Chapter 10 Downhill

Chapter 10 Going down the mountain

"Zhiruo, do you know that my master has placed all our hopes on you?"

Zhou Zhiruo looked calm and said: "Disciple knows."

Jue said: "You are extremely talented and intelligent, but you are too stubborn and have too much self-esteem. I am afraid that you will misunderstand me because of this."

Zhou Zhiruo remained silent and did not speak. She was indeed stubborn and had too much self-esteem. Even if she stayed on Peach Blossom Island for decades, she could not change her temperament, so she later went to find the girl in yellow shirt to fight with her.

But in the past few years in Mount Emei, she has always deliberately reminded herself not to be too stubborn and forceful when encountering problems. Her behavior has been suppressed a lot, but she didn't expect that her master would notice it.

"When you go down the mountain tomorrow, you can take some time to relax. Maybe you will be better without these burdens on you." Master Miejie suggested. Zhou Zhiruo was moved in her heart and said, "Yes, I understand, disciple."

After leaving the ancestral hall, Zhou Zhiruo went to the kitchen to get some leftover food and went to the back mountain.

Beside the clear lake, Xiao Yu'er was practicing his finger-flicking magic. Zhou Zhiruo watched from a distance and found that his accuracy had improved a lot.

"Xiao Yu'er." Zhou Zhiruo called Xiao Yu'er, walked up to him with a food box and said, "It's time to eat."

Xiao Yu'er sat down on a stone with a smile, waited for Zhou Zhiruo to open the food box, then picked up the bowls and chopsticks to eat. He never sat upright when eating, he was crooked, but very

charm.

Zhou Zhiruo said: "Leave at dawn."

This was the first time she smiled like this in front of Xiao Yu'er.

Before Xiao Yuer came over, Zhou Zhi wanted to order two cups of tea and waited while drinking tea. The man in the teahouse saw that she was a beautiful young girl and wanted to get close to her, but he saw a

There was a sword from the Emei Sect next to the package, and the desire in my heart died down.

Finally, she tied the horse to a willow tree beside the stream outside the village.

The afterglow of the evening shines into Mount Emei, causing every tree and grass in the mountain to be coated with a layer of warm light. Zhou Zhiruo leads the horse and strolls away. His posture is agile and elegant, giving people a just right and beautiful feeling. It is a beautiful scene.

It is a joyful feeling that the heart is full. If this feeling is more, it will feel warm, if it is less, it will feel cold. Only now is the most appropriate and comfortable feeling.

Xiao Yu'er's origin may be a bit strange, but his kindness and innocence cannot be faked. It's just the environment he lived in since childhood that made him "bad", so she wants to teach him and make him avoid detours.

Zhou Zhiruo rode her horse and wandered around the market for a while. More than half an hour later, she went to the Ruyi Teahouse in the east of the town.

Zhou Zhiruole stopped his horse and said: "Xiao Yu'er, I still have something to do, why don't we leave here. We will meet at the Ruyi Tea House in the east of the town two hours later."

Once, when faced with Xiao Yu'er who suddenly appeared in the mountains behind Emei, she was wary and tempted, but as they got along for a long time, she began to slowly see Xiao Yu'er clearly.

"Let's go." Zhou Zhiruo's voice was light and her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, as if she was slightly worried.

Halfway up the mountain, Xiao Yu'er was still leaning against the tree. He was covered in the afterglow and had a faint smile on his lips that was irresistible.

Zhou Zhiruo looked at Xiao Yu'er while eating and said softly: "I'm going down the mountain tomorrow, you can come with me."

There is a small wooden bridge over the creek. The water flows under the bridge and the cool air blows on your face.

The Emei sect always has a fixed place to buy things. Zhou Zhiruo went there one by one according to the addresses on the booklet, told them what they wanted, paid a deposit, and they would find someone to send the things to Emei. As for what the senior sisters wanted

She also asked someone to send her things to Emei.

In the territory of Mount Emei, many villages have received help from the Emei Sect. Their stability depends on the Emei Sect. Who dares to easily offend the Emei Sect?

Zhou Zhiruo just waited quietly for half an hour. Xiao Yu'er hadn't come yet. She glanced at the package on the table. It contained the new clothes she bought for Xiao Yu'er, but she only took it.

Jian stood up and left.

Xiao Yu'er didn't stop eating, but looked happy: "When will we set off tomorrow? What fun things are there at the bottom of the mountain?"

Xiao Yu'er was just about to go shopping by himself, and when he heard what Zhou Zhiruo said, he naturally agreed, so he smiled and said, "Okay, I'm leaving." After that, Xiao Yu'er turned around and walked into the crowd, and Zhou Zhiruo glanced at him.

The back figure also rode away.



Xiao Yu'er nodded, walked over and pulled the reins to lead Zhou Zhiruo's horse, and walked towards the town at the foot of Mount Emei.

It's time for her to return to the Emei sect.

After casually eating a bowl of noodles for lunch on the roadside, Zhou Zhiruo rode her horse to a remote village. She walked across small bridges and flowing water, passed by playful houses, and saw the happiness of her relatives and the innocence of children, and a warm current slipped through her heart.

Zhou Zhiruo's mood was much lighter at this time. She saw no one around, and thought that her feet were sweating because she was tired from walking, so she took off her shoes and socks and sat on the small wooden bridge. The cool stream flowed over her fair skin.

Her crystal-clear feet and sparkling waves kept flashing on her body.

Although the town at the foot of Mount Emei is not prosperous, it is still very lively. People coming and going in the market have different expressions on their faces, but most of them are smiling and seem to be very satisfied with their lives.

But she knew that Xiao Yu'er's behavior in the past few days was just a helpless act. In Xiao Yu'er's heart, he was thinking about escaping from her all the time. As expected, he firmly grasped such a good opportunity today.

This was Xiao Yu'er's first time out of Mount Emei, and it was rare for him to breathe in the smoke of fireworks outside. At this moment, his face was full of smiles.

She stayed by the stream for a long time, and her cold and arrogant look was washed away by the stream. When she stood up again, there was a hint of tranquility in her expression.

Zhou Zhiruo put on her shoes and socks, took the horse, and rode out of the village.

After walking out of the teahouse, Zhou Zhiruo had no intention of returning to the Emei Sect immediately. The master told her to relax, so she took it easy.

Xiao Yu'er smiled and said, "Okay."

After finishing these things, it had already taken Zhou Zhiruo more than an hour, and now there was less than an hour left before meeting Xiao Yu'er.

Zhou Zhiruo stopped and looked at the extra package on Xiao Yu'er. She was surprised and then slowly laughed. The clouds in the sky were eclipsed by her smile.

Halfway up the mountain, Xiao Yu'er was leaning against a tree, waiting with the faint starlight. Zhou Zhiruo came slowly on horseback, passing through the layers of mist in the mountains and forests, and finally stopped three meters in front of Xiao Yu'er.

Zhang's place.

At this moment, Zhou Zhiruo is like a nine-day fairy who does not eat the fireworks of the world, light and refined, pure and charming.

Before dawn the next day, Zhou Zhiruo got up, packed up her sword, brought shopping brochures and silver coins, led a horse to the stable, and then walked down the mountain in the dying moonlight.

This place is remote and inaccessible.

"Master, why didn't you bring the clothes you bought me back with you?" Xiao Yu'er looked at Zhou Zhiruo and asked with a smile.

Zhou Zhiruo walked closer and asked with a smile: "Why can't I see you at Ruyi Tea House?"

Both of them are extremely smart people. No one knows what the situation is at this moment better than them. One is testing, and the other makes his own choice after hesitation.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, then went up the mountain just like they did when going down the mountain.
