Indeed!

Women were still more interested in flowers and plants.

Yin Huaixi was deep in thought. “When we return to Xiangping City, I’ll bring you to tour West Anshan. At that time, the mountains will be filled with flowers. You can pick as many as you want.”

West Anshan was located between Liancheng and Xiangping. As it was located in the west of the mountain, its shape was very similar to a saddle, so it was called West Anshan. The name of the ancient mountain city originated from this mountain.

The iron ore in West Anshan was very abundant. Since ancient times, it had been an important place to smelt iron.

The mountain was also rich in beautiful jade, strange stones, medicinal herbs, and so on.

One of the four famous jade pieces of the Great Zhou Dynasty was produced here. In addition, it also produced more than 700 medicinal herbs. Almost all the common medicinal herbs could be picked from West Anshan.

The two of them chatted for a while. After about half an hour, Yu Youyao finally saw it. It was as if a silver Fuzhou River was wrapped around a canyon. There were waterfalls and springs in the canyon. It was very shocking.

Yu Youyao was very excited. She held Yin Huaixi’s shoulder with one hand and pointed at the canyon with the other. “That’s the canyon you mentioned, right?”

Yin Huaixi had been paying attention to the road under his feet and trying his best to walk on ground that was as flat as possible. He wasn’t worried about falling, but he didn’t want the road to be bumpy and make Yu Youyao uncomfortable on his back. When he heard Yu Youyao’s voice, he looked up. “Yes, it’s there.”

Yu Youyao exclaimed, “It’s so beautiful!”

“As long as you like it.” When Yin Huaixi was patrolling the mountain previously, he would deliberately remember places with good scenery. Today, he had brought Yu Youyao into the mountain because he had chosen a place he felt was not bad.

Along the way, Yu Youyao was very relaxed and clearly very satisfied.

After walking for a while, they finally arrived at the canyon.

Yin Huaixi finally let go of Yu Youyao.

After being carried by Yin Huaixi all the way, Yu Youyao suddenly felt her feet go numb, and even her legs go limp.

Yin Huaixi helped her up, feeling a little vexed. “It’s my oversight. I forgot to remind you to change to a pair of thick-soled shoes. You’ve never walked on the mountain path in the past, so your legs will definitely suffer after walking for so long.”

She was wearing soft-soled shoes made of cow tendon. They were comfortable, light, and agile, making it convenient for her to walk. However, the mountain path was uneven, so it was inevitable that she would trip a little. The young miss who had been raised in her room had hands that were as bright as jade and flawless. Her slender feet were probably as smooth as her hands. How could she stand the rugged mountain path?

When her feet felt tired, even her waist and legs felt uncomfortable.

He had only thought that Yu Youyao had learned the Flexible Body Technique from Nanny Xu since she was young to stimulate the circulation of her blood and cause her muscles and joints to relax. Thus, her body should have been strengthened and she should have a good physique. He did not expect this.

Yu Youyao shook her head. “It’s not too uncomfortable. I’ll get Liu’er to massage me for a while later and I’ll be fine.”

Liu’er’s skills were deeply inherited from Nanny Xu.

Yin Shi and Chun Xiao and a few accompanying guards set up a few tents in the canyon.

Yu Youyao was indeed a little tired. She was so tired that she was sweating and feeling a little uncomfortable. She thought of the hot spring that Yin Huaixi had mentioned and wanted to soak in it excitedly.

Chun Xiao had prepared clothes, incense, snacks, fruits, dried goods, tea, and so on. She brought Yu Youyao to the hot spring with Yin Shi.

Around the canyon stood small peaks of strange-looking huge rocks. They followed a narrow path between the huge rocks and arrived at a small col in less than 15 minutes.

There were rocks around the col, and the rocks were filled with thorny roses. Perhaps because they were close to the hot spring, the temperature in the col was suitable. The roses that had originally bloomed in March and April were surrounded by vines of all colors. They were beautiful. The air was filled with the fragrance of roses. The rocks and roses formed a solitary mountain and a secret environment. There was a green spring, as if jade stones were embedded in the col.

At a glance, the spring water was green, and the sand was clear. It was so clear that one could see the bottom. There were pebbles at the bottom of the pool, and the green stones were like jade in water. They were like pearls in amber, but they were beautiful.

It was beautiful, simply too beautiful!

No wonder Yin Huaixi had mentioned this hot spring.

Yu Youyao quickly walked over and squatted down. She scooped up a handful of water and smelled it gently. It was neither warm nor hot, and she could not smell any sulfur or strange smell. She lowered her head and took a small sip. There was no bitterness. Instead, there was the unique sweetness of spring water. It was a good pool. Its water was suitable for bathing and drinking. It was very rare.

Yu Youyao took a deep breath. “This place is really beautiful.”

Yin Shi had already set up a tent in the col.

Yu Youyao went to the tent to change into a tube dress made of gauze. She also wore a cloak that reached her calves. She stepped on the round pebbles on the ground to the side of the pool.

Chun Xiao took the cloak.

The tube dress revealed her arms, neck, and a large area of snow-jade skin on her chest. The gauze dress made of snow silk covered her body lightly. There was a light bundle at her waist, complementing her small and delicate waist. It also made her chest look even more exquisite and beautiful. It was as if a jade peak was covered by fog. She was extremely beautiful.

Yu Youyao slowly entered the water.

The snow silk robe suddenly spread out on the surface of the water, and the hem of the dress suddenly bloomed at her waist like a water lotus.

Yu Youyao’s body felt cold and warm at the same time. For a moment, she couldn’t take it anymore. After a while, she adapted to the temperature and felt the hot spring water drilling into her flesh all the time. It was slightly numb and hot, making her entire body feel comfortable.

Liu’er squatted behind Yu Youyao and scooped some spring water to wash her hair.

Chun Xiao burned the calming incense and spread a mat on the ground. It was filled with food, tea, and so on. From time to time, she would feed Yu Youyao.

Yin Shi found a tall rock and squatted on it, vigilant of his surroundings.

Yu Youyao swallowed a piece of pickled apricots and admired the thorny roses climbing up the mountain wall. She sighed. “What a godly life.”

After soaking in the hot spring for a long time, one would feel dizzy and their chest would feel tight, but Yu Youyao did not experience this. Perhaps it was because it was too comfortable to soak in the hot spring, but she refused to get up. As a result, Chun Xiao urged her repeatedly. She dawdled for 35 minutes before she was willing to let Liu’er and Chun Xiao help her up. After soaking in the hot spring, Yu Youyao’s muscles and bones went limp, and she felt weak.

Liu’er took out the rose dew and helped Yu Youyao massage her bones to nourish her muscles and meridians. Then, she applied a layer of balm to nourish her skin.

After dressing up and putting on her makeup, Yu Youyao felt refreshed, and the remaining soreness in her body was swept away.

She carried the empty food basket excitedly. “Let’s pick some roses. We’ll make some dew, balm, makeup, and floral cakes later.”

When making dew, one had to pick roses with buds that were about to bloom. The fragrance would be contained and not revealed. Only then would the fragrance be purer.

When making incense and makeup, one had to pick bright flowers to have the brightest and purest colors.

As for floral cakes and food, one did not need to be picky.

Yu Youyao picked a lot of roses. Then, she picked a handful of colorful roses and returned to the canyon.
