Chapter 233: Under the Mountain

Xue Rou smiled bitterly, "I won't tell you, Bai Gongzi." Brother Yuan and I have also seen this kind of poisonous snake before, and it is still in the illusion. The poisonous snake we saw in the illusion was already very fierce and poisonous, how could we not know it? Master said that he hadn't seen this snake for a long time, so he made the illusion for us to test. The illusion is already so ferocious, and the real snake is afraid that it will only become more venomous. ”

Yuan Junfeng put his arm around her thin shoulders, his strong chest pressed against her back, and he tried to create a sense of security for Xue Rou, "It's okay, Rou'er." And me. Didn't we come out last time, what are we afraid of? ”

Xue Rou looked at him, her heart warmed, and she felt a burst of sweetness for his intimacy, "I know, Brother Yuan." I'm not afraid at all. ”

remembered that she almost died on that barren mountain before, what Xue Rou thought at that time. She thought that as long as she was with Yuan Junfeng, it would matter if she died. I already have the person I love the most, so it may be a kind of fulfillment to lean together and close my eyes.

Bai Yuan looked at them steadily, and a little envy suddenly arose in his heart, what a deep feeling this is, so calm in the face of life and death. He sighed, "The relationship between Miss Xue and Yuan Gongzi is really moving, and even I admire it. Life can get such a confidant, it is indeed fulfilling. ”

He patted the dirt and dew on his clothes, and smiled gently, "Since Miss Xue and Yuan Gongzi must find the snake, then I will also accompany you." To tell you the truth, I did see that colorful snake on this hill the other day. ”

Xue Rou was overjoyed, "Really, Bai Gongzi, thank you so much." ”

Yuan Junfeng couldn't help but be moved by his spirit, "You don't have to be like this. All you have to do is tell me the exact location of Rou'er, and we can find it ourselves. ”

They are looking for medicinal herbs to save people, and they have to go when they are in danger. But for no reason to pull Bai Yuan into this dangerous zone, Yuan Junfeng was still unwilling in his heart. Looking at his scholarly appearance, he should stay in a safe place, chant poetry and paint, how good.

Bai Yuan smiled, "With Brother Yuan's words, I am satisfied." Besides, there must be danger? I believe in Brother Yuan's martial arts. However, it is a little too early to look for snakes, and they rarely come out during the day. In the middle of the night, it will come out. We stayed on this mountain only in the cold wind and rain, and I lived at the bottom of the mountain, so why don't you go to me and do something. You can also have a hot cup of tea, and then I'll take the two of you up the mountain. ”

Yuan Junfeng and Xue Rou both agreed with him. He relied on Bai Yuan to help them find all the medicinal materials, and now they have to take the initiative to take them to rest, of course, it couldn't be better. Xue Rou glanced at the person who was still a little uncomfortable walking in front of her, and secretly thought to herself that when she got to the bottom of the mountain, she still had to change Bai Yuan's dressing and apply a warm compress. In this way, the injured foot may get better faster.

As its name suggests, Qingwu Mountain is full of cyan when you look up. The mountain is covered with dense trees and grass, and from a distance, it is a continuous scene. The higher the mountaintop, the more rain and sunlight it receives, and the taller and denser the trees become. On the contrary, the foot of the mountain has a different flavor.

Bai Yuan dragged his legs in front of his painting, and told interesting stories to the people behind him as he walked, "This mountain is foggy, and it washes greener when it rains. By the way, especially after the new rain, there will be a lot of fungus on the ground. Take it to boil soup and drink, it is really delicious in the world. ”

Xue Rou held Yuan Junfeng's hand, and was interested when she heard this, "Then there will be a chance in the future, it seems that I am going to come to Bai Gongzi's house to try the craft." ”

When Bai Yuan heard this, his face turned red, and he was a little embarrassed, "I can't do my craft." ”

Yuan Junfeng raised his eyebrows, "Is it because the craftsmanship is not good, or does it not know how to do it at all?" ”

Bai Yuan was not embarrassed to be exposed, but said heartily, "I really don't, but my brother-in-law makes delicious food, and his craftsmanship is first-class." But my brother-in-law has been out for the past two days, and I don't know when he will come back. It's a bit of a pity. ”

Bai Yuan took the two of them to the foot of the mountain and saw a small wooden house, although it was not very exquisite, it was simple and tidy. The yard is planted with melons, fruits, and vegetables, and is fenced off, with a tree on each side, and the flowers of this season grow under the tree, which looks very beautiful.

Xue Rou praised, "Is this room dressed up by Bai Gongzi?" It's really fun, it's wonderful. ”

When the three of them walked into the house, they saw that the furnishings in the house were all wooden, and they looked more like they had made them than the household items sold outside, and they couldn't help but sigh with ingenuity.

Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng sat at the wooden table, because it was a little cold, a small fire was lit in the house, but it was much warmer. Bai Yuan made a pot of tea, poured it into the cup, and handed it into the hands of the two of them, it had rained, the weather was a little cold, holding the hot tea in both hands, feeling warm both physically and mentally.

Bai Yuan took a sip of tea and sighed contentedly, "Finally back, when I got to my feet, I thought I was going to stay on the mountain for a long time." Fortunately, I met Miss Xue and treated my feet. ”

Xue Rou waved her hand, "I'm glad I met you, if it weren't for you, our medicinal materials wouldn't be so easy to find, I don't know when we will find them." ”

Yuan Junfeng saw the two of them talking happily, knowing that it was nothing, but there was still some unpleasantness in his heart, and he couldn't help but hold Xue Rou's hand. Xue Rou looked at him amusedly, but didn't say anything, acquiescing to his obviously jealous behavior.

Bai Yuan took a few sips of tea, and suddenly remembered something, "Oh, what did Miss Xue ask just now, who is dressed up in this room?" It's not me, I can't do anything, I can only make some calligraphy and painting, where can I make such beautiful furniture? This house, this furniture, including the flowers and plants at the door, are all made by my brother-in-law alone. He lives alone on weekdays, but he is very interesting. I'm just going to help him get started. ”

Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng were both aroused, are there really such capable people in this world? One person has everything covered?

Xue Rou didn't feel sorry in her heart, "I heard Bai Gongzi say so many powerful deeds of your righteous brother, but I didn't see me, it's indeed a little regrettable." ”

She was still thinking about the mushroom soup made by the mysterious brother Bai Yuan said.

Bai Yuan laughed, stood up, walked into the house and took out something. Xue Rou looked at him curiously.

It turned out to be a painting, it looks like it has been a little long, and the paper is yellowing, but the corners are flat, and you can see the owner's love for it.

Bai Yuan spread out the painting, "This is my brother-in-law." My brother and I have known each other since we were children. At that time, we were still children, and once I got lost with my parents, and I happened to meet my brother-in-law, who was half a head shorter than me. But the person was very angry, and he pulled me and found my way back indifferently. Then we separated, and when we met again many years later, we had grown so big. Brother Yi likes to travel the world on weekdays, maybe you can meet him one day. ”

Xue Rou leaned over to look at the painting with Bai Yuan, and as soon as he talked about the rebel brother, Bai Yuan's painting gushed endlessly, and he praised people for the feeling that there was nothing in the sky and on the ground, which attracted Xue Rou's praise.

Yuan Junfeng frowned and looked at the painting in Xue Rou's hand, was it his illusion, how did it feel weird. Obviously, listening to Bai Yuan, the righteous brother should be agile with hands and feet, witty, and maybe a little martial arts. The person in this painting is unusually handsome, but it inexplicably gives people a sense of weakness. The sharp and indifferent eyes did not look like the eyes of a child from a normal wealthy merchant family.

"I take the liberty of asking, Brother Bai, what does your brother-in-law do at home?"

Bai Yuan was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "What, Brother Yuan, are you also interested in my righteous brother?" Although my brother-in-law is very handsome, he is indeed a man. I'm afraid it's not good. ”

Xue Rou frowned, but she was not angry, and when she looked at the painting carefully, she also felt that something was wrong. Is a man's skeleton so small? Don't be a woman dressing up as a man.

But looking at Bai Yuan's appearance, he really decided that his brother-in-law was a man. Bai Yuan smiled, "I was wrong, I shouldn't be joking, I saw that Miss Xue's brows were furrowed." I wish you both a long and happy life. It's not that I don't say it, it's that I don't know. When I met my brother-in-law, I was still young, and when I saw him, he was just a loner. I really don't know what he's doing at home. ”

"I asked him, and my brother said that he made some crafts at home and did everything, so he had this craft."

As she was talking, she suddenly heard a noise outside, a girl's delicate voice, as if she was coquettish, and a neutral hoarse voice, as if she was helplessly coaxing her.

"Brother Yun, can you take me out to play. I'll just stay with you for a few days, okay? ”

"Don't make a fuss, Xiaoxiang, your parents are still waiting for you. If you run out like this, they will be in a hurry. ”

Sounds like the story of a girl who sneaked out and went to play with her brother next door.

However, Bai Yuan's eyes suddenly widened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "This dead girl." ”

Xue Rou looked at him puzzled, "Bai Gongzi, do you know?" ”

Bai Yuan's face changed again and again, "You should know, wait for me to go out and have a look." ”

Pushing open the door, I saw two people standing at the door, but it didn't look like a passerby, but the owner.

A girl in a goose-yellow dress was smiling sweetly, and beside her stood a young man in a black short hat half a head taller than her, looking very indifferent, but the corners of his mouth were smiling helplessly.

Bai Yuan rolled up his sleeves and rushed over, "Dead girl, did you sneak out?" ”

Bai Xiangxiang's smile froze at the corners of her mouth, and her eyes widened, "Brother, why are you here?" Didn't you run away from home? ”

Bai Yuan snorted, "What do you mean by running away from home?" Your brother and I are going to pursue the pinnacle of art. Forget it, you don't understand it, a dead girl. ”

The two looked at each other with disgust, but the young man in black frowned, "Go in and say." ”
