Li Chenyu quickly returned, joined Ji Bai, and walked back together. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

A fire burned slowly, and from time to time firewood was added to the fire, and above the tongue of fire was a chicken, and the other two were likewise on top of it.

After roasting for a long time, it was finally cooked, and they were placed on the large leaves spread on the stone, and Song Ting took out a few bags of things from his purse, which were salt and crushed peppercorns.

There are a total of five chickens, Li Chenyu alone accounted for one and a half, and the other half was only given by Ji Bai, saying that he couldn't eat them all.

After eating and drinking enough, and resting for a while, he made torches out of dry wood again for this moonlight.

After walking through the mountains and mountains in the middle of the night, a few people stopped when they approached a Zhuangzi.

"That's another Shizhuang," Ji Bai looked at it and made a judgment.

A few people rested on the spot, waiting for dawn to go to Beishizhuang.

Although it is close to summer, the night before dawn is the darkest and the coldest time, and you don't feel it when you walk at this time, but you feel cold when you sit down.

I can't do it, I have to endure the cold.

A fire was lit, and several people sat around and gossiped softly.

Li Chenyu didn't participate in it, lying on his back on the branch of a towering tree, closing his eyes and resting.

The darkness was dispelled by rays and rays of sunlight, and when the sky was faintly bright, a middle-aged man walked over.

He bowed and said, "The small one's name is Yiqing, this other Zhuangzi, my master Tao Gong, please please come to the village, only to find out at this time, it is really rude." ”

When he said this, he bowed to the end again.

Ji Bai said: "It's just that I don't know who Tao Gong is?" ”

There is almost no need to guess how the people in the other village know that they are looking for people, there are villages in this vicinity, dozens of miles away, and when they go to the north, they go out of the Jinling territory and come through the mountains, except to find other villages, it will not be anything else.

Yiqing stood respectfully with his head down, half-lowered his eyelids, and said, "Tao Gong is the owner of Beishizhuang." ”

Just one sentence, refusing to say more.

Ji Bai asked again: "Do you know that Doctor Zhou is still in Beishizhuang at this time?" ”

He replied: "Yes, I went up the mountain four days ago, and I come at this time every year, and I will only leave after half a month." Ladies and gentlemen, please. ”

Ji Bai motioned to wash the inkstone, and the wash inkstone walked to Yiqing's side, and Sai gave him a piece of silver cake.

As soon as he cleared the money, he didn't look at it, just nodded, and walked ahead to lead the way.

The more they walked, the smoother the road became, and several people quickly entered the gate of Don't Zhuang.

As soon as you enter the door, there are three large rooms, and when you enter the room, there are three bright rooms that are opened, and on the far left is a brick kang that occupies the length of a wall. On the far right was an open field, and a manservant was leading his horse, bowing to the crowd, and then leading the horse through a round gate.

Walk straight over, pass a door, is a nine-curved corridor, left and right are water, the water is low, the aquatic plants are swinging their waists, the big fish with black backs and white bellies, swinging their bodies, and they will burrow into the aquatic plants in a flash.

A woman wearing a light blue gown and a horse-faced skirt of the same color greeted her, looking at her facial features, she was just a mean posture, but the style of the whole body was elegant and quiet, and the skirt did not move between walking.

The voice is as tactful as a yellow warbler, beautiful, and said: "The little woman's surname is Tao, her name is Yu Niang, this Zhuangzi is the residence of my father, the distinguished guest is coming, the little woman came on behalf of my father, there is a long way to welcome, and I hope not to blame." As he spoke, he bowed his knees again.

Ji Bai took the lead, and several people followed to return the salute, Li Chen's words were not ambiguous, he bowed his hand in a proper manner, bent down slightly, and bowed.

Tao Yuniang involuntarily glanced at Ji Bai's face. The face is like a white crown, with long eyebrows and sideburns, a pair of phoenix eyes are narrow and long, sharp and angular, and the figure is long, but how is this dress torn.

glanced at Ji Bai's armpit again, wondering if he had encountered some fierce beast when he was in the woods.

Thinking of this, he smiled lightly and said, "Was the road smooth when you came?" There are many fierce beasts in the forest, although they do not often hurt people, but they should not be frightened when they encounter them. ”

Ji Bai took a step after Yu Niang, and said: "I did meet a tiger, fortunately, I didn't hurt anyone, although I climbed the mountains and waded through the water, it was quite smooth, that is," after a pause, Ji Bai raised his arm to look at his armpit, stood and shook his head, "It's this disheveled, it's inevitable to be rude." ”

Tao Yuniang turned her head slightly, her eyes wandered, she covered her mouth and smiled, and said: "Son, don't worry too much, you have traveled all the way, and you have met a tiger, and there is no head to break the blood, which is very surprising, but you have damaged your clothes, it is nothing, it can be seen that you have martial arts." ”

Ji Bai nodded and said, "My family members still have some martial arts, and the journey has been quite smooth." ”

Tao Yuniang led through the Jiuqu corridor, turned a corner, passed another door, and entered the West Flower Hall.

The left and right sides of the flower hall are separated by red lacquer carved doors, and these two circle chairs are placed on both sides of a table of eight immortals in front of them, and a picture of eight immortals is hung on the wall, and the first two chairs are lower.

They each sat down on the next chair, and Xi Yan and the others were also behind them, sitting on a slightly lower stool, this is the master is the master, the servant is the servant, if it is not for the mountains and rivers, they will not sit down and rest.

The two maids with clear eyebrows each served tea on a tray, and Tao Yuniang said, "Everyone sit down, my father is here." ”

After speaking, he curtsied and went out.

Li Chenyu picked up the teacup, and the pale green tea was already fragrant when it was served on the table. I took a sip, I felt that it was refreshing, swallowed my throat, and felt that it was clear to my stomach, and the root of my tongue turned up left and right, fragrant and sweet, and I drank two sips in a row, and the teacup bottomed out.

looked at Ji Bai, "What kind of tea is this?" It's fragrant and sweet, and it's delicious. ”

Ji Bai also drank the tea in two sips, lifted the teapot and poured another cup for Li Chenyu, and said, "I can't drink what kind of tea it is, it's the first time I've drunk such tea, it really has a different taste." ”

After tasting this tea, two people walked in outside the door, Ji Bai and the others quickly stood up, bowed their hands, and said, "In Jinling, the fifth elder of the Ji family, Ji Bai, I have seen two." ”

The first one to come in was Tao Zilong, the owner of the village, he also gave a salute and said: "It turned out to be Ji Wuye, I have heard the name of your mansion for a long time, and the distinguished guests are coming, and they are not welcomed, don't blame, don't blame." ”

He also said: "The surname is Tao, the word Zilong, this surname is Zhou, and the word is Rui." ”

Ji Bai bowed down again, "I came to disturb rashly, and even offered a letter of worship, which is really rude, and I can't even deserve Tao Lao's voice Ji Wuye, in the next word Yunchuan, calling Yunchuan is, I didn't send a worship post in advance, Tao Lao forgave me, and asked Doctor Zhou to forgive me." ”

With a snort, Zhou Renrui walked by with his hands behind his back and without squinting, sat on the upper seat, picked up the teacup, and didn't look at everyone.

"Haha," Tao Zilong stroked his beard and laughed, "Don't blame Yunchuan, Zhou Lao is so temperamental." ”

Ji Bai bowed to the end towards the arrogant people in the upper seat, "I have seen Doctor Zhou below, and I hope that Doctor Zhou will not blame, it is too rash to be below." ”
