Chapter 4: Mad Girl

Zhao Ji drove Li Heng's black Audi car in the direction of the Tusilou ruins.

Li Heng sat in the co-pilot's seat, called Li Shi, and agreed to meet at a place.

"Hey, brother, I'm at the gate...... Waiting for you! Li Shi said intermittently on the phone, "The signal in the mountains is not very good, I hung up the phone!" ”

The road leading to the ruins of Tusilou is a wide and curvy asphalt road. The car crawled up a lazy slope of the road.

The road is lined with extremely lush woods, obscuring the sky and perhaps wild animals.

There is a narrow valley floor in the hollow.

There was a crystal clear stream at the bottom of the valley, noisily flowing from the middle of a messy pile of pebbles. It seems to be hurrying to join the great river behind the dark edge of the ridge.

The red leaves on or under the trees are spread all over the mountains, from the bottom of the valley to the top of the mountain, from the left to the right, scattered little by little, like a girl's red lips, charming and beautiful, so beautiful that people can't open their eyes.

Li Heng exclaimed: "These scenery are so beautiful! ”

Zhao Ji listened, but didn't think so.

But he can judge from Li Heng's words that Li Heng actually has artistic cells in his bones, even if he is not a novelist or screenwriter now, he seems to be an artist who engages in color.

From the town, it takes only ten minutes to drive to the top of the mountain.

I saw a majestic city standing on top of a bare mountain rock. A white sign has a few large red characters written on it: "Tusilou Ruins".

In the city, there is a wooden structure building, after hundreds of years of rain erosion and weathering, although it has lost its outline, but the stone paved streets, earth and stone walls, are still clearly visible.

Although the entire building is blackened and deformed, as if it has been separated by a crack from top to bottom, it is still extremely strong and will not collapse.

Zhao Ji parked his car in a huge parking lot. I saw that there were very few vehicles in the park. The two got out of the car.

Walk slowly up a winding stone path and walk up the stairs to a gate that is still intact.

I saw the moss-covered city wall, connected to the Tusi Tower. Some places are covered with ivy. There were a few small crooked trees, hanging from the gray blast holes and collapsed arches of the towers.

No entrance fee is required to visit the Tusilou ruins, and it is free.

Despite this, there are not many tourists.

As they approached, a figure flashed in front of them. When the two swaggered into the door, they suddenly heard only a "hi", and a woman's voice came from inside the door.

The two didn't expect this trick and were taken aback.

It turned out that it was Li Shi shouting. When she saw them coming, she deliberately hid inside the gate and suddenly rushed out to scare them.

"Ash! What a crazy girl! Li Heng clutched his chest and shouted loudly, "You're about to scare us all to death, I can't stand your scare." ”

Li Shi giggled happily and ignored her brother's complaints.

She was like a fish, slippery. Soon he slid over a pile of ruined walls to a protruding wall almost above the cliff, and sat down.

She turned her face to them and laughed, but she didn't move from where she was sitting.

You know, this move is extremely dangerous.

The protruding wall, almost weathered, was not solid, and was extremely prone to collapse, and there were thousands of cliffs below. In case Li Shi falls, he will fall to pieces.

Li Heng walked over and stretched out a finger to point at her head, scaring her.

Zhao Ji loudly reproached this risky behavior.

"Li Heng, don't go to her, don't you see, is she about to fall?" Then he yelled at Li Shi, "You are too irresponsible for your own life!" ”

"Forget it!" Li Heng whispered to Zhao Ji, "Don't yell at her, otherwise she will cry." ”

"It's scary!"

"You don't know her well. After spending a long time with her, I know how naughty she is. ”

"No matter how naughty you are, you can't joke with your life!"

"Hehe, Ah Shi is such a girl, no light or heavy, just like a naughty child who will never grow up."

"It's naughty indeed!"

"She'll probably climb to the top of the building, believe it or not?"

"I believe, absolutely."

As he was talking, Li Shi came over.

The three of them came to a small courtyard, mostly overgrown with wild apple trees and nettles.

In one corner of the courtyard, there is a standard kiosk selling drinks, beer, mineral water and, of course, a variety of special souvenirs, handicrafts, local specialties and more.

Inside sat a middle-aged woman with glasses.

Now that there were fewer tourists shopping, the woman had nothing to do, knitting a pink sweater by hand while squinting at them through the thick lenses.

They sat on a small stool in front of the kiosk, and Li Heng went to buy beer and peanuts and began to drink.

Li Shi unconsciously sat cross-legged, wrapped her head in a tulle turban, and sat motionless. Her dignified countenance looked clear and beautiful under the clear sky.

However, Zhao Ji glanced at Li Shi from time to time with an extremely uncomfortable feeling today. happened to meet Li Shi looking at Zhao Ji.

The two looked at each other, and Zhao Ji first converged his gaze.

Li Shi smiled.

From last night to now, Zhao Ji has found that Li Shi has something pretentious and very unnatural......

"Is she trying to get me to notice her?" Zhao Ji lowered his head and thought quietly, "Why is this?" It's just childish and naughty, or there are other deep-seated reasons. ”

Li Shi seemed to have guessed Zhao Ji's thoughts.

Suddenly, he threw a unique glance at Zhao Ji chasing wind and electricity, giggled, revealing a row of neat and white teeth, and made another move that surprised Zhao Ji.

I saw Li Shiqu jumping off the bench with his legs, walking to the kiosk, and buying a bottle of mineral water from the middle-aged woman.

"Li Shi, are you thirsty?" Li Heng asked with concern.

"No, I'm not thirsty."

"Then why are you buying water?"

"You see, there's a pot of flowers by the wall that's withered, and it should be watered."

……

Li Heng didn't answer anything.

Li Shi held the bottle of mineral water in his hand, and crawled along the ruin wall again, sometimes stopping, sometimes bending down, with a ridiculous solemn demeanor, and sprinkled water droplets on the pot of flowers.

The droplets shone brightly in the sunlight.

Li Shi's movements looked cute, but Zhao Ji still felt sullen about her, although Zhao Ji couldn't help but secretly admire her flying swallows and dragons, and her delicate and flexible movements.

In a dangerous place on the ruin wall, Li Shi deliberately screamed: "Ah, it's bad, it's falling!" ”

Zhao Ji was frightened, and when he looked up, it turned out that Li Shi was deliberately joking.

I only heard Li Shi laugh again......

Zhao Ji felt even more depressed.

"She's naughty!" The middle-aged woman stopped knitting her sweater and muttered to herself.

"Not really!"

Zhao Ji thought to himself.

"Don't be so sullen, be lenient with her." Li Heng patted Zhao Ji on the shoulder.

Zhao Ji shook his head.

This shook his head, Zhao Ji didn't know whether it was relief or mustard.

In the end, Li Shi poured all the water in her bottle, and returned to the two men in a slender, elegant and moving posture mischievously.

Zhao Ji looked at Li Shi's face with an inexplicable smile. The smile tugged at her slender eyebrows, the bridge of her nose, and her red lips.

The pair of dark eyes narrowed, half with recklessness and cracking, half with heart and eye.
