When the Wind Rises Chapter 38 Xanadu
The sword qi was extinguished, and under the soft and white light of the night pearl, the plain-robed boy leaned on the towering ancient tree with his back, and the slender figure stood alone, and there was a low cry of insects in the forest, and the man gently rubbed the elephant fracture fan in his hand, and his eyes were deep and indescribable.
The lush crown of the giant tree trembled for a while, and the plain-robed boy Gu Jing did not wave, and his eyes never left the fan half an inch.
A slender purple cloth fell lightly from the canopy, like a white butterfly skimming the mirror without a trace of ripples, graceful to the extreme.
"Return to the Palaceγγγγγγ The woman in purple was about to speak, but was interrupted by a fan man waving his hand.
"Qiuli, Qiuli, you elm head, how many times have I told you, call me son. The fan-wielding man feigned anger.
The long autumn eyes were full of spirit, and he bowed his head and replied, "Yes, Childe." β
"There is no next time, if it is heard by someone with ulterior motives, I am afraid that it will cause a fishy smell again, but that's fine, fortunately, there will be no idlers in Yunmengze, where the bird does not. The boy in the plain robe said as he played with the folding fan in his hand.
Long Haotian, who claimed to be his son, raised his head slightly again and asked calmly, "How?"
The woman in purple stopped talking again, straightened out the order of her words, and continued: "As guessed, that even ten thousand wins... β
"Wait, let me guess first. The corners of Long Haotian's mouth rose triumphantly and said.
"Lian Wansheng fell into a trap and was caught by Wei Zhongren and a thousand Xuanjia heavy cavalry?" Long Haotian opened his fan and asked tentatively.
Qiu Li narrowed her long autumn eyes slightly, unable to see any change in expression, and shook her head.
The reaction of the purple-clothed maid seemed to have been expected by the plain-robed boy for a long time, he cleared his throat and continued: "Lian Wansheng fell into a trap, and he was defeated by a thousand Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry and Wei Zhongren, and ran away with a lot of blood?"
The heavy color on the purple-clothed maid's face was finally obvious, and she shook her head again, and the plain-robed boy stood upside down with his eyebrows and no longer guessed.
"The flesh and blood of the entire official road were blurred, the stumps flew sideways, and more than ten Da Nei Feiyu guards and a thousand Xuanjia heavy cavalry were all wiped out, and none of them were spared, but fortunately, the head of Wei was able to escape by luck after judging the situation. Qiu Li said word by word, although there was a suspicion of wanting to cover it up in his tone, but it still revealed Sensen's chill.
The plain-robed boy gasped deeply, his scalp was numb, it was a thousand Xuanjia iron horses, and he remembered that in the past, he was drunk with gold and jade, and he didn't know how powerful the white-clothed Confucian saint was. It is rumored that the white-clothed Confucian saint entered Chang'an three times and made a lot of noise, the first time was blocked outside the city by tens of thousands of heavy soldiers, the second time he entered the outer city of the palace, but he was blocked by the forbidden army and dozens of flying fish guards, and the third time the Confucian saint entered the Jinluan Palace, just a few eyes away from the nine dragon chairs, that time he always felt very strange, usually under the arch guard of the head of Dongchang Wei, the flying fish guard of the Great Inner and thousands of Praetorian Guards, the palace could not even fly in all the time, but for a mere Confucian student so hard to mobilize the people.
But at the moment, the prince of the robe involuntarily wiped a cold sweat, the dragon vein of the beam starts from Kunlun in the west, and flows into the south of the Yangtze River from west to east, Liang Taizong in order to protect the foundation of the Liang for thousands of generations, the dragon vein lock is buried in the Muru Mountain at the end of the dragon vein, in order to seek the peace of the four seas, and all countries come to the dynasty, now after a hundred years, the general trend of the world has a storm and storm again, the son of the robe went down to the south of the Yangtze River alone, just to go to the Muru Temple to retrieve the dragon vein lock of the girder, there is no room for loss, fortunately, the prime minister Fang Xuanlin strategized, and he had long expected that even Wansheng would kill halfway, and simply planned to have a tanuki for the prince, and the plank road was darkly Chen Cangγ
"In this mixed rivers and lakes, there are countless hungry dogs,, flies, ponytails, and ponytails, this son is such an amazing peony, there are always so many wild bees and butterflies, and the elegant Lian Wansheng in white is one of them, don't you say it in autumn?" Long Haotian stabilized his mind and talked and laughed.
The woman in purple nodded, her eyes faintly uneasy.
Although the rivers and lakes are dangerous, there are always some scenery that cannot be missed. Long Haotian stopped at the point, and continued: "Besides, with you by his side, this son is very relieved, what does he care about even ten thousand wins?
"Childe, the slave maid saw it clearly that day, and the disciple of Jixia named Bai Yun summoned the phantom of the evil Jiao to scare away the Yin Netherworld Snake, do you want the slave and maid to take the ice soul away?" Qiu Li looked at the bloody hungry wolf corpses around him, and there was an indescribable deep cold hidden in his eyes.
"Eh, you can't do this kind of stealing chickens and dogs, have you forgotten that the power of the evil Jiao is against my Liang Dragon Vein? Besides, our trip down to the south of the Yangtze River is very dangerous, not to mention my uncle, there are countless jackals, tigers and leopards on the rivers and lakes, and rashly making a move will only cause extraneous branches, Baiyun and I are close in age but talented, and at a young age we have the understanding of Buddhism and Taoism, and the future must be unlimited. Long Haotian replied with starry eyes.
"The slave knows. The woman in purple replied thoughtfully.
The sun rises in the east, the sun shines into the dense forest through the cracks in the canopy, dispersing some of the wet and heavy water vapor at night, and the foggy weather of the day arrives as scheduled, sometimes rich and sometimes thin, and the road is clear for a while, and the fog is full of sky for a while.
Bai Yun and the others have been wandering around the dense forest, and they have never been able to find the official way to leave Yun Mengze, during which several hungry beasts have taken advantage of the fog to sneak attack, and they have all been slashed by Zhang Yuruo and the purple-clothed maid who have just recovered from their injuries.
The little monster turns a blind eye to the fog and is not afraid of these fierce beasts, wandering freely in the forest, coming and going without a trace, from time to time to bring back some wild fruits to distribute to everyone, this little brown bear with a vermilion mark on the eyebrows every time it appears, it will first give the wild fruits picked to the white clothes, and then raise its head to look at the white clothes in a daze, and look at the white clothes in a daze.
Zhang Yuruo couldn't move the little monster's toss, and took a red wild fruit and put it in his mouth, which was sweet and delicious, and his teeth and cheeks were fragrant.
This red wild fruit is called monkey fruit, it is the most favorite forest delicacy of the little monster, but the number of monkey fruit trees is scarce, it can not be found, even if it is the delicacies everywhere in the Jixia Mountain, you have to walk for most of the day to see a monkey fruit tree, and the fruit on a monkey fruit tree can be counted on ten fingers, if on weekdays, Baiyun wants to get a piece of the pie from the monster's pocket, it is to pedal the ladder to the sky, no way!
Zhang Yuruo, who didn't have a good impression of the little monster at first, couldn't help but look at the little monster a few more times.
"Bai Yun, you spirit beast shuttles freely in the forest, and it seems that you are not afraid of the fog in the sky, why don't you try to let it lead the way?"
Bai Yun suddenly realized: "What Long Gongzi said is very true!"
"Little monster, take us out of Yunmengze. Bai Yun touched the little monster's head and said anxiously.
The little monster chewed on the monkey fruit and nodded as if he didn't understand.
Sure enough, under the guidance of the little monster, everyone no longer wandered around the bend, in the fog, the ground under their feet began to become firm and dry, and the dense giant trees around gradually thinned out, everyone was ecstatic and thought that the official road was ahead, but the next moment, they almost fell to the ground on the spot, chasing the monster's butt kick.
The cloudy and uncertain fog suddenly dispersed, and what appeared in front of the four of them was not an official road, but a forest of monkey fruits born in the dense forest, ripe and full monkey fruits crumbling on the trees, and the little monster's eyes were shining, and their saliva was dripping.
Everyone laughed and laughed, this little bear with a different appearance was really an out-and-out foodie, leading everyone to trek through the dense woods for these monkey fruits.
After walking for a long time, the boy in the plain robe felt that his tongue was dry, and he didn't want to blame the little monster, so he stretched out his hand and picked a fiery red and attractive monkey fruit and threw it into his mouth, which was sweet and delicious and went straight to his heart and lungs, like a desert sweet spring.
The purple-clothed maid who was secretly sending autumn waves all the time with long autumn eyes turned her head to look at the other end of the monkey fruit forest, slightly constricted her brows, as if she had noticed something, and walked into the depths along the monkey fruit forest, and the other three people were curious and followed, and the little monster who was intoxicated in the monkey fruit forest stuffed a few monkey fruits with dates, and then reluctantly followed everyone.
Walking out of the monkey fruit forest, there is a paradise in front of me.
Rushing to the wind and raising the waves, taking the waterwheel to cover the lotus.
Shaded by the giant trees, there is a sparkling pond with a simple wooden house on the edge of the pond, a vegetable garden surrounded by a wooden tree, and a beautiful and colorful wildflower bloom on the edge of the wooden house.
When the little monster saw the koi swimming in the pond, he ran to the edge of the pond happily.
The four of them came to the wooden house and gently tapped the door panel, and after a while, the wooden door opened, and out came a middle-aged man with a slightly chubby figure and most of his forehead exposed, and the man had a strange bun of balls on his head.
The plain-robed boy's pupils shrank.
The middle-aged man who tied up his balls in a bun glanced out of the door, his eyes lingered in the white cloud sleeves for a moment, and before everyone could speak, he snapped the door shut: "The humble house is shabby, and we will not entertain guests." β
I thought I was grabbing a life-saving straw, but I didn't say that I had eaten a closed door, and the boy in the plain robe narrowed his gaze slightly, and said loudly: "Senior, I waited in Yunmengze to encounter the fog and got lost, and the sky gradually became dim, I don't know if the seniors can easily spend the night, if you are worried about eating and drinking, the silver is not a problem, and when the sun comes out tomorrow, we will no longer disturb the seniors." β
"I don't know the way, please go back. The man's tone in the cabin grew impatient.
It was getting darker and darker, and the four of them had no choice but to light a bonfire not far from the hut.
"Childe, it's cold at night, why don't you take some more silver and ask the senior, see if you can spend the night?" asked Qiuli.
Long Haotian, who was active, shook his head and said: "No need, how can it be an ordinary person who can be leisurely in Yunmengze and open up a paradise world, naturally he will not like to be disturbed by the world, looking at silver is like looking at the cow dung in the field, it is not worth a penny, allowing us to make a fire here to keep warm is already a great forbearance, don't bother that senior again, wait for the sun to come out tomorrow and find another way." β
Bai Yi said little along the way, and this time he sat by the fire without saying a word and wiped the water cold.
"Miss Yuruo, the scabbard of your sword is wrapped like a cloud of silver wire, the sword is awe-inspiring, although I don't understand the sword, but I can also see that this is the best in the sword, the so-called sword with beauty, this sword and Yuruo girl is really a perfect match. Long Haotian was amazed.
Zhang Yuruo, who was not good at speaking, just hummed lightly.
Long Haotian, who wanted to use this to open the conversation, suddenly felt that he ran into a cold copper wall.
The shadowless dragon came and went, and saw the little monster that could not see the tail, and did not know where to drag a live pheasant and a dying and struggling hare.
Long Haotian swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva, and even Zhang Yuruo, who was sitting by the bonfire concentrating on polishing his sword, raised his head slightly.
The little monster showed a pitiful look, and the corners of Baiyun's mouth were raised and smiled.
After a meal, the intoxicating smell of meat drifted like smoke to the candle-lit wooden house.
