Hearing Shu Churou say this, Shu Qingci took the opportunity to look over, and there was indeed a narrow wooden door in the far corner. Although I don't know if this journey will be shorter, since Shu Churou has already said so, she also wants to solve the matter in front of her as soon as possible, so she has to nod and say, "Okay, let's go out together." ”

Seeing that Shu Qingci agreed so easily, Shu Churou could barely hide the joy in her eyes, "My sister really thanked my sister." Then he said to Xiaolan beside him: "You go and talk to your father and mother, saying that my sister and I have something to go out, and we will definitely come back before dark, so that they don't have to worry too much." ”

Xiaolan's eyes quickly swept over Shu Qingci's body, and then she smiled and said, "Yes, the slave understands." He turned to the front yard.

Seeing that Xiaolan had gone away, and it was not too early this day, Shu Churou urged Shu Qingci and said: "Sister, sister sees that it is not too early, if you haven't found that thing before dark, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome, you and I should move faster." ”

"Yes, that's fine." Although Shu Qingci was surprised why Shu Churou treated herself so well today, she was a heartless person, but she felt that Shu Churou had suddenly figured it out. Let go of your prejudices about yourself. She was very happy in her heart, if this was the case, then it would be great, and it had always been her heart's desire for the family to be in harmony.

The two of them went out the back door together, only to find that the outside was not like the flat road she thought, but the mountains and forests with no end in sight. She was a little panicked in her heart, and always felt that if she entered here, she was afraid that she would not be able to get out, so she hesitated to look at Shu Churou who was walking in front, and said slowly: "Churou, I see that this mountain forest seems to be very steep, and we are not locals, I am afraid that we are not very familiar with this place, and if we get lost for a while, I am afraid that it will not be good." In my opinion, why don't we go to the gate? ”

Shu Qingci is a timid person, she hopes that everything can be safe, and it would be better if there were no accidents, so she persuaded her sister.

Shu Churou, who was walking in front, frowned slightly, and secretly cursed Shu Qingci in her heart, but in order to lure her into the bait, she had no choice but to smile and say: "Sister, you are really worried, my sister just heard what Aunt Li said, you can see the mountains and forests when you go out of this back door, and you can see the direction of the village entrance all the way down." Don't look at the bottomless appearance of this mountain forest, in fact, it is just a cup of tea. ”

"Is that really the case?" Shu Qingci looked at her suspiciously.

Shu Churou nodded again and again, "Naturally, why does my sister want to deceive my sister?" After all, if the mountain road is very difficult to walk, I will go with my sister, and neither you nor I will be able to please the good fruit to eat. ”

Although Shu Qingci was still a little wary of Shu Churou, she felt that what Shu Churou said was reasonable, so she nodded and said, "Okay, since that's the case, you and I should leave quickly." Shu Churou nodded happily, and the two of them quickened their pace together.

And Xiaolan, who was obviously walking to the front yard, stood at the back door, watching the figures of the two gradually disappear in the mountains and forests, she looked back and saw that there was no one in the backyard, so she quietly followed.

The two of them walked all the way forward, it was getting late, because of the high terrain, the fog had slowly shrouded the entire mountain forest, if it wasn't for the fact that it was not dark, the two of them were afraid that it would be difficult to move an inch.

After walking for a while, Shu Qingci slowly lost his courage. She always felt that the mountain forest in front of her was like a flood beast with its bloody mouth open, and she was waiting for her and Shu Churou to join her.

Thinking of this, Shu Qingci couldn't help but shudder. She trembled slightly and said to the person beside her: "Chu Rou, let's go back, I always feel some ominous premonitions." ”

Seeing this, Shu Churou smiled slightly and said, "I know that my sister is relatively timid, but that thing is very important to me." If I can't find it today, I won't be able to feel at ease in my heart, sister, can you understand? ”

Shu Qingci heard a little regret and anxiety in Shu Churou's words, and her heart softened, but she still agreed. "Well, okay."

Shu Churou smiled and deliberately quickened her pace. And Shu Qingci's body is weaker, so naturally he can't catch up with her. After walking for a while, she unconsciously distanced herself from Shu Churou, Shu Qingci looked at the past, but she couldn't see Shu Churou's figure, and she felt even more panicked. was about to shout, asking Shu Churou to slow down and wait for a while, but unexpectedly, he suddenly heard a scream that pierced the sky, "Ah! ”

Shu Qingci's heart also raised his throat and eyes, it was Shu Churou's voice! Something must have happened to her! Shu Qingci resisted the fear in her heart and ran over quickly, but she didn't see Shu Churou's figure, she became more and more panicked in her heart, so she shouted: "Churou! Where are you? ”

This Shu Qingci only thought that Shu Churou was lost in the foggy mountains, and he panicked for a while. But she was surrounded by fog in front of her, so she had to walk indiscriminately, listening carefully to the movements around, but she never heard Shu Churou's cry for help again.

On the other side, Xiao Lan and Shu Churou, who had followed all the way, hid somewhere, and when they heard Shu Qingci's voice getting farther and farther away, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then got up. Xiaolan walked this road during the day, so although the fog was thick, she was familiar with the road and left the place with Shu Qingci.

Walking on the way back, Shu Churou was very happy in her heart. She glanced at the mist behind her, and said with a sneer: "Shu Qingci, this time, you can't escape the palm of my hand." She smiled even more, glanced at Xiaolan beside her, and said, "Let's go, at this time, I should go to my father to coax her." With that, the two walked away quickly. And halfway through, Shu Churou deliberately made the clothes on her body messy, and ripped off the hairpin on the bun, and the hair fell down, Xiaolan saw it in her eyes, and smeared some mud on the ground on Shu Churou's skirt, Shu Churou nodded with satisfaction, and the two turned around and went into the backyard.

Walking all the way forward, Shu Qingci's heart was not up and down. But now she was panicked, and she didn't know where she was. I had to keep walking, but the further down I went, the more terrifying I felt. In the end, Shu Qingci finally couldn't resist the fear in his heart, his legs were weak, he sat on the spot, covered his lips with one hand, tears swirled in his eyes, and he was about to fall, but in a trance, he saw a figure slowly coming towards him. She sat dumbly in place, but she heard a sound like a spring water, "Girl, are you alright?" ”

Somehow, hearing this voice, Shu Qingci's originally restless heart calmed down. She pursed her lips as she watched as a man in white came with a mist and settled in front of her.

"Girl, are you alright?" The man stretched out a hand towards Shu Qingci, and Shu Qingci put his hand on his hand, feeling the warmth of his palm, Shu Qingci trembled slightly, but he didn't mean to let go.

The man helped Shu Qingci up and asked her, "Is the girl lost in the mountains?" This area is quite familiar below, so it's better to take the girl down the mountain below. ”

"Well, Mr. Lao is leading the way." Now there is no one around, and the only one who can ask for help is the dignified son in front of him. Shu Qingci naturally regarded him as the only life-saving straw.

The two walked all the way, the man was good at chatting, looking at the pitiful appearance of the woman beside him, his heart moved, and he smiled and said with relief: "Girl, don't worry, I will definitely deliver you safely." ”

"Yes." Shu Qingci nodded, and then heard the other party continue: "The name is Gong Puhe, a person from the capital, dare to ask the girl's name?" ”

As soon as he heard that the other party was also from the capital, Shu Qingci felt a little good in his heart. Then he smiled slightly, "The little woman's name is Shu Qingci, and she is also from the capital. ”

Gongpu He's smile was even worse, "I never thought that it was such a coincidence, I thought that I and the girl could meet in this ethereal place, it must be fate, what does the girl think?" ”

Gongpuhe's words were direct, but Shu Qingci didn't feel disgusted, on the contrary, she had a good impression of Gongpuhe. Maybe he happened to show up when she was most helpless, or maybe as soon as she heard his voice, she felt a lot more settled.

The two went all the way down the mountain, and Gongpu and Shu Qingci were not shocked, so they deliberately picked out some interesting stories they encountered when they traveled and told her to listen. Shu Qingci lives in the boudoir all the year round, although she doesn't love it much, but she is also full of all kinds of fantasies about the outside world, and now she hears Gongpu and so good to say, she is naturally yearning for it in her heart. Therefore, she quietly listened to Gongpuhe talk about the past, she occasionally raised a few questions, and Gongpuhe would answer them patiently one by one, which made Shu Qingci feel very down-to-earth.

In a blink of an eye, he left the mountain forest that frightened Shu Qingci, and when he saw the people in front of him, Shu Qingci's heart was relieved, and he smiled and said to Gong Puhe: "Thank you so much, Gongzi." ”

Gong Puhe smiled, "Miss Shu, there are still important things to do later, maybe you can only send the girl to the entrance of the village and leave, and I beg the girl to understand." ”

Gongpu and those who are not related to him are so worried about themselves. Shu Qingci's heart moved, and Wan Er said: "Childe's words are serious, I am already grateful that you can take me out of this mountain forest." While speaking, he inadvertently stepped on a stone under his feet, and Shu Qingci was caught off guard, "Ah! "With a scream, I was about to fall down some steep slopes.

Shu Qingci was so scared that she had to close her eyes tightly to usher in the expected pain. But after waiting for a long time, she didn't feel pain, but was supported by a hand to maintain her balance.
