A middle-aged man wearing a green robe came to the Yaochi Lake, where snow never melts all year round.
He has an elegant temperament and a penetrating gaze.
Her long hair is coiled on top of her head, with a rough wooden hairpin stuck across her head.
Although his appearance is mediocre, he gives people a sense of elegance.
His face was sallow, as if he was just recovering from a serious illness.
He had been here for a long time and stood for a long time without any movement, just looking at the majestic hall in the clouds and mist with an expressionless face.
The eight Ziwei Palace disciples guarding the white jade stairs looked at each other in confusion, wondering what this guy meant.
I came here to pay a visit to Shanmen, but I still had other purposes.
They communicated with each other's eyes and guessed each other's identity, but they were still confused.
"Ji Xuanqing." The middle-aged man moved at some point.
From the other side of Yaochi Lake, he appeared quietly at the foot of the stairs. His speed made the eight disciples guarding the mountain feel like they were facing a formidable enemy.
But soon, they relaxed again.
Not for anything else, just because of those three words Ji Xuanqing.
"Kunlun Headmaster Ji Xuanqing?" a disciple boldly asked.
The middle-aged man nodded with a smile: "I'm here to pay a visit to Palace Master Xiao. Please let me know."
After half a stick of incense, Ji Xuanqing arrived at the main hall of Ziwei Palace.
Under the eaves of the main hall, Xiao Xiuyan, who was wearing a red robe, was making tea while holding the fat, snow-white cat.
Wooden table, bamboo chairs, old copper kettle.
The charcoal fire is strong and the tea is fragrant.
Ji Xuanqing's expression was complicated, his lips were half-opened, he wanted to say something, but he was silent for a while.
Xiao Xiuyan put out the fire with an iron pestle and said in a cold voice: "What, do you plan to stand there until dark before going down the mountain?"
Without waiting for Ji Xuanqing's reply, she said with a self-deprecating face: "I am blind and my heart is not blind, so don't pretend to be guilty or self-blame. Who will show you?"
"It's enough to lie to me once, there is no chance of a second time."
"I'm pretty stupid, but that was twenty years ago."
Xiao Xiuyan said mockingly: "Be sincere, and we might have a chance to continue talking. There is no need for false sympathy. I am afraid that I will drive you down the mountain in disgust."
Ji Xuanqing smiled bitterly and sat on the bamboo chair, saying seriously: "I didn't mean that."
Xiao Xiuyan picked up the copper kettle on the stove with a towel and poured two cups of tea neatly.
Ji Xuanqing took the initiative to pick up a cup and said with bright eyes: "The fragrance of tea is quiet but with a hint of coolness, the tea soup is clear and crystal clear, and the buds are as white as the first snow. Is this the snow tea from Yaochi Lake?"
Xiao Xiuyan said coldly: "It's not as good as your golden eyebrows on the top of Kunlun Mountain, so just drink it."
Ji Xuanqing said awkwardly: "Among the top ten famous teas in China, Ziwei Snow Tea ranks second, and Kunlun Golden Eyebrow ranks fourth. How can it be said that it is not so good?"
Xiao Xiuyan held the tea cup and said with a smile: "In your heart, Kunlun is the best in the world. Regardless of whether it is a person or a tea, even if it is a piece of grass, the grass in Kunlun is more beautiful than the grass outside."
"Cough." Ji Xuanqing choked and coughed softly, feeling extremely helpless.
Xiao Xiuyan stroked the big white cat in her arms, played with its soft hair, and continued: "You came to Ziwei just to verify the rumors outside. In fact, based on your understanding of me and your intelligence, you have absolutely no idea.
Reason to make this trip myself."
Ji Xuanqing said frankly: "Random suspicions are not as real as meeting you."
Xiao Xiuyan sneered and said, "Then you must be disappointed. I don't have the ability to save Kunlun from suffering."
"I might as well tell you clearly that my original plan was to join forces with the Taoist sect to steal the True Phoenix Luck from the hands of the Buddhist sect and Yunzong."
