Hu Xianxian sneaked to the river and swam into the water, the river water was cool and pleasant, and the season should be late summer and early autumn. At this time, it is the end of winter and the beginning of spring, and the river water will be cold and biting.

After swimming for a short time, Hu Xianxian saw a bamboo forest, and there was a small building in the bamboo forest. Outside, there were only a few old and frail guards patrolling the building, and it was easy to enter the house from the roof as long as they swept the bamboo.

Hu Xianxian felt that the guards here were too lax, and he was afraid that there would be fraud. She waited for a long time in the water, but nothing unusual happened, and she decided to take a risk.

Hu Xianxian walked down from the grass on the riverbank to the edge of the bamboo forest, and jumped lightly on the bamboo tops. The tiptoes tapped the bamboo tips and flew to the roof. She uncovered a few tiles, shrunk and jumped into the room.

The room that Hu Xianxian entered was a small storeroom upstairs, which should not have been used for a long time, and the floor was full of dust.

Hu Xianxian looked at the shallow footprints left by himself on the dust, and waved his hand to smooth the footprints with qi waves when he went out.

Hu Xianxian leaned against the door and observed the terrain in the courtyard. This is a small courtyard with two entrances, the front yard is a small courtyard house with blue tiles and white walls, and the back yard is a semi-enclosed two-story building.

Hu Xianxian saw that the front yard was brightly lit and there was a commotion, thinking that it should be a place for the guards to rest. And the seven rooms upstairs of this small backyard building have obviously been inactive for a long time. Then the place where the 3,000-year-old is imprisoned is the seven rooms downstairs.

Hu Xianxian didn't take the stairs, and jumped lightly onto a large osmanthus tree in the courtyard. She hid among the foliage and saw which room was where the three thousand years old were kept. She felt fragrant on this tree, only to find that the osmanthus was blooming full of branches, it turned out that the Qingqiu country at this time was really in the early autumn season.

Hu Xianxian saw that the lights were on in the three wings on the left, and there were whispers, probably guards. The three wings on the right may have been abandoned. But the doors of the four main rooms were wide open, and each one was lit with a lantern.

Hu Xianxian was a little puzzled, could it be that the three thousand years old were locked up in one of the four main rooms? How does such a posture of opening the door and lighting the lamp look like a prisoner? Hu Xianxian felt that this was really like a fraud, so he lay motionless on the branches.

The breeze was blowing, the fragrance of flowers was pleasant, and Hu Xianxian felt that he didn't feel like he was here to spy on the three thousand years old, but like he had come to admire the moon among the flowers.

After waiting for a long time, a few drunken guards came out of the wing room on the left, muttering, and after waiting for half an hour, they could go back and sleep comfortably.

Listening to their words, Hu Xianxian thought that this should indeed be the place where the three thousand years old were imprisoned, and Cui'er would not be able to lie to herself. But she couldn't think of a room here that looked like a prisoner.

Hu Xianxian wanted to go back first, and wait for others to inquire about the specific location of the detention before coming. She was so depressed, she really didn't want to go back in vain.

Maybe it's providence to make her heart come true? Hu Xianxian was about to sweep up the roof, and when he went back, a sullen voice came from the third room of the main house: "Dogs, don't you send your Chitose grandfather's wine roast chicken?" ”

Hu Xianxian smiled secretly and breathed a sigh of relief, this is the voice of three thousand years old.

A guard hurriedly ran out, carrying a food box and scolding as he walked: "Who is this guarding prisoner?" is clearly serving the old lady. Alas, I thought I could stop for a while tonight and sit down peacefully. ”

After Hu Xianxian waited for the guard to return, he jumped off the tree and walked lightly into the room. There was no one locked up in that room, and Hu Xianxian was not flustered, he listened to the voice of the three thousand years old a little muffled, and guessed that he was locked in the basement.

Hu Xianxian easily found the mechanism behind a painting, opened the basement, and saw the 3,000-year-old munching in the corner.

Michitose licked his fingers and said, "Why did you linger for so long to come in such an easy place?" ”

Hu Xianxian looked at the three thousand years old who was carrying the golden shackles, the jade locks were locked on the golden shackles, and the silver shackles were tied to his feet, and he wondered: "You knew I was coming?" ”

Michitose snorted, "Of course, I'll wait for you to come in." In order to wait for you to come in, I postponed my third supper. ”

Hu Xianxian touched his nose, "They seem to be nice to you, and the guards are not strict, what's going on?" ”

Michitose smiled, "Can't figure it out, right?" You're stupid, look at me like this, who can help me out? Do you think this gold yoke and silver lock are for me to wear to look good? This is in line with the formation! ”

Hu Xianxian chuckled, "Of course, a prisoner who can't escape doesn't need to be guarded too closely. And you have a respected status, and they don't dare to embarrass you too much, right? ”

Michitose nodded while nibbling on roasted chicken thighs.

Hu Xianxian wanted to ask him everything he doubted, but before he could speak, the three thousand years old had already said with a mouthful of oil: "Don't be in a hurry to ask, I'll tell you everything you want to know when I finish eating." ”

Hu Xianxian patiently waited for the three thousand years old to finish eating, and the three thousand years old sucked his fingers and said: "No way, it's greasy, and there is no silk handkerchief for me to wipe my hands." “

Hu Xianxian sighed: "No matter what kind of actions the prince makes, he can't change the nobility in his bones. ”

Sanchitose smiled, "That's it, you don't have to flatter me." Alas, who made me fall in love with Tingfeng, I owe you a favor first. ”

Hu Xianxian asked: "Listening to the wind is the big-eared donkey?" ”

Three thousand years old introduced: "Have you heard the story of Zhang Guolao riding a donkey upside down? It is said that his donkey is cut out of paper, but it is actually a kind of donkey that can be hidden. And that kind of donkey and Tingfeng are the same kind of brothers, Tingfeng can't be invisible, but can hear movement within a radius of 100 miles, and can distinguish which sound is harmful to the owner. ”

"Oh? So coincidentally? I just picked it in the market. At that time, I wanted to pick a tall donkey, but the big ears kept barking at me. Its original owner said that although the donkey was small, he had a more docile temperament than other donkeys, so I would buy it. ”

Three thousand years old nodded and said, "Yes, listening to the wind has spirituality, and it will choose its own master." It can feel that you are a person who cultivates immortals, and you will not suffer from grinding and driving. ”

Hu Xianxian smiled, secretly thinking that his luck would be better for a while, and he ran into a divine donkey. It's a pity that I easily gave it to someone else.

Michitose then said, "You don't have to be sorry, it's not very useful to you. But as for me, I've loved all kinds of donkeys since I was a child. We fox people are timid, but we don't dare to ride a tall horse, this kind of small donkey is just right for us. ”

Three thousand years old began to tell about him, his name was Liewai, the third brother of the previous lord of the country, and the third uncle of the current lord. After he was placed under house arrest, he quickly took control of the guards and escaped because he could see what was going on in the hearts of others.

Hu Xianxian hurriedly interjected, "Can you gain insight into other people's hearts?" No wonder what I think, you can be clear. Do you use mind reading? “

Three thousand years old waved his hand: "No, it's not mind reading." We fox people are good at observing words and feelings, and it is easy to know what others think. And I am even more gifted, I can understand what others are thinking through their eyes. ”

Hu Xianxian nodded lightly, and the three thousand years old said: "But it is precisely because of this talent that I have been imprisoned for myself." I clearly know that Lie Yuxun not only wants to usurp power, but he also conspires with others to completely move the Qingqiu Kingdom from its current realm to the human world. ”

Hu Xianxian was surprised, "Moved to the world? What benefits does this have for the people of Qingqiu Country? ”

Three thousand years old sighed: "Of course it is harmful! Lie Yuxun was also bewitched! Alas, it's almost dawn. You go back first, and I'll talk to you in a few days. ”

Hu Xianxian got up to say goodbye, and the three thousand years old stopped her again and handed her a very small bird. This bird is only the size of a small walnut, and is covered in colorful feathers, and after being pulled out from under the neck by 3,000 years old, it turned its eyes to look at Hu Xianxian.

Hu Xianxian looked at the cute bird in surprise, "You hide it on your chest and you're not afraid of suffocating it?" ”

Three thousand years old said: "This is a colorful magpie, as long as you don't wake it up, it is a lifeless jade carving, not afraid of stuffiness." Give it to you, I want your mount, let it be your mount. ”

Hu Xianxian carefully took the colorful magpie from the three thousand years old, and scratched his head: "Such a little cutie, how can I bear to ride it?" ”

Three thousand years old tilted his head and smiled, "When you leave Qingqiu Country, you can ride it, and then you will know that it is not small." ”
