The only honor of the water cut off

Section No.13

Misty flowers and blue misty rain, fierce sky and fire entering the forest, do not want to dance with ghosts and ghosts, and call each other as outliers.

Gongsun Ce couldn't help the coachman pleading, and finally let him go. Fortunately, he remembered the road, and Xiao Zhanzhao was driving the car, and from time to time he poked his head in to chat with Xiaoli, and he was happy.

Bao Zheng's complexion was much better than Gongsun Ce's imagined. Perhaps it was because he had rested quietly for a whole day, or maybe he had eaten some decent meals after all. From Bao Zheng's point of view, besides being thinner, he didn't look like a patient at all. .

Gongsun Ce pulled his wrist to signal his pulse, but Bao Zheng sat down and asked softly in his ear carefully: "Just now... did the driver say there is a ghost?"

Gongsun Ce turned his head to one side, looked at him strangely, frowned and said, "Nonsense!" He closed his eyes and continued to sound his pulse.

Bao Zheng stuck out his tongue, looked away, saw the woman in plain clothes sitting in the corner, met her eyes, and turned his head hastily.

This look is so sad, Xiaoman, Xiaoman, I searched my memory hard, but I couldn't find the slightest similarity, but Gongsun Ce said she was Xiaoman?

Since the evening, Xiaoman deliberately stood at a distance, maybe because he was afraid of uttering some words from his mouth, maybe because he couldn't bear the alienation in his eyes, maybe because he was unwilling to leave.

Xiaoli squeezed Xiaoman's palm secretly, and Xiaoman realized that his palm was cold.

The legendary Nightsong Forest is approaching.

The cyan mist diffused from the forest, and the chill penetrated into the arms.

The ancient forest is surprisingly luxuriant, among the broken gray remains of ancient trees, towering giant trees stand proudly.Looking up, there is no star, no moon, and the dense branches and leaves are intertwined layer by layer.

The carriage followed the winding path, overgrown with weeds, and it was no longer possible to see where it was coming from. It slowly rose with the terrain and entered the depths of the forest.

Gongsun Ce raised the curtain and looked out. The low branches almost hit his head, and there were dark red vines everywhere, drooping one by one, curled up, all over the eyes, casually looking like a blood-colored pulse between the blue leaves , the entire forest, like a breathing elf, has grown into a heaven-penetrating appearance.

There was an inaudible but continuous sound that sounded at the right time. Gongsun Ce listened attentively, but the sound disappeared again.

The little raccoon rushed to Zhan Zhao's side, and said softly, "Did you hear anything just now?"

From this, Gongsun Ce was sure that he had no auditory hallucinations.

Zhan Zhao pondered for a while before replying, "Who seems to be breathing?"

The little raccoon opened his mouth wide and stared at Zhan Zhao. Isn't this intentional to scare people?

Zhan Zhao chuckled and said, "Maybe some monkeys are yawning together somewhere!"

The little raccoon rolled his eyes at him, and went back again. Gongsun Ce said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, little raccoon, the forest is extremely rich in species. When Man said that birds and beasts, even flowers and plants can make a sound, I'll know." There is a kind of weeping flower, which can make a woman's sad cry when the wind blows. It is so shrill that people can't help feeling the magic of creation.

"Brother Gongsun is very knowledgeable." The little raccoon smiled like a flower, gave Gongsun Ce a thumbs up, then withdrew his smile, turned his head and said, "It's not like some people, what kind of monkey yawns."

I only heard Zhan Zhao laughing outside the car: "How can I compare with Big Brother Gongsun!"

As he said this, the road suddenly became much steeper. After turning over the steep slope, he heard the sound of rushing water, and bursts of blue-white smoke rose in the distance, rushing away the impenetrable forest. The skylight, the sky with bright moon and few stars, is clean and reassuring.

The coldness of the dense forest at night was dissipated by the warm mist.

The sturdy branches receded to the left and right of the carriage, revealing the exquisite courtyard wall of the hot spring courtyard.

The gate of the courtyard has faded from vermilion to dark ochre, and there are some signs of decay at the foot of the door, but the lock on the knocker is new. When Gongsun Ce pushed the door open, a gust of damp came in, with the smell of moss , although someone thoroughly cleaned it during the day, after all, few people came, and the smell of the forest extended in.

It is said to be a separate courtyard, but in fact it is just a few connected houses built end to end according to the height of the hot spring. Except for the doors and windows, they are all made of rocks, which are strong and moisture-proof. The doors and windows are made of the famous local red vertebra wood. The wood was heavily varnished to allow the yard to last for many years.Even better, each house has two doors, one of which opens onto a spring, and behind the door a protruding stone slab leads to steps leading into the water.

Gongsun Ce was standing by the pool on the lowest floor, with a faint smell of sulfur in his nose. Looking up, those spring pools piled up with the mountains did not seem to be formed naturally, they looked like farm terraces in hilly areas. The water slowly overflowed layer by layer, and finally all gathered behind the house and flowed into the mountain stream.

It's just that the tree is too luxuriant, and it can't be seen any more.

Zhizhou is also very attentive, teapots, water cups, flint candles are prepared in each room, and the bathrobes are also neatly folded on the bed.

Gongsun Ce led Bao Zheng to find a pool at random, put the acupuncture tools on the table, went outside, leaned over to test the water temperature, quite satisfied, and said: "The temperature is just right, Bao Zheng, come here!"

He called a few times, but no one answered him. Looking back, he saw Bao Zheng squatting in the corner with his face in profile, as if he was concentrating on something.

"Bao Zheng, what are you doing?" Gongsun Ce approached him, stretching his neck to see what he was doing, but Bao Zheng turned around to block his sight.

Bao Zheng muttered, "I won't talk to you."

Instead of being angry, Gongsun Ce smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Why don't you talk to me?"

"Just now when I spoke, you called me 'nonsense' very fiercely!" Bao Zheng tilted half of his face, pouted, and his tone was a bit coquettish.

Gongsun Ce was stunned for a moment, and didn't remember when he said this, but Bao Zheng like this seemed to have known him before.

That stupid big bag who was carefree and carefree in Shuangxi Town, and I used to worry about him being stupid, but now facing him who seemed to be better than before, there was only a pain in my heart pity.

Gongsun Ce also squatted down, coaxing him with a smile, "Okay, why don't you be more aggressive next time? It's late at night and it's cold, so go soak your body to warm up, so I can give you acupuncture."

Bao Zheng glanced at the pool of water with white mist outside the door, and immediately widened his eyes. In his opinion, that...Where is the water, it is simply a pot of boiling soup!

"Wow! I just took a shower yesterday, I don't want to take a shower!"

Gongsun Ce frowned and said: "This is not a bath, this is to heal your wounds!"

Bao Zheng pouted: "It's such a hot day, so hot water, can you change it to something cooler?"

"The hot spring can help your blood flow unimpeded, the hotter the better!" Gongsun Ce tried to pull Bao Zheng up: "I promise, it won't be uncomfortable!"

Bao Zheng rolled his eyes and said, "Then don't get angry, I'll obediently go soak it!"

Gongsun Ce wondered, "Angry, why should I be angry?"

"Because..." Bao Zheng grinned, stood up abruptly, and raised his right hand, which had been hiding behind his back, to Gongsun Ce's eyes. He was holding a silver needle in his hand, and the big and sharp one-minute needle had already disappeared. It was gone!

Judging from Gongsun Gongzi's expression at this time, his endurance is also extremely limited. He only heard him roar: "Bao Zheng, what are you doing with my silver needle!"

I think that set of silver needles is not expensive, but it has been with me for many years, and more importantly, it is time to use things.Fortunately, what Bao Zheng damaged was only a needle on the surface of the skin, which was used to treat superficial diseases.

Gongsun Ce stretched out his arm to take the needle back, but Bao Zheng thought he was going to catch him, so he jumped away. When Gongsun Ce chased him again, he circled around the table and shouted, "Oh, I don't want to be angry Well! Just now I saw a wall made of stones, with almost no gaps, so I tried it with a needle! Unexpectedly, I couldn’t get it in at all, and if I tried harder, the needle would break!!!”

"Crack!" Gongsun Ce had no intention of joking with him, and slapped the table heavily.If he hadn't seen the charming poison himself, he would almost have thought that Bao Zheng was playing tricks on him.

Bao Zheng shrank his shoulders, stopped, and secretly looked back at him.

"You!" Gongsun Ce pointed out the door angrily: "Go into the water! Immediately!"

Bao Zheng muttered: "I said I'm not going to be angry, so I went to make a bath!"

Gongsun Ce's ears were sharp, and Bao Zheng's words were heard. Seeing him making a gesture to roll up his sleeves, he said with a gloomy face, "Do you want me to do it and put you in!"

"Ah!" Bao Zheng quickly put the silver needle in his hand on the table: "Don't be angry, go right away!" After saying that, he stepped out the door in two steps.

Gongsun Ce picked up the silver needle on the table and put it under the lamp to look at it. Sure enough, it was useless. He thought, Qinzhou is not a small place, and it would be better to find a day to go out and get one. His clothes were still on the bed, so he took them out and gave them to him.

When I went out, I saw Bao Zheng squatting barefoot by the edge of the pool, the water vapor was dense, and the outline was a bit blurred.

Gongsun Ce's face darkened, and he said, "What are you doing?"

Bao Zheng raised his head and seemed taken aback, so he had to confess honestly: "I'm waiting for the water to cool..."

Gongsun Ce didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he put his clothes on the slate, and said: "Soak in water for half an hour, the water will reach your shoulders, if I find you get up halfway, you can soak for another hour!"

"Oh..." Bao Zheng finally stood up honestly, stretched out his hand to untie his jacket, Gongsun Ce gave him a look that you dare to try tricks, turned and left.

One step, two steps, third step....

There was a soft sound from behind, like a sigh, like a low moan, ethereal and without a trace, from the ear to the heart, a heart-breaking chill.

Gongsun Ce couldn't help getting goosebumps all over his body, the voice was exactly the same as Cai Linzi heard just now.

He paused a bit guilty, but suddenly heard Bao Zheng shout: "Ghost!!"

Gongsun Ce was startled, and turned around quickly, but he didn't want a black and white shadow to rush towards him, and before he recovered, he was thrown to the ground.

"Oh, my hand hurts so much!" Bao Zheng said in a muffled voice behind Gongsun Ce.

"Bao Zheng! What are you doing again?" Gongsun Ce straightened his hat that was tilted to one side, and propped up half of his body. Bao Zheng's bare arms were tightly wrapped around his chest, and his head was buried in his back. , listening to him say in a muffled voice: "Gongsun Ce, you are deceiving, you are deceiving! There are ghosts! There are ghosts!"

"Where did the ghost come from! Get up quickly!" Gongsun Ce stretched out his hand to grab Bao Zheng's arm.

Bao Zheng saw that Gongsun Ce didn't believe him, as if he was afraid that he would go away, he wrapped his arms even tighter, stuck out his head, weeping, with a look of shock, he hurriedly said: "Don't go, don't go, really, that's The female ghost in white clothes just floated by so lightly, he...his face is blue, and he is still smiling at me!!!!"

ghost?

Could it be that the strange sound that looks like breathing is a ghost?

It's just... It's just a fantasy.

Bao Zheng didn't look like he was lying.

This Bao Zheng didn't seem to be insane, but rather like a child who hasn't grown up yet, seeing his frightened appearance, his heart softened, so he had no choice but to let him hold him.

Gongsun Ce frowned and glanced at the half moon in the sky, thinking about it, trying to give a reasonable explanation for the 'ghost' that Bao Zheng saw...

The half-moon moon suddenly disappeared, Gongsun Ce blinked suspiciously, and the disappearing moon appeared again, and he couldn't help widening his eyes.

No, it wasn't the mysterious disappearance of the moon, but a black shadow blocking the moon in mid-air, and the moonlight was reflected in his eyes, outlining those eyes as sharp as an eagle.

Gongsun Ce only had time to say "Hey", and the black shadow had already arrived in front of the two of them.

The flames of candles ten feet away flickered on his face.

he? ?

Seeing the man stretching out his hand and slashing towards this side, Gongsun Ce was lifted by his palm, and the strong wind as sharp as his gaze closed his eyes, but suddenly felt his chest loosen, and Bao Zheng's arm wrapped around his chest , unable to slide away.The man had already turned into a claw, and picked up Bao Zheng completely. In panic, Bao Zheng grabbed the back of his neck with both hands.

Gongsun Ce was shocked: "Pang Tong! What are you doing?!"

I saw Pang Tong's face turned cold, and he flicked his hand without any hesitation. Bao Zheng screamed "ah", and then there was a splash of water. The splash of water wet the platform halfway, and Bao Zheng's body fell straight into it. The smoky pool water --- the sulfur hot spring that Gongsun Ce tried hard all night but couldn't let him go down.

The depth of the pool is less than half a foot, so what if you hit a stone with such a throw!

Gongsun Ce shouted angrily: "You!..." Putting his hands on the ground and trying to stand up, Pang Tong squinted his eyes, and immediately leaned over, squeezed his arm, and his hand went numb immediately, and he went back again. After softening, Pang Tong propped his hands on his side, looked down at him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and focused his gaze even sharper.

"What am I doing?" Pang Tong hummed lightly: "You've been busy for a long time, don't you just want him to go to the hot spring?"

Gongsun Ce said angrily: "He will go by himself, don't worry about it!"

Pang Tong sneered: "Young master is sending clothes and supervising, you really worry about it!"

"Pang Tong, you're spying on us?" Gongsun Cefu rolled his eyes again, and shouted angrily, "Don't you know that no evil is seen?"

"Hahaha!" Pang Tong raised his head and laughed loudly, but he heard the fear in his heart: "He takes off his clothes to take a bath, and he is naked. You just come in without asking. Does the young master know how to do no evil?"

The chill on Pang Tong's face was even stronger: "Or...why are you ambiguous?"

Gongsun Ce was struggling to turn his head to look at Bao Zheng's condition, and saw him standing up from the water with a grunt, coughing, wiping the water on his face, and using his hands and feet to climb to the bank.Hearing Pang Tong suddenly say, when had he ever been humiliated like this, his lips trembled with anger, unable to say a word, he swung his palm, and rushed towards Pang Tong's cold face.

"Help, help! Come quickly!!! White female ghost! Male ghost!" Bao Zheng suddenly yelled loudly

"Hmm!" Gongsun Ce snorted, feeling the pain in his wrist being pinched. Pang Tong grabbed Gongsun Ce's wrist in his hand without batting an eyelid, and secretly increased his strength. There were two inaudible crisp sounds from his wrist. Seeing Gongsun Ce's expression of gritting his teeth in pain, he couldn't hold back his fingers anymore.

As soon as the strength on the wrist was loosened, Gongsun Ce's lips bit under his teeth also loosened. The cherry red color was embellished by the moonlight and sparkled with a little silver, and Pang Tong felt his head heat up, and he bowed his head...
