After the rain, the sky clears up.

The pear trees all over the mountain are as beautiful as if they have been washed away.

Some exquisite ancient-style buildings with cornice roofs were built along the mountain and spread up and down the mountain. They occupy an unknown amount of space.

The exquisite gardens, rockeries and ponds built along the mountain highlight the elegant taste of the owner here.

This place has an interesting name, Xuemu Villa.

This villa is hidden deep in the mountains and old forests. Those who come and go on weekdays are all people who have a close relationship with the owner of the villa. Ordinary people are not allowed to enter, and they will be politely asked out if they enter by mistake.

The owner of the villa is said to be a lady who was widowed at a young age. For a period of time, she was well-known in the world of Tiannan.

However, this widowed lady, together with Xuemu Villa, is very low-key.

However, the secular properties of Xuemu Villa are spread all over Jiangnan Road. Even if the owner is low-key, the reputation of the Villa is still quite high.

A layman watches the excitement, an expert watches the door.

A knowledgeable person who has been able to hang out in Tiannan Jianghu knows in his heart that there is no way that there will be no one on the underworld and white roads to stretch out his claws for such a big fat sheep.

But for so many years, I have been able to go through it steadily, quietly, and the years have been good... I have not been swallowed up by the big shots, so naturally I cannot be underestimated.

Either there is someone above this widowed lady, or there is someone above her.

You have to choose one of the two.

In the morning, the villa was quiet.

The sun falls on the pear branches covered with water drops, and the air is filled with the smell of spring soil.

There is a freshness after the rain in the empty mountains.

In the villa, at the top of the mountain, there are no luxurious mansions, only an elegant pavilion that is just right.

The name of the pavilion is "Chun Ting". The style is indeed elegant and has the style of the Spring and Autumn Period. It is hung with green and black satin curtains. This color has the style of ancient Wu and Yue and highlights the taste of the owner.

A tall orchid with blond hair reaching her waist was sitting cross-legged on a snow-white futon in the pavilion.

A sword scabbard lay across his lap.

The snow-white sword has been unsheathed.

In front of her was a large bucket of clear water filled with pear petals.

The courtyard was silent, with the faint sound of swords ringing.

Xuezhongzhu dipped a folded white cloth in water and wiped the snow-white sword, leaving the white petals on the sword.

She pressed her sword finger against the white cloth, and with each stroke, the sword let out a low groan.

This water is the morning dew rainwater, taken from the early spring pear trees all over the mountains and plains.

This is an excellent drink for those who practice breathing and breathing.

At the moment, this lady of Yunmeng is using her sword to wash her body.

Xue Zhongzhu's face was calm, his blue eyes were slightly lowered, and he was concentrating.

Outside the pavilion, there was the largest pear tree in the entire villa, which seemed to accompany her quietly.

One person, one sword, one pavilion and one tree.

The harsh mountain winds have avoided this mountain peak, leaving it quiet and empty.

boom--!

At this time, there was a soft sound outside the pavilion, like the sound of something falling on a branch.

At the same time, accompanied by the movement, a small piece of pear petals, which had been nourished by the spring rain and turned from snow white to light pink, slowly fell from the branches.

Like rain.

On the branch, there is a huge strange bird with three legs and four eyes, standing quietly on the branch.

It just fell from the sky.

It grabs a branch with two claws, and the extra claw holds a silk book tied with a red string.

Xuezhongzhu kept moving, lowering his head to wash his sword.

The three-legged strange bird suddenly turned its head and looked at a pool of water halfway up the mountain not far from the mountain.

From the Spring Pavilion on the mountain peak, you can directly overlook the scene beside the pool.

There is a rockery in the center of the pool, and there is a rare white sturgeon in the pool.

The paddlefish keeps circling around the oval pool, seemingly tireless.

On the bank of the pond, there was also a little lolita in a pink and white undershirt with horns tied in her horns. She was running with her short legs, chasing the white sturgeon and circling around the pond.

The little Loli held a rather long, straight pear branch in her hand and poked it into the water.

As she circled around the lake, the pear blossom branches scratched the water, making a splashing sound... as if she were really drawing circles on the water.

A paddlefish joins her.

The two guys were very happy.

I just don’t know who is learning from whom.

The three-legged strange bird on the top of the pear tree branch on the mountain peak reflected this scene in its eyes and tilted its head slightly.

The four eyes seemed to be subconsciously following the little Loli Zhajiao who was circling by the pool, turning up, down, left and right.

At a certain moment, as if she was stunned, the three-legged strange bird blinked rapidly, flapped its wings, and shook its head.

The tall Orchid who was washing her sword in the pavilion suddenly stood up and strode out of the pavilion without even having time to return her snow-white sword to its sheath.

Looking at her cold and pretty face, she has reached the limit of her patience.

"Sister."

A gentle female gentleman in white clothes suddenly came to the mountain peak, holding a scroll in her hand, and walked to the pavilion.

His body stood calmly between the candle in the snow and the pool below with people and fish swimming around.

"Hey, is there news from the fifth junior sister? The insect mother is here."

Yu Nianyuan smiled softly and pointed to the pear tree branch not far from the pavilion.

The candle is ignored in the snow.

"What is this girl doing?" Xuezhongzhu suddenly said, his tone impatient.

"Well, it seems like I'm protecting that front tooth."

"Guard? Front teeth?"

The candle in the snow said every word, trying hard to suppress the anger.

I probably never thought that Yunmeng, the unruly and domineering lady who oppressed all the men in the world, would be able to pronounce these words strung together in her mouth.

What a crime.

Yu Nianyuan, who was fluttering in white clothes, held a scroll to his lips and said in a helpless tone:

"Xiao Shu was mischievous yesterday afternoon and was thrown out of the door by Senior Sister. She accidentally knocked out a lower front tooth. She covered the tooth in her hand all night. She got up early in the morning and ran out without eating. She said

It is necessary to... put the lower front teeth at a high place, the higher the better, so that the back teeth can grow faster..."

When Yu Nianyuan hid the little Lolita to comfort her, he said through his teeth, "Don't worry, the master and the disciple don't blame the master anymore, and don't remember the overnight grudge." He didn't say it, and continued to sigh:

"This is the highest mountain where Senior Sister is washing her sword. Xiao Shu originally wanted to throw her front teeth here, but she seemed to be afraid of disturbing Senior Sister, so she didn't dare to come, so she left them at the mountain with the paddlefish halfway up the mountain.

It’s in the pond.”

Xue Zhongzhu took a deep breath and really didn't know what to say. He asked with a bit of gritted teeth:

"After you throw it away, why don't you get out."

Yu Nianyuan pressed the corners of his lips, tried to remain serious, and explained softly:

"Xiao Shu regretted losing her tooth. She didn't know who she heard it from. Well, it might have been her father. He said that fish have a very poor memory and forget it after a while... She was afraid that the white sturgeon named White Sturgeon would also forget it.

Friendship would not work if she swallowed her front teeth that were left at the bottom of the pond... So she thought of this method, taking the paddlefish in circles to stun the fish..."

Under Xue Zhongzhu's expressionless gaze, Yu Nianyuan's voice became smaller and smaller as he spoke.

It's hard to avoid feeling a little guilty after taking in a young female disciple with such a silly personality.

"Ahem, forget it, don't worry about this girl, let her go, and stop after she faints on her own."

Xue Zhongzhu reluctantly turned around and returned to the pavilion with Yu Nianyuan.

Xuezhongzhu waved casually, and a three-legged strange bird named "Chong Niang" flew over and handed the red string silk book into her hand.

As Yu Nianyuan watched, Xuezhongzhu lowered his eyes to read the secret letter for a while, then put it into his sleeves calmly.

"Tell me something." She said coolly without mentioning the letter.

Yu Nianyuan nodded, took out a piece of rice paper from his arms, and handed it over.

"This is?"
