After midnight, it means that the next day has arrived.

Maybe it's because it's halfway up Wangxue Mountain, and it's getting closer and closer to the sky, so in Zhou Xingzhi's opinion, Wangxue Mountain is much brighter now than before.

Although there was still only the subtle glow of the sky shining through the clouds.

"It's about one or two o'clock in the evening. ”

Zhou Xingzhi leaned against a big tree to drink water, looked around, and then turned his head to Bai Zhi in a daze and asked.

"Bai Zhi, what time is it?"

"Huh?!"

Bai Zhi asked, turned his head suddenly from the direction of the rising sun, paused, smiled slightly, and then replied.

"Back to Miss Zhou's words, it is now past the ugly time, and the sky will be bright in a few hours. ”

"The direction you are looking at should be the direction of the scene of snow falling all over the ground in Miss Ye's painting, right?"

Zhou Xingzhi asked with a smile, Bai Zhi nodded, and replied.

"The general direction is right, it's not at the top yet, so I'm not sure if it's really there. ”

"There's no hurry. ”

Zhou Xingzhi put the cup away, then looked in the direction Bai Zhi was looking, and paused for a moment before continuing.

"It's still some time before dawn...... Even if you don't get to see the snow falling all over the ground, it's a beautiful thing to climb such a high mountain to watch the sunrise. ”

"Well, the sunrise over the snow-capped mountains is indeed beautiful. When you stand on the top of the mountain, you feel as if you can touch the white clouds and the sun as soon as you stretch out your hand, and it feels amazing. ”

Bai Zhi said, with a look of satisfaction and yearning.

Zhou Xingzhi just buried his head in a smile and said no more.

This is halfway up the Wangxue Mountain, and the road is many times better than when I came up.

I saw that there were wild trees scattered around here, not as dense as before, the trees were much taller than under the mountain, and there were more hills and rocks here than under the mountain.

Overgrown with weeds, it was up to the knees, but because of the correct guidance of Bai Zhi, the journey was not too hard.

After packing everything up, the two of them went up again.

The farther you go up, the brighter the sky becomes.

Sure enough, as Bai Zhi said, the road is better.

Although the hills and rocks are steep, but fortunately, there are a lot of things that are not blocked, and now, Di Di is finally able to show his skills, avoid obstacles and take Zhou Xingzhi to the top of the mountain.

After the road was good, Bai Zhi walked in front and broke off a branch with his hand, and when Zhou Xingzhi couldn't go up, he asked Zhou Xingzhi to pull the branch and then pull it up.

In fact, with the ability to lose it, Zhou Xingzhi doesn't have to work so hard, but she can't say it is easy to refuse, so she can only let Bai Zhi do it.

Being taken care of so carefully made Zhou Xing's heart feel warm, but even so, it couldn't relieve the bitterness in her heart.

After walking for so long, the bottle in the sleeve still didn't make a sound.

She already knew clearly that if she wanted to solve the doubts of this bottle, she could only go to the top of the mountain according to what the seventh master said before.

The leg hurt terribly.

Now that this situation is not up or down, Zhou Xingzhi is not good at making other choices, so he can only grit his teeth and continue to go up.

"I hope that the Seventh Master is really here, otherwise everything tonight will become useless!"

Zhou Xingzhi thought so.

Looking up at the slightly hazy Wangxue Mountain, the top of the mountain could be vaguely seen, and she felt that she had finally seen the dawn.

The higher you go, the brighter the snow-capped mountains become.

Occasionally looking back at the road, it was still pitch black, boundless darkness, which made Zhou Xingzhi a little dizzy.

The two have a small talk about whether they have a ride or not, although there is no end to time, but there is an end to looking at the snow mountain.

Hours passed.

Zhou Xingzhi saw that the clouds were slowly pierced by the skylight, and the whole world glowed with a strange light blue luster.

Eventually, the sky grew brighter.

The previously pitch-black Wangxue Mountain was also lit up.

"It's finally dawn!"

Zhou Xingzhi's footsteps stopped, and when he looked up, he saw that it was not far from the top of Wangxue Mountain.

Not far in front of them was a long, naturally formed ravine, faintly reflective at the bottom, jumping lightly with the occasional breeze.

Obviously, there is water in this ravine, and how deep it is, Zhou Xingzhi can't be sure.

When you go around the ravine, you will see a hill that looks like a terraced field.

Further along, there is a huge mountain wall, showing the trend of division.

Below the mountain wall, there is a path that is closely connected to the mountain wall, and the path looks narrow from a distance.

Below is a slope with fallen rocks, on which grow large trees and weeds, and the roots of the large trees are mostly exposed, showing a mixture of mud, yellow, white and gray.

"Well, it's dawn. ”

Bai Zhi also stood still, then pointed to the east, and his tone became warm and fast, and said.

"Miss Zhou, you see, it's much brighter than other places, and it won't be long before the sun comes out. ”

"It seems to have been cloudy for the past two days. ”

Zhou Xingzhi looked.

She doesn't rely on the clouds to guess the weather, only when a heavy rainstorm is approaching, she can clearly tell.

"Well, the first two days were, but I'm sure it was a good day!"

It seems that Bai Zhi is very happy.

Seeing this, Zhou Xingzhi didn't spoil his interest, but pointed to the small path and asked with a smile.

"There's a trail there, should I go there?"

Bai Zhi looked back, looked over there, then nodded, and said.

"Indeed, this is the last place to go. Although the road is narrow from here, if you look closely, you will find that there is no problem in passing carefully. ”

Seeing that Zhou Xingzhi seemed to be a little anxious, Bai Zhi didn't stay any longer, this time he stepped back behind her and motioned for Zhou Xingzhi to go ahead.

For the sake of safety, the torch was still not extinguished, and there was nothing to obstruct, so Bai Zhi returned the bamboo frame to its original position, carrying four torches on his back.

Zhou Xingzhi destroyed his own branch and returned it to Bai Zhi.

"Miss Zhou, go carefully, I'm behind, it's okay." ”

Seeing Zhou Xingzhi standing, Bai Zhi whispered.

He thought that Zhou Xingzhi was a little afraid, but in fact, Zhou Xingzhi was standing at this time because there was a slight sound in the bottle again.

However, it wasn't the voice called the Seventh Master, but the echo that something made from hitting the bottle similar to that formed in a closed place.

If it is really as the Seventh Master said, his body and soul are separated, then judging by the current voice, his body should exist in some enclosed space in Wangxue Mountain.

It didn't seem to be far from that place, otherwise there would be no sound coming from the bottle.

"What's wrong?"

After a short period of time, seeing that Zhou Xingzhi was still standing in a daze, Bai Zhi hesitated for a moment, and finally asked with some curiosity.

"Oh. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Xingzhi quickly came back to his senses, lowered his head slightly, and restrained his excitement, then turned his head over, smiled apologetically, and replied.

"I'm still a little scared, but if I really fall......"

"There are branches around that you can pull up on...... Don't worry, I'm following behind, even if I fall, I won't let you fall, please don't worry, Miss Zhou!"

Bai Zhi said seriously, playing a package ticket.

However, in the face of this situation, Zhou Xingzhi is no longer simply afraid, but afraid.

Once this fear appears, it is difficult to suppress it!
