Xiao Yu lay on the dilapidated bench at the entrance of the commissary with his arms on the pillow.

Around him, there was a tight grove.

Sunlight scattered from the canopy of the trees, breaking through the obstruction of the leaves, and projecting onto the ground, the house, and his body.

Speckled shadows, sparsely scattered.

It is a three-way intersection located at the junction of mountains and plains.

Here, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and although there are long highways, there are long-distance buses that come and go.

Xiao Yu was dressed in local attire, as if listening, as if thinking, occasionally turning his head sideways, looking at the girl who couldn't stay idle.

The girl's name was Li Lingyu, and she wore light-colored sportswear and grass-green hiking boots. On top of her hair, she wears a pair of wide sunglasses, which matches her skin, making the girl look fairer and healthier.

At this time, she was leaning over and slowly clasping her hands, trying to grab a beautiful dragonfly.

Xiao Yu and Li Lingyu met at the bus station on a long journey and happened to sit together.

Hearing that the two of them are basically in the same direction, this extroverted girl who travels alone quickly became acquainted with him.

Xiao Yu, who was new to the unfamiliar world and still seemed a little rusty, originally thought that this hearty and generous Li Lingyu was just right for herself to cover up.

As a result, in the end, Xiao Yu, who had quickly adjusted along the way, had no choice but to find that he had become the one who took care of the other party at all times.

This pampered, even a little naïve girl, although cheerful, outgoing and lively, but it is the first time to travel far, and she has never seen too many mountains and wilderness scenery, and along the way, she is very surprised and excited.

When I arrived here, the car I was carrying suddenly broke down, and I had no choice but to put all the passengers in the local area and find a way for myself.

Although this place is remote, there are many passing vehicles, one after another, and many people are also carried away.

It's just because Li Lingyu is constantly amazed by the novel scenery, or taking pictures, or catching insects, and waiting to taste the only local snacks...... In the end, the passengers of the original car were left with the two of them.

In the sound of cicadas, the sun is slanting westward.

Xiao Yu looked at the sky, if he didn't set off, he was afraid that he would have to delay here for a night, so he reluctantly got up and walked to Li Lingyu's side.

"Let's go, it's getting late. Although he spoke softly, the dragonfly flew in response.

"Yike...... You're really!" Li Lingyu pouted.

Xiao Yu smiled, but no longer let her play around, pulled up her backpack, and just like that, he volleyed with one arm and picked up the petite girl.

Not long ago, on the side of the road, an off-road vehicle had just stopped, and it seemed that it could carry people.

A few mountain people were negotiating with the driver and wanted to stop by the way. In the blink of an eye, I saw a tall, thin and handsome young man with long hair, just carrying a girl like this, walking over as if nothing was there, and they were all dumbfounded.

"Don't mind, let's take a ride together?" Xiao Yu smiled and said.

The gentle voice seemed to have a strange charm, which made these people feel at peace, and they no longer had any scruples, his extraordinary strength.

"Okay, okay, please!"

Several mountain people are strong men, and even if they are willing to sit together, the space in this car is not enough.

"What about going to the trunk?" the driver patted his head and looked at Xiao Yu inquiringly.

Xiao Yu nodded indifferently, and Li Lingyu next to him secretly saw that the oily black clothes on those mountain people also nodded again and again.

The trunk of this off-road vehicle is still huge, slightly squeezed, and it is okay to sit down with the two of them.

Leaving this junction, you will find the mountains.

The road facing the river on one side of the cliff is not spacious, twists and turns, and there are many earth pits and falling rocks.

But the old driver is used to driving on this road, skillfully holding the steering wheel, turning left and right, and leisurely, chatting and singing with a few passengers.

The steep mountains, as if split by the river, stand on the side of the water, like two great gates.

Looking out the window, along the road, you can see the greenery and the scattered stone houses.

About two hours later, the car went up to the plateau.

The white peaks in the distance, reflected by the sun, shone with a little silver light, which was the snow that does not melt all year round.

Li Lingyu twisted her body, leaned on the window, looked at the deep cliff on the side of the road, and said tremblingly: "It's so spectacular, it's just a little dizzy......"

"Dizzy, do you still want to watch?" Xiao Yu turned his head and said, "I really want to look, look into the distance, don't look close." ”

"Okay......" Li Lingyu shrank back and inadvertently touched the long piece of utensils wrapped in thick cloth in Xiao Yu's hand.

"By the way, I haven't asked, what is this? Li Lingyu used her curiosity on Xiao Yu again.

"Nothing, a little hobby. Xiao Yu said lightly.

On the plateau, the road became straight again, and soon left the mountainous area, and the scenery on both sides turned into undulating grass and endless spread.

"Wow!" Li Lingyu looked out the window and couldn't help but stretch out her hand.

The sky here seems to be within reach, and the white clouds do not move, just like marshmallows, hanging on the blue curtain.

"Can you eat it......" Li Lingyu swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Soon after, unfortunately, this off-road vehicle also suddenly broke down.

"Hmm......" Xiao Yu looked at the sky, smiled mysteriously, and muttered, "In this way, is it an obstacle......

Li Lingyu had just taken two photos, and she wanted to stay, but she was pulled by Xiao Yu's hand and had to walk forward.

The mountain people who got out of the car were accustomed to it and walked forward.

"You say, will they rob us?" Li Lingyu looked at the big men in front of her and said softly.

The group of mountain people, who seemed to be close to their hometown, hummed, on a whim, looked very heroic and took off their shirts and raised their bare arms.

"Robbery?" Xiao Yu smiled, carrying the wrapped long utensils on his back, "You just have to relax." ”

"Are you going to the county seat too?" said one of the mountain people, turning back and shouting to the two, "It's not far away, and we'll be there tomorrow afternoon." ”

"Let's go, isn't that going to sleep in the open?" Li Lingyu looked at her small bag and felt a little dizzy.

"Don't be afraid, as you say, read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles. Xiao Yu was still calm and persuaded with a smile.

Several people walked on the same road, not lonely at all.

Those mountain people chatted and laughed, sang mountain songs, and occasionally danced unique dances, jumping forward one by one.

Li Lingyu had thick nerves, and soon sang and danced with these strong men who were warmly invited.

Xiao Yu looked at this, and the girl who was still pointing at them trembling before, could only shake her head speechlessly.

The sun was setting and the sky was starting to get overcast.

A mountain man pointed to the sky and suddenly shouted, "Oh, it's going to rain......"

"Rain...... Is it?"

Well, not long after, Xiao Yu unsurprisingly found that what fell from the sky was not soft rain, but crackling and solid hail.

"How do you seem to always encounter bad luck?" Li Lingyu finally reacted a little, and pulled Xiao Yu to complain.

The two of them had no extra shelter, so Xiao Yu held the petite girl in his arms and relied on his body to help her cover it.

"Isn't this very good, if it's smooth sailing, where will you find so much talking about in the future?" Xiao Yu looked back and said softly.

Under the cover of night, no one noticed that the falling hail could not hit his body, but was bounced away at an angle at the moment of contact.

Although the mountain people next to them complained about the sudden hailstorm, the thick clothes on their bodies made them embarrassed, but they did not suffer much.

"Eh, there seems to be a voice on your body...... It's very nice......" I found that this hail was not as terrible as I imagined, and turned my attention again.

"This hailstorm shouldn't last. Xiao Yu said lightly.

"Oh......" Li Lingyu obediently changed the subject and continued, "You say, if it goes on like this, will we not get there, and we will encounter something more terrible, accidentally die...... However, the scenery here is good, and it is worth it as a place to bury bones...... No, I'm so young, it's a pity...... Yikes...... You say......"

Xiao Yu listened to the girl in her arms, chattering, kept talking, and didn't answer, that's it, walking forward steadily.

This kind of obstruction is really nothing to me...... Sure enough, the initial world was extremely weak......

About the third watch in the middle of the night, the mountain people in front suddenly shouted.

It's not to the county seat, it's just a small village halfway through.

Seeing the dozing girl in her arms, Xiao Yu smiled, it also affected her, just take a rest here.

The village house in the middle of the night blocked out the crackling sound outside.

The kind-hearted villagers brought hot noodle soup. Xiao Yu and the mountain people thanked each other and were about to start.

Smelling the aroma, Li Lingyu, who was half asleep and half awake, suddenly woke up, screamed happily, and looked at Xiao Yu with a blank look. Xiao Yu smiled and handed over the noodle soup in her hand, the girl couldn't wait, so she took it and ate it, but with an "ouch" sound, her tongue was burned.

"Haha......" Several people in the room laughed.

After eating supper, several mountain people spontaneously walked out, and one of them turned around and said boldly: "You little couple, sleep here, let's go find another place to live." ”

"Hmm. Li Lingyu was a little shy, but she still agreed for Xiao Yu.

After a simple wash, the two of them lay down in their clothes, the girl was actually a little nervous, but seeing Xiao Yu sleeping next to her honestly, there was no change at all, so she slept with peace of mind.

The sound outside the house has not stopped, but the rhythmic movement is the best lullaby.

Soon, in the house, there was only the sound of a girl's shallow breathing.

A flash of light flashed, and it was Xiao Yu who opened his eyes.

He sat up, looked at Li Lingyu's sleeping back, and smiled.

took out the long piece of utensils wrapped around him, untied one end of the thick cloth, revealing the hilt of the silver sand sword, and the boundary primordial stone shone slightly with a little white light in the middle of the night.

Xiao Yu stood the sword upright, the hilt was facing up, and after letting go, the sword fell in one direction, Xiao Yu reached out and copied it, and returned to his hand.

Slowly re-wrapping the thick cloth, Xiao Yu looked at the direction of the sword just now, silent.
