After listening to Fang Wenxuan's words, everyone present was very curious, why could he ask like this?

Mu Qianmei smiled and asked:

"Brother Fang said dare not, I don't know what to understand?"

Fang Wenxuan sorted out his thoughts, and after a while, he explained slowly:

"In the western suburbs of our Magnolia City, there is a plum forest, where once lived a large family who returned from Kyoto to the countryside, it is said that the old man Zhou was a civil official of the imperial court, in a high position, but also an elegant person, especially like plum blossoms, so two hundred years ago I bought that place, planted a plum forest, built a very exquisite villa, named plum blossom villa."

"The Plum Blossom Villa is located in a deep valley, very quiet, the most suitable for cultivating the mind and cultivating the mind, and spending the old age in peace."

"However, after all, it is a high-ranking official who retreats, and that Master Zhou likes tranquility, so there is almost no intersection with ordinary people, and those who can enter the villa are some literati and scholars, or officials who are also in high positions, and outsiders can only see the plum forest and the exquisite plum blossom villa from a distance, from the past of Magnolia City, there is a wide bluestone paved road, which can pass two gorgeous carriages."

"In the first fifty or sixty years, it was very peaceful there, and there were often guests visiting, which seemed to be very popular, but later, as the old man Zhou got older and older, it seemed that his mobility was inconvenient, and he was old, probably not very clear, and the number of people visiting gradually became a lot less."

"Eighty years ago, the old man Zhou finally passed away in old age, and his children and descendants all lived in Yong'an City, and no one wanted to come to live in this remote Plum Blossom Villa, so the building was vacant."

"Of course, although the villa is vacant, the family still hires someone to guard the house and clean the house, but the main building is locked and no one can enter."

"Fifty years ago, more than 60 people who stayed in the villa suddenly disappeared overnight, according to the villagers who lived nearby, that night the wind in the villa was gusting, it seemed to be a ghost, and it seemed to be an invasion of monsters, eating everyone, people can hear the screams coming from far away."

"There are also legends that the blame is a snake demon in the plum blossom villa, it is said that when the old man Zhou was alive, he raised a thousand-year-old python to take care of Meilin, and later after the death of the old man Zhou, the thousand-year-old python has been cultivated into a demon and ate all the people who guarded the plum blossom villa."

"However, those are just rumors, and no official announcement has been issued, so I can't confirm the truth of the matter, but one thing is certain, that is, those people have indeed disappeared mysteriously."

"Later, the descendants of Master Zhou only hired an old man who was said to have a good cultivation to guard there, and Plum Blossom Villa became a real empty mansion, but it was also a murderous mansion in people's minds, and almost no one dared to approach it easily."

"So far, the plum blossom villa has been uninhabited for fifty years, it seems a little desolate, three years ago, the descendants of the Zhou family released the news that they wanted to sell this villa, but, in addition to the price is more expensive, they also put forward a condition, that is said that when the old man Zhou was alive, he left a will, saying that people who want to buy this plum blossom villa must write a plum blossom poem that satisfies their descendants before they can agree to sell."

"If you think about it, this is originally a murderous house, and it is expensive, not to mention, and it is required to write a plum blossom poem that satisfies their descendants, who wants to buy such a mountain villa?"

"So, three years have passed, and no one has cared about it, so it has been vacant, so I asked Miss Mu, do you dare to buy it?"

Mu Qianmei pondered some of the information revealed in the story, and did not answer immediately, Bai Lingshan of the Sword Sect said with a little fear:

"Such a murderous mansion, naturally you can't buy it, whether it's haunted or there is a snake demon, it's very scary!"

Yue Qingyuan shook his head and replied:

"How can we cultivators be afraid of this, the main reason is that there are so many people in it who have died unexpectedly, which always makes people feel uncomfortable and unlucky."

Xiao Ziqi also said with a smile:

"If it is really the thousand-year-old python that guards Merlin inside and turns into a snake demon, it is said that the cultivation will not be too high, especially the snake demon who has just transformed into a snake demon, the combat power is not too strong, it may be very strong for ordinary people, but it should be nothing for monks."

Jade subconsciously said:

"yes, what is there to fear from the snake demon? Since it is a python raised by Master Zhou, it should be very spiritual, and it can't be that it ate those people. ”

The Tiger King said with a full sense of expectation:

"So, I like that place a lot!"

Bai Qianqian also agreed:

"I also think this place is good!"

Only Liu Tingfeng and Bing Lan didn't express any opinions, but there was also a hint of fascination in their eyes.

Mu Qianmei only then spoke:

"Since everyone likes this place, then please take us there tomorrow, check it out first, if you really like it, contact the descendants of the Zhou family, let's give it a try and see if we can buy it!"

That night, after they had dinner, they all stayed in the drunken sky.

Early the next morning, under the leadership of Fang Wenxuan, the group went to the Plum Blossom Villa in the western suburbs of Magnolia City.

It is indeed a bit remote here, the northern suburbs where the Sword Sect rudder is located, just in the city of the north gate, you can also see the buildings and streets of Magnolia City, which are almost connected, but the plum blossom villa in the western suburbs is out of the city gate, and you need to walk about twenty miles to get there, all the way are barren and wild, and occasionally there are a few rural families, which also seem very desolate.

What's more, there are still many cemeteries built on the mountains in the western suburbs, and it seems that the people of this city will choose to bury the deceased in this area, although it is not specially planned, but it is also a customary habit.

If you stand on a high place and look this way, this area is like an irregular cemetery, which makes everyone who walks on this stone road feel inexplicably cold.

On the twenty-mile stone pavement, there are hardly a few people in sight, which is in stark contrast to the bustling Magnolia City.

They were all people with a high level of cultivation, so they didn't hire a carriage, they just came on foot, walking slowly, and looking at the surrounding environment while walking.

The snow has been falling and melting fast these days, and snow can still be seen on the roadside and on the mountains, but there is hardly any snow on the stone road.

However, the further you go inside, the thicker the snow becomes, and it seems that the weather here is different from that of Magnolia City, and it seems colder.

When they turned Liudaowan and passed through several mountain passes, they finally saw the plum blossom villa hidden in the valley from a distance.

The exit of the Plum Blossom Villa is the entrance of the valley, on both sides are two seven or eight hundred meters high mountains, the mountains are dominated by pine trees, which are also mixed with some other trees, now they are all covered in snow, white and boundless, the mountain shape at the entrance is relatively steep, like a natural barrier.

At the foot of the hill on the right is a clear stream, about twelve meters wide, and at the exit of the valley a stone dam is barricaded with bluestones, so that a pool of water is about five or six meters deep.

Because it is winter, the water that flows out of the dam mouth is not large, but it flows slowly, and the sound of the water is almost inaudible.

There is a tall and magnificent archway on the side of the stone dam, on which are written four strong black characters - Plum Blossom Villa, which looks vigorous and powerful, the ancient meaning is full of meaning, it is from everyone's hands at a glance, but it is not settled, it is estimated that it is written by the civil official Zhou master himself.

There is a couplet written on the door on both sides -

"There are mountains on three sides, all of which are in the painting; A lifelong confidant is a plum blossom. ”

It can be seen that Mr. Zhou is indeed a person who loves plums, and he is also a tranquil old man who likes to live between mountains and rivers.

In the left side of the entrance of the archway, there is a three-room wooden building, and it is estimated that the old man who lived in it was the Zhou family who invited him to guard the Plum Blossom Villa.

As far as the eye can see, there are 36 buildings built in the valley, some are big, some are small, some are tall, some are short, some are exquisite, some are elegant, all give people a feeling of antiquity.

Between the buildings, there are trees planted in some places, bamboo forests in some places, rockeries and gardens in some places, ponds and small bridges in some places, interspersed in between, there are winding stone paths, and there will be pavilions for rest not far from each other.

At first glance, it is the pattern of a real big family.

At the back and on both sides of the building, the plum blossoms are planted, at this moment, the plum blossom tree that is crooked but vigorous and powerful, has been covered with thick white snow, and in the white snow is a cluster of delicate plum blossoms, blooming brightly, in the white snow it is more delicate, there are big red, there are pink, there are white, it is pleasing to the eye, it is gratifying.

Just standing and looking at it from a distance, Mu Qianmei immediately liked this place, and the others also showed joy.

Jade said excitedly:

"Miss, let's buy this villa, I like it very much."

The Tiger King smiled and said:

"It's nice here, it's so much better than in the city!"

Yue Qingyuan also praised softly:

"Sure enough, it's a quiet and elegant place to live!"

Even Bai Lingshan, who was a little scared before, couldn't help but say:

"It doesn't seem to be as scary as the legend says!"

Mu Qianmei looked at Liu Tingfeng and asked:

"Tingfeng, what do you think?"

Liu Tingfeng nodded and replied:

"A great place indeed!"

Mu Qianmei immediately said to Fang Wenxuan:

"Then please ask Brother Fang to help us contact the owner of Plum Blossom Villa, and say that Mu Qianmei from Xuelou is interested in buying this villa."

Fang Wenxuan said with a smile:

"I guess you guys will like it, presumably the request to write a plum blossom poem is just a matter of convenience for Miss Mu!"

"By the way, do we need to go in and have a look now?"
