Chapter 624: Tie the Heart Lock
Daohua and Xiao Yeyang threw the divination blocks together and then left the hall.
Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua with a smile: "Do you dare to come with me to climb the narrow line of sky on Fengshan Mountain?"
Daohua raised an eyebrow and said, "Why should I be afraid? I've heard that Fengshan Yixiantian is a place of danger, steepness, and seclusion. I've wanted to come and see it for a long time."
Xiao Yeyang smiled and took Daohua's hand: "Then let's go."
Daohua stood still: "My third brother and the others haven't come up yet, let's wait for them."
Xiao Yeyang: "Are you sure your three sisters can climb up?"
At this time, Defu stepped forward and said with a smile, "Miss Yan, Delu just checked. Third Master Yan and his companions haven't even reached the halfway point yet. Second Miss Yan and his companions need to rest after climbing for a while. It will probably take them an hour or two to climb up."
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "Let's go. I left some people here. When Wentao and the others arrive, they will know where we went."
Upon hearing this, Daohua said no more and followed Xiao Yeyang towards the back mountain of Taifeng Temple.
Just as Wang Maner and Bishi were about to catch up, they were stopped by Defu.
Defu: "Master and Miss Yan are climbing the mountain, let's not disturb them."
Wang Man'er frowned: "But what if the young lady needs our help?"
Defu said as a matter of course: "Don't we have my master?"
Bishi: "What if we encounter danger?"
Defu continued to smile and said, "No, the master has already sent people to explore this place before. Don't worry, it's very safe."
Without waiting for the two to say anything, Defu asked them to pick the grapefruits nearby.
"The pomeloes at Taifeng Temple are so sweet. Let's pick some and take them back for your daughter to eat."
Yitiantian is located in the eastern part of Fengshan. According to legend, it was split open by one of the gods with an axe during a fight between two gods. The crack in the cliff is nearly 300 meters deep. The narrowest part of the crack between the two walls can only allow one person to pass through, and the fastest speed is only about one meter. It is thousands of meters long.
Soon, Xiao Yeyang brought Daohua to the entrance of Yitiantian.
Looking at the strangely shaped, deep and narrow passage, Daohua sighed: "Nature is truly amazing."
"What are you mumbling about? Hurry up and catch up."
Xiao Yeyang was the first to step into the cliff path.
Daohua stepped up and followed.
Xiao Yeyang looked back at Daohua from time to time and reminded her, "Watch your step. The ground is a little uneven. Don't sprain your ankle."
Daohua nodded. The ancient times were not like the modern times. Sky-high cracks like this one were developed into tourist attractions and paved with stone steps. Now the ground is purely natural, bumpy and very uncomfortable to walk on.
After entering the One-Line Sky, Daohua couldn't help but look up, and saw a ray of skylight leaking in from the crack in the cliff, like a blue rainbow across the sky, extremely beautiful.
But after walking for a while, Daohua was a little out of breath.
There is no other reason, the undeveloped One-Line Sky has many places that are very steep and require both hands and feet to climb up.
Looking at the steep path several meters high in front of her, Daohua lowered her head to see that her skirt was a little dirty. She couldn't help but look back, as if she wanted to go back.
Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang stretched out his hand and said, "Come, I'll hold you."
Daohua hesitated for a while before reaching out her hand.
When the crevice was wide, Xiao Yeyang could still pull Daohua up, but when the crevice became narrow, Daohua had to rely on herself to climb up.
Although tired, once you enter the depths of the cliff, the cool breeze makes you feel refreshed.
"No, I need to rest for a while."
When he had climbed two-thirds of the way, Daohua could not walk anymore. His hands and feet hurt.
Seeing Daohua rubbing her hands, Xiao Yeyang quickly pulled them over to take a look. Seeing that both palms were red, he quickly lowered his head and blew on them: "Can you continue?"
Daohua nodded and pulled her hand back.
Seeing that she was indeed a little tired, Xiao Yeyang hesitated for a moment: "How about we turn back?"
Rice Flower was unwilling to do so: "I have come this far, how can I give up halfway?"
After resting for a while, the two continued to climb up.
When they reached the narrow passage, Daohua was completely exhausted. She didn't care if she was dirty or not, and sat down on the ground. She pounded her weak legs and said, "No wonder the ladies always say the scenery is beautiful when they talk about the narrow passage, but never think of going up to see it. I'm so tired, I can imagine they are even more exhausted."
Xiao Yeyang walked over to Daohua and sat down, then put her legs on his legs: "Let me rub them for you."
Feeling Xiao Yeyang's hands pressing on her legs, Daohua felt a little uncomfortable and tried to pull her legs back, but failed.
Xiao Yeyang: "Let me give you a massage, otherwise you will definitely be sore all over when you go home today."
Feeling that her calves were indeed much more comfortable, and since there was no one else around, Daohua didn't refuse.
During this time, Daohua thought of what her third brother had said before, and immediately asked, "Third brother said that you guys are going out in a few days?"
Xiao Yeyang nodded: "Yeah."
Rice Flower: "When are we leaving?"
Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua: "Before Mid-Autumn Festival, I can't celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival with you this year."
Daohua frowned: "How long will you be away?"
Xiao Yeyang switched to Daohua's other leg and continued massaging: "It depends on how smoothly the matter is done. It can take as short as ten days to half a month, or as long as more than a month."
Daohua: “So long?”
Xiao Yeyang's expression was somewhat solemn: "This mission is a bit tricky, so it will take a little longer."
Daohua looked worried: "Will you be in danger?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, your two brothers and I will be careful."
Daohua was silent for a moment. "Come to Taohua Village with your third and fourth brothers in a couple of days. I have a big surprise for you."
Xiao Yeyang paused and asked with a smile, "What surprise?"
Daohua smiled and said, "It's a good thing anyway."
Seeing her playing dumb, Xiao Yeyang immediately felt like teasing her. He moved his right hand to Daohua's jade feet and tickled the soles of her feet unexpectedly.
This time, Daohua didn't laugh, but instead screamed in pain.
Xiao Yeyang's expression changed: "What's wrong?"
Daohua frowned: "My feet hurt."
Xiao Yeyang immediately took off Daohua's embroidered shoes. When he was about to take off his socks, he paused and looked at Daohua: "Let me show you?"
Daohua didn't have the idea that her feet couldn't be seen. Her feet were in great pain at the moment, so she nodded immediately: "Yeah."
Xiao Yeyang quickly took off her socks, and then he saw that Daohua's fair and slender feet were a little red: "It must be hurt by a stone. Just bear with it, I'll rub it for you."
As he spoke, he carefully massaged the soles of Daohua's feet.
Watching Xiao Yeyang holding her feet, pressing and moving them bit by bit, Daohua felt a little pain and itchiness on the soles of her feet. When she thought about the current secular world where women can only show their feet to their husbands, she felt uncomfortable.
After a while, feeling that her foot was not so painful anymore, Daohua quickly said, "Xiao Yeyang, it's okay." As she said that, she was about to retract her foot.
Xiao Yeyang was a little worried, as they still had to go downstairs soon, so he held onto Daohua's feet and said, "Let me rub them for you again."
Daohua shook her head: "It really doesn't hurt anymore."
Xiao Yeyang wanted to say something else, but when he saw Daohua's slightly red ears, he suddenly realized something. Looking at the jade feet in his hands, his expression became a little uncomfortable.
"Okay, if your feet hurt later, I'll massage them for you."
As he spoke, he began to help Daohua put on her shoes and socks.
After putting on her shoes and socks, Daohua stood up and asked, "Should we go somewhere else or go back?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "We finally climbed up here, so of course we have to go to Tongxin Cliff on the top of the mountain." The main purpose of him asking Daohua to come to Fengshan to burn incense was to come to Tongxin Cliff.
Daohua's face froze, and the origin of Tongxin Cliff instantly came to her mind. She glared at Xiao Yeyang with anger on her face.
Xiao Yeyang smiled, picked up the rice flowers and walked forward.
Soon, the two arrived at a cliff top surrounded by guardrails.
Looking at the interlocking love locks on the guardrail, Daohua glanced at Xiao Yeyang again.
Xiao Yeyang smiled and pulled Daohua over to the old monk who was meditating with his eyes closed. He bowed and saluted, then said, "Master, we want a pair of heart locks."
The old monk hummed and narrowed his eyes.
Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang took out a silver ingot and placed it in the bowl in front of the old monk. Then he squatted down with Daohua in his hand and picked up the love locks on the ground. "Tell me which pair we want?"
Daohua glanced at the delicately carved stone lock on the ground and couldn't help but look at the old monk.
It’s amazing that you can carve stone into this!
"Is this okay?"
Xiao Yeyang picked up a pair of stone locks and showed them to Daohua, with some nervousness in his eyes.
Bringing Daohua to tie a love lock this time was actually a bit inappropriate, but after thinking about it, he just wanted to bring her to do this on Daohua's birthday.
Daohua took a look at the stone lock and thought it was good, so she nodded subconsciously. After nodding, she felt that something seemed wrong. It seemed that she had not agreed to wear a love lock with Xiao Yeyang.
As for Xiao Yeyang, the moment Daohua nodded, he smiled and handed the selected stone lock to the old monk: "Master, we have chosen it."
The old monk took the stone lock, took out a carving knife, and looked at Xiao Yeyang: "What is the name of the donor?"
Xiao Yeyang: "Xiao Yeyang."
The old monk looked at Daohua again and asked, "What's your name, female donor?"
Daohua: ".Yan Yiyi."
The old monk's carving knife moved a few times, and then he handed the heart-shaped lock to Xiao Yeyang.
Looking at the flowing name on the stone lock, Daohua and Xiao Yeyang looked at each other.
The old monk is a master!
Afterwards, Xiao Yeyang and Daohua bowed to the old monk, and then walked to the top of the cliff to hang the love lock.
Watching Xiao Yeyang pulling her around to look for the location of the padlock, feeling that this place was not suitable and that place was not suitable, the corners of Daohua's mouth slowly rose.
I didn’t expect this guy to be so romantic!
Well, this birthday gift is really special and meaningful.
Seeing that Xiao Yeyang was still looking for a place, Daohua pointed to a place and said, "How about here?"
Xiao Yeyang took a look and did not object: "Okay, let's hang our love lock here." As he said that, he locked his stone lock to the iron chain of the guardrail.
After finishing, he looked at Daohua and said, "It's your turn."
Daohua bent down and locked the stone lock on Xiao Yeyang's stone lock.
Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang lowered his head and chuckled softly beside Daohua's ear, "Now that you have locked me up, we will never be separated in the future!"
When Daohua heard the tender and sweet words, she felt sweet in her heart. She turned her head and looked at Xiao Yeyang who was standing nearby.
Their eyes met in the air, and unspoken feelings spread and grew in each other's hearts.
In the distance, the old monk opened his eyes at some point and looked at the young boy and girl who were looking at each other in front of the guardrail, with only each other in their eyes, and a kind smile appeared on his face.
