A mysterious apprentice

It's just that the plan can't keep up with the change.

Although it was only last night that he made up his mind to train Xiao Zheng hard to make him the number one swordsman in the Central Plains, Bai Yuan changed his philosophy the next day.

Swordsmanship can be practiced anytime, anywhere as long as you have perseverance, but once you miss something, you can't do it again.

"Xiao Zheng, let's take a good look around the closed city today, especially the manor on the east side of the city. It is said that it was left over from the previous dynasty, and it is full of all kinds of flowers." After breakfast, Bai Yuan heard After finishing the long series of words Liu Fengrou said, he couldn't wait to start discussing with Xiao Zheng.

Although it was a discussion, it was impossible for Xiao Zheng to raise objections.

"I assure you, it's really beautiful there, and, how to put it, it's as if there are incredible immortals there. Although no one takes care of it, it's not overwhelmed by weeds."

So when he was a child, every time he came to Wanhe Mountain Villa, he would go to that manor to play, but he didn't have time to go there when he grew up, and today happened to be an excellent opportunity.

"Besides, we can also go to the store to see if there is anything we need. Because of the shortened schedule, we now have a lot more money in hand." Bai Yuan patted his small purse, which was bulging "You can really say what you want this time, and you can also buy a few more clothes. What you are wearing now are all my clothes."

After Bai Yuan finished speaking, he turned around and began to mutter to himself, thinking about the list of items to buy today.

Xiao Zheng glanced at him, but was cut off just as he was about to follow, Liu Fengrou suddenly jumped in front of him from the side, and greeted him for the first time: "I'm sorry, I didn't do anything yesterday because of various things. I have time to talk to you. My name is Liu Fengrou, the owner of Wanhe Villa, and a friend of your master Bai Yuan for many years."

"Well...my name is Xiao Zheng."

Liu Fengrou looked at the young man with a motionless expression in front of him in surprise, feeling an indescribable sense of wonder, didn't he even move his brows.

"Thank you for taking care of my master." Perhaps seeing the doubt in Liu Fengrou's eyes, Xiao Zheng added, "I will study hard."

Then, as if he was worried about being questioned, he walked away quickly.

Shao Yipeng came to Liu Fengrou from the side: "Not bad kid."

"Hmm, it should be said that it is so."

The two exchanged glances with each other, then Liu Fengrou turned around and shouted loudly to Bai Yuan who was about to go out: "By the way, do you want to go to the temple with us? If you go now, you can ask for a signature. Here are the marriage signatures , it can be said to be quite effective.”

Bai Yuan was still a little interested when he heard the front, but his face became stiff when he heard the last one.

It's okay for Liu Fengrou to worry about Fang Shuyan, why should he worry about me?

"Okay, okay, it's just a suggestion, it's okay if you want to hang out with Xiao Zheng alone." Sensing Bai Yuan's hostility, Liu Fengrou raised her hands as if begging for mercy.

After leaving Wanhe Villa, Bai Yuan and Xiao Zheng turned to the street, saying that if they wanted to buy clothes for him, they would have to buy a bunch of them.

"No problem. Basically most of the shops here belong to the villa. After we buy it, we can ask them to send it back for us. Don't worry."

Of course Xiao Zheng couldn't be worried, to be honest he didn't have any specific concepts about these things, but he believed in Bai Yuan.

Once he seriously started to buy things, Bai Yuan was not the same as before. Bai Yuan, who has traveled outside for many years, can be said to have quite a lot of experience in shopping.

When can you bargain, when should you talk about favors, and when should you pay honestly.

He knows the way of these things clearly.

"Xiao Zheng, how about this dress, it looks very beautiful."

Bai Yuan took an ink-colored gown and compared it to Xiao Zheng's body. Speaking of which, this guy was almost as tall as him at some point, and he was even a little shorter than him a few days ago.

Didn't eat anything special either.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Zheng noticed that Bai Yuan was in a daze after looking at him again. It would be fine if he was at home, but the boss next to him was still there.

"Ah, ah, it's nothing." Bai Yuan didn't answer, but asked if he didn't have the same style of clothes as the one in his hand, "If it's possible, I want white ones, and it's better if the patterns are exactly the same. "

Xiao Zheng picked up the dress and looked at it for himself. There was a flower embroidered on it, but it was not feminine, but full of indescribable strength.

He quite likes it.

Bai Yuan wandered around in various ready-to-wear shops and bought a total of five sets before stopping, and counting the incidental purchases of his own, there were a total of ten sets in total.

"After returning to Bai's house, you can find an embroiderer to do it. If you just buy ready-made clothes, you still feel that something is missing."

The two were sitting in the tavern, Xiao Er hadn't delivered the ordered food yet.

"As a result, half a day has passed. I must go to that garden to have a look later in the afternoon, but I can't go shopping in other places."

Bai Yuan lowered his head in distress. It was alright at first, but then he couldn't control himself and kept asking Xiao Zheng to try on clothes. He always felt that every piece was good, but it was impossible to buy everything, so The choice is quite painful.

If only I had money.

"It's okay, even if you miss it, you can come back later, and maybe tomorrow." Seeing that Bai Yuan was really distressed, Xiao Zheng tried to comfort him.

But Bai Yuan shook his head. Although what Xiao Zheng said was correct, he only wanted to make Xiao Zheng the best swordsman in the Central Plains yesterday, and today he dragged him around just to be able to stroll around for a while longer.

He scratched his hair, but feeling different things was a kind of travelling.

"Guest, the dishes are ready, please take your time." Xiaoer brought up the dishes one by one, and finally came with a bottle of wine.

Without thinking about it, she knew that Liu Fengrou probably ordered it, she was really considerate.

Although Xiao Zheng had never drunk alcohol, he had absolutely no reason to be afraid of alcohol. He poured a small amount into the glass, and then took a sip cautiously.

Okay, nothing special to ask.

Bai Yuan was about to laugh out loud, Xiao Zheng really looked like a child in some places.

But most of the time it has nothing to do with the child.

In the afternoon, of course, they went to the garden he mentioned according to Bai Yuan's arrangement. Although Bai Yuan said it was on the east side of the city, they had to go out of the city to see it.

Fortunately, there are still roads, and it can be seen that they are not going to some valley or cave.

Bai Yuan walked in front to cheer Xiao Zheng up. In fact, he couldn't remember the exact location, but he only remembered that it should be around here.

However, the road ahead was completely blocked by trees, and he didn't see the narrow road leading to the manor.

"When I was young, I could get there very quickly as long as I ran out of the city gate. Why didn't I see it after so long?" Bai Yuan began to beat his heart. He glanced at Xiao Zheng who was silently following him from the corner of his eye, and began to think about who he was. It's not that the direction is reversed.

Xiao Zheng had been staring at the ground in a daze, but suddenly raised his head: "Wait, Master, I seem to know where the place you mentioned is."

"Hey?"

Bai Yuan, who had decided to go back home, was fixed in place by Xiao Zheng's words. Immediately afterwards, Xiao Zheng began to walk around, gesturing with his hands in the air.

"...Well, Xiao Zheng..." Bai Yuan blinked blankly, not knowing what he was doing.

Xiao Zheng started to draw circles on the ground after he finished gesturing. He took the time to raise his head and said, "It will be over soon, Master, this is not difficult."

As if to confirm what he said, after he drew another circle, there were rustling sounds from the originally silent woods.

It's not that the birds are flying, it's more like the ground is constantly shaking.

Then, the originally blocked road was opened, and at the end of the road, the gate of the manor could be seen.

Then Bai Yuan happened to be standing at the intersection of this road.

"Wait, Xiao Zheng, how do you know this kind of thing? Was it taught by your holy religion?"

Xiao Zheng nodded: "Well, there are books left by the immortals there. Although it is no longer possible to use immortal methods, such things can still be done."

As he said so, he walked into the passage first.

Bai Yuan looked at everything in front of him, everything seemed to be as natural as it was at the beginning, but before he took a breath, it was still a quiet forest.

He suddenly discovered that the holy religion that Xiao Zheng belonged to did not seem to be a closed sect that simply believed in legends.

Next, the things in the manor are no different from what Bai Yuan described to Xiao Zheng before. There are large areas of bright flowers, different colors and different flavors. If they are mixed together, it will definitely not make people feel comfortable, but in this space, All good things are quite harmonious.

"So this is not a mysterious manor that everyone can come to, but a secret manor that only special people come. I always feel a little hairy in my heart." Bai Yuan lowered his head and stroked the swaying flowers twice. The dew hasn't evaporated yet, "It feels inexplicably incredible. By the way, although it's unlikely to be related to your leader, it should be related to the Holy Church, right?"

Xiao Zheng looked at the pattern on the building and denied it: "I haven't seen this kind of texture in the sect, and besides the leader, none of us should have left the snowy area."

Bai Yuan really wanted to ask, are you really sure, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say anything.

Since Xiao Zheng said so, he should believe him.

Hiss--

A strange sound rang out, and then the whole flower bushes began to emit this sound like an echo.

"What's wrong?" Bai Yuan stood up and looked back at Xiao Zheng.

"..." Xiao Zheng didn't have time to speak, he quickly pulled out the long sword on his back, and the next moment he just thought about Bai Yuan and slashed down.
