Chapter 60: Footsteps

The days passed so smoothly, and Gu Tong was also used to the presence of more mountain roses in this house.

Sometimes it feels like a clingy kitten, but Yama is much more docile and well-behaved than a cat, and never stretches out his paws to him.

Seeing that winter is over, spring is coming unhurriedly.

The cuckoo's cry sounded in the forest, and the mountain roses rushed to look for it, Gu Tong had nothing to do, and also walked in the mountains.

In the early spring, the leaves of the trees have just bloomed green, and the magnolia flowers have just bloomed, as if they have been wrapped in a layer of clouds torn down from the sky.

The spring rain fell a few times, and the water of the stream in the deep mountains rose as I saw it.

Gu Tong walked to the side of the stream, the water of the stream was crystal clear, and it could be seen that there were many small fry one finger wide swimming in it.

Looking at this fish, Gu Tong remembered a dish he had eaten in the small fishing boat in Xizhaoxi many years of spring.

Remembering that Shan Gui had eaten fruit all day, his face was pale, and it seemed that he was too thin, so he thought about it and called Shan Gui over.

"Shall I take you out of the mountains?"

Shanzhuo, who was running towards him with a smile, was a little reluctant after hearing this, and no longer approached him, standing in place with his fingertips twisting the hem of his clothes, only hanging his head, and not answering.

Seeing her resistance, Gu Tong coaxed softly, "You don't have to go out for long, it's just a meal." Don't be afraid, you won't see many people. ”

The twisted fingers paused, as if thinking.

Seeing that her attitude had loosened, Gu Tong added another fire, and her voice was lower and gentler, with some bewitchment, like an old father coaxing an ignorant little daughter.

"Do you know, now is the best time in the mortal world, the abyss mountain in this spring is extremely beautiful, but the world is even more beautiful.

There are those children who came back from school, calling friends and holding paper kites, flying high in the air, and the peach blossoms and pear blossoms, red like xia, white like clouds, also bloomed one after another. ”

Shan Gui finally couldn't resist the temptation between Gu Tong's words, nodded, obediently rode on the red leopard, and was about to follow Gu Tong out.

"Silly girl, it's going to scare people if you go out like this", Gu Tong stopped the red leopard and brought the mountain roses down.

Shan Gui looked at him with some puzzlement, "Gu Tong, why can't you take Ah Bao there? And why have you changed? Not as good-looking as you used to be!"

"This leopard is your good friend, you are not afraid of it, but the villagers have not seen it, but they will be afraid. I am an immortal monarch, if I show people as I am, then we will not be able to be at peace during this meal. ”

Shan Gui looked back at the red leopard, a little reluctant, but still followed Gu Tong.

Gu Tong originally wanted to take advantage of this warm spring day, take a walk first, enjoy the scenery of the sandwich road, and then teleport to Xizhaoxi with the mountain gems.

After walking for a while without paying attention, Shan Gui slowly stopped behind.

Gu Tong looked back at her, "Why don't you leave?"

"Foot pain", Shan Guijiao said coquettishly, the pair of snow-white bare feet standing on the ground rubbing against each other, and the instep and soles of the feet were scraped with some blood.

She usually either rides on the red leopard, or steps on the soft grass, walking so many dirt roads like today, it is the first time, her feet have already begun to hurt, looking at Gu Tong has been enjoying the scenery next to her, she didn't speak, and silently endured a tear.

"I actually forgot", Gu Tong patted his head, showing a rare youthful spirit, "Blame me, blame me, I'll take you to teleport over." ”

He asked Shan Gui to pull his sleeve, and in a blink of an eye, the two of them were already beside Xizhao Creek, there were several fishing boats, but the distance was a little far, and the road was all small stones washed up by the stream, and it was not easy to walk.

Gu Tong looked at the market hidden behind the fishing boat, and Ling Shangui sat by the stream, "You wait for me here obediently for a while, don't go anywhere, I'll be back immediately." ”

Shan Gui didn't, only firmly pinched the corner of his clothes, Gu Tong patted the back of her hand soothingly, "It's okay, you see there are many small pebbles next to here, you throw them into the stream to play, throw them into the stream and I'll come back when you throw them to thirty." ”

He leaned down and picked one up, threw it into the stream, and brought up a circle of ripples, Shan Gui also felt funny, let go of the corner of Gu Tong's clothes, and hurriedly grabbed a handful of gravel in his hand, "Then I'll start throwing it now, thirty you will come back." ”

"Hmm", Gu Tong looked at her like a child, throwing a small stone out, so he clapped his hands and laughed for a while, his eyes were dyed with some tenderness, and his figure gradually disappeared.

"Twenty-eight, go", this time this one was thrown very far, Shan Gui smiled and clapped her hands, and suddenly felt a slight pain in her neck, she reached out and touched it, the pain quickly disappeared, and there was nothing abnormal.

"If there are two more, Gu Tong should come back", she never called him Xianjun, because those villagers called him Xianren and Xianjun, so she called him Gu Tong, and she was the only one who called him that.

Shan Zhuo thought like this, with some sly light in his eyes, "Twenty-nine, go!"

"Plop", as soon as the stone entered the water, Gu Tong came back, and Shan Gui looked at him and smiled.

"Gu Tong, why do you pinch the time so well! Look, I still have one in my hand", she spread out her snow-white palm, and sure enough, there was still a gravel lying inside.

Gu Tong approached her and put down a pair of green embroidered shoes embroidered with cuckoos, which he had bought at Miao Nu's stall.

The toe of the shoe stood on the pointed tip of the shoe, which looked more perverse than the ordinary embroidered shoes, but like she ran crazy in the deep mountains.

"I bought it by the size of it, you try it. ”

Shan Gui was very happy, and hurriedly took it, and lifted the black skirt, revealing the snow-white and clean feet, and she just dripped in the stream.

Stepping into it, not too big or too small, the green lining made her exposed feet whiter, she walked to the stream with her skirt, looked down for a while, and laughed out loud when she was in the water.

"This flower is so beautiful", she spun around happily, and her ankles looked slender and beautiful. The skeleton of her whole body is small, with thin wrists and thin ankles, revealing a fragile beauty.

Gu Tong turned his gaze to the side, "Okay, now put on your shoes, let's go to the fishing boat, and I'll treat you to a good dish." ”

"Huh?"

Shan Gui was still in joy and glanced at him ignorantly.

"Haven't you eaten anything but fruit before?"

"And steamed buns", Shan Gui swallowed his saliva, remembering the white and soft steamed buns, and the slight sweetness when they reached his mouth.

That steamed bun was eaten by an aunt in Zhuangzi many years ago.

"Where were you before you arrived at Yuanshan?"

"Shan Gui has no one around me since I was a child, and when I was very young, for some reason someone always wanted to arrest me, and once they arrested me in a building, and the girl in that building was very good-looking, but she locked me in a dark room and didn't give me anything to eat.

I was hungry and afraid, so I hid in the mountains all the year round when they were not paying attention, and then a terrible monster came from the mountains, and I ran out again, and fled to the village at the foot of the deep mountains. ”

No wonder she was so afraid of people at that time, and she didn't speak well, but she got along well with the little beasts in the mountains.

"It's all in the past, now you don't have to be afraid", Gu Tong took pity on her experience and comforted her gently.

Shan Gui looked up at him and nodded solemnly, "Gu Tong, can I always be by your side?"

"Yes", Gu Tong hesitated slightly, but still agreed.

The lifespan of mortals is too short, and having her in the past few decades is not a very troublesome thing for me.
