However, Yu Qinghuan felt numb and tiptoed to retreat.

"Princess." Changsun Tao called lightly.

Yu Qinghuan walked over in one step and said with a smile: "King Qi, what a coincidence, why didn't you wait for me to come with you?"

Changsun Tao looked up at the tree full of golden-ball-like persimmons and said, "Didn't you sneak here alone without waiting for me? I knew you were such a virtuous person, so I stopped you here early." , lest these persimmon trees planted by the king myself be ruined by you."

Changsun Tao took off the basket on his back and handed it to Yu Qinghuan who lowered his head and poked his fingers: "Go up and pick the ones that are already ripe. You don't need too much, half a beetroot is enough."

"Why don't you go?" Yu Qinghuan pouted.

Changsun Tao was leaning against the tree and said, "I am recovering from my injuries and it is not appropriate to use Qinggong. Princess, you are not so cruel and insist on me picking persimmons, are you?"

Yu Qinghuan glared at him, reluctantly took the basket and carried it on her back, and climbed up the persimmon tree. Her slender and light body stepped lightly on the branches, reaching out to reach for the plump and crystal clear flowers. persimmons and then carefully put them into the basket.

Seeing Chang Sun Tao leaning against the tree, looking like he was doing nothing, she picked off a ripe soft persimmon and threw it towards Chang Sun Tao.

Chang Sun Tao casually rolled up his sleeves, and the persimmon turned around and flew towards Yu Qinghuan again, hitting Yu Qinghuan's head immediately, and the pulp was all over his head.

Yu Qinghuan gritted his teeth, picked a few more and threw them away, but he completely dodged them.

"Princess," Changsun Tao looked at the rotten persimmons all over the ground with distress, "These persimmon trees are my king's hard work, don't waste them at will."

"If you don't do anything well, you have to mess with a few persimmon trees. King Qi, what's wrong with you?" Yu Qinghuan said this, but after all, he didn't waste any more persimmons.

Changsun Tao picked a grass stalk and played with it in his hand: "I'm used to being high up. Sometimes I want to experience rural life. Taking care of the flowers and plants, planting a few trees that can see the results is also a different kind of comfortable life. If it weren't for Xie Yun's stop Now, I also want to plant cabbage, melons and beans."

Normally, when a nobleman from Tianhuang does this kind of thing, he is probably too busy to do it, but when Changsun Tao does this kind of thing, Yu Qinghuan understands and feels a little distressed.

Although the layout of Prince Qi's Mansion is exquisite and beautiful, every flower, plant and tree is the result of the careful work of skilled craftsmen. If you look at it too much, you will feel tired and lifeless, but what you plant is different. Let a seed, or The process of a sapling growing is sometimes a process of witnessing life.

Knowing when you will die gives you a different perception of life.

In this way, these persimmon trees are not as simple as hard work. Yu Qinghuan felt that the persimmons in his hands suddenly became heavy, as if they had touched a fragile heart.

"King Qi, half of the beetroot has been harvested, and there are still many left on the tree. What are you going to do?" Yu Qinghuan asked.

Changsun Tao pointed to the old clothes hanging on the branches and said: "Tear off all those clothes, and the remaining fruits will not be wasted."

Yu Qinghuan used Qinggong and quickly walked between the fruit trees. He quickly took off all the clothes hanging on the branches and landed gracefully in front of Changsun Tao.

Chirping, a burst of bird sounds came, chirping into a rhyme. Yu Qinghuan turned his head and saw many birds stopped on the branches.Pecking at ripe fruits.

"What a pity." Yu Qinghuan said regretfully.

Changsun Tao said nonchalantly: "What is there to regret about benefiting living beings?"

Yu Qinghuan pouted: "Whatever you say makes sense. The fog is getting thicker and thicker. Let's go back!"

"There's no rush," Changsun Tao said without any intention of leaving, "You'll know if you wait a little longer."

Yu Qinghuan put down the basket and sat on the ground to rest. She took out a persimmon from the basket, gently removed the skin, and waited patiently while eating.

Just after eating one persimmon, there was movement on the tree. It turned out that at some point, several colorful snakes climbed up the persimmon tree and meandered quietly towards the birds that were enjoying their meal.

The fog was so thick that the birds were so absorbed in eating that they didn't realize the danger was approaching.

After a few "squeaks", a bird was bitten by the snake. The other birds did not notice it yet and continued to feast on it, unaware that their companions were slowly being swallowed by the snake.

"Don't you mean to benefit living beings? I think it's quite cruel." Yu Qinghuan said.

Changsun Tao said: "I planted this persimmon tree, so that I can eat persimmons, birds can eat persimmons, snakes can eat persimmons, and snakes can be eaten by birds... If you can achieve multiple things with one stone, how can it not benefit all living beings?"

Yu Qinghuan rolled her eyes at him: "Your Majesty, I find that you have become more eloquent recently."

Changsun Tao touched his chin: "Maybe he has stimulated some potential recently."

Just as Yu Qinghuan was about to say something, a ball of white hair flew out from the thick fog and bit a bamboo leaf seven inches away. Before the snake could react, it used its two front paws to press the snake's head and tail. live.

It turned out that it was a snow-white mink, slightly larger than a squirrel. It had white fur without any impurities, a pair of eyes as dark as obsidian, a pink nose and front paws, and a pair of half-folded The ears and long beard make him look cute and naive.

"Diao'er?" Yu Qinghuan pulled Chang Sun Tao's sleeve in surprise, "It's actually Diao'er!"

Changsun Tao said: "This little thing is very cunning. It's up to you whether you can catch him or not."

"After going around for so long, it turns out that picking persimmons is fake, but catching minks is real." Yu Qinghuan threw away the persimmons in his hands, took out a small porcelain bottle from under his sleeve, and gently opened the lid.

The mink who was eating a venomous snake in the tree smelled it, immediately put the venomous snake down and rushed towards Yu Qinghuan quickly.

Changsun Tao stood up straight and said solemnly: "What a fool! If you are bitten by it, even the Great Luo Immortal will not be able to save you!"

Yu Qinghuan didn't take it seriously and still stood there holding the porcelain bottle. Diaoer flew to Yu Qinghuan, hesitated for a moment, and then quickly rushed to Yu Qinghuan's shoulder.

Changsun Tao watched this scene nervously, pinched a leaf with the fingertips of his right hand, and was ready to go.

"Don't worry," Yu Qinghuan poured the pills in the porcelain bottle into the palm of his hand, and slowly stretched out towards Diao Er standing on his shoulder, "This is the animal training technique my grandfather taught me. The pills in my hand are Diao Er's favorite. As long as the mink smells this, it will not attack people easily."

The mink smelled the fragrance of the pills, and slowly stretched out its two small front paws. When it touched the pill, it hugged it suddenly, and then stuffed it into its mouth at lightning speed.

Yu Qinghuan tried to touch its head with her hands. It wanted to resist, but because of the smell of Yu Qinghuan's hand, it hugged Yu Qinghuan's hand tightly and sucked greedily again and again.

"Have you been prepared?" Changsun Tao put down his guard and asked Yu Qinghuan.

Yu Qinghuan's heart skipped a beat. Changsun Tao had already prepared what he said. Naturally, he was not talking about the pill, but the whole process of hunting mink.

"You figured it out," Yu Qinghuan touched the mink's little head, "Yes, ever since I was kidnapped in the palace, I have wanted to tame a mink. Minks are very intelligent. If used properly, , it will be more useful than a dog. Once danger is approaching, it will give a timely warning."

Changsun Tao said: "What's the use of just giving an early warning? If you meet someone who is a thousand times more powerful than you, even if Diao'er gives an early warning, it will be useless."

Yu Qinghuan made a weird gesture with his right hand, and the mink rushed to Changsun Tao's shoulder and looked at his carotid artery nervously.

"King Qi, you can't avoid it. How many people in this world are your opponents?" Yu Qinghuan said, stretching out his hand in front of Diao'er. The snow-white little guy swayed along Yu Qinghuan's hand. , climbed back onto her shoulders.

Changsun Tao nodded and said: "It's really useful. When I get back, I will reward it with all the snake galls in my collection."

Yu Qinghuan picked up the basket on his back and walked back to the villa, asking, "Is this how you catch snakes?"

Changsun Tao said: "It's very convenient, isn't it?"

Yu Qing smiled happily without saying anything, and rubbed Diao'er's little head with her face.

"What do you know?" Changsun Tao suddenly said, "What do you know about those people who kidnapped you?"
