Chapter III Introduction

In the deep mountain cave of Wufeng Mountain, the disciples of the Qingfeng Sect of the Jianghu Sect knelt down in front of a stone statue of a Taoist priest enshrined in the cave.

On the altar of the stone statue of the Taoist priest is a crystal jade bottle, and the mouth of the jade bottle is open.

You Ran looked at the open jade bottle and smiled.

After he bowed his head in front of the stone statue, he said to the stone statue, "Master Dao Immortal, the promise that the disciple made to you back then has been fulfilled for you, don't worry." ”

You Ran looked at the jade bottle that had been opened, and said again: "That soul has found her host, the door master will come back soon, You Ran will definitely find her, and will protect her well, Dao Immortal Master, you can rest assured."

He said with gratitude: "Dao Immortal Master, the disciple must remember your explanation back then, and go to Jingshi after the soul is out of the bottle."

You Ran kowtowed again, "The disciple must be vigilant against your words, not revealing her identity, hiding by her side, and waiting for the day she returns." ”

He stood up, took his sword, and looked deeply at the statue.

At this time, his mind recalled the appearance of the woman, who had not seen her for many years, and her appearance was still clearly in his mind.

He walked down the hill and took a deep breath, his eyes sharp and his heart full of energy.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

I'm really happy that my pastry making skills have been recognized by them.

Looking at the corners of Ji Yu's mouth raised after eating the pastry, I felt that my hard work in the past two days had not been in vain.

Ji Yu is my life-saving benefactor, he treats me like a family member, and I feel very comfortable, so I try my best to repay him.

Standing under the pear tree, I looked at the pears on the tree, thinking that I could pick a few and stew some pear soup for Ji Gongzi, and I was excited.

Qingyan next to him was rambling again, "Miss Bai, do you really want to climb the tree to pick pears?" Why don't I go up and pick it for you?" ”

Looking at my posture, Qingyan had already guessed what I was going to do.

"No, I'll go up and pick it myself." I didn't look back, my eyes stared directly at Sydney on the tree and said to her.

"But the tree is very tall, Miss Bai, can you climb it?" Qingyan was very worried about me, she was afraid that I was going to fall, how to explain to her son.

I turned around and patted her on the shoulder with a light smile, "Don't worry, I'll be very careful to make sure I pick a few pears." ”

Qingyan's face changed, and she was helpless against my behavior.

When I saw the tree, I started to climb up. It was a bit tough, but I climbed it anyway.

On the tree, I waved my hand at Qingyan and said, "Qingyan, look, I'm not very powerful!"

Qingyan waved happily and said, "Miss, you are really good, but be careful!"

"You wait to catch the pears." I smiled and began to pick the pears.

One, two, three, I picked it and threw it at the green smoke, and she followed below.

I found a big pear, a little more ripe than the others. It's just a little farther away, and I'm a little bit out of reach. Trying to pluck the pear, I struggled to move it forward. Maybe the bark of the tree was a little slippery, and I didn't stand firm for a while, and my body leaned, and the whole person fell under the tree.

Qingyan under the tree shouted in fright: "Miss Bai!" She hurriedly dropped the pear in her hand to catch me, and a silver-white figure flew in front of her.

The figure spun in the air, and then caught me as I fell. I thought I was going to fall to the ground, but I fell into a warm embrace. I grabbed him by the collar and looked up into those deep eyes.

His eyes were so beautiful and breathtaking that I was stunned.

After he stood firmly on the ground, I was still stunned and at a loss, and called him softly in my mouth, "Ji Gongzi." ”

He held me in his arms, and he didn't look like he was going to let me down, and I forgot to get out of his arms. The two just stared at each other blankly.

"What are you doing when you climb so high?" He asked me in a wavy voice.

I still stared at him, and replied stupidly, "I want to pick a few pears and give you a stew."

"In the future, just tell them to do such things. What if you fall? ”

His words were soft and gentle. I couldn't argue with the same, but I replied, "Okay."

He carried me to the courtyard and threw Qingyan a sentence, "If you want to look at her, you can't see it well." ”

It's like a reproach.

I don't understand, just because of this, do you need to blame Qingyan? Qingyan looked like she had done something wrong, and when Ji Yu walked by, she bowed her head and was silent.

Ji Yu carried me all the way to the stone table in the courtyard before putting me down. Along the way, I snuggled into his arms and felt his body fragrance, as if I didn't want to leave his body. This just made my heart beat and I blushed.

After Qingyan came with the pears, I hurriedly picked up the pears from Qingyan's hand and said to him, "I'll go stew soup."

With that, I walked towards the kitchen, a little scared to look him in the eye.

What's wrong with me? Are you afraid that he will laugh at me?

I kept giggling when I watched the fire, I didn't even know what I was laughing at.

I felt kind when I thought of the way he looked at me, not as indifferent as he did to his subordinates.

Ji Yu didn't care about me anymore, walked to his room by himself, and sat next to the pear wood case. He finished the ink, picked up the pen, and drew on rice paper. In less than an hour, his pen came up with a vivid painting.

He admired his paintings and was very satisfied. The woman in the painting, with long black hair like a spring, a Qibao coral hairpin in her hair, her eyebrows are lightly swept, her eyes are like water, her lips are like a pair of red lips, and she smiles like a smile. He looked at the painting and was fascinated by the thought of her smile.

It was a shadow that lingered in his heart.

That's his joy.

It is a heart that he has paid for with his heart.

It's just that every time he thinks of her, his heart hurts and hurts, and he can't extricate himself.

In the tea room of his room, I sat at the pear blossom wood table and watched him drink my stewed pear soup one by one. I was very happy. He ate elegantly, and I felt completely mesmerized by him.

Holding his chin in his hand, he watched silently as he finished drinking.

"Is it good?" I looked at him obediently.

Without looking up, he said to me, "Yes."

Continue to take the last sip.

I bit my lip and smiled, as long as he liked it.

"Don't do such a dangerous thing in the future, I can't be by your side all the time, if something happens, what to do." He put down his spoon and looked up at me.

"Uh-huh." I flattened my mouth.

He stared at me blankly, not moving.

At that moment, I thought he had a different heart for me, but later I realized that maybe I had guessed wrong.

I've always wanted to figure out my own identity, although I've been here for a few days at Mengxian Residence, but every time I stand by the river and look up at the waterfall on the high mountain in the distance, I don't have the courage to climb to the top of the cliff to have a look.

"What are you looking at?" When Ji Yu's voice sounded behind me, I reacted and looked back at him.

I looked at the mountain and said, "Where is that?"

"Spirit Pillar Peak." Ji Yu replied to me lightly.

"Can you go there and have a look?" I looked back at him.

Ji Yu was silent for a while before he said: "That's a forbidden place, a forbidden place ordered by the imperial court, not everyone can go to that mountain."

I was puzzled.

Seeing Ji Yu's expression, he just didn't want to tell me, so I didn't continue to ask. But from this moment, my curiosity about that mountain increased by several layers.

At night, I couldn't sleep peacefully, and I kept thinking about Ji Yu's eyes. When I said I was going to go there and have a look, he had a disgusted look on his face.

In this deep mountain valley, in the wilderness, what will make the imperial court forbidden today?

Could it be that there are wild beasts on the mountain?

There was a knock on the door outside, it was Ji Yu. He was asking softly, "Peach, are you asleep?" ”

I sat up, slowly got out of bed, and opened the door.

I didn't turn on the light, and in the dark night, Ji Yu stood at the door and looked at me stunned.

In the moonlight, his expression was dull, and he felt that something was on his mind.

"Childe looking for me?" I asked softly.

Ji Yu didn't react, still with that expression.

"Childe?" I shouted at him again.

His dull eyes just now had an aura, and he put his hands on my shoulders, showing a serious expression and said: "Tao'er, I don't want you to go to that Lingzhu Peak during the day, because you really can't go there, when the Empress Dowager will decree tomorrow and today, it is a holy mountain, and it cannot be desecrated."

Ji Yu and I stood under the porch, looking at the moonlight.

From the courtyard, the holy mountain is just a dark shadow, but it always gives people a sense of mystery.

"Where are the gods?" I asked curiously.

Ji Yu smiled and said softly: "Decades ago, Emperor Zhenwu's favored Kou Tianshi sat on that mountain and returned to immortals, and since then, that mountain has been named a holy mountain by the imperial court and has become a forbidden place for burying immortals."

I understand, I understand, that mountain is a tomb.

It is the tomb of a generation of heavenly masters who are forbidden to step into by the imperial court.
