Chapter 8 Yanbo Xianyuan 7
The group walked through a bluestone paved path and entered the courtyard of Ruoxu Valley, where another wonderful scene came into view. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info only see the white wall outside the courtyard to protect it, the green grass and flowers on the wall are neat like a heavenly cut, the courtyard is tortuous, there are rockeries and rockeries embellished, two vertical vine gatehouses in the middle, three sides copy the verandah, left and right small two or three houses, one bright and one dark, each interesting. The roof is vermilion, the cornice is intrigued, the anti-Yu cornice, the carved and embroidered sill, can be described as a poor worker. On both sides of the main entrance, an antique sandalwood board is carved with a couplet, the pen is clear and handsome, and the upper couplet: "A bay of water is like a moon palace, and the fairyland cleanses the dust heart, and suddenly rises the smoke and spring stone thoughts." "Downlink:" The five-colored sand is piled up into the mountains, and the sound of the silk and bamboo orchestra is heard on a sunny day. "It corresponds to the name of Ruoxu Valley, which is not only good in the hidden world, but also wonderful in silk and bamboo.
Walk a few steps to the inside again, in the shade of reed leaves, faintly see a clear pond, the clear pond is surrounded by green bamboo and fragrant ling, the strange grass fairy vine leads the branches, several stone steps in the north, a large stone platform near the water, smooth and wide, the clear water is cold, and the lotus blows warm. At this time, the sky is clear, the pool is full of blue smoke, and it is extremely smart.
Gu Yuecong looked excited, and said: "This garden is called Yanbo Garden, and it is because of this that Bichi is named. ”
Lin Zhonghuai also said: "Exactly, I don't want to be here after many years, it hasn't changed at all." ”
The four of them walked into the courtyard, were about to enter the house, suddenly heard the sound of footsteps outside the courtyard gate, after a while, a person has rushed into the courtyard, followed by more than 20 people, when the first old man entered the courtyard door, he knelt on the ground, and said: "The slave does not know that the great protector of the Dharma is coming, and it is too late to welcome it, please forgive the great protector." The voice was terrified. More than 20 people in the courtyard knelt down together in the morning to say goodbye.
Li Lingfeng said loudly: "The Great Dharma Protector has a tiring journey, so quickly prepare wine and food for the Great Dharma Protector to catch the wind and wash the dust." ”
The old man said, "Yes." He instructed the two behind him: "Go and kill the chickens and sheep, and bring the good wine out of the kiln to several large altars." He glanced at Lin Zhonghuai and said, "I don't know how many people stay in the garden, so the slave will order someone to make the bed and set up a tent." ”
Lin Zhonghuai made a gesture and said, "This is the Great Protector of the Divine Sect, the master of this house." The minions were greatly surprised when they saw that Gu Yuecong was only more than ten years old, and the old man's expression was even more frightened, and he said in a trembling voice: "The slave has no eyes, the slave should die, please spare your life." ”
Gu Yuecong stepped forward, held his arm and said, "The old man doesn't have to be like this. ”
The old man subconsciously shrank back, and said in a trembling voice: "Absolutely not, what is the identity of a minion...... Please spare your life, the Great Protector. ”
Gu Yuecong pulled him up with a slight force on his arm, and said, "Old man, you get up and speak." ”
The man said again and again, "This ...... This ......"
Gu Yuecong asked: "Dare to ask the old man's surname?"
Thinking that he was used to kneeling and talking on weekdays, after the man stood up, he was a little at a loss, and said: "The slave surnamed Wang is the head of Yanbo Garden, and behind him are all the minions in Yanbo Garden, this is a horseman, these four people are servants, he is a gardener, he is a cook, and these are maidservants." ”
Gu Yuecong heard Lin Zhonghuai say that the owner of Yanbo Garden has not been in the garden for more than ten years, and said strangely: "You all live here?"
Mr. Wang: "Yes, twenty-three years ago, the slave followed the young lady here, and after the young lady left thirteen years ago, the slave was reluctant to take care of the young lady, and he still took care of the courtyard here all these years, and he never neglected it at all. Just because there is no one in the garden, in the past thirteen years, except for the sect leader sent people to walk, few people have come, and the servants clean up the place on weekdays, and then cultivate vegetables in the valley to be self-sufficient. ”
Gu Yuecong trembled when he heard what he said, and thought: "He said that he was reluctant to miss, but he was afraid that the sect leader would not let them leave." Seeing that everyone was still kneeling, he said, "All uncles and uncles should get up, no matter what etiquette you have in the past, from now on, you don't have to be rigid when you see me." ”
Mr. Wang: "I can't help it, the great protector is the master, and we are not as good as pigs and dogs, so we must not mess with the rules......"
Gu Yuecong said: "Since I am the owner of the house, do I have to listen to me?"
Mr. Wang: "Yes, yes, but, but ......"
Gu Yue Cong said: "The sect leader will let me live here, so I won't embarrass you because of these rules. ”
When all the minions heard this, they no longer insisted, and they all slowly stood up, and a little girl about twelve or thirteen years old behind them said: "It is said that the great protector is the devil who kills people without blinking, but I didn't expect that they are good people like Miss." ”
Mr. Wang immediately shouted: "The Great Protector also gets your comment, palm!"
The little girl didn't know what she had said wrong, hesitated for a moment, and stretched out her hand to slap her mouth. Gu Yuecong stretched out his hand to stop her and said, "When the owner of this garden left thirteen years ago, you were just born, and this place is isolated from the Divine Cult. He glanced at her and said, "You and I are the same age, don't kneel when you see me in the future." The little girl was very bold when she thought about it, and when she saw Gu Yuecong, there was no fear in her eyes, and she nodded with a smile.
Li Lingfeng said: "The big devil that the little girl said has been imprisoned in the prison, this is the new Great Protector, this is the new Third Protector, they are all celebrities around the sect leader, you have to serve well." ”
All the minions agreed in unison, thinking that it was no wonder that this great protector had no frame at all, it turned out that he was not the same person.
Mr. Wang: "The master has a tired journey, so hurry up and go into the house to rest." He bowed down into the living room.
Gu Yuecong took the lead, and the two then entered the house. I saw that the hall was spread out with light light blankets, and there was a vermilion lacquer square table of about four feet in the middle, four jade cups were placed on it, and the phoenix was carved around the screen behind him, and there were six embroidered gold pillars on the left and right, and a vigorous golden dragon was coiled on each cylinder, and the golden dragon was opposite, but it was three or five colorful butterflies, lifelike. The color paintings between the beams are quiet, interspersed with embroidered streamers, embroidered with flowers, birds, mandarin ducks and other things, where the wind rises, fluttering like flying.
Gu Yuecong saw it pleasing to the eye, and sighed: "From the courtyard wall of the house to the small cup carving, there is such care everywhere, living here is much more comfortable than the Divine Religion." ”
The three of them sat down and gossiped, and not long after, two maidservants with wooden plates walked in, and opened the dishes and chopsticks containers one by one, and then two maidservants came in and hugged the big jar of wine on the table, and the wine was put away.
The aroma of meat came to his nose, Gu Yuecong gulped his saliva, and when he looked at the dishes on the plate, he didn't recognize any of them. Li Lingfeng was also half a catty and eight taels, and he praised it: "It's so meaty!" Only the forest in the Huai, every time the slave maid served a dish, he was not in a hurry and said: "This is the hot nest turtle dove", "This is the braised hare", "Steamed deer tendon", the more later, the eyes gradually widened, and said: "This is the stir-fried bamboo sunflower? Is this the mushroom white fungus soup?" After a while, the maid brought a plate of white-cut lamb legs and a plate of braised wild boar.
