Peach

The peacocks on Yushan Mountain all have the surname Lan, probably because these feathered peacocks are all blue peacocks.The Peacock Clan is in charge of the Peacock Ling, and each landlord is the patriarch of the Lan Clan.

On this day, the patriarch Lan Xu was suddenly called to Chaofeng Palace.

"What's going on here?" Palace Mistress Dan Su asked him, pointing to the dying white bird on the hem of his clothes.

"This..." The patriarch of the Lan clan was startled. The little bird was as big as a palm, with a snow-white body, several layers of wing feathers on its wings, and a handful of darker-colored fluff on the top of its head. It was a baby peacock at a glance.

"You are human beings, not birds. For such a small child, what do you mean by throwing it away!" Dan Su was a little angry. The maid picked it up in the bamboo forest in the back mountain, and it was obviously thrown away.

"Your subordinate will die, so we must immediately find out who abandoned the child." Lan Xu knelt on the ground and took the little white bird with both hands.

The snow-white little peacock opened his eyes and glanced at him, then slowly closed them, his body still trembling slightly.Too young to leave the lukewarm down feathers, coupled with long-term hunger, if the palace lord hadn't found out, the child might not survive today.

In the blue peacock family, there are occasional white white birds.When Yuren was still uncivilized, this kind of white son was considered unlucky.Now the feather people have been civilized, but some people still can't stand the ignorance, and they drown or throw away the white peacock after giving birth.

Dan Su gave Lan Xu two Polygonatum worms to feed the frail child.If you don't eat for a long time, eating rough food suddenly will damage the stomach of the little peacock. The soft and fragrant Polygonatum worm is the best food.

"The palace lord rewarded you with Polygonatum worms!" Lan Xu's wife was very pleasantly surprised when she saw the white and tender worms in his hand, and she reached out to pick them up.Polygonatum worms are only eaten by phoenixes, and are rarely given to subordinates.

"Ah oh..." A small white head popped out from the skirt, startling her.

Knowing that worms are children's food, Lan Xu's wife didn't say much, took the worms, cooked them, and slowly fed them to the little peacock.Lan Xu recruited people from the clan and questioned who threw away the child.

"There are only three eggs in my family, and all three are girls."

"There are six of them in my family. You, the patriarch, know about them. You saw them yesterday."

"What era is this? Who would throw away their children?"

Now is the season for peacock chicks to hatch. Several families have children, and there are several peacocks in a nest. Peacock eggs are not as scarce as phoenix eggs, and no one registers them when they are born.There was no proof, and no one admitted that he threw the little peacock.

So the little white peacock lived in the patriarch's house.

Although Lan Xu raised this child, she didn't recognize it as her own name, she just raised it as the responsibility of the head of the clan, and the name was given by the palace lord - Lan Jiangxue.

The little peacock grows up day by day, and after it takes human form, its skin is like white porcelain, which is very beautiful.When people in the clan saw it, they would sigh and say, "What a beautiful child, but it's a pity that he is a white boy."

Lan Jiangxue is a male peacock. Male birds rely on their gorgeous feathers to attract female birds. This is especially true in the peacock family. Without gorgeous feathers, it is impossible to marry a wife.The other little peacocks knew this too, and they all refused to play with him.

"My mother said that he won't be able to marry a wife in the future. Let's stay away from him, so as not to be single with him in the future."

"The white hair is so ugly, it looks like it has been painted with white powder, it's not manly at all."

"He should go to Goose Ling and fight with those big-headed geese."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Small peacocks with brown spots on their bodies, which looked like larger quails, gathered together to compete with each other whose spots were the most beautiful.And that little white peacock was completely white, different from them.

Lan Jiangxue naturally heard the words of the little birds, lowered her head in silence, turned and left the peacock forest.Unknowingly, I walked to the edge of the stream, looked at the pure white bird head in the stream, and couldn't help crying.

"Little guy, why are you here alone?" The big bright red phoenix came over, and the fiery red feathers reflected the stream red.

Lan Jiangxue turned her head and saw that it was the Palace Master, she immediately lowered her head and saluted, "Palace Master."

Dan Su has lived for a hundred years, so she didn't understand what happened, but she didn't say anything, she just changed into a human form and flicked her clothes: "I am going to Yunge, you can go with me."

The little peacock blinked and then transformed into a human form. The little child was sculpted in pink and jade, wearing a baggy snow-colored robe, so cute.

There was a little smile in Dan Su's eyes, he took the little guy's hand and went straight to Yun Pavilion.Yun Pavilion is the place where Guiyun Palace collects books. One building and three buildings are extremely vast, and there are thousands of volumes of books in it, which are inexhaustible.

The palace lord came here to look for books to read, took Lan Jiangxue as a book boy, and picked a few books for him to hold.The conscientious little peacock staggered behind. When the palace lord sat down to read a book, he was quietly grinding ink and adding tea. The little child was clumsy with short hands and feet, but he did it very well.

"I study here every day. If you have nothing to do, come here to study ink."

Lan Jiangxue wished not to study with those little peacocks, and came to Yunge every day after that.The old parrot in Yunge would teach him how to read, and when he knew a lot, he would look for books to read by himself.

This year, Lan Xu had a brood of small peacocks with five eggs, only one of which was a male peacock.Lan Xu was very happy, and carried her son to ask the palace lord to give him a name.Dan Su looked at Lan Jiangxue who was concentrating on practicing calligraphy by his side, and said, "Choose a name to fight against Jiang Xue, let's call it Shanyu."

Lan Shanyu is a very lively little peacock, he runs around as soon as he can stand still.He found that all the little peacocks were ugly black and yellow, and his younger sisters were even more ugly. Only brother Jiang Xue was beautiful and pure white.The little peacock, who naturally likes beautiful things, likes to run after his brother.

To eat, you have to squeeze together with your brother; to sleep, you have to get under your brother's belly.

The moon was in the middle of the sky, and the little white peacock stretched out its claws silently, grabbing out the little fur ball that got under its body at some point.

"Ahh!" Lan Shanyu exclaimed excitedly, stretching out his head to rub against his brother.

"Don't follow me anymore." These were the words Lan Jiangxue said the most since she was a child.But Lan Shanyu didn't listen, and continued to follow.

"Boss, what are you doing with that mourner?" The other children in the nursery asked Lan Shanyu in a low voice.

As a peacock with a relatively noble bloodline, it has a high status among the birds. In addition, Lan Shanyu is smart and aggressive, so he took in a group of younger brothers on the first day of his arrival.

"He's not a loser, he's my brother! He's prettier than any of you!" The little blue peacock frowned, and pecked the nonsense little brother hard.

"Yo! I'm just an unlucky baizi, so I don't allow anyone to talk about it!" A few slightly bigger peacocks came over and said with a smile.

Lan Shanyu raised his head, stared fiercely at the group of little peacocks, and suddenly turned into a human form, and rushed to fight with them.

"Five hits one, what kind of a hero?" A few eagle cubs watched from a distance, then turned to ask Diao Lie, a black eaglet behind him.

"When the road is rough, help out with your claws! Come on!" Little Diao Lie rolled up his sleeves and rushed over with a group of young eagles.

More and more little birds joined the battle, and eventually the whole chick garden boiled up.

Back home with injuries all over her body, Lan Shanyu was slapped down by her father: "You are promising, dare to fight in the chick garden! Do you know that the conduct of the chicks will be reported to the palace master, you are so naughty, What's the future ahead!"

Lan Shanyu got up stubbornly, "They said that my brother is a mourner, so he should be beaten."

"You..." Lan Xu grabbed the bamboo stick at hand and threw it over.

"Crack!" There was a crisp sound, and it hit the child in white, leaving a bloodstain immediately.

"Jiang Xue!" Lan Shanyu couldn't help exclaiming as Lan Jiangxue rushed over to protect her.

"He's already injured all over, don't hit him again." Lan Jiangxue took a breath and said in a flat tone.

Back in the bedroom, Lan Jiangxue applied medicine to the wounded child in silence.

"Jiang Xue, I went to see the Palace Master today!" Lan Shanyu's mouth was still bleeding, but there was a big smile on his face, "The Palace Master gave me three phoenix feathers!" He took out a blue veil from his bosom, inside the veil were three small red feathers, glowing incomparably gorgeously in the sunlight.

"Yeah." Lan Jiangxue continued to apply the medicine with a calm expression on his face.The palace owner moults every year. Except for the tail feathers, the feathers from other places can be used as rewards to others.

"The palace lord told me that the memory of the phoenix said that the white peacock is the bird closest to the phoenix. If you wear this red feather on your body, you will be a noble phoenix!" Lan Jiangxue put a black feather on Lan Jiangxue's head and grinned.

Lan Jiangxue stared at him steadfastly, fell silent for a moment, then slowly, slowly smiled faintly, slowly leaned over, and placed a light kiss on the bruised palm print.Others said he was an ominous Baizi, but this idiot said he was a noble phoenix, what a fool.

Lan Shanyu will remember this sweet kiss in childhood for a lifetime.When both of them turned into teenagers, Lan Jiangxue, who had grown up, was so beautiful that Lan Shanyu could no longer see others in his eyes.

"I don't want a peacock, I want Jiang Xue!" Lan Shanyu, who has become the deputy owner of Peacock Ling, said to his parents without giving in.

"What a crime!" The mother cried heartbroken, and the father was so angry that he wanted to break his leg.

The palace lord said that the young lord is a genius and needs to practice martial arts since he was a child, so he had to choose a descendant of the Lan family to go to the palace as a national teacher.As the patriarch, Lan Xu thought for a long time, and wrote down the words "Lan Jiangxue" on the paper.Send that child away, maybe Shan Yu will figure it out.
