As he spoke, he carefully picked up the "Qiong Tiandian": "Look, this cake ......"

Seeing this, Poinsettia Mei also carefully reached out to pick it up: "I see, this cake ......"

However, the purple rice cake is extremely soft and glutinous. At the moment when Jue Tongjun let go, before the poinsettia plum could hold it firmly, the soft rice cake fell down, and the "pop" fell into a lump of mud.

“……”

“……”

The two of them sat and stared at the ground, and an atmosphere of solemnity pervaded.

After being silent for a long time, Jue Tongjun's heart was still dripping blood. But he still stretched out his finger tremblingly, pointed to the dark red rose pulp that flowed out of the broken cake, and said, "...... This is the proof. ”

Poinsettia Mei didn't know the origin of Jue Tongjun and Purple Rice Cake. He bent down to take a closer look, and soon found something different: "This kind of slurry is not common in the Three Realms Heaven. ”

As he spoke, he also took out the leather pocket that had been pinned to his waist and handed it to Jue Tongjun: "I also have their products here." At the moment, it seems that they are not doing any major harm except for the promotion of local commercial goods. ”

Jue Tongjun took the leather bag, pulled out the cork and sniffed it. The rich, fiery aroma of wine choked his nose, and he hurriedly returned the leather bag to Poinsettia Plum, and nodded heavily.

The snow was getting heavier and heavier outside. The two of them in the room fell silent for a moment, only the rustle of snow falling outside, small and wanton.

Both of them quickly made up their minds. Jue Tongjun took a long breath and raised his head: "I will notify the troops of the Qiongtian Temple scattered all over the country as soon as possible, so that they don't have to investigate first, and as soon as there is a situation, we will immediately take action." ”

Poinsettia has no objection to his approach. He also got up and looked at the lantern outside the hall that was blown by the cold wind: "That's good." In that case, I'm going to leave too. ”

"It's snowing outside, why don't you stay in Qiongtian Temple for a while." Jue Tongjun also stood up.

Poinsettia Mei shook her hand and said, "No need. Qiongmei is more prosperous in the wind and snow, and now is not the time for me to sit back and relax. You and I will keep in touch and keep you informed if there is a situation. ”

He strode to the door of the temple and put on his unmelted felt robe again. Glancing at the deep snow in the distant mountains, he plunged into it without looking back, and it was white.

The lantern fluttered, as if sending off a guest. Jue Tongjun walked to the door, looked at the back that was gradually moving away, and turned around.

However, as soon as he turned around, he saw the cherished pastries that were sparse, and he turned his head very reluctantly. But the wood is already in the boat, this year is not to enjoy, he hesitated for a moment, but still accepted this reality, and found a broom alone to clean the ground.

…………

And on the other side. The place where the boundary of heaven and earth is settled, and the Zhushan and Lujiang rivers exchange a little, which is the prosperous transportation center of Jinse.

The Dongjiang River can't suppress the exuberance and liveliness on both sides. The barges come and go, and the river is full of the reflection of boats. And outside the downtown area, there is a peaceful gate mansion, which is one of the rumored three major families, the Bai family.

When it snowed in the Nether, there was also a light snow in the early morning of Zhushan. Mixed with morning frost and cooking smoke, it blends into a warm scent that floats in the air.

It is also from the mountains and wilderness for a few days. Early this morning, a clear and tired sound of horses' hooves stepped through the market, accompanied by a breeze and cold snow, all the way back to the long-lost Bai family.

It's been a long time coming, of course, for Artemisia. Dongfang Shiming is actually the second time to come, and he is not too familiar.

The Bai family occupies a huge area, which is on par with the Oriental family. Dongfang Shiming only briefly recognized Bai Hao's family last time, and he didn't even know how many roads and houses there were inside.

"Ah, it's home!"

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Bai family, and before it could stop, Bai Artemisia jumped out of the car very excitedly, and then turned his head to wait for Dongfang Shiming.

Dongfang Shiming laughed with him, and then got out of the car.

The servants and guards of the Bai family were also very eager. Before the two of them could enter the door, they were seen by two guards guarding the door.

The two guards exchanged eyes and acted separately in a very tacit understanding. One turned to report it, and the other ran to greet the two of them enthusiastically.

"Ah, great, it's Miss back!"

The guards were beaming with joy and greeted the two of them. Bai Artemisia smiled helplessly in a rare way, and whispered to the guard, "Don't be so quiet, I've said it many times. ”

The guard was clearly unimpressed: "That can't be, it's our obligation." As he spoke, he shifted his gaze to Dongfang Shiming, "Moreover, even my aunt is here this time, hehe, hehe!" ”

Dongfang Shiming was a little overwhelmed by this sincere laughter. Bai Hao glared at the guards twice with tantrum eyes, and without saying a word, he pulled Dongfang Shiming to his house.

The second time he came, when Dongfang Shiming entered the door, he deliberately paid attention to the memory of the interior of the Bai family. However, as soon as the two entered the gate, they found that the familiar courtyard seemed to be a little different.

It doesn't seem appropriate to say it's lively. I saw that around the open courtyard, there were many high hanging wooden frames, on which some snow-white painting silks hung down. Some of them have already been painted in ink, and some of them have not yet been painted, and the brushwork style is different, and the style is very beautiful.

The ground in the courtyard is moist, and the silver gray of the thin snow makes the paintings more lush.

There were still some people around the courtyard who had never seen before, scattered and chatting. From what they said, it was obvious that it was extraordinary.

Dongfang Shiming was very puzzled by this, so he turned his gaze to the white artemisia beside him.

Bai Artemisia stretched her neck and looked at it for a while, and had an impression: "...... Well, I, I remember, our family has held a kind of art exhibition before, and it should be a kind of art exhibition......"

Elegance matters, for such a wealthy family is not surprising. Dongfang Shiming looked at it for a while and was able to understand.

Those people should be invited artists from all over the world. Listening to their discussions, most of them are discussions about the art of painting, and the paintings hanging in the courtyard should also be made by them.

In front of him are two opposite houses, and at the front is the Bai family's reception hall. The houses on both sides were very noisy, and it was supposed that the painters were painting in them, and there were painters coming in and out of it from time to time.

The two of them stood in place, and between looking at each other, they saw a handful of people dressed in fine clothes, walking straight towards them.

Dongfang Shiming saw them, and when he hesitated, Bai Artemisia had already taken the lead in recognizing them, and ran over happily:

"Dad, I'm back!"

Fortunately, Dongfang Shiming's reaction was not slow, and he also ran towards them after Bai Artemisia.

Surrounded by everyone in the middle was a rich little old man. The white beard has grown into a very distinctive appearance, and his eyes are squinted like a crescent moon bent down. Seeing his baby daughter come back, he was even more happy.

Although he doesn't look good, like a little boss who is not troubled by Lotte, he is indeed the rumored head of the Bai family, Bai De. He is known for his well-known business talents, and the Bai family is in full swing under his decades of control.
