Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Flowers of the Valley Are Fragrant

"Cold-smoke" Hua Xiaoqi dragged a long voice, searching on the snow, this is the twelfth day, the two have not found Ye Hanyan, Hua Xiaoqi is haggard, tormented, shouting and looking for it, the same is true of Xu Chenfeng on the mountainside.

"Cold-smoke" Hua Xiaoqi called again, sitting on the ground sluggish for a while, his eyes were bloodshot, his lips were cracked, and his fingers were red and swollen, like red-hot tongs, making people dare not stare.

"Hanyan, it's been half a month, you haven't seen any trace at all, we have turned over this piece of scripture, where are you?" Hua Xiaoqi was in a trance, muttering to himself.

"Hanyan, I hurt you, you come to beat me, you come to kill me, I will give you my life back" Hua Xiaoqi grew up under the strict education of his father since he was a child, usually there are not many friends, and there are fewer sincerely, so he has developed a strong sense of vigilance and a maverick character, this time he went out to meet Ye Hanyan, when he rescued him in Jiangcheng, he was a good friend, but he has not completely let go of his heart, this time he chased and escaped all the way in the snow mountain, and he had already regarded Ye Hanyan as a brother of life and death, when Ye Hanyan put life and death for him, and blocked a sword for him, he secretly vowed to be a brother for life, looking at his brother now without a trace, as if he disappeared out of thin air, if Xu Chenfeng didn't stop him from going down the cliff to find it。

Tears flowed all the way on his face and went straight to his mouth, Hua Xiaoqi licked his tongue and swallowed it. With a hand on his shoulder, he patted it twice, and heard Xu Chenfeng say, "You don't have to blame yourself, Hanyan will be fine."

Hua Xiaoqi looked up and was startled, only to see a monster with unkempt face, bloodshot eyes, cracked lips, and a branch in his hand standing behind him, came back to his senses, and said in a trembling voice, "Brother Chenfeng, Hanyan will blame me, I also hurt him, you kill me" Hua Xiaoqi's trembling voice turned into a cry, grabbed Xu Chenfeng's shirt and kept hitting him.

"Listen" Xu Chenfeng pushed Hua Xiaoqi away, "The cold smoke will be fine, now it seems that he fell off the cliff along the avalanche"

"Wouldn't that be even more ......" Hua Xiaoqi shuddered for a moment, his eyes were full of remorse, and he didn't dare to go on,

"With the Huoyang Fruit that you and I gave him to eat, it will recover. Xu Chenfeng thought about it and said, "I can only go down halfway a few times before and after, like I can't go one step deeper if there is a ban and suppression, but I can vaguely see a waterhole, so Hanyan is fine, I can't say that someone below can save him, and when he recovers, he can find a way out."

"Really?" Hua Xiaoqi stood up suddenly, his eyes were full of doubts, inquiries, and confirmations, and he was conflicted in his heart, not knowing whether he should believe it or not, but Xu Chenfeng gave a positive look, and then sat on the ground.

"I've grown so big, I don't have a brother like Han Yan" Hua Xiaoqi looked at this Xu Chenfeng nodded and said, his eyes were full of happiness. In his heart, he decided that Xu Chenfeng's words were half true and half false, but he was unwilling to deny it, he knew that Xu Chenfeng was also under great pressure.

Xu Chenfeng walked over and patted Hua Xiaoqi, nodded, sighed, and then turned around and stood on the top of the cliff and said to the sky, "Hanyan, we are waiting for you in Longhu Mountain", this is Hua Xiaoqi also came to his side, looked at Xu Chenfeng, looked at the sky, and muttered.

"Hanyan, your life was saved by you, we are brothers for life, live and die with you"

Ye Hanyan opened his eyes and found that he was in a wooden house, lying on a wooden bed at the moment, he only remembered that he was pierced through his left chest by a sword of the horse-faced Hu Li, and he didn't remember the others, and he didn't know where he was now, looking around, the interior was simply furnished, simple wooden tables and chairs, and the bed on which he was lying.

"Brother Chenfeng, Hua Xiaoqi" Ye Hanyan called softly, touched the wound, snorted, and wanted to get up, but found that there was pain in his right thigh, and when he reached out and touched it, he lifted the quilt and saw that his thigh was bandaged, and there were blood oozing out.

Ye Hanyan had no choice but to lie down again, half a sound did not get Xu Chenfeng and the two responded, shouted again, still did not respond, got up lightly again, moved off the bed, there happened to be a wooden chair next to the bed, used as a cane, moved to walk, gently opened the door curtain, only to see that there was another hall outside, the same simple furnishings, only one wooden table, four benches, but the door was open, an ancient tree blocked the view, and I couldn't see anything else.

Ye Hanyan came to the door with difficulty, looked up, his eyes were full of surprise, thinking that he was in a dream, he bit his lip and found that he was awake, this is simply a fairyland, which makes people feel refreshed and happy, and they forget to return. But see that this is a paradise, a high mountain in front of you should go to the sight, but another side of the clear lake is like jasper buckled at the bottom of the mountain, the lake is full of mist, looming, such as the dragon Teng auspicious clouds, and like everyone painting, counting the paper, leaving the lake full of spring, both sides of the green luan, the trees are ancient, lush, sometimes there is the sound of water, rattling, sometimes there is the sound of birds, across the sky, bring up a burst of mist, sprinkle flowers, flowers everywhere in front of the door, purple and red, fragrant and full of nose, very comfortable.

Ye Hanyan walked towards the sound of the water, came to the big tree, only to see a clear pool behind the tree, there is a river flying down from the cliff above, turned around and looked up, shocked in his heart, this is the snow peak, this is the valley at the foot of the snow peak, looking at the snow peak that is wrapped in clouds and mist at the end, full of yearning, a row of wooden houses is next to this big tree, the wooden house wood is huge, the roots are intact and spliced, two small windows, left in the middle of the wood, the light is bright.

Ye Hanyan simply put the wooden chair under the big tree, sat on it, faced the Jade Lake, backed by the snow-capped mountain, admired the flowers and listened to the sound of water, how comfortable this is, suddenly, Ye Hanyan was full of curiosity about the owner of this wooden house, what kind of person should he think this is? Is it a fairy like a fairy, or a saint master who stands up to the sky.

He didn't think about Xu Chenfeng and Hua Xiaoqi in his heart, he didn't know that the avalanche caused him to fall off the cliff, Xu Chenfeng Hua Xiaoqi was struggling to search for himself on the snow mountain at the moment, and Hua Xiaoqi swore to the sky that he would be his brother for life, life and death together.

In this spring, in the fragrance of flowers and birds, Ye Hanyan fell asleep gently, with a smile on his mouth, forgetting the pain on his body, only a fairyland-like valley.

"Oh, I'm up," Ye Hanyan heard a voice in the haze, and said. I felt that my right hand was grabbed, and after a while, I gently put it down, and the voice said, "It's a good recovery," the voice said.

Ye Hanyan thought he was dreaming, closed his eyes and shook his head, then he opened his eyes and looked around, startled, and completely awake. But I saw an old man with a hunchback with white hair and eyebrows behind him, his face was full of wrinkles, his face was not very good, his body was not tall, and he was holding a fishing basket and fishing rod in his hand.

"Senior" Ye Hanyan came back to his senses, stood up with difficulty, bowed his hands, and bowed deeply to the old man, and then said, "Thank you seniors for saving me, but I don't know if my two companions are there?"

The old man ignored him, and the vigilance in his eyes was obvious, and he turned around and walked towards the wooden house, but he was limping and lonely. Ye Hanyan didn't know where he offended the old man, and he didn't answer, but he was still vigilant. I saw the old man walk to the door and throw the fishing rod in his hand, Ye Hanyan was very surprised at first glance, the fishing rod flew out but did not fall, but stood next to the window in the far side of the wooden house, the old man threw the fish basket out again, this time the fish basket did not stand on the ground, but directly poured out two golden flat fish, where they snapped and jumped, opening their mouths to foam.

"Clean up these two fish, one is braised and the other is stewed" The old man didn't look back, but he obviously ordered Ye Hanyan. Ye Hanyan was standing there at this time, but the wound was not healed, and it would hurt when he moved, and he needed to recuperate the most at this time, and he could still kill fish and cook there.

But when he heard the old man's words, he nodded and clenched his fists, and slowly walked towards the fish basket, put it back in the fish basket, and put it by the door, and then walked into the house, groped his way to the west kitchen, took out a meat cutting knife, went out of the house to take the fish basket, and went to the clear pool under the tree.

Ye Hanyan found a stone protruding from the water, moved it to the stone, put the fish basket into the water, and let the fish breathe for a while, then grabbed a tail and smashed it directly on the stone, and the fish lay on the stone and passed out, but Ye Hanyan was sweating profusely on his forehead, gritting his teeth and enduring pain.

Ye Hanyan didn't want this fish to endure the pain of breaking his belly and cutting his meat, although he couldn't change his fate, he gave enough respect before he died. The old man also nodded when he saw Ye Hanyan's move, and then walked into the house.

It took Ye Hanyan nearly half an hour to kill two golden flat fish, and it took another hour to make it, a can of fish soup, a plate of braised fish, brought to the table, the old man has been sitting in the house, half a step has not moved, seeing that the fish is cooked, then he walked to the table and sat down, smelled it, shook his head and sighed, "Good two golden flat fish, but you are burned like this, the fish is not gone, the gills are not clear, the fish soup is too much water, this braised fish is not enough, the color is not deep, alas, it is a violent thing."

Ye Hanyan was also embarrassed, at a loss, he didn't know what to say, so he held back for a while before he said, "The seniors scolded that the juniors are also making fish for the first time, and they will definitely improve tomorrow." ”

The old man nodded and said, "I'll taste how it tastes", stretched out his finger and probed into the soup, Ye Hanyan hurriedly reminded that it was too hot, but the old man really turned a deaf ear, put his finger in his mouth and sucked, "Phew, what kind of soup is this", and tore off a piece of braised shark fin, licked it in his mouth, and swallowed it, "Oh, can this still be eaten?" The old man glanced at Ye Hanyan, only to see that Ye Hanyan was embarrassed, just now when the old man asked him to cook fish, he felt that he should have told himself that he couldn't cook earlier, and regretted it in his heart.

How could a son who was weak and recuperating all year round cook in this pot, Ye Hanyan was not dissatisfied at all in his heart, but listened carefully to the old man's count, and blamed himself for not making it clear in advance, and let the old man pick and choose.

"Let's eat it first, burn it tomorrow, if it's still like this, you don't want to eat it," the old man said for a while, and then said.

"Seniors, rest assured, tomorrow will be improved" Ye Hanyan hugged his fists, sat down, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and started eating. This is the first time I cook fish, I have long wanted to taste the taste, it's okay not to eat, after eating, I almost spit out the fish soup in my mouth, it is really unpleasant, no wonder the old man is so hot, the fish soup is too fishy, the taste is completely empty, such as clear soup and little water, this braised fish, it is even more unpalatable, you can also see blood clots in the fish head, it is extremely fishy, a difficult meal, Ye Hanyan was completely convinced by himself.
