C508 On the White Wall
"Pull him up. What are you waiting for?" One of them shouted.
"Don't pull him up! Let him climb up by himself. No one is allowed to pull him up!" Yici shouted at them.
When the two of them heard Yici's words, they indeed did not dare to move. They stood where they were and looked at the people lying on the ground beside White Wall.
Yici also took a step back and stood there looking at him.
Yici originally thought that if the two of them arrived before dark, she would definitely send them down. But this time, she did not plan to interfere with him. It was only because of her kick just now. She felt somewhat guilty that she almost kicked him out of White Wall, just like now. She didn't want to help him, nor did she want to disturb him.
He took a deep breath and climbed up the stairs in one go. After rolling a few rounds, he lied beside Yici's feet and said, "I arrived before dark. My brother did not arrive. But he did not say that two people must come, so don't punish my brother!"
Yici could not help but be a little surprised. She could see that the person in front of her was protecting the person he treasured.
With her hands behind her back, she bent over to look at the person on the ground and asked, "What is your name?"
"Lyi Xuanzhi!"
" My name is Yici! "
After Yici finished speaking, she left with her hands behind her back. She did not say anything and did not punish anything as she entered the courtyard.
Lyi Xuanzhi panted and sat up. He smiled and said, "May the two brothers tell us how to go down the mountain? My brother is still at the foot of the mountain!"
Yici, who had already left, heard his question and sent a voice transmission through the door, "Seniors, go and fetch his brother to White Wall. He lives in the West Garden. You and I live in the Plum Garden!"
When the two of them heard Yici's words, they jumped down. An hour later, they saw Lyi Jiazhi sitting at the side. They stared straight at White Wall, afraid that something would happen to Lyi Xuanzhi.
He could have walked up the small path, but he chose to walk up the cliff and climbed up with his bare hands.
When the two of them saw him, they made their intentions clear. They took him to the rope next to the cliff and pulled. A wooden board appeared, just enough for three people to stand on.
"Since there is such a convenient way, why do you want us to take the risk and go to White Wall?" Lyi Jiazhi was a little annoyed.
"Because you are now an important guest, but not before!" He answered with a smile.
Lyi Jiazhi was also silent, of course he knew what they meant.
In the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, they had arrived at White Wall.
It had already been some time since they arrived at the west mountain. Lyi Xuanzhi was still standing in front of White Wall. He was looking at the bottom of the cliff, trying to catch Lyi Jiazhi's figure.
"Big brother!"
"Jiazhi, are you alright?"
Lyi Jiazhi was a little choked up. He saw that Lyi Xuanzhi's clothes were tattered, and there were wounds on his arms. There were also some blood stains on his face.
He hugged him and said, "Brother!"
"It's good that you are fine!"
"Please come in. Little Junior Sister has instructed that you go to Plum Garden and he will go to the West Garden."
Yin Luo led the two of them into the room. Once they entered, the two boys retreated. Their goal was to guard the door and not leave.
Naturally, after they entered, two young men who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old walked over and said, "This is the Plum Garden. Little Junior Sister said that the two of you can stay in the Plum Garden together today. Tomorrow, this little brother will go to the West Garden! The West Garden and the Plum Garden are only separated by a wall."
"Many thanks!" The two of them bowed.
When they entered the Plum Garden, the sky was completely dark.
The Plum Garden was not big, but it had two separate bedrooms. The doors were facing each other, just like the streets in an alley. When they opened the door, they could see the other party's house.
The garden was just like its name suggested. Xuemei's courtyard was filled with plants, but the scenery was very lush, and it didn't seem to wither at all because of the change in the season.
A voice came from inside the house, "The house on the left is yours, and the table is filled with what you have to do tomorrow. It's already been four hours, and there's no more food for you to eat!"
Lyi Xuanzhi bowed deeply to the house on the right to express his gratitude.
He asked gently, "Jiazhi, are you hungry? I'll go and get you something to eat."
"By the way, let me remind you that once you enter the Plum Garden, you can't come and go as you wish. Tomorrow, he will go to the West Garden!"
When Lyi Jiazhi heard this, he shook his head and said, "Brother, I'm not hungry!"
Lyi Xuanzhi smiled and brought him into the room.
The room was not simple and crude. Instead, it was indescribably elegant. There were flowers, books, and lamps.
There was a piece of paper on the desk. It wrote down what he would do tomorrow neatly. He did not say anything to Lyi Jiazhi. He only told Lyi Jiazhi to leave Plum Garden at the time of the morning.
The next morning, Lyi Jiazhi left on his own accord and went to the west garden. Lyi Xuanzhi changed into the gray robe on the table and went out to find a hoe under a plum tree. He started to tidy up Plum Garden.
His note clearly stated that he would tidy up the Plum Garden tomorrow, and then the Plum Garden the following day. He would tidy it up until he was satisfied!
Anyone could see that this was Yici deliberately playing with him.
Lyi Jiazhi's western garden was even more unique than Xuanzhi's. There were four rooms, and they were all side by side.
Each room had many books on it. There were books on how to rule a country, there were general records, and there were all kinds of writing. There were all kinds of books.
"You need to read every book here at least three times!" A young man dressed like a scholar ordered.
"After you finish reading, go and take the test. After passing, you can go to the next room. I live in the house in front of you. Maybe after you come out, I won't be in that house anymore. Someone will take you to the next house! "
That person finished speaking and proudly stepped out of Lyi Jiazhi's room.
Obviously, Lyi Jiazhi didn't expect that the house here was actually made up of half a room of books. It was completely different from Lyi Xuanzhi's room next to it.
Although he was surprised, he still took a book and started reading it. Before he entered the room, he already knew that if he did not recite a word, he would not be able to eat.
He could not start his literary path.
Lyi Xuanzhi was different. He was tidying up the plum trees in Plum Garden. Yici did not look at him. She went out whenever she wanted to. She did whatever she wanted. Except for her, no one else in Plum Garden had come in.
Occasionally, Yici was in a good mood and placed the food on the stone bench in Plum Garden. If he was not in a good mood, he would starve and have nothing to eat.
Both of them had their own matters to attend to.
The old man in white hadn't returned yet.
Yici also found it boring when she saw him tidying up the Plum Garden like a mute.
Sitting on the stone bench, she looked at his figure and asked, "Do you want to learn the sword?"
When Lyi Xuanzhi heard this, he was slightly stunned. He was stunned because this was the first time she had spoken to him in these few months. Usually, she would throw the food away and disappear.
Lyi Xuanzhi, however, did not say anything.
"I'm asking you a question. Are you mute?"
He remained silent!
At this time, Yici was a little annoyed. She stood in front of him. Even if Lyi Xuanzhi was half a head taller than her, she did not have the same imposing manner and was not afraid of him at all.
"I want to learn from you. Will you teach me?" Lyi Xuanzhi gave her a cold glance, then withdrew his gaze and continued to tidy up the plum trees.
"You beg me, I will teach you!" He said with a smile.
He lowered his head and said, "Then I won't learn!"
"Is it so hard for you to ask for help?"
Lyi Xuanzhi firmly said, "Difficult!"
"I want you to beg me!"
"Don't waste your time."
