Chen Guo, Linchuan County.
There is a mountain in Linchuan named Bei. The northern mountains are wild and dangerous, so living things are rare and people are hard to find.
However, there is a valley in the mountain, which is called Cang; where there are flowers hidden in the valley, it is called Luo.
The Luo flower has been in bud for ten years and blooms once. When the flowers bloom, their fragrant fragrance spreads for ten miles and persists through the day, which is a wonder.
At that time, the painter Yan was trapped in the mountains and strayed into Canggu when he was lost. It happened that Luohua was in full bloom. He was so surprised that he couldn't help but feel pity for it, so he started painting the grand scene.
After he got out of trouble, the paintings were sold in the market, and everyone who saw them praised them, and even became famous.
Later, the painting was transferred to the hands of a county king. The king of the county loved flowers as much as his life, so he led a hundred or so servants to visit them in search of flowers. He returned alone for several years.
When he returned home, he immediately divorced all his wives and concubines and said: "When I see the smile of Fairy Yujing, there is no more rouge color in the world."
There are rumors that the prince met a fairy in the sea of Luo flowers. The fairy smiled and her beauty was pale! For a time, the name of the Flower Fairy became very popular.
Over the years since then, there has been an endless stream of people coming and going to Beishan, including many young talents and ladies from famous families. When they are not admiring flowers and looking for immortals, they splash ink, recite poems and invite couples, and the name of the Flower Fair comes from.
At the end of this ten-year period, the Flower Festival will begin. Rich businessmen from all over the country will arrive, and the gentry will gather. Even high-ranking officials and nobles from the royal palace will work tirelessly and come all the way without fear of hardships and dangers.
You need to know that although exotic flowers are good, they are not as beautiful as the fairy flowers!
Beishan Town.
Tongfu Restaurant, second floor.
Yuan Qingan was sitting by the window, with a plate of peanuts and a small jar of jujube paste in front of him; on the other side of the table lay a small civet cat beast, about two feet in size, with a white body and golden eyebrows.
The little beast looked at the peanuts with a curious look on his face. He picked up one in his mouth, chewed it twice, and quickly spit it out. The young man drank in silence as if nothing had happened.
Seeing that Yuan Qing kept raising the glass, the little beast's curiosity reappeared, and his nose twitched slightly as he wanted to step forward; the young man frowned slightly, took the porcelain bowl and poured a bowl for him.
But the color of the wine is as clear as crystal, and the aroma is rich, like flowers and fruits.
The little beast first stuck out his tongue and licked it, and then drank it. The bowl of wine was gone in a blink of an eye, while his golden eyes were staring at Yuan Qing, and his little paws gently pushed the porcelain bowl, hoping for another bowl.
The young man kept his expression as he filled the bowl, but he didn't even notice the hint of smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Sigh, I don't know if ordinary people like us will ever have the chance to see the Flower Fairy in this life." The next table sighed while the cups and cups were being exchanged.
"In the past decades, I have only heard the name of the Flower Fairy, but never seen the fairy's true appearance. Brother Wan, why should I think too much! Let me tell you, the Luohua Festival is held once every ten years, just recite poems and admire the flowers. At that time, talented people are looking for beauties. Isn’t it beautiful to spend a lifetime in front of flowers?”
"Haha, Brother Yu is open-minded. It's Wan who's being naughty. You should punish yourself with a drink!"
"Hahaha, let's drink together! Brother Wan, please!"
On the other side, the little beast suddenly raised his head from the wine bowl, licked his mouth, and said via voice: "Yuan Qing, what is Huahui? And Huaxian, can you eat it? Is it delicious?"
The young man ignored it, drank the contents of the cup, and went downstairs by himself.
The little beast jumped and followed behind, while continuing to transmit the message: "Yuanqing, this princess has decided to go to the Flower Fair! Also, what I drank just now is fragrant and sweet, and it is very good. , buy more!”
The young man still ignored it, dropped the spirit stone, and walked away. However, there were several jars of "Flower Fairy Brew" in the storage bag in his sleeve.
The store owner didn't know what the spiritual stone was, but seeing that the jade was crystal clear and about the size of a walnut, he didn't dare to ask anything else.
Walking in the town, Yuan Qing said calmly: "If you want to go to the flower party, you can go. Yuan has something important to do, so I won't accompany you."
The little beast heard the long tail wagging slightly and replied: "If you don't accompany me, I will make a big fuss at the flower party and cause all the trouble to you. Anyway, there is a spiritual mark here, you want to run away I can’t run away either.”
When the young man heard this, his face darkened, he turned around and looked at each other coldly.
The little beast showed no fear, raised its head, and raised the corners of its mouth slightly, as if smiling.
After a moment, Yuan Qing sighed softly, shook his head, chose a restaurant, and said lightly: "My son, stay in the hotel."
...
One month ago, somewhere in the hills of Fengmu County.
The spiritual light descended from the sky, and two figures, a man and a beast, appeared.
The little beast was in good condition, except for the excessive consumption of mana. Yuan Qing's face was pale, his internal organs were displaced, his meridians were damaged, and his sword energy was almost exhausted. He staggered a few steps, and finally couldn't hold on and fell down. On the ground.
The little beast was startled when he saw this, and moved forward, sniffing and looking. Then he lifted up the smoke and carried the young man, found a secret cave, and hid.
After seven full days and nights, Yuan and Qing finally woke up.
What he saw was a rugged stone wall, and then the pain in his organs and meridians swept over him, like acupuncture. The young man frowned and couldn't help but groan.
"You're finally awake."
The clear girl's voice sounded in his mind, Yuan Qing turned his head and saw the little beast looking at him three feet away, with its head slightly raised and its long tail swaying lightly, looking arrogant.
"After guarding you for seven days and seven nights, this princess will be bored to death!" the little beast continued.
After forcing himself to sit up, the young man replied lightly "Thank you", then took out the elixir and went into meditation to heal his injuries.
The little beast was about to say something more, but he also knew what was right. He came to the entrance of the cave and spit out a ball of milky white light to cover it. Then he came back to the young man, curled up his feet and lay down, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The silver glow was as light as a dream, and in the blink of an eye, it was another seven days.
"call......"
The silver light gradually faded, Yuan Qing opened his eyes, and took a long breath like a puff of mist.
This time the injury was more serious than he expected. Fortunately, there were enough elixirs and the mysterious sword scripture, so he could fully restore his old outlook and truly comply with the sentence: "Things that are forewarned will be established, and those that are not forewarned will be ruined."
Standing up from his clothes, the young man solemnly bowed his head to the little beast and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, fellow Taoist, for your support. We have settled our grievances. We have a long road ahead, so take care of yourself and say goodbye."
After saying that, he lifted his feet and walked away.
The little beast immediately became anxious and blocked the entrance of the cave, asking, "Where are you going? I'll go with you!"
The young man stood still and replied calmly: "There are differences between humans and monsters, not to mention that my Taoist friend has the true vein of Qilin, so it is really inconvenient for us to travel together."
"Hmph, then let's go! Anyway, there is a spiritual mark, and I can find it wherever you go." The little beast hummed.
Yuan Qing frowned slightly when he heard this, and asked: "What is this mark? Yuan thinks that there are no omissions in several fights, and when and where was this mark planted? I hope fellow Taoists will give you some advice."
"Humph, there is a difference between a human and a monster, who is your Taoist friend!" The little beast said bitterly: "Also, listen up, my name is Yu Jian, and you will call me Her Royal Highness from now on! As for this spiritual breath mark, it's not Blame yourself."
"I would like to hear the details." The young man bowed again and asked.
The little beast shook its long tail, spoke in a slightly slower tone, and said, "Let me ask you, when this princess was unconscious last time, did you touch the Xuanfeixianjin in my body?"
The young man thought for a while and replied: "But that rune mystical ban? That's the case."
The little beast continued: "Although I don't know how you avoided the counterattack of the Immortal Forbidden City, after that, your aura, smell, appearance, and even the breath of your soul turned into imprinted seeds and stayed in the Immortal Forbidden City. . The Immortal Forbidden City remains unsolved for a day, and the mark never fades away. Not to mention the ends of the earth and the ends of the earth, even the blue sky and the underworld, I, the princess, can use this as a guide to find you."
After saying that, Ding Ding looked at Yuan Qing, his golden eyes sparkling and his expression inexplicable.
The young man was silent when he heard the words, and after a moment he asked: "What is the meaning of the immortal ban?"
With a slight snort, the little beast replied disdainfully: "Hmph, a mere foundation-building monk just wants to break the Xuanfei Immortal Forbidden City, so he doesn't overestimate his ability!"
Then he changed the topic and continued: "Also, even if I know the solution to the Forbidden Immortal, do you think this princess will tell you?"
Duanshui took out his sleeves and Yuan Qing shouted in a deep voice: "The sky is big and the earth is big, why do you insist on entangled with me?"
Not willing to be outdone, the little beast loomed with golden light all over his body and replied: "I like this princess, can you care?"
The young man was speechless. After thinking for a while, he said as if he had accepted his fate: "Follow me if you want."
After speaking, he shook his hand and threw out a burst of sword energy, broke through the barrier at the entrance of the cave, and left with his sword.
The little beast twitched its ears, turned into a cloud of smoke, and followed closely behind.
Few days left.
"Hey, what's your name? If you don't tell me, I will call you 'Hello' from now on."
"Yuanqing."
"Yuanqing, where are you going?"
"Yuan Qing, what's in your gourd, I want to have a taste of it."
"Yuan Qing, aren't you bored practicing all day long?"
"Yuan Qing, you are quite comfortable in this cloud. I, the princess, declare that this place belongs to me from now on!"
"Yuanqing, I'm hungry."
...
Ten days later, Beishan, Canggu.
Everything is quiet and the night is like ink, but there are people in Canggu and the lights are bright.
On the stone walls around the valley, towers stand against the mountain; inside the towers, there are many people standing, sitting, drinking, singing, bustling and lively.
In the center of the terrace is a vast sea of flowers, covering hundreds of acres. The flowers are as round as beads, and their color is as green as water. However, the flowering period has not yet come, and they are still in bud.
At midnight, the moon is in the middle of the sky, and the moonlight is bright and shining on the sea of flowers.
Suddenly the wind blows and extinguishes all the lights in the world; then the light comes back, but Luohua blooms and thousands of flowers bloom!
The glistening light mixed with the cold moonlight illuminated the entire valley! The moonlight is blue and the Luohua is bright and dreamlike. It is hard to tell whether the flowers are imprinted on the moon or the moon is dyed on the flowers.
Then, dots of crystal blue rose from the sea of flowers and gathered together, vaguely looking like a girl.
The girl looked back, then took advantage of the mountain breeze, accompanied by the fragrance of flowers, and flew towards the moon.
The crowd fell into dead silence for a long time, and finally they all burst into exclamations of exclamation.
Then, the lights were lit again, and the sounds of singing, music, and poetry recited one after another, just like the flower party.
Among them was a young man in rich clothes. He gently shook his folding fan and chanted loudly: "If there are flowers that can be folded, they must be broken. Don't wait for the flowers to fall and break the branches."
Then he went downstairs and stretched out his hand to fold the flowers.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he got closer, his fingertips felt tingling, like falling into an ice cellar. He hurriedly took back his hand and looked back. His fingers were fine, but even the cuffs were stained with a layer of frost.
"Master Ke, how does this Luohua Ice taste?" Someone on the balcony joked.
The young man waved his sleeves and said with a wry smile: "Ke was so reckless that I made everyone laugh. I will punish myself with a drink."
...
Over the valley.
In the clouds, Yuan Qing slightly cupped his hands toward the void in front of him; the little beast was lying on the side, staring at a certain place in the void, tilting his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
But in the eyes of the two, in the void, with Luo flowers as clothes and moonlight as skirts, a beautiful woman saluted and said at the same time: "There are many people today, so it will be inconvenient. I hope you will tell me tomorrow evening."
Its sound is ringing, like beautiful jade striking each other, and like wind chimes in an empty valley.
...
Somewhere in the valley.
A man, in his thirties, wearing a black and white mysterious robe, looked at the clouds in the sky, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"interesting......"
