Chapter 111 Under the Shade of Lavender
After leaving the Ximu Mountains, Roland Hill did not return directly to the Feather Sect, but went to Mushan Continent first.
Compared with the evening mountains, the scenery here seems to be more special.
As Roland Hill flew over the undulating evening dusk mountains, rugged peaks stood on the ground. These peaks are not the kind of gentle undulating curves, but more like stone pillars inserted into the ground.
It's just that compared to the barren evening mountains in the past, the forests here are lush, and there are layers of lavender trees under the peaks, which is very beautiful.
There is a special kind of tree in Mushanzhou. Its leaves are small and round, and it is lavender-like purple. The summer wind exudes a unique light fragrance. Walking in the shade of this purple mottled tree is a comfortable and light feeling. Then came with the breeze.
In the shade of tall lavender trees, wide avenues lead in all directions, and occasionally lively towns and markets can be seen hidden under the tall canopy. People speak kind words and live an idyllic life.
The toe of Loren Hill tapped on a clear pool of water, leaped lightly, flew to the green and lavender interlaced branches and leaves above, and then walked through the tall tree shade.
In fact, apart from those high mountain peaks, Mushanzhou should be regarded as a forest plain, and the ground is full of green and purple forest leaves.
The ears are full of insects and birds, the wind spreads behind the hair along the hair, and different scenery is displayed in the eyes.
There is a pond with a clear bottom and the pebbles under it can be seen one by one, a herd of deer foraging in the forest, raising the forked horns on their heads and chanting, and a town leaning against a big tree, among which the hut made of white wood smokes. Curly, there are flocks of birds flying with her. They are all red-billed and blue-winged, and their chest and abdomen are white fluff, curious and chattering.
Accompanied by some innocent and curious birds, Roland Hill seemed to be one of them, roaming in the forest and seeing this lively scene.
After some joyful flying, Roland Hill unknowingly came to the residence of Ning Zi Zhao Ye Palace.
She landed on the high canopy and looked up at the high mountain above her head.
The rugged peaks are full of shrubs, grasses, and purple trees with their roots stuck in the stone crevices.
"Night Palace of Condensed Purple Light"
There are five large characters standing upright, the whole body is made of purple, and it is engraved on the mountain wall. The rock carved by the pen is clear and delicate, and the color inside is not scattered, which has a faint beauty.
Roland Hill continued to move his gaze upward, and only then did he see the palace and pavilion attached to the steep mountain wall, like a suspended plank road. Not only this mountain, but also several surrounding buildings. It seems that these buildings together are the complete Zhaoye Palace.
Under these peaks, there are still lush purple woods, but there are also several small towns that gather in the woods.
Lorraine Hill sat on a horizontal branch, wearing light green strappy sandals on both feet, her fair calves sticking out of the skirt, and swaying gently in the air, looking at the station, looking for the Main entrance or entrance.
At last she let out a sigh, and jumped off the branch again, like a white bird gliding over the town. Anyway, if you can't see it for a while, it's better to ask someone directly.
On the streets of the town, sporadic pedestrians pass by, and the shops next to it sell some local specialties and daily necessities.
"Hello, is there anyone?"
Inside a quiet china shop, the open door was knocked gently.
"Someone, someone, please come in." A man who was leaning against a wooden chair woke up from a morning nap, saw this girl, was a little stunned, then recovered and greeted this beautiful girl.
"Are you going to buy china?" he asked.
"Yes." Roland Hill nodded, because the porcelain in this shop was very beautiful, she wanted to buy some, and it would be good to bring it to the Western Continent in the future. By the way, I asked how to get in the night palace.
"Then you've come to the right place." The man in his thirties began to introduce.
There are various kinds of porcelain, large and small, in this shop, almost including various uses, as well as many pure decorations. The difference between these porcelains and the outside world is that there are many purples. Almost eight out of ten porcelains are purple, but these purple styles are not monotonous.
"Look, it's dyed with a rare purple cattail." He took out a half-meter-high curved vase, and its cool glaze bottom was a pale purple. It is like brushing on a white wall with a purple brush, and you can vaguely see the white color of the wall itself.
The little whiteness revealed in these gaps not only did not destroy the original beauty, but added a natural comfort and made people comfortable.
Little Lorraine nodded, a little worried about not having enough money, and asked about several other vases.
"Then you might like this one, it's dyed with chengzi."
Seeing this girl seemed a little hesitant, the shopkeeper introduced another kind of purple porcelain. The purple has a kind of light red in it. If you don't look closely, you will not find it strange, but if you look closely, you will see the purple porcelain. The hidden light red has a gorgeous and mottled feeling, which is very beautiful.
"This seems to be not bad." Little Lorraine felt that his wallet seemed to be a little out of control.
"Don't worry, you can choose, our store is a century-old store, and the quality is first-class, even the Zhaoye Palace is recognized." In this era, the door-to-door sect has a very high social status, and it is natural to have their endorsement. is more trustworthy.
After Roland Hill turned around, he saw several chinaware placed on the lower side, and asked curiously.
"What is this
The color seems to be very special. "
"This is Ning Ye Zi, that is, the purple precipitate is extremely close to the night." Said, the owner carefully picked up a vase and placed it on the table.
The whole body of this vase is very dark, almost black, but upon closer inspection, it is not black but a delicate purple that is extremely precipitated, giving a dignified and elegant beauty.
Well, it seems pretty good too. Loren Hill's eyes showed a look of liking. Although she did not pursue fame and fortune, she also had her own little hobbies, such as this precipitation color wrapped in glaze. In the past, when I was in the forest, I would also make some of my favorite things.
"This, this, and this." Roland Hill thought, and still came with a set of each of the three styles.
"Okay, wait a minute."
The shop owner happily let the girl sit for a while, and then carefully took out the china, and brought a wooden box from the back room, which had many grids just for display.
After putting away the china, he poured a bag of smoked dried flowers to slow down the collision of the china, and then closed the box and locked it.
"Where are you going, I can call a carriage for you." The shopkeeper knew someone, and seeing that the girl was not a local, he asked the inn where he went up and down.
"No need, go to Zhaoye Palace, you can tell me how to get to Zhaoye Palace." Only then did Roland Hill reveal his identity.
Looking at the Zhihuang token, the shopkeeper was a little surprised, and then nervously wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"It turns out that the young lady is from the Hanyu faction. No wonder she has such a grace. As for the money, you can give as much as you want. The Hanyu faction and the Zhaoye Palace are both family members, and we townspeople are not less favored by their visits on weekdays." Originally, he saw This girl is simple, and she wants to call a higher price, and she doesn't want the other party to come from an extraordinary origin, so this idea is stopped.
"Don't be so polite." Roland Hill shook her head slightly, she didn't want to take such a small advantage, and she really liked it.
And this kind of porcelain is also made by craftsmen with painstaking efforts and painstaking efforts. If you can't make more money, it is estimated that people will not have the motivation to continue researching in the future.
Moreover, she didn't think that because she was an extraordinary person, she was superior to others and must be treated specially. Compared with those who work hard, maybe their efforts and struggles are not less than their own, and they are just better talents and conditions.
After Roland Hill asked, he took out three gold dishes from his arms and placed them in the shopkeeper's hand.
"How can this be made? After all, it's not something special. I really can't afford this number." The shop owner was hesitant when he saw it.
Even if he sells these things at a high point, if added together, there is at most one gold dish, but now the girl gave three.
"It's nothing, just accept it. I hope that the next time you come, you can see such beautiful china." Lorraine Hill smiled, waved his hand, and carried the wooden box into the sky.
Looking at the distant figure, the store manager stood in front of the open space for a long time, clutching three gold coins. For some reason, a strange feeling surged in his heart.
Since when did I learn the words of these philistines... Maybe it was in the year after my father's death, I had to take over this shop, but unfortunately my craftsmanship was not as good as my father's.
Later, I had to learn from the experience of the outside world, make decorations, and study the language skills. The skills basically did not improve much, and these kinds of things came and went. In the generation of my father and grandfather, there were more than a dozen kinds of porcelain in this workshop, but hundreds of kinds.
Although many people have come to buy it over the years, it is just a transaction in the end. In the end, I tried my best to negotiate, but I only felt that those people were just buying it back and pretending to be elegant, and they had to make up various stories to beautify them.
But this time it seems to be different, not only did not bargain, the other party even gave several times more. It can be seen that the girl really likes it.
A faint sense of pride and satisfaction rose in my heart.
"Hey, I feel like I'm going crazy again, so let's go back and clean up." Although he said so, he unknowingly stopped in front of a dusty cabinet door, opened the door, and revealed several dilapidated notebooks, among them The familiar scribbled handwriting came into his eyes, which he wrote down when he was studying with his father when he was young.
It turns out that you haven't turned over for so long, do you want to stop practicing? Maybe next time I can meet such a generous guest.
Stroking the grey manual notes, he sat back on the wooden chair and flipped through it quietly, instead of taking a nap like before.
