Chapter 291: Plum Garden

"How's that Gu going? Is there anything unusual? Xiao Yao asked.

"It's always been in his head, and it hasn't moved at all." Shen Ying said, "What's going on over there?" ”

"Things? It's fine. ”

"Nothing? Why is that Maruko desperately trying to find you? ”

"I summoned it, now is not the time to say this, do you remember the time when we were children when we went up to the mountain one night to play and then got lost?" Xiao Yao suddenly talked to Shen Ying about what happened when he was a child.

"You know, what's wrong?" Shen Ying replied.

"It's the same this time." Xiao Yao said.

After listening to Xiao Yao's words, Shen Ying immediately understood, Xiao Yao saw a group of people in ambush, but he didn't know whether the other party was friend or foe, and there was no sign of showing up, so Xiao Yao had been waiting there.

"Uncle Meng, Xiao Yao is indeed in trouble, the other party has been hiding, I don't know if it's friend or foe and has no intention of showing up." Shen Ying said.

Meng Tianya was by Shen Ying's side, and he naturally heard the words from the paper crane, so he said: "Well, sure enough, the disciples were negligent, but fortunately, Anan has already gone in person, I will wait for Anan's signal here, and if there is danger, I will rush over as soon as possible." ”

Shen Ying nodded, no need for him to repeat, Xiao Yao, who was far away on the mountain, heard Meng Tianya's voice through the paper crane.

Xiao Yao said that the incident when he was a child, it happened during a summer vacation in their elementary school, when the three of them ran out to play in the mountains far away, because the three of them were all cultivated since childhood, so they were very bold, starting from where they lived, the three of them slipped out in the afternoon while their respective masters were not paying attention, and when they arrived at the destination, it was already dark, and the three of them still chose to go up the mountain, the purpose of their coming to the mountains was to find a kind of moth, this is the summer vacation homework of the three of them, they checked the information, this moth belongs to the night owl, only active at night, So the three of them came to the mountains to look for it, because they were still young at that time, their idea was very simple, because of the phototaxis of moths, that is, moths to fight fires, so each of the three of them had a torch to catch moths.

After coming to Sanli, the three of them really prepared torches, lit them and went up the mountain, at first there was nothing unusual, the insects and birds in the mountains came and went, the sky in the mountains was often darker than the city, the three of them felt that they had not walked for long, but the sky was completely dark, and the insects and birds were also particularly gloomy.

But they have been bear children since they were children, and they don't know what they are afraid of, so they continue to walk until they come to the deep woods.

"Look!"

Xiao Yin Que suddenly shouted, because he saw that they were going to catch the moth, so the three of them immediately chased after them, because the moth was always more than ten meters away from them, they were slow moths slow, they were fast moths were also fast, the situation was very strange.

After chasing for a while, I don't know how long it took, the atmosphere around suddenly became weird, the deathly silence all around, whether it was bird chirping or insect chirping, all disappeared, and the three of them also ritualized to something wrong, they looked around and found that they were lost, where they were at all, and the surrounding woods looked the same.

At this time, they felt that there were people around, and it was not one or two, and the three of them immediately became a little scared, although they had already started cultivating, they were still children, and it was normal to be afraid, so the three of them could only stay where they were, not daring to look around.

And there are indeed people around, to be precise, there is something, three hundred meters away from the place where the three of them are is a mass grave, although cremation has been popularized in the past nine years, but not many people in the countryside are willing to cremation, especially those who are unknown or have no relatives and no reason, the people in the village will kindly find a place for them to bury, and most of the places they choose are this kind of mass graves, so over time, there are a lot of wandering ghosts wandering around looking for substitutes.

And children like Xiao Yao and the three of them are the best choice, and they don't need to spend much effort to successfully become their own stand-ins.

Xiao Yao and the three of them are still young after all, and they have just cultivated for a long time, and they treat the wandering ghosts and wild ghosts around them as people, and the three of them have been waiting in place until late at night, and the torches have been burned out, fortunately, the three of them learned to light a bonfire when they were naughty before, so they will not be frozen, but starvation is inevitable, and there is a group of eager ghosts around.

Late at night, it was the time when the ghosts were most rampant, just when these wandering ghosts and wild ghosts were going to collectively step forward to take the bodies of the three people, suddenly a golden light lit up in the south, followed by a fire and a white light, those wandering ghosts were very afraid of these three lights, screaming and fleeing from here, and then the three figures appeared in front of Xiao Yao and them, it was their master, after which the three of them fainted, and when they woke up, it was noon on the third day, and their three bear children had been in a coma for two days.

……

……

More than three months have passed since the coronation ceremony, during which the relationship between Yin Que and Zhu Qingqing has heated up rapidly, and Li Ke and Yang Xuanyan have also given the two of them a pro-posture, Yang Xuanyan's body is getting worse and worse, especially in winter, when he is deficient in qi and blood, often panting and coughing up phlegm, although he is not terminally ill, but he is sick, and he has seen a lot of famous doctors at home, but he has prescribed some warm and moisturizing prescriptions, Yang Xuanyan has also been taking medicine, but his body has not improved much.

On this day, Yin Que took Li San to the door of Yang's Mansion to wait for the jade slave to come out, and the two made an appointment to go to the plum garden to enjoy the plum blossoms, the plum garden is the official place to enjoy the plum blossoms in Shu, which was originally built by Li Su, the king of Shu during the Zhenguan period.

Shu King Li Su, tyrannical and impermanent, fun-loving, so I saw a garden to enjoy the plum, he did not learn and did not know how to do it, but he also had to be vassally elegant, after the death of the King of Shu, this garden was left by Emperor Gaozong, became a famous plum garden in Shuzhou, every year the government will draw silver to take care of here, here is also a lot of literati and must come in winter.

After a while, Zhu Qingqing walked out of the house, today she wore a white sheepskin jacket, her little face was frozen red, although the winter in Shuzhong was not as cold as the north, but the temperature was also very low, it belonged to the cold climate.

"It's beautiful!" Yin Que said secretly, today's Zhu Qingqing is very different from the previous dress, and there is some style of the Western Regions.

Zhu Qingqing smiled and went out of the house with Yin Que a total of four people, Zhu Qingqing was depressed at home all day because of Yang Xuanyan's illness, and he would only smile when he saw Yin Que, so Li Ke asked him to accompany Yunu more.

Four people along the street to the plum garden, because it is going to the end of the year, the whole street market has become very lively, shouting one after another, the pedestrians on the road are also smiling, now it is the prosperous era of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, and the New Year is approaching, the people have also accumulated some money to have a good year, so the people who buy things can be said to be crowded with people, although the mountainous roads in Shuzhong are interesting, since ancient times it is often said that the road to Shu is difficult, the Hu merchants in the city of Shuzhou are indeed a lot, and now the Tang Dynasty is at its peak, and does not refuse any country's caravans, Therefore, it is normal for Hu Shang to be able to enter Shu.

"Brother Qinglian, look at this!" The Yunu came to a Hu merchant's shop and reached out to pick up a slightly curved dagger. ……
