: "Hurry up, don't let Xiao Qiao's father wait too long." ”。

Bai Qiao hummed, nervously holding Mo Jingting's arm, the three of them began to make marks as they walked, and they had to explore everywhere, but they didn't know that when they returned after making marks in each direction, they were no longer the same as before, and they fell deeper and deeper.
