Day and night, they finally arrived in Liuzhou after ten days.

Compared with the peaceful and wealthy Ping'an County, Liuzhou first fell into inferiority, because there are many mountains and roads here, and it is a little far away from the royal capital, so the folk customs here are not so civilized, and the county town is naturally not so prosperous.

And Chu Liuxiang's friend prefers to live in such a secluded place.

"My friend's name is Shen Rushan, and I have been friends with me, he has a slightly eccentric temper and doesn't like to be lively, so he bought a house in the suburbs of Liuzhou to live in, with his little daughter." Chu Liuxiang said to Ye Changsheng about his friend in detail, "He was also a hero when he was young, and now that he is older, although he lives in seclusion in this place, he is still a little famous in the rivers and lakes." ”

"He has a lot of friends and a lot of connections, and many people will come to him to inquire about the news."

Ye Changsheng sat in his arms, looking at the mountains or trees around him, but the two of them were still able to walk briskly with the big white carrying.

"Does he really know where Pingzhou is?"

"Brother Shen has seen a lot of knowledge and has many friends, so he should know about it?" Chu Liuxiang replied with a slight hesitation, "It's just ......" He stopped suddenly halfway through.

"Just what?" Ye Changsheng saw that he didn't say anything, and then asked.

Chu Liuxiang sighed, "Brother Shen's temperament is a little ...... That's it, you'll know when you see it. ”

Shen Rushan's house is located in the depths of a large peach blossom forest, although it is now early autumn and late summer, but this peach blossom is still abnormally blooming, and the branches and leaves are lush and colorful.

Ye Changsheng had never seen such a beautiful peach blossom even in the palace, and couldn't help but marvel several times.

"The peach blossoms here are carefully cultivated by Brother Shen himself, and they are watered with special medicines, so they can bloom all year round." Chu Liuxiang said, "If Changsheng likes it, I can go and ask Brother Shen for a few for you." ”

"No, I won't raise this, I'll spoil such a beautiful flower." Ye Changsheng said with a smile.

Chu Liuxiang hugged him and dismounted, and Da Bai himself ran to a place not far away to spread joy, and Ye Changsheng followed Chu Liuxiang to the gate.

The gate of the Shen family is very large, but there is no stone statue of Rui Beast in front of the door, and there is no door knocker, except for the two words Shen Mansion written on the plaque, there is no decoration at all.

Chu Liuxiang walked over and directly pushed open the door and pulled him in, not even seeing a doorman.

In the yard, the small bridge, flowing water, green bamboo, surrounded by hundreds of flowers, are full of birds singing and flowing water, and even many flowers are out of season.

Ye Changsheng was a little envious of people who could live in such a place that seemed to be a paradise.

"I didn't expect Xiang Shuai to have an uninvited day." ”

As soon as they reached the middle courtyard, a slightly vicissitudes of voice sounded. Ye Changsheng raised his head curiously and looked around, but no one saw him.

"Yes, Chu Liuxiang is a thief, and a thief will never greet him all the time." Chu Liuxiang replied calmly, but with a pair of hands, he patted Ye Changsheng, who was a little nervous, comfortingly.

The man laughed, Ye Changsheng didn't even see what was going on, and suddenly another person came out in front of him.

The man was full of silver hair, dressed in a green shirt, and holding a jade Xiao in his hand, looking handsome and handsome, like an immortal.

He turned around slowly, Ye Changsheng looked at him secretly, looking at his same snow-white beard, his heart was itching, and he couldn't help but want to reach out and touch it.

Shen Rushan glanced at Ye Changsheng lightly, "When did Xiangshuai have a little more guy." ”

Chu Liuxiang smiled slightly: "Since Brother Shen has already guessed, why bother me like this." ”

"Hmph." Shen Rushan flicked his sleeves, stepped lightly on his feet, and the whole person flew out, and there was no figure in the blink of an eye.

Chu Liuxiang hugged Ye Changsheng over and followed, he had been used to being hugged like this for more than a month, Ye Changsheng consciously wrapped his hands around his neck.

Shen Rushan stopped in a small pavilion with some tender bamboo forests, and Chu Liuxiang walked in with Ye Changsheng.

As if knowing in advance that someone was coming, the small stone table in the pavilion was already full of melons, fruits, snacks and wine.

"No matter what you want to ask me, I won't answer you today, unless Xiang Shuai can drink with me for a day." Shen Rushan sat at the table, poured himself a glass of wine and said.

"If you can really find out the news I want to know, don't say a day's wine, even ten days Chu is willing to accompany you." Chu Liuxiang also sat down at the table.

Ye Changsheng stared at the dim sum on the table and kept peeking, it was all things he had never seen before, and the color was beautiful and looked particularly delicious.

His small movements naturally couldn't hide from Chu Liuxiang, who took a small cake from the plate on the table and stuffed it into his hand, gently

said: "This is a peach blossom cake, made by Brother Shen himself, it is different from those outside, you can taste it." ”

Ye Changsheng carefully held the peach blossom cake and took a bite carefully, his mouth was full of sweet fragrance, which was indeed different from what he ate outside.

Seeing that he was squinting and eating happily, Chu Liuxiang stuffed the remaining plate into Ye Changsheng's arms, and then whispered: "Changsheng can play by himself for a while, Brother Chu has something to talk to this friend." ”

Ye Changsheng sensibly hugged the plate and nodded, and obediently ran out of the small pavilion with the peach blossom cake he liked.
