Chapter 23 - Ji Yuan

"Why do you want me to pay compensation?" Qingkou complained angrily.

At this time, they had already left Yaoguang Mountain Yin City and were slowly heading towards Fuyu Mountain.

"The ancients: I am doing my best to help you lighten your burden, boy!" Su Xiao smiled, "I'm for your good......"

"This is what the ancients who lacked eyes said......"

Ziqi jumped and followed, and from time to time leaned down to pick a half-opened bud: "Su Xiao, I heard that Taihu Lake has been flooded recently, I don't know if Fuyu Mountain has been implicated......

"That's not a big problem, but Fuyu Mountain is almost a barren mountain, and the wild demons in the mountain are very dangerous, so you should be careful. He glanced at Qingkou, "Especially someone, don't end it before it starts." ”

"Don't worry. Qing Kou glared at him resentfully and said angrily.

......

Fuyu Mountain is a winding mountain with a forest. The beauty of its scenery lives up to its name. There are naturally formed stone steps in the mountains, lined with tall trees, and the air is moist and fresh. It is said that in this mountain, there is a hermit named Ji Yuan, and he is also the only guardian of the red candle jade fruit tree in the world. Ziqi and his entourage made this trip to visit this hermit, Ji Yuan.

"That's what it is...... Ji Yuan's residence?" "Fuyu Mountain is steep, and after climbing for a while, Ziqi is tired and out of breath.

A low thatched house in front of them stood out in front of them, looking quaint but warm and elegant.

“...... Look at this retreat, it looks like a public toilet. Qing Kou opened his mouth and sneered.

"Hmm......" Su Xiao looked around at the thatched house, suddenly frowned, and finally came to the final conclusion, "This thatched house...... It's a public toilet!"

Qingkou: "......"

......

It's another long climb. This time, even Qingkou and Su Xiao began to lose their breath. At this moment, Crimson was lying peacefully in a bamboo basket, and this bamboo basket was carried by Qing Kou.

"I'm sorry......" a voice came from the bamboo basket, "It's me who makes you so tired, it's all ......"

Qingkou wiped his sweat and smiled at him, "Since you are a partner, why do you say sorry or something?"

“...... Well. ”

At this moment, Ziqi, who was walking in front, shouted: "Look, we're here!"

Looking straight in front of the view, you will see a small farm yard surrounded by a bamboo fence. The courtyard was quiet and peaceful, and from time to time a few crisp birdsongs could be heard from it.

With a leisurely plucking of the strings, the sound of the piano slowly came from the room. Accompanied by the sound of birds, melodious and beautiful, tactfully turning back to the ring, like a nine-winding mountain road, twisting and turning, making people feel intoxicated.

The sound of the wind in the mountains and trees, and the sound of the murmuring pond and stream, the qin and the return wind, the forest leaves tremble, and the fragrance is cleansed.

The sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and they came back to their senses. It seems that just now I just had an illusory dream, and now the dream has just broken and I have opened my eyes and woken up.

"This is "Mountains and Flowing Water", right?" asked Su Xiao.

"That's right. A person slowly walked out of the room, his long black hair looked very resolute, and his coarse clothes of short cloth were particularly spiritual.

"Are you Mr. Ji Yuan?" asked Su Xiao respectfully.

He nodded slightly: "That's right, it's me, the guardian of Fuyu Mountain." ”

"Come in. He opened the door and stepped into the room, leaving only three words.

It's arrogant. Ziqi thought secretly.

"Why are you visiting me?" asked Ji Yuan leisurely as he invited them to sit down.

"Uh......" Su Xiao was a little uneasy, "It's mainly because I have admired the name for a long time, so I came to visit...... Second...... I want to lend you a red candle jade fruit. ”

"The second one is the most important. He said without looking up.

Su Xiao had nothing to say for a while, so he had to smile awkwardly.

"I'm sorry to say no. Ji Yuan stood up and waved his hand, "Let's leave after drinking tea." ”

"Mr. Ji Yuan......" Su Xiao was just about to speak, but he forcibly stopped him.

"Don't talk too much, you know, I'm a little short-tempered. ”
