Chapter 37: The Earth Spirit Man Speaks Gong Yi

"Sister, let's go eat." Ling'er proposed.

Come to a restaurant called "Crazy Thoughts".

After the sisters discussed, they ordered garlic noodles and sweet potato leafy cabbage corners.

Xiao Er glanced at the sword on the table, and asked tremblingly, "May I ask the guest officer, how many taels of noodles do you have?"

"Come on, you think we're very good at eating." Qingqing said gently.

Eating fragrant garlic noodles and crunchy sweet potato leafy vegetable corners, Ling'er couldn't help asking, "Sister, why do you like sweet potato leaves so much?"

"People in my hometown like to eat it the most, I read a book before and learned that sweet potato leaves have health care functions such as improving immunity, stopping bleeding, lowering blood sugar, detoxifying, and preventing night blindness. Regular consumption has the effect of preventing constipation, protecting eyesight, keeping the skin delicate, delaying aging, and some researchers have called it the queen of vegetables. "Materia Medica" also records that sweet potato leaves: "cool blood and invigorate blood, widen the stomach and intestines, relieve constipation, and go to stasis and dirty poison." "People with chronic constipation should eat it especially well, you can also use 250 grams of fresh sweet potato leaves, add oil, salt and stir-fry vegetables, eat it at one time, eat it once in the morning and once on an empty stomach, suitable for people with dry stools."

"So, are sweet potatoes good for health?" Ling'er continued to ask.

"Of course, as the folk proverb goes: 'If you have sweet potatoes in your meal, your face will be red.'"

I remember that the "Compendium of Materia Medica" and "Compendium of Materia Medica" and other ancient documents recorded that sweet potatoes have the effect of 'replenishing deficiency, invigorating qi, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and strengthening the kidney and yin', so that people can 'live long and reduce diseases'. It can also replenish the body, warm the stomach, and fatten the five organs. The contemporary "Chinese Materia Medica" says: "Sweet in taste and flat in nature." Return to the spleen and kidney meridians. ''Tonify and neutralize blood, invigorate qi and invigorate, widen the stomach and intestines, and relieve constipation. It is mainly used for the treatment of spleen deficiency and edema, sores and ulcers, poison, intestinal dryness and constipation. ’”

"No wonder you like it so much." Ling'er finally understood.

"This is called the dish should not be disguised, and it is also called 'great ingenuity.'" ”

"It's called 'Sister's Talent is Incomparable.'" Ling'er boasted naturally.

"You're not bad, either." Qingqing replied with a smile.

Subsequently, I came to an inn called "Persuading Jun to Live for a Long Time".

"Sister, do you want to help the boss change his name?"

"Okay, I'll go right away."

"Boss, your place is the birthplace of the great poet Du Fu, he once said: read more than 10,000 volumes, write like a god, people often say: read 10,000 books, travel 10,000 miles, it is better to rename your store 'thousands of books and thousands of roads'."

"Very good, the reader is different, thank you girl for the name, the girl is coming, I will give you the best price." An old man replied with a pleasant face.

"May I ask the boss, why is your place called 'Gongyi'?"

"Our county is named after 'mountains and rivers are jammed and consolidated', and it has been used for generations."

"Oh, I see, thank you boss." Qingqing thanked.

"Why is the air dry and uncomfortable to the nose?"

"Due to the obstruction of Taihang Mountain and Zhongtiao Mountain, the cold wave is not easy for people to invade."

"Girl, I guess you like to read Du Fu's poems very much?" The old man asked.

"yes, what do you have to say?"

"Girl, I have a book to give, called "Du Xianyan Collection".

"Dare to ask Mr., who is Du Xianyan?" Qingqing's face was confused.

"Introduction in the book: Du Xianyan is Du Fu's grandfather, he has several ups and downs in the court, and the official is a straight bachelor in the Xiuwen Museum. When he was young, he fused with Li Qiao, Su Wei, and Cui and was called the 'Four Friends of the Article'. is wild, often conceited by articles. His poems are not lacking in simple and natural masterpieces, known for their five rules, strict rhythm, and skillful skills, which have contributed to the maturity of rhythmic poetry, and are one of the founders of modern poetry in the Tang Dynasty. ”

"Thank you so much, sir, it seems that you really have to read ten thousand books, otherwise it would be really lonely!" Qingqing took the book excitedly.

After washing, the sisters sat down by the lantern and read carefully.

"Miscellaneous Lyrics. Concubine Thin Life": The grass is green and the long door is closed, and the moss is green and the alley is secluded. Spoil the new love and take it, and cry the old feelings. The birds are frightened and the dreams are broken, and the flying flowers stir up the sorrows. Self-pity spring, the fan returns to autumn. "Spring in Beijing": This year, I traveled to Qin alone, and I was worried about seeing spring rather than spring. The flowers in the forest garden are hairy, and the leaves in front of the fine willow camp are new. Gongzi Nanqiao should be happy, and the general will stay in the west. Message to Los Angeles Fengridao, next year's spring will be more than human. "Penglai Three Palaces Banquet Serving the End of Nanshan System": Beidou hangs on the edge of the city, and Nanshan leans in front of the palace. The cloud mark is golden, and the tree branch (sound is the same second) the jade hall hangs. The middle ridge is good air, and the middle peak is around the smoke. The minister holds the longevity and wears this Dai Yaotian for a long time. ”

"Where there is a grandfather, there must be a virtuous grandson." Qingqing exclaimed.

The sisters, sleepy, checked the guest room and slept sweetly and happily.

The next day, the old man told the two girls to sleep peacefully until about 9 o'clock, when they woke up.

In the inn, I enjoyed the steamed cabbage and the fried bun with sandwich saliva.

"I'd like to tell the girls two more stories that have been passed down from generation to generation, okay?"

"Of course it's wonderful, I'd like to hear about it." Qingqing said happily.

"The first is 'whirlwind to send bones', after Du Fu's death, his grandson Du Siye said goodbye to his family, and used his burden to carry his grandfather's bones and set off to return north. He came to the bank of the Yangtze River and prepared to cross the river without the boatman. After getting on the boat, he was found by the boatman and told him to get off the boat, otherwise he would throw his bones into the river. Heiye begged bitterly, indicating that this was Du Fu's skeleton. At this time, a wealthy son on the same boat, as soon as he heard that it was Du Fu's bones, he had evil intentions, wanting to kill the heir and steal the bones, so that he could show off himself in the future. So, he bought the boatman and prepared to push the heir into the river. When the boat crossed to the center of the river, Siye had already sensed the slightest movement, so he firmly carried his grandfather's skeleton on his back. When the wealthy son looked at him and the two boatmen were about to make a move, suddenly a whirlwind swept in, blowing the sky dark, the hull of the ship was violently bumpy, and the people on the boat stood uncertainly, only to hear the sound of 'plop', and the rich son fell into the river. The boatmen trembled with fear and hurriedly anchored the boat. But seeing that the whirlwind swept Du Siye into the air again, floated across the river, and landed on the shore safely. The boatmen watched Du Siye walk away into the distance with his skeleton on his back, all stunned and ashamed. The second is 'Hundred Birds Cave', Du Siye finally carried the bones of his grandfather Du Fu to Du Pre's tomb after dozens of days of arduous trekking. When the surrounding people heard that Du Fu's bones were returned to the city for burial, they were all very happy and came to give money and things one after another. There were a few Mr. Yin and Yang who came out to choose the acupoint, and the dispute continued, and they could not be buried for several days. One night, Siye was upset, so he lit incense in front of his grandfather's coffin. Suddenly felt tired, drowsy, and drowsy, and then the grandfather's voice came to his ears: "Don't worry about the inheritance, a hundred birds will fix the hole." When he woke up, he thought about the 'Hundred Birds Cave', and he was very happy, but he couldn't believe it.

The next morning, Du Siye hurried to the outside of the village to look, and suddenly a group of magpies flew over, and he was very excited. As the magpies flew away, to the south of the cemetery, in the middle of the two villages, the magpies landed under a red pomegranate tree, chirping incessantly. Du Siye thought that this was the 'Hundred Birds Cave', and called the villagers to dig a grave here.

Later, people will Du Pre, Note: Du Pre is Du Fu's thirteenth generation grandfather, a famous politician, military strategist and scholar in the Western Jin Dynasty, who has been a general, a county marquis and a school captain. After the success, pondering the scriptures, erudite and knowledgeable, many achievements, written books and said, known as "Du Wuku", the two villages before and after Du Fu's tomb were renamed the former Du Lou and the rear Du Lou, expressing the nostalgia for these two great figures.

"Thank you so much for the touching stories that Mr. Sir told us, like myths and folklore, but no matter what, they all express the poet's infinite admiration and love for this great patriotic poet." Qingqing sighed excitedly.
