Song Zhizhen listened, his eyes turned red, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Okay, thank you Senior Brother Bai." After a pause, he asked, "Yesterday I heard you say that you will leave in a few days, have you decided?"

Bai Yixue said: "Yes." When I went south this time, I thought that I would be able to recover my master's order in just a few months, and I didn't want to travel too much on the road...... If I don't catch up and can't return to the snowy mountain as scheduled, my master will be worried. ”

Song Zhizhen said "um" and said: "The snow mountain is called the snow mountain, is it snowing all year round? I have grown so big, I have never seen a snow mountain." ”

Bai Yixue smiled: "Snow mountains also have four seasons all year round, and in spring, the mountains will also be full of wildflowers, red, yellow, white, and purple...... There are all kinds of colors, but the snow on the top of the mountain does not melt all year round, so it is called a snow-capped mountain. The cold party of Suihan Mountain Villa is scheduled for this year's winter solstice, and in a few months, Zhong Shibo will leave for the meeting, so it is better for the junior sister to come together, and I will take you to have a good time in the snow mountain. ”

Song Zhixuan's eyes flashed with a strange light, and he said happily: "Really?"

Bai Yixue said with a smile: "Senior Sister Song can come, I can't ask for it, but the snow mountain is a bitter cold place, and the top of the mountain is covered by white snow rock ice all year round, in fact, there is nothing to play. ”

Song Zhizhen thought to himself: "Fool, as long as you are here, even if the snow mountain is bitterly cold, it is better than the splendid Jiangnan." She looked at the green mountains in the distance with her eyes and said quietly: "Where are the words?" I was born in the humble and humid land of Jiangnan since I was a child, I have grown so big, and I have never been far away, I have long been tired of staying, besides, I really want to see the majestic snowy mountains and see what the snow lynx looks like. Well, when you get to the snow mountain, you can catch a snow lynx for me to play, okay?"

Bai Yixue said with a smile: "That's not simple, when the time comes, Senior Sister Song and all the senior brothers and sisters will come together, and I will wait for you in Suihan Villa." When I have time, I will take you into the mountains to catch snowy lynx. ”

Song Zhizhen sighed softly and said, "We just talk about being happy, well, Senior Sister Zhong has never been to the Snow Mountain, and she likes to play everywhere, Master and Master will definitely take her there, Senior Brother, she will definitely go too...... I don't know if Master and Master won't take me there. ”

Bai Yixue said: "Senior Sister Song really wants to go, and when I have the opportunity, I will come and talk to Zhong Shibo and Mrs. Zhong." ”

Song Zhizhen listened to the flow of autumn waves, and the pear vortex appeared, and said happily: "Okay, if you open your mouth, the master and the master will definitely agree." ”

In the early morning of the next day, Bai Yixue got up early, washed and then walked towards the pier, along the way but saw the red apricots burning, green willows fluttering, the scenery is very pleasant. Not long after walking, I saw Luo Wu waiting at the dock from a distance.

The two chatted while waiting for Song Zhijing. As soon as Bai Yixue asked Luo Wu, she learned that Song Zhining's parents were buried at the tip of her lover, and then asked about her life experience, Luo Wu sighed: "Miss Song is not only beautiful, but also has good eyes, but ...... But he was a hard-working child. Then Song Zhijing's parents died one after another, and he was adopted by Zhong Mobi.

Bai Yixue was shocked at first when she said that Song Zhixuan's parents died of illness, but she didn't expect it to be such a horrific bloody case, and asked, "That guy...... The strongman has never been brought to justice?"

Luo Wu said hatefully: "Isn't it, the local government was already gloating about this case, and they finally reported it to their boss, saying that they were in Songjiazhai, arranged the eyes and ears of the government, and successfully provoked Songjiazhai to merge with another cottage, so that the case was hastily closed with two cottages 'black eating black', and the local government was also rewarded by the boss for this." Poor Song Daxia and Mrs. Song went in this way, the murderer is still at large, if they know under Jiuquan, it will be difficult to look at it. ”

The white-clothed snow was about to cry. Luo Wu sighed: "When Song Daxia and Mrs. Song passed away, Miss Song was already old and had memories, and she wanted to avenge her parents, but she couldn't do it, and her heart must be very bitter." If it weren't for the owner and Mrs. Zhong Zhuang who took her in, and treated her like their own flesh and blood, I don't know if she would have survived all these years. ”

The two sighed, and saw Song Zhizhen and Qiu Yunluo from a distance, carrying a food box in their hands, and walked over. Bai Yixue turned her head and quietly wiped away the tears in her eyes, stepped forward, took the basket in the hands of the two, and said, "Senior Sister Song, Senior Sister Qiu, you are early." ”

Qiu Yunluo said: "In the Qingming Festival of previous years, Fifth Brother Luo and I accompanied Senior Sister Song, and this year there is Senior Brother Lao Bai." ”

Bai Yixue hurriedly said: "Senior Sister Qiu will see the outside when she says this. I'm a junior, so it's right to kowtow to Senior Sister Song's Venerable Lady a few times. When Song Zhizhen heard this, his eyes turned red, and he nodded at him slightly, his eyes full of gratitude. Bai Yixue led them to the boat.

Qiu Yunluo raised her face, greeted the morning sun, took a deep breath, and said: "'It rains a lot during the Qingming Festival', I remember that in previous years, it was always raining during the Qingming Festival, and the road up and down the mountain was not easy to walk at all. As he spoke, he smiled at Bai Yixue and said, "This year is a rare good weather, this is all thanks to Senior Brother Bai's blessing, Senior Sister Song, don't you say?"

Song Zhizhen glanced at Baiyi Xue, lowered his head, and said a soft "um" in his mouth, which was almost inaudible.

Luo Wu smiled and said: "Yes, the weather is sunny today, and the road to the lover's tip is easy to walk, and we can come back before dark in the evening." So saying, he jumped ashore, and was about to untie the rope and prepare to set off. Qiu Yunluo suddenly let out a soft "ouch" and covered her stomach with her hand. Song Zhen was shocked: "What's wrong with you?"

Qiu Yunluo's face flushed slightly, and she whispered in her ear, "I...... I have a bit of a stomach ache......"

Song Zhixuan's face showed a look of anxiety, and said, "What should I do then?"

Qiu Yunluo frowned and said, "Senior sister, I'm ...... My stomach hurts so badly that I can't stay with you......"

Bai Yixue and Luo Wu noticed something unusual, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask, Song Zhizhen said: "Senior Sister Qiu is suddenly a little uncomfortable, but it's not a big deal, just rest at home for a while." ”

Luo Wu heard this and said, "Since Miss Qiu is not feeling well, she will stay in the villa and have a good rest, and Bai Gongzi and I will accompany Miss Song." ”

Qiu Yunluo said: "Then there are two Laos." "Get off the boat. The three of them waved goodbye to Qiu Yunluo, and Luo Wu untied the cable and rowed towards the center of Nian Lake.

The lake surface of Nian Lake is broad, in the spring of March, the lake water dissolves, the peaks and Lans loom in the distance, and the scenery is very pleasant.

Luo Wu's arms were like flying oars, and the boat crossed most of the lake and turned into a winding river. The small river is murmuring, tender yellow and light green season, the waterside is full of grass and trees, and the two banks are planted with weeping willows, and there are flowers and trees between them. The boat shuttles in the river, the green silk of the willow trees on both sides of the river, spit out the verdant spores, swaying, and the scenery is changed compared with the lake and mountains of Nian Lake.

When the boat was traveling, Song Zhizhen took out the purple gold flute from his bosom and gently put it to his lips, and the elegant and clear sound of the flute suddenly spread far away along the flowing water.

Bai Yixue didn't know the rhythm of music, and she had only heard Master Hu Wanggui play the guzheng before, so she listened quietly at this time, but felt that the sound of Song Zhi's flute was very different from it. Master's guzheng, between pressing, slipping, chanting, and kneading, most of its songs are somber and sad, quite desolate, and the sound of the Song Zheng is clear and clear, with a sense of ethereal elegance, which makes people feel as if they are in the mist-shrouded empty mountains and valleys, and the gentle breeze blows through, blowing away all the sorrows and sorrows in people's hearts.

The white-clothed snow looked at it intently, Song Zhi's starry eyes drooped slightly, her lips opened slightly, and a pair of slender and white slender hands glowed with soft fluorescence in the sun, and this fluorescence and the blue-purple halo emitted by the purple gold flute reflected each other, adding to the magnificence, dazzling, and dizzying.

Bai Yixue was flustered for a while, and didn't dare to look again, feeling that even if she looked at it more, she would blaspheme the beauty, turned her head away, closed her eyes and listened to the ethereal sound of the flute. He was indulging in this beautiful music, and suddenly, the sound of the flute changed, and the tune of the purple gold flute changed dramatically, becoming lingering and compassionate, not only like a long and melancholy pour out in the distance, but also like a low and affectionate whisper in the ear, telling people endless feelings of longing.

It turned out that the song played by Song Zhijing was called "Empty Mountain Reminiscences of the Old People". According to legend, this song was composed by Cai Yong, a writer of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the whole song is divided into six sections, with ups and downs in tone, and the melody is advanced layer by layer and there are many repetitions, just like tossing and turning when missing the old man, the heart tide rises and falls, and the full of pouring is inexhaustible.

The whining song lingered in Bai Yixue's ears, and he couldn't help but feel sorry in his heart: "Senior Sister Song went to pay tribute to her parents today, and her heart evoked endless thoughts. ”

The boat traveled along the river for more than an hour, and the river became narrower and narrower, and the water became shallower and clearer. The river turns a bend and enters the valley, where the bottom of the river is full of pebbles, large and small, and occasionally fish can be seen playing in the middle, while the banks are surrounded by green peaks and craggy cliffs.
