The heavy snow fell for three days and three nights, and the vast land was covered with a thick white cotton coat, indicating that the harsh winter had arrived.

Perhaps due to the natural favorable terrain and climate, Taoyuan has never been affected by the cold air, and it is still like spring all year round, with occasional snowflakes floating in the sky, fleeting.

It has been nearly half a month since he came to Taoyuan, and his body is gradually recovering, and his pale face is slightly ruddy.

She sat leisurely by the window, teacup in hand, thoughtful. The steaming tea cooled down in time, and she still sat quietly beside her, indifferent.

Pieces of peach blossoms, apricot blossoms, plum blossoms, mixed with bits and pieces of snow, as if no one was flying freely in the air.

This beautiful scene really attracted the painting to the past. She put down the cold teacup, put on the outfit and fluffy shawl that Sheng Lanqian had prepared for the trip, opened the door, and slowly walked towards the flower forest.

In a flower forest inside Taoyuan Village, there are countless types of flowers, but they are not surrounded by chaos outside, but there are ditches and ditches, horizontal and vertical.

The reason is that the cluttered flowers and trees outside are to cover the real peach orchard, and if you are new to this place, without the guidance of familiar passers-by, you will inevitably be confused and unable to break through.

And the inside of the flower tree, is really for the flower admirers and carefully cultivated, a closer look will you will find, not only a flower and a leaf is absolutely not prosperous, and the form of each tree is different, some charm charming, some gentle and lovely, some subtle and dignified, some fall generous, each has its own autumn, as if the beauty changes, lifelike.

To be able to prune such a delicate and unique peach forest, it is necessary to have a jade-faced miracle doctor. Only a man of his caliber nature can complete this masterpiece.

Huayan looked at the look of the flower tree and smiled subtly. "Brother Divine Doctor is still waiting for the girl who said goodbye without saying goodbye."

"Do you mean the Third Master?" An immature voice sounded behind Hua Yan.

Hua Yan turned around in surprise and saw that it was an eight or nine-year-old little scholar. I saw that the little scholar Wenwen was weak, white and tender, with a round face, extremely cute. Staring at her with a pair of big sparkling eyes, he was looking at her curiously.

"The jade-faced divine doctor is your third master?" Hua Yan leaned over and looked at the little scholar with interest, "Then who is your master?" ”

The little scholar was not afraid, and leaned in and said, "Hmm! My master is Fang Hai, and he is the first disciple of the Third Master. ”

"Xiao Haizi is your master?! Good fellow, he's hiding it pretty deeply! Hua Yan laughed.

"Who said he was the number one disciple of the Jade-Faced Divine Doctor? The first disciple, here you are! She pointed to herself and continued.

The little scholar frowned and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Hua Yan smiled mysteriously: "Guess what? ”

The little scholar looked at Huayan and shook his head suspiciously, but he analyzed politely and methodically: "Although I have never seen you in Taoyuan, the people who can enter Taoyuan must be their own people." But you said that you are the eldest disciple of the Third Master, and I can't easily believe you without evidence. ”

"Uh...... Yes, that's right, don't trust strangers easily, that's right. Hua Yan gently stroked the little scholar's head and smiled lovingly. She suddenly asked, "Little scholar, what's your name?" ”

The little scholar replied truthfully: "My name is Bai Qingdai, this is the name given to me by the third master, you can also call me Xiao Si, because among the newly accepted disciples, I am ranked fourth, and they all call me that, which is convenient." ”

"Qing Dai? Isn't that a girl's name? Hua Yan asked.

The little scholar suddenly puffed out his round face, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "I'm a girl!" With that, she anxiously tore off her hat and lowered her long hair, "You see, I am indeed a girl!" ”

Hua Yan looked at it in surprise for a while, and then smiled: "Oh, I'm sorry, forgive your uncle for being so short-sighted and dazzled." ”

"You said that you are my uncle, do you have any evidence?" The little scholar suddenly changed his expression and asked with a serious face.

Hua Yan pointed around and smiled easily: "Your master is not in Taoyuan now, if you don't believe it, go and ask your other masters, teachers and uncles, they can testify for me." ”

"Okay, I'll go ask them." The little scholar said, opened the notebook in his hand, and was about to leave.

"Wait, what's in your hand?" Huayan summoned Qing Dai, who was about to run away.

Qing Dai showed her the book in her hand and said, "It's your portrait." ”

When I took a closer look, the lifelike person on the painting paper was really myself, and I smiled for a moment, but I was delicately depicted by the brush, and the background of the painting was here. "You drew this?"

Qing Dai nodded cutely, "As soon as you enter the peach forest, I will see you, the peach garden is not allowed outsiders to enter and exit, if you draw your appearance, I will not be afraid that you will abscond." I don't feel like you're a bad person, though. ”

"Little girl, she's pretty smart. But from what point do you judge that I must not be a bad person? Hua Yan said with interest.

"Master said that each other is born from the heart, and you are so beautiful, you must not be a bad person, like a fairy." Qing Dai blinked her pure eyes and looked at Huayan and said.

The painting was touched by the pure eyes of this little girl, and gradually became close to her.

"Since you know that I'm not a bad person, don't rush to seek verification first, talk to me here." Hua Yan felt uncomfortable squatting for a long time, so he simply sat on the stone pier next to him.

Qing Dai tilted her head and thought about it, and said happily: "Okay! ”

Qing Dai sat next to Hua Yan, and also looked in the direction of Hua Yan's distraction.

"Sister Fairy, what are you thinking?" Qing Dai asked deftly.

"I'm in my father's mother," said Hua Yan softly.

Qing Dai followed the line of sight of the painter, "Are they on the other side of the creek?" Sister Fairy, why don't you bring them to Taoyuan as well. ”

Painted face lowered her eyelids and withdrew her grief, "I will." She looked up and tried to smile so that Qing Dai wouldn't worry about her. She found that the little girl was so clever that any emotion of an adult could not hide from her eyes.

Qing Dai withdrew her hand, and suddenly jumped up and down at another little boy by the stream, waving her hands vigorously, and shouting, "Little Five! Little Five! I'm here! ”

When the little boy heard the message, he immediately ran towards them.

The little man was still panting and said, "Little Four, where did you just go?" I've been looking for you for a long time! ”

"I've been in the peach forest all along, I'm chatting with the fairy sister!" Qing Dai turned around and pointed to the little boy and said.

When the little boy saw that there was another outsider next to him, he immediately regained his composure, looked at the painting carefully for a while, suddenly knelt down on one leg, and arched his hand: "Xiao Wu has seen Uncle Shi." ”

"You call me uncle? Who are you? Who is your master? Hua Yan slowly stood up, looked at the little boy interestingly, and said.

The little boy still knelt on one knee and arched his hand: "Uncle Hui, my name is Xiao Wu, and my master is Limu." ”

"Limu has accepted apprentices? One by one faster than me! Hua Yan said in surprise.

She helped Xiao Wu up and said gently, "Xiao Wu, how do you recognize me?" Since I returned to Taoyuan, I don't seem to have been out a few times. ”

Xiao Wu replied respectfully: "The Fourth Master once warned us that if we meet a fairy-like sister in the peach orchard, we must be respectful and polite, because she is the disciple of the Master Gong and our uncle. ”

Hua Yan smiled with satisfaction: "Sister Fairy? This is described extremely accurately, and Brother Yaowen is really thoughtful. She turned to Qingdai and said, "How is it?" Now Qingdai should believe that I am your uncle, right? ”

Xiao Wu poked Qing Dai's arm with his hand and whispered: "Not long ago, the Fourth Master warned us, you forgot it so quickly?" Hurry up and salute your uncle. ”

Qingdai scratched her head and muttered, "Why don't I remember ......"

Don't look at Xiao Wu's ranking after Qing Dai, but it is two years older than Qing Dai and much more mature. Looking at the cute appearance of the two little ghosts, she smiled happily, and getting along with such two elf-like children seemed to make her herself lighter.

"Sister Yan, it turns out that you are here, no wonder Sister Shenglan asked me to go over to look for you, but I didn't see you, so let Limu look for it." Away from the wood, he walked briskly from a distance.

When Xiao Wu saw his master coming, he hurriedly leaned over and saluted: "Master." ”

Huayan smiled and looked at the oncoming young man, "When did you receive such a good seedling from Limu?" Now you're a role model. ”

Limu smiled embarrassedly: "Taoyuan was recruiting little apprentices some time ago, and the master let me get one. ”

Huayan patted Limu's shoulder and encouraged: "Not bad, it means that you have made great progress and are already able to teach your apprentices, continue to work hard and carry forward Taoyuan!" ”

"Hmmm! Limu also has to thank Sister Yan for saving her life back then, otherwise there would be no Limu today. Limu said sincerely.

"Hey, what are you doing with those things, it's a matter of effort." Huayan waved her hand, she turned to the two little ones and said, "Little four and little five, you go back first, I have something to say to your master." ”

Xiao Wu led Xiao Si to bow respectfully to Huayan and Limu, turned around and left the peach forest.

Little Four was a little shorter than Little Five, and he was leading her to walk, but she couldn't keep up, so she had to trot all the way, not noticing that the piece of paper she had sandwiched in the book was falling. And the paper was blown by the fierce wind, and it drifted thousands of miles away, and it was nowhere to be found. Hou Xiaosi was sad for several days.

Seeing the two little cuties leave, the painter turned around and said, "I asked Shenglan to call you, because I have something to do with you." ”

"Sister Yan said that Limu must be done well." Limu didn't want to think about it, and replied.

Hua Yan turned around and led Limu to take a walk by the stream, and said slowly: "I want you to go to Shuchuan and arrange troops for me." ”

"Formation?" Limu asked puzzled.

Hua Yan nodded and said: "The third prince Liu Che'er was sent to Shuchuan, and on the face of it, he withdrew from the battle for the throne, but in fact, he was waiting for an opportunity to recuperate. What we have to do is to add fuel to the fire. Help him quickly build his army in Shuchuan, so that soldiers, horses, grain and grass are the most important. Shuchuan Diling Jie, it is not a problem to gather these, but the problem is that the imperial court must not find out that he is building his own army, otherwise, the army has not been built, he has already been convicted and imprisoned, and his bones are gone. So I want you to go to Shuchuan, gather our own brothers, and secretly do it for them, and help him if necessary. ”

Limu suddenly realized, "So that's the case." ”

Hua Yan stopped and looked at Limu calmly, "Can you handle this for me?" ”

Limu patted his chest and swore that "Sister Yan, rest assured, Limu will definitely do it!" ”

"Don't you want to ask me why I'm doing this? The crown prince has been established, I do this, but I am suspected of helping the three princes rebel, are you still willing to help me? ”

Hua Yan continued to walk forward, and said nonchalantly.

Limu quickly followed the footsteps of Huayan from behind, and said firmly: "Limu believes that what Sister Yan decided to do must be right, Limu doesn't need to ask more, even if it is not right, Limu is willing to go to the soup for Sister Yan, and he will not give up!" ”

"Your trust is right, and I believe that you will be able to handle this well." Huayan smiled and patted Limu's shoulder, without explaining too much, and continued to walk in the direction of home.
