Chapter 67: Cloud City Cloud Valley
With Lu Zhi'an's movements, Feng Chujiu stood up with strength.
"The prince's kindness, the minister will remember it!"
Feng Chujiu squeezed out a smile on his face, making himself look sincere.
But she is usually indifferent, and her expression looks a little stiff, but Lu Zhian doesn't care, she can laugh to show that she is sincerely grateful to herself.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Lu Zhian asked again:
"I heard that the little general triumphed and returned to Beijing to receive the reward, but why did he take a long detour from Cloud City?"
"The prince hasn't heard of it?"
Feng Chujiu looked at him as if it was strange, and seeing that Lu Zhi'an's eyebrows also revealed doubts, she pondered for a moment before she spoke:
"There's a place called Cloud Valley in Cloud City... Have you ever heard of it? ”
"Yungu, I've heard of it, but..."
Lu Zhian nodded slowly, and then looked at Xie Qingji on the side:
"I don't know the specifics."
"I'm afraid General Feng is talking about the opening of Cloud Valley in two days, right?"
Xie Qing was surprised, Lu Zhian obviously hoped that he could answer this question, Feng Chujiu heard him say, his eyes turned to him, and he replied simply: "Exactly." ”
"What's going on? Let's hear it. ”
Lu Zhian was a little interested, and wanted Xie Qingji to explain in detail.
Xie Qingji nodded, and told him what he knew:
"This cloud valley is surrounded by mountains, and for outsiders, the only entrance is on the top of the North Mountain.
If you want to enter the valley, you have to slide a rope all the way from the top of the mountain, so it is also a challenge for many ordinary people.
Then, there are usually disciples in the valley guarding the mountain, and it is difficult to get in, and there is a feeling of isolation. ”
"Then why is it suddenly open?"
Lu Zhian was puzzled, since he was isolated from the world, why did he suddenly let outsiders in?
"Five-year covenant."
Feng Chujiu said a few words lightly.
"A five-year covenant?" Chang Feng was also interested.
"Exactly."
This time it was Xie Qingji who answered:
"Every five years, the Cloud Valley opens, one is to recruit disciples, and the other is to divination.
It is said that a fortune teller appeared in the rivers and lakes a hundred years ago, and no one can find out where the gentleman came from.
The ability is almost extraordinary, as long as you have doubts in your heart, divination and a hexagram will definitely help you solve your doubts, or if you have a request, you can also calculate what will happen in the future.
The fortune teller no one knew whether it was a man or a woman, he always wore a black hat on his head, and he never spoke when he was telling his fortunes, but only wrote his answers on a blank piece of paper.
Everyone also looked at the gentleman's hand and appearance, and speculated that it might be a woman.
The people only knew that Mr. had calculated feng shui, selected a deep valley around the mountains of Cloud City, and established the Cloud Valley. ”
"Divination? Qingji, why have you never heard of it? ”
Lu Zhian squinted, as if thinking about something.
"You don't believe in ghosts and gods, I don't want to be bored, in your words, it's a waste of time."
Xie Qingji also smiled, his tone was frivolous, as if he wanted to say don't blame me.
"The general doesn't want to be a disciple, does he? In this way, the general is also confused? ”
Lu Zhian ignored Xie Qingji's joke on the side, and looked at Feng Chujiu.
"Exactly, the minister has confusion in his heart, since this cloud valley is known as the first valley to solve doubts, he must have some ability."
Feng Chujiu did not deny that he came to Cloud City for this purpose.
"This Cloud Valley, once every five years, the whole valley is full of women, open the door of Cloud Valley in five years, if you don't want to continue to be a disciple, you can go home.
Moreover, the disciples recruited must be virgins between the ages of nine and eleven.
But... It is said that there has never been an instance of a disciple withdrawing from Cloud Valley. ”
Xie Qingji seemed to remember something and added a few words.
"It's strange, only female disciples are accepted, and young virgins are required..."
Chang Feng silently complained on the side, just such a small sentence, Feng Chujiu still heard it, she didn't feel that it was troublesome to chat, and explained:
"The reason seems to be... Children between the ages of nine and eleven are already sensible, and the body of a child represents purity, so that the results of divination are accurate.
There is no man in the valley who is afraid that these little girls who are not deeply involved in the world will be trapped by love. ”
"I see..."Chang Feng nodded thoughtfully, as if he understood, and then clenched his fists and bowed slightly to Feng Chujiu:
"Thank you, General, for your doubts."
"Not necessarily."
Feng Chu Jiu nodded at him, and blocked it with his hand, signaling that he didn't have to care.
"Why should we be open to divination for the world?"
Mo Chen suddenly interjected, unable to understand.
"You're stupid, people have to eat."
Xie Qingji seemed to have heard some idiotic question, and couldn't help but raise his hand and knock Mo Chen's head with a fan.
Mo Chen searched his head, but he was depressed in his heart: I thought that Yungu had some agreement with the outside world, and he had to open it every five years, but it turned out to be just for dinner...
"However, the silver for divination is uncertain, and the Lord of Cloud Valley seems to have a rule, if it is a person who fits his eyes, he can be free, and the rest will be priced according to the degree of the problem.
So if your problem is complicated, remember to bring enough silver! ”
Xie Qingji stood beside Lu Zhian, talked about this, and then asked with a wicked smile:
"What do I think of the prince... Seems to have taken a keen interest in it? ”
"Whether it works or not, I just find it interesting, so why not try it?"
Lu Zhian raised his eyebrows, but he didn't deny it.
"Then the prince wants to go forward together?"
Feng Chujiu's suggestion made Lu Zhian feel surprised, the general seemed to have never invited anyone to go with her.
"Okay."
Lu Zhian did not shirk and nodded.
"The day after tomorrow is the day when Yungu is open, we can find an inn to live in today, and then set off to Yungu the morning after tomorrow, I have inquired about Yungu, not far away.
The prince's carriage can follow us, and we have arranged accommodation. ”
Feng Chujiu seemed to look behind Lu Zhi'an, and quickly withdrew it, and no one noticed that there was a little lightness in her tone.
After saying that, Feng Chu Jiu didn't talk nonsense, saluted Lu Zhi'an again, turned around and got on the horse, and rode slowly to the front of their carriage.
General Feng actually said so many words, and even took the initiative to invite them to live in an inn together.
Sitting in the carriage, Xie Qingji couldn't help but ask Lu Zhian:
"Zhi'an, why is this little general different from the rumors? The rumor doesn't mean that General Feng Xiao is reluctant to contact people, and he is very indifferent, why did he see him today...?! ”
"I don't think it's better to know a person's personality from other people's mouths, let alone never meet them."
Su Yange listened to his words, and also said a few words silently and gently, she knew why Feng Chujiu was so enthusiastic today, naturally she saw herself, it seemed that she recognized it, but Ah Chu didn't call herself directly, otherwise the atmosphere would be very embarrassing to explain.
"I thought it was a few beautiful men who were in charge and made General Feng look at him."
Xie Qingji understood what Su Yange meant and made a little joke.
"Forget it."
Lu Zhian looked at Xie Qingji with some ridicule and said:
"There is a shrewd military advisor in General Feng's military camp who has helped him win many beautiful battles.
This military advisor's name is Gu Qingqiu, but he is known as the first beautiful man in Yongxia, and his appearance is envied even when a woman sees him.
It is said that he is fed up with the treatment of being held by the stars, and he is willing to go to the barracks to endure hardships, how inspirational.
I don't believe it... You have never heard of this place that holds the first information of Yongxia. ”
"Gu Qingqiu, I remembered your mention, I thought that I could be favored by General Feng when I went to the barracks, but General Feng commented at first sight:
Femininity, no masculinity, don't. ”
Speaking of Gu Qingqiu, Xie Qingji seemed to think of something funny, and teased a few words:
"I don't know what kind of man General Feng likes."
Su Yange sat in the corner and listened to them discuss Ah Chu, and her thoughts couldn't help but drift away...
When I first met Feng Chujiu, it was also an oolong incident.
About four or five years ago, that year, the war was tight, and my father sent a lot of silver taels to the military camp, which solved General Feng's urgent need.
Because of his father, General Feng personally brought the little general to thank him, and when his father saw that Feng Chujiu was about the same age as himself, he proposed to let her go and play with him and make friends.
General Feng also thought that his father's conduct was good, and the children he taught were naturally honest and reliable, and agreed that General Feng Xiao would be his friend.
So the adults chatted in the main hall, and Feng Chujiu was taken to Su Yange's courtyard.
Feng Chujiu didn't want to go, after all, she hadn't made friends since she was a child, and she was raised by her father a little withdrawn, on the other hand, this kind of rich lady is not all pampered, and she doesn't know how pampered her temperament will be...
But because of his father's order, he had to calm his little face and let his subordinates take him to Su Yange's courtyard.
As soon as the little maid sent her to the door, she was hurriedly called away, leaving Feng Chujiu to hesitate at the gate of the courtyard for a long time.
Finally pushed the door in, entered the courtyard, but it seemed that there was no one in the courtyard, Feng Chu Jiu just wanted to open his mouth and shout, but the door facing his own room, that is, Su Yange's room, opened from the inside.
Out of the house came a young man of his own age, who was carrying a small burden, and seemed to creep out of the house, carefully closing the door.
It doesn't matter if you look at this, Feng Chujiu thought, this is the yard of the young lady, but a son came out of the house, who looked sneaky, and without thinking about it, he suddenly got angry, flew over and shouted:
"The Prodigal Son!"
Grabbed the little boy's shoulders and gave him an over-the-shoulder throw...
Then Feng Chujiu was about to raise his hand and punch it, but the little boy covered his face with his hand and shouted:
"Don't fight, don't fight! Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! ”
And then... The little boy took Feng Chu Jiu into the house, changed into women's clothes in front of her, and explained again...
Su Yange had just taken the people in the courtyard away, and at that time, she was also a disciple who had just started to learn medical skills, changed into men's clothes and was about to sneak out without being discovered, but was broken into the boudoir.
Feng Chujiu knew that this little boy turned out to be Su Yange, and he hurriedly apologized at the moment, but Su Yange smiled, didn't care about her, and said thank her, and hugged her unevenly.
Feng Chujiu obviously didn't expect that it was obvious that he didn't understand the situation and hurt her, but Su Yange didn't blame her, and he didn't have a pampered temper, and comforted himself in turn.
I have a good impression of her at the moment, Su Yange also likes to get along with Feng Chu Jiu, originally she didn't like to make friends with everyone, she felt that it was too troublesome to behave, and she still played with people with free and easy temperament.
The two hit it off and became friends, and General Feng, at Su Yange's request, also agreed that if Feng Chujiu returned to the capital, he could move freely and come to play with her.
