The jade banquet is opened to sit on the flowers, and the feathers are flying and the moon is drunk.

——Anonymous

"I vaguely remember the last time Lingting's mantra stopped, it seemed that something happened in the mountain. I wonder if the Feiyunding summoned me this time to discuss this matter."

On the mountain road to Feiyunding, the Lord of the Sihai Hall was guessing why Feiyunding was called this time.

The boy walking on the mountain road, idle, began to recall what happened in the year. In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will feel that your current life is like in a dream.

Originally, he was traveling around Raozhou City and was thinking about making a living all day long. Even when he was listening to the old man’s lecture in Jijia’s private school, he had to have pots, pans, spoons and seats in the restaurant. A poor boy like him was really inferior to everyone. How could he think of today’s situation when he was running in the dust and dust?

"I have nothing to do in front of the bamboo, and I read the unfinished book among the flowers." My life on Luofu Mountain is like a god-like life.

"It's not in vain that I was so firm in my heart toward Taoism!"

The young man joked with him. Although he persisted in applying to the old Taoist Qinghe for education, he never expected that the situation would be today. At that time, it was just for food and clothing.

"I don't know what to call today. But there is no need to think too much; anyway, life is not enough now. If there is any bad thing, you can go back to Raozhou and resume your old career."

Although I was thinking this in my mind, there was nothing bad about Feiyunding summoning several times before. I guess it was almost the same this time, so it would be fine if I went there and listened casually.

This time, Xingyan himself did not expect that Feiyunding summoned him today and he was the protagonist!

It turned out that Duan Xuanhuai, the prefect of the South China Sea, went to Luofu Mountain today, issued a jade certificate on behalf of the court, and appointed Zhang Xingyan, the Taoist priest from Shangqing in Raozhou, as the Zhongsan doctor.

When accepting the decree of the prefect, the new sermon Zhang Xingyan was dizzy when he heard it. He could hardly remember the specific words and sentences. He only knew that the general meaning was that his family was rich, with the immortal mountains being natural and natural, and he was diligent in practicing morality to help eliminate demons later. Therefore, after many days of searching and observing, he believed that Zhang Xingyan, the Taoist priest of Shangqing, was famous and outstanding, and was purely filial, so he asked the provincial government to report to the officials and the officials to report to them, and specially eliminated the order of the sermon. The court approved the report and gave him 100 acres of good paddy fields on the outskirts of Raozhou, thinking that Zhang Xingyan's parents' care for their elderly care...

This decree was heard by Xingyan at that time, and he was really able to catch up with the spiritual fairy sound like Ju Ying's girl. For him, this was a sudden great joy! Although the Zhongsan doctor and Taizhong doctor were similar to that of the Yin-Green Guanglu doctor and the Golden-Purple Guanglu doctor; however, such a Sanguan official was basically only awarded to famous families, and most of them were respected old people, "all the officials were old and old"; young mountain people like Xingyan were completely incompatible with these ranks. Even the most crazy young man had never dared to think about such good things. Because for him, he could not think of them at all.

And now, this impossible thing has really happened!

I had eaten at Feiyunding, and the boy walking on the rocky path back to the mountain is still dizzy. The congratulations from the prefect, the head, the master, the master and the uncle still echo in his ears. The hard stone path under his feet has now become as soft as cotton. When he walks on it, it seems that he can't borrow strength, and his whole body seems to be about to fly.

"Ha~ Now practice sword flying, maybe you will succeed..."

This new Zhongsan doctor suddenly had such an idea in his mind.

When returning to Qiandiao Cliff, the first thing to do was to let Qiongzu, who had the least strength, twist it hard on his arm. This little girl has always heard Brother Xingyan's words the most, so she really made Lord Zhang scream:

"I didn't expect the little girl to have such great power!"

After confirming that it was not in the dream, Xingyan solemnly announced the good news with the two members of the hall, and took out the jade document for them to pass on.

Although Xue Yi Qiongju didn't understand the meaning of this title, after hearing Xingyan's explanation, he roughly knew that the title was hard-won and was considered an honor. So the Sihai Hall was preparing to celebrate. Qiongju ran to the mountains to find the fragrant autumn fruits, Xue Yi carefully cooked delicious dishes, and Xingyan opened the cover of the wine jar and prepared to celebrate when Ju Ying came back.

Ju Ying came back early today. Not long after Xingyan came back, she returned from Yu Xiufeng. After hearing Xingyan's excitement, Ju Ying was also very happy and congratulated him:

"Congratulations to the Lord of the Hall for obtaining this honor; in a few years, you may be able to be the general and the prime minister~"

After hearing her joking words, Xingyan naturally didn't take it seriously.

After Qiongnu returned from the mountains, the celebration banquet of the Sihai Hall officially started in Xiuyun Pavilion.

On the stone table in the pavilion, fruits and food were arranged; four stone cups were filled with clear rice wine. After the order of the Lord Zhang, the three church members came to the table one after another and began to sing in the setting sun.

Of course, except for the original rice wine in Xingyan's cup, the other three girls' cups had mixed half a cup of cold spring water. Before sipping, Ju Ying poured the wine from the stone cup into the bamboo cup that Xingyan gave him, saying that she was used to drinking with the bamboo cup.

The evening breeze is clear and the evening clouds are bright. Not long after, the banquet in the Suiyun Pavilion is already messy. Xingyan has a very good alcohol tolerance. Drinking with these girls can only be considered a small drink. But although the cups have been mixed with spring water, they are still a little overwhelmed. Soon, two red leaves on Qionghu Xueyi's cheeks are already red. Juying's drinking power seems to have made considerable progress compared to the last night drinking of Mati Mountain; but after three rounds of wine, she has also shown a cute and silly appearance. Her fairy face, which has never looked like an ordinary thing on earth, is now two bright red flowers flying, like the bright clouds of the west.

The drunk Qiong Si began to verbally talk about her brother's "fresh" behavior in the past. Although the little girl's speech sounded childish and ridiculous, somehow, it made the redness on Ju Ying's face even thicker, just like the peach blossoms in spring, delicate and lustful. For a moment, she saw Xingyan's drunkenness even stronger, as if she wanted to get drunk.

At halfway through the banquet, the wine was slightly drunk, and suddenly there were familiar Hua Piaochen, Du Ziheng, Chen Ziping and Huang Ran, each carrying wine and food, and came to Qianniao Cliff to congratulate Xingyan. So, a few rattan chairs and bamboo stools were brought from the house and the banquet was reopened.

When the wine was over, Xingyan suddenly felt his intentions moving, so he left the seat and drew his sword and danced, facing the bright moon and green mountains in front of him, walking drunk on the stone cliff, and hitting the autumn wind with a sword, singing:

"The luster is brilliant among the rocks, and the bright moon is bright in the nine heavens.

I was soaked in my heart and asked about the reason before the Lingjian.

Brush the fairy sleeves of the fragrance and mist, and shake the mysterious tassels of the divine mist.

The wind and sky are lifted up together, and the distance is not sure where it is…”

The clear and high singing echoed in the sky mountain under the moon, and the sound of the remaining sounds lasted for a long time. Hua Piaochen and others were also playing the slightest swaying beside each other, and the whistling sound was harmonious.

After awakening, I entered the table with a song and saw that Qiong was unable to drink. She leaned against the railing and fell asleep drunk. She grabbed her arms and hugged her in the room, and placed her on a small couch to sleep. After the placement, she came out to have a banquet again.

When they moved, the fun was over, and the drunken young fellow Taoists supported each other and staggered back on the moon. It was exactly:

Drunk and dance down the mountain, the bright moon returns with people.

The next morning, until the sun was noon, Xingyan and his men could get up. Qiongju Xueyi was drunk very much, and Xingyan Juying got up before they got up.

The cold spring water swept away Xingyan's drunkenness last night. His mind was particularly clear at this time, so he couldn't help but think about the incident of Zhongsan Doctor and Jieyang's suppression of bandits.

The excitement of getting the first to be banned has passed, and looking at today's events, it seems that it is no different from yesterday.

As he thought about it, he accidentally glanced at the girl beside him. Seeing Ju Ying's sweet figure, the boy felt aroused in his heart and asked without thinking:

"Ju Ying, are you familiar with that prefect?"

After hearing the question, the girl who was flirting with water on her face trembled, and her hands became slower.

"Isn't you really familiar with Lord Duan, are you?"

Originally, I just asked casually, but I saw Ju Ying's abnormal reaction - Could it be that Ju Ying really knows Duan Taishou?

"It's not familiar."

Ju Ying had already reacted and was considering the words. Her slow tone and careful words seemed calm, but she could not hide a trace of panic.

"I just know him. I have relatives who know him. I have come to Luofu Mountain several times and then settled in his mansion..."

"Then have you mentioned me to him?"

Xingyan asked. The girl secretly observed his expression, thought for a while, and said:

"I've mentioned it, I praised you. I happened to hear him say you are coming to help the government fight bandits, so I told him, Xingyan, you are brave and smart, and you will definitely be able to help!"

“Haha, wherever you are~”

Xingyan suddenly realized:

"Oh! No wonder the prefect valued me so much; it turned out that it was because Juying, you are recommending me!"

"Uh? What are your relatives doing in Juying? Why did the prefect believe you so much?"

But Ju Ying smiled and said:

"Xingyan should be because you have the ability! Look, didn't you rely on you to defeat those bandits this time? Last time we went to capture Chen Kui and Lu County Zai, we knew you were very capable!"

The girl smiled and answered questions, and changed the topic; the boy no longer studied it, just like in his heart, subconsciously he was unwilling to ask questions, so he followed this topic and began to talk about the heroic deeds of the two on Poyang Lake back then.

It was not until this time that Xingyan seemed to have the leisure, or the courage to look at Juying's face carefully.

The girl who had just calmed down in her heart was amused by his unscrupulous look. For her, few people have always dared to look directly at her like this; now when he stared at her like this, he felt extremely embarrassed. However, although he was a little uncomfortable, Ju Ying said softly after a long time:

"What are you... watching again?"

Xingyan did not answer her, and just said:

"I haven't seen you for a long time, but I only realized today that you have reduced your money a lot than the last time..."

The boy's gentle words made Ju Ying stagnate, and it seemed that something suddenly stuck in his heart. For a moment, the girl felt extremely wronged and sobbed.

Seeing that he said something, Ju Ying made him cry, and the young master suddenly panicked. Xingyan's first reaction was to look back and see if the little girl Qiongzi was behind him.

"Huh, fortunately this little girl has a cup of wine last night."

Just as he was glad that he was about to turn around and ask Ju Ying what was sad, he felt that his shoulders and arms were weighing down. When he turned around, he turned to see that Ju Ying was leaning over to lean on his shoulder and kept sobbing. At this moment, Xingyan immediately became stiff. He could no longer ask his original words, and he didn't dare to move, letting the girl cry on his shoulder.

Gradually, he seemed to understand something, and his original stiff posture gradually became natural. Seeing Ju Ying crying, he didn't have many things to say? But those thousands of words came to his mouth, but he didn't know where to start. Finally, he only sighed softly and reached out to catch the girl's tenderness.

The hands that were once tightly held in the wind and rain of Poyang are now held together again.

…………

"Did Sister Juying leave so early?"

"Huh? Brother, you are not careful~"

After a while, a little girl on Qianniao Cliff was looking up at her brother who was still dazed by the cold spring. Seeing Xingyan's shoulders and arms soaked by water, Xiao Qiongzu kindly suggested:

"Why, brother, let Sister Xue Yi help wash her face in the future!"

So, a new day began on Qiandou Cliff.

A few days later, it was August 14th. That night, Xingyan was practicing "refining the spirit into the emptiness" at Qiandian Cliff. Ju Ying, Qiongzi, Xueyi and others were also drinking the rushing spiritual energy of the heaven and earth.

At this moment, I saw more than a dozen strange transparent rounds appearing in the Luofu Mountains in the distance, shining with faint red light, floating towards the Qiandiao Cliff...
