Chapter 135: First Sight in the Cave

After the first day, the villagers, relatives and friends began to walk around each other, and the street suddenly became lively, with noise, noise, greetings, and child beatings one after another. Xu You welcomed several waves of guests, all of whom were familiar with the neighbors and counties such as Dusan, and in the afternoon, Su Tang took Fang Xiuniang to visit the New Year, and sent hand-embroidered towels, waist picks, sachets and other gadgets, as well as some delicious pastries and rouge gouache.

After escaping in a car last time, the mustard between the two has dissipated, Xu You flipped through the box without seeing it, and said with a smile: "I know these girls in the house, what about our man's gifts?" ”

Su Tang sneered at each other and said, "A man is ambitious in all directions, how can he stick to the things in this box?" ”

Several people were holding back their laughter to watch the play, Xu You touched his nose and said, "It's the New Year, can you talk a little bit?" ”

"Mozi said that those who are not strong will are not wise, and Lang Jun must have a far-reaching ambition to become a wise man, is it because he can forget his ambition during the New Year?"

Xu You sighed in the sky, put his hands behind his back, shook his head and left, and muttered: "Only women and villains are difficult to raise!" ”

Su Tang's beautiful eyes widened slightly, and said, "What are you muttering?" ”

Xu You didn't say a word, and ran away with a smoke, leaving the women in the room to laugh loudly. The autumn equinox was a little apprehensive, and said, "Isn't it bad to laugh at Xiaolang like this?" ”

Dong Solstice hugged her small waist, put her pretty face on her shoulders, and said; "Xiaolang won't care about our occasional presumptuousness, Miss Su is right, you can't forget your ambition during the New Year, men have men's ambitions, and our girl's ambition is to play tricks on Xiaolang!"

Of course, Xu You will not stay in Jingyuan with nothing to do and accept the tricks of the winter solstice, and he will go to other people's houses to worship one by one. First of all, Lu Hui, Lu Hui was not in the Yamen, and after asking about his whereabouts, he learned that he had gone to Wu County, and he must have taken advantage of the festival to go to the homes of his bosses to do some trouble. This habit is the same throughout the ages, nothing unusual, Xu You left a gift and said goodbye. Then there was Dusan Province, and then there were several prestigious scholars in Qiantang. He is famous, and he was set by Zhang Zihua to be seven products, no longer an ordinary Qi Min cloth clothes, everyone is proud of getting acquainted, so every time he arrives at a house, he is immediately gathered by the crowd to watch, and from time to time there are little girls eyebrows and flirts, which is a bit of the style of future celebrities going out on the street.

According to the "Asking Rites and Customs", the first day of the first lunar month is the first day, the second day is the dog, the third day is the pig, the fourth day is the sheep, the fifth day is the cow, the sixth day is the horse, and the seventh day is the human. If the Yuan Day is the starting point of the renewal of Vientiane, then the Human Day is the beginning of the renewal of people's lives, so the imperial court law gives officials seven days of vacation every year, starting from the Yuan Day and ending with the Human Day.

"This is a seven-vegetable soup made of seven kinds of vegetables such as hollyhock, cranberry, leek, radish, mushroom, winter melon, orchid, etc., Xiaolang must remember to eat it, not left, let alone poured out, otherwise, this year's blessings will be gone!"

People eat seven vegetable soup every day, this habit will also be in later generations, Xu You is no stranger, picked up the bowl and tasted it, and praised: "Delicious and mellow, seven flavors are redundant, you can still make such a delicacy, autumn equinox, your skills have risen greatly!" ”

Autumn equinox smiled's eyes bent into crescent moons, and said, "I learned from Sister Fang, and what she made was delicious." I'm so stupid, I only learned 30% after two days of study! ”

"Thirty percent is already incredible!" Xu You looked up and saw that the hair bun of the autumn equinox was wearing a silk figure cut from paper, and he smiled and said, "Who cut the silk thread?" Too ugly, right? ”

"Ugly, I think it's pretty good!" The autumn equinox looked up hard, wanting to take a look at the silk on his head, but he rolled his eyes, very cute, and said: "Sister Winter Solstice cut it, she only cut this one, and after cutting it, she felt bored and went to other things, and the others were cut by Sister Frost." ”

Cutting silk is a routine activity on a human day, or carved gold and pasted on the screen, or cut into a human shape with colored paper and worn in a bun. Xu You saw that the autumn equinox really liked this ugly man, so he was narrow-minded, and put it on his head, turned around and walked out of the door.

Autumn Equinox blushed his little face, and chased after him and said: "Xiaolang, I'll find you another good-looking one, Sister Frost is very good." This one...... I like this the most, can you give it back to me? ”

"Not good!"

Xu You is tall, he can't reach it on tiptoe on the autumn equinox, and he can't use force with his own Xiaolang, just like a kitten around his body. The two were making a fuss, and the frost came in from the courtyard gate with a copper basin, grabbing the grass ash and chestnut beans in the basin and throwing them around, hearing the sound of the autumn equinox, he stopped and turned his head to look over, and said with a smile: "On the autumn equinox, you hold Xiaolang and let him not move, and then go to pick the ropes, isn't it okay?" ”

The autumn equinox immediately acted according to the plan, hugged Xu You, and firmly fixed his hands, but then he was dumbfounded, and said, "Sister, I hugged it, but how can I pick it?" ”

Xu You laughed and said, "You don't have enough hands, right?" ”

Frost walked over angrily, put down the copper plate, gently put the slender hand on Xu You's shoulder, stood on tiptoe, the slightly bulging crisp chest almost touched, the soft and weak delicate body exuded a faint fragrance, and the hanging hair swayed in the wind, indescribably charming and moving.

She took off the silk and handed it to the autumn equinox, glanced at Xu You, and said, "If you have time to tease the autumn equinox, it is better to help Fenghu Langjun and them call cattle and horses to recruit miscellaneous animals!" ”

In addition to eating seven vegetable soups and cutting people, people also have to call for cows, horses and miscellaneous animals, so that the New Year can be full of cattle and horses, and miscellaneous animals are full. Xu You tidied up his robe and said with a smile: "No need, I'm waiting for someone!" ”

"Wait for someone?" Lu Shuang was puzzled and said: "The friends who should be moving back and forth are almost all moving around, will there be any guests coming to the door today?" ”

"There should be no more guests for the New Year, but don't forget, Renri, but you have to climb!"

"Ah, how did I forget this?" Lu Shuang slapped his forehead and said, "Was Xiaolang invited by someone to pay New Year's greetings a few days ago, and he was going to climb together today?" ”

"It's not Zhan Hong's kid yet......"

Before the words fell, Wu Shan came to report: "Zhan Langjun and the other nine people were waiting outside the door, saying that he had made an appointment with Xiaolang the day before yesterday, and he would climb Longshi Mountain today to enjoy the scenery and write poems." ”

Longshi Mountain is between Qiantang Lake and Qiantang River, the peaks and peaks are beautiful, the strange stones and caves, the bamboo trees are intertwined, it is a good place for the people to climb high on the seventh day of the first month.

Xu You said with a smile: "The ground of Qiantang is evil, say who is coming!" Go, invite them in! ”

Zhan Hong has since re-taken over the Zhibin Building, and he has to show up and socialize everywhere, so he has made a lot of friends. This time, I had to invite Xu You, firstly, the relationship between the two was extraordinary, and secondly, I wanted to take advantage of Xu You's east wind to put gold on my face. As the saying goes, the sedan chair is carried by everyone, and Xu You has settled in Qiantang, and there is no harm in having more contacts with local scholars.

introduced each other, except for Zhan Hong, only one person caught Xu You's attention. The man's name was Guo Sushu, his family was wealthy, he was a scholar, and he thought very highly of himself, but he never had a fixed product, and his words and deeds were very arrogant.

"Shichiro, it's not too early, should we leave right away? Don't you know, there must be a lot of people going to Longshi Mountain today, and they go late, they can't occupy a good place, and they can't enjoy the good scenery. ”

"Oh, will there be a lot of them?"

"At least 100 people, men, women and children, but anyone who is a little Yaxing, will go to Longshi Mountain today." Zhan Hong smiled: "There are also many swingers who deliberately go to spy on other people's girls......"

Guo Sushu said coldly: "Qingquan, you don't understand what Xu Langjun means, he is famous, because he is afraid that there will be many people and cause a sensation and cause inconvenience to everyone." ”

Zhan Hong said clearly, and hurriedly said: "Ru Hui, you misunderstood, Qilang must not mean this!" ”

Xu You smiled and didn't answer. Seeing that Xu You didn't fight back, Su Shu felt bored, so he snorted and said don't look over. Zhan Hong was a little embarrassed, looked at Xu You, Xu You didn't care, and said, "Let's go, climb the mountain early, so as not to go late and not even have a place to stand." ”

Longshi Mountain looks like a sleeping dragon from afar, the majestic posture is handsome, the foot of the mountain, the people around all over the place flock to it, the crowd is crowded, and the grand occasion is unprecedented. Renri ascending is different from the elegant collection of literati, it is a more popular and more popular folk ritual, as long as you can walk, you can come to Longshi Mountain to climb high and enjoy the scenery, no need to cross the river, and do not need to watch the pot and chant poetry.

Following the mighty crowd, the scenery of Longshi Mountain is like a picture scroll spread out inch by inch in front of Xu You, and the bluestone path is always entangled between the green trees and bamboos. Along the way, there are pavilions such as Liufang, Wenying, and True Fun for people to rest, and from time to time you can see people sitting on the ground, or open the curtain, talk and laugh and drink freely in the small world, or open the door, let the breeze blow on your face, and watch the clouds roll up.

When he arrived at the mountainside, Zhan Hong proposed to visit the Hidden Dragon Cave, so he changed his route, and came to several thrilling mountain passes, trekking through the thorny cliffs, and came to the entrance of the cave.

There is a stone well the size of a bowl outside the cave, more than three feet deep, clear and sweet spring water overflows from the bottom of the well, fills the whole well, it is said that it does not overflow when it is flooded, it does not dry up in a big drought, it is very magical.

"Lang Jun, I heard that there are two dragons sleeping in this cave, one green and one white, the green is fierce, and often goes down the mountain to eat people, let's come in like this, will we just meet the green dragon?" The delicate and childish woman's voice came from the cave, with a lingering echo, into the ears of Xu You and the others.

"Qingzhi, you are the most timid, I said I couldn't come here last night, you shouted to come, and today you came, but you were noisy next to Lang Jun. Hmph, let's see if I take you out to play next time! This girl has a crisp voice, and speaks quickly and urgently, slightly similar to the winter solstice, and has the same sharp teeth.

"Qingluo, I'm not cowardly, but others say that there is an evil dragon in the cave, so everyone can't lie to me, right?"

Listening to the dispute between the two women, Xu You and Zhan Hong looked at each other and smiled, Zhan Hong turned sideways and said, "Qilang, please!" ”

"Please!"

Xu You walked into the cave and found that it was deep and strange, moist and cool, and it should be a good place to cool off, but now it was the middle of winter, and he was caught off guard, and he was excited by the air conditioner, and suddenly sneezed loudly.

"Ouch!"

"Qingzhi, beware!"

There was a plop, it seemed that someone had fallen into the water, Xu You escaped and looked out, there was a hole in the hole not far from the left, and only one person was allowed to pass sideways at the connected place, revealing a bit of mystery and excitement. I didn't have time to think about it, I walked two steps quickly, and just arrived at the entrance of the cave, and was about to turn sideways, but I saw that there was also a person on the opposite side who wanted to come out.

The two of them were huddled in the cave, almost touching each other, the man was dressed in a blue wide-sleeved robe, he could not see the man or woman, and he wore a black curtain fence on his head, which covered his face, but the hand on the mountain wall, slender as jade, almost perfect.
