Longevity, starting from traveling and telling stories

Chapter 19 The God of Land Invites You
A qin and flute duet? Ye Beixuan watched Li Xianglian's disappointed eyes transform into an expectant one, and he couldn't bear to refuse, so he said, "It's not that I don't want to tell you the ending of Peach Blossom Fan, but I'm exhausted today and can't compile it. Please forgive me, young lady. I promise to compile the ending for you once I finish it. How about that?"

"Really?" Li Xianglian raised the corners of her mouth slightly, her cheeks flushed lightly, and her joy was revealed.

Anyway, Peach Blossom Fan is only half-told. If someone can tell me the ending, I won't be a lazier.

"Of course it's true." Ye Beixuan bowed and said seriously.

Li Xianglian quickly stood up and bowed solemnly, saying, "In that case, Xianglian would like to thank you, sir."

"After talking about the Peach Blossom Fan, Xianglian has another request, which is the duet we just mentioned."

Ye Beixuan was confused. He had never tried the function of the jade flute before. He wondered if it would allow him to paint as easily as a god.

If you can play it yourself, it is not impossible to play in an ensemble.

He also nodded and said: "Ye is not very good at vocal music, but you can give it a try."

"Thank you, Mr. Ye. This song was composed by Xianglian, and its name is "Xuan Xiao Su Lian." After saying the name, Li Xianglian's face couldn't help but turn red, which was rare, because this was too easy to cause misunderstanding.

But this was indeed the title of the song that she had painstakingly pondered when she was composing it.

"Where is the music score?" Ye Beixuan did not make any special comment on the coincidence in the song title, but asked her directly for the music score.

Li Xianglian hurriedly took out the music score and handed it to Ye Beixuan.

I took the music score and looked through it for a few seconds. It was quite complicated. I wasn't sure if I could play it with the jade flute. I decided to go back and try it myself first. It would be better to have a steady hand.

So he said, "Ye must go back and practice for a while. Only when you are proficient in it can you play with the young lady."

Li Xianglian said with a look of joy: "That's great. I have said everything. Xianglian will not disturb you any more. Please do as you please. Xianglian will take her leave now." After saying that, she stood up, bowed respectfully, and left gracefully.

Alas! After watching her leave, Ye Beixuan sighed secretly. They say that beauty is like a painting, beautiful women are pleasing to the eyes, and beautiful women are delicate and soft, but the kindness of a beauty is even harder to bear.

Shaking his head secretly, he stood up and left with his hands behind his back. He sneaked out through the back door because he might be seen by the audience and be hunted down.

Walking on the street with his hands behind his back, he looked left and right to see if he could buy some daily necessities to take back. Now he was considered a high-income person and had a huge sum of five taels of silver on him, so naturally he couldn't treat himself too badly.

After buying things, Ye Beixuan walked towards the house. Just as he was about to step into the bamboo forest, he realized someone was following him.

I didn’t pay attention to it before in the bustling city, but now in such a quiet environment, it is easy to notice it.

"Come out! I see you."

In the silence, the voice echoed but no figure appeared. Ye Beixuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, squatted down, picked up a stone, and threw it into the darkness.

"Aiya!" A shout rang out from the darkness. A girl about seventeen years old, dressed in red, covered her forehead with her hands and walked towards Ye Beixuan with anger in her eyes. "Why did you throw me?"

"You followed me and asked me why?" Ye Beixuan's tone was quite helpless. How could this girl be so unreasonable? She didn't come out when he called her. Who should he blame?

"The road is wide open, and we can each go our own way. Can't this heroine walk on the road?" The angry girl covered her forehead and asked loudly with her cheeks puffed out.

Ye Beixuan felt that this expression was both funny and cute.

"Tell me! What do you want from me?"

Having said this, the lovely young hero suddenly rubbed her hands between her legs, looking shy and embarrassed. The mark on her forehead left by the stone was squeezed into a line because of her embarrassed expression.

She said, "I want to know the follow-up of your story and want to listen to your story alone."

It turned out to be real offline! Ye Beixuan covered his forehead. If you often walk by the river, you will get your feet wet. The young hero showed an even more shy look after saying this. She was afraid that her behavior just now would cause misunderstanding. After all, it was not a good idea for a girl like her to chase a boy in the middle of the night.

"The story will be told tomorrow. I am a little tired today. If you disturb me, it will affect the editing of tomorrow's story. Please forgive me, lady."

As Ye Beixuan spoke, he twisted his neck to show that he was very tired.

"You haven't compiled it yet?" The girl showed a suspicious look, her eyes widening. She seemed to suddenly think of something and said, "Then go back and rest. I won't bother you anymore. Remember my name is Qin Ruoxi. If you can't remember it, I won't forgive you next time."

As if she was particularly afraid that her behavior would affect the compilation of the story, Qin Ruoxi ran away as if she was escaping, and her skills were quite good.

But she is just a wild girl who yearns for the martial arts world. If she sees the cruelty, she will probably no longer yearn for it. Shaking his head and watching her leave, Ye Beixuan suddenly felt something and turned his head to look to the other side.

A short old man with a cane in his hand walked over with a kind smile on his face.

This is? The Earth God?

He actually showed up. Could it be that there is another evil creature nearby?

"Baishan Town Landlord, nice to meet you, sir."

Having seen so many bizarre things, Ye Beixuan is no longer as helpless as he was at the beginning.

"What's the matter?"

Since someone came to my door in person, I couldn’t just not answer.

"It's like this. I reported to the City God of Yunfu County about your help in killing the Red Robe Fire Ghost. The City God came to Bashan Town in person and wanted to meet you. What do you think?" The land god said, holding his crutch and bowing.

Meeting a high-ranking official? But I'm not a high-ranking official! The City God has personally come to town from the county temple, so I can't refuse.

"In that case, may I ask the Earth Lord to lead the way?"

"please"

Seeing Ye Beixuan's affable demeanor, without any of the airs of those high-ranking figures, the land god had a very good impression of him. It was not like he had not seen those immortal palace disciples before, and those with slightly higher cultivation levels were all arrogant.

The two of them headed westward and passed by a village after about half an hour. A young man who was peeing in the village saw Ye Beixuan talking to the air and was so scared that he almost urinated.

After peeing, I quickly ran back and covered my head with the quilt. It was so fucking scary.

The two chatted freely along the way. Ye Beixuan seemed to suddenly think of something, so he took the initiative to ask, "Lord of the Land, I want to ask, are you familiar with this area?"

"I know everything about Bashan Town. Please feel free to tell me what you have to say, sir." The land god said respectfully, and even at this moment his mind was constantly thinking about the questions he might ask.

"It's like this, I have a friend named Zhao, who lives in Yunshui Town. He hasn't been home for many years and now wants to find his family." So Ye Beixuan informed the God of Land about the news of Zhao Yunge's family, hoping that he could help.

"I cannot leave the area of Bashan Town and I know nothing about matters outside the town. Please forgive me, sir. However, I think I can ask the City God for help with this matter. He will definitely know the answer." The God of Land responded respectfully.

"Oh, thank you very much."

Soon the two came to a land temple where a golden statue sat.

"Your Excellency, the Master has been brought here."
