On the second day, the five of them got up and came to the restaurant, Zhuang Zhaoxue saw that Zhao Xi's eyes were dark, and asked, "Senior Brother Zhao, didn't you sleep well last night?" Zhao Xi shook his head: "No, sleep well." Zhuang Zhaoxue said to Liu Zhaohui again: "Senior brother, I want to go back to Rizhao with Senior Sister Yan today, so as not to worry Master, you just wait for news here." Liu Zhaohui nodded, but heard Zhao Xi say, "I'll go back too." ”

"I'm not going back!" Liu Hanyan shouted loudly. "Who won't go back?" But it was Lin Meiying who walked in, and everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted. Liu Hanyan said hurriedly: "Aunt Lin, I won't go back, I want to play here for a few days, so I don't have to go home and be scolded by my father." Lin Meiying said with a smile: "It's rare for you all to come once, don't rush back, I will arrange for three peaches and four peaches to go to Rizhao today, go to report safety first, let's wait here for a few days, and then talk about the situation." ”

Liu Hanyan hugged Lin Meiying: "Aunt Lin will arrange it." Lin Meiying patted her face: "Yan'er, okay, okay, you have breakfast quickly, and I'll take you back to the main altar after that." Liu Hanyan clapped his hands and smiled: "Okay, Aunt Lin, why do I suddenly like you so much." The crowd laughed.

Yuntai Mountain on the sea, located in the sea ten miles east of Haizhou City, Su Dongpo once praised and said: "The lush cangwu sea mountain, Penglai abbot has no intermittent existence." The old smell of plants and trees are all immortal medicines, and I want to abandon my wife and children to keep the market. At this moment, a painting boat was rowed on the sea. In the painting boat, Lin Meiying, Liu Zhaohui, Zhao Xi, and Liu Hanyan are sitting around the round table and sipping peach blossom tea.

Wang Hou stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the blue sea. The first time he saw such a magnificent sea, his heart was stretched, and he almost had to carry the greenstone in his shoes, speeding on this sea, holding back the agitation in his heart, and shaking it gently with a folding fan. Liu Hanyan walked out, tapped his head with a folding fan in his hand, and asked: "Nerd, that day in Tongling, you were in a daze at the Yangtze River, I said what is beautiful about this river, if you come to us and see the sea, your eyes will fall into the sea...... Isn't that wrong? ”

Wang Hou didn't look back, and stretched out his hand to point to the sea in the distance: "Yan'er, what's on the other side of the sea?" Liu Hanyan looked in the direction of his finger: "It's still the sea." Wang Hou shook his head and said: "Zheng He has gone to the Western Ocean five times, and he is preparing to go to the Western Ocean for the sixth time, and it is definitely not just the sea over there." ”

The boat traveled for less than an hour, and when it arrived at the cloud platform, more than a dozen women in pink dresses greeted them and bowed in unison: "Meet the sect leader!" Lin Meiying nodded, led everyone, and walked up the mountain road, but saw that the mountains were long, the trees were luxuriant, and there were unknown birds chirping in the forest, which was even more secluded.

After walking less than a mile, you will see the wall that is more than two zhang high, the wall is painted with peach trees, the trees are full of peach blossoms, and outside the wall are mostly pine and cypress and tall sycamores. Along a stone road, the people entered the fence, but they saw rows of houses built facing south, and the yard was full of peach trees, which were already hung with peaches and glowing red.

The five of them came here for the first time, and the last time Liu Zhaohui and the four of them went to Nanjing to do business, they only stayed in Haizhou City for two days and did not go up the mountain. Everyone was sniffing the fresh air at this time, and they were very comfortable.

Lin Meiying said with a smile: "This is where the main altar of my sect is located, you can play casually, go out from that small gate, and then go up to the Jade Girl Peak, the scenery along the way is not bad." Just remember not to go deeper, otherwise you will be in trouble if you encounter a peach blossom miasma. Looking at Liu Hanyan again, "Yan'er, you come with me, I have something to ask you." Turning around and walking towards the main hall, Liu Hanyan hurriedly followed.

Zhuang Zhaoxue looked at Liu Zhaohui: "Senior brother, I want to go to the peach blossom forest below to see if the detoxification beads have any effect." Liu Zhaohui nodded: "Okay, the opportunity is rare, I'll accompany you." He said to Zhao Xi and Wang Houdao, "Aunt Lin said just now, the peach blossom forest is dangerous, you two can just take a look here." With that, he walked out of the small door of the wall with Zhuang Zhaoxue.

Wang Hou and Zhao Xi were standing on the grass, Wang Hou knew that he was difficult to get along with, and he had nothing to say for a while, and after a while, he asked, "Brother Zhao, why don't we go to the Jade Girl Peak above to have a look?" Zhao Xi frowned, nodded and said, "It's okay." The two of them went out of the small gate and climbed along a path to the mountain, along the way you can see flowing springs and waterfalls, and the scenery is extremely beautiful. On the top of the Jade Girl Peak, standing on the top, the sea breeze blows in the face, and at the feet, the sea water laps against the rocks, rolling up a high wave.

Wang Hou looked at all this curiously, and his mood was even more comfortable. Suddenly, Zhao Xi asked, "Brother Wang, where have you and Senior Sister Yan been these days?" Wang Hou sighed: "Yan'er wants to see Dumb, it's a very big turtle, so I took her to see it." Zhao Xi was silent for a moment and asked, "Brother Wang, I want to tell a story, do you want to listen to it?" Wang Hou smiled: "Okay, Brother Zhao can also tell stories?" ”

Zhao Xi looked at the sea, as if he was reminiscing and sorting out his thoughts, and said slowly: "Twenty-four years ago, there was a boy born in a fishing village by the sea, there were only a few families in that fishing village, when the little boy was three years old, his father went to the sea to fish, but he encountered sea fog, and the fog did not know where it came from, and the person who met immediately fainted, and the little boy's father fainted and fell into the sea and never returned home. The boy's mother washed her face with tears all day long, and eventually died of depression. The little boy cried and cried, attracting a passing youth.

"The young man was a hall master of the Sun Sect, and later the little boy learned that this young man was also poisoned by the sea fog, but he was much luckier, and he fell on the boat, drifted for I don't know how many days, and was rescued. Three months later, when he was healed from his injuries and rushed back, he heard the little boy crying and saw that the little boy was still lying on his dead mother's body, and the young man couldn't bear it, so he buried the little boy's mother hastily, took him back to the Sun Sect, raised him and taught him martial arts. ”

Wang Hou sighed: "Brother Zhao, this little boy is you, and that young man is the leader of the Liu Sect?" Zhao Xi nodded, and was silent for a long time: "I have never said so many things once in my life, and I say it now, just to tell you, Brother Wang, I want to do my filial piety for my master and become a member of the Liu family." So...... Please forgive me! After saying that, a sudden palm slapped out, Wang Hou was caught off guard and fell off the cliff.

In the main hall, Lin Meiying pointed to the chair: "Yan'er, you sit down." But his eyes were red and tears flowed. Liu Hanyan asked in shock, "Aunt Lin, what's wrong with you?" Lin Meiying asked: "Yan'er, you will be twenty years old in three months, I remember that your birthday is the ninth day of August." ”

"Aunt Lin, how do you know?" "Yan'er, the last time you went to Nanjing with Hui'er and your senior brother and sister, you only stayed with me for two days, I really wanted to keep you for a few more days, but...... Aunt Lin, Aunt Lin is really sorry for you. ”

"Aunt Lin, what are you talking about, the last time we came, you treated me very well, Senior Sister Xue also said that you are like my mother."

Lin Meiying's eyes were even redder, and she hesitated for a while, and said, "Yan'er, Aunt Lin...... I—I'm your mother. Liu Han stood up in a smoky manner and asked in surprise, "What?" Aunt Lin, are you my mother? ”

Lin Meiying choked up, couldn't cry after a while, and after a while, she said slowly: "Yan'er, twenty-one years ago in mid-August, there was a high temperature for several days, and the weather was ridiculously hot. One morning, many people went out to sea, but suddenly there was a great fog on the sea, and when the fog touched, people would be suffocated until they died. On the other side of Rizhao, a young man from the Sun Sect was also poisoned by the sea fog. ”

Liu Han snorted, and Lin Meiying continued: "Yan'er, listen to me...... The young man lay on the boat, drifted with the current, and drifted on the sea for five or six days, and finally drifted to the foot of this Yuntai Mountain. On that day, a incense master of the Peach Blossom Sect was practicing swords on the Jade Maiden Peak, and saw a small boat floating on the sea in the distance, so he went down the mountain to inspect, only to see that the young man was dying, and the incense master had been on this mountain for many years, and he knew that he had been poisoned by the sea fog, and immediately carried the man to the mountain, detoxified him and took care of him.

Although the young hall master drifted on the sea for many days, he soon woke up, he was grateful to the incense master, but because the poisoning was too deep, the two got along together for two months, and unconsciously gave birth to feelings, the incense master knew that the young man had a wife, but he was still ...... Done something stupid.

"The scale of the Peach Blossom Sect was not large at that time, there were only four or five hundred people in total, and the sect leader did not object to saving people, but when the incense master told her that she wanted to marry the hall master, she was very angry and resolutely refused to agree. The young man knelt before the great hall and pleaded again and again, but the leader still did not agree, and drove him down the mountain.

"But the stupid thing has been done, ten months later, a baby girl was born, fortunately during that time the sect leader went to Wu Sizang to look for rose salt. The incense lord knew that the paper could not contain the fire, if the sect leader came back, the child would be difficult to live, during that time, the young man often came quietly to the bottom of the mountain, but he could not come up, so the incense lord asked the very good sister Qin Shizhen to hand over the child to the young man. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Meiying had already burst into tears, hugging Liu Hanyan: "Yan'er, that baby girl is you, that young man is Liu Yaotian, I, I am the master of incense...... Over the years, I often go to Rizhao and quietly hide from the side to watch you, I ...... I really can't bear to spoil their husband and wife, and I don't have the courage to see you. ”

Liu Hanyan also cried at this time: "Aunt Lin, I'm ...... My mother passed away two years ago, why aren't you still with my father? ”
