There was a crisp birdsong in his ears, Zhao Ruyi opened his eyes and saw the faint light on the canvas canopy above his head, knowing that it was already dawn at this time. Stretching slightly, he took off the blanket and got up and walked out of the tent.

The sun had just risen, Zhao Ruyi stood at the door of the tent, took a deep breath, and the breeze brought a faint fragrance of flowers. Looking at the mountains and forests, I only feel that the sun is warm, and the new green leaves are tender and lovely.

"Awake?" Liang Wenxin, who was dressed in a white robe, was standing not far from the tent, saw her come out, and asked out loud. The breeze slowly blew Liang Wenxin's long black hair, and his figure that could not be concealed by a loose robe was beautiful in the sun.

"Have I slept for a long time?" Zhao Ruyi asked embarrassedly.

"No, I'll wash my face, over there, Mu Zhi is over there to fetch water." Liang Wenxin pointed behind the tree.

"Well, then I'll go."

The sound of running water could be heard in his ears, Zhao Ruyi walked forward along Chen Muzhi's footprints on the ground, and when he bypassed a few big trees, he saw a stream with gentle ripples, and Chen Muzhi by the stream, I don't know what to squat at the water's edge and look at intently.

Zhao Ruyi hesitated for a moment, afraid that making a rash voice would disturb him, so he walked over and deliberately stepped on some branches, making some "click" sounds. Seeing Chen Muzhi turn around when he heard the voice, Zhao Ruyi just waved his hand to greet him, "Morning!" ”

"Miss Zhao is early."

"Why are you so fascinated?"

"Oh, this," Chen Muzhi pointed into the water, "Look at the small fish in the water, obviously they don't swim much, but the stream can't wash it away." ”

"Oh?" Zhao Ruyi also squatted by the stream, and saw that there were a few small fish in the water, almost motionless in the slowly flowing stream, and the water was turbulent, but the small fish seemed to be hovering inside, and they hadn't noticed it before. Smiling slightly, he asked, "Have you finished reading it?" I'm going to wash my face. ”

"Uh-huh, I'm done." Chen Muzhi stood up and took two steps back.

Zhao Ruyi's palm flicked twice on the stream, and the little fish was startled, and with both hands together, he picked up the water and splashed it on his face, with a cool feeling.

The stream was clear and cool, washed a few times, rinsed her mouth again, and a few strands of hair in her ears touched her white jade-like face. Zhao Ruyi gently wiped the water droplets on his face with his sleeve, and when he looked back, he saw that Chen Muzhi was holding a handkerchief in his hand, and he was about to hand it over.

Looking at Chen Muzhi's slightly embarrassed expression, the two of them looked at each other, both of them smiled, Zhao Ruyi said, "Let's go quickly, I heard that there are bears in the mountains here." ”

"Are there bears in this mountain? So lucky? ”

"If you do, it's the bear's luck." Zhao Ruyi said, thinking again, "But you really don't have to be afraid of the bear, that's the immortal master, do you want to see the bear?" ”

"Well, my summoning talisman, if you summon a beast, it will be a little stronger......" Chen Muzhi took the kettle and led the way in front, and as soon as he said the talisman, the words became more.

Zhao Ruyi looked at the figure of the young man walking in front, and remembered the experience he said yesterday, his father was away all the year round, and he was under the fence since he was a child...... Thinking about it, he developed his careful and introverted temperament, a pair of black and shiny eyes, although he does not stare at people, but he is always observing words and feelings, handing water when people are thirsty, and giving hand towels when people are wet. And he never mentioned his mother...... made Zhao Ruyi's optimistic and cheerful temperament feel a little sour in his heart, and he felt that he was too pitiful before.

Listening to him talk about the talisman making, the tone of obviously happy tone, although he didn't understand, but he wanted to know more about cultivating immortals and wanted to talk to him more, so the two chatted and walked back.

Stepping over a fallen stump, Chen Muzhi glanced back at Zhao Ruyi. What Zhao Ruyi wore on his body was Liang Wenxin's robe before, but the law pattern was destroyed. The two of them are about the same height, and they fit well on their bodies, but Zhao Ruyi is a little slimmer.

Recalling the battle when she met the horse bandits yesterday, she was covered in bruises, and when she saw that she was in danger, her eyes showed worry, and she rushed to the mustache desperately, just to drag herself a little time, and the red-clothed figure wielding a single knife was deeply engraved in her mind.

"The ......"

"Miss Zhao......"

The two of them spoke at the same time, and the words collided for a moment.

"You talk about ...... first"

"You talk about ...... first"

The two of them spoke together again, they both stood together, and glanced at each other, Zhao Ruyi couldn't help but sneer.

Chen Muzhi was also infected by her and laughed, "Haha, let's talk about Miss Zhao first." Seeing Zhao Ruyi staring at him, "What's wrong?" I still have something on my face? ”

"No, it's just the first time I've seen you laugh happily."

Chen Muzhi asked suspiciously: "Didn't I laugh before?" ”

"I smile when we meet, but it's more like a polite, showcased smile."

Chen Muzhi bit the corner of his mouth lightly, "Before, I learned it in Fang City." What did Miss Zhao want to say just now? ”

Zhao Ruyi obviously hesitated for a moment, frowned lightly and said, "I want to ask, if ordinary people enter the Immortal Mountain, can they cultivate immortals?" There was some dodging in his eyes, but there was clearly some anticipation.

Chen Muzhi shook his head, "There is a saying that 'the natal is bestowed by heaven', whether there is a qualification to cultivate immortals or not, the slightest chance is already destined when you are born." ”

"But is there still a saying that 'my life is up to me'!" Zhao Ruyi's tone was obviously a little excited.

Chen Muzhi looked at her face and said, "Fate can change, but immortal fate is rare." ”

Zhao Ruyi pursed her lips and kicked away the branches on the ground at her feet, and a tear slid down Ruyu's cheek. Zhao Ruyi turned his back and muttered: "I have always thought and thought before, if I can meet an immortal one day, I will follow him, and then I can also go to the immortal mountain, and I can also become an immortal, and fly around in the sky......"

Chen Muzhi shook his head slightly, bent down to pick up the branches on the ground, and said: "Growing up is a process of slowly accepting yourself, no matter what kind of life it is, the most important thing is to be happy." ”

Zhao Ruyi burst into tears and laughed, and muttered: "It's not comforting at all, where do you see all this?" ”

"In the book, I think it's pretty well written."

Zhao Ruyi turned around and rubbed his eyes, "It was the dust that scraped into your eyes just now, what did you want to say just now?" ”

"Oh, that Miss Zhao, do you know how far this place is from Beiyang City?"

"I don't know."

"Huh?"

The two men looked at each other for a while, and tilted their heads together in confusion.

"Aren't you an immortal?" Zhao Ruyi said.

"So ......"

"That...... The immortals show the way. Zhao Ruyi's eyes blinked, and the index fingers of both hands pointed at Chen Muyi.

"Who told you that immortals have this skill!" Chen Muzhi's almost roaring voice spread far away in the woods.

At this time, in the place where Chen Muzhi and them fought bloodily before, a group of crows hovered in the sky, even squatting on the treetops, and made a "quack" sound from time to time.

The Zhao family members who were killed before on the ground, as well as the corpses of the dead horse bandits, were carried by the soldiers and lined up. It's just that the corpses of the horse bandits are a little troublesome, some of them were cut off by the waist, some were trampled on and their heads were broken, and the corpses of the horses that were chopped up were a blur of flesh and blood.

There was a group of people standing in the open space under the tree, with the broken roof of the carriage in the center, and next to it stood Zhao Yuanwai, who was frowning tightly and his eyes were red, holding the longevity lock that Zhao Ruyi had worn before, silent.

"It's too fierce, tsk, Lao Tzu has been a soldier for so many years, and it's the first time I've seen such a scene." Next to him, a bearded man dressed as a military general, spat on the ground as he spoke.

On the other side, a middle-aged man who looked quite similar to Zhao Yuanwai thanked him and said, "Thank you Master Ma this time." ”

"It's easy to say, it's the duty of the official to protect the territory and the people, haven't you found Miss Zhao yet?"

"Alas," the man sighed, turned to Zhao Yuanwai and said, "Big brother, Ruyi is not found here, she must have escaped!" "This person is Zhao Erren.

Zhao Yuanwai seemed to come back to his senses, and his eyes immediately flashed with surprise, but immediately dimmed, "But after looking for it all night, I haven't even found a figure, where can she escape to as a girl." After speaking, he sighed heavily.

"Big brother, you have to take care of your body first! My mother is still sick. ”

Zhao Yuanwai muttered: "The divine doctor is also missing, Ruyi...... I have to see people in life, and I have to see corpses in death, otherwise I will not be at peace! ”

The second member of Zhao and Master Ma looked at each other, and arched his hand: "In this way, Master Ma still has a duty, and the soldiers he brought are also tired all night." Big brother and I will go back to the city first, let's look for it along the road, and organize people, even if it is to dig three feet into the ground, we must find it! Okay no! ”

Zhao Yuanwai was silent.

Zhao Eryuanwai supported Zhao Yuanwai and said to Master Ma: "Master Ma, then you call the brothers back to the city, and you have a lot of money to thank you this time!" ”

"Alas, it's easy to say." Nama pretended to excuse himself. Greet the men and prepare to return to the city.

His lieutenant general stepped forward, pointed to the corpses of the group of horse bandits and asked, "My lord, what should I do with those horse bandits?" ”

Master Ma pondered for a moment, "Find two carts to pull back to the city, report to the imperial court, and say that it is the official who encircled and suppressed it, and eliminated harm for the people." ”

"It won't cause any other trouble, will it?"

"They dare! I'm up to something! Well...... Cover their faces. ”

"Your Excellency is wise!" The subordinates immediately followed suit.

Master Ma beckoned, and the soldiers next to him led the horse over, and after getting on the horse, Master Ma shouted to his subordinates: "Prepare to go back to the city, and shout to me every other paragraph, Miss Zhao, and call me out all your breastfeeding strength." ”

Master Ma looked back at the blood stains all over the ground, and said in his heart: "It's a pity, that kid in my family still wants to marry the girl of the Zhao family, and it is estimated that it is the scourge of the Red Stone Temple." He snorted heavily and spat hatefully on the ground.

At this time, Liang Wenxin and the three of them, who had already led the carriage out of the woods, sat on the carriage with big eyes and stared at each other, and the horses snorted impatiently.

"Muzhi, are you sure you're going this way?"

In front of me is a crossroads, deserted on all sides.

Liang Wenxin and Zhao Ruyi held their cheeks together, turned their heads and stared at Chen Muzhi meaningfully, being stared at by these two beauties, one big and one small, Chen Muzhi only felt that his throat was dry, not shy, but anxious, and he felt that the more he walked, the less he walked towards the city.

Since Zhao Ruyi didn't know the road, he only knew that Beiyang City was in Qijia Village to the west.

Relying on the sun how to distinguish the direction, Chen Muzhi knew, but he didn't know how far Liang Wenxin ran when he was unconscious.

Seeing that the two of them seemed to be fine, Chen Muzhi only felt that the sweat was about to come down, "I just don't know which way to go, anyway, I will find someone to ask for directions first." ”

"Muzhi, I'll just say, let's just throw a branch to decide the direction."

"No way!"

"Why don't we catch another rabbit and roast it." Zhao Ruyi said, with some joy in his tone.

"......" is so tired, Chen Muzhi thought in his heart.
