Chapter 286

Seeing that Long Ji had gone, Jing Shi had no regrets at the moment, holding a flower branch in his hand, he returned to the mountain waterfall.After walking most of the way, Fang Jue felt the wind invade his muscles and bones, and gradually felt chills.Fortunately, there was still a warm feeling in his chest, so he immediately quickened his pace and rushed to the waterfall, only to see Gu'erwan standing in the snow, holding a wooden stick, confronting the green-tailed peacock.The feathers on both sides were bristling and shouting at each other. For a while, the apes howled and the birds yelled, and the noise was so loud that the birds in the forest fled in fright.

Gu'erwan caught the peacock out from Longji's feet, and was returning to play in the cave, but was pecked by the peacock, and immediately became furious and threw it out of the cave.

The peacock is originally a sunny bird. Because of its long feathered tail and brilliant appearance, it is often said to be a phoenix spirit bird among the people, and wealthy families prefer to keep it in their homes.Although the theory of the phoenix species is mostly false, the peacock is good at repelling evil and can detoxify all kinds of poisons. It is often an enemy of snakes and scorpions.Only its nature is similar to that of the pheasant. The male is beautiful and impatient, and living in the wild island for a long time, it is even more ferocious.Suddenly being grabbed by Gu'erwan, his tail fluttered, and he screamed sharply, which made Gu'erwan jump into a rage.It was just that there was a lot of trouble, and when Jing Shi came back suddenly, he retracted his tail feathers and went to rest under the stone pile by the lake.

Although the Gu'er bowl was full of anger, but seeing Jing Shi coming back, he was concerned in the end, put the stick back behind his back, ran to Jing Shi and said, "Jing Guan'er, what did you do with that white lady?"

Jing Shi said: "Just gossip." Then he walked to the cave on the mountain wall, and when he reached the entrance of the cave, he could see the snow on the ground in front of the cave melted, but the green stars were gone.Now I went straight into the cave, took my luggage, and went back to Dongquan village.

Gu'erwan walked with him, although he heard his understatement, but he refused to let it go lightly, his eyes rolled a few times and said: "I think that Bai Niangniang walks very lightly, if it's not a female ghost, it's those who know how to do it in the city." Yes. Jing Guaner, you also said that you know how to do it yourself, who is better than her?"

While walking, Jing Shi said: "I only know the mystical theory, but I don't have any power, so I can't be compared with the immortal. She is a distinguished guest of the immortal family, so don't talk nonsense."

Gu'er Wan said: "I think she looks about the same as you, and she doesn't have three heads and six arms. How can she be so precious?"

Jing Shi was startled when he heard the words, but was stumped by the golden retriever.But I don't know the title of Qingdu here, let alone the Southern Territory Shrine, so how can I explain it clearly to him.After thinking for a while, Fang said: "There are many people who can cast spells. She knows spells better than others, and can do more things than others. Naturally, others dare not offend her."

Gu'er Wan seemed to understand, scratched his head and pondered for a while, and said: "I don't think she is very powerful, but I think you people in mainland China have the rules, whether you are expensive or not depends entirely on what you wear. I see that she is dressed so much, although she is not wearing clothes. The gold and silver stones are too troublesome to just drag the cloth, so it must not be a good match."

Jing Shi didn't know that he was perfunctory with his words, so he couldn't help being speechless, and said for a long time: "If you see her next time, don't open your mouth so easily."

Gu'erwan was confused, and felt quite wronged, staring and said: "You won't let me speak?"

Jing Shi knew his temper, so he didn't reason at the moment, he just smiled and said: "Which one is the highest peak on the island?"

Gu'er Wan said: "It must be the small peak in the deep mountain."

Jing Shi hummed and said: "If your lady Bai is angry, just go down with a sword, and this peak will become an abyss."

Gu'er Wan opened his mouth in disbelief, tilted his head to look at the mountain peak behind him, he couldn't help but doubt it.Jing Shi also let him think wildly, just picked up the flower branch in his hand, and looked at it silently.Just in the midst of his thoughts, his back suddenly sank, and Gu'erwan jumped up again, hugged his neck and said, "Jing Guaner, what kind of treasure are these flowers of yours? How come one is red and the other is white, and it can still be born in On the same branch?"

Jing Shi said: "This is a gift from the immortal just now. It is not a rare treasure, but it is just a lucky thing for body protection. I will put it in the village later, and you can't pick it up randomly."

Gu'erwan deserved a cry, but he didn't let go, still hugging Jingshi's back.After all, Jing Shi has a mortal body, he was exposed to the cold and heavy, and was about to tell him to calm down, but Gu'er Wan said: "Jing Guaner, did the white lady scold you?"

Jing Shi was startled when he heard the words, and said, "No. Why did you say that?"

Gu'er Wan said: "I saw that your face was tense when you came back. You said that the white lady is older than you, just like me and the old woman with water flowers. The old woman used to teach me to speak your Chinese language, and she spoke a little No, you want to scold me for being playful. Jing Guaner, if the White Lady never said anything about you, why are you so unhappy?"

Ever since Jingshi knew the bone bowl, he only felt that his nature was bright and wild, and his wild nature was hard to get rid of. It was really difficult to train and tame him.He was told by Gu'erwan, but he had no intention of hiding it, he just raised his arm and touched Gu'erwan's head and said: "I am not unhappy because of her words, but there is one thing I can't understand."

Gu'er Wan said: "Can't you figure it out? Let me think about it for you."

Jing Shi smiled when he heard the words, but he didn't say anything, he was really entangled, just now he grabbed Gu'er Wan's arm and said: "I saw a strange thing when I was young, it has something to do with her, so far I haven't figured it out yet. Just now I talked to her Speaking, I want to ask her about this matter."

Gu'er Wan said: "Then how will she answer?"

Jing Shi shook his head and frowned, and said for a long time, "She's lying."

Gu'er Wan was amazed when he heard the words, but Jing Shi refused to say anything, he just hugged him down, put him back on the ground and said: "This matter is very suspicious, and it involves the elder's selfishness, so it should not be taken lightly. Draw conclusions. What I just said, don’t mention it to others.”

Gu'er promised in the mouth of the bowl, and did not forget Jing Shi's words, grabbed his trouser leg and said, "Jing Guan'er, you said that the white lady lied to you, but wanted to harm you?"

Jing Shi shook his head and said: "No." Then he said: "This matter may not have anything to do with me, maybe she is lying for others."

Hearing what he said, Gu'erwan felt relieved, hugged the wooden stick and said, "You people from mainland China have always thought the most, and you like to talk in circles when you talk. But if the white lady doesn't want to hurt you, just tell some lies casually, Let her do as she pleases. Jing Guaner, are you worried?"

Jing Shi smiled again, nodded and said: "You are right. The matter of the immortal family has nothing to do with ordinary people. It's just that I have doubts in my heart." He put the flower branch in his hand on the bag and didn't mention it again.

The two talked and talked, and entered Dongquan Village again.Jingshi originally planned to go to Wuma to inquire about the mountain beast, but because of Longji's sudden arrival, all his thoughts were disturbed.When he was able to live in the house, he borrowed a bowl from a neighbor, filled it with clean water, put the plum branch in it, and sat at the front of the table to watch.He saw the two flowers on the branch blooming together, and the fragrance filled the room, and he fell into meditation again unconsciously.From dusk to night, when I wanted to start writing a book, I was still distracted, unable to care about other things, so I silently closed my pen and fell asleep.

It was peaceful in bed at night, dreamless all night, until dawn the next day, Jingshi woke up early to wash his hands, Gu'er Wan entered the room, jumped on the table to look at him, and said cheerfully, "Jing Guaner, your complexion is much better today. Why do you still have fragrance on your body?"

Jingshi looked at his face with the water, and he saw that he was full of energy and radiant, and he raised his sleeve to smell it, but he didn't feel any strange smell.He values ​​cleanliness and cleanliness, is diligent in washing and changing clothes, and has no habit of incense.Hearing Gu'erwan's words at this moment, he didn't take it to heart, he just said: "I think it's the fragrance of flowers in the house."

Gu'er Wan said: "No, no. Can't I tell where the fragrance comes from? The fragrance of flowers in the house, I know it's from the table. You have another fragrance on your body, which smells strange and smells like meat. Jing Guaner, can you Did you hide food under your clothes?" After saying that, he rushed forward, his nose twitched, and he sniffed a few times.

Jing Shi tried to raise his hand to sniff his sleeve again, but he didn't notice anything, so he pushed the bone bowl away a little and said: "If you are hungry, you can eat and drink yourself, don't wait for me."

Gu'er Wan said: "I'm not hungry. Jing Guan'er, where are you going today?"

Jing Shi pondered for a moment, and said: "I will not leave the village for the next few days, so I will do business here." Immediately, he went out of the house, called the treasury officials in the village, checked the books and records, and handed them in for a look. Although the handwriting was the same as before It is different, but it is full of mistakes and omissions, and it is difficult to know the exact number.Then go to the warehouse to count the amount of grain, which is more than a hundred catties less than the day before.When I asked the treasury official why, he was dumbfounded again and didn't know.Seeing this, Gu'er Wan was in a hurry and wanted to persuade Jing Shi not to be angry, but Jing Shi kept his usual expression and said with a smile: "I think the cat in the mountain has left."
