Chapter 14 Chapter Twelfth: The Island of Fairy Mountains (Part 1)

As the sky gradually darkened, the three of them rested on the mountainside for the night. Chen Jingchou went to the stream to find some frogs, lit a fire and roasted them, and they all ate some.On the second day, we continued our journey and slowly climbed towards a dangerous peak. We were careful all the way, and when we reached the middle of the mountain, it was almost dusk.Chen Jingchou led the way, Yu Xiaoxue suddenly said: "Brother Chen! It's bad! Sister Tuoba passed out!" Chen Jingchou was startled, and with a sound of ah, he quickly turned around, ran over and stretched out his hands to support him, only to see Tuoba Yu'er frowning.Chen Jingchou reached out his back to her forehead and said, "It's so hot!" He gently shook Tuoba Yu'er with his hand, and said, "Yu'er, Yu'er! Wake up first!" Tuoba Yuer slowly Opening his eyes, he was dazed again and passed out.Chen Jingchou looked around and saw a small cave beside the mountain road in front of him, he hurriedly said: "Xiaoxue, let's send Sister Yu'er to the cave to rest first, and then deal with it." Carrying Tuoba Yu'er on his back, Run up the hill.In a short while to the cave.Yu Xiaoxue found some dead branches and leaves and spread them on the ground.Chen Jingchou put Tuoba Yu'er down carefully, took off his coat, and covered her up.Yu Xiaoxue took out the handkerchief, moistened it with water, folded it, and gently applied it on Tuoba Yuer's forehead.Go back and forth like this several times, and the water bag will be empty after a while.Chen Jingchou hurried to the stream on the side of the mountain, filled the water, and rushed back to the cave.After being so busy for more than two hours, Tuoba Yu'er just fell asleep peacefully.Chen Jingchou breathed a sigh of relief.Yu Xiaoxue also felt sleepy and fell asleep next to Tuoba Yu'er.

In the middle of the night, Yu Xiaoxue woke up, feeling a little cold, stretched out her hands to straighten Tuoba Yuer's clothes, and was about to go back to sleep.Suddenly, a sad flute sound came into the cave with the wind.Yu Xiaoxue stood up gently and walked out of the cave.At this time, it is late autumn, the sky is full of stars, the earth is misty, and it is faintly visible. Following the sound of the flute, I saw a person sitting on a protruding rock on the edge of a cliff in the distance. The stars are playing with their heads bowed, and the sound of the flute is soft and melodious, full of desolation.After hearing this, Yu Xiaoxue felt a sense of sadness in her heart.The cold wind blew, and I couldn't help sneezing.

The sound of the flute suddenly stopped, Chen Jingchou turned around and said, "Xiaoxue, why are you here?" Yu Xiaoxue stepped forward and asked, "Brother Chen, it's so late and the weather is so cold, why don't you go to sleep?" Chen Jingchou looked up at the hazy silhouette of the high mountain in the distance, feeling depressed, and said for a while, "I was thinking about Master and Sister Yu'er, but I don't know how his master and the old man are doing now?...Can Sister Yu'er be okay?" Make it through..." Yu Xiaoxue took a few steps closer and said, "Brother Chen, don't worry, the teacher and sister Yu'er will be fine!"

Chen Jingchou said: "I hope so... It's just that half a year has passed, and there is still no clue about saving Master. Sister Yu'er was seriously injured..." After a while, he turned his head and said, "Xiaoxue, These days, thanks to you taking care of Yu'er non-stop, she can get through the difficulties, thank you so much! ——I will take care of Yu'er tonight, you should go back to sleep, it won't be good if you catch a cold later." Yu Xiaoxue said: "Brother Chen, isn't he also very tired these days?" Chen Jingchou said: "I'm fine, don't be exhausted! The night is cool, go back!"

Yu Xiaoxue hesitated for a while, and said: "Then, I'll go back first, brother Chen please go to bed early!" Chen Jingchou nodded.Yu Xiaoxue went back to the cave and fell asleep. The next day, when Tuoba Yuer's injury stabilized, the three of them continued on their way.Chen Jingchou didn't dare to covet the distance, he set off at noon and stopped by a small stream in the valley at sunset.Chen Jingchou saw a wooden bridge over the stream, so he spread branches on the ground beside the bridge, settled Tuoba Yu'er down, and prepared to spend the night here.I went to the stream to find some small fish and roasted them for everyone to satisfy their hunger.They rested that night.

Chen Jingchou lay in the woods by the stream until midnight before he closed his eyes in a daze.Just about to fall asleep, suddenly heard a faint sobbing sound from afar.Chen Jingchou stood up, found out the direction, and walked forward for more than ten feet, and came to the side of the stream.I saw the stars in the sky appear slightly, and the cold moon was like a hook, slanting in the clear stream.By the faint moonlight, I saw a person lying on the grass beside the stream, crying softly.Chen Jingchou stepped forward to take a look, he couldn't help being surprised, and said, "Sister Yu'er...why are you here?"

Tuoba Yu'er covered her face with her hands and cried, "Ah Qiu, I...I can't see anything..." Chen Jingchou walked over and helped her up.Tuoba Yu'er shook her hand and said, "Go away, I... I don't want your help! Go away, I don't want you to see me like this..." Struggling to get up, her feet slipped, and she fell again On the ground, Wuwu burst into tears.Chen Jingchou wanted to come forward to help several times, but Tuoba Yu'er pushed him away. Chen Jingchou sighed, turned around slowly and walked away a few steps, looked up at the waning moon on the top of the mountain, the lone geese honked, the cold wind blew, two tears flowed from his eyes, and said softly: "Yu'er...you calm down first Come down and listen to me."

Tuoba Yu'er said: "What else can I say, I... I am already a useless person, what should I do in the future?" Chen Jingchou choked up and said, "Sister Yu'er, please believe me! No matter what you become, it doesn't matter if it was yesterday or today. In short, as long as you are Sister Yu'er, I will always Won't leave you alone." Tuoba Yu'er wiped the teardrops from the corner of her eyes, and after a long time, Fang said: "A Qiu, you, is everything you said true?" Chen Jingchou said: "Sister Yu'er... no matter how beautiful your face is, it will fade with time... As long as your upright and beautiful heart is still there, that's enough!"

Tuoba Yu'er stopped crying, faced the stream, sat quietly on the grass by the stream, and said after a long time: "Ah Qiu, you...you won't lie to me?" Chen Jingchou said: "How could I lie to you? Please believe me, no matter what happens in the future, I will always take care of you and not let anyone bully you..." Tuoba Yu'er seemed to believe it or not. Chen Jingchou walked up to her, sat down side by side, and said, "Sister Yu'er, if you don't believe me, we'll give you a high five! If I go back on my word in the future, I'll be a fool forever."

Tuoba Yu'er chuckled, and said: "Okay, then we'll make a deal!" Turning around slowly, he raised his right hand.Chen Jingchou also raised his hand and clapped her palm three times.Tuoba Yu'er raised her chin, raised her head to the sky, and said, "Ah Qiu... what does Xianshan Island look like at night, I can't see anything now, can you tell me?" Chen Jingchou felt sore in his heart , Suppressing the sadness, described it in detail.Tuoba Yu'er held her chin, she was fascinated by what she heard, and said: "You said the creek under the moon is beautiful, it's right in front of me, I think... I want to see it!" Chen Jingchou hurriedly helped her up, slowly Take a few steps forward slowly.Tuoba Yu'er heard the sound of water, knelt on the ground, couldn't help stretching out her hands, gently soaked in the cool stream, and said happily: "It's so cool and beautiful! There must be a lot of small fish in this stream, right?"

Chen Jingchou's eyes were filled with tears, he forced himself to hold back his sobs, and said with a smile, "Yes, the stream in the mountain is very clear, and the fish like to swim here... Sister Yu'er also It's beautiful..." Tuoba Yu'er turned her head and said, "Ah Qiu, from now on, you will be my eyes. No matter what you see, just tell me, as if I saw it myself!" Chen Jingchou turned his head, wiped his tears with his sleeves, and promised: "Okay, I will be the eyes of sister Yu'er from now on!" After a while, he persuaded: "Your injury is not well yet, go back and rest quickly ! When your injury is healed, I will take you all over the country... Watch, see the beauty of the land of China." Tuoba Yu'er smiled and said: "A Qiu, you must not lie!" Stretching out his arms, let Chen Jingchou went back to rest. On the second day, everyone continued on their way, but Tuoba Yuer was blind and the journey was even more difficult.In the next few days, several mountain peaks were climbed in succession.Along the way, Tuoba Yu'er gradually started laughing.In the evening of that day, they walked to the side of a dangerous peak, and the three of them walked close to the mountain wall, with a deep valley beside them.After a while, it was dark.Chen Jingchou cleaned up the ground, covered it with clothes, and let Tuoba Yu'er lie down.Go find some birds and beasts to satisfy everyone's hunger.Just now when she came back, she suddenly heard Yu Xiaoxue say: "Sister Tuoba! What's wrong with you?" When Chen Jingchou hurried over to look, Tuoba Yu'er's forehead was covered with cold sweat.Hastily asked Yu Xiaoxue to cover her forehead with a wet handkerchief, and took off her long gown to cover her.They didn't dare to leave half a step, they kept guard until midnight, checking from time to time.But Tuoba Yu'er's injury didn't get any better, on the contrary, it became more serious, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.Chen Jingchou paced back and forth anxiously, Yu Xiaoxue said: "Brother Chen, what should I do, Sister Tuoba's body is getting hotter and hotter!" Chen Jingchou said: "It's all my fault. I have been on the road for the past few days, and I didn't let Yu'er have a good rest... What should I do... What should I do?" He kept walking, and suddenly said: "By the way, I was in the valley on the way when I came here. Over there, I have seen many herbs! You stay here and I will go down the mountain to collect herbs!" Yu Xiaoxue agreed.Chen Jingchou hurriedly took out the things in his pockets, and rushed down the mountain under the hazy moonlight. More than two hours later, Chen Jingchou just returned to the mountain, took out from his bosom seven herbs such as Spatholobus Spatholobus, Bitterwood, Yexiahong, Baiyaogen, and Polygonum cuspidatum. He hurriedly sorted out all kinds of herbs, took out the Shennong tripod, put some of each according to the dosage, poured half a bag of spring water, and lit a fire under the tripod.After a meal, the decoction has been cooked.Yu Xiaoxue took out a small earthen pot, poured the decoction into the pot, waited for it to cool down, then helped Tuoba Yuer to feed her to drink carefully.The two waited quietly, although they were extremely tired, they did not dare to close their eyes for a while.It was the fourth watch time at this time, and the surrounding area was quiet. Flocks of birds perched on the treetops, and the wind moved the treetops, and the sky was filled with stars from time to time. After guarding for nearly an hour, when Chen Jingchou went to look again, Tuoba Yu'er's forehead was still hot, and there was no slight improvement, so he hurriedly fed her the remaining half can of decoction.After a while, he turned around to look again.Seeing that Tuoba Yu'er's face was burning red, he stretched out his hand to push it, but he didn't know that Tuoba Yu'er had completely lost consciousness, and he couldn't even hum.Stretching out his hand to feel the pulse, he only felt that the pulse was slight, with ten pulses and one slow, intermittent.After a while, the breathing gradually weakened, and the scene of the next life appeared.Yu Xiaoxue wept and said, "Sister Tuoba, you must make it through..." Chen Jingchou paced back and forth anxiously, suddenly grabbed the earthen jar, and threw it on the ground with all his might, it shattered into thousands of pieces with a bang , said: "Why? Why are the ancient artifacts useless! God... what should I do... what should I do..." He fell down in front of Tuoba Yu'er, crying bitterly. Yu Xiaoxue took a few steps back, walked to Shennong Cauldron, and cried, "Brother Chen..." Chen Jingchou turned his head abruptly, Yu Xiaoxue held a dagger in his right hand, pointed it at his left arm, and with a click, it was cut. The next piece of blood dripping meat will come.Chen Jingchou exclaimed in surprise: "Xiaoxue...you...what are you doing?" Yu Xiaoxue threw down the dagger, covered the wound with her right hand, knelt on the ground, endured the pain, and said in tears: "I, I have listened to congratulations before. The old man said that there was a man whose mother was terminally ill...he cut off the flesh of his arm and made medicine...the mother was cured..." Chen Jingchou hurried over, tore off the front of his clothes, bandaged her, and said: "Silly Child, this is just a legendary story! Why are you doing this..." Yu Xiaoxue cried: "Brother Chen, Sister Tuoba is dying, you let me try this method!" Chen Jingchou felt sad, tears flowed down again unknowingly, and said: "Xiaoxue ...Just tell me, I'll just cut off the flesh of my own arm... You are a girl, why do you hurt yourself so much!" Yu Xiaoxue cried: "But... I like Sister Tuoba so much, I really like her. I can't bear to let her go away from us!" Chen Jingchou comforted: "Well, that's good... let's try it! Maybe your sincerity can move the heavens and make sister Yu'er get better..." Tears put the herbs and flesh into the Shennong cauldron , Regenerated fire.A moment later, multicolored clouds and mist rose slowly from the tripod, creating a rich fragrance.After a while, the light shone like stars.Yu Xiaoxue wondered: "How...how did this happen?" Chen Jingchou didn't understand, so he raised his head, prayed secretly, then turned his head and said: "Xiaoxue... your sincerity must have touched the heavens! You made it through this time Medicine, it will definitely work, it will work..." After a meal, the smoke and light gradually dissipated.Chen Jingchou walked to the side of the cauldron, and when he lowered his head to look into the cauldron, there was a blood-red elixir, he took it out hastily, and gave it to Tuoba Yuer with water.After working for a long time, it was already twilight.Both of them were sweating profusely from exhaustion, sitting quietly by the side and waiting.The morning breeze swayed the treetops, dripping a little autumn dew.Strange to say, after Tuoba Yu'er took the elixir, just half an hour later, the fiery redness on her face gradually dissipated, and her breathing began to stabilize.Chen Jingchou and Yu Xiaoxue were very happy.After guarding for another hour, Tuoba Yu'er moved her lips a few times, and said softly, "Achou... Xiaoxue... are you there? I, I'm so thirsty..." Chen Jingchou was overjoyed when he heard this, He shook Yu Xiaoxue's hands.He agreed repeatedly, and poured some spring water for her to drink.Tuoba Yu'er rested for a while, and said: "Ah Qiu, my head is so heavy, I don't know how long I have slept this time..." Chen Jingchou said: "Sister Yu'er, please sleep a little longer, it is only dawn now !" Tuoba Yu'er said: "Oh, it's already dawn, should we go?" Chen Jingchou said: "Not busy, let's rest here for a few days, let you recuperate well!" Tuoba Yu The son said: "Thank you, you should also have a good rest." Yu Xiaoxue was injured again after a busy night. She couldn't hold on anymore and fell asleep beside the mountain wall.Chen Jingchou took care of Tuoba Yuer alone.In the next few days, the two took turns to guard, and waited for Tuoba Yu'er to recover a bit before slowly going on the road. A few days later, several people boarded another dangerous peak.Looking down, I saw that the maple leaves all over the mountain were as red as fire.Turning around the top of the mountain, a beautiful piano sound suddenly came from ahead.Chen Jingchou listened intently, the sound of the piano was gentle and mediocre, simple and far-reaching, as if it had an air of transcendence.A few people followed the road and continued to move forward. After walking a few steps, they walked out of the woods and turned around a boulder.There was a sudden light in front of his eyes, and he saw a stone table and several stone tables under a towering ancient tree.The two are sitting at the table.One person seemed to be only in his thirties, he was born plump and radiant, with an extraordinary look, but his temples were slightly white, and he was playing the piano with his eyes closed.The other is an old man with a childlike face and a hefty hair. He is also a pine-breathed crane bone, with a red face and a hale and hearty spirit. He is facing the chess game on the stone table in front of him, contemplating intently. The three walked aside.Chen Jingchou stepped forward to salute, and asked, "Seniors, are you immortals from Xianshan Island?" The old man who was staring at the chess game quickly shook his hand and said, "Don't talk... the old man is thinking about how to solve this move, I have something to wait for you." I'll talk after playing chess..." Without looking back, let alone looking at Chen Jingchou and others, he lowered his head and meditated again.Chen Jingchou said: "Excuse me, old man, do you know where the immortals of Xianshan Island live?" The old man seemed to be in a trance, and he didn't know anything about the things around him, or he didn't want to take care of them at all.The young man also just played the piano without moving his eyelids. Chen Jingchou had no choice but to come back and said: "Xiaoxue, help sister Yu'er to rest under the tree in front for a while, and I'll wait for them to finish playing chess." Yu Xiaoxue agreed to go.Chen Jingchou stood far away from the chess game, waiting quietly.The wind moved the branches, and the dead leaves fell into the forest. I didn't realize that the sun was setting and the sky was already dark.This time, he waited until the moon was in the middle of the sky, but he still hadn't figured out that move.The cold wind pierced through the bones, and Chen Jingchou couldn't help shivering.Yu Xiaoxue came over and said: "Brother Chen, you go back to rest first, let me wait for you." Chen Jingchou said: "It's okay, I can hold on—is Sister Yu'er feeling better?" Yu Xiaoxue nodded, and said: "Sister Tuoba has slept peacefully." Chen Jingchou said: "You have been tired for a day, go back to sleep." Yu Xiaoxue said: "Brother Chen, don't let yourself be too sleepy." If you are tired, you should also pay attention to rest." Chen Jingchou agreed.Yu Xiaoxue turned around and went back. The dawn breeze is blowing, the waning moon is hazy, and the autumn dew is shining, and before you know it, it is early morning.After a while, the red sun rose in the east and cast golden rays of light.Chen Jingchou just felt tired and overwhelmed, so he forced himself to wait by the side.Yu Xiaoxue found some food, supported Tuoba Yu'er, and came under the ancient tree together, and the three of them shared the food.Chen Jingchou asked Yu Xiaoxue to help Tuoba Yu'er go back to rest.Tuoba Yu'er said: "Ah Qiu, I... I am also your companion, I will also be here, waiting with you." Chen Jingqiu couldn't help it, so he had to let her stand aside.After a long time, the sound of the piano suddenly stopped, the young man slowly opened his eyes and asked: "You have been thinking about this chess move for three days and three nights, have you thought about it?" The old man stroked his white beard and said: "Wait a minute , wait a minute! This old man will soon come up with a way to defeat your move..." After speaking, he began to meditate again.There was silence on the top of the mountain, and the autumn wind swept across the treetops, scattering maple leaves, and the ground was red.The afterglow of the setting sun slanted on the top of the mountain, and the evening wind blew, and I waited another day without realizing it.Chen Jingchou said: "Xiaoxue, help sister Yuer to rest first." Tuoba Yuer said: "Achou, I... I'm not tired... I can wait longer." Chen Jingchou was afraid He couldn't hold it anymore, and said: "Sister Yu'er, Xiaoxue has been standing for a whole day... If you don't rest, she will definitely not rest." Tuoba Yu'er was startled, and said apologetically: "Ah, I'm sorry, Xiaoxue, it's all my fault..." I had to go back because of Xiaoxue's support. In the middle of the night, the weather became cooler, and the withered grass on the ground had begun to form a little bit of hoarfrost.Chen Jingchou stretched his arms and legs to get rid of the cold, he was confused, he really didn't know how long he had to wait.After a while, the moon has slanted to the west, and geese are screaming in the sky.In a daze, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Yu Xiaoxue.Chen Jingchou said: "Xiaoxue, it's so late at night, why don't you sleep?" Yu Xiaoxue took out some leftover dry food and said, "I think Brother Chen must be hungry, so I brought some food..." Chen Jingchou reached out to take it, and said, "Thank you... is Sister Yu'er in good health?" Yu Xiaoxue said, "Yes, it's okay." Big brother, you should go back quickly!" Yu Xiaoxue said: "Brother Chen must pay attention to your body, don't catch a cold." Chen Jingchou said: "Well, I will pay attention, sister Yu'er will trouble you so much!" Yu Xiaoxue went back on her own. Chen Jingchou stood at the edge of the chess game, feeling his mind getting heavier and heavier, and at some point, the sun had already risen, so he quickly rubbed his eyes, raised his spirits, and waited quietly.After a while, Yu Xiaoxue supported Tuoba Yu'er and brought over dry food for Chen Jingchou to eat.The three of them waited quietly together, and no one dared to make a sound, for fear of interrupting the old man's thoughts.If he thinks about it all over again, who knows what year and month he will have to wait. After about an hour or so, the old man finally spoke, and said with a cheerful smile: "Okay, the old man finally figured it out!" , have you figured it out?..." The old man said: "Hmph, don't think so badly of me every time!" He stretched out his two fingers, caught a sunspot, and dropped it on the chessboard.The chess piece drew an arc in the air, just landed on the side of the sunspots on the chessboard, and did not bounce back.Chen Jingchou and the others were slightly startled.The old man smiled all over his face and said: "This step is wonderful!" The young man took out the folding fan, flung it open, fanned it lightly a few times, and said, "Are you sure?" The old man said with a look of hesitation, "Sure, sure...don't take the old man so seriously every time. Flat." With a slight smile on his face, the young man closed his fan, tapped the handle on the chessboard lightly, and a white stone flew out of the jar, and fell into the chessboard impartially.The old man stared at the chess game for a long time, patted his forehead, and said regretfully, "Oh...why didn't the old man think of this move..." He kept shaking his head, blaming himself.The young man raised his head and said, "How about you, admit defeat?" The old man sat down slumped, and said, "No more, no more... This is the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-ninth time I have lost to you..." The young man smiled. : "Thank you for your compliment!" The old man turned his head and said to Chen Jingchou: "Now it's your turn. You have waited here for two days and nights. Your sincerity is commendable—what can you do with us?" Chen Jingchou hurried up a few steps and bowed. He saluted and said: "Old Immortal... I want to beg you to go to a mountain called Fumo Mountain and save my master." The old man showed surprise on his face, and said: "Go to Fumo Mountain to save your master?... "Chen Jingchou said: "Yes, my master was trapped by a monster named Taotie. He temporarily sealed himself and that Taotie with the method of ice silk. I can defeat Taotie, so I beg the immortals to save my master!" As he spoke, the circles of his eyes turned red. The old man pondered for a while, and said: "So that's how it is...but if the opponent is Taotie, it will be very difficult! What you have broken into should be the Taotie's land that Emperor Haotian spent a lot of effort to seal thousands of years ago. hole." After thinking for a while, he said, "If Taotie reappears in the world, it will be a catastrophe... Your master sacrificed himself to freeze it, it is very correct..." Chen Jingchou plopped down on his knees, kept kowtow, and begged: "Old Immortal... Please go and save my Master, otherwise Master is really dying!" His eyes filled with tears.The old man twisted his long beard and sighed: "Silly boy, don't kneel down casually like this! A man's knees are worth a thousand pieces of gold, get up quickly!" Tuoba Yu'er also came over because of Xiaoxue's support, and said: "I beg you ...Old Immortal! Please, please help my good friend..." Yu Xiaoxue also stepped forward to beg.The old man pondered: "Oh... what should I do?" Everyone was at a loss as to what to do. The young man turned his head, put his mouth close to the old man's ear, and whispered a few times.The old man said: "Well, I understand." Turning his head, he said: "You must be very tired after standing for several days... Well, you go to Tianwai Village at the foot of the mountain first, find Ran Wengju, and rest there Rest. After a while, the old man will pass by himself." Chen Jingchou and the three agreed, and walked down the mountain slowly. After about an hour, I just came down the mountain.Surrounded by mountains and rivers, interlaced fields and fields, a village is looming in the mist.The three of them walked forward along the path, walked across the wooden bridge, and walked a few more steps, and a bamboo fence and thatched house came into view.Walking into the village, you can see that the houses are well arranged, and there are exotic flowers everywhere. Although there are not many people, they are all leisurely and content, a scene outside the world.Chen Jingchou asked the way and found Ran Wengju. Walking into the courtyard, I saw a little girl, dressed in Tsing Yi, with two hairpins on her head, sweeping the floor in the courtyard, singing in her mouth: "The autumn leaves are yellow, the weather is cold, and the dead branches are covered with frost; if you don't move your heart, The leaves don’t move, but the broom still needs to move!” When Chen Jingchou heard this, he was very surprised, stepped forward and asked, "Little sister, is this Ran Weng's residence?" The girl put down the broom in her hand, looked carefully at Chen Jingchou, nodded, and said, "This is the home of old Immortal Ran Weng. May I ask how many guests came from the chess booth?" Chen Jingchou wondered: "Playing against the chess pavilion?" Suddenly he understood, and said: "You mean the place where chess is played on the mountain? We came from there." The girl said: "Old Immortal Weng has been waiting for you for a long time, please come in quickly!" Invite Chen Jingchou and three people to the hall. As soon as Chen Jingchou and others entered the hall, they saw Ran Weng and the young man, leaning on a wooden crutch and waving a folding fan, waiting for each other in the hall.Surprised, Chen Jingchou walked up a few steps and said, "Old Immortal Ran Weng, why did you come back faster than us?" Duo—that's why I told you to go first!" Turning to look at Tuoba Yu'er, frowning slightly, said: "Is this little girl blind due to her face being destroyed and her injuries gradually getting worse? ?” Chen Jingqiu said: "Yes... Old Immortal, how could you know so clearly?" Ran Weng smiled and said, "It's not that I'm powerful, but the Gu Yue Immortal next to me just told me!" Chen Jing Qiu hurriedly saluted the young man.Ran Weng said: "Immortal Gu Yue's medical skills are unparalleled in the world. If you want to subdue that gluttonous glutton, you should also ask him! —— If the old man wants to deal with that ancient monster, I am afraid that he is powerless and powerless." Chen Jingchou turned around and begged: "Immortal Gu Yue, I'm sorry! We want to ask you..." But before he finished speaking, Gu Yue closed the folding fan in a bang, interrupted the conversation, and said, "You don't have to beg me, I'm afraid I can't help you..." When Chen Jingchou heard this, his heart sank, and he hurriedly asked: "Immortal Gu Yue...why?" Gu Yue shook her head slowly, looked out the window, and said, "In the world of mortals, there are never too many Right and wrong... I live in seclusion here, and I no longer care about human affairs..." Chen Jingchou said: "Yes, but..." Gu Yue said: "This young master's master can sacrifice himself, and his spirit really makes me feel better." People admire me. But I have long since left the mortal world, and I don’t care about worldly affairs anymore, so you don’t have to waste any more time..." He said and walked towards the outer door. Tuoba Yu'er said: "I beg you! Immortal Gu Yue... A Qiu, he searched for a long time before he found you here..." Gu Yue was about to walk out of the hall when he suddenly stopped and turned around and said, "This The injury on the girl's face is very likely to deteriorate within a few days, and her life may be endangered... Tomorrow morning, you will go to the nearby East Emperor Ridge to pick a herb called Centennial Niancao, grind it into powder and apply it on the wound You can stop the injury...Sorry, that's all I can help! Farewell!" Chen Jingchou was still waiting to ask, but Gu Yue had already turned and left. When Chen Jingchou came back into the hall, he couldn't help lowering his head with a downcast expression.Ran Weng came over and said comfortingly: "Alas... my old friend, since I knew him, he has such a weird personality, you don't mind too much." Chen Jingchou said: "No... but Old Immortal Weng, we will never mind!" Ran Weng nodded and said: "Actually, he is very warm-hearted. If he doesn't help, it's fine. If he helps, he will definitely help to the end." Chen Jingchou said: "But...but why, this time, he won't help us by saying anything?" Ran Weng sighed, turned around, and said: "It's a long story...Twenty years ago, someone brought a dying boy to the island to ask him to save him. At that time, he agreed generously. It took a lot of real power to save the child just now... Who would have thought that the child would become a person who ruined the world and killed innocent people after he grew up... This incident has always made him feel guilty! Since then, he has never I would like to ask about the affairs of the world, and he will refuse anyone who asks him for help." While talking, Tuoba Yuer suddenly became dizzy, and Yu Xiaoxue hurriedly supported her.Chen Jingchou hurried over and shouted: "Yu'er, Yu'er, what's wrong with you?" He touched her forehead and said, "Why is it so hot!" Ran Weng came over to take a look, and quickly pressed his hand on Tuoba Yu'er's head. After a cup of tea, Tuoba Yu'er just woke up leisurely, and said in a low voice, "I, I'm fine... Please don't worry about me!" Chen Jingchou said, "Sister Yu'er, so you were afraid We are worried, and we have been holding on by ourselves?" Tuoba Yu'er was about to answer, her eyebrows frowned, and she became dizzy again. Ran Weng said: "Stop talking to this child, help her into the room and let her have a good rest." Chen Jingchou Yiyan helped Tuoba Yu'er into the room, let her lie on the couch, and pulled her Cover with a quilt.Tuoba Yu'er was drowsy and gradually fell asleep.Chen Jingchou said: "Old Immortal...I am very worried about Sister Yu'er's body, I...I want you to take me to find the century-old twig grass right now." Ran Weng said: "Silly boy, it's getting dark now, and the mountain is so steep... You should have a good rest first, and I'll take you up the mountain to collect herbs early tomorrow morning, and it won't be too late." Chen Jingchou listened Yes, I had no choice but to nod in agreement.Ran Weng said: "By the way, I have something to do tonight. I have to go out. If there is nothing else, then I will go first." Chen Jingchou and Yu Xiaoxue said goodbye to him.Ran Weng turned and went out. In the evening, the girl brought the food and delivered it to the room.Yu Xiaoxue filled some porridge and fed it to Tuoba Yuer.Chen Jingchou moved his chopsticks a little, not knowing how to eat.Yu Xiaoxue persuaded: "Brother Chen, you have to go to the mountains to collect medicine tomorrow, so what can you do if you don't eat." Chen Jingchou had to take a few more mouthfuls.Yu Xiaoxue also ate some, and asked the girl to take it back.The light of the oil lamp was dim, flickering on and off.Chen Jingchou and Yu Xiaoxue stood by the bed, feeling tired.Chen Jingchou leaned against the wooden wall and closed his eyes in a daze. Sleeping in the middle of the night, he suddenly felt someone pushing his arm. Chen Jingchou slowly opened his eyes, but saw that it was Yu Xiaoxue, and asked, "Xiaoxue, what's wrong..." Yu Xiaoxue said anxiously: "It's not good... Sister Yu'er's face is so hot!" Chen Jingchou asked in shock: "What?" He quickly turned over and walked to the wooden couch.With the help of the dim light, seeing Tuoba Yu'er's face was burning red and her brows were tightly furrowed, she was extremely uncomfortable.He hurriedly stretched out his hand to touch her forehead, only to feel it was hot like burning coals.Standing up, clasping his wrists with both hands, he said: "This... what can I do about this." Pacing back and forth, he suddenly said, "I don't know if the old immortal has come back, maybe he has a way." Walking into the hall, the surroundings were pitch black, and even more I don't know which house Ran Weng lives in.After hesitating for a while, he couldn't care anymore, and shouted: "Old Immortal, Old Immortal... have you come back?" After a long while, the room was completely silent, and there was no movement at all.Chen Jingchou yelled again.But the light in the small room to the west was on, and the little girl came out. Chen Jingchou stepped forward and asked: "Little sister, has the old fairy come back?" The girl said: "The old fairy has gone to the South China Sea, and now I think he has not come back." Chen Jingchou thanked him, hurried back to the room, and looked at Seeing Tuoba Yu'er, the burning was even worse.After a while, he made up his mind, pulled out the dagger, aimed at his left arm, and chopped it off hard.Yu Xiaoxue exclaimed: "Brother Chen!..." and ran over.Chen Jingchou laughed bitterly and said: "Silly Xiaoxue...you sacrificed so much for Sister Yu'er last time, of course I should do it this time!" Blood gushed out, and her clothes were completely red.Yu Xiaoxue cried, "Brother Chen...you, you!" Chen Jingchou said: "Xiaoxue... don't talk about it now. Take out the Shennong Cauldron, and we will use the method last time to help sister Yu'er get over tonight's difficulty. I will go to the mountain to collect herbs tomorrow morning!" Xiaoxue agreed tearfully, took out the Shennong Cauldron, and put in the rest of the herbs in the package.In the cauldron, however, no more colorful clouds rose up.Not long after the pill was refined, Yu Xiaoxue fed it to Tuoba Yu'er. The two waited quietly, but after an hour or two hours, Tuoba Yu'er did not get better.Yu Xiaoxue stepped forward to take a look, and said urgently: "Brother Chen... Sister Tuoba's body heat hasn't dropped at all, instead it's getting hotter and hotter!" Chen Jingchou hurriedly stepped forward to look, only to see that Tuoba Yu'er's arm was red with heat, he stretched out his hand to feel the pulse, the pulse condition was extremely disordered, it was already dangerous.Chen Jingchou said: "The method that was effective last time, why didn't it work this time?" Yu Xiaoxue cried, "Brother Chen, what should we do?" Chen Jingchou gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it... Sister Yu'er won't be able to last until dawn if this goes on! Xiaoxue, you stay here and watch, I'll go out for a while!" Then he turned around and strode away.The girl heard the voice and asked in the room: "Big brother, where are you going?" Chen Jingchou didn't answer, and hurried out of the hospital. Yu Xiaoxue waited for more than two hours, but Chen Jingchou did not come back, so she was anxious.But Tuoba Yu'er was completely out of mind at this time, she was exhaling a lot of breath and taking in a little, she was about to die.Yu Xiaoxue was so anxious that she wanted to cry but couldn't, so she made up her mind and ran to the chess pavilion on the top of the mountain alone.After finally climbing to the top of the mountain, dozens of bloodstains were drawn on the hands and feet by the thorns.The moonlight was bright and clear, the wind was cold, and the ground on the top of the mountain was already covered with a thin layer of hoarfrost.One person stands alone on the edge of the cliff with his hands behind his back, facing the vast land, and lowers his eyebrows in thought.Yu Xiaoxue walked a few steps closer and recognized the Immortal Gu Yue, so she didn't dare to disturb her casually, she just heard him slowly chant: "The world is so far away from the world, I can't bear to be sad and chaotic in the world; my heart is Xiaoxiao, let the wind pass away, and the clouds are slowly rising Around the fairy mountain." Yu Xiaoxue walked up a few steps, and said: "Immortal, immortal..." Gu Yue looked up at the faint starlight, and said, "Oh, is it a little girl with white hair? Why did you come here late at night?" Yu Xiaoxue choked up and said: " Immortal...Tuoba, Sister Tuoba is dying, please go and have a look! Please...save Sister Tuoba!" Gu Yue shook her head and said, "You go back... I have my own measure, I can't make an exception at will!" Yu Xiaoxue cried, "Immortal!..." Suddenly he fell to his knees, kowtowed, and said, "Immortal, I beg you... Please save Sister Tuoba! I don't want her to die... don't want her to die... ..." I couldn't make a sound. Gu Yue said: "Let me ask you... Where is your male companion?" Yu Xiaoxue shook her head and said, "I... I don't know either! Brother Chen... Brother Chen hasn't come back since he left the house..." He kowtowed again after finishing speaking. 古月转过身来，道：“你先起来吧……” 于小雪抬头道：“仙人是答应救拓跋姊姊了？……”仍然跪着不肯起。古月不答，缓缓地道：“你可知你那位女同伴，容貌被毁之前，原是一位绝世美人吗？” 于小雪脸颊滚下泪珠，道：“我知道……所……所以拓跋姊姊，现在毁了容又失了明，内心一定比谁都痛苦！” 古月看着于小雪，道：“以我之医术，不但可救活她，还可以让她容颜和双目都恢复如旧——但你可知这对你而言，意味着什么后果吗？” 于小雪一愣，道：“我，我不知道……” 古月道：“你心里，其实很喜欢你那位男同伴，对吧？” 于小雪脸上一红，低下头去，道：“我……我……没有……” 古月微微一笑，道：“我生天地间数千年，阅世也多矣……你这点小小女儿心思，我怎会看不出来？” 于小雪不知怎样回答。 古月抬起头，正色道：“如果那一位姑娘恢复了光明和容貌，对你绝没有任何好处，她很可能就是第一个抢走你心上人的人！况且她命中注定该绝于此岛，这也不是你的错……你若救她，只是在戕害自己之幸福而已，明白了吗？” 于小雪听了，心中犹豫了一下，道：“我……我……” 古月道：“你最好自己想想清楚，恕我失陪了。”转身走开几步，就欲离去。 于小雪忽然连连磕头，砰然有声，哭道：“仙人，求求您……我也很喜欢拓跋姊姊，所以求求您，还是一定要救救拓跋姊姊……” 古月脸上微微一动，停步不前，转过身来，正要开口说话。突然山侧一人急步走来，拄着拐杖，却是然翁。只见他另一只手里还提着一少年，径到亭边，将那人往地上一放，转头对古月道：“啊，原来你这还有一位傻女孩？我这也有一个小傻瓜！” 于小雪转头看去，失声惊呼：“陈，陈哥哥！”连忙扑了过去。见陈靖仇双目紧闭，浑身是血，已是奄奄一息。不禁失声恸哭起来，道：“陈哥哥……陈哥哥……你醒醒，快醒醒啊……你不要也走了，抛下我孤零零一个人！” 然翁皱皱眉头，对古月道：“这个傻小子……竟在深夜里冒冒失失地去爬东皇岭，结果失手坠入山崖！你瞧，他手臂上还有不知哪来的偌大伤口，亏他这样，也敢去深夜攀崖！——若非老夫归来途中碰巧遇见，恐怕这小子早已送了命！”古月听了，垂眉不语，手上折扇，竟来回颤动。 然翁劝住于小雪，转身对着古月，叹气道：“唉，这些小娃儿，实在是……简直和你年轻时一模一样，为了自己珍惜之人，全不顾自己性命！” 于小雪又跪着哭求：“仙人……求求您！救救陈哥哥和拓跋姊姊……求求您！” 古月沉吟一会，道：“你起来吧……”于小雪仍不肯起身，古月折扇一扬，于小雪只觉一股柔和之力，已将自己轻轻托起。古月仰起头，叹息良久，方道：“唉……人间有情，更胜天道！我今日算是被你们这些小娃儿打败了！……”然翁听了，呵呵一笑，道：“白发小姑娘，还不快向仙人道谢！”于小雪又惊又喜，连忙拭干眼泪，向古月拜了几拜，道：“仙人，谢谢……谢谢您……” 古月道：“嗯……那我们先回然翁居去吧！你放心……我既然答应过你，就一定会将他们两位都治好的。”
