There is a servant of the villa leading the way in front, and Ye Qingxuan is pushing Jiang Shuihan behind, and there are two masters of the Great River League. They point Yanlan along the way, very relaxed and freehand.
The two masters of the Great River League who accompanied him were both experienced characters in the world, and their martial arts were also good. It was Jiang Shuihan's father Jiang Tao who personally arranged to accompany Jiang Shuihan, on the one hand to protect Jiang Shuihan's safety, On the one hand, it is also to make up for the lack of experience in Jiang Shui Han Jiang Hu...
Jiang Shuihan has always respected these two people, even on such important occasions, he always brings them by his side.
Among them, the old and thin one is named Zhongsun Liang, Ye Qingxuan followed Jiang Shuihan and also called him Uncle Liang, he is good at martial arts, good at a set of personal kung fu of acupoints and cutting off pulses, and at the same time he is a master of the rivers and lakes. The other guy, named Wu Hao, is a nominal apprentice of Jiang Tao, a young master promoted by the alliance, with a long knife behind his back, the red tassel fluttering in the wind, his appearance is dignified and majestic.
After going up to the back mountain, turn around several pavilions, and in the shadow of the forest, you will see a straight cliff far behind the courtyard. A waterfall falls from the sky, forming a lake on the mountain at the depression.
On the side of that mountain is a bigger waterfall, while on this side is a small waterfall with the same water source, it should be a landscape waterfall borrowed by mysterious water conservancy means.
After a closer look, I found that from the bottom of my feet to a distance of several thousand meters, they were all on the same huge rock, and the small lake was carved out of this rock. Ordinary people set up ponds in the front and back of the house, just dig some sand and stones on the flat ground, and choose a concave place to set up a pond. This "Ningbi Mountain Villa" has such a great handwriting that it has carved out this vertical and horizontal water channel and an artificial lake with an area of 100 mu on the rock... The shallow water only reaches ankles; the deep water can submerge more than one person. The lake water is crystal clear, and countless rare fishes chase and play in that pool.
In the middle of the lake, there is a piece of rock rising above the lake, like a fairy island on the sea, with several acres in length and width, and there are several elegant and exquisite small buildings on it. A long bridge connects the two banks, and there is also a corridor next to it. The arch bridge is for people to play on the lake, clear water, blue sky, emerald peaks, golden tiles and red buildings, colorful exotic flowers and plants... it is a blessed place where immortals live in seclusion.
Ye Jiang and the two had loved the beautiful scenery of the villa before, and now they saw this fairyland again, and they were fascinated by it. They never thought that there would be such a beautiful scenery outside Jingnan City, and the ingenious workmanship is amazing. Looking at its residence and knowing its people, it can be deduced from this that it can be seen that Yan Jingshu, the owner of this villa, is an extraordinary and refined man.
The terrain on this stone lake bends like half a moon, and the rockery waterfall splashes down like a landscape painting. There are exotic flowers and plants in the houses, the waves of flowers are turning gently, surrounded by several corridors at the edge, simple and elegant, winding and winding, connected with the secluded paths, making people think that if you can walk on it, you must linger and forget to return. fly.
When everyone walks on the long bridge, it is like walking into a beautiful picture. The wind blows the clear water, the forests and trees compete for beauty, the pavilions on the stone platform and the lake and mountains complement each other, and the small bridge and flowing water are hidden among the green branches and leaves. The blue waves are rippling and colorful. After passing through a winding path of emerald green bamboos and two shelters from the rain, they stopped in the open space in front of a building in the forest. There were already four carriages parked there, obviously they were not the only visitors.
Ye Qingxuan and the others came to the front of the building following the guidance of the servants, and a handsome maidservant appeared from the building, and saluted several people: "The banquet has begun, and the master has not arrived yet, but the other distinguished guests have been waiting for a long time. I also invite all of you to join the banquet with the maidservants..."
Zhong Sunliang, who was accompanying him, was a smart person, and hurriedly handed over a piece of silver, which seemed to be at least a dozen taels, and said with a smile: "This little girl, please stop and ask, we have been traveling all the way, and we don't know who is at the same table." Who are your distinguished guests?"
The little maid hurriedly refused: "The villa has its own rules, and the slaves dare not accept this silver tael. But the slaves do know a few distinguished guests at the banquet..."
"I also ask the girl to give me some advice, so that I won't lose my manners when I wait in..."
"Well. Apart from the gentlemen, there are also people from all over the world who are the guests of honor at this banquet. One is Chai Zuchun, the head of the Silver Deer Gate in Shuangtang Mountain, the other is the four immortals from the Xianlong Cave in Yuntai Mountain, and the third is Mo Mo, a madman from the barren mountain. Ye Li and his friends, the fourth group is a group of barbarians, the specific origins are beyond the knowledge of slaves..."
After the pretty servant girl finished speaking, she bowed gracefully and led the way.
Ye Qingxuan heard that there were Mo Yeli and others in the banquet, so he couldn't help but chuckled and said, "I never expected to meet old acquaintances here..."
Ye Qingxuan naturally answered Jiang Shuihan's curiosity one by one.
On the other side, Zhong Sunliang quickly turned around after inquiring about Ye Qingxuan, knowing that Ye Qingxuan's identity was different, so he didn't avoid suspicion, and said directly: "Return to the young master, the people attending the meeting, except for the idle Mo Yeli and the barbarian In addition, the other two groups of people are all high-flyers in the green forest, and they have done a lot of things like robbing houses..." Then he hesitated for a while, and then paused.
Jiang Shuihan showed a strange look on his face, and asked, "Uncle Liang has doubts, so why not speak up."
Zhong Sunliang quickly responded, and replied: "I don't know why Chai Zuchun came here, but the people from Xianlong Cave in Yuntai Mountain are probably here for the silver fox..."
Ye Qingxuan and Jiang Shuihan looked at each other suddenly, surprised, and asked why.
Zhong Sunliang said embarrassingly: "There is no basis, it's just inferred... Before the brothers tracked the silver fox to the vicinity of Yuntai Mountain, they lost his track, and several brothers who followed closely disappeared because of this." At that time, some brothers speculated whether there was an old acquaintance with the silver fox in Yuntai Mountain. Today, they guessed that they had intersected with the villains in the Xianlong Cave. Those few missing brothers might have met with them. The poisonous hands of... "
The faces of Ye Jiang and the two of Ye Jiang were heavy, Ye Qingxuan was silent for a moment, and said: "What Uncle Liang said is very true. This is not a guesswork. I am afraid that the facts are not far from what Uncle Liang said. It took less than a day for us to catch the silver fox , these four people were able to come together, which is enough to show that these four people were already nearby, and it is more likely that the two parties met nearby, but the four people failed to arrive as scheduled, causing the silver fox to be besieged and then captured. live."
Jiang Shuihan nodded in agreement, and looked at Ye Qingxuan silently, the vigilance in his eyes was obvious.
Although there is no good feast, the few people obviously can't hide, so why not use soldiers to block them, cover them with water and soil, and let's see the tricks.
Among the guests, Mo Yeli is an old acquaintance, so who is the barbarian? Could it be one of Xiangmu Hecha's group? Since Ban Nailie was wounded by Wei Wugui, that group of people had no intention of showing up. Could it be that they came here to pay a visit to this little-known Yan Jingshu
After being brought to the villa by Yan Jingshu, he neither introduced him to the person in charge, nor let him go back down the mountain, but just idled there, not knowing what his purpose was. In this banquet, the people invited were so messed up that people couldn't see the clue at all. Is it really just a few people who came to visit and were invited to the banquet together by Ningbi Mountain Villa? This is an extremely ordinary purpose
Filled with doubts and vigilance, everyone followed the maidservant all the way, and arrived at the banquet hall in a short while.
Entering the hall, Ye Qingxuan looked around and couldn't help being amazed.
This hall is decorated elegantly and beautifully. The hall is filled with exotic plants, which even lead the water from outside into the hall. The most attractive thing is that there is this towering tree in the middle of the hall. Right in front of the tree, several groups of low couches were placed in the center of the hall, making the participants feel as if they were in nature.
Among them, on the other side under the tree, there are four ink landscape paintings hanging on a huge screen. In the paintings, there are old men fishing in the cold lake, or ladies dressing up... The people in the paintings are lightly applied, elegant and elegant, just like In part, it sets off the talent and temperament of the owner here.
Under the screen, there is a table made of golden nanmu wood, on which there is a Yaoqin, and in front of the table is an ancient bronze incense burner from Boshan, in which fine ambergris is emitting fine smoke.
At this time, there were four groups of five groups of low couches in the hall, and each group ranged from three to six people. More than twenty people were talking there, and the scene was very lively.
When Ye Qingxuan and others walked into the hall, everyone's eyes turned immediately, and the originally lively atmosphere in the hall became strangely deserted.
Ye Qingxuan led the way into the hall, and before he had time to identify the group of people as villains from Xianlong Cave, he was immediately blocked by two groups of people coming over.
Of course, one of the group was Mo Yeli who had met once before, and beside him were three young men, two men and one woman, and among them was Ao Ziqing from the Sword Gate in the Sky, while the other man and woman came from I haven't seen them before, but they look similar, they seem to be a pair of brother and sister.
These four people greeted them happily, which was expected, but the other group of people also greeted them with kind smiles, which made Ye Qingxuan and others puzzled. Because this group of people are obviously barbarians, with brown-red skin, tangled muscles on the outside, and strange patterns painted on them, but these patterns look smaller, somewhat similar to tattoos of later generations, only on the cheeks or It's because of some decoration on the small area of the body. Unlike the barbarians I saw before, the whole body is covered with patterns, and almost covers the entire face. These barbarians... er, it seems, they are more civilized.
Moreover, although the two groups of people sat on both sides, they seemed to be quite familiar with each other.
The barren mountain fanatic had an ecstatic smile on his face, and shouted loudly: "Haha, brother Zhang, let's meet again... In just a few days, I heard that my brother used his unique skills and captured the famous killer Yinhu in the world. That coquettish old man wanted to tear him apart for a long time. Brother Zhang's actions today are really gratifying and kind... Today I will pay a visit to Master Yan Zhuang. It is rare to meet my brother here. You can't hide from him I have to do three bowls with me, otherwise I will give up, hahaha... "
