Long live the snake stepmother

Chapter 123 Wine Tasting Contest (3)
Looking at the shining girl in the snow, Han Xuebing raised her mouth, "Sure!"

In the white snow, the two figures marched towards the sacred mountain without fear of hardships and dangers. At that moment, they both took off their camouflage and guarded against each other, and for the first time made each other's hearts so close.

"It's so cold!" Lin Xiyue's breath immediately turned into white mist, which was blown away by the wind blowing from the mountains.

"Yes." Hanxue Bing smiled, "The altitude here is very high, so you have to be careful if you go higher, the snow layer there is thick, but the fulcrum is not stable enough, a small sound can easily cause an avalanche. "

"Can't we make a detour?" Although Lin Xiyue wanted to win the game, she didn't want to risk her life.

"If you want to go back within five days, you can only choose this shortcut, otherwise you will lose if you miss the last time of the game!"

Lin Xiyue raised her head and looked at the majestic snow-capped mountains in front of her. As Han Xuebing said, if she wanted to reach the top of the mountain in the shortest time, she had to give it a go.

Lin Xiyue looked at Han Xuebing who was so familiar with the terrain, and asked, "Have you been here before?"

"kindness."

"why?"

"Like you, in order to find the answer." Han Xuebing looked at the white snow in front of him, and his heart was once again overwhelmed by the majestic scenery.

"Then have you found the answer?" Lin Xiyue always thought that this question was written by Han Xuebing, but it didn't seem to be the case.

"Half and half."

"Interesting answer." Lin Xiyue squatted down, picked up a small ball of snow, put it into her mouth, and chewed carefully, "The water from the snow mountain contains a lot of minerals, and it is truly hard water. The hardness is equivalent to the minerals in wine, and holding snow in your arms makes people feel the sense of minerals, which is the hint hidden in the question." Lin Xiyue knew that the answer must be on the top of the mountain.

Han Xuebing didn't speak, a warm smile rose from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were filled with inexplicable joy, looking at the girl in front of him.

It was the first time Lin Xiyue saw Han Xuebing who smiled so heartwarmingly, she was fascinated for a while, and said to herself, "Actually, you are not a cold-hearted person. You have become so cold?"

The two walked halfway up the mountain, and the wind blowing from the mountain brought a different smell, a little sweet feeling, which seemed to be there, but it was still lingering under the nose, looking up, it was still just white snow.

"Did you smell it?" Lin Xiyue suddenly stopped and asked Han Xuebing.

"what?"

Lin Xiyue closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "It's a sweet feeling."

"It's the smell of rain brought by the wind that runs through the mountains." Han Xuebing also raised his head, took a deep breath, and felt, "When I first came here, I also smelled it." .”

"It's right in front!" Lin Xiyue suddenly became very excited.

Pointing to the front, she shouted, "The wind is guiding our way forward, it must be ahead! Let's go!" After finishing speaking, she took Han Xuebing's hand and strode forward, not noticing that there was a big Slope, slipped foot, fell sideways.

"Xiyue, be careful!" Han Xuebing quickly pulled her into his arms and held her tightly, and then the two of them rolled down the hillside together.

After finally stopping the rolling, Lin Xiyue realized that Han Xuebing rolled down the mountain while holding her. She was not injured, but he cut her face.

"Your face." She reached out and touched it lightly.

"Hey!" Han Xuebing snorted softly, his brows had already been twisted into twists, and in the ice and snow, even a little injury was more serious than in the flat ground.

"It hurts, right!" Lin Xiyue looked at him distressedly, "I'm sorry, I was too careless."

Han Xuebing knocked her on the head, "It's good to know, I was hurt because of you, so you must remember, I will ask you for this debt in the future!"

"Ouch!" Lin Xiyue covered her head and pretended to be angry on purpose, "Be gentle, be careful to beat me stupid, and I'll depend on you when the time comes, it's up to you!"

"Then I will reluctantly accept it!" Han Xuebing suddenly laughed.

Han Xuebing changed his previous cold and evil appearance, his face was filled with a gentleness and warmth that Lin Xiyue had never seen before, like the warmest spring breeze blowing past in March, making the cold sky no longer It's just a vast expanse of whiteness, but with a touch of sunshine and warmth.

"You are the real you right now." Lin Xiyue raised the corners of her lips, "Why do you want to hide your real self?"

Han Xuebing let out a muffled laugh, and looked up at her, "Why don't you think that maybe I'm just pretending."

"That's right, I always wear a mask." Lin Xiyue stood up and looked forward, thoughtfully, "After a long time, even I will forget my real appearance, even if I am showing the most authentic self at this moment, I will not forget my true self." I'll know, but..."

Han Xuebing raised his eyes, and in the radiant sunlight, a pretty figure was set against the white snow, forming a beautiful scenery.

"But I believe that you are more real now than ever before." Lin Xiyue turned her head to look at Han Xuebing who was still sitting in the snow, and smiled resolutely.

A subtle feeling wanders in his heart. For many years, he has been climbing the peaks alone, climbing one after another. Even in the face of difficult and dangerous situations, he will never give up, because only when When you step on the highest peak and look down, the absolute sense of power can fill his empty heart. Loneliness and emptiness seem to be his only companion, and he spent the days and nights after that with him, just today There is a strange and strange feeling. In that dark world that has been closed for a long time, a strange and gentle voice suddenly broke in, soothing gently, as if telling, wait, the sun is about to arrive, and there will be no more here in the future. It was dark, and the gentle voice was coming from the person in front of him.

Just like that, he stared at the person smiling softly in the sun, and after a long time he stood up, shaking the snow on his body, "Let's go, we have to find a place to camp before the sun goes down, the temperature here at night It will be very low, if you don’t leave, you will really become a popsicle.”
