Chapter 63 The number of days for green ants to drink and talk
Liu Kan originally didn't believe in physiognomy, qi numbers, such a vague and ethereal thing.
But when he came to this world and transferred his soul to a dead person, the values that were inherent in him collapsed all at once.
Even such a bizarre thing as crossing the soul can be born, and those statements of physiognomy seem to be reasonable.
"Mr. Cheng, what is the number of lives and meteorology you are talking about?"
Cheng Miao smiled, "This is a very illusory thing, how can it be explained clearly in one sentence?" Let's put it this way, Lao Tzu's five thousand words: Tao is Tao, very Tao...... Probably the closest explanation. Don't be nervous, I'm just saying it casually, just listen to it. From your weather, you shouldn't exist, but you are. ”
Is it real?
Liu Kan was also confused at this time!
Some things are like this, and when you don't say it, it's just fine, but once you say it, there will always be thoughts of one kind or another.
originally thought he was quite real, but Cheng Miao's words made him feel unreal!
"Then my life ......"
Cheng Miao said: "Dong Weng, what do you want to ask, the little old man knows." With only one word, what do you think your life will look like? ”
The sound was not loud, but it was like a thunderbolt exploding in Liu Kan's ears.
I wonder what my life is?
This is also the first time that Liu Kan has seriously thought about this issue since he came to this world. Before, he just wanted to ask for a peace so that his wife and friends could live a good life. To this end, he has indeed made a lot of efforts.
But what about the ultimate goal?
Liu Kan never thought about it. Did you come to this world just to live a good life?
If it was just like this, he wouldn't have had to do things in his previous life that in the eyes of ordinary people, only a madman would do. In this world, no matter how good he is, how can he compare to the glamorous and drunken life he had in his previous life?
Leaning on the carriage, Liu Kan unconsciously curled up in a ball, clasped his hands together, and fell into deep thought.
The baby on the side was not talking, driving leisurely in the drizzle. The sound of horses' hooves is melodious.
******
For six days, the atmosphere of the journey was very dreary.
On the seventh day, there was a sudden snowflake. It's not big, but it's very disturbing, and the temperature becomes extremely cold overnight.
"Brother Akan!"
In the past few days, because Liu Kan was in a low mood, Guan Ying didn't bother him much.
But seeing that it was starting to snow, he couldn't sit still, "It's Zhang County in front, should we take a rest in Zhang County?" ”
"Ah, rest? Why take a break? ”
Guan Ying looked at Liu Kan helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "It's cold early this year...... You see, on this day, it's only September, and it's snowing. And looking at it like this, the snow will not be small, and there are many inconveniences in rushing on heavy snowy days. And we need to add something. ”
"Hmm!"
Liu Kan came back to his senses and raised his head to look at the sky.
It was gloomy and dark clouds rolling.
The ancient trees on the side of the road have long since withered, and at this time there are snowflakes hanging on them, although they are beautiful and moving, but at the same time they reveal a sense of slaughter.
"Then let's take a break in Zhang County."
The baby answered, raised the horsewhip, and drove straight to Zhang County.
The snow gradually became heavier, and by 10 o'clock at noon, it had turned into a goose-feather snow, and dust was falling one after another.
Zhang County is in sight!
This is not a very large county seat, and the area is only a little larger than Pei County.
Located in the lower reaches of the river, on a plain made of silt and sediment, two more days to the north, you can see the gushing river.
The city is two feet high and built of rammed earth.
There are more than 10,000 households in the county, with a population of less than 50,000......
The carriage drove into the gate of Zhangxian County, and because of the cold weather, the doormen did not bother to interrogate one by one, so they entered the city smoothly.
After settling down in an inn in the south corner of the city, Liu Kan entered the room alone.
Guan Ying smiled bitterly: "Sir, Brother Akan, this is ...... It seems that your words that day are still working to this day. ”
"Not necessarily! I looked as if he was thinking about something else, and he didn't necessarily really believe my nonsense that day. ”
Guan Ying hesitated for a moment, "Or, you can talk to him again." ”
Cheng Miao nodded, picked up two pots of Huadiao wine from the car, and asked Guan Ying to move a small Ding stove down, and entered the guest room one after the other. Liu Kan was sitting in the middle of the room, wiping the Wushan sword with a coarse cloth. Look at his serious appearance, as if nothing can disturb him.
The baby was not instigated, and ran to the store to ask for some charcoal, and a bucket of black things.
"What is this?"
Cheng Miao looked at the contents of the bucket strangely, and couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know!" Guan Ying said: "When I went to the store just now, the owner sold it to me, saying that it was called Shi Ni, and carbon is a use, which can be burned for heating. I saw that he also used this thing, and it was not too expensive, so I bought a barrel. ”
"How much money?"
"This bucket is ten dollars in total."
As he spoke, he set up the bronze furnace, lit the fire, put in a few pieces of charcoal, and put the stone into it. A very pungent smell came, which made Liu Kan, who was wiping his sword, frown, raised his head and looked over, "What a big smell of gas!" ”
"What is the smell of gas?"
The baby asked blankly, "But this smell is really not good...... Mr. Cheng, please open that window. ”
Liu Kan put his sword into the sheath at this time and walked over.
When he saw the stone in the barrel, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and said in surprise: "These coals ...... Where did you get that? ”
"It's not coal, it's stone!"
Guan Ying corrected very seriously: "The store sold it to me, it's very cheap." I'm thinking about using it to drink warm sake. ”
Shi Nirvana?
This is clearly coal! With only that pungent smell, Liu Kan can be sure that this black stone is the briquette of later generations. Unexpectedly, in this era, coal has already begun to be used? This is a very surprising development.
However, since you use briquettes, you need to keep the room ventilated.
Liu Kan helped Cheng Miao push open the window, and the wind swept into the room wrapped in snowflakes.
The fire was blazing, the water in the clay pot was also boiling, and the Huadiao wine in the wine pot exuded an intoxicating aroma, and Cheng Miao couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Green ant mash new wine, red clay small stove!"
Cheng Miao looked at the layer of green foam on the liquor, and couldn't help but praise softly, "Dong Weng's poem is indeed appropriate." ”
"Huh?" Liu Kanqi said: "How did Mr. Cheng know this poem? Hehe, at that time, because of this poem, I was also reprimanded by Lao Tang. ”
"Poetry is born from the heart, where are there so many rules? In the five hundred years of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Feng Yasong has long since collapsed, and the ancient poems have also been lost. The Master did not write the Book of Songs to make any restrictions, but to correct the ancient rites and music, but later generations misunderstood.
Dong Weng's poem is used for this situation and this scene, which could not be more appropriate.
Oh, there is good wine today, which can help the fun. Snow outside the window, green ant red furnace. Wouldn't it be nice to get together with three or five friends? ”
The infant spirit shook a chill, "Brother Kan, Mr. Cheng is going crazy." ”
Liu Kan smiled and said, "You guy, you are very beautiful...... If you want snow in the evening, can you drink a glass of nothing? I salute you, sir! ”
"I respect you too!" How could the baby miss this opportunity to drink, and picked up the wine cup with a smile.
The three of them shared the heavy snow flying outside the window, Cheng Miao had a south wind, and Liu Kan had a song. The two pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and the baby was on the side.
After three rounds of drinking, Cheng Miao suddenly said: "Dong Weng, have you ever thought about your life?" ”
The stamina of this flower carving is quite large, and the warm wine adds to the wine. Liu Kan was already smoky, and when he heard Cheng Miao's inquiry, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Sir, my life is up to me, not to God!"
When Cheng Miao heard this, he was stunned at first, and then laughed out loud.
"Dong Weng's words are very good, when the floating is a big white, when the floating is a big white!"
And the baby next to him showed a strange expression, "Ah Kan, although my life is up to me, I have to know the number of days." ”
"The number of days? What are the days? ”
Liu Kan couldn't help laughing, "Mr. also said, I don't exist, what does the number of days have to do with me?" I am the number of days, and the number of days is me. ”
With Liu Kan's cautious temperament, he would never be able to say such words when he was sober.
It is also this drunken gaffe, and he has lost the same caution as before. When Cheng Miao heard this, he couldn't help but shudder.
His eyes turned and fell on the baby.
But when he saw him, his expression was solemn, he looked at Liu Kan very seriously, and after a long time, he raised the wine cup, "Brother Ah Kan, I respect you!" ”
