Over the years, since Emperor Yanwu ascended the throne, Nanzhao has become rich, when Emperor Yanwu came to the small town of Hesang with a private visit, ate a plate of fish in Manjianglou, and praised a wonderful word. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info This plate of fish has since become famous in Nanzhao, if it weren't for the problem of Hesang land and raw materials, I'm afraid this Manjianglou would have opened a chain store in this country. This fish can only be caught in the depths of the Qingshui River outside the town. The so-called depth, that is, the section of the Qingshui River from the upper reaches of the mountains, the water flow is turbulent, the high mountains on both sides of the bank are towering, the sun does not shine in, and the black is as deep as a valley. The person who can catch this fish, there is only one person in Hesang Town, that is, Li Jiangchi, Old Man Li.

On this day, Li Jiangchi also rowed a bamboo raft against the current to look for fish. At the end of the bamboo raft sat a little girl with bare feet.

The further you go, the greater the resistance and the dimmer the light. Li Jiangchi leaned the bamboo raft to the bank of the mountain, attached to the mountain rock, took out a large iron hook like a claw and threw it at the mountain rock, waited for the iron hook to hook, and then pulled the rope behind the iron hook to let the bamboo row advance. There are two such large hooks, which are alternately inserted into the mountain rock to make the bamboo raft lean deeper into the Qingshui River.

Li Jiangchi was sweating profusely on the bamboo raft, and he was so tired that he was panting. The little girl was also on the side to help pull the rope. After they leaned forward a little more, the little girl spoke: "Grandpa, it's getting darker and darker here, why are we here to catch fish?" ”

"The moon is cool." The old man exhaled, "You are already seven years old, Grandpa is old, I have to teach you this fishing skill." I also want you to learn to learn books and paintings, and marry a good family in the future. ”

Li Yueliang frowned: "Grandpa, our family is poor, why do I still have to study?" ”

"Who said our family was poor? That's called low-key. Li Jiangchi stepped on the bamboo row, felt the silver ticket stuffed in the soles of his feet, and threw the hook out again, "Thanks to this fish!" ”

Li Yueliang could see the waves rolling on the edge of the bamboo row. The river has become unfathomable, it is no longer the calm and clear river of green water in its impression, it is clearly a beast that can eat people at any time between this valley. Li Yueliang stopped talking, and pulled the rope harder with her grandfather. The resistance is even greater.

Li Yueliang had never seen such a dark place, and it was more depressing than the night. There are oil lamps and candles at home, and the moon outside, but there is nothing here. She could only vaguely see her grandfather's busy figure.

"The moon is cool." Li Jiangchi looked back at her, his eyes glowing with a faint dark cyan light. Li Yueliang was so frightened that she sat down on the bamboo raft and covered her mouth with her hand.

"The moon is cool." Li Jiangchi said while busy, "Do you know why I am the only one who can catch this fish? ”

"Grandpa...... I do not know. ”

"It's extremely cloudy here, torches can't be brought in, and the water is fast, even if you master the way to move forward. will also be lost in this place where you can't see your fingers. He said, "In our family, there is a genetic disease, just like you just saw, grandpa's eyes will be dark green in the darkest places. I can see every inch of it, every millimeter, like day. ”

Li Yueliang was stunned for a moment and asked him, "Grandpa, why then...... So why can't I? ”

Li Jiangchi took out a cloth towel from his waist and stuffed it into the little girl's arms: "Yueliang, you tie this cloth to your eyes, and you must not take it off without my permission." ”

Li Yueliang nodded in the dark, covered the cloth towel over her eyes, tied it tightly, and tied a dead knot at the back of her head.

The bamboo raft has reached the deepest part of the valley. Li Jiangchi picked up the harpoon and was about to start work, but he saw that in the turbulent river, there were things that did not belong to the river being squeezed by the current.

Li Jiangchi's brows tightened, and the thing was approaching at a rapid speed. He raised his harpoon and stabbed it hard. The harpoon's spike was hindered and broke through through the past. Li Jiangchi squatted down, raised the harpoon, and saw something on the fork. It was a piece of cloth, and the harpoon was clearly only a tip of the cloth. Li Jiangchi grabbed the piece of cloth along the harpoon and dragged it onto the bamboo row, and sure enough, something was involved at the end of the cloth.

This is a fine fabric, embroidered with dark red silk threads, each with incomparably vivid and fine workmanship.

The humanoid object was pulled closer and closer by Li Jiangchi towards the bamboo row. It's a boy.

Li Jiangchi scooped the young body out of the icy river water.

"Grandpa, what's wrong?" Li Yueliang heard a sound on the bamboo row, and turned her head away.

Li Jiangchi looked at the little man lying on the bamboo raft with a weak breath, glanced at the boy's jade-like little face, and then hugged him to Li Yueliang's side: "It seems that he fell down." ”

Li Yueliang touched her hand to the side and touched the brocade dress on the boy's body.

"Yueliang, Grandpa is going fishing, you take care of the child later."

She fumbled again, then took up her little hands, which were as big as hers, and those hands were cold. Li Yueliang kept rubbing those hands with her own hands. But there was no sign of warmth in the child's hand. She let go of his hand and began to wring the water out of his clothes. Li Yueliang had never touched such a good fabric, she twisted it a little bit with pity, and the koi in black was squeezed together in her hands, and it was out of shape.

His clothes are no longer so wet, but his body is still cold. She fell on top of the child, and he froze like a piece of ice. The breath was extremely weak, and Li Yueliang was afraid that he would die on the river like this. She pressed her face against the child's neck and held him in her arms.

"Don't die......" Li Yueliang whispered in his ear, "I'll sing to you, don't die......"

"Floral and grassy... The spring rain fell on the palace, and the general led the troops to guard the frontier......" Li Yueliang's singing voice flowed weakly in the sound of rushing water.

"In the twenty-eighth year, the east is coming, and the general returns to the city and breaks through the palace gate...... Plum blossoms, plum blossoms... Killing the king in front of the palace of Wanhe......"

She hummed the folk song innocently, and the breathing of the person in her arms became steady.

After catching a basket of fish, Li Jiangchi put down the harpoon, threw the iron hook on the mountain rock behind him, fixed it, and then let go of the front one. The bamboo raft sticks to the rocks and stops smoothly in the rapids again and again, and leans downstream in the rapids little by little.

Li Jiangchi stopped what he was doing and looked at the two children behind him. Then he walked over lightly and reached for the boy's coat. After taking off his coat, he gently put him back into the arms of the sleeping little girl. Li Jiangchi checked the clothes in his hand, such a delicate pattern seemed familiar.

With a flick of the long arm, countless small dark red koi fish jumped into the air, and jumped into the churning Qingshui River with the black brocade clothes.

He suddenly raised his throat: "Plum blossoms, plum blossoms...... From then on, the spring flowers will be ...... south," Li Jiangchi sang, and his loud voice echoed in the valley.

Li Jiangchi held a bamboo basket in one hand, Li Yueliang in the other, and a little boy on his shoulder, and walked towards the town.

Back home, Li Jiangchi put the little boy on Li Yueliang's bed, told Li Yueliang to stay at home, and went out to Manjiang Tower.

Manjianglou's business is still so prosperous, seeing that Old Man Li is old, the boss can't wait to rush down from the upstairs, while shouting: "My ancestor, you can count it!" Seeing Li Jiangchi's basket full of fish, he was even more overjoyed, and asked the man to find a bucket and weigh it. After settling the weight and quantity, he stuffed two silver tickets into Li Jiangchi's hand, said hello and turned around to get busy.

Li Jiangchi turned his head and walked towards a ready-to-wear store. He picked out a set of cotton shirts and bought a dozen meat buns at the bun shop next door. Finally, I went to the hospital and hired a doctor.

"Fortunately, I was rescued by you, and if I have one more hour, I am afraid that I will not be able to hold on." The doctor gently squeezed the little boy's wrist, "Give him a change of clothes, I will prescribe a medicine, and drink it before eating every day, three times a day." I'm afraid that it is the root of the disease, and it is going to fall. ”

"Doctor Xie." Li Jiangchi nodded and put the newly bought clothes on the boy. The light blue lining and black coat were tens of thousands of miles away from the clothes he had worn before.

The doctor turned around and was about to write a prescription, when he saw Li Yueliang standing at the door: "Xiao Liang? What's wrong with your eyes? Then he went and took her hand.

Li Yueliang habitually took a step back and said with a smile: "No, no, no, it's not a big deal." ”

The doctor retracted his hand and looked at Old Man Li.

"It's out of the way, she's just playing a game."

The doctor smiled and shook his head, picked up his pen and continued to write about the pharmacy. Li Jiangchi gave the doctor a few pieces of silver, took the prescription and went out with the doctor to grab the medicine.

Only Li Yueliang and the child were left at home. Li Yueliang came to the side of the bed and grabbed his hand. His hands were no longer as cold as they had been. Li Yueliang lay on top of him and listened to his heartbeat: "Little girl...... Wake up soon......"

Li Yueliang fell asleep like this, leaning on his chest and falling asleep.

When Li Jiangchi returned home, he began to decoction the medicine. He thought of the dark black silk, too luxurious to be dangerous.

Li Jiangchi paced into the room with the medicine, staring at him tightly with a pair of dark eyes.
