The lovers heard Yuping calling them from afar. They saw the little prince running towards them, followed by his two older siblings.
Yuping, "I finally found you guy. What are you guy doing here?"
Guo Baiyu asked, "Why are you doing here?"
Yuping, "My brother and sister are showing me around. We are going to pick apples."
Zhao Renshu smiled and said, "Sounds very interesting. Then let's go pick apples."
Ziyi smiled and said, "This way." Ziyi led the way.
Yuping offered, "Doctor Guozhao, I can give you a ride."
Guo Baiyu declined, "It's okay."
Zhao Renshu picked Guo Baiyu up and put him on Yuping's back. He said, "Say who? You are sick. You ride on his back."
Gou Baiyu frowned and said, "He is a prince."
Yuping, "I don't mind."
Zhao Renshu jumped onto the Yuping's back and sat behind Guo Baiyu.
Siyuan said, "You can ride on my back."
Ping'an declined, "You are a prince. I would rather not."
Siyuan, "I don't mind. You saved my family."
Ping'an, "Well, I accept this offer, but I not right now. If one day, I ask for a ride on your back, you can't refuse it."
Siyuan smiled and said, "Deal."
Ping'an, "I would rather walk side by side with you. This reminds me of a poem written by Baiyu wrote. He wrote:
"I will not lead and have you follow me
I will not follow you or have you lead
I will walk beside you and be your friend
Even if the world shatter, our friendships remain"
Siyuan, "I didn't know Doctor Guozhao wrote poems."
Ping'an, "That was the last poem he wrote."
Siyuan, "Why do he stop?"
Ping'an, "We are always out fighting creatures and spirits. There is nothing special to write about."
Siyuan smiled and said, "To be honest, if someone wants me to write a poem. I don't know what to write, because all I do from morning to dawn is guarding the Demon Gate."
To be honest, in Ping'an's heart, she knew the real reason why Guo Baiyu stopped writing poems. Poetry, reminded him of that painful day. When he realized that his family cut tied with him. Just like Ping'an, whenever someone mentions Peace Town, it brings back painful memories. She watched her lovers, Yuping, and Ziyi picking apples.
Zhao Renshu took out a small porch and handed it to Yuping. He smiled and said, "Here take it."
Yuping took the bag and asked, "What it is?"
Zhao Renshu, "Peach seeds. Planted today, you can eat peaches in about ten years. If you are tired of eating apples, you can eat peaches."
Ziyi, "Savior, it only takes two to three years to grow a tree in Immortal Valley."
Zhao Renshu, "Then you will get to eat peaches sooner."
The group of friends picked apples and laughed as the sun sets on the beautiful mountain horizon.
That night, King Shammek and Queen Ruilin hosted a dinner party. The only table with chairs is for lovers. Everyone else is standing at their table. King Shammek made a toast to his lovers for saving his family. Everything on the table is vegetables.
Zhao Renshu poked the green vegetable plate and moved the vegetables from side to side.
Guo Baiyu, "Just eat. Everyone is watching you."
Zhao Renshu, "This dish is the same as two days ago."
The dish is a salad dish with some lettuce, turnips and carrots in it.
Guo Baiyu got up and said, "King Shammek, thank you for your hospitality. Thank you very much for taking care of us in the past few days, but the visit will not last forever. Tomorrow, we will part ways. We have some business we need to finish."
Zhao Renshu was particularly happy, "Goddess Jiutian Xuannü asked us to catch some criminals."
King Shammek, "The three of you will always welcome here."
Guo Baiyu, "Thank you."
The next morning, the lovers parted ways with the Horsemen Kin. They crossed the lake and left the poor Yuping stood crying on the other side of the lake. When the water wall slowly collapsed behind them, the lovers and their horses came to the shore of the lake. Ping'an stopped her horse.
Ping'an looked to her left, "I think there is a house here." She instructed the horse to the left.
Guo Baiyu, "If you are curious, let us have a look?"
Zhao Renshu, "I will go anywhere, but I can't go back there."
The lovers rode their horse along a small path with wild flowers everywhere. Trees are on both side of this path. There are many wild animals in the area.
Zhao Renshu, "This is too clean. Could it be that someone live here?"
Guo Baiyu asked, "How is your private talk with King Shammek?"
Ping'an, "I asked him if it is possible to clear the wasteland."
Zhao Renshu, "What did he says?
Ping'an said, "He said his duty is to protect the Northern Fortress, he will not deal with other people."
Zhao Renshu, "That is a very clear answer."
The lovers came to a flower gate. Beside the open gate there was a log bench. There is a log bench beside the open door. The lovers dismounted and tied the horses to the branch. They walked into the house. This is a simple environment, with a small bamboo shed and a big tree house. A set of swings hung on the branches of the apple tree.
Ping'an, "I dreamed of this place before. If I guess right, this is the house of Syaoran. He made that swing set for his wives."
Zhao Renshu, "This Syaoran is too romantic. When we get home, I am building a swing for you, dear." He smiled at her.
Ping'an, "I accept."
Zhao Renshu turned to Guo Baiyu and said, "Baiyu will design it."
Guo Baiyu, "I believe the Centaur look after this place. There is no way it will look this good for the past five hundred years."
Zhao Renshu, "If we happen to come here next time, we will stay here."
Zhao Renshu by the swings and stood in front of the apple tree. He dug a hole, and put two peaches seeds in the hole, and then he covered the hole with dirt.
Guo Baiyu asked, "What are you doing?"
Zhao Renshu, "Plant peach trees. Ziyi said, the plants here grow fast and will last forever unless they are cut down."
Ping'an, "Let's go. We will arrive at Waterfall City at noon."
Zhao Renshu, "We don't stop in Waterfall City."
Guo Baiyu, "Are you worried?"
Zhao Renshu, "I don't want to bump into Huang Hongse. We are resting in that quite town we pass by."
Guo Baiyu, "It may be close to nightfall when we get there."
Zhao Renshu, "I don't care. I am not resting in Waterfall City. Why don't you worry that the mayor and Lin Yuehai will force you to marry her?"
Guo Baiyu, "I have a clear conscience. I am not afraid."
Ping'an, "Does this mean you don't have a clear conscience?" She turned and looked at Zhao Renshu.
Ping'an and Guo Baiyu whipped their horses and then took off.
Zhao Renshu a little on the slow side shouted, "Hey, hey. Wait for me. I have nothing to hide. My conscience is also very clean." He chased his lovers.
