Chapter 2 The Book of Heaven(1/3)
The next morning, the bell rang in the spring rain all over the city. On the foggy Kuishou Street, two wind-chasing horses stopped together.
Xu Buling wore a straw raincoat and all wore a straw hat, stood at the door, hugging and saying goodbye to his wives one by one.
Yuelu Mountain is located in Chu, more than 1,500 miles away from Chang'an City. According to the strength of Zhui Fengma, it takes half a month to go back and forth.
The separation time was not too long, but they spent so long at home and suddenly left for a few days. The girls obviously couldn't bear to leave. Even Xiao Xianger and Zhu Manzhi got up early and stood outside the gate to see each other off.
Little Taohua is also dressed in a martial arts world, carrying two iron spears, standing behind the stone lion waiting.
Yesterday I promised to go out with Xu Buling. Xiao Taohua thought that many people were together and she followed the team. Only now did she realize that Xu Buling didn't want to take her wives out for adventure, but she just went back and took a look, and she followed her alone.
A lonely man and a widow walk around the world, but she can't beat Xu Buling. If there is no place to rest on the road and the two of them make do with each other, wouldn't they go with the flow?
Xiao Taohua stood at the door and hesitated for a while, her eyes searched the girls, and gradually locked on Chen Sining.
Xiao Taohua and Chen Sining, Zhu Manzhi had a friendship in Northern Qi and had the best relationship. Manzhi had poor martial arts skills, and even if she wanted to speak for her, she probably couldn't protect her. Chen Sining was stronger and had two little snakes to rely on. Maybe she could help her on the way.
Thinking of this, Xiao Taohua walked to the stairs and said with a smile:
"Sister Si Ning, don't you want to go around the Central Plains? I finally went out, but I still want you to take me to see the world. Don't you follow me?"
The girl at the gate didn't want to go out for a trip with Xu Buling? It's just that Fu Bao's grandfather's information is unknown and his identity is special. He didn't know what happened in the past, so the girls didn't mean to follow him.
According to her strength, Chen Sining would not drag her back with Xu Buling, but she still had her own things to do. She said a little confusedly:
"Well... my shop is still open, if no one takes care of it..."
Ning Qingye has a straightforward personality and does not have so many twists and turns. Seeing that Xiao Taohua has no companion, she will definitely be bullied and speak cleanly:
"Your shop is under your care and no one goes to eat. It's better to go out with Xiao Taohua to relax."
“…”
Outside the mansion, I was suddenly stunned and laughed.
Chen Sining pursed her lips and wanted to refute it, but she had nothing to say, so she had to smile embarrassedly:
"It seems that's true."
Cui Xiaowan felt most distressed about her nominal niece. Seeing that Chen Sining also had the intention to follow her, she spoke:
"Sining, if you want to go, go. Let Manzhi take care of the shop. Maybe when you come back, your business will be booming."
Zhu Manzhi had not woken up in the morning, and hugged Qingye's waist and said vaguely:
"Yes, I'm the second boss. I've got my hands on it and I've already earned my money back. You must not let it..."
Chen Sining has not taken care of her parents since she was young, and she is very independent in doing things. She has to do things by herself. She believes in her own abilities, and is afraid that she will make a mess and turn the stolen house into a storyteller.
But now it is almost yellow, and there are a few people who listen to books that are better than those who have no one in. Chen Sining hesitated, took off the key from her waist and handed it to Manzhi:
"Then I'll trouble you. Don't mess around. The signboard is written by my husband. You are not allowed to be replaced. Also, you have to sell snail noodles..."
Zhu Manzhi took the key, stuffed it into the collar, and waved his hand lazily:
"I know, you are not at ease when Motochi is doing things? Just come back and count the money."
Chen Sining pursed her lips and wanted to give her a few more words, but after thinking about it carefully, she was better than her now. She didn't say much now and turned around and walked down the steps.
Xiao Xianger and Xiao Qi stood together, thought for a moment, but remembered something, and said, "Wait." Then they ran into the back house.
The other girls' expressions were condensed, as if they knew what was going to happen, and they all blinked strangely.
Chen Sining realized that something was wrong and wanted to pull Xiao Taohua away first. Unfortunately, Xu Buling had no intention of moving and kept a bright smile to tease her son.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Xianger ran out of her home and, without any surprise, took a small wooden box and put it in Xu Buling's hand:
"Give it, go early and come back soon."
Xiao Qi couldn't stand this sister and glanced at Xiao Xianger:
"You are considerate."
Lu Hongluan held her son, but she didn't want to say it clearly, but she just said with a strange look:
"She hasn't always been like this, she's accomplices to the tiger."
Xiao Xiang'er has Xu Bu Ling's support anyway, so she doesn't care about it at all.
Xu Buling handed the small wooden box to Si Ning with satisfaction and said with a smile:
"It's still the baby who is caring, let's go first."
Song Yufu was a little worried about her grandfather, but the news was unclear and she couldn't say anything randomly. After thinking about it, she still said softly:
"My husband walks slowly, go early and come back soon."
"Okay, let's go back and set off."
Xu Buling waved his hand and then turned over and jumped onto the black Fengfeng Horse.
Little Taohua came up to the white wind chasing horse in Qingye. She wanted to raise her hand to pull Chen Sining up, but unfortunately, Chen Sining had just flew up and was hooked by Xu Buling in the air and sat in Xu Buling's arms.
"drive"
Xu Buling lightly clamped his horse's belly and rushed out of Kuishou Street.
Chen Sining sat in her arms with her arms around her waist, her face turned red instantly, and she twisted her shoulders a little embarrassedly:
"My husband, what are you doing? On the street, let me sit with Xiao Taohua."
Xu Buling glanced at him. It was really bad to hug each other on the street, so he raised his straw raincoat and wrapped Chen Si.
Little Taohua rode a horse behind her, and the big white eagle was squatting in her arms. Seeing this intimate scene, she felt a little reluctant to look directly, and turned her head and looked elsewhere...—
In early spring of February, two wind-chasing horses were racing on the drizzling official road. Even if they ran fifty miles and rested for two quarters of an hour, they stopped and arrived near Wudang Mountain the next afternoon.
They traveled day and night, and only took a break at the inn at night. They ran for more than 600 miles in a row. When they arrived around Wudang Mountain, they could hold on, but the horses were already exhausted. The three of them slowed down and looked for a place to rest overnight.
On the mountain road at dusk, Xu Buling rode his horse toward the top of the hill, with a cold face that looked like he was enjoying the scenery, but his hand was holding Chen Sining under the straw raincoat, and he was secretly flirtatious and careless.
Chen Sining changed from sitting sideways to sitting face to face in Xu Buling's arms, leaning her cheeks against her shoulders, and she looked like she was sleeping with her eyes closed. As the horses tumbled, her body was slightly flushed, and there was a strange blush on her cheeks, but she was covered by her long hair, so she couldn't tell anything strange.
Little Taohua walked behind and saw this mountain road that was rarely visited and asked softly:
“Where are we going?”
Hearing Xiao Taohua's speech that had been silent for a long time, Chen Sining came to her senses and felt a little panicked and wanted to get up and separate, but Xu Buling pressed his back and sat firmly, silently whispered, and quickly became calm and looked around:
"This is Wudang Mountain, right? Qingye and Sister Yuhe used to live here?"
Xu Buling calmly raised his hand and pointed to the direction of the mountain:
"The above is Changqing Temple. Yuhe used to be a Taoist priest. He happened to come here and rest there for a night."
Seeing this, Xiao Taohua didn't ask much, and followed Xu Buling to the top of the hill.
The Taoist temple on the top of the mountain has become somewhat dilapidated because it has been uninhabited all year round. It has fallen leaves inside and outside, and the door is still locked, but no one dares to come and move things around.
Xu Buling stopped the horse in front of the Taoist temple, Chen Sining quickly got up, came out from under the straw raincoat, and landed on the ground to tidy up his skirt.
Little peach blossom jumped down from the white wind horse, led the horse to the Taoist temple and looked at it, then looked at Chen Sining next to him, and said a little strangely:
"Sister Si Ning, why is your skirt wet?"
Chen Sining looked down and saw a little water mark on the hem of her skirt, which looked quite obvious. Her face suddenly turned red, she quickly raised her hand and patted her, and said with a smile:
"It's raining, maybe I've got it accidentally."
After saying that, he jumped into the courtyard wall of the Taoist temple, and staggered unsteadily when he landed on the ground.
Little Taohua was puzzled and fell to the ground. Just as she was about to continue asking, Xu Buling landed in front of her and said with a smile:
"If you ride a horse, your legs may be numb. Find a place to rest. You have to rush to the road tomorrow."
Xiao Taohua was always embarrassed to talk to Xu Buling, and without any response, she followed Chen Sining into the house silently.
There is only one bedroom in Ning Yuhe's Taoist temple with two small beds inside. It is neatly tidy, but it has been uninhabited for a long time and some dust has fallen.
Chen Sining and Xiao Taohua cleaned up the house very seriously, then lay down to rest and recover.
As a big man, Xu Buling did not go in and sleep directly. He sat under the eaves of the silly white eagle and watched the night, looking outside the mountain, thinking about some messy things.
The sky was getting darker, and the inside and outside of the Taoist temple was drizzling, and the whole world was so quiet that there was no noise.
Xiao Taohua and Chen Sining were lying on two wooden beds, and they were not sleepy at this moment.
Chen Sining is quite talkative. She was secretly tossed by Xu Buling on the road and didn't dare to speak. At this time, she was afraid that Xiao Taohua would see something strange, so she took the initiative to talk:
"Little Taohua, your injury is almost healed. I heard Xu Buling say that he will come in after he goes back. Are you nervous?"
Xiao Taohua hesitated for a moment and said softly: "Master asked me to stare at him in the future. I will sacrifice my life for justice for the sake of the people of the world, and there is nothing to worry about."
Chen Sining felt that this answer was too formal, so she turned her head and asked with a smile:
"Do you like Xu Buling?"
Xiao Taohua blinked her eyes, raised her head and glanced outside. She felt that Xu Buling couldn't hear it, and then lowered her voice and said:
"I don't know either. I'm so happy to be with you anyway, and I don't want to leave anymore. But my elder brother is too skilled in martial arts. Master asked me to stare at him. My martial arts must not be able to keep an eye on me, so I have to act like I'm not easy to mess with, so I won't become like Sister Manzhi and obey him with the will."
“…”
Chen Sining was a little surprised and felt that the little peach blossoms now were the innocent little girl back then. She pursed her lips and smiled:
To be continued...
