192 Mountains to find the source of the stream

Jiang Xian naturally held her hand and said, "I won't say goodbye today, tomorrow it's time to go back and make amends to the teacher." ”

"And when are you going to take a break again?" Of course, Shen Wangxin knew that as Zhou Yanchang's personal disciple, his schoolwork was naturally heavier than that of ordinary students in Hanshan Academy.

Last time, Jiang Xian said that she would take a day off, but she stayed in Sanhuai Hall for more than ten days, and she couldn't explain it to Zhou Yanchang, this time she couldn't drag him and delay his schoolwork.

As soon as she asked, she laughed at herself, hooked the corners of her mouth and said, "I'll go to the academy to see you when I'm free!" ”

Jiang Xian touched her head and said, "Okay." ”

Since Shen Wangxin was an injured person, Jiang Xian couldn't pull her to talk, so he walked around the verandah of Sanhuai Hall, and when he walked back to the original point, he sent her back to the courtyard, so that she could no longer see medical skills at night and rest early.

Shen Wangxin didn't agree, the two said a few more words, and then she bolted the courtyard door and went to the bath room to take a hot bath.

Early the next morning, Shen Wangxin got up to send Jiang Xian, went back to the room to make up for sleep, and when he got up, he saw Qi Changan sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun. The rocking chair he had placed in the side hall was carried by him into the courtyard, basking in the sun, the rocking chair was still swaying gently, and his face was covered with a book that Yukyu had read to him.

Shen Wangxin has also read this book, the popular script during the Hui Emperor period, which is all stories of case solving, called "Chen Gong Case". It was originally a complete set, and the one on Qi Chang'an's face was the first one, called "True and False Buddha".

Shen Wangxin also saw it when he first came, it is said to be adapted from a real case, and the plot has ups and downs, which looks quite interesting.

In order to read this set of books, Shen Wangxin spent nearly half a month at night, and after reading it, he has completely become a supporter of this set of books. Whenever someone says something bad in front of her, she has to fight for reason.

Xu heard her footsteps, Qi Changan took off the book on his face, opened his eyes and looked at Shen Wangxin, but his eyes were squinted by the sun, like a cat that was comfortable in the sun, and was lazily coiling his body on the rocking chair.

"I heard you got up early, why did you go back to sleep?" Qi Changan is a young man after all, and the age of Agarwood and Yuxiang is too young, even if he is accompanied by them, he feels a little bored.

Shen Wangxin smiled and pointed to the book in his hand and asked, "You like this book too?" ”

Qi Changan smiled and said, "I've read it many times since I became literate, and because I like this one the most, I borrowed it from Yuuka and read it a few times." ”

The two started talking about the book "True and False Buddhas".

After just a few sentences, Shen Wangxin found that his views were unexpectedly the same as Qi Changan's, and even the favorite words and sentences in the book were the same. Although the two haven't known each other for long, they are like friends for many years, and every word and sentence can tell each other's thoughts.

Shen Wangxin saw that he was always sitting and lying on a rocking chair like this, and it was not a problem, so he proposed: "I told Uncle Zhang that I would go to the mountain today to see the spring water of the source of the stream, and you should follow us too." ”

Qi Changan agreed without thinking about it, but he wore all the valuable brocade clothes, and he usually looked good in them. But when you get to the mountains, it is not very useful, but it is not conducive to walking the mountain road.

Shen Wangxin borrowed a set of clothes from Chen Xian for him, but he didn't expect him to be just right after putting them on. The thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy has grown extremely tall, half a head taller than Shen Wangxin, and in another year, maybe even Chen Xian won't be able to catch up with him.

Although he was wearing Chen Xian's clothes, he didn't look like a peasant boy. If Jiang Xian wore Chen Xian's clothes back then, his temperament was very dusty. Then, Qi Changan put on his clothes, but he still couldn't take off his luxury.

According to Aunt Shen, she was born to be rich.

Since this trip was going to take more than half a day, Shen Wangxin brought some dry food and water at home, and took Qi Changan with him to meet with Uncle Zhang, and the three of them went up the mountain along the mountain road next to Wubu River.

After a winter, the vegetation on the mountain came back to life.

The last time Shen Wangxin went up the mountain, he happened to meet Mrs. Yuan. At that time, she remembered that the forest was full of dead branches and leaves, and there were not many herbs that could be collected.

But this time, the mountain is full of birds and flowers, and many dead trees on the side of the road have grown mushrooms of different colors. Although Shen Wangxin recognized medicinal materials, he was not good at distinguishing whether these mushrooms were poisonous or not, but Uncle Zhang was more experienced and picked a lot of mushrooms and put them in the back basket behind him.

The three of them stopped and walked, but they took in the scenery of the mountain.

The road I walked this time was not much the same as the last time, mainly along the flow path of Wubu Creek. The further upstream the stream became, the smaller it became, and seeing the creek getting narrower, Shen Wangxin knew that the source of the stream was about to arrive.

"The proprietor is right, and you will be there any further." Uncle Zhang nodded with a smile, left the artificially carved mountain road with a wooden branch that he picked up casually, and got into a bush of arrows and bamboos.

Shen Wangxin called Qi Chang'an, and the two of them also went into the bamboo bushes. There are a lot of thumb-sized bamboo shoots growing in this forest, and from some fresh traces, it seems that people have come here to pick bamboo shoots not long ago.

The three of them slowed down, drilled around in the tunnel-like arrow bamboo bushes, and finally got out of this bamboo. Immediately after, a sudden brightness opened up in front of them, and a waterhole appeared in front of them.

Shen Wangxin glanced at the waterhole, and then understood why Uncle Zhang took them to drill the bamboo bushes. It turned out that as soon as there was a spring flowing down next to the pool, a three-zhang high stone wall suddenly appeared.

The stone wall is like a knife and axe splitting vertically, and the wall mountain is covered with slippery moss. Standing above the stone wall, you can see the source of this stream, and the two tributaries under the mountain, merging into the gurgling Wubu River, and finally rushing out of this forest to flow downstream.

Although it is said to be the source of the stream, the amount of water here is not much, and it occupies the name of a stream source, and it can only be said that this is the farthest place where the water of Wubu Creek can be traced.

Shen Wangxin raised his eyes and saw that there were several stone piers erected in the middle of the stream near the stone wall. They stood on one side of the stone pier, and on the other side there was still a bush of arrows and bamboos, which had also been drilled out of the way, and they did not know where it led.
