MTL - Cultivation of Immortals Begins with Drilling Wood To Make Fire-Chapter 476 【on the cliff】

  Chapter 476 [On the Cliff]

  The mountains and green waters on the cliff are beautiful. Under the sunshine at noon, the light and shade alternate, which is too beautiful to behold. If there is a painter who can fill this scene on paper, and then frame it properly, it must be a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation.

   After being stunned for a moment, Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling were able to take a closer look at the scenery on the cliff.

  The first thing that catches the eyes of the two is the main hall in front. Although there are few carvings and paintings, it is magnificent in shape and very harmonious with the surrounding environment, as if it grew out of there. This is the tallest building on the cliff, which is very eye-catching. They took a closer look and recognized the words "No Name Hall" on the plaque in front of the hall, then they looked away and looked around.

  There is a strange small shed next to the stone ring, which seems to have been cleaned up recently, and it is so clean that I don't know what it is used for. Not far away is an exquisite small pavilion with a small wooden table and a few stools in the middle. There are many tea trees growing on the edge of the cliff. Since the picking season has passed, they look a bit like ordinary shrubs.

   There is also a large stone, which is flat and upright on the edge of the cliff. There are several gourd vines growing behind the stone, and some small gourds are hanging on it. There are several pine trees not far from the stone, and there is a big bird's nest on it, but there seems to be no birds in it at the moment, and I don't know what kind of bird the nest belongs to.

  To their surprise, there was a small fishing boat standing on the edge of the cliff, with a bamboo raft beside it. Liu Yuande was well-informed, so he recognized that this was not a common fishing boat in the Central Plains, and he didn't know how the boat got to the high mountain. He probably had something to do with Mr. Fang.

  The source of the waterfall is a wide stream, which is rushing out of the cliff.

A small stream flows out of a small pond. In the pond, there are layers of lotus leaves. White and pink lotus flowers stretch high from above and bloom towards the sky. Like a spear, pointed straight to the sky. There is also a channel made of wooden boards, which zigzags through the pond and divides the pond into two parts.

  There are excavation marks beside the pond, and it seems that it is preparing to expand the area.

  Further forward, on the square stone base in front of the main hall, there is a four-legged square tripod, which looks quite majestic. Between the main hall and the tripod, there is a luxuriant ginkgo tree, under which there is a stone table made of a large stone, on which there seem to be things placed, and there are several stone benches beside it.

  On both sides are fields with various crops, including medicine fields, grain fields, vegetable fields, flower fields, and a chicken shed in which many chickens are raised. Due to his little knowledge of medical skills, Liu Yuande could even recognize several precious medicinal materials from the medicinal fields, and he didn't even know the ones that were more important when he was surrounded alone.

  Looking in the distance, there are two rows of large-scale houses. There are many stove-like buildings in the middle, and there is still smoke on them. I don’t know what they are doing.

  On the right side of Xianqi Cliff is a valley, with a stream flowing down from it and pouring into the pond full of lotus. This stream is not long upwards, and it seems that there is a spring halfway up the mountain.

  At the turning point where the stream flows from the valley to the cliff, there stands a big stone with the three characters "Huanhuaxi" engraved with a sharp pen on it.

  On the left side of the open space on the cliff, there is a dense jungle. I don't know how far it is paved, and I don't know how wide the area of ​​the cliff is. There is a low fence on the edge of the forest, and there are apes jumping to and fro in the forest, singing and chirping.

   "It really is a blessed land of immortals." Yu Qingling said, but she didn't find Fang Chang, so she said, "But where is Mr. Fang?"

  Liu Yuande said: "I didn't see it either, let's go directly to the direction of the unnamed hall."

  So the two walked forward, passed the winding boardwalk in the pond, and walked to the front of the hall. The ground was paved with bricks and stones, and the sweeping was very clean. The breeze blew by, and the surrounding trees rattled.

  I saw a man in white walking around from the back of the hall, holding a jar in his hand.

   It was Fang Chang, he smiled and said to Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling:

"You guys are here. I went to the back mountain to bring over the altar wine. It is my own brewed and steamed sorghum wine. It is stored in the cave behind. Now it has lost its heat and tastes good. Are you tired from the long journey? Let's go to the nearby stream Wash your hands here, and later here, let’s have lunch together, the conditions on the cliff are simple, don’t be disgusted.”

   After saying that, Fang Chang pointed to the big stone table in front, and the two of them realized that the stone table was already full of food.

  Thinking of the wine jar in Mr. Fang's hand again, Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling immediately knew that Mr. Fang had already known the news that they were coming.

  They secretly lamented that Mr. Fang is really a true immortal, and his ability to predict the future is really miraculous.

   Then Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling bowed slightly to Fang Chang, and handed over the gifts they brought, which were a few strange books. Fang Chang took it with one hand, looked at it, and said happily:

   "That's right, I haven't seen it."

  The two of them went to the stream to wash their hands as promised, and then sat on the edge of the stone table.

There are many kinds of delicacies on the table, many of which are rare mountain treasures, and some home-made boiled beans, steamed bacon, peanuts, minced meat tofu, and several kinds of meat that cannot be named. There are various cooking methods, including steaming, stewing and frying. It smells delicious and looks colorful and attractive.

  At this time, Fang Chang was already sitting at the main seat, and was pouring wine into two glasses.

  Liu Yuande noticed that there were vertical and horizontal lines on the stone table, like a chessboard. I don't know who Mr. Fang will be playing against here?

  After walking a lot of mountain roads and climbing the plank road for a long time, the two of them were really hungry.

  They were very familiar with Fang Chang, and they were not too polite, so they picked up their chopsticks and ate them.

  When the food was in the mouth, they were surprised by the deliciousness of the food, which made their stomachs even hungrier, and then they speeded up their eating without losing grace. The staple food is corn and a kind of steamed potato. Fang Chang told them that these are grown on the cliff by himself. Similarly, the sorghum for wine is also grown on the cliff.

  Walking around the rivers and lakes all the year round, and conquered in the army, both Yu Qingling and Liu Yuande can drink quite well, so the three of them killed a whole pot. The two were full of praise for the taste of the wine, but Fang Chang didn't tell them that it was because the cave in the back mountain was full of spiritual power, and the taste of the wine was greatly improved after years of infiltration. People add wine and persuade food.

   When he was slightly drunk, Fang Chang asked the two of them:

   "How is the situation down the mountain? Why do you come here when you have time?"

Fang Chang only sensed that they would come in advance, but he didn't really try to predict why they came. Now that they looked relaxed and lively, and they didn't seem to be busy at all, he knew that they might not be burdened by official positions. So just ask directly.
