In the peach blossom garden, a gust of wind blew, and the peach blossoms "squeaked", and the peach trees dropped their petals one after another. The round-faced girl continued to help the girl with braided braids push the swing, and the girl with long ponytail continued to pick peach blossoms with a smile. Their clear laughter was like silver bells.
Zhu Shun, Xu Shanchao, and Su Chengjie hid behind the boulder and secretly looked at the three girls. Zhu Shun touched his beard and murmured:
"The girl opposite, look here, look here, look here."
The voice was a little loud, and then Zhu Shun quickly covered his mouth, his face turning red.
The girl with the long ponytail stopped what she was doing and seemed to have heard Zhu Shun's voice. The girl squinted her eyes and looked around and shouted:
"who?"
Zhu Shun looked at Xu Shanchao and Su Chengjie, and then they looked at each other.
Xu Shanchao murmured:
"Zhu Shun, we have been discovered."
Su Chengjie murmured:
"Lao Zhu, why don't you imitate the meowing of a cat and fool me, that's what villains do."
Xu Shanchao said:
"Let's meow and meow together."
Zhu Shun looked at Xu Shanchao and murmured:
"What are they all about!"
Zhu Shun scratched his head vigorously and murmured:
"Chengjie, there is a discrepancy between the book and the reality. Let's call like a goose. Won't they realize it?"
Su Chengjie held his chin in his hands and murmured:
"It makes sense, then let's just show it off. At worst, we can explain it directly. We'll just say that we got here by accident."
Zhu Shun murmured:
"It's true that we stumbled in by mistake, but we did sneak here secretly to spy on the girl."
Su Chengjie murmured:
"Never mind this, let's just say we came in by mistake and we'll take the blame."
Not far away, the round-faced girl looked at the girl with long ponytail and asked doubtfully:
"Sister Xiaoqian, what's wrong?"
The girl with the long ponytail said:
"I always feel like someone is spying on us."
The girl with braids looked at the girl with ponytail and said:
"It's probably because you're too tired. It's been quite tiring these past two days to celebrate the old lady's eightieth birthday. No one knows about our Peach Blossom Temple, so how can outsiders come here?"
The round-faced girl looked depressed, stretched out her right hand, took a petal, and said:
"What is the outside world like? We are like birds in a cage. We really don't know what the outside world is like."
The girl with long ponytail scratched her head and muttered:
"Isn't it really a hallucination?"
Behind the boulder, Zhu Shun, Xu Shanchao and Su Chengjie leaned against the boulder, looking relieved.
Zhu Shun picked up the gourd of wine from his waist and took a sip of wine to calm down his shock. Unexpectedly, Zhu Shun drank too quickly and choked. Seeing this, Xu Shanchao and Su Chengjie blushed and quickly covered Zhu Shun's mouth. Unexpectedly, he still coughed. Made a sound.
The three girls not far away were stunned for a moment, and they all looked at the boulder. Then they were startled. The round-faced girl looked a little frightened and shouted:
"Who is it?"
At this moment, there were a lot of falling flowers. I saw the girl with the long ponytail squinting her eyes, making her hands into palms, and tapping her toes, and she was attacking the boulder. At this time, the surrounding peach petals seemed to be spiritual, surrounding the girl with the long ponytail. Zhu Shun saw He stood up quickly and took the palm with both hands. Zhu Shun and the girl with long ponytail held hands against each other. After changing hands, the surroundings exploded instantly.
In the peach blossom forest, petals suddenly flew like a rain of peach blossoms;
Both Zhu Shun and the girl were blown away. Zhu Shun was instantly knocked back several feet, and his back hit a peach tree. The peach tree trembled and its petals fell. The girl tapped her toes on the ground, stabilized her body and faced Zhu Shun again. Shun came; Zhu Shunqiang took a breath and said helplessly:
"Girl, we just got here by accident!"
The girl with the ponytail stared at Zhu Shun and said:
"You bumped into us by accident. How could it be such a coincidence?"
The girl with long ponytail faced Zhu Shun with her palm and said:
"Take the move!"
When Zhu Shun saw the girl approaching, he waved his palms. The wind was strong around him. Zhu Shun's steps were light and he stretched out his right palm. The girl continued to run towards her and changed her palms again. Zhu Shun took a few steps back and pulled away, only to see Zhu Shun. Shun raised his hands slightly, and instantly turned his palms downward. There was a sudden shock, peach blossoms were flying around him, and a strong air flow instantly knocked the girl back.
The girl was knocked back, her toes pointed to the ground, and after a moment she stabilized her figure. The girl with the long ponytail looked at Zhu Shun and asked:
"What move is this? Why is it so similar to my 'Flower Palm'?"
Zhu Shun scratched his head, looked at the girl and replied:
"I haven't given a name yet for the martial arts I figured out blindly. Maybe it should be called 'Wind Demon Palm'."
Zhu Shun seemed to have thought of something again, and said quickly:
"Girl, we really stumbled in here by mistake."
The girl with the long ponytail laughed, the ends of her narrow eyes were slightly raised, she looked at Zhu Shunmian with a smile and whispered:
"Our fight is not over yet, let's discuss this issue later!"
The girl smiled and said:
"I had a fight with you just now, and you made me lose all face. I have to get back on my feet, right?"
Zhu Shun's hair stood on end, and he quickly waved his hand and said:
"No, girl, why don't I just admit defeat?"
At this moment, I saw the girl's internal energy pouring down like a flood;
Su Chengjie saw Zhu Shun in such a mess and said:
"I'll go, this girl's internal strength is so strong, Lao Zhu will suffer a big loss."
Xu Shanchao turned his head and looked at the two girls over there. The round-faced girl quickly opened her hands to protect the braided girl. She looked at Xu Shanchao with a horrified face and said:
"Brother, I won't let you hurt sister Menglan!"
Xu Shanchao scratched his head and said:
"We're not bad people."
The girl with braided braids blinked her peach blossom eyes and looked at Xu Shanchao. Xu Shanchao and the girl with braided braids looked at each other. Xu Shanchao blushed and said:
"Girl, you are so beautiful."
The girl with braids blushed, lowered her head, and said shyly:
"Thank you, sir."
The round-faced girl blushed when she saw this, and looked at Xu Shanchao and said:
"My sister Menglan, of course she is beautiful. If you don't look at your little eyes, you can't even think of lying to my sister with your sweet words."
Su Chengjie's eyes widened, he looked at Zhu Shun and shouted:
"Lao Zhu is in danger!"
The girl came to Zhu Shun in an instant and stared at Zhu Shun with a smile. Zhu Shun could have changed his palms, but Zhu Shun did not fight back and was slapped on the shoulder by the girl. The surrounding area was instantly shocked by a powerful internal force, and there were colorful flowers falling all around. The girl with the ponytail was shocked and said:
"Why don't you hide!"
Zhu Shun actually didn't fight back, he just fell straight to the ground and fainted instantly.
The girl with the long ponytail looked at Zhu Shun who had fainted, and was stunned for a moment. She quickly squatted down and tried Zhu Shun's breathing with her hands. The girl with the long ponytail was relieved and said:
"You're still angry. You scared me to death. You blame me. You're so cruel."
Xu Shanchao immediately turned his head and looked at Zhu Shun who had fainted. He quickly trotted beside Zhu Shun, followed by Su Chengjie. Xu Shanchao wiped Zhu Shun's wrist with his hand and murmured:
"The pulse is disordered, but it's okay, no vital parts were injured."
Xu Shanchao quickly took out a red pill from his package, opened Zhu Shun's mouth with his hand, and let Zhu Shun take it.
Xu Shanchao touched the sweat on his forehead, looked at the girl with long ponytail, and said:
"Girl, you are too cruel!"
The girl with the long ponytail lowered her head and said:
"Wasn't he very good at hitting just now? He could obviously exchange palms with me, but why didn't he hide?"
Su Chengjie pressed his nose and looked at the girl with long ponytail and said:
"Lao Zhu probably doesn't want to hurt you. A good man doesn't fight with women."
The girl with braided braids kicked the girl with long ponytail and said, "Xiaoqian! It's not good to attack without asking clearly."
The girl with the long ponytail lowered her head and said nothing.
The girl with braids looked at the two of them and asked:
"How did you find this place by accident?"
The round-faced girl put her hands on her hips and said:
"Yeah, how did you find this place?"
Su Chengjie said:
"Girl, a few of us were originally assisting the Yamen in handling cases, but for some reason we got lost in the mountains, and then we came here by mistake."
The round-faced girl looked at Su Chengjie and asked:
"The world outside? Isn't the world only so big?"
All three girls looked very confused.
Su Chengjie and Xu Shanchao looked at each other and fell into deep thought after hearing what the girl said. They were confused. Could it be that this place is like a cage, and the people in Taohua Temple are like birds in a cage?
The braided girl quickly said:
"I heard that the old people in the village often talk about the places outside, but they always say that they are not as comfortable as here. Maybe the older generation has seen the outside world, but in our Taohua Temple, only the older generation often talks about it. The younger generation , including the three of us, no one knows what it’s like outside?”
The round-faced girl looked at Su Chengjie and asked:
"Brother, can you tell us about the outside world?"
Su Chengjie chanted:
“The rivers, lakes and seas are rushing day and night!
The five mountains and rivers stand towering!
The Great Wall stretches endlessly!
The majestic Forbidden City, dignified and majestic! "
Xu Shanchao said: "The great rivers and mountains outside are very beautiful."
The three girls listened very carefully. The round-faced girl was full of longing for the outside world. Then the round-faced girl slowly walked to Su Chengjie, looked at Su Chengjie with admiration, and said:
"My name is Liu Xinglin, brother, your literary talent is very good!"
Su Chengjie scratched his face and replied:
"My surname is Su and my name is Chengjie. Thank you for the compliment, girl."
At this time, Su Chengjie thought to himself:
"You really need to read more books. Isn't it fun to read in front of a girl like this?"
Xu Shanchao lowered his head and clasped his fists, and said:
"Girls, please do me a favor and let my brother recover here for a few days. We will leave after he recovers."
The girl with braids said:
"Of course, this is what should be done. We made the mistake first."
Xu Shanchao asked:
"My surname is Xu and my given name is Shanchao. What's your name, girl?"
The girl with braids replied:
"My name is Chen Menglan, and her name is Li Xiaoqian." The girl with braids pointed at the girl with long ponytail.
The girl with long ponytail looked at Xu Shanchao and said:
"My name is Li Xiaoqian. I'm really sorry. Why don't you carry him to my house!"
The girl with the long ponytail said again:
"When he wakes up, I will apologize to him properly."
Xu Shanchao carried the fainted Zhu Shun on his back and said:
"Thank you, Miss Li. Let's go first."
The three girls walked in the front, Xu Shanchao carried Zhu Shun on his back, and Su Chengjie followed closely behind.
Although the peach blossoms are beautiful, the peach groves are even more romantic and charming. Walking into the peach forest, the peach blossoms are like a sea. When a gust of wind blows, pieces of peach petals will blow to the ground.
Amidst the peach blossoms, neat tile-roofed houses and old thatched houses are intertwined. Walking on the streets of Taohua'an, the people see unfamiliar faces and talk about them one after another.
"Who are they?"
"I've never seen it before!"
"Could he be an outsider?"
"A stranger came here half a month ago."
"Great, you can continue to ask what big things are happening outside now."
...........
Seeing the people bringing out fruits and vegetables to welcome their arrival,
Xu Shanchao looked at the people with Zhu Shun on his back and said with a smile: "Thank you, folks."
After a while, Xu Shanchao left the crowd and found himself in a tile-roofed house with peach blossoms falling outside the window and several peach trees in the courtyard. Xu Shanchao carried Zhu Shun to the room. There was an old dressing table and some simple furniture in front of the bed. This is Li Xiaoqian's home.
Xu Shanchao put Zhu Shun on the bed, then took out some herbs from the package, and then went to the kitchen to make a medicinal soup. The smell of the medicine was very pungent.
Li Xiaoqian said:
"Teach me how to endure it, and I'll help him endure it."
Xu Shanchao smiled and said:
"sure."
Xu Shanchao then taught Li Xiaoqian how to make decoction; Chen Menglan looked at Xu Shanchao with admiration and said:
"You are so awesome, you can do everything."
Xu Shanchao blushed and replied:
"Thank you for the compliment, girl."
Su Chengjie touched Xu Shanchao with his shoulder and said:
"Old Xu, known as the Treasure Bag, is of course very powerful. Whenever there is an emergency, Old Xu is always full of surprises and surprises."
Xu Shanchao replied:
"When you go out, think more about it and bring more. It will always be useful. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst."
Su Chengjie said:
"Lao Xu is very considerate."
The round-faced girl named Liu Xinglin looked very shocked. She looked at Xu Shanchao and said:
"I also want to learn from Brother Xu and be more thoughtful."
Chen Menglan said:
"Let me find a place for you two to live. My brother has a vacant room. I'll tell her that you can make do with it."
Xu Shanchao replied:
"sure."
Li Xiaoqian said:
"Sister Menglan, you take them first and I will take care of him."
Xu Shanchao and Su Chengjie clasped their fists, and Su Chengjie said, "Thank you, girl."
Then Su Chengjie and Xu Shanchao followed Li Menglan and Liu Xinglin out of the room.
In the room, Li Xiaoqian sat in front of the bed, blew on the medicinal soup, then picked up a spoon and helped take care of Zhu Shun who had fainted.
