Chapter 67: The Peak of Love
About 500 miles away from Yangcheng, there is a mountain peak, called the Broken Peak, this peak is only one thousand meters, far from being majestic and upright. And at the foot of the mountain of the Broken Peak, there is a lake, called the Broken Lake, but why is the peak called the Broken Peak, and the lake called the Broken Lake? There is a rather tragic story in this.
Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a young and beautiful girl who fell in love with a handsome young man, and this young man was also very excited and happy when he learned that the girl liked him. So the two decided to swear that they would never be separated from each other!
But good vows can't withstand the erosion of time, and those vows are like bullshit in front of the years. Yes, as everyone knows, the boy was already empathetic and abandoned the girl soon after. The girl's heart was shattered at that moment, and on the day the boy left her, she decisively climbed the peak of love, jumped off its peak, and fell into the lake!
If the love is broken, it can still be continued, and if the love is broken, can it be continued?
Since then, people have begun to call this mountain peak the peak of love, and call this lake the lake of love. For the sake of it, it may just be to remind future generations that with deep affection, in the end, the person who may be hurt is still himself.
At this moment, the lake is still lying there quietly, as if telling the past grievances and lamenting the stupidity of the past.
The clear water of the lake is like a mirror, reflecting everything on the edge of the lake, and occasionally a light breeze blows through the calm lake, which stirs up layers of ripples, and looks sparkling under the sunlight.
By the lake, there are verdant ancient trees in the forest, look at it from afar, it is like a soldier of a hundred battles, it shows a sense of upright and resolute, the mountain wind blows, one or two fallen leaves are like a broken string of kites, and then flutters, occasionally fall into the lake in a row, under the light wind, like a flat boat in the river, ups and downs with the wind.
Under a towering ancient tree, a graceful figure stood there quietly, she was dressed in a light yarn like snow, green silk like a picture, the breeze was slow, and the picturesque green silk, such as the light yarn of snow was gently raised, that is, from behind, it was already like the fairy of the nine days, out of the ordinary, as if it did not eat the fireworks in the world.
Her face was covered with a snow-white veil, but she couldn't get a glimpse of her face. But the light veil only covered the area below her eyes, not her eyes as clear as the water of the lake, and her eyes were so bright that whenever anyone looked at them, they would have a feeling that their hearts were being seen through.
She stared at the lake in a daze, wondering if she was admiring the beauty from the lake or thinking about something else. But even so, a mountain and a lake, a person and a tree constitute an extremely harmonious and tranquil picture, but such a picture soon becomes discordant, and the reason why it becomes discordant is only because of the appearance of a person.
"Smack......
A crisp voice sounded suddenly, and I saw that a human head suddenly emerged from the lake with a slight ripple on the surface of the lake, instantly stirring up layers of water waves. And as soon as this person came out, he yelled: "Fuck, Lao Tzu finally swam out!"
His roar instantly reverberated around the lake, so that the birds perched on the trees were immediately startled when they heard this roar, and suddenly a flutter of wings and bird calls sounded, and the original quiet and harmonious picture instantly dissipated without a trace.
And this person, without thinking too much, is naturally Ye Tian.
After a lot of hard swimming, and with the water beads in his hand, Ye Tian finally swam out of the water that made him feel extremely cold.
Soon, Ye Tian fluttered a few times, and swam to the lake, without much effort, Ye Tian climbed ashore, and after he climbed ashore, he faintly felt that someone was watching him, which made Ye Tian feel a little apprehensive in his heart, thinking that he wouldn't break into some Longtan tiger's den again, right?
Ye Tian suddenly raised his head, but saw that under an ancient tree, a young woman was quietly watching him, and there was a trace of anger flashing in her eyes. I saw that this woman's face was covered with a white light veil, and her white veil was like snow.
After seeing this woman, Ye Tian naturally noticed the trace of anger flashing in the woman's eyes, which made Ye Tian wonder, thinking what he had done?
Seeing that the woman was still staring at him coldly, Ye Tian immediately coughed dryly, and then slowly walked in front of the woman, and said, "Dare to ask the girl, where is this place?"
The woman didn't seem to hear what Ye Tian said, but her eyes fell on the surface of the lake that had calmed down, and then she glanced at Ye Tian, and without a glance, she turned her head and walked towards a path by the lake.
"You ......"
Seeing the woman like this, Ye Tian couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, although he had been ignored by others, but in front of this woman, for some reason, the anger that rose in his heart after being ignored was much stronger than before.
Of course, anger is anger, but Ye Tian is not the kind of stingy person, naturally he will not be a reckless person, and besides, Ye Tian doesn't know what the strength of the other party is? In this way, Ye Tian immediately chose to smile awkwardly and didn't say anything more.
In this way, Ye Tian has been following behind the young woman, which makes him really embarrassed, why? Because after the path by the lake extends for dozens of meters, there is no way back, and instead of a forest of towering ancient trees, in that forest, the branches and leaves of ancient trees cover the sky and the sun, so that it is difficult for sunlight to penetrate in, so that the whole forest seems dark in this broad daylight.
There was no way, and there seemed to be a dangerous atmosphere in this forest, Ye Tian couldn't think of any better way to get out for a while, so Ye Tian had no choice but to follow this young mysterious woman. Because judging from the path the woman walked, the woman seemed to be very familiar with this area, and Ye Tian was very cheeky and delusional to take this hitchhiker.
"What are you doing with me?" the woman suddenly turned around as she walked, and asked coldly, with a chill in her voice.
"Uh......" Ye Tian was obviously surprised, he was stunned at first, and then said with an embarrassed face: "What, I don't know what place this is, and I don't know the way out of this forest, so I have to follow you......" After speaking, Ye Tian smiled, and then said: "Is the girl going out too?"
"Yes and what? What is it to do with you?" the woman's voice was cold.
"This forest looks very big, in fact, it is only ten miles away, and there are no demonic beasts in the forest, only one or two wild beasts occasionally, I look at your strength, it must be more than enough to deal with wild beasts, so, you go out by yourself! Why follow me? If you follow me again, I will kill you!"
As soon as the woman's voice fell, Ye Tian only felt an invisible pressure in an instant, as if a mountain was pressing on him, and he seemed to lose his ability to move for a moment. So Ye Tian didn't doubt what the woman said at all, but Rao was like this, Ye Tian was naturally a little uncomfortable in his heart, thinking that he just wanted to follow you to take a shortcut? As for this, it is estimated that she must have come in the next few days of the month!
Without waiting for Ye Tian to speak, the woman instantly withdrew the pressure on Ye Tian, turned her head and continued to walk forward.
Seeing the woman like this, Ye Tian snorted coldly, and immediately chose a direction diametrically opposite to the woman's direction, and walked without looking back.
In this way, Ye Tian should have been wandering around in this forest all day, when the morning sun rose the next day, Ye Tiancai dragged his tired body out of this forest slowly, and at this moment Ye Tian was covered in dust, with a tired face, he must have gone around many circles in the forest yesterday, and when he thought about it, the forest was not only full of ancient trees, but also hundred-year-old vines, overgrown with weeds, and he tripped over the old vines after walking a few steps. And if there is no road, it is naturally not easy to get out of the forest, fortunately there are a lot of small animals in the forest, if Ye Tian is hungry, he will bake one or two rabbits and eat them, but if he is tired, he doesn't even have a place to sleep.
In a word, Ye Tianwei really suffered a lot when he walked out of this forest.
When the morning sun had passed three poles, Ye Tiancai finally walked on an official road, but at this moment, Ye Tian saw that on the side of the official road, there was a forest of houses, judging by its style, it should be the inn. Sure enough, when Ye Tian approached the house, he saw that on the plaque of the house, the four big characters of the Longmen Inn were dancing with dragons and phoenixes.
And Ye Tian couldn't help but feel a little happy when he saw that there was an inn on this official road, and secretly thought that he had stayed in that ghost forest for almost a whole day, and now there was an inn, so he could also take a good rest and take a hot bath by the way.
Walking into the inn, Ye Tian found that the business of this inn didn't seem to be very good, because except for a person who looked like a proprietress and a junior in the inn, Ye Tian didn't see a single guest for a while. But thinking that he had just walked on the official road for a long time, it was difficult to see a figure, thinking of this, Ye Tian was also relieved, no wonder the business of this inn was so bad, and no one was still doing a ghost business.
Seeing Ye Tian come in, the proprietress inside immediately greeted her, "Hey, I've been looking forward to it for so long, and I'm finally looking forward to a guest coming." The proprietress walked up to Ye Tian and said with a smile: "This little brother, what do you want to do?"
Feeling the joy in the proprietress's words, Ye Tian smiled slightly and said, "Let's do it first...... Huh?"
It was at this moment that Ye Tian glanced around, but saw that in a corner of the inn, there was a woman in white clothes like snow sitting, and this woman was not the woman Ye Tian met in the forest yesterday.
Ye Tian was stunned, obviously he didn't expect to meet this mysterious woman in this small inn, Ye Tian walked in front of the proprietress and whispered: "Dare to ask the proprietress when did that person come?" After speaking, Ye Tian pointed to the woman.
