Volume Eighty-Nine: Into the Valley
Qingyue Town's effect on Liuyun Valley is similar to that of Longcheng to Qingyangmen, and Luocheng is to Leiyin Temple, which is equivalent to a gateway to it, but because Liuyun Valley has always been relatively low-key and does not receive foreign visitors very much, although Liuyun Valley is respected as one of the three major Daoist schools in Zhongzhou, it is not as bustling as other Daoist schools all year round, but it is a little deserted.
Although the name of Qingyue Town is only a town, it is still much larger than other towns, it is not only a station before outsiders visit Liuyun Valley, but also a commercial town outside Liuyun Valley, the disciples of Liuyun Valley are all female streams, and women have always loved beauty, so the town is full of shops that buy and sell women's things, and the bosses who do business are mostly women, it seems that the business is quite good, Ming Xuan and Xingyun seem a little different after walking into the town, and from time to time there are people who cast curious eyes.
"A word of advice to you, go find some good shops, buy more women's products, like rouge gouache, gold and silver accessories, etc., the more elaborate the better. Xingyun said happily.
"Why did you buy these?" Ming Xuan was full of doubts.
"If you are troubled by a group of female disciples after entering the valley, and when you are at a loss, you suddenly give them some women's items, do you think they will be embarrassed to make things difficult for you again?" Xingyun said with a lot of experience, it seems that this kind of thing has not been done before.
"Uncle Shi has a point!" Although Ming Xuan didn't understand these people's sophistication, he was also a little bit clear.
After a while, Ming Xuan bought a lot of things from the store, and he didn't understand these things, so he had to ask the boss to help pick out some of the best, and then he began to buy a lot. The so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, not to mention the gifts, now those brutal female disciples are no longer embarrassed to embarrass him, thinking of this, Ming Xuan's heart is much more steady.
"Uncle Shi, I bought so much! The boss said it was the best! It should be no problem now!" Ming Xuan said happily, this is the most worrying thing he has in recent days, if someone challenges him, he will not frown, but if he meets these women who can't say anything and can't beat, he really has no way.
"It's good, it's good, but there's still a problem here, although you bought so many things, but how can you have more wolves and less meat, you can't be able to send it to everyone, if you give it unevenly, this disciple gives it, but that disciple doesn't give it, it is estimated that those female disciples who are left out will make you even worse!" Xingyun said with a smile.
"Ah, uncle, what should I do then!" Ming Xuan's expression immediately stiffened, this must be a problem!
"I'll send you eight more words, adapt to the situation, and ask for more blessings!" Xingyun said in a rather chattering voice, and then laughed and left, leaving Mingxuan behind him with black lines.
The next day, with this apprehensive heart, Ming Xuan embarked on the road to Liuyun Valley with the head of the Xingyun Dao.
"Uncle Shi, what methods will they have to make things difficult for me later? Will it be too much? Is it okay to ignore them? Is it okay to avoid them? Can I fight back? It's always okay to defend myself?" Along the way, Ming Xuan pestered Uncle Xingyun and kept asking.
"This is the fifty-fourth time you've asked me!
"You just say you don't know, you don't know, what kind of answer is this? Ming Xuan muttered.
"They didn't already know that you were going up the mountain, how do I know what they will do on the spot, and when the time comes, you can just adapt yourself!" Xingyun said helplessly, he really didn't understand how Qingyangmen could have such a disciple.
Liuyun Valley is located between Liufeng Mountain and Yunhe Mountain, these two mountains are also extremely majestic, and they are also quite famous mountains in Zhongzhou, but now they are covered by the famous name of Liuyun Valley, when the ancestors of Liuyun Valley passed through here, they saw that the high mountains on both sides of this place stood sideways, and the valley was remote and secluded, so they immediately liked it, and finally established a sect in the valley between these two mountains, and each took one of the words in the name of the mountain as the name, which is the origin of Liuyun Valley.
Although Liuyun Valley is just a valley, but because both sides are towering and tall mountains, so the area is also extremely broad, there is a stream between the valleys flowing slowly, it is indeed an excellent quiet place, set up a sect here, I have to say that the ancestors of Liuyun Valley are very discerning.
The scenery of the valley mouth of Liuyun Valley is beautiful, surrounded by flowers and plants, insects and birds chirping everywhere, the stream tinkling, the breeze is also mixed with a faint fragrance of flowers, which makes people unconsciously indulge in it, it is very enjoyable, compared with the quiet and quiet of Qingyang Mountain, the unity of movement and stillness in Liuyun Valley is also a unique flavor.
"Picking chrysanthemums to the southeast, leisurely see Nanshan, the scenery here is really good, and the seasons are different, it really makes people can't help but be a little intoxicated!" Xingyun couldn't help but praise.
"Well, this place is indeed very elegant!" Ming Xuan also nodded and praised, walking in this cheerful and peaceful place, Ming Xuan gradually relaxed, originally he was also a calm person, but when he thought of meeting something that made him feel helpless, he would inevitably have some pimples in his heart, just like if a person inadvertently cut his finger and bled out, then he may still feel nothing, but if he deliberately cut it, then he would be a little concerned, and he would not even dare to start.
"The front is already a heavy place in Liuyun Valley, please stop!" Just as the two were drunk and lingering, two women walked out from between the mountains and rocks on the side to block their way, they were wearing a light green power suit, and the power suit was also embroidered with an ethereal flowing cloud, combing the flowing cloud hairpin, and there was a little cinnabar in the center of the eyebrows, it seemed that they were the disciples of Liuyun Valley.
"We are disciples of Qingyangmen, in the lower road number Xingyun, this is my nephew Gu Mingxuan, on behalf of Qingyangmen, I came to congratulate Master Jingyi of Liuyun Valley on his birthday. "It has reached the state of Liuyun Valley, and Xingyun has returned to the state of socializing in the past.
"It turns out that Daoyou is here to visit Mrs. Jingyi, please come with me!" As soon as the two heard that Xingyun was coming on behalf of Qingyangmen, they immediately became very solemn, and after respectfully saluting, they led the way for the two.
Both of them belong to the concierge of Liuyun Valley, and naturally they have to understand the rules, so they are polite to both of them along the way, and they have a solemn temperament, which makes Ming Xuan's original heart gradually return to its original place.
"Two Dao Masters, in front of me is the gate of my Liuyun Valley, just go by the way, and I will send someone to receive you two at that time!" one of them said respectfully.
"So thank you two for leading the way!" Xingyun also replied respectfully, although from the appearance, Xingyun can be their father, but after the cultivator reaches a certain skill, his appearance can change, don't look at these two people young, maybe they can be Xingyun's mother in turn.
The gate of Liuyun Valley was already close in front of him, and after the two disciples in charge of guiding the way finished the salute, they retreated, and before leaving, they seemed to glance at Ming Xuan with a slight intention, and there seemed to be a slight smile in their eyes, which made Ming Xuan's heart tighten.
"Uncle Shi, is it possible to meet Mrs. Jingyi soon?" asked Ming Xuan a little impatiently.
"This is only the gate of Liuyun Valley, there is still a long way to go! Just think about how far the gate of Qingyang Gate is from the Qingyang Seven Peaks. Xingyun said with a slight smile, with a slight banter in his words.
"That'...... Isn't that ......" Ming Xuan knew that trouble was coming.
"Hehe, it's good to be improvised, but don't be rude!" Xingyun smiled a little weirdly, making Mingxuan's scalp tingle a little.
Compared with the gate set up by Qingyang Gate, which is very atmospheric, the gate of Liuyun Valley looks very delicate and elegant, and the woman's careful thoughts are reflected everywhere, and compared to the quiet scenery that came all the way, Liuyun Valley behind the gate is even more full of flowers and beautiful, but Mingxuan has no mood to enjoy the scenery at this time.
"Two distinguished guests, please come with me!" The person in charge of the protocol was all human spirits, and when he saw that these two people were personally escorted by the disciples of Shougu, he knew that the status of these two must not be low, so he immediately greeted him respectfully, compared to the solemn sรน of the previous two, the two people who ushered in him seemed a little out of the box.
"There are two girls!" Xingyun said happily, and his words were a little more cheerful.
"What is the name of the Dao Chief?" a female disciple asked curiously, her small eyes constantly looking at the two of them, and it seemed less formal.
"Xingyun, a disciple of the Lower Qingyang Sect, this is my nephew Gu Mingxuan, who has come to visit Guigu Jingyi's master," Xingyun said with a smile.
"It turned out to be a guest of honor for Master Jingyi's birthday! One smiled lightly and led the Daoist Master of the Cloud Journey towards the valley, but just as Ming Xuan was about to leave with the Daoist of the Traveling Clouds, he was stopped by another female disciple.
"The head of Xingyun Dao is going to the visitor hall to register, so you don't have to go together, drink tea and rest in the pavilion. The female disciple chuckled and took Ming Xuan, whose face was full of black lines, to sit down in the pavilion, at this time there was no one at the mouth of the valley, and Ming Xuan was still a little at ease.
"Sister Yun! You're receiving guests again!Who sent a noble person to our valley today!" Just as Ming Xuan was about to take a breath, a crisp voice sounded.
Following the sound, a group of women in strong suits walked over with a smile, and when they saw Ming Xuan who was drinking tea, they immediately came to their senses, and began to chatter and whisper, and their eyes kept looking, which made Ming Xuan quite uncomfortable.
"It was the disciples of Qingyangmen who came to congratulate Master Jingyi on his birthday. The female disciple replied with a smile.
"Oh, it's the VIP of Qingyangmen! Then we have to come to say hello!" A female disciple led by him walked over with a smile, it seemed that Ming Xuan still couldn't escape the scene he didn't want to see.
