Chapter 23 Beauty is like a jade flower

The snowflakes fluttered to the ground, the north wind was howling outside the forest, Chen Mo knew that it was already winter, counting the days, and the New Year was only in these two days. Thinking of it, in the past New Year, even if Mount Taihua is cultivating the True Immortal Gate, it is very lively on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the first of the other peaks and the first disciples will go to the Zhou Tian Hall on this day, everyone eats dumplings together, and several elders will also learn the customs of the mortal world, and give the juniors some money to go down, Chen Mo went down the mountain this time, and the gold and silver used were the money accumulated in the past ten years, of course, when he went down the mountain, he also deceived Xu Qing and a few. Thinking of the Haikou boasted when he went down the mountain, and then looking at his current situation, Chen Mo couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Hey, it seems that I can't pay the money yet." ”

Chen Mo thought it was really good, today, it was the New Year. Compared with the tranquility in the peach blossom building, the dragon and tiger mountain outside is unusually busy, those disciples even leave behind their daily homework on weekdays, martial arts, spells are no longer practiced today, and they feel the joy of the New Year, of course, this joy is to clean this dragon and tiger mountain, buy things, some will buy a new clothes, some will give themselves a new long sword, and some will rely on their cheeks to ask those senior brothers and sisters for a higher grade talisman, in short, no one has been idle, anyone can ask for some benefits。 Even Tang Qin, the head of Longhu Mountain, is constantly busy today, either writing and painting in his room, looking through the accounts, and planning the operation of Longhu Mountain in the coming year, or he walks out of the door and urges his disciples to be diligent, in short, he can't be idle for a while, or he even misses lunch.

However, these three elders are relatively loose today, and they don't have much to do at hand, and they all send them to their disciples to do, but they have nothing to do. That Tang Yan is okay, as Tang Qin's aunt, her whole body and mind are on the affairs of this Dragon and Tiger Mountain, and her mind is not at all afraid to relax, helping Tang Qin deal with some trivial things; the white-faced elder Yue Changping is the whole person on the finances of this Dragon and Tiger Mountain, and the money required for the purchase of New Year's goods in the entire Dragon and Tiger Mountain is approved by him, of course, the oil and water in this is not a small number; as for the black-faced elder Zhang Zhao, since Tang Qin became the head of this Dragon and Tiger Mountain, Elder Zhang, who used to be conscientious in everything, has become extremely lazy, and he ignores everything, even if the head of the sect personally entrusts him, and it is also a thousand reasons, all kinds of excuses, just sent his first apprentice Wang Heng to take care of Chen Mo with three meals a day, and asked Chen Mo about his situation from time to time. Even today's Chinese New Year, Zhang Zhao never forgot Chen Mo, and sent someone to call Wang Heng to personally tell him a few words, and then returned to his house, and he didn't know what he was doing.

Wang Heng received Zhang Zhao's order, although he did not say anything, but he was helpless and reluctant. Following the teacher's order, Wang Heng personally found Tang Qin, the head of the sect, bowed his head, and said, "Disciple Wang Heng has seen the master of the sect. ”

"What are you looking for me?" Tang Qin glanced at and said in a low voice.

"On the orders of the teacher, there is something to inform the master. That Wang Heng had a bitter face, just thinking about his master's instructions, and he had to speak.

"What's the matter?" Tang Qin listened to Wang Heng's words, his eyebrows furrowed, and he also had some doubts in his heart, these days, many things that Wang Heng handled for Zhang Zhao, Tang Qin saw it in his eyes, although he couldn't talk about anything resolute, but he was also a little decisive, where was it like today.

"Saying goodbye tonight, my teacher Elder Zhang Zhao has a saying, 'Husband and wife keep the year, and the dragon and tiger inherit each other'" Wang Heng glanced up at Tang Qin, and only spoke for a while, but his words were full of emptiness, and he was also clear about the relationship between Tang Qin and Chen Mo, although he had the status of that husband and wife, but in real terms, he could only be regarded as strangers who knew each other's lives.

Hearing this, Tang Qin was silent for a while, and did not immediately reply, but Tang Yan, who was helping on the side, spoke first: "The master knows, you go down first." ”

This was ambiguous, even after Wang Heng heard it, he hesitated for a while, thinking that his master had given a death order before, and if something really went wrong, he was afraid that he would have a restless life on Chinese New Year's Eve. Thinking like this in his heart, a hint of decisiveness flashed in his eyes, and he did not retreat immediately, but then asked: "These days, the disciple has always arranged for Senior Brother Chen to live, if the head of the sect is going to the peach blossom building tonight to keep the New Year, please make it clear, and the disciple can arrange this futon dinner." ”

Hearing the word "futon", even though he was already in charge, Tang Qin still felt a fever behind his ears, but he didn't speak, but looked up at Tang Yan, as if he was begging for help.

"Tonight's sect is naturally going to pass, as for those miscellaneous things, you can look at the arrangements yourself!" Tang Yan saw Tang Qin looking at him, and his heart was clear, so he took the lead and said to Wang Heng.

"Since this is the case, the disciple will retire first!" Saying that, Wang Heng made a move, and he also breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, for fear that the aunt and nephew would not agree, and he would not be able to explain to the master. There was nothing else to do, and after saying goodbye, he also turned around and retreated.

When Wang Heng walked away, Tang Qin opened his mouth and asked, "Auntie, do I really want to go to the peach blossom building tonight?" The distant mountain was locked, obviously unwilling.

"Since I said it, I naturally want to go, if I don't go, according to that Zhang Zhao's temperament, I'm afraid that Longhu Mountain will have a restless life tonight. Tang Yan said.

"Just ......"

"I know what you're trying to say, just like the night you got married. Before Tang Qin finished speaking, Tang Yan interrupted and said in a low voice.

"Hmm"

......

The day passed suddenly, and in a blink of an eye, it was already night, and the sky did not know what was going on, and there were snowflakes fluttering on Chinese New Year's Eve. This snow is not big, but there are some snowflakes sporadically fluttering in the air, if it is small, the snowflakes are not much better than goose feathers. There are not many clouds in the sky, and because of this, the crescent moon hanging in the sky and the stars next to it are also clearly visible.

The whole peach blossom building has become a different existence of Longhu Mountain, when the outside is happy, the excitement is very just, here is okay on weekdays, it is generally quiet and pleasant, only a person and a fox chat with each other to relieve boredom. The pink peach blossoms outside the house correspond to the white snowflakes in the air, which is even more delicate and lovely. Tang Qin is enjoying this beautiful scenery, walking on the rugged path between the peach forests, looking at the surrounding scene, the originally not very good and somewhat depressed mood has suddenly become brighter, occasionally on the peach branch to break off a peach blossom to play, and finally put this peach blossom on his hair. It's just that no matter how far the road is, it will come to an end, and no matter how good the mood is, there will be a day when the Dragon Tiger Mountain Sect Master walked in front of the peach blossom building that originally belonged to his father, Tang Qin's mood suddenly became gloomy. Just like Chen Mo on the night of marriage, Tang Qin was also standing in front of the door at this time and hesitated, frowning, but did not push open the door and walked in.

Chen Mo in the courtyard did not sleep at this time, and when Wang Heng came before, he sent another bedding, and also said that tonight was Chinese New Year's Eve. Since it's Chinese New Year's Eve, it's going to be a vigil, but I don't know if the old man of Taiqingfeng will be lonely tonight if he keeps vigil alone, if he is lonely...... That's also deserved, who let him drive himself down the mountain without anything, and also sealed his own cultivation. After thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly felt some noise in front of the courtyard door, and said goodbye to Wang Heng and gave him something, so he stood up, walked to the peach blossom door, and opened the courtyard door.

As soon as the door of this courtyard opened, I saw that "the beauty is like a jade flower, and the peach blossoms on the human face are red." ”

......

Husbands and wives keep the year, and beauties are like jade flowers
