Chapter 412
411
The morning light is Xihe, and all things are shining together.
Su Haoyi used red hair to bring Sima Lantai to simply tie his hair, and then helped him tidy up his clothes. He was full of joy and said with admiration: "You look so beautiful like this, casual and romantic."
"This is the first time I have tied my hair like this," Sima Lantai himself also felt it fresh: "Like a person from the Wei and Jin Dynasties."
"You were always born with a dragon and a phoenix," Su Haoyi said with no hesitation: "I have never seen anyone who looks better than you again."
"Speak nonsense," Sima Lantai raised his hand to scrape her nose: "It's almost done, let's go."
Today they will leave here and return to Xianyuan Mountain.
The bag has been loaded long ago and there is nothing to clean up.
"I'm really leaving, I'm still a little reluctant to leave." Su Haoyi looked at this small cave, a little sad.
"If you want, I can come back with you once a year." Sima Lantai said.
"What's there to go back to?" Su smiled kindly: "It's better to have less people from the deep mountains and forests."
To outsiders, Sima Lantai is a first-class smart person, but Su Haoyi thinks that he is sometimes stupid.
Sima Lantai carried the burden and went down first, and responded to Su Haoyi from below.
Su Haoyi put the white jade hairpin into a sachet, carefully placed it behind a stone, and said piously: "Thank you for your blessing from the gods, this little thing is not respectful."
After saying that, he stood up, looked at the names of the two people on the cave wall, and thought about the great sorrow and joy that had lasted for more than ten or twenty years.
Afraid that Sima Lantai would be anxious to wait below, Su Haoyi climbed down the vine.
When they arrived on the ground, the two looked back at the cave and didn't say anything.
Some things need not be stated, they must be remembered in my heart for the rest of my life.
The method of Sima Lantai coming out is very simple, walk in the direction of the stream.
Because the water flows downward, as long as it follows the direction of the stream, it will definitely reach the foot of the mountain and will not go around in the mountain.
If you have a deviation from the road back to the foot of the mountain, you don’t have to worry, because the direction is better distinguished from the flat area and walk along the foot of the mountain.
Down the mountain faster than going up the mountain. They walked in the mountain for two days and slept on the trees for a night, and then came to the plain area at the foot of the mountain.
Although there are plants and trees, they are not the kind of towering ancient trees.
Su Haoyi was so tired that she sat on a tree stump, wiping sweat while saying, "It would be great if the lost donkey could come back by itself, and we could ride the donkey to travel."
It was hot at the end of July, and they had walked many more roads.
"Slow down and drink water again and again," Sima Lantai was sweating all over. They were still a little weak: "I hope I can meet someone or find someone nearby."
"There are most likely no one in this place," Su Haoyi said while fanning the air with her sleeve: "Unless there are hunters entering the mountains."
"Then let's go further," Sima Lantai said: "It will be dark in more than an hour. I see that there are many bees nearby, and maybe I can meet beekeepers."
If there were people living at the foot of this mountain, it would be a beekeeper.
They usually live in seclusion, keep bees and make honey, just like living in seclusion.
The two of them took a short rest, drank some water and continued on their way.
After about half an hour left, Su Haoyi saw a stream of smoke floating outside the forest, and couldn't help but feel ecstatic and said, "Senior brother, look, it seems that there is someone over there!"
Turning around the woods in front of me, there was indeed a small thatched hut on the hillside.
A small courtyard surrounded by a wooden fence, with vegetables and a few small fruit trees.
What’s very eye-catching is that there is a row of beehives in the yard, and hundreds of bees are crawling in and out.
"Senior brother, you guessed it's really accurate. I just don't know if the owner of this family is hospitable," Su said kindly: "No matter what, I have to make a hot meal today."
The two walked out of the yard and saw that no one came out. They thought the owner was cooking dinner in the house.
"Can the master be at home? Those passing by are asking for a bowl of water to drink." Su Haoyi shouted outside the door without hesitation.
After a while, a person came out of the room.
Judging from his gait, he should be an old man. He was wearing a beekeeper's gauze hat on his head, and he couldn't see his face.
Before the other party could speak, Su Haoye quickly said politely: "This father-in-law has disturbed me. We came out of the deep mountains and were really tired and exhausted. I wonder if we might take a break from you and ask for food?"
"You two young young people really don't know the depth. How can you go to the deep mountains?" said the old man, and walked closer to open the door: "If you don't mind the rags at my house, come in. I happen to be cooking. There is nothing good to eat, only brown rice porridge and pickles."
"Thank you!" Su thanked him kindly: "I've caused you trouble."
The two of them entered the house and sat down. The old man used a thick porcelain bowl to make a bowl of royal jelly for each of them.
"This is my own brew, please try it!" The old man said, putting down the bowl: "I'll go and see if the porridge in the pot is ready."
"Can I help me?" Su asked kindly: "How can you keep the elderly alone busy?"
"No need, either. First of all, I am used to doing something, so I don't feel tired. Secondly, you are guests, how can you work for guests!" The old man said and went to the outside room.
Su Haoyi took a sip of royal jelly, which was fragrant and sweet, quenched thirst and hunger.
Although this hut is simple, it is full of fireworks and is intimate.
A square table with missing legs, the varnish is peeled off. A plate of pickles, a plate of bacon, a plate of boiled vegetables in water, and a dried fish.
"Two guys use it slowly," the old man said after he brought these things to the table: "The old man has lost his companion."
"You can have dinner with us!" Sima Lantai said, "We are so sorry for disturbing us."
"I have to go and see if the bees are back," the old man said with a smile: "There is still a lot of food in the pot, so you must eat enough!"
"This father-in-law is such a kind-hearted person," Su sighed kindly: "It's a pity that we are short of money now and there is nothing to repay them."
"Don't worry, I will give him a big gift." Sima Lantai said: "Don't forget that my husband is a skilled person."
"What is it?" Su Haoyi was curious: "Are you so sure?"
"Eat first," Sima Lantai pushed the dishes to Su Haoyi: "I've been shouting that I'm hungry for a long time."
Su Haoyi was too curious and asked, "What disease did the father-in-law suffer from?"
"Yes." Sima Lantai responded and started drinking porridge.
"You didn't take his pulse," Su Haoyi felt strange: "How can you determine that he is sick?"
"You can know even if you haven't taken the pulse." Sima Lantai said: "You might as well guess what disease he has."
