Chapter 8 Jiangxin Guyu IV
Yu Shao finally lit a fire on the palm-sized elephant rock, and after a moment of rest, he recovered some strength, and grilled a few fish. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe island opposite is close at hand, but Shen Bing can't let her wade anymore, she just pulled her back from the ghost gate, and she is still unusually weak, she hasn't eaten since she entered the restaurant yesterday, and she must eat some food to increase her physical strength. It's early in the morning, and there's smoke everywhere, so I don't pay much attention to the fireworks.
Shen Bing slowly recovered some vitality under the support of Yu Shao's internal force, and after eating some cooked food, he was helped onto the horse by Yu Shao, and swam to the island with Yu Shao, and walked along the shore of the island. When he walked to the west river of the island, Yu Shao helped Shen Bing to the Chengge in front of him to rest for a while, and saw a reef about the same size as Xiangyan. There were three corpses floating near Lion Rock, one of their clothes torn into strips, hooking some thorns and rotten trees on Lion Rock. Yu Shao thought that it was the three brothers of the Zhuge clan, and saw that they had a bad relationship with the Duwei Mansion for no reason, and died in a foreign country for their own benefit, but it created an opportunity for his Shen Bing to escape, but he had no hatred for them. Yu Shao couldn't bear it, so he let Shen Bing rest by himself, re-enter the river and swim to Shiyan, and get the three brothers to the island one by one.
The three brothers of the Zhuge clan have been swollen after a night of soaking, they are not gloomy but drive a small boat into the Oujiang River, in the river from time to time was swallowed by the waves, after drinking enough river water, they passed out, was swept to the lion rock by the flood, after the water receded, they were hooked by those thorny driftwood, but fortunately, they were not washed away by the river.
Yu Shao probed their snort with his index finger, but there was still a breath of life, although Yu Shao hated the arrogance of the three brothers, but there was no deep hatred with them, and it was not Yu Shao's person to see death and not save him, not to mention that saving people's lives was better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter. This Buddha Li Yu Shao still understands. Yu Shao tried hard to squeeze out the river water in the belly of the three brothers, but if he wanted to breathe into his mouth to save people, Yu Shao still couldn't get out of his mouth, so he just used his orchid finger to prop up their big mouths so that fresh air could enter. Thanks to the three brothers' strong physique, they didn't know the nature of the water but they just supported the river in the water, and under the squeeze of Yu Shao, they all woke up after pouring out the sewage, but they were weak and couldn't stand up.
Yu Shao was also relieved to see that the three brothers had woken up, but he immediately thought that once the three brothers regained their strength, they would still force him to tell him the whereabouts of Li Hai and Zhuge Feng. Although Yu Shao really doesn't know where they went now, these three brothers will not give up, and they must think that Yu Shao knows where they went. In order to save some trouble, Yu Shao left the vicinity of Shiyan with Shen Bing on his back while the three brothers were not able to be strong against him, and headed all the way towards the center of the island.
Jiangxinyu was two small islands in ancient times. Xie Lingyun, the county guard of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, once boarded Guyu and wrote "The turbulence tends to be extinct, and Guyu is charming in Zhongchuan." The clouds and the sun reflect each other, and the air and water are clear and fresh". After the Tang Dynasty, Fanyu and Futu were gradually built on the island.
Yu Shao finally found something to eat from under the east tower of Jiangxinyu. The hot chaos ate a few large bowls, and these were the people on the island who had set up their stalls early for the sake of the tourists' business. Yu Shao took out some broken silver from the package to pay the bill, most of his silver was gone, and the few remaining silver tickets were also soaked in the river water. Now I can only eat the chaotic food, and I still have some money left for the boat to go to land, and I could have comfortably gone to sea on the big ship that has been prepared for a long time, but now I will soon become a beggar. Yu Shaofang knew the benefits of money, and he couldn't laugh or cry. However, Yu Shao is open-minded and doesn't care about becoming a beggar, but is worried that Shen Bing can't endure the pain of having no money.
After Shen Bing ate some hot chaos. I drank some ginger soup again, which was given by the owner of the stall. Slowly, Shen Bing's body warmed up from the inside out, and he had regained some of his former demeanor. Look up along the eaves inside and outside the east tower, there is a green tree at the top of the tower, the hawker told Yu Shao that this is a natural growth, it is a hundred-year-old banyan tree, cultivated without soil, the roots hang down in the tower, and it is evergreen all year round. Yu Shao was also amazed when he saw it, so he simply carried Shen Bing up the tower and asked the vendor to help take care of his white horse.
There are flat seats, railings and eaves on the periphery of the east tower, and there are escalators to go straight to the top of the tower. Yu Shao and Shen Bing overlook the surging Oujiang River and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Lucheng. At this time, the sun rose, and the morning glow dyed the tide red, which reminded them of the bloody wind and rain last night. also remembered that he was still under Liao Chengyi's control at the moment.
On a whim, Shen Bing wanted to take a look at the West Tower on the opposite side, Yu Shao agreed, and both of them understood that there was no way to leave this isolated island at once, not only was they penniless, but Wenzhou Wei on the other side was even more dangerous, and they must be really searching for their whereabouts under Liao Chengyi's order, it is useless to be anxious now, it is better to enjoy the picturesque scenery in front of them, and it is better to stay away from the three Zhuge brothers.
Yu Shao and Shen Bing were right, Liao Chengyi knew that Yu Shao was a capable person, and the turbulent Oujiang River did not need their lives, although the people who came back to recover said that they saw Yu Shao and them swept to the center of the river by the big waves, but Liao Chengyi still hoped that Yu Shao and Shen Bing were still alive, and they had to see people die or corpses in order to have an explanation with the court, otherwise they would not be able to eat and go around. So he ordered the five thousand households of Wenzhou Wei to go along the river to find the whereabouts of Yu Shao and Shen Bing, but they didn't expect Yu Shao and them to be on the Jiangxin Lonely Island in front of them, and the entangled Zhuge brothers were still alive, not washed away by the flood, and they were also on Jiangxin Island. Liao Chengyi was so anxious that he didn't expect to go to Jiangxinyu to search.
Yu Shao rode a white horse, sat in front of Shen Bing and went to the West Tower, looking at it from afar, the clear water and blue sky, the West Peak Mountain covered with green all over the body held the brick-red pagoda, and the tower brake went straight into the clouds, which was magnificent. Nearby, the river breeze blows the copper wind chimes of the forty-two eaves corners, and the crisp cry of the birds on the branches around is symphonic. The bluestone bench is placed around the tower, and ten thousand trees are sparse. They climb the tower and go up, there are small Buddha shrines on each side of each floor of the tower, the built-in stone carved Buddha statues, the shape is exquisite, the demeanor is natural.
At the top of the tower, Shen Bing snuggled tightly beside Yu Shao, looked up at Yu Shao's big eyes, and looked at Yu Shao's big eyes in a daze, knowing that he must be a little homesick, last night's escape made Shen Bing feel that he owed Yu Shao too much kindness, so he pulled Yu Shao's sleeve and said to Yu Shao in a soft voice: "Brother Yuzi, do you miss your family by Taihu Lake?" ”
Yu Shao replied nonchalantly: "Some." ”
"Brother Yuzi, I dragged you down, and it was me who stuck to you with a dead face." Shen Bing was already in tears.
Yu Shao saw Shen Bing like this, so he comforted: "Don't say that. Although I am much older than you, I am actually a hairy guy who has no experience, and I wanted to come out to experience the rivers and lakes. ”
"But Brother Yuzi has had several adventures in order to protect me, and I feel very uncomfortable, Brother Yuzi, I am lonely now, and I can't repay your kindness."
"I've always regarded you as my own sister, and I have the responsibility to protect you as a brother for my sister, what do you want to repay, if I can't even protect you, I'll be a man in vain."
"Brother Yuzi is kind to me, I know it in my heart. But I don't want Brother Yuzi to die for me, I was scared when I remembered the wind and rain last night, I shouted at you on horseback, you didn't hear it, I couldn't see you anymore, I was really scared at that time. ”
"It's all over, your brother Yuzi is fateful, as long as I still have a life, I won't leave you."
"Well, I know. When you were on the elephant rock, you thought I was dead, and you cried so sadly, I heard it. I can't describe the mood at that time, Brother Yuzi, do you know, if you die. I will die with you without hesitation, I don't think it matters whether I go to Yunnan or not now, if there is no pursuit from the imperial court. I'll go back with you, I can't live without you. ”
Yu Shao was also very moved when he heard Shen Bing's heartfelt words, touched Shen Bing's head and said, "I won't give up halfway, the ghost gate pass last night has already come, what difficulties can resist us, I will definitely escort you to grandpa safely." ”
Shen Bing wiped away his tears and said with a smile: "Brother Yuzi, if you don't dislike it, will I marry you with my own body?" ”
"Ah, this, this, you little girl, don't think nonsense." Yu Shao was a little caught off guard and replied.
"I don't mind competing with Sister Bai for the position of wife, you can also use me as a maid."
"You're only a few years old, so you know what love and fate are."
"I don't understand, but I know that Sister Bai only has you in her heart, and I only have you in my heart, I don't want to leave you in my life, I don't know if this counts as love, anyway, I won't marry you in the future." Shen Bing began to pout mischievously.
Yu Shao blushed a little when Shen Bing said, and scolded in a low voice: "I don't know what kind of bad things you think about this little head, I'll be angry if you talk such nonsense again." ”
Shen Bing smiled and said, "I haven't seen Brother Yuzi get angry. After speaking, Xiang Yushao grimaced.
Yu Shao couldn't help laughing, only barely restrained, and said, "I really can't take you little ghost." After speaking, he shook his head and looked down at the entire Jiangxinyu, and stopped talking to Shen Bing, lest Shen Bing have any ideas and make himself embarrassed, and he would never have any thoughts about such a young girl anyway.
Yu Shao looked at the hinterland of Jiangxinyu on the west tower, and found that there were many pavilions and pavilions, embellished among the lush trees, and at this time it was raining lightly, and the sky was really changing. I came down to the tower and came to the central hinterland of Jiangxin Island, where there is a temple called "Jiangxin Temple". Jiangxin Temple is divided into three halls: front, middle and back. The front hall is the palace of the king of heaven, there is a long corridor in the east and west, and the bell and drum tower are placed at both ends. The ancient bell of the Song Dynasty still exists. The nave is the Yuantong Hall, which is the most spectacular, and is dedicated to the Goddess of Mercy Bodhisattva. The sill in the hall is full of plaques. It is written by famous artists. On both sides of the temple gate, there is a superimposed couplet entitled Song Wang Shipeng's book: "The cloud dynasty is scattered, and the tide is long and long." The ancient trees around the temple are towering to the sky, and the scenery is quiet. Jiangxinyu is indeed a beautiful scenery, the east and west twin towers are volleying, reflecting the Jiangxin Temple, standing in front of the main hall of the Jiangxin Temple, looking at the deer city in the south, the smoke and rain are like silk, which is in line with the poetry of "the spring breeze and the south bank of the green river". The predecessor inscribed a poem: "It is smoke and rain, the east wind does not open, and the sky is empty overnight, dyeing the city green." It has always been called "Oujiang Penglai".
Yu Shao and Shen Bing followed the good men and women into the Jiangxin Temple, and there were many tourists at the moment, all praying sincerely in front of the Guanyin Master, so that the gods and Buddhas could bless the health of the whole family. Just when Shen Bing also knelt down to pray for Yu Shao, Yu Shao saw that the three Zhuge brothers also came in.
They saw that Yu Shao was not as domineering as yesterday, and when they woke up in a daze, they knew that Yu Shao had saved them, and it was not easy to challenge Yu Shao in front of everyone, and they also accepted his saving grace, and politely saluted Yu Shao with a fist.
Yu Shao also made a return salute and said: "I am also very pleased to see that several people have been out of the worry of their lives. Yu Shao said this, and he also showed them that he saved them, so he couldn't forget his feelings soon.
Zhuge Wu Neng said: "I thank you for saving your life, I can't repay it, if he is in trouble, we will definitely repay your kindness." ”
"It's easy to say, I have no grievances with Your Excellency, and I thanked you for your help yesterday to let us escape from the tiger's mouth. Even if these two times are evened, you don't have to admit my feelings. ”
"What Childe said is reasonable, I have to be cheeky to accept it, what if Childe is convenient to have a glass of water and wine together?" Zhuge Wu can invite.
Yu Shaozheng was worried about having a penniless lunch, so he readily agreed and said, "Then it would be disrespectful." ”
Everyone laughed and came to a restaurant next to Jiangxin Temple, Zhuge Wuneng ordered good wine and food to the restaurant, Shen Bing saw that the three brothers who were fierce last night actually invited guests to dinner, although there were some pimples in his heart, but with Yu Shao by his side, Shen Bing was also very bold, and he ate and drank unceremoniously.
After three rounds of drinking, Zhuge Wu still couldn't stand it and asked Yu Shaolai, "Can the prince tell me the whereabouts of Zhuge Feng?" ”
Yu Shao narrowed his eyes and replied slowly, "I know you will definitely ask, but I really don't know. ”
"Childe must know the reason, that Zhuge Feng not only stole the secret book of this door, but also abducted my daughter-in-law, Childe is a righteous person, and I hope to inform you, I promise you not to hurt Zhuge Feng and Yu Yan, I can also fulfill him, as long as he returns to the secret book of this door." Zhuge Wu could say in a somewhat pleading tone.
Yu Shao knew that it was impossible for the three Zhuge brothers to find them, so he said truthfully: "I lied to you before, and I also wanted to go with them, but I was watched by you in the restaurant last night, and I was surrounded by the people of the Duwei Mansion, we couldn't make it, and now they have long since left the Oujiang River and don't know where to go." ”
"Didn't they leave any clue where they were going?"
"Like us, they don't know much about the situation at sea, there are many islands on the sea, and several of them are chasing after them, so they must go to sea as far as possible."
The three Zhuge brothers exchanged their heads and ears, and decided that Yu Shao was not lying, and his mood was a little depressed, and he worked hard and scheming, but he didn't get any benefits, and he was despised by his martial arts colleagues, and he also lost his martial arts cheats. These things will not be comfortable on anyone, the three brothers are extremely depressed, and they are entangled in how to deal with the people in the Duwei Mansion, so they have to go back to Zhuge Bagua Village immediately to discuss with the old man.
What they said was all local dialect, Yu Shao couldn't understand it, but he basically knew that what the three brothers said was tolerable, and the matter had come to this point, and the three brothers had no choice but to give up pursuing Zhuge Feng and them. The three brothers had run out of food, and they wanted to leave this ghost place early and let Yu Shao and them continue to eat and drink. Yu Shao was very happy, and politely sent him out of the door of the restaurant, and returned to Shen Bing to continue eating and drinking. (To be continued......)
