Questions sur les chansons d'amour - Chapitre 44
I was curious about where my master was taking me, so I kept asking him questions along the way, but he just smiled and didn't say anything.

“Master, look over there.” I suddenly pointed to a dangerous peak not far away and playfully stuck my tongue out at my master.
My master glanced at me sideways, a hint of dark blue flashing across his long eyelashes, his expression playful: "What's wrong there? Little Yan'er can't resist showing off her great achievements there?"
I laughed triumphantly, "Master, so you knew? You didn't know? That day was hilarious! Mo Yu and I arranged to meet on this mountain. I even built a hang glider, and then..."
In the morning sunlight, two riders rode side by side through the still-mist-filled mountains, accompanied by the clear, triumphant laughter of a young boy, which startled the morning birds into flight.
The path my master led me on today was different from the path I took when I came here a few days ago.
In fact, during my time here, I've been so busy causing trouble within the city that I haven't paid any attention to the areas outside. As for this mountain range, I've only been to the nearest peak once, when I needed to use a hang glider with Kim Sam. The rest of the area is completely unfamiliar to me.
Along the official road leading directly to the city gate, the terrain is mostly low hills or open plains. Looking up, one can vaguely see distant mountains, lush forests, and verdant peaks.
My master listened with a smile to my constant chatter. After a while, he confidently pulled on the reins, drove off the main road, and spurred his horse onto a quiet and charming path. I quickly spurred my horse to follow closely behind.
Turning past a small hill, a small lake suddenly appears on the left, like a bright mirror. The water is clear and calm, so clear that one can see their own reflection. In the morning mist and evening fog, the lake is shrouded in a cool haze, its beauty serene and pleasing. On the opposite bank, green mountains stretch as far as the eye can see, with verdant bamboo and ancient pines, creating a serene and picturesque scene.
The valley is dotted with uniquely shaped peaks and strangely shaped rocks, and dense forests where rare birds and animals are often seen. A clear stream meanders through the valley floor, its surface reflecting the strange rocks; under the sunlight, the water shifts and the rocks change shape, creating endless illusions. The Huan River is over twenty zhang wide, flowing between two banks of massive rocks. The river is lush with aquatic plants, the water reflecting their deep green hue, creating a striking contrast between the red rocks and the green water, a breathtaking and mysterious beauty. Upstream, precipitous peaks rise, cliffs stand tall, and the terrain flattens out, with flowing water and verdant forests. Further downstream lies a vast wilderness, until finally, in the distance, undulating mountains reappear.
I was so shocked that my mouth was agape, I couldn't close it. I never imagined that such a pure and natural beauty, which had long disappeared from my world, could be preserved so simply and beautifully in this time and space.
Overjoyed, I slid off my horse and jumped to the water's edge in the valley, where I started making a ruckus.
The water was extremely clear and sweet. The water flowed over my feet, leaving my shoes slightly damp, feeling refreshing and cool.
"Master, how did you know about this place?"
“I didn’t discover this place.” The master’s lips curled slightly.
I turned my head and looked at my master, and then I understood: "Master, you mean this place is dark at night?"
"Yes. Two days ago, after Dark Night suddenly went mad, when Master woke up again, he was already fast asleep. It was in this valley at the time. Although Master didn't see how he got here, as long as you know the direction and distance to the capital, it's easy to find him."
"Master, you're amazing." I laughed too.
"Wow! There are fish, Master!" I suddenly shouted, extremely excited, and waved to Master. Master approached with a smile, but before he could see clearly, a burst of water mist rushed towards him, soaking him completely.
I laughed out loud, and with a premonition, I quickly jumped to the other side, guarding against my master's retaliation, and casually scooped up a large handful of water droplets and sprinkled them behind me.
Water droplets slid down Master's sharply defined face, reflecting the shimmering morning sunlight, obscuring his bright, sparkling eyes and making his expression somewhat indistinct. Master's lips curved slightly into a faint smile, and he was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed. His features sharpened, the mischievousness in his eyes vanished, replaced by an unfathomable and shocked light. He stared coldly at me, who was happily playing in the water...
Meanwhile, I was beaming with joy and hadn't noticed the changes happening around me at all.

Chapter 101: Reunion
I was playing happily in the water, catching fish as they swam by myself.
"The water is clear, the river is wide, its mouth is tightly closed, its eyes are wide open, quiet, quiet, not afraid of the kitten catching me..."
The playful singing rang out cheerfully, accompanied by my occasional bursts of laughter.
Before I knew it, my clothes were mostly soaked.
The birds chirped sweetly in the mountains, adding a touch of tranquility and peace to this ordinary morning.
The master remained silent, standing quietly on the shore. The rising sun cast his shadow on the water, reflecting his slightly stagnant figure and unchanging expression.
He was looking at me, his gaze, obscured by the water, like the morning mist veiling the mountains, carrying a hint of ambiguity.
My gaze froze, and the corners of my mouth involuntarily curved into a smile.
Haha, he actually came?
I turned around with a smile and waved the small fish I had finally managed to catch at the dark night: "Good morning, want to eat fish?"
Dark Night's gaze darkened slightly, concealing the shock he couldn't hide on his face, and he said coldly, "How did you end up here?"
I answered cheerfully, my voice brimming with undisguised joy: "Of course I'm here to have fun. And you? What are you doing here?"
My hand tightened, and I was gripped by the darkness. My entire arm immediately went numb and sore. Before I could protest, I was dragged ashore in a disheveled state.
Darkness gripped my chin, forcing me to look up at him.
"Who exactly are you?"
His voice was deep and gloomy, his eyes held an extreme coldness and ruthlessness, and his exquisitely defined features exuded a chilling murderous aura. He resembled a natural ice sculpture formed in an extremely cold place, and at the same time gave people the illusion of a slumbering mad lion. There was only one thing that left no doubt: at this moment, if my answer was even slightly wrong, I would likely have my neck snapped and be thrown out immediately.
I blinked innocently, then suddenly smiled sweetly. A hint of surprise flashed across my dark, icy eyes. Before I could react, I had already bent my knee and rammed into him hard.
With a painful groan, An Ye loosened his grip, and I quickly broke free and jumped to the side.
Hmph, I told you long ago, I wouldn't let you get away with it so easily this time.
"You!" Dark Night glared at me.
"What did I do wrong? I haven't even asked you yet. Who are you? Why are you always following me? And why are you always threatening to hit and kill me? What have I done to you? If you keep this up, I'm going to report you to the authorities." I looked extremely angry, pouting and glaring at him.
An Ye's expression froze for a moment, and his anger slowly faded from his face.
"What are you doing here?" He didn't come any closer, but still spoke in a cold voice.
