What does Chapter 1253 explain?
Master was clearly talking to someone, but when Song Chunxue asked him, he said he was talking to himself.
Song Chunxue didn't press for details, even though her tone clearly didn't sound like it.
But considering that her master was no ordinary person, Song Chunxue felt that it was normal for him to chat with ghosts and gods.
Right now, she has something very urgent. The thought of her master going to the place where she has spent most of her life makes Song Chunxue regret agreeing to go back then.
If it were just Xie Zheng going, she could always find an excuse to change her mind, but there was also her master.
Master seemed easygoing, but Song Chunxue respected and feared him from the bottom of her heart. Suddenly she understood why the fourth brother, such a naughty child, would hide from Master like a mouse seeing a cat.
She was quite scared too.
So the thought of her master staying another night in that remote and impoverished village made her more and more nervous and uneasy. She didn't know what to prepare to better entertain her master.
So, before dawn, she got up, prepared snacks and steamed buns for tea and firewood, and told them to get up and drink tea in the pot, while she went out to prepare other things.
She went to the vegetable garden first and dug up some garlic and scallions. Although her master didn't eat them, she wanted to eat them herself.
They also picked radishes and yellow radishes, as well as ginger and Jerusalem artichokes, and went to Hongying's yard to pick Sichuan peppercorns.
After returning from the fields, the shops on the street gradually opened for business. Song Chunxue went to the seasoning shop and bought a lot of spices, since they weren't considered meat, so she prepared extra.
But the main food prepared was grains and vegetables, so as not to disturb the peace of his master with too much complicated food.
To Song Chunxue's surprise, she had never noticed before that in a small place like Zhuanglang County, there were actually many exotic plants that many farmers grew to earn money and improve their lives.
For example, there are celery, mustard greens, fern shoots, gourd greens, chard greens, and even some that she has never eaten or seen before.
Although the quantity is small, the price is not cheap.
She bought a little of everything, planning to try them when she got back.
It probably won't taste very good. People here only like a few things to eat, and they don't have high demands for dishes. They believe that only grains can fill their stomachs.
When she returned to the courtyard, she found that the three people had been waiting for her for a long time.
Qi Yun, who was squatting on the ground playing with the dog, rushed over as soon as she saw her and asked, "Master, where did you go? I thought you didn't want to take us to your village and had run away by yourself. I almost alerted my uncle to come looking for you."
"How could that be? Am I that kind of person?" Song Chunxue said calmly. "I was just worried that you wouldn't be used to the food there, and since no one has lived there for a long time, I bought some things for you."
Lord Xie and his master had both changed their clothes and looked much more low-key and approachable, which warmed Song Chunxue's heart.
She is happy that someone is willing to look back at her past.
"Let's take a carriage. I've rented one; it's right outside the door."
Qi Yun walked out of the courtyard. "Where's the horse? Do you want to use your stubborn donkey?"
“He doesn’t want to, but he’ll come along.” Song Chunxue went to the stone table, poured herself a cup of tea, and took a sip. “Shall we leave now, Master?”
"Let's go, it's said to be quite far, we might not arrive by noon." Without further ado, the Moon-Accompanying Immortal boarded the carriage first.
“Okay, let’s go then, take the dog with you.” Song Chunxue picked up the padlock. “I’ll lock the door.”
She had already told Hongying to go to the yard whenever she had time and sweep away the dust.
The other dog is with Hongying. The children like it very much and don't want Song Chunxue to take it away.
The children originally wanted to go to the estate with her, but she refused.
They are at the age where they should be studying; don't let them miss out on their studies.
Most importantly, she wanted some peace and quiet.
They hadn't been in the carriage for long when they started climbing uphill with it. The four practitioners were all in good shape, climbing the steep slope without even breaking a sweat. Along the way, they encountered several carts going uphill. The drivers, seeing that they were keeping up with the carriages without getting out of breath, kept exclaiming, "You guys are really strong. Have you been practicing martial arts?"
Qi Yun replied with a smile, "Yes, we practice every day."
"Huh? What are you all practicing? How did you train? You're so good! Even teenage boys aren't as fast as you."
As they spoke, they had already overtaken many others, and by the turn they could no longer see the farmer's thirst for knowledge.
Qi Yun shouted, "Standing meditation, sitting meditation, sword practice—you're all better than me. If I were farming, I'd be no match for you!"
Xie Zheng walked to Song Chunxue's left, remaining silent.
It's like the Xie Zheng from a couple of days ago was a fake.
Song Chunxue didn't think much of it, nor did she ask Qi Yun and the others if they had used any folk remedies on Xie Zheng.
She had no expectations for most folk remedies, let alone those that took ten years to show results.
Ten years... if you're looking forward to it, it feels like a lifetime.
Don't overthink it, just live in the moment.
Climbing to the top of the mountain, the mountain path winds its way up the summit, the autumn colors deepening, the scenery picturesque.
Qi Yun couldn't help but sigh, "Actually, this place is quite beautiful. The poplar and apricot leaves are turning yellow so early. Autumn colors make people feel old."
He couldn't resist taking out his sword and flying back and forth twice. Wuyou followed him and felt the refreshing autumn breeze, which seemed to cleanse her lungs.
The stubborn donkey wasn't idle either. It ran several hundred meters away on its own, then turned back and slowly walked along with them. Every now and then, it would run up to the barren grassy slope and roll around. It would climb up the narrow, winding path to the highest point and eat a few mouthfuls of the highest grass.
The children herding sheep on the mountain thought the horse would eat the grain, so they ran to shoo it away. They also thought that the horse without a rein might be a wild horse, so they wanted to put a rope on it and take it home. The stubborn donkey played a trick on them, strutted away with its proud gait, kicking up a cloud of yellow dust, which made the children cry out in regret.
“This place is indeed barren, but it can avoid a lot of disasters in times of chaos. They know there isn’t much food to plunder here.” The Moon-Accompanying Immortal stood on the mountain and looked into the distance. “I didn’t expect that there would be so many auspicious places here. If no one cuts the dragon vein, it’s hard to say whether a great figure will be born.”
He pointed to the mountain peak not far away, "Something has been suppressed there, and the dragon vein has been severed."
"There are many dragon veins in the world, what big waves can that little dragon stir up that they wouldn't even let go of?" Song Chunxue asked, puzzled. "Isn't it good for talented people to emerge in large numbers?"
“If some people think it’s bad, then it’s bad, we can’t control that.” The Moon-Companion Immortal sat back in the carriage. “I’m very curious, what does the manor you live in actually look like?”
"Master, don't worry, we'll be there in another hour and a half," Song Chunxue said with a smile. "I've prepared lunch, so we can have it when we get back."
In fact, they appeared at Li Family Village in less than an hour.
The stubborn donkey thought the horse was too slow, so it took half an hour to run faster than a rabbit, scaring people on the road to run to the side of the road from afar.
"Tsk, the feng shui of your place is really mediocre," the Moon-Accompanying Immortal asked. "Where is your home?"
Song Chunxue pointed to a courtyard halfway up the mountain, "Master also knows that my good fortune today is not due to the feng shui of this place."
“That proves you can do even better,” said the Moon-Accompanying Immortal, rising and flying towards the mountaintop. “I’ll go take a look.”
"Alas, Master, wait for me!" Qi Yun also concealed himself and followed closely behind.
Xie Zheng, who was acting as the groom, felt uncomfortable being stared at. "What's wrong?"
Song Chunxue hesitated for a moment, "Lord Xie, do you want to come along too? Otherwise, I won't be able to explain later."
"Explain what?"
Explain why I brought you back.
He frowned, but ultimately got up, mounted his sword, and headed towards the mountaintop.
