The boat turned a row of weeping willows, and in the distance I saw a cluster of flowers and trees by the water's edge reflecting the water and red, as bright as clouds. Cui Shiyuan let out a low cry of "ah".

The maidservant said: "What's wrong?" Cui Shiyuan pointed to the flower tree and said: "This is our camellia in Dali, why is there this kind of Yunnan tea in Taihu Lake?" The maidservant said, "Yes, this village is called Yunxia Villa, and it is full of camellias. Cui Shiyuan said: "Camellia is also known as jade tea, and another name is mandala flower. This village is named after Mantuo, but to see what the name is. ”

The maidservant girl pulled the wooden oars, and the boat sailed straight to the camellia tree, and when she reached the shore, she saw that it was all red and white camellias, and there were no houses in sight. Cui Shiyuan grew up in Dali, camellia is commonplace, not at all surprised, thought: "Although there are many camellia here, there seems to be no good product, think that the real famous species must be planted in the village." ”

The maidservant leaned the boat to the shore and said with a smile: "Cui Gongzi, let's go in for a while, and we'll come out immediately." Holding Xia Er's hand, he was about to jump ashore, when he suddenly heard the footsteps in the flower forest, and a little man in Tsing Yi came out.

The little mustache held a bouquet of flowers and plants in his hand, saw the maidservant and Xia Er, and quickly approached, his face was full of joy, and said, "Ji'er, Xia Er, you are so bold, you have stolen here again." The lady said, 'The two little girls had a cross on their faces with a knife, which broke their flower-like countenance. ”

The maid smiled and said, "Sister Youcao, isn't Mrs. Uncle at home?" The little mustache Youcao glanced at Duan Yu twice, turned her head to Ah Zhu and Ah Bi and smiled: "Madam also said: 'The two little hooves also brought a strange man to Yunxia Villa, and they will quickly cut off both of that person's legs!'" She didn't finish her words, she already pursed her lips and laughed.

The maidservant patted her heart and said, "Sister Youcao, don't be scary!

Xia Er smiled and said, "Sister, don't be scared, if your uncle is at home, does this girl dare to smile like this?"

Youcao smiled: "Phew, how old are you? You are also worthy of being my sister? You little elf, you actually guessed that Madame was not at home." He sighed lightly and said, "Ji Er and Xia Er, it's so easy for you to come here, I really want to keep you for a day or two." But......" he said, shaking his head. Xia Er said: "Why don't I want to be with you for a while? Sister Youcao, when will you come to our village, and I will accompany you for three days and three nights, okay?" said the two girls and jumped ashore. The maidservant whispered a few words in Yucao's ear. Youcao sneered and glanced at Duan Yu. The maidservant's face was flushed.

Youcao pulled Xia Er with one hand and Ji Er with the other, and said with a smile: "Go into the house." Xia Er turned her head and said, "Cui Gongzi, please wait here for a while, we will come when we go." ”

Cui Shiyuan said: "Okay!" Seeing the three maids holding hands, they walked into the flower forest affectionately.

He went ashore, and when he saw that there was no one around, he relieved himself behind a large tree. After sitting by the boat for a while, I became bored, and thought, "Let's go and see what different species of Yunxia flowers are here?" Walking and watching, I saw that there were no other flowers in the flower forest except camellia, and even the most common morning glory, moon red, rose and the like were also not a single flower. But the camellia planted is mediocre, and the only benefit is to get a "more" word. After walking out of dozens of zhang, I saw that there were more and more varieties of camellia, and occasionally one or two were not bad, but they could not be planted, and I thought: "This Zhuangzi takes Yunxia as the name in vain, but the good varieties of camellia are ruined." ”

I thought again: "I have to go back, Ji'er and Xia'er won't see me when they come back, I'm just afraid that I'm in a hurry." He walked through the flowers, only the camellia was observed, forgetting to remember the path, seeing the east and west of the path, I don't know which one is the way to come, but it is a little difficult to return to the mooring place of the boat, and thinks: "Go to the water's edge first." ”

But the more I walked, the more I felt that it was wrong, the camellia in my eyes was something I hadn't seen before, and I was secretly worried, and suddenly I heard someone talking in the forest on the left, it was Xia Er's voice. Cui Shiyuan was overjoyed and thought, "I'll wait for them here for a while, and when they finish speaking, we can go back together." ”

I only heard Ji Er say: "The son is in good health, and the amount of food is also good." In the past two months, he has been practicing the 'dog beating stick method' of the beggar gang, presumably to compete with the characters in the beggar gang. Cui Shiyuan thought to himself: "Xia Er is talking about Zhang Shenggongzi, I shouldn't eavesdrop on others behind my back, I should go farther." But I can't go too far, or I won't know when they're done. ”

At this moment, only a woman's voice could be heard sighing softly.

Suddenly, Cui Shiyuan's whole body couldn't help but be shocked, his heart was pounding, and he thought: "This sigh is so good, how can there be such a voice in the world?" She is so concerned about Zhang Shenggongzi and so concerned about it. Zhang Shenggongzi, how fortunate are you to get this immortal blessing?"

I only heard Xia Er say: "When Gongzi went out, he said that he was going to Luoyang to meet the good hands of the beggar gang, and Brother Deng went with Gongzi." Rest assured, girl. ”

The woman said leisurely: "The two great magic skills of the beggar gang's 'dog beating stick method' and 'dragon descending eighteen palms' are the secret of the beggar gang. Your 'Returning Shi Shui Pavilion' and the Tibetan spectrum of my family's 'Langyu Cave' are put together, and there are only some incomplete stick techniques and palm techniques. But there is no mental method of exercising at all. How can your son-in-law practice?"

Xia Er said: "Childe said, since this 'dog beating stick method' mental method was created by man, why can't he think of it? ”

Cui Shiyuan thought to himself: "Zhang Shenggongzi's words are also reasonable, I think that others are both smart and very ambitious. ”。

But I heard the woman sigh softly again, and said: "Even if it can be created, I'm afraid it won't be a matter of ten or eight years, but in an instant, how can it be done? Have you seen Childe practice the stick method? Is there anything embarrassing and suffocating?" Xia Er said: "Childe's stick method is very fast, and it will be like ......flowing water from beginning to end."

The woman let out a soft "ah" and said, "Oh no......! Did he really make it very fast?" Ji Er said: "Yes, is there anything wrong?" The woman said: "Naturally it's not right." Although I don't know the mental method of the dog stick method, it seems from the stick method that there are a few ways that must be as slow as possible, and a few ways must be fast and slow, fast and slow, slow and fast.
