When he woke up the next day, Linghu Feimo was stunned for a moment, and the hazy light came in through the window, vaguely in the early morning.

There is a fishy sweet smell of snakes in the air, which cleverly conceals the cartilage fragrance that has not yet dissipated, and this fragrance does not have too many adverse effects, at most it will make people feel tired.

He had also heard the name of Jiuli Shuangshu when he was a child, Ziling? Sure enough, no matter how many names are changed, the essence of human beings will not change.

Ye Xinyou, who was sleeping in the next room, also woke up, there were not many houses in the courtyard, so she rested with Ziling last night.

Rubbing his eyes, he sat up lazily as if he had not slept enough, lifted the light gauze curtain hanging from the bed, and saw a delicate dressing table, with soft and gentle lines, and at a glance he knew that it was not an ordinary thing.

When I was in Ye Yancheng, the furniture I saw was more or less in this style.

On the countertop, there are some uncollected pearl hairpin fat powder, lacquer carved enamel, and a few celadon powder boxes, and half a peony ivory comb is exposed in the middle half-open drawer, which seems to be a woman's love object, but it is placed too carelessly.

Ye Xinyou was curious and wanted to take it and take a look, but he still couldn't help but didn't stretch out his hand, after all, with the help of other people's places, it is better not to mess with things.

After a simple wash, I pushed open the door and walked out, a fresh breath came to my face, and the light rain that had been going on for several days seemed to have stopped. Last night, the lights were dim and I couldn't see it really, but when I looked at it today, I found that this was an elegant and chic courtyard, surrounded by green bamboo into a half-person-high courtyard wall. There was a gravel path underfoot, but the ground was still a little damp due to the rain.

Maybe it's because of being in the forest, although it's early in the morning, there is a bit of fog in the courtyard. The trees in the distance were also obscured by the fog, and it was hazy and difficult to see. Under the fog, everything seems to be extremely silent, as if it is a separate space that has been cut open. Even though he was in the woods, there was not the slightest wind blowing, not even the sound of birdsong.

She was about to walk further, but she heard the sound of the wooden door opening, and Linghu Feimo also pushed the door out, looking at his appearance, it seemed that he didn't sleep well last night.

"Ziling seems to have gone out, and I didn't see her when I woke up, but the forest should be full of poison at the moment. She is a little girl, why wouldn't she be afraid? ”

Not to mention ordinary people, even she felt numb all over her body in the environment last night, even if she has been with poison for a long time, is she really not afraid at all?

"Who said she was a little girl?" Linghu Feimo paced out, "If you only look at your appearance, who would know that you seem to be simple and harmless, but you are even more dangerous than me." ”

Ye Xinyou felt that Linghu Feimo was a little strange today, but she couldn't notice what was strange, so she put this thought aside for the time being: "What is it if it's not a little girl?" Is it still a monster? Snake demon or spider demon? ”

"She's human." Linghu Feimo replied, but his eyes looked at a pot of peonies under the porch of the wooden house on the side, the lush branches and leaves held up the delicate flowers, and the purple and red were very beautiful. Dew drops from the leaves add a bit of color to the flowers.

As if afraid that this peony would be wronged, the pot was made very large, and a straw curtain was arranged under the porch, so that it could be put down at any time in rainy weather to protect it from wind and rain.

It's just that the environment and climate here are not suitable for the growth of such delicate peonies, but this peony is well cared for and does not have the slightest decay.

Ye Xinyou also followed his gaze and looked aside: "I should like the peony very much, so I am willing to put so much effort into taking care of it." "It's not good to be like her, after reading a few planting books, I suddenly lost the mood of raising flowers and vegetables, everything in the world is really complicated.

Ye Xinyou suddenly felt that this place was also very strange, as if he had accidentally entered a forbidden place, isolated from the outside world by the fog, quiet and secretive, and he was a little irritable inexplicably, but Linghu Feimo was also very silent, and felt that this place was very annoying.

Just when the two of them stood in the courtyard and fell into silence, a melodious song suddenly came from the direction of the woods not far away, which instantly broke the silence of this side of the world.

The voice was crisp and innocent, and the cheerful bell sounded like a beat, and the clear voice sang a common mountain song in the Jiuli barbarian language.

The voice gradually grew from far to near, and you didn't need to look at it to know that the person who came must be Ziling.

"You're up?" Ziling smiled sweetly, and there were two cute dimples on her face, "I must have been frightened in the forest last night, and I thought you would sleep a little longer." ”

The little girl in front of her put the huge basket on her back on the stone table in the courtyard, Ye Xinyou happened to be next to her, so she helped her easily, and asked, "What is in this?" ”

"Poisonous snake~" Ziling smiled innocently, but there was a ruthlessness in her eyes, which was fleeting.

"Ahh Ye Xinyou exclaimed in surprise, instantly withdrew the hand holding on the back basket, jumped away and took a few steps back one after another, hiding behind Linghu Feimo.

Seeing that she was frightened, Ziling instead 'giggled' and laughed: "Sister, you are really not scared, where are there poisonous snakes, they are just some herbs I picked up in the jungle." ”

"Xinyou has been timid since she was a child, Miss Ziling should not make such jokes in the future."

"Your brother and sister have a really good relationship, just like me and my senior sister," Ziling laughed again, "However, I haven't seen my senior sister for a long time." ”

"Didn't your senior sister go back to the master a few days ago to recover her life......" Ye Xinyou still hid behind Linghu Feimo and didn't want to come out, feeling more and more that Ziling was as mysterious as this forest, and it was better to Huailing and Ye Yancheng, at least there were a lot of people, and there were some fireworks, and it was completely quiet to the point of weirdness.

"Yes," Ziling said, "but the master is far away, and she may not be back for a long time." ”

..

Staying in an isolated courtyard in the forest, Ziling is normal most of the time except for the occasional weirdness.

Here, behind the courtyard is a bamboo forest, and the bamboo with knots in the middle becomes a shelter for poisonous insects after refining.

The opening is sealed, a nearly circular hole is opened in the center, and a layer of semi-permeable crystal film is attached, which can facilitate the observation of the form of poisonous insects, and then engrave the species, age, and date of catching poisonous insects next to it after making arrangements.

"Your method is really good," Ye Xinyou, who followed Ziling into the side room, opened his mouth and praised, the entire side room here, although the space is not large, but there are wooden shelves on the four walls, because Ziling has a limited height, there is a well-built wooden ladder on the side.

All kinds of insects on the wooden shelves are placed in different categories, spiders and centipedes, which are already among the five poisons, not to mention for the time being, winged poisonous insects are first separated separately, footless, aquatic, and even habits have been taken care of.

Ziling giggled: "Except for the Sand Sea and the Northland, almost all the poisonous insects in the world are here with me. Sister Ye, you can take your time, just don't take the bamboo jar off the shelf, and don't open the lid, in case the poisonous insects come out, it will be troublesome. ”

Ye Xinyou nodded, she wouldn't open the lid, thinking of the appearance of those insects, she felt a little frightened, and she couldn't help but have another idea in her mind, if they were resting, all these poisonous insects broke out of the lid, what would ......

"What is Sister Ye thinking?" Ziling raised her face, her face innocent.

"No, it's nothing ......" or don't think about it, it's scary, "What's in the room over there?" Isn't it better not to get closer? Ye Xinyou asked, pointing to a door connected to this room.

"There," Ziling laughed, "it's Yellow's house, and it likes to sleep with the food, and whenever it's hungry, it can eat." ”

"What does it eat?" Ye Xinyou asked cautiously.

"The same kind, other vipers."

Isn't it a den of snakes...... Ye Xinyou took a step back cautiously, and decided to change the Linghu Feimo to come, and even if he was in the same room with many poisonous insects, there was actually a nest of snakes next to him, in case he ran out......

"Sister Ye, you don't have to worry, the house is all furnished, except for Xiao Huang, no snake can run out, and other things can only go in, but they can't get out."

Well, Ye Xinyou is temporarily relieved.

..

"I want you to go and see it tomorrow, I don't know anything about it, but I'm frightened." At night, in the middle of the moon, Ye Xinyou put his hands on Linghu Feimo's calves to warm his legs.

With the instinctive fear of insects and snakes, she still squeezed over with Linghu Feimo, and then there is, the land of Jiuli is rainy, and the humidity is also heavy, so Linghu Feimo already has a leg injury, if you don't pay more attention to such a climate, I am afraid that the old injury will recur.

"Is it that scary?" The pain in his leg from the depths of the bone marrow seems to have weakened, Ye Xinyou's ability is very special, and he can only spy on it for a long time.

"You don't know that there is a snake nest next to the wormhouse, which scares people to death." Ye Xinyou said for a while.

"The land of Jiuli is exactly such a custom, every household will raise some insects and snakes Gu poison," he said, and stroked her hand, "Don't worry, after this mission is completed, there is no need to come to the land of Jiuli again." ”

"I also think it's better not to come again," Ye Xinyou was a little unhappy, "It was fine, but after coming here, there are signs of aggravation of the injury, hasn't your leg been healed?" How could this still be the case? ”

"When I was injured at the earliest, I didn't get timely treatment, and I suffered from the cold, even if I can walk as usual now, the root of the disease has been planted, and it can't be better." Linghu Feimo also felt that he had been in the secret garden for more than ten years, and he never thought that there would be a day when he could walk as usual.
