Session 6: Night Meeting

Mo and Yu traveled for a few days, wore Baoding Mansion to Zhending Mansion, crossed the stone gate, and arrived in the town on this day, and the two entered the inn to stay.

Yu Meng said to Mo Junyan: "Is this the land of Yan Zhao mentioned in the book, hmph, what are the people who have been generous and sad since ancient times, and it is nothing more than that." ”

Mo Junyan knew that what she said was referring to the first line of Beizhili, and there were no outstanding martial arts masters, so he said: "This place is located in North China, located in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, east of the Bohai Sea, surrounded by Beijing and Tianjin, and is one of the barriers of the Beijing Division. There is the Taihang Mountain Taihang Sword School in the west, and it is said that the Taihang School had many martial arts masters in the Northern Song Dynasty, dominating the northern Hebei region. There is Yanshan Mountain in the north, starting from Baihe in the west, and reaching Shanhaiguan in the east, the terrain is dangerous, and it is a place where soldiers must fight......"

Yu Meng didn't wait for him to finish speaking, he just grabbed the white: "Are there any outstanding talents in the Taihang Sword Sect now?" Hmph, if there is, you might as well let them come and compete with the girl to see if the girl is powerful or he is too powerful." As for what soldiers must fight for, that's a soldier's business, and my sister doesn't care about it. Mo Junyan was helpless, so he had to laugh and say, "What Senior Sister said is true." ”

They each called two rooms, put the package and went downstairs.

At this time, it is dinner time, and the customs in the north are different from those in the south, and they like to drink wine in large bowls and eat meat in large pieces, so as to have a lively and lively scene. So the restaurant was full of people, individual shouting, drinking and boxing, and the little two and the chefs were very busy.

Yu and Mo found a small table and sat down, Yu Meng called for a long time, but no one came to take care of it, Mo Junyan persuaded: "There are so many people, I can't complain about them, senior sister, just bear with it." ”

At this time, a few more big men suddenly came from outside the store, and they happened to sit down at the table next to them, shouting loudly. The shopkeeper saw that it was a regular customer, and hurriedly beckoned Xiao Er to come and receive him. Yu dreamed of it, grabbed the oncoming Xiao Er, and said, "Hey, let's come first and come first, the girl will arrive before them!"

Xiao Er was a little reluctant, and hurriedly said: "Please take more responsibility for the guest officer, and after greeting them, the little one will come to greet you immediately." The big men smiled and said: "This dinner table and the gambling table are the same reason, and the emphasis is on eating big and small." There are a lot of us, and a few points are big, and you have a small number of points, so naturally you have to let us have a few, hahaha. As they spoke, they saw that Xiao Er had already served a plate of cooked beef and a jar of wine, and while he picked up the beef, he poured wine and chewed and drank it.

Yu Meng was unhappy in his heart, and was about to scold them back, but Mo Junyan was afraid that Yu Meng would not forgive people, and when the time came, the matter would be big and it would not end well, so he hurriedly said: "This uncle is very right, anyway, the wine and food will be served soon, we are not in a hurry." Yu Meng glared at him, snorted, and then ignored it.

For this meal, Yu Meng only ate half a bowl and stopped eating, Mo Junyan said: "Senior sister, don't the dishes here match your appetite?" Yu Meng had a small temperament and said: "The dishes are right, the people are not right, how can you have an appetite?" Mo Junyan smiled and said, "Why are people not right?Who made our senior sister angry again?" Yu Meng glanced at him, and said angrily: "Who else but you?" said a flick of his chopsticks and went back to the room. Mo Junyan was stunned for a long time, confused, and said to himself: "Senior sister, what's wrong, where did I provoke her again, really." ”

A person behind him laughed and said, "Your little sister is jealous, my brother must be peeking at other girls and being looked at by her." She is wholeheartedly with you, you are good, and she is messing around with flowers and grass, although it is okay for a man to have three wives and four concubines, but after all, he is sorry for her. Brother doesn't look like a rich and noble family, the little girl is willing to follow you, that's the fate of the previous life, you can't live up to it. Others saw that they were lonely men and widows walking together, the two were not dressed luxuriously, Yu Meng was beautiful and compelling, it must be a couple who eloped outside, and they couldn't help but "persuade each other with good words".

Mo Junyan blushed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "No, uncle, she is my senior sister, we didn't escape without permission." The man was mistaken, and said with a smile: "In these years, the girl's family is much bigger than the boy's family, and the brother doesn't have to be embarrassed, haha." Mo Junyan saw that the depiction was getting darker and darker, so he had to smile awkwardly, and only then did he reveal it.

Yu Meng ran back to the room, slammed the door, and said angrily: "Dead Xiaojun, stinky Xiaojun, try to help outsiders and not help me, it's really hateful! Obviously, those big guys are bullying people, you don't help your sister teach them a lesson, but say that they are right! Treat you big-headed ghost!" The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she kicked the foot of the bed several times before she sat down angrily. She poured a glass of water and was about to drink it, when she heard a knock on the door of the room, followed by Mo Junyan's voice: "Senior sister, open the door, it's me, Junyan." ”

Yu Meng didn't answer, and when he said it again, he pouted and said, "What knock, I know it's you, it's you who won't open it." "Senior sister, don't be angry, I heard that there is a temple fair tomorrow, do you want to go and see it together?" Yu Meng was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment and said, "The temple fair...... What is there to see in the temple fair, if you don't go, you won't go. ”

Mo Junyan listened to her tone and said busily: "Senior sister, it has only been a short time since the spring equinox, and it is the beginning of March, I heard from the uncles and aunts outside that the Cangyan Mountain temple fair here is very famous, and it just so happens that we are not far away, and many villagers are about to rush there." At that time, the merchants will gather and the villagers will gather, and there will be many performances in the future, and the market will be full of dazzling, just to open the eyes. He knew that Yu Meng liked to go shopping and watch the excitement, so he couldn't help but deliberately exaggerate the grand occasion of the temple fair in the past.

Yu Meng was itchy when she heard this, but she still gritted her teeth and held back: "Didn't you say that you should listen to the master and go back to Kunlun early?

Mo Junyan knew that she was already moved, so he pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Although it will be delayed for a day, as long as you are happy, senior sister, it is not a big deal." His heart suddenly moved: "If I wasn't worried about Shi Shuai's safety, how could I keep urging you to go back, if you can roam the rivers and lakes with my sister, why not?"

Hearing only the sound of "gala", Yu Meng had already pushed the door out, and said with a smile: "Xiaojun, what you said, it's just one day, and I don't want more." Mo Junyan couldn't help laughing, bowed down and said, "Yes!" The two were reconciled. The flavor of the first-line dishes in Baoding is salty, and the donkey meat noodles are the signboard, Mo Junyan knew that Yu Meng was not full, and asked the kitchen to make some Gaocheng palace noodles, accompanied by some barbecued donkey meat, Yu Meng was in a good mood, and he gladly accepted it.

Early the next morning, the two followed the crowd to Cangyan Mountain in JZ County.

According to the villagers, the Cangyan Mountain temple fair originated from the worship of the Holy Mother in the mountain, it is said that the daughter of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty Nanyang Princess became a monk in Cangyan Mountain, commonly known as the "Three Emperor Aunts", and was respected as the "Holy Mother" by the local villagers. The Three Emperor Gu was born in March, and Nirvana was born in October. Jingcheng folk customs in March for the imperial aunt to send single clothes, October to send cotton clothes, meaning the change of seasons, then into a temple fair. By the Ming Dynasty, the nature of temple fairs had shifted from simple sacrifices to comprehensive market activities.

Before arriving at Jingzhuang, I saw everyone carrying an open sedan chair of eight lifting halls, stopping in the center of the street, and everyone gathered up and surrounded the open sedan chair. Yu Meng was puzzled, so he asked: "What are they doing?" Mo Junyan didn't know what to do, and said: "This is the Luan Driver of the Third Emperor Aunt, which contains her old man's real body, and she is about to act as a driver!" I saw that there was an incense case in front of the car, boys and girls left and right, red candles were burning, cigarette smoke was swirling, suona was playing in unison, and the old women and young women of Jingzhuang Village did not leave Luan's driving left and right, and there were words in their mouths.

Yu Meng's temperament is just curious, he has never seen it in Kunlun, he has to take a look, and he has seen it, but he is by no means a layman, a good man and a woman. She saw that although there were many people in this temple fair, there was nothing eye-catching, although she didn't say it in her mouth, she didn't think so: "It's really superstitious, it seems that this temple fair is nothing more than that, it's better to hurry as soon as possible, maybe there will be something interesting on the road." ”

When Mo Junyan saw the look on her face, he knew that she was not interested, so he took her to the market to wander around. Shimen and Jingcheng are all small counties, although they are outside the Beijing Division, but they are far from the prosperity of the Beijing Division, and there is no merit in collecting mountain goods in the wild. The two walked around, looking for a stall and a small restaurant to eat, fortunately, the food in the town is authentic, donkey meat, barbecued pork is very delicious, bean noodles, pancakes are also quite authentic.

The two discussed and decided to travel overnight, so they slept separately in the afternoon.

At night, Jingzhuang is still lively, Yu and Mo don't see much, and they leave after hitting horses.

The two walked for two hours, and when they saw that the horsepower was lacking, they dismounted and walked slowly, and the official road was gradually overflowed by grass, and the next walk was even more rocky. Mo Junyan said: "Senior sister, we are just afraid that we will go the wrong way, and most of the previous turns will be wrong." Yu Meng said: "The mountain road is a bit rugged, and the horses are not easy to walk. Let's cross this hill and see how it goes. ”

In spring, the grass grows, there are few people, and at night, it is common to get lost. The two walked for a few more miles, and suddenly saw an occasional light of half a fire in the valley on the left, Mo Junyan was overjoyed, turned back to Yu Meng and said: "Senior sister, there is a fire in front, and most of them are Orion Mountain Farmers, you might as well ask the path." The two walked briskly towards the light.

The lights were far away, and they had been walking for a long time, but they were always flickering. Yu Mengqi said: "This light is a little strange, it seems to move. Mo Junyan pondered as he walked, and said, "I'm afraid it's also a pedestrian, but who will it be in the middle of the night?"

Yu Meng smiled, pulled Jun Yan and said, "Leave the horse here, let's go over and see for ourselves, most of the time there is something." Mo Junyan hesitated slightly, although he was calmer than Yu Meng, but after all, he was also a teenager, so he nodded. Moreover, with the wit and martial arts of the two of them, even if they encounter any strange things, they don't have to be afraid.

Yu and Mo Yun took up light skills and quickly swept over, and sure enough, they saw about ten people in front of them, all of whom were strong men, two of whom were carrying oil-paper lanterns. Yu and Mo followed from afar, and saw that there seemed to be a team of people coming in front of them, and the two teams of people gradually approached, and the oncoming people clapped their hands three times, paused, and struck three more times. The group of people in front of Yu and Mo also high-fived three times, followed by three more hits. The two teams gathered in one and sat down around the campfire. Yu and Mo were more than ten feet away from them, and their conversation was not audible.

Yu Meng's curiosity was aroused, and she wanted to get closer to listen, Mo Junyan grabbed her sleeve and said in a low voice, "Wait a little longer." Yu Meng understood, and saw that there were several more groups of people coming from the east and west, all of whom came in the direction of the bonfire. Mo Junyan waited for them to approach, signaled Yu Meng, and the two of them ran out of more than ten zhang without a point, and fell down in the grass behind the group of people. The people didn't notice it, but only checked the code for the people coming from the east and west, and after checking that it was correct, they sat down again.

At this time, the two sides were only three or four feet apart, and although the group of people spoke in a loud voice, it was still clear. I only heard an old voice say: "Thanks to all of you, Ruan Mou has thanked you for this!" Everyone hurriedly said: "Taihang Mountain Ruan Daxia saw the move, that is to look up to us and others, why be polite." ”

Mo Junyan said after hearing this: "It turned out to be Ruan Jin of the Taihang Sword Sect's 'Ten Directions Xuangang Sword'. "Yu Mengping doesn't care about the sect's history, he only knows that this surnamed Ruan is the number one person in the Taihang Sword Sect, but unlike Mo Junyan, he knows that he is Taihang Qisu, and he is the uncle of the head of the sect Feng Yusheng.

A few polite words, just listen to their respective narratives, these three groups of people in addition to dozens of people from the Taihang Ruan Jin faction, there is also a group of SX Lu Liang faction, led by the door master Xu Liulin, Lu Liang is famous for his leg method, Xu Liulin is known as "Shuofeng legs", and his feet are really good. The other group is the HN Yuntai faction, the Longmen faction, the Wangwu faction and other factions, led by the head of the Yuntai faction, Bingchuan, with a total of more than 30 people.

These three groups of people said a few more words, nothing more than admiring the other party's martial arts fame, and then a few more passers-by gathered, and a total of five waves came back and forth. The more Mo Junyan listened, the more strange he became, thinking that these people were all outstanding figures in the Northern Martial Arts, why did they suddenly gather in this remote mountain range? Seeing that Ruan Jin was short in stature, but his eyes were sharp, he couldn't help but thank him at this time, and he was obviously the initiator of this gathering.

I only heard Ruan Jin say: "Ruan Mouben also paid tribute to Master Wuben of Wutai Mountain and Master Miaohui of the Hengshan Sect, and invited them to come to preside over major events, but it is a pity that those two are outsiders, and they said that they did not want to intervene in worldly affairs, so they had to give up." Others even said a few words of "pity", and listened to him and said: "Fortunately, I invited the master of the door, the senior brother, etc., as well as other senior brothers and junior brothers, Ruan is really grateful, and I have thanked you on behalf of the Nangong family here." ”

Xu Liulin laughed and said, "Brother Ruan, don't do this, kill the younger brother." "Xu Liulin is about forty years old, tall, with a face like Zhu, and he looks quite straightforward. Shi Bingchuan has a rectangular face, his beard and hair are white, and he is the oldest, and he said at the moment: "I don't know if anyone from the Nangong family is here?"

Ruan Jin said: "The young master of Nangong and the old man said, please meet you tomorrow night, and the old man can lead you there." Shi Bingchuan nodded and stopped talking.

Exactly: "Not long after Fang came out of the tiger's den, he encountered a pack of wolves in the mountains." ”
