This is what a fairy should be like

In Wuling County, at the famous Zuifeng Tower in the city, Zhao Chenyu ordered wine and food to entertain Tao Yuanming and Liu Hongyu.

On the way to the restaurant, Tao Yuanming had already told Zhao Chenyu all about it. During his trip, he accidentally arrived at a place that was like a fairyland on earth. A few words made Zhao Chenyu's heart itch.

When they arrived at the restaurant, the food had not yet been served, but the wine had already been brought. Zhao Chenyu hurriedly poured wine for Tao Yuanming.

"Brother Yuan Liang, the wine has come. Speak quickly. Don't try to show off!"

Tao Yuanming picked up the cup and took a sip of the wine, then frowned slightly. The taste was far worse than that in the Hidden Immortal Valley...

But Tao Yuanming was not a pretentious person, so he overcame it and continued drinking.

"Tsk tsk haha...Brother Qiming, please introduce Tao to make it clear. Don't tell outsiders what I said today!"

The people in the Hidden Immortal Valley have never asked not to be told. This sentence is just Tao Yuanming's own thoughts. He has the selfish intention of retaining the mystery, and to a certain extent, he does not want the peace of the valley to be disturbed.

Today's Tao Yuanming is still a fledgling, and he is conceited about his talent. With his youth and arrogance, it is natural that he can't help but show off in front of his friends.

Just like young people of any era, bragging in front of friends is a necessary spiritual enjoyment!

"Oh, Yuan Liang is relieved, just say it!"

Zhao Chenyu naturally agreed.

Liu Hongyu sat very quietly on the side, not disturbing the conversation between the two, but occasionally looking elsewhere, observing the surroundings, or looking out the window at the street.

The liveliness of Wuling County and the comfort of Yinxian Valley formed a sharp contrast, which also had a big impact on Liu Hongyu.

Tao Yuanming put down the wine cup and pointed at the mouth of the cup. His friend across from him immediately poured the wine knowingly, which also caused the former to burst into laughter.

Zhao Chenyu glanced at Liu Hongyu, who was in a daze, and poured him a drink.

It was only then that Liu Hongyu came back to his senses, waved his hand and said "no".

"Okay, I won't be too pretentious..."

Tao Yuanming's words attracted the attention of both of them. He came closer to the table, glanced at Liu Hongyu before looking at his friend, and lowered his voice a bit.

"A few days ago, I went boating along the waters of Wuling, looking for a secluded and quiet place to view the mountains and rivers and cultivate my sentiments. Unknowingly, there were fewer and fewer boats around, so that I was the only one left behind. Zhou'er..."

In the narrative, Tao Yuanming was on a boating trip along the river. The surrounding mountains and rivers were beautiful and pleasant, and the boating people were intoxicated. Suddenly, they found that a thin mist gradually appeared, and the waterways became denser, and they were a little lost!

Tao Yuanming said, Zhao Chenyu listened carefully, and even Liu Hongyu pricked up his ears.

"I took things easy and didn't panic. I just followed the current and waited for the fog to dissipate. But suddenly..."

Tao Yuanming paused before continuing.

"I saw a brilliant light appearing in the sky in the mountains in the distance. Its brilliance was as brilliant as colorful smoke. With my temperament, I naturally wanted to find out!"

Zhao Chenyu couldn't help but nodded.

"It would be the same for me!"

Tao Yuanming's expression also became serious.

"It's just that at this moment, the current has become weird. I was going forward with the current, but suddenly it seemed to have turned. I was rowing in the fog, and I had to row hard to continue moving forward..."

"Is there such a thing?"

"It's no lie!"

Tao Yuanming didn't talk nonsense and continued.

"I don't know how long we have been boating, but my arms are already sore, but I find red flowers in the water flowing with the water. Looking towards the shore, I unknowingly appear a peach blossom forest. The peach blossoms in the forest are so wonderful!"

Zhao Chenyu was stunned for a moment. It sounded like he had discovered a vast forest of peach blossoms in the deep mountains?

"Maybe someone planted it?"

"I thought so too, and wanted to see what was going on. Not long after, there was a shallow source of water in front of the peach blossom grove. I stopped the boat on the shore and walked forward. I found a gorge at the end of the peach blossom grove. I saw that the gorge was gleaming with light. , and then continued forward..."

Getting lost while boating, walking through the fog, the water flowing in the opposite direction, peach blossoms looming...

Finally, the forest cleared up the water source and found the mountain pass. After a difficult passage, they entered a strange valley, and there were actually people living in the valley...

The valley was so magnificent that even when Tao Yuanming recalled it, he still felt like he had stepped into a fairyland, and his arrival also alarmed the people in the valley.

The two parties asked each other...

"The people among them have escaped from the world and don't know their age. They are all remnants of the pre-Qin Dynasty! When I ask what time it is now, I don't know the Han Dynasty, let alone the Wei and Jin Dynasties..."

Zhao Chenyu's expression was already a little sluggish, and this story was too mysterious. How could someone escape from the pre-Qin period and come to the present?

"There are many strange people among them, some have extraordinary skills and crafts, some have extraordinary medical skills and are well versed in all kinds of herbs, some are knowledgeable and proficient in hundreds of things, but everyone is indifferent to fame and wealth and is aloof from the world... Even fine wine has an extraordinary taste. !”

"By the way, the ancient Qin accent is somewhat different from the current Mandarin, but it is still understandable. The key is that the words are clear and more euphemistic. This is the ancient Yayan Luo dialect. Although it has the same name today, it is different. The sound is obviously specious, which is disappointing!”

Although Tao Yuanming was bragging a bit, it was largely his true feelings.

As he spoke, Tao Yuanming subconsciously looked at Liu Hongyu. Mr. Liu, who had arrived in the valley first, had spoken the ancient elegance very well, with only occasional awkwardness.

This is probably because of the soul-losing syndrome, which requires Young Master Liu to adapt to many new things, and by some strange combination of circumstances, he has learned the same ancient Yayin sounds!

Liu Hongyu on the side saw Tao Yuanming's look and thought he was seeking approval, so he nodded subconsciously, not realizing that his words were closer to the so-called ancient elegant words than the people of the Jin Dynasty.

Zhao Chenyu next to him was stunned for a moment, and then repeatedly asked Tao Yuanming if he was kidding him, but the latter always said seriously that he was not lying.

"Does that valley have a name?"

Zhao Chenyu asked this. Tao Yuanming was about to speak, but hesitated. Then he glanced at Liu Hongyu who was sitting beside him, and then remembered the colorful peach blossom forest before entering the valley, and then said with a smile.

"That's where the peach blossoms come from!"

Zhao Chenyu felt goosebumps as he heard it, and he was even more yearning for it in his heart. Tao Yuanming was very satisfied with his friend's performance.

Not far away, the restaurant waiter who brought the dishes was stunned for a while, and then he realized what he was doing and hurriedly served the dishes.

"Guests, the food is here~~~"

Tao Yuanming watched the waiter serve the food, and then looked at his friend who was still in a trance. He remembered that the other party was looking for him so urgently, so he asked.

"By the way, is there anything special that I've done these days since I've been away?"

Zhao Chenyu came to his senses after hearing this, shook his head and was about to say something, when the waiter at the restaurant next to him opened the door first.

"Well, this little guy knows very well that there have been bandits roaming around our Wuling County area recently, and there have been several murders. Tsk, tsk, I heard that those individuals died miserably..."

Zhao Chenyu also nodded.

"That's why I'm so anxious to find brother Yuan Liang, and I'm also afraid that he will be harmed by gangsters..."

As he spoke, Zhao Chenyu sent the restaurant waiter away to personally tell Tao Yuanming about the recent situation and the government's reaction.

But it turned out that the brutal gangster had not been caught, and there were no witnesses. The government could only post notices to collect clues.

This kind of notice is more important to reassure people than it is to have actual effects, and it is likely to go unnoticed in the end.

After all, this kind of bandit is unlikely to linger in one place forever.

Zhao Chenyu was talking about the recent danger and expressing concern for his friends, but Tao Yuanming became a little lost as he listened.

Tao Yuanming thought of the Hidden Immortal Valley, what the people there said, and what Zhuang Lin said.

Mr. Zian is a scholar of heaven but unwilling to leave the valley. He is right. In fact, the chaos outside is not as good as the Peach Blossom Land...

"Yuan Liang, brother Yuan Liang?"

"Huh?"

Tao Yuanming came back to his senses. Zhao Chenyu in front of him smiled and shook his head, and then said with great interest.

"Brother Yuan Liang, tell me more about Peach Blossom Spring!"

"Hahahaha... Okay, let's talk a little more... Just talking about this dish, the deliciousness of the cooking is incomparable..."

------------------

Before the sun set, the three of them came out of the restaurant.

Originally, he was a little disdainful of the wine in this restaurant, but perhaps when he was talking about the Peach Blossom Spring, he thought of the fine wine there, which aroused Tao Yuanming's alcohol addiction, so he drank a lot.

Well, Tao Yuanming got drunk again. Zhao Chenyu and Liu Hongyu helped him go home.

Zhao Chenyu was quite powerful in Wuling, and the courtyard at his home was much larger than that of ordinary people. Tao Yuanming had been living here since he came here before.

After helping Tao Yuanming lie down in his guest room, Zhao Chenyu moved his arms to relax, and saw Liu Hongyu still busy there, taking off Tao Yuanming's shoes and covering him with a quilt.

As if realizing that Zhao Chenyu was still there, Liu Hongyu turned around and saluted him again.

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhao, I am here. I will take good care of Mr. Yuan Liang. There is no need to arrange a special residence for me. I can just spread a quilt on the floor under Mr. Yuan Liang's bed!"

"Uh, okay, I'll take my leave now. If Mr. Liu has anything to do, just call the people in the courtyard and a servant will come to help! I'll order someone to bring the quilt later!"

"Yes, thank you Mr. Zhao!"

Liu Hongyu bowed again. As for calling Zhao Chenyu, because some people in the restaurant called him that, he also called him that. It must be said that his learning ability is not bad.

Zhao Chenyu nodded, looked at Liu Hongyu again, then returned the salute and turned to leave.

Regarding Mr. Liu, at first Zhao Chenyu thought he was probably a follower whom a friend had picked up on the road.

However, Yuan Liang's behavior towards this person in the restaurant did not look like a servant. Moreover, if you look closely at Liu Hongyu's appearance, his slightly delicate appearance did not look like that of an ordinary person. His family should be well off.

Coupled with the issue of his accent, it seems that he is a scholar who has come from afar and is eager for knowledge...

Knowledge has always been in the hands of famous families and high scholars. It is too difficult for ordinary people to be knowledgeable. Zhao Chenyu regarded Liu Hongyu as such a person, and he guessed correctly to a certain extent.

At the same time, Zhao Chenyu also lamented that although he knew that with his good friend’s talents, he would achieve something in the future, he did not expect that someone would follow him to study now.

After Zhao Chenyu went out, he looked back at the guest room.

Is it because there is no news in Wuling? Is he already so famous?

------------------

After a while, the Zhao family's servant brought hot water. Liu Hongyu asked him to step aside, took the basin and wiped Tao Yuanming's mouth and cheeks himself.

Mr. Liu, who has been used to being served by others since he was a child, actually does these things in a similar way.

In Liu Hongyu's mind, he should do his best to take care of his master, otherwise he would not pass the test!

Tao Yuanming did not sleep for long, and woke up in a daze when he applied the hot towel to his face. He squinted and saw that it was Liu Hongyu who was taking care of him again.

"Mr. Liu..."

"Ah, Mr. Yuanliang, you are awake!"

Liu Hongyu was surprised, and Tao Yuanming waved his hand and wanted to sit up. The former quickly put down the towel and helped the latter sit up from the bed, and then took a cup from the table on the side.

"Mr. Yuanliang, please drink water!"

Tao Yuanming took the cup and drank a sip. It was still warm, which showed that Liu Hongyu was very concerned.

"Alas... Mr. Liu, you don't have to do this. Since Tao promised to help you find your relatives, he will definitely not break his promise!"

Liu Hongyu smiled and said "yes", but he didn't say much. Of course, the test is not something that can be done overnight. He understands!

Tao Yuanming looked at the other party's expression and frowned slightly, as if he thought of something.

"By the way, Mr. Zi'an said that Master Liu and I were studying together in the academy. Although I dare not say that I am proficient in all schools of thought, I have also been studying since I was a child. You are with me during this period of time, so how about I teach you?"

Liu Hongyu was surprised. Is this possible?

It is said that everything depends on one's own sincerity. My sincere master saw it!

In ecstasy, Liu Hongyu thanked and kowtowed.

"Thank you, Master!"

"Dong Dong Dong!"

"Thank you, Master!"

"Dong Dong Dong!"

"Thank you, Master!"

Tao Yuanming was stunned for a moment, and then he was scared. He was sobered up by the fright and hurriedly got out of bed to support Liu Hongyu.

"No, no! Master Liu, I, Tao Yuanming, dare not call myself a teacher! This is not allowed--"

Tao Yuanming took a lot of effort to support Liu Hongyu, and the latter had a red mark on his forehead, which was obviously a real kowtow.

Tao Yuanming's forehead was covered with cold sweat. No wonder when he was in the valley, it seemed that someone also hinted that Master Liu might have more than just amnesia...

"Uh, hehe, Master Liu, I don't know what your foundation is. By the way, do you have any intention? Where do you want to start?"

Liu Hongyu couldn't suppress his joy, and then knelt there and said seriously.

"I came here with the will of heaven, crossing the boundaries of ancient and modern times to find a master to inherit the immortal way. I have no foundation so far. I hope that Master will accept it completely so that I can continue the immortal road! Please teach me the immortal method!"

Tao Yuanming was stunned again, and the cold sweat that had just been wiped off his forehead quickly seeped out again.

It's over, not only amnesia, but also hysteria!

"Master, Master?"

"Uh...this..."

Tao Yuanming's thoughts were a little messy at the moment. He had never encountered such a situation in his life and didn't know how to deal with it.

Suddenly, Tao Yuanming had an idea, and he got up from the bed, walked to the corner beside the bed, opened the study book box that he had not touched since he came to Wuling, and rummaged through it for a while, and finally found an old bamboo slip.

"Huhu~"

Tao Yuanming blew twice and patted his hands, then walked to the bed, hesitated and handed the bamboo slip to Liu Hongyu who was still kneeling there.

Let's focus on comforting first.

"I don't understand the so-called immortal method, but here is an ancient book that can help people calm their minds and spirits. It was accidentally obtained during the study tour. You may find it useful if you take a look!"

Liu Hongyu knelt there and took it with both hands excitedly.

I had learned some characters in Yinxian Valley before. Among the few characters engraved on the outside of the bamboo slip, Liu Hongyu recognized the word "jue", which was definitely a secret book!

"Thank you, Master, thank you, Master!"

Liu Hongyu bowed repeatedly while holding the bamboo slip, and Tao Yuanming helped him up with one hand and rubbed his temple with the other.
