Chapter 122: Disappearing and Not There

I chatted with Chen Dan for a long time that night, after which she opened a room and went to sleep alone. Early the next morning, she and I got up separately, settled the room fee, and said goodbye at the door of the hotel.

Chen Dan seemed to have something to say to me when he was leaving, but he hesitated for a long time and refused to speak. I helped her stop a taxi and opened the door to let her in. Chen Dan just moved one foot into the car, but the person refused to bend down and sit in, his face was swollen and red, and he said in a slugging voice: "Tang Qian, actually...... I...... It's not that urgent...... Drive...... Hurry back, if ...... If only ......"

I immediately laughed, this Chen Dan, if you want to go to Huadie Valley, just say it, why bother to detour? Seeing that she couldn't talk for a long time, I said, "If you're not in a hurry, then accompany me to Yandang Mountain." It just so happens that I will take you to meet the sea of flowers, the sacred realm of the butterfly land. When you see it, you will never forget it. ”

Chen Dan immediately laughed happily, no longer hiding his expectations, and hurriedly said: "Okay! I have heard Xu Xin describe it, and I have long been very yearning. It would be a shame to miss such a rare opportunity today. I'll call the school right away and ask for an extra day off, and we'll go together! ”

I looked at her with a smile and said, "But you don't seem to be able to climb the mountain in a skirt and high heels." And it's going to be very the way to Huadie Valley, you have a female surname, can you afford to eat? ”

Chen Dan hurriedly said: "Xu Xin can afford to eat, why can't I?" Clothes and shoes, can't I go buy them right away? ”

An hour later, Chen Dan changed his mountaineering outfit. Standing in front of me in a heroic manner. For the first time, I saw her not dressed in white, but in a different way. Because of the excitement, her face was flushed all the time, and at the age of thirty-two, she actually showed a childlike look of expectation.

I know, it's all because of being with me!

On the way to Yandang Mountain, I told her in detail about some precautions and possible difficulties in climbing. In a short time we were at the foot of the mountain.

I checked our equipment and the drinking water and dry food we were carrying again, and then said to her, "Chen Dan, follow me closely, if you are tired, just say it." We are not in a hurry, we can use it as a tour, but we must also be safe. Alright, let me do it! ”

Chen Dan answered, and followed me into the vast mountains. It's a pity that it didn't take long for me to understand that her physique and Xu Xinbi are really the same heaven and earth. Almost every half hour of walking, I was so tired that I had to sit down and rest for ten minutes. If it weren't for the tenacity of not admitting defeat in her surname, I wouldn't have been able to go to Huadie Valley, and we would have to go back.

But at this rate, I guess we won't be able to come back when it's dark. Luckily, I had a simple tent with me, but I couldn't do it, so I had to stay overnight in the mountains.

It's also a good thing, and I also searched for a long time to find the cave that leads to the Valley of Butterflies. When Chen Dan and I sat down to rest by the ancient tomb panting, I looked at my watch, good guy, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

Chen Dan gasped and drank water, and said, "Tang Qian, it's ...... Have you arrived? The sun is about to go down. Mother...... Damn! It's so tiring to climb the mountain! ”

I smiled and patted the grave next to me and said, "Come on, climb in from this tomb, there is a cave that leads to the Valley of Flowers and Butterflies." But when we come out, it's getting dark, and it looks like you're going to have to take another day off, and I'm afraid we'll have to spend the night in the valley." ”

"Yes...... Is it? This is the cave import that Xu Xin said? Chen Dan looked at that tomb Mu and couldn't help but show a frightened look on his face. I hurriedly explained, "Don't worry, this is an empty tomb, and there are no dead people in it." ”

Chen Dan pushed his glasses and said, "I know, I've heard Xu Xin say it, but it's ......."

I smiled and took my flashlight out of my backpack and said, "Don't do it, we have to hurry, otherwise you will only be able to enjoy the beautiful scenery in the valley tomorrow." I'll go in first, and I'll help you down. ”

As I spoke, I pushed away the big rock beside the grave, and as soon as the flashlight shone on it, I climbed in. After gaining a firm foothold, he beckoned Chen Dan in. Chen Dan trembled and leaned forward with his feet first, and then leaned on his stomach, descending little by little. I stretched out my hands to help his waist, and when I touched it, it was smooth. It turned out that her blouse was pressed by the grave, and the skin around her waist was now exposed. What's even funnier is that as soon as I touched her waist, Chen Dan actually let out an "ahhh I had no choice but to hug her in mid-air, but the hand that was holding her waist went straight into her blouse because of her sliding, and even pushed her bra straight open, and it was full and soft.

Then her weight caused me to sit on the ground, and I subconsciously hugged her, grabbed the mass of abundance, and fell backwards, eliminating the force of her fall.

At that time, I hadn't reacted yet, so I hurriedly asked her, "Chen Dan, how are you?" Didn't get hurt? ”

"I didn't ...... No, why did you tickle me just now? ”

At this time, my butt hurt so badly that I let go of her, got up and reached out on the ground to find a flashlight, shone it on her, and said, "Are you really okay?" I just wanted to ......"

Suddenly, I saw her look writhing, reaching for something under her clothes. I immediately realized what her plump mass was just now.

In an instant, I was embarrassed and panicked, and I wanted to say sorry, but I didn't know what to say. Chen Dan was also embarrassed, and lowered his head and didn't dare to look at me. I was stunned for a moment, thinking that the more I explained this, the more embarrassing it became, anyway, she must have known that I didn't mean to, so she ...... I just didn't notice it!

I coughed, patted her on the shoulder, and said, "It's okay, follow me, there's a road ahead that needs to be climbed." ”

Chen Dan let out an "oh" and followed me, and began to burrow into the low hole. I used a flashlight to illuminate the road, and while climbing first, I thought to myself: "Chen Dan's plumpness is really comparable to Xu Shu." I can't see that her Wenwen is weak, and her figure is so angry. Ah! What am I thinking? Whether other people's bodies are angry or not, what does it matter to you? ”

I was ashamed and couldn't help but climb faster. Chen Dan shouted from behind: "Tang Qian, don't climb so fast!" I can't keep up with you. ”

I slowed down, but it wasn't long before we were able to straighten up. The cave was gloomy, and Chen Dan was a little scared. Unconsciously approached me and reached out and grabbed my arm. I laughed and said, "Are you afraid?" ”

Chen Dan shook his head, but leaned closer to me. I took her hand and said, "This hole is going downhill, I'll pull you, be careful not to fall." ”

"Hmm"

We walked for a long time, and I started to feel a little weird. It stands to reason that you should be almost at the hot springs, so it should be warm here, right? Why is it still so eerie? After a while, a bright light appeared in front of us, and we had come to the dripping cave. But I didn't hear a drop of water. I shone it with a flashlight and couldn't help but be surprised. It turned out that the water was cut off for some reason.

The flashlight shines again, and the sink below is also dry. The stream of water that flowed outside the cave had long since dried up. I shouted, "No? Hurriedly pulled Chen Dan out of the small hole, looked at it, and couldn't help but cry out bitterly.

Chen Dan was inexplicable and asked me, "Tang Qian, what's wrong?" ”

I pointed to the bottom of the valley with a bitter face and said, "That hot spring is gone!" ”

At this time, the sun had set on the opposite peak, and although the valley floor was dark, it was still visible. What was once a beautiful world full of flowers has completely changed. The whole sea of vibrant flowers, as if trampled by giants, staggered and withered at this moment. All the flowers withered, and all the grass turned yellow. The whole place is in decay. The most serious thing is that the slender small pool in the middle is gone, leaving only a long pit half a man deep.

I couldn't help but stomp my feet and said, "How can this be? Isn't it hell that the spring that has existed for thousands of years suddenly disappears in two or three months? ”

Chen Dan looked at the ruined sea of "flowers" at the bottom of the mountain, and couldn't believe that this was the fairyland on earth described by Xu Xin, and said funny: "Tang Qian, we ...... Are you in the wrong place? ”

I said, "How is that possible?" Obviously this is it. Let's go down and see, isn't there really no spring at all? ”

I dragged Chen Dan down to the bottom of the valley and came to the original hot spring pool. I saw that the bottom of the pool was full of mud, how could there be a little water? I looked at the withered sea of flowers and sighed, "Chen Dan, it seems that we have come for nothing." Look at these flowers, so withered and ruined, this hot spring is afraid that it has disappeared for a long time, and you will no longer see the beautiful scenery of the past. ”

I looked very sadly at this place where I lived with the little witch and almost lived here forever. Recalling the bits and pieces of me and her here at that time, the feelings of regret were all on my face.

Chen Dan grabbed one of my hands and comforted: "Don't be sad, it's because I don't have this blessing." This place originally belonged only to you and Xu Xin, and its beauty only bloomed for you. I came, and it was gone. ”

I sighed, sat down on the ground, and said, "What does this have to do with you?" Isn't it strange to say that a hot spring that has existed for thousands of years is gone when it is gone? ”

"Perhaps...... Something has happened in the mountains recently, maybe there has been an earthquake, maybe there has been abnormal activity underground, blocking the passage of the hot spring, and it has flowed elsewhere. If we look for it again, maybe it will pop up in another place? ”

I smiled bitterly and pointed to the sky: "It's dark, where can I find it?" If you look at these flowers, there will be no water nearby, so they will wither? These flowers have grown so beautifully by absorbing this spring for thousands of years that even if it rains, it can't save them. ”

I was in an unusually low mood, and Chen Dan squatted beside me, stroking my shoulders, and was silent.

It was completely dark, and the starlight fell from the sky and shone softly on us. I was sad at first, but I gradually looked away. There is nothing that man can do about this kind of natural disaster. If it's gone, it's gone. It's just that it's not easy to explain to Old Man Hua, if he doesn't believe it, then he has to bring him over and let him see it with his own eyes!

I untied my backpack, turned on the flashlight, and said, "Forget it, if you don't see it, you'll be gone." When we're hungry, let's eat. Luckily, there was a lot of food to prepare, and it should be enough for the two of us to last until dark tomorrow. When we were full, we spent the night in the valley and returned after dawn. ”

After hastily eating a little dry food, I set up a tent at the bottom of the valley. This kind of tent is folded into a small piece, and when the rope is pulled and the nail is nailed, it becomes a small room that is enough for one person to protect from the wind and rain. It's just that there is only one sleeping bag, I am a man, of course, I carried forward the style and gave it to Chen Dan.

So I sat outside the tent, and Chen Dan got into his sleeping bag. But since it was still early for us to talk about our usual schedule, we chatted with each other.

"Tang Qian!"

"Huh?"

"Xu Xin said that if you hadn't discovered that cave, maybe you and her would have been here for the rest of your life to look at flowers, hunt birds, and live that kind of secluded life like a fairy. Now it seems that it is fortunate that you have come out, otherwise at this moment, most of you would have starved to death of thirst like those flowers? ”

I smiled and said, "Maybe, but it's worth it to be able to live with Xiao Xin for such a period of immortal life, starving to death and dying of thirst!" ”

"Really? Your lovers, everyone has had a life and death experience with you. That's why you love them so much, right? Sometimes, I really envy them. I've known you the longest, but I've been the least experienced. The fate between people is really destined! ”

I stared at the starry sky and was silent for a long time. The beautiful faces of my lovers seem to emerge one by one in the constellation. Xu Shu, Jingjing, Xiaoxin. Their lives have long been linked to my blood, and they can no longer be separated. Thinking back to the experience with them, the smile slowly spread across my face.

The night breeze blew slightly from the other side of the valley. On the body, it seems to be a little cool. The half-moon has risen from the mountain behind me. Between the peaks in the distance, there is only a black line connecting them. In my eyes, it has become a hazy splashed ink painting, and the artistic conception is so far-reaching.

I sighed lightly: "Without the hot springs and the sea of flowers, in fact, this is still a fairyland on earth." The beauty of nature is everywhere! ”

Chen Dan climbed out of his sleeping bag, opened the tent and sat next to me. Didn't speak, just followed my gaze into the distance. After a long, long time, she also sighed softly, gently rested her head on my shoulder, and said, "How beautiful! Tang Qian, this trip, I didn't come in vain! ”
