Chapter 83 (1/2)
So Yu Linglong opened a full price, 3000 Liang silver, when he went out to travel for a few days.
Mu Shi quickly agreed to Yu Linglong's terms. It is estimated that she also saw through. She worked hard for General Yu to guard the family property. In the end, it was just a whip. It was better to spend money to buy freedom.
So one gave money, another gave people, and everyone was happy.
I don't know why, King Xu didn't come to the jade mansion to harass her these days. Yu Linglong finally got quiet for a while. However, the two girls, Hemerocallis and ling'er, hide and murmur when they have nothing to do. Yu Linglong doesn't need to think about what they are studying.
What's the matter with love!
When Yu Linglong learned that she was going to pick up old lady Yu, she suddenly remembered the horse she had snatched from King Xu. The way up the mountain should not be very easy. She was not in the mood to go up in a rickety sedan chair.
So, when it came to pick up the old lady, Yu Linglong ordered Hemerocallis to guard the house in the orchid garden. She only took ling'er and a few servant girls and set out.
Let ling'er sit on the carriage prepared for old lady Yu, while Yu Linglong herself rides the moon chasing, enjoying the scenery all the way, and goes up the mountain in a good mood.
The place where old lady Yu practiced was a humble nunnery in the western suburb of the capital. It took about half a day to get there from the city. Although Yu Linglong got up early, she still arrived at the end of Shenshi.
A mother who had come to deliver things to old lady Yu said to Yu Linglong, ”fourth miss, this mountain is called Cuihua Mountain. It's heard that Xihe ancestor became an immortal here. Look over there, it's said that people can often see the spirit of immortality. It's really a place of geomantic omen.”
Yu Linglong raised her eyes and saw that the mountain was not very high. It was full of lush woods. Looking at it, she felt relaxed and happy. If it was the place where the mother said that the ancestor was cultivating immortals, it would be really interesting.
On the way up the mountain, Yu Linglong was not in a hurry. She walked slowly by the reins of chasing the moon. After a long time in the manger in the backyard of Yufu, she suddenly saw the green mountains and green waters, and was full of energy. From time to time, she ran up a few steps and opened a distance with the horse drawn by ling'er and other maids. Obviously, she disdained to keep pace with the horses pulling the carriage.
It seems that people, like horses, sometimes need a little time to be alone.
Turning around a mountain depression, Yu Linglong suddenly felt something wrong with her surroundings. The vigilance she had developed for many years had been deeply rooted in her bone marrow and became her instinct. At the moment, the mountain breeze around her was slight and the grass was dependent on her. However, she felt sensitively that there was someone nearby.
”Who!” Fluttering long hair to fling, jade Linglong side head looking back, looking at the roadside that piece of forest.
There was a slight noise, but it was far away from near. I don't know whether it's the rustling leaves blown by the mountain wind, or the sound of some animals escaping in fear.
Yu Linglong's eyes are slightly narrowed. In the forest covered with leaves, you can see a figure that seems to be vigorous, but she doesn't say a word. Obviously, she has no intention to appear.
After a brief pause, Yu Linglong's feet gently touched the horse's belly in pursuit of the moon. The moon chasing spirit eased her steps and left slowly.
Maybe someone was doing some shady business here, and she accidentally ran into her.
She knows the rules of the road. If people don't attack me, I won't. Since neither of them intended to embarrass her, a young woman, she had better not meddle.
There was no sound in the grove in the depression.
Behind him came the sound of ling'er and a few servant girls laughing and joking, without noticing the strange surrounding.
