Chapter 51: Strange Flowers

Guo Poyu said: "Regarding the matter of flowers, Senior Brother Xue asked me, but he asked the right question. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe little brother is a layman, not a lover of flowers. But God is fortunate to be able to grow up with a girl with a blue heart, and occasionally dabbling in this flower arrangement. The so-called sense of begonia, pear blossom resentment, plum blossom arrogance, chrysanthemum hidden. The lotus flower is noble, the orchid is elegant, and the peony is rich. The shape of flowers is different, and the metaphor of flowers has its own profound meaning. Our two great magic skills of Peach Blossom Island, "Peach Flower Falling Palm" and "Orchid Whisk Acupoint Hand" are all my grandfather, and I realized from the flowers that in the flower room downstairs of this "Jade Pot House", there are also seven kinds of flowers that are related to our Peach Blossom Island, Senior Brother Xue tried to guess, but what is it? ”

Xue Jingtong said with a smile, this is not difficult for me: "On Chinese New Year's Eve this year, Master specially passed on my method of planting black cypress flowers, and when I left Dasheng Pass, it coincided with the flowering period, so I picked a few and wanted to give them to my sister." As he spoke, he took out a crushed flower from his bosom.

Zhu San saw it and said curiously: "The black cypress flower is either purple or yellow, how can this Wu cypress flower have these two colors at the same time, and there is a white line in the middle." ”

Guo Poyu said: "I once heard the second sister Guo Xiang say this, she said that this year my grandfather and our ancestor Lao Dongxie had a whim, and specially wrote the planting method of the nine strange flowers used to prepare the "Nine Flowers Jade Dew Pill", and ordered someone to bring it to my mother, so that she could teach the disciples of the nine grandchildren designated by him. The flower planted by Brother Xue is one of them, and it is said to be a different species cultivated by Huang Laoxi. On Peach Blossom Island, there is another name called "Liangwang Flower", the world does not know, see this flower resembles a black cypress flower, it has been called by black cypress flower. In fact, you see that there is a white line between the two colors of this flower, which is not the same as the scenery of the two forgotten peaks of our Peach Blossom Island. ”

Although none of the five people here have been to Peach Blossom Island, Huang Yaoshi is good at Danqing painting, in Xiangyang Guo Mansion and Dashengguan Lujiazhuang, there are many painting shafts of Danqing painting the scenery of Peach Blossom Island, and the scenery of these two forgotten peaks Guo, Zhu, and Xue are all familiar with each other since childhood, and they nodded at the same time.

Zhu San said: "A few years ago, my master passed on my "Aster Flower" planting method, I thought that I was the only one who passed it on, but it turned out that you have all been taught. ”

Guo Poyu said: "Yes, when my mother personally passed on the planting method of "Bi Fanglan" on the fifteenth day of the first month of this year, I also asked her. At that time, I said that the planting method of nine kinds of flowers was given to nine people, wouldn't it be troublesome, only three of our senior brothers were good at planting flowers, why didn't my grandfather designate him to pass on one person, so as to avoid the pain of the children moving pots and soil. At that time, my mother sighed and said, I guess that your grandfather's arrangement is actually all for the good of your third senior brother. ”

Xue Jingtong said: "What is this for?" ”

Zhu San said: "Brother Xue, don't pay attention to him, he has no good words, he must be telling me a nonsense story." ”

Guo Poyu said: "This matter involves the old affairs of our Middle Earth Martial Arts and Dali Kingdom, but it can't be said to be a pastime. The seventh generation of Qiao Feng of my beggar gang has a sworn brother, who is the later monarch of Dali Kingdom, Emperor Xuanren Emperor Duan Yu, everyone knows it. ”

Xue Jingtong and the other three nodded together, saying that the first emperor of his country, Zhu San naturally knew, and he also nodded and listened quietly at the moment.

Guo Poyu continued: "When Emperor Xuanren was young, he could be said to be suave and suave, both civil and military. Not only is he proficient in the Northern Shengong of the Xiaoyao School, but he also knows all the poetry and songs, and he also has a stunt that ordinary martial arts heroes can't do - he is good at planting precious camellias. It was with this incident as a medium that Duan Gongzi later came to Jiangnan to meet Wang Yuyan, the princess of Mantuo, and since then he has always been obsessed and drunk. He didn't do it as a prince, and he relied on the soil and planted flowers in Wang Mushroom's house all day long. It can be said that the hero is short of breath, and the love of children is long.

Recalling this past that day, my mother couldn't help but worry, she said at that time that Duan Shizi could only plant camellias, and she was already in love for the long and the short, and she was haggard for love. If you let your third senior brother learn the planting method of the nine strange flowers on Peach Blossom Island, then you won't love all day long, sad spring and autumn, see flowers and tears, and write poems to the moon. It's a pity that your father and I spent countless efforts to teach the apprentice, and since then we have fallen into love and have no heroic ambitions. So, your grandfather and his old man really have nothing to do, and it is really appropriate to only pass on his "aster flower" blind planting method, and I can't pass on the planting method of a flower. ”

Before he could finish speaking, Xue Jingtong and the three of them all laughed. Hao Shuangyan said with a smile: "Brother Po Xian doesn't talk about storytelling, it's really condescending." ”

Zhu San turned around and walked towards the road of Guo Jing's study. Guo Poyu hurriedly chased after him and grabbed him, and said with a smile: "Where is Senior Brother going?" ”

Zhu Sandao: "The master is in the master's study, I'll go and ask, what the master said just now?" Or did Master Zu say it? ”

Guo Poyu said with a smile: "Didn't Senior Brother just say that everything was made up by the younger brother." Hee Hee (*^__^*) Hee Hee ......"

While the two brothers were fighting, Guo An, the family member of the Guo Mansion, came over and reported that dinner had been prepared in the flower hall, and the lady ordered the brothers and sons to sit down quickly. When the five of them heard it, they talked and laughed all the way to the Guofu Flower Hall. Passing through the two moon gates, Xue Jingtong asked Zhu San, who was walking side by side: "We talked about a lot of flowers just now, have you ever been to the "Splendid Garden" in Xiangyang?" ”

Zhu Sandao: "The garden of Xue Hanlin's family in Xiangyang, "Splendid Garden", is the first scenic place in Xiangyang, who doesn't know in Xiangyang? Guo Poyu, who was walking in front, thought: "I don't know." ”

Zhu San said: "Dare to ask if Xue Hanlin's family is in the Honorable Brother's Mansion?" ”

Xue Jingtong said: "It's the foolish uncle's house." I have been studying martial arts in Dashengguan for five years, and I have not been able to visit my uncle, so I dare to work hard tomorrow and lead me forward. ”

Zhu San said: "The little brother's legs and feet are inconvenient, so it's good to take Brother Xue tomorrow." ”

Guo Poyu just wanted to say: "I don't know." Xue Jingtong had already bowed his hand to him and said, "Then there is a virtuous brother who is Lao Poyu." ”

Guo Poyu was not easy to refuse, so he agreed casually at the moment. I thought: The second sister knows everything in Xiangyang City, and I went to ask her after dinner.

The group came to the flower hall, and Guo Jing, Huang Rong and others had already taken the lead in the court. The accompanying table opened four or five tables, and the seats were all disciples of the big and small martial arts generation in the martial arts, and Guo Poyu found a beggar disciple who was familiar with him to sit at the table. After the meal in a hurry, Guo Jing and Huang Rong returned to the main hall, quietly waiting for Lu Youjiao and Guo Xiang to come back with the "Nine Turns Bear Snake Pill".

Guo Poyu first went back to the hospital where Wang Jianmin and the two were housed, met Wang Jianmin's mother, Mrs. Wang, and comforted her casually, then returned to the main hall. Looking at the clouds and shadows floating overhead, Guo Poyu couldn't help but feel apprehensive. He glanced at Zhu San, who was sitting in the distance, although he knew that Huang Yaoshi had sent a message saying that the "Nine Turns Bear Snake Pill" would definitely be able to save Wang and Jiang, but the two of them still couldn't help but worry about their senior brothers.
