Chapter 27: Cultivating the Immortal Mansion
Xiao Wu began to look under the bridge, and saw that there were some smooth stones and weeds inside, and it was obvious that this should be a dry waterway. If you can divert water to re-enter the waterway and raise some flowers and fish, the scenery will be very different! It is said that there is no water and no life, and there is indeed a lack of agility and elegance in the fairy mansion.
In the large venue, around the main hall, inside and outside the stone gate of Xianfu and on both sides of the mountain road, Xiao Wu carefully surveyed and measured the size.
Back in the room, Xiao Wu found a large piece of white silk and spread it on the ground, drew out the picture of the situation just inspected according to the size, marked the one he wanted to keep, and divided the picture into several small parts, numbered in turn. Start planning by number, and it is really clear what kind of trees, flowers, and stones are used.
Xiao Wu was busy, Zi Xiao and Gui Yan came, and saw her lying on the ground, drawing on a piece of white silk, Zi Xiao asked suspiciously: "Xiao Wu, what are you doing here?"
Xiao Wu only looked up and asked, "Oh, you two haven't been punished again, have you?"
"No, I was only scolded a few words by the prince's brother, Xiao Wu, let you be punished for the two of us, I ......", Guiyan also knew that Xiao Wu punished him and Zixiao for kneeling, and felt that he couldn't go, and wanted to say sorry but wanted to stop talking.
"It's fine if I don't, I've only been fined for a while, and it's fine."
Xiao Wu thought to herself that the prince was still trustworthy, and the matter of punishing her as a slave should also be in the past, Xiao Wu's tangled heart was completely relaxed.
Zi Xiao was careful, and when she saw Xiao Wu wearing the robe of a child attendant, she hurriedly asked, "Xiao Wu, why do you wear this kind of robe?"
Xiao Wu explained disapprerovingly: "Oh, my injuries and Cui'er's injuries are basically healed, we can't always do nothing and get something for nothing, I asked Master Xuanyuan to give me an errand to do."
When Guiyan heard that Xiao Wu had invited herself to be a child waiter, she suddenly felt uncomfortable in her heart, and persuaded: "Xiao Wu, you and Cui'er come to my palace, you two don't have to do anything, you don't have to suffer this hard work...... I have a lot of things there, so it's more convenient for us to play together, and it also saves me and Zixiao having to go back and forth to find you."
"Xiao Wu, I don't want you to depreciate your identity! Come to my palace, it's pure, you can study with peace of mind. ”
In Zixiao's heart, he always thought that Xiao Wu was a master with a noble status, didn't Cui'er also call her that? How could he bear to see her, and he was forced by life to depreciate his identity.
"No need, this is good, don't worry!When Cui'er's injuries and I are healed, we will go to find our family, it won't be long", Xiao Wu declined Zixiao and Guiyan's kindness, diverted the topic, and continued: "Okay, let's not talk about this, let's take a look, my plan to beautify Xiyi Immortal Mansion."
Guiyan loves to be lively, and when he heard it, he excitedly joined in, "Xiao Wu, why do you suddenly want to beautify the Immortal Mansion?
Xiao Wu didn't dare to tell the truth, Master Xuanyuan just arranged for her to take care of the flowers and trees, which was what she wanted to do. She was worried that telling the truth would not attract the attention of Guiyan and Zixiao, after all, the project of leading water into the Immortal Mansion was very large, and it would take the two of them to come forward and ask the relevant immortals to help it be completed.
Thinking that it was time to repair the Immortal Mansion and find a lofty reason and excuse, Xiao Wu pondered for a long time, and then said: "Oh, that's right, Xuanyuan Zhenjun, as the Holy War God of Heavenly Court, devotes all his heart to stabilizing the four seas, so that the people of Heavenly Court can live in peace and happiness...... But Zhenjun himself lived a miserable and lonely life, and the older he got, the more lonely he became...... Repairing the immortal mansion is to find a soulmate and grow old with it...... You say, should Heaven be grateful for his kindness and do everything it can?"
"Xiao Wu, you're right! You should do your best!", Guiyan felt that what Xiao Wu said made sense, and was determined to help. Zixiao just nodded and smiled, thoughtful.
Xiao Wu felt a little proud in her heart, pointed to the picture, and began to explain her plan.
"I think it, the immortals live in all male immortals, so choose flowers, trees and landscapes, it is not easy to be too fancy, it must be simple and elegant to match the Yuanji Palace, it is best to choose flowers and trees that do not need to be taken care of and can last for a long time."
"Well, that makes sense!"
Seeing that Zi Xiao and Gui Yan both agreed, Xiao Wu continued to explain, "I have observed, under the white stone bridge in the main hall, there was originally water, I plan to re-introduce water into the Immortal Mansion, and make an imposing waterfall here, the waterfall water flows into the waterway, and then plant flowers and raise fish...... It's a pity that the water flows away directly, and I want to lead the water from this side of the main hall to the final martial arts training ground, store water to build a lake, and then build a pavilion for resting after practicing martial arts."
"Wow, that's great! Xiao Wu, you're so good!", Guiyan praised with admiration on his face.
Zi Xiao once went to the courtyard behind the main hall, and also suggested: "Behind the main hall is where Xuanyuan Zhenjun and his apprentices live, there are many courtyards, you can plant characteristic flowers and trees for each courtyard, and rename the courtyard according to the flowers and trees, wouldn't it be better?"
Xiao Wu gave a thumbs up appreciatively, "Okay, that's a good idea!"
Guiyan didn't show weakness either, and interjected: "I think I should plant a big tree in front of the Yuanji Palace...... Hmmm, yes, like the big osmanthus tree in the Guanghan Palace, it's great."
"This idea is wonderful!", Xiao Wu's praise made Guiyan very proud.
It took more than an hour for the three of them to finalize the plan, and Cui'er came back and gave some suggestions of her own.
Xiao Wu held up the completed plan and looked at it with satisfaction, she pursed her big eyes, looked at Zixiao on the left and Guiyan on the right, and said, "The plan is set, and then it's time to do it...... Your Highnesses, it depends on your two supernatural powers."
Guiyan slapped his chest on the mountain, "Give it to me and Zixiao, make sure you are satisfied!"
Xiao Wu saw Guiyan calling Zi Xiao's name again, and reminded: "Hey, Zi Xiao is your brother, how can you always call him by his name? You must not be so casual in front of people...... Otherwise, it will be considered uneducated."
Guiyan touched his head embarrassedly, put one arm around Zixiao's neck, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Oh, who is my brother and who......m? In front of other people, though, I'll pay attention."
Zi Xiao looked at it very gratefully, Xiao Wu with a confused and sad look in her eyes, and her face was covered with worry, and the slightest distress made Zi Xiao sigh secretly.
Zi Xiao understands that Xiao Wu is still depressed about not knowing her life experience, and keeping herself busy is actually escaping from pain. He would cooperate with her, even if she lied.
Xiao Wu saw Zixiao's changing expression, and knew that he had found out that he had lied, but she was sure that Zixiao would not expose her, because deep down she believed in him, and she began to believe him from the moment he talked to her when she was still a little white deer and took away the green bird! Xiao Wu thought that except for Cui'er, Zixiao was the best one for her, and he silently maintained and helped herself everywhere and at all times.
Retracting her thoughts, Xiao Wu lowered her head and said while collecting the picture: "I will go to the mountains tomorrow to find a water source, and then find some suitable flowers and trees to come back."
Zi Xiao wanted to help Xiao Wu, and even more wanted to make her happy, so she hurriedly catered and said, "Then I'll go look around the heavenly court to see if there is anything suitable to move over."
Guiyan stared at the big round eyes, spread his hands and asked, "Then what do I do?"
Xiao Wu pretended to groan, and said with some embarrassment: "Oh, one of the most important things is to find someone to introduce water into the Immortal Mansion, and also find someone to dig a ditch and dig a lake, which is a difficult thing to do."
"I'm coming!"
Guiyan raised his hand and enthusiastically took it down, as long as he went out, which immortal would not obediently come to help? After all, if he didn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha, who would dare to refute the face of his father and heavenly monarch?
Early the next morning, Xiao Wu cleaned the Yuanji Palace, and overheard An Ting and a waiter saying that Master Xuanyuan had taken four apprentices yesterday and accompanied the prince to the Eastern Wilderness to quell the chaos, leaving only five apprentices to stay in the Immortal Mansion.
Xiao Wu thought about it, he must finish the repair before Master Xuanyuan returns, otherwise, it will be troublesome if there is too much interference.
The work was taken care of by Cui'er, and Xiao Wu went out of the Xiyi Immortal Mansion alone to find a water source along the waterway.
Clothed in the brilliant morning glow walking in the mountains, only to see the mountains like the sea, the trees are angry like the waves, the early blooming spring has produced flower buds, the peach, magnolia and other trees spit out the tender buds, the mountain stream and the stream murmuring, the birds chirping, the strange stones are craggy. In this beautiful spring, Xiao Wu happily marked the flowers, trees, grasses, stones, etc. that were in the photo and wanted to be removed, and the harvest was really a lot.
After traveling nearly 100 miles, I found that the source of the waterway was just a clear spring, and obviously this amount of water and distance was no longer suitable for being introduced into the immortal mansion.
Xiao Wu suddenly remembered the place where she and Cui'er fell, where there was a large waterfall and a deep pool, and it should not be too far away when she was injured and could walk to the Immortal Mansion.
Ascending to the head of the cloud and looking down, Xiao Wu really found the Xuanqi Pond that was less than forty miles away, crystal clear and unwavering, and there was a waterfall on the entire cliff wall on the pond that flowed straight down, spraying beads and splashing jade, roaring like thunder. It is very good to be the source of water diversion here, but there is a fly in the ointment, and there is a hill between Xuanyu Lake and Xianfu.
Seeing that it was not early, Xiao Wu returned the same way, and brought the flowers, trees and stones marked and selected back to Xianfu by the way, and after coming back, he planted them in the planned location with Cui'er non-stop.
Early in the morning of the second day, a large group of people came to the Immortal Mansion with a bang, and an immortal envoy who was in charge of command and dispatch followed behind Guiyan very flatteringly.
Guiyan told Xiao Wu that he had retold Xiao Wu's words to Tianjun yesterday, and said that his father also felt that he did not care enough about Xuanyuan Zhenjun, who had contributed to the Heavenly Clan. Since the True Monarch has this need, it should be up to the Heavenly Court to undertake this repair, so the specially appointed construction cadres are responsible for this matter, and a special order is issued so that the Immortal Envoy can mobilize any necessary force to ensure that the repair is completed before the return of the Xuanyuan True Monarch, which can also be regarded as a reward for the True Monarch's immortal merits and a heart of the Heavenly Court.
Guiyan also said that his father was also very pleased, and after saying that after more than 200,000 years, Xuanyuan Zhenjun finally figured it out, and had the idea of looking for a soulmate to grow old together.
After Xiao Wu finished listening, she clenched her fists, closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and her face was almost a ball, she secretly complained to herself, and her heart was ruthless, "Guiyan, Guiyan, can you be more honest......?" It's just a stupid pig! It's really killing people, but it's not worth your life! This time it's in your hands, if you wear a gang, then ...... That sin is too great."
Although Xiao Wu wanted to borrow Guiyan's help and his words were deliberately misleading, he didn't mean that Master Xuanyuan wanted to find a partner to grow old with, this was indeed a big misunderstanding. Xiao Wu's original intention is: After the scenery of Xianfu is rich and elegant, Master Xuanyuan can invite more like-minded confidants to come to Xianfu to play, and it is also fun for old confidants to accompany each other to retire.
What's even worse is that the people sent here all think that the Heavenly Monarch asked them to repair the Xiyi Immortal Mansion for Xuanyuan Zhenjun to accept newcomers...... This matter soon spread throughout the entire Heavenly Court and became the hottest topic of discussion among everyone, and they are still deducing and guessing, which goddess and immortal Xuanyuan is going to marry?
Of course, Xiao Wu also heard that there are many fairies and goddesses who love Master Xuanyuan, and if the master can really have someone he likes, it will be a good thing. However, what Master Xuanyuan hadn't done for more than 200,000 years, how could he do it now?
Xiao Wu was about to go crazy, and secretly scolded Guiyan in his heart for being a pig who had not achieved enough things and had more than enough failures. But can we tell the truth and explain the misunderstanding? The result will inevitably be to cover up, and more importantly, the repair plan will not only be ruined, but will also be punished.
Encountering a pig teammate like Guiyan is really a fateful disaster! Before, he almost beat himself to death with the Qiankun Circle, and this time he came to harm himself again, how could he meet such a fool? Xiao Wu screamed in his heart......
No matter! Take one step at a time, and then talk about it when you're done! Xiao Wu secretly made up her mind in her heart.
It is really a specialization in the art industry, and the immortal envoy in charge of the repair re-planned and adjusted and laid out the plan after listening to Xiao Wu's planning, and the level is really higher than what Xiao Wu can think of, I don't know how many days higher.
During this period, Buyan and An Ting also came to ask, and Xiao Wu asked Guiyan to reply that it was the Heavenly Monarch who wanted Zhenjun to improve the cultivation environment, and specially sent him and the Immortal Envoy to help repair the Immortal Mansion, so that they could each go and do not need to ask more. Seeing that Zixiao and Guiyan were both commanding on the spot, Buyan and An Ting didn't dare to ask more.
After the design was finally confirmed, the immortal envoy mobilized various gods and craftsmen to start construction.
First of all, the water god sent people to thoroughly clean the Xiyi Immortal Mansion; the immortal envoy sent craftsmen to replace and repair all parts of the Xianfu; sent the mountain god to remove the mountain peak that blocked the water diversion, and ordered the craftsmen to dig and build a large lake on the spot to store the water drawn from the Xuanqi Mountain Waterfall through the newly built waterway, and then lead the lake water to the mountain wall of the training ground at the back of the Xianfu to form a waterfall, and then the waterfall water was collected into the newly dug inner lake adjacent to the outer lake, and the water from the inner lake flowed into the waterway in front of the Yuanji Hall along the newly built stone stream by the wall.
There are pavilions along the lake for fishing, viewing and resting.
The immortal envoy also ordered the flower fairy to come to the fairy mansion to cloth flowers. A huge osmanthus tree was planted on the side of the gate of the Yuanji Palace; a large camphor tree and some green bamboos were planted in front of the stone gate; flower and fruit trees with different flowering orders were planted on both sides of the mountain road; the bamboo in front of the Xiaowu Gate was also replaced with a more upright and handsome green bamboo; various trees and flowers of different heights were planted on the inside and outside of the wall, and the wall was also decorated with roses and wisteria with blooming flowers; elegant orchid grass was planted even on the side of the entrance stone; a large cherry tree was planted in the martial arts training ground to shade and avoid the sun; a large garden was built in the deserted place on the other side of the inner lake, and there was an open space in the garden for martial arts training。 At the same time, different tree species such as Bodhi tree, peach blossom, magnolia, and pomegranate were planted in the courtyard of Master Xuanyuan and his disciples.
Of course, all the water surfaces are planted with lotus flowers, and it is Xiao Wu who saw the demure and elegant lotus fairy --- Hanlian this time.
On the white stone bridge, the hand of the jade is lightly rotated, the lotus flowers are present, the lotus leaves under the bridge are spread out one after another, the small lotus that has just come out of the water is exposed to the sharp and thin corners, with buds to be released, a few branches of white lotus are the most unbearable, Tingting blooms, and it is beautiful and clean.
And the same graceful and beautiful is the lotus fairy standing in the wind, her face is like condensation, her eyes are like spring water, the pulse is in the eyes, and the flowers are in full bloom.
Misty like light clouds covering the moon, fluttering like flowing wind back to snow.
Xiao Wu was obsessed with watching Han Lian's side, and couldn't help but praise: "Fairy, you look so beautiful!"
is also stupid, and there are hidden in the corner, who are not stained with nymphos and stupid peeping.
Han Lian looked back and smiled, proudly and arrogantly passed by Xiao Wu, bringing infinite fragrance, graceful posture like a light cloud, it is really a good manner!
The immortal envoy was the most thoughtful, and ordered people to put all kinds of fish and turtles in the water for viewing or fishing, and also introduced some birds of various colors with graceful calls from the bird family.
What's even more astonishing is that the immortal envoy also ordered people to add or replace a large number of things in the Yuanji Hall and the residence of the master and apprentice.
After this toss, Xiyi Immortal Mansion has simply changed its old appearance!
