In the territory of Yue country, there are many mountains and hills, many rivers, and beautiful scenery, which makes people forget to return all the way.

On this day, Ji Ran was walking on a mountain path, and suddenly, a pleasant singing voice came: "Tonight, what a night, the boat is in the middle of the stream." Today, I have to be in the same boat with the prince. Shame is good, not shameful. The heart was annoyed and unstoppable, and learned that the prince. The mountains have trees and branches, and the heart is pleasing to the king. "The voice is so sweet and beautiful that you can't help but stop and listen. Southern Vietnamese, although the tone is soft but the meaning of the words is difficult to understand, Ji Ran leaned against a big tree, slightly closed his eyes and carefully appreciated this beautiful but unaware of its meaning.

Suddenly, a coquettish voice shouted: "You ape, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you have come to hurt my sheep again." The tone was hurried, followed by a burst of "Ah! Yikes! Yikes! ”

I couldn't understand what the woman was saying, but I knew from her tone that something was in trouble. Barren mountains and mountains, a girl should not encounter any danger. Ji Ran toe a little tree trunk, like an arrow to the sound, in an instant through a forest, I saw a clearing in front of me, a group of white sheep grazing, but on the other side there are two groups of figures in a fierce battle, a green shadow, a white shadow, take a closer look, the green shadow is a young woman, a green bamboo in her hand, beckoning not to leave the white shadow of the vital point, and then look at the white shadow, but strange, it is a white hair ape of the same height as a person, the ape is human-like, holding a purple bamboo, While chattering and screaming, the two of them fought to the point of the woman. But looking closely, it surprised Ji Ran, this man and ape used a kind of swordsmanship in this battle, although it is not known, but this swordsmanship is wonderful, it is the most advanced swordsmanship that Ji Ran has seen in his life. Seeing that the woman was not in danger for the time being, he put his mind at ease and stood aside to watch carefully.

The white ape, who was fighting fiercely, suddenly saw a stranger breaking in, and immediately became angry, bared his teeth, and attacked with a rapid attack, repelling the woman, and then shook his body again, and stabbed at Ji Ran with the purple bamboo.

When the woman saw it, she was shocked, but she knew how powerful this white ape's purple bamboo was, and shouted coquettishly: "Ape man, don't hurt people!" "After that, you have to step forward to block it.

But it was too late, and the white ape's purple bamboo stabbed Ji Ran's throat. How could it be an ordinary person, seeing this white ape attacking, on the side of his body, his right palm slapped at the purple bamboo, and then his body shook and retreated three feet. Seeing that the blow could not be achieved, the white ape rushed again with a jump, and raised the sword style of the purple bamboo to split Huashan, and slashed Ji Ran, this Ji Ran did not wait for the white ape to come to his body, reached out and picked a leaf, and shot the leaf towards the white ape with a "whoosh", but the leaf was infused with strength by Ji Ran, piercing into the white ape's right arm holding the purple bamboo like a dagger.

The white ape was in pain, screamed strangely, threw down the purple bamboo and jumped onto the vines, and a few of them disappeared.

"Hey! Ape Male! The woman saw the white ape run away and shouted, but the white ape didn't pay attention, the woman looked at the direction of the white ape's departure and frowned and said, "The ape is injured, it seems that he won't play with me again for a long time in the future." ”

At this time, Ji Ran looked at the woman's appearance, sixteen or seventeen years old, her face was very delicate, her black hair was simply tied behind her head, and she was dressed in green clothes, which looked extraordinary. Clenched his fists and said: "In Xia Xin Jiran, I have seen Miss." ”

The woman was also looking at Ji Ran, this Ji Ran was handsome and straight, dressed in green clothes, polite and had her own temperament, and she saw that her skills were good, and she suddenly felt good. Seeing Ji Ran's gift, he also gave a blessing: "The little woman Ye Qing has seen the son." ”

It's really their own thing, Ji Ran didn't know what Ye Qing said, and Ye Qing didn't know what Ji Ran said, but he just looked at the actions and knew that the other party was introducing Shi Li.

After introducing each other, the two looked at each other, and then laughed. This language barrier, how to communicate? Since the language is not comprehensible, I will speak slowly and then use my hand to assist me, and the two communicate like this, and they don't know the time.

A breeze blew, Ye Qing brushed his hair with his slender hand, but found that the sun had set unconsciously, so he pointed to the sun embarrassedly: "Oh, I forgot the time when I spoke, it's getting late, and I should drive the sheep back." ”

When Ji Ran saw Ye Qing pointing to the sunset in the west, he understood what Ye Qing meant, and said with a smile: "It's not early, you should go back early." ”

That Ye Qing drove the sheep three steps and turned around, with a lovely smile on his face, walked for a while, and suddenly sang loudly, the song was really sung when the sheep were herding during the day, the tone of the song was brisk, and the green shadow gradually disappeared at the end of the path.

Ji Ran, who was standing there, looked at Ye Qing, listened to the beautiful singing, and smiled until Ye Qing's figure disappeared. Hehe smiled, sat on a bare stone, propped up one foot, one hand on his lap, thinking about the time he spent with Ye Qing during the day, and let out a few hehe smirks from time to time.

Ji Ran didn't have anywhere else to go, so he simply ate some dry food with him, found some wild fruits to eat, and didn't go anywhere else, found a tall tree, kicked it away, shook away the snakes and insects on the tree, sprinkled some insect repellent powder, stomped on the ground with both feet, and flew up the tree, which was ready to stay overnight on the tree.

With the chirping of birds, beasts and insects, as well as the sweet memories of the day, Ji Ran slept until dawn. He opened his eyes, turned over and jumped down from the tree, looked for a mountain spring water, washed himself, and then went to the wild fruit grove, picked many large, insect-free fruits, got the mountain spring water, washed them, found some large leaves and washed them, put the fruit on the leaves, and sat down on the stones.

The sun gradually rose, and the dew on the grass slowly dispersed. Ji Ran stood up and looked at the path, there was no one there, and gradually became a little anxious, with his head down, his hands staggered, pacing back and forth, stretching his neck from time to time to look at the path.

At this moment, a crisp song was heard in the distance, and the song was getting closer and closer, accompanied by the occasional "bleating" sheep cry. Ji Ran's heart was beating faster, and he wanted to run forward to greet him, but he was afraid of being abrupt. I had to stand there and wait for the sheep herder to come.

Ye Qing drove the sheep around a corner, his eyes were also looking forward, and when he saw Ji Ran standing in front of him looking at himself, the deer in his heart was jumping up, letting the sheep eat grass on his own, Ye Qing walked towards Ji Ran, and when he got closer, he pulled his clothes with his hands, lowered his head, his face was flushed, and he said in a low voice: "You came so early, are you waiting for me?" ”

Looking at the shy Ye Qing, Ji Ran's heartbeat also accelerated, and he wanted to hug him into his arms, but he was afraid of the abrupt beauty, so he stretched out his hand and took it back: "I spent the night here last night, and I have been waiting for you to come over." Behold, I have picked a great deal of fruit, and it has been washed, and I have set it for you to eat. ”

When Ye Qing saw it, his heart was very sweet, and he took the fruit handed over by Ji Ran and took a bite gently, full of fragrance and sweetness!

Seeing Ye Qing's lovely appearance, Ji Ran danced with joy in his heart, and couldn't help but pick up the purple bamboo dropped by the white ape, knocked on another bamboo, and made a "bangbang" sound, and couldn't help but sing: "Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the river island." My Fair Lady, Gentleman. Jagged wattles, left and right flowing. My Fair Lady, I covet it. I can't ask for it, but I can't think about it. Leisurely, tossing and turning. Jagged wattles, picked left and right. My Fair Lady, Friends of the Piano. Jagged wattle, left and right. My Fair Lady, bells and drums. "The song is strong and loud, and I don't know where to drift through the bamboo forest.

Ye Qing listened to the song and was intoxicated, and when Ji Ran finished singing, he looked at him with his eyes: "Childe, what does this song mean, it sounds very good." ”

probably knew that Ye Qing was asking the meaning of this song, so Ji Ran spoke slowly.

In this way, the two communicated, familiar with each other's language. At noon, Ye Qing came early, brought some cooked food to Ji Ran, folded a few good artemisia stems, removed the skin to make chopsticks, and the two of them shared together, very happy.

In order to be able to communicate normally, the two started with simple words and exchanged words little by little. In this way, Ye Qing came to the bamboo forest on time every day to herd sheep, Ji Ran still stayed in the forest every night, and ate the food brought by Ye Qing together at noon, and the title also changed, Ye Qing directly called Ji Ran Brother Ji Ran, and Ji Ran called Ye Qing A Qing, so after more than two months, the two of them were rain or shine, and they dated in the south forest on time every day, and in terms of language, they gradually understood each other's meaning, and the content of the exchange was also enriched.

On the morning of this day, Ji Ran was still looking at the intersection and waiting for Ah Qing's arrival, and Ji Ran at this time did not see Ah Qing for a moment, as if every three autumns. Gradually, a green shadow appeared in the distance, and Ah Qing came, but this time it was different from the past, and there were fewer sheep. Ah Qing walked very slowly, Ji Ran hurriedly rushed forward, and asked softly, "Ah Qing, why don't you see the sheep today?" ”

Na A-Qing twisted and didn't speak, just grabbed the placket of his clothes.

"What's wrong? Ah Qing, could it be that the white ape hurt the sheep? ”

Ah Qing lowered his head and said nothing.

"It must be the white ape, Ah Qing, don't worry, wait for me to clean up the sheep that the white ape gave to avenge me." Ji Ran shouted, turned around and was about to go to the white ape, but he felt a pair of soft hands grasping him.

"No, it's not an ape." Ah Qing said softly, but her cheeks were a little red.

Ji Ran grabbed Ah Qing's hand, the pair of soft wattles were soft in his hand, which made people's hearts ripple. Ah Qing wanted to withdraw his hand, but was caught by Ji Ran and couldn't pull it back, and his face became more and more red.

"Ah Qing, what happened?" Ji Ran asked softly.

"Abba and Grandma found out about us, and they asked me to take you to meet them." Ah Qing said in a mosquito-like voice.

When Ji Ran heard this, he was surprised and delighted, he was surprised that he was traveling abroad this time, he had no preparation, and it was very rude to go to see him empty-handed, and he was so happy that Ah Qing's parents wanted to see him, and with his own talent, he would definitely persuade Ah Qing's parents to agree to the matter between himself and Ah Qing. It's not good to go empty-handed, what to bring? Looking at the mountains of bamboo, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, there is.

"Okay, Ah Qing, this is a good thing, it's just that I didn't bring any treasures with me when I came out this time, you wait a while, I'll do the same first, so that I can bring it to your parents and show my heart."

"A freshly made gift?" Ah Qing giggled when he heard this, "How can there be a reason to make a gift, besides, this mountain is full of stones or trees, how to do it?" ”

"Hehe, keep it secret for now, you wait a while, I'll do it soon." After speaking, Ji Ran took out a sword from his package, cut it for a while, and some bamboo pieces of the same size were formed, and then took local materials, found the wild thread hemp, took its wattle bark and kneaded it into a rope, and connected the bamboo pieces. He took out the pen and ink inkstone, sharpened the ink and waved the pen, and wrote on the bamboo slip.

When Ah Qing saw it, he stepped forward curiously, stood behind him and watched carefully, but saw the opening four "Tongxuan True Scriptures", with "Volume 7, Weiming" written below, and then the title "Wenzi" below. Then restart a column to open the text:

Lao Tzu said: The Tao can be weak, strong, soft, rigid, yin, yang, secluded, bright, can bud the world, and can be treated without a way. The shallow knowledge does not know the depth, the outside does not know the inside, the knowledge is coarse and the essence is not known, the knowledge is not known, the unknown is the knowing, who knows the knowledge is not known, and the unknown is the knowing! The Tao cannot be heard, smelled but not also, the Tao is not visible, seen but not also, the Tao cannot be spoken, words are not also, who knows the formless one! Therefore, "everyone in the world knows that what is good is good, and what is not good is not good!" Those who know do not speak, and those who speak do not know. ”

Wenzi asked: Can people talk slightly?

Lao Tzu said: Why not? Only knowledge is what it means! The husband knows what he says, and he does not use words. Those who fight for fish, those who chase beasts, are not happy, so they go to words, to go to, people who know shallowly, those who fight for the end, the husband "has a sect, there is a king, the husband is ignorant, and I don't know." ”

Wenzi asked: Is there a law for the country?

Lao Tzu said: The man who pulls the car today, call forward......

Thousands of words were sprinkled. After finishing writing, he put it in the sun for a while, and Ji Ran said to Ah Qing with a smile: "How about using this 'twilight' as a meeting gift?" I have completed the first few volumes, but it would have taken too long to finish them all. ”

That Ah Qing also knew a few words, and when he saw Ji Ran say this, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Brother Ji Ran, did you say that you summarized all these contents?" ”

"Yes, I've completed seven volumes." Ji Ran said with a smile.

When Ah Qing heard this, his eyes suddenly flashed with golden light, and he grabbed Ji Ran's arm and shouted: "Brother Ji Ran, you are amazing, you can be both literate and martial, Abba and Aunt will definitely like you when they see you, they like knowledgeable people the most!" ”
