second to none

Chapter 10

Taihe is the god who is in charge of hundreds of millions of stars in the Tianhe River. At first he sounds very powerful and majestic, but the first time I saw him, he was sitting on a stone by the Tianhe River and playing with a small windmill.

She stood looking at him from afar, not sure of his identity.

She still doesn't know exactly what Shenjun should look like, but it won't be just a casual blue silk robe with disheveled hair half lying on a rock.

The hundreds of millions of stars under his feet are shrouded in the shallow clouds and mists of the Tianhe River, shining like gold flakes sprinkled on silk.

He found her immediately, and looked at her curiously, his eyes were clear and gentle.

"Come, come here." Taihe waved at her, as if calling a strange little wild cat.

She hid farther and farther away, shrunk behind the longevity tree, only revealing two fiercely shining eyes.

Taihe smiled and ignored her, and opened his mouth to blow the colorful windmill in his hand. The thin clouds in the Milky Way rolled up and down with the rhythm of his blowing.

Suddenly, a huge fish jumped out of the Tianhe River, its color was as bright as blood, it curled beautifully in the air, and flicked its tail harshly, as if complaining that his blowing action disturbed it.

Crashing, its tail dropped a large cloud of fine golden sand, falling like rain.

Her eyes lit up again, not the fierce light of guard, but the kind of light that a craftsman sees when he sees rare and rare materials.

The star sand in the Milky Way is a material that only appears in myths and legends. She inevitably began to imagine what amazing things could be done with it.

Taihe used silk capsules to collect the star sand, thought for a while, put the silk capsules on the bluestone, but jumped off by himself, blowing the windmill away.

She watched for a long time, her eyes were staring, she was sure that there was no one around, so she quietly slipped over, snatched the silk sac and ran away.

Unexpectedly, there was a sudden laugh from behind, and she turned her head in panic, only to see Taihe, who had just left, half lying on the bluestone, looking at her with a smile.

"Be careful," he said in a very gentle voice, "don't play around in Tianhe, I can't get it back."

Tan Yin opened her eyes, and what she saw was a cloudy sky, and the sky had already dawned.

This body should be dead, but she still has dreams, why?
I'm afraid no one can answer this question.

Tan Yin got up and patted the dust. She didn't expect that she would sleep in the mountains, but she forgot to release a Linglong house. How did she fall asleep yesterday?
She flew far behind the big monk, he stopped to rest and eat, she also stopped to rest and eat, he got up and continued to fly, she also got up and continued to fly, anyway, just to prevent him from seeing her.After flying like this for four days and four nights, both of them didn't sleep at all. Afterwards, the great monk rode on the Bird of Paradise, obviously staggered, as if he was about to fall off at any time.

Last night he probably had finally reached his limit, angrily found a flat ground and landed, and built a fire, as if he was going to sleep in the open to find something to eat.

Tan Yin hid in the dark and saw him aiming at a hare, she immediately helped.Most of the things in the Qiankun bag were all kinds of equipment and tools she made. She dug out the small crossbow arrows, installed copper needles, and quietly injected anesthesia on all the rabbits that could be found on the hillside, so that he would not be caught when he caught them. It took a lot of effort.

But it seems that he is not very happy about this situation. After meeting the tenth rabbit with anesthesia, he gave up, picked some wild fruits and ate them raw, and fell asleep after eating, without even looking at her. .

Tan Yin had no choice but to find a flat ground not too far away from him, and sat on the ground in a daze.

The men she met in her life were really few. When she was a human being, the Ji family itself was thin. When she was a little sensible, only her and her old father were left to die.Later... I met Taihe and several other gods.

Taihe has an easy-going personality, and the other gods who don't have much contact with him are also handsome. None of them are as cunning and difficult as the big monk. They are suspicious and vigilant. They run away immediately when they encounter people who cannot be solved.

At night, there was a cool breeze in the mountains and forests, mixed with the sound of various unknown insects. Tan Yin bowed her head and counted the ants on the ground. These fragile little creatures are busy moving, and it must be raining tomorrow.Well, tomorrow, tomorrow, where will the big monk, the fox, go wandering?

Thinking about it, she actually felt sleepy. She didn't know if it was because the mountain wind was blowing too comfortably, or because the fragrance brought by the wind was so pleasant.

aroma……?
Tan Yin turned her head, only to see that the big monk who was supposed to be asleep got up again. He was holding a small copper incense burner in his hand, adding incense to it. I don't know what those spices are made of. The smoke was extremely sweet and gentle, and the mountain wind brought the aroma to her. Although it had faded a lot, the long distance made her even more ecstatic.

I heard that the fox family is good at making spices. Although she only worked as a maid for the big monk for a few days, she is very clear that they usually carry incense burners with them.He traveled for four days and nights and was full of dust and dust. It was only normal to smoke incense at this time.

Tan Yin yawned, completely unable to resist the envelopment of the scent, so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, and fell asleep without even a trace of vigilance.

...So, in fact, she was still tricked by that cunning fox.

Youhu family are immortals, how can immortals be hungry and tired?Even if there was, she shouldn't be unable to hold on in just four days. She was inexperienced and he ran away again.

Tan Yin walked to the flat land where the big monk slept in the open last night. The fire he raised had already been extinguished, and people went to put it out. He must have run away last night when she just fell asleep.

It's really difficult, Tan Yin shook her head secretly.

There were some extremely fine black powder scattered on the ground, she bent down to pick it up, put it in front of her nose and sniffed it—it was the smell of the spice yesterday.

The weather is not good at this time, it must rain soon, and while the smell is still strong, she has to find the trace of the big monk as soon as possible.

Tan Yin took out a palm-sized box from the Qiankun bag, opened the lid, and found an extremely delicate cage inside, and inside the cage was an emerald green bird that was smaller than a little finger.She fed it the finely ground spice grains one by one slowly, and the little bird immediately became excited and uttered a crisp cry, its wings fluttered, its head turned to the south, and its long and pointed beak ridiculously pointed towards that place. Keep going.

Is it heading south?Tan Yin rode on the organ bird and followed in the same direction.

become free!become free!
Yuan Zhong happily rode on the back of the Bird of Paradise, the gloomy sky could not affect his good mood at the moment, he finally got rid of that strange woman!What is refreshing? !What is elated? !What is carefree? !He felt that he fully understood the meaning of monk Xin Mao's words of being free and easy at this moment!

Where are you going next?He simply didn't want to think about this question, so he went wherever he wanted!As long as there is no Ji Tanyin, it is a good place.

He flew randomly in the boundless mountains and forests for more than half a month, going south, west, and east for a while, until he was sure that there was no one behind him, and then he instructed the bird of paradise to fly slowly towards the west.

Ji Tanyin's matter can't be left alone, Zifei couldn't find out, so he simply did it himself.

It was four hours later when we arrived at Baitou Mountain, before Yuan Zhong flew to the top of the mountain, he felt the rain was falling, and the raindrops were quite heavy.

He looked up and saw that half of Baitou Mountain was shrouded in smoke and clouds, which was a scene he had never seen before.Mount Baitou is the place where Mr. Meishan sat down and turned into a fairy through the thunderstorm. Every plant and tree here, and all kinds of changes in the weather, are inextricably linked with Mr. Meishan. The sporadic rain, could it be that Mr. Meishan is emotional recently? bad?

The bird of paradise obviously didn't like the feeling of being drenched by the rain. With a long cry, it flapped its wings and rushed to the top of the mountain like lightning.

The situation on the top of the mountain seemed to be worse... Yuan Zhong jumped down and looked around. He remembered that there used to be a small wooden bridge over there?Why... why is the wooden bridge gone and turned into a river?The flowers planted in front of the door were dejected by the rain and looked like they would fall at any time.

Yuan Zhong was full of doubts, raised his wooden stick and knocked on the small leather drum next to the door. After waiting for a long time, two spirit ghosts opened the door with umbrellas and mournful faces. He said bluntly: "The master said, I haven't seen any guests for a few days, please come back."

Yuan Zhong smiled and said, "You don't even see me?"

The two spirit ghosts stared at him for a long time, until they found that he was leading a huge and gorgeous bird of paradise behind him, then spirit ghost B exclaimed: "You, aren't you a great monk of the fox clan! You changed your face again? Almost didn't recognize it!"

Yuan Zhong looked at the continuous rainstorm above his head, and wondered: "Why is it raining here? What happened to Meishan?"

The little ghosts pursed their mouths and muttered: "It's not because of that little Mei..."

Xiaomei?who?Seems like a familiar name?Yuan Zhong was even more surprised. Following the spirit ghosts into the courtyard, he saw that the path was flooded with water, and the flowers that once bloomed in the courtyard were all withered. The beautiful Meishan Residence was lifeless. It seemed that the backyard was flooded even more. The spirit ghosts were busy sweeping the water with their umbrellas, and there were exclamations from time to time, presumably because they were splashed by the water and turned into blank paper prototypes.

"His Royal Highness..." Leading him to the backyard, the little ghosts looked at him cautiously and said in a low voice, "Don't mention the name Xinmei in front of him, or Meishan Residence will really be flooded."

Yuan Zhong rolled his eyes and agreed, and pushed open the door, only to see jugs and glasses all over the floor, the room was full of alcohol, Meishan Jun was leaning on the low table half drunk and half awake, with a jug of wine in his hand, he was about to fall to the ground.

Yuan Zhong smiled and walked over to sit opposite him, and the first thing he said when he opened his mouth was: "So you really like that mortal girl Xin Mei?"

When Meishanjun heard the word Xinmei in a haze, his chest hurt, and he opened his mouth and began to cry loudly.

Yuan Zhong laughed loudly: "So it's true?"

He held his chin and recalled all the contacts he had with Xin Mei, um, the little girl looks good, but with her temper, I'm afraid no one would dare to eat it.

"You, you, you..." Meishan Jun looked up at the man who was smiling so badly while crying, and when he saw that it was a great monk, his crying weakened immediately.

He doesn't have much contact with the great monk, he is not as unscrupulous as Fu Jiuyun and Zhen Hongsheng, not to mention that this person is a great monk of the fox clan, with a noble blood, Meishan Lord dare not be rude, so he immediately stopped crying, put his hands together, and brought Nasal salute: "Why is Your Highness the great monk free to visit us today?"

Yuan Zhong said with a smile: "I came to see you when I was free, but I didn't expect that you were trapped by love and drank alone, why don't I accompany you for a drink or two?"

Meishan Jun smiled wryly: "You...you also want to laugh at me..."

"No and no." Yuan Zhong shook his hand and chuckled, "Lovesickness is deep and human, why should I laugh at you. It's just that drinking alone like this is not an option. If you continue to cry, Mount Baitou will die It's flooding."

Meishan Jun let out a long sigh and remained silent for a while.

The spirit ghosts quickly changed their drinks, Yuan Zhong raised his glass and looked at him, and said: "I heard that when I asked you to do something, I must beat you in terms of drinking capacity, but this?"

Mr. Meishan immediately woke up from the hazy drunkenness, and said in amazement: "You want to ask me to do something?"

"Hmm..." Yuan Zhong pondered for a moment, and then said: "There are many good wines in the clan, but I didn't bring a few jars with me when I came out in a hurry, and I didn't have the booklet of wine making at hand, so I can only drink a few glasses with you."

The fine wines of the fox clan were once enshrined to the gods!Mr. Meishan remembered the jars of "drunk life and dreaming death" that Fu Jiuyun once brought him, his eyes lit up immediately, and the wine in his hand suddenly turned into scum of disdain.

"It's okay, it's okay!" He could not wait to hold the big monk's hand affectionately, "It's fine to use two altars of drunkenness and dreaming to make up for it next time! What do you want to check? Just say it!"

Yuan Zhong couldn't laugh or cry, dipped his finger in the green wine, and slowly wrote three words on the table: Ji Tanyin.

"Check this woman out."

Meishan Jun opened his mouth wide and looked at him in embarrassment: "There are so many people with the same name in the world, this... this..."

"Can't find it?" Yuan Zhong got up with a half-smile, "Then I'll take my leave."

"Wait! I'll check right away!" Mr. Meishan really couldn't bear to let go of those two altars, so he immediately called out the little crow and let it go to the Golden Snake Clan, and borrowed their heavenly book to check.
