Yuanxing Town is a small town near the main peak of Xianshan Mountain.Although it is not near the official road, it is not far from the well-known scenic spot "Kaiyuan Emperor's Sword Test Stone", and many tourists will come to rest their feet.

The name of the town was actually changed by the third mayor, which means "the town of Longxing, Emperor Kaiyuan".

This name has been called for a long time, and many tourists from other places really regard this town as the first foothold of Emperor Kaiyuan after leaving the mountain, and they come here to pay homage.

The locals dismissed it, and the elderly still remembered the old name of "Liuquan Town".Some people even claimed that the sword-testing stone was also a fake—it was just a huge rock that rolled down the mountain and fell into two halves. Later generations far-fetchedly said that Emperor Kaiyuan cut the stone here to try the immortal sword.

However, this handful of negative rumors could not prevent Yuanxing Town from becoming the most prosperous town in a radius of tens of miles.

Although Yuanxing Town is small, the number and specifications of restaurants and restaurants in the town are comparable to the state capital.

Because many high-ranking officials and dignitaries pay homage to the fairy mountains and enjoy the fun of the countryside, they will inevitably miss the delicacies and high beds and soft pillows in the city.

So some businessmen seized the opportunity to build luxurious private buildings to provide the best food and accommodation services for distinguished guests.

Not only businessmen, but also villagers from all over the world were attracted by the wealthy tourists.

Tourists from the city always want to find some mountain specialties and take them back as souvenirs, and they are very generous.

There was a farmer who opened up wasteland, who dug out a gnarled tree root in the field and was about to drag it to burn it. When a passing tourist saw it, he bought it back with a lot of money and made it into a statue.

Therefore, whenever the villagers find unique rocks, flowers and trees in the mountains, or pick up some old objects in their own fields, they will inevitably take them to the market outside Yuanxing Town and set up a stall for a few days, looking forward to In case it catches the eye of a noble tourist, exchange some money to subsidize the family.

There are small collections every day, and most of them are tourists.

The big fair is only held once a month, on the fifteenth day, and it is mainly for local residents.

Daji is divided into several new areas on the basis of Xiaoji: a separate area for raw chickens, ducks, piglets, lambs and other animals; a area for bulk rice and noodles; a area for fresh vegetables and fruits; An area of ​​various groceries.

The districts are distributed along the main road, among which the small roads are connected and arranged in an orderly manner.

The villagers sell their surplus goods on the Daji, and exchange cheap materials and daily necessities.Today is the [-]th day again, Yuanxing Town is full of traffic, and pedestrians are jostling each other.

On the road into the town, a light carriage moved forward slowly.The carriage is a rare semi-enclosed type, with dense bamboo curtains hanging from all sides.

The bamboo curtain is breathable, so that the passengers will not feel stuffy in the hot summer, and it can also block the line of sight. When outsiders look into the car, they can only see a faint shadow.

Sitting in the car were Chu Tianzhu, Ji Xuanling and Cotinus cotinus.

A few days ago, Chu Tianzhu spoke out, and the village head, Mao Sai, suddenly realized that the Thousand Lanterns Festival will be held on the [-]th as scheduled.

Ji Xuanling was looking forward to this very much, he had already arranged his entourage, and reserved a box on the top floor in the best restaurant in Yuanxing Town.

The best place to enjoy the grand sight of Qiandeng Night Walk is not on the top of the mountain, but outside the mountain.The restaurant that Ji Xuanling ordered was three floors high. From the box on the top floor, looking out the window, one could enjoy the view of the peaks of the Immortal Mountains, and the main peak was in the center of the field of vision.

Chu Tianzhu opened the gap in the bamboo curtain to observe the completely different scene outside the window and in the mountains.

Since he came to this world, he has been attracted by the leisurely life and never thought of leaving the mountains.

There are no dark concrete walls that block the line of sight in the mountains, and the sky is high and the land is wide, and the freedom is boundless.It was the best life he could have imagined.

In the embrace of the mountains, his dreams are no longer black and white.

The carriage drove into the town, stopping and going.There are only a lot more pedestrians on the street than in the market.

Businessmen on both sides of the road yelled, people talked and called to each other, children cried and screamed, coachmen drove horses... all kinds of voices came together to form an overwhelming hum.

Chu Tianzhu put down the bamboo curtain.The crowds, the narrow streets and the buildings blocking the view, as well as the rickety carriages gave him some headaches.

Seeing that his complexion was not good, Ji Xuanling asked with concern: "Is the immortal master feeling unwell?"

Chu Tianzhu shook his head: "It's okay, it's just that it has been quiet in the mountains for a long time, and it will take a while to get used to it."

"It's because I didn't think carefully. I just wanted to find a great place to view the scenery, and I forgot that the immortal master Su Xi is pure." Ji Xuanling opened the hidden compartment in the carriage, took out a food box and opened it, which was filled with bright yellow oranges.

He squeezed the orange and squeezed slightly to the sides. The peel of the orange made a soft sound and broke open from the middle, revealing the shiny flesh. The aroma permeated the compartment.

Ji Xuanling handed the broken oranges to Chu Tianzhu: "Master Immortal, please eat some oranges to refresh yourself, we are almost there."

As soon as the words fell, there was a commotion in the shop outside the car. Someone was yelling something loudly, and then a wine jar was thrown out, hitting the white horse pulling the cart.

The horses were frightened and neighed uneasily, the surrounding pedestrians dodged one after another, and the coachman repeatedly whistled to comfort him.

Immediately afterwards, a person came out of the shop.This person with gray hair and a brown bunt was pushed and shoved so that he couldn't stand still, tripped on the threshold, and rolled on the spot.

Fortunately, he was quite clever, curled up to protect his head and face, and was not scratched by the fragments of the wine jar.

A rough and strong man chased after him, and after a few steps, he grabbed the man on the ground by the collar with his big fan-like hands and dragged him off the ground.

"You old man, what are you giving me to drink! Don't think that I am a foreigner, so come and deceive me!"

The gray-haired old man hurriedly begged for mercy: "Don't do anything to a strong man, the old man will refund your drink money."

Ji Xuanling's guards all followed the carriage, and when they realized that the chaos had spread to the carriage, they quickly stepped forward and surrounded the carriage.

The leader of the guards stared at the two people making trouble, and put his right hand on the handle of his waist: "Who is making noise here, don't back down quickly, otherwise don't blame the sword for being blind!"

These guards are all masters trained by the Jingzhou Ji family, with high martial arts skills and a large number of people.

Intimidated by their power, the beating man let go of his hand, muttering incoherently.

The old man got his freedom, adjusted his clothes, and bowed to the carriage: "This strong man has some opinions on the wine of the little old man. The two of us have no intention of offending you, and please forgive me."

Ji Xuanling didn't want to care about them.He took into account that Chu Tianzhu was feeling uncomfortable due to the noise of the crowd, so he just wanted to rush to the hotel as soon as possible.

He said to the guard leader through the bamboo curtain: "It's nothing, let's move on."

The leader put away the knife, and the carriage continued on its way.Passers-by saw that there was no more excitement to watch, and they also dispersed, leaving only the old man and the red-faced strong man standing by the roadside.

A good-natured drinker greeted gloatingly on the second floor: "Old Jiutou, did you come out with your unique secret recipe again? I think if you do this again, the store will be smashed sooner or later!"

While cleaning up the mess on the ground, the old wine head shook his head: "My secret recipe is naturally excellent, but I haven't met anyone who is destined to do so."

The carriage rolled forward and finally reached its destination.Chu Tianzhu and the others got out of the car, and the receptionist at the door brought them into the box with a smile on his face.

As soon as he entered the private room, Chu Tianzhu's eyes were attracted by the big open floor-to-ceiling windows.

Outside the window, the majestic main peak of Xianshan Mountain soars into the sky, and the top of the mountain cannot be seen. The nearby low side peaks lean towards the main peak, as if worshiping.

Standing by the window and looking down, the street is crowded with people.It's just that being in a high place, the sound is not transmitted upwards, which makes people's ears much quieter.

A round table was placed in the middle of the room, and the three of them sat down.After a while, there was a light knock on the door.

Cotinus cotinus went to open the door, and more than a dozen guys in uniforms walked in swiftly.They all held wooden trays in their hands, and there were various dishes in the trays, which filled the whole table in an instant.

Ji Xuanling waved his hand to signal that they don't need to be served, and the guys quietly withdrew.

Chu Tianzhu first noticed a cold food at hand: a small vermilion fruit was contained in an exquisite white jade bowl, and a tall silver cup was next to it, which was filled with translucent juice.He picked up the silver cup, his hand was cold.

A portion of this kind of cold food was placed in front of the three of them, and Ji Xuanling smiled and introduced it to the two masters and apprentices: "In the cup is iced sugarcane pulp, paired with cherries, it is the most appetizing and refreshing."

Chu Tianzhu picked up a cherry and put it in his mouth, the sour taste was refreshing; drinking sugarcane pulp again, it was sweet and delicious.

The manic depression caused by the crowded and noisy along the way dissipated, and he slowly exhaled a foul breath.

On the other side, Cotinus cotinus poured the whole cup of sugarcane pulp into the jade bowl, stirred it evenly with a small spoon, filled it with a few cherries and ate it with the sugarcane pulp: "This is also delicious, shall we grow some cherries when we go back?"

"If it's planted from seeds, it won't last for three to five years, but you won't be able to eat the fruit." Ji Xuanling narrowed his eyes slightly, enjoying the beautiful scenery and delicious food.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the fairy mountain, reflecting the mountain golden.

Three years and five years...

Chu Tianzhu looks at the fairy mountain from afar. He has something to do. He will leave in three years and rush to a predetermined tragic failure.

That was the outcome carefully planned by the nobles of the upper city for the rebel army, and he would never accept it.Xiacheng must be saved, Chu Tianzhu's belief has never wavered.

It's just that today's evening wind is too gentle, covering his eyes and sighing in his ears, making him feel sour when he thinks that he may never return, like unripe cherries.

The setting sun completely disappeared below the horizon, darkness enveloped the mountains, and the shops in the town were lit up one after another.

I don't know if it's a pedestrian or a diner downstairs, and a surprised voice came out: "Huh? What's that on the mountain?"

The crowd looked in the direction he was pointing, and burst into a tidal wave of exclamation.

Among the majestic mountains, there seemed to be a band of light that was winding and moving towards the top of the mountain.

That band of light was the lantern array of hundreds of people led by the head of Huangjia Village.

Villagers make lamp stands out of bamboo poles, each with two rows of horizontal poles, and twenty lanterns are hung on them.Two people carry it on their shoulders in groups, and the groups connect end to end.

They were originally mountain residents, and with the practice these days, they were familiar with the road.Even with a light stand on your back, climbing mountains and ridges is like walking on flat ground.

Seen from a distance, the band of light moves lightly and gracefully through the mountains, which does not seem to be done by human beings at all.

The tourists and residents of the town have never seen such a vision before, and some people were very excited: "It's a fairy! The fairy has appeared!"

The whole Yuanxing Town was in chaos.Some people bowed and murmured wishes after accepting their heads; some people climbed onto the roof and waved desperately to the fairy mountain, hoping to attract the attention of the fairy; even more impatient, they took horses and carts at that time, and wanted to go into the mountain overnight to find out.

The village chief's plan succeeded, and this time, Huangjia Village is really going to be famous.

The author has something to say: "The sugarcane pulp is cold from the silver cup, and Zhu Shixiang shines red in the jade bowl."
