Chapter 705: Moved
The chirping of birds broke the silence of the morning. The mountains were filled with mist, and the air in Wanshi Villa was fresh and sweet, making people feel relaxed and happy. Last night, a child knocked on the door and brought breakfast.
The breakfast consisted of eight dishes, a clear porridge, a clear soup, a pickled flower petal, and four small and exquisite side dishes. The child told Li Changxiao that the flower petals were processed in a special way and were very delicious. One could not forget the taste. He could eat the flower petals to fill up the side dish and then drink the clear porridge. All the happiness in the world, if added together, would be just like this.
Seeing how excited he was, Li Changxiao did not want to spoil the fun, and used the method he described to taste it carefully. As expected, he felt extraordinary, the sweet taste went straight to his heart, and he could not describe it.
Li Changxiao ate a few mouthfuls in a hurry and ate up all the breakfast. The little boy smiled softly with his hands covering his mouth, and waited obediently by the side. After Li Changxiao finished his breakfast, the little boy led him to a bath room and said that hot water and clothes were ready, waiting for the young master to go in and enjoy.
On the plaque above the bath room, it was written: "Wanshi Villa, a paradise on earth", and a faint fragrance wafted in. Li Changxiao entered the bath room. Inside, the hot water was just right, and a white dress was neatly placed on the hanger. The style was no different from the one Li Changxiao was wearing.
Li Changxiao took off his old clothes, took a bath, and put on new clothes. When he walked out of the bath room, it was the coolest time of the morning. A breeze blew over him, making him feel comfortable all over. He saw the beautiful scenery of Wanshi Villa again, and his heart also felt relaxed.
Next, the little boy took Li Changxiao to visit the villa. First, they went to a white jade pond. There were various small fish in it, playing with the tourists.
A 13-year-old child was leaning over, holding a wooden stick, teasing the fish by the pond, having a lot of fun. The child explained, "The villa is usually very quiet, but today we happened to be staying with a few people." When they came to the white jade pond, they saw that the fish was very smart, flipping and jumping left and right, as if trying to please the tourists.
A three-year-old child pulled his parents' clothes and said, "Dad, Mom, I want to take it home." His parents said, "It's just a fish, no big deal. Dad will buy it for you when you leave." The child jumped for joy, and seeing that the fish was small and smart, he couldn't let it go.
The host of the family of three was a woman with a pair of whips on both sides. She had a pretty face. Seeing this scene, she smiled softly. She squatted down and rubbed the child's head. The man in the family of three glanced at the woman intentionally or unintentionally.
Li Changxiao had no interest in the little fish, so he bypassed the white jade pond and continued walking forward. This Wanshi Villa was really big. Even if it was an ordinary mansion, no matter how big it was, it would take one or two hours to walk around. However, in this Wanshi Villa, the mountains were real mountains and the water was real water. Not to mention one or two hours, if you were to play carefully, you might not be able to walk around in three or two days.
When they arrived at a long corridor and looked outside, they saw a beautiful courtyard on one side and a thousand-foot cliff on the other. They could see flowers in full bloom and eagles spreading their wings. The scenery was so stunning that even Li Changxiao felt his eyes brighten and he was amazed.
After passing through the corridor, you will arrive at a garden with countless exotic flowers. At first glance, it seems that all the wonderful colors in the world are gathered here.
The little boy turned around and looked at Li Changxiao. Seeing that he was just admiring but not interested, he couldn't help but frowned, but soon frowned again and continued to tour with Li Changxiao.
After passing through the garden, they saw a tall tower. The little boy told Li Changxiao that there were countless books in the tower, including profound Buddhist secrets and poems by literati.
As he said this, he went straight up the tower. The stairs of the tower were circular and spiraled upwards. There were countless books on both sides and candles burning on the walls. As he spiraled up, the first floor was mostly filled with mortal classics, from the upper nine classes to the lower nine classes, regardless of whether they were elegant or vulgar. The collection was so extensive that no one could help but be amazed and moved.
Li Changxiao passed by quickly. Although he was immortal with unlimited lifespan and liked reading books and classics, all the books he had read in his life added up were not even one tenth of what was read here.
Going up to the second floor, I saw the classics on the second floor. It is obvious that the inferior ones are selected from the best ones. They are all from the hands of ancient masters. It is worth mentioning that if the scholars who are in the world have lofty ambitions and can benefit the people, their reputation will be no less than that of powerful monks. Even powerful monks will compete to make friends with them and call them "sir". There is a saying that the way is not about length, but about depth.
Li Changxiao couldn't accurately estimate the preciousness of the ancient books in the city. If an ordinary Void Refining expert came here, he would probably be scared out of his wits and wonder what kind of person the owner of the villa was. However, Li Changxiao didn't care. He just wanted to travel around the villa and had no other intentions.
Going up three floors, the things hidden on this floor have already entered the realm of immortality. They are all high-level techniques, great insights into the Dao, and scriptures... Throughout history, there have been very few people who have been able to come here and not take the things that were distributed.
The little boy reminded, "Young man, the master is kind and generous. If you want something, just take it. Don't worry about anything." Li Chang smiled and said, "I'll just take a look." He had no intention of taking it.
Go up four floors, five floors, six floors... When you reach the seventh floor, there are even hundreds of unique magic techniques, as well as the key points of understanding sword intent on the Three Thousand Sword Intent List.
Li Changxiao always wore white clothes, brushing past all the complicated and trivial desires, but his white clothes were not stained with dust. Seeing this, the little boy sighed softly, and felt helpless. He had never seen such a difficult guest.
The little boy gathered his fighting spirit and took Li Changxiao down the tower. Then he went deeper and saw a waterfall, an orchard, and a tower standing in the clouds. On a green lawn, there was a grand art exhibition with countless precious paintings.
Occasionally, I met people who were traveling with me. After chatting with them, I learned that they had all mistakenly entered the manor and had been living here for a long time, sometimes for ten days or half a month, sometimes for several months. They were reluctant to leave, thinking that this place was a paradise on earth and that those who could enter this place were blessed with great fortune and blessings. When they arrived here, they all had their hands full, either with new clothes or rare treasures.
They were all surprised to see that Li Changxiao was still dressed simply, but soon their attention was drawn to the prosperity that came into their sight and they no longer paid attention to Li Changxiao and his party.
The little boy made a gesture of invitation, and Li Changxiao walked forward again. This Wanshi Villa is indeed worthy of the word "Wan", with both elegance and vulgarity, immortals and Buddhas, civil and military. It is normal to step into it, be tempted, intoxicated, and no longer know the way back.
