Chapter 5 The clouds are gloomy and the sun is open

The four of them came to the foot of the mountain and found a path up the mountain. Yu Wenhan saw "this road" covered with weeds and leaves, and asked in surprise, "Are you sure this is a road?" ”

"Of course it's the road, I have a good memory, this road is a lot faster, and we can rest for a while after we go up. Let me tell you, you have to take a path to climb a mountain, so that you can feel more conquered and open! After Yun Chuan finished speaking, he took out his small dagger, cut off four hard branches, handed them to them and said, "You take it!" I'll lead the way, my brother will follow me, and you two will follow us. ”

Yu Wenhan looked up carefully, it was already nearly two watches, the weather was slightly cold, and only a little moonlight was sprinkled. But fortunately, this mountain is rocky, there are few trees, and the field of vision is also vast. Yang Qingyun was worried that he would return in vain, so he glanced up and asked, "Are you sure?" ”

"Of course I'm sure!" Yun Chuan pulled Yun Xi and said, "Yun Xi, you tell them if we took this road when we came last time." ”

Yun Xi said with a smile: "There is no road on this mountain, it is all rocks, and it is not easy to go up." But you see there are some pines and cypresses along the road here, and there is a support to climb up. This is also the last time the locals told us how to climb the mountain, and it can't be wrong. ”

"I see, then please!" Yu Wenhan responded.

Yun Chuan muttered in a low voice, "The people of the Central Plains are really timid and afraid", and then walked in the front.

Two years ago, Yunchuan and the two climbed once, but it was still early at dusk, and it was dark at this time. The four of them walked slowly upward, one foot deeper, one foot shallow, the leaves of the trees were blown by the wind, and from time to time one or two crows chirped and flew overhead. And there is still some moss on the mountain rocks, which is extremely slippery, Yun Chuan leaned on a stick and told everyone to step on it before moving their feet. Yun Chuan thought to himself: I can be considered to be out for Yun Xi, and I will climb the mountain in the middle of the night to explore, but I must not have any snakes, insects and monsters come out, or I will really be scared half to death.

I didn't expect to be afraid of anything! Suddenly, a cold thing slipped on his feet and onto his legs, "Snake!!" Yun Chuan shouted, his whole body jumped up, and his whole body slid backwards, Yu Wenhan hurriedly held on to the trees next to him, and said to Yang Qingyun, "Quick!" ”

Yang Qingyun strode to the front, and held Yun Chuan, who was about to fall down the hill, Yun Chuan completely lost the fulcrum, and the whole person fell into Yang Qingyun's arms, and after standing firmly, he still had palpitations lying on Yang Qingyun's shoulder, patted his little heart and exhaled and said: "I'm scared to death, a snake just slipped through my feet, and everyone laughed!" ”

Yun Xi hurriedly came over to inspect Yun Chuan up and down, and asked with concern: "It's okay, let me take a look!" ”

Yun Chuan realized that he was still lying on Yang Qingyun's shoulder with half of his body, and quickly helped Yun Xun to stand up straight, and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's not biting." You know, I'm just scared of these slippery things. After speaking, he lowered his head and glanced at Yang Qingyun, and the white light sprinkled on him, and he felt a little trance.

Yu Wenhan walked up to him and said, "You didn't bend your feet, did you?" ”

"It's okay, it's really okay, everyone just forget about this time, don't mention it in the future." Yun Chuan thought of the embarrassment just now, and felt a little faceless.

Yu Wenhan played a round for her: "The mountain road is rugged, it is inevitable. Qingyuan, you open the way in front, I'll go to the rear. ”

Yun Xi looked at the two of them, and felt like he was back when he was a child, his cousin and Brother Yang protected themselves one after the other, and couldn't help but smile and say, "Okay!" ”

The four of them helped each other to the top of the mountain. In early summer, the dewy air on the top of the mountain is exceptionally refreshing, the moon is in the sky, the stars are dotted, the breeze is coming, and the heart is relaxed. The four of them found a piece of land to sit down, Yun Xi was not good at physical strength, and his whole body was already like falling apart, rubbing his legs and saying: "When I was a child, I didn't like to climb mountains, and I was often carried by my brother to climb mountains, and I haven't had such treatment for many years!" After speaking, he looked at Qing Yuan and Yu Wenhan, and I didn't know if they had any feelings.

Yu Wenhan looked at Yun Chuan, although he was full of glory and straight, he was obviously not strong enough, and said in surprise: "You said that Brother Yun Chuan carried you?" ”

When Yun Chuan heard this, he laughed, thinking of how this person was sometimes so simple. Yun Chuan handed Yun Xi a look and said, "There are still two hours before the sun can come out, so it's boring to wait." Otherwise, each of us will tell a story about our own embarrassment when we were children. I started it, so I'll talk about it first! Yun Xi responded and said, "I'm fine, what about you?" ”

Yu Wenhan and Yang Qingyun felt that it was okay and nodded.

Yun Chuan pretended to be meditative and said: "There were too many embarrassing things I did when I was a child, I want to say which one!" Yun Chuan didn't lie, although she is a daughter, she is really a boy's character, riding a horse to hunt, climbing mountains and archery, where it is lively, there will be her figure.

"I'll tell you an interesting story about me and my brother." Yun Chuan said and looked at Yu Wenhan and Yang Qingyun meaningfully, and then said: "My elder brother is my cousin, and my greatest pleasure when I was a child was to play tricks on him. When I was a child, I loved to go on horseback riding, but my cousin loved to read and write, and I put a lot of effort into getting him to accompany me. Once my cousin happened to be studying, I was bored in the suburbs, so I found someone to tell him that I fell and injured myself, my cousin hurriedly came to look for me, but I didn't expect that on the way back, I really fell and couldn't go out for half a month. Are you embarrassed? ”

Yun Xi knows this story because it is her own story. It's just that it's not horseback riding, it's kite flying, and in the end, Yu Wenhan returned home with the wrestling Yun Xi on his back, and Yang Qingyun blamed Yu Wenhan for not taking care of himself. Later, the two of them accompanied him for half a month and didn't go out.

After the story was told, Yu Wenhan and Yang Qingyun were silent, and Yun Chuan hurriedly asked, "Do you have a sister?" Have you ever been tricked? ”

Yu Wenhan said thoughtfully: "My brother's experience when he was a child is somewhat similar to my sister. ”

Yun Xi's heart trembled violently when he heard this: "Did the sister he said about himself?" Immediately said: "Brother Wen Han, then you can also talk about it." ”

Yu Wenhan looked up at the night sky and didn't speak for a long time. Yun Chuan was a little anxious, and shouted: "This is not in accordance with the rules, I have said it, but you are not allowed to repay the debt." ”

Yu Wenhan smiled and said slowly: "I was teased by my sister when I was a child, and I was thinking about which one to say. ”

"My sister has been very clever since she was a child, and she often puts some strange things in my books to scare me, in fact, I have been aware of it for a long time, but when I see her so happy, I follow her. Qing Yuan will also take those strange things to scare her in turn, and run after the yard. My sister also did the thing you just said, but not for horseback riding, but for me to accompany her to fly a kite, and in the end I really fell and didn't go out for half a month. I thought that if I had accompanied her in the first place, she wouldn't have said anything. Speaking of this, the four of them fell silent, and Yu Wenhan's eyes seemed to appear in front of Yu Wenxi's previous appearance, giggling and noisy.

Yun Xi's eyes were a little moist, it turned out that since then, he said that he would agree to play with his cousin wherever he went because of this.

Yun Chuan thought that Yang Qingyun, who was as cold as the cold moon in front of him, was really surprised that he could do something to trick people. And Yu Wenhan's eyes are like a pool of inky blue water, oozing with sorrow, which makes people feel a little distressed.

Yun Chuan thought about striking while the iron was hot, and then helped Yun Xi tentatively: "Then what about your sister, why don't you come together this time?" ”

Yu Wenhan looked at Yun Chuan with an innocent face, and thought to himself that there were really people in the world who were similar to Xi'er. I have never liked to socialize with outsiders, but when I met this little brother, I was not disgusted and I was happy to look forward to it. "Eight years ago, my sister moved her family, and we lost touch." Yu Wenhan said in a low voice.

Yun Xi knew that his brother still remembered him, and he was overjoyed, because this brother was out of the house, his mother died early, and the court had no power to cling to. And he is introverted, not good at words, and he was not favored by the emperor at that time, I don't know how he has been doing in the past eight years?

Yun Chuan thought to himself that they were very concerned about Yun Xi, why should they be so worried? So he immediately asked, "Then why don't you go and see?" ”

Yun Chuan's words obviously hit their sore spot, Yu Wenhan's eyes were even darker, and he was silent, making Yun Chuan and the others nervous. "And you know where she is?" Yun Xi asked.

"I don't know." Yang Qingyun replied quietly.

When Yun Xi heard this, he was immediately a little disappointed. Eight years have passed, she doesn't know whether her father Yu Wenhua is alive or dead, and her uncle can't find out any news about her father. Now facing the relatives I was most familiar with as a child, I don't know each other.

Yun Chuan felt incomprehensible, what was there in the world to be so difficult for himself? The game that broke the news of his embarrassment had no intention of going on, Yun Chuan thought that Yang Qingyun hadn't said it yet, a little lost, and just crossed this idea in his heart, Yun Chuan couldn't help but ask himself: What does this person have to do with him, how can he have such a strange feeling?

Yun Chuan couldn't help but sigh when he saw the silent three, and said, "Hey, are we planning to pestle until dawn like this?" Originally, I wanted everyone to say something happy, but it was so heavy. Believe that those you care about will always be with you. There are many things in this world that are difficult to considerate, and it is best to do it according to your heart? ”

"Do it according to your heart" - these four words, Yu Wenxi also said to Yang Qingyun eight years ago that he was infected with the plague, and many people avoided it, and only Yu Wenxi and Yu Wenhan came to visit, Yu Wenxi said outside the door: "We will sit outside the door and chat with you to relieve your boredom, don't care so much, let's just do what we like." ”

Yang Qingyun looked at Yun Chuan, as if Xi'er's voice sounded in his ears back then. By an accidental encounter while climbing the mountain, he had concluded that this person was a woman disguised as a man. Although her temperament is very similar to Yuwenxi, the exotic style between her eyebrows, it is obvious that she is not Yuwenxi, but a girl who grew up in the desert and is as carefree and pampered as Xi'er. Perhaps touched by Yunchuan's "going with the flow", Yang Qingyun responded: "Brother Wen Han's sister is also my very important friend, the world is impermanent, it is difficult to have both, sometimes, not seeing may be the best meeting, no news is the best news." ”

"How do you know if she's happy if you're not there?" Yun Xi asked softly.

"She'll be happy!" Yang Qingxuan was stunned for a moment and replied firmly.

"How do you say this like you're lying to yourself?" Yun Chuan looked at Yang Qingyun and asked, Yang Qingyun looked up at Mingyue and was silent as if she had seen through her thoughts. In my heart, I was silently praying to Mingyue: Climb high and look at the moon today, hoping that Xi'er can always see such a bright and clear moonlight.

Yun Chuan glanced at Yun Xi, who had been silent, for fear that she would fall into the bottomless abyss again, and he had to know how many years of strength he had wasted before pulling Yun Xi out of despair, and hurriedly said: "Do what you want, the most important thing is not to be sad, to know how to cherish life and enjoy time." I'll teach you a way to do something like thisβ€”just don't want to. Let the past go with the wind, everything has its own fate, and you can live a wonderful life to live up to the people who care about you. ”

Yun Xi also let out a "hmm", and the light rose again in his heart. Yes, in the past eight years, it is also because of Yun Chuan's company and enlightenment that she has slowly come out of her panic and despair, although her temperament is no longer cheerful, but fortunately she is not shrouded in hatred, and she also tries to slowly reconcile with her memories.

The four of them leaned against the rocks and rested for a while. The sky was hazy, and Yun Xi was the first to wake up, "Look, the sun is coming out!" ”

The clouds on the horizon were flushed, and a red sun was slowly climbing upward, and a warm golden glow was slowly spreading from the eastern slopes to the summit. All four of them stood up, facing the first rays of the morning sun, the bright red camellia flowers swaying in the breeze, and the fragrance of flowers filled the air.

"Yue Dan reflects the glow, and the breeze sends the fragrance." Yu Wenhan said with a smile.

"The end of the world will confide in, and I only wish for the edge of clouds and water." Yun Xi comprehended.

Yun Chuan applauded beside him: "It's good, then I wish my troubles to be scattered with the wind, and the clouds will open up." ”

"Okay, the clouds will see the sun!"

The sun rose, and the four of them walked down the mountain while admiring the camellia along the road, chatting and laughing all the way. In the heavy wind of yesterday, Yun Xi thought that instead of seeking to understand everything, it was better to cherish the present and seek happiness. To meet again is the best gift from God to himself.

The four of them returned to the inn for a simple breakfast, then went back to their rooms to rest, and made an appointment to meet at noon to discuss the next trip.
