Chapter 409: Valley in the Rain
The two of them, with an umbrella, took advantage of the night rain to leave the original room and began to walk deeper into the island.
Even in the middle of the night, there are no less guards on Pear Island, and the deeper you go, the tighter they become.
Although Shangguan Li and Xuanyuan Ye could avoid these guards, it would take a bit too much time, and they were not familiar with the terrain here after all, so it would be even more troublesome if they accidentally stepped on some traps.
So at Xuanyuan Ye's suggestion, the two of them didn't hide their traces along the way.
When encountering interrogators, Shangguan Li is responsible for shutting up and making a quiet beauty lamp, and Xuanyuan Ye is responsible for talking to people and talking about ghosts.
Shangguan Li listened to it on the side, which probably meant that there were some big people on Pear Island who took a fancy to her beauty and asked people to bring people over overnight.
Originally, the guards were only skeptical when they heard this, so they had to wait for verification before letting them go.
But as soon as Xuanyuan Ye said the word "Lijiu", these guards all changed their faces and stopped them, just wishing they could leave quickly.
This set of rhetoric Xuanyuan Night has changed slightly when facing guards in different places, but the core is the word "Riku".
Later, Shangguan Li was a little curious.
"Who is Riku?"
The two of them walked for a while, and they had left the edge, and the terrain gradually went up, and the two sides of the road were planted with pear blossoms, petals like snow, and the rain knocked them to the ground, becoming a pure white carpet that winded upward.
Xuanyuan Ye tilted the umbrella in his hand to Shangguan Li's side a few more points, and then said.
"It's said to be a benefactor of Pear Blossom Shadow.,No one knows what his real name is.,People on the island call him Riku.。 Pear Blossom Shadow is basically obedient to him, and he is more pro-son than his own son. ”
"So some people say that it is an unknown illegitimate son of Pear Blossom Shadow, who loves beauty the most in his life, and it is said that people who look a little beautiful on the island are basically abrupt by him."
"Hmm."
Shangguan Li understood.
"So this kind of thing isn't uncommon for Riku?"
Xuanyuan Ye shook his head.
"It's still quite unusual, after all, the first night of Pear Island is definitely still based on stabilizing people's hearts. Even Riku, if you have a goal, you have to wait until the next day to do it. ”
"I ...... Hiss. ”
Shangguan Li just wanted to ask why these guards would let them go so easily, but the next second he realized what Xuanyuan Ye was going to say.
Before the sound could be heard, goosebumps arose.
Xuanyuan looked at her with a smile, his eyes that were a little darker and darker than the night had already said all the unspoken words.
Because she was born so beautiful, so beautiful that those guards felt that with Riku's character, they would definitely not be in a hurry to see someone like her.
The two of them climbed a small hill in silence, and there were several large pear blossom trees on the top of the mountain, one pear blossom, and petals all over the ground.
However, none of this compares to the valley under the mountain pack.
The valley is full of pear blossoms, Shangguan Li saw the real sea of flowers for the first time, the wind blew, the white waves swelled and undulated, and occasionally a few petals escaped the hit of the raindrops and floated into the air, only to make people realize that it was a sea of flowers.
Just by looking at it, Shangguan Li could imagine what kind of scene it would be like if it was a sunny day.
And in this dense sea of wind and flowers, there is a faint fire in the middle of the valley.
Xuanyuan Ye tugged at her sleeve.
"Let's go, let's see."
Shangguan Li followed him for some reason.
"Wait, can we be so high-profile?"
"It's okay, it's safe here."
Shangguan Li couldn't imagine how he could have such a large "safe place" on an island he had never been to before.
The pace of the two of them going down the mountain was obviously much faster, and as soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, because of the lush flowers and trees overhead, Shangguan Li felt that the wind and rain were much lighter.
There was a path in front of him, which seemed to be rarely manicured, and even weeds grew in the corners and cracks, but there were floor-to-ceiling glass lamps on both sides of the path.
The lights illuminated the way, and the two walked all the way to the end.
Shangguan Li stopped, and then slowly opened his eyes.
In front of him was a delicately furnished wooden house, warm lights shining through it, and in front of the wooden house, there was a small wooden table, which was now almost wet.
Opposite the wooden table, about a foot away, there was an equally small hot spring, the surface of which was already covered with pear blossom petals.
If Shangguan Li had fantasized about what the Peach Blossom Land looked like when he was a teenager, it should be like this.
"There are clean clothes in the house, you go and wash them first, this body has just been fished out of the water."
Xuanyuan Ye said, and pushed her to the front of the wooden house without saying anything.
"What about you?"
"See this?"
Suddenly, he dragged a large screen from the back of the hut, and then lay it between the hot spring and the wooden table.
"Beauty bathes, of course the gentleman should not be rude."
Shangguan Li sneered.
"If you are also a gentleman, all the scholars in the world will go to apologize to Kong Zhongqiu."
"Tsk, I don't know the hearts of good people."
As he spoke, one flew into the cabin, and after a few moments, came out with a box and a soft chair.
The box was handed to Shangguan Li, and the soft chair was placed in front of the screen.
"Go ahead, this is not your own territory after all, what if someone breaks in without opening their eyes?"
Shangguan Lixin said that even if this is the case, she can handle it with one hand, and in this situation now, the most dangerous thing is Xuanyuan Night.
She snorted, but took the box anyway, and when she opened it, it was a suit of similar colors and styles to the one she had on hers.
The rain at night was imperceptibly lighter, and after being blocked by layers of petals and leaves, it was not as good as a drizzle when it fell on Shangguan Li's head.
Her whole body leaned into the hot spring, and she didn't feel it before, but when she relaxed, she suddenly felt like she was finally alive again.
There are so many things to think about this day.
After leaving the palace, the clammy and cold sticky and greasy feeling on her body finally dissipated with the warm and comfortable hot spring water, and even she felt that the injuries on her body were a little better.
The exhaustion of being late almost overwhelmed her.
Fortunately, she remembered that there was another person here, and she pulled herself together to talk to the person behind the screen.
"Lord Wang, this is the deal you negotiated in the wine house?"
Xuanyuanye's voice was separated by a layer of screens, a little more low and hoarse, which was extremely good.
"I can't hide it from you."
"The person you see is Pear Blossom Shadow."
She used an affirmative sentence.
The passage leading directly to Pear Island in the sake brewery can carve out such a place where no one disturbs Pear Island, and there is only one person who can do this.
