Chapter 13: Between the Mountains

The name of this mountain is Qingya Mountain, it is an inconspicuous mountain peak in the county of Xiqing County, it is about 200 zhang high, there is a Lijia Village at the foot of the mountain, it is seventy or eighty miles away from the county seat of Xiqing County.

On weekdays, except for woodcutters who go into the mountains to cut firewood, few people go up the mountain, so it is a little deserted here.

Halfway up the mountain, a dense green bamboo forest grows just right, and along the rugged mountain road, through a path that has been carved out, at the end of the bamboo forest sits a courtyard made of bamboo and thatch.

There are three or two bamboo houses, and these flowers and wild vegetables are planted in the small yard.

With a squeak, the bamboo door that looked rather old and yellowish was gently pushed open, and a black-haired girl dressed in white jumped and ran in.

"I haven't been back for a while, and the house still looks the same."

Immediately afterwards, a woman in Tsing Yi walked in with a girl of eighteen or nineteen, and the group of three walked for half an hour on the mountain road, and finally arrived here.

Walking to the eaves and falling down to sit down to rest, the woman in Tsing Yi asked the white-clothed girl who was jumping back and forth in the courtyard: "Zhi'er, go get some water for your junior sister." ”

"Okay, Master."

When the girl in white heard this, she pushed open the door of the hall in a hurry, took out a simple wooden barrel from it, and then ran through the eaves towards the backyard.

After a short time, the girl in white came back with a wooden bucket, carried it in front of the eight or nine-year-old girl, took out a water scoop, scooped a scoop of water from the bucket, and handed it to the other party.

"Oh, the spring water on our mountain is sweet, senior sister, you drink it openly, and you are full!"

"Senior Sister Xie."

The girl had been on the mountain road for a long time, and she was also very thirsty, so she took the water scoop and took a big sip directly, and then wiped her mouth with unfinished eyes.

"Drink, why don't you drink it, there's a big bucket!" The girl in white pointed to the bucket full of water and said with a smile.

"Isn't Senior Sister thirsty?"

"Hee-hee, I drank it when I was just fetching water."

"Then give it to Master."

This white-haired girl is very discerning, she doesn't drink water to dig the well, scoops up a scoop of water and sends it to the woman in Tsing Yi, and says respectfully:

"Master, please drink water!"

"Ying'er has a heart."

The woman in Tsing Yi smiled slightly, took the water scoop to the corner of her mouth, lifted the veil and drank it in small sips.

"Senior sister is really good at pleasing Master, why didn't I expect it." The girl in white on the other side couldn't help muttering when she saw this scene.

The woman in Tsing Yi had very keen ears, raised her eyes to look over, and beckoned.

"Weaver come here."

"Come on, come on."

"Wait a minute, you take your junior sister to the back mountain to freshen up, tonight the two of you live in the same room first, and then let the two of you live separately after cutting some bamboo for the teacher in two days and building a new bamboo house."

"Don't bother Master so much, I'll live with my junior sister."

"It doesn't have to be like this, and it's not difficult to build another bamboo house." The woman in Tsing Yi shook her head.

"Okay, I'll listen to Master's arrangement."

Afterwards, the three of them walked into the hall.

The decoration of the house is somewhat simple, only a bamboo table, a few chairs, and some ordinary daily necessities, it can be seen that life on the mountain is very simple.

The white-haired girl stood behind the two, secretly looking at the unfamiliar environment, thinking that this was the place where she would live for a long time in the future, and she couldn't help but start looking forward to the future.

Everything is a new beginning, and I don't know what the future holds.

After about a stick of incense.

At the edge of a waterhole in the back mountain, looking up at the waterfall flowing down from the mountain stream, her ears were full of rumbling sounds, Hua Ying lightly unbuttoned her clothes and took off her clothes.

The water in the pool was very cold, and as soon as she entered the water, Hua Ying was stabbed and shivered, and the soles of her feet slipped and the whole person almost fell in.

Although it was a little unbearable, she still managed to soak her body in the pool. Soon, as the residual smell of blood on her body was washed away by the water, she gradually got used to it.

After Hua Ying cleaned it briefly, she lowered her head and stared at the bruises on her abdomen through the clear water, and couldn't help but hate the white-robed Taoist even more.

Thanks to that Dao person, the pain in her stomach has not dissipated in the past few days, that is, she has only gotten better after taking Master's pills today.

Hua Ying really didn't know what the Dao person was using to hit her at that time, it was so vicious, she fainted without even reacting, and vomited a lot of blood.

After cleaning for a long time, she couldn't stand the cold, crawled out of the pool, and was just about to put on her clothes, but a crisp female voice came from afar.

"Has my sister washed it? I've taken it for a change of clothes, you can see if it fits. ”

It's the voice of the senior sister.

She turned around and jumped into Tan, lying on Tan's side with only her arms exposed, and shivered with the cold: "Senior sister, you put your clothes there, I'll go over and get them myself." ”

Taking advantage of the fact that the other party had not approached, Hua Ying hurriedly stopped her. Although she is also a girl, she is not too embarrassed to appear naked in front of her senior sister, not to mention that senior sister is still a childish ghost, maybe how to mess with herself later.

So, it's better not to come here.

"What? I can't hear what you're talking about, the waterfall is too noisy, and you can say it again when I'm closer. ”

"I mean......"

Hua Ying was about to raise her voice and repeat the words again, but it was too late.

Qin Xiangweaving's footsteps were fast, and he came to Tan's side in the blink of an eye, leaned over to look at the white-haired girl in Tan Shui, and handed over a set of clothes with his hand with a smile.

"This is what Senior Sister I wore when I was a child, you can see if it fits. Master said, "Tomorrow I will take you down the mountain to the market town and ask the tailor to make some new clothes, and today you will wear them first." ”

“......”

Hua Ying didn't know if her senior sister really didn't hear her speech or deliberately didn't hear it, but since she had already come over, she couldn't say anything more.

"I'm going to wash it for a while, senior sister, you put your clothes here and go back first."

"Ah, haven't you washed it yet, it's easy to get cold when it's cold and washed for too long, come out quickly, senior sister will help you see if the clothes fit."

Qin Xiangzhi was very concerned about Hua Ying's appearance, and squatted on the side of Tan to fish Hua Ying out of Tan Shui.

"I... I'm not well, I'm not going out. ”

Hua Ying was so frightened that she left the shore, and her whole body was immersed in the pool water, revealing only half of her little white head floating on the water.

But the water was so cold that she shivered after soaking for so long, so she gritted her teeth and insisted, and her mouth kept bubbling out.

"Senior sister... You first... Grunt... Let's go... Grunt... I'll be back right away... Gollum ......"

Qin Xiangzhi saw the appearance of the junior sister in the water, and her bright eyes couldn't help but show a hint of cunning, she pretended to be calm and said, "Then I'll put the clothes here, you can wash them and go back early." ”

"Uh-huh."

Seeing that the other party finally put down his clothes and turned to leave, Hua Ying in the pool breathed a sigh of relief, slowly swam to the shore, rubbed her arms and climbed up from the water.

"It's really cold."

As she picked up her clothes and put them on, she couldn't help but complain, and it was really cold to stay in the pool for a while.

Suddenly, Qin Xiangzhi, who had been away for a long time, turned back.

"By the way, junior sister, I forgot to bring you the bath towel just now, wipe it and then put on your clothes, so as not to catch a cold."
