I don't know how long it took, but when I was halfway through my father's long letter, I felt a sore neck, and the boulder leaning against me became much harder than before, and my back was uncomfortable. I put down the letter, stretched, and looked up to see that it was already pitch black.

Only then did I realize that it was night, and I suddenly felt a chill all over my body, and I stood cold.

Looking at the dark western slope, I suddenly had an incredible thought in my heart, how did I see the words on the letter just now in such a dark night? Could it be that my eyes have the function of night vision?

I quickly picked up the letter and put it in front of my eyes, and I couldn't even make out the words on it, except for the faint outline of the square of the letter.

I was in a state of panic and deep confusion.

Just as I was about to get up, there was a giggling sound behind me.

My heart jumped to my throat, my brain buzzed, and two words came out of my mouth involuntarily: "There are ghosts!"

The laughter grew louder, and a beam of light shone from behind the large rock against which I was leaning, swaying in the night.

I shouted, "Who is it?"

Someone behind the big rock said, "I'm a ghost!"

Before he could finish speaking, a figure jumped out, as if holding a flashlight in his hand.

I heard the voice a little familiar, and when I saw the figure that jumped out, I felt like He Xuanya.

I asked at the figure, "Is it Sister Xiaoya?"

The figure walked up to me and said, "You're peeking at other people's letters, you're all fascinated." I don't even know it's dark. ”

When the figure walked up to me, I saw that it was He Xuanya.

My heart fell back into my stomach, and I complained: "Sister Xiaoya, you are so sneaky, you are scared to death." ”

He Xuanya said: "Why don't you know what to do. I've been flashlighting you for more than an hour, and your arms are numb. You don't thank me, but you blame me. ”

I was surprised and asked, "When I read the letter just now, you gave me a flashlight?" I said, how can I still read the words on the letter in such a dark night? ”

He Xuanya said: "You really can, you haven't found me for so long." ”

I smiled and said, "Sister Xiaoya, why are you here?"

He Xuanya said: "After you left in the afternoon, I chatted with the sailors for a long time. I told him that you weren't playing tricks on him, that what you said was true. Although he was less repulsive, he was still skeptical.

"In the evening, when I was going back to the mountain, I passed by here, and I saw you looking intently against the stones. When I looked closer, it turned out that I was reading a letter. It's getting late, it's dim, and you have a hard time reading it with your face on the letterhead. I turned on the flashlight and illuminated the letter to you, but you didn't react at all, just took the letter a little farther away and continued to read it intently. In this way, I shone the light on you for more than an hour. ”

I smiled again and said, 'Thank you.' ’

He Xuanya shone a flashlight on the south side of the mountain beam on the west slope and said, "Let's go." ”

I said, "Where to go?"

He Xuanya pretended to be angry and said, "Have you forgotten what Master said? Of course, I went to the back mountain. ”

I groaned and followed her in the direction of the back mountain.

As soon as he turned the mountain beam, a dark blue flame jumped out of the pile of rubble in front of him.

He Xuanya and I were both shocked and took two steps back.

The blue flame slowly drifted towards us.

A few meters away from us, the blue flame spoke.

"Don't be afraid, I'm Ranxiangqin. The blue flame said as it moved to me and Hexuanya.

When we looked at it, it was really Burning Celery.

When He Xuanya saw Ran Xiangqin, she was overjoyed, and she stepped forward to take her hand and said, "Why are you here? Didn't you go back from the waterway of Master's Refining Pharmacy in the morning? According to the rules of the manifest world, you shouldn't have appeared here." ”

Ran Xiangqin said: "I was ordered to come to the Wa royal family this time, and before leaving, my grandmother called me aside and told me that among the Wa royal family, the first Ximu has a deep misunderstanding of the drought tribe, and has a stubborn personality, and it is not easy to ask her to agree to let the royal grandson return to the dry fish. Nine times out of ten, my trip will fail. I asked my grandmother if there was any other way to do that. My grandmother told me to find him by all means and ask him what he thought, and if he personally wanted to, there would be no reason for the first Ximu to stop him. ”

He Xuanya shouted, "Oh, how did this come to mind with us." ”

Since pretending to be crazy, I feel that He Xuanya seems to have completely changed as a person, and the image of a gentle lady in the past has been swept away, like the style of a female chivalrous man.

I tugged at her sleeve and said, "Sister Xiaoya, be quiet, so as not to be heard." ”

He Xuanya said: "In the middle of the night, in this deserted place, where are the people listening?" ”

I said, "Then we can't stand here and talk." ”

He Xuanya said, "You're right, we have to find a place to sit down and have a good chat." Master, I definitely won't be able to go there. She said, gesturing to the faint light at the bottom of the col.

"Why don't you go to the shack of the wave family, the uncle of the wave has been beaten up in the past few days, and his father went to help take care of it, and there is only one person in the shack. I proposed.

Ran Xiangqin said anxiously: "That's not good, I can't see the people of the Wa royal family." ”

I said, "Then I'll go and tell him to come down the mountain, and then we'll go to his shack." ”

He Xuanya sneered, glanced at me and said, "You are called the incense burner to drive away the Buddha." Even if he agreed, he went down the mountain in the middle of the night, and the family asked him what to say. ”

After stopping for a few seconds, He Xuanya said leisurely: "Speaking of the shack, I think of a place. ”

I asked, "Where is it?"

He Xuanya said: "The shack of Weilong's family. ”

I asked again: "Does no one sleep in Weilong's shack at night?"

He Xuanya said: "Who dares to sleep! Since my third master heard the noise in the grave in the middle of the night and ran down the mountain in fright, no one has been to the shack again. Later, my third master died, and Weilong's parents rarely even went to that piece of land, let alone slept in a shack. ”

I said, "That's a nice place." I've heard that the shack was built against the grave, and no one should dare to approach it at night. ”

Ran Xiangqin said, "Then let's go." ”

I said, "If you go there, you have to go to Shanyinli, which is full of shacks of Zhuangli people, how can you get past the blue light." ”

After listening to this, He Xuanya said, "Wait." So he ran down the col.

A few minutes later, she returned, holding a black piece in her hand.

She ran over, put the black squirrel on Ran Xiangqin's body and said, "This is Master's big drum, I quietly took it out." Look, isn't it invisible!"

The three of us turned on the flashlights, walked to the mountain pass on the north side of the western slope, turned off the flashlights again, and walked to the edge of Weilong's shack with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

He Xuanya went into the shack and cleaned it for a while, and said, "Come in." ”

All three of us sat in the shack.

"Just now you said you wanted to ask the sailors. Actually, we think the same way, if the sailor is willing to go to the Drought Tribe, then we can help him go. As soon as she sat down, He Xuanya couldn't wait to say.

Ran Xiangqin said: "This is really good, on behalf of the Drought Clan, I would like to thank you two for your help." ”

"That's easier said than done. The sailors don't believe what we say at all now. I said in frustration.

"You have to take your time and don't rush it. This afternoon, after I talked to him, he didn't react as much as he used to. We poured something into his ears every day, and after a long time, he would subconsciously accept those things. He Xuanya said.

"And what should I call this ......, hehe. ”

"I should be older than you, so let's call me Sister Qin. ”

"Sister Naqin, how can she wait for that time. I said.

"Otherwise, Sister Qin, you can go back first, let us slowly tell him the facts that he is difficult to accept, let him believe it, and then ask his opinion. If he really wants then, we will send him to you to the Dryfish. He Xuanya said.

When Ran Xiangqin heard this, a look of embarrassment appeared on her face, and then she sighed and said, "The monarch doesn't know how long it can last. ”

I saw that Ran Xiangqin was clear and complaining, and I also felt sorry for her.

Suddenly, I had an idea, and said, "Everything we told him, in the eyes of the sailors, was a story made up, because nothing proves that what we say is true." Now, the living evidence is here, if the sailors can see Sister Qin, let him know that the Drought Clan really exists, and what his eyes see, he shouldn't believe it. ”

He Xuanya and Ran Xiangqin said in unison: "This method is feasible. ”

I said, "Then you wait, I'll go find the sailors." ”

When he had finished speaking, he got up and went out of the hut.

He Xuanya grabbed me and said, "You don't want to look at what time it is, the sailors should have gone to bed a long time ago." Even if he didn't sleep, he should be in the shack with Uncle Shi Wa now. You went to him like this, what did Uncle Shiwa say when he asked?"

I sat back down on the mat.

He Xuanya said: "This way, Sister Qin, first wronged you to stay here for a day, and tomorrow at nightfall, we will bring the sailors here to meet you." Tomorrow's three meals, Xiao Yuan and I will take turns to bring them to you. ”

Ran Xiangqin said, "It's okay, I'll stay here for a day." I have brought my own dry food and water, and you will not use it to deliver food, so as not to arouse suspicion during the day. ”

He Xuanya said, "Then we will go back first." We'll see you tomorrow night. ”

Ran Xiangqin said, "Let's go back and rest." ”

Out of the shack, I said to He Xuanya: "It's late now, I won't go to the fairy grandmother, do you want to go down the mountain with me, or go back to the mountain." ”

He Xuanya said: "During the summer vacation, I have been staying at Master's place, you go, I will go to the back mountain alone." ”

I asked, "Are you afraid of being alone in such a dark day?"

He Xuanya smiled and said, "You were not afraid to sit alone in the dark for an hour or two just now, I am just a few minutes away, what is there to be afraid of." ”

After speaking, he put the depleted flashlight into his satchel and headed towards the western slope.

Watching her disappear over the hill, I turned and walked towards my shack.
