Cui’er looked at the little boy in front of her and suddenly joked: “Aren’t you afraid?”

Bai Zhi was stunned: “Afraid? Why should I be afraid?”

Cui’er said: “We don’t know each other. We took you out of the city in the middle of the night and ran to the mountain. Aren’t you afraid that I am a bad person?”

Bai Zhi smiled and said: “I can still distinguish between bad guys and good guys. Sister, you are a good person, not a bad person.”

Cui’er raised an eyebrow: “Oh? why do you think I’m a good person?”

Bai Zhi smiled and said: “People often say that people born with a good or bad, their heart will reflect on their face. Even if they disguise or hide it, in every move they did, or every word they said, they will reveal some clues. The human’s eyes are the window of the soul. Through their eyes, you can see the heart of the person.”

Bai Zhi paused and said again: “Sister, you and your lady are good people. I didn’t make any mistake.”

Cui’er laughed and said, “You, you’re not only young but also has a sweet mouth. You can spout sweet words again and again.”

Bai Zhi smiled: “I’m not complimenting you, I’m telling the truth.”

While they were talking, the carriage had stopped. Cui’er came out of the carriage and waited for the little doctor to come out.

When Bai Zhi came out, the scene in front of her made her only think of two words, luxurious and impressive.

The road was paved with bluestone flooring. There were exquisite flower beds everywhere. The house hiding under luxurious trees was covered with scale tiles.

Although it was night, the light of the lanterns swaying in the wind, overpowered the darkness. She can see the mist lingering between the houses. This place was like a fairyland. She was like a lost child who accidentally entered a fairyland.

Cui’er was very anxious. When she saw the little doctor in a daze, she simply grabbed his arm and pulled him inside.

“What are you looking at? If you like to look around, you can look at them in the morning. That’s when this place looks so good.”

Even if Cui’er didn’t say it, she was sure that when the morning fog lingers around, while the wind and clouds surging, the scenery at that time, will be the most beautiful moment in her life.

Hu Feng told her before that the place where he studied martial arts when he was young was like a fairyland outside the world. The mountain was full of energy. Whenever he woke up in the morning, he felt like he was in fairyland.

She didn’t believe it at the time. She thought there was no such place in the world. She doesn’t know how this place could compare with the place where Hu Feng studied martial arts.

In modern times, she has seen many famous mountain paintings, which don’t look like exist in the world. But when she actually visited the place, she discovered that they look very different from the paintings. The explosive growth of humans and excessive development destroyed the ecological environment. Those famous mountains could now only exist in the painting.

While she was in her own world, Cui’er had already dragged her into the gate, engraved with the words, Qi Yunju.

In the gate, the houses, pavilions, pools, and waterside pavilion were covered with green pines and cypresses.

The rockery, vines, bamboos, and cypresses were like a tower. Various exotic flowers and plants were lining up in the garden. She even saw several rare herbs. Under the moonlight, the flowers on the herbs were quietly opened and giving of intoxicating scent.

This was a fairyland on earth. If she can live in this place, how good must it be!

Cui’er continued pulling while walking inside. When she met someone, she busily said: “Go and tell the old master that the doctor has been found.”

The servant replied: “Master has been waiting in the hall, you hurry in.”

Cui’er didn’t expect that the master would wait until this hour. She was very surprised. She hurriedly pulled Bai Zhi in.
