Junju.

On the third day, at midnight.

The autumn night is as cool as water, in the shadows of the insects and trees, the white moonlight spills into the courtyard, and the white clothes are draped in a light shirt, limping towards the rain pavilion in the courtyard.

He stretched his body, sat down on the stone bench, gazed at the bleak moon, untied the gourd around his waist, and habitually touched the amber cup around his waist.

"Alas!"

He thought of the maid changing his clothes, and the amber cup must be in the chamber, so he had to come to the gourd bottle and drink it.

"Division...... Master. ”

A sweet voice sounded, the white clothes turned sideways, and there was a graceful figure among the chrysanthemums planted in the courtyard.

"The body is just better, so I sneaked out, Meilan Zhuju is real! You don't even know when you wake up. ”

Bai Yi took a sip of clear and sweet elixir and jade liquid, and said with a smile: "They take care of me very hard, I woke up and saw them lying on the side of the bed to rest, I couldn't bear to disturb them, so I went to the courtyard alone to relax." ”

"Wanrong!"

"She's going to make you soup, I think I'm going to the kitchen!"

Lu Wushuang saw Bai Yi stand up and hurriedly stepped forward to support him. "That girl, I can see that Forging Zhu likes her very much, and her relationship with me is mostly an attachment. ”

"Master, slow down, don't bump or touch!" Lu Wushuang reminded as he looked at the steps.

Bai Yi gently patted Lu Wushuang's bun and said with a smile: "You girl, eccentric, what the hell are you thinking!"

"Master, since you came down from Wudang, your deeds have been spread in the rivers and lakes, and the deer stickers and crane pen Weng who have been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for decades have all been defeated in your hands, as well as the Mongolian golden wheel and copper wheel. ”

As she spoke, her eyes pursed, she said, "You can tell your loveliest apprentice about that night, there are various versions circulating in the rivers and lakes, and they all say that the swordsmanship you used in the end was immortal." ”

"That move is a flying immortal outside the sky. ”

Lu Wushuang's face was delicate, his face was flushed, like delicate rose petals, and he whispered, "Ah! ”

They turned several corridors, and a faint aroma hit their nostrils.

"Shhhh ”

Bai Yi gradually lightened her steps, the kitchen lights jumped in a trance, Yue Wanrong's graceful, tender body shook like waves, and fine white sweat beads stuck to her hair.

"Rong'er. ”

She listened to the familiar voice of expectation, and leaned sideways, looking at the slightly pale face, her eyes misty.

Lu Wushuang looked at Yue Wanrong's touching and pitiful appearance, and secretly thought that she was usually domineering, willful, and rude, and when she met Brother Yi, she was like a girl made of water, and she could burst into tears when she touched it, which was really strange.

"Rong'er, it's all my fault for making you worry. ”

Rong'er had tears in her eyes, stared at Bai Yi and said, "Woo, you are not allowed to leave me again, even if you die, Rong'er will accompany you." Lu Wushuang had goosebumps all over his body, and said differently: "Master, hurry up and drink the soup that Sister Wanrong cooked for you!"

Bai Yi held a bowl of soup, the soup was a little bitter and astringent, and Bai Yi, who was proficient in cooking, knew that it was tears falling into the soup.

"It's delicious, it's the happiest soup I've ever drunk in my life. ”

The light reflected Yue Wanrong's face, which became more and more coquettish.

"Lord, Lord!"

Eager shouts rang out, one after another, like wind chimes.

Bai Yi stepped out of the kitchen, Ju Jian happened to see Bai Yi, so he urgently called: "Sister, I have found the Lord!" The four sisters chattered and quickly gathered together.

Zhu Jian said: "Lord, don't run around! ”

"Lord, please go back to the room with the slaves and maids, you have slept for a long time, and we will groom you. ”

"Mei Jian, Lan Jian, you inform Granny Yu that the gathered tribes, island masters, and cave masters will gather in the front hall, I think you will naturally have something to do when you go to the Central Plains this time. ”

After Bai Yi finished speaking, he took Wan Rong and said, "Sister Rong, Wushuang, you have all worked hard!"

Lu Wushuang grinned and said, "Where is the hard work, the apprentice serves the master, that is a matter of course!"

Bai Yi followed the bamboo and chrysanthemum swords back to the wing room to freshen up, and wore the Vulture Venerable Robe that had been scented with Dao! Bamboo Jian's bright eyes turned, and he smiled and said, "It looks like our Venerable Lord." ”

"You girl, don't I usually look like it. ”

Ju Jian finished arranging Bai Yi's clothes and replied, "The Venerable Lord is usually more like our family. ”

"Silly girl, I am your family. The bamboo sword's face was like the morning glow, as if it was blooming with flames, and he was sideways and delicate, not daring to look at the white clothes again.

The door creaked open, and Mei Jian and Lan Jian said, "Lord, everything is arranged, please move." ”

A remote and secluded house, two magnificent gates, hanging two pairs of octagonal lanterns, the courtyard living room inside is magnificent, graceful and luxurious, although it is very different from the Vulture Palace, but it is also a mansion in Junzhou.

The living room is paved with stalls in the Western Regions, the desk is placed with celadon baling bottles, and dozens of Peugeot and delicate girls are standing, wearing Taoist robes, hairpin flowers, and combing flying fairy buns.

The leaders of the Haotian Ministry, Granny Yu and Xu Shenai, the commanders of the Yangtian Ministry, Fu Minyi, Hui Xiang, and Hui Lin, the leaders of the Zhu Tianbu, Shi Lan, the leader of the Chitian Ministry, Chen Miaodeng, the leader of the Youtian Ministry, Qin Wuwu, the commander of the Luan Tianbu, He Fani, and the leader of the Xuantian Ministry, Feng Susu, all gathered in the main hall.

In addition to the Vulture Palace, Duanmu Yuan, Sang Tugong, Xuanhuangzi, Long-haired Camel, etc., as well as Li Xian, Ha Daba, and Zhang Dafu from the Seventy-two Islands also gathered here.

"The commanders rushed to the Central Plains, is there something important, don't be polite, just talk about the matter!"

Bai Yi took Mei Lan Zhuju, Lu Wushuang and Yue Wanrong stepped into the living room, Lu Wushuang and Yue Wanrong stepped aside, and Mei Lan Zhuju stood respectfully beside Bai Yi.

Lu Wushuang secretly looked at the expression of the Nine Divisions, looking at the thirty-six caves and the seventy-two islands.

Granny Yu said: "Lord, the old slave has something important to do in the Central Plains this time, a few days ago, the Wuyi faction's Wu commander received a letter, which invited all the heroes of the world to participate in the Zhenlong chess meeting in Drum Mountain, and the head of the house was impressively listed. ”

"Oh, could it be that the Zhenlong Chess Club has something to do with the Loose Sect?"

"Grandma found out that Ding Chunqiu, the villain who framed the predecessors of the Xiaoyao faction Wuyazi, was about to rush to the Central Plains to participate in the Zhenlong Chess Club, so Grandma sent us to help kill Ding Qiuchun's thief. ”

Bai Yi thought secretly: "Since I am the head of the Carefree Sect, it seems that this matter belongs to me, but since Ding Chunqiu is a member of the Carefree Sect, how can I easily kill it, or wait until Drum Mountain to make a decision." ”

"Drum Mountain, Su Xinghe, according to legend, this person is the head of the deaf and dumb family, the people in the rivers and lakes are called Mr. Cong Bian, and he is very proficient in chess. ”

"When will the Zhenlong Chess Conference be held, and where is the Drum Mountain?"

Shi Lan replied: "Drum Mountain is in Wuling Taoyuan, and the Zhenlong chess game will be opened in three days." ”

"Bamboo sword, pen, ink, paper, inkstone. ”

The white clothes were shy, Wen Cai Feiyang finished writing a letter, looked at Zhang Dafu and said: "Master Zhangdao, I have one thing to tell you, you pass this letter to the predecessors of Hong Qigong in Lintao Mansion, and tell him to wait and see what happens, so as not to fall into the Ming Sect and the Mongolian schemes." ”

"Yes. ”

Zhang Dafu took the letter, turned around and disappeared into the courtyard.

"The matter of Lintao Mansion is very urgent, this trip to Wuling Taoyuan, we must fight quickly!"

The convening of the Zhenlong Chess Club is even more imminent. He only has one thing to solve, one thing to solve slowly.

"We'll leave tomorrow morning. ”

Feng Suqiu looked forward to it, and said with a smile: "Venerable Lord, your injuries are too serious, how can you be tired of traveling!"

"Thank you for your concern, but we haven't even figured out the purpose of Mr. Cong Bian's purpose on this trip. ”

The ladies still wanted to persuade again, but Bai Yi waved his palms and smiled: "Everyone, please rest early, you have to hurry tomorrow morning!"

Outside the courtyard, cobbled paths.

Lu Wushuang tugged at a touch of hair in front of his chest and said, "Master, you are really enough to toss, your injuries have not healed, so you want to go to Drum Mountain." ”

"I was taught martial arts by my senior sister, since it was the order of my master, how dare I have the slightest fatigue. ”

Lu Wushuang's bright eyes blinked, and he asked, "Is the master the uncle you are talking about?" I heard Sister Qin say that grandma can stay young forever, is that true? ”

Mei Jian said: "That's natural. ”

The girls chattered, and Yue Wanrong looked at the blooming chrysanthemums, speechless all the way.

In the early morning of the second day, the sun was shining, and a sedan chair was waiting in front of the mansion. In order to avoid suspicion in the rivers and lakes, Bai Yi took the commanders of all the tribes, as well as several island owners and cave masters, to Wuling.

Bai Yi looked at the sedan chair, shook his head and smiled: "I'm too old to walk, and I still need someone to carry it!"

Lu Wushuang changed into a snow-white shirt, which made her more beautiful and moving, she smiled and said: "Master, you are really, we will find you a sedan chair, because we are afraid that you will blow and spill." ”

The speed of the sedan chair was too slow, so we simply rode horses.

"No, I can't. ”

The women spoke in unison.

Duanmu Yuan said with a smile: "According to our footsteps, this trip is not much distance, can the Venerable Lord bear to live up to the kindness of this group of fairy girls." ”

The white clothes swept into the sedan chair, set off towards Wuling, and crossed the Yangtze River to Lizhou the next day.

"Lord, when you go to Lizhou City, please come out and breathe the wind!" Mei Lan Zhuju shouted.

Bai Yi stepped out of the sedan chair and said: "Alas, stuffy in the sedan chair, thanks to you to relieve fatigue, otherwise I would have been bored and sick, Lizhou to Wuling is also very close, when we finish eating, we will ride forward." ”

Lizhou City is very lively, and many heroes in white clothes are holding knives and swords, and they are obviously also rushing to Wuling City.

Mei Lan Zhuju four maids pulled white clothes, a while to go here, a while to go there, the girls bought a lot of gold and silver jewelry, rouge gouache Fang arrived at the high-end inn arranged by Duanmu Yuan.

The inn was empty, only an old shopkeeper, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old maid, who thought it should be Duanmu Yuan who drove away the male guys.

"Cave masters and island owners have worked hard all the way, let's all sit and eat!"

The aroma of wine is overflowing, and many of the products served to the table are specialties of Lizhou.

"This is the purple rice porridge in Lizhou, which can replenish blood and qi, I specially ordered it for the lord and the girls. As soon as Duanmu Yuan's voice fell, the little girl held a plate with delicate dishes and chopsticks, full of purple rice porridge.

Bai Yi stood up and took the plate for the girl, Mei Lan Zhuju's face was slightly red, but it was Bai Yi who secretly made a breath of energy, so that they couldn't move a bit.

"My body is going to be rusty! You serve me on weekdays, so I'll bring you a bowl of porridge. ”

Bai Yi handed the porridge for a few nights to the daughters.

The old shopkeeper who was standing on the side stared at Bai Yi suspiciously, and suddenly seemed to remember something, hesitated for a moment and stepped forward suddenly, and said respectfully and surprisedly: "You, you are a special food critic, right? ”

The white clothes looked at him, his clothes were stained with oil, he had two beards, and his eyes were very shrewd.

"Oh, old man, just tell me about it?"

The plainly dressed little girl said, "Grandpa wants to make osmanthus fish sticks, but he has never been able to get the essentials, he wants to ask you for advice!"

"Osmanthus fish sticks are made of fresh sea bass, this dish can be used to strengthen the blood, strengthen the spleen and invigorate qi, the main skill is fried, what needs to be highlighted is fresh, and the delicacy of the sea bass can not be lost. ”

The white clothes were talking, and the old man Ma couldn't help nodding, and wrote quickly on the paper with a brush. Duanmu Yuan and the other island owners and cave owners were all surprised, but they didn't expect that Bai Yi was proficient in cooking.

"That's probably what you should pay attention to, Wanrong, Wushuang, all the commanders, can you get together, I'll cook for you and make this dish for you to taste. ”

Everyone showed a look of panic, but Lu Wushuang smiled and said: "I heard this old man say that the master is proficient in the Manchu and Han full banquets, and the cooking skills are even more magical, and I am really fortunate to be able to taste it, I am really fortunate to have three lives, I am willing to follow the master for the rest of my life, so that I will eat different food every day and every meal every year." ”

"Sister Wanrong, did you say yes. ”

Lu Wushuang grabbed Wan Rong's jade arm, and Wan Rong nodded lightly, looking very unhappy.

"Rong'er, you can help me!"

Yue Wanrong's eyes instantly brightened, revealing a smile and said, "Okay." ”

From time to time, everyone could hear the exclamations and sighs in the kitchen, and everyone was anxiously waiting for the moment when the dishes were served.

Wan Rong looked at the meticulous white clothes with flames in her eyes, and her heart gradually softened, it was her white clothes, the person she loved deeply.

Wan Rong handed him the ingredients, laid her hands, and was full of joy.

"It's done, it's really exciting. ”

The old man, the little girl looked at the sixteen dishes full of them, so exquisite that she couldn't bear to swallow them. There are spicy beef, jade bean cake, hydrangea whole fish, hibiscus fish bones, lotus crisp, lotus seed cake, fragrant snail bowl, osmanthus fish sticks, etc. Thinking of the bird's nest that Li Xian gave him, Bai Yi made a big bowl of first-grade official swallows for the girl of the Vulture Palace.

"Oh my God! This is a miracle, this dish is the pinnacle of culinary skills!"

The old man muttered to himself, Bai Yi was simply imaginative when he made the dishes, using the subtle control of the five elements to make everything perfect.

The old man and his granddaughter went out with the delicacies, Yue Wanrong's face became redder and redder, and Bai Yi felt that her lips were sweet, but Yue Wanrong secretly kissed him.

"Brother Yi, let's go, don't let them wait. ”

Wan Rong lowered her head, too ashamed to look at the white clothes.

Bai Yi had just stepped out of the kitchen when he heard a noise in front of him. (To be continued.) )
