The two of them supported each other and walked towards the trees in front of them, and as they approached, the sound of the water became clearer and clearer, indicating that the trees were very close to the river. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
After a while, the two came to the edge of the woods, only to find that this is a willow forest, the strange thing is that it is a cold winter at this time, the temperature is very low, except for the pine holly and other evergreen plants in the four seasons, all the trees have long fallen and withered, and this willow forest is actually crisp leaf color, willow hanging low, and even new shoots emerge, as if growing in the middle of summer.
Wu Zhiyuan and Sheng Wanxiang looked at the strange scene in front of them, and they were both amazed. "In this cold winter season, there is such a green and pleasant willow forest,"
Sheng Wanxiang stroked the wicker in front of her and muttered. "Wuling is in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and the climate is warmer than in the north, but now it is a cold winter, and even if it is warmer, willows should not grow like in summer."
Wu Zhiyuan felt that this forest was a little strange, he looked at Sheng Wanxiang and asked, "Do you think it's cold around here?"
Sheng Wanxiang looked around and sighed, and white gas immediately erupted from her mouth, indicating that the temperature in the vicinity was still relatively low.
"I don't think it's any different from other places, it's a little cold." Sheng Wanxiang said, subconsciously shrinking her neck.
In fact, Wu Zhiyuan didn't feel how warm it was nearby, but it was a bit illogical that the willows in this forest were growing so green and vigorous. Standing on the edge of the woods and observing for a while, there was silence in the woods, and nothing unusual was found, Wu Zhiyuan said cautiously: "Let's go in and have a look, be careful." ”
Sheng Wanxiang nodded and held Wu Zhiyuan's arm tightly, at this moment, Wu Zhiyuan was her only support.
Wu Zhiyuan pulled out the peachwood sword, this place seems to be a bit evil, and the peachwood sword may come in handy.
The two of them walked into the woods step by step, and the surroundings were surprisingly quiet, and even the sound of their feet on the ground could be heard.
Wu Zhiyuan could clearly feel that the soil under his feet was soft, and this softness was not caused by the accumulation of fallen leaves, but the soil itself was not frozen due to the cold weather.
The sound of the water outside the woods is tinkling, but it is a completely different world from the tranquility in the woods, as if you can enjoy the sound of the water in this woods, but it does not affect the unique tranquility of the woods.
The two stopped under a thicker willow tree, Sheng Wanxiang wanted to pick up some firewood to make a fire, Wu Zhiyuan stopped her, her right wrist was already red and swollen, and it was not suitable to do heavy work.
Wu Zhiyuan went around to collect firewood, but considering that the woods were not very safe, he asked Sheng Wanxiang to follow him to prevent the two from getting separated. Wherever Wu Zhiyuan went, Sheng Wanxiang followed him inch by inch, like a good girl who followed her father, but Wu Zhiyuan did not look like her father.
Holding a pile of firewood, the two returned to the big willow tree, Wu Zhiyuan took out the fire fold from the baggage, ignited the hay, and then lit a fire, and there was a piece of leftover baked cake in the baggage, and the two shared it.
The forest was not far from the town where the two had lived before, and the five Taoist priests had not chased after them again, so it was safe here and now.
Wu Zhiyuan sat with his back against the willow tree, and Sheng Wanxiang snuggled in Wu Zhiyuan's arms, she looked at the fire jumping in the fire, fell asleep, after a long time of running, she was already tired. Wu Zhiyuan didn't feel sleepy, not because he wasn't sleepy, but because he had something on his mind.
Now the situation of the two is worrying, but the whereabouts of Peach Blossom Manna are still clueless. According to the beggar, there was no peach blossom nectar in the Peach Blossom Garden, but Wen Qing said that Jin Zhuni asked her to arrive at the Peach Blossom Land to get the peach blossom nectar before Wu Zhiyuan, and Wu Zhiyuan had no way of determining whether the words of these two people were true or false.
In the dead of night, his thoughts were erratic, Wu Zhiyuan thought of Moon Shadow Fuxian again, he didn't know how she was now, and hoped that her senior sister Jin Zhuni would not find her hiding place.
In this way, with the longing for the Moon Shadow Fuxian, Wu Zhiyuan fell asleep groggily when dawn was about to come.
When he woke up, the sky was already bright, the sun shone through the willow trees, sprinkling a slender and long shadow, the fire had been extinguished, and there was a faint white smoke, Wu Zhiyuan looked down at Sheng Wanxiang and found that she was looking at herself with wide eyes. It turned out that she didn't know when she had woken up, but because she saw that Wu Zhiyuan was sleepy, she couldn't bear to be disturbed, so she kept a posture lying in front of Wu Zhiyuan's chest.
Wu Zhiyuan hurriedly rubbed her arms for her. Sheng Wanxiang has a slender figure, but her body is richer than that of Moon Shadow Fuxian, Wu Zhiyuan rubbed her arm, and felt very soft, as if she had no bones. For a while, he forgot the strength of his hand, and with a fierce force, he rubbed Sheng Wanxiang and snorted softly, and his forehead was dripping with sweat.
Wu Zhiyuan realized his gaffe at this time, and quickly let go, saying apologetically: "I'm sorry, I tried too hard." ”
Sheng Wanxiang hung her head shyly, and said in a subtle voice: "We don't need to say sorry between us. ”
Sheng Wanxiang's words were very subtle, but the feelings expressed were very obvious, how could Wu Zhiyuan not understand, he picked up Sheng Wanxiang's right wrist, Sheng Wanxiang immediately frowned, obviously very painful, but she still clenched her teeth and did not let out a trace of moaning.
"It probably hurt the bones." Wu Zhiyuan said worriedly in his heart, after a hundred days of hurting her muscles and bones, Sheng Wanxiang's wrist should have hurt her muscles and bones, which indicates that for a long time in the future, she will basically be unable to take care of herself and need to be taken care of by Wu Zhiyuan.
In order to prevent frostbite on the red and swollen parts, Wu Zhiyuan took off his coat and gently wrapped Sheng Wanxiang's wrist.
Only then did the two get up to rest, ready to walk out of this wilderness, looking for the town to heal Sheng Wanxiang's wounds.
The two spent the night in the willow forest, and when they entered the woods, they found that the woods were not very large, and when they were looking for a way out, they realized that they had lost their way, and when they looked around, they could not see the edge of the woods at all.
After wandering in the woods for a long time, Sheng Wanxiang proposed: "Brother Zhiyuan, listen, standing here you can always hear the sound of flowing water, which means that there must be a river nearby, as long as we find that river, we can follow the river, and I believe we will definitely find the village." ”
Sheng Wanxiang's proposal Wu Zhiyuan also took it into account, because human beings have always had the custom of living along the river, although it is true that they can find a village, but the road to walk may be very long, which is why Wu Zhiyuan is hesitating. After thinking for a while, Wu Zhiyuan decided to follow Sheng Wanxiang's words to find the river, and then walk along the river.
The two of them immediately set off and walked forward following the sound of the water. There is a fixed direction, so you won't find your way out of the woods.
After touching the tea, the two finally saw the edge of the willow grove, and at the same time saw a clear river meandering along the edge of the woods.
In the cold of winter, the river is not only not frozen, but the water is extremely clear, and you can see the green aquatic plants under the water at a glance, and koi fish swimming in it.
Wu Zhiyuan was squatting by the river looking at the koi and aquatic plants in the water, puzzled, only to hear Sheng Wanxiang say in surprise: "Brother Zhiyuan, have you smelled it, it's so fragrant,"
