Mrs. Zhang Wenjun rested overnight in Wu County, early in the morning of the 26th, when the cart and more than ten entourages, together with Chen Cao's line of more than 20 ox carts, the convoy was mighty, passing through Wuxi, Jinling, Danyang, and arrived at Jurong County, Danyang County in the afternoon of the ninth day of February, Jurong County is more than 100 miles away from Jiankang, at this time it is only three moments, it is still early from dark, if you step up and go again, then you can enter Jiankang City before dusk tomorrow, but Mrs. 6 ordered the convoy to rest in Jurong, and set off again tomorrow, this road is sunny and rainy, and the road is always hard, Now that it is not far from Jiankang City, you should take a good rest, so that you will not look too tired when you enter Jiankang, and Mrs. 6 has other considerations

Famous scholars, great painters Zhang Mo and Chen Caozhi walked together for more than 20 days, during the day while walking while enjoying the scenery of Wuzhong Mountain and River, at night to help the pen to paint, and Chen Caozhi to learn painting skills, or drink tea, talk about Xuan, listen to music, Go, get along very happily, and the more time passes, the more I feel that Chen Caozhi's talent is like a sea, the weak crown can have such knowledge Zhang Mo has not seen the second, and Chen Cao's style and speech are also very moving, sitting and talking at night, do not forget this book

6 Mrs. Zhang Wenjun also has the same feeling as her brother Zhang Mo, and Chen Caozhi's conversation is like sitting on the spring breeze, Chen Caozhi will also cook tea by hand, this kind of tea that is said to be Ge Hong's hand-planted fragrance is timeless and has a long aftertaste

The largest inn in Jurong County was contracted by the 6 government stewards who came here one day earlier, rewarded more money, cleaned up, and welcomed the 6 ladies to move in.

At dusk that day, after dinner, Zhang Mo came to talk with Chen Caozhi about metaphysical painting as usual, and tasted the fragrant tea cooked by Chen Caozhi by the way.

Chen Caozhi and others lived on the ground floor, Mrs. was on the second floor, Chen Caozhi and Zhang Mo followed the maid upstairs together, and came to Mrs. 6's big guest room, the room furnishings were replaced by the servants of the 6 family, and the sleeping utensils were brought from Wu County, Mrs. 6 was not used to the bed of the inn, and even the reed mat on the ground had to be used with the Huating reed mat she was familiar with, which seemed too luxurious to outsiders, but for Zhang Wenjun, who was born in the Zhang family of Wu County and married to a husband who was also a top door valve, he didn't feel that there was anything too much to ask for comfort.

Zhang Mo asked, "What's the matter with my sister?" ”

Mrs. 6 smiled and said: "There is nothing else, I just want to taste the tea, I used to ride the car easy chest dizziness, sleep is not good, these days according to the Cao Zhi said, drink a cup of honey before going to bed, taste a cup of Gexian tea at night, this road of six hundred miles is refreshing, do not feel the pain of the trek, this is really thanks to the Caozhi." ”

Chen Caozhi said: "It is the luck of the younger generation to be able to share the worries of the wife. ”

A servant had already gone and brought a small charcoal stove. Chen Caozhi is nothing. Just wait for the water to boil in the black pottery teapot. At the beginning of the boiling water, there was a slight sound like a fish's eyes. Wait a while, and its edge is like a spring. This is where the teapot is lifted. The water is poured into the celadon tea cup that has been placed in the tea field for a long time. Close the lid. The lid has a small hole in the weather of the month. In the cold of the night, you can clearly see the thin white air rising from the small holes. Immediately, there was a faint fragrance of tea

6. Mrs. watched Chen Caozhi quietly, and her skillful movements were full of beauty. Black as lacquer, eyes like bright stars, temperament as warm as jade. Smile like a spring breeze. I couldn't help but think: "For the 6 family." The marriage with the Qian Tang Chen family is indeed detrimental to the reputation. But for Wei Rui. It should be a blessing to be able to marry such a beautiful man. And he thought: "The career path is clear." It is not a person who succumbs to the inferior. Whether you enter Xifu or go to Yangzhou. It is not impossible to be promoted to a high-ranking official in the future. On the other hand, the younger generation of the 6 clan. There are no outstanding children. The second uncle 6 began to be an official residence and five soldiers. bit high weight. But the temperament is too rigid. offended a lot of Nandu clans. It is said that Huan Wen was very dissatisfied. The 6 clan is the leader of the Jiangdong clan. Just barely patient. Therefore, the 6 clan is not as stable as Mount Tai. Since ancient times, no family has been prosperous and powerful. If you enter the West Mansion and become Huan Wen's confidant. Then Wei Rui's marriage to Cao Zhi is not without any benefit to the 6 clan."

Zhang Mo took a sip of tea. Praise: "Good tea." The tea art of the place of operation is also going to be famous and healthy with painting skills and Xuan talk this time. Sima Da Situ is very good at drinking tea. Every day off. Situ's mansion is full of celebrities. The tea is steaming and the tail is waving. When the face is red and the ears are red, and the mouth is dry. Tasting a good tea is really a fairy land. It's not much better than taking five stone powders. ”

6 The lady took a sip of the teacup. I wiped my lips with a silk handkerchief. said, "it." Would you like to spend a day in Jurong tomorrow? ”

Chen Caoyi understood when he heard it. 6 Mrs. did not want to enter Jiankang with him. Anyway, everyone along the way knows about it. He's taking a break now. Let Mrs. 6 and Zhang Andao enter the city first. Mrs. 6 is also good to confess in front of 6 Shi. so as not to set up conflict. He immediately nodded and said, "Yes." it. ”

Mrs. 6 nodded approvingly. said: "Cao Zhi said that Jiangling Lake has: vegetables and fish. : Dishes are available in March and April. Fish are available all the time. If nothing else is delayed. On the fifteenth of this month, I will go to Jiangling Lake for a spring tour. By the way, see if there are any fish, um. Liu Shang, a fellow villager in the place of, is Zuo Min's Shangshu Mansion Shuzuo, right? ”

Chen Caozhi responded: "Yes, Shangwei is my friend." ”

6 Mrs. did not speak again, but slowly tasted tea and listened to Zhang Mo and Chen Caozhi discuss paintings.

……

The next day, Mrs. 6 and Zhang Andao left Jurong for Jiankang, the largest inn in Jurong County was suddenly empty, only Chen Caozhi, Chen Shang, Ran Sheng, Xiaochan, Lai Zhen and other ten people.

On this day, the weather is sunny, the spring is bright, Chen Caozhi wants to visit, he knows that there are two mountains in Jurong that are very famous, one is Maoshan Mountain, Maoshan is known as the first blessed land of Taoism, the eighth cave sky; The second is Baohua Mountain, it is a famous Buddhist mountain, there are four wonders of "the beauty of the forest, the beauty of the peaks, the depth of the caves, the rise of the haze", of course, there is no name of Baohua Mountain now, the locals are called Huashan, because in the middle of summer, all kinds of wild flowers are all over the mountain, bright as Xia Jin, so it is called Huashan.

Chen Caozhi's previous life visited Maoshan after a thousand years, Baohua Mountain has not been there, so he wants to take advantage of this day's leisure to visit Baohua Mountain, the third brother Chen Shang felt a cold a few days ago, and it was better in the past two days, so he stayed in the inn to recuperate.

Coming to Zhen driving, Chen Caozhi and Ran Sheng and Xiaochan three people go to Baohua Mountain Baohua Mountain is ten miles north of Jurong City, east of the iron urn, west control of Jinling, south of the negative sentence song, north of the river, there are thirty-six peaks, like the blooming lotus flower is beautiful and special, although the fame of Huashan in the Jin Dynasty is not as loud as Maoshan, but the beauty of the scenery is more than Maoshan.

When I arrived at Dehua Mountain, it was already noon, the spring sun was shining, and the spring flowers were splendid, which was really a good scene.

Lai Zhen and the ox cart stayed at the bottom of the mountain, Chen Caozhi traveled with Ran Sheng and Xiaochan, and Ran Sheng smiled: "The young lady is still at the foot of the mountain."

Okay, wait until you can't walk, but no one will carry you down the mountain. ”

Xiaochan glared at Ran Sheng: "Just ask you to carry me." ”

Ran Sheng smiled: "I don't dare." ”

The little face flushed, and he changed the topic and said, "Hey, what flowers are so fragrant?" ”

Chen Caozhi was contemplating it and said: "It seems to be a white magnolia, but the white orchid jade is not so fragrant, this kind of fragrance is not greasy, refreshing, it is really the best." ”

The three of them didn't swim, and followed the fragrance of flowers all the way to see what kind of flowers they were?

Turn a hillside, see thatched house three, a big white horse tied under a grandson tree in front of the thatched house, there are five or six flower trees on the slope behind the thatched house, more than two zhang high dry light gray, the branches obliquely stretch upwards and the flowers are divided into two colors, the white one is like mutton fat and beautiful jade is like a beautiful jade smeared with rouge, very beautiful wind blows, and the fragrance of flowers bursts.

Chen Caozhi said: "It should be a kind of magnolia, I don't know what variety it is?" It's a rarity. I thought, "S loves flowers, if you know that there is this alien species, you will come to see it." ”

Ran Sheng said: "Xiao Langjun, why don't we dig one and send it to 6 little ladies?" ”

Before the words fell, I heard someone in the hut say: "Vulgar, vulgar things, when you see good things in the world, you want to move them to your own home, which is really insulting to such famous flowers." ”

Ran Shengyue was pleased, and said loudly: "Who are you talking about!" We dig up flowers and trees, and we don't burn them as firewood, but appreciate them and cultivate them carefully, do you understand? ”

Ran Sheng's voice was loud, the people in the hut were silent, and after a while, a person walked out, with a bald head and a ring scar, but it was a monk, this monk was in his twenties, quite tall, only slightly shorter than Chen Caozhi, who was seven feet four inches tall, but his appearance was very ugly, his forehead was convex and his mouth was upturned, his ears were popular, his nose was short, and his middle was long, but his eyes were clear and bright

Zhang Chao Youyun, a Qing man: "The appearance is ugly and appreciable, and although it is not ugly, it is not enough to look at; The text is incomprehensible and cute, and although it is passable, it is extremely disgusting. "The ugly monk in front of him is ugly and impressive.

The young ugly monk saw Ran Sheng, who was eight feet tall, standing majestically in front of the hut like an iron tower, and was taken aback and said, "What a big man! He glanced at Chen Cao again and praised: "What a handsome man!" ”

Chen Caozhi said: "Xiaojie is young and rude, and Taoists are not strange. "The monks of the Jin Dynasty can also be called Taoists.

The ugly monk Heshi returned the salute and said: "Little monk Zhifa Han, is Tan Yue really here to dig up this treasure pearl magnolia?" ”

Chen Caozhi said: "It turns out that this flower is called Baozhu Magnolia. He smiled and said: "No, just looking for a fragrance to come here, flowers and trees can not be transplanted arbitrarily, I don't know their habits, rash transplantation, is to harm the nature of flowers and trees, flowers and trees often die." ”

The ugly monk Zhi Fahan's eyes lit up, and he slapped his hands and said: "Wonderful words, Tan Yue is an elegant person, dare to ask the name of the honorable surname?" ”

Chen Caozhi: "Qian Tang Chen Caozhi." ”

Zhi Fahan's eyes widened, he looked Chen Caozhi up and down, and said with a smile: "Jiang Zuowei, his name is well deserved. ”

At this time, an old man and two teenage boys came out of the hut, and when the two boys saw Ran Sheng, they stuck out their tongues and exclaimed, this is the first time they have seen such an elder.

The old man said to Chen Caozhi: "The honorable guest is also visiting Baozhu Magnolia, please come in and drink a bowl of tea to rest." ”

Chen Caozhi said: "Dare to ask the old man, can this jewel magnolia be transplanted?" If there is a sapling, please give one. ”

Lao shook his head and said: "You can't transplant it, the treasure pearl magnolia can only live in the area of Huashan, and transplanting elsewhere will soon wither." ”

Chen Caozhi said: "I see, don't dare to disturb the old man, I'll just look at the flowers and trees." ”

The ugly monk Zhi Fahan accompanied Chen Caozhi to the thatched hut to watch the treasure pearl magnolia, saying that he was ordered by the teacher to visit the treasure place suitable for building a Buddhist temple in this left near here, and asked who his respected teacher was? He replied, "Zhi Daolin." ”

Chen Caozhi's eyebrows shrugged, the reputation of Zhi Daolin can be described as thunderous, Zhi Daolin's common surname is Guan, because the master is the Yuezhi of the Western Regions, the disciple is from the teacher's surname, so he changed his surname to Zhi, the name of the law is Zhi Dun, the number Daolin, intensive study of Buddhism, is one of the six masters of Prajna Learning, known as Zhi Gong, twenty-five years old monk monk, twenty-six years old into Jiankang, famous for Qing Tan Xuan debate, Taiyuan Wang praised its "micro work does not reduce the auxiliary heir", the auxiliary heir is Wang Bi, is the metaphysical leader of the first year, and Chen Jun Yin Rong praised Zhi Daolin is Wei reincarnation, although Zhi Daolin is a monk, But pay attention to manners, have the habit of celebrities, and the exchanges are also Liu Hui, Yin Hao, Xu Xun, Sun Sui, Wang Xizhi, Xie An These celebrities, good at Lishu and Zhang Cao, his clear talk to help the Buddha into the Tao, few people who can argue with him, originally lived in the >Xizhishan Temple, at the invitation of King Langya, Sima Yu, the great Situ Sima Yu settled in Jiankang Dong'an Temple, to talk about the "Prajna Tao Sutra", the Taoist customs, the court and the field are satisfied, the Qing Tan Yaji of the Situ Mansion is also often invited to participate in the branch Daolin, the branch Daolin said Zhuangzi, the famous people on the seat take turns to argue, no one is its opponent, the people of the time sighed that the branch Daolin is wearing a robe Wang Bi or He Yan

The sun shadow slanted westward, Chen Cao's master and servant three embarked on the way home, the ugly monk Zhi Fahan went to the Gongsun tree and led the big white horse and Chen Cao down the mountain, Ran Sheng said enviously: "The monk also rides a horse, tsk, strange!" ”

Zhi Fahan's eyes rolled and said: "Why can't the monk ride a horse!" My teacher raised several horses, and some people criticized that it was inappropriate for my family to raise horses. Someone once sent a pair of big cranes to my teacher, and my teacher flew away with the cranes, saying, 'The things that soar to the sky are rather the play of the ears and eyes!' ’”

Ran Sheng said: "The crane can fly, why can't the horse give it away!" The monk rode a horse, looking too awkward, how about this horse for me"

Chen Caozhi reprimanded: "Xiao Sheng, don't have many mouths. ”

Zhi Fahan laughed, first asked Ran Sheng's age, learned that he was only sixteen years old, and exclaimed: "This is a natural general, it is right to ride a horse, but there is no reason to give it away in vain, the little monk has long heard that Qian Tang Chen Cao has penetrated the three teachings of Confucianism, Xuan, and Shi, and has long wanted to understand it.

"What if you lose?" Ran Sheng asked hurriedly.

Zhi Fahan smiled: "It's not good, just laugh and disperse." ”

Chen Caozhi said: "I never gamble with others. ”

Ran Sheng looked at Chen Caozhi with blank eyes, he really liked this big white horse very much, as soon as he saw his energetic appearance, he felt that his blood was boiling.

Chen Caozhi ignored Ran Sheng's pleading gaze, waved his big sleeves, and calmly descended the mountain.

The ugly monk Zhi Fahan followed Chen Caozhi to the Jurong County Inn, and seemed to be unable to argue.
