Green Immortals

Xifeng Mansion has a population of 20, with beautiful scenery and pleasant mountains and rivers.It is only fifty miles away from Kyoto, and there is an endless stream of officials and merchants.The government and the people get along harmoniously, and no major incidents have occurred in recent years.

There is also a Xifeng Mansion in Xifeng Mansion, but this mansion is not where the elders in Xifeng City live, but a Mo family mansion.How not to name the family name plaque with the surname?Now, it's time to talk about Mo's family affairs.

The Mo family has three sons, Mo Lian, Mo Xifeng, and Mo Gushen.The eldest son is smart, studious and talented.The third son is not good at literature but good at martial arts, and he has not yet returned from Wuzhe Mountain.

The remaining two sons, hey, he was a healthy young master when he was young, but he got a serious illness when he was five years old. Since then, he has been ill and never seen the whereabouts of the second son of the Mo family. The expert carried him away. As for where to carry him, he probably had to ask Mo Qingsong, the Patriarch of the Mo family.It was because the second son of the Mo family was in poor health, so he changed the plaque of the Mo family mansion to Xifeng Mansion, and changed the second son's original name, Mo Feng, to Mo Xifeng, hoping to transfer the second son's weakness. Xifeng's condition didn't improve much, but he has been taking care of him slowly, which shows that the change of the Mo family was not in vain.

It was spring, and the sky was shining brightly. There was a large forest in the west of Xifeng City. The trees were lush and lush. It was a good season for growth. When the wind came to the east, the top leaves of the trees were blown like layers. The blue waves rushed to the distance.

While a small brown figure was up and down, a closer look revealed that it was a [-]-year-old child, shivering and standing in a lush tree branch, raising his hand to reach up to a gray-brown bird's nest, thinking it was a child greedy for food. , trying to catch bird eggs on a tree.In front of the forest stands a big house, with white walls and black tiles, it is very imposing, the white walls are more than ten meters high, it is intimidating.

Seeing that the child couldn't reach it, he rested on the branch for a while and then went to reach it again, but no matter what he couldn't stretch his hand up a little bit, the child was no longer lower than the ground, and the wind blew the forest away. The sound of rushing made one worry that the small body was blown off by the wind.

The child tried to stand up while holding on to the branch next to him. After all, he was not very old, his legs trembled all the time and he didn't know how the child climbed up.

At this time, the wind stopped, and Xiao Brown Yi barely stood on the branch of the tree and slowly stretched out towards the bird's nest, but she caught it. When she took a closer look, she saw three white and round birds lying in the brown bird's nest. eggs.The child was overjoyed, and looked at the scene under his feet. The child quickly held the branch tightly, looked at the bird's eggs for a while, and stared at the bottom for a while, seemingly hesitating and thinking heavily, and finally saw her close her eyes. Eyes, slowly squatting down against the tree, while carefully holding the three eggs in his arms, looking for the way down.

The wind picked up again, brushing gently over the little girl's cheeks, but it couldn't stop the sweat from her face.Suddenly, a corner of the robe was glimpsed out of the corner of her eyes, the girl stopped her searching eyes and looked forward, she was standing relatively high, so she could see the scene inside the house through the high wall of the white mansion, which was different from the monotonous outside of the house. The white walls, the figures in the house are hurrying, wearing flowers and willows, coming and going constantly.

I saw that the male and female envoys inside were all wearing cotton clothes, clean and tidy without a trace of dirt.There is no brilliant expression on the face, like a blunt mask. Looking at it in a blink of an eye, the courtyard is deep, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a beautiful building.

The house is like a world, with mountains and rivers, bridges and roads. You can enjoy all kinds of scenery at home, but compared to the outside world, it can only be regarded as a pocket-sized scene.

The girl looked into the depths, and suddenly saw an independent courtyard on the left, which was not like the other courtyards where people were floating around, and looked a lot more deserted. There was a big tree planted in that courtyard. Some plants with little white flowers can't be named, but they are also interesting to see.

Suddenly, there was a gray shadow swaying under the tree, and he stared at it closely, but it turned out to be a slender child, wearing gray clothes, the material was the same as those of the envoys, turned around and saw that he was also seven or eight years old The girl blinked her eyes, and was about to take a closer look, but the little figure disappeared. Looking at the landscape of the big house for some reason, the girl only had one sentence in her heart, the surrounded trees, somehow I actually felt a little pity for that little gray figure, but the child turned around and forgot about the fork, concentrating on hugging the tree and trying to slide down along it.

The child with a thick tree body had to hold on to the rough tree trunk tightly, counting the grains and sliding down. The person slid down smoothly, but it was a pity that one of the eggs seemed to be broken during the process of sliding down. The girl It was a pity, and he dropped the broken egg and walked eastward.

The girl walked happily through the streets holding the egg, when the aunt who sold tofu stopped her, "Ah Lu! Be careful not to drop it!" Ah Lu turned her head and smiled, "No way! Aunt Fat!" said After all, he quickened his pace again, turned around the pharmacy, saw the familiar gray door, and stepped across it.

He hurriedly looked for the figure of his mother, "Mother! Mother! Look at what Ah Lu is looking for? Come and see!" He took a bowl from the empty kitchen and put the two eggs, and impatiently headed towards the living room He went and opened the doors one after another, but unfortunately he did not find a familiar figure.

Ah Lu scratched her head and walked towards the bedroom, she saw her mother, she hurried forward two steps, "Mother, look, what did Ah Lu find?" Turning around, she wanted someone to wipe away the sadness between the woman's brows, she pulled the corner of her lower lip, "Ah Lu is really capable, let's go to the woods to the west again."

Ah Lu just wanted to smile, but seeing her mother's frowning, she lowered the corners of her mouth, and asked worriedly: "Mother, what's the matter? Daddy, is he alright?" The woman sighed. , stroking Ah Lu's head, she couldn't help crying, watching her daughter put her sleeves up in a panic, and melancholy melted into her eyes.

"Ah Lu, your father's leg injury is gradually improving, but the steward in Xifeng Mansion denied your father's medical expenses, saying that we had already taken it, but since your father was injured, we have been paying for it. I'm busy, I haven't been to Xifeng Mansion, let alone to get money, hey, what can I do now, your father is short of money to see a doctor!"

The woman's voice was deep and deep, as if she contained thousands of grievances and depression in her chest. She glanced at the inner room covered by the curtain and could only suppress her voice and confide in a low voice to her daughter who was below her knees. The woman wiped the corners of her eyes not to make her daughter sad , took her daughter's hand and looked at her clean face, staring at Ah Lu's black eyes,

"Now my mother can only go to the West Wind Mansion to find out whether it is the West Wind Mansion's power or there is a misunderstanding in it. Ah Lu, would you like to accompany your mother?"

Ah Lu looked at the bamboo curtain being shaken by the wind, looked back into her mother's helpless and painful eyes and replied, "Ah Lu is willing."

The harmony and well-being of the officials and the people in Xifeng Mansion in recent years is not just a matter of lip service. Since a few years ago, a lord who judged Qingming came and brought more businessmen and nobles to settle in Xifeng Mansion. The streets are also very lively.

Based on this point, I believe that Xifeng Mansion will not do too much. Hearing what her mother said, Ah Lu kept calming down. On the way, she saw Fat Aunt again. Fat Aunt heard that we were going to Xifeng Mansion to ask for injuries. Fei directly beckoned us to come to her small stall to drink a bowl of tofu flower before we went. The fat aunt sat beside us and said with a smile: "Since it is to collect Alu's father's medical expenses, there is no rush at this time, eat it." Let's go after breakfast, and look at Lu, she's so skinny these days~!"

Fat Auntie's hand was fleshy, and it was very comfortable to caress Ah Lu's face. Alu rubbed it happily, and Fat Aunt laughed twice, "This child is really cute, it hurts."

The woman looked at Ah Lu's fair face and smiled, "Fat Aunt, it's getting late, we should go early, the big family has a lot of rules!"

Ah Lu looked at the smiling faces of her mother and Past Wuchang, finished sucking the bean curd in a hurry, wiped her mouth and was about to stand up, but was held down by a pair of hands, that hand took out a black linen handkerchief from her pocket, and wiped it for Ah Lu Wiping her mouth, she put the handkerchief back again, patted Ah Lu's shoulder, and looked at Ah Lu's mother, "The girl can go now, I will help you take care of your house, don't worry!" The woman was grateful She smiled at her, then took Ah Lu's hand and walked towards the tall family standing to the west.

Xifeng Mansion is worthy of being a big family, even the gate is several times bigger than ordinary houses, there are two servants waiting in front of the gate and the gate is open, the red lantern hanging in front of the gate swings with the wind, Walking a few steps in front of the gate, you can see the towering houses in Xifeng Mansion. In front of the house, there is a road paved with stone bricks that is specially opened up to the gate, about three meters wide.

Ah Lv followed her mother to the door, "Could you tell us, brother, that Uncle Niu's wife and daughter in the kitchen are here to collect the injury fee." The boy looked at the woman's neat blouse and walked away. He went down the steps and asked, "But you're here for the woodcutter who was injured a few days ago?"

A Lu Niang Hu hurriedly replied: "Exactly. Could you please pass it on to me?" The little brother rolled his eyes strangely, looked at A Lu again, and then hurriedly helped the woman up the steps , glanced at the vermilion-painted doorpost.

Pulling the woman aside and frowning, she said: "It's not good for Ma'am to stand in front of this door all the time, so I put it aside and wait for a while, but didn't I hear that the injury fee was paid to you a long time ago? Why? This matter?"

Mrs. Hu helped some strands of hair falling from her temples, raised her head and stared at the thin servant in front of her with straightforward eyes.

The young fellow was startled, and hurriedly comforted the woman, "Madam, don't mind, I thanked Uncle Niu for his help before, even if Xiao Song called sister-in-law, it would not be an exaggeration for Xiao Song to call her sister-in-law. Seeing that sister-in-law seems to be quite worried, it is better to tell Xiao Song Listening might help a little!"

Ah Lu looked at the boy with a worried expression, and her mother suddenly relaxed her shoulders, not like the tense feeling of standing upright all the way, but her mother's voice seemed a little bit aggrieved,

"A few days ago, someone came to the house to ask about Da Niu's situation, but he left before he could sit down for a cup of tea. He didn't mention money at all. I didn't expect to wait and see these days, but I didn't see him The whereabouts of the injury fee, but I don’t know when the injury fee has grown legs and came to our house? You can’t wait for Uncle Niu’s leg injury, so I had to find **** to ask the manager. "

Having said that, the grievances of the past few days turned into hot tears from the corners of his eyes, which had already soaked the kerchief, and the well-dressed servant ignored the stained clothes and wiped away the tears of the woman with his sleeves, and hurriedly said: "Madam, sister-in-law Don't worry, since you didn't get that Xiaosong, you just have to find a way to go to Manager Zhang to ask for help, it's not worth it if you break your body from crying."

Seeing her mother crying, Ah Lu was stunned for a while, she just patted her mother on the back, and then said a few words that it's not good to cry badly.Niu regained his strength, but felt embarrassed to be rude in front of the younger generation. Just as he was about to say a few words, he heard a clear and powerful voice coming from the vermilion gate on the right,

"Who is making noise in front of Xifeng Mansion?"

Xiao Song hurriedly straightened his back and ran towards the door, only to hear Xiao Song say in a respectful and polite alto voice, "Guan Zhang, it's all right, it was Uncle Niu's wife and daughter who came to the door a few days ago to collect the injury fee. "

The steward paused for a moment, and then he heard his clear voice say: "Didn't the people in the house send the money to the injured for the incident a few days ago? Why did someone come to collect it?"

Ah Lu leaned towards the door and looked inside, and saw two people standing not far away, at a glance, he saw Xiao Song who lowered his head slightly, Xiao Song had a delicate face, his fingers were fair, I heard from my mother that Xiao Song's elder brother was still a rich man As for his young master, it's just that he didn't know what happened to him and became a servant in Xifeng Mansion.

"Oh? Who is that little guy, hehehehe, what are you doing in front of the door!"

A-lu was startled by that hearty voice, and then she was embraced by her mother in her arms. A-lu was hugged by her mother in a dazed state. As soon as she grabbed her mother's neck, she heard Xiaosong say: "This They are Uncle Niu's wife and daughter."

"Oh? Let me see, hehe, I never thought that a rough man like Uncle Niu would have such a good-looking child."

Ah Lu didn't hear anything else clearly, but she heard that her father was a rough man, and she was a little unhappy at the time, so she turned around and said, "You said that my father is a big man...you..."

Seeing the owner of the clear voice standing in front of him, Ah Lu, unconsciously lowered his voice by two tunes, which was very strange to the ears of others, but it made the steward laugh out loud, and couldn't stop praising Ah Lu. Mother Green gave birth to a clever and lovely child.

Only Ah Lu knew why she didn't refute those people's words at that time. She was really angry at that time and wanted to talk about the manager, but when she saw a person with a straightforward voice like that, she suddenly felt that the manager might not be She didn't speak ill of her father. On the contrary, the uneasiness of following her mother along the way seemed to disappear when she saw the steward with a small beard. She felt that the steward was a good person, and she also felt that she followed her mother It will be done well, so she smiled at the kind and chubby middle-aged steward, and the steward seemed to bend his eyes even deeper.

Xiao Song told the matter to Zhang Guanshi, and Zhang Guanshi pinched the beard under his lips slightly, "This matter is too big or small for someone with a foreign surname to talk about it. It might be better to tell Butler Mo that there may be a way."

"Butler Mo?" Mother looked at Xiaosong earnestly, and Xiaosong smiled, "I've met Butler Mo a few times, but it's not like that. Sister-in-law will talk about it and there will be a turnaround."

Guanshi Zhang stared at Xiaosong, coughed twice, "Hmm! It's really not big or small, what's wrong with right and wrong? Xiaosong said carefully, remember, remember."

Xiao Song hurriedly lowered his head, but he saw that the corners of his mouth were bent when he lowered his head. After being scolded by Guan Shi, he hurriedly continued: "Xiao Song is confused. Zhang Guan is such a shrewd person. Thank you, Guan Shi. Teaching and carrying!"

The steward didn't show any anger, he just accepted Xiao Song's praise with a smile.Ah Lu was confused by what these two people said, but in a blink of an eye, she suddenly saw a familiar face. The owner of that face was hiding at the round stone door with mung bean eyes squinting. Seeing, the eyeballs suddenly widened when they turned around, and they squinted into crescent eyes. It turned out that they saw Ah Lu's mother, and in a blink of an eye, the owner of that face shrank his face into the wall Shrinking, as if looking for something, eagerly.

Ah Lu bit her nails, and suddenly remembered that face was the servant of Xifeng Mansion who had come to visit her father at that time!It's that person!Since the words she was eager to express could not be formed into sentences in her mind, Ah Lu could only look at the figure of the man walking further and further away and grabbed her hair anxiously. He shook his hand and shouted, "Lu! What are you doing!"

Ah Lu turned her head to the side, pointed at the man's back with her loosened finger, and stammered, "That man. Father. Been. Home."

Hu walked along the child's hand and just saw the figure in the gray robe, his pupils shrank, pointed at the person and said: "That is the servant from the Xifeng Mansion who came to my house at that time, saying he came to visit, but he didn't go until he left." I didn't even mention my husband's injury! It's him! It's him!"

She felt that the gray shadow in front of her eyes disappeared Xiaosong's figure in a flash, Ah Lu looked at the figure that was chasing after the mung bean eye, and felt that Xiaosong's brother was extremely mighty.While he was in a daze, he heard the steward Zhang say to his mother, "Madam, don't worry, if it is found out to be true, Madam won't be wronged."

Xiaosong chased after him from the West Flower Court, but the black shadow hurriedly ran towards Mrs. Yun's courtyard. Before entering the west chamber, he caught up with that person, but he didn't expect that person to speed up his pace and stepped into the courtyard where his wife lived without hesitation. There was no way to keep him back, so Xiao Song had no choice but to run in with him.

When entering the courtyard gate, one can see a major feature of Mrs. Yun's residence, which is the house with a long corridor.

Picking up the windshield curtain with purple beads, you can see that the long corridor is covered with green vines, which are grape vines. The brown branches are connected with sparse green leaves, and the long corridor that can be seen at a glance has a special artistic conception.

It's just that the people passing by in a hurry at this moment have no intention of admiring it, and only feel that the surrounding greenery is very chaotic.Xiao Song is not afraid of offending Madam, but he is originally a member of the Outer Mansion and only works as a guard outside the door, so it is wrong to step into the inner courtyard now, so how could it be necessary to make a fuss with Madam Yun Er? After thinking about Ah Lu's mother and son, they felt that even if they really disturbed Madam, they would have to pay for Brother Hu's medicine, so they walked to the end of the corridor in the blink of an eye.

The end of the promenade is tightly entangled with vines, and the branches hang down to the ground. It is obvious that it is the wife who is favored by the master, but no one has tidied up the vines on the corridor, which looks wanton and messy.Pulling the loose branches aside, it looks weird and unusual.

Ah Lu couldn't stop twisting her body after seeing that person, Hu had no choice but to put him down and continue discussing with the manager, Ah Lu stared at the place where Xiao Song left with her round eyes open, and turned around. The body ran towards that direction.

Stepping through the courtyard gate, the forest is dense, and the vine-wrapped porch pillars seem to be attached to life force, pushing the curtain door of Mrs. Yuner further, Ah Lu stopped and rubbed her eyes vigorously, afraid that she might be dazzled.

Brushing past the vines, the gray road kept receding, and a long corridor appeared in front of it. Ah Lu was tired, leaning against a vine and dangling to rest, not wanting to make a sound, the green branches broke, and thick juice flowed out from the cracks.Suddenly all the branches seemed to be blown by the wind, and the trees beside the Langfang made rustling sounds, which made the vines quiet and weird.

Ah Lu hurriedly found a fork and ran, but after running for a long time, she managed to get rid of the life-seeking vines. This is a wide place, and there is a big leafy green tree in the middle, thicker than the houses in the distance. Tall, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and a thick trunk.

Ah Lu walked towards the tree, the wind blew through the tree and there was a rustling sound, she couldn't help speeding up and ran over, the sun was just right, and when the wind was just slightly, Ah Lu closed her eyes slightly.Sensing something in front of her, Ah Lu hugged it like she jumped up and climbed up various types of tree trunks with traces of ancient times countless times.

But it doesn't feel the same as usual but slippery?soft?

"Cackling..." There was a strange laugh, and countless goosebumps appeared behind him. Ah Lu stiffened her body, but her hands hugged tighter because of tension, and she mustered up the courage to quietly open one eye. There was a vast expanse of whiteness, I looked up and saw a white man with black hair standing behind his back, the voice came from there.

"Hehehehe... The ignorant child dares to offend your monster grandpa, just as grandpa is short of snacks in the afternoon." Ah Lu opened his eyes, and the white robe turned around slowly after finishing speaking.

The author has something to say:

This, in fact, the hero has appeared a long time ago, but now his memory is damaged and he can't remember who he is.
