After the ancestors of the Luo family changed the name of the sect to Baihua Valley, Baihua Villa was only used to refer to the place where the owner of the valley lived.
Huang Zelin and his party followed Mrs. Luo to Baihua Villa.
Mrs. Luo thoughtfully prepared a sedan chair for Huang Zelin and brought horses to Su Yanjun and Qin Le.
From the formation to the Baihua Villa, it is necessary to cross the hinterland of the Baihua Valley. Along the way, there is still a splendid scene of a hundred flowers blooming. Hundred Flowers Valley had many disciples, and it wasn't long before they got out of the magic circle, and they could meet the white-robed youth patrolling the road.
Qin Le rode a horse, walked side by side with Su Yanjun in the team, quietly turned sideways, and whispered, "Senior Brother Su, why do I feel something is wrong?"
Su Yanjun looked back at him. This kid usually doesn't care much, and doesn't pay much attention to anything. Now even he can see something wrong... He raised his eyebrows and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Look," Qin Le said, "Mrs. Luo went to invite Elder Huang just now, and she looked so worried, as if Lord Luo Gu's life was hanging by a thread, and there would be no hope if he didn't save him. But we arrived at the magic circle the day before yesterday, you Look at so many Hundred Flowers Valley disciples here," he raised his head and glanced around, "they should have gotten the news on the afternoon we arrived, but there was no news for the whole day yesterday, so they came to invite people this morning, delaying a day, Are they not afraid of Lord Luo Gu's accident?"
After hearing this, Su Yanjun praised: "Yes, you are right."
"Also," Qin Le got the praise and felt proud, and continued: "Let's go to Baihua Villa now, and we can get there in half an hour on a quick horse, and we've been gone for more than an hour. Elder, you should also get a faster sedan chair. The two sedan chairs in front are like outings, I don't know, I thought we were going out with Madam Luo for an outing."
It was rare for Qin Le to speak in such a mocking tone, and Su Yanjun couldn't help but be delighted. "Then tell me, what's going on?"
"I think, either Lord Luo Gu is not sick at all, or..." Qin Le didn't continue, just glanced at the surrounding Baihuagu disciples.
Su Yanjun was noncommittal, just smiled and patted his shoulder, "Let's wait and see what happens."
Mrs. Luo's team finally arrived at Baihua Villa after more than half an hour. After getting off the sedan chair and entering the hall where the guests were entertained, the maids served tea. Mrs. Luo said a few words of thanks, leaving a disciple to show Su Yanjun and Qin Le around, and then led Huang Zelin into the inner room. .
The two were taken to the garden in the backyard. The disciple was very clever and smiled and said, "The garden of Baihua Villa is full of famous flowers. Junzijian is an elegant person, so you don't need me to introduce it. You two just watch it slowly. , I can call any Hundred Flowers Valley disciple if I have something to do." After speaking, he gave a salute, left the two of them behind, and avoided the park by himself.
Su Yanjun smiled and walked in the garden with Qin Le.
The ancestors of Baihua Valley collected herbs for a living and loved flowers and plants very much. There are carved beams and painted screens in the room, and the patterns are mostly flowers and plants. This garden has also made great efforts to collect all the famous flowers and herbs from all over the world. The southwest has a warm climate, and the Hundred Flowers Valley is full of aura, and all kinds of flowers are vying to bloom like a competition.
The garden is quiet, and occasionally I meet the disciples and servants of Baihua Villa.
The disciples of the Luo family and the direct disciples of the Guzhu wear white robes and embroidered peony with gold threads. The next-level disciples wear white robes with silver threads. The men below the entourage wear blue robes, and the maids wear white robes according to their work. Dress in different colors. At first glance, it looks colorful, but in fact the division of labor is clear and hierarchical.
The two stopped beside a rockery. Qin Le touched the huge Shoushan Stone and said with a smile, "This stone is really strange. There are so many holes." There is a small cave behind the Shoushan Stone. Qin Le walked into the cave on a whim. After a few steps, he didn't see anything, so he backed out and said, "It's so cool in the cave!"
Su Yanjun laughed and dragged him forward.
Not far away, I saw a young man in white robe and gold thread standing in front of the flower bed with a smile, bowing and salute: "It is an honor to have a distinguished guest today, and welcome."
Qin Le took a closer look and couldn't help squinting his eyes. It was Luo Zifeng who had been riding through the market the day before yesterday.
That day, Luo Zifeng was punished in front of the inn for his frivolous intentions and Mu Xiyuan was punished. The surroundings were chaotic. Qin Le and Su Yanjun were both in the inn and did not show up, but they watched them all the way. At this time, seeing him deliberately talking about how hard he practiced in Zhuangzhong, how much the Valley Master paid to him, and his intention to win over and cling to him was beyond words.
At the end, Luo Zifeng said mysteriously: "This time my father is seriously ill, and he has called many famous doctors to no avail. Yesterday, Xiaomi told me that there were people in the magic circle, and then I knew how many people came, and I quickly recommended it to my father. ." As he spoke, he looked behind him, and among the few people who followed him, one of them was one of the inspection disciples they met yesterday.
Luo Zifeng proudly said to the disciples, "If I cure my father's illness this time, I will be a great achievement. In the future, I will definitely not forget the benefits of a few of them." Then he turned to Su and Qin. : "The two are also the successors of Xianmen in the future. When the time comes, the three of them will guide the world together. What a pride, hahahaha!" During the conversation, it seemed that he had already dominated the valley, formed an alliance with Moyunshan and the Qin family, and dominated the world. .
Qin Le felt disgusted in his heart. While listening to him perfunctorily, he pondered to find a reason to leave.
Su Yanjun looked at the sky and smiled, "It's getting late, let's go back to the hall and wait for Elder Huang!"
The three slowly walked back to the hall, and Luo Zifeng asked the maids to serve tea again. Just after taking a sip, there was an urgent sound of footsteps at the door, and another man in a white robe with gold threads walked in quickly.
When Luo Zifeng saw the man, he immediately stood up with a smile on his face, but his voice became cold. He snorted coldly: "Big brother still remember to come back! Daddy has been sick for several months, and no one is waiting in front of the bed. I don't know where big brother is enjoying these days!"
"Isn't this with you?" The young man said without thinking about it immediately: "I heard that you have been carrying water and medicine for the past few months, serving by your father's side, why did your father get sicker and sicker?"
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense.
Later, the young man entered the room and saw Su Yanjun and Qin Le, and his eyes turned on Qin Le, as if he remembered something but was not sure, he didn't care, and then turned his eyes to Luo Zifeng.
In this instant, Qin Le had already remembered that this person was Luo Ziqi who had a conflict with Zhu Yicheng because of fishing by the creek in Lingshan two months ago.
Luo Ziqi looked contemptuous and sneered: "Second brother doesn't have to work so hard. I came back this time and brought back the East China Sea elixir, which will definitely heal my father, just watch it!"
After he finished speaking, he hurriedly bowed to Su and Qin, and rushed into the inner hall like a whirlwind.
Luo Zifeng touched his nose and felt embarrassed. After chatting with the two for a while, he said goodbye and left.
Qin Le took a sip of tea and sighed, "This family is really complicated!"
Su Yanjun smiled and said, "You also have a brother in your family, how is your relationship?"
Speaking of Qin Yu, Qin Le shrank his neck.
Qin Yu was ten years older than him, and now he is over 30. He is the current head of the Qin family. Although they are brothers with the same father and mother, Qin Yu and Qin Le are two completely opposite people.
The early death of his father made Qin Yu grow into a strict, self-disciplined and decisive elder brother and family head, which is probably why Qin Le, an innocent and timid younger brother, could grow up carefree.
"My brother is forcing me to work hard every day. I'm especially afraid of him." Qin Le sighed, "but I know he's doing it for my own good, and wants me to learn more skills, for fear that I will suffer in front of outsiders."
After he finished speaking, he smiled again, "The Qin family is also a big family with a large population, but everyone in the family, whether male or female, will take turns to guard Linmoyuan when they become adults. People say that the Qin family is a bloody family with no warmth, but I feel that , the hearts of my family are all gathered together, unlike this Hundred Flowers Valley, everyone looks polite, but in fact intrigues, it is impossible to prevent."
While the two were talking, Huang Zelin walked out of the inner room, accompanied by Mrs. Luo and Luo Ziqi.
Huang Zelin frowned, and while walking, he instructed: "Master Luo Gu has injured his foundation this time, and needs to be properly treated and maintained. Don't think about restoring his skills first, but take care of his body now."
Luo Ziqi held two pieces of paper in his hand, which should be the prescription that Elder Huang had just prescribed. He didn't pay much attention to it, he just folded it and put it in his sleeve, rather absent-minded.
It was almost noon, and Mrs. Luo diligently kept the guests for dinner. Several people couldn't shirk, so they had to agree.
At the dinner table, Luo Ziqi was courteous and thoughtful, with the demeanor of the head of a family, picking up interesting stories from various schools and chatting with the three of them.
Finished meal. Huang Zelin said goodbye, and Luo Ziqi kept keeping him.
"No, no." Huang Zelin twisted his drooping white beard and finally came to Baihua Valley once, and of course he went to Baihua City for a walk. The old man has not been to the southwest for many years, so it is good to go and see what has changed. "
After chatting a few more words, Luo Ziqi personally sent the three to the outside of the villa, and hurriedly returned to the villa.
Qin Le stretched his back and sighed: "Oh, I had this meal, and I was talking about the entertainment." He patted his stomach, turned to Su Yanjun and said, "Senior Brother Su, we'll be in town in a while, and we'll find something else. Are you eating well? I'm still hungry!"
Seeing his pitiful appearance, Su Yanjun touched his head and nodded in agreement.
The three walked out for a while, and Qin Le suddenly turned up his sleeve pocket. After turning the left side and turning the right side, he picked up the Qiankun bag to examine it carefully.
Seeing his anxious face, Su Yanjun asked, "What's the matter, Xiaole, have you lost something?"
"Well," Qin Le's face was already sweating, "my Jasper Jue is gone."
That jade is the ancestral heritage of the Qin family. When it was passed down to Qin Yu's generation, Qin Yu wore it for a few years, and then Qin Le was born and gave it to his younger brother. Qin Le has been wearing it on his body, Su Yanjun is familiar with it after getting along for so long, and immediately helps him find it.
After half an hour, nothing was found. Qin Le discouraged: "what should I do? If I lose it, my brother won't kill me!"
Seeing that he was so anxious, Huang Zelin patted him on the back and asked, "Could it have been lost in Baihua Villa?"
"I was still there when I drank tea," Qin Le recalled. "I was bored at the time, so I played with it for a while. Later... Hey, could it be left in the garden?"
As soon as this idea came out, Qin Le immediately felt that this was the case, so he went back to find it. He stopped Su Yanjun, who wanted to go with him, and said, "Senior Brother Su, don't bother, I'll go find it myself if I lose something. It's just a matter of asking people. I'll do it alone if I walk around the garden again."
Su Yanjun thought about it too. Although Jasper Jue is a family heirloom of the Qin family, it is not precious. If it was really lost in Baihua Villa, everyone in the Immortal Sect wouldn't be ignorant of this small piece of accessories. So he urged: "I will walk slowly with the elders. If you find us, hurry up. If you can't find us, go to the Huichun Hall in Hundred Flowers City."
"Okay!" Qin Le agreed and ran back.
Approaching the villa, Qin Le slowly stopped when he saw the white robes of the Baihuagu disciples in front of the gate.
Thinking of Luo Zifeng and Luo Ziqi he saw just now, he frowned in annoyance. Going in now, I don't know what they think or say, and it's annoying to communicate with them.
Qin Le turned his head, roughly recalled the orientation of the garden, turned the direction quietly, and walked around the front house. There is a tall sycamore tree there, the trunk is in the courtyard, and half of the branches are indeed sticking out of the courtyard wall. Qin Le jumped up the tree branch lightly.
Under the tree is the garden. It is afternoon, and the garden is quiet and there is no one.
Qin Le quietly slid down the tree trunk, swept along the road he had just walked, and came to the huge Taihu stone.
I remember just now, he went for a walk in the rockery cave behind the big stone.
Qin Le walked into the cave again. Near the entrance of the cave, Jasper Jue lay quietly on the soil. The dark green jade was almost invisible under the shadow of Taihu Lake.
Qin Le picked up Yu Jue with a smile, and was about to leave the cave, when a man and a woman spoke from outside the cave.

Sorry, I wanted to write about the protagonist's appearance, but I didn't expect the number of words to exceed too many. I will sprinkle sugar in the next chapter.
