Chapter 420 Mochou Lake

Chapter 420 Mochou Lake

Before Nie Qianyu could say anything, Xiao Juzi next to him smiled and said: "Young Master Ren is very polite. If you come to our valley, won't you take out all the family wealth in the valley? Don't worry, I won't let you see it." What kind of herbs are there? Even if I cut all the herbs and weave them into a straw hat for you, that’s fine.”

Nie Qianyu was a little shy and did not dare to answer. Zhang Xiaohua touched her nose and said, "Could it be that Little Orange wants to use herbs to give me a hat? Then I won't do it."

Then, he changed the topic and asked: "Nie Xiaoyu'er, you have always been conceited and smart, but you know what these two dandy boys from Jianghu gangs are doing in Mochou City?"

Nie Qian covered her mouth and smiled and said: "Brother Ren is ridiculous. When it comes to intelligence, how can a little girl compare to the wise and brave Ren Shaoxia?"

There was a bit of pride and joy in his words, and his eyes were full of autumn.

Zhang Xiaohua originally wanted to change the topic, but when she saw Nie Qianyu saying the same thing, she had no choice but to say: "I see that they are dressed in bright clothes and carrying gifts. They are probably going to visit some elders, right?"

Xiao Juzi smiled and said, "I think they might be gambling."

Zhang Xiaohua and Nie Qian were surprised and asked: "Where can I see it?"

Xiao Juezi said: "If you go to visit the elders, you will never treat the gifts as bets for any reason. Only these gifts are bets in the first place, so you are not stingy. Losing here is also losing, and losing in Mochou City is also losing!"

Xiao Juzi said it categorically, but it was somewhat reasonable. Zhang Xiaohua knew that this was impossible, and couldn't think of anything else for the moment, so she could only say: "Who knows, you will know it when you get to Mochou City anyway, and it is impossible to get it." Let’s go shopping with these belongings.”

After hearing this, Nie Qianyu's eyes lit up and she said, "Brother Ren is right. There are some auctions in Mochou City every year, and merchants from all over the world come here to trade. Maybe they are selling things?"

"Auction?" Zhang Xiaohua's eyes lit up and she said, "I have read about this name from books in the early years, and I know a little about the details. I have not experienced it myself, so I don't know if I can participate this time."

Xiao Juzi smiled and said: "There are actually three words 'auction' in the Three Character Classic. It's really not easy."

Nie Qianyu frowned and said: "The time of the auction is uncertain, and I don't know if it will be held at this time. However, judging from the appearance of the two of them, it really looks like it is only a few days' journey to Mochou City. Let's go Don’t you know just by looking at it?”

Zhang Xiaohua nodded,

Then he asked: "It shouldn't be the official road from Danhe City to Mochou City. I wonder if the group chasing you has an ambush ahead?"

After hearing this, Nie Qianyu said proudly: "Brother Ren, don't worry. This is already within my sphere of influence in the Valley of Rejuvenation. If nothing goes wrong, those people won't be stupid enough to come here to cause trouble, unless they want to anger the south." All factions.”

"That's it." Zhang Xiaohua pondered a little. He wanted to ask why no one from the Valley of Rejuvenation came to meet him, but some of the window paper was still hazy, so he smiled and said, "That's good. In the next few days, , I can sleep peacefully."

Xiao Juzi frowned after hearing this and said, "Master Ren, you know how to sleep. Even though you sleep here and there, I don't see you getting fat."

Nie Qian said angrily: "Little Orange, don't talk nonsense."

Zhang Xiaohua stretched his body and said, "I have been working hard for a long time. Even if I want to see a peach blossom with you, I have to save someone. How can I gain weight? By the way, Xiao Yu'er, do you still want to enjoy this peach blossom?"

Nie Qian shook her head and said: "The peach blossoms are gorgeous, but they are too dense and not suitable for looking at for a long time. If they are among thousands of flowers, each in a beautiful posture, you can play with them for a long time. It is really good at this time, it is time to go ”

Zhang Xiaohua listened and said: "Okay, no one is making any noise anyway, and I can't earn any more gold. You should leave quickly. The sky is filled with red clouds. I'm dazzled by the sight."

After saying that, he turned the horse's head, the bell rang softly, and slowly drove out of the Peach Garden.

After leaving Taoyuan, we headed south again. After a few days, we saw more and more people coming, and the smiles on Nie Qianyu and Xiao Juzi's faces grew.

However, in the past few days, many young men with large groups of family members and some motorcades hurried past their carriages. Judging from their arrogant looks, they must have rich families. Every time they passed, If Nie Qianyu knew him, he would whisper to Zhang Xiaohua and explain to him some of the patterns of the southern martial arts world. As expected, these young heroes are all young masters of a sect or a group.

"Isn't this year's auction earlier?" Nie Qianyu was a little surprised: "In previous years, it was held in late spring to facilitate merchants from far away. It's only February, so it's still very early."

Zhang Xiaohua, on the other hand, didn't care. She only watched around, waiting for people from the two factions who didn't like each other to take action, so that he could make a decision and make some money by the way.

Unfortunately, after waiting for a few days, I never encountered another one.

Before I knew it, a towering high city was already in sight.

This is a city that looks very ancient. The huge green wall bricks are covered with moss. From the high and dark places, there are some small trees stretching out their branches. Nie Qianyu pointed to the city of Mochou City and said: " Brother Ren, this Mochou City has a long history, and has a longer history than the previous Danhe City and Pingyang City."

"Really?" Zhang Xiaohua said in surprise: "I don't know about this."

"By the way, Brother Ren." Nie Qianyu was not surprised. She pointed to the three characters on the city gate and said with a smile: "Look at the three characters 'Mochou City'."

Zhang Xiaohua raised her head when she heard the sound, and sure enough, above the tall city gate, there were three large Chinese characters "Mochou City" with flying dragons and phoenixes. However, they were written in ancient characters, which had the charm of the two characters "Miao" on the archway of Piaomiao Villa.

Zhang Xiaohua thought for a moment and said: "Is this the word 'Mochou City'? Why haven't I seen it before? But it looks like the brushwork is very delicate, as if it is a girl's handwriting."

After hearing this, Nie Qianyu clapped her hands and praised: "Brother Ren is indeed a master. These three characters are ancient characters and are already in common use. It's normal that Brother Ren doesn't recognize them. However, you can actually tell that these characters are for girls." It's written down. You have learned the 'Three Character Classic' very well."

Zhang Xiaohua touched her chin and said without any humility: "Average, average."

Little Orange pouted secretly on the side.

Nie Qianyu continued: "It is said that the characters of Mochou City were written by an immortal named Mochou Nu..."

"Immortal!?" Zhang Xiaohua was shocked and immediately cut off Nie Qianyu's words.

"Yes, the city chronicles of Mochou City actually record that Mochou City was built by the fairy named Mochou Girl. Of course the words on the city gate were written by her."

Zhang Xiaohua thought for a while and said: "The immortals I read in the book were all from the ancient times. That happened ten thousand years ago. Even if there is a Mochou Girl, has this Mochou City existed for ten thousand years?"

"Where is it?" Nie Qian said with a faint smile: "Where can there be a city that lasts for ten thousand years? This is just repairs from generation to generation."

Zhang Xiaohua breathed a sigh of relief and said: "So that's it. But, what about the fairy named Mochou Nu? Is there any record of it in your city annals?"

"Of course!" At this time, even Little Orange answered.

"The story of Mochou Nu is widely spread in the south, but Master Ren doesn't know about it. This shows that the Three Character Classic is not well written."

Zhang Xiaohua became curious and asked: "Xiao Juzi, how about you tell me the story of Mochou Nu?"

Nie Qianyu heard this and said: "Brother Ren, let's go to the city. Seeing that it's getting late, the west gate is close to Mochou Lake. When we get to Mochou Lake, how about I give you a detailed explanation? "

"Easy to say." Zhang Xiaohua was overjoyed and kicked the black horse in the butt. The black horse was already used to it and immediately pulled the carriage into Mochou City along with the crowd.

The layout of Mochou City, the clothing of pedestrians, and the styles of shops were completely different from Pingyang City. Zhang Xiaohua enjoyed seeing them very much.

Not long after, the carriage came to a green lake.

There are countless hanging willow branches around the lake, which are also unusually green, and above the lake, there is a jade-belt-like dam that divides the water into two.

I saw a tall tower standing in the corner of the lake. The setting sun was setting behind the tall tower, as if hanging on the top of the tower. The reflection of the tower was reflected in the green lake water, rippling with the waves, which was very interesting.

Nie Qianyu looked at Zhang Xiaohua with fascination, and whispered: "This is the most famous scenery of Mochou Lake. The frowning eyebrows are shining in the sunset, and this tower is the frowning tower."

"Oh?" Zhang Xiaohua frowned and said, "Why does it have such a sad name?"

Nie Qianyu was also fascinated after hearing this, and said: "Yes, Brother Ren, you are very emotional, and you immediately heard something from the name of this tower. I thought the same way back then."

Then, Nie Qianyu looked at the green lake and said sadly: "Because Mochou was pressed under this tower, and everyone who heard her story would frown and sigh. Therefore, this tower has been called frowning over time. Now, no one will mention the original name anymore."

"The fairy is trapped under this tower?" Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua immediately released his spiritual consciousness. At this time, his spiritual consciousness was already much stronger than that on the desert island, not to mention the lake in this area.

Seeing that Zhang Xiaohua remained silent, Nie Qianyu continued: "It is said that Mochou lived a carefree life after building this city. But one day, she met a man named Ye Feng by the Mochou Lake. The two fell in love at first sight and fell in love, but they were jealous of beauty. Ye Feng was valued by an old monk named Xuan Kong. He thought he was a Buddhist disciple with spiritual roots. He insisted on crossing Ye Feng to enter Buddhism. Of course Mochou Nu did not agree. I was willing, but Xuankong said that Mochou Nu was born as a monster, so he used a spell to suppress Mochou Nu under this tower..."

While listening to Nie Qian's Yu Jian story, Zhang Xiaohua looked down the tower with her spiritual consciousness. As her spiritual consciousness went down, the expression on Zhang Xiaohua's face became weirder and weirder. Finally, she actually showed a look of surprise!
