"Where's the jade pendant?" Ah Zhi suddenly asked.
She blinked: "Put it in a safe and private place."
In the wilderness, how could she know whether the person she was carrying was a dog or a wolf? Naturally, she had to keep something that could control the other person.
Ah Zhi turned his head and looked at her, his eyes were deep, as if he was exploring something, but he quickly looked away and nodded lightly: "I know, I will work hard to chop wood."
Regardless of whether this promise was effective or not, at least the man did not hold back when it came to rushing.
He followed her side all the time, never missing a step.
Compared with the previous two days, my physical fitness seemed to have been comprehensively improved.
The breath is calm, as if very relaxed.
In the end, she couldn't bear it anymore, and gasped, "Stop... take a break, drink some water, and eat some dry food."
It was almost noon, and they found a relatively flat place to sit down. Duan Qingqiu had time to take a good look around.
A Niu is right, this mountain can be called a barren mountain.
Especially now it is still winter. Looking around, there is not even a speck of green to be seen.
Tangled stones and dry branches.
Firewood should be considered the biggest treasure in this mountain.
She began to worry about whether Chaotian Pepper existed or not.
This variety of pepper is quite cold-resistant. As long as the rhizome is alive, the fruit should not shrink.
Duan Qingqiu swallowed the pancake in two mouthfuls, took out the route map and studied it carefully for a moment, raised his hand and pointed to the left, stood up and said: "Keep walking."
He took two steps, but heard no sound from behind.
Turning his head suspiciously, he saw Ah Zhi looking around, and after meeting her eyes, his eyes changed.
"Why are you dazed? Don't tell me you can't walk."
Duan Qingqiu's eyes widened, he held his wrist and twisted it, successfully stopping the other party's hesitation.
So the two of them kept their heads down and walked quickly for a while.
The sun was turning westward, and the light in the forest was getting darker and darker, but they had not yet reached their destination.
Duan Qingqiu finally felt something was wrong. She compared it with the map and said to herself: "That's wrong, where is the creek? Why didn't I find it? It couldn't be that it's so dry that you can't even see it..."
Ah Zhi finally couldn't help it, and quietly interjected: "Do you really understand the road map?"
"Why don't you understand?" She looked unconvinced. "Isn't it just a matter of turning left, right, then right, then left? I have clearly remembered the features along the road in my mind. I will never know when to turn. wrong!"
Azhi sighed, pointed at Wujin in the distance and said, "If I'm not mistaken, that's the west. Starting from the third bend, you should go south, and you've been walking east, so... you Don’t you know how to identify the direction at all?”
Duan Qingqiu wanted to refute, but when he thought of the experience in modern times where he went to study abroad and took the bus and subway for a day, only to get further and further away, he finally lowered his head sadly and reluctantly admitted: "No. Wrong, I don’t know the way, but... but no one is perfect, everyone is not good at things."
For example, she can remember thousands of herbs and various combinations between them, but she can never remember what southeast, northwest, and southeast are.
"Ah……"
A low chuckle escaped, as if the fuse of a firecracker was lit.
The woman immediately glared at her: "Why are you laughing!"
Ah Zhi didn't know why he was laughing.
The indifference engraved in his bones and the corners of his lips that were extremely stiff every time he raised them made him feel that he should be a cold-tempered person.
He would not hate or laugh at a woman with a round figure. In fact, even if the woman looked like a fairy, it would not affect his unnecessary emotions.
He has always been like a bystander, dormant, waiting to leave at any time.
But as I looked at it, there was a sense of fun in my heart that I had never felt before.
The more we get along with this country girl, the more I feel that she is full of contradictions and disharmony.
But...it's really interesting.
Especially at this moment, she tilted her face up slightly. Due to her reduced facial features, the originally crowded facial features spread out, initially revealing her delicate outline.
The sallowness faded away, and the skin became whiter and more tender. When the cold wind blew, the cheeks and nose turned bright red, and the wide-open eyes were round and black, just like the cat I had hugged in my memory.
The cat in memory?
Did he... actually have a cat?
Was it once or is it still alive...
Ah Zhi habitually kept his face quiet and was lost in thought, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't think of anything more.
"Hey, if you have the ability, come here. Don't just sit there and talk about it."
He suppressed the twists and turns in his heart and did not accept the leather that was handed to him. He just said: "Okay, follow closely."
Facing the afterglow of the setting sun, they hit the road again.
At first, Duan Qingqiu was still skeptical. Gradually, she realized that this guy really didn't seem to be walking around blindly.
The gravel underfoot is decreasing, the road has become smoother, and feels soft and moist when stepped on. The trees around us are becoming thicker and thicker, and you can still see a few clusters of green from time to time.
This is an environment where vegetation grows and herbs grow!
Duan Qingqiu was excited, and his fatigue suddenly disappeared. He crossed the man with strong steps, one step deep and one shallow, and ran forward staggeringly.
Ah Zhi looked at the surrounding terrain and instinctively reminded him: "The soil here is loose and the tide is constant all year round. There may be——"
thump.
"what!"
After a short scream, he sighed softly and said the unfinished words: "Pot."
"hiss……"
Duan Qingqiu stared at his ankle. It was already fat and white, but now it was swollen like a big white steamed bun, and he could hardly even wear shoes.
She slumped her shoulders and huffed.
I did bring medicine, but I only had medicine powder for treating common snake venom and stopping bleeding. After all, the chance of twisting my foot was so small that no one could predict it.
It’s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, and a great pharmacist is helpless in this barren mountain and old forest.
"If you don't mind, maybe... I can help."
Under a shadow hood, Ah Zhi squatted in front of him.
She raised her head in surprise: "How can I help?"
"Just..." He stretched out his hand and moved his long fingers with distinct joints. His tone was hesitant, but his eyes were very firm, "I'll pull it back for you."
"..."
“I don’t mind if I mind, but do you have the qualifications to practice Chinese medicine and bone setter—ah!”
Duan Qingqiu only heard a soft cracking sound from his bones, and then the pain quickly subsided, leaving only the swelling.
"Huh? You have two brushes!" She moved her ankles, her face full of surprise, "Duan Azhi, everyone is really good at something. I'm starting to discover your strengths."
Ah Zhi couldn't help but curled up his lips. Suddenly remembering what he said just now, he pretended to ask casually: "What qualifications did you just talk about?"
He wanted to find out more about the professions he might have been engaged in in the past, so as to reveal his identity.
It was impossible for Duan Qingqiu to know him in the past. It must have been someone from Yaxing who said something.
