Chapter 017: Dragon and Phoenix Valley
Zhong Sheng and Nuo'er came to the halfway point of the Longfeng Valley: "Longju can only send us here, and I am afraid of scaring the clansmen if we go forward, although these people are loyal and good, but there are some things that I still don't know......"
Zhong Sheng sighed: "It is indeed not easy to live a stable and happy life!"
Standing halfway up the mountain and looking at the Dragon and Phoenix Valley, the colorful valley has an unobstructed appearance.
I saw dozens of acres of terraced fields, at this time it was the autumn equinox, persimmon, hawthorn, pear, orange ...... Fruitful to be harvested.
The fiery red maple leaves fall with the wind, and the clear stream flows from top to bottom in a pool, and the mandarin ducks and geese play in the pool.
The houses are made of bamboo and wood, built on high ground next to the waterhole, and the houses are more than three feet above the ground.
The low fence of the gravel courtyard, which is either circular or square, varies from house to house, and there are three or two children playing in front of the house.
On the bamboo corridor, two white-haired old men played chess games, and a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy sat next to him, pulling the beard of the old man from time to time and pointing at the chessboard, urging him to move quickly, and sometimes he was well-behaved to pour tea for the game of Lao Suo......
In the courtyard of the largest house in the middle, the smoke curled up, and after several people were busy, the eagle lay on the table in a daze with a displeased face, looking at the roasted wild boar with dull eyes, and kept swallowing saliva.
As the two got closer and closer, there was a cheerful sound of orchestration, and Nuo'er sighed and pointed to the largest courtyard and said, "This is the dwelling built by the clan for their parents and predecessors, but they don't want to live here, alas......"
"You two hurry up, from noon to now, Qingqing and I are not enough, this roasted wild boar is cold, hum!" Ying'er saw the two people who came in, pouted and complained a few words, and continued to lie on the table and watch the wild boar greedy.
When I entered the house, occasionally people who were busy with the wedding banquet walked by, casually greeting "Hello No'er......! Words and deeds are enthusiastic, but they are not distinguished from dignity and humility, and they are in awe.
A delicate girl of the same age as Ying'er, holding a bamboo flute in one hand and pulling Gao Yan's sleeve in the other, ran into the lobby from the backyard: "Sister Nuo'er, Sister Nuo'er, Brother Yan taught me another song today, I'll play it for you, see if I learn well......
"My sister heard the sound of Danqin halfway up the mountain!" Nuo'er walked over and held Danqin's shoulder with one hand, "How can a girl's family be as naughty as an eagle!"
Danqin put his hand to his mouth to make a "shhhh ”
"Why don't you see the Taoist Chief? The Taoist and the main parents should have arrived before us when they came down the mountain. Zhong Sheng looked at everyone puzzled.
Ma Junshi stroked his beard and nodded: "Sure enough, ...... careful"
Noor's mother smiled and said, "The Taoist chief went to do something important, and he should be back soon." ”
Danqin innocently asked, "What could be more important than Sister No'er getting married?"
The old man of the eagle laughed like thunder: "I will know in a moment, hahaha......"
Jiang Jingfeng also opened his eyes at this time, glanced at Zhong Sheng and closed it, but Nuo'er looked at Zhong Sheng when he looked at everyone, guessed a few points, and whispered to Zhong Sheng: "Marriage is a big event, how can Gao Tang not be there?"
Zhong Sheng was extremely excited, and his eyes were moist: "Isn't it the Taoist who went to pick up his mother?"
Then he knelt down respectfully and said: "Your Excellency is a great virtue, the younger generation is unforgettable, the younger generation is always thinking about her mother, worrying that she is not in good health and no one around to take care of her, but this mountain is far away, and there is no way to pick her ......up."
"Get up, you will have to kneel in the hall later, hahaha......" Master Ying'er laughed after speaking, and everyone laughed with it......
Still displeased, the eagle lay down in front of the table and watched the roast pig drool, dazed and about to fall asleep.
