Chapter 24 Beauty Ridge
"My cave is completed, and I would like to invite you to a banquet in three days." Gong Mengbi said with a smile.
Granny Shi laughed, "It's rare that Jin Chan is willing to share Wu Huan Peak with you."
Although Gong Mengbi didn't come to say it specifically, there weren't many things around here that could be hidden from Grandma Shi.
She had heard that Gong Mengbi had been invited back by Jin Chan.
Gong Mengbi smiled bitterly: "He misunderstood me. He always thought that I didn't want Wu Huanfeng because I had bigger plans and wanted to use the life-saving grace to plot against his life."
"How could such a thing happen?" Granny Shi was also surprised. "Then will you host a banquet for him when you open your mansion?"
Gong Mengbi said, "After all, we live on the same mountain, so naturally we should invite him. If we don't, who knows what suspicions he will harbor."
Granny Shi said, "I'm afraid he doesn't want to come."
Gong Mengbi didn't think so, "No, he will definitely come."
Granny Shi didn't dwell on this, but asked, "Who are you going to invite to the banquet?"
Gong Mengbi said: "You, Quexian, Jinchan, there are not many people, please bring some younger people to liven up the atmosphere."
Granny Shi shook her head. "What's the big deal? Since you've established your residence here, it would be a good thing for you to see more of your fellow Taoists around here. You can even invite the three sisters from Beauty Ridge and the Yaksha ghost from the Small Holy Temple."
"If the Red Feathered Serpent wasn't in seclusion, we could invite it over. Besides, there's the Wangxiang in the Jade Belt River, so it's a neighbor, so we could invite it over too. Wouldn't that make it more lively?"
Gong Mengbi said, "It's lively, but I don't know your temper. I'm afraid it will ruin the good banquet."
Granny Shi said, "It's precisely because I don't know his temperament that I have to choose a good day to invite him. Otherwise, it will be even more difficult to get along with him in the future."
Gong Mengbi mused, "Alright, we have to deal with each other."
Grandma Shi's suggestion was a good one, and she was also highly respected in this area. Even if others didn't have a good face towards Gong Mengbi, they wouldn't make things difficult for him for the sake of Grandma Shi, the old fox.
Such a plan is also very painstaking.
Gong Mengbi had to accept the favor. In fact, having a senior like Granny Shi to guide him did save him a lot of worry.
Gong Mengbi left the invitation and went back to Shouyue Tower to draft a few new invitations as Shi Granny had said, and invited his fellow practitioners nearby one by one.
The fellow travelers on Meiren Ridge, Quexian said they were three wandering souls, and Granny Shi said they were three sisters.
Gong Mengbi entered Meiren Ridge facing the new moon. The peach blossoms on the ridge were in full bloom and were extremely passionate.
"The peach tree is young and lush, its flowers are bright and beautiful.
The son of Zhi is married, and he is suitable for his family.
..."
There is a moving singing voice floating from the depths of the peach blossoms, like a silver bell, quite beautiful and joyful.
Gong Mengbi followed the singing and gradually felt a sense of deep ghostliness.
The peach blossoms are so tender and beautiful, but surrounded by this ghostly aura, there is a sense of desolation and decay that has long been uninhabited.
The entanglement of life and death, and the contrast between beauty and decay, is actually a different kind of beauty and sentiment.
Deep in the peach blossoms, there are indeed three sisters.
The jade wrist rests on the fragrant cheek, and peach blossoms bloom on the face.
The three sisters were dressed in gorgeous clothes, with light purple, gouache, and goose yellow in varying shades, revealing their snow-white arms and proud figures.
Her thick black hair was tied into a bun, decorated with gold and silver hairpins, and her temples were embellished with peach blossoms.
With a face as rosy as a peach and plum, and lips painted red, she is both a charming beauty and a passionate and seductive ghost.
The sexy ghost in purple clothes leaned on the bluestone with a seductive posture.
The sexy ghost in pink is singing, her voice is soft and clear.
The sexy ghost in yellow clothes danced to the song, looking very graceful.
As Gong Mengbi approached, he heard the woman in purple, who was leaning on the stone platform, say with a smile, "Zhiruo, Jiaying, a guest has arrived."
The woman in powder stopped singing and chuckled softly, covering her mouth with her hands: "Jiaying, your figure is so attractive."
The woman in yellow was stretching her arms and turning gracefully. Upon hearing this, she snorted coldly, stretched out her hand, and put on her coat over her gauze dress: "Who is peeping? Why don't you come out?"
Gong Mengbi said in a clear voice, "I am Gong Mengbi from Wuhuan Peak. I am simply here to visit my fellow Taoists. I happened to see you three enjoying the flowers. I did not intend to spy on you. Please forgive me."
Gong Mengbi walked out of the peach blossom forest, stepping silently on the weeds and dead leaves.
He has a handsome face, a pair of blue eyes that are both cold and warm. His fox tail sways gently behind him, brushing away the night and pushing away the ghostly aura.
"It turns out to be a fox." Jiaying glanced at him. She was a little annoyed at first, but when she looked at that face, half of her anger turned into shame and anger.
Zhiruo leaned on her shoulder with a smile and whispered, "What a handsome fox."
Only the eldest sister on the bluestone had sat up straight. She asked with a smile, "I remember that the fellows from Wuhuan Peak lived in seclusion and rarely interacted with others, but it seems they are not fox spirits?"
Gong Mengbi said, "You are talking about the Golden Toad. He and I now share Wuhuan Peak. He cultivates in Jingtan, and I cultivate on the mountain. I have only been here for a short time and have just opened a cave, so I would like to invite all of you fellow Taoists to visit my humble abode and attend the banquet to celebrate the cave's completion."
Zhiruo came to take the invitation and handed it to Sister Ziyi.
The eldest sister glanced at the invitation and smiled. "My name is Qiongfang, and this is my second sister Zhiruo, and my third sister Jiaying. It's rare to have new Taoist friends settle down here to practice cultivation. I wonder who you're going to invite to the banquet?"
Gong Mengbi said, "I have invited Granny Shi from my family, the Sparrow Fairy from Zhuling, the Golden Toad from Tongshan, the Yaksha Ghost from the Small Holy Temple, the Wangxiang from Yudai River, and you three."
Qiongfang smiled and said, "Since all the fellows nearby have invited us, we will definitely go."
"Thank you for your visit." Gong Mengbi bowed and said goodbye.
Zhiruo waved at him, her eyes full of charm, which was particularly seductive.
Gong Mengbi just smiled, and his big tail swam in the night and disappeared into the depths of the peach blossoms.
After he left, Qiongfang handed the invitation to her two sisters and said, "He is an extraordinary person, so please don't treat him lightly."
Zhiruo and Jiaying looked at the invitation. The words were like flying clouds, like foxes and phoenixes. They had a rare fairy air, as well as a sinister demonic aura.
The two young ladies were also well-versed in poetry and literature, and when they saw the calligraphy, they were full of praise.
"So handsome, so kind-hearted, what a perfect match." Zhiruo fantasized.
But Jiaying knocked her on the head and said, "Besides all that filthy stuff, what else is there in your head?"
Zhiruo snorted and pouted: "It's not impossible that the ghost and fox are one family."
Qiongfang had already laid down on the bluestone again: "Then go and seduce him and see if he will give in."
Zhiruo stuck out her tongue: "I don't want to, she's so pretty, she must be a trouble-free person."
"Hehe, you just have a clever mouth. You can only talk but not do." Jiaying laughed.
Zhiruo got angry and came over to hit her.
Jiaying smiled and dodged, chasing and escaping, and started playing around the bluestone.
Qiongfang yawned and closed her eyes to sleep in the quiet moonlight.
The three sisters of Meirenling and the yaksha ghosts of the Small Holy Temple are all evil spirits, so the invitations must be delivered at night.
Gong Mengbi, scented with the fragrance of peach blossoms, went to the small holy temple.
This big furry tail is not very fond of the gloomy and ghostly aura, or the smell of rotten wood, but it loves the faint and bitter fragrance of peach blossoms, and it easily gets all over it.
