Chapter 126: Phantom
At this time, the sky has just dawned, the wind of the spring morning is like water penetrating the skin and cool, and a few thin clouds like white light veil seem to linger on the willow treetops with fine leaves.
The ebony garden door under the beautiful and elegant "Seifuen" hanging plaque is closed, as if it is not yet time to start visiting the garden. When Feng Jingning brought Yun Yanzheng to knock on the door, the servant guarding the door invited them in with a smile, as if he was extremely familiar with the owner of the flower garden.
When they entered the garden, the servants closed the ebony gate with their hands and feet. Yun Yanzheng stood at the entrance, and could not see the scenery in the garden at a glance, the grass and trees were lush, and the flower path was circuitous, which just blocked the eyes of visitors who wanted to explore it.
With the guidance of Feng Jingning, all the way, but I feel that the mountains and rivers in this garden are like a picture scroll of dotted cui with appropriate shades, in which there are flowing springs at the feet of the dingdong, birds and birds chirp in the forest, and there is a kind of light beauty hidden in the quiet. What's more, the camellia in the courtyard always inadvertently gave others unexpected surprises, integrated in those scenes, or elegant, or beautiful, or delicate, or luxurious, or pure, or bright, or delicate, or dignified, or charming, different colors, different postures, different flower shapes, can be tasted, can not be appreciated one by one.
There are very few visitors in the garden, and only occasionally I faintly hear the whispered words of someone in the distance, but I don't see anyone when I raise my eyes. And the flowers and leaves in front of me especially bring crystal dewdrops, which is very lovely.
"When you enjoy the flowers, morning or evening, you can see the morning dew and smoke in the morning; At night, you can enjoy the sunset, fog and moon shadows. The wonder of appreciating flowers, in the rain in the wind, in the snow in the ice, the rain can be appreciated, the wind can be observed, the snow can be refined, and the ice can be perceived. The place of appreciating flowers, no more than near the water, by the mountain, leaning on the corridor, climbing the frame, near the window, around the pavilion, around the fence, can be used for people to enjoy the incense, the piano, the music, the tea, the Tan, the picture, the wine, this garden can enjoy the essence of appreciation. And every scene is like clear water out of hibiscus, naturally no need to carve, this point is the most fascinating, commendable. Yun Yanzheng himself is a master of landscaping and painting, and after visiting the garden for a long time, his heart is full of beautiful words.
Feng Jingning slapped his palm and smiled, "Wonderful! Zheng Yan is indeed an elegant person. The eyes that looked at her were full of appreciation and curiosity.
As he was talking, he could smell a burst of fragrance coming slowly, but it was not the breath of camellia.
The two looked at each other and smiled, both of them were interested in exploring the secret, and they followed the fragrance together.
Out of the nine-curved exquisite corridor, around the water curtain of flying beads and broken jade, a place in front of you presents the shape of a moon bud surrounded by water on three sides, the elegant camellia is born unevenly, swaying and colorful waterfront reflection. In the middle, a hexagonal flying Bogu pavilion, the pavilion pillars carved from pineapple ancient wood are horizontally, full of grass and wood interest.
On several cases in the pavilion, a double-ring jasper flower and bird incense burner was offered, and a furnace of incense was burning at the moment. The first smell of this fragrance is light and soft like a wisp of water lingering on the nose, as it gradually approaches, the fragrance becomes Ling Ling with a stream of snowflakes of incense, to get closer to the pavilion, this fragrance has smelled the coldness of the frost, but it seems to be crystal clear, so that people are refreshed, and the gods are clear.
On the side of the desk in the pavilion, there is a person sitting with his back to him, dressed in white, sitting on the futon on the ground, with a noble and distant posture, and his back is lonely and dusty, as if he has seen it there?
Yun Yanzheng involuntarily lightened his steps, even holding his breath, and a pair of phoenix eyes looked at him for a moment. It was as if it was just a phantom that would disappear without a trace in the blink of an eye. Such a scene is so similar, at that time in the West Garden of Luming Villa, the man was waiting for her in the water pavilion at the end of the winding path, and set up a table of delicious feasts for her.
And today, is there this feast for her to enjoy the flowers?
She knew in her heart that this was impossible, but she wanted to believe it, even if it was just a dream she thought about day and night, she didn't want to wake up.
"Gu Shezhi." A voice beside him called softly, but it was Feng Jingning, and it was really that the back was too similar.
The people who sat on the pavilion to admire the flowers seemed to be in a trance at this call. He moved slightly, slowly turned his head, raised his eyelashes slightly, and pursued the person behind him, so leisurely and calm, that people's breathing was paused.
Such a side face made Yun Yanzheng frown, that person was really not Gu Shezhi. All this is really just a dream of her own imagination, that person has long since passed away, how can he appear in this dragon capital thousands of miles away from Yuecheng? How could it appear in front of her eyes in broad daylight?
"Who are you?" Feng Jingning also took a long breath and raised his eyebrows and asked. There are such similar backs in this world, it is really possible to confuse the real with the fake.
"Bamboo fungus?" The person who answered was not a young man in the pavilion. It was Yun Yanzheng beside him, and her voice carried a little disappointment, a little gloom, and a little knowingly.
The young man on the pavilion, hearing this, stood up and looked handsome, turned to them and smiled warmly, and said in a clear voice: "It is Zhusheng below, this son just called my master's name, could it be that both of them are my master's friends?" He was polite in his words and deeds, and he had a considerate demeanor, but he could not compare with the demeanor of that person.
Yun Yanzheng's face was calm, but his heart was already rolling like a wave, and a trace of pain was drawn. Originally, she only wanted to watch the flowers and scenery here, in order to offset all kinds of tormenting pasts, but the chance encounter here once again made her realize that the pain in her heart had already been cone into her heart.
Feng Jingning smiled slightly, nodded and said, "I did have a relationship with your master, I haven't seen him for a long time, I don't know where he is now?" ”
Zhu Sheng glanced at Yun Yanzheng and smiled apologetically: "I see, I'm very sorry!" I don't know the whereabouts of the master. ”
While the two were talking, there were footsteps approaching in the flower path, and everyone turned their eyes, only to see a girl in blue walking out of the flower branches. The skirt is like the ice moon, it looks like a flowing glow, from far to near, and the posture is beautiful. When he got closer, he saw two strangers in front of the pavilion, and his eyes showed a little curiosity.
The two men are clearly a man and a woman, but they are both wearing men's clothes. The silk-tied boy seemed to have an affinity smile in his eyes, and the whole person looked loose and free without concern, but with a graceful and elegant aristocratic bearing, even among thousands of people, he would fall on him at a glance, that kind of eye-catching demeanor, so that people couldn't turn their eyes. The girl in blue couldn't help but rejoice in her determination, if it weren't for the fact that her gaze had already stood the wind and waves, she would have sunk into the charm and demeanor of this son at this moment.
When her eyes turned slightly, she looked at the slender woman beside him, only to see that her stunning face was damaged, but she was calm and relaxed, dressed in white and dusty, with a sad face and phoenix eyes, which made people yearn for it and secretly feel pity.
Yun Yanzheng's gaze was indifferent, but he did not fall on the cold-looking girl, but looked at the plate of camellia she was holding in both hands. Under the morning breeze and mist, the camellia planted in the jasper porcelain plate actually showed an ice blue color, just like a skilled craftsman carved with ice jade, and like the essence of the snow mountain and ice water bred by the elegant and beautiful flowers, but such a color that is dyed with ice crystal refraction is like who used the wisdom of the essence of heaven and earth to paint the world's stunning color.
Her mind was buzzing, when she was in Luming Villa, she had talked with Gu Xi about the strange flowers and rare plants and ancient trees in the world. He said that he had tried to cultivate a tea tree and let it produce ice-blue flowers, but unfortunately it was either variegated flowers, or flowers that were half ice blue and half different colors, or a tea tree with ice blue and variegated flowers, and never succeeded in producing a camellia that was ice blue and the whole plant was ice blue.
At that time, his tone was very regretful.
Now, his ice soul and snow spirit have gone, and there is such a stunning camellia in this world, how can she not be shocked and emotional?
"Who cultivated this camellia, I have never seen it in all my long journeys?" Feng Jingning's eyes were shining, and he was also very curious about this. In addition to appreciating in my heart, I also admired this person's ability to give birth to such a strange flower.
Yun Yanzheng came back to his senses from a trance, staring at the girl in blue in a daze, and also brought up layers of doubts and inquiries. There seem to be layers of waves in the eyes, and a little bit of water droplets are agitated, and a pair of phoenix eyes are changing, extremely blurry and illusory, so that people can't help but fall into it and can't extricate themselves.
The girl in blue also looked at her in a daze, but forgot to answer.
The bamboo fungus on the pavilion coughed lightly, and the blue-clothed girl outside the pavilion seemed to wake up from a dream, lowered her eyes slightly, smiled, and said happily: "This is cultivated by the bamboo fungus, and this year it finally bears a full plant of ice blue camellia." At the invitation of the owner of this garden, I am invited to come into the park to watch. Taking advantage of the fact that there are not many tourists here, I and the bamboo fungus want to enjoy it first. ”
With that, she walked lightly to the pineapple pavilion and placed the plate of ice blue camellia on the pear table with the incense burner in the arch.
"I don't know who made this furnace of ice and snow like water?" Feng Jingning also walked into the pavilion, and on the ground, Shi Shiran pulled a futon and sat down lazily, the corners of his robe spread out like flowing water on the ground, but he didn't care.
"This incense is also from the handwriting of bamboo fungus, you don't know, his master is powerful, not only knows a lot of things, but also understands the essence of everything." The girl in blue replied, and also pulled a futon and sat down with bent legs beside Zhu Sheng.
Yun Yanzheng stepped into the pavilion step by step, his eyes went from the ice blue camellia on a few cases, to the jasper incense burner, and then slowly turned to the bamboo fungus that was already seated. Every step, every thing, was like a series of Ling Chi's punishments on her heart, in her flesh, and in her bones.
She didn't know that she should be glad to have come to Longdu and meet these people and things related to Gu Xi, so that she could see a trace of that person's shadow on their bodies again and again; It's still time to regret coming to Longdu, leaving her soul tormented and painful again and again.
In her deep and gloomy gaze, Zhu Sheng did not hesitate to retreat, but smiled at her: "Since we are destined to get together, why don't we enjoy the flowers together?" Even though Master is not around at this moment, it is really fortunate and happy to have Master's old friends together. ”
Feng Jingning pointed to the piano platform behind Zhu Sheng, on which a xylophone was quiet and quiet, and smiled: "Presumably, Zhu Sheng is also proficient in music and rhythm, and is a master of the piano?" ”
Zhusheng's delicate face was a little shy, and he said: "I only learned a little fur from the master, and it is difficult to get into the elegant hall, which makes the son smile." ”
Feng Jingning shook his head and said: "Your master's fur is only afraid that it is different from other people's fur, I have been fortunate to listen to his flute sound, Qingyin opera is rare in the world, his attitude is graceful, and his feelings are far-reaching......" He recalled leisurely in his eyes, and then smiled, "Zhusheng, I will ask you to play a song, so as not to live up to the beautiful scenery of the good day at this moment." ”
