You can’t see thousands of miles away, but when you raise your head, you can only see thousands of mountains low. The mist on Tianfeng Ridge is misty, the pines and waves penetrate your ears, and you can have a panoramic view of thousands of scenes.
Ling'er couldn't help but spread her arms, closed her eyes and enjoyed the pleasure that nature brought to her. Since it had just rained, the air in the mountains was extremely fresh. She breathed heavily, loving this rainy day.
Suddenly an idea came to her, so she went to find her friend.
Zi Xin is working as a female hostess in the house.
"The elixir is all ready," Zi Xin said, "otherwise, how would you remember me?"
Ling'er sat down and smiled while watching her embroidery. Zi Xin understands me. Hey, the cave you embroidered looks so familiar."
"Isn't it the same cave we used to go to when we were kids?" Zi Xin said.
Ling'er remembered, "It's the cave on the edge of Zizhi Valley that I haven't been to for a long time."
Zixin smiled and told the truth, "We actually go there very often, but Some people only care about Zizhi and other herbs and don’t enter the cave.”
“Could it be that you wait for me to collect herbs in the cave every time?” Linger guessed boldly.
"Of course, the cave is high up. You can overlook the entire Zizhi Valley from the entrance of the cave. That way, you can be protected at any time."
"Protect me. Why do I feel like you abandon me every time?" I'm alone, where can I go to play?" Ling'er finally figured out why Zi Xin always came back immediately after collecting the medicine.
"It's so eerie and scary there, how can I trust you alone?" Zixin didn't understand why Ling'er's clever mind sometimes didn't work well.
"That's right. Zixin is really good to me," Ling'er said with deep meaning.
Zi Xin asked in confusion, "Where do you want to go to collect medicine again? Don't the two Zhong brothers have time to accompany you?"
"It's not easy to get rid of them, you know. There are some places you can't take them to," Ling'er said pointedly.
Zi Xin understood and said, "I want to go to Zizhiyu today because the ground is slippery, so I can't go."
"It's so eerie and scary there, can you trust me to go alone?" Linger said pitifully.
Zixin was slightly stunned, Ling'er actually used what she just said to threaten herself. But, can she be so cruel as to refuse?
Zizhi Valley is a ravine with lush vegetation, twists and turns, located on the west side of Feisho Cave. The shrubs in the valley block out the sky and the sun, and grow a variety of precious medicinal materials. Among the many medicinal materials, Zizhizhi is the most famous.
"Purple Zhizhi grows on decayed trees and looks like wood. It can prevent aging, prolong life, cure fatigue, and treat hemorrhoids. It is not suitable to be combined with various tonic pills. Anyone who gets Zhizhi grass can eat it properly. Therefore, there is no remaining discipline, so there is no need to obey the law." This is a passage from the medical classics that Ling'er will recite every time he goes to Zizhiyu.
Although Zi Xin didn’t understand what she was reciting, she always nodded in cooperation when she recited it.
"By the way, Ling'er, did you study the leaf yesterday?" Zixin suddenly thought.
“It is indeed a very rare herbal medicine.This medicine is basically not used on weekdays. I looked through all the medical books before I found relevant records about it. ”
“Then it’s of little value. Zi Xin said.
“You can’t say that, because its medicinal properties cannot be replaced by other medicinal materials. So, you still have to help me protect it, maybe I will use it one day. "Ling'er said, putting the important responsibility on the shoulders of her best friend.
Zixin couldn't help but frowned when she heard the words. She knew that Ling'er usually liked to study all kinds of strange things outside of medical books. One day It’s not surprising that this kind of folk remedy can be used.
“Zixin should be careful because the ground is slippery. "Ling'er took Zi Xin's hand and walked forward cautiously.
Zi Xin saw that Ling'er was wearing a long skirt to pick medicine again, so she laughed at her, "It seems that it is your turn today." The skirt was in trouble. "
"No, I'm very careful. "Ling'er said with a smile.
As soon as they entered Zizhiyu, the sky was covered by the bushes, as if it was dusk.
Ling'er opened his eyes wide and admired the surrounding scenery. Plant herbs and enjoy the scent of herbs. “This is truly a paradise for medicinal herbs. "She likes it here so much.
"Be careful, I will wait for you in the cave. "Zixin didn't want to disturb Ling'er, so she went to the cave where she cared about day and night.
"See you later. "Ling'er responded, and then relied on her keen sense of smell and excellent eyesight to find the herbs she needed.
"I gained a lot today. "Ling'er looked at the many precious medicinal materials in the herbal bag and said to herself with satisfaction. She stood up, stretched her limbs, and looked up at Zi Xin, who was waiting for her at a high place.
Yes. The light was too dim, and her eyes were tired. Zixin's eyes were full of tears. What happened to her? Ling'er ignored her precious herbs and ran towards the cave.
Thinking about something for a while. Lost in thought, Zi Xin didn't notice that Ling'er had already rushed to her side.
"Zi Xin, what's wrong with you? Are you crying?" Ling'er sat down next to Zi Xin and took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.
Zi Xin did not answer, but shook her head.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Ling'er took Zi Xin's wrist and checked her pulse. >"I'm fine. Zi Xin shook his head.
Ling'er felt a little relieved after knowing that Zi Xin was fine, and asked, "Is there anything on your mind?"
Pointing to the cliff in the distance, Zi Xin Say slowly, "That's Sunset Rock. ”
On the east side of Guolao Ridge, a dangerous peak of ten thousand feet stands facing the west, reaching into the clouds. Looking up, you can see the ancient pines and clouds, the dangerous cliffs are about to fall, majestic.
< p>Ling'er knew that it was Sunset Rock, and they had to pass there every time they went out to play.Zixin continued to say, "Sunset Rock is also called Sheshen Cliff, and it has a long legend. "
Ling'er had heard of the legend of Sunset Rock before, but never knew what the legend was.
Zixin said, "A long time ago, there was a beautiful girl in Hunyuan City. ,For the sake of my sick mother, I went up the mountain with my sister-in-law to find medicinal herbs. In the mountains, they were in danger, but fortunately they were rescued by a young painter who was building a temple. The girl fell in love with the painter. Finally, with the help of my sister-in-law, the two settled down for life. Unexpectedly, good things come soon, and misfortunes fall from the sky. The son of the magistrate of Hunyuan had heard for a long time that the girl was very beautiful, so he wanted to marry her by force. The girl's mother also disliked poverty and loved wealth, and coveted the money of the magistrate's family. In desperation, the girl ran away from home overnight and went up the mountain to look for the painter. She ran all over Mount Heng, but her lover was nowhere to be seen. At this time, the magistrate's servants came after him. The girl had no choice but to jump from the top of the ten thousand-foot peak. The heroic act of the girl moved the God of the Northern Mountains. The gods then cast a spell and turned the girl into a lark, which flew around the mountain day and night, making endless screams. "
After hearing Zixin tell this touching story, Ling'er's eyes became a little moist.
"Every time I come here, I will think of this legend. Although the girl lost her life, at least she found her love. Zi Xin said quietly, "If I could see him again and ask me to jump off a cliff, I would be willing." "
"Zixin, don't do this. "Ling'er hugged her and comforted her softly, "Fate is destined, and you will definitely be able to renew your relationship. "
"Ling'er, you don't understand. I miss him, but I don't expect him to treat me. I just want to see him again. As long as I know whether he is doing well now, that's enough. . "
Ling'er didn't quite understand Zi Xin's heart, but she must realize this simple wish for Zi Xin. Ling'er said, "Zixin, I will definitely help you." "
Zi Xin wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, held Ling'er's hand, and said, "Maybe you are right, fate is determined by fate. Whether we can meet again is already destined. I'm too pushy. ”
“Even so, we still have to fight for good things. "Ling'er didn't want to see her so depressed.
"If I can go to the Wulin Heroes Association, maybe I can find him. "Zixin said, "Although so many years have passed, I still remember his appearance. If I see him again, I will definitely recognize him. ”
After nine years, she can still remember the other person’s appearance. This is indeed an unforgettable affection. Ling’er has heard her mention that past event many times, but he didn’t dare to dwell on it for fear of making her sad. Q, now in order to better help her find people, Ling'er must understand the situation in detail, so she asked, "How did you meet back then?"
"It was in this cave that we met. "Zixin recalled that day nine years ago.
"It turned out to be here." Ling'er was surprised. She finally understood why Zixin had such deep feelings for this cave.
"I was playing nearby that day, and there was lightning and thunder all of a sudden. I ran to the cave we often visited to escape the heavy rain. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the sky was getting darker and darker, as dark as night. I began to regret going out to play alone. Suddenly, he appeared at the entrance of the cave, which scared me to tears. He stepped forward to signal me to be silent and told me that he would not hurt me. "Zixin said, as if she had returned to many years ago.
"Boom to the ground.There was a sound, and several huge rocks on the top of the cave suddenly collapsed. He picked me up and ran towards the cave. But after running a few steps, he fell to the ground, and a stone broke his left leg. I remember that he apologized to me before he fell into coma, saying that he had caused me trouble. But he didn't feel sorry for me. He was seriously injured in order to save me. "With that said, Zi Xin wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"How is his injury?" Ling'er asked suddenly.
"The rain gradually became lighter, and the sky gradually became brighter. I struggled to remove the stone from his leg, and then I saw clearly that he was covered in blood, but I didn't know where he was injured. I don't have Ling'er's good medical skills, so I can't save him. "Zixin cried sadly.
"Zixin, don't be sad. " Ling'er hugged Zi Xin and tried to share her sadness. Ling'er remembered that one year Zi Xin suddenly wanted to learn trauma care skills from him.
Zi Xin continued, "Later, he woke up. He said that if his leg is broken, it will be broken, and it doesn’t matter if he loses all his martial arts skills. I could see that he felt sad that I had hurt him. I wanted to take him home to recuperate, but he insisted on leaving. I was so dizzy at the time that I didn't even have the strength to stop him. I could only watch him drop the sandalwood sign and then limp away leaning on the tree branch. After I regained my strength, I ran home and asked everyone to help find someone, but I learned that the third uncle had just been killed."
"Zixin, when will you get home?" Ling'er didn't want to miss anything. .
"It's the next day. "Zixin replied sobbing.
