130 Aunt (2)
"Auntie, I'm afraid it's a little ...... for you to enter the mountain like this."
Huang Chang originally thought that only he thought so, after all, Baoyun Mountain was the territory of the Ji clan, and they knew the situation best, maybe it was very safe there.
However, judging from Ji Tiandu's face and words, it seems that this is not the case.
"The Hidden Spring Valley has been closed for more than ten years, and no one has been sent in to investigate it for many years, and no one knows what will happen to it. What if something goes wrong...... Although there is Granny Sang in charge, there is a shortage of manpower after all. Why don't you wait a few days for your aunt and wait for more people from the family to come over, and then go over together?"
- The so-called "spiritual land" is a treasure land that contains spiritual energy and can give birth to spiritual objects. However, everything in the world is strange, and this is not artificial breeding, what will be born, that no one knows. If it's a grass and tree elf, it's fine, but if it's an animal spirit, it's probably still dangerous.
The opening of these spiritual lands is also a strategy to use the power of others to help clear up potential threats—if there is no danger, why should they arrange for monks to enter and directly send their own warriors in to hunt.
So when Ji Tiandu raised objections, Huang Chang had a feeling of "both reasonable and unexpected" - what Ji Tiandu said was right, but had they not discussed it within the family before?
Although Ji Wufang's generation is a generation older than Ji Tiandu, but the latter, as the heir of the family, his status must be above Ji Wufang, and Ji Tiandu's age is actually much older than Ji Wufang, not to mention that the former is still a dignified five-heaven monk, and his words are more important than Ji Wufang, a mortal.
Huang Chang originally thought that since Ji Tiandu had put forward his opinion, he should act according to his ideas, but the actual situation was not the case - after discussing a few words softly, Ji Wuflaw and Ji Tiandu actually went to the Hidden Spring Valley together according to Ji Wuji's plan, and Ji Tian also agreed to help protect the Dharma when the time came.
In this way, Huang Chang is bound to accompany him, and Ji Tiandu also came over to explain it - it is said that Ji Wufang checked the collection of books in the family a few days ago, and found a volume of predecessors' notes with a map, which recorded that somewhere in the Hidden Spring Valley, there was a famous spiritual flower called "Youtan Flower", which was extremely important to her cultivation.
It's just that the epiphany blooms only once every few years, and it only blooms for an hour or two at a time. After calculation, the most recent flowering period is only a few days away, so I am in a hurry to rush over. The shortage of manpower can only be made up for by his side.
And when the time comes, it will inevitably trouble Huang Chang one or two, so Ji Tiandu specially explained, and at the same time, he said hello to him in advance - this seems to be a flawless thing, but as the privilege of the noble daughter of the Ji family, it is inevitable that the shelf will be bigger.
Huang Chang has no objection to this, anyway, he was just hanging out, and it doesn't matter where he goes. So the three teams merged together and headed for the Hidden Spring Valley together.
Walking in the rivers and lakes, it is inevitable to exchange one or two along the way. Huang Chang had always heard that the daughters of the Ji family were all cold beauties, and they were the most arrogant and unapproachable, but after touching them in person, they found that this was not the case. Including that flawless, although it is true that he is as unsmiling as rumored, it is not the nature of looking down on people with eyes on the top of his head. At least, in front of Huang Chang, he still seemed quite polite and polite.
And the two girls she brought are much more lively, love to talk and laugh, and occasionally unconsciously show admiration when talking to Huang Chang...... What blushing before speaking, what big eyes blink and blink...... is completely a fan, and sometimes Huang Chang is a little confused. The heart said that the Ji family arranged for these two to appear, could it be that they also had the idea of wanting to "fish for golden turtles"?
But if you really want to plan like this, why let Ji Wuflaw lead the team?—— under the backdrop of the first beauty of the country, no matter how hard those two young girls try, they are like ugly ducklings next to the white swan, and they can't attract the attention of others at all!
If Ji Ruo was here, he would definitely be able to see the true meaning of Ji Wufang's move at a glance - it was nothing more than the open and secret stepping on the various heads of the house within the Ji family, as well as all kinds of careful thinking between women. In the eyes of Ji Ruo, who was born in the Ji royal family and inherited his mother's talent, it was all a palm view. But Huang Chang is a big man after all, and he has never been in a big family in his past or present life, so it is difficult to understand these subtleties. I didn't have a clue after thinking about it, so I didn't bother to think about it.
——This is a long way to go to Baoyun Mountain, with the footsteps of mortals, even if there are good horses to walk, it will take several days just on the road, and it is inevitable to camp in the wild during this time. Huang Chang has three children, and the main energy must be on them, but he doesn't have the leisure to ponder the woman's careful thoughts.
............
The night was dark and the bonfire was in full swing.
Around the roaring fire, a group of people sat or leaned, casually scattered around the campfire. But everyone's eyes were almost focused on one spot - a small wild boar slowly spinning on the grill.
Huang Chang sat in front of the grill and instructed his little cousin surnamed Chen to adjust the speed to ensure that the fire was more even. While skillfully smearing honey and spices on the boar, and sprinkling some salt particles from time to time, watching the drops of grease fall into the fire, bursting into small sparks and emitting bursts of aroma.
On the other side of the campfire, on an iron shelf, hung an iron pot, in which milky white soup was boiling up and down, and a pheasant loomed in it. The person who is responsible for taking care of this side is Xiao Xue, the brother-in-law of Huang Chang's sister-in-law. Although this child is only a teenager, he is a natural big man like his brother, and he usually has a good appetite, but at this time, he smells the smell of the soup pot, and secretly swallows his saliva, and almost can't help but salivate.
In addition to a fresh and tender pheasant that was just slaughtered in the evening, Huang Chang's soup also has a lot of good things: chicken fir, fungus, mountain chestnuts, and a number of other mountain delicacies, plus his secret seasoning soup, the taste is absolutely indescribable. If it weren't for this, it wouldn't have attracted both Ji Tiandu and Ji Wufang - the three teams had their own meals for the night. However, on the first night, Huang Chang made a pot of thick soup and sent some to the other two teams out of politeness, and then the two teams came over and developed the habit of rubbing rice......
