Chapter 67: The Pink Veil
Passing through shallow ditches, on both sides of the ditch are peach trees, walking on the cobblestone road, above the head are the sharp green peach leaves like the tip of a needle.
"Every year in March and April, all the peach trees here are full of peach blossoms, which must be very beautiful. Looking at the rows of peach forests, Long Zun sighed as he walked forward.
Long Yun on the side turned his head, smiled mysteriously, and said, "Do you want to see peach blossoms?" Don't worry, I don't dare to say anything else, but there are definitely peach blossoms here for you to see." ”
Long Zun shook his head in disbelief and said, "It's the golden autumn season now, don't say that you see peach blossoms, I'm afraid even peaches are ugly." ”
"Haha, don't worry! Since you want to see peach blossoms, your wish will be granted. Long Yun said with a smile.
Long Zun pursed his lips, not believing that there would be peach blossoms this season, but he didn't continue to argue with Long Yun.
Soon, the two of them passed through the last row of shallow ditches planted with peach trees, and seven or eight meters in front of them was a courtyard gate, and in front of the door stood a young girl in a peach-colored shirt on the left and right.
Long Yun walked over, took out the sign in his arms, and handed it to the girl on the right.
The other party glanced at the other girl, nodded slightly, and turned to put the sign in a wooden box behind him.
The girl standing on the left hand side of the courtyard gate took out a dark wooden hook in her hand, hooked the curtain made of animal skins hanging in front of the courtyard gate, and pulled it to her side, and suddenly a warm current came to her face.
"Distinguished guests, inside please. The girl who threw the sign into the wooden box turned around with a youthful and sweet smile on her face.
"Let's go, let's see where the peach blossoms bloom. Long Yun beckoned, and with a short body, he passed under the curtain of animal skins.
As soon as he and Long Zun entered the courtyard gate, the girl outside the door let go of the hook that hooked the animal skin curtain in her hand, and the curtain naturally closed, blocking the warm current in the courtyard from flowing out.
As soon as you enter the courtyard gate, the oil lamps placed in rows on the left and right sides suddenly burn with blue light, like waiters welcoming guests, standing in a row on the left and right sides of the brush.
Then the light of the oil lamp, Long Zun saw that it was a cavern-like corridor, and on the left and right sides were stone walls that had been polished as smooth as mirrors, and there would be a break every other distance, indicating that these stone walls had been moved from there.
The corridor is not very long, turning a corner, more than a dozen steps in front of Long Zun, a green hazy natural light appeared, and he naturally guessed that it was the exit of the corridor.
He and Long Yun walked a few quick steps, standing in front of the exit of the corridor, and the scenery outside couldn't help but surprise him.
In front of you is a stone bridge paved with stone slabs, less than a meter higher than the ground, and the four corners of the stone bridge are four white jade pillars carved with dragons and phoenixes, and the top of the pillars in the style of dragon heads.
The dragon had a fist-sized emerald in its mouth, and streams of water flowed from behind the gem down the white jade pillar, dripping into the shallow ditch below, forming a small stream.
The water is crystal clear, and the ripples of the water spread out along the stream under the stone bridge, and the pebbles inside the river bottom are clearly visible.
The most surprising thing is that a layer of white water floats on the creek, like boiling water meets cold air, forming a cloud around the creek that can only be found in fairyland.
After crossing the stone bridge, the first thing that catches your eye is several peach trees, the branches are incredibly full of blooming peach blossoms, pink and delicate, full of spring that can only be found in spring.
The peach blossoms in full bloom, combined with the warm temperature around them and the soft light shining overhead, suddenly make people feel like they are in the spring season.
"There is a hot spring here, and the rhizomes of the peach trees are rooted in the soil and absorb the hot springs to nourish the rhizomes, so the peach blossoms here bloom twice a year, and further inside, there are more peach trees and peach blossoms. Long Yun explained and continued to walk forward.
As if to confirm him, there was a peach tree a few meters away, and the branches were full of blooming peach blossoms, and walking below, the faint fragrance of flowers spread all over the nostrils.
Not only on the peach trees, but also on the ground, there are many peach blossoms, densely spread all over the ground, adding a different color to the black earth.
Walking a little further inside, a large pink tulle curtain stretched across the eyes, and through the thin layer of gauze, the figure could be seen swaying behind the curtain.
"These curtains are made of thousand-year-old silk, thin and soft, which can isolate internal and external sounds, and are rare treasures. Long Yun pointed to the curtain in front of him and said.
Long Zun nodded, he had also heard of thousand-year-old silk, weaving it into inner armor and wearing it on his body could reduce the damage of the mysterious force he received, but this was the first time he had seen thousand-year-old silk.
Such a large curtain in front of him could weave a lot of inner armor, but it was a pity that it was ruined by the master here who made it into a curtain, and Long Zun felt sorry in his heart.
Outside the curtain tent, as in front of the previous courtyard, stood two young girls in peach-colored clothes.
One of the two girls held a tray with a wooden stick on it, and the other girl, seeing Long Zun and them, picked up the wooden stick in the tray and lifted the curtain of the curtain, revealing a passage for a person to enter and exit.
Long Yun walked in first, and Long Zun followed closely behind and came inside.
Inside the curtain there were also peach trees in full bloom, and under each peach tree there was a stone table and several stone benches around it.
Some of the people were already sitting at the stone tables under some of the peach trees, and some of them saw Long Yun and Long Zun who had just entered the curtain and nodded with a smile, and Long Yun also smiled and nodded in response.
At this time, a young girl in a peach-colored dress came over and led Long Yun and Long Zun to a stone table under a peach tree and sat down.
Naturally, there was a young girl dressed in the same clothes on the side, giving wine and a few fruits.
The girl filled the wine glasses in front of Long Yun and Long Zun with wine, and then gently bowed and retreated, but did not go far, but retreated to a place near the edge of the curtain, and stood with the other peach-clothed girls standing there.
Long Zun didn't reach out to touch the wine glass on the stone table, but said, "Now you can say why you brought me here!"
Long Yun drained the wine in the wine glass, put down the wine glass and said, "Don't worry, it's a good thing for you, just wait a little longer." ”
Seeing that Long Yun was reluctant to speak, he didn't ask, he raised his head and glanced around the curtain, the people sitting under the peach trees were all young faces, and he basically couldn't see the old people.
At the far end of the curtain grew a peach tree with a thick branch, the trunk of which was several circles thicker than the others.
There was also a stone table next to it, and the fruit on the table had already been arranged, but no one was sitting there.
Outside the tent came intermittently, young men arrived, some in groups, others alone.
No matter who or how many people there were, the girl in pink would walk over and lead the young people to their seats under the peach tree, serving fruit and drink.
