It was very comfortable to step on the warm and slightly hot wheat. He couldn't help but raise his head and think, This is too satisfying!
Early the next morning, I was dragged up by Chushan. He frowned and told me that the wound on his father's leg had festered.
I quickly let him out, changed my clothes, and went up the mountain with him.
It was still very cold in the mountains in the early morning. Although it was summer, the morning breeze still penetrated the bones.
" I didn't know that a wolf's scratch could cause such a huge reaction." Chushan tugged at the tree branch in front of him." I used to see that my father was fine even when he was bitten by a wolf.”
"You're already so old. Aren't you going to let your father grow old?”I looked at the sky worriedly. If I couldn't find the right herbs today, my wound would probably worsen.
He turned to look at me and said seriously,"I never thought that my father was old. Every time I saw him bring back wild animals, it was just like when I was young, lying on the bed and watching him tease me with wild rabbits. It was exactly the same.”
I smiled. In the eyes of a child, parents are always the strongest backing and will never grow old. Until one day, when he really lost them, he suddenly felt that he had been doing the wrong thing all along. There were too many things that he should have done and too many things that he should have said.
" The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop…The son wants to be raised but the parents don't wait…" I sighed and looked up to see the leaves rustling in the wind.
"What?" Chushan obviously didn't understand what he meant.
"Let's go. It's not easy to find the place where the herbs grow. We might not even be able to find them today.”I pushed him forward.
The summer sun rose very quickly. In a short while, the entire forest turned from foggy and humid to bright and clear air. In the blink of an eye, it was noon.
Suddenly, I saw the herb I wanted growing on a steep mountain wall.
" Chushan, Chushan, look, that's it…" I pointed at the cliff. If I leave in the future, Chushan can collect herbs and sell them for money. The whole family won't have to rely on the firewood that Chushan sells to earn money. The firewood that Chushan had worked so hard to chop could not even compare to a good herb in the mountains.
"What's that?" Chushan asked me.
I stepped on a large rock. There was probably only one of them in this mountain. We're so lucky to be able to see it in such a short time. I thought we'd have to look for a long time.”
" Hey, be careful." Chushan stood at the side and did not dare to come over." Look, we almost went out. Don't fall!"”
"Can't you just stop jinxing me? Let me tell you, if I don't go and get this medicine, your father's entire leg might be crippled! Do you think everyone is afraid of heights like you? Go, stand inside. I won't pull you if you fall!”He struggled to grab onto a piece of rock and shook it. It should be very sturdy, so he climbed up.
Chushan was good everywhere except for one thing: climb higher. There was a time when the osmanthus flowers bloomed. I wanted to eat osmanthus flowers, so I wanted Chushan to climb up and pick a bunch for me. In the end, that coward refused to go up no matter what. I was the one who ignored my image and went up the tree. Because of this, Grandma laughed at me for a month and kept saying,"Looking at Miss Xia's refined appearance, I really can't imagine that she would climb a tree just to stutter!”
Angelica's small branch stood at the corner of the cliff, bathing in the sunlight. It looked beautiful!
"Miss Xia, be careful!" Chushan suddenly called out.
I was shocked. My legs trembled and I broke out in a cold sweat. I immediately turned around and scolded him,"Don't make a sound suddenly! From now on, you're not allowed to speak!"
I stretched my hand forward, but I still couldn't reach it. He could only take two more steps forward, and his feet shook. He grabbed Angelica and pulled her up by the roots."Chushan, I've caught him!”
In his joy, he was about to run back when he suddenly slipped and fell on the rocks. His hip bone hurt. He was about to get up when he staggered and his feet were suspended in the air.
"Ah!" My entire body felt a terrifying sense of weightlessness.
"Miss Xia!" I looked up and saw Chushan's figure getting further and further away.
It's over…I'm done for again!
I haven't had the chance to experience the snowflakes blooming yet! He hadn't even trembled! Before the flowers and under the moon! He hadn't felt the pain of separation yet! I don't want to die!
Suddenly, his vision turned black. His body was being held up by someone, but he could not stop himself from falling.
'My heart and lungs are filled with the fragrance of the snow lotus…Shui Xuanyue…My heart shook. Could it be…Shui Xuanyue?'
The person beside me hugged me and knelt on the ground. I saw that familiar side profile slowly turning towards me.
"Ji 'er!" Shui Xuanyue clearly didn't expect that I would be the one falling down. She didn't stand up and continued to kneel.
I smiled awkwardly and retracted my hand from his neck."It's me…"
His eyes immediately revealed a look of ecstasy as he hugged me and refused to let go."You didn't die! Are you still alive?"
I frowned and pushed him away.”
He hesitated for a moment before standing up and placing me on the ground."Why didn't you die?"
She gave him a sidelong glance and said fiercely,"Why? Aren't you happy to be alive?"”I deliberately ignored the joy in his eyes and pretended to look at the sky.
" No, Ji 'er..." He seemed to be unable to believe what was happening in front of him. He actually reached out and tugged at the corner of my shirt." Murong Xi sent someone to tell me that you... said that you..."
"Are you saying that I'm dead?" Hearing Murong Xi's name, his heart sank,'I did die once, but I came back to life! The one who died was Murong Xi's Xia Tian, and the one who is alive now is my Xia Tian!”
He didn't seem to understand what I meant. He frowned slightly and didn't say anything. However, I saw the Charming Blade and Charming Sword at the side. My mood immediately brightened up as I ran over to them."Scarface, why are you all here? Why are you here?"
Scarface seemed to be very happy to see me. He was so excited that he was shaking like a crescent moon."We have come with the young sect master to the Mount Yinghua Sect's grandmaster for the selection of a new lord.”
I looked at the dozen or so people behind me. Some of them looked familiar, while others I had never seen before. They were probably gathered here for this overlord selection.
"Ji 'er, how have you been living these days?”Shui Xuanyue looked at my ordinary farmer attire and was puzzled. The men's clothes that appeared in front of him back then were only for the young masters of the official family.
I grinned." You don't know me, right? I've been living like this for the past six months! Although I miss the days when I was with you at the Ice Mystic Sect and didn't have to worry about food and clothing, I still feel comfortable now!”
"Miss Xia!" Chushan's voice could be heard from the side of the mountain, and Shui Xuanyue frowned. I looked at him and teased,"Why didn't I see you frown before?"”
He glanced at me indifferently and waited for Chushan to come down from the mountain. Scarface pulled me and asked me all sorts of questions. I happily chatted with him. By the time Chushan reached me, panting heavily, I had already grabbed Scarface's steamed bun and was eating it.
" Miss Xia..." Chushan squatted beside her tiredly." Are you alright?”
I shrugged and pouted at Shui Xuanyue.""He saved her."
Chushan immediately stood up and bowed to Shui Xuanyue.""Many thanks to Young Master for saving my life. Chushan is extremely grateful.”
Shui Xuanyue turned away and ignored him. Chushan stood awkwardly at the side with his hands raised. "This is Chushan. He was the one who saved me when I was almost eaten by wolves."”Shui Xuanyue's expression softened slightly. I pointed at Shui Xuanyue and said," This is…" I was thinking about how to explain his identity. Seeing that his face was slowly darkening, I could only hurriedly say," Master!”
After saying that, I felt that everyone's gaze on me had changed…
" Uh…I mean…" I pursed my lips and smiled at Shui Xuanyue." I once served Shui Xuanyue for quite a while…"
He noticed that Chushan's mouth was twitching, and he immediately added,""It's a servant girl!"
"Why is Master so awkward…" he muttered to himself.
"What's there to be awkward about!" I glared at him.
He pretended not to see it and looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle like me.
"This is bad!" I looked at my body and said,"The herbs I picked for your father are gone!" What should we do!"
"What's wrong?" Shui Xuanyue was a kind-hearted person, so she immediately asked when she heard that someone needed medicine. It was only then that I remembered that Shui Xuanyue and the others had brought along some medicine!
I jumped off the rock and invited Shui Xuanyue,""Why don't you come to our house and take a look? Ah?"
"Just stay here?" Shui Xuanyue clearly didn't expect that I would be able to settle down here. There were dried bamboo shoots in the courtyard, and the house was extremely small. How could it compare to the Ring Moon Pavilion back then?
Chushan seemed very unhappy. These days were much better than before I came.
He brought Shui Xuanyue in and poured him some tea,""Did you bring Golden Creation?"
He immediately became alert.”
I laughed." You're too tired. How can we rural people have those problems!" His father had been scratched by a wolf yesterday, and the wound was festering badly.”
He took out the Golden Creation medicine and gave it to me. I immediately gave it to Chushan and asked him to ask for it from his father.
" Ji 'er…" Shui Xuanyue looked around and said," Come with me?"”
I was extremely excited. In the modern world, I had always hoped that a man could tell me, Come with me." If that happens, I will definitely run away with him regardless of everything! Unfortunately, he never had one…
"I'm not leaving…" I poured myself a cup of tea and spun it in my hand.
He seemed to have expected my answer."I knew you wouldn't have left. But…" His turn aroused my interest. Seeing me staring at him, his handsome face seemed to be red." Don't you want to know why everyone wanted the Purple Melting Jade in the first place? Don't you want to know why the Crown Prince was killed after obtaining the Purple Melting Jade?”
