I want to seal the knife

Chapter 77 - Lingxi Lake
Chapter 78－Lingxi Lake

Mu Lan puckered her mouth and stared at Xiao Po puzzled. "Well, I don't care about you, let's go, Po Wood, follow me!" She has always been spoiled at home, and once she reveals her identity, she will make a big show and won't come to help Xiao Po anymore.

Boxi walked out side by side with her, Xiao Po hesitated for a moment, and followed her.

The three of them left the Zhang Mansion, got on their horses and left. After walking for a while, when they were about to leave the small town, Xiao Po suddenly called out: "Mulan!"

Mu Lan turned his face, eyes blinking in doubt, "Broken wood, what's the matter with you?"

Xiao Po said: "You guys have to go home, if I don't go with you, I will go home too."

Mulan frowned, "Pomu, I'm your savior, why don't you listen to me, follow me carefully, don't try to run, you're hurt so badly, I'll go home and ask my dad to save you. "

Xiao Po knew that Mulan was the saint who returned to the Great Paramona, and he was very sad at that time. Now Tubo is fighting with Huihui, and he even injured the elders of the Great Paramona Hedos and Long Xingkong a few days ago , Now that Mulan is going home, how can he follow.

But Xiao Po didn't want to leave Mulan, and after several struggles, he still said he wanted to leave.

Mulan didn't know his thoughts, tilted his head, very puzzled.

"That's right, why didn't you come with us!" Bo Xi was also a little puzzled, Xiao Po was kind and handsome, and the key was to cook delicious food, without him, their journey would be very boring .

Seeing that Xiao Po didn't speak, Mu Lan said again, "But I'm afraid I'll scold you, then I won't scold you in the future."

Xiao Po looked at the girl's bright cheeks, he couldn't let go, and finally said: "Okay, I'll still be your little follower."

Mulan chuckled, "That's right, you'll be good like this, broken wood, come here quickly, and walk alongside me." Xiao Po patted Zi Dian, the horse's hoof flickered, and followed the pace.

The three of them stopped and walked along the way, staying in the inn whenever there was a town, otherwise they would sleep in the wild.Xiao Po's injury was adjusted by Mu Lan with the elixir, and gradually healed a lot, but there was always a dull pain in the meridians, and he couldn't arouse his true energy.

Fortunately, this didn't affect Xiao Po's hunting and cooking, so he prepared delicious food for the two girls in different ways along the way, which made the two girls enjoy it even more, completely forgetting the punishment they would receive if they went out secretly.

After seven days, the front view slowly opened up, and I often saw a large piece of grassland, the grassland was green and fertile, and there were often shepherds driving large herds of cattle and sheep.

It was the first time for Xiao Po to see such a scenery beyond the Great Wall, he temporarily forgot about his injuries, and felt much more at ease.The second daughter's expression turned melancholy, and she often deliberately slowed down her pace.

But after walking another day, he still saw the city of Sarhan. Xiao Po pointed to the city on the flat slope in the distance, and asked, "Is that the city of Sarhan over there? It's really big!"

The two girls had their own thoughts, but no one answered him.Xiao Po was bored, and felt bored in his heart. When he came here, he couldn't guess what he would encounter next. He didn't know whether it was good or bad, but since he decided to come back with Mulan, he was also prepared in his heart , no matter what happens, he will protect Mulan.

The three of them quickly entered the city of Sarhan, Xiao Po had no intention of having fun, and just followed closely behind Mulan.

After entering the city for a few steps, I saw a team coming in front of me. First a man was undressed and bare shoulders, which was very eye-catching. He was dressed in a fine fur, but his hair style was a bit strange, the top of his head was bald, and only the back of his head was left. He had a lock of black hair tied behind his head in a whip.

When the man saw the three of them, he hurried over. Bo Xi stopped his horse and called out, "Second brother---"

This man is the second prince Wanyan Bizan who has returned to his country, and he is now placed in the city of Sarhan to preside over political affairs.

Wanyan Boyan came over and pulled the rein, "Boxi, so you are here. My father wrote yesterday, saying that you have not seen you for more than ten days, and I am going to take someone to find you. Just see you, hurry up with me." Go, tomorrow I will send someone to take you back to Mufu City."

Mu Lan also leaned forward and called out, "Second Senior Brother."

Wanyan Bo praised: "Master is also looking for you everywhere, I don't think you two naughty people ran out to play together, I will send you back to Luosheng Valley now."

The two women looked at each other, and it seemed that there was endless grievance, which was self-evident.Bo Xi had already walked behind the second elder brother, looked at Mu Lan and said, "Mulan, I'll come to play with you in a while!" Then he looked at Xiao Po, "And you, you must obediently listen to Mu Lan." She After speaking, he turned away, as if he didn't want to watch the two leave.Mu Lan waved his hand to say goodbye to her, but also looked unhappy and quite sad.

Wanyan Boxan noticed Xiao Po at this time, and turned to Mu Lan, "Little Junior Sister, who is this person?"

Mu Lan said: "He is my father's new student, but you haven't seen him before. I won't tell you anymore. I'm going home. Second senior brother, come to Luosheng Valley to see me when you are free!"

Wanyan Boxan nodded, called two guards, and sent Mu Lan and the others away.Along the way, Xiao Po didn't speak, just followed Mu Lan closely, but his heart was pounding, who would be the first to see when he arrived at Mu Lan's house.

Luosheng Valley is located in the northwest corner of Sarhan City, four or five miles away from the city. This is a long and narrow valley with dense forests on both sides and gurgling water. Compared with Sarhan City, it is much less wide. Open, but a lot more quiet.Entering Taniguchi, the world inside gradually becomes wider, like a world outside the world, a scene of its own, and some scenes of Jiangnan scenery.

Xiao Po has never been to Jiangnan in the Central Plains, but he has heard his mother describe it many times before.At this time, I was thinking of people, thinking of my mother for a while, and looking up at Mulan for a while, with mixed emotions in my heart.Meeting Mu Lan changed his whole being, disrupted his plans, and buried his longing for his mother.

Xiao Po quickly suppressed the thoughts in his heart, feeling that he was not filial, could it be that he has really grown up, as he always said to the world, when he has a wife, he forgets his mother.Taking a sneak peek at Mulan, her expression was flat, Xiao Po thought to himself: "Forget it, I'll go and see Mulan's house and leave."

With his thoughts settled down, Xiao Po let go of his steps and became relieved.

At this time, when I walked down again, I started to meet people in twos and threes, most of them were young people in their 20s. When they saw Mulan, they saluted respectfully and called them saints.

After walking a few more steps, there are more houses in front of us, and from time to time, we can see teams of dozens of people practicing Kung Fu.The two escorting guards bid farewell at this moment, and said, "Saint, you go back by yourself, since it is inconvenient for us to enter again, we will go back first."

Mu Lan nodded, stopped his horse, looked at the houses in the distance, and said: "Brat wood, I will take you to find your father first, my father is a very kind person, you stay with him, don't run around! "

Xiao Po nodded in agreement, Mu Lan dismounted, and also told Xiao Po to come down, two maids came over there, Mu Lan ordered them to lead the horse to the stable, then turned around and pulled Xiao Po, turned to the side, walked along the house Outside the wall, walk towards the edge of the canyon.

After walking for a while, the house was no longer seen, Xiao Po turned his head and looked around, it turned out that he had arrived in a small mountain forest.The sound of running water can be heard faintly ahead.

Xiao Po unexpectedly asked: "Mulan, what is this place?"

Mu Lan said: "This is Lingxi Lake in the back mountain. Daddy lives here all the year round." She led Xiao Po forward, and after turning a few steps, finally her eyes widened, and a small lake appeared in front of her.

The lake is about [-] feet wide. There is a cliff on one side, and a waterfall hangs on the wall. The clear stream pours into the lake from the waterfall. The water mist is blown by the mountain wind, and the whole Lingxi Lake is filled with water mist. Inside, it is faintly like a fairy mansion.

Before Xiao Po could see enough of the water scene, Mu Lan pointed to the cliff, "Daddy lives there!"

Xiao Po saw that there was a hole in the cliff, which was formed naturally. Water mist rose outside the hole, and a rainbow was formed in the sunlight. The rainbow was very small, but it just covered the top of the hole, adding a lot of scenery.

Xiao Po blinked, and a middle-aged man appeared at the entrance of the cave. This man appeared very suddenly, but he was dressed in a fluttering white robe, and he didn't feel abrupt under the backdrop of the water mist.

"Daddy------" Mulan shouted after running and jumping.A smile appeared on the face of the middle-aged man, as pure and clear as a stream. This was Mulan's father, Yuan Taiqing, who was also the great protector of the Great Brahmin.His status is second only to the Holy Hierarch, it can be said that he is under one person and above ten thousand people.

Yuan Taiqing's figure flashed, jumped out of the hole, and arrived in front of Mu Lan in an instant. He opened his arms and embraced the rushing Mu Lan into his arms, "You child, where have you been these days? You still put me The porcelain bottle containing the medicine was stolen." He sounded like he was blaming him, but his expression was friendly, without any anger at all.

Mu Lan coquettishly said: "I'm so bored in the valley, why not go out for a walk, you won't accompany me to play, so I have no choice but to ask Boxi to go out."

Yuan Taiqing stretched out his hand to caress the child's back, and smiled softly, "Well, it's my fault, I didn't accompany you well, but it's dangerous outside, and you don't know martial arts, dad is worried about you."

Mu Lan's eyes rolled, and she got out of his father's embrace, "Daddy, mother will definitely punish me this time, you have to intercede for me!"

Stretching out her hand to scratch her daughter's head, Yuan Taiqing smiled slightly, "Understood. You must have come to me to intercede without seeing your mother. Don't be naughty and go to see your mother. I don't know how worried she is about you."

After the father and daughter finished talking, Yuan Taiqing turned to ask who Xiao Po was. Mu Lan came over and pulled Xiao Po, "Po Mu, my father is a master of medicine, and he will definitely heal your injury."

"Uncle!" Xiao Po called out as a courtesy, but he didn't know what to say next, so he just kept silent.

Yuan Taiqing nodded slightly, "What's your name?" Xiao Po originally wanted to make up a fake name, but he thought he couldn't deceive Mu Lan's father, so he gave his real name.

Yuan Taiqing pointed at Mu Lan's nose, and said softly: "You child, don't you have a name, why is it called broken wood!"

Mu Lan pouted, "Broken wood, do you like me calling you that!"

Xiao Po nodded, Mu Lan turned to his father again and said, "Look, he agreed."

Yuan Taiqing shook his head and smiled lightly, "Go and see your mother, Xiao Po will be taken care of by me, and father will take good care of him." Mu Lan walked away lightly, turning her agile eyes to stare at Xiao Po, " Broken wood, you stay here with my father, but don't run around, I will accompany you when I am free."

Xiao Po waved goodbye, Mu Lan's skirt flickered, and quickly disappeared by the lake.
