At Chenshi, Bawang Chen brought Jun Buyu and Xiaoyun to the imperial study room, planning to ask Li Xiuyuan to eat together.
Xiaoyun rushed to push the door, only to hear a creak. She slowly pushed the heavy door open. There was a faint fragrance of tea in the room, but there was no one.
"Little Taoist priest, where are you?" Xiaoyun became anxious and couldn't help shouting.
"Stop shouting, he has already left."
Jun Buyu stood in front of the large desk, looked at the ink marks on the desk, and said with a wry smile, "Well, even I am disgusted by him."
Ba Wangdong stepped forward and took a look. Well, even he and Xiaoyun were not allowed to go to Luoxia Mountain for the time being. They said they would wait until the empress came back and Li Xiu was quiet for a few days.
Xiaoyun looked at it again and again, and couldn't help shouting: "He doesn't want to see the empress so much? This is too cruel."
Overlord Chen smiled bitterly and said, "It's King Qin he doesn't want to see. If your Majesty wants to see him, you can go to the mountain."
Jun Buyu sighed: "I will wait for two more days. If Queen Changsun doesn't come back, I will have to go to the mountains to live for a few days."
At this moment, Hua Xiaoyu brought Chu Ruoyu all the way to the imperial study room, looked at the open door, and walked in.
Looking at Jun Buyu, he asked, "Where are the people?"
Jun Buyu shook his head: "I left early in the morning. My brother doesn't like to stay in the imperial city... Ouch, that's not right, you There's something wrong with you two ..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiaoyun, who was looking around for no one but no one, came in again, looked at everyone and exclaimed: "Damn it, I remember that all the flowers, plants and trees here were dead yesterday..."
Overlord Chen then remembered, turned around and walked out. Looking at the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh: "I told you, my brother is a god."
Xiaoyun took Hua Xiaoyu's hand and asked, "Tell me, did the little Taoist priest go to you last night and give you the elixir?"
Hua Xiaoyu shook her head and said with a wry smile: "Princess and I were both in a dream, but we only found out when we woke up in the morning. How could we break through the dream after just one sleep?"
Jun Buyu looked in the direction of Luoxia Mountain and shouted: "I don't care, I will go find him in three days."
Hua Xiaoyu smiled and said, "I want to go too."
Chu Ruoyu thought for a while and said, "I want to find my brother now."
Xiaoyun held her hand and comforted her: "That's not possible. There are probably many people on the mountain. You have to let him rest for two days, and we will go back together."
Chu Ruoyu frowned, looked at Jun Buyu and said, "Okay, I'll go with you then."
After speaking, he reached out and picked a flower, put it to his lips and smelled it, then said in a daze, "Xiaoyu, this flower just bloomed in the morning."
Xiaoyun looked at the two girls and smiled bitterly: "We came back a little late, otherwise there would be a mountain of apricot blossoms on Luoxia Mountain."
…
Riding a white horse back to my hometown, you are not there for ten miles in the spring breeze.
Holding the horse, Li Xiuyuan bathed in the spring breeze and stood under the tall stone platform, feeling like a dream.
Luoxia Mountain can be regarded as his second hometown.
Although the old Taoist priest who picked him up from the mountains had ascended and left when he was nine years old, there are still memories here that he can't shake off.
We walked around the stone platform and came to the wooden house at the back. However, I don't know when the wooden house collapsed and was replaced by a stone house.
Letting go of the horse's reins, Li Xiuyuan slowly climbed up the stairs and came to the door of the living room.
At half past midnight, a ray of sunlight fell in front of the door, illuminating him with golden light.
Looking at the man sitting in the room, stroking his belly and worrying, he screamed strangely, rushed out, hugged him and shouted: "Monster, I'm starving to death..."
"I'm not your parent, it's none of my business if you're hungry."
Li Xiuyuan walked towards the house and asked, "Where is Old Man Zhang? Are there people living on the mountain? Why do you stay at the foot of the mountain?"
Chu Feng sighed and smiled bitterly: "The mountains are full of women. If you don't come back today, I will go to Tianfeng City."
Okay, old man Zhang went to the village to buy vegetables. He should be back now.
. "
"Women? Are they all elders and disciples of Taoyuan? Where is Li Yun?"
Sitting at the table, Li Xiuyuan put the food box on the table and smiled: "It's not cold yet, eat it quickly."
After saying that, he lit a fire, fetched spring water, and placed the kettle on it to boil water.
When Chu Feng saw it was beef noodles, he couldn't help but ask: "What, the trouble in Tianfeng City has been solved?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and replied calmly: "You are so generous that you actually gave up your own home and went to become your son-in-law."
Chu Feng ignored him and started eating a piece of beef until half of the bowl of noodles was finished and Li Xiuyuan was holding a cup of spiritual tea.
Then he sighed and said with a wry smile: "I can't beat the emperor, so what's the difference between staying there and seeking death?"
Li Xiuyuan was startled. After he lowered his head and took a sip of tea, he sent a message to Old Man Zhang in the village: "I bought beef noodles. Come back to eat noodles first. I'm in the stone house at the foot of the mountain."
Old man Zhang, who was wandering around the village, trembled when he heard this and immediately replied: "Come on, come on."
Li Xiuyuan then looked at Chu Feng and smiled: "That's not your imperial uncle. When he was in the Demon Realm, his soul was devoured by the demon in the abyss. Of course you can't beat him."
After thinking for a while, he said: "Only you, the Imperial Master, know about this matter. I guess your parents should have returned to Dachu by now..."
Chu Feng then nodded and replied: "I always felt that the emperor's uncle would be yin and yang when he came back, but I didn't expect that he had turned into a demon."
"That's all in the past. I came all the way from Black Salt City and Qingfeng Valley. Jun Buyu hid in Qingfeng Valley and would rather endure hardship than attack your Black Salt City. You owe him a favor."
Li Xiuyuan sighed and said calmly: "The Demon Realm is currently divided into two factions. Jun Buyu's parents were imprisoned by the Demon King, and the Gongsun family became slaves of the Demon King."
Chu Feng patted his thigh and said bitterly: "No wonder that's the case. Where are the others? I have to have a few drinks with him."
Li Xiuyuan pointed to the door and said calmly: "He is at the palace in Tianfeng City. You go now, just in time for lunch."
When Chu Feng heard this, he shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, wait until he comes here to find you."
After finishing a bowl of noodles, Chu Feng stuck out his tongue and licked the bottom of the bowl. Li Xiuyuan was so angry that he laughed and said: "There are still a few bowls left. If you like it, just eat one more bowl. Don't be embarrassed."
Chu Feng chuckled when he heard this: "I thought you bought it and wanted to take it up the mountain to feed Li Yun and the others."
"You are overthinking. How many people does Elder Taoyuan have?"
Li Xiuyuan replied calmly: "I'll buy it and eat it whenever I see it. If you don't want it, I'll eat it myself."
Just as he was talking, Old Man Zhang came in carrying a basket of vegetables. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Li Xiuyuan's appearance, then he laughed and said, "Young Master has indeed returned to his youth again."
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "There are still noodles. You and Chu Feng can eat two bowls each. If you have anything to do, we can wait until you finish. Don't be in a hurry."
For Li Xiuyuan, as long as Old Man Zhang is fine, Li Yun and others are fine, and the villagers are fine, even if the sky falls, they can still take care of themselves.
When Old Man Zhang saw it was beef noodles, he immediately laughed and said, "I haven't been to Tianfeng City for a long time since the accident."
Li Xiuyuan was speechless upon hearing this, and had no choice but to ask: "Please give some money to the people who got into the accident. Even if Empress Changsun comes back, there will be nothing you can do if this happens."
When Old Man Zhang heard this, he quickly replied: "I gave you the money a long time ago. You left me a lot more last time."
When Chu Feng heard about the deaths in the village, he had nothing to do.
He replied with a grimace: "At that time, I was still at Tianmen Pass with the princess, sister, and the others, fighting against the demon army... This place is probably an empty city."
"I can't blame you for this. I killed that guy from the Gongsun family and the demons from the Demon Realm. I also ordered Overlord Chen to kill everyone in Tianfeng City who didn't surrender."
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and asked, "I'm going to Baijin City and Taoyuan in a few days. Are you going back to Dachu now, or are you going with me?"
Chu Feng was startled when he heard this and asked cautiously: "Are you going to enter the demonic realm?"
"Otherwise? Could it be that after we leave, we will let them harm your parents?"
Li Xiuyuan pointed to the door and replied coldly: "The sword monument I erected outside the village clearly states that since they are blind, I will conquer the Demon Realm and leave no one behind."
Chu Feng took a breath of air, and after a while he replied: "We can talk about this after my sister and Hua Tianyu arrive."
Li Xiuyuan laughed: "How dare you leave Chu Feiyan alone in the Demon Realm?"
Chu Feng shook his head and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? That guy Hua Tianyu is very obedient right now. He is as obedient as a kitten and has no manliness at all."
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, looked at Old Man Zhang and asked, "Can so many people live on the mountain?"
Old man Zhang smiled and said, "They don't live in Guanli. They have built many wooden houses in the back mountains. They are quite spacious. How about I call Li Yun down for you?"
"Don't worry, I don't want to do anything today. I just want to spend a quiet day under the mountain."
Li Xiuyuan sighed and said leisurely: "It's a pity that I came back a little late. The apricot flowers on this mountain have all faded."
Old Man Zhang thought for a while and replied with a smile: "If you can't see the flowers, you can still wait to eat the spring apricots from this mountain."
Li Xiuyuan withdrew his consciousness from looking at the mountains and was speechless for a moment. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to eat the spring apricots this season.
After thinking for a long time, he said: "When I rest for two days, I will repair the formation outside the village again. I hope it can protect you from the wind and rain for a hundred years."
…
Before noon, Tianfeng City began to boil.
King Qin and Queen Changsun set out from the academy and marched into Tianfeng City with their army. The people in the city finally returned to their own heaven.
The people who felt that they had not been abandoned by the emperor took to the streets to tell each other. The lively scene was even more lively than the New Year's Eve in winter.
At a quarter past noon, Changsun and King Qin returned to the imperial study room in the palace.
Looking at the situation in front of him, Changsun couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Why is this happening here? The railings and floors are broken. Why are these flowers blooming more beautifully than before I left?"
Xiaoyun smiled faintly and replied to her: "If I had come yesterday, I would have encountered that shocking battle... What happened in this garden was also a miracle last night..."
The group of people entered the royal study room, and it took Xiaoyun half an hour to give an overview of yesterday's battle and today's events.
Even so, King Qin and the eldest grandson were stunned.
Standing aside, Bawang Sun looked at the indifference on King Qin's face, and thought to himself that his brother was still smart, so he didn't want any good or bad ones, so he slapped his butt and left early in the morning.
Regardless of whether you are the emperor or the empress, I won't buy anyone's fault, and I don't need your favors.
Changsun didn't expect that Li Xiuyuan would leave early in the morning. Looking at the note left on the table and the familiar yet unfamiliar handwriting, he couldn't help but sigh softly.
He said in a daze: "He must have restrained himself to the extreme. There is no trace of domineering sword spirit in these words."
Only then did Xiaoyun come back to her senses.
He leaned over and looked at it again and again, and then replied thoughtfully: "I may not believe it, but the little Taoist priest now is even worse than before, and there is no aura in his body."
"Did he become a mortal?"
Changsun couldn't help but frown, looked at Overlord Chen on the side and asked: "Can a mortal who is not even as good as you kill that demon from the Demon Realm?"
Overlord Chen shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Not to mention me and Xiaoyun, even Jun Buyu from the Demon Realm, the three of us together are no match for that old eunuch!"
Xiaoyun thought for a moment and said, "That old eunuch is also a devil."
