Chapter 17: Sunrise

Chapter XVII: Sunrise

Xiao Dong has seen a lot of texts and pictures describing sunrise before.

But at the moment when I saw the sunrise with my own eyes, I felt that whether it was the glow of the sun or the clouds and clouds, it was not enough to describe it.

The heavens and the earth suddenly lit up, as if a big hand removed the curtain covering the earth, the black mountains faded from black and turned into green, the mountains and forests were dark green, light green and thick green, the colors were rich and lovely, and the layers were gradually distinct. The sound of birds, the sound of mountain springs, the sound of the wind...... In an instant, everything awoke from the slumber of the night, and it was so vivid.

Xiao Dong took a deep breath, the exhaustion just now was all worth it.

"This is called Pipa Peak, from a distance, it looks like a pipa erected, and it is the highest peak of Donghua Mountain."

Xiao Dong took the tin pot handed over by Zhao Lu and drank two sips of water: "Why don't you find a lower seat to climb......

"Because it's closest to our Zhuangzi."

Well, that's true.

It's hard enough to go up the mountain, and it's even harder to go down. Fortunately, Qin Lie came prepared, and several people were tied to ropes around their waists, so that even if someone slipped and fell, others could stabilize in time. Xiao Dong was Qin Lie in front of him, Zhao Lu was behind him, several people held hands and supported each other, rubbing off the Pipa Peak one after another, Xiao Dong sat on the ground with his buttocks, and he didn't want to move anymore.

Zhao Lu was no better than her, and he was panting: "I knew I was so tired...... I won't call you out. ”

"It's okay......" Xiao Dong also panted hard, if it weren't for the fact that there were men all over the place, she really wanted to tear open the placket and loosen the belt: "I have to climb to the top of the mountain to watch the sunrise once in my life." If you don't watch it now, if you regret it when you're old, you won't be able to watch it. ”

Zhao Lu burst out laughing: "How old are you, just say you're old?" ”

"People get old...... Before you know it, you're getting old. ”

Even Qin Lie couldn't help it. A few people rested for a while and walked back, Xiao Dong felt that both legs were as if they were filled with lead, and they moved mechanically, and they didn't know how to get back to the villa.

As soon as she saw Hongfu, she lay down, which frightened Hongfu.

"Let me sleep ......"

When Xiao Dong woke up, her whole body was so sore that she couldn't help but moan.

"County Lord," Hongfu came in with hot water and poured tea for Xiaodong first: "Let's drink a glass of water first." ”

Xiao Dong looked at the sky outside, and couldn't tell when and where it was.

"I've slept for most of the day, and it's getting dark."

The clothes on his body were changed, Xiao Dong curled up his feet and looked at it, the abrasion on the soles of his feet had been coated with medicine, and there was a little cold feeling.

It's too delicate.

"Fortunately, the clothes are sturdy, and there are a few places that have been scratched in this way. If you were wearing normal clothes, you would definitely be injured. Hongfu whispered: "I can't do this again next time, otherwise Mother Hu will have to peel off my skin." ”

Xiao Dong smiled at her embarrassedly.

Hongfu served her to wash her face and asked, "Is it time to see the sun come out?" Is it good-looking? ”

"Beautiful." Even the tired half-dead Xiaodong didn't regret it: "By the way, you helped me with the medicine?" ”

"Yes, it's the ointment sent by Young Master Qin, what do you think?"

It was also sent by Qin Lie?

"It's cool, I don't feel any pain."

"Hungry, aren't you?"

She didn't mention it and didn't think it, as soon as she said that Xiao Dong felt that her stomach was really hungry, she was just sticking her chest against her back.

Outside, Zhao Lu asked, "Is my sister awake?" ”

Xiao Dong only had time to say, "Wake up." Zhao Lu had already walked in.

Xiao Dong maintained a kneeling posture and turned around: "Brother." ”

The little face was red from sleep, and her hair was still scattered, Zhao Lu sat down next to her: "I've been here twice, you can really sleep." ”

Xiao Dong leaned on Zhao Lu's shoulder: "Didn't my brother sleep for a while?" Wake up so early in the morning. ”

"It's okay, I took a nap at noon." Zhao Lu asked her, "You're tired, right?" ”

"Well, my leg is sore."

"Then you're bad, I'm afraid you won't be able to go anywhere."

"Ah, that's right." Xiao Dong touched his leg, it seems that this leg will not get better in a short time: "Well, then stay in the Zhuangzi, anyway, it's cool and quiet here." I don't know what my father is doing at this moment......"

"It's time for dinner, right? Come on, I asked someone to make some mountain-style food, and asked someone to bring it, let's eat together. ”

The maid outside said, "Young Master Qin is here." ”

Xiao Dong said: "No, you can't come in." ”

It's okay for her to see Zhao Lu like this now, but she can't see Qin Lie.

Zhao Lu immediately dutifully went to stop people, and Hongfu hurriedly tidied up Xiaodong's appearance and put on clothes.

When Qin Lie finally came in, Xiao Dong put on an apricot-pink gauze shirt, his hair had been combed into a double bun, and there were small silk flowers of the same color as the shirt. His face was flushed, and he was small, like a first-ripe peach on a branch, pink and clear, and smiled at him a little crampedly: "Brother Qin Lie." ”

"I want someone to wake you up in the afternoon, sleep for so long, beware that you can't sleep at night."

"Yes......" Xiao Dong really started to worry, wouldn't he really lose sleep?

Zhao Lu and Qin Lie laughed together.

Hongfu led the maid to set the meal, Xiaodong was really hungry, took a spoon and dug a big spoonful of rice into his mouth, swallowed it almost without chewing much, and ate most of the bowl of rice before slowing down, tasting the taste: "Lotus leaf rice?" ”

"Well, it's made from lotus leaves in the pond behind the villa."

Xiao Dong said vaguely: "It's delicious." "There is a lotus leaf fragrance in the rice, and there are chicken cubes, peas, and diced melons in it. The tender bamboo shoot soup is also delicious, light and delicious, Xiao Dong found that after arriving at the villa, he always ate his stomach sharply and roundly, and he quickly approached some kind of fat head and big eared pink animal.

It seems that there are not so many scruples in the capital here, and there is no Hu Shi always staring at her and emphasizing the rules, Xiaodong has a kind of free and easy out of the cage bird-like happiness. I slept day and night upside down, I ate whatever I wanted, and no one cared about what I played, all of which had the rules and etiquette that I had followed over the years, but I was so happy.

It's not that she's miserable around Hu — well, that's different. It's as if the adults have gone out, and the children are home alone, and the TV stereo is loud, and all the snacks are turned on to set up a table, and the feet wearing shoes are put on the coffee table or even secretly lit a cigarette, which is a kind of unbridled pleasure of breaking the rules.

Qin Lie casually talked about a few things he had seen and heard when he was traveling outside, and said that he had walked for two days without a drop of water, and he pulled the grass blades and chewed out the juice to quench his thirst.

"So, how does the grass juice taste?"

Qin Lie touched his chin, as if he was reminiscing: "Some are sour, some are bitter, and some are astringent, but some are sweet and silky, just like the taste of sugar cane." ”

The atmosphere was too harmonious, so Xiao Dong naturally asked: "By the way, Sister Jinfeng...... Who are you going to marry? ”

Can't blame her for being too curious, it's really ...... The question had been in her stomach for too long.
