In the middle of the night, there was silence in the valley, the lights in the houses where people lived were turned off, and everyone fell asleep after a busy day.
Zheng Xiao walked alone in the valley, walking forward along a path until he reached the end of the path. There were green trees there. Under them was a hot spring, which was steaming under the moonlight.
heat.
Zheng Xiao wanted to take a bath. He had been running around and fighting for the past few days. His body was covered only with dirt and dried blood. When he entered the valley, he simply washed his face. At this time, he felt that his body had turned into clay figures and itched.
It's fatal.
Walking through the trees outside the hot spring, Zheng Xiao came to the hot spring, took off his clothes and pants in a few moments, and then jumped into the water, making a splash.
Suddenly, someone's scream came to mind in the water, which broke the silence around the hot spring. Zheng Xiao, who had just jumped into the water, was so excited that he jumped back to the shore!
The upper body of a girl emerged from the water, with the upper part of the chest exposed above the water, and the rest of the body hidden under the water.
The girl's long hair was wet and hanging loosely on her shoulders. Her face was filled with horror and a bit of shame and anger. She didn't expect that someone would come here at this time, which really caught her off guard.
"Fortunately, I didn't take off my underwear." Thinking of this, Gui Yiming felt a little more at ease. She looked at the man on the shore, her cheeks turned red, and she immediately lowered her head, not daring to take another look.
Zheng Xiao on the shore was now naked, completely exposed in front of Gui Yiming. This made Miss Gui, who had seen the big world, a little unable to resist, and her heart was beating wildly.
Zheng Xiao stayed on the shore, probably because the stimulation was too strong, so he forgot about his current appearance for a while, and just mumbled an explanation, "Miss Gui, I didn't mean it, I'm sorry."
"Captain Zheng, can you put on your clothes first?" Gui Yiming's voice was as low as a mosquito's chirping, but it sounded like thunder in his ears.
Feeling hot on his face, Zheng Xiao hurriedly grabbed his clothes, put them on, put them on as fast as he had been since he was born, and then let out a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Zheng Xiao had put on his clothes, Gui Yiming asked him to turn around, then went ashore and put on her own clothes. She often went to the beach to bathe in the West, so she was more accepting than women in China at that time.
Much stronger, calmness soon returned.
After getting dressed, Gui Yiming shouted to Zheng Xiao, "Captain Zheng, I'm ready."
Zheng Xiao turned around and suddenly felt his eyes light up.
The current Gui Yiming seemed to be two different people from the first time he met her. At that time, her face was stained with mud and blood, her dress was all black, and her hair was disheveled like a madman.
After taking a bath today, Gui Yiming put on a new lotus-colored dress, her cheeks were flushed due to the temperature of the hot spring, and her long, silky hair was spread around her shoulders, making her look like a fairy from the dust.
Seeing Zheng Xiao looking at her, Gui Yiming smiled slightly and said, "Captain Zheng, I'm really sorry for delaying your bathing just now. Why don't you go on and I'll go back first."
Zheng Xiao smiled bitterly, "After what happened, I have a shadow about bathing. Let's forget about it today and talk about it tomorrow."
"In that case, let's go for a walk together. I won't be able to sleep when I go back anyway." Gui Yiming blinked her big eyes, and there were still crystal drops of water hanging on her long eyelashes.
Zheng Xiao couldn't sleep even when he went back, so he nodded, and the two of them left the hot spring and walked along the path deeper into the valley.
At this time, everyone in the valley was asleep, and there were only more than a thousand people in total. This huge valley seemed too empty. Zheng Xiao and Gui Yiming walked and talked while walking, and they walked a long distance without knowing it.
"Zheng Xiao, who are you and where do you come from?" Gui Yiming stopped, turned to look at Zheng Xiao, and asked the question that had been waiting in her heart for a long time.
This question had arisen in her mind since the first time she met Zheng Xiao. She wanted to ask Zheng Xiao several times, but she had no idea. In today's environment, she still asked.
Zheng Xiao laughed and did not answer Gui Yiming's question, but asked, "Is this important?"
Gui Yiming tilted her head, looking like a little girl, staring at Zheng Xiao with bright eyes, waiting for his explanation.
Zheng Xiao stretched out his hand to brush away a branch, and then said slowly, "It doesn't matter where I come from or who I am. What matters is that I saved you, and it was the result of a fight to the death with the Japanese. That's enough."
Gui Yiming chewed on Zheng Xiao's words and seemed to be convinced by him, but then she thought about it, smiled, and then said angrily, "After talking together for a long time, you still avoided my question."
Zheng Xiao did not answer, and the two of them wisely avoided the question and started talking about other things.
Zheng Xiao was very fond of military engineering and had done corresponding research, while Gui Yiming majored in weapons manufacturing, so the two of them became more and more speculative as they talked, and they were very motivated to meet each other very late.
Unknowingly, the two people reached the end of the path. Here was a stone forest, two or three meters high, densely packed with hundreds of roots, arranged in a certain order.
When he got here, Zheng Xiao stopped. He raised his head and looked at the moon above his head, and said apologetically, "Miss Gui, it's getting late. Why don't you go back and rest."
Gui Yiming shook her head, looking very interested. She walked up to the stone pillars, stretched out her palms to stroke their weathered surfaces, then turned back to Zheng Xiao and said, "Zheng Xiao, I'm not sleepy yet. I want to
Why don't we go in and take a look, I think it's very mysterious inside and it will definitely be fun."
Zheng Xiao shook his head helplessly and had no choice but to accompany her towards the stone forest.
The light in the stone forest is a bit dark. The moon outside shines in and is blocked a lot by the stone pillars, so it doesn't look as bright as outside. The shadows behind the stone pillars seem to be hiding some monsters, which makes Gui Yiming involuntarily.
Feeling anxious in her heart, she subconsciously leaned towards Zheng Xiao.
A faint fragrance floated into Zheng Xiao's nostrils, and Gui Yiming beside him seemed to be someone who had been banished to the mortal world, which made the originally dark stone forest brighter.
The two people walked forward side by side, talking in low voices. The sound of their footsteps echoed in the empty stone forest, fluttering together as the two people moved forward.
As Zheng Xiao walked, he paid attention to the stone pillars around him. He found that the arrangement of these stone pillars was very regular and seemed to follow some rules. However, he didn't understand it for a while, so he fell into deep thought.
Ah——, a scream of a hundred decibels resounded in the stone forest. The next moment, Zheng Xiao felt a fragrant wind blowing against his face. A soft and smooth body fell into his arms, and his arms wrapped around him tightly.
his neck.
"What's wrong, Miss Gui?" Zheng Xiao was confused by Gui Yiming's sudden move. He hurriedly patted Gui Yiming's back gently, and then persuaded, "You come down first, you can do anything with me.
Don’t be afraid.”
But Gui Yiming still hugged him tightly, her body was trembling, and her voice was also trembling, "Zheng Xiao, there are sounds and shadows shaking over there."
Zheng Xiao looked in the direction she said and saw a shadow shaking!
