Chapter 32: King Qian's Shooting Tide (Four Watches)

The morning light is like fire, and the tide is like a flood. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A huge, raging muddy wave was mercilessly slapping against the embankment that stretched for miles on the riverbank. And the waves crashed on the shore again, rolling up a wall of waves that were a foot high.

It stands to reason that such a huge river tide should make people uneasy and frightened. However, the people near the Qiantang River did not show the slightest fear of this turbulence.

But whoever passes by this embankment can at most look back at the overflowing tide. What's more, he even climbed the embankment, opened his hands, and used his body to make an intimate contact with the muddy yellow waves.

In fact, the turbulence of the tide of the Qiantang River is just to scare and scare those foreign tourists. And for this river, which is almost a small tide every three days and a big tide on five days, the people here have long been surprised.

According to historical records, the flood of the Qianjiang River has been monstrous since ancient times. The farmland on both sides of the river has also been trampled by floods countless times, and not only that, but this flood will take many people's lives every year.

The situation did not improve until after the death of the Tang Dynasty, when there were five dynasties and ten kingdoms.

Legend has it that after Qian Biao, the king of Wuyue Kingdom, heard that the flood of the Qianjiang River had caused the people to live in poverty, he led 10,000 soldiers to shoot 40,000 arrows at the angry waves on the day of the flooding of the river, until the tide was quelled.

And since then, although there have been waves, the water of the Qianjiang River has not harmed the people.

It is also since then that the people of Wuyue, that is, the people of Hangzhou, are full of gratitude to the descendants of the Qian family.

It has been more than 600 years since King Qian shot the tide, but the incense of the Qian family is under the blessing of the ancestors, and it is becoming more and more prosperous.

Qian Yuan, the house where the descendants of King Qian lived, although it is not the most prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River, but it is the most respected place.

Legend has it that the Qian family can do this difficult thing for the imperial court. And this difficult thing to do, his Qian family can also do it.

Over time, this also made the position of the Qian family in Hangzhou more important.

The Qian family compound, the gate sits in the south and faces north, facing the Qiantang River. In the compound, although there is a tall top floor, the roof structure is different. The main courtyard is a tiled house with eaves, and the side courtyard is a bungalow with a square brick roof. The roofs of each courtyard are connected by a walkway, which is convenient for the clan guards to patrol the courtyard at night.

And in the middle of this money courtyard, the structure of this roof. It not only reflects the hierarchy of the building, but most importantly, it shows the ethical dignity and order.

。。。。。

In the early morning, the light rain of last night washed away the dust of the past, and also brought some joyful news to some people in this money courtyard.

I saw that in the courtyard of the Qian family at this time, in a small room, there was a middle-aged man with beautiful clothes but a sad brow, who was looking at a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy.

"Yi'er, the patriarch ordered you to go south with your aunt this time, you have to seize this opportunity. All of us in this branch can only rely on you."

In fact, in the entire Qian Courtyard, there are many side courtyards similar to this place, but in fact, there are not many.

Because if you are talking about this family that has been inherited for more than 600 years, these side courtyards are of course much less.

But for people of the same rank in the same clan, there are many such side courtyards.

The Qian family has had rules since ancient times. However, those who have cultivated to achieve the first grade can be admitted to the side hospital. And only when the cultivation reaches the second grade, can you have the opportunity to live in the main courtyard.

"Daddy, please rest assured, the child should work hard and break through the second grade as soon as possible." The young man's tone was very calm. His eyes were very firm, without the slightest childishness.

I don't know if it's because I've lived in the courtyard for too long, and I don't know if it's because I've seen too many people insult my father. Therefore, at a young age, he has learned to forbear.

"Yi'er, you are a martial arts wizard that our entire Qian family has rarely encountered in a hundred years. If you break through the second grade, then we still have grandparents, and we don't have to be angry here anymore." The middle-aged man's emotions were a little excited, a little sad. But his heart was firm, because he knew that he had given birth to a good son.

Just when the two were chatting, a young but cute little girl ran in in a hurry and said, "Master, master..... people have come."

When the man saw this, he immediately got up, straightened his clothes, and then said, "Yi'er, let's go, go see your aunt."

When he had finished speaking, he was seen walking towards the outside of the house.

However, what he didn't realize was that the good son in his eyes was behind him, and the little girl with a shy face was in love.

…..

A moment later, the three of them had arrived in the courtyard of the side courtyard. And first of all, it wasn't the bright flowers or green leaves that caught their eyes. For there was a man standing in the middle of the courtyard with his back to them.

And in the legends of the rivers and lakes, as long as there is a place where she is, even if a hundred flowers bloom, it is not as good as her looking back and smiling.

A pale pink dress, long and swaying to the ground, the thin waist is restrained by a cloud belt, which shows a grip that does not show a hand, and a Qibao coral hairpin in the hair, reflecting the face like a hibiscus.

"Cousin, it's been a long time since we two brothers and sisters have seen each other." The three of them had arrived, and the middle-aged man spoke to the familiar and unfamiliar back in front of him.

When the beautiful woman heard this, she turned around and turned back.

Suddenly, the powder swelled in the wind, bringing a burst of aroma. Although she is the cousin of this middle-aged man and the aunt of this young man, she is only in her early twenties at this time, and she has just reached the flowering season.

But the woman didn't look at the middle-aged man, his cousin. She just looked at the young man and said calmly, "The patriarch ordered you to go south with me at noon tomorrow."

Her voice is very light and soft, which makes people listen to it and is very comfortable.

The young man bowed and saluted.

"Yes, Auntie".

He didn't dare to say a word more, nor did he dare to look at the other party more.

He knew that the beautiful aunt in front of him was not an empty vase.

Because, the young party already has the cultivation of the second-grade lower realm.

Finally, unexpectedly, the beautiful woman did not say a word, but after humming, she turned and left.

Only the father and son were left, standing awkwardly in place.

And looking at this distant back, the middle-aged man's heart was very emotional.

He and his father, that is, the grandfather of the young man, because of their limited talent, are still on the first grade, and they have not been able to step into the second grade, so naturally they can only live in this side courtyard.

He remembered that night twenty years ago, after the entire Qian family learned the news of the death of their youngest patriarch, everyone's faces were stunned.

Although his father and the patriarch were brothers, the martial arts talents of the two were very different.

And this dead patriarch, who was his father's own brother, was also his cousin's biological father.

Since then, his father has adopted his younger brother's daughter and is responsible for teaching.

Now, her cousin has already broken through the second grade, and she has a pivotal position in the Qian family.

And she, naturally, moved out of this low-class courtyard.

Her name is Qian Qianxue, she is recognized as the first beauty in the world on the rivers and lakes, the person with whom everyone hopes to spend a good night, and the lover of all the young people of the Qian family.

It's just that among these young people, this young man is not included, Qian Yi.

Because it was his own aunt, because he also had attachment in his heart.
