Volume 1 Across rivers and lakes, involving temples Chapter 1 Nameless Town

Next Chapter

Huaguo, Annan Road, Anhuai County, at the foot of Dayu Mountain, a small town is located here!

The name of the town is Nameless Town, which is named after a passing Taoist. Legend has it that at the beginning of the town, because the weather was not beautiful, there was no rain all year round, there was a drought, and the world was undecided, and the flames of various countries were endless, and there were refugees fleeing in all directions. A group of refugees fled here, and Mr. Teacher, who had done a good job in the village, suggested that everyone should take root at the foot of this Dayu Mountain, just because there are mountains, rivers and woods, and you can't starve!

At first, they just cut down trees and rebuilt their homes. But as time went on, more and more refugees fled here, and the small area became disorganized, and some people even fought over building houses and grabbing land.

Until one day, an old Taoist priest in a blue coat and long shirt lived here. Seeing this uneven house, he immediately found Mr. Jiaoshu and said: "If you want to take root here, why not plan and plan, find a few people with high moral integrity and culture, divide the land according to the population, build neat houses, divide the village and govern it, and combine many villages into a town." When everyone heard this, it made sense, and arranged for the old Taoist to live in a vacant house and take care of him, and then found someone to discuss.

A day later, according to the suggestion of the old Taoist, the people set up a town in each town and village of Annam Province, and the town was divided into three villages, one village was divided into three principles, and one reason was composed of 50 households. The town mayor, village head, and Lizheng were elected separately, and they were managed at all levels, each performing its own duties. Mr. Teaching then asked the blue-clothed old Taoist to nominate the town, and the old Taoist said: "In this troubled world, what is the difference between being famous and nameless", and the tunnel is called a nameless town! Then the mayor took Mr. Jiaoshu to the county government of Anhuai County for the record.

The county magistrate of Anhuai County, looking at the sprinkled application, asked: "Who came up with this name, it's a bit interesting." ”

Mr. Teaching lowered his head: "Lord Hui County, is an old Taoist who has traveled all over the world, and he has now left." Of course, he would never dare to say the old words.

"It's a nameless town, and only after the official is enlightened by the Daofu Lord, the Daofu Lord will report to the cabinet for a resolution before the town can be set up and a village can be established, you can go home and wait."

"Thank you," the two bowed their heads.

Gyeonggi-do, a bustling capital city, was home to the imperial power and dignitaries. In the imperial city, Anhua Palace, the cabinet, and the second assistant Raisi looked at the concert presented by the Annan Provincial Government, "It's good that there are more than 400 more households." When he saw the word refugee on the chapter, he immediately put pen to paper, ordering the county government of Anhuai County to allocate grain seeds to ensure the harvest of the nameless town!

There are three villages in Wuming Town, the east village is called Lijia Village, the west village is called Wangjia Village, and a small village in the middle is called Xiaoyu Village. The name is mostly because of the surname Li and Wang, and no one in the small village in the middle can convince who is called, and in the end, the name given by Mr. Teaching comes from Dayu Mountain!

At noon, Xiaoyu Village runs from west to east on a dirt road. A well-dressed young man was walking slowly with a bunch of small branches, his head bowed, as if thinking about some unfathomable question of life - what to eat at noon!

The boy is seventeen years old, his name is Ye Chen, and his neighbors call him Chenzi. On the way to escape nine years ago, my parents died due to illness and had no money for medical treatment, so I fled here with everyone.

Ye Chen usually loves to be active and kind to others, and when he sees the elderly, he will greet the older ones first, and he will tease those who are younger than him. No matter how old or young, Ye Chen will naturally smile when he sees him. If you have nothing to do, you can help your neighbors do some trivial things, although you don't have your parents around, but your neighbors take good care of him. A thatched house in his house usually needs to be repaired, and the uncles and aunts also spare no effort. Whenever it's time to eat, there will always be kind uncles and aunts who send him some food. In this regard, Ye Chen is also happy to see it, so he will do more things for everyone when he is fine, and it is precisely because of this that everyone in the village treats him well.

When he was a child, he didn't have his parents by his side, and Ye Chen was not afraid, because he was surrounded by uncles and aunts who took good care of him. At night, there are big children who come to sleep with him in his thatched house, of course, because Ye Chen is afraid that he can't sleep at night. Ye Chen also knew that this was the people in the village taking care of themselves. Since then, Ye Chen has had the idea of repaying the whole village.

In the past, the village chief always said, Chenzi, you kid is smart, I will send you to school in the city of Annan Province when I have the chance, not only will you eat well there, maybe you can also take the test or something, don't let everyone down when the time comes! Every time Ye Chen heard the village chief say this, he smiled and nodded, but never expressed his position. I don't know what he thinks in his heart, but he never sees any movement from the village chief, and everyone is talking and playing as the village chief. After all, they all fled, so how do you know the people outside the mountains?

But it's strange to say, the villagers always see Ye Chen running around the village intentionally or unintentionally, and he runs several laps at a time. When an uncle or aunt sees it, they will ask, "Chenzi, what are you running?" Ye Chen didn't answer much every time, just smiled wryly, and then continued to run, I'm afraid Ye Chen alone knew the reason.

On the path, Ye Chen was walking, and he heard someone behind him shouting: "Chenzi, you haven't eaten, come to the house for dinner." ”

"No, Auntie, I'll just go home and eat whatever I want", a bright smile immediately appeared on the harmless face of humans and animals.

"Stinky boy, do you still dislike your aunt's craftsmanship? After a while, the firewood is put down and come over, today you Uncle Chen caught a big black fish, I stewed the soup, fragrant. As she spoke, the woman gestured how big it was, for fear that Ye Chen would not know.

Ye Chen scratched his head and said, "Let Bingzi drink more, I won't go"

The aunt smiled: "There are more, a few more people are enough, and there are fragrant tortillas, go and put them down!" ”

"Auntie, wait a minute, I'll be here in a moment!" Before he finished speaking, Ye Chen pulled his legs and ran home. On the way to Uncle Chen's house, I kept swallowing my saliva, thinking that I hadn't seen meat for almost a month, and I had to eat a full meal. Thinking about it, a sincere smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

Uncle Chen's house, Ye Chen held the broken bowl, biting a little black and crunchy corn tortilla, while sucking the black fish soup, the smile on his face couldn't be contained, not to mention how happy he was!

Uncle Chen looked at Ye Chen's eating appearance, and he couldn't stop smiling, with a proud smile on his face, thinking that he had to catch a few Ming'er for everyone to try. The aunt said while eating that she should slow down and be full. They looked at Chenzi with the same pity as they did their own sons. Looking at his son's eating appearance again, he was the same as Ye Chen, and his smile deepened.

Uncle Chen's son is called Chen Bing, one year younger than Ye Chen, and he usually likes to play with Ye Chen when he is not alive at home, because he thinks that Chenzi always has strange ideas, and he can always make their group of friends have a lot of fun, and sometimes they forget to go home for dinner, so they have to be called by his mother!

Ye Chen felt that Chen Bingren was good and had no bad intentions. Don't be angry when you say anything, and you will give half of what you have to eat, so if you usually have any fun, you will call Chen Bing to play together. So since they came here nine years ago, the two have been playing together, like one person.

In this simple town, everyone likes to sit under a big locust tree at the entrance of Xiaoyu Village after eating, talking, interjecting widows, and chatting about Zhang's family, Li Jiaxiao. Although the town is not big, there are many topics to talk about after tea and dinner.

After eating, as usual, Ye Chen took Chen Bing and a few other slightly smaller playmates out for a walk, greeted everyone he saw, and asked, "Have you eaten?" ”

Walking and walking to the foot of Dayu Mountain, looking at Dayu Mountain, Ye Chen was thoughtful, and only after half a sound did he speak, "Bingzi, let's climb Dayu Mountain, how about eliminating food?" ”

Chen Bing: "Chenzi, you are full of food!" ”

Ye Chen glared at Chen Bing: "I heard Uncle Li say a few days ago that there are a lot of wild fruits in Dayu Mountain, let's go pick some and distribute them to everyone." ”

Chen Bing's eyes widened: "If you have something to eat, don't you say it earlier!" ”

"Look at your breath!" Ye Chen scolded with a smile

With that, the group rushed to the mountain! A few small ones were panting halfway through and shouted: "Brother Chenzi, we can't climb anymore, you and Brother Bingzi help us pick some."

Ye Chen and Chen Bing looked confused: "I feel that you stinky boys are here to cheer for the two of us!" After saying that, he rushed up the mountain with a disdainful expression, and only the laughter of those stinky boys was left behind him!

Dayu Mountain, in a year, is immersed in the embrace of clouds and mist for more than half of the time. The faint clouds and mist, the turbulent surging, the sea of smoke for thousands of miles, make the thousands of springs and ten thousand valleys of Dayu Mountain hidden in the illusion. The brightness of the clouds, the softness of the clouds, and the fluttering of the clouds make Dayu Mountain present a sense of beauty in stillness and movement, and also turn it into a palace of dreamy art.

They sang all the way, I don't know if they took the wrong road, and they didn't see the wild fruits in Uncle Li's mouth, but fortunately, the two of them usually do farm work, and Ye Chen often runs, and his body is not as weak as the sons and daughters of some big families in Annan Province. While walking, while admiring the beauty of this Dayu Mountain, the two of them did not feel tired, it seemed that the wild fruits and everything were left behind, and some were just the fairyland-like beauty in front of them.

Walking and walking, almost two hours passed. However, more than ten meters down from the top of Dayu Mountain, Ye Chen pulled Chen Bingmao in a bush, motionless, staring straight ahead with his four eyes. A small wooden house is shrouded in a thin mist, surrounded by green grass and green forests, and the green forest is like the sea.

"What a mountain idyll!"

"Yes, I haven't heard from the people in the village in the past few years that there are people living on the mountain", Chen Bing continued: "Chenzi, this can't be the place where the old boy and the little young woman in our town have an affair!" ”

Ye Chen raised his hand and knocked on Chen Bing's head: "What are you thinking about every day in your head, cheating on the top of this mountain?" That's a good fit."

"It's also huh," Chen Bing said stupidly.

"Chenzi, we won't meet any worldly masters, right?" Chen Bing muttered again.

"Bingzi, I don't know if he is a master in the world, but he must be the same as us, he has to farm." Ye Chen patted Chen Bing and pointed to the vegetable garden in front of the cabin.

"You two little ones are from Nameless Town?" A muffled voice came from behind the two.
