Back in the second courtyard, there was silence all around.

Zhou Xingzhi looked at the probe, but he didn't see Bai Yu, and he still felt a little lost in his heart.

Searching for her memories of the past, she returned to the guest room, the door was closed but unlocked, and she pushed it open and walked inside.

There was heat in the house.

Looking up, a small stove on a log table was blazing, and a small kettle was placed on it.

There was a cup of tea next to him, Zhou Xingzhi approached and took a look, there was no temperature.

The furnishings of the room were the same as before.

"Diu--"

Zhou Xingzhi rubbed his hair lightly, woke up, screamed in a low voice, and ran down to the ground.

"Is the master of the line going to sleep?"

Dio asked on his back, feeling more comfortable next to the small stove, and jumped onto the log table.

"Hmm. ”

Zhou Xingzhi buried his head in reply, opened the window sideways, and ran out.

The round body finally landed on the big tree outside the window, and then it turned its head again, and called in a low voice twice, and then spoke.

"Please also ask the master of the line to sleep peacefully, and the loss is outside. ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhou Xingzhi nodded and closed the window.

There was light shining through, and she was facing back to the tree outside the window.

Because he was Ling Lan's pet before, he knew the general etiquette.

In the barren mountains, in order to protect Zhou Xingzhi, it has always been by her side, but once Zhou Xingzhi enters the house, it will consciously go out.

Give Zhou Xingzhi his own complete privacy.

This is exactly what Zhou Xingzhi wants.

Soon after throwing it out, Zhou Xingzhi felt a little hungry, but now she didn't even have the strength to move.

She just took off her shoes and lay down on her coat.

The weather is very good, which is good for going out.

At this time, it was not long before noon, but the exhausted Zhou Xingzhi didn't want to wait.

After a long period of exertion, coupled with the pain of her legs, her body was already overloaded, and if she didn't rest again, she was really afraid that she would fall down.

Sunlight fills the room and everything is transparent.

The shadows of the trees swayed in the breeze, and together with the shadows of the lost, they reflected on the windows.

All peaceful!

"Stomp Tread--"

Faintly, there seemed to be footsteps, which were extremely clear.

At this time, Zhou Xingzhi had fallen asleep, and in a daze, he seemed to hear the sound of pushing the door.

Before long, there was the slight sound of footsteps and things moving.

Zhou Xingzhi, who fell into a dream, thought that it was just her own dream, even if someone really came into this room, she couldn't open her eyes and get up.

Just want to get a good night's sleep!

The soup was served out again, the small stove was taken away, and the log table returned to its former sleek appearance.

Bai Yu stood in front of the gate of Zhou Xingzhi for a while, and finally left.

She knew Zhou Xingzhi's tiredness, so even if food was prepared for her, she couldn't wake Zhou Xingzhi up, and she couldn't bear to look at her tired appearance.

In the final analysis, it is also for Bai Yu's son's business, otherwise, Zhou Xingzhi would not have to work so hard.

Bai Zhi didn't come back with her, Bai Yu was a little puzzled, but he wasn't worried.

In comparison, she is more worried about Zhou Xingzhi, after all, Zhou Xingzhi is not familiar with life.

It was expected that the news of the capital should have reached Ye Yuanwai's hands, and after Bai Yu packed everything up, he went directly to Ye Yuanwai's study.

Zhou Xingzhi on the bed was scattered, her brows were tightly locked, and it seemed that the things she was worried about had been brought into her dreams together.

A strange but seemingly once traveled upstream river, with a thin back facing away from her.

Zhou Xingzhi stood hesitantly, and could clearly hear the sound of the water.

Above the river, there is a hazy mist drifting, resembling tiny beads.

She seemed to have seen this back before, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

"Who is this?"

Zhou Xingzhi tilted his head and thought.

Although this person was a stranger, he did not convey the slightest sense of danger to her.

It was also because of this that Zhou Xingzhi did not choose to flee, but was very curious about the face in front of his back.

In the distance, the mountains are lined up, the trees are faintly visible, and the vast river that has no end in sight is still flowing slowly.

There was a tinkling sound of spring water, and I don't know where it came from.

"The ......"

The back let out a hesitant question, gentle and delicate.

A young man's slightly hurried but deliberately suppressed emotional tone!

“？”

Zhou Xingzhi didn't know how to answer, opened his dry lips, and didn't say a word.

Just as she was looking at him, the man turned around and could see his clothes, but not his face.

The person was clearly standing not far in front of her, but he just couldn't see his face clearly.

The man was dressed in a snow shirt, and there seemed to be something white fluttering next to his cheeks, similar to something of white silk.

In his sleeve, there was a short knife hidden, and Zhou Xingzhi could see it clearly.

"In Xia Bai Yu, dare to ask this girl, have you seen my Lichen?"

"My Dust?!"

Zhou Xing's heart was curious.

His eyes instantly condensed, not knowing the meaning of his words.

His lips were still dry, and when he opened his mouth, he still couldn't make a sound, but it didn't feel like his throat was being suppressed.

"This. ”

Seeing Zhou Xingzhi pause, the man hesitated for a moment, and then took out a very detailed painting from his back.

He looked at Zhou Xingzhi carefully again, confirmed his appearance again and again, and then carefully opened the painting.

"Away from the dust...... It's the person in the portrait, dare to ask the girl, have you ever seen her?"

The tone was fast, and the previous anxious emotions could no longer be concealed, and before Zhou Xingzhi could look at the painting, he added eagerly.

"I've been looking for Lichen for many, many years, and I want to see her...... Bai Yu really wants to see her again!"

The words are real, but they don't seem to be lying.

While speaking, Bai Yu walked to Zhou Xingzhi's side again with the open painting.

Zhou Xingzhi raised his eyebrows and looked carefully.

In the haze, it seemed that a shadow could be seen on the portrait, and the silhouette of it was a woman.

It should be an extremely beautiful woman!

"Whew--"

Zhou Xingzhi exhaled heavily, and she also began to be curious about the woman named "Lichen".

So, she began to stand on tiptoe, wanting to get a glimpse of the woman in the portrait.

However, Bai Yu was like a prank, covering half of the portrait with the long sleeves of his snow shirt, which happened to cover the face of the person who called Lichen on the portrait.

"Bastard, you did it on purpose, right?!"

Zhou Xingzhi was very angry!

She hated being played with, and since she was asking, she should be allowed to see the face of the person in the portrait.

"Now, have you seen her?...... Now, why don't you answer me?...... Now, Bai Yu really wants to see Lichen, and I've been thinking about it for many years--"

The originally gentle questioning was so annoying in Zhou Xingzhi's eyes at this time!

If you don't want her to see the face of the person in the portrait, why do you need to ask her?

"Damn White Feather!"

Zhou Xing was resentful in his heart, thinking that he still couldn't say anything, but this was extremely clear.

"Ah--h

As soon as the complaining words came out, accompanied by Zhou Xingzhi's exclamation, the man in front of him actually stretched out his palm and pushed her directly into the river behind her.
