Volume 1 God and Origin Chapter 53 Mount Meru
The spring breeze is blowing, the shade of the trees is moving, Jinling is still the Jinling, majestic and brilliant, bustling with people, it is a sigh, it is the face of the mirror and the tree, and the old master is buried in the rivers and mountains.
The guards in front of the city were in charge of investigation, and each person had a picture scroll painted with several faces, on the public notice board next to the city wall, and on the long wooden table under the tent.
Gou San led the horse into the bustling procession into the city with a gloomy expression, and was subjected to undue interrogation one after another.
"Name!" There were a few sea hunting newspapers on the long wooden table, and a few portraits of people in circles, Gou Sanyu skimmed his eyes, and couldn't help but show a smile.
"What are you laughing at!!" said the officer sitting at the wooden table, with a cold face.
"Yelang Chishui, Qin Huai. Gou San nodded.
"Is there a state government document?" The officer looked at Yousan and tilted his head, as if he wanted to see through all sides of him, and then lowered his eyes to look at the sea fishing newspaper on the table a few times, and asked.
Gou San hugged his fists and said with a dry smile: "Master Jun, Xiaomin came from Yelang Chishui, and Cheng Tu did not obtain the passage documents, this..."
The officer's eyebrows were cold, and he looked at Gou San's gorgeous clothes, and asked, "Why did you come to Jinling?"
"The little one came to Jinling on the orders of his father to do some business. Gou San leaned forward, buried a piece of silver in the officer's hand, laughed a few times, and said: "I didn't know that I needed to pass documents to enter Jinling, Yelang is thousands of miles away from Jinling, and it is not true for the small one to go back, and I hope that the military master will be accommodating." ”
The officer vaguely put his palm into his arms, but his face was forced to be stern, and said: "Don't pick quarrels and provoke trouble when you enter the city!"
Seeing that the officer wrote a few strokes on a small fold, and then stamped a seal like a military seal on it, looked at Gou San and carefully looked at the portrait of sea hunting, and then handed the small fold to Gou San.
Gou San accepted the small fold, and then the officer looked at it, and the appearance seemed to be regarded as a treasure in his arms, and he smiled and thanked him frequently: "Xie Junye, Xie Junye, Junye is rich." ”
"Next!" the officer waved his palm without looking at it, calculating today's earnings in his heart, and his face couldn't help but feel a little happy.
A month and a half ago, that is, on the sixteenth day of the first month, Cheng Ming, the commander of the north of the city, recalled that in the wilderness on the outskirts of the town, Cheng Ming's blind man died to save his conscience, and he was very touched by Cheng Ming's death in battle.
According to the news sent back by Lu Yaoyuan, the battle in the north of the city was the most tragic that day, Leng Jia exchanged his name for his life, and used blood and bones to cast a thick wall against the enemy, Cheng Ming died in battle, and his corpse was broken, and his only recognizable palm was still holding the war knife tightly until he cleaned the battlefield.
Gou San looked back, for a long time, and bowed deeply to the city tower.
Yishi is still full of rivers and lakes, and the shouting and shouting are endless, and these so-called Jianghu people are just a meal, no wonder, and I can't wait for it.
Passing by the smoke willow field, she still waved a silk to welcome customers, and before walking through the stall, he still introduced the treasure of the town stall, as if the wind and rain in Jinling had never blown into the mortal dust, and everything was the same.
The Changfeng Inn at the end of the street is still clear, but the owner has changed, and the two well-known barterers have also changed their new owners.
Gou San led the horse and walked indifferently in the alley, his pace was gentle and introverted, like a young master of the sect who tasted the world, like a young master of the noble gate.
"Gou San, the second stall on the left!"
Nie Xiaoqian's abrupt transmission made Gou San startled, and he couldn't help shrinking his body, raised his eyebrows and looked at the second stall on the left, seeing the white-haired old man in front of the stall meditating with his eyes closed.
"There's something strange in the black box!" Nie Xiaoqian said again.
Gou San smiled disapprovingly, picked up a piece of tree root casually, touched it in his hand and smelled it, and after putting it down, he picked up a stone and looked at it for a while, and asked, "Uncle, how do you sell this stone?"
The old man had already opened his eyes when he looked at the black shadow covering his face, and he didn't say a word for a long time when he looked at it, and after hearing his question, his face was not turbulent, and he said indifferently: "This is the East China Sea Cold Crystal, which is not sold much." ”
Seeing that the old man stretched out his slap and shook it in the air, Gou San frowned and asked, "Fifty taels?"
Seeing that the old man stroked his beard and shook his head, Gou San subconsciously said, "Five hundred taels?"
Looking at him, he still shook his head, and Gou San almost scolded, "This broken stone is five thousand taels, why don't you grab it! Although the cold crystal stone is helpful for cultivation and reduces the risk of Dao fire, it is not worth five thousand!"
"The old man buys and sells as a wisher, and if the little brother is too expensive, he can take a look at other objects, or go to other stalls to pay the price. The old man smiled implicitly for the first time, grabbed the cold crystal stone that Gou San held in his hand and put it back in the stall.
Gou San pouted, and turned over a few objects on the stall, and after asking the price, he was not very satisfied, grabbed the cold crystal stone with his backhand and put it in his hand, and said with a smile: "Although I am not bad for money, but five thousand taels is really expensive, five hundred taels, you see how it is, if you can give the money immediately." ”
A silver bag slipped down from the palm of his right hand, listening to the crisp sound of the silver money inside, with the old man's experience, he estimated that it should be no less than a thousand, and immediately stroked his beard and glared: "Little brother, your bargaining price is really sharp." ”
"Okay, eight hundred taels, no more. Gou San was in a stalemate for a long time, took a step back, Rao is the appearance that if you don't sell me, I'll leave.
Although the old man's face remained unchanged, it was not difficult to see that his expression was a little tangled, and he saw that Gou San took a step back and slapped the stall lightly, and said, "One thousand taels, one or two less, this deal will not be successful." ”
Gou San laughed in his heart, deliberately delayed a few breaths to think about it, and then glanced at the black box and said, "There are two hundred taels more on the land, I think so, you have a cold crystal on your stall that is worth it, why don't I ask for another object, how about it?"
Seeing Gou San touching the black box, a trace of schadenfreude flashed in the old man's eyes, but he opened it and looked at it, and there was a broken volume inside, and it was just a fragment, useless at all, the black box made it look more mysterious and asked for a lot of money, and stood up at the moment and said, "Okay, I will sell you cheaply as an old man today." ”
The old man wrapped the black box and cold crystal, looked at Gou San and did not lose the money bag, and when he frowned, he saw that there were more than a dozen silver tickets in his palm, each of which was printed with a big thousand characters, and his intestines were blue with regret.
Gou San spat at Xingzi on his fingers, took out two five-hundred-dollar tickets from more than a dozen thousand taels of silver tickets and handed them to the old man, and finally did not forget to thank him.
Gou San walked down the street, touched the small black box in his bag, and said, "Miss Xiaoqian, what's inside, can you see it?"
"The breath is somewhat familiar, as if I have seen it many years ago, and I can see it when I look for an inn. Nie Xiaoqian was also a little uncontrollable.
Gou San nodded approvingly, raised his eyes and looked around in the streets and alleys, and the word Changfeng came into his eyes, staring at the wind for a long time, and exhaled with a heavy snort.
"Yo, please come in the guest officer, please come inside, do you want to stay in the hotel?" Seeing that Gou San was gorgeously dressed and tied a tall horse in front of the horse stone at the door, Xiao Er trotted over from afar, took off the sweat towel on his shoulders and swept it on the bench, nodded and bent over and asked with a smile.
Gou San's eyes habitually looked at the counter under the stairs, but the familiar shopkeeper was no longer the person in his memory, squeezed out a smile and found a guest table by the window, and said, "Let's pot your store's signature wine, and then have a plate of beef, steamed chicken, and roast duck." ”
"Let's have peanuts and sea bass. Gou San remembered the menu he had eaten at the Changfeng Inn before, and there were a lot of truthful photos.
"Well, you drink tea first, and I'll make it for you right away. Listening to the young man dressed as the young master in front of him talking about a few signature dishes of Changfeng Inn, the shopkeeper was full of smiles, and after Yu Gou San poured a cup of tea, he trotted neatly, while drinking Gou San and reported the names of each dish.
Seeing that there were not many people eating wine in the inn, and no one paid attention, Gou San took out the laughing black box under the table between sipping tea, and saw that it was a yellowed broken sheepskin, and closed the box with both hands to pull up the sheepskin between frowning.
Gou San's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, the sheepskin was drawn like a map, the dense strokes were twisted and twisted, there was a mountain col from time to time, and there were a few lines of incomprehensible ancient characters at the end of the sheepskin, and the voice said: "Miss Xiaoqian, what is on this sheepskin, can you see it?"
"Miss Xiaoqian?" Nie Xiaoqian didn't respond for a long time, and Gou San called a few times.
After a long time, Nie Xiaoqian's excited trill, which was difficult to calm down, "This is the small half-volume prescription of Sumeru Dan!"
"Does it really exist?" Gou San was surprised and asked, "Then what is this map, and why does the prescription draw a map?"
"I understand!" After another long time, Nie Xiaoqian finally calmed down and said: "It should be the map of Mount Meru, Mount Sumeru Dan Sumeru, Mount Sumeru is in Mount Meru, or Mount Meru has a complete prescription for refining Mount Meru!
Listening to Nie Xiaoqian's excited voice, Gou San's face fell, and he said a little weakly: "Miss Xiaoqian, I don't know how many years I've disappeared from Mount Meru..."
Nie Xiaoqian didn't transmit for a long time, Gou San realized that his words were a little frustrated, and hurriedly said: "This sheepskin seems to be one-third, and finding the other two pieces should be able to spell out a complete road map, I hope there is a big one." ”
"Okay, you don't have to comfort me, but it's better to have hope than no hope, no, I accidentally found a small half of the map. ”
Gou San nodded subconsciously, looked at the few lines of small characters on the tail of the sheepskin, and said, "Can Miss Xiaoqian recognize these words?"
"Recognize a few, this is ancient astronomy, literally, it should be a poem. Nie Xiaoqian paused and said: "The fourth word of the first line seems to be the best word, the last word of the first line is like an empty word, the fifth word of the second line should be the mountain word, the first word of the third line is like no word, and the sixth word of the last line should be a human word..."
Gou San was dumbfounded, and only guessed five words out of twenty-eight words, not necessarily, scratching his head, and asked, "Who in this world can recognize ancient astronomy?"
"If you want to know the ancient astronomy, there should only be the descendants of Emperor Yan of Shennongjia in this world. Rao is Nie Xiaoqian is a little unsure.
Gou San Yao Yaozui, the Shennong clan has been passed down to this day but is a secret clan, just know the approximate location of the Shennong frame, I am afraid that it is no different from looking at this parchment scroll, and the Shennong clan cannot be found at all.
Gou San collected his thoughts and comforted: "Anyway, I'm not in a hurry, I'll go for a run when I'm almost done." ”
Nie Xiaoqian didn't hear back, Gou San threw the parchment roll into the ring, and the shopkeeper also served all the wine and food.
Staring at the same few delicacies on the plate, Gou San poured himself a glass of peach blossom wine, picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks, chewed a little lost, pinched the wine glass and drank it all, looked at the empty wine glass lightly, no longer took one more bite, drank half a cup more, put a piece of silver on the table and got up to leave.
There's always something memorable.
Even though she is exactly the same.
But she wasn't her anymore.
Even if you are hungry, you will eat, but that's all.
