Chapter 24: Parting
"Shi Lao, how do you get out of here?"
After being full of wine and food, Yanagi Buhui wiped his mouth and asked Old Man Shi.
"There are two ways out of here. But there's only one way to the outside world. ”
Old man Shi looked at Yanagi Buhui and said.
"What do you mean? A world that leads to the outside? That is, there is another way to get out, but not to the outside world? ”
Ye Mengfei seemed to have discovered the loophole in Old Man Shi's words all of a sudden, and asked casually while teasing Xiao Shi.
"Oh, no, it's the old man who didn't say it clearly enough."
Old man Shi seemed to have said something out, and hurriedly added, "You can go out of these two roads, but one of them is that when you come in, you go to that road, the terrain is dangerous, the road is narrow and tortuous, and it is still difficult for people to walk, let alone you are driving." So, you can't get out of that road. ”
"What about the other one?"
Ye Mengfei asked.
"The other is to follow the path by the stream behind the house, keep going through the peach blossom forest, and not far away is outside."
Old man Shi pointed to the small stream behind him and said.
"It's an easy road, isn't it? It won't be more difficult, right? ”
Yanagishita asked with trepidation, he was frightened by the previous experience.
"There are no more difficulties and obstacles in the future, and it will definitely be a smooth journey."
Old man Shi and Ying Feitian glanced at each other and said to Liu Xia.
"That's great."
Yanagishita Fuhui was so happy that she was about to jump.
"What's good? Where is our car still trapped and we can't get out? ”
Ye Mengfei raised her head, touched Xiao Shi's head and said, "I still want to give Xiao Shi the snacks we brought with me." ”
"What then?"
Yanagishita scratched his head habitually.
"Let's go out first, it's a big deal to come back later."
In the face of major decisions, Ye Mengfei is always so decisive and resolute.
This point, even Yanagi Buhui can't help but secretly admire.
To be honest, Ye Mengfei is really a little reluctant to leave this place.
She held the little stone's hand and refused to let go for a long time.
Little Stone also snuggled up to her closely, as if she was afraid that she would leave at once.
"Let's go, we can't disturb Shi Lao and them anymore."
Yanagi Buhui greeted Ye Mengfei.
He knew that if he didn't take the initiative, according to Ye Mengfei's character, he would definitely have to grind until the Year of the Monkey and Ma Yue.
"yes, got it."
Ye Mengfei stood up a little reluctantly, still holding a small stone in her hand.
"Since the two of you are leaving, it is inconvenient for the old man to stay longer, stay for a while, and the old man will send you out."
Old man Shi was also a little reluctant, and said while tidying up the messy tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks.
"Old Shi is too polite, since we already know the way, we can just go by ourselves, how dare we trouble Shi Lao again?"
Yanagi Buhui hurriedly waved his hand and excused himself.
"Where, where is the arrival of distinguished guests, it is already slack, not to mention the hurry to come and go, the hospitality is too lazy and inconsiderate, and the two of them are already the great joy of the old man."
Old man Shi insisted.
"Shi Lao has been busy for half a day, and it has been very hard. The matter of sending the two distinguished guests will be done by the next. Just in time for me to go back. ”
Ying Feitian, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke.
When you see each other, why break up?
Although this sentence is a bit exaggerated, it is really uncomfortable for Ye Mengfei at this moment.
Walking on the path by the stream, walking through the blooming peach blossom forest, surrounded by the fragrance of peach blossoms and the murmuring sound of flowing water, it is very pleasing to the eye and pleasing to the ear.
But as soon as she turned around, she could see Little Stone and Old Man Stone standing in front of the door of the hut, waving in the direction they had left, staring.
As soon as she saw these two people, especially Little Stone, she felt a little urge to cry.
Yes, she likes Little Stone and is reluctant to part with him.
I guess it's the same idea as a small stone.
She kept her head down and walked ahead.
Behind her, followed by Yanagi Buhui and Ying Feitian, the two looked at the back of Ye Mengfei walking, shook their heads in unison, sighed, and smiled again.
Suddenly, Ye Mengfei turned around and ran towards the hut.
The action is quick and fast.
Yanagishita Buhui just wanted to stop and ask, but before his arm was stretched out, Ye Mengfei had already run over from his side.
He glanced at Ying Feitian, and Ying Feitian also looked at him with a confused expression.
He watched Ye Mengfei run all the way to the little stone, bent down, half-squatted, holding the little stone, and put his mouth to the little stone's ear, as if he was saying something.
Then, Ye Mengfei tilted her head back, as if she had taken something from her neck, as if she was going to give it to Little Stone.
"No, you can't!"
Then, I heard Old Man Shi's frightened shout, and his voice seemed to be still trembling.
In the distance, Liu Buhui could only see Old Man Shi's nervous expression, a little stiff movements, as if he was making Xiao Shi refuse something.
Ye Mengfei's voice was so soft that he couldn't hear it.
But he could see that Ye Mengfei was holding on.
He watched Ye Mengfei hang a thing around the neck of the small stone with his own hands, what was that thing, Liu Shita Buhui couldn't see clearly.
But he remembered that it seemed to be a strangely shaped ornament that was neither copper nor iron.
Ye Mengfei once said that it was left to her by her grandfather, and she herself didn't know what those strange patterns on it meant.
That ornament was worn by Ye Mengfei closely.
In Yanagishita's unfavorable memory, it seems that even when the two of them were intimate, they never took it off.
What it was, in fact, they didn't know.
But at this time, she was willing to give such a rare thing to Xiaoshi, which was also something that Yanagi Buhui couldn't figure out with all his brains.
The little stone must have already worn that ornament.
Because, the old man Shi who was standing next to him was almost about to kneel down in front of Ye Mengfei, his expression was full of gratitude to Dade, and he even had a feeling of seeing death as if he were at home and never giving up.
Before Yanagishita Buhui could figure out what was going on, Ye Mengfei had already trotted all the way back.
The strange thing is that the current Ye Mengfei no longer has the feeling of despondency just now, as if she has just completed a difficult task, full of energy, and her expression is relaxed and natural.
Even the head that had been hanging down when he first left was now proudly raised.
When he walks, he is also heroic and sassy.
The willow behind him, Buhui and Ying Feitian, were stunned.
"How far is it to get out?"
Ye Mengfei, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped her bouncing steps and turned back to ask.
"How do I know?"
Yanagi Buhui was a little strange, "Listening to what Shi Lao said just now, just keep moving forward." ”
"Not for you."
Ye Mengfei snorted.
Yanagi Buhui smiled bitterly and looked at Ying Feitian.
"I went out right away, did you see the big tree in front of me? Behind the trees, there is the outside world. ”
Ying Feitian said with a smile on his face.
It is like a warm spring breeze that can blow away all the gloom and unhappiness.
