Text Chapter 012 Lost in the Canyon
Looking at the happy appearance of the cuckoo, Yuebai didn't bother, just smiled and watched, watching her smile and the water splash in contrast, watching the wind gently caress the water, the light and shadow are colorful, the water is shining, and the years are quiet, but that's it.
"Aunt Yue, where should we go now?"
Yuebai touched the cuckoo's little head, "Let's go down the mountain first, go to the nearby market and then inquire about the location of Xianlu Town." ”
"Okay. ”
Yuebai took the rhododendron by the hand and walked across a flat meadow, the ground slowly sloping downward, spreading green grass and miscellaneous unknown wildflowers swaying in the wind. It's wide, it's beautiful, it's moving. It's a huge canyon.
Yuebai had no sense of direction at all, not knowing where this was or where to go.
The cave behind you, the canyon in front of you. It seems to be a secret place that no one has ever set foot in, a peaceful paradise, so quiet that people can't take their eyes off it, and they can't take their legs off. No matter what, I still have to leave here, I don't know how worried the eldest sister is outside. It seems to be going through this canyon and out of this picturesque place.
No matter.
"Let's go. ”
"Aunt Yue, come, I'll put it on for you, beautiful. "After all, the cuckoo is a child's nature, although there are many hardships, when I see these flowers, I can't help but pick them and put them in my hands, put them on my head, and also help Yuebai decorate them.
The cuckoo jumped forward and rushed downward.
"Ahh ”
Watching the cuckoo run all the way down, Yuebai also ran along, "Be careful, don't fall." ”
The grass slopes are getting steeper and steeper. There is still a long way to go down to the valley bottom.
"Aunt Yue, let's slide down. ”
Yuebai looked at the slope from afar, and there was no shelter. There are not many trees, and there are a few growing scattered. Pull out some grass of about the same length on the spot, rub it into a "rope" with your hands, there are more and more ropes, Yuebai trapped the ropes together over and over again according to the shape of "Hui", and actually turned into a straw raft, Yuebai trapped the two straw rafts together. Looking around for a dead tree, Yuebai saw that the bark was still intact, peeled off the bark, and scraped the rotten part of the bark surface, leaving a milky white smooth bottom skin, and put the treated bark through several large holes, and used a ribbon through the holes to tie it to the grass raft.
Yuebai asked the cuckoo to sit on the raft, and he also sat on it, tying himself and the cuckoo together with a ribbon, and the raft was also connected together.
"We're leaving. ”
Yuebai propped her hands and feet on the ground, one with both hands, kicked her feet, put her feet back on the straw mat, and hugged the cuckoo tightly with both hands.
The raft went down. The smooth bark of the tree follows the silky grass of your hair.
"It's so fun. ”
The cuckoo raised his hands and cheered to his heart's content.
After sliding for a long time, I finally fell to the bottom.
Strange flowers grow at the bottom of the valley. The pink-green grass plant has oval leaves, and the flowers are large and bright, with a unique sky blue, noble snow white, unrestrained orange, enchanting purple red, and intense red. The flowers in the mountains and valleys swayed gently, and a sweet and bitter floral fragrance permeated the entire valley.
"It smells so good. ”
"Don't suck. ”
Yuebai consciously told herself that this flower was too beautiful, the fragrance was too strong, and the planting area of these flowers was very neat and orderly, and someone must have deliberately cultivated it, why was it planted in such a secret place?
Yuebai carefully took the rhododendron through the acres of flower fields, and vaguely saw a few huts, which turned out to be inhabited here. That's great. She was about to go to a house and knock on the door. Suddenly, an ugly hunchbacked man sprang out from behind the flower field. Startled, Yuebai couldn't help screaming, hunched back waved his hand again and again, and opened his mouth wide in a hurry, but he didn't make any sound, it turned out to be a mute. Yuebai looked at his hands and gestured, knowing that he might be telling himself something.
The dumb finger pointed to the flower field, pointed to the hut, waved his hand again and again, and pointed to the right side, and used his finger to compare the pattern of walking.
Suddenly, the door to the hut opened, and a strong man came out of the house. The mute immediately squatted down and pulled Yuebai with his hand. The cat walked around the back of the flower fence and signaled Yuebai not to lose it.
Yuebai saw that the people who came out of the hut were full of flesh and menacing, and they didn't seem to be good. When he first arrived, it was not easy to make enemies, so he quietly followed behind the hunchback, and the three of them walked through about 4,5 acres of flower fields. The cuckoo was scratched by the bamboo tip on the fence, and couldn't help but cry out "ah". The hunchback man tried to cover the cuckoo's mouth, but the strong man could already hear it. Running this way.
"There are people there, catch them. ”
The hunchback man skewered out, Yuebai hurriedly followed behind, the cuckoo man walked in small steps, and ran not fast, Yuebai picked up the cuckoo, carried it on his back, bundled it with a ribbon, and hurriedly ran out. The strong man was very familiar with this place, Yuebai and the hunchbacked man did not run fast, and sooner or later they would be caught up, and the strong man kept calling for help from others.
After running a few miles away, the flower field was finally gone. There were big trees planted outside the fence, and the strong man was panting, but he still didn't give up, and still followed, and it seemed that he would not stop until he caught them.
The mute pulled Yuebai behind a tree, knelt down towards Yuebai, and took out a crumpled letter from his bosom. Yuebai hesitantly took the letter, pointed in the direction dumbly, pushed Yuebai, and gestured to Yuebai to run. But he sat down solemnly. The strong man chased after him to the place where the mute was, and when he saw that the mute saw that he had no reaction, he threw it with a slap. The dumb man was knocked to the ground, "Why don't you run, dead dumb?" lifted his leg and kicked it on the dumb man's hunchback, and the dumb man spurted out a mouthful of blood with a pop. The dumb man hugged the strong man's thigh, his mouth full of blood, but he grinned. "Make you laugh, make you laugh. The stronger the man became, the more excited he became, but the dumb man never let go.
Yue Bai gritted his teeth and ran wildly in the direction of the dumb man's guidance.
Along the way, there was a lot of wind in my ears.
It was getting late, and the sky was slowly getting dark, but I still didn't get out of the Grand Canyon. Fortunately, the strong man never chased after him.
After days of running and hunger, Yuebai is really tired, but it will be very dangerous not to go out of the Grand Canyon at night. Yuebai barely bothered to pull herself up, and her steps kept moving forward. It was dark, and Yuebai groped her way forward, so she was so tired that she stopped to rest.
"Aunt Yue, I'll go by myself, I'm too tired to carry me. ”
"It's okay. I'll just take a break. It is not safe to see clearly at night. ”
It wasn't very bright in the moonlight, and the canyon was rocky and rocky.
I don't know how long you've been fumbling?
After a long time, I finally saw a small village, it may be too late, the farmhouses in the village are not lit with candles, and they are probably already asleep. Yuebai still knocked on one of them with the mood of trying. Looking at the hoes, nails, rakes and sickles in the courtyard of this family's house, they are placed in an orderly manner, and the bundles of firewood are trapped neatly, and they are serious farmers. She knocked on the door of the courtyard, and perhaps the owner had slept too deeply, and no one answered the door. Yuebai turned away in disappointment, turned around, and the cuckoo went to touch the door. The door unexpectedly opened a small crack, Yuebai was overjoyed, walked sideways into the courtyard, and closed the door.
Although there are no beds in the courtyard, it is better than sleeping in the open. Fortunately, there is a scaffolding on the firewood in this courtyard to keep out the rain and night dew. "Juan'er, let's rest here at night. Yuebai was a little apologetic. "Well, Aunt Yue, I don't know what happened to the young master and Aunt Xiang?" the cuckoo obediently leaned on Yuebai's knees. "Yes. Yuebai didn't know what to say, so she had to respond vaguely, life and death are not servants, they are all some worrying news, don't say it!
