Chapter 30 Seeing Duke Lu at the Ranch
The Pegasus Ranch is under Jingshan, between the Zhangshui and Jushui, and there are peaks on all sides. There are only two gorges, east and west, for entry and exit, which are easy to defend but difficult to attack.
The soil inside is fertile, the products are abundant, and the fields are crisscrossing. In spring and autumn, you can see red flowers and green leaves, green mountains and dark water, deep rice, and green grass, just like the peach blossom land described by Tao Yuanming.
Shen Yuanjing sat on the mountain and saw a bird's eye view. It was already the middle of winter, with gusts of wind and dark clouds. At the higher terrain of the northwest corner, there was a magnificent castle, with a steep cliff as walled as a cliff, and a winding river in front of it, which was very spectacular.
It was late at night that he fell quietly, walked all the way, landing in the back mountain, and after passing through a bamboo forest, he finally saw Lu Miaozi's two-story building.
There are three words "Anle Nest" hanging on the front of the front door, and there is a couplet on both sides. The calligraphy says: "It is better to tune the piano in the morning and drum the zither in the evening; the old rain comes soon, and the new rain is coming."
The font is elegant and vigorous, with a strong and powerful style, and has a Wei and Jin style. Shen Yuanjing looked for a while and heard an old voice coming from it: "Dear guest is here, please go upstairs and talk."
When Shen Yuanjing entered the inner room, he saw chrysanthemums blooming on the cliff and furnishings, all of which showed natural wood colors, all of which revealed the meaning of nature.
He climbed up the steps and saw an old man with a tall crown and an ancient face sitting at the table. There was a small stove next to it, with a warm wine on it, and the fragrance of wine was everywhere.
This person is naturally Lu Miaozi. He looked tired and said, "Please sit down, please try the six fruit liquid that I brewed by myself."
Shen Yuanjing was not polite either. He sat cross-legged, picked up the wine glass, and drank it gently. The fruit was brewed into his throat. The wine tasted mellow and soft and refreshing. The most rare thing was that the fragrance was rich and coordinated, which made people feel long-lasting.
He sincerely exclaimed: "This wine is really good, but unfortunately I am not good at drinking. If a friend of mine is here, I can definitely tell you what ingredients you are using, Brother Lu."
Lu Miaozi said calmly: "This wine is made of six fresh fruits: pomegranate, grape, orange, mountain slag, green plum, and pineapple. After the fruit selection, washing, rinsing, crushing, abandoning the core, soaking, juice extraction, fermentation, mixing, filtering, and aged for three years, it was made. I have been here for more than 30 years, and you are the only customer."
"That's really rare." Shen Yuanjing smiled and said, "Green Ants' fresh wine, red mud stove. It's time to snow when you come late. Can you drink a glass of wine without a drink? It's so leisurely."
Lu Miaozi carefully chewed the poem, his face stretched out, and said with a smile: "What a 'can't drink a cup', it's worth it."
He picked up the wine glass, signaled to the opposite side, drank it all, and said, "If you can tell my surname, I think you recognize me. You are so young and have such martial arts, you will be a newcomer and better than Mr. Shen Lang, who is Yu Wenhua and Du Fuwei and others."
Shen Yuanjing nodded and said, "I guessed well, but the news has lagged a little behind. Not only can I beat Yu Wenhua and Du Fuwei, I have not lost a single thing when I discussed it with Shi Zhixuan two or three months ago."
"What?" Lu Miaozi's hand trembled as he poured wine, and half a cup was spilled out, and he looked over in surprise.
"What a pity, such a good wine." Shen Yuanjing looked at the wine that fell on the table, felt regretful, and said, "But there are only two or three people who know about this. It's normal that you haven't heard of it."
Lu Miaozi smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know if I'm old or the news you said is too amazing. Shi Zhixuan, that's the number one master of the Demon Sect. Even if Ning Daoqi or the four Buddhist monks all took action, they would not be able to take him."
Shen Yuanjing also agreed and said, "If it weren't for his mental breakdown because of Bi Xiuxin's matter, he would be the most difficult person in the world. Even so, he should be ranked above Zhu Yuyan and ranked first in the current Demon Sect."
When Lu Miaozi heard the three words "Zhu Yuyan", he looked complicated and said, "You are young and have such a good martial arts skills, but you know so many secrets. I really don't know which hidden sect can teach you.
Zhu Yuyan, hehe, if I hadn't fallen in love with this witch in the wrong time, I wouldn't have fallen to this point today. I'm still alive, and my life is coming, and the deadline is just these few days."
Shen Yuanjing listened quietly to him, calculated slightly, and suddenly reached out to reach over. Lu Miaozi was caught off guard, but he reacted quickly and moved a little, trying to take out the opponent's tricks.
Unexpectedly, the other party seemed to be able to see through all his changes. After several consecutive moves, he still couldn't get rid of it. He could only watch the other party grab his left wrist with his right hand.
Lu Miaozi was about to use his skills to resist, but a strange force penetrated into his body, and his whole body was stiff and unable to move. He was shocked. Even though his martial arts were about to deteriorate a little, he was still the top in the world. He thought that even if Ning Daoqi came, he would not be able to control himself with one move.
Shen Yuanjing sent his true energy to the other party's physical strength. After turning it around, he took it back and chuckled, "Brother Lu, you are not honest. Although Zhu Yuyan's true energy of the demon is like a maggot on the bone, it still tortures you, but it may still be half a year later."
Lu Miaozi sighed and said, "Mr. Shen is very good at martial arts, but now I believe that you can really tie with Shi Zhixuan."
He paused and said, "You will not show off to me this time. If you come here, you will say it clearly. You have seen this old bone, and you don't have much time to live, but you can't stand your fright."
Shen Yuanjing smiled and said, "I have one thing to ask you, two things to help you. Of course, I have always been able to follow the way of heaven. To everyone like you, if you take something, you will usually return something.
Let me talk first, I have a way to cure your injury, or it can increase your life span for another three or five years, ten or eight years. However, you have to take the map of Yang Gong’s treasure with me.”
"What?" Lu Miaozi was shocked, stood up and said, "Do you have a way to make me live for a few more years?"
Shen Yuanjing shook his head and said, "I can only cure your injuries. As for whether you can recuperate, I don't know. It is important to know that although Zhu Yuyan's true demonic energy left in your body is deep into the bone marrow, it is not completely impossible.
Even you should have many ways to do it, but you just regret it. You either complain about yourself or express your feelings for others to forget your worries, and even sit in the city of troubled so that you will reach this point today."
When Lu Miaozi heard his words, he was a little dissatisfied and sneered: "I admit that Mr. Shen's martial arts are so skillful that it is hard to reach. But in terms of medical skills, although I am not the top in the world, how much can you know?"
Shen Yuanjingqi said: "Why do I need to understand medical skills? You are just internal injuries? Which doctor in the world dares to say that he can definitely cure you well?
Oh, I think it was because I said you didn’t think of a solution and were frowning all day long, embarrassing you? If you don’t agree, then I will tell you carefully.”
