Chapter 632 Return the umbrella
Jinshanyuan.
Outside the door, Huang Zhao, the golden-winged roc, crossed his arms and looked up at the sky, yearning for freedom.
Sandalwood was lingering in the small building. King Wisdom and the two old monks from Jinshan Temple were sipping tea. Their eyes were fixed on Su Hang and they were worried, wondering whether the dragon girl really believed in her advice and was willing to survive the tribulation in the world of mortals.
"Jiao Nu has murderous intentions, is there an accident?"
There was silence in the house for a moment.
"Although the white dragon takes the form of a human, it is actually a ferocious beast with thick hair and blood. Its appearance is nothing more than a red and pink skull. No matter how beautiful it is, it cannot hide its evil nature. It is not surprising that it occasionally reveals its ferocious nature."
King Wisdom's explanation made the two old monks look at each other, but it made sense after thinking about it carefully.
If you can give an umbrella to the same boat when you first meet, it means there is a possibility to continue, let's wait and see.
"The mystery of the dragon soul cannot be explored. How to confirm that it has truly accepted its fate?"
"The dragon girl is in love and enters the world of mortals."
"Uh... how do you know that she is emotional?"
"this……"
The three of them looked embarrassed. The ones here who had been educated since childhood were as afraid of women as snakes and scorpions. They didn't know what expressions of affection were, so they had to find the verification from classics and legends.
The young novice enters.
Skillfully boil water to brew a pot of tea before the rain, skillfully wash cups and pour tea.
The color of West Lake Longjing tea is like jade, the tea soup of Yuqian tea is slightly bitter, the fragrance is long, light and distant, fragrant and clear, the light tea fragrance brings a little comfort...
"How long will it take to bring the white dragon into my teaching? If I guess correctly, the dragon scale has appeared. We can't delay here for too long."
The two old monks wanted to know King Wisdom's plan, and he was responsible for taking full charge of the matter.
The King of Wisdom was not in a hurry to answer and enjoyed the tea with satisfaction.
Half a moment.
"It takes some time to transform the white dragon.
First get married, and then have children, and then drag Xu Xian into our sect. Once the white dragon enters this mortal world, there will be no way out. If the evildoer disturbs the peace of the world and his luck is greatly reduced, he can be directly captured and suppressed."
One of the old monks paused, put down his tea cup and sighed...
"Alas... we shouldn't be like this. Although the dragon girl is a monster, she has never threatened the people of the world. All living beings are also fate. We should help the world with compassion."
Hearing this, King Wisdom and the other man were also helpless. The world was like a river and lake, and they couldn't help themselves. How could they act according to their own intentions?
…
The sky is cloudy and foggy.
Thick fog enveloped Suzhou and Hangzhou, making it difficult to see very far. The fog at this time was not the kind of toxic haze that was full of particles, but a real weather phenomenon caused by fog. After breathing in, your mouth and nose will feel moist, even if you inhale too much.
If you have a cough, the whole village will not go to your house to eat and eat melon seeds.
Xu Xian and Mr. Du from Baiyao Hall said hello and went out, holding oil-paper umbrellas in their arms and walking in a hurry.
He knew where Osmanthus Alley was but had never heard of Nanyu Hut. The name sounded weird. No matter what, he just wanted to find the girl in white.
The moisture is too heavy and the hair will look black even more when it gets wet.
After passing a few bends along the river in the water town, you can see Osmanthus Alley in the distance.
The breeze blows and the fragrance of osmanthus fills the boat.
There are many sweet-scented osmanthus trees in Osmanthus Alley, and the flowers are in bloom and fragrant at night. Hence the name of Little Osmanthus Alley, which attracts countless people to visit. Unfortunately, it is not in season and cannot appreciate the taste.
Not far along the bluestone road by the water, I looked around for that little hut.
It happened that an old man passed by and Xu Xian asked for directions.
"This old man, may I ask where the Nanyu hut in Osmanthus Alley is?"
The old man was stunned.
"What husband?"
"Excuse me, my husband, do you know where Nanyu's cabin is? Please let me know~"
Xu Xian understood that the old man might not have good hearing, so he shouted loudly in his ear. He wondered how he could understand it now, but he didn't expect that asking for directions would be so laborious.
"You want to scare me to death? How can you be so irritable at such a young and handsome age?"
"..."
Xu Xian was speechless.
"By the way, what did the young man say just now?"
Okay, still can't hear it.
Xu Xian hugged the umbrella and turned around to leave, not daring to stay any longer. He thought that when he returned to Baiyao Hall, he could help him prepare some prescriptions to treat his ear disease, which would be a way of sparing the people from nearby Suzhou and Hangzhou.
While walking, I looked at the plaques of various houses, but I didn't see any huts. It was very lively with passers-by and vendors shouting and selling.
Suddenly, I saw a familiar girl in white from a distance...
The shop in the hut was open for business. I held a small bamboo cage and sat on the threshold to eat while looking at the street. The threshold was very high, so I didn’t have to carry a small horse to sit upright. Although the cage was small, it was slightly bigger than Qiao Lian. I held it carefully and held it with bamboo.
Pick up the soup dumpling with chopsticks, blow on it and take a bite.
Take a small sip of the cherry.
"Huh~ so hot~"
Although the mouth can spit out the flaming dragon's breath and is not afraid of being burned, I subconsciously felt that the soup was too hot, so I took a few loud sips and drank the soup in the bun.
After eating the last few bites of the steamed bun, the whole dumpling was completely translucent.
Putting down the chopsticks, she fanned herself with two little hands and exhaled. Her pretty white face turned pink with redness from the heat, and a few stray hairs were lightly fanned.
When he picked up the basket and was about to continue eating, he saw Xu Xian standing in front of the door, neither walking nor moving. He lowered his head and saw that there were still a lot of soup dumplings in the basket. He picked up one with chopsticks and handed it forward, which meant that he was inviting the other person to eat.
Xu Xian was embarrassed and had no nerve to use the chopsticks that the girl had used, so he had to wave his hand and refuse the buns.
"I'm Xu Xian in Shijing Lane. Thank you for borrowing the umbrella. I came here to return it~"
Bai Yujun almost didn't get choked to death, and he was really called Xu Xian...
"Just leave the umbrella there."
"Oh, okay~"
Then, nothing happened anymore. Moubai continued to sit on the doorstep and hugged the steamer to eat steamed buns. He took a small bite and slowly sucked up the soup and ate it in two mouthfuls. He lowered his head and ignored Xu Xian, who was standing in front of the shop in embarrassment.
Xu Xian didn't want to stay too long and could only turn around to leave, feeling empty in his heart.
Moubai blinked and seemed to see three guys staring at him. In order to make them think that he had been tricked in his dreams in recent years, he had to call them out.
"Master Xu~"
"Uh...what's the matter, girl?"
Just when Moubai called Xu Xian to stop, the three old monks on the mountain outside the city breathed a sigh of relief.
"My surname is Bai and my name is Yujun. I live in this small house and do some business to survive. Don't you want to eat the buns? They are really delicious."
"Thank you Miss Bai for your kindness. I'm an apprentice at Xiabai Medicine Hall. It's not very far from here. May I ask what the girl's shop sells?" Xu Xian was curious, as the girl's family didn't have many shops.
"They sell umbrellas and paintings. Come into the store and have a look."
Xu Xian entered the shop in a daze, and was immediately attracted by the white foggy West Lake rain picture on the wall, the weeping willows of Huboqing Lake and the looming black mountains in the distance. It was slightly pale, but it had an indescribable ethereal meaning in it, even though Xu Xian was not very familiar with it.
Even though I know painting, I think this is a good piece of work.
"Who painted this painting? It's really a masterpiece!"
"This one? I painted it. It's a little expensive and sells for ten taels of gold."
A certain white god is here.
"Ten...ten taels of gold?"
"What? Isn't this painting worth ten taels of gold? Look at this painting technique and carefully feel the concept and spirit contained in this painting. Ten taels of gold is already very cheap." Bai Yujun rambled, not knowing.
Even with the edge, the painting is still a good painting.
Xu Xian felt that a painting worth ten taels of gold was scary, but it was hard to refute.
I just feel that there is something wrong with this painting, but I can’t put it clearly. It’s an instinctive and subconscious feeling.
