Shen Tang Jian.
Water curtains hang down the mossy cliffs, and winding springs line the starry sky.
The valley is less than ten feet wide and hundreds of meters deep, with gurgling cold springs. Only a ray of skylight can be seen between the two cliffs. The areas where the sun cannot reach are covered with moss moistened by water vapor. Water droplets drip from the moss and form a rain curtain. It is really a big place. The nature is amazing, and it's nice to take a leisurely stroll, but I'm afraid it's not that pleasant to live here every day.
There is a cave beside the stream at the bottom of the valley, about two meters high and probably less than five meters deep. Perhaps the cave was slightly wider due to erosion by flash floods.
The entire cave was washed by water and it was very quiet. You could only hear the sound of the stream.
Inside the cave, Bai Yujun was sitting on a stone bench, holding his chin with his hands, staring at the raindrops at the entrance of the cave in a daze. An iron rope hung from the top of the cave, and the end was locked on Bai Yujun's slender left wrist.
The iron rope was so ordinary that Bai Yujun could break it with just a tug, but in that case it would be meaningless to be suppressed.
Yu Rong sent Bai Yujun here and locked him up with an iron rope before leaving. He left a message that someone would come down on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month to deliver waste elixir residues and sundries. Bai Yujun was startled when he was first handcuffed by the iron rope, thinking that Yu Rong If you want to really press yourself under the mountain, then you will really have no way to go to the sky or the earth. Fortunately, it is just an ordinary iron rope.
Helpless, humans prefer to tie animals with iron chains to prevent disaster. Although Yu Rong is kind-hearted, she is also a human being.
He stretched out his right hand to grab a waste elixir and flicked it up, opened his mouth to catch it and swallowed it with a gurgle.
"boring……"
According to the confinement regulations, no random visitors are allowed. Xu Ling and Yang Mu cannot come, and there is no one in the entire mountain valley who can talk.
If there is any luck, it must be becoming accustomed to water vapor.
According to normal conditions, if snakes stay in this humid environment for a long time, they must bask in the sun to increase their body temperature. It cannot be said that snakes like humidity. In the past, Bai Yujun would have gone crazy if he stayed here for a year.
There is a kind of fish in the creek. It may be lighter in color because there is no sunshine all day long. It is about a foot long and very fat.
Starting from hunger, Bai Yujun practiced spells seriously, just to eat fish to satisfy his appetite...
The mountain gate of Chunyang Palace.
The Chunyang disciples guarding the gate could clearly see the long line of figures on the mountain road below. The Jinwu Guards were firmly guarding two luxurious yellow sedans carried on the shoulders of strong men. The palace maid and eunuch were panting and holding ceremonial incense burners, and there were a group of other attendants behind them. Following, judging from the specifications, it is a royal trip.
The mountain has been prepared for a long time. The open space on the platform in front of the mountain gate is filled with Chunyang Palace disciples. Chu Zhe stands in front, wearing Taoist robes and preparing to welcome the distinguished guests.
None of the disciples noticed that their senior brother was distracted.
After returning to the mountain from a mission, he learned that Bai Yujun was suppressed in Shentanjian. Chu Zhe was a little uneasy. He knew that it was wrong and stupid to always think about that figure, but he just couldn't control himself.
"Eldest brother?" The junior brother behind him reminded the senior brother not to be distracted.
They looked ready to welcome the distinguished guests. After careful observation, except for Jin Wuwei, whose faces were as usual, the palace maids and eunuchs all had pale faces and trembling legs. Huashan Mountain was really high and steep. The waiters who lacked exercise on weekdays would not have been afraid of beheading. Can't climb a mountain.
Two luxurious yellow sedans were put down, the palace maid bent down and the eunuch saluted, and the female officer next to her opened the curtain of the sedan.
This scene made the Chunyang disciples who had been practicing for many years speechless. They secretly thought that if they had opened the curtain and came out for air, wouldn't it be awkward that the people inside had to be waited on before they would come out.
However, Chunyang disciples were even more stunned as they were still behind.
The curtain was also opened, the palace maids and eunuchs also bowed their heads, and the people in the two sedans also came out. What made everyone collapse was that the speed of coming out was extremely slow...
First he stretched out a hand, and a palace maid and eunuch stepped forward to hold it, then raised his feet and stretched his head...
Crows flew over the heads of the disciples...
Finally, two people in yellow clothes appeared in front of the Chunyang disciples who were participating in the welcoming ceremony. A girl wearing silk and satin, covered with jewels, about fourteen years old, and an eight-year-old pink and jade girl. little boy.
When the girl appeared, Yang Mu, the representative of Qingxu Palace who was standing behind Chu Zhe to welcome her, had his eyelids twitching.
Why is she here?
That girl was the princess who went to the Daming Palace to celebrate the birthday of Emperor Tang and fell in love with Yang Mu. Li Xiangling, known as Princess Xiangling, was really good-looking. Yang Mu feared her like a snake or a scorpion. She was the only girl who could change the color of Bingshan's face.
The little boy was Li Chongqian, the ninth son of Emperor Li Tang. He had been frail and sick since he was a child. This time he went up the mountain to seek help from Chunyang Palace to treat his illness. The medical skills of Lingxu Palace were unparalleled in the world. Even many of the imperial doctors in the palace were disciples of lay disciples of Lingxu Palace.
Chu Zhe took a few steps forward and bowed with his hands in a bow.
"Chun Zhe of Chunyang Palace and the crowd respectfully welcome His Royal Highness the Prince and the Princess."
All the disciples bowed collectively.
After waiting for a long time, the eunuch finally came and shouted that he would be excused from the ceremony. The disciples who were used to being free and undisciplined were very unhappy.
The mountain breeze blew through my clothes.
"Your Highness the Prince and Your Highness the Princess are respectfully invited to enter the mountain, please."
Chu Zhe turned sideways, and the disciples cleared the way and stood on both sides. Then, the two royal children began to slowly enter the sedan. It is said that this is the majesty of the royal family and cannot be abolished, let alone be impatient. Impatient words will damage the majesty...
Finally, before the grumpy Jinxu disciples got angry, the team finally entered the mountain gate and went straight to the Yuxu Palace where the leader was.
Originally, those Jinwu guards were planning to show off their power and go on a rampage, but after seeing some Chunyang disciples practicing sword moves and sword formations in Tai Chi Square, they immediately stopped and became low-key.
Chu Zhe, the first disciple of Chunyang Sect, held a grand reception for the royal family who came up the mountain at Yuxu Palace. It would be useless for Sect Leader Li Xiangyan to receive them personally. Even if the emperor came, it would be useless. Although there were not many people in Chunyang, they had the best fighting ability in the world. First, the royal family is nothing more than an earthly emperor, so being received by Chu Zhe is already a great honor. Those eunuchs who wanted to show off their power and pricks did not dare to make a fuss, and the two parties had a pleasant conversation.
"Senior Brother Chu, Ninth Brother and I are going to be messing around on the mountain for a few days." Princess Xiangling smiled like a flower, was elegant and courteous.
"It doesn't matter, His Highness the Prince can rest in peace and recuperate. Don't worry, the sect has arranged a place for you two. If you have any needs, just ask."
"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother Chu, but... Chong Qian and I want to live in Qingxu Palace."
After hearing the princess's request, Chu Zhe didn't make too many expressions and nodded in agreement.
"That's fine. Qingxu Palace is quiet and suitable for recuperation, but only two attendants can be left to take care of you. The rest cannot stay in Huashan."
"this……"
Chu Zhe's request put the princess in a difficult position. Li Chongqian may have been drowsy due to illness, but the person in charge was Princess Xiangling.
The most important thing that makes the royal family unique is its particularity. For example, the largest palace requires the most people to serve, and there are always majestic ceremonial guards. Without the group of guards and palace maids and eunuchs, how is it different from ordinary people? What's more, if there is no one to serve, Xiang Ling can't even figure out how to dress. What can only two people do?
He originally wanted to use his royal status to force Chunyang to make concessions, but this idea was quickly thrown aside. The tactics of the secular world would not work in Chunyang Palace.
After thinking about it, I had no choice but to agree.
It is expected that with Chunyang Palace's ability, no one can go up the mountain to commit murder, but the number of waiters still needs to be fought for.
Finally, it was agreed that the prince and princess would each leave five attendants and a total of ten attendants to accompany them, and temporarily reside in Qingxu Palace.
