Chapter 3: Deep in the Peach Forest

The peach grove halfway up the mountain is the most famous place for flower viewing and leisure in Xiangji Temple, and the men and women who are incense on the incense come together during the day, and they are quite romantic under the peach tree.

The peach blossoms here not only bloom for a long time, but also last almost all summer, and it is said that they are blessed by the Koji Temple, and each peach tree lasts almost until the mouth of the bowl is thick because it grows halfway up the mountain for many years.

However, the peach grove of Xiangji Temple is a forbidden place at night.

Legend has it that there are always ghosts and fires crying, and there was once a noble young master, because he didn't believe this rumor, so he entered the peach grove around midnight and never came out again.

Because he was a noble young master and there were people in the court, the court also sent people to search for a long time, but there were not even any stumps and bones.

Since then, no one dares to set foot in the peach blossom forest at night. Even during the day, it is only open for half a day, but it gives those incense men and women a little more mystery, but because of this relationship, it becomes more and more legendary.

At this time, it was a moonlit and windy night. The two sides of the fight seem to have reached their limits on each other.

Because the firefighting here was in full swing, no one noticed that the peach blossom forest not far away was already bloody.

Li Changqing didn't go far, but just took Qinglian to the peach blossom forest to relax, and the reborn body was not as good as before, but it was also handy.

"Miss, are you really going to the Peach Blossom Forest?" Qinglian asked a little timidly.

"Hmm."

"But it'...... haunted."

"Only there is clean." Li Changqing responded lightly.

"Then ......, Miss ......," Qinglian said, and rushed to the front of Li Changqing, "The slave maid will open the way for Miss." ”

Although he shrunk his body, he still walked forward with trepidation, and willingly led the way for his young lady.

"Ghosts, in their hearts, sometimes, people are not afraid of ghosts, but all kinds of troubles in their hearts." Li Changqing said lightly, remembering all kinds of previous lives, suddenly sneered, and now, judging from the fire in Xiangji Temple, it was only just after the twelfth birthday of that year, when the old lady brought her and Li Changxin's mother and daughter here to pray for God and worship Buddha.

It's just that time, she was indeed almost pushed into the sea of fire by Li Changxin and Bilu, fortunately Qinglian appeared early, saving her from a coma, but she also fell ill, because of excessive smoke inhalation, every early summer, there was asthma, and in the eight years that she later became the queen, she became more and more strict in summer, and even vomited blood.

However, later on this matter, she didn't think it was Li Changxin's fault whether she was alive or dead, just because she believed too much in the then aunt Wang Ruzhen and Li Changxin's mother and daughter, she actually listened to the words of the cheap maid Bilu, so as to punish Qinglian, and let Wang Ruzhen's mother and daughter slap Qinglian's mouth, so that Qinglian's jaw was dislocated, and it was not treated in time, so that for a long time later, Qinglian had to drink some soup and food such as gruel, even if it got better later, her chin was a little crooked, but even so, Qinglian never hated her, On the contrary, she was willing to suffer from being polluted for her sake.

Li Changqing looked at the thin, shrunken body in front of him, and a trace of guilt arose in his heart.

Silently in my heart, Qinglian, Bilu is dead, the mistakes of the previous life, I will make up for you in this life. Li Changqing bit his lip and clenched his hands.

At this moment, although it is summer, it is still a little cold on the mountain after all, and Li Changqing has just experienced such a scene, and his body bones are still unbearable, and when the wind blows, with an eerie and cold air, he can't help but tighten his clothes.

"Qinglian, I'll go over there alone for a while, you go and tell the old lady, just say that Bilu is dead, by the way, take a look at the situation over there, find a room and I'll go back and rest for a while."

"But, miss, aren't you afraid of this black light alone?" Qinglian stopped, turned around and looked at her young lady worriedly.

"A living person, still afraid of ghosts, hurry up to do what I explained, I only brought you here, only I can rest assured if you do something."

"Miss......." Qinglian was moved to cry, Miss trusted her so much, she pursed her lips, and immediately put away the tears that were about to fall, and she couldn't care about it, so she wiped her eyes with her sleeve, and said with a smile: "The slave will do it, Miss should be careful, the slave and the maid will come to find Miss as soon as she finishes it." ”

"Okay, go ahead...... but stay with the old lady for now, and I'll go back by myself later." Li Changqing nodded, looked at this girl with a happy look on her face, and didn't say anything.

"Mm-hmm, miss, the slave is gone." After speaking, he didn't have time for Li Changqing to reply, so he ran away.

When Qinglian walked away, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in Li Changqing's eyes, but there was a hint of playfulness in his clear eyes, and he didn't stop, and immediately walked towards the depths of the peach blossom forest.

If it is said that she is reborn, this hearing is more and more acute, as early as when she entered the peach blossom forest 100 meters, she heard the faint sound of fighting inside. Recalling all kinds of previous lives, from the second day of the imperial court, someone was sent to seal the peach blossom forest, it is said that there was a murder, etc., specifically, because it had nothing to do with her at the time, I didn't pay much attention to it, plus she was unconscious in the fire at the time, and she woke up after being in a coma for five days.

Thinking about it now, something big must have happened at that time, otherwise, how could the later emperor Xuanyuan Jing be ill, sick for three years, and finally died of depression, but these are all things that she became the queen and inadvertently occasionally glimpsed from the secret history of the royal family.

If there was no death case in Peach Blossom Forest at that time, Xuanyuan Jing would not have been sick, and he would not have died early, let alone Xuanyuan Chu would have ascended to the throne as soon as possible.

Li Changqing thought about this, and secretly thought that at such a good time, how could he do his own hard work without probing?

Footsteps walked in steadily, gently following the sound of the fight and quietly approaching.

By the moonlight, Li Changqing saw two groups of people, one black and one white.

Looking at the ground, there were more than a dozen black-clothed corpses lying horizontally, plus those who were being killed, there were more than fifty people.

And there are fewer people in white, only about three or four, obviously at a disadvantage, but they swung their swords fiercely, and the sword stabbed the people in black to the point.

The man in black could not get close to the man in white, so he attacked him with an arrow.

The fight scene was extremely chaotic, if it weren't for Li Changqing's keen vision and quick identification, he wouldn't have made a decision so quickly!

Although the man in black is a killer move, even if he attacks him with arrows, he is still at a disadvantage.

Li Changqing couldn't help but admire the three or four people, so he didn't prepare to leave, so he leaned against the tree and watched quietly, and the three of them obviously protected an unconscious person in the center, taking the circle as the standard, to resist the siege and sharp arrows from all directions.

After another while, almost all the people in black had been killed, until the people in white were exhausted and looked at the insiders, but no one noticed that Li Changqing was quietly touching behind them, picking up an arrow, and preparing to take it back to see who it was?

However, as she picked up the arrow, her brows furrowed, her eyes narrowed unconsciously, and under the reflection of the moonlight, she clearly saw that something flashed directly opposite.

"Be careful!" Li Changqing was so shocked that he couldn't stop it, so he could only shout, and then habitually pulled out the tail of the arrow and shot straight over.

A "whoosh" sound, accompanied by the soft moonlight, fell to the ground......
