Chapter 80 Landscape Pastoral
It is the beginning of summer in May, and the white citrus blossoms and fiery red pomegranate flowers bloom all over the mountains, and the fragrance is overflowing. Su Yu, www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, arranged for his disciples to send coarse cloth short brown and linen yarn summer clothes to the expedition members, which were all made of cotton and flax grown by himself.
Lu Xiaofan and the expedition team members planted corn and sweet potatoes before the Dragon Boat Festival, and spent a lively Dragon Boat Festival with their brothers in the ancestral hall of the Shuiyue faction. Wrapping zongzi, racing dragon boats, embroidering sachets, and drinking realgar wine. Lu Xiaofan told everyone the story of the Legend of the White Snake, and said that this story was made into a drama in the mortal world, and it was also made into a movie and television. Zheng Dan proposed whether to build a movie theater in Lingyuntian in the future, and the other team members unanimously agreed. Chang Shan said with a smile: "I have heard that the world is a theater. Su Yu continued: "The Three Realms are all theaters. β
After the party, the night star pulled the landing fan to the Diexiang Creek to admire the moon, this is a stream that the two immortals are very fond of, and there are large tracts of mountain gardenias blooming by the stream. The night breeze is light, the moon is in the sky, the water is murmuring, and the summer insects are chirping. Lu Xiaofan and Night Star were on a stilted building by the stream, drinking thin wine in the moonlight.
"Little thing, if I die, will you go to find the Lingzhi Immortal Grass for me?" Nightstar asked as he touched the head of the small fan with the intention of drinking.
"I'm not going to show my form, and besides, am I that scary?" Lu Xiaofan said with a smile.
"There are still many battles to be fought in the future."
"We're not living a precarious life, don't think too much." Lu Xiaofan said softly.
"What if that day happens?" The night star looked at the distant mountains under the deep blue sky, and his eyes were a little misty.
"Don't talk nonsense, it won't."
"I mean just in case."
"With me here, I won't let you have this 'what if'!" Lu Xiaofan looked at the night star with burning eyes and held his hand.
Night Star smiled slightly and gently hugged Lu Xiaofan's shoulder.
Guardianship is mutual.

Soon after, the rice was ripe, and the expedition members joined in harvesting it. Concubine Sakura's peasant woman's outfit can't hide her prosperous appearance, she is a Sakura Concubine with a variety of styles, and any makeup will naturally reveal a variety of styles. Since knowing that Lu Xiaofan is her future daughter-in-law, Concubine Ying has taken care of Lu Xiaofan everywhere. When Lu Xiaofan first came, there were a lot of farm jobs that he couldn't do, and they were all taught by Concubine Ying. When threshing the grain, Concubine Ying suddenly asked Lu Xiaofan if he could sing, Lu Xiaofan thought about it, cleared his throat and sang: "Sing mountain songs, sing here and there." β
Concubine Ying then sang: "Mountain songs are like the water of the spring river, not afraid of dangers, there are many bends and bends. β
When the immortals on the threshing floor heard this, they followed suit. For a while, the song and the crackling sound of threshing resounded together, echoing in the mountains and rivers. In a trance, if it weren't for the two moons in the sky, Lu Xiaofan really thought that he had returned to the mortal world and lived a idyllic life in a paradise.
On this day, Huang Xiu brought some wedding cards, which turned out to be a disciple of the Theravada Department to marry and invite the same family to Moshang Village to drink wedding wine. When Concubine Sakura saw the wedding card, she suddenly remembered that June 21 was the birthday of the night star, and Concubine Sakura said that she must celebrate the night star to make up for the debt she owed him for more than 20 years. Lu Xiaofan silently remembered this day in his heart.
Crackling firecrackers, festive suona, children running around laughing and laughing. The bridegroom wore a big red wedding dress, rode a tall horse to pick up the bride from Sangma Village to Moshang Village, thirty-six dowries decorated with red silk were lined up in a long queue for several miles, the bride sat on a large red sedan chair by one by eight, and the children shouted around the sedan chair: "The bride and the bride race the clouds, quickly lift the hijab." The bride and bride are as beautiful as flowers, and the silly boy on the horse laughs haha! β
Lu Xiaofan saw Zheng Dan's yearning face, and said with a smile: "Zheng Dan, your brother Xiong will have to take a flying chariot to pick you up in the future, the arsenal is too far away from Xuandu." β
Zheng Dan smiled: "Won't I move to the arsenal?" β
"Throw yourself into the net, you? It's too cheap for Bear Er! β
"You know that I, you and the general might as well do the happy event here."
The wedding wine was set up for the dam feast, and more than 30 tables were placed. Sakura drank a few more drinks at the banquet, and on the way back, she sang a cheerful dance song in Spanish, sang and danced away. It was soon surrounded by the villagers and protΓ©gΓ©s of various factions. The crowd of onlookers clapped their hands and cheered. Seeing that Yexing was also in the crowd of onlookers, Concubine Sakura simply pulled him over, and the mother and son sang and danced together.
"Captain, have you ever seen the general dance?"
"No, you've seen it?"
"Never. I didn't expect the general to be so versatile. β
Lu Xiaofan looked at the night star, and admiration gradually bloomed in his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, the season of lotus picking has arrived. Concubine Sakura plans to make a lotus banquet for Night Star, and Night Star is very moved when she hears that her mother is going to celebrate her birthday, but she also asks Concubine Sakura not to make a big deal about it, just invite a few friends who know each other to get together and eat the noodles cooked by her mother. Lu Xiaofan, Zheng Dan and Huang Xiu picked lotus flowers, lotus seeds, lotus leaves, cucumbers, loofahs, beans and wild vegetables in the mountains, and made some light and delicious side dishes together. Concubine Ying personally made a bowl of Yangchun longevity noodles for Yexing.
Before the banquet, Su Yu suddenly came, and a table of people hurriedly got up to greet him.
Su Yu told everyone not to be so polite, he came this time because he had a gift for the night star. As he spoke, he took a scroll and handed it to Nightstar, who unfolded the scroll, and a blue starry sky appeared above the scroll.
"Mirror Tianshan River Map?!" Concubine Sakura was pleasantly surprised.
Su Yu nodded: "The prince is about to go to Yuguangtian next year, and this map of the Mirror Tianshan River is the map of Lingyuntian, and it is already closer to the boundary of Lingyuntian from the Taixu Realm." Su Yu pointed to several flowing vortices at the edge of the light and shadow map and said, "This is the ladder to Yu Guangtian." Although its position is not fixed, it moves with a certain pattern. I asked you to stay here for a while, firstly, to impart knowledge of ancient China to you, and secondly, to draw this map for you. β
Yexing was overjoyed and said to Su Yu: "This gift is too precious, and on behalf of Xuandu, I thank Master Su for his hospitality." β
"The prince doesn't have to be polite, this is what I should do." Su Yu thought for a while and said, "If you see Xiao'er, please let him go home more often." β
A small banquet, the guests and hosts are happy.
After sending Su Yu, Zheng Dan, and Huang Xiu away, Lu Xiaofan whispered to Yexing: "I also have a gift for the general." As he spoke, he took out a quaint wooden box from his storage belt.
Curious, Nightstar opens the box and discovers that it is a delicate set of pocket weapons. Although each piece is small, it is meticulously crafted and not sloppy at all.
"...... this?"
"Eighteen weapons you want." Lu Xiaofan covered his mouth and smiled.
Night Star grinned, rubbed Lu Xiaofan's hair and said, "What a cunning little thing, vainly trying to exchange this toy for my great rivers and mountains." β
When Concubine Sakura heard this, she came over without hesitation: "Yo, it's really thoughtful, even my grandson's toys are ready." β
Seeing Lu Xiaofan's embarrassment, Night Star hurriedly said, "When did you make these things?" β
"A month ago, I found out that there was a blacksmith shop at the head of Baiding Village, and it happened that the blacksmith was a relative of Huang Xiu. I thought that I would be idle every night anyway, and that my blacksmithing skills would be rusty if I didn't use them for a long time, so I did this. Later, I went to Yuge Village and found a carpenter to make a box. β
"I have a heart." Night Star held the box and looked at Lu Xiaofan deeply, his heart overflowing with sweetness.
Concubine Ying looked at the night star, then at Lu Xiaofan, and said with a smile: "Xing'er, usually at this time, you should hug her." β
Instead, Night Star blushed and shouted embarrassedly: "Mother! β
Concubine Sakura stepped forward and hugged the two children: "Bless you!" β
β¦β¦
From spring to autumn, from winter to summer. The expedition members of Xuandu worked at sunrise and sunset in the Taixu Holy Realm, combining work and rest, full of vitality. While working and studying, I fully experienced the ancient Chinese people's calm and calm lifestyle, and learned all kinds of knowledge about nature, the universe and the Great Dao, and the body and mind were nourished like never before. No longer anxious, no longer obsessed with gains and losses, no longer obsessed with the distinction between others and me.
After blowing the cool breeze of autumn, enjoying the snow of winter, picking the flowers of spring, and enjoying the summer night and moon season again, Su Yu told the night star that he could go back.
Su Yu personally sent Night Star and the expedition members to the port of entry and exit of the Taixu Realm, and said to the Night Star: "Although you are not in this Taixu Realm and are not ready to practice diligently, the racial characteristics of Ancient Huaxia have been awakened, and you will be able to deal with it calmly when you encounter the Heavenly Demon in the future. The avenue is omnipresent, looking up is to observe the sky, and looking down is to observe the law on the ground. There are answers to all questions, but not all questions need answers, and many questions don't become problems. β
"Thank you for your advice, the night star will be remembered."
"You're welcome, take care, prince." Su Yu said goodbye.
β¦β¦
Concubine Sakura left the heavenly chariot in the Taixu Realm and returned to Xuandu together on the expeditionary battleship of the Night Star.
After entering the jurisdiction of Xuandu and talking to Xuandu with a psionic communication device, Emperor Xuan personally joined Lin Xuan and took a flying battleship to the Ethereal Realm to greet him.
As expected by the night star, Emperor Xuan really came to Concubine Ying. After seeing Concubine Ying, Emperor Xuan completely disregarded his identity and system, and did not let go of Concubine Ying's hand, crying and laughing for a while. Concubine Ying was also not afraid of the eyes around her, and hugged Emperor Xuan and cried. The two stick together everywhere they go, like a couple in love. When the immortals saw this, they all found excuses to deliberately avoid it.
"Your father and mother are both temperamental." Lu Xiaofan appreciated the authenticity.
"Me too." Night Star said, and wrapped Lu Xiaofan in his arms, "Let's get married when we go back, okay?" β
"Not good."
"Why?"
"Your bride price hasn't been prepared yet, and the boundary monument hasn't been placed in every corner of Lingyuntian." Lu Xiaofan said with a smile.
Night Star pinched Lu Xiaofan's chin with one hand: "My father used to always say that I opened a black shop, but now this black shop will be given to you." β
"You look down on me." Lu Xiaofan raised his head and smiled slyly: "How can one room be enough?" I'm going to open a chain of black stores every day. β
"Yes." Nightstar laughed.
β¦β¦
When I returned to Xuandu, I found that a large commercial area had opened up outside the Xuandu Palace, and various shops and markets had been opened, which was very lively.
After returning to the barracks and handing over the task, and after reporting the results of the expedition, Lu Xiaofan went to visit his mother.
Mom said that "Grandma's Little Canteen" came up and opened a semicolon, and the stage was also set up in the commercial area.
Lu Xiaofan said in surprise: "Are your grandparents here too?" β
"Well, here we are. Dudu and Xiaoqiang also came. Mom said happily.
Yexing returned to the palace, then came to the barracks to find Lu Xiaofan, and said to her: "I heard that your restaurant has opened a branch, and my father and father have gone to try it." Let's go, let's see. As he spoke, he picked up Lu Xiaofan and ran to the business district.
When I arrived at my grandmother's cafeteria, I didn't see my grandparents, Lu Xiaofan was slightly disappointed, and Granny Hua came out and said, "Xiaofan is back?" Your grandparents went to the theater. β
"Oh? What are you playing today? β
"Standing on the ground and sealing the gods."
"New play?"
"That's right, new play."
"Is "Praise and Return to Immortals" still acting?"
"Of course, this drama is the signature drama of our theater. Ling Yuntian's theater, there are many plays every day, and there are a lot of immortals to watch. There is a schedule of repertoire on the signboard at the door, so go check it out. β
β¦β¦
Lu Xiaofan then went to visit Jiang Tong with gifts from all walks of life, and learned that Linxuan had been named the king of Anyun County, and the business district of Xuandu was developed by Linxuan. Jiang Tong has married Lin Xuan and was canonized as the princess of Anyun County. Lu Xiaofan was very happy that Sister Tong was finally with her sweetheart.
Emperor Xuan canonized Concubine Ying as the queen, and the whole world celebrated for seven days and seven nights. After more than a month of the days of the two immortal worlds, he summoned the night star into the palace.
Emperor Xuan looked back on the journey told by the night star and Concubine Ying, as well as the transcendent life outside the Taixu Realm, and sighed: "There are hundreds of flowers in spring, there is a moon in summer, there is a cool breeze in autumn and snow in winter. If there is nothing to worry about, it is a good time in the world. Very good, very good, when will Xing'er let me have nothing to worry about? β
Yexing said with a smile: "Father, you hold on a little longer, and when I return from Yu Guangtian's victory, I will let you and your mother go to the Taixu Realm to live a leisurely life of male cultivation and female weaving." β
"When are you going to leave?" Take a break, it's been less than three months since I've been back. β
"Wait for the elders to transform the hive communication of the battleship and integrate the mirror Tianshan River map into the navigation system of the battleship, and then set off."
I said...... Why don't you canonize the little fan first? β
"There's no need to rush for a while, we are heart-to-heart, and the name is not important."
"You can't say that, the man in charge should give his loved one a name."
"Since my father said so, then please give an edict."
