What was Xiao Ling's first gratitude when he first set foot on Qiu Shu Main Island? It must be said that it was doubt, a deep doubt.
"Is this really the legendary Peach Blossom Island?" This was the doubt deep in her heart. In the mountains and plains, there are only peach blossoms. After passing a peach blossom forest, there is a peach blossom mountain, and then a peach blossom stream.
…
"Young Master, please come down." She got off the boat and went ashore. Everyone on the boat did not follow, including Lingque and the others beside her, who were also arranged separately. Although she is the young master here, she is considered the master.
, but now, she doesn't have any power here.
And this subordinate is a man who looks like a scholar in his thirties. Although he calls himself a subordinate and has a very hands-on attitude, his whole person gives people a casual and natural feeling. He is neither condescending nor groveling.
Xiao Ling didn't care who he was, nor did she ask his name. Anyway, they called her Young Master. Anyone who was qualified to introduce himself to her would introduce himself. Just like the thirteenth uncle before.
After walking seventeen or eight times in the peach blossom forest and making dozens of turns, we finally arrived at our destination. The destination was a small palace with the same main hall, four front and back halls.
"The main hall is where the head of the family lives, the left hall is the study, the right hall is the practice room, the front hall is the pharmacy, and the back hall is the warehouse. The main island does not admit guests, everyone here, even slaves
, they must all be chosen from thousands of people and absolutely trustworthy. The young master can rest assured to use them..."
After entering the main hall, he took a cursory look at the main hall before the man spoke again: "Young master, please go to the corridor and ring the golden bell to summon all the elders to come and see you."
When Xiao Ling first came in, she saw the golden bells. There were thirteen of them, hanging in rows under the corridor, with a gold silk hanging hanging from below. She had wondered before if it was decoration, but she didn't expect that it was actually meant to be.
Walk over and follow what the subordinate said. From left to right, there are thirteen golden bells, each of which is pulled up nine times.
Dang, clang, clang... the clear and melodious sound of the bell floats far away, long and distant. There are thirteen golden bells, and the sound of each bell is so slightly different, mixed together, one sound is louder than the other, and one sound is brighter than the other.
, like ocean waves, magnificent, boundless, and never-ending.
"Your Majesty Tao Yuan, I sincerely welcome the return of the young master." The subordinate looked excited from the moment he heard the sound of the bell. It wasn't until the thirteen golden bells finished ringing that he knelt down and kowtowed. This time, no more
His expression was like that of mountains and rivers before. Instead, he was truly bowing to the ground, with an expression of excitement but deep-seated surrender.
"Welcome the young master to return." Far and near, all the people she could see and couldn't see, the few people on the island were all kneeling prostrate on the ground at the same time, shouting these words at the same time. The voices were strangely consistent and loud.
superimposed together, almost suppressing the sound of the bell.
"Get up." Xiao Ling waved to Taoyuan.
Taoyuan stood up and welcomed her into the main hall again. It was the same as before, the only difference was that this time, he welcomed her onto the chair in the middle of the main hall. He also personally waited on her to sit down!!
This chair is made of thousand-year-old ironwood, half a foot long and three feet wide. It can accommodate three people sitting side by side without looking overcrowded. The back of the chair is carved with a three-winged fire phoenix, and the armrests on both sides are carved with simple auspicious clouds.
