The furnishings inside are quite simple, with most of them being trinkets from the human world.
"Huh?" Su Zhen took down a porcelain doll from the wooden shelf near the door, "Since when did Yue Niang like these?"
In addition to porcelain dolls, the shelves were filled with glass bottles with various colored lights shining inside.
Su Zhen wanted to use clairvoyance, but her spiritual consciousness couldn't penetrate the glass bottle.
"Miss Shishi, what is this?"
"Oh, that, those are all brought by Yue Niang."
"Really?"
Su Zhen was very confused, so she stretched out her finger to poke it, but a substantial icy air suddenly wrapped around her finger.
Su Zhen was startled when her fingers stung, and she quickly retracted her hand.
"What is this!"
"I don't know either, but Mr. Su, you'd better not touch it. Yueniang said that the more obvious something is, the more dangerous it is."
"..."
Su Zhen suddenly looked at her with a strange expression, "Miss Shishi, it seems that you and Yueniang are very close to each other."
"It's not a big deal to be friends. After all, we'll see each other again in the future."
"Teacher, you are here."
While the two were talking, the door above them opened.
I saw a woman with an exquisite figure slowly walking out of the door...
Su Zhen looked at that familiar face, her expression changed from shock to astonishment, but there was no joy.
"How could it be you?!"
...
In the bamboo pavilion, three men with different styles were sitting on the stilts. They looked leisurely and peaceful on the surface, but there were turbulent waves in their eyes.
"Yixuan, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect to meet you here." Xiao Chuhong was the first to speak.
"Mr. Xiao, the Valley Master has just given his name. He is not the one you and Mr. Su said." He Ting said.
"Ha! Whether it is yes or no depends entirely on your valley master's mind. Or maybe he is timid in being close to old friends."
Xiao Chuhong raised his eyebrows and glanced sideways at Tan Zhi. The latter calmly picked up the flask and filled up the tea in Heting's and Xiao Chuhong's cups.
"The wind and moon are cold, and it is difficult to understand the inner demons. Even if an old friend comes, there is no need to be cowardly."
Tan Zhi's glazed eyes were shimmering with peacock blue, slightly warm and slightly cool.
"If you're not timid, why don't you dare to admit your identity in front of her?"
"How can we recognize each other if we have never met?"
"Master Xiao, the master of this valley will be getting married in three days. At that time, you can come and watch the ceremony."
"There are no three matchmakers or six betrothals, no parents' orders, no matchmaker's words. If the name is not right and the words are not smooth, how can this marriage be achieved?"
After Xiao Chuhong finished speaking, he took out a red bell from his wide cuff and placed it on the kang table. Its color was darker, its texture was more delicate, and its surface was emitting a shimmer.
"Master Qin Valley, Xiao said before entering the valley that he would give you a congratulatory gift, so this is it."
Tan Zhi's pupils shrank, while He Ting watched their expressions change.
But when I think about his family's valley owner being so accommodating to these outsiders, I feel extremely strange.
I remember that in the past, although the owner of his family was easy-going, he always treated others with a sense of distance.
"Valley Master, there are a few more strangers in the valley today. I heard Mr. Su Zhen say that two of them are his friends, but the other two girls don't look like simple masters. And she kept saying
Her grandfather was some kind of high priest, and I don’t know who he was outside of."
Xiao Chuhong took a sip of tea and said, "It's not the high priest, but the chief toast."
"Toast?"
"Well, in the human world, her grandfather is a famous chieftain, and the two girls are both from the Kayi tribe."
He Ting thought about it for a while and then said, "The Kayi tribe? I've never heard of it."
"He Ting, where are they now?"
"Back to the Valley Master, they fell from the sky. On the surface, they were not injured. Only one boy was hit. The younger junior sister asked someone to take them to Senior Brother Jiang Xing's residence. With Senior Brother Jiang Xing here, they will definitely be fine.
.”
"Fell from the sky but not injured?"
Tan Zhi looked at Xiao Chuhong and saw that his face was expressionless. He thought it was Su Zhen who took action.
"Master Xiao, you better take this bell back."
Tan Zhi pushed the dark red bell back in front of Xiao Chuhong.
"Receive? How can I take back what I have given away? What's more, I have other agendas."
"Ha! Then Mr. Xiao might as well tell you what you want?"
"Cassia pestle." Xiao Chuhong said casually with a calm expression. He raised his hand to drink tea and covered the deep meaning in his eyes with his long and wide sleeves.
"Cassia Pestle?! You mean the ancient artifact Cassia Pestle?"
"That's right."
Tan Zhi frowned, "I'm afraid Mr. Xiao has found the wrong place. There is no artifact in Tan Yu Valley."
"Yes or not, it all depends on what Master Qin Gu thinks. After all, you can't force it, and sweet dreams will eventually wake up. Master Qin has a good rest. After all, he is about to get married. If he is overworked and looks bad,
Madam never likes it either."
After that, Xiao Chuhong stood up, slowly arranged his clothes, and walked out.
Tan Zhi did not say anything to stop him, but after he left, his eyes returned to their usual indifference.
Listening to the footsteps outside the door gradually disappearing, Tan Zhi slowly raised his eyes.
"He Ting, send someone to keep an eye on them. If they make any move, send someone to report it immediately!"
"Okay, senior brother, I've written it down. But...those people don't seem to know magic..."
"Watch them together and don't hurt them. After three days, let them go."
"This...that's all..."
He Ting sighed and turned to look out the window.
...
There is one of the most tranquil places in Qinshu Valley.
Jiang Xing is Tan Zhi's second junior brother. Like Heting and Shishi, he is a disciple of the previous old valley master of Tan Yu Valley.
It is said that he was a very good drinker and was always accompanied by wine, but he was better than his superb medical skills.
When Su Zhen came to Jiangxingyuan, she heard noisy sounds coming from inside.
Immediately, I saw a man in a green shirt walking quickly out of it, with a bad look on his face.
"Lamb? Why are you so angry? What happened inside?"
Su Zhen looked carefully and saw that Yang Huanzhi's sleeves were scratched and there were several scratches on the back of his hands.
"What's going on? You guys are fighting?! Where is Tangyu? How is his injury? Isn't he protecting you?"
Listening to Su Zhen's series of questions, Yang Huanzhi, who was in a bad mood, finally raised his eyes and looked at her seriously.
Su Zhen was obviously still the same Su Zhen as before. Maybe he had never really known her, but he always felt that she was different from before, but he couldn't tell what the difference was.
It seems that in the past, even though she was carefree and free-spirited, her eyes would always have faint ripples when she smiled. But when I see her today, her face has not changed and her smile is still there, but the smile is not as bright as her eyes at all, or even more.
A bit melancholy and deep.
He was clearly smiling, but he couldn't hide his exhaustion and sadness.
What is she... trying her best to hide in front of them? This chapter has been completed!
