Chapter 20 The mountain gate is in sight
The early summer sun hung brightly, tirelessly sprinkling the stuffy heat, as if jealous of the calm of this western Zhejiang Canyon, and had to irritate it. The winding mountain road is rarely inhabited, and occasionally a gust of mountain wind blows and blows the leaves, giving some sound in the silence of the mountains.
It was in the afternoon, and there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves at the other end of the mountain road, which gradually sounded, and a group of people and horses jumped into view.
The first is an old man who is nearly fifty years old, with a long beard and a plain robe, and a graceful demeanor, which is Bai Xiao, the head of the Shenxiao faction. Behind him, four boys, one woman, and five young men, each riding a horse, were Bai Xiao's daughter Bai Ling and a group of disciples. Among them, there is Xiang Shaoying, the young master of Shenjian Villa, who was tragically destroyed in Chong'an Canyon, he rode a white horse and followed at the end in a trance. Since taking care of his father's funeral, his mood has calmed down slightly, and what he has in his heart is more gratitude to Bai Xiao and the determination to take revenge. It's just that the wind and dust along the way, coupled with the lack of food, at this time the weak body is already a little uncomfortable, but he doesn't want to show it, especially self-improvement.
The mountain gate of the Shenxiao Sect was already in sight, and everyone pulled the horse rope and slowed down. Xiang Shaoying didn't pay attention, and still rushed straight to the front in a trance, and then came to his senses, quickly pulled the horse rope, and stopped waiting.
This reckless move made Bai Ling "giggle" and laugh. After all, she is young and simple-minded, and when she witnessed the tragedy in Chong'an Canyon, her grief in her heart was not weaker than that of her senior brother, but she left it behind after a day. Along the way, she was very unhappy to see that everyone was silent, and some were still worried, and the original plan for the tour was canceled, which made her very unhappy. There is nowhere to vent the sulking that has been held back, and when you catch a laugh at this time, how can you let it go.
Several senior brothers also accompanied the fake smile, Bai Ling was even more proud, and said to Ye Feisha, who was laughing the most: "Third senior brother...... The last time you said the story of going to Lin'an with the fifth senior brother, you only told half of it, go on, continue to ......"
"Uh...... We're not going to play, we're going to carry out tasks. Ye Feisha was embarrassed, squeezed his eyebrows and glanced at Bai Xiao, and then smiled at Bai Ling again.
"Whatever...... Tell me, where did you go later?" Bai Ling stared at the phoenix, like a pear blossom bathing in the mountain breeze, so delicate that it was intoxicating.
Ye Feisha's heart throbbed, and he subconsciously shook the green silk in his ears, and said in a storytelling tone: "It is said that I finished the big thing with Lao Wu that day, walked on the streets of Lin'an, and witnessed this great Song Dynasty imperial capital, magnificent and magnificent, and the heroes and heroes from all over the world gathered on the streets, only to feel dizzying...... There is a verse that sings well......"
"Talking about the point!! Ye Feisha was shaking his head as he spoke, and he was about to sing, but he interrupted Bai Ling with a coquettish shout.
Ye Feisha was stunned for a moment, the last time he talked about Lin'an's style, Bai Ling was obviously fascinated by it, why was she impatient today? What did she want to hear? The girl's mind is really wonderful, but she doesn't know what she wants, so she wants you to guess. Every now and then, Ye Feisha will secretly envy Nie Fan, if you talk about the talent of guessing people's minds, the Shenxiao faction is afraid that no one can match this kid, but he is a wood, like a Maitreya Buddha all day long, without desires.
Ye Feisha saw Bai Lingying's lips pursed, suddenly moved, cleared his throat, and said, "If you want to say that this pleasure of traveling to Lin'an, it is nothing more than ...... Eat ......"
Ye Feisha originally wanted to say: "Eat, drink, play, have fun!" But he didn't think that as soon as he said "eat", he saw Bai Ling nodding vigorously, and his heart suddenly realized, the little junior sister was really still a staunch foodie.
"Lin'an's famous food is also well-known all over the world, what West Lake vinegar fish, called Huatong chicken, Taoism is a famous dish of the palace, but to say the most famous, it is the eighteen banquets of Tianxiang Restaurant......"
Ye Feisha added fuel and vinegar to the description, Bai Ling's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he turned his head to Han Zheng, who was silent in front of him, and said, "Second Senior Brother, let's go to Lin'an next time we practice, and let's go and see that Tianxiang Restaurant together." β
Han Zheng's face was full of seriousness and rare relief, "hehe" for a moment, and said, "This depends on Master's arrangement." β
Bai Ling immediately glared at him, and said angrily: "Second Senior Brother, you piece of wood, why do you listen to Master for everything?!"
Han Zheng smiled and shook his head, no longer answering.
"I don't care! You must take me to Tianxiang Restaurant, I want to eat Tianxiang Eighteen Banquet. If you don't go with me, I'll go alone, if I meet a bad guy and get kidnapped, see what you do?!" Bai Ling said with his hands on his hips and huffing.
Everyone looked at the little junior sister's appearance, and they all laughed heartily, but Ye Feisha was thoughtful, he always felt that there seemed to be a deep meaning in his words. If the little junior sister is really kidnapped by the thieves, isn't it the senior brother who is still out of town, or the father Bai Xiao in front of her, who should be most worried about "what to do with herself......
Ye Feisha naturally thought too much, and just wanted to say something, only to see Bai Xiao in front of him turn his horse, his eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, and his face was full of sternness.
Bai Lingdeng was restrained, but there was a muttering on his lips: "In the wilderness, no one has seen it, and it's not on the street, what are you afraid of!"
"Bai Lingβ" Bai Xiao finally spoke, his deep voice seemed to have infinite majesty, dispelling the residual smile on the faces of the disciples. On the other hand, Bai Ling, although she looked like a well-behaved lady, there was a look of impatience between her eyebrows.
"Know--" Bai Ling replied with a low brow, but secretly stuck out his tongue.
After no one said anything for a long time, Bai Ling glanced at his mouth, lifted the horse to the end, played with the mane on the horse's head, and giggled again after a while. When everyone looked back, they saw the white dragon horse on which Bai Ling was riding, and the mane on the top of his head was actually braided into a pair of sheep's horns. I saw Bai Ling patting the horse's head, pretending to be a goat and "bleating" twice, which caused everyone to laugh. The poor white dragon horse, knowing that the young lady was amusing herself again, only sneered twice, and did not dare to complain. The young lady on her back doesn't even pay attention to the Shenxiao Six Heroes, it's a little brute, what else can she do except be submissive.
Everyone walked for a while, but they saw a towering mountain gate at the end of the mountain road ahead, between the two towering cliffs. A big plaque of stone at the top of the door, the mottled lines record the vicissitudes of the years, and the three big characters of "Shenxiao School" are written on it, which are vigorous and beautiful, as if from the hands of famous artists.
The disciples guarding the door saw the head of the door and his entourage returning, all of them were overjoyed, one person entered the house to report, and the two stepped forward to lead the horse and carry the bag, and a group of disciples came quickly. At this time, it was already sunset, but the Shenxiao faction was full of vigor and vitality, and occasionally a few strands of surprised eyes could be seen, all of which were directed towards Xiang Shaoying, a sick and beautiful man who had never met before.
Xiang Shaoying almost fell down when he got off the horse, and in a trance, he only felt that he was supported by a big hand, and then two more pairs of hands came up to help him. Under Bai Xiao's instructions, the two neighboring disciples helped Xiang Shaoying into the wing, wiped his face and freshened him, fed him some white porridge, and helped him lie on the bed to rest......
