The White Bird King sat on the top seat, and there was a vacancy on his left and right, but Yao Ju and Xuan Xuan were not seated, which made it difficult for Yao Li: the mortal world is respected by the right, and she, as the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven, should sit on the right side according to the etiquette system;

She hesitated for a long time, and then she heard the White Bird King say, "High priest, please be seated." ”

She had no choice but to walk forward, when someone behind her gently tugged at her sleeve, and as soon as she turned around, she heard someone say, "Don't be nervous, just sit on the right seat of your father." ”

When Yaohuan heard that it was Xuanxuan's voice, she was very grateful, stepped forward, and sat on the empty seat on the right hand side of the Baili King according to her words.

Xuan Yu sat on the left seat, and Xuan Yu was unable to attend the banquet because of his young age.

King Baili smiled and introduced to everyone in the banquet: "This is the heavenly daughter sent by the divine realm to help my Baili clan, and she is also the high priest of my Baili clan. ”

During the banquet, everyone knew the attitude of the Baili King towards Yaohuan, and they also had a bottom in their hearts: the divine realm sent the high priest down, and the Baili clan was saved, and they didn't have to worry about the flood and the affairs of the demon world.

Yaohuan definitely didn't know that everyone of the Baili clan was pinning all their hopes on her at this time, but what about her, she herself didn't know what she wanted to do, what she could do, and what she could do when she came to the Baili clan from the divine realm.

During the banquet, everyone came to toast, Yaowan drank a few more cups of fruit syrup, and then excused herself by saying that she had drunk too much and wanted to go out for a walk. ”

Yao couldn't ask for it, so she hurriedly responded: "Then it's a loss." ”

The two walked out one after the other, and when they were far away from the banquet hall, Yao Yao hurriedly turned around and thanked Xuan Xuan behind her: "Fang Cai, thank you very much." ”

Xuan Ying nodded slightly, and replied casually: "Hmm." ”

Yaohuan didn't know how to answer, so she had to not speak.

The two of them walked on the bluestone road for a long time, and stopped in front of a bamboo house that looked a hundred times more delicate than other houses, Xuan Xuan raised his hand and pointed to the bamboo house and said: "This is your residence, the bamboo house is simple, it will definitely not be as good as your residence in the god realm, if you don't dislike it, live first." They are the girls who serve you, and if you lack something, tell them. ”

Yaowan looked at his hand, and then saw the two little girls standing next to the bamboo house, she hurriedly waved her hand and said: "I don't need so many people to serve, I'm used to being alone, and suddenly there are so many people, I will be uncomfortable." ”

Xuan Xuan looked at them, stretched out his hand and pointed to the little girl on the left, and said, "You stay to take care of the high priest's daily life." Then he glanced at the little girl on his right, and continued, "Go back to where you came from." ”

The two of them bent down together and replied, "Yes." ”

Seeing that Xuanxuan had made a decision, Yaohuan had no choice but to nod and no longer refuse.

Before leaving, Xuan Xuan said, "You rest first, and we'll talk about the flood tomorrow morning." ”

Yaohuan replied, "Okay." ”

A little girl in front of the bamboo house followed Xuan Xuan away, and when she saw Xuan Xuan walking away, the little girl who had just been selected by Xuan Xuan to stay stepped forward and wanted to take off the burden on Yao Xuan's body.

Yaohuan was startled, and hurriedly said, "No need, I'll just take it myself." ”

The woman smiled and said, "High Priest, come with me." ”

In order to ease the atmosphere, Yaohuan began to find words and said, "What's your name?"

The woman pushed the door of the bamboo house open and replied, "Bai Qi." ”

Yaowan nodded and said, "Your name is very good, who gave it to you?"

"It's Prince Xuanxuan. She explained, "As soon as I was born, my parents died, and it was Prince Xuan Xuan who saved me, took me here, and gave me a new name. ”

Yaojuan asked, "This prince of yours doesn't seem to like to talk much?"

Bai Qian led Yaojuan into the bamboo house and said, "Prince Xuanyu's mother died many years ago, and he didn't like to contact outsiders or talk from that time. ”

Yaojuan echoed: "So that's the case. ”

Bai Ji made the bed and said, "High priest, everything is cleaned up here, you rest early, if there is anything to call me, I will guard outside." ”

Yao Yao hurriedly said: "No need, you can also go and rest, when I sleep, I don't like people next to me." ”

Bai Qi had no choice but to nod and said, "Then you have a good rest, I won't bother." With that, she withdrew and closed the door of the bamboo house.

Yaojuan breathed a sigh of relief, put the burden on the couch, got up and looked at the display in the room: the bed, dressing table, and bookcase should be made of nanmu, the tables and chairs are the same as this room, they are all made of bamboo, and the wood carved screen in front of the couch looks delicate and luxurious, but Yaojuan can't see what material it is.

Purple curtains hung down on both sides of the bed, and she opened the wardrobe next to it, and several clothes worn by mortal women were neatly stacked in the closet.

She turned around and opened the bag on the bed, took out a few pieces of clothing from her bag, put them aside, and then stuffed them inside.

When I washed up and cleaned up, I couldn't sleep when I was lying on the couch.

She rolled over, put on silk shoes, put on another garment, and pushed open the door of the bamboo house.

The moon sprinkled clear light, shrouded the entire mortal world below, the night breeze was silent, blowing quietly and quietly, the bluestone steps at the door were also like a layer of silver gauze, Yaojuan was attracted by this scene, and suddenly wanted to know where the stone steps at the door led, so she stepped on it lightly.

She identified a direction, and after turning left and right several times in succession, an octagonal pavilion appeared in front of her.

Next to the pavilion was an open field, a few steps away, was a small flower garden, and not far away there was a tree, which looked a little old, and the thickest trunk was tied with a few strong rattans, and the swing was slowly swaying with the breeze.

When Yaohuan was staring at the swing in a daze, there was a crisp bump of cups and plates in the pavilion, she stepped back and asked vigilantly, "Who?"

Perhaps remembering that she was a fairy, she was bold enough to take a closer look.

The man in the pavilion held a wine bottle in his hand, and raised his head when he heard the footsteps.

Yaojiao breathed a sigh of relief: it turned out to be Xuanxuan.

She took a closer look at the sky, looked at Xuan Xuan and asked, "It's so late, why don't you rest?"

Xuan Xuan didn't speak, only raised his finger and pointed to the stone bench opposite, and Yao Yao walked over and sat down.

Yaohuan said: "I can't sleep well, come out for a walk." ”

Xuan Xuan's face was like a cloud rising in the sky at dusk, as if he was drunk, but when Yao Juan saw his clear eyes, he was clearly sober, and he gently shook the half of the wine bottle in his hand and said, "What were you doing when you were sixteen?"

Yaohuan thought about it desperately, and then shook her head: "I don't remember, when I remember, I was already thousands of years old." ”

Xuan Xuan's movements froze, put down half of the wine, picked up the wine jug and filled it, took another wine bottle, poured half a glass of wine, and pushed it in front of Yaojuan.

Yaowan glanced at him hesitantly, and reached out to pick up the wine bottle.

Looking at Xuan Xuan's expression, he seemed to be in a bad mood, and Yao Yao opened his mouth and asked, "Is it for the flood?"

Xuan Xuan glanced at her deeply, as if she couldn't understand Yaojuan's words: "What did you say?"

Yaohuan repeated: "Are you worried about the flood?"

Xuan Ying smiled and did not answer.

Yao Wan said persistently: "It's not for this, why is that?"

Xuan Ying asked, "How do you know I'm upset?"

Yaowan thought for a while: "I heard the master say that people in the mortal world drink alcohol in no more than two situations, when the spring breeze is proud, drink with others, and when frustrated and sad, one person is drunk alone. You drink alone in the middle of the night under the cold moon and cool breeze, unlike the former, you can only be the latter. ”

Xuan Xuan drank all the wine in his hand, put down the wine cup, and laughed.

His smile made Yaojiao's heart feel bottomless, and she asked cautiously: "What, I said it wrong?"

Xuan Xuan said: "First, I am drinking here, but you are also here, so I am not drinking alone; second, pride and frustration are just a thought; third, no matter how powerful the magic of the gods is, they can't see through people's hearts, and you may not know what I am thinking at this time."

Yao Wan said in her heart: Nonsense, I'm not you, how do you know what you think in your heart?

She originally wanted to thank him for helping her at the banquet today, but after hearing Xuan Ying's words, she held back all the words of thanks.

He kept pouring wine, and after a while, the wine in the jug was bottoming out, and Xuanxuan, who was still very sober before, fell headlong on the stone table in just a quarter of an hour.

Yaowan stood up and pushed him hard, Xuan Xuan didn't react at all, and when she was thinking about whether to use a spell to summon a thunderbolt above his head, Xuan Xuan, who was drunk into a puddle of mud, grabbed her arm violently and whispered, "Mother...... Mother, I'm sorry. ”

Yaojuan was startled, but she couldn't pull her arm back, so she could only let him pull it, an hour later, Yaojuan finally got a little sleepy, she thought about it for a long time, and decided to hand over the hot potato in front of her to others, but she heard a sound of footsteps from far and near.

She was frightened, you know, this is in the mortal realm, it is late at night, to let others see her staying with this mortal in an unclear place, even if she has dozens of more mouths, she can't say clearly.

She was in a hurry, used a stealth spell, and stood sideways to the side, while the Xuan Xuan in front of the stone table lost its support and fell to the ground.

A few waiters came not far away, stepped forward to help Xuan Xuan up, and carried him away.

Yaohuan thought about what Xuan Ying looked like before leaving, and couldn't close her mouth with a smile.

She returned to the bamboo hut and lay on the couch for a while, the sky outside was getting brighter, she turned over, and only then did she get dressed, Bai Qi opened the door of the bamboo hut and walked in with a basin of water.

Yaohuan washed her face and asked casually, "Is Xuanxuan up?" I said yesterday that I would discuss the matter of the flood. ”

Bai Qi replied lightly: "The prince has drunk too much and hasn't gotten up yet." ”

Yaohuan pretended to be surprised: "Drink too much?"

Bai Qi handed the twisted handkerchief to Yaojuan and explained: "Yesterday was the death day of Prince Xuanxuan's biological mother, he was in a bad mood, he drank a few more cups, I am afraid that he will not wake up until the afternoon, if the high priest has something to look for him, I am afraid he can only wait until the afternoon." ”

Yaojuan thought back to the situation last night, and then she knew why Xuan Xuan would make such a seemingly strange move.

Yaohuan thought about it for a while, and asked with some hesitation: "Then his mother is ......?"

Bai Qi sighed and shook his head: "We only heard that the death of Prince Xuanxuan's mother is related to the people of the demon clan, and other things are not very clear because the king does not allow them to discuss in private." ”

Yaohuan said to herself: "No wonder, when I saw him last night, he kept pouring himself wine, it turned out to be because of this incident." ”

Bai Qian stopped what she was doing and stared at her intently, as if something strange had been stained on her face.

Yaohuan noticed the inquiring gaze on her face, straightened up and asked, "What are you staring at me all the time?"

Bai Qi stared at her seriously and asked, "Did the high priest see Prince Xuanxuan last night?"

Yao Yao hurriedly denied: "Ahh

Bai Qi leaned over: "I just heard the high priest say that I saw Prince Xuanxuan drinking last night. ”

Yaowan waved her hand and denied it unnaturally: "How could I have said that? It must be that you haven't woken up yet, and you heard it wrong." ”

Bai Qian was still unsatisfied, and wanted to ask something, so Yaohuan hurriedly picked up her magic weapon and ran out.

In the early morning of the mortal realm, the birds of the forest chirped in the branches, and the clouds quietly climbed into the sky, urging the sleeping earth to wake up early.

Yaowan stretched her waist and stepped on the clouds, intending to take a look around to get a sense of the environment around the white bird.

The flooding at the foot of the mountain was obviously getting worse, but in the past half a day, the water level had risen several inches, and at this rate, in less than half a month, the flood could swallow up the top of the mountain where the Baili people lived.

This is really an imminent trouble for Yaohuan, with her current spell, she can't control the Fire Spirit Bead, and the cause of the flood has not been found so far, and less than a hundred miles away from this, there is a demon world that is not a friend or foe, these troubles collide together, I am afraid that it can be annoying for ordinary people for several lifetimes, even if she is a fairy, she is a little unbearable now.

I walked around the mountain, and when I returned to the Baili tribe, it was already a few hours later.

When Yaojuan went back, there was already someone waiting in front of the bamboo house, but it was not Xuanyu who had made an appointment with her, but the second prince of the Baili clan who was clamoring to say anything about learning magic from her yesterday, Xuanyu.

Yaohuan hurriedly greeted her with a smile: "Why is the second prince here?"

Xuan Yu held a shiny shell in his hand and shook it vigorously in front of her: "I'm here to learn spells from you." ”

He was still thinking about this? Yao Liang began to regret desperately, why did he promise to teach him spells yesterday.

She rubbed the corners of her forehead a little sadly, planning to pretend to be confused: "Did the second prince remember wrongly? I promised to teach you the technique, but I also said, not now, you have to wait until you grow up, I still have something to do, you go back first." ”

When Xuanyu heard this, he sat on the ground and played Lai: "No, I have to learn, if you don't teach me, I will tell everyone that you just bullied me." ”

Yao Wan was stunned in place, at this moment, sitting on the ground Xuanyu, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, he unscrewed the lid, raised his head, and brought the porcelain bottle to the corner of his eye, and several drops of water immediately dripped out of the bottle, and after that, he skillfully screwed the lid on and stuffed the bottle back into his arms.

After he had done all this calmly, he grinned and howled.

Yaojuan was at a loss for a moment, and hurriedly stepped forward to cover his mouth, compromising and said, "Okay, I promise you, I'll teach you the technique." ”

Xuanyu instantly rained and the sky cleared, he raised his sleeve and wiped his face, stood up and smiled: "If you had agreed earlier, I wouldn't have had to work so hard." When are we going to learn spells?"

Yaohuan gritted her teeth and said, "What do you want to learn?"

Xuanyu thought about it seriously: "I want to learn the best!"

Yaohuan shook her head: "No, you can only learn some of the most superficial techniques now, and when you can learn some simple techniques, I will teach you the rest." ”

Xuanyu hurriedly agreed: "Okay, I'll listen to you, you teach me quickly." ”

Yaowan thought for a long time before she said: "Before learning the technique, the first thing you have to do is to concentrate and calm down, you go back to your own room first, and meditate quietly for two hours. ”

Xuanyu exclaimed, "Two hours?"

Yaojuan nodded and said, "If you want to learn, you have to do what I say, if you can't even complete this, then even if I teach you other techniques, you won't be able to learn it." ”

Xuanyu thought seriously for a while, and said firmly: "Okay, then I'll go, and when I'm done, you are not allowed to cheat." ”

Yaowan nodded indifferently.

Xuanyu hurriedly left along the bluestone road, and glanced back at Yao Wan when he left.

After sending away the Xuan Domain, Yao Jiao is much more relaxed, the child is very active and playful, the most difficult to concentrate his thoughts, he has to complete the motionless two hours, at least he has to practice for several months, at least in these few months, he will not come to bother Yao Jiao again.

Yaohuan was just about to enter the bamboo house when someone stopped her: "High priest." ”

When she heard the voice and turned around, she saw Xuan Xuan with a bruised forehead.

She said politely, "Prince Xuanxuan is awake?"

Xuan Xuan raised his hand and saluted: "I'm sorry, I drank some wine last night and almost made a mistake, and I hope the high priest will not blame." ”

Xuan Ying was polite, and Yao Jiao could only follow politely, she smiled and said: "It's okay, it's just right, I went out to see the situation of the floods everywhere, and then came back from outside." ”

Xuan Xuan asked, "But what progress has there been?"

Yaohuan had no choice but to tell the truth: "I have already thought of a way to cure the flood, but it will take some time and I still need to prepare some things." ”

Xuan Ying's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly asked, "Really, then I thank the high priest on behalf of the Baili clan." ”

Yao Wan replied weakly: "Yes, yes, Prince Xuanxuan is too polite." "It seems too early to say thank you.

Yaohuan already had an idea in her heart, but the method she came up with sounded a little stupid, and she hoped it would be useful.
