Chapter 793: It's easy to go up the mountain, but hard to go down
At this moment, Yan Bei rushed into the cave carrying a large bundle of firewood. His hair was wet and stuck to his forehead, and his face was covered with rain and sweat.
Seeing Shen Qing's frightened look, Yan Bei felt distressed. He quickly put the firewood on the ground, walked to Shen Qing, and hugged her tightly in his arms.
"Don't be afraid, I'm back." Yan Bei comforted her softly, his voice gentle and low.
Shen Qing hugged Yan Bei tightly, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw. She buried her head in Yan Bei's arms, feeling his warm chest and strong heartbeat, and the fear in her heart gradually dissipated.
Yan Bei patted Shen Qing's back gently, then let her go and started to make a fire.
He skillfully piled the firewood together and lit the kindling with a lighter. The flames gradually ignited, and the warm flames instantly illuminated the entire cave.
Yan Bei sat by the fire and pulled Shen Qing to his side, letting her stay close to the fire for warmth.
Shen Qing looked at Yan Bei's focused profile, and felt inexplicably moved.
In this strange and dangerous environment, Yan Bei always stayed by her side, giving her a sense of security.
She suddenly realized that the man in front of her was really good to her.
"Thank you." Shen Qing said softly, her voice full of gratitude. Yan Bei turned his head and looked at her, his lips slightly raised, revealing a gentle smile.
"Silly girl, you are my wife, how could I let you get hurt?" Yan Bei said, he stretched out his hand and gently stroked Shen Qing's hair.
Shen Qing thought of the scar on half of her face, and her eyes dodged.
The scar on her face made her feel a little inferior, and she really wanted her scar to heal quickly.
But after tonight, they can continue to climb the mountain at dawn. They will be able to see the old Chinese doctor. Hope is right before their eyes.
In the warm firelight, Yan Bei and Shen Qing huddled together, listening quietly to the sound of rain outside and feeling each other's heartbeats.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still, and there were only the two of them left in the whole world.
The bad mood gradually disappeared.
Two people leaned against the wall of the cave.
Hug each other tightly.
I also felt the warmth brought by the fire.
Yan Bei lowered his eyes and looked at Shen Qing. "Wife, if you are sleepy, just lean on my shoulder and sleep. We will continue to climb the mountain tomorrow."
Shen Qing didn't say anything and leaned on Yan Bei's shoulder.
Slowly closed his eyes.
Fell asleep……
Yan Bei didn't dare to close his eyes at this time.
Because he knew that the mountain was deserted and unsafe.
So he had to protect Shen Qing and not let her encounter any danger.
. . . . . .
the next day.
Shen Qing opened her eyes.
He saw Yan Bei sitting next to him motionless.
"You're awake, wife!"
"You didn't sleep?"
"I...slept for a while."
He was too tired to speak and he didn't close his eyes all night.
"Oh." Shen Qing straightened up.
Then he stood up and said, "It's daybreak, let's continue climbing."
"it is good."
Yan Bei also stood up.
They walked out of the cave.
The weather is fresh after the rain.
Make them more motivated.
Yan Bei was in front and Shen Qing was behind.
He held her hand tightly and climbed up step by step.
"Wife, let's hold on a little longer. We'll be at the top of the mountain soon."
Shen Qing began to complain, "Why is this old famous doctor at the top of the mountain? It's so high, doesn't he come down the mountain?"
"I don't know either. Let's wait until we meet him!"
After resting for a while, they continued to climb!
"Hubby, how did Aunt Qin know that there was a famous Chinese doctor who could treat scars on Mingdu Mountain? Could she have been here before? But we can see there aren't many people walking on this mountain!"
Yan Bei paused, "I don't know either. Aunt Qin wouldn't lie to us. She said it was many years ago. Maybe she came here many years ago."
Shen Qing had no choice but to nod.
……
Hard work pays off.
They quickly reached the top of the mountain.
I also saw one or two pedestrians.
Yan Bei and Shen Qing walked over and asked, "Hello, I'd like to ask if there is an old famous doctor here."
"Old famous doctor?" A middle-aged man looked at them in surprise.
"Yeah. I heard he can heal scars."
"Oh, the famous old doctor who treated the scar you mentioned, he died a few years ago."
"Dead?" Yan Bei and Shen Qing were both surprised.
"Yes. There are no famous doctors in the mountains now."
The middle-aged man looked at the scar on Shen Qing's face and asked, "Did you come here just to see the scar?"
"Yes."
"I heard that the old famous doctor had a descendant. After his death, he passed on his ancestral method to his descendants. You might as well go and look for his descendants."
"Then do you know where his descendants are now?"
The middle-aged man shook his head. "I don't know about that."
A hint of disappointment appeared on Yan Bei and Shen Qing's faces.
Just about to turn around and leave.
The middle-aged man continued, "Wait a moment."
Yan Bei and Shen Qing turned around together.
"But if you really want to find him, I have heard of his name, Liu Dewang. But where exactly is he? I really don't know."
"OK, thanks."
Yan Bei thought the middle-aged man was nice, so he asked some off-topic questions.
"I also want to ask why there are not many pedestrians on this mountain."
"Well, it's a long story."
"What's going on?" Yan Bei wondered.
"Has this mountain been in a state of panic for a long time? And accidents often happen on this mountain. It's best to come here with a group. I came here with one of my friends. I really don't dare to come here alone."
"Then what are you here for?"
"We come here every year at this time to visit the graves on the top of the mountain."
Yan Bei nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
The middle-aged man continued, "You'd better hurry down. They say it's easier to go up a mountain than down. You'd better be careful when you go down. It's not easy to reach the foot of the mountain safely."
This made Yan Bei and Shen Qing feel a chill on their backs.
Shen Qing then said, "Husband, let's go down quickly!"
"Uh-huh."
Yan Bei pulled Shen Qing and started walking down the mountain.
Shen Qing said with some fear, "If we had known earlier, we wouldn't have come."
Suddenly, a stone tripped Shen Qing's feet...
