Waiting for the wind, waiting for the rain, waiting for your return

On the second day, the four of them came to Xunzhou City after saying goodbye to the folks who had forgotten to return.

Jun Fuyao pointed to the faintly visible city wall in front of him and said: "The front is Xunzhou City. I have already informed Nanlin Wang Jun Shining through sound transmission through the pigeon, this time we will live in Nanlin Wangfu."

Si Luoyang immediately agreed: "That's great. I've heard that Nanlin Palace is exquisitely designed, taking up all the elegance of Jiangnan gardens. In the past, when the old Nanlin King was still alive, he often invited friends from Beijing and China to come here to escape the cold. My mother was full of praise when she came here.”

Xunzhou City seems to be in a state of martial law. There are many low-ranking celestial masters among the city guards. There are notices everywhere on the city walls, to the effect that the Qingqiu Monster Clan will invade Xunzhou City in the near future. For the safety of the city, nothing but heroes The monks who came to participate in the Demon Slaying Conference, and others are not allowed to enter Xunzhou City from now on, and the whole city can only enter and not enter.

According to the regulations, Jun Fu and others dismounted in front of the city gate to accept the inspection.

Xiao Zhongyuan reached out his hand to explore the enchantment in front of the city gate: "This Xunzhou City has been covered by a defensive enchantment by the immortal gate. Although it cannot resist the invasion of the monster race, if any monster race wants to sneak into this city, it will trigger a sound alarm." , is not easy."

Next to him was a monk-like man wearing a bamboo hat and a long sword tied to his body, asking the city guard to inspect the hero post.Hearing this, he glanced at Xiao Zhongyuan, but immediately turned away after meeting Xiao Zhongyuan's gaze, took back the hero post and hurried into the city.

Suddenly a man came out from the city guards, repelled the other soldiers, greeted him, bowed his head and said: "Greetings to His Royal Highness Xiaoyao Wang, my subordinate He Lu, I was lucky enough to meet His Royal Highness Xiaoyao Wang in the capital, so the prince sent his subordinates the next morning." Meet His Highness at the gate of the city." Turning around, he saw Si Luoyang, still maintaining a decent smile on his face: "Princess Rongcheng is also here, ask the princess, Mrs. Guo is already in Nanlin Palace."

Si Luoyang said happily: "Mother is here too, that's great! Then let's enter the city quickly!"

The five people filed into the chariot that had already been prepared, and they were pulled by four smooth, tall horses, and they walked on the street with a lot of attention.

Mu Yunjin lifted the curtain of the chariot slightly, and there were not many people on the street.

He Ludao: "Since learning that Bai Changting left the Ming Tomb, the prince has started to evacuate the people in Xunzhou City, so as not to be harmed by the war between the monsters and monsters. It's just that the population of Xunzhou City is really dense, with 30 households up to now. , and half of the population is still in the city.”

Xiao Zhongyuan praised: "Nanlin Wang is thoughtful."

He Lu: "Although the prince is young, he has governed Xunzhou City for 15 years, and he is quite appreciated by the emperor. All the immortals from the eight great immortal sects in the world have settled in the Nanlin Prince's Mansion, and those from other places rushed to the Demon Slaying Conference Sanxiu lives in the guest house in the city, and the prince has also arranged everything properly, and all the expenses here will be paid by the Nanlin Palace."

This Nanlin King is really rich, there are estimated to be thousands of monks who came to participate in the Demon Slaughtering Conference. After all kinds of food and clothing, the daily expenses are estimated to be several thousand taels.

The carriage drove slowly from the bustling urban area to the outskirts of the city, the surrounding houses gradually decreased, the trees and rivers gradually increased, and soon stopped in front of Aoshan, Xiao Shining was already waiting at the gate.

Jun Fufu got out of the chariot, and a man who seemed to be in his early thirties came forward, his smile was brighter than that of the Maitreya Buddha enshrined in the temple: "His Royal Highness Xiaoyao Wang, Princess Rongcheng, the two of Kunlun Ruins An Immortal Monarch, you come to our Nanlin Prince's Mansion, you may be welcome from afar, and you may be welcome from afar."

The man was dressed in fine clothes, his hair was meticulously combed, and he wore a hair crown made of eight-treasure glaze. A hairpin made of pure gold was pinned to the crown, and jasper was hanging on the silk ribbon.The clothes were also embroidered with gold threads, with all kinds of beautiful jade and agate hanging from their waists, and their fingers were covered with precious stones and emeralds. It looked like a walking jewelry box, with a golden silk glove on their left hand, and they were almost killed. Blind.

The four of them returned the salute, and Si Luoyang said impatiently: "My lord, He Lu said that my mother has arrived at the house?"

The smile on Jun Shining's face was brighter than that of the sun: "Yes, I arrived two days earlier than the princess, and the masters of the world's immortal sect have also arrived at the mansion one after another." Looking at Xiao Zhongyuan, he praised : "This is the Shaoxia Xiao mentioned in the letter from His Highness the Third Highness, right? In the battle of Mingling, the young hero defeated the fox master Bai Changting. He really is a hero born a boy. By the way, Fang Junji from your sect is also here!" .”

Xiao Zhongyuan had never had a good impression of Fang Junji, and when he heard him coming, his reaction was quite cold.Seeing this, Jun Shining immediately changed the topic, and after a few short greetings, he asked He Lu to take a few of them to settle down. Tomorrow noon, he would clean up the dust for all the immortals, and by the way, discuss the current situation in Xunzhou City and Tu Fairy conference matters.

Nanlin Prince's Mansion was built according to the terrain of Mount Ao, with three steps for a pavilion and five steps for a pavilion, pavilions and corridors can be seen everywhere, and all the materials used are of the highest quality.

The main hall of discussion is halfway up the mountain, and further up is the backyard and garden of the master's house.There are guest rooms on the east and west sides, the courtyards allocated according to the sects of Xianmen, Guixu, Fuyu Mountain, and Tianyu Mountain live in the east, Kunlun Ruins, Wangjun Mountain, and Yuyuan live in the west. Mrs. Shu Yaguo of Rongguo Mansion Xijing chose the northwest The independent courtyard on the side is "Man Ting Fang".As the prince, Jun Fugui was originally arranged to be near the main hall facing south, but King Xiaoyao was not willing to live so far away alone. Seeing that there were few people coming from Kunlun Ruins, he moved into the courtyard of Kunlun Ruins without hesitation. "Xianghe Liu".

Although it is only a small independent courtyard, there are also many water pavilions and stone-stacked corridors.The rooms are not far from each other and share a large courtyard, but the door on the other side of the room is either a water pavilion or a garden, with unique ingenuity and exquisite design.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he met Fang Junji face to face as expected, and beside him were two other disciples from Kunlun Xu, who seemed to be rushing out.All of them raised their hands blankly, as a greeting.

The room chosen by Zhongyuan is directly facing a lotus pond, in which lotus flowers are planted all over. In summer, the lotus leaves are endlessly green, and in autumn, the leaves, stems, poles, and jade rhyme are cold.Pushing the door and walking to the terrace, Jun Fu from the next room ran out early, took off his shoes and socks, stretched his legs into the water, praised: "Xiao Shining really enjoys it."

Seeing Xiao Zhongyuan, he suddenly hooked his foot, and the water splashed up, splashing water all over Xiao Zhongyuan's body.

Xiao Zhongyuan patted the splashed water droplets on his body, rolled his eyes: "How old are you? Childish."

"Hahaha... how about I being three years old?" Seeing Xiao Zhongyuan's slightly angry look, Jun Fu laughed so hard that he rolled forward and backward.

Xiao Zhongyuan pretended to turn around, but silently gathered his spiritual power with his fingers, suddenly agitated the water spray in front of Jun Fu, and the whole water spray instantly turned nearly ten feet high, splashing his head on Jun Fu's body, completely chilling his heart.Jun Fu was stunned for a moment, but when he realized it, Xiao Zhongyuan had already turned around and entered the room, and couldn't help but lean on the table and laugh.

"Okay, Xiao Zhongyuan, you are even more childish! Sneak attack is not considered a hero, so come out and let's compete again..." Jun Fu's distraught voice came from outside the door.
