Ye Gui

Baishan Yunfeng is located in the northwest of Lanfeng and Yugongfeng, next to Jiufeng. Although it is also towering into the sky, the pass of Jiufeng takes away most of the cold wind. Compared with other peaks of Baishan, it is much warmer here.

The old palace on the top of the mountain has been unoccupied for nearly ten thousand years, and the outer disciples only come to clean it when they are closed in recent years.

Most of these old palaces were left by the great gods before they left the Eastern Continent. Each palace is magnificent and resplendent, showing the majesty and preferences of each great god.

Baishan disciples are far away from the secular world, and have no feeling for festivals. It is only a habit to clean. Besides, they have spiritual power, so it is not difficult to clean.

It's not difficult, and they can escape the Yugong Peak for three to five days, which is cleaned every day. The outer disciples who are sent to clean up are happier than New Year's Eve.

But the winter wind howled past from the north, and the two outer disciples complained all the way: "Why should we go to Yunfeng? The three newly appointed elders are just the disciples of the Great Elder, and the oldest one is only in his 40s. Isn't it because there is no one who can become an elder at a young age? Hmph! Take a chicken feather as an arrow! Oops!"

The person who spoke was slapped by another person. He covered the back of his head and said angrily, "Zhixing, why did you hit me? Did I say something wrong?"

Zhi Xing said: "Qian Yi, they are all disciples of the inner sect, and those who can become elders must have extraordinary abilities, besides, the three elders are all hand-picked by the great god, do you have any objection to the decision of the great god?"

"I don't dare to object! I'm just... just angry. To go to Yunfeng, you have to pass through Jiufeng. The wind at Jiufeng Pass is so strong. They let us come because they don't want to come, and they bully us. You say Great God, it’s been so many days, I haven’t seen him show up again, and he doesn’t accept worship and offerings. Didn’t he serve the disciples of the gods before? How did he become a great god?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the wind suddenly stopped, and the pines and cypresses and firs in the mountain forest shook a few times and then stopped moving: "Huh? Why did the wind stop?"

"Strange! It's almost time to reach the pass. The wind should be getting stronger and stronger. Why did it stop?"

"Ahem!" A child in white came out from behind the fir trees not far away, "Master asked me to pick you up, you two...well, please follow me." Xiao Zhuang didn't know what to call these two 20-somethings. year-old outer disciple.

Zhixing recognized this child as a disciple of the Great God, and the current Lord Servant hurriedly pulled the two people around him to prostrate to the ground together: "Master Servant!"

Xiao Zhuang waved his hands in a panic: "No, no, no, two... senior brothers, get up!" He was so anxious that he was about to cry, and suddenly everyone respected him that day, and he left with his master before he got used to it. He was terrified when he met a disciple from the same sect who treated him like this.

The two got up, and just now they questioned the Great God Qian Yi thought, could the Lord God Attendant hear what he said just now?The wind stopped so coincidentally that he felt a little bit in his heart, the Great God knows everything, it's over, it's over, it's over...

Xiaozhuang led the way, and there was no wind and snow at Jiufeng Pass, so the whole picture was revealed. The yellow-brown weeds were blown by the perennial storm against the ground and fell in one direction, looking like a rough sea from a distance.

Xiao Zhuang walked in front, his back was tense, and he could see the tension.

"Master Godservant..." Just as Zhixing opened his mouth, Xiaozhuang immediately turned around and said, "This senior brother, my name is Xiaozhuang..."

Zhixing smiled and said, "Okay, Xiaozhuang, the Great God asked you to pick us up, but do you have anything to tell us?"

Xiao Zhuang asked: "Aren't you going to Yunfeng? Master is in Yunfeng. You go to Haosheng to clean it. Master may live in Yunfeng permanently."

While the three of them were talking at the pass of Jiufeng Mountain, there was a roaring sound in the distance to the north, and the wind and snow came back again!

Zhixing and Qianyi became nervous. The blizzard at Jiufeng Pass was notoriously terrifying, and if one was not careful, they would be blown away for several miles.They are only outer disciples with limited spiritual power, and cannot pass through here with confidence like inner disciples or elders.

Seeing Xiao Zhuang's gloomy face, the two of them seemed to be worried. Although the Lord God Attendant sounds powerful, he is just a child, so they directly protected him behind him: "Xiao Zhuang, with our combined spiritual power, we can pass Here, it's all right!"

"Hmm..." Before Xiao Zhuang could speak, the wind and snow came in a flash, and countless ice balls were mixed in the snow, scraping across his cheeks like knives.

The barrier erected by the disciples of the outer sect was instantly blown away, just like the thatched huts by the flood waters, when a wave passes by, not even a blade of grass is left for you.

Suddenly, spiritual power surged behind him, and a perfect barrier surrounded all three of them.Xiao Zhuang was still timid, and whispered: "Brothers, let's go quickly, don't keep Master waiting."

Qian Yi was surprised and said: "Xiaozhuang! Is this your enchantment?" After he finished speaking, he felt stupid, it wasn't Xiaozhuang's, could it be his and Zhixing's?Embarrassed, he gave a thumbs up and said, "You are worthy, you are worthy of being God Attendant!"

Zhixing followed behind and asked, "Master Godservant." He didn't dare to address him casually anymore, "Are you the one who stopped the wind and snow just now?"

Xiao Zhuang scratched his head and said, "It's not me, it's Master... He said he only gave me half a quarter of an hour, and he would leave me alone when the time was up. It was my slow walk that delayed..." He smiled shyly, " Let's go quickly."

Jun Peak is steep, unlike Yu Gong Peak, where people walk all the year round and it is as clean as new. The stone steps below the mountainside are covered with moss and snow slag.

Yunfeng Chenxiang Palace was originally the residence of Chenxiang God. The palace wall is silvery white like clouds hanging thinly.

The temple seems to know that it has ushered in a new god, and even the ethereal and single white has become colorful.

Xiao Zhuang took a few steps and walked through the tall palace gate: "These two have worked hard to clean the Chenxiang Palace these few days. I, I have to go to practice. Please do your own thing." After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry.

Zhixing and Qianyi looked at each other for a while, and looked up at the towering peak of Yunfeng tacitly.

There are several small shrines at the gate of the palace, and further upwards are like castles in the air. Under the cover of pines and cypresses, you can see some clusters of flowers, exquisite pavilions and winding water. This bitterly cold place with snow all year round has the tenderness of Yingzhou.

Although the two are only outer disciples, because of their spiritual power, they went to Baishan Mountain at the age of six or seven, and have been practicing in Yugong Peak. Such a beautiful scene has only been told by the inner disciples who went down the mountain with the elders .

The two of them didn't dare to stay, and continued to go up the mountain, their hearts beating, what should they do if they meet a great god...

Suddenly a voice came from the depths of the garden: "...I'd better go down the mountain earlier..."

A young man walked out of the bamboo forest path, and the two of them were surprised. Two long silver antlers grew on the forehead of the young man in black robes, and the branches were like ancient trees.

Zhixing heard from his senior brother in the inner sect that only Luyaoshan Shishi can have such huge antlers on the Dongzhou continent.

But Shan Shi is still a monster even if he has a high cultivation base, Baishan is not something a monster can set foot on at will.

Shan Shi's beautiful black eyes only stayed on the two of them for a moment, then he turned around and asked, "How did you plan?"

Another person came out from the bamboo grove, handsome and elegant in a blue brocade gown, and replied respectfully: "The Great God said that there will be no need to set up barriers in the future, and I also want to go back to Baijuan Mountain earlier, and remove the barriers after the New Year is over. Demons and humans can coexist, we juniors have never experienced it, has Mr. Shanshi experienced it?"

Shan Shi nodded and said: "I was transformed in the mountains near Hongzhou City. At that time, I was bullied by a big monster and injured. A young man rescued me. He healed my wounds and left. People are very Kind……"

A little demon in rigid form was saved by mortals, and since then he has shown kindness to all things in the world. Even if his eyes were gouged out, he did not forget this kindness. This is cause and effect.

Shan Shi continued: "You and I are demons, even if we are blessed by a great god, it's not good to be here."

Xianhe smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Xianhe is very grateful to Master Shanshi for saving his life. There is nothing in return. I am willing to obey Master Shanshi's orders in this life."

Shan Shi pointed to his restored antlers and said: "What you owe me, Lord Digui begged the Great God to pay it back, you don't have to worry about it."

"What are you talking about?" Snow Leopard jumped down from the top of the rockery, and when it landed on the ground, it turned into a silver-haired young man, and grabbed Xianhe's shoulders, "Little wolf, do you miss me?"

Xianhe wasn't very shy at all, but Shanshi was a senior with golden pupils that Wan Yao admired, and in front of him was like being in front of an elder, so he pushed the clingy man away with all his strength.

"...It's nothing." Shanshi raised his head to look at the clear blue sky, and felt a hint of spring in the cold winter.

Digui and Xianhe sent Shanshi away, only to find that Zhixing and Qianyi were foolishly poking at the other end of the garden and dared not move.

Di Gui shouted: "Hey! What are you doing?"

Whether Baishan is an inner disciple or an outer disciple, there is no one who does not know this famous beast.The two bowed and said: "Master Digui, the new year is coming, we are the disciples sent by Yu Gongfeng to clean Chenxiang Palace."

Of course Di Gui knew about this custom, but he was not interested. He waved his hands and said, "I don't care about this. You can clean it yourself." After speaking, he took Xianhe's hand and ran towards the small temple down the mountain.

Zhixing and Qianyi have been cleaning the Jiande Palace in Cuimiao Peak at this time in recent years, and the habit is to clean the main palace first.So without thinking about it, I walked through the garden and walked along the promenade to the main palace on the mountain.

In winter, the sky is high, and the main palace of Yunfeng is misty and misty. The sky above is much deeper than that seen from the bottom of the mountain. Walking through a bright red single-arch wooden bridge, it seems to have entered another world.

Both of them couldn't help but lighten their steps, for fear of disturbing the tranquility and sanctity.

The gate of Chenxiang Palace was open, and the two walked in lightly. The inside of the palace was similar to Wuming Palace, not as deserted as Wuming Palace, with traces of life.

Qian Yi nervously called out: "Great God?"

No one answered, they breathed a sigh of relief, maybe they weren't there.Since the Great God was not there, the two immediately started cleaning, thinking that they would finish before the Great God came back, and then hurried to clean the small temple at the foot of the mountain.

The outer disciples may not even be able to set up a complete barrier, but they are good at cleaning it.

"Let's fetch water first. I see that this place is very clean, and it can be cleaned up in half a day." Zhixing said, and the two came out of Chenxiang Palace and walked around to the garden behind the palace.

"This water..." Qian Yi looked at the crystal clear water in the garden and was troubled, "Can this water really be used to wipe the table and sweep the floor?"

"Is this the legendary holy water?"

"This is ordinary water, you can use it as you like." A voice suddenly came from behind, and the two were startled in shock, turned around and knelt down on the ground: "Great God!"

With a stinky face, Bai Yin ordered in a gloomy tone: "Please clean it up, and bring all the scriptures from Wuming Palace here." After speaking, he left.

How could Zhixing and Qianyi dare to procrastinate, they didn't care about cleaning, and immediately sent a sound transmission to the seniors at Yugong Peak, and a group of people carried bookcases to Yunfeng Peak in the evening.

Hakuin looked at the mountain of scriptures in the side hall of Chenxiang Palace, but he was completely uninterested.

Qian Yi whispered: "God, what's wrong?"

Zhixing tugged at his sleeve, this idiot, no matter how soft his voice is, the Great God can still hear it!

Hakuin sighed sullenly, "I'm bored without Ah Yan..."

"..."

"..."

Qian Yi knew that the Ah Yan the Great God spoke of was Lei Yan, a junior general of Shenyu Kingdom. According to legend, the two had a fateful friendship and their relationship was very good.

He was bolder, and said: "Why didn't the Great God go to find Mr. Lei?"

Hakuin sighed: "We quarreled..."

Zhixing came up with an idea: "Then the great god is going to coax him?" After he finished speaking, he was shocked, it's over!What the hell am I talking about!

Sure enough, Bai Yin was silent for a while and said: "But it's his fault...he insisted on looking for Li Jingzhu..."

Seeing Bai Yin clenched his fists and looking very angry, Qian Yi asked, "How long has Mr. Lei been gone?"

Hakuin: "He left in the morning and hasn't come back for a whole day!"

"..."

"I'll give him two days, and if I don't come back, I'll just..." His voice became smaller and smaller, like an abandoned puppy.

They didn't dare to talk about the great god's affairs, and they lowered their heads and dared not say more.

Hakuin wrung his fingers and stared at a storybook in front of him. On the cover was written the title "A Sprinkle of Red Apricot Out of the Low Wall" in lower letters with hairpin flowers. He clenched his back teeth and clenched his hand too hard , the scroll was crumpled.

"It's getting dark! Don't we have to stay overnight!"

He threw the book away, and his figure disappeared instantly, only a handful of snowflakes could be seen swirling on the ground.
